A feasibility study: Use of actigraph to monitor and follow-up sleep/wake patterns in individuals attending community pharmacy with sleeping disorders
p. 173
Zaswiza Mohamad Noor, Alesha J Smith, Simon S Smith, Lisa M Nissen
Community pharmacists are in a suitable position to give advice and provide appropriate services related to sleep disorders to individuals who are unable to easily access sleep clinics. An intervention with proper objective measure can be used by the pharmacist to assist in consultation.
The study objectives are to evaluate: (1) The effectiveness of a community pharmacy-based intervention in managing sleep disorders and (2) the role of actigraph as an objective measure to monitor and follow-up individuals with sleeping disorders.
Methods and Instruments:
The intervention care group (ICG) completed questionnaires to assess sleep scale scores (Epworth Sleepiness Scale [ESS] and Insomnia Severity Index [ISI]), wore a wrist actigraph, and completed a sleep diary. Sleep parameters (sleep efficiency in percentage [SE%], total sleep time, sleep onset latency, and number of nocturnal awakenings) from actigraphy sleep report were used for consultation and to validate sleep diary. The usual care group (UCG) completed similar questionnaires but received standard care.
Pre- and post-mean scores for sleep scales and sleep parameters were compared between and within groups. A significant difference was observed when comparing pre- and post-mean scores for ISI in the ICG, but not for ESS. For SE%, an increase was found in the number of subjects rated as "good sleepers" at post-assessment in the ICG.
ISI scores offer insights into the development of a community pharmacy-based intervention for sleeping disorders, particularly in those with symptoms of insomnia. It also demonstrates that actigraph could provide objective sleep/wake data to assist community pharmacists during the consultation.

Synthesis, characterization and
in silico
biological activity of some 2-(N,N-dimethyl guanidinyl)-4,6-diaryl pyrimidines
p. 181
Rajasekhar Komarla Kumarachari, Sivakumar Peta, Abdrrahman Shemsu Surur, Yenus Tadesse Mekonnen
As pyrimidine is a basic nucleus in DNA and RNA, it has been found to be associated with diverse biological activities.Pyrimidine derivatives were reported to possess anticonvulsant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antihistaminic. Recently, our team reported the anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial evaluation of some pyrimidines.
To synthesize, predict and evaluate biological activity of some 2-(N,N-dimethyl guanidinyl)-4,6-diaryl pyrimidines.
seven new pyrimidines were synthesized by following the standard procedures using substituted aromatic aldehydes, methyl ketones and metformin. After the biological activity was predicted using PASS, Molinspiration and Osiris property explorer, their anthelmintic activity was evaluated using
Pheretima posthuma
. The structural assignment of the title compounds (P1-7) has been made on the basis of elemental analysis, infrared, 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance and Mass spectral studies.
All the synthesized compounds were found to obey Lipinski's rule. All the synthesized compounds scored good bioactivity values as GPCR ligands and kinase inhibitors. Among the test compounds, P5 was found to be more potent anthelmintic inducing paralysis in 36-48 minutes and death in 40-51 minutes.
Conclusion and Recommendation:
The synthesized compound (P5) possessing methoxy group at position-4 of the benzene ring located at position-4 of pyrimidine exhibited good anthelmintic activity. The study revealed the necessity of synthesizing many more compounds with other substituents at position-4 of the benzene ring located at position-4 of pyrimidine.

Inhibitor designing, virtual screening, and docking studies for methyltransferase: A potential target against dengue virus
p. 188
Jagbir Singh, Mahesh Kumar, Rani Mansuri, Ganesh Chandra Sahoo, Aakash Deep
Aim of this work was to design and identify some S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH) analogs as inhibitors of S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase (MTase) protein using computational approaches.
According to the current scenario the dengue has been a global burden. The people are being killed by dengue virus in an abundant number. Despite of lot of research being going on dengue worldwide, there is no single drug which can kill its virus. This creates an urge for new drug target identification and designing. MTase has been reported as an effective target against dengue virus as it catalyzes an essential step in methylation and capping of viral RNA for viral replication.
Materials and Methods:
The crystal structure of MTase in complex with SAH was used for designing new analogs of SAH. SAH analogs designed were analyzed on the basis of docking, ADMET, and toxicity analysis done using Discovery Studio 3.5.
Seventeen analogs found noncarcinogenic, nonmutagenic, as well as good ADMET properties and good drug-like profile.
These SAH analogs, inhibitors of MTase may act as drugs against dengue virus. Further synthesis and biological testing against dengue virus is under observation.

Knowledge, attitudes, and quality of life of type 2 diabetes patients in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
p. 195
Ibrahim Suliman Al-Aboudi, Mohammed Azmi Hassali, Asrul Akmal Shafie
The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between knowledge and attitude with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional descriptive study was undertaken with a cohort of 75 patients attending the University Diabetic Center at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The EuroQoL-five-dimensional (EQ-5D) scale was used to assess HRQoL. EQ-5D was scored using values derived from the UK general population survey. The brief diabetic knowledge test in questionnaire format developed by the University of Michigan Diabetes Research and Training Center and the attitude toward self-care questionnaire based on the diabetic care profile were used.
Fifty-eight (77.35%) respondents were male with a mean 12.6 ± 8.4 years of a history of diabetes. Thirty-four (45.3%) were in the age group of 45–55 years with a mean age of 54 ± 9.2 years. A moderate level of HRQoL (0.71 ± 0.22) was recorded in the study cohort. The mean EQ-5D score was lower in females compared to male patients (0.58 ± 0.23 vs. 0.74 ± 0.20). The mean score of Michigan Diabetic Knowledge Test was 8.96 ± 2.1 and the median score was 9.00. Of 75 diabetic patients, 14.7% had poor knowledge; 72% had moderate knowledge, and only 13.3% had good knowledge. The average attitude score of all respondents was 6.38 ± 2.11. There was a significant positive association between attitude and EQ-5D score.
HRQoL and knowledge scores were moderate in type 2 diabetic patients in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Patient attitude toward the disease was positive, and this was positively associated with HRQoL; most respondents believed they are responsible for their care. It is likely that a high quality of diabetes self-management education program will provide benefits and affect significantly on type 2 diabetes patients in Saudi Arabia.

Malaysian consumers' awareness, perception, and attitude toward cosmetic products: Questionnaire development and pilot testing
p. 203
Ain Ayob, Ammar Ihsan Awadh, Hazrina Hadi, Juliana Jaffri, Shazia Jamshed, Hawa Mas Azmar Ahmad
Increased usage of cosmetic products has caused a growing concern about the safety of these products, and yet little is known about cosmetics from the consumers' perspective. Hence, this study's aim is to develop a valid and reliable tool for assessing consumers' awareness, perceptions, and attitudes toward cosmetic products.
Materials and Methods:
A questionnaire was developed in the English language based on information collected from a literature search, in-depth interviews conducted with consumers prior to this study and consultations with experts. Subsequently, the questionnaire was subjected to translation, validation, and test-retest reliability. A final version of the questionnaire was piloted among 66 consumers via convenient sampling. A descriptive analysis was performed, and the internal consistency and the differences between variables in the questionnaire were analyzed.
The developed and translated questionnaire produced repeatable data for each of the domains (Spearman's correlation ≥ 0.7,
< 0.001). The internal consistency for awareness, perceptions and attitudes indicates good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha value of more than 0.7 for each domain). Significant differences were found between the perception scores for the race, religion, and monthly expenses for cosmetic products, respectively, and the same pattern was found for the attitude scores, but monthly expenses for cosmetic products was replaced by monthly income.
The results achieved via the Bahasa Malaysia questionnaire indicated that the developed and translated questionnaire can be used as a valid and reliable tool for assessing consumers' awareness, perceptions, and attitudes toward cosmetic products in Malaysia in future studies.

p. 210
Mainak Chakraborty, Indrajit Karmakar, Sagnik Haldar, Avratanu Das, Asis Bala, Pallab Kanti Haldar
The present study evaluates the antioxidant effect of methanol extract of
Hippophae salicifolia
(MEHS) bark with special emphasis on its role on oxidative DNA damage in mouse peritoneal macrophages.
Material and Methods:
In vitro
antioxidant activity was estimated by standard antioxidant assays whereas the antioxidant activity concluded the H
donating capacity. Mouse erythrocytes' hemolysis and peritoneal macrophages' DNA damage were determined spectrophotometrically.
In vivo
antioxidant activity of MEHS was determined in carbon tetrachloride-induced mice by studying its effect on superoxide anion production in macrophages cells, superoxide dismutase in the cell lysate, DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, and reduces glutathione.
The extract showed good
in vitro
antioxidant activities whereas the inhibitory concentrations values ranged from 5.80 to 106.5 μg/ml. MEHS significantly (
< 0.05) attenuated the oxidative DNA damage. It also attenuated the oxidative conversion of hemoglobin to methemoglobin and elevation of enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant in cells.
The result indicates MEHS has good
in vitro
in vivo
antioxidant property as well as the protective effect on DNA and red blood cell may be due to its H
donating property.

Self-medication practices among female students of higher educational institutions in Selangor, Malaysia: A quantitative insight
p. 217
Shazia Qasim Jamshed, Pei Se Wong, Heng Chin Yi, Gan Siaw Yun, Muhammad Umair Khan, Akram Ahmad
World Health Organization has defined self-medication as the selection and use of medications (including herbal and traditional product) by individuals to treat self-recognized illnesses or symptoms. The prevalence of self-medication is reported to be higher among female students.
To investigate the awareness and self-medication practices among female students of higher education institutions in Malaysia.
A descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted in four higher education institutes of Selangor, Malaysia. Convenience sampling approach was used to collect data from a sample 475 students. A "pretested" questionnaire was used as a study instrument.
A total of 461 questionnaires were returned (response rate 97.05%). The prevalence of self-medication among female students in higher educational institutions was 57.2% (
= 262). The most common source of self-prescribed medicine was a pharmacy or clinics (
= 206; 45%). It was found that antipyretics were the most common medications used without doctor's consultation (
= 212; 89.1%). Analgesics and antipyretics (
= 79; 62.7%) were highly recommended by students to their family and friends. The common reason for self-medication was prior successful experience (
= 102, 81.0%). The majority of respondents (
= 280; 61.1%) reported that they believed over-the-counter medications were as effective as medications prescribed by a doctor.
The prevalence of self-medication practice among female students in the sample of the four higher education institutions was moderate. More studies are required to generalize these findings across Malaysia.

Utilization study of antidiabetic agents in a teaching hospital of Sikkim and adherence to current standard treatment guidelines
p. 223
Sushrut Varun Satpathy, Supratim Datta, Binu Upreti
Diabetes has gradually emerged as one of the most serious public health problems in our country. This underlines the need for timely disease detection and decisive therapeutic intervention. This prospective cross-sectional observational study aims at analyzing the utilization pattern of antidiabetic agents in a remote North-East Indian tertiary care teaching hospital in the perspective of current standard treatment guidelines.
Materials and Methods:
Diabetic patients receiving antidiabetic medication, both as outpatients and inpatients in our hospital over a period of 12 months (May 2013–May 2014), were included in this study. The data obtained were sorted and analyzed on the basis of gender, type of therapy, and hospital setting.
A total of 310 patients were included in the study. Metformin was the single most frequently prescribed antidiabetic agent (66.8%) followed by the sulfonylureas group (37.4%). Insulin was prescribed in 23.2% of the patients. Combination antidiabetic drug therapy (65.1%) was used more frequently than monotherapy (34.8%). The use of biguanides (
< 0.0001) and sulfonylureas (
= 0.02) in combination was significant as compared to their use as monotherapy. A total of 48% of all antidiabetic combinations used, comprised metformin and sulfonylureas (
= 96). Insulin use was significantly higher as monotherapy and in inpatients (
< 0.0001). The utilization of drugs from the National List of Essential Medicines was 51.2%, while 11% of antidiabetics were prescribed by generic name.
The pattern of utilization largely conforms to the current standard treatment guidelines. Increased use of generic drugs is an area with scope for improvement.

p. 229
Ain Ayob, Ammar Ihsan Awadh, Juliana Jafri, Shazia Jamshed, Hawa Mas Azmar Ahmad, Hazrina Hadi
Variety of cosmetic products was used in our daily life, yet the amount and types of the cosmetic products used by the consumers were varied, which may be due to the different perspectives held by each of the consumers.
To explore consumers' perspectives toward cosmetic products.
An interview guide was developed with a set of 12 semistructured questions. Participants in Kuantan, Pahang were recruited via the purposive sampling, and they undergo in-depth face-to-face interviews. All of the interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and were analyzed via thematic content analysis.
For the awareness of cosmetic products, less aware about the cosmetic products in Malaysia were noted among the participants. In terms of perceptions about the cosmetic products, participants expressed positive perceptions toward natural cosmetic products, quality were seen as synonymous with branded products and halal certification. Next, for the attitude toward the use of cosmetic products, participants were influenced by ingredients, product brand, and halal certification. Based on personal experiences, they provide complaints and suggestions for the enhancement of cosmetic products' quality.
Participants were found to have less awareness about the cosmetic products in Malaysia. Besides, they realized about the chemical ingredients and halal certification for the cosmetic products. Therefore, they held positive perceptions and practiced positive attitudes toward natural and halal cosmetic products. Finally, adverse reactions from the use of cosmetic products were commonly experienced by the participants, which contributed mainly by the ingredients. Thus, they hoped for serious approached to be enacted to solve this problem.

Emergency contraception: Knowledge and attitude toward its use among medical students of a medical college in North-West India
p. 235
Rajiv Kumar Gupta, Sunil Kumar Raina, Aruna Kumari Verma, Tejali Shora
Emergency contraception (EC) is use of drug or device to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse. Unlike other regular methods of contraception which are taken prior to the sexual act, EC is used after the unprotected sex.
To assess the knowledge and attitude toward use of emergency contraceptives among medical students.
Setting and Design:
A cross-sectional questionnaire based study was conducted among all the medical students in the Government Medical College in North-West India.
Subjects and Methods:
A questionnaire seeking information on knowledge and attitude of undergraduate medical students was administered over a period of 4 weeks in the month of February and March 2014.
Statistical Analysis:
The data were entered in MS excel and expressed using percentages. Chi-square test was used as a test of statistical significance.
About 61.6% (247/401) of the participants were aware about the timing of use of EC. Audio visual media (76.6%; 307/401) was the most common source of information for of these medical students.
The lack of appropriate in-depth knowledge of EC among future health care professional should alarm the medical teaching system as EC is the only method that can be used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive accident.

p. 240
Ramadan Mohamed Elkalmi, Akshaya Srikanth Bhagavathul, Adamu Ya'u, Sami Abdo Radman Al-Dubai, Tarek M Elsayed, Akram Ahmad, Wael Mohamed
The objectives of this study were to assess the general public views and familiarity toward electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) in Kuantan, Malaysia.
A total of 277 Kuantan people were involved in this study. The questionnaire was distributed at random in shops, businesses, and public places in Kuantan. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS (version 17.0).
From 400 participants, a total number of 277 (160, 57.7% men and 117, 42.4% women) respondents completed the questionnaire. The mean age was 26.89 ± 9.8 years old. The majority of the study participants were male (57.7%), Malay (83.8%), Muslims (83.8%), singles (69%), and employed (75.8%), with about 83 (29.9%) of the respondents were smokers. The prevalence of e-cigarettes smokers was found to be only 1.4% (
= 4). About one-third of the respondents (
= 72, 26%) have tried e-cigarette before. Job status was significantly associated with smoking e-cigarette among the population (
= 0.02). Main factors for a person to start e-cigarette smoking were curiosity (37.5%) and cheaper price (40.8%). Majority of respondents agreed that e-cigarette would not affect health as normal cigarette, and that variety of flavors contribute to better enjoyment (51.6% and 66.7%, respectively).
The results of the current study demonstrate that the prevalence of e-cigarettes smoking and its popularity, familiarity, and knowledge are still insufficient among Kuantan population. Further studies should be done to tackle this problem before it getting worse.

p. 248
Pooja M Vachhani, Manish N Solanki, Mira K Desai
Evaluation and comparison of ethical standards of published drug promotional literatures (DPLs) between different Indian and non-Indian scientific medical journals regarding compliance to the World Health Organization (WHO) and International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations (IFPMAs) guidelines.
Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional, observational study was carried out at pharmacology department. DPLs published in Indian and non-Indian scientific medical journals available at central library of medical college during the period of 6 months were collected according to selection criteria. DPLs were evaluated and compared for compliance to ethical standards of drug promotion laid by the WHO and IFPMA. Data were analyzed using Fisher's exact test.
Out of total 178 DPLs, 103 DPLs were from Indian journals and 75 DPLs were from non-Indian journals. When compared regarding compliance to all the 11 ethical criteria of WHO, no significant difference was found between DPLs published in Indian and non-Indian journals. However, DPLs from indian journals contained significantly less information regarding dosage regimen (
= 0.0096), adverse drug reactions (
= 0.0028), warnings (
= 0.0104) and major drug interactions (
< 0.0001) as compared to non-Indian journals. Compliance to all the five IFPMA criteria was significantly higher in DPLs of non-Indian journals (88%) than Indian journals (39%) (
< 0.0001).
Noncompliance to ethical standards of WHO and IFPMA guidelines is more common in DPLs of Indian journals as compared to non-Indian journals. Thus strict implementation of regulatory measures regarding DPLs published in Indian medical journals is recommended.

Enhancement of inhibitory neurotransmission and inhibition of excitatory mechanisms underlie the anticonvulsant effects of Mallotus oppositifolius
p. 253
Kennedy Kwami Edem Kukuia, Elvis Ofori Ameyaw, Eric Woode, Priscilla Kolibea Mante, Donatus Wewura Adongo
Mallotus oppositifolius
is a shrub that is used traditionally to treat epilepsy, but its potential has not been scientifically validated.
This study investigated the anticonvulsant properties and possible mechanism of action of the 70% v/v hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves of
M. oppositifolius.
Materials and Methods:
Inprinting control region (ICR) mice (25–30 g) were pretreated with the
M. oppositifolius
leaf extract (10–100 mg/kg) before administering the respective convulsants (pentylenetetrazole [PTZ], picrotoxin [PTX], strychnine [STR], 4-aminopyridine [4-AP], and pilocarpine). The effect of the extract in maximal electroshock seizure (MES) model was investigated also.
Statistical Analysis:
Data were presented as mean ± standard error of the mean and were analyzed with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) or two-way ANOVA where appropriate with Newman–Keuls or Bonferroni
post hoc
test respectively.
< 0.05 was considered significant.
In both PTX and PTZ test, extract delayed the onset of seizures and reduced the frequency and duration of seizures. In the STR-induced seizure test, the extract significantly delayed the onset of seizures and reduced the duration of seizures. The extract also delayed the onset of clonic and tonic seizures as well as increasing the survival of mice in the 4-AP-induced seizure test. It further reduced the duration of tonic limb extensions in the MES test. In the pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus, the extract significantly delayed the onset of clonic convulsions and reduced the frequency and duration of seizures. Moreover, the anticonvulsant effect of the extract was attenuated by flumazenil, a benzodiazepine/gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor antagonist.
These findings show that the extract has anticonvulsant effect possible mediated by GABAergic, glycinergic neurotransmission, and potassium channel conductions. It may also be acting by antagonizing muscarinic receptor activation and N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptor activation.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

For the love of Typography April 2nd, 2016
As most of my design and graphics students know, I'm a bit of a type geek. In almost every class, even if it's not in our regular syllabus, I try to include at least a brief introduction to Type as Design – or, Typography.
And, you probably also know how I stress the idea of kerning – the way individual letterforms fit together, as a method of refining your work, adding a cohesive look and confirming that you've taken some time and put in some effort at making your type look good, as well as read well.
Today, I found an excellent infographic at Digital Synopsis.com, that may help you to make better decisions about how to improve your Headers, your Titles, and all display type. Take a look!

Really Interesting and Informative Typography Article March 20th, 2016
As almost all of my students know, I'm a bit of a type geek. So, imagine how fulfilled my inner geek feels, when I find blog post about Typefaces, Type Structure, Type families, Type anatomy, and Type Classification, the use of Type in Paragraphs, Typographic Terms like kerning and spacing, Page Layout and Type, and so much more!
Although this article is written with a focus on software development, the article is about DESIGN. Knowing what you're using, and why. As I always say "in design, you can always break the rules, but first you have to know what the rules are!"
I seriously recommend this article to all my design students, my motion graphics students, my still image students, and anyone else who feels that Type is more than just a way to make a word show up.

Adobe is Severely Limiting it's Font Installations August 26th, 2015
In a recent article on InDesign Secrets, I can finally find the reason why so many of my InDesign classes have been having font errors when using files from the Adobe courseware. It seems that InDesign – and all of the Adobe programs, for that matter, are no longer installing the fonts that used to come with the programs! I've been using Adobe programs for too many years than I want to count, so of course, I have the fonts installed, but so many of my students are downloading demo software for their classes, and work in an environment with security limitations, so they can't easily access Adobe's Typekit (part of the Creative Cloud suite).
In my opinion, this is a terrible move on Adobe's part, and I can't quite figure out why they're choosing to do it. Over the years, I've seen Adobe seemingly losing touch with their users in quite a few ways, but in software that's ABOUT design, I can't imagine what they're thinking.
To view the post on InDesignSecrets.com, please visit http://indesignsecrets.com/adobe-drops-fonts-leaves-users-stranded.php
There's an earlier article about the issue here: http://indesignsecrets.com/happened-fonts-indesign.php (which includes a work-around)
And, for a list of the fonts originally installed, and mostly still necessary, please see Adobe's article here: http://www.adobe.com/products/type/creative-suite-6-installed-fonts.html
As for me, I've backed up ALL of my installed fonts into a directory I use for my font management program. I suggest you do the same. If you'd like instructions for doing so, please comment on this post.

InDesign Font Management – with new CC feature that makes things easier! August 20th, 2013
Adobe TV has offered a new tutorial on how to manage missing fonts in an InDesign document. As you know, with InDesign, if you don't have a particular font installed on your system, you will receive errors when you open a file that uses those fonts. This tutorial shows the Find Font feature that's existed in InDesign for several versions going back. However, at 5:23 in the video, this instructor will reveal a VERY cool new feature to manage fonts in InDesign CC. Take a look!

ABC 2009 Fall Schedule vs. 2008 Fall Schedule By The Numbers
ABC has announced its 2009-10 schedule. Compared to 2008 it has lots more new shows, far more new show time, and slightly less unscripted show time. ABC is going with a lineup of entirely new shows on Wednesday night but is keeping Saturday and Sunday nights unchanged. They're putting a presumably cheap scripted show (Ugly Betty) on Friday nights. Here is a look at its Fall 2009 Schedule vs. its Fall 2008 Schedule by the Numbers.

How hot is it in the western US? Real hot
(AP) – The heat wave gripping the western U.S. is one of the worst in years, with desert locations in the Southwest seeing temperatures approach 120 degrees. To give some perspective, here are five facts about the punishing nature of the heat.
The desert valley in California will see temperatures approach 130 degrees. The hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth occurred in Death Valley with a reading of 134 degrees, almost 100 years ago to the day in 1913. The park is dotted with locations such as Furnace Creek and Dante's View, and officials are urging people to exercise extreme caution. But sweltering heat is often a big draw for visitors to Death Valley National Park _ especially tourists from Europe _ with hotels already booked solid during the hotter months of July and August.
As if temperatures nearing 120 degrees weren't bad enough, it's even hotter inside cars and on concrete and asphalt roads and sidewalks. It can get to 200 degrees on asphalt during peak summer temperatures, presenting all sorts of hazards. Drivers should keep pets and children out of locked cars, and a person who suffers a fall on a sidewalk or a street could end up in the burn unit.
It's common in cities like Phoenix to see pet owners place booties on the paws of their dogs to keep the animals from burning on the blazing heat of streets and sidewalks. As a result, pet owners are urged to walk their dogs during morning and evening hours to protect them from the heat.
Bigger jetliners can handle temperatures around 126 and 127 degrees, but airlines are closely monitoring the conditions and smaller planes may have flights delayed. When the temperature gets real hot, the air becomes less dense and changes liftoff conditions.
The easiest way to beat the heat in cities such as Phoenix is to flee the desert for higher-elevation mountain cities such as Flagstaff, Sedona and Prescott. But there won't be much of a break from during this hot spell. Flagstaff could approach the record Saturday of 97 degrees, and Sedona could be in the 110 range.

Dear Sirs:
The date/time stamp for the last successful sitemap creation is of two days ago. I've attempted using the "rebuild the sitempa" text link in the control panel, but the "last build process" still reflects stale/old build.
Also, doesn't Google require a capital "S" for the Sitemap filename reference?? I would think that would be the default.
Please advise asap and thanks for the assistance.

AZUSA >> A fire tore through a commercial building in Azusa Friday night, authorities said.
The fire was first reported about 7 p.m. in the 500 block of South Vincent Avenue, Los Angeles County Fire Department Dispatch Supervisor Art Marrujo said.
"Our first-in engine company had smoke and fire coming in through the roof," Los Angeles County Fire Department Inspector Randall Wright said. "Very quickly, we asked for a second alarm," bringing additional firefighters to the scene.
Portions of the roof of the building collapsed, he said.
They took a "defensive" stance from the outside of the building as they continued dousing the flames with water more than an hour later, fire Dispatch Supervisor Kyle Sanford said.
The fire was fueled by a large amount of paper stored inside the building, described as a paper manufacturing business, Wright said. There were no reports of hazardous materials involved.
Firefighters positioned on ladders well above the fire pumped 3,000 gallons of water per minute onto the burning building, officials said.
Authorities declared the fire extinguished about 8:15 p.m., but expected firefighters to remain on scene well into the night, Wright said.
Paramedics treated one person who suffered minor smoke inhalation injuries, but the person declined to be taken to a hospital, Sandford said.
Azusa police shut down Vincent Avenue between Arrow Highway and Gladstone Street as a result of the fire.
Investigators were summoned to the scene to determine the cause of the fire.

first letter* doesnt look narrow on the top (like L, A, I, J). btw why are these even in english? is this just a teaser for english players? idk if jps are doing demo's for vanafest also
lettucehate 2346 days ago
im not sure what this might be, havent tried any of these Photoshop tricks, but it doesnt look like the second letter is large, maybe 3rd or 4th. i dont think Atomos or Stoneskin, 2nd letter looks rounded on top, and Lakshmi looks possible, but first lett
Lolredranger 2347 days ago
Atomos, maybe?
Someone said it looks like Stoneskin, I was thinking maybe if it is a summon, Alexander, same length, and word shape... maybe.. lol
azriellthewise, you don't need the quotes around single words in a macro
You can have /ma cure , but you
Tsuzee83 2347 days ago
Definitely looks like /ma followed by some 6 letter word. After much work in photoshop I can't get the image to clear up anymore. I put it up on my photobucket(Tsuzee) if it helps anyone.

Don't let this photo put you into a fix! It's just these silly dev's and their dirty tricks. You summoner's are just looking way too hard! Make yourself useful and go level bard.
zachecho 2350 days ago
I tried to photoshop some macro windows of my own, and Lakshmi doesn't quite fit. Whatever it is, seems to start with a G or O or something rounded, and it looks like 6 letters. I stopped trying....for now
Kap66 2351 days ago
Looks like "/ma Stoneskin " thats my guess too.
azriellthewise 2351 days ago
The shape of the word "Lakshmi" is certainly similar to that of the word in the pic. The one thing I can't make out are the quotes that would be around the spell/summon. Perhaps they're there and I just don't see them, or perhaps it was an oversight
zachecho 2352 days ago
/ma Lakshmi < me >
It's an old esper, if you type it in in-game it's the same length, and it matches the letter heights
TwilightSea 2352 days ago
Summon macro? I seriously doubt it. There are no new summons. SE fucking lied.
MaachaQ 2353 days ago
Really looks like a summoning macro, I was at fanfest 2 years ago when they said we'd be getting more than 1... maybe for real now?
Philjitsu 2353 days ago
short to be < t > , and looks more like < me > , was cut out from post below :3
Philjitsu 2353 days ago
well last bit looks to short to be , looks more like at the end. And I agree with sevokevo looks like /ma at the start! /ma "new summon" ? s1= summon1?
ShadupJoe 2353 days ago
Target looks like . It's too short to be and too long to be .
sevokevo 2353 days ago
Looks like it is /ma so it is a spell!

Melanoma/Skin Cancer Health Center
Understanding Skin Cancer -- Symptoms
In this article
What Are the Symptoms of Skin Cancer?
If you are in a high-risk group for skin cancer or have ever been treated for some form of the disease, you should familiarize yourself with how skin cancers look. Examine your skin from head to toe every few months, using a full-length mirror and hand mirror to check your mouth, nose, scalp, palms, soles, backs of ears, genital area, and between the buttocks. Cover every inch of skin and pay special attention to moles and sites of previous skin cancer. If you find a suspicious growth, have it examined by your dermatologist.
The general warning signs of skin cancer include:

- An open or inflamed skin wound that won't heal
Melanoma, the most dangerous type of skin cancer, may appear as:
- A change in an existing mole
- A small, dark, multicolored spot with irregular borders -- either elevated or flat -- that may bleed and form a scab

This is a good campground for both seasonal and temporary stays. The owners are very friendly, which makes up for the "rustic" bathrooms. Many campers are seasonal, but they do have several sites available for shorter stays. We only stayed two nights and were welcomed in with open arms. The water views are minimal, but the campground is well maintained. - wanderfilledlife
Oct 2015 - $35.00
This is an older park with most sites taken up with long term, seasonal campers. The transient sites are long, gravel pull-throughs which have plenty of space all the way around; long enough so we didn't have to unhook our tow. Rate reflects Good Sam discount for full hookups/30amp. This is a Passport America park, but we'd forgotten to look it up before checking in for the night. It looks like there are a lot of family activities during the summer. Park was to close Oct. 11 for the season. Important note for this park: charcoal lighting fluid is prohibited due to severe allergies of a long-term seasonal camper. - DiplomatTraveler
Aug 2015 - $35.00
We called ahead and were told the wifi was working - it doesn't work at all but we were able to use computer in the office. Unfortunately American cell service isn't available either unless you walk behind the office.
The site was good and convenient - the location of the park was good and occasionally you can catch a glimpse of the water. Beautiful skies at night!
Lots of activities planned and more than half of campers are permanent or weekend campers from New Brunswick. Easy in and out and our site was fairly level. - Catsinatrailer

Most of the sites are seasonal. The sites for people like us were for the most part to the point that people have to use boards to drive on or place them under the jacks to get level. There is no sewer but they do have a pump out service if needed plus a dump. Water pressure is terrible so we had to use the pump for decent pressure. Our 30 amp electric plug was burned to the point I would not use it so I switched to another connection. Getting to the campground requires travel over a 1/2 mile rocky dirt road which I didn't like. - Mooney 201 Pilot
Apr 2016 - $16.00
Out of the way down an old road and then a dirt road that is very bad and I thought I may have to use 4-wheel drive to get in to the campground. Once in, the roads are dirt & dusty but manageable. The pull-through sites are uneven grass and you will need blocks to set up. No sewer but a dump station. Nice people and nice lake once in there but not a destination to go for in the area. Was very clean. - morgan10

Stayed here when we decided to cross the border ahead of our original plan. Actually in Red Beach south of Calais on route one. Found this online because it is a Passport America location, though we are not members. Very un-level sites on a grassy field, not private. Apparently mostly seasonals down the hill by the water where kids were swimming. Dirty bathroom with graffiti on unpainted press wood walls. Overflowing dumpster. OK for a low cost overnight just to sleep but would choose another place next time. - NC Writer

I am having a hard time deciding how to review this park. It has good points and bad, but over-all, I am really disappointed. Pros - It is located very close to the US/CA border, so was very convenient after a long day of traveling. And, the office staff is very friendly. We did not use the wash-rooms or laundry, but they do look clean at a glance. There is a pool, playground, and Wi-Fi. Cons -Island View has gravel roads, and since it was raining when we arrived, they were very sloshy. Wi-Fi signal is strong, but extremely SLOW. Sites are grass, a bit tight, & ours was not level. Mostly, I just found this park depressing. It impressed me as being a not-so-lovely trailer park. There are lots of long term patrons who seem to have been here for quite a while, and their sites reflect it. I get the impression that these folks are full time residents, not seasonal campers. I generally don't have a problem with long term tenants, but these creeped me out a little. I didn't see an entrance to the ocean view, but I suspect there must be one toward the rear of the park. Adequate for an overnight stay, but certainly not a destination. - User1622
Jul 2011 - $30.00
We rarely camp this close to home (15 miles) however we are certainly glad we did. Previous posts showed waterfront as being river, however this campground is on part of the Bay of Fundy with 26 foot tides. Site was level and although not spacious, it was more than adequate. Busy holiday weekend. The takeout at the office is a must visit. Excellent haddock & clams. Staff was friendly and accommodating. - utopia52

We had some difficulty when making our reservation. Phone number didn't work. It took several emails to get our reservation confirmed, but we did book via email several weeks before our stay. We called the day before arriving (number worked this time) and they didn't see our reservation but they thankfully still had a spot available. Site 12 faces the water, we loved the view of the changing tides. - 4RollingGs
May 2016 - $33.00
It is carpark camping with a great waterview if you spring for a waterfront site and pay the premium. We didn't, but got a water view anyway since we are so early in the season and the CG was virtually empty except for the seasonals, and very few of them were occupied.
Points were only lost for the very tight side to side sites and iffy WIFI. Hate to imagine what the WIFI is like when the CG is full and remote routers are blocked by campers and demand on use. - Veebyes
Sep 2015 - $33.00
This is a very well maintained campground, with helpful staff at check in, they are a mine of information on anything to do with St Andrews. Interior road is paved. Our long and level ocean front site was gravel, sewer hook ups were on both sides, so we pulled right in and had a wonderful view of the ocean. Big rig access was good. Very quiet at night and some privacy around our RV, space for the towed, a picnic table and a fire ring. There were a lot of seasonal sites, but all were neat and tidy. Bathrooms were spacious and spotless, and the laundry was clean and well equipped. Pet friendly with doggie bags but no disposal stations. WiFi and cell were both good. St Andrews is a gem of a small town, it's a short walk into town from the campground, and has food stores, unique shops and restaurants. We would stay here again, it's the perfect place to sit and watch the water, fishing boats and sunsets. - tobyjug

They tell you what it is, and it is what it is. There are 5 or 6 sites in a parking lot. Site 1 and 2 are full hookups, although site 2 has the hookup to water that is located in site 1. 50 amp is available in site 1 and 2. The other sites are just electric: no water, no sewer. There is a pool at the motor inn, but it was closed. I think it would be available to RV users. No bathrooms or showers. It is convenient for an overnight stop after crossing the border and to the grocery store, Wal-Mart, and downtown. Great place to stop and re-provision after Canada. The motor inn staff were friendly and helpful. We would use this place again. - Florida Bob

No one was in the office when we arrived, we had to call a number on the door and wait for service. We were placed on a tiny lot, among large seasonal lots. Grounds are unkept - little mowing done, playground is old and unmaintained, beach is grown in with weeds, the whole place is generally untidy and dated. Little staff available for help, and those working offer help with an unfriendly attitude. If you're looking for a Griswold family vacation - look no further. Very disappointing, the pictures displayed on the website are deceiving. We did find the neighbors friendly, and the little canteen did offer ice cream and other treats. Overall - a disappointing stay. We won't be back! - Mrs E

We had tried calling this campground ahead for reservations, there was a voice mail answering machine stating: "No reservations were needed for the upcoming weekend." We left a message stating our needs and never received a return call. When we arrived at the campground the office was open but there was no one at the office. After waiting around a bit we noticed a phone # on the front door with instructions to call this # if no one is in office. We called the number, it went to a message machine. Left a message stating we were at the front office/gate. Waited some 10 minutes or so, then decided to drive around to look for a site. While doing so a man in a ATV came up and was a bit rude asking what we were doing and why we didn't call the # on the door. When we said we did, he took his phone out of his pocket, waived it around and said, "You didn't call me." We showed him the dialed # on our cell phone. The guy affirmed that it was the correct # but something must be wrong with our phone! A Bit Rude if you ask me. If it hadn't been late we would have left. Was just an overnight stop. - Bob & Linda

This is camping heaven for those that enjoy private sites, beautiful scenery, and true camping. No hookups means you are back to basics or must rely on being self-contained. Not for those that like camping resorts and planned activities. Hiking trails are available, relaxing by the shore is the highlight. Very nice tent sites available as well. - Pickycamper
May 2008 - $19.00
We stayed here for 15 days in a waterfront site with a nice view of the tidal basin. We really enjoyed our stay at this very quiet pretty park. The CG is well maintained, grass is cut and the gravel roads are in good condition. We would rate this CG an 8 if the sites were level and easier to get large rigs in and out of the sites. Having said that, there are a few large rig sites which have water views and many others that are surrounded by trees. There are also many tent sites or sites for small campers which have good water views. Almost all sites are well separated from the adjacent sites and provide good privacy. Be aware that there is: no water at camp sites, no elect and no sewer. No flush toilets. There is one central shower facility with good hot water. Showers are 25 cents for 5 minutes on the honor system. I would recommend this CG to anyone wanting a nice quiet pretty camping experience. - A-S_Travels

Some great tent sites and there are some RV sites on the Bay. There is no electricity and most of the camping areas have pit toilets and water but the entrance of the campground has a nice washroom with showers. Great for hikes and for clamming when the biggest tides of the Bay of Fundy go out! - gsnakehill

Georgeous view of Passamaquoddy Bay and Canadian Islands (Deer, Campobello) from waterfront sites. Extremely helpful staff, particularly day clerk. Nearby lobster "pounds" have thousands of lobsters at bargain prices for those who cook on-site. Wi-Fi weak except near office; only 1st 1/2 hour free; $3/hour after that; must use all the time in one sitting. Pull-through sites have full hookups and, in waterview area, easy satellite coverage. On-site restaurant closed after Labor Day and in-town places on reduced schedule. 27' tide dramatically illustrated at local harbor. No rental cars available. - Mtmoi

This is the kind of place we like to keep a secret, all to ourselves, but it has to be one of our favorite places. When we were here, there were only 2 other sites taken, so the electric was fine, the cable was fine, the restrooms, the laundry, the wifi all fine. The view here is spectacular, the park was well taken care of. I can see that the sites would feel cramped if it was full, but I would overlook that because of the location. The pup had beautiful green grass to walk on. As you can tell, we will stay here again. - Living the Dream

The North Eastern most RV park in the US. Great location, right on the Bay with fantastic views. And what a sunset we had the first night we were there. Probably the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen! The large manicured grassy pull-thru sites have electric and water, a picnic table and a fire pit. No sewer but they have a dump station. A very friendly gal signs you in and provides a lot of good information on the local area. One restaurant she recommended, Uncle Kippy's was great. We had a whole lobster diner for $17! - Michael Kibler

A Must stay ! History, scenery, local flavor and a favorable exchange rate (rate listed in US $) make this a Fabulous opportunity in an Excellent campground. No water, sewer or WiFi at any NB provincial parks but good 30a elec. I arrived via the ferry from Deer Island which was a bit pricey with a trailer and then left via bridge back into Maine (free). You could just come and go via bridge but the only way to discover more of New Brunswick is to take the ferry or go all the way around to Calais to enter Canada. This "one way" aspect of visiting this island may be why it had so few visitors in the campground, but the National Park and local island people make it a "must visit" for me ! NO FUEL or real Grocery on the island so plan ahead. I chose a site in the woods, which could be a little tight for maneuvering and level but it worked for me and my 33' 5th wheel. There is also a large open field which would be big rig friendly. Good laundry ($1.50C wash $1.25C dry), excellent clean restrooms and showers, a large pavilion with wood stove and open fire cooking available for groups, mosquitoes (bring your spray), large children's play area and a must visit National Park ! 9 hole golf course 3 min. away, local beach at Friar's Head, fish markets and lots of local flavor. Highly recommend a visit and I would certainly stay again. - SailorGolf

This is quite a nice Provincial Park with some very wooded back-in sites and other drive-through sites in an open field area. Roomy bathrooms, fairly clean. Hard to make reservations (no online system) except by waiting until May or June to call, however the park was not full so not a problem. You can walk down to the rocky beach with icy cold water, also to the golf course which has a nice small restaurant with an outdoor deck. Staff was pleasant and had firewood available for sale. We picked up a few Maine TV stations on our antenna. No Wi-Fi, but they will direct you to the local library where you can sit outside and get a signal even when it is closed. Park is convenient to Roosevelt home. - NC Writer

The folks over at Norman's Farm Market have a corn addiction. I am not referring to the corn addiction that America has (sorry Michael Pollan), I am referring to Farmer John's steadfast resolve to gather the sweetest most delicious corn possible to their customers. John has been known to wait overnight to secure the best corn local farms have to offer. After tasting our corn raw, I wondered why people even bother boiling their corn. It is absolutely amazing raw. This weekend, we were fortunate to have a double share of our CSA because we had been on a cruise enjoying the wonderful food of Carnival Cruise lines. Did I say wonderful food? I meant to say, absolutely terrible, but that is another story.
Anyway, we had a double share last week, which meant a lot of corn and a lot of cherry tomatoes. Friday night, I prepared a corn salad with two types of cherry tomatoes, chives, basil and extra virgin olive oil. The salad was so good, I made it again Sunday night. This is one of those salads that you can throw together whatever is fresh and available. I had some chives leftover from another recipe, tons of basil from my front yard, and I am always looking for an excuse to drizzle really good olive oil over a dish. This is a great salad to make ahead and very refreshing for those hot summer barbecues.
Corn Salad
- 3 ears of corn
- 1 handful each of red cherry tomatoes, orange cherry tomatoes
- Salt and pepper
- Fresh chives and bail
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Slice the kernels off of the corn into a large bowl, dip your hand into running water then drag it through the corn and most of the silk will attach it self to your hand.
- Slice the tomatoes and herbs.
- Add salt and pepper to taste, mix, then top with really good extra virgin olive oil.

NEW YORK — Sarah Davies, Nordstrom's corporate fashion director, left the company last week "for personal reasons," according to the Seattle-based specialty chain.
This confirms a report in these columns Wednesday that Davies, a 25-year veteran of the store, had left.
A Nordstrom spokeswoman said the forecasting and fashion direction responsibilities held by Davies would be picked up by corporate merchandisers and regional fashion staffs. A successor will not be named. As corporate fashion director, Davies attended designer ready-to-wear shows here and abroad. Cindy Paur, executive vice president and corporate merchandise manager for better women's apparel, will cover the collections and provide fashion information to the chain. She was at the Paris collections last week.
Nordstrom's nine regional offices has buying teams and fashion directors or fashion coordinators tailoring assortments to local tastes.
Paur was executive vice president in charge of sales promotion before shifting to women's apparel about seven weeks ago.
