Following is a summary of current health news briefs.
Bioengineer developing needle-free "nanopatch" vaccines
LONDON (Reuters) - When it comes to protecting millions of people from deadly infectious diseases, Mark Kendall thinks a fingertip-sized patch covered in thousands of vaccine-coated microscopic spikes is the future. A biomedical engineer with a fascination for problem solving, he has developed the so-called "nanopatch" to try to transform delivery of life-saving vaccines against potential killers like flu and the HPV virus that causes cervical cancer.
Terminally ill woman loses first Irish right-to-die case
DUBLIN (Reuters) - An Irish woman who is terminally ill with multiple sclerosis lost her battle for the lawful right to die in the first case of its kind to be brought in Ireland, Dublin's High Court said on Thursday. Marie Fleming, a 59-year-old former university lecturer who is completely paralyzed, made an impassioned plea last month to establish her partner's legal right to help her die, an act that is illegal in mainly Roman Catholic Ireland.
U.S. could save $2 trillion on health costs - study
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States could save $2 trillion in healthcare spending over the next decade, if the U.S. government used its influence in the public and private sectors to nudge soaring costs into line with economic growth, a study released on Thursday said. Compiled by the nonpartisan Commonwealth Fund, the study recommends holding the $2.8 trillion U.S. healthcare system to an annual spending target by having Medicare, Medicaid, other government programs and private insurers encourage providers to accelerate adoption of more cost-effective care.
Insulin "handshake" may do away with injections-study
SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian scientists have discovered how insulin is taken up by cells, potentially opening the way for new drugs for diabetes patients that can be administered without injection. The team, whose findings appeared in Nature, solved the puzzle of how the hormone insulin binds to its receptor in cells - a process necessary for cells to take up sugar from the blood and essential for treating diabetes.
Obesity, lack of insurance cited in U.S. health gap
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Overeating, lack of health insurance access and comparatively high poverty are among the many reasons why Americans are less healthy and die younger than people in other wealthy countries, a report requested by the U.S. government showed on Wednesday. The United States spends more per person on healthcare than any other nation but lags on many important health measures amid higher rates of obesity and heart disease and worse infant mortality rates than other rich countries.
DNA pioneer James Watson takes aim at "cancer establishments"
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A day after an exhaustive national report on cancer found the United States is making only slow progress against the disease, one of the country's most iconic - and iconoclastic - scientists weighed in on "the war against cancer." And he does not like what he sees. James Watson, co-discoverer of the double helix structure of DNA, lit into targets large and small. On government officials who oversee cancer research, he wrote in a paper published on Tuesday in the journal Open Biology, "We now have no general of influence, much less power ... leading our country's War on Cancer."
Boston declares health emergency amid U.S. flu outbreak
BOSTON (Reuters) - With flu cases in this city up tenfold from last year, the mayor of Boston declared a public health emergency on Wednesday as authorities around the United States scrambled to cope with a rising number of patients. U.S. health authorities say the flu arrived about a month earlier than usual this year, and the flu strain making most people sick - H3N2 - has a reputation for causing fairly severe illness, especially in the elderly.
Fluid from Pap test used to detect ovarian, endometrial cancers
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Using cervical fluid collected from routine Pap smears, U.S. researchers were able to spot genetic changes caused by both ovarian and endometrial cancers, offering promise for a new kind of screening test for these deadly cancers. Experts say that although the test has tremendous potential, it is still years from widespread use. But if proven effective with more testing, it would fill a significant void.
Cancer studies often downplay chemo side effects
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Doctors relying on studies published in top journals for guidance about how to treat women with breast cancer may not be getting the most accurate information, according to a new analysis. "Investigators want to go overboard to make their studies look positive," said Dr. Ian Tannock, the senior author of the new study in the Annals of Oncology.

Vladimir Putin appears to have made a dramatic about-face on the Ukraine crisis, calling for the east Ukrainian referendum to be postponed, saying he is withdrawing Russian troops from the border, and making vaguely approving noises about the May 25 election.
Being Mr Putin, he may yet change his mind again. But taken at face value, the remarks amount to a remarkable change of rhetoric suggesting several important changes in the Kremlin's thinking on the Ukraine crisis.
Firstly, the insurgency has failed: the Donetsk People's Republic is a shambles, and its inability to secure the whole region of Donetsk means the referendum could only have been held in a handful of rebel-held towns, mostly clustered around Slavyansk. Even if the area were not in a state of war, it is not at all clear that the fractious authorities of the republic are capable of organising anything resembling the flawed but smoothly run Crimean referendum - either its facade of legitimacy, or its landslide "yes" vote.
But secondly, in some sense the uprising actually has succeeded: if Kiev agrees to have the rebel leadership at the negotiating table, who needs a referendum?
The separatists will gain an aura of legitimacy anyway, and they may get a referendum later anyway, in calmer times. It's not like the rebels are going to lay down their arms, and they are hardly on the verge of defeat.
This could be merely a tactical retreat. It is just possible that combination of sanctions, economic pressures, and fear of the consequences of a real war may have convinced Mr Putin to back down. We don't know what threats (or promises) the Swiss president made behind closed doors.
Whatever Mr Putin's motives, it puts the rebels themselves in a tricky position.
His words suggest that even if a referendum were held, he would not use it as a pretext to intervene and "protect" a new breakaway state - something he never promised, but which those who openly admitted to wanting to "replicate the Crimea scenario" were banking on.
Any rebels still clinging to the already fading hope that T-90s would roll over the horizon in the nick of time have been rudely disabused of that notion. It doesn't look as if Mr Putin is going to war for them - for now.
The cooler-headed separatists may decide that without the Russian backing they were hoping for that it is time for compromise with what they call the "junta" in Kiev.
Denis Pushilin, the "prime minister" of the "republic" who runs things from Donetsk, has already hinted his government will accept Mr Putin's advice.
But Mr Pushilin's authority does not extend far beyond the barricades around the city's regional administration building, and how hotter headed, more militant rebels will react - especially those led by Vyacheslav Ponomarev in Slavyansk - is yet to be seen.
There's more than one incentive for them simply to ignore Mr Putin. Like certain UK political parties, the Donetsk people's republic didn't have much to offer the people other than a referendum, so a postponement will damage the credibility of Mr Pushilin and other leaders.
It would not be the first time they have ignored Moscow's guidance. The rebels flatly rejected the terms of the Geneva accords signed by Russia, Ukraine, the United States and the European Union last month.
Just maybe, this time will be different.
Dmitry Peskov, Mr Putin's spokesman, attached important caveats to his boss's comments last night: for the May 25 elections to be legitimate, he explained, the referendum should be postponed, but the Kiev government should end military action and prepare for talks with the rebels.
Those are challenging, but not impossible, conditions to meet. Yet even if Mr Putin is in earnest, all this may be academic.
There is still basically a war on east Ukraine. Once people pick up guns, even Mr Putin will find it tricky to make them put them down again.

AbstractNot Available This effort shall develop a product for high speed, high data throughput Wavelength Division Multiplexing optical networks through an integrated Micro-electro-mechanical System - Epitaxial Liftoff (MEMS-ELO) manufacturing approach. We shall develop a low cost wavelength-tunable optical detector for low cost fiber optic LAN and WAN applications. Through controlled, real time tuning to optical channels, we can use a high data capacity LAN just as we currently use two way radio channels for communication. Existing fiber lines can be outfitted with this Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) system to upgrade capacity to multiple channels and terabit networks. This multi-faceted effort will include the technology integration, the detector module design, the communications system design, manufacturing integration and the supplier and customer relationships required for a successful market entry. WDM is quickly emerging in the fiber optic arena. Building upon the prototypes produced in the Phase I effort, this effort shall outline a WDM network requiring only a single, low cost, tunable detector component and a single transmitter per hub.

Eir PVP Tips
Just thought I'd share what I learned about Eir PvP. No, I'm not "pro", but I guess I don't completely suck either. Anyway, on to the tips. Beware, they sound pretty simple but in practice, it's a lot more difficult. Most of these are extremely situational. Keep in mind, I'm going to assume you already know basic combos and what not so none of that will be included in here. Eir is primarily a ranged character, evidenced by our terrible meleeing abilities and the fact that most of our spells practically scream, "get out of my face!".
Moving Around
Avoid corners. They get you killed a lot. Conversely, pressuring someone else into a corner will greatly increase the odds of you landing your next hit. Hitting and running isn't exactly my style, but if that's your game, then that's fine, though most people might not like fighting you much. I personally like to keep a short distance between myself and the opponent, just outside of a dash's range so I can try and maneuver/counter attack when the opponent makes a move. If they come at you, dash just outside of their range before countering with a skill, or melee if you're feeling brave. It is important to maintain a good amount of distance from your opponent so it's easier to hit them while making it more difficult for them to hit you, but by all means, when necessary, retreat for cooldown/mana. Just don't make it your ONLY tactic.
S+Space is your friend. At first, it looks like a crappy back dash, and using it, you're actually moving slower than you are normally dashing but that's only if you use it excessively. Correct usage of it lets you get a little bit more space while changing directions instead of having to stop outright to change directions. It can also be used to confuse your opponents but really, unless your opponent thinks a lot in PvP (I only know of a few), it probably won't work so, focusing on the first use mentioned...
Example: You're fighting a Dainn, stage is City. He's coming from the lower left side, you're on the lower right side. If you dash up, chances are he'll come up to you at a diagonal, most likely planning on intercepting you as you approach the north wall. Dash AS for Dainn has a ton of range, so it's no problem. What do you do? If you stop to turn and cast a spell, you might get hit or the Dainn might react to you stopping and adjust his movement patterns. From what I've noticed, as long as you stay moving, your opponents stay moving. If you stop to adjust directions or something, your opponent will re-evaluate their moves too. Most of this is done instinctually. Here's where S+Space comes into play. As you're dashing up and the Dainn is approaching dangerously close, you can do S+Space, holding down either 1 (numkey) or the left and down arrow keys after S but before Space mid-dash. Once you press Space, Eir will do a back dash to the upper right while turning to face your opponent. Firing off Moonlight Piece or Holy Spirit in this situation greatly increases the odds of scoring a hit. Basically, S+Space can be used whenever you need to change direction while gaining about a half dash's worth of space. Beware that your movement after it is slightly slower so if you use it, plan on making it worthwhile. This works especially well when someone is right behind you, approximately a half dash length away. I haven't quite perfected using this myself, but when I do use it correctly, it's awesome. Unfortunately, messing this up will get you killed, since if you mess up, Eir punches the ground and it can't be cancelled.
While Eir's melee attacks are pretty crappy in general, they do serve their purpose. First of all, it leads up to more damaging attacks (and in some cases, makes them guaranteed) and second, if you're capable of applying melee pressure, it helps to keep someone out of your face. Now, going head to head with melee will get you killed against any other job unless you're better than they are but if you can time your swings to your opponent's off swing (right after their swing's "damage" frames but before their next swing), you can land quite a few hits. If you're incapable of doing any serious damage with melee attacks, I suggest you learn some ways otherwise your opponent will feel no regret at all for giving up first hits. If they know you can dish out some close range damage, they're more likely to stay at least some distance away. You can also use melee pressure to help you lead your opponent into a position that's more advantageous to you. It varies quite a bit depending on who you PvP, so just experiment a bit. You can also melee to interrupt someone's dash attack if they misjudge the distance or timing, but don't count on it. Best (and safest) way to melee as an Eir is by taking advantage of your opponent's sides and back. Combo them into corners whenever possible.
Spell Spamming
Is a no no. It's a huge waste of mana and chances of anything landing is probably pretty small unless your opponent brainlessly charges in from the front (which happens from time to time, even good players will do it occasionally).
Healer's favorite spammable spell, Moonlight Piece. Usually, this is used terribly by most Eirs. I find that it's far better to aim where you think someone will go (while they're in motion) rather than directly at them. It works best if they're about a dash and a half length away, so you can at least get the spell off safely without being cancelled. If you miss, you're probably screwed. If you find someone is able to dodge Pieces easily regardless of how you shoot/aim, then use Pieces at mid-long range (2-3 dash length). While it probably won't hit, it'll help you limit their movements so you can go and intercept them. The only time you should ever aim Moon Piece at someone directly is if you think they're about to use a skill or spell of their own, so it's a mind game. If they do as you predicted, Pieces hits. If not, they're probably gonna dodge it and get a free shot at you. It's a gamble.
Holy Spirit should be used at as close to point blank as possible, since anything further can be easily avoided. Again, it helps if you can predict where they'll be moving next, because a lot can happen in the .25 seconds it takes to cast. Also, consider using Spirit as a wake-up move if your opponent messes up a combo and is on top of your body or directly in front of you. Time it properly so you don't get hit out of casting it as you wake up. It's possible to get Spirit off if your opponent is about a three quarters to a dash length away and they're charging directly at you. If it's a half dash length away, chances are you'll get hit-cancelled out of Spirit. Use the S+Space maneuver.
Full Moon Bullet is basically like our D-Fist. It has a slow start up, but decent range and a lot of width. Unfortunately, the projectile's path is kind of unpredictable. Sometimes, it tracks beautifully and sometimes, it's kind of retarded. In any case, Full Moon Bullet has a good chance of hitting if someone is charging directly at you at approximately 2 dash lengths away. An alternative use would be to cast it at a screen's length away just as someone is using a skill to knock them down. If you want to catch someone who isn't charging at you with FMB, it should be about a dash's length away, if they're going perpendicular to the direction you're facing.
Sacred Wave's most important feature is that the opponent can be pushed/pulled depending on how you're facing. If you're facing your opponent, they get pushed away. If you're facing away from your opponent, they get pulled towards you. This is useful in determining your next course of action. You may want them closer or further depending on what you do next. If your "getaway" spells are on cooldown, Sacred Wave is also a good alternative as a wake up spell. It'll hit them and alter their positioning, giving you a better chance of getting out unscathed. Note that if you cast it at point blank or close to it, your opponent is guaranteed the next hit, so long as they don't mess up. As such, it's inadvisable to simply spam Sacred Wave at every opportunity. Try to keep them at Wave's maximum range. Siegs have a guaranteed counter to Sacred Wave. They can Provoke + dash AS after Wave, regardless of how/where you hit them, guaranteeing their next hit. To avoid this, time Wave during Provoke's cooldown or sacrifice getting combo'd once to deal 300 damage. I personally think it's ok to simply spam Wave if you know you're gonna be screwed regardless of what you do next. Might as well take out 300 more hp before you die. This happens particularly often if you get combo'd into a corner.
Tears of Goddess is a great spell. It's difficult to use in PvP, sure, but when used correctly, it's amazing. Best used to disrupt someone's wake-up or to knock someone down. Aim for wherever they stop (to change directions) in a dash or right as they're about to use a skill. If you want to hit smoeone in motion, aim just a little bit ahead of where they are so they dash into it. Tears can also be used after Holy Spirit against a wall for some extra damage. If done properly, you can dash cancel (slightly different from a half dash, >><>) to continue a melee combo, but it's incredibly difficult. You can also simply dash AS + skill if it helps to finish off your opponent.
Dodge is possibly one of our best spells. It has a myriad of uses, both offensively and defensively. Using Dodge on wake-up almost guarantees your safety if done wisely. Consider your opponent's position relative to your own. Dodge will usually make it so that they have to do two dashes to reach you, as dashing diagonally ends up with them eating a Dodge. You can also simply Dodge into someone to blow them up, but generally, it's best used after AA. Since Knights tend to Play Dead after AA (for fear of Sleep or whatever), Dodge is almost always guaranteed after it. Dainns can escape with Bitter Cold Breath. At the furthest of Eir's melee range, Dodge may not hit after AA, so as close as possible is best if you plan on using it this way. You can also use Dodge in mind games. Since good players tend to take advantage of whenever you mess up a combo, you can intentionally let them drop, turn, and use Dodge. If they take the bait, boom! Dodge has so many uses, it's difficult to list them all. Experiment and find your own ways, be creative.
Shout is primarily a defensive spell. If Spirit and FMB are on cooldown, you can use Shout to get someone out of your face. Usually, if someone is hit with it, they're disoriented for a brief second, which may be enough time to cast and land Moonlight Pieces. It can also be used to get people out of your face in wake up, as it can allow you to dash to the sides, adding more movement ability to your wake up game. It has far less range than Hand of Earth so it's not very good for cancelling other people's spells.
Wake-up Game
When you're knocked down, you can do several things to recover. You can tap a direction before you hit the ground or right as you hit the ground to dash away in that direction, you can press S or A to get back up, or you can simply lay there. S takes a little while to initiate but gives you lots of invincibility time, but also leaves you vulnerable afterwards and A gives you only a few frames of invincibility but it can also knock down opponents near you. In either case, you can dash away backwards in the middle of the animation to cancel it and move. Unfortunately, if you choose to stay down after being knocked over, there is no way to move sideways (unless you use Shout, more on that later).
During the A and S animation, you can also cancel it by using a skill. This is where Eir excels in her wake-up game. Eir has many skills to use during wake-up to prevent getting hit again. Sacred Wave, Dodge, Shout, and Holy Spirit are a few of them. Basically, if you get knocked down and your opponent is right in front of where you are, you can wake up + Holy Spirit or if they're to the side, you can wake up + Sacred Wave (medium distance) or wake up + Dodge (short distance) to get away safely. Shout can be used for wake-up if you need to either push your opponent away but Holy Spirit is on cooldown, or if you need to dash sideways AFTER you decided to stay laying down. Playing a good wake-up game is important to your survival but you have to think very fast, especially against Sieg and Dainn players since they can punish you for staying down.
One thing to keep in mind when deciding your wake-up action is that the direction you face as you get up will ALWAYS be the direction you got knocked up from regardless of how many times you're shifted or which direction you were facing before you got launched. If your opponent came at you from the right and launched you there, you will be facing right once you hit the ground. If they stay close in front of you after knocking you over, wake-up + Holy Spirit will almost always hit unless they expect it. If they're off to the side, wake-up + Dodge will probably get you away safely while wake-up + Sacred Wave (medium distance) will do that plus some damage though it's risky especially against knights. Don't bother using skills on wake-up unless you know it'll hit or help you get away safely. I often see people using wake-up + Pieces at long range, there's no point and it's a waste of mana. Simply standing up with A or S, then dashing away would work just as well.
Wake-up game also includes what to do when your opponent is downed. You can strategically place Moon Barrier and Dodge to control where your opponent moves. Against Siegs and other Eirs, you can field hit over their body. Sieg and Eir's wake-up attacks are slow enough for you to react to it to get away while giving you the potential to still score a hit but Dainn's has a massive radius so field hitting doesn't work too well against him on wake-up. You can also set traps. Good opponents always take advantage of your openings, most notably after missed spells. You can abuse this by setting traps. If, for example, an opponent is downed and you're fairly close by, you can cast Holy Spirit. If they get up, they get hit. Many good players will stay down until Spirit passes before using a dash AS into you during your cast delay. Knowing this, you can still cast Spirit to create the false opening, then just as Spirit passes over them and it's safe for them to move, you can use Dodge and land a hit. Good opponents tend to evade attacks really easily so as an Eir, your task would be to trick them into getting hit. Keep that in mind for your wake-up games. These are but a few suggestions, experiment and come up with other things to do.
Situational Strategies
Hate Bitter Cold Breath? I do too. Best way to avoid it? Get the hell out of there. If you don't have that option, for example, if you're in a corner, they're about a dash and a half length to the upper left away from you, you probably won't be able to clear it. In such a situation, just be prepared to get hit, but you can cast Holy Spirit right before you freeze. At the very least, they can't immediately dash AS into you. If Spirit is on cooldown, you can turn and use Dodge away. They can (and probably will) hit you with ranged skills but at least they can't hit you with a melee combo. The trick is to limit the damage you receive if you can't prevent it entirely. If you have Moon Bind to waste, you can also hit them with it, giving you a net bonus of 2.2 more secoonds to get away. Try to stay just out of range and retaliate with a spell for when their invincibility ends. Moon Fog works well. At the very least, they'll be slowed.
Play Dead can be countered with Dodge. It takes a lot of practice to time it properly and against really good players. I haven't quite mastered it yet myself, since a they tend to get up really quickly, but any time someone uses Play Dead, Dodge is guaranteed if you place it right on top of them (requires at least lvl 3 Dodge).
If you have Whirlwind Wave (nados) coming after you and you know you can't outrun it because of slow or whatever, try doing an S-Space, turning to face your pursuer, and fire off Spirit or Pieces. I mean you're gonna get hit anyway, might as well give them a more difficult time to follow up on it after you do get hit. Alternatively, you can use Dodge.
You may find yourself trapped in a corner with an Ice Barrier blocking you (damn dirty Wizards...). The important key here is to stay calm. The Wizard will most likely not- let you destroy the wall and will try to force you to burn up your skills and abilities so the best thing to do is nothing at all. You're pretty much screwed. First, while being pummeled, try to find a way out. Sometimes, you can squeeze through between the barrier and the stage's walls even though it doesn't look like it. Second, make sure you don't try to spam skills. You'll need them if the Wizard goes for the coup de grace (Meteor), in which case, let loose Pieces. If you find an opening between the barrage of spells, try using Light Shield and waiting it out but beware, Light Shield tends to be cancelled easily when you need it most.
That's it for now. I'll add more later when I come up with more stuff to stick in here. Maybe I'll edit the formatting, it'll probably look like a massive block of text right now...
Also, if you have any good Eir tactics or strategies against skilled Dainn or Sieg players, by all means, post them here. I'm also trying to learn more advanced comboing maneuvers myself, like comboing someone into a wall, shifting, going along side a wall, then away from a wall in one juggle. I can do the first two parts and the last part, but not the first two and the last in one juggle. If you have any idea how to pull this off, PM me or just whisper me in-game.

Edit: Added wake-up game section
Wow nice guide!
But for that corner situation...
I LOVE corners :"D
and skill spamming :D
(since all are level 1, i end up getting more mp even if i use every skill consecutivaly. using all the begginer skills take around 100 mp, but i gain it all back ...)
yay a decent pvp healer guide finally
and also, I know this is probably not going to be very useful - but are there any combos involving s+space? or is it possible to do a shift in a weird situation with s+space? or is halfdash and 994 (as well as all the other shifts) much more efficient?
Other than the Sleep-Bind combo, there aren't really any others where you would use S+Space, and even in the Sleep-Bind combo, it's not necessary. I just dash away and turn when I do that combo, works just as well. In some situations, it works better since you can make tiny adjustments to position before firing off Moon Pieces to make sure it's a direct hit. You can't do that if you use S+Space.
As far as movement goes in combos, normal shifting and half dashing is pretty much all you need for basic combos. For advanced ones, you may need to learn 4 key shifts.
You can still dash away and turn with lvl 2 Sleep. You have no room for error if you choose to do it this way, Pieces must be cast the instant Fog comes out. There's actually an ever so slight margin of error for Fog > Pieces in the combo if you use S+Space.
i think i tried that.. doesn't work cause u run too far and pieces doesn't hit before they wake up...
can't try anymore since i got lvl 3 sleep
I never did S+Space, even with level 2 Sleep. It worked fine unless I messed up from being too slow.
well i didn't see it.. who were u fighting..
Zyris =).message too short, etc.
he's a noob! noob goddess
Naerie, could you expand a little more on the tears? how many hits is there in it? also, you do this to continue the combo instead of halfdashing
after spirit tears, assuming the opponent gets hit by the last hit (this is the part I wanted you to explain more on, I only seem to get them hit by it sometimes and I need help figuring out how to do it consistently), then dash AS shout (assuming you're facing west) then press 882 or 228 and AAAA will continue the combo.
to get tears consistently its' just practice for range.
also.. i'd like to add that in ur pvp eir tips.. u'd like to say that playdead with dodge is guaranteed only if dodge is above lvl 3 i believe it was.. other than that.. we can stay down long enough to avoid extra dmg
facing east
AS S 7 space 8 AAAA etc.
but you'l be better off using a normal shift <_<
actually if you do
dash AS S cancel dash AS S cancel and manage to get the opponent high enough, then you could S (whatever direction) space (direction) AAAA etc. I've only did it once though, since dash AS S cancel is hard to get the opponent in the exact height as A S.
Naerie, what would the difference be between 8862 and 882? shouldn't it be 8823 if you're going to shift away from wall? I don't know, could you share your shift away from wall keys?
Secret. Assuming you're going east into the wall, 8862 will make you dash north, walk a half step towards the wall, then turn to continue the juggle. It just gets you closer to the wall making the juggle away from the wall easier to accomplish.
Well, you should input it as if it was one command, otherwise the opponent will drop. Really, you won't even see Eir make a step, she'll just move a couple pixels towards the wall.
wouldn't 88621 work as well? assuming you have no space for an AAAA and need to get out of the wall right away. or maybe 8861. I'd have to try it when I get home but I have a feeling I'll just miss the swing.
Okay. This is the combo I'm talking about
juggle juggle until right distance from wall, then spirit, chain, tears, dash AS shout [(facing east) 882 AAAA dash AS dodge]
the things in the bracket is what I'd like to expand. I was thinking a shift away from the wall, and just do eir infi until all my skills are done with cd. rinse. repeat. help with the keys? specificaly how2shift away from wall
It's impossible to do it unless you get close to the wall with 8862. You can't just 8861, your swing will miss completely. Even with 8862, you won't be close enough to the wall to shift away...you'd need to do 8862, then 22862 or 226(hold)2 until you're as close to the wall as possible, then while you're doing AA (1) AA...then from there, get really creative with shifts to realign yourself.

Since sodium chloride is sodium and chlorine atoms bonded as a lattice and there are no discrete molecules, doesn't that mean in gas state, sodium chloride is simply sodium and chlorine atoms separate from each other, resulting in a mixture of sodium gas and chlorine gas?
No, in the gas phase sodium chloride exists as a monomer (the sodium chloride molecule) along with its dimer $\ce{Na2Cl2}$. The dimer has a roughly rectangular shape and is quite floppy with chlorines located diagonally across from each other. The dimer makes up about 27% of the mix. All of the bond lengths, etc. can be found in this thesis. Go to the end and you'll see the full paper that appeared in JACS with all of the data.

David Paterson Nominated For MTA Gig; Paul McCartney To Blame
Governor Andrew Cuomo announced today that he's nominating disastrous former Governor David Paterson to serve on the board of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority -- and we have the "cute" Beatle to blame for Patterson's return to public life.
Paterson will replace former Board member Nancy Shevell, who resigned from her post in January after marrying Paul McCartney in October. Shevell served on the board since 2001.
Despite Paterson's brief -- but horrific -- reign over the Empire State, Cuomo's got nothin' but love for his fellow Dem.
"Governor Paterson has dedicated his life to working for the people of this state and I am excited that he will continue his public service at the MTA," Cuomo says in a statement. "Governor Paterson's energy, expertise, and experience will benefit the millions of New Yorkers who rely on the MTA every day. I look forward to working together as we continue to reform the MTA and improve service for New Yorkers."

Since leaving the Governor's Mansion -- at the request of President Barack Obama -- Paterson's filled his days as a talk radio host on WOR.
Paterson, as you may recall, took over for shamed former Governor Elliot Spitzer, who, it turned out, had a bit of a thing for hookers.
In 2009, when faced with a $15 billion budget deficit, Paterson decided to tax the crap out of New Yorkers -- he proposed an 18-percent "obesity tax" on all non-diet soft drinks, and a four-percent "service tax" on haircuts, for example.
Cuomo's nomination of Paterson still needs approval from the state Senate.

Hong KongHong Kong
April 19, 2012
I can't wait to meet more skeptics in Hong Kong. I really want to meet people with whom I can have logical and rational conversations.
SGU, Point of Inquiry, Unbelievable, Free Thought Radio, etc, etc.
What's your sacred cow? Do you believe in nationalism? Do you believe in acupuncture? Do you think america really put a man on the moon? Everyone has a belief they've never subjected to critical analysis - even if they call themselves a skeptic. Think about it.
No answer yet
I moved to Hong Kong in 2007 and I brought an old Sony Walkman with me. When I got here, my wife bought me an iPod. That changed everything. I started listening to Podcasts and then discovered the SGU. I never looked back.
A world wide phenomena. And we're part of it.

Re: Quarterly monitoring seems useless to me now[ Edited ]

I guess Quarterly monitoring isn't doing what I thought it would. I thought it would alert me whenever a new account was added, or personal information changed. It has not yet given me alerts about a change in address or two credit line increase, OR a new 15,000 CL from AMEX (new account). It has been a few months now and Credit Karma picked up on it about 3 weeks after the changes.
Why pay for a service when Credit Karma will do it for free?
I understand the differences between a FAKO and FICO. My FAKO is probably 20 points above my true TU FICO, but I really have the monitoring to alert me to changes - and apparently its not very reliable for that.
Anyone else a bigger fan of Credit Karma?
I also have TUQM, but it doesn't monitor credit items like account changes, changes in util, changes in score, etc. on any frequency other than quarterly (hence the name of FICO Quarterly Monitoring). The only thing it monitors in between the every-3-month-new-report-pull is your demogrpahic info and I don't think they pull it from your CRs. I too had moved and did get an alert for an address change but I don't know the source. At the same time my CR changed to the new address, then reverted to the old, then the new, then the old, and back and forth (I had let my CCs update the CR for me), yet only received one alert via TUQM despite multiple changes.
IMO, subscribe to TUQM for the FICO not for CR content. Also subscribe for the 20% discount if you need to pull more than once every 3 months. I wouldn't recommend subscribing for the credit monitoring because you can get all 3 CRs monitored for free elsewhere.

High school football: Ogden Tigers 2012 preview
All the wide receivers are new, and that's one of the biggest question marks facing the Tigers this season.
Defensively, Ogden's line should be a strength like the offensive line, but the linebacking core will be brand new.
More than anything, Kolan said his team needs to be tougher mentally this season.
"Hopefully we can develop a sense of mental toughness — that when something bad goes wrong, that we know we can overcome that," said Kolan. "I know physically they'll be able to compete up front, but mentally we need to develop a sense of toughness."
Ogden Tigers at a glance
Coach: Troy Kolan is entering his third year as Ogden's head coach. The Morgan High graduate has compiled a 5-16 record in his first two seasons.
(5 returning starters; Pistol offense)
Ogden was in the bottom third in scoring offense last year at just 17 ppg. Improving upon that won't be easy with new quarterback Michael Richardson and a host of new receivers. Sophomore receiver Blake Harvey has been a pleasant surprise this summer. Coach Kolan said he just showed up out of nowhere and he's been snatching balls out of the air left and right. Receivers Cooper Ferrario and Ethan Vosburgh will be counted on for productive seasons as well. Josh Shackleford will carry the bulk of the burden at running back after a solid sophomore season.
(4 returning starters)
In a region where most of the teams like to run the ball, Ogden has the potential to be pretty good with three of its four defensive starters returning on the defensive line. Yopu Brian came on late last year and was one of Ogden's leading tacklers the final three games. Brian Saunders and Larry Rodriguez are both returning starters on the defensive line as well. All four of Ogden's linebackers will be new though, and Richardson is the lone returning starter in the secondary.
Coaches preseason Region 11 straw poll: Fifth
Deseret News Region 11 prediction: Fifth
Bottom line: Ogden made great strides last season by making the playoffs a year removed from only winning one game. Duplicating it won't be easy. All the top teams in Region 11 return the bulk of their starters, while Ogden is pretty much starting from scratch outside of the offensive and defensive lines. That talent in the trenches is very good though, and it might be enough to lead Ogden to the playoffs again this year.

i have had dreads for the past six years and recently i have started the painstaking task of brushing them out and this made my hair like i remembered before dreads made my hair look more shiny than normal, softer than normal, and it looked a lot more healthier
Love this! And so do the other long haired ladies in my family! Best thing we have found to take care of our hair!
totally moisturizing and brightening!! I totally recommend and I hope that you all have great outcomes just like mwah! love this so much
Great mask, I have dry, fine hair that can get oily and this conditioner is one of my faves. I love the whole Amika line!
I loved this product. It smelled so good and made my hair feel really soft but the price is too much for such a small amount of cream. I have long hair so I got about two uses out of it. Otherwise, I would highly recommend.

I am very patient yet focused and will work with each student to help find their own best way to learn a given subject. I draw upon my own experiences freely to help motivate students to love learning and demonstrate relevance of a given topic in their lives and their dreams for a productive and happy future.
I have 40 years of experience as an engineer, senior executive leader and manager, and high technology business consultant in multiple fields including aerospace, electronics, manufacturing, biotechnology, research & development, business administration & management, intelligence collection and analysis.

Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I use a different approach to teach my students Algebra. I help the student develop competence and self-confidence then build towards subject mastery without knowledge gaps. This preparation provides a truly solid foundation for learning more advanced mathematics later on.
American History is a continuum of many events and ideas. America is the first country in history that was founded based on the idea that all people are created equal. However, studying American History shows that achieving the goal of true equality in reality has been a continuous and often difficult struggle. There have been many steps forward, backward and sideways as the states stagger in different directions at different times; unsynchronized in their actions unless compelled to alignment by judicial decision. This is the American way of democracy, awkward, yet successful.
I am an engineering and management consultant with 26 years' experience. Before starting this business, I was an aerospace engineer and program manager for 15 years. I have an MBA (Rensellaer Polytechnic Institute), M. Aerospace Engineering (Cornell University) and a BS (Mechanical Engineering) also from Cornell University.
Calculus is the study of instantaneous change using a variety of methods to solve many different kinds of problems. We can use calculus as a framework to model the real world to help understand how it behaves under different circumstances. Of course, calculus is a mathematical tool set that we use for this and other purposes. One of the benefits of studying calculus is it will greatly improve one's other mathematical skills, such as algebra. Mastery of calculus provides a solid basis for understanding more advanced mathematics and rigorous analytical thinking.
I've played classical and jazz percussion for over 50 years. I was a student of Art Peretta, drummer for the Tony Pastor Orchestra (1940s era big band with singer Rosemary Clooney). Art taught me studio percussion techniques, music sight reading, and the business of music.
I am a native American English speaker and have helped over ten immigrants master the nuances and improve their pronunciation of the American English language and idiom. I've studied other languages (e.g., Mandarin Chinese and Spanish) and understand the difficulties of learning a foreign language's phonemes.
I have an MBA from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and 26 years experience as a management and engineering consultant.
I am an active citizen who is engaged in the helping our democracy succeed. I've had direct experience working within the Federal Government as a senior Navy officer with 30 years of service. I've travelled all over the world and observed different forms of government in practice. Often, I've had to keep my political opinions to myself. However, I do have opinions about governance, decision-making and the impact of politics on society. I have seen what works and does not work and the reasons why. I enjoy helping my students analyze and attempt to understand different cultures and their forms of government; some effective and others less so.
I have an MBA from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (1981), which included significant marketing coursework. In addition, I am an entrepreneur and have operated my own consulting practice since 1990. Further, I have helped many clients with their business plan creation, which includes a comprehensive marketing plan. In addition, I have 37 years of knowledge, skills and experience preparing management and technical proposals for companies that include a commercialization plan for their product offerings.
I earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering and a Master of Aerospace Engineering from Cornell University. In addition, I have 39 years of experience as a consulting engineer and senior manager. My clients are high technology companies seeking to create new products and technologies for both government and commercial applications.
I've been a practicing engineer for well over 30 years. I enjoy tutoring students, as my time permits, to help them appreciate the world through their new physics and mathematics skills. Students gain self-confidence and pride in accomplishment as their understanding of these fundamental subjects improves over time.
Proofreading is a careful examination of written text to find and correct typographical errors, grammatical mistakes, inconsistent writing style and, of course, spelling. I have proofread many doctoral dissertations, masters theses, business plans, proposals and thousands of reports resulting in superior communication of the ideas and information they contain. Let me help you achieve your goals through improving your written work.
I assist my students to develop their focus by identifying and eliminating distractions, establishing and maintaining a routine, having a positive mental attitude, develop organizational skills, engage their brain to improve memory and analysis skills, take better quality notes, improve time management and avoid procrastination. I reinforce helpful skills through effective practice and frequent observation and testing while addressing student's weaknesses through honest discussions and specific feedback.
I use a different approach to teaching trigonometry. I help the student develop competence and confidence. Understanding trigonometry means learning to recognize many different patterns and build solutions using a variety techniques. I am a strong advocate of Khan Academy where the student learns the lessons as homework and works with the tutor on solving problems. This is different from most public school approaches, which have mixed results.
Building a strong vocabulary is essential to developing one's ability to communicate clearly. Possessing and using a strong vocabulary allows us to have many tools in our intellectual toolbox to address various communication requirements; some subtle and nuanced, others terse and obvious. Further, a strong vocabulary is fundamental towards becoming a truly educated person and developing as a functioning and effective member of a civilized society. Therefore, I include vocabulary development as part of all tutoring assignments regardless of topic.
Developing one's ability to write clearly, uniformly and consistently is an essential skill in any culture. However, few people take time to develop their writing abilities. Those who do, often achieve greater success in their careers. Clear writing develops clearer thinking. However, learning to write well takes practice. I help my students learn to think clearly, which helps them write their thoughts clearly.

Hedge Fund Oil Bulls Return on Recovery Signs: Energy Markets
Hedge funds and other large speculators raised bets on gains in oil prices for the first time in five weeks on renewed signs the U.S. economy is recovering from the worst recession since the 1930s.
Net-long positions on the New York Mercantile Exchange climbed 8 percent in the week ended Sept. 7, the first increase since the seven days ended Aug. 3, according to the weekly Commitments of Traders report from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The price of crude advanced 2.5 percent on the Nymex last week, the most since July.
Private payrolls excluding government jobs rose by 67,000 in August after a revised 107,000 gain in July that was more than estimated, the Labor Department said in a Sept. 3 report. Pending home sales increased an unexpected 5.2 percent in July, the National Association of Realtors said on Sept 2.
"Positive housing data came out, along with lower initial jobless claims," said Hamza Khan, an analyst at the Schork Group in Villanova, Pennsylvania. A decline in stockpiles also "bodes well for demand because it shows traders are willing to take oil out of storage and send it to refiners," he said.
Supplies in Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point of the Nymex futures contract, have fallen for five straight weeks, declining 6 percent since the end of July to 35.5 million barrels, according to the Department of Energy.
Above $77
Crude for October delivery rose 74 cents, or 1 percent, to $77.19 a barrel on the Nymex, the highest settlement since Aug. 11. It advanced $2.20 on Sept. 10, the most in six weeks, after a pipeline carrying Canadian crude to refineries in the Midwest was closed due to a leak. Houston-based Enbridge Energy Partners LP has no estimate for when the line will open.
Oil has dropped 2.7 percent this year on speculation that the U.S. economy may slip back into a recession. Crude in New York traded at $64.24 on May 20, the lowest level since July 30, 2009, amid concern Europe's sovereign-debt crisis would curb global growth. Prices have increased 19 percent since then.
Net-long positions among hedge funds and other large speculators in crude oil futures and options combined on the Nymex rose 6,262 to 84,957 for the seven days ended Sept. 7, according to the CFTC data. Speculators have pared bullish bets on oil by 37 percent since the start of August, when crude traded above $80 a barrel on the Nymex.
'Short Covering'
Open interest in crude futures, the total number of contracts that have not been closed, liquidated or delivered, rose to 1.35 million on Sept. 3, the highest number since June. More than 1 million contracts changed hands on Sept. 10, the first time since May that volume topped 1 million.
"The open interest is much higher this week, which implies that the rally probably has legs," Khan said.
Traders may not be as bullish on oil prices as the net position indicates, said Tim Evans, an analyst at Citi Futures Perspective in New York.
"The money managers were net buyers but they did it by covering shorts," Evans said. Hedge funds may have been buying back wagers that prices would fall before the three-day weekend and the Sept. 6 U.S. Labor Day holiday, he said.
Traders also increased net-long positions in heating oil, natural gas and gasoline, the CFTC data showed. Net-long positions in heating oil futures and options combined climbed 10,865 to 8,764. Hedge funds and other large speculators had been net short on heating oil since the week ended Aug. 24.
Gasoline Longs
Managed money also switched to net long on gasoline. Bets prices would fall outnumbered those they would rise in the week ended Aug. 31 for the first time in almost four years. Net-long positions grew by 7,163 futures and options combined to 5,994 last week, the report showed.
Net-long positions in futures and options combined in four natural-gas contracts climbed by 1,613, or 3 percent, to 54,690.5 futures equivalents Sept. 7, the first increase in five weeks, the CFTC data showed.
The measure of natural-gas net longs includes an index of four contracts adjusted to futures equivalents: Nymex natural gas futures, Nymex Henry Hub Swaps, Nymex Henry Hub Penultimate Swaps and ICE Henry Hub Swaps. Henry Hub, in Erath, Louisiana, is the delivery point for the Nymex futures, a benchmark price for the fuel.
The CFTC publishes aggregate numbers every Friday for long and short positions for speculators such as hedge funds and institutional investors, as well as commercial companies that buy or sell futures to protect against price moves.

Control your fans with your phone from the comfort of your couch, while you're at work, or from anywhere in the world. Debuted at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Symphony and Signal feature state of the art Wi-Fi technology and boast support for Apple HomeKit technology, allowing you to automate your home with the touch of a button – or a voice command to Siri. The icing on the cake? Both styles retail for less than $400.
Our Connected Home Fans are smarter than most politicians.
Enhance personal security by never walking into a dark home again: program the fan to turn on its light when you're arriving with Apple HomeKit's location-based triggers. When you're away, simulate activity in the home by remotely controlling the light on your fan, deterring unwanted guests. Increase energy efficiency by syncing the fans with your thermostat, keeping your family cool and your energy bill low. Easily step into the world of home automation by connecting your fan to a myriad of other HomeKit-enabled products, such as door locks, garage doors, plugs, thermostats, and shades.
Symphony and Signal bring Wi-Fi technology where it might not be expected: the ceiling fan. The first ceiling fans to boast Apple HomeKit technology, their possible benefits are ever-evolving.
"When we first had cameras on our iPhones, we didn't immediately envision the ability to deposit checks with them. Similarly, we know that these fans enhance energy efficiency, home security and convenience, but we believe we've just scratched the surface of their full potential," says Hunter Chief Marketing Officer John Neilson.
Symphony and Signal combine state of the art technology with Hunter's rich heritage of quality craftsmanship.
"Our ceaseless innovation is why Hunter Fan is the industry leader, and these new Wi-Fi enabled fans, with added support for Apple HomeKit, are a testament to our heritage of progress and originality," said Hunter Fan CEO John Alexander. "They're beautiful, affordable, high quality pieces of decor that bring state-of-the-art Wi-Fi technology where it might not be expected: the ceiling fan. As we celebrate 130 years, we have several exciting developments to share with our customers, and are proud to kick off 2016 at CES with Symphony and Signal."

Hi Imcobar,
I cannot help You with MU since I never tested it, to be honest i never even installed wordpress MU. This script of mine was created for a specific purpose and it is not a plugin at all... however it serves to lot of people as quite a good base for some of their own projects.
When I wrote the script I used the wordpress 'user contact fields' only because I could then easily manipulate data throughout my theme... I believe that You could easily create another MySQL table specificaly for user data you want to save.
The other and maybe more simple option would be to duplicate my plugin and create 2 custom "Profile pages", one for complayn data, and other for user. You would have to make sure that variables used are not the same... I think you could easily include changing avatar picture and password in other profile page.
So basically, You would store all data in default "profile" which would be hidden for end user, and display that same data on 2 different custom profile pages...
Hope that helps and I wish you best of luck ;)

We work to make sure that many different events are available to serve a range of needs and populations and that students are able to volunteer in a way that is meaningful for them. Join the committee if you would like to help initiate and coordinate any opportunities!

Social Co-Chairs
The Social Committee plans various events to bring the Curry student community together. We coordinate the Fall and Spring picnics along with smaller gatherings such as bagels in the CLIC and happy hours in order to provide students with many opportunities to get to know each other. Let us know if you're interested in helping to plan and come up with new events for students to enjoy.
