HENRYVILLE, Ind. – On the evening of March 2, Adam Kleinert stood in his yard videotaping an ominous storm brewing in the distance, but he listened when friends called with an urgent plea to get into his basement. There, the 35-year-old sat with his wife and kids eager for the weather to calm down so they all could get ready for his 7-year-old's basketball party.
"You just don't think anything bad is going to happen. It just didn't seem like it was possible," recalled Kleinert.
Then he walked outside.
The van was in the creek – 200 yards away from where it had been parked. The woods around their home were ripped away, leaving splintered stumps in place of once-tall, sturdy trees. Parts of the roof and most of the siding had blown off the house, which was now peppered in glass from multiple windows busted by what would eventually be confirmed as a violent F4 tornado. Kleinert would soon learn the damage done to his property was minimal compared to what many others had lost in the Southern Indiana town.
The local schools were nearly destroyed. Businesses and residences had all but vanished. Stephanie Decker lost her legs after using her body to shield her children from the tornado as it ravished their home. Lenora Hunter lost her husband Wayne, a retired ER nurse, moments after they rushed into a windowless hallway, clutching one another tightly.
"The next day we were cleaning up … and a few friends and I went out and just did anything we could around town," Kleinert remembered. "We were just trying to find people we could help."
Five days later, the graphic designer realized he had to go back to work to support his family. "I've got five other people at home who depend on me. So when I'm working, I'm always thinking, and the idea of a (benefit) calendar came to my head."
Kleinert wanted to use his design talents to create a 2013 calendar filled with images of people who had survived the storm. He'd then sell them for $10 and donate all proceeds to the Henryville In My Heart Fund, an account set up at New Washington State Bank that's managed by a group of trustees who determine how the money is spent to help with rebuilding of the town.Seeking a photographer, Kleinert turned to Josh Adwell, 33. "I really liked his work. I called him out of the blue and asked if he'd want to help with this calendar. I told him there's no money in it and he said that was fine. There were so many stories, we just thought this has to live on – at least for another year."
Step by step, Adwell and Kleinert began to compile photos and stories. "It was kind of great being part of it and just being there and being able to hear all the stories first-hand from people who were right there," said Adwell. "It just kind of makes me more grateful for the things that I have, for my family, my health."
Being a part of the calendar has made 18-year-old Emily Horine more appreciative, too. "When Adam approached me about it, he just politely asked if I'd be a part of it," said Horine. The soon-to-be Indiana State freshman was photographed for the calendar with her arms around two little girls she helped care for while hiding together in a music room closet at Henryville High School as the tornado pummeled the building.
"To the world we were victims, but our town quickly turned into survivors," Horine said. "The group of kids in the school that day, we all survived that. We weren't victims. We're better because of it. I think that's what we want Henryville's message to be through the calendar. We need to remember March 2 to remember that life's (about) more than just things. It's about being a part of your community and the overall love you have for those around."
Kleinert agreed. "It's hard to explain unless you were here. I wish I could feel that feeling every day (that we felt) three, four, five days after the tornado hit – just that feeling of the community coming together. It's just a good feeling. We'd go to friends and their house is gone, but they're telling you to go to someone else who really needs the help. I guess as an artist, it moves you to do something and you've got to get out somehow and keep the community coming together, and I guess it came out this way with the calendar."
Leafing through the pages of the datebook is both sobering and inspiring, particularly when you stop on the month of March 2013, which will mark the one-year anniversary of the tornado. The page features a stunning black and white photo Adwell took of Lenora Hunter, who holds a framed photograph of her husband, Wayne, as she sits on a step that used to lead up to her now nonexistent home. "I hope when people look at it, they're not feeling sorry for me, but it'd be great if they said a prayer for me every day that month and for everybody that we keep on keeping on."
Keeping on is tough when you lose your husband of 41 years, said Hunter. "I just go day by day, and like I tell people when they're quitting smoking, sometimes its moment by moment. You just keep going on."
And Hunter is thankful she has the chance. "Wayne always used to believe when it was your time, it was your time – and it was his time. It wasn't mine and there's a reason I'm still here."
The afternoon before the tornado, Wayne and Lenora Hunter sat together to eat. "I never thought that when we were eating pizza that afternoon that it would be the last meal we had together," she said.
The storm brewed in the distance, and the Hunters videotaped the darkness as it began to barrel toward them. "We've had tornados go over our house. We've had tornados tear up our property. I wasn't scared and I don't think he was. … You never think that either one of us would be hurt. Maybe a broken leg or something. I saw it pick up a truck across the road while we were getting in our safe spot, so to speak, though I guess if there's a F4 there is no safe spot."
The Hunters went to a windowless hallway and wrapped their arms around each other. "We both said, 'My ears are popping.' We said, 'I love you.' And then I woke up and he didn't," Lenora Hunter recalled. "A part of you is gone. Absolutely gone," she said quietly, choking back tears. "That was the love of my life. It's an emptiness but then you'll do something dumb and I just look up and say to him, 'OK, did you see you that?'" She laughed. "He would have laughed with me. He had a great sense of humor. The way we got through a lot of things, you just hold. He'd just hold me. You just hold each other. If it wasn't for us holding each other (on March 2), I would have given up, I would have quit trying to breathe, it hurt so much. … I think we were together until we landed. We were moved 63 to 65 feet. We don't know how high, we don't know how far. I really think we held on until we were knocked out. He just didn't wake up and I did. If you're going through something really traumatic you won't remember it and now I catch myself trying to remember. You want to know. It won't change anything, but you want to know. But I want people to know life goes on, whether you want it to or not – but it will."
In the last three months, Hunter, who recently turned 60, has had to make several major decisions while dealing with the grief of becoming a widow. "To lose everything all at once and try to rebuild 41 years in three months time, it's hard. It's very hard. But with family, friends and strangers from all over the world who have been so sweet and God, we're all going to make it. There's a lot more good people out there than is bad. And I have seen it the last three months."
As Hunter awaits the rebuilding of her home – this time with a basement – she's started looking for ways to grasp even a glimmer of normalcy. The 2013 Henryville Tornado Relief Calendar has given her one. "I'm helping to make money for the others (who need it in Henryville), and I love it that there's something I can do for other people. It goes back to what I used to do, that I can give to others again," she said. "People want to rebuild. We want our community back. This will help."

Lynch Syndrome and Colon Cancer
Last Modified: May 7, 2012
Due to Lynch Syndrome, I had my colon removed and a complete hysterectomy. 3 tumors were found in my colon, 1 in my uterus. Since then my adrenal glans have shut down (Addison's) and I have been diagnosed with R/A. Are the 3 somehow connected? Is there any way to treat me as a whole?
Bruce Giantonio, MD, Medical Oncologist at Penn Medicine, responds:
That is a very good question. While we commonly think of colon cancers when we think of the Lynch syndrome, there are other cancers associated with that syndrome as well, including uterine cancer. But, I am not aware of a link between lynch syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis. Unfortunately each cancer will need to be addressed separately, as will the RA. Adrenal insufficiency most often is a side effect of medications, so it would be worthwhile making sure that was considered. I hope this helps.

GENESEO, N.Y. – SUNY Geneseo is among the most selective colleges in upstate New York and adjoining sections of Pennsylvania and Ohio, according to rankings by the business newspaper Buffalo First.
Geneseo ranks 11th out of the 100 colleges in the survey, which reflects statistics from the National Center for Education Statistics on difficulty of gaining admission. Geneseo is one of seven upstate colleges among the first 11 on the list and among two of those 11 within about an hour's drive from Buffalo.
Geneseo received more than 9,000 applications last year and welcomed 988 new freshmen to campus. The mean high school average for the class was 94; the mean SAT score (composite of critical reading and math) was 1333. For the past several years, Geneseo's average has been about 300 points higher than the national composite average for all U.S. college students taking the test.

The first time I tuned my car, I was sure that if I made the smallest mistake, the car would explode when I started it. This seems to be a common delusion, but it just isn't so. If you make a mistake, in most cases all you'll get is silence (which can be just as disconcerting, but not lethal after all). This isn't to say that working on a vehicle is free from danger. Before you do any work, be sure to observe the following safety rules:
So much for the scary stuff. Auto repair safety is all a matter of common sense, really.
Extra Tip: How to dispose of empty gasoline cans safely
Although gasoline simply burns, gasoline plus air forms an explosive vapor that can literally take out your entire neighborhood. For this reason, it's wise not to store or carry gasoline unless you're heading far away from any source of fuel (and in that unlikely event, use only a specialized, vented gas can). If you have an old gasoline can around, get rid of it, and do it in a way that won't pollute the environment: Fill the can with water, and, as soon as you can, take the can to a recycling center that handles toxic waste. If there's no center nearby, ask your local service station if they'll dispose of it for you.
Some people keep gasoline around to clean parts with, but this is extremely dangerous. Mechanic's solvent, available at gas stations and auto supply stores, works better and has been treated with a flame retardant to keep it from burning too freely.
Extra Tip 2: What the big guys taught me about busting things loose
If you try to remove a bolt or a spark plug and you can't budge it, don't feel like a weakling. At first I thought that I had trouble because I was female, so I asked the biggest guys in my auto class for help because it would have been embarrassing if some little guy could do it. To my amazement, I found that often the big guys struggled, too! The difference was that they always prevailed. What I learned from them is that strength depends less on size or sex and more on the way in which we've been taught to focus our strength. People who are handy with tools usually have learned to pour their strength down their arms and into their hands, and focus it on the tool they're using. The guys also showed me that the longer the handle, the more leverage you have. And from watching them struggle, I learned that the patience to persevere comes from having the confidence that eventually you will succeed. So now I approach hard-to-move objects with the proper tools, focus, and patience. It works!

Constipation in children is a common problem. Constipation in children is often characterized by infrequent bowel movements or hard, dry stools.
Various factors can lead to constipation in children. Common causes include early toilet training and changes in diet. Fortunately, most cases of constipation in children are temporary.
Encouraging your child to make simple dietary changes — such as eating more fiber-rich fruits and vegetables and drinking more fluids — can go a long way toward alleviating constipation. If your child's doctor approves, sometimes constipation in children can also be treated with laxatives.
Signs and symptoms of constipation in children may include:
If your child fears that having a bowel movement will hurt, he or she may try to avoid it. You may notice your child crossing his or her legs, clenching his or her buttocks, twisting his or her body, or making faces during these maneuvers.
Constipation in children usually isn't serious. However, chronic constipation may lead to complications or signal an underlying condition. Take your child to a doctor if the constipation lasts longer than two weeks or is accompanied by:
Constipation most commonly occurs when waste or stool moves too slowly through the digestive tract, causing the stool to become hard and dry.
Many factors can contribute to constipation in children, including:
Constipation in children is more likely for kids who:
Although constipation in children can be uncomfortable, it usually isn't serious. If constipation becomes chronic, however, complications may include:
If your child's constipation lasts longer than two weeks, you'll likely first seek medical care from your child's doctor. If necessary, your child may be referred to a specialist in digestive disorders (gastroenterologist).
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready and know what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with your child's doctor may be limited, so preparing a list of questions ahead of time will help you make the most of your time together. For constipation in children, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
There are several things you can do that might help relieve your child's constipation before your doctor's appointment, for example:
Your child's doctor will:
More extensive testing is usually reserved for only the most severe cases of constipation. If necessary, these tests may include:
Depending on the circumstances, your child's doctor may recommend:
Over-the-counter fiber supplements or stool softeners. If your child doesn't get a lot of fiber in his or her diet, adding an over-the-counter fiber supplement, such as Metamucil or Citrucel, might help. However, your child needs to drink at least 32 ounces (about 1 liter) of water daily for these products to work well. Check with your child's doctor to find out the right dose for your child's age and weight.
Glycerin suppositories can be used to soften the stool in children who can't swallow pills. Talk with your child's doctor about the right way to use these products.
A laxative or enema. If an accumulation of fecal material creates a blockage, your child's doctor may suggest a laxative or enema to help remove the blockage. Examples include polyethylene glycol (Glycolax, MiraLax, others) and mineral oil.
Never give your child a laxative or enema without the doctor's OK and instructions on the proper dose.
Often, simple changes in diet and routine help relieve constipation in children:
A high-fiber diet. A diet rich in fiber can help your child's body form soft, bulky stool. The recommended intake for dietary fiber is 14 grams for every 1,000 calories in your child's diet. For younger children, this translates to an intake of about 20 grams of dietary fiber a day. For adolescent girls and young women, it's 29 grams a day, and for adolescent boys and young men, it's 38 grams a day.
Offer your child high-fiber foods, such as beans, whole grains, fruits and vegetables. But start slowly, adding just several grams of fiber a day over several weeks to reduce the amount of gas and bloating that can occur in someone who's not used to consuming high-fiber foods.
In addition to changes in diet and routine, various alternative approaches may help relieve constipation in children:

Oops, something didn't work.
Sorry guys but this is the worst video I've seen in a long time. For one you didn't give a clear path on how to start the tool and if anyone had done any editing on this video you'd have seen that this was terribly out of focus. Completely useless to those of us who are trying to get up and running with this tool when we don't even know how to locate it OR the documentation that is supposed to exist on install.

Oak Creek police investigate burglaries at adjoining businesses
Oak Creek - Police are investigating the theft of cash from two adjacent businesses in the 8500 block of South Howell Avenue between 9 a.m. Nov. 12 and 11 a.m. Nov. 13.
According to the Oak Creek police report:
During that timeframe, about $600 was taken from the cash drawer at Mailtruck Model A Ford Parts and a cash drawer containing $200 was taken from Cutest Kids consignment store. There was an unsecured access point between the two businesses.
Officers found pry marks on a door connecting the consignment store to WJ Kuhn, but nothing was reported missing from either WJ Kuhn or HK Graphics, which also is in the same building.
The front entry doors to both businesses were secured, and there were no signs of forced entry.

South side restaurant operators to plead guilty in tax fraud case
Three members of a Franklin family agreed to plead guilty to conspiring to commit tax fraud through the operation of their restaurants in Milwaukee, Franklin and Greenfield.
Paul and Freida Bouraxis and their son Andreas operate Omega Burger, El Fuego and El Beso, where federal prosecutors say they skimmed more than $3 million in cash receipts, failed to report much of it as income, and underpaid payroll taxes by compensating workers in cash.
Paul Bouraxis also agreed to plead guilty to tax evasion for his 2010 personal income tax returns.
All the defendants, including Paul Bouraxis' son-in-law, Reiad Awadallah, are scheduled to formally enter their guilty pleas in court next month, though no plea agreement had been filed for Awadallah as of Wednesday.
In return for the guilty pleas on Wednesday, prosecutors will recommend two years in prison for Bouraxis, a year and a day for his son, and six months of home detention for his wife.» Read Full Article

Bridge connects offerings at Abendschein Park
Connecting two popular features at Abendschein Park on Drexel Avenue, a footbridge was installed July 26.
The new 80-foot bridge can be found at the southeast corner of the park, 1321 E. Drexel Avenue. It connects the disc golf course to the skate park portion of the park, according to the city's Facebook page.
In addition to those offerings, a baseball diamond and playground are also offered on-site. The park is open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
New pickleball courts to be painted at Ken Windl, Pleasant View Parks
Franklin —Two new pickleball courts will be painted in the next few weeks at Ken Windl and Pleasant View Parks as popularity for the sport continues to grow in Franklin.
An extra bench will also be installed at each location, and the parks commission is looking into putting a storage cabinet at the parks to store equipment that has been donated, according to Superintendent of Public Works Jerry Schaefer.
The pickleball courts will be painted on existing tennis courts at each park. Each park already has two courts painted on one of its tennis courts, one on each side of the net, and the new courts will also be painted the same way, though in a less bright color as the other courts.
Paul Jahnke, Program Coordinator for the Franklin Community Education and Recreation Department, describes pickleball as "life-size table tennis."
"Pickleball is a racket sport played on a badminton-sized court with a tennis-height net. Game play is most similar to tennis. The racket is slightly larger than a table tennis racket and the ball is a very hard whiffle ball," Jahnke described.» Read Full Article
Walks catch up to Oak Creek baseball team in state loss to Marquette
For most of the WIAA state semifinal contest with Greater Metro rival Marquette on July 22 at Kapco Park, Oak Creek baseball coach Scott Holler would look at the basepaths and see Hilltopper runners poised to do dangerous things over and over again.
But then he would see that the Knights were ahead in the hits column for most of the game as well as on the scoreboard.
However, he knew his pitchers were giving Marquette too many opportunities with walks, and eventually, as Holler feared, it caught up with the Knights in the sixth.
At that point, the Hilltoppers took advantage of four walks and punctuated them with three hits to score six times. That outburst erased a 3-2 deficit en route to a stunning 8-3 win over the Knights.
"It was a good game for 51/2 innings," Holler said ruefully afterward as the Knights' bid for a fifth WIAA state title came up short and their 19-game winning streak came to an end.» Read Full Article

Though nervous, Frymark said the day went better than she expected, and she feels "very very humbled" by winning the grand prize.
"It felt like being crowned Ms. America for the food world," she described, adding that she was not expecting to win. "I had great competitors. Everyone belonged in that competition."
Throughout the competition, Frymark received a lot of positive feedback on her product, as well, receiving compliments that it was "tasty" and that people "loved the flavor."» Read Full Article
Lawmaker Grobschmidt knew how to reach across the aisle
Richard Grobschmidt, a former Wisconsin state Assembly member and senator who was known for his understated and collaborative style, died Sunday after a battle with cancer. He was 68.
In his 18 years in the Assembly and Senate, Grobschmidt spearheaded legislation requiring all school buses in the state to have mechanical safety arms and establishing a school-to-work apprenticeship program.
The apprenticeship legislation came from his lifelong passion for education, which led him to his first job as a high school social studies teacher and his final job as assistant superintendent of public instruction.
Grobschmidt, a Democrat, also worked on legislation for family medical leave, insurance coverage for infertility treatment and parental consent for minors seeking abortions.
He believed in the power of compromise, said his daughter, Tamara Grobschmidt.» Read Full Article
Oak Creek Public Library to host Hogwarts Reunion
The Oak Creek Public Library will transform into an after-hours magical world of literary proportions on July 29 as it hosts a Hogwarts Reunion party, timed to coincide with the July 31 release of J.K. Rowling's new book Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
Because the book has been marketed toward an adult audience, Library Director Jill Lininger explained that the event itself is marketed to adults 21 and older, where they can enjoy drinks and a home-brewing seminar. Lininger said 150 people bought tickets and plan to be in attendance at the now sold-out event.
The party will be modeled after many of the events libraries and bookstores held in the late 1990s and 2000s when Rowling was turning out previous books in the popular series. Lininger said many of the people set to attend this event will be people who attended those parties when they were younger.
Similar to those earlier events, partygoers can expect a convention-style scene at the library, with games, crafts, snacks and drinks themed around Harry Potter.
In addition to those staples, the party will also include a presentation on snakes from the Racine Zoo, crystal reading, tarot and tea leaf reading and home-brewing and cooking seminars.» Read Full Article

Big inning leads Marquette past Oak Creek in state semifinal
A six-run sixth inning propelled Marquette to an 8-3 victory over Oak Creek in a WIAA state semifinal Friday, July 22 at Kapco Park.
Oak Creek issued four walks and made two errors in the sixth inning, as Marquette turned a 3-2 deficit into a commanding lead.
"We just didn't execute pitches when we needed to," Oak Creek coach Scott Holler said. "They are too good of a hitting team to give freebies to. They made it hurt. With their team speed and hitters up and down the lineup, they create all kinds of problems. That was the difference in the game."
The Knights scored three runs in the third to take a 3-0 lead. A balk plated Oak Creek's first run, and D.J. Ellifson added an RBI triple and Alex Binelas an RBI single.
Marquette scored single runs in the third and in the fourth against Ellifson to pull to within 3-2. The Hilltoppers scored their second run without the benefit of a hit after a pair of walks, a double steal and a wild pitch.» Read Full Article

WHEELING - Philip Lagat believed he knew what he was getting into by signing up for the 38th annual Ogden Newspapers Half Marathon Classic.
''I knew the course was hilly, so I adjusted my training,'' said the 31-year-old native of Kenya, who runs out of Hebron, Ky.
As it turns out, the course Saturday morning offered a lot tougher terrain than Lagat anticipated. Not that it really mattered in the end, though.

BREAK?THE?TAPE — Philip Lagat crosses the finish line to win the 38th annual Ogden Newspapers Half Marathon Classic in Wheeling on Saturday.
Lagat ran away from the competition in a big way, crossing the finish line in 1:08:57, to take the overall men's title. His time was nearly two minutes better than his closest competitor, and friend, Wesley Ochoro, 36, who crossed in 1:10:38.
''That is my strategy for a half marathon. I need to go, go, go,'' Lagat said. ''At the start I was in the front.
''About 2 or 3 miles I was with my friend from Kenya, but during my last 2 or 3 miles I just go by myself.''
When Lagat goes, everyone else has little option but to follow.
Coming off a personal-best 2:12.39 in a victorious effort at the 37th Ride Aide Cleveland Marathon six days earlier, Lagat showed no sign of fatigue. His time was just shy of a PR for a half marathon, set in 2006, in Virginia Beach.
''I have never seen hills like this. I used to run some hills, but this is really, really hilly,'' Lagat said. ''When you're running is when you're feeling it.
''I have been training for a period of time so I was running easy, but it was not easy.''
Colin Gundling, a Wheeling native who currently resides in Sewickley, Pa., was the top local finisher and ended third overall. Coming off his second victory in the Ogden Mile a night earlier, Gundling finished in 1:18:41. To put Lagat's dominance into perspective, he beat Gundling, a former champion of the event whose time was better Saturday than it was that year, by a little less than 10 minutes.
''The weather was very perfect,'' Lagat said. ''I kind of enjoyed the weather, but the course is tough, man.''
Not tough enough for Lagat, obviously.
Brian Waters of Camp Hill, Pa., was fourth and Cedric Robinson of Martins Ferry, himself a former Ogden Mile winner, rounded out the top 5 with a time of 1:21:52.
Locally, Valley Grove's Sean Flanagan, 27, who recently finished the Boston Marathon, ended seventh the Ogden with a time of 1:22:44. Wheeling's Russell Mulley, 23, and St. Clairsville's Kyle Timko crossed the line four seconds apart in eight and ninth place, respectively.
Gundling's brother, Ryan, 33, and a resident of Staunton, Va., clocked in at 1:24:46, which was good for 10th.
Shawn Deal, 36, of Bethany, finished 11th and Wheeling's David Kozusnik, 28, was 14th.

Up on the rooftop pool deck at downtown's Hotel Palomar, the cafe lights strung by 360 Degrees Lighting glittered as the crowd played paparazzi, chronicling an evening that was all about harnessing the power of social media and crowning the ultimate game changer.
Celeb chef and restaurateur Brian Malarkey squired his mother, Lesley Day, around the party. At night's end, he presented her with his $10,000 check, the grand prize in Verizon's charity-driven Game Changer contest. It was a sweet payday for Chimps Inc., Day's Oregon sanctuary for captive chimpanzees. Malarkey's vanquished competitors were hardly monkeying around, though. Tenley Molzahn (of The Bachelor fame), Jamie Lynn Sigler (founder of J Public Relations) and former Charger Shawne Merriman each earned $4,000 for their respective charities.
Partygoers grazed on housemade sopes, pot roast and wild salmon, and were wowed by a lavish spread of mini desserts, while fans of the competitors' BlackBerry smartphones could give the Q10 and Z10 models a spin. So, did the evening spawn a few new CrackBerry addicts? #youbetcha. –Photography by J. Dixx Photography

I will be staying in San Francisco for about a week. Coming from New Zealand I've already paid an arm and a leg for airfares so I'm quite interested in backpacker accommodation options in or around San Francisco. I'm not looking for anything flash, just clean, friendly and central or close to public transport. Something similar in standard to the YHA hostels in New Zealand.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sweetstuff BEST SHEETS EVER!!!! This is the thickest, softest,most luxurious flannel bedding I've ever experienced. It's so comfy and nurturing. Getting into bed is a pleasure and waking up in the morning is a delight -- just feeling the softness and comfort of these sheets. Thank you for providing such a high quality product. This is truly the BEST FLANNEL BEDDING EVER! May 13, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Annbrosia Signature Flannel I purchased a "name" brand from a popular Dept. store to replace a previous set of GH flannels...it was like sleeping on burlap. Like some husbands, mine has a problem associating $'s with quality when it comes to home goods. I kept the previous on hand so that when my new Garnet Hills flannels arrived he could touch them both at the same time. It was like comparing peaches to pineapples. We don't splurge on a lot of things but after the comparison he agreed the end of the day was a good time to invest in a quality product. Softer and softer after every wash, we're hooked. Tip: don't use fabric softener: it coats the fibers and takes away from the natural softness. Enjoy!! March 17, 2016

Rated 5 out of 5 by Santie Love These Flannel Sheets These sheets really help take the bite out of winter. We started using them last year, and stocked up on more for this winter. When I put them on the first cold week of autumn, my husband nestled in with pleasure. They are very soft, yet durable, and completely eliminate that icy chill one gets from climbing into cold sheets. March 3, 2016

Embargoed until 18 September 2009
Psychiatrists today call for urgent action to
protect vulnerable young people from the harmful influence of
pro-eating disorder websites.
So-called 'pro-ana' (pro-anorexia) and
'pro-mia' (pro-bulimia) websites have existed since the development
of the internet – but their number has soared in recent years with
the growth of social networking.
Now the Royal College of Psychiatrists says
the Government must do more to address the dangers of pro-eating
disorder websites and keep young people safe online. In September
2008, the Government established the UK Council for Child Internet
Safety to deliver recommendations made by Professor Tanya Byron in
her report Safer Children in a Digital World.
But members of the Royal College of
Psychiatrists' Eating Disorders Section
claim the Council's plans for action do not go far enough because
they fail to specifically address pro-eating disorder websites. In
a new
position paper published today (18 September 2009), the Royal
College of Psychiatrists calls on the Council to:
Professor Schmidt, chair of the Royal College
of Psychiatrists' Eating Disorders Section, said: "Pro-ana and
pro-mia websites advocate anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa as a
lifestyle choice, rather than as serious mental disorders. Research
shows that, even for healthy young women, viewing such websites
induces low mood, low self-esteem and increased body
"The broader societal context in which pro-ana
and pro-mia sites thrive is one where young women are constantly
bombarded with toxic images of supposed female perfection that are
impossible to achieve, make women feel bad about themselves and
significantly increase their risk of eating disorders."
The publication of the College's new position
paper on pro-ana websites coincides with the start of London
Fashion Week (18-22 September 2009).
Professor Schmidt said: "Pro-ana websites
normalise illness. In much the same way, the catwalks of
international fashion events such as London Fashion Week can act as
a showcase for underweight women. We are very concerned that the
lack of medical checks for models at London Fashion Week, coupled
with working in an environment where being underweight is
considered the norm, prevents models with eating disorders from
gaining insight into their condition."
Professor Schmidt also urged the fashion
industry to take a lead in promoting a wider range of body images.
Commenting on the All Walks Beyond the Catwalk fashion showcase,
taking place at London's Somerset House tonight, Professor Schmidt
said: "It is vital that the fashion industry promotes more diverse
body imagery, and we applaud the British Fashion Council for this
ground-breaking event. We hope the event will start a dialogue and
promote greater diversity within the fashion industry."
The Eating Disorders Section also welcomes the
Liberal Democrat's new Real Women policy,
which makes six key recommendations relating to body image.
Royal College of Psychiatrists' Eating Disorders Section: Position paper on pro-anorexia and pro-bulimia websites http://www.rcpsych.ac.uk/docs/Pro-ANa%202ndof%20June2009[2].doc
All Walks Beyond the Catwalk takes place on Friday 18 September 2009. A ground-breaking new project taking place during the 25th Anniversary of London Fashion Week, All Walks Beyond the Catwalk will feature cutting edge designers showcasing a look from their spring/summer 10 collections on models, sizes 8-16 and ages 17-65. Inspired by charity Beat and endorsed by the British Fashion Council, co-founders Caryn Franklin, Debra Bourne, Erin O'Connor and Susan Ringwood, seek to engage the fashion industry in a conversation about body image and expand upon the imagery coming out of the heart of London Fashion Week.

I'm trying to work out a way of listing the drives that a particular instance of SQL Server is "aware" of, and understand the process.
I can run
EXEC master..xp_fixeddrives which gives me a list of drives, but when I look in the GUI (Eg. Databases | Restore Database | From device | Add ) the list of available drives is far fewer.
By what process does SQL server become "aware" of a drive and is there any way to problematically determine the drives it is aware of?
Thanks in advance!

Can an Outsider with the Native subtype be summoned with a spell? If so, under what conditions, and what spell? If not, why? Other than needing to be summoned to a plain different to the one it's native to, I can see no reason why it would not meet the conditions of a Summon Monster spell.
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
So according to Summon Monster:
Which brings the question: can a Native Outsider be Extraplanar?
So yes, while not on the Material Plane, a Native Outsider would have the Extraplanar subtype (Native and Extraplanar are not incompatible), and therefore be a valid target for summoning.
However, Summon Monster has already clearly defined Summon Lists which don't include any Native Outsider, meaning they would have to be adapted. There is also the problem of level: when summoning a monster, you just get the basic one, not a version with classes. So it could be argued that Summoning an Aasimar (for example) would get you the Lvl 0 version. I would see several ways of doing it, but that would definitely be in the houserules domain.
So, while an Outsider (Native) is theoretically a valid target of Summoning in RAW, the actual mechanisms of it would have to be houseruled by the GM.
So except for the fact that Summon Monster has a set list, you could argue that you should be able to summon "native outsiders" (that is, from the Prime Material) if casting Summon Monster from a non-Material plane, as they are technically extraplanar.
However, you have the humanocentric nature of the game to deal with philosophically. Planar Binding works on outsiders and elementals - not Prime folks even if cast in Abbadon. You appear to be coming at it from a Planescape-esque "all planes are created equal, just different" viewpoint while the Pathfinder cosmology tends more towards "hey, these are special spiritual planes where gods live" - they are quite literally the spirit world, not "another Prime Material that just happens to be hot and have a lot of sulfur around."
Having said that, you can craft your game world how you like, and if you like the more "cosmopolitan planes" conceit you can certainly extend all the spells to work that way.

Jobless Claims Fell By 27,000 Last Week
The number of people filing first-time clams for unemployment insurance fell by 27,000 last week, to 341,000 from 368,000 the week before.
The Employment and Training Administration also reports that the "4-week moving average was 352,500, an increase of 1,500." That average, in theory, gives a better picture of the trend.
According to Reuters, the drop last week was larger than expected and points to "a continued steady improvement in labor market conditions." The slight uptick in the 4-week average, though, underscores that the improvement appears to be slow.

Coming from a Windows background, i'm a little lost in terms of Linux so are there any good resorces etc for an experienced sysadm who is unfamiliar to Linux.
closed as off-topic by masegaloeh, kasperd, Rex, Andrew Schulman, Xavier Lucas Mar 25 '15 at 19:54
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
You should start from the Linux Documentation Project pages.
Once you get into things, the HOWTO pages should help for specific things.
When I was wetting my feet, I don't mean to sound trite, but Google was a huge help: "Samba slackware 10 conf tips".
Linuxquestions.org was also a totally invaluable asset. I could ask specific questions about specific distros, or a very complex iptables scheme, and usually get a friendly answer.
O'Reilly publishes several great books too, which I have on my desk even today:
And last but not least: a sandbox. Get a cheap used computer and install some distro on it (I recommend Ubuntu if you want something simple, or Slackware if you want a steeper learning curve.)
I'm in the same boat, just been only a while since I switched to Linux. I used the following resources:
Of course, this is by no means a comprehensive list(more so since I'm a beginner myself), but I feel its a good one to start with. It certainly helped me. Hope it does help you too!
I'd advise you to just install and use Linux for a while. You know the saying: we retain 20% of what we hear, 50% of what we see and and up to 90% of what we do.
I'd advise a beginner-friendly distribution.
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ Ubuntu Linux is my favourite; it's very userfriendly, but based on the solid Debian base, which is available if you want to dive in more deeply.
Install it on some spare hardware or a VM, then play with it. Set yourself simple tasks (install webserver, setup a router with NAT, install groupware, update system etc.) and see where it takes you. The ressources listed in the other answers will come in useful :-).
The nice thing about Linux is that almost everything is configurable, and the system does not try to get in your way. It takes a bit getting used to (like everything new), but im optimistic you'll like it :-).
For general administrative documentation for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (applicable to derivatives like Centos for the most part, and more generally applicable to the same software on other distros), you might find the RHEL Docs Page useful.
For info on SELinux-related topics, try the Fedora SELinux User Guide
For more general documentation on a wide variety of topics, I would suggest poking through the available documentation from Gentoo. For the most part, everything that Gentoo ships is extremely close to what the upstream project releases, and Gentoo has long been known for its excellent, detailed documentation that you should find applicable to any distro for the most part. Try both its Documentation Section and the (unofficial) Gentoo Wiki.
As a more general piece of advice, I can't stress enough that whatever distro you use, you should try to do as much as possible within the framework of its own tools (package manager, provided scripts, etc) and in the 'distro preferred manner' rather than giving in to the temptation to compile from source or hack up your own scripts.
About 2 weeks ago I asked a similar question here. That night I set up a SAMBA server with Ubuntu Server Edition using this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-home-fileserver
I even finished the install via SSH (Putty) from my Windows laptop. Since then, not a day has passed that I havent logged in remotely from home/work/coffee shop and check the status/bandwidth/whatever.
I have configured it as a file server AND I am running Apache and a nice little website. I am also using it as an FTP server. THere is no monitor, keyboard, or mouse so I do all config using Putty.
I have become obsessed with it...its awesome!
Here is the link to my post:
For large-scale Linux/Unix system administration see http://www.infrastructures.org/
Some of the specific tool recommendations are a bit dated (e.g. CVS for version control, nowadays I'd recommend git or mercurial), but the basic principles are sound.

Three construction workers - 11-18-2009, 03:49 PM
There were three construction workers named Bill, Jim and Dave who always ate lunch together. Bill unpacked his lunch.
"Oh god, not ham sandwiches again," he said. "I swear, if I get ham sandwiches again tomorrow, I'm jumping off this building."
Jim opened his lunchbox. "Oh for flip's sake, not peanut butter sandwiches," he said. "If I get that again tomorrow, I'm jumping off, too."
Dave then took out his sandwiches. "Not cheese, I really hate cheese. If I get cheese again, I'll jump off this building as well."
The next day, all three construction workers went up to the top of the building as usual. Bill opened his lunchbox.
"Darn it," he said. "Flipping ham sandwiches again!" and he jumped off.
Jim took out his lunch. "Not peanut butter!" and he jumped off, too.
Dave looked at his lunch. "Oh no, not cheese!" and did likewise.
At the funeral, Bill's wife was sobbing into her hanky.
"If only I hadn't given him ham sandwiches!" she bawled. "He'd be alive today if I'd only made him something different!"
"I feel exactly the same!" sobbed Jim's wife. "I never would have made Jim peanut butter sandwiches if I'd known this would happen!".
They both stared at Dave's wife, who not only wasn't crying, but had a look of exasperation on her face. "Don't look at me like that," she said.
"The stupid moron packed his own lunch!"

Wednesday, December 4, 2013
According to a 2009 poll, around 1% of American adults reported eating no animal products. In 2011 that number rose to 2.5%--more than double, but still dwarfed by the 48% who reported eating meat, fish or poultry at all of their meals. In this country, most of us are blessed with an abundance of food and food choices. So taking into account our health, the environment and ethical concerns, which diet is best? Are we or aren't we meant to be carnivores?

Barnard's most recent study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes was funded by the National Institutes of Health. He has authored dozens of scientific publications, 15 books for lay readers, and has hosted three PBS television programs on nutrition and health, ranging from weight loss to Alzheimer's prevention. As President and Founder of the nonprofit Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, Barnard has been instrumental in efforts to reform federal dietary guidelines. He also leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research.
President and Co-Founder, Farm Sanctuary
Gene Baur, President and Co-founder of Farm Sanctuary, has been hailed as "the conscience of the food movement" by Time magazine. Since the mid-1980s, Gene has traveled extensively, campaigning to raise awareness about the abuses of industrialized factory farming and our system of cheap food production. His book, Farm Sanctuary: Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food (2008), a national bestseller, is a thought-provoking investigation of the ethical questions surrounding beef, poultry, pork, milk, and egg production. It describes what each of us can do to promote compassion and help stop the systematic mistreatment of the billions of farm animals who are exploited for food in the United States every year.
Nutritional Sciences Researcher & Blogger, The Daily Lipid
Chris Masterjohn pursued a career in health and nutrition after recovering from health problems he developed as a vegan by including high-quality, nutrient-dense animal foods in his diet. He earned a PhD in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Connecticut in 2012 and currently researches the physiological interactions between fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and K at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He has published six peer-reviewed publications and has submitted one manuscript for review. He also writes two blogs.

Herbivores are what omnivores eat for breakfast.
When paleontologist study the bones and teeth of a long extinct animal they can tell the type of diet the animals had by the teeth in their mouths. For instance MOLAR like teeth would be for crushing and grinding and usually means the animal was an HERBIVORE. Sharp edged and pointed teeth mean the animal was more than likely a CARNIVORE. A combination of the two meant the animal was an OMNIVORE. Based on the evidence we HUMANS are omnivores. Our teeth are the type that allow for ripping and tearing just as well as crushing and grinding. A VEGAN/VEGETARIAN lifestyle eliminates half of what our bodies were designed (evolved) to consume in order to repair itself and remain healthy. ALL THINGS IN MODERATION.. That is my motto and how I live my life.
Meat is murder and the reality is tofu is murder too:
I am vegetarian. My wife is not. While I think she'd be better off if she also became veggie, and of the reasons I became one, I don't force it on her.
That said, at the grocery store I will not buy any meat for her that isn't free range and without add steroids and hormones. Organic is even better.
It's our compromise, and it works for us.
Now, on to address a couple of the comments:
Nancy wrote "Only approximately 70% of our population..."
Only 70%?
While I appreciate MT's attempt to turn the tables Penny N., don't you actually make the point for also growing crops in a way that is better for the environment?
Nobody can really ever convince me that consuming rotting bacteria ridden animal muscle can really do anything good for my body like balance out plasma or support my bones. My veteranarian scientist brother has been vegan since 1975. Stress was a major cause of my arthritis, and becoming vegan nurtured me back to health in body, mind, and spirit and I was able to sell my cane in a garage sale. It was a total LIFESTYLE change, many are unwilling to give up for whatever reason they concoct. I did not merely eat more organic broccoli for dinner. If we can just admit it is the lifestyle people are unwilling to give up, we can expose our frailties. For me, like many vegans in a non-compassionate world, it's the lonliness that is the hardest thing to overcome. I watched my brother go through the same thing for years. It is a long lonely road for some of us. But listen to your heart and free yourself; it's the right thing to do, and I believe deep down everyone knows that.
I used to be vegan/vegetarian for about 10 years, including running marathons and lesser lengths. Last fall I developed rotting teeth and a nerve/muscle compression. I'm pretty sure incomplete nutrition, lack of collagen, B12 etc. I'm not willing to get B 12 injections so I've started eating minimal amounts of pastured chicken (made into a deeply cooked stew with lots of veggies) and a tiny bit of the same done with organic pastured beef bones. One chicken or Cornish hen lasts me a month. I need to save my teeth. And like 75% of the global population, cow's milk products are out for me, plus there's a nasty aftertaste, even when from pastured organic milk.
"animals foods can be a part of a healthy diet" This depends on your evaluation of the meaning of "Healthy" I would say being a Vegan or Vegetarian is healthier for the environment and the individual without the unnecessary slaughter of a life form.
It's not only a matter of health. Or if it is, then surely there's something glaringly incongruous about caring so much about human health and nothing about the continuing health of other animals. It's abusive to farm and consume other animals. Physically abusive, psychologically abusive, sexually abusive. And the more we study other animals the crueller it is revealed to be. Other animals deserve our care.
Hello Nancy, I had never heard before that many "people require animal flesh and fat to metabolize their food and maintain a balanced blood plasma PH". Would you please share references and readings about that? I would like to know more. Thanks, Stefano
When you look at the amount of chemicals (herbicides and insecticides), as well as the bacteria, the sterols and processed seed oils; when you look at the environmental impact of the the monoculture farming industry; when you look at the of growing these crops on native species; when you look at the detrimental effects of the standard carbohydrate heavy American diet... it's not difficult to see the benefits of following a meat based diet.
Eat what you want, but don't use fear-mongering and lies to push an agenda. Of course animals foods can be a part of a healthy diet.
It's not proteins that cause weight gain and most of metabolic disorders. Understanding glycemic index and biochemistry of metabolism is key. Much of vegan diets also do not limit simple carbs, which will create more chaos in one's metabolism than pacify one's mind that nothing with a face is being eaten!
When you look at the amount of chemicals and hormones in meat, as well as the bacteria, the cholesterol and saturated fat; when you look at the environmental impact of the factory farming industry; when you look at the bizarre and often cruel treatment of the animals; when you look at the detrimental effects of the standard meat-heavy American diet... it's not difficult to see the benefits of following a vegan diet.
I am trying to become vegan but it is difficult to do in a world of carnivores. My reasons are mostly ethical but there are many other benefits including weight loss. Health benefits are tremendous. Last week I had a full blood workup and lipid checkup, my numbers were terrific! In addition, I simply feel better. However, I would not recommend a vegan diet to everyone. There are health risks associated with eliminating nutrients from your diet without proper guidance. Talk to your doctor or health coach and they will help you go vegan effectively.
Close to 70 percent of Americans struggle with their weight. We are fighting a war against obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and certain forms of cancer. Moving towards a healthful plant-based diet can significantly change the way we view food and help our health in the long run.
There are people who require animal flesh and fat to metabolize their food and maintain a balanced blood plasmaPH. Only approximately 70% of our population would benefit from a vegetarian or vegan diet, The rest of us would suffer serious metabolic disorders (many of us already are because of a lack of nutritional knowledge, even on the part of professionals). Suggesting that everyone be vegan is simply ignorant!

In my app I allow users to add new rows of NSStrings to a UITableView. I save these new strings in an NSMutableArray *dataArray
So for numberOfRowsInSection I return [dataArray count], but it seems to just return 0 all the time so my table is not auto-populating.
If it helps, when I do an NSLog of [dataArray count] as a add more entries, it keeps remaining as 0. Why isn't it increasing?
Any help?

Measuring Michigan's Performance
Michigan's dashboards were implemented by Governor Rick Snyder to provide a quick assessment of the state's performance in key areas including: economic strength; health and education; value for money government; quality of life; and public safety. To view the dashboards click below.
2016 State of the State MiDashboard at a Glance
Upon taking office in January 2011, Gov. Rick Snyder established the Michigan Dashboard to measure the state's progress in meeting key objectives and to serve as a catalyst for positive change.
MI School Data
MI School Data is the place to discover what is working in Michigan education. It is the state of Michigan's official portal for education data to help citizens, educators and policy makers make informed decisions that can lead to improved success for our students.
County Health Rankings & Roadmaps
The annual County Health Rankings measure vital health factors, including high school graduation rates, obesity, smoking, unemployment, access to healthy foods, the quality of air and water, income, and teen births in nearly every county in America. The annual Rankings provide a revealing snapshot of how health is influenced by where we live, learn, work and play. They provide a starting point for change in communities.
Local Government Dashboards
Governor Snyder, in 2011, signed into law the Economic Vitality and Incentive Program (EVIP), which changed the way that Revenue Sharing was distributed to local units throughout the state. One of the items necessary to receive EVIP funds required local units of government to make available to the public a performance dashboard or a financial summary of its local finances, including a recognition of its unfunded liabilities.
