Misperception that Seasonal Influenza Vaccine is Unnecessary
Most respondents rate the seasonal influenza vaccine's safety (70 percent) and effectiveness (57 percent) as "excellent" or "good." Additionally, more than two thirds (67 percent) say vaccination is important to staying healthy. Despite these positive feelings about seasonal vaccination, one-third of mothers still have no intention of having their children vaccinated this year, and another 10 percent say their decision about vaccination would vary for each child. The top reason they have not vaccinated annually, respondents say, is that they think the vaccine is unnecessary, based on either of the following mistaken beliefs:
Another reason parents do not regularly have their children vaccinated for seasonal influenza is that they enjoy freedom of choice they do not have with required childhood vaccines. Slightly more than half (52 percent) say they did not have their children vaccinated for influenza annually because their pediatrician left the decision up to them.
"The survey highlights a tendency among these parents to rely on 'magical' or wishful thinking about seasonal influenza, rather than follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation that all children ages six months through 18 years be vaccinated." said Dr. Baker. "While it's encouraging that H1N1 has put seasonal influenza higher on parents' radar, the survey reveals the need for more disease education and for health care providers to emphasize to parents that immunization is the best

Evan Turner's Flaws
I truly was blessed this past season and postseason to have had the opportunity to closely cover college basketball's most decorated player in Ohio State's Evan Turner.
"His Royal Smoothness" as we like to call him, won the Wooden, the Naismith and pretty much every other national college basketball player of the year award. We all know how good he is; he'll likely be the first or second guy picked in the
2010 NBA Draft
after Kentucky's John Wall goes first overall.
We've already heard all about his many strengths. He could very well be the next Scottie Pippen. But he's still far from perfect. As transcendent as his game seems at times, there are still some flaws.
At times his appearance on the court is less than ideal. And it has nothing to do with the fact that he sounds like Kermit the Frog, or looks like a dinosaur. I've even heard these opinions expressed working for THE Ohio State University. During the tournament's first weekend his body language and overall composure were less than ideal.
A reporter questioned his collegiate coach Thad Matta about this. He answered by deflecting and changing the topic. "I thought that there was a couple of things that were happening. I was trying to get changed as well. But he's just got to keep the composure and keep playing through it...Nobody pays attention to his defense. He did a tremendous job defending us well tonight and really using his length off their stack actions," Matta said.
I had some off-the-record conversations with the teams that Ohio State eliminated in the NCAAs, and members of the opposing coaching staffs basically told me they were disappointed in how Turner looked in real time when compared against how he looked on film. They were disappointed in his demeanor, how they perceived his maturity, and how he acted on the court given his prestigious stature as a player.
And when opponents got physical with him, he didn't seem to react well. Turner got rattled quite a bit during the first game of the NCAA Tournament, a blowout win over UC-Santa Barbara. And in the Big Ten Tournament, the trash-talking Illini got in his head and under his skin. Here's a
I shot of him in the locker room after the game. He's voicing his frustration over the Illinois "front-runners."
Of course, polarization is just the nature of the beast when you're a big star. Turner has a lot of BFFs among big-time college basketball stars, but he's also so hated by opponents that his teammates call him "The Villain."
In March, I actually got tired of coaches and announcers making the "he almost had a quadruple double, if you count the turnovers" joke every time Turner got a triple double, or close to it. The joke eventually got more annoying and played out than "Flo" and her Progressive insurance advertisements.
During March Madness a reporter questioned Matta about Turner's tendency to turn the ball over, and again he deflected the question without really answering.
"I love him being out there - a lot of times just for the defense. I think everybody only watches him on offense. But he gets his hands on so many balls and 6-7 with his wing span, he was challenging shots at 24 feet that you really don't notice. And then when that thing goes up, a lot of times he's coming up with the rebound, and he does a great job in that regard," Matta responded.
Of course in the grand scheme of things, his turnovers are not that big of a deal because he's going to be playing the three in the NBA. He only played the point at Ohio State because they had absolutely no other options. Their best alternative was P.J. Hill for crying out loud. Of course, in the NBA the small forward position is to talented athletes what Elisabeth Hasselbeck is to sounding idiotic, so "His Royal Smoothness" will have some TOUGH matchups on his hands when he gets into the league.
But when you look at his entire upside, his turnovers aren't really the end of the world. Matta summed it up best following the Buckeyes' final victory of the season; a second-round defeat over Georgia Tech in which Turner had 24 points, 9 rebounds and also nine of his team's 18 turnovers.
"As long as he gets me 24 and 9 and 9, I'll leave with it. Obviously, we'd like it to cut down. In that type of situation we're going to put the ball in his hands a lot and he's going to make decisions... I thought when the time was needed, he delivered for us," Matta said.

By Michael DavisMcDonough resident Lynn Wenner has always been a little skeptical when it comes to getting forms in the mail. And she has tried to impart that skepticism to her mother, Julia Morgan, 87, of Morrow. But it seems some aren't so savvy when it comes to identifying the best deals on prescription drugs. "If they are having to get a lot of medication, they're very open to any kind of mailout they'll jump at it," said Wenner, herself 65 and co-chairwoman of a Henry-based senior citizens' watchdog group. Wenner at present doesn't have to take a lot of expensive prescription medication, but at 87, her mother gets dubious mailings regularly. "I sort of look at everything with a question mark," Wenner said. "But I have to warn my mother all the time." But GeorgiaCares, the state's health insurance assistance program, says that not everyone is so skeptical when it comes to shopping for the best deals in the confusing discount drug market and that's where seniors can be taken for a ride. "Some companies have begun charging a fee for providing information on free or low-cost prescription programs ... to people who do not have insurance coverage for prescriptions," according to a warning released recently by the agency. Lisa Federico, an insurance counselor with GeorgiaCares, said at least one Georgia senior has fallen prey to a scam to charge a fee for information on free and reduced-cost drug programs offered by pharmaceutical companies. "She's paid out over $500 to this company to do what we can do at GeorgiaCares for free," she said. Many major pharmaceutical companies offer discount programs to the poor and uninsured. If a patient qualifies, and has a letter from their doctor, the patient can receive their medication through a patient assistance program. But information on those programs is offered for free. "It seems that she paid the company to research these patient assistance programs and they just mailed her out these applications," Federico said. For example, drug maker Pfizer offers several patient assistance programs specifically tailored to a number of its more popular prescription drugs. The metro Area Agency on Aging, which encompasses the 10-county Atlanta Regional Commission region, receives and average of 1,300 calls per month to the State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), Federico said. "We are just really here to help people navigate through what can be a confusing system for an older adult," she said. A new initiative expected to be launched on Tuesday would provide everyone in the region with usable drug information, said Grace Trimble, a spokeswoman for ARC. Teaming up with Consumers Union, which publishes the popular Consumer Reports magazine, the ARC's Area Agency on Aging is launching a Best Buy Drugs campaign that will provide comparative drug information, complete with price details, they hope will arm consumers with the knowledge they need to have informed conversations with their doctors about what drug will work best at what cost. "Many times patients, because they don't have health coverage, never get their prescriptions filled," Trimble said. Because doctors are sometimes not as cost-conscious as their patients, they may prescribe an expensive medication when a cheaper one would work as well, she said. "This is a program essentially to help (uninsured) consumers compare the cost of drugs," Trimble said.

Left without a viable business model after the launch of the Symbian Foundation, UIQ has been shut down by its owners, Sony Ericsson and Motorola
Nokia is to buy out Symbian and set up a new open-source platform with Motorola, Sony Ericsson and NTT DoCoMo, forming a major rival to Google's Android
The show formerly known as 3GSM is always a busy one, with many mobile and telecoms companies competing with each other to make the biggest splash
Symbian, Sony Ericsson and Motorola claim they are confident Nokia's acquisition of Trolltech will leave them unscathed, despite analyst suggestions to the contrary.
It is a well known fact that Nokia leads the converged device/smartphone market throughout the world, as confirmed by recent IDC and Canalys reports. In fact, as of the 4th quarter of 2006, Nokia had about 50% of the worldwide market share in converged devices. RIM and Motorola were in second and third with the majority of the Motorola devices being Linux based devices selling in Asia. The IDC report then had Sharp and Panasonic (Linux) in 4th and 5th, while Canalys showed Palm and Sony Ericsson. The second through 5th place vendors shown each have something from 5 to 8 percent of the market share, but there is a catch all vendor labeled Others that has 23.5 percent (IDC) or 24.3 percent (Canalys). Who are these Others and where are all the Windows Mobile devices?
The Swedish handset maker has bought the Symbian user interface company UIQ that its parent company Ericsson set up in 1998
or·thog·o·nal:Adj.[from mathematics] Mutually independent; well separated; sometimes, irrelevantto. Used in a generalization of its mathematical meaning to describe setsof primitives or capabilities that, like a vector basis in geometry, spanthe entire `capability space' of the system and are in some sense non-overlappingor mutually independent. For example, in architectures such as the PDP-11or VAX where all or nearly all registers can be used interchangeably inany role with respect to any instruction, the register set is said to beorthogonal.Ah, the PDP-11 or VAX, such memories of room-sizedcomputers with monstorous gigabyte hard drives. Anyway.I used the word "orthogonal" today to describe the "innovationpack" planned for Lotus Notes and Domino in mid-2006. This isthe set of capabilites including a blog template, RSS feeds, and Noteson a USB key that were announced at Lotusphere. They're "orthogonal"because they are not a 7.1 or 7.5 release...in fact, no core code is disturbedat all. This is critical to those organizations who have testingrequirements in order to deploy a "new" piece of software. The"innovation pack" is separate from the core Notes/Domino codestream. Apparently, the "orthogonal"nature of this deliverable taught several people in the room a new SATword.Other notes from today's Lotusphere Comes to You in Chicago:- About 120 customers and partners attended. Speakers included KevinCavanaugh, Rob Ingram, David Marshak (demonstrating Sametime 7.5 live!),and Joe Linehan. - In my session on Notes/Domino directions, all of the attendees were onND6.x or 7. A number of Linux and iSeries customers represented,as well as some pSeries and Solaris. Oh yeah, there were Windowsusers, too. - Today was my first visit to the IBM offices at 71 S. Wacker, Chicago. This is the address that has been on my business card since August,but until today, I had never been there. Nice place, very sleek. The A/V equipment is first rate (except the wireless microphone setup). But now I can no longer point out that as a telecommuter, I've neverbeen to my own office. Though I still didn't go looking for wheremy snail mail is stored.
As I travel around to user groups and Notes/Domino7 launch events, I often ask the attendees at these events different profilequestions about Notes deployments. I ask about versions in use, Iask about use of instant mesaging, and I ask about server platforms.One interesting thing I've noticed inasking about server platforms in the last two or three months is that I'mnot drawing many hands for Sun Solaris. Among my (mostly American)audiences, Windows continues to be the server platform I see most frequently. iSeries and Linux tend to be the next two. And while I seethe other platforms with some frequency, I haven't seen a hand for Dominoon Sun Solaris at any meeting I've done in the last two or three months.Now, market watchers shouldn't necessarilyread anything into this. But I am kind of curious whether there isa reason for this lack of show. Since IBM sells a platform-agnosticlicense, it's sometimes hard to track how servers are deployed in the realworld. I know of a customer in the Netherlands that consolidated110 Windows servers down to two Sun Solaris boxes, so it's definitely deployed. I'm just wondering why I am not seeing more of it.
Sony Ericsson has joined Nokia in admitting that its Bluetooth phones could be vulnerable to a 'snarfing' attack, meaning that a hacker can access data even if the phone is not paired with another Bluetooth device
IBM, the loudest backer of the Linux operating system, plans to announce Monday that its business partners added more than 300 software packages in 2003 that run on a foundation of Big Blue's WebSphere e-commerce software and its iSeries midrange servers. Among the new software packages is S2 Systems' OpeN/2 software for processing electronic payment transactions.
Big Blue is set to release a new edition of its WebSphere business software for versions of Linux that run on its iSeries and pSeries servers, both of which use its Power4 chip.
Extended Systems, a Boise, Idaho-based company offering software that provides access to corporate data on mobile devices, said this week that Motorola will include Extended's technology on a new Linux-based cell phone. With the Motorola Deal, Extended Systems said its software will now be included on three of the top five cell phone makers; the others are Siemens and Sony Ericsson.
IBM's proprietary iSeries machines have had a makeover to become cheaper and more friendly to Windows and Linux. Will users buy it, though?
IBM's iSeries servers have had the biggest announcement since the line was launched. Will users stick with it now it is cheaper and more Linux-friendly?
NEW YORK--German Linux seller SuSE has deepened its partnership with IBM, the companies announced Tuesday at the LinuxWorld Conference and Expo here. The two companies will work to optimize SuSE's higher-end Enterprise Server product for IBM's four server lines. In addition, the companies said Thursday that the Enterprise Server product is available for IBM's iSeries special-purpose servers for mid-sized companies and for its pSeries Unix servers. SuSE has had a two-year partnership with IBM; all three of the companies using Linux on the mainframe that IBM trotted out to business partners at the show were using SuSE's version of Linux. --Stephen Shankland, Special to ZDNet News
Big Blue is calling out to Linux programmers in an effort to increase the number of programs available for its relatively unknown iSeries line of special-purpose servers.

- Architecture
Pfaueninsel Transportation
Getting to Pfaueninsel
To get to the island by public transport you catch a train S7 train from Berlin to Wannsee in the direction of Potsdam. Unless you fancy a long walk you have to catch a bus #218 from outside Wannsee Railway Station. The buses run once an hour and arrive at about 10 minutes to the hour. The island ferry is the last stop on the route. The ferry runs as and when required and costs 2 euros for the trip and entrance to the island, and 3 euro if you wish to visit the castle, during the summer months.
Pfaueninsel Favorites
Free roaming Peacocks
Favorite thing: The reason it has been called Peacock Island (Pfaueninsel) since 1795 is due to the 100 peacocks who are free to roam the island exactly the same as they were then.

"Making" money with open source
How do you make money with open-source software?
You don't, you save money!
(Some companies do make money but many more companies could save money). More companies are concerned with using software than selling software.
Iterating: for vs. while
I often see code like this (when using Java 1.4 or earlier):
Iterator i = list.iterator();
while(i.hasNext()) {
but I write that as:
for(Iterator i = list.iterator();i.hasNext();) {
* It shorter
* It keeps i in a smaller scope
* It reduces the chance of confusion. (Is "i" used outside the while?
Selecting by first letter should show as many as possible that start with that letter
When I am in a drop down list and I press a letter to jump to the first entry that starts with that letter why does it leave that entry on the bottom of the visible entries?
Case of static method names
I like to make my static method names start with an upper case letter. I know that isn't standard and that only class names are supposed to start with an upper case letter but I find that it is helpful because it quickly shows which methods are static. Also, I have never confused a static method with a class because the usage/syntax is different.
Better stack traces
ClassCastException didn't used to have a message but I noticed that now it has a message that includes the cast class and the object class. That extra info is very beneficial. (Note that only recently could I start using 1.5 in my main product so I am behind the times a bit.)
What other common Throwables need improved messages?
NullPointerException should have the name of the variable.
Who should write documentation?
Do developers write good product documentation? Is someone who knows a product inside and out the best person to document it?
Have you ever bought a product and you could obviously tell that the manual writer didn't speak the language natively?

Cheap stocks with upward potential
Women are better investors than men
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
The GuruFocus
52-week low screener
reveals that Idenix Pharmaceuticals (
) is at a 52-week low, with a low price of $3.32 (73.7% off its
$12.61 high). Two Guru investors
Steven Cohen
Seth Klarman
appear to value this stock, as they are holding on.
Today's IDIX share price is $3.33, down 63% over 12 months, and
down 34% since January.
Idenix Pharmaceuticals Inc. (
) competes with other pharmaceutical companies in developing and
launching new drugs that are effective in treating hepatitis and
HIV/AIDS. Idenix has discovered and developed "inhibitors" to
inhibit viral replication in the treatment of hepatitis B and C,
and HIV/AIDS.
IDIX is of special interest because of the FDA's new designation
of a "breakthrough" product category. Under this designation,
drug makers can now win approval for their new drugs after just a
single round of testing instead of three. This new designation
could help Idenix Pharmaceuticals Inc. and others sped up their
time to market in the highly competitive industry where the FDA
can stop the momentum of a drug product with its lengthy approval
Idenix Pharmaceuticals has a market cap of $446.1 million and
lists a P/B of 2, and P/S of 5.96. The company reported revenues
of $69.7 million for the full year 2012, compared to revenues of
$7 million a year prior.
As of quarter ending Dec. 31, 20120, SAC Capital Advisor's
founder Guru
Steven Cohen
last increased his IDIX position by 415.44% bringing his current
shares to 70,100.
Steven Cohen's holding history:
But the major IDIX stakeholder is Guru Seth Klarman of The
Baupost Group, who owns 24,740,200 shares.
Seth Klarman's holding history:
After being put on hold by the FDA in a long regulatory process,
Idenix Pharmaceuticals announced in February that it was taking a
different path. Ron Renaud, Idenix president and CEO, said,
"Although we are choosing not to continue our IDX184 and IDX19368
programs, we intend to maintain our strong presence in developing
nucleotide polymerase inhibitors for HCV based on our broad
discovery platform."
Renaud added that the company was pleased with the progress of
IDX719, another kind of inhibitor used in treating hepatitis C
virus. In January Idenix entered into a collaboration with
Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc. for the development of antiviral HCV
therapies incorporating IDX719.
Gurus who sold out their IDIX as of quarter ending Sept. 30,
2012, or later are Jean-Marie Eveillard, RS Investment Management
and Louis Moore Bacon.

Prepare youth with special needs for life-A A +A
Rated "A"
Wednesday, January 8, 2014
A READER who is a mom with a child with autism asked me what is the ILLC program all about.
I asked the same question years ago when my husband and I were thinking of what should we do next for my eldest son who was already in his teens and was only a few years away from adulthood. Most of the centers for individuals with autism in Davao City were focused on early intervention and my son's growing up needs were no longer being met. We had to search for a center with a program that would not only help our son cope with the challenges of growing up with autism spectrum disorder but also one that would alleviate our own fears of growing old and leaving our eldest son by himself during his adult years. Of course he has very loving siblings who would care for him, but even if our other children are supportive of their "kuya", they will sooner or later focus on their own families. Even if cousins and other relatives can always be counted upon for support in times of needs, our son has to learn to live independently and do his daily activities without being so much a burden to others. In other words, we have to prepare our son for life.
And so I went to Manila to observe the programs of some good schools and centers offering programs for individuals with ASD. The best program which I found very practical and effective was the program of Independent Living Learning Centre which was conceptualized by Professor Archie David. The tag line of ILLC speaks for itself and fits the hopes and aspirations of every parent for his or her child: "We prepare youth with special needs for life". When we were young parents, all we dreamt was to prepare our child for regular school. Looking back at our own experience, it is not enough that we focus on the academic development of the child with special needs. Yes, it is a bonus that our son can read and write and is able to talk a little, but what is important is that he is productive and he is able to be on his own.
What made us decide to establish the Independent Living Learning Centre in Davao City? The programs of ILLC are very practical and answer our question: "What will happen to our son in the future?" ILLC programs are divided into three: the Transition Education Program, the Job Readiness Program and the Work Placement Program. The ILLC programs aim to teach essential work behaviors and skills that are necessary for future vocational pursuits. Training is provided in simulated and actual work environments with the supervision of job coaches. The ILLC programs serve as a prelude to a work placement and assist the student in identifying possible employers and engaging in gainful work opportunities that match his skills and interests.
Some parents get discouraged when they feel that their child is not high functioning and therefore should stay at home without anything to do. This should not be the case. The ILLC programs help youth with special needs to achieve his potentials regardless of the level of functioning. As they say, we look at the abilities of the child and not on his disabilities.
The dream of many parents to give one's child a meaningful and productive life is also my dream for my son. This is what the ILLC program is all about. We are all one in preparing our children with special needs for life.
Jane Ann S. Gonzales is a mother of a youth with autism. She is an advocate/core member of the Autism Society Philippines and Directress of the Independent Living Learning Centre (ILLC) Davao, a centre for teenagers and adults with special needs.

But not much.
It's not a bad show, but if you're expecting it to be EPIC (and let's be honest here, you are), you will be disapointed.
I think part of the problem is that I'm watching this show coming off of DS9. I'm used to long story arcs, recurring guest characters, lots of development, and larger scale conflicts. So far, VOY hasn't had much of any of this. But then again, TNG wasn't usually this way either, and I absolutely loved it.
@You Will Fail: About Phage, the only thing that bothered me was Neelix after his lungs were removed. All of his banter throughout the episode got to be kind of annoying. And more importantly than that, it just wasn't an important episode with severe consequences. With the exception of a new alien species being introduced, this episode didn't have a large impact on the characters or the series as a whole. I suppose if you love Faces, then you're going to love Phage because that's the episode that introduced the Vidians (is that the name of the species?), but otherwise it wasn't an important episode.
Anyway, just my opinion. What is it that you loved so much about Phage?
More representative problems:
1. Neelix losing his lung - does this have ANY significance to the series? In fact is this even mentioned again in the series? I think the answer to both is "no." If a main character loses a lung, it should matter; maybe he needs special equipment to help his stamina during away missions, just something to communicate to the audience that what they've just seen actually matters and the writers aren't just throwing ideas out there with no regard for continuity.
Sometimes it felt like the Voyager writers were using the technique for writing Family Guy depicted in South Park... Namely, whales picking out random story ideas and just randomly interjecting them into the series.
2. As you say, TNG was actually very similar to VOY in structure, namely that these two are more closely constructed than DS9, yet, for most, TNG & DS9 were the superior series, why is this? My view is that TNG was so superior to VOY due to greater actors and characters as well as better writers on the whole... Ronald D. Moore has been mentioned. While TNG had contributions from Moore and Ira Steven Behr, VOY was left to Braga... Also, I haven't counted, but I think Michael Piller probably worked on more TNG shows than VOY.

I am having an issue after the last virus definition update that Enpoint is now calling out DSUpdate.exe as a Trojan.gen. I scanned it with a couple of online scanners and none of them called it out as being unsafe. It is the Dell Data Safe update application, and now no matter what I do I can't update the program, or put the exe file on the ignore list. Every time I put it on the ignore list, it still puts it in the quarantine folder. Any suggestions? I have also submitted the file to Symantec.

I have an abstract class
Reticule defined like so:
class Reticule : public Drawable, public Object {
//some irrelevant methods to the question
It is used for drawing targeting reticules, i.e. if I wanted a spell to have a circle or a conal AoE reticule, I would derive from the above class e.g:
class Circle : public Reticule {
Circle(float radius);
I have another class
World with 2 methods, one for registering something that is drawable and another that registers objects.
class World {
void registerDrawable(Drawable* drawable);
void registerObject(Object* object);
//other irrelevant methods
std::list<Drawable*> drawables_;
std::list<Object*> objects_;
These functions add the pointers to the associated containers. This allows objects in the world to interact with one another.
In my spell I am creating the reticule like so:
reticule_ = std::unique_ptr<Recitule>(new Circle(3.0f));
My problem is that, how am I meant to register the reticule to my
World class. It works to do this:
but that doesn't seem right to me as I defined
reticule_ as a unique pointer and I now have 2 more pointers pointing to it, they're just not of type
Should I not use an
unique_ptr? Do I change everything to
shared_ptr but then that doesn't make sense when adding a simple object to the world.

Importance of Preventive Flu Shots for Children and Their Contacts Underscored by Research Led by Cincinnati Children's and Presented at PAS
CINCINNATI, April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- The high costs of hospitalizing young children for influenza creates a significant economic burden in the United States, underscoring the importance of preventive flu shots for children and the people with whom they have regular contact, according to research led by Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and presented May 4 at the Pediatric Academic Society annual meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii.
After analyzing data in three U.S. cities over the course of three flu seasons (2003-2006), the researchers found that 90 percent of the highest-cost hospitalizations for children were linked to influenza, or flu with a co-infection of the respiratory tract. Children with the highest-cost visits were more likely to have high-risk conditions, emphasizing the importance of having these children immunized, said Gerry Fairbrother, Ph.D., a researcher in the Center for Clinical Effectiveness and Health Care Policy at Cincinnati Children's and senior author of the study.
Contributing most to the highest-cost hospitalizations were stays in the intensive care unit (ICU), with 65 percent of high-cost visits requiring ICU stays. Fifty-nine percent of children hospitalized for flu who also had high risk conditions spent time in the ICU, compared to 23 percent of children without high-risk conditions.
"Our study emphasizes the importance of ensuring that children and people they are in regular contact with be immunized for flu. It's vital to protect their health and to avoid the high costs of hospitalizations that are preventable," said Mary Staat, M.D., Ph.D., a physician and researcher in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Cincinnati Children's and study co-author.
In the study, researchers identified children under the age of 5 years

The truss bridge spanning the Delaware River at Skinners Falls, has been shut down.
PennDOT reported that the Route 1002 bridge was closing by the end of the day, Tuesday. No plan for repair has been determined. The bridge is located at Milanville, Damascus Township, connecting River Road with New York Route 97 on the other side.
The bridge, which dates to 1902, has steel spans and a timber deck. Karen Dussinger, PennDOT spokesperson, said that there is damage to a truss member which is difficult to repair. Closure was recommended following bridge inspection and a computer analysis of measurements taken.
"It's an inconvenience to the community but if its unsafe it has to be done," said Venessa Degori,an owner of the nearby Milanville General Store. She said it would hurt business and hopes it can be fixed by the summer. They receive a lot of business from Lander's Campgrounds across the river, she added.
On May 28, 2009, The New York-Pennsylvania Joint Interstate Bridge Commission approved capital construction and maintenance plans for 10 Upper Delaware River bridges. At that time, major rehabilitation was expected to be phased in, for the Skinners Falls Bridge.
Repair of truss members and abutments at the Skinners Falls Bridge was to get underway in 2010 under an estimated $200,000 contract. A second phase of full rehabilitation and painting was to take place in 2015 for $8 million.
A detour has been put in place on the Pennsylvania side,sending motorists north on Route 1004 (Damascus Road) to the village of Damascus at Route 371, and then over the Damascus Bridge to reach Route 97 at Cochecton, NY. One may also travel south on River Road to Route 652 and head over the bridge to Narrowsburg, NY.
The bridge is 470 feet long and carries a single lane of traffic. According to the Wayne County Historical Society, the bridge was constructed by the American Bridge Company and funded by the Milanville Bridge Company. The bridge replaced a ferry run by raftsman Daniel Skinner and his family. It is one of several bridges in Sullivan County that are on the National Register of Historic Places, including the Roebling Aqueduct and Pond Eddy Bridge. The span was a toll bridge until 1928.

Justin Moore's 'Outlaws Like Me' Album Goes Gold

Justin Moore has a new reason to tip a cold one back and celebrate after learning that his sophomore album, 'Outlaws Like Me,' has been certified gold for sales exceeding 500,000 copies.
Today, people of all ages are gearing up for the spooky holiday known as Halloween. While some may choose a funny or silly approach, others like to go for the fear factor when picking out their costume.
This Wednesday -- October 31 -- we celebrate the Halloween holiday nationwide. And some of country's hottest stars are especially excited for the day, as they'll get to relive their own childhoods through the eyes of their children.
Justin Moore has a standing position as one of country music's most-loved crooners, which is partially in thanks to his charming personality, but mostly due to the fact that he dishes out the kind of country music that people seem to gravitate toward. After a wild ride over the past couple of years with the release of big albums and No. 1 singles, plus opening up for some of country music's biggest names, Moore still has his eye on the prize.
Perhaps now we know why country stars like Eric Church always wear sunglasses. Justin Moore tells Taste of Country Nights radio host Jeremy Robinson that a recent radio station visit left him with an eye patch and temporary blindness in one eye.
We've been letting you know about the Outnumber Hunger program for the last couple weeks. This week Justin Moore has jumped on board to help out. By entering the special code you could provide 5 meals to a local family in need.
Justin Moore has become one of the most popular young stars in country music over the last year thanks in part to songs like 'Bait A Hook'. Many artists like to keep 'personal' and 'professional' separate and would not use family members in videos even though some have over the years.
Cleaver's Prime Sandwiches and Salads brings you another edition of the Country Whuppin'. Joanna Smith is on her way to possibly become the 3rd member of the Country Whuppin' Hall Of Fame. She picked up win number 4 against Kristen Kelly by a margin of 88%. Before she can enter the 5-win Hall, JoAnna must get past some real stiff competition in Justin Moore!
Some AWESOME concert tours are starting today. Check out who MAY make their way to ther Tri-State!!!
Justin Moore just made trip to Texas to watch his favorite team play in the Cotton Bowl, and now he's being charged of being a perv, and a bad diner at that...
Justin Moore just released his video for Bait A Hook. The video tells the classic tale of a man scorned/dumped and his feelings towards the NEW guy in his ladies life...
Justin Moore has posed for plenty of photos with his guitar , but this picture holding his new baby girl shows a different side of the country singer. Justin, wife Kate, 21-month-old daughter Ella Kole and baby Kennedy Faye posed for a super cute family picture.

Thanks for starting this. :)
An oldie but a goodie:
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.
I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes replies Watson.
And what do you deduce from that?
Watson ponders for a minute. Well,
- Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
- Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
- Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.
- Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
- Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe.
But what does it tell you, Holmes?
Holmes is silent for a moment.
Watson, you idiot! he says. Someone has stolen our tent!

Lady's in a gynecologist's office, with her feet up in the stirrups. Doctor says, "I don't mean to be rude, don't mean to be rude, but you've got the biggest hole I've ever seen, I've ever seen!"
She says, "Why did you say it twice?"
He says, "I didn't, I didn't"...
Re: The Joke Thread.
^ So she's a little brought down by this news, and goes home. Hubby's at work, so she is standing naked in front of the full-length mirror, trying to look up inside there to see how big this hole really is.
She can't quite get the angle on it, so she takes the mirror off the wall, puts it on the floor and straddles it, bent at the knees, peering down (and up) into herself.
Her husband walks in the door, briefcase and suit jacket in hand, and freezes. "Honey," he says, "just what in the world are you doing?"
A tad embarassed, she fumbles for an explanation. "Oh...I'm just doing some special stretching exercises."
He gestures towards the mirror. "Well, be careful you don't fall in that fuckin' hole!"
Thank you very much, you've been a great crowd! :0

Adolf Hitler, Karl Marx, and Albert Einstein all walked into the same bar at the same time in Vienna. They all sat at the same table side by side for hours on end looking at their shoes.

A man hears a voice in his head one day. The voice says: "Quit your job, take all your money, and go to Vegas." At first he ignores it, but the voice won't shut up. It just keeps saying the same thing, "Quit your job, take all your money, and go to Vegas."
So one day the guy can't take it anymore and listens. He does exactly what the voice says - he quits his job, takes all the money out of his bank account, and flies to Vegas.
As soon as he steps off the plane, the voice says "Go to Caesar's Palace." So he does.
"Make your way to the roulette table." The guy does that.
"Put all your money on red 17." The guy puts all his money on red 17.
The wheel spins...and comes up black 10.
The voice says, "Fuck."

Arrived at the station his wife knew better than having professor Whatshisname go and buy the tickets and therefore merely wanted him staying where he was so she told him: "Vaclav dear, keep an eye on our ten suitcases while I go and get the tickets."
Some minutes later when his wife returned with the tickets the professor asked her: "why did you say we had ten suitcases whwn there are clearly only nine?"
Quickly counting the luggage she turned to her husband and said: "You are wrong dear we do have ten suitcases!"
"No, no" the professor said, pointing to the suitcases "count them with me: zero, one, two, three...

A Texas business man, while in Japan for some business meetings and a few rounds of golf, arrived in Tokyo a day earlier than expected. Feeling lonely that evening, he employed the services of a beautiful young Japanese girl to be his companion for the evening. Although the Japanese girl spoke very little English and the businessman spoke no Japanese, their passion roared and in the heat of the moment she began yelling "Gama Su!, Gama Su!". Hearing this, the Texan knew he had pleased his female Japanese friend and soon afterward went to sleep.
The next day while playing golf with his Japanese business colleagues, one of his Japanese partners holed his shot from 170 yards away! Everyone went crazy and began yelling excitedly in Japanese. Wanting to impress his friends, the Texan joined in and began yelling, "Gama Su! Gama Su!"
Suddenly everyone became quiet. After a moment of silence, one of the Japanese men turned to him and asked "Wrong Hole? What do you mean Wrong Hole?"

Port St. Lucie Council approves route for Crosstown Parkway extension
PORT ST. LUCIE — City Council unanimously voted to approve a resolution Monday night to connect the Crosstown Parkway along West Virginia Drive to U.S. 1 and Village Green Drive.
The decision to choose a locally preferred alternative route for the extension bridge will now go to the Federal Highway Administration for approval, which is expected by December.
Councilman Jack Kelly, a longtime supporter of the Crosstown Parkway, said he was happy to see the next step completed in the decades-long project.
"For me to see this on the agenda is a huge milestone," Kelly said. "This has been something planned for 30 years or so and to move it anywhere else would be unfair."
The 2-mile extension bridge will connect Crosstown from Manth Lane to the east along West Virginia Drive west of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. It will cross Savannas Preserve State Park and the North Fork to the intersection of U.S. 1 and Village Green Drive to the east.
The extension route, labeled 1C, was one of seven route options, which also included an option not to build an extension.
The vote came after several public meetings and a recommendation from a group of expert consultants, city staff and representatives from the Florida Department of Transportation and the St. Lucie County Transportation Planning Organization.
Officials with Keith and Schnars, the consulting firm on the Crosstown project, said after approval the next step would be completing the route design by 2013 and any right of way acquisition by 2014.
George Jones, president of the St. Lucie County Conservation Alliance, protested the vote and said he wouldn't back down. Conservationists argue the route will cause extensive damage to state wetlands.
"I have a long history with this project as this moves forward, we will oppose this alternative every step of the way," Jones said. "You need to consider this is an election year as this moves forward. I hate to see more time expended on a crossway."
City engineer Patricia Roebling has said Port St. Lucie is committed to working with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and local agencies in developing mitigation plans to help offset environmental impacts, which include restoration and projects to improve water quality in the watershed and river system that will go beyond the impacts associated with this project.
Kelly, who said he's a member of the Conservation Alliance, said the decision to approve the extension bridge and the proposed route is for the good of the citizens.
"We have to do it for the people," Kelly said. "I am of the belief this will not damage the environment. People come first and this is the right area."
Eva Anton lives on Faith Terrace about 500 feet from where the Crosstown Parkway will be expanded on West Virginia Drive. She said when her and husband bought their house last year she had no idea a six-lane highway would be built in her back yard. But, even so, she's not totally against the project.
She thinks those who live in the path of the extension and must leave their homes should be generously compensated.
"If they put sound walls it won't be too bad and it means we can get to U.S. 1 faster," she said. "If they started it, they should finish it."
The Crosstown extension is projected to cost $161.5 million and accounts for mitigation plans and the purchase of surrounding properties and easements from the state.

Although Javier Marias has published 23 novels that have been translated into two dozen languages, the prize-winning Spanish author's work has yet to receive broad attention in the United States. That situation could change — and should — with the American release of "A Man of Feeling," a book that reflects the torture of love the way arias reflect heartbreak.
This is a musician's story and a complex one, filtered through the perceptions of a broad-shouldered Spanish opera singer who had a brief, adulterous affair earlier in his career, the details of which have recently returned to him in a dream.
The novel opens with the singer describing the elements of that dream leaving the reader to wonder where the unconscious images end and the facts of the singer's life — then and now — begin. This ambiguity persists throughout the book and is the secret of its tension, drama and appeal. The tenor's experience of his liaison and his memory of it, his sleep and waking, comes in fragments.
"Four years ago because of my work (I am a professional singer) and just before I made a miraculous recovery from my fear of flying in numerous journeys by train over a fairly short space of time, some six weeks in total … It was on the penultimate of these trips … that I saw for the first time the three faces I dreamed about this morning, which are the same faces that have occupied part of my imagination, much of my memory and my whole life (respectively) from then up until now, that is, for four years."
Those years have seen the young singer transformed from doing small parts in Verdi operas to larger ones, earning him the sobriquet the "Lion of Naples" because of a role he played in "Turandot" in that city. But it was in the early stages of his career, while playing Casio during a run of "Otello" at the Teatro de Zarzuela in Madrid that he began the doomed love affair that lasted seven days and is recalled in the dream.
These years have also taken their toll on him. Fifty pages into the book the narrator notes: "Now that I am telling you this dream and story I realize that I have abstained from thinking for the past four years." The memory has numbed him and brought him to the point at which illusion reigns where rational thought cannot, or to quote William Hazlitt as Mr. Arias does in the book's epigraph: "I think myself into love. And I dream myself out of it."
The three characters, the three faces of the dream, are brought to life by the author's intense precision and attention to detail — a tilt of the head, the placement of hands. But only two, the male characters are ever seen and fully described in the book. The woman, the object of both men's desire is seen only once clearly and remains shrouded in mystery.
She is Natalia, possessed of pale eyes and "gnarly fingers." Her husband Manur is a cold and aloof Belgian banker who wears a green fedora, and the man completing the trio of the narrator's imaginings is Dato, who functions as Mansur's professional secretary, a "venal" fellow who gets to know and attempts to control everyone's affairs, business or otherwise.
As the narrative proceeds and the attraction between the narrator and Natalia unfolds, the characters are caught in the quagmire of an adulterous union similar to the one faced by characters in "Otello," and by temperament they match up: Mansur is much like the tormented Moor, inclined to impulse and bad judgment; the lovely Natalia who beguiles seems a perfect match to Desdemona; and Dato, the "apparently indispensable conduit … who remained scrupulously in the background" has the innate villainy of a diabolical Iago.
But it is the narrator's thoughts about the affair, what precedes it and its aftermath that reveal the torment and extend the passion, anger and mystery of unfolding events: This is not just a story of love but of doom and pessimism, melancholy and destruction.
"Why do I want to go on seeing her every day? Perhaps because I want to be like Liu [the conflicted heroine of "Turandot"] or like Otello, because at this particular moment in my history or pre-past or life, I need to destroy myself or destroy someone else… Otello's life is better known. Among his options, he does not even consider anyone else's happiness… It is unthinkable , Otello stepping aside to bring about the happiness of his wife and the man with whom, according to Iago, she has been unfaithful."
Until the book's ending's surprise, which brings all that has passed before it into focus, readers must simply agree to participate in the suspense, taking cues — and pleasure — from the writing in which Mr. Marias succeeds in peeling back layer after layer of manners and motives of characters, creating a tale in which human feeling, particularly of the male rivals, trumps easy moral judgments and certainty.
In a curious finale to the book, the author has included an epilogue, more straightforward than his narrative, but not wholly so, in which he attempts to explain what he has written, focusing particularly on Natalia. "In the middle is a female character, Natalia Manur, who is shown in the novel in a very diffuse way … This might seem surprising given that she is also one of the main characters, but she belongs perhaps to that long line of fictional women (like Penelope, like Desdemona, like Dulcinea and so many others of less illustrious ancestry) whose existence is largely symbolic, as the narrator of 'The Man of Feeling' seems to acknowledge: 'For, as I well know,' he says, 'the most effective and lasting subjugations are based on pretence or, indeed, on something that has never existed.' One wonders if the narrator meant to add: 'or on something unfulfilled.'"
There is a fine story here for readers who make the effort. It is breathtaking.
