FAIRFIELD, Conn.—Students in Sacred Heart University's Exercise and Aging course helped plan and coordinate a recent health fair at The Watermark at 3030 Park retirement center in Bridgeport. About 60 people from 3030 Park and the surrounding community attended the second annual health fair. The free event featured 20 stations that included massage therapists, strength and fitness testing, dietary information and other health vendors.
FAIRFIELD, Conn. – Rupendra Paliwal has been named provost and vice president for Academic Affairs at Sacred Heart University. Paliwal has served as acting provost for the past six months. "In his short time as acting provost, Rupendra has demonstrated a collaborative leadership style focused on actions and outcomes. He has shown the ability to understand diverse viewpoints and to tackle tough and complex issues," said SHU President John J. Petillo. "As our next provost, I am confident that Rupendra will assiduously promote our mission by working collaboratively to further strengthen the academic reputation of the University, its colleges and programs, while fostering a culture of innovation and experimentation."
FAIRFIELD, Conn. – The Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA) has granted accreditation-provisional status to Sacred Heart University's master of physician assistant studies (MPAS) program*. The commissioners, whose members include PA program directors, MDs and PA educators found zero observations-or areas in need of improvement. "This can be considered analogous to a perfect score on our accreditation. The PA Program team is extremely proud of this accomplishment and is looking forward to welcoming the first class," said Teresa Thetford, director of the PA program.

If you don't want to throw down the cash for the Fairmont, the Rimrock is a close second in Banff for a top-rated hotel (stay here and still have drinks/snacks on the huge deck with the amazing view at the Fairmont, though!)
Location - you probably need a car if you are staying here. We loved that it was a 5 minute drive uphill out of town, as you felt up in the mountains and away from the touristy center of town. It is also an 80 minute drive from Calgary. Other location highlights - the hotel is right across the street from the Hot Springs and very close to the Banff gondola which is a must on a nice day for great views.
Hotel -The hotel is a lot more modern than the Fairmont, and very lodge-feeling. We enjoyed the common areas, and especially the bars and the small deck overlooking the mountain side (only 3 tables, though). We only ate dinner in the lounge once, but it was quite good and moderately priced. The rooms were somewhat plain, but were very clean and included high quality sheets, pillows, and linens. Most rooms felt like a corner room with windows on both sides that come to a point with beautiful views. Staff were friendly and accommodating at all times, and were always helpful with directions and tips.
$16 daily parking
Deck for drinks was only 3 tables - always a wait to sit outside
Rooms somewhat plain - and our bathroom seemed to always have someone else's hair on the floor which was not ideal
Restaurants we liked: Grizzly House for fondue, Bear Street Tavern for pizza and drinks, and Phil's for breakfast/brunch.
Sites we liked around Banff: Minnewanka boat cruise, Banff gondola/Sulphur Mountain, Johnston Canyon, Bow Falls, and Vermillion Lakes. We did all that in a day. We spent a second day around Lake Louise/Moraine, as well as Yoho National Park sites.

In the meantime, I cleaned up the build system in the gtk3 branch. With minor changes, they could be also applied to master. Basically, I fixed 'make distcheck' to make it work, and fixes some issues I found when installing pybliographer in non-standard directories, and running from the source code without installing it any place beforehand.

Aximsite – Dell to offer Windows Mobile 5 to X50 owners
Looks like I won't be left out in the cold when Microsoft releases their Windows Mobile upgrade later this year:
Aximsite - Dell to offer Windows Mobile 5 to X50 owners
Dell will offer a Windows Mobile version 5.0 software upgrade for the Dell Aximâ"¢ X50 handheld family later this year.
The new software is expected to enable users to take advantage of several new productivity and multimedia enhancements, like updated Microsoft Office programs and Direct3D Mobile support. It also supports persistent storage capability, helping to protect against the loss of personal data and applications when batteries discharge completely.
Dell Axim X50 customers will be able to purchase the upgrade, expected to ship during the third quarter, on compact disc. Microsoft Corp. previewed the next-generation mobile software today at its annual Mobile & Embedded DevCon (MEDC) 2005 in Las Vegas.
Thought Thieves
Microsoft is sponsoring a short film competition in the UK entitled Thought Thieves on the subject of intellectual property theft.
Thought Thieves is about people stealing and profiting from your creation or innovation. Think about it: how would you feel if you saw your hard work being passed off as the property of someone else? What would you do?
There are two categories: 14-17 year olds, and 18+.
Submissions are limited to 45 seconds or less, presumably because intellectual property law is straightforward and uncontroversial.
I wonder if any of the entries will touch on any of the following topics:
- The difference between copyright infringement and theft.
- The founder's idea that the grant of copyright and patent monopolies exist to promote the useful arts and sciences, and that they be limited in duration.
- That technological innovation has always lead to periods of extended discussion and compromise.
- That the doctrine of fair use exists to protect individuals who use works in a limited way.
Somehow, I suspect the films will be considerably less subtle in their treatment of this topic.

European Commission Approves Late Post-MI Ticagrelor at 60 mg »
"LONDON, UK â" The European Commission (EC) has followed the recommendation last year from its Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) for an additional indication for the oral platelet inhibitor ticagrelor (Brilique, AstraZe"...
Read the European Commission Approves Late Post-MI Ticagrelor at 60 mg article »
RIFAMATE (rifampin and isoniazid capsules USP) is a combination of two drugs, each of which has been associated with liver dysfunction.
Rifampin has been shown to produce liver dysfunction. There have been fatalities associated with jaundice in patients with liver disease or receiving rifampin concomitantly with other hepatotoxic agents. Because RIFAMATE contains both rifampin and isoniazid, it should only be given with caution and under strict medical supervision to patients with impaired liver function. In these patients, careful monitoring of liver function, especially serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) and serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) should be carried out prior to therapy and then every 2 to 4 weeks during therapy. If signs of hepatocellular damage occur, RIFAMATE should be withdrawn.
In some cases, hyperbilirubinemia resulting from competition between rifampin and bilirubin for excretory pathways of the liver at the cell level can occur in the early days of treatment. An isolated report showing a moderate rise in bilirubin and/or transaminase level is not in itself an indication for interrupting treatment; rather, the decision should be made after repeating the tests, noting trends in the levels, and considering them in conjunction with the patient's clinical condition.
Rifampin has enzyme-inducing properties, including induction of delta amino levulinic acid synthetase. Isolated reports have associated porphyria exacerbation with rifampin administration.
(See the BOXED WARNING).
Since RIFAMATE contains isoniazid, ophthalmologic examinations (including ophthalmoscopy) should be done before treatment is started and periodically thereafter, even without occurrence of visual symptoms.
RIFAMATE should be used with caution in patients with a history of diabetes mellitus, as diabetes management may be more difficult.
For the treatment of tuberculosis, rifampin is usually administered on a daily basis. Doses of rifampin greater than 600 mg given once or twice weekly have resulted in a higher incidence of adverse reactions, including the "flu syndrome" (fever, chills and malaise), hematopoietic reactions (leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or acute hemolytic anemia), cutaneous, gastrointestinal, and hepatic reactions, shortness of breath, shock, anaphylaxis, and renal failure. Recent studies indicate that regimens using twice-weekly doses of rifampin 600 mg plus isoniazid 15 mg/kg are much better tolerated.
Rifampin is not recommended for intermittent therapy; the patient should be cautioned against intentional or accidental interruption of the daily dosage regimen since rare renal hypersensitivity reactions have been reported when therapy was resumed in such cases. Rifampin has enzyme induction properties that can enhance the metabolism of endogenous substrates including adrenal hormones, thyroid hormones, and vitamin D.
All drugs should be stopped and an evaluation of the patient should be made at the first sign of a hypersensitivity reaction.
Use of RIFAMATE, because it contains isoniazid should be carefully monitored in the following:
- Patients who are receiving phenytoin (diphenylhydantoin) concurrently. Isoniazid may decrease the excretion of phenytoin or may enhance its effects. To avoid phenytoin intoxication, appropriate adjustment of the anticonvulsant dose should be made.
- Daily users of alcohol. Daily ingestion of alcohol may be associated with a higher incidence of isoniazid hepatitis.
- Patients with current chronic liver disease or severe renal dysfunction.
Laboratory Tests
Adults treated for tuberculosis with RIFAMATE should have baseline measurements of hepatic enzymes, bilirubin, serum creatinine, a complete blood count (CBC) and platelet count (or estimate), and blood uric acid.
Patients should be seen at least monthly during therapy and should be specifically questioned concerning symptoms associated with adverse reactions. All patients with abnormalities should have follow-up, including laboratory testing, if necessary. Routine laboratory monitoring for toxicity in people with normal baseline measurements is generally not necessary.
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment Of Fertility
Increased frequency of chromosomal aberrations was observed in vitro in lymphocytes obtained from patients treated with combinations of rifampin, isoniazid, and pyrazinamide and combinations of streptomycin, rifampin, isoniazid, and pyrazinamide.
A few cases of accelerated growth of lung carcinoma have been reported in man, but a causal relationship with the drug has not been established. Hepatomas were increased in female (C3Hf/DP) mice dosed for 60 weeks with rifampicin followed by an observation period of 46 weeks, at 20 to 120 mg/kg (equivalent to 0.1 to 0.5 times the maximum dosage used clinically, based on body surface area comparisons). There was no evidence of tumorigenicity in male C3Hf/DP mice or, in similar studies in BALB/c mice, or in two year studies in Wistar rats.
There was no evidence of mutagenicity in both prokaryotic (Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli) and eukaryotic (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) bacteria, Drosophila melanogaster, or ICR/Ha Swiss mice. An increase in chromatid breaks was noted when whole blood cell cultures were treated with rifampin.
Isoniazid has been reported to induce pulmonary tumors in a number of strains of mice.
Teratogenic Effects
Category C
Although animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with RIFAMATE teratogenic effects (including cleft palate and spina bifida) have been observed in rodents treated with rifampin at doses 0.2 to 2 times the maximum recommended human dose, based on body surface area comparisons. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of RIFAMATE in pregnant women. RIFAMATE should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Congenital malformations, primarily spina bifida were increased in the offspring of pregnant rats given rifampin during organogenesis at oral doses of 150 to 250 mg/kg/day (about 1 to 2 times the maximum recommended human dose based on body surface area comparisons). Cleft palate was increased in a dose-dependent fashion in fetuses of pregnant mice treated at oral doses of 50 to 200 mg/kg (about 0.2 to 0.8 times the maximum recommended human dose based on body surface area comparisons). Imperfect osteogenesis and embryotoxicity were also reported in pregnant rabbits given rifampin at oral doses up to 200 mg/kg/day (about 3 times the maximum recommended daily human dose based on body surface area comparisons). Although there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women, rifampin has been reported to cross the placental barrier and appear in cord blood.
It has been reported that in both rats and rabbits, isoniazid may exert an embryocidal effect when administered orally during pregnancy, although no isoniazid-related congenital anomalies have been found in reproduction studies in mammalian species (mice, rats, and rabbits).
Non-Teratogenic Effects
When administered during the last few weeks of pregnancy, rifampin can cause postnatal hemorrhages in the mother and infant for which treatment with vitamin K may be indicated.
When administered during the last few weeks of pregnancy, rifampin can cause postnatal hemorrhages in the mother and infant. In this case, treatment with vitamin K may be indicated for postnatal hemorrhage.
Nursing Mothers
Because of the potential for tumorigenicity shown for rifampin in animal studies, and since rifampin and isoniazid are known to cross the placental barrier and to pass into maternal breast milk, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue RIFAMATE, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients under the age of 15 have not been established. (See CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, General; See also DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of RIFAMATE did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. Caution should therefore be observed in using rifampin and isoniazid in elderly patients. (See WARNINGS).This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

Chapter OneAARON sensed someone standing close as he broke loose a mold and put the dried brick aside. Skin prickling with fear, he glanced up. No one was near. The Hebrew foreman closest to him was overseeing the loading of bricks onto a cart to add on to some phase of Pharaoh's storage cities. Wiping the moisture from his upper lip, he bent again to his work.
Through the area, sunburned, work-weary children carried straw to women who shook it out like a blanket over the mud pit and then stomped it in. Sweat-drenched men filled buckets and bent beneath the weight as they poured the mud into brick molds. From dawn to dusk, the work went on unceasingly, leaving only a few twilight hours to tend small garden plots and flocks in order to sustain life.
Where are You, God? Why won't You help us?
"You there! Get to work!"
Ducking his head, Aaron hid his hatred and moved to the next mold. His knees ached from squatting, his back from lifting bricks, his neck from bowing. He set the bricks in stacks for others to load. The pits and plains were a hive of workers, the air so close and heavy he could hardly breathe for the stench of human misery. Sometimes death seemed preferable to this unbearable existence. What hope had he or any of his people? God had forsaken them. Aaron wiped the sweat from his eyes and removed another mold from a dried brick.
Someone spoke to him again. It was less than a whisper, but it made his blood rush and the hair on the back of his neck stand on end. He paused and strained forward, listening. He looked around. No one paid him any notice.
Maybe he was suffering from the heat. That must be it. Each year became harder, more insufferable. He was eighty-three years old, a long life blessed with nothing but wretchedness.
Shaking, Aaron raised his hand. A boy hurried over with a skin of water. Aaron drank deeply, but the warm fluid did nothing to stop the inner quaking, the feeling of someone watching him so closely that he could feel that gaze into the marrow of his bones. It was a strange sensation, terrifying in its intensity. He leaned forward on his knees, longing to hide from the light, longing to rest. He heard the overseer shout again and knew if he didn't get back to work he would feel the bite of the lash. Even old men like him were expected to fulfill a heavy quota of bricks each day. And if they didn't, they suffered for it. His father, Amram, had died with his face in the mud, an Egyptian foot on the back of his neck.
Where were You then, Lord? Where were You?
He hated the Hebrew taskmasters as much as he hated the Egyptians. But he gave thanks anyway-hatred gave a man strength. The sooner his quota was filled, the sooner he could tend his flock of sheep and goats, the sooner his sons could work the plot of Goshen land that yielded food for their table. The Egyptians try to kill us, but we go on and on. We multiply. But what good does it do us? We suffer and suffer some more.
Aaron loosened another mold. Beads of sweat dripped from his brow onto the hardened clay, staining the brick. Hebrew sweat and blood were poured into everything being built in Egypt! Raamses' statues, Raamses' palaces, Raamses' storage buildings, Raamses' city-everything was stained. Egypt's ruler liked naming everything after himself. Pride reigned on the throne of Egypt! The old pharaoh had tried to drown Hebrew sons in the Nile, and now Raamses was attempting to grind them into dust! Aaron hoisted the brick and stacked it with a dozen others.
When will You deliver us, Lord? When will You break the yoke of slavery from our backs? Was it not our ancestor Joseph who saved this foul country from starvation? And look at how we're treated now! Pharaoh uses us like beasts of burden, building his cities and palaces! God, why have You abandoned us? How long, oh, Lord, how long before You deliver us from those who would kill us with labor?
The Voice came without and within, clear this time, silencing Aaron's turbulent thoughts. He felt the Presence so acutely that all else receded and he was cupped silent and still by invisible hands. The Voice was unmistakable. His very blood and bone recognized it.
Go out into the wilderness to meet Moses!
The Presence lifted. Everything went back to the way it had been. Sound surrounded him again-the suck of mud from stomping feet, the groan of men lifting buckets, the call of women for more hay, the crunch of sand as someone approached, a curse, a shouted order, the hiss of the lash. Aaron cried out as pain laced his back. He hunched over and covered his head, fearing the overseer less than the One who had called him by name. The whip tore his flesh, but the Word of the Lord ripped wide his heart.
"Get up, old man!"
If he was lucky, he would die.
He felt more pain. He heard voices and drifted into blackness. And he remembered ...
How many years since Aaron had thought of his brother? He had assumed he was dead, his dry bones forgotten somewhere in the wilderness. Aaron's first memory was of his mother's angry, anguished weeping as she covered a woven basket she had made with tar and pitch. "Pharaoh said we have to give our sons to the Nile, Amram, and so I will. May the Lord preserve him! May the Lord be merciful!"
And God had been merciful, letting the basket drift into the hands of Pharaoh's daughter. Miriam, at eight, had followed to see what became of her baby brother, and then had had enough boldness to suggest to the Egyptian that she would have need of a wet nurse. When Miriam was sent for one, she ran to her mother.
Aaron had been only three years old, but he still remembered that day. His mother pried his fingers loose. "Stop holding on to me. I have to go!" Gripping his wrists tightly, she had held him away from her. "Take him, Miriam."
Aaron screamed when his mother went out the door. She was leaving him. "Hush, Aaron." Miriam held him tight. "Crying will do no good. You know Moses needs Mama more than you do. You're a big boy. You can help me tend the garden and the sheep...."
Though his mother returned with Moses each night, her attention was clearly on the infant. Every morning, she obeyed the princess's command that she take the baby to the palace and stay nearby in case he needed anything.
Day after day passed, and only Aaron's sister was there to comfort him. "I miss her, too, you know." She dashed tears from her cheeks. "Moses needs her more than we do. He hasn't been weaned yet."
"I want Mama."
"Well, wanting and having are two separate things. Stop whining about it."
"Where does Mama go every day?"
She pointed. "To the palace, where Pharaoh's daughter lives."
One day Aaron snuck away when Miriam went out to see about their few sheep. Though he had been warned against it, he went along to the Nile and followed the river away from the village. Dangerous things lived in the waters. Evil things. The reeds were tall and sharp, making small cuts on his arms and legs as he pressed through. He heard rustling sounds and low roars, high-pitched keens and frantic flapping. Crocodiles lived in the Nile. His mother had told him.
He heard a woman laughing. Pushing his way through the reeds, he crept closer until he could see through the veiling green stalks to the stone patio where an Egyptian sat with a baby in her lap. She bounced him on her knees and talked low to him. She kissed his neck and held him up toward the sun like an offering. When the baby began to cry, the woman called out for "Jochebed." Aaron saw his mother rise from a place in the shadows and come down the steps. Smiling, she took the baby Aaron now knew was his brother. The two women talked briefly, and the Egyptian went inside.
Aaron stood up so that Mama could see him if she looked his way. She didn't. She had eyes only for the baby she held. As his mother nursed Moses, she sang to him. Aaron stood alone, watching her tenderly stroke Moses' head. He wanted to call out to her, but his throat was sealed tight and hot. When Mama finished nursing his brother, she rose and turned her back to the river. She held Moses against her shoulder. And then she went back up the steps into the palace.
Aaron sat down in the mud, hidden among the reeds. Mosquitoes buzzed around him. Frogs croaked. Other sounds, more ominous, rippled in deeper water. If a snake got him or a crocodile, Mama wouldn't care. She had Moses. He was the only one she loved now. She had forgotten all about her older son.
Aaron ached with loneliness, and his young heart burned with hatred for the brother who had taken his mother away. He wished the basket had sunk. He wished a crocodile had eaten him the way crocodiles had eaten all the other baby boys. He heard something coming through the reeds and tried to hide.
"Aaron?" Miriam appeared. "I've been looking all over for you! How did you find your way here?" When he raised his head, her eyes filled with tears. "Oh, Aaron ..." She looked toward the palace, yearning. "Did you see Mama?"
He hung his head and sobbed. His sister's thin arms went around him, pulling him to her. "I miss her, too, Aaron," she whispered, her voice breaking. He rested his head against her. "But we have to go. We don't want to cause her trouble."
He was six when his mother came home alone one night, grieving. All she could do was cry and talk about Moses and Pharaoh's daughter. "She loves your brother. She'll be a kind mother to him. I must take comfort in that and forget she's a heathen. She'll educate him. He will grow up to be a great man someday." She balled up her shawl and pressed it to her mouth to stifle her sobs as she rocked back and forth. "He will come back to us someday." She was fond of saying that.
Aaron hoped Moses would never come back. He hoped never to see his brother again. I hate him, he wanted to scream. I hate him for taking you away from me!
"My son will be our deliverer." All she could talk about was her precious Moses, Israel's deliverer.
The seed of bitterness grew in Aaron until he couldn't stand to hear his brother's name. "Why did you come back at all?" he sobbed in rage one afternoon. "Why didn't you just stay with him if you love him so much?"
Miriam cuffed him. "Hold your tongue or Mama will think I've let you run wild while she was gone."
"She doesn't care about you any more than she cares about me!" he yelled at his sister. He faced his mother again. "I bet you didn't even cry when Papa died with his face in the mud. Did you?" Then, seeing the look on his mother's face, he ran. He ran all the way to the mud pits, where his job was to scatter straw for the workers to stomp into the mud in the making of bricks.
At least, she had spoken less of Moses after that. She had hardly spoken at all.
Now Aaron roused from the painful memories. He could see the heat through his eyelids, a shadow falling over him. Someone put a few drops of precious water to his lips as the past echoed around him. He was still confused, the past and present mingling.
"Even if the river spares him, Jochebed, whoever sees he's circumcised will know he is condemned to die."
"I will not drown my own son! I will not raise my hand against my own son, nor can you!" His mother wept as she placed his sleeping brother in the basket.
Surely God had mocked the Egyptian gods that day, for the Nile itself, the life's blood of Egypt, had carried his brother into the hands and heart of the daughter of Pharaoh, the very man who commanded all Hebrew boy babies be drowned. And furthermore the other Egyptian gods lurking along the shores of the Nile in the form of crocodiles and hippopotamuses had also failed to carry out Pharaoh's edict. But no one laughed. Far too many had died already and continued to die every day. Aaron sometimes thought the only reason the edict had eventually been lifted was to make sure Pharaoh had enough slaves to make his bricks, chisel his stone, and build his cities!
Why had his brother been the only one to survive? Was Moses to be Israel's deliverer?
Miriam had ruled Aaron's life, even after their mother had returned home. His sister had been as protective of him as a lioness over her cub. Even then, and despite the extraordinary events regarding Moses, the circumstances of Aaron's life didn't change. He learned to tend sheep. He carried straw to the mud pits. At six, he was scooping mud into buckets.
And while Aaron lived the life of a slave, Moses grew up in a palace. While Aaron was tutored by hard labor and abuse at the hands of taskmasters, Moses was taught to read and write and speak and live like an Egyptian. Aaron wore rags. Moses got to wear fine linen clothes. Aaron ate flat bread and whatever his mother and sister could grow in their small plot of hard, dry ground. Moses filled his belly with food served by slaves. Aaron worked in the heat of the sun, up to his knees in mud. Moses sat in cool stone corridors and was treated like an Egyptian prince despite his Hebrew blood. Moses led a life of ease instead of toil, freedom instead of slavery, abundance instead of want. Born a slave, Aaron knew he would die a slave.
Unless God delivered them.
Is Moses the one, Lord?
Envy and resentment had tormented Aaron almost all his life. But was it Moses' fault he had been taken from his family and raised by idol-worshiping foreigners?
Aaron didn't see Moses until years later when Moses stood in the doorway of their house. Their mother had come to her feet with a cry and rushed to embrace him. Aaron hadn't known what to think or feel, nor what to expect from a brother who looked like an Egyptian and knew no Hebrew at all. Aaron had resented him, and then been confused by Moses' desire to align himself with slaves. Moses could come and go as he pleased. Why had he chosen to come and live in Goshen? He could have been riding a chariot and hunting lions with other young men from Pharaoh's household. What did he hope to gain by working alongside slaves?
"You hate me, don't you, Aaron?"
Aaron understood Egyptian even though Moses didn't understand Hebrew. The question had given him pause. "No. Not hate." He hadn't felt anything but distrust. "What are you doing here?"
"I belong here."
Aaron had found himself furious at Moses' answer. "Did we all risk our lives so you could end up in a mud pit?"
"If I'm to try to free my people, shouldn't I get to know them?"
"Ah, so magnanimous."
"You need a leader."
Their mother defended Moses with every breath.

At three years of age a jealous Aaron misses his mama who seems to spend all her time with one year old brother Moses. His older sister Miriam tries to provide solace, but that fails to ease the ache in the little boy¿s heart perhaps because she too misses her mama. Three years later, a heartbroken mama tells her two oldest children that the daughter of the Pharaoh loves Moses and he will live with her as his mother. Years later, God speaks to Aaron to go to the wilderness and help Moses lead the enslaved Israelites to the Promised Land. Putting aside his jealousy, Aaron becomes Moses¿ right hand man as they seek freedom. Over time he becomes the First High priest only to watch his flock fail God. Though feeling undeserving of his role and a failure, Aaron in his low key manner encourages his people to properly worship the Lord. While performing the seemingly impossible but critical tasks without acclaim, he also finds a brotherly love to his charismatic younger brother, leader of the wandering Hebrews. Starting with Aaron, Francine Rivers, in her Sons of Encouragement series, is telling the tales of five influential individuals who in the background of a charismatic superstar shaped religion. The first novel, THE PRIEST, is a biblical fiction work fans will enjoy though the book starts off a bit slowly as readers are introduced to the key players as described in the Torah. This historical fiction novel turns into a deep character study in the second half of the novel as the audience feels the emotions especially self doubts, disbeliefs and concerns during forty years of wandering. Harriet Klausner
That one thing is that the writing style seems very rushed. There's typos and errors within the text. But, that's the only thing I could say against this book and all the rest of the series. One thing I have to say that I think is great is that Francine is making these seemingly 2D characters come to life. I mean, you read about Aaron and all the rest of the men she's written about, but have you ever really thought about how they lived? Thought of them as real people? Definitely read this book, and the rest!
This book was given to me as a gift. I really enjoyed this book and learned alot about Aaron, Moses, and their family. I have a hard time reading books because I like to be moving around but this book really kept me interested. I read outloud to my husband and we both enjoyed it and I am looking forward to the Warrior. Thank you Lord for giving the authors the gift to write these books.
I NEED IT FOR MY NOOK!!! I want to read this whole series in fact I would love to read every book Francine Rivers has published but my eyesight has gotten so bad that i can only read with my nook. I had completely given up reading until my husband gave me a nook last year for Christmas and it has been the best gift I have ever gotten since it has opened up my eyes again to reading.... My kids laugh that I only see about 4 lines on a page but it is perfect for me and I enjoy once again reading. Please consider publishing these for our ereaders! thanks, Ruth Wade

More downside remains. Bad news from overseas are piling up and BIDU to go lower with it ($120 is the entry point), IMO. I will cover my PUTs around $120-$122.GL
A fool and his PUTS are soon parted :) An exercise in futility for you is convincing an internet message board audience who barely control the float !!
You sound very childish and seems that you are long with BIDU, might have purchased at a higher price and can not stand seeing BIDU going down everyday. Little advice for you, do not fall in love with a stock and learn from your mistake. I trade both ways (CALLs/PUTs), this is not the time for going long on BIDU. Wait 'til it gains momentum. Play smart and do not sound like a loser....enough free lesson for today. GL.

Nicole Yarling: Joe Williams Presents Nicole Yarling At Manchester Craftsmen's Guild
As for Yarling, it's clear from the first notes of Joe Williams Presents... why the old master took her under his wing. Along with the requisite technical skills, a sweet, smooth voice and plenty of vocal range, she has that ineffable quality that makes good performers great ones: charisma. The sheer sense of joy she imparts in her singing - something Joe Williams always projected - is irresistible. And though she's making her debut as a jazz recording artist, she's no beginner. With years of training and singing in night clubs, as well as some high-profile pop gigs (she sang with Jimmy Buffett's band for several years), Yarling knows how to deliver a song with confidence and style.
While she seems most at home in a loose, soul-funk vein - check her no-holds-barred take on Eddie Harris' "Freedom Jazz Dance" - Yarling can also get straight to the heart of classic ballads like "My One and Only Love." She even contributes two fine, poetic original compositions to the proceedings, and provides some nice fills and solos on the violin.
But the album's real magic happens when Williams joins Yarling for a staggering duet of "Blame It On My Youth." To Yarling's credit, she holds her own with Williams, whose humor, wisdom and impeccable timing draw out all the subtle meanings of the lyrics. If that's not enough, Williams sticks around for three more bonus cuts, closing, poignantly, with a slow, gorgeous reading of "After You've Gone." A perfect coda for a wonderful album and a great, great artist.

The FDA Medical Device User Fee Programby Judith Johnson
On June 20, 2012, the House of Representatives passed, by voice vote and under suspension of the rules, S. 3187 (EAH), the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act, as amended. This bill would reauthorize the FDA prescription drug and medical device user fee programs (which would otherwise expire on September 30, 2012), create new user fee programs for generic and biosimilar drug approvals, and make other revisions to other FDA drug and device approval processes. It reflects bicameral compromise on earlier versions of the bill (S. 3187 [ES], which passed the Senate on May 24, 2012, and H.R. 5651 [EH], which passed the House on May 30, 2012). The following CRS reports provide overview information on FDA's processes for approval and regulation of drugs: CRS Report R41983, How FDA Approves Drugs and Regulates Their Safety and Effectiveness, by Susan Thaul; CRS Report RL33986, FDA's Authority to Ensure That Drugs Prescribed to Children Are Safe and Effective, by Susan Thaul; CRS Report R42130, FDA Regulation of Medical Devices, by Judith A. Johnson; CRS Report R42508, The FDA Medical Device User Fee Program, by Judith A. Johnson. (Note: The rest of this report has not been updated since April 24, 2012.) The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the agency responsible for the regulation of medical devices. These are a wide range of products that are used to diagnose, treat, monitor, or prevent a disease or condition in a patient. A company must obtain FDA's prior approval or clearance before marketing many medical devices in the United States. The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) within FDA is primarily responsible for medical device review and regulation. Congress first gave FDA the authority to collect user fees from medical device companies in the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-250). The purpose of the user fee program is to help reduce the time in which FDA can review and make decisions on marketing applications. Lengthy review times affect the industry, which waits to market its products, and patients, who wait to use these products. The user fee law provides a revenue stream for FDA; in conjunction, the agency negotiates with industry to set performance goals for the premarket review of medical devices. Reauthorization of FDA's medical device user fees last occurred in 2007, just before the FDA's authority would expire, via the Medical Device User Fee Amendments of 2007 (MDUFA II). Current authority will expire on October 1, 2012. On February 1, 2012, FDA announced that it had reached "an agreement in principle" with the medical device industry on proposed recommendations for the second reauthorization-referred to as MDUFA III. A draft MDUFA III package, composed of statutory language and the FDA industry agreement on performance goals and procedures, was posted on the FDA website on March 14, 2012, and a public meeting describing the draft was held on March 28, 2012. The 30-day comment period on the draft ended April 16, 2012. Following review of the comments, FDA may revise the recommendation and then is to submit the final package to Congress. Since medical device user fees were first collected in FY2003, they have comprised an increasing proportion of FDA's device budget. Medical device user fees have raised a number of concerns, prompting Congress to carefully consider issues such as which agency activities could use fees, how user fees can be kept from supplanting federal funding, and which companies should qualify as a small business and pay a reduced fee. Congress is also considering reauthorization of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) as well as new proposals for a Generic Drug User Fee Act and a Biosimilars User Fee Act. It is likely that these three will be combined with MDUFA III along with a variety of related and unrelated issues.

Skip to comments.Disney drops 4 Mexican Riviera cruises (& Other lines, citing violence)
Posted on 01/04/2012 6:57:44 PM PST by dragnet2Edited on 01/04/2012 8:34:03 PM PST by Sidebar Moderator. [history]
Disney Cruise Line spokesman Rebecca Peddie says it will allow the company to prepare its 2013 itinerary.
Port business development manager Chris Chase tells the Torrance Daily Breeze that it's a sign of weakening demand for cruises to Mexico, where there has been a surge of violence.
(Excerpt) Read more at mercurynews.com ...
Escalated violence in Mexico has cruise lines on high alert, with many carriers cancelling service to Mexicos West Coast. Royal Caribbean has already removed the option to choose West Coast departures with ports of call to Mexico. Norwegian Cruise Lines West Coast liner, Norwegian Star, will discontinue its service to Mexico starting in May 2011. Carnival Corp has made the decision to move one of its West Coast liners to Australia in 2012.
Cruise lines cancel Mazatlan visits after passenger muggings
One of the most popular winter destinations for Minnesotans has been experiencing an increase in crime that has caused three cruise lines to cancel visits.
The Pacific coast resort city of Mazatlan, long a favorite of Upper Midwest vacationers due to its warm climate and for being less expensive than other options such as Puerto Vallarta and Ixtapa, has reported several muggings at its cruise terminal. Canceling visits last week were Disney Cruise Line, Holland America Line and Princess Cruises. Thankfully, the destination hasn't been impacted like Acapulco which is located several hundred miles farther south.
The famous resort city has seen kidnappings and murders of tourists in recent months, severally impacting its tourist trade.
Mexican Violence Forces Cruise Lines to Drop Port of Mazatlan
There have been three reported robberies involving passengers or crew in Mazatlan in recent weeks.
A Canadian tourist, not from a ship, was also shot in the leg last week when he was caught in gang crossfire in the city.
Disney, which was to call at Mazatlan with the Disney Wonder for the first time this week, says as a result of safety concerns it has canceled all visits to the city "until further notice."

What a surprise!
Does Mexico care. Or if it cares can it do anything.
This has been coming a long time, due to not only the violence, but the U.S. economy.
What did the US economy do to Mexico, just curious. Seems that the flow of enterprising illegales to the US has faltered, so their half-a-brain drain situation would be ameliorated. But again, the flow of dollars to Mexico from such folks would be lessened to.

Uh one factor,....Just a wild guess, but I suspect many Americans no longer have the money to go on week long cruises to Mehico.
I take a Caribbean cruise every February with Texas friends(we get a resident's discount and can drive to Galveston)and I wish RCCL would drop Cozumel. Cozumel has lost its' luster, now has fixed prices and armed troops patroling. I only go to the post office (to mail postcards to people that don't do email) and the Cuban cigar store on the next block.
we've been on three Disney cruises and are taking a fourth next August...its a carribean cruise which leaves out of Port Caneveral but we stop twice in Mexico; in Cancuun and Cozumel....wonder if we will see any changes...

Just last week the parks were at capacity!
Restaurants in our town are full all the time....
...Folks are getting their money somewhere.....and plenty of peole are still going on cruises.
I wouldn't cross the border into Mexico if ya held a gun at my back.
Have fun!
True, and maybe a weaker dollar means Mexico is a less budgetarily attractive place for those still fortunate enough to be in the money, to go. Mexico attracted because it was paradise on the cheap.
Me either brother! Made my last foray there in '69 with my buddy fresh back from Nam. Never again.
Hear ya!
We used to go fishing down there years ago...
Never again.
We still cruse down there we just stay on the boat when in port we got the whole ship to our selfs
Same here. I've been on five cruises and have had a few opportunities to cruise to Mexico. Declined them all. You couldn't pay me to go to Mexico.
Yep...And given the fact that millions from that country routinely disrespect our borders, rules and break our laws, I wouldn't spend a dime there.
Payback can be a b***h.
70% of the stops Gopher, Julie, Issac, Doc, and Capt. Stubing visited, along with Zsa Zsa, Charo et al, are no longer visited by any of the cruise lines.
I just got an email of cruise deals from Princess Cruises. One of them was a 14 day Panama cruise from Florida to LA. After stopping in Costa Rica it sails straight to LA without stopping anywhere in Mexico. Never heard of that before.
No doubt!
Great. Is there a place in the world that isn't reaping the whirlwind?
I can see all the Mexicans I want just by walking down the street of my small town. Why pay to see them? Besides, we're all already paying for them to vacation in America while robbing us blind.

This impacts our local economy, here in the South Bay area of Los Angeles. Now, Alaska will be the only trip available, I guess. For some reason, I don't think they do cruises to Hawaii. Maybe now is a good time to start.
Too bad for the cruise lines, and those that supply these bloated barges...
All that crap pales in comparison to what tens of millions of illegal Mexicans are doing to our social services, choking off our hospitals, healthcare, schools, jails, welfare, you name it.
I wouldn't spend a dime in a country who's people routinely defecate on our rules, laws and borders.
DCL will be sailing to Hawaii twice next year, April and October. I think both sailings have proved very popular, so I think they may do it more often. Coincidentally, their Hawaii cruises all stop in Ensenada, MX since the Disney ships are all Bahama flagged.
"What did the US economy do to Mexico, just curious."
Hurt the tourist economy, but not the drug economy, which is largely supported by U.S. Government wealth transfer payments.
I got yet another live example of this today. (It's Welfare Check Day in the Inner-Cities tonite)
For those pondering an Endenada trip...dont. Just don't. Once a great place. Long ago.
You are right. There are cruises for people in every kind of income class. Cruises are good value for your money....this is why the cruise business is much larger than 30 years ago. Basic cost of the cruise is reasonable. The bills start adding up when you get off the ship
And if you are a rich old fart.... You can easily book a cruise that will cost you $20,000 for you and wife for 10 days. Lots of different level accomadations for the consumer
Dittos...... I want nothing to do with that place
That kind of says it all..... roughly half your cruise distance and not one stop in a Mexican west coast port. People like to get off and stretch their legs but Mexico is too dangerous
I covered the SCORE Baja 500/1000/San Felipe races back in the late 90s/2000. Getting 20 miles south of Ensanada to Cabo reveals a stunningly beautiful country. But no more do than NorCal, the Grand Tetons, the Blue Mountains or the Adirondacks.
I certainly understand people's desire to travel out of country, but many of them never traveled IN the country to the above or a thousand other places as beautiful.
Most are among the best people you'd ever want to meet and I have a number of friends there from my time at the races. But since South Central LA is now safer than Baja, that pretty much tells people all they need to know.
Dear Disney Company;, Please stop sailing to ANY third world country that harbors muderers, rapists and kidnappers.
I suggest you buy a BIGGER island somewhere thats somewhat remote and build your own Mysterious Island.
Create your own maritime security force and if needed hide some SAMs in a castle or two.
'Not anymore.'
We were in Ixtapa about 1979, by air, not ship. Thru a Disney Travel Club or some such.
Barely anything there then . . . warm ocean and nice beach.
I was once told the reason they have to stop in Mexico is because of US law. Because the Disney ships are registered in the Bahamas it is considered a foreign vessel. And the law states that all foreign passenger vessels that leave a US port must include a foreign port in its itenerary if it is to visit a 2nd US port. The reason has something to do about protecting US ships and their routes somehow. But that would be the reason why Disney and other lines have to stop in a Mexican or Canadian port during their trips.
There are various reasons why the big cruise ships especially are rarely registered in the United States. Taxes is a big one, but also because US law states that the ship would have to be staffed 100% with American citizens along with various other labor laws. As you know, cruise ships tend to have international staffs. The Bahamas has pretty lax rules on that kind of thing and lower taxes. So most cruise ships are registered in the Bahamas or other carribean islands.
Just came back from the Nice Mexico cruise. it avoided the bad towns that are on the drug trade, and visited PV, Cabo, and some nice smaller fishing villages on Baja.
Lines are avoiding ports for safety reasons, but they are cancelling cruises (and diverting to other regions) for FEAR reasons. The fact that they do this the consequence of the fear, not proof of the justification of the fear.
Looking forward to a week living in a nice house in a real neighborhood in PV next month.
What you're referring to is called the "Jones Act."
It mandates that shipping from US port to a US port must be done by US built ships staffed by US crews.
This law has been largely defeated by the Canadian National RR after they bought US Steel's fleet of Great Lakes ore carriers.
Yep, of all the places I'd like to go to, Mexico is certainly not on the list.
None of those places are tropical and most are in the mountains. Some people have to get that tropical dose especially in the winter.
Thanks dragnet2. It sez Mexican Riviera, but no low rider jokes please.
No, no, see -- that's what happens after you get there.

Prize Fight: Texas vs. California
There are 8 comments on the TownHall.com story from Feb 4, 2011, titled Prize Fight: Texas vs. California. In it, TownHall.com reports that:
The contrast between the Lone Star State and the Golden State pits conservative principles against the same old liberal ideas that have driven a once-thriving California to the brink of utter disaster and ruin.

Companies continue to leave California, as our government does not
meet its responsibilities.
Basically the highest taxes of any state, with the exception of property taxes.
And property taxes are one of the largest targets of politicians and lobbyists who just can not get the idea of spending what you have, not what you want.
The best thing that could happen to California is for Washington to pass a law allowing states to go into bankruptcy.
Restructuring out of control spending and contracts that can not be maintained, AND mandating that taxes collected for a purpose be used only for that purpose. Too often, the citizens are sold a package of tax hikes on gasoline, alcohol, whatever evil of the day exists. Those taxes are sold as an answer to that evil (gas taxes, infrastructure?) and the money is siphoned off for special interests on BOTH sides of the mythical aisle

Yes they are ..Puerto Vallarta is full of ex California business owners happy running a business here.
Blue printing company.
Two companies that specialize in digital printing
Over 25 restaurants
A/c Company
Equipment Rental Company
In the marina there are 20 fishing boats for hire with California ports listed.
Toyota and a Honda dealership
Countless maintenance companies from gardeners to painters.
Countless construction companies.
Doctors and dentist
Tire store
The list goes on and on of people that have closed a California company and re opened one here..
If they file bankruptcy the liberal loons would just run it into the ground again

Here Is One.
Good point. Take the example of Long Beach. Ever since the 60s 70s revolution, Long Beach has been a hotbed of 60s 70s style radical activism. The revolutionary activist element,(now in power), have promoted an endless stream of failed 60s era social and economic schemes.
Long Beach will need to compete for port cargo once modern port facility developments, such as the Punta Colonet harbor development, gets up to speed. There is also the prospect that, once Panama Canal improvements are made, giant container ships will be able to avoid the west coast entirely.
Still, Long Beach's elderly 60s era State Senator has proposed using Government force to impose yet another container tax on every container passing through the port. I wonder how long it will be before the politicians find out they will have to offer shippers taxpayer funded incentives to send their cargo through the Port of Long Beach?

They are already competing with Mazatlan Mexico.
The Chinese are now unloading the majority of the ships here and then trucking the garbage north to LA.
The Chinese can have the cargo container sealed at the dock and it does not have to be re inspected by the Mexican government at the border. And every container load that leaves the country they get back the IVA they paid on entry.
When I first heard the Chinese were going to do this I thought it was because of regulations in the harbor might be less here.
I asked some people involved and they said no The regulations and inspection are tougher here in Mexico.
It is the taxes and surcharges that make it cheaper to stop in Mexico and truck the stuff up to California ..
#5 Feb 5, 2011
Excellent point Ronald! That's what the Mexican Trucking entering the U.S is all about. To avoid union control at that port. What will happen to L.B and all other cities along the water? Who the heck knows but I don't want to have any business or investment along there. As far as those leftist politicians, they'll go down with the ship. They have so much intelligence that they don't bother listening to common sense. They're also lacking in wisdom to administer their intellect properly and will continue to drive down the path of destruction. And the unions will fuel them!
