Cultural Effects of U.S.-Iranian Foreign Relations on Upper-Middle Class Women from 1953-1979
|Laura Nogrady
|Faculty Mentor(s)
|History 360: Junoir Research Seminar
This project looks at the cultural effects of U.S. - Iranian Foreign Relations on women in the upper-middle class from 1953 to the beginning of the Islamic Revolution of 1979. Instead of focusing on government actions, this project revolves around the lives of actual women; women whose lives have been documented by their own hand and translated into English. Placing these upper-middle class women in the contexts of Westernization, Islam, Gender, and Revolution has revealed a link to the wider view of American - Iranian foreign relations. Through research on all of these topics, a trend shows that close U.S. - Iranian relations were influential in the opportunities available to women in the mid to late twentieth century.

HP Photosmart B8850 Photo Printer Review
A high end printer capable of handling a variety of print sizes.
The HP Photosmart B8550 is a high-end photo printer that can handle big prints: up to 13 x 19 inches on a single sheet, or even larger as banner prints. It produces good quality prints, with good color accuracy and deep blacks. But it's a noisy printer and it takes some time to set up and use.

He served as the cornerstone for the reconstruction of one miserable NFL franchise and now, nearly a decade later, Warren Sapp will try to help re-establish the halcyon days of a once-proud team that suddenly fell into disrepair last season.
Sapp, a seven-time Pro Bowl performer during his nine-year tenure with Tampa Bay, became an unrestricted free agent this spring. In a deal that would have been considered unthinkable less than 24 hours before it was consummated, he reached contract agreement with the Oakland Raiders on Saturday evening.
He passed a team physical and will be introduced as the newest member of the Silver and Black on Monday.
The seven-year contract, completed after very long Friday night and Saturday bargaining sessions by phone, will pay Sapp $36.6 million. About $7 million of that will come in the form of guaranteed bonuses.
League sources said that the contract is not severely back loaded and will pay Sapp more than $14 million in its first three years and in excess of $19 million the first four years. For the front part of the contract, such a distribution is superior to some of the deals signed by defensive tackles earlier in free agency.
Oakland entered into the bidding for Sapp late Friday, phoning agent Drew Rosenhaus only after ESPN.com reported that the Cincinnati Bengals were close to a deal with the defensive tackle on a four-year contract that would have paid him more than $16 million. Operating with their trademark stealth, Raiders executives quickly assessed the financial viability of adding Sapp and determined it was reasonable to make an 11th-hour pitch for him.
Just as important for the Raiders' coaches was the feeling that Sapp would be a good fit in their defense. Sapp will be paired with another free agent acquisition, nose tackle Ted Washington, and so will be able to continue playing the "three technique" or "under" position so familiar to him. Since the mammoth Washington figures to draw a lot of double-team blocking, Sapp, who will be aligned in the center-guard gap, ought to have plenty of room to maneuver.
Getting Sapp, even in the twilight of an often brilliant career, is a move characteristic of the Raiders, even coming off a disastrous 2003 season that left many critics insisting that it is time for the franchise to begin rebuilding with younger players.
Part of the sales pitch to Sapp and Rosenhaus, though, was the manner in which Davis has always taken care of veteran players, on and off the field. And Sapp was intrigued by likely being able to finish his career with one of the NFL's most recognizable franchises.
There is also a bit of gamesmanship, not surprisingly, in the fact the Raiders staged an all-out yet surreptitious whirlwind courtship. Remember, Sapp played his entire career with Tampa Bay, the team to which coach Jon Gruden defected after leading the Raiders to a berth in Super Bowl XXXVII.
Delayed revenge was not the prime reason the Raiders jumped into the Sapp Derby, but it would be naïve to believe it didn't play at least a minor part in Oakland's going after him so late in the process.
There is little doubt that Bengals officials, who were confident when they went to bed on Friday night that they would close a deal by Saturday afternoon, will be stung by the unexpected reversal. Cincinnati executives probably will feel used by Sapp and Rosenhaus, who spent long hours Friday night negotiating with the Bengals.
League sources said both sides bargained in good faith and with the knowledge that there could be another team or two still chasing Sapp and attempting to steal him from the clutches of Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis.
It became somewhat apparent, after the Bengals made a final offer and then did not hear from Rosenhaus for a few hours, that their worst fears might be realized. Sources close to Sapp maintained, though, he was prepared to join the Bengals until the Raiders entered the picture and came out of the chute with a first offer that captured his attention.
Arguably the best and also best-known player remaining in the unrestricted free agent pool, Sapp tired about a week ago of waiting for the Bucs to send some sort of signal they wanted him back in 2004, and instead went on the offensive. He instructed Rosenhaus to follow up on inquiries with other clubs and, at the same time, he admitted publicly his time with the Bucs might have come to a close.
Landing a player of Sapp's profile, even if his game has declined a bit the past couple seasons, would have been a huge acquisition for the Bengals. Not only would he have helped anchor the interior of a line that slumped badly against the run in the second half of the 2003 season, but Sapp, 31, also would have been a presence in the locker room, and provided an attitude and swagger the Bengals have rarely displayed.
When he arrived in Tampa as a first-round draft choice in 1995, the Bucs were in the midst of a string of 12 consecutive seasons with double-digit defeats. But by Sapp's third season with the franchise, Tampa Bay was in the playoffs, and that began a run of five straight postseason appearances.
Obviously, he hopes to return the Raiders to prominence before his career ends.
On his Web site, Sapp had listed six franchises with which he would consider continuing his career. He never cited Oakland as a potential new home. But it had been clear for the past week that Cincinnati was more aggressive than other suitors. In end, though, the Bengals could not finish off a deal for which their long-suffering fans were clamoring.
It is believed that there were also relatively serious discussions with the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs, but neither team was in the same financial bracket as the Raiders' offer. As a precursor to his departure, Sapp on Saturday posted on his Web site a picture of a tombstone. Inscribed on the tombstone was a Buccaneers logo and the words: "1995-2003. Thanks."
There were no substantive discussions during the free agency period between top Bucs officials and representatives for Sapp, and it appeared early in the week that both sides were prepared to move on.
Sapp is coming off a 2003 season in which he totaled 58 tackles and five sacks. The sacks were the fewest since his rookie season in 1995. While many observers insist Sapp is not the dominant force of just a few years ago, the former University of Miami star can still take over a game for stretches. And given the lack of interest by a Bucs team he helped to build into a contender, it is a good bet the prideful Sapp will feel that he has something to prove to Tampa Bay officials and other skeptics as well.
The departure of Sapp, along with the release of strong safety John Lynch on Wednesday, marks the end of an era for the Bucs.
The 12th overall player chosen in the '95 draft, Sapp has 524 career tackles along with 77 sacks. He has also forced 16 fumbles, had eight recoveries and deflected 20 passes. Sapp has appeared in 140 games and started in 130 of them.

Laraine has been married since 1991 and celebrated her 55th B-day in March. Was Sandeep in high school when he was her boyfriend? Was he taken advantage of by this older woman? Do we need to report this deviant behavior to the authorities?
Sorry to be off topic, but that is such a strangely HOT picture of Laraine Newman.
David's message resonated with Sandeep to the point that he was able to think outside of this "one issue" transportation debate.
Wow, Sandeep must be a thousandaire!
Laraine was definitely a hottie. My current favorite SNL hottie is Kristin Wiig.
Har har!
Josh, it's just great the way you use the Slog to talk smack with your buddies! You are so cool!
Get back to high school, dip.
Well, you might want to ask Sandeep about that. I'm not so sure David's message resonated with him, though.
But that's not much, really, dollarwise. Especially if you're not wasting your cash on cars ...

Whatever @8,
You're not up to date. Kaushik isn't currently working for Sims. He's on leave doing lots and lots of campaign$.
Calling out to most Stranger Staffers- LEAVE and take a paycut - in the long run, you'll be much happier.
And you don't think he is working for Sims.
BTW the LBloom number was from 2006.
I went to David Della's kickoff and was very unhappy to hear his full-throated defense of rebuilding the Viaduct. I've since met Tim Burgess several times and found his thinking to be more in line with mine. For what it is worth, I am supporting him in this race.
Sandeep Conehead? I always suspected he might be from France.

By U.S. Army MEDCOM News ReleaseFebruary 29, 2008
WASHINGTON, D.C., Feb. 28, 2008-The Armed Services Blood Program (ASBP) has implemented a new policy regarding tattoos that may allow more donors to give blood to the military. This new policy, which went into effect Nov. 30, 2007, allows donors with new tattoos to give blood again after just one week, instead of the previous one-year deferral period; provided the tattoo was acquired in a state-regulated tattoo parlor. This new policy allows the ASBP to accept donations from more individuals wishing to contribute to the military's blood supply for combat areas and at home.
"Recent tattoos are one of the most common reasons people get temporarily deferred from donating," said Capt. Warren Brown, officer in charge at Fort Gordon's Kendrick Memorial Blood Center, Ga. "This will increase the size of our donor pool - every donor counts."
The AABB, formerly known as the American Association of Blood Banks, establishes standards for the American blood bank industry. These standards stipulate that for potential donors with tattoos to be considered under the new policy, they must have received their tattoo in state-regulated tattoo parlors. The states are not compelled at this time to regulate or license tattoo parlors. For those states that do, the regulations require the use of sterile needles and the one-time use of ink to ensure no risk of being exposed to blood-borne diseases like HIV or hepatitis from the needle or ink. Those potential donors who get tattooed in states not regulated according to AABB standards must wait one year before giving blood.
A total of 20 states regulate tattoo facilities and donors are encouraged to contact their nearest military blood donor center for more details. "Though many states are not on the approved list yet, the Armed Services Blood Program Office will review the policy on an annual basis to ensure currency," said Navy Cdr, Michael C. Libby, director of the Armed Services Blood Program Office.
To schedule a donation appointment or to contact your local blood donor center regarding the tattoo policy, please visit www.militaryblood.dod.mil .

I am getting a radio soon and would much rather have the sound using the speakers on my iMac than its own. The radio has a speaker jack that claims it outputs more than 2.4w of power. I am not too familiar with how much power these audio lines normally use so I was wondering if I can plug the radio right into my input jack or if I need to buy a special piece that allows me to do this safely?
In general, if you're going to feed a speaker output into a microphone input, you should buy a "line-in adapter" that attenuates the signal. This protects the input and gives you better quality sound.
In practice feeding the signal in directly "probably" won't damage the microphone input, so long as you don't crank the volume all the way up. 2.4w is not that much.

This volume, with a glowing and well deserved tribute by Dr. Allen K. Krause, comes at an opportune time and adds much to this important subject. Dr. Myers, with his vast experience as head of the Lymanhurst School, discusses fully in various sections tuberculosis in infancy, in childhood and in the teen ages and among elderly people. His chapters on exposure to tuberculosis, diagnosis, and nonpulmonary signs of tuberculosis in children are all well treated and should be carefully studied by all men in the practice of medicine. Of especial value is his dissertation on tuberculosis among elderly people and the dangers of dissemination of disease by them to the younger generation.

Hippo ranching in Louisiana, proposed in 1910 by two adversarial spies
The United States is dealing with a booming population and shortage of good rangeland to raise cattle, paired with an increase in foreign demand for beef, resulting in a spike in the cost of meat. Frederick Burnham and Fritz Duquesne, formerly sworn enemies, put aside their grievances to answer the meat question, and an unrelated invasion of the Brazilian Water Hyacinth in one fell swoop with the the introduction of African Hippopotamuses to the bayous of Louisiana.

Fritz Haber
Fritz Haber's story is the story of the double edged sword of science. He won the Nobel prize in 1918 for his groundbreaking work in breaking the nitrogen cycle for Germany's WWI efforts, but it's been estimated that two out of every five people now living would not have been born if it weren't for artificial fertilizers created using his process. He also spent much of the war developing poison gases; first chlorine (after watching its first use, Haber's wife committed suicide) and later Zyklon B (the cyanide insecticide later used against his fellow Jews in concentration camps). He died alone and in poverty in Switzerland. But the lessons of his life haven't quite been forgotten.

Video shows off White's new halfpipe trickAP Photo
Shaun White flies off a jump during the World Cup U.S. Grand Prix snowboarding qualifications in Frisco, Colo. earlier this month.
Shaun White's adding a new twist for Sochi.
Well, half a twist, really.
On a video posted to a sponsor's YouTube site Thursday, White shows the world the trick he's been working on for the upcoming Olympics.
It's a frontside double-cork 1440, which resembles his Double McTwist 1260 but adds another half revolution of twist inside the two head-over-heels flips.
"Just that subtle a change, it throws the whole axis of the trick off," White told The Associated Press earlier this month. "It's a completely different thing."
White's McTwist 1260 had been the most difficult trick on the halfpipe.
He perfected it in the lead-up to the Vancouver Olympics and landed it on his second run at the games, using it even though he'd already wrapped up the gold medal on his first run.
He says he's pleased with the 1440 and has no problem showing the competition what he's got up his sleeve.
"Just because you can see the trick doesn't mean it's easy to duplicate," he said.
White has been dealing with an ankle injury over the first two Olympic qualifying events.
He hurt his left ankle during a halfpipe run at the Dew Tour in Breckenridge. He ended up finishing second there, then pulling out of the halfpipe contest the next week in Copper Mountain so he could focus on slopestyle.
The next selection event starts Jan. 8 in Breckenridge, giving White a few weeks to heal. Through the first two halfpipe qualifiers, no competitor has tried anything more than a double cork 1260, meaning there may not be any pressure on White to unveil his new trick.
Of course, the two-time defending Olympic champion doesn't always see things that way.
"It's time to just do those tricks," he said in the AP interview, which came a few days before he hurt his ankle. "If you're going to do them, do them now. It's a new one I'm hoping to slide into the run."MORE IN Sports WireCHICAGO The Chicago White Sox suspended ace Chris Sale five days without pay for destroying...

We use separate memcached servers only for session data so it hasn't been an issue for us. However I'm concerned by the added code/complexity required to support clear(). In our usage of the memcached session store users are moved between servers based on load. So if the sessions are cleared on one appserver what mechanism is used to trigger the other servers to call getCounter() and reset their notion of the session counter? Similarly if an appserver restarts it will get the latest session namespace key but appservers that didn't call clear() won't have the latest session namespace key. I'd much rather the session store fail early and raise an exception if you try to clear(). The less code in the session implementation the safer I'd feel. Best Regards, Steve

Paul Allen enters his 15th season in 2016 as the Vikings radio play-by-play voice is KFAN radio mid-day personality. Joining Allen as the color commentator was former Vikings linebacker and coach Pete Bercich.
Allen served as the Vikings Internet web cast play-by-play voice during the 2000 season and called one Vikings game during the 2001 season.
Bercich returns for his 10th season with the broadcasts in 2016 and brings a decade of NFL experience from the field and sideline. A 7th-round draft pick by the Vikings in 1994, Bercich overcame the odds and played for the team from 1995-2000. A standout special teamer, Bercich parlayed his knowledge of the game into a job coaching with the team from 2002-05.
Joining Allen and Bercich from the sidelines and co-hosting the pre-game show was former Vikings punter Greg Coleman. Coleman punted for the Vikings from 1978-87 and is the team's all-time leader in punts (721), punting yards (29,391) and ranks 2nd in punts inside the 20-yard line (154).
In addition to live Vikings games, KFAN is also home to weekly Vikings programming all week long. For full details on KFAN's weekly Vikings-related lineup, click here.

Another option would be to use an online bookmarking service like del.ici.ous.

Employee Recognition
Gold Star Award
Cheryl Sinkler - Laundry/Housekeeping
Cheryl Sinkler has worked for VCHS for almost 21 years. During this time, she has been part of our laundry department, as well as helped with housekeeping at our Burwell Clinic. You know that the job will be done on time, and done right, when Cheryl is working. She takes pride in what she does and does so in a caring and professional manner. Cheryl is one of those people you meet in the hall and know she will say hello to you by name.
Cheryl exceeds expectations as she keeps laundry services going for both the hospital and Valley View Living Center, as well as ensures the Burwell Clinic is cleaned with the utmost care.
Starting her laundry shift at 5:00 a.m., Cheryl regularly returns to clean the Burwell Clinic at 6:00 p.m. and on Saturdays.
We sometimes take for granted the little things, such as clean linens, towels, etc. Hospital patients, however, appreciate clean bedding, towels, etc., and knowing Cheryl is on the job, means that this small comfort of home is always taken care of in the most professional manner.
Cheryl is well respected by her fellow employees and is a role model in her hard working and positive attitude and the way she carries out her work at all times.
DEDICATED, PROFESSIONAL, KIND, and HARD WORKING are just a few words to describe what a special lady Cheryl is and how deserving she is of being recognized as a Gold Star!
Congratulations, Cheryl! You are a Gold Star!

Blue and white abstract photograph of bare winter trees swaying against and overcast sky. Modern art for the office, dining room, and living room.
Life can be stuffy, but your home doesn't have to be. I designed this nature sketch-like photograph to add a bit of fun to your art collection while still fitting with your modern, slightly minimal decor. The movement of the trees remind me of grasses swaying in the wind or a detail of fur on the backs of our fuzzy friends. Furry Field will add a smile to any room but we think it's lightheartedness goes especially well as a wrapped canvas in a family room, guest bedroom, or reception area.

Well hello! We're pleased to meet you!
I'm Jennifer Squires Ross and together with my husband Darren Ross we run a photography business out of our home in London, Ontario, Canada. I specialize in picture making and Darren is fondly known as the CFO (chief fax operator), he takes care of administrative tasks, plus he makes a mean hot chocolate; earning himself extra points at 5am when I'm off to a location shoot.
I've been photographing professionally since 1996, back in the days of over-gelled lights, polaroids, and darkrooms. These days I take a more organic approach to photography, using as much natural light as possible, highlighting what matters most, and allowing it to sing.
I've won awards for my work, been published in magazines across North America, and have work in private collections in Canada, the USA, the UK, Australia, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, and beyond. But what thrills me more is to see the the world through the tranquility of my lens.
I specialize in fine art, editorial, and commercial photography, and I want to share my world with you.
Because starting my day watching the sunrise while I stand alone on a quiet beach is magical, inspiring, uplifting, and really healthy for my soul."

Skip to comments.Florida doctor tells Obama health care supporters to go elsewhere
Posted on 04/02/2010 7:00:32 AM PDT by Mamzelle
MOUNT DORA A doctor who considers the national health-care overhaul to be bad medicine for the country posted a sign on his office door telling patients who voted for President Barack Obama to seek care "elsewhere." "I'm not turning anybody away that would be unethical," Dr. Jack Cassell, 56, a Mount Dora urologist and a registered Republican opposed to the health plan, told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday. "But if they read the sign and turn the other way, so be it." The sign reads: "If you voted for Obama
seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your healthcare begin right now, not in four years."
(Excerpt) Read more at orlandosentinel.com ...
"I'm not turning anybody away that would be unethical," Dr. Jack Cassell, 56, a Mount Dora urologist and a registered Republican opposed to the health plan, told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday."
Moral of the story...don't piss off the Urologist...
Who is John Galt?
Voting to steal from your neighbors and force them into involuntary servitude has consequences. Voting to silence criticism of the Obamessiah by shutting down talk radio and outright criminalization also has consequences.
"Dr. Jack Cassell, 56, "
He's about to retire, and is seeking a bit of revenge, and a bit of fun too!
Great idea, except Obama has already pulled the doc's taxes for audit.
There will be thousands more doctors tell the ghetto mooches the same thing, "we don't accept Medicaid, go elsewhere".
My wife works for a private practice for an OB/GYN doctor and starting next week he will no longer accept Medicare or Medicaid because he already takes a loss on it now and with at least 32 million more there's no way he can survive.
"Moral of the story...dont piss off the Urologist..."
They can cause you REAL pain!!
Seeking employment? If you're a democRAT, socialist, marxist or other government lemming go somewhere else!
I for one will NOT hire any of these parasites!
I'd go to this doctor just for this reason. When a man loves honor and liberty more than life, I know I can trust him.
They can use my tax dollars to give Grayson and the other whiners a post-partum abortion. If they need an urologist theyre over the hill already and need one of those red or blue pills the president wants to prescribe.
piss on Obamacare lovers (if you have trouble doing this, seek another urologist)
Well,they're both Harvard types so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
As for this doctor in FL...he's just begging for a lawsuit or some disciplinary action from the state licensing board.
I just figured it out. The Obama administration is like the nation's kidney stone. Hopefully it will pass quickly, but if it stays in too long it could kill us.
Obie and his legions are gonna crucify this guy.
It's only a matter of time before physicians will be forced to accept Medicare and Medicaid.
It's those programs that caused the increase in health care costs. Once the government got involved and mandated their reimbursement schedule things spiraled out of control.
Look at the two areas of medicine which the government hasn't set the reimbursement rates: cosmetic surgery and lasik surgery. Costs have gone down in those areas.
So often "registered Republicans" in FL have let us down, but this doctor means business.
they'd have to prove he's denying care..he's not. I hope he stands up to whatever criticism he gets...we've layed down too long and voices have to be heard.
What you don't understand is that literally MILLIONS of
Americans will jump over the cliff for Obama today if needed. These are dedicated socialists, and nothing stops them.
When they do that, look for lots of doctors to "retire"—or sit it out until we can accomplish a regime change.
You're right. Physicians in their 50's will retire. I personally know quite a few who plan to do that. They're not just talking they are actively taking steps preparing to do just that.
I frequently suggest to those doctors who cannot retire—try to take a long sabbatical, maybe a year off while it all shakes out.
Coming soon from the media...Dr. Jack Cassell is:
1) racist in not accepting black folk
2) Greedy because he seeks profit rather than social responsibility in uplifting all of society
3) hypocritical for not upholding his oath
4) an unenlightened republican
5) uncaring in not spreading his talents evenly for the good of society
Given the thuggery of Hussein and the rest of the radical left, this guy is really showing some guts. Now if only we had some republican politicians who would do the SAME!!!
"As for this doctor in FL...he's just begging for a lawsuit or some disciplinary action from the state licensing board."
I agree with you that all types of retaliations will be attempted, but do you feel that they are justified? Do you believe that our forefathers intended for the law to limit free speech in this manner?
I, personally, have had it up to here with these whiners who want to jail or muzzle anyone that uses offensive language. But, the real kicker is the unelected, liberal judges that get to selectively decide just which speech is offensive. Their goal is nothing less than mind control and suppression of dissenting speech!
Speaking of Grayson, I bet he's already considering a law requiring doctors to accept Medicare patients.
Very similar to what fascists do whenever they take over.
They dictate prices for goods and services,
then dictate that providers MUST provide at that price or face penalties.
I believe they'd actually have to find someone that was refused care based on their vote for 0bama.
I think it would have been far more effective to do what another doctor did, and announce that as of April 1, 2010, insurance will no longer be accepted: services will be paid for at the time of service, if a patient wants insurance reimbursement, it's the patient's responsibility to seek it (if you need help from our staff for codes, etc., that's a separate charge of $50/hr, 1/2 hour minimum), and, overdue accounts will be referred to another provider, but will not longer be treated.
"I believe theyd actually have to find someone that was refused care based on their vote for 0bama."
When we dismiss a patient, we tell them we will be available for emergency care for a period of 30 days, but that they should seek ongoing care elsewhere.
We also point out that in our area (as in most of the country) that there is a plethora of healthcare options and that if they are stupid to find an alternative doctor, we will provide them with a list.
There is some misinterpretation on this thread of what a private-practing doctor "must" do. We are not a public utility. This doctor is perfectly within his rights to refuse his services to anyone he chooses. The gray area comes in emergency care only, in which there is at least a moral obligation to provide initial rudimentary services.
That would make a great sign on a doctor's office!!
My Internist in Asheville, NC. who see lots of medicare/medicade patients and is in an office alone, says last year he saw a total of 120 more patients and earned $8,000. less than the year before. Something's got to give. He says he's looking into going private.
My neighbor's internist has a sign posted in his office: "We are no longer accepting any medicare or medicade patients."
Sign posted in my gunshop reads: "Due to recent legislation out of Washington, D.C., anyone who voted for the current president will be charged a 10% fee to defray increased business costs."
I had one customer get ugly when he read it, and he told me that it was not funny. I replied that it's not supposed to be funny, since it's not a joke.
In addition to the insulting reimbursements and onerous paperwork burden, our no-show rate for Medicaid patients approached 85%.
Not that the verb is (happily) in the past tense.
Medicaid = Obama voters = non-compliant lazy cheating dirtbags = filthy entitled drug seekers = disruptive to practice = high risk liability nightmares = little or no reimbursement
We'll cut some incredible deals for those willing to pay cash, just to save us the man-hours.
"Medicaid = Obama voters = non-compliant lazy cheating dirtbags = filthy entitled drug seekers = disruptive to practice = high risk liability nightmares = little or no reimbursement."
Nailed it, Doctor.
Carter dictated prices of gas when he was in office. It led to rationing. You take the free market controls away and there has to be a way to control demand. In this case you will have to control supply by mandating that doctors accept medicare at a loss. What do they do when doctors quit and there aren't enough new doctors to replace them?
Appropriate choice of words!
Polling on the local newspaper website is 85% IN FAVOR of the doctor's actions.
We are all Sparticus, or is that Reagan...
We fight - but NOT with violence - which dems love to accuse us of - but with non-violent withdrawal of all support for anyone or anything liberal.
Many thanks to the good doctor...
He needs to be educated on the realities of the Canadian system. I had a friend diagnosed with a heart condition. It took them three months to get an appointment for a followup in-depth scan, requiring traveling from North Bay to Toronto for the exam (about 250 miles). It confirmed she needed a triple bypass. Because of its seriousness, she was placed on the "expedite" list. Even with that, she was scheduled for the surgery seven months later. She died within two months. Say what you will, stating their system is "underfunded" is a bad joke.

I'm using Twenty Ten. Have uploaded header images several times over the six weeks I've been working on my blog using this theme. But today, when uploading a new header image file (.png at 940x198...the exact dimensions specified for the header for this theme) I:
->clicked browse to select the file...okay
->clicked upload
->Firefox 3.6.13 indicated it's uploading but returns a relatively blank page with just the left hand menu bar (Dashboard, Posts, Media, etc.).
This same thing happens to me when creating blog posts and seems to occur if I've saved and previewed the file too many times. I've been able to resolve the individual post problem by copying and pasting the content of the post into a fresh post window and then deleting the original. But I don't know how to workaround the issue with the header image not uploading.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Washer Wins $1,000 at DeKalb County Fair
Michael Washer of Smithville was the winner of $1,000 at the DeKalb County Fair Friday night.
It was only the second night this week that a winner has claimed the cash prize. On Tuesday night Susan Martin was a $1,000 cash winner.
Since there was no $1,000 winners on Monday night, Wednesday night, or Thursday night, a total of $4,000 will be given away Saturday night at 9:00 p.m. There will be four winners, each receiving $1,000.
Your admission ticket is your ticket for the drawing and you must be present to win. Since Saturday is the last night of the fair, the drawing will continue until all the money is given away.

The Forza Motorsport 4: Limited Collector's Edition is chock-full of extra cars you'll love driving in Forza 4... assuming you didn't order the game from Best Buy.

Last week we showed you a photo of Lamborghini Murcielago being serviced at Best Buy and opined about why it was a bad idea. Now we've found the Facebook page from one of the techs who worked on the Lambo — and it makes an even better argument.[jump]
The general consensus yesterday was that bringing your Lamborghini Murcielago to Best Buy is a horrible idea. Not everyone agrees. Meet Colby Stockbrine of Pensacola, Florida. He's a Best Buy tech and he sent me this response.
This photo provided by a reader shows car crime on the level of taking your Lamborghini to Best Buy to get a stereo (or DVD player or iPad) installed. Because it's someone taking their Lamborghini Murcielago to Best Buy for a stereo installation.

The North American reveal of Mitsubishi's iMiev electric vehicle came with an interesting piece of news: Best Buy's Geek Squad will snag four iMievs for use as fleet vehicles in the near future. What else is afoot?
Though not as common in the Colonies, certain markets utilize a Radio Database System to send song info over the FM band.

Theyre pupusas are the best I have ever tryed they have plenty of vegeterian dishes to chooses from wich made it easier for all of our friends to order from there menu. Is a family owned small restaurant and the owner took the time to chat with us for a little moment while we waited for our food and gave us some history of theyre traditional Salvadorean dishes. Him and his team made us feel completly welcomed.\r I highly recommend LAS CAZUELAS RESTAURANT as weekly get together spot for meetings or to unwine after a hard day of work.

I joined the seizure group since Savannah has had seizures. I feel like I am being ignored. This is the only group I have been in that I feel a part of the group. People actually talk to me here and I get my questions answered. It is really disappointing when you go to a group for help and they ignore you. Well I guess if you all don't mind I will just continue posting here and forget the other group.
Comments (3)
I actually have not been in this group since Connie was two because I have an autistic son and a baby girl who eat most my attention and just wandered in hear and saw your post. I'm sorry you were ignored in the seizure group. My son has seizures and I know how scarry it is. I have never been in the seizure group but a lot of the ladies in the Delayed Darling group and the Autism group have delt with seizures so they may have some suport to offer you if you need some help. Feel free to message me if you need to. I've been ther. I'm not usually here. I just wandered in because I was feeling nostalgic with my big girl's birth day comming up.
Thank you for your help. I will definitely send you a message if I have any questions.
I am also a member of Delayed Darlings. It is the best group on BabyCenter!!

This is going down as one of my all time favorite recipes. Absolutely phenomenal. As my husband said this recipe is "special" but it is incredibly simple to make. We might just have this weekly! My only complaint was that there was not enough!
another great recipe from the famous kittencal! i omitted the eggs, as i always do for carbonaras (i know it's not technically a carbonara without them but i like it!) but other than that, made as posted. loved it! will make again! thanks for posting.

Using the charset ISO-8859-1, WordPress deletes all text after the first accented character. A text like this, stayed that way after "unless".
It worked for me, could it be a database collation issue? is yours set to utf8_general_ci? if not try converting it to that and see if that helps.
I tested with WordPress 3.0.2 and 3.1 Beta 16732, and the same error happens. Even changing the collation of the database to utf8_general_ci, the error still repeats. The error is repeated with latin1_swedish_ci collation.
I'll prod someone to have a look at this thread.
Not sure what's going on here, but if it was reproduced in 3.0.2 as well, then this isn't a 3.1 beta problem.
Worth checking Trac for related tickets. I imagine one exists.
Thanks for replying- I wasn't sure about this one.
I thought this was a problem in Beta, but he was also present in earlier versions. I'm sure this error is not PHP or MySQL.
What about Mod_Rewrite?
I think that is not a correct way to solve the problem. I prefer that this be corrected with PHP, rather than a .htacess file, what I consider a quick fix, but somehow, very bad.
Er... Not mod_rewrite, I'm sorry. My brain fell out.
mod security
I've had hellacious problems with that killing random words in posts.
Nothing of the kind.
What does that mean?
You don't have mod_security installed on your server?
Though it is strange, no. Unless my httpd.conf is incorrect, anything mod_security.

So what does that mean?
"You will have to have at minimum five to ten percent equity in your home, a very good credit score and a squeaky clean history of mortgage payments."
Esswein says it could be a problem if you've had a payment that's more than 30 days late in the last year.
One more thing you'll need: some cash on hand.
"Lenders also want to know that you have enough readily accessible savings that you can cover at least two months of mortgage payments in an emergency."
Kiplinger's says in some cases, you can refinance even if your house is underwater right now - that is you owe more than it's worth.
There are special programs designed to help. You can see if you qualify at www.makinghomeaffordable.gov.

Christopher Bjerkness, Duluth's rubber ball slasher, gets off light
Duluth's exercise balls are on alert after serial ball-slasher Christopher Bjerkness was given a stayed prison sentence.
One of the most bizarre stories to come out of Duluth, Bjerkness has a history of breaking into buildings housing rubber exercise balls and slashing them with a knife to fulfill a sexual urge.
Bjerkness, 34, was in court this week following his latest episode last May. In that incident, police said staff at Duluth's Chester Creek Academy caught him in the school's gym with the balls -- before he could do any damage.
Bjerkness pled guilty to third-degree burglary for breaking into the school's fitness center. He was sentenced on Wednesday to 23 months in prison, but his time in the slammer is stayed for four years of supervised probation. During that time Bjerkness will receive treatment while living in a group home for people with traumatic brain injuries. In 2005, Bjerkness was convicted of breaking into the University of Minnesota-Duluth's sports complex several times to damage 40 exercise balls. In 2006, he slashed the balls at the Polinsky Medical Rehabilitation Center. Then he broke into SMDC-Duluth Clinic West building in 2009 and slashed the rubber balls there.
In the summer of 2010, he bolted a halfway house where he was staying to fulfill a probation deal, but cops caught up with him before he put more rubber balls in jeopardy.
Bjerkness says he can't explain his fetish. He claims he suffers from fetal alcohol syndrome, bipolar depression, and cerebral palsy. That information has been confirmed by his adoptive parents.
St. Louis prosecutor Leslie Beiers told the Duluth News Tribune that the state hopes Bjerkness can buck past history and stay away from tantalizing round rubber orbs this time around.
"If he's not able to comply with treatment and make some progress, the state at some point will be in the position of having to ask that he go to prison. And we hope that we don't have to do that," she said.

I have an ESXi 5.0 free host with an internal datastore of 7.2K 5 disk RAID 5 using a PERC 710 mini RAID controller in a Dell Poweredge R620 Server with 32GB Ram and a 12 Core Xeon. I seem to get slow write speeds in the guests so I checked out ESXTOP and I see 15MB/s write speed there on this host, which is comprable to the guests. What could be causing such horrible write speeds? Is RAID 5 really this slow to write??
Note that with a RAID 5 implementation, you will see immense penalty for small writes. Any write which is not going to overwrite an entire stripe (i.e. is smaller than the stripe set size) will induce a read operation off all disks, the re-calculation of the XOR parity and a write operation to at least two of the array's disks. Using a 5 disk array and a 64KB stripe element size (710's default and minimum), this would happen for every write operation smaller than 256KB. The basic outcome is that for a small writes workload, your write performance is going to be even worse than a single drive of your array would be capable of performing.
This obviously would cause everybody drop the idea of using RAID5 ever if it were not for the caches and the splendid read performance a RAID5 array is exhibiting. The caches would usually catch any small writes, possibly group them and flush them to disks whenever convenient. If small writes only happen occasionally and do not overrun the cache buffers, you are not likely to see problems with RAID5 performance. If the cache buffers are already filled with yet unflushed requests or if the cache is not set up to work as "write-back" (or has a non-functional / discharged BBU), you will see abysmal performance from the array. So you should be checking both - your access pattern as well as the cache status of your controller.

Pimp My Cause matches marketers with causes
Fuse, Getty Images/Fuse
Paul Skinner wanted to be a matchmaker.
But he wasn't matching would-be Romeos and Juliets; he wanted to pair charities with marketing pros looking to volunteer their time to a good cause.
So why not create an online dating service? The platform, with the cheeky name Pimp My Cause, is a place where nonprofits and charities, along with professional marketers — strategists, graphic designers and PR pros — fill out applications and shop for just the right match.
The idea came when Skinner was doing pro bono work for two or three causes a year while he was working as a professional marketer on campaigns for big companies like L'Oreal in their Paris headquarters. He could only do so much on his own, and he wanted to create a "multiplier effect."
Since he started U.K.-based Pimp My Cause in 2010, over 1,000 nonprofits and charities from the U.S. and the U.K. have posted profiles to the site, along with hundreds of marketers from Endinburgh to Chicago. Skinner estimates that they have completed $5 million of pro bono work for causes, and since every dollar spent on marketing comes out to about $5 in benefit, that comes to $25 million worth of benefits to date.
"I wanted to go beyond my own slender resources, and it shows how you can raise the ceiling," says Skinner. "It's about scale."
Combining powers
Conservation group Blue Ventures works in places where the ocean is vital to local people — and takes a science-based approach to creating sustainable marine and aquaculture practices. Quite quickly, it realized that part of a holistic approach to conservation included human development as well, such as reproductive health.
Toward that end, Blue Ventures did a fabulous job of promoting sexual health awareness among the Vezo people it works with in southwest Madagascar. After launching an education campaign, it conducted a survey and found that 88 percent of people said that condoms protect against STIs. The only problem? Only 15 percent said they actually used them.
The gap in behavior was perplexing. "Basically, we had to figure out a way to make it cool," says founder Alasdair Harris.
Pimp My Cause matched Blue Ventures with brand marketing giant Ogilvy, whose team helped it come up with a strategy to make condom use "normal," by using Blue Ventures' existing campaign, called "Vezo Aho," meaning "I am Vezo," that used social identity to encourage Vezos to use sustainable fishing practices
The campaign would extend the association of community pride to condom use, and promote it through providing condoms at communal washing areas, and sponsoring radio PSA's. Bracelets — ala the ubiquitous yellow Lance Armstrong "Live Strong" arm bands, would promote solidarity and identity.
"They [Ogilvy] talked about how behavior is often socially located. It's not about encouraging the individual, it's about social norms. We were struggling in this area before we got their take on it," says Harris.
The NGO of the future
Ogilvy's expertise in social psychology and behavior change is valuable to Harris, who is no slouch himself — he's a marine biologist and visiting post-doctoral researcher at the University of Oxford, an advisor to the U.N. Environment Program, has won international awards for his conservation and sustainability work, and was commended in the "Enterprising Young Brits' awards.
The combining of unique talents and knowledge is all part of the pay-off for Skinner, who sees Pimp My Cause as a collaboration generator, which he sees as a model for the "NGO of the future."
