Buffalo News reports: 'In a recent ranking of the league's backup quarterbacks, Sporting News did not share Whaley's lofty view of Manuel. The publication ranked him No. 18 among No. 2 quarterbacks, with author Bill Bender writing "Tyrod Taylor is the established starter, and the battle for the backup spot between EJ Manuel and Cardale Jones will be interesting.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy won't face discipline from NFL for nightclub brawl [1:55 AM]
Syracuse Post Standard reports: 'In April, Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams said McCoy wouldn't be charged in the incident, concluding that he couldn't prove who initiated the February fight in a Philadelphia after-hours club.

Do the Bills have sustainable defensive depth? [1:50 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'Defensively, the deepest position they have is along the defensive line, consisting of some combination of Cobin Bryant, Adolphus Washington, Leger Douzable, and Jerel Worthy coming off the bench in the event of an injury.

When will Bills RB Karlos Williams be ready? [1:48 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'The best case scenario for the Bills is if he kept to his workout and eating regimen, and hit the initial target weight set for him. Even then, the Bills might want to start him out with conditioning only, just to get him where they want him for the start of the season.'
Who are the training camp sleepers? [1:47 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'The tight end offers athleticism on par with Charles Clay. Slightly taller and longer than Clay, Annen demonstrated impressive speed for a player his size (6-4, 247) and sure hands. The coaches took notice as well as he was getting consistent reps with the first team offense in the spring practices. With a firm working knowledge of the offense after serving on the practice squad late last season, Annen could land a coveted roster spot at tight end if his play from the spring carries through training camp.'
How big a jump can the passing game make? [1:46 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"Everyone has something to prove in this league and if you think you don't something is wrong," he said. "That's how I play.

Buffalo News reports: '"But Rex is a great football coach. I've never once said that he wasn't a good football coach. I hope he can do it. He's got the players this year. I think you keep Tyrod Taylor healthy ... we have a very good chance, because our defense is pretty solid. We have some weapons on offense. I'm excited about this year. I'm excited about what Rex brings, I just hope that they stay healthy so that he can be here for 10 or 15 more years."'
NFL.com writer predicts nine wins for the Bills; here's why we agree [1:58 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'A one-game improvement from 2015 might not be enough to sneak the Bills into the playoffs, but it would probably mean Rex Ryan returns for a third season.'

Rock Hill Herald reports: 'The ball is in the Bills' court.'
Bills' Mike Gillislee gives back to DeLand with youth football camp [1:56 AM]

Bills offseason report: Rex Ryan a bit tempered, but expectations are not [1:55 AM]
USA Today reports: '"I've changed a lot," Ryan said of his first season with the Bills. "I went back to knowing that, you know what, I'm a guy that believes in myself a great deal, and I believe in the guys that are around me. But the way that I grew up, my way of playing defense, in my opinion, is the best way. And I think more than ever, it showed me that, and I'm not blaming anything else.'
Do the Bills have sustainable defensive depth? [1:54 AM]
WKBW-TV reports: 'By now we know full well about the strength of the team in the starters.

Should Stephon Gilmore hold out? LeSean McCoy's health and who might back him up [1:58 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'If he did hold out, the Bills could fine him up to $30,000 a day. That's a situation neither side would want to reach. Gilmore's teammates will certainly be watching to see how one of the team's best players is treated, but recent evidence suggests owners Terry and Kim Pegula take care of their own. Running back LeSean McCoy, left guard Richie Incognito, defensive tackle Marcell Dareus and left tackle Cordy Glenn have all gotten big-money extensions recently. That shows the front office is committed to rewarding those who perform well.'

BuffaloBills.com reports: '"It just felt great to be on the field," Williams told Buffalobills.com. "To put those cleats on and put that helmet on and running around. Doing what I love to do for a living is amazing. The words can't describe what it's like to be out there. Making plays is what I want to do. It's my job. It's what I'm supposed to do. Being able to play another year I'm just enjoying the experience."'

African American Studies Minor
Rooted in the prophetic traditions and collective achievements of African-descended peoples in the United States, African American Studies is an interdisciplinary minor that cultivates a rich understanding of the diverse perspectives within black culture.
Students who complete the African American Studies minor survey and will articulate the artistic, historical, social, political thought and experience of African Americans within the context of American culture more broadly. Students develop their critical thinking through courses that consider African American contributions to film, literature, rhetoric, sociology, politics and religion. The analytical skills gained in the African American Studies minor prepare students for advanced study in the humanities, social sciences, and law.

Swainson's Hawks (Buteo swainsoni) are large raptors with a breeding distribution extending across much of western North America where they were historically considered one of the most abundant raptors. Swainson's Hawks have declined precipitously in many parts of their range during the 20th century, and the historical range in California has been much reduced. In the Central Valley of California (CV), Swainson's Hawks exhibit behavioral and morphological characteristics apparently different from other regions. To describe the genetic diversity and population structure of Swainson's Hawks throughout their range, 19 microsatellite loci and 416 base pairs of the mitochondrial control region were analyzed. Microsatellite diversity appears high throughout the contemporary range. A Bayesian model-based analysis of microsatellite genotypes revealed clusters associated with the CV and the Great Basin/Great Plains region of North America (GBGP) with overlap between regions. F ST estimates suggest limited differentiation among Swainson's Hawks with isolation by distance. A heterozygote excess indicated a recent reduction in effective population size of Swainson's Hawks across all regions. Control region data revealed no population structure and provided evidence of historic population expansion in the GBGP. In the CV a weaker signature of population expansion was detected, possibly altered by recent declines. While genetic data suggests recent gene-flow across regions, apparent differences between the CV and GBGP in traits with potential fitness consequences (migratory behavior and morphology) along with marked decline in numbers in California call for careful conservation, management, and monitoring of Swainson's Hawks in the CV.

Wood Finishing Techniques and Advice
Three quick steps to greater efficiency
Written by Bob Flexner Monday, 17 January 2011 00:00
Improved efficiency translates into more income, so everyone wants to be more efficient. Here are three areas for you to look at with the goal of improving your work rate.
Crackle can create an eye-popping effect
Written by Greg Williams Monday, 13 December 2010 00:00
My wife and I recently went to a well-known furniture outlet store to look at a curio cabinet. Prominently displayed was a reddish cabinet with heavy crackle and a black, or almost-black, glaze. Crackle finishes have waxed and waned in popularity, but since the late 1970s there has been a steady demand for the technique used to produce those finishes. While there are many methods of producing a crackle finish, most involving glue as a breaking coat, none are easier or more controllable than a good crackle lacquer.
Ways to wipe out the worst problems

((PK, sorry but I already finished this long post and I won't post today anymore if you wish. Let's this be the end for today, ok?))
Souvi was sure that the princess wasn't anywhere to be seen. He did manage to find the orb location, though. It was just standing between piles on rubles, shining as a lighthouse on the coast. He jumped on the orbs direction and grabbed it firmly with his left hand.
Time to leave the shi--
He stopped halfway. Sakura was lying on the floor and was bleeding. Without a second though, Souvi dropped the orb and went on to her rescue. She hold her on his arms and smiled
"Beautiful, I don't think you can use the rope on this state. So, guess what, let's follow the plan!"
Souvi went over to the window Angel had broken and lit something spheric. Two minutes later, a small ship came over. Sakura and Souvi heard an amplified rather funny voice. "Ladies and gentleman, what can Rim do for ya?" He boarded and left Sakura on the nearest bed he could find. He went over to the cabin and told Rim: "Leave, now!" He then run as fast as he could to get the orb back, jumped, rolled and grabbed it from the floor.
Rim was good at following plans, as he was already leaving before Souvi made back into the ship. He jumped and got hold on the ship with one hand. He managed to come up and finally board the ship.
He could see the
Gliding Angel
, through the view window, on top of the walls, where Rueben probably was.
Rueben, I'll get you back too, just wait.

This invention relates generally to data storage and retrieval. More particularly, this invention relates to a technique for extracting a business intelligence object from one business intelligence system and deploying the business intelligence object in another business intelligence system.
Business Intelligence (BI) generally refers to software tools used to improve enterprise decision-making, where an enterprise may be a business, government entity, foundation, and the like. These tools are commonly applied to financial, human resource, marketing, sales, customer and supplier analyses. More specifically, these tools can include: reporting and analysis tools to present information; content delivery infrastructure systems for delivery and management of reports and analytics; data warehousing systems for cleansing and consolidating information from disparate sources; and data management systems, such as relational databases or On Line Analytic Processing (OLAP) systems used to collect, store, and manage raw data.
BI systems commonly process BI objects. A BI object is a software object that characterizes resources and data within a BI system. BI objects may include schedules, users, servers, data sources, reports, documents, files (e.g., spread sheets, graphics, data), and the like. A BI object typically contains metadata characterizing itself and/or other entities within a BI system. Metadata is information about information. Metadata typically constitutes a subset or representative values of a larger data set.
A BI object can include a metadata element, a data structure, or a combination of both. An example of a BI object that contains metadata characterizing other entities within a BI system is where a BI object characterizes an associated file. For example, the associated file could be a report—itself a BI object. BI objects include data structures, e.g., an associated file including a report, etc., and metadata elements, e.g., a BI object characterizing a data structure.
Sometimes it is desirable to move a BI object from one system to another, such as when developing content in a test system for deployment in a production system, when providing example BI objects for import to a customer system, when upgrading between two versions of a system, when moving new versions of objects from one system to another, and when backup and versioning of objects. BI object movement can be accomplished by having the source and target system simultaneously online and network accessible by a third system. In this solution, the third system exports objects from the source system, performs any required processing, and imports the objects into the target system. This solution is restrictive since both systems must be running and the import tool must be able to access both systems via a network. In addition, this solution is complicated because one or both systems may be located behind firewalls and/or may be located in physically remote locations and/or different networks. Furthermore, this solution can create a security risk as both systems may be accessible from a network.
Another problem is transporting third-party BI objects. New kinds of BI objects may be created by third-parties and published to a proprietary BI system. Frequently these new objects must be moved to other BI systems, yet the BI system designers have no prior knowledge of the structure of the BI objects. This problem can be resolved by re-writing the import tool to understand every new kind of BI object. This solution is restrictive since it is resource intensive and requires the coordination between import tool developers and all third-party BI object developers. Of course a system can be configured that does not support third-party BI objects. However, this solution restricts the extensibility of a BI system.
In view of the foregoing, it would be desirable to provide an improved technique for moving BI objects from one system to another system.
The invention includes a computer readable medium with executable instructions to create a first export file that defines attributes and relationships associated with a first business intelligence object. A second export file that characterizes a second business intelligence object associated with the first business intelligence object is formed. The first export file and the second export file are combined into a composite export entity. The composite export entity is distributed.
The invention also includes a computer readable medium with executable instructions to receive a composite export file including a first export file that defines attributes and relationships associated with a first business intelligence object and a second export file that characterizes a second business intelligence object associated with the first business intelligence object. The first business intelligence object and the second business intelligence object are merged into an object hierarchy of a target business intelligence system.
The invention is more fully appreciated in connection with the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Like reference numerals refer to corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
By way of example, various types of BI objects may be utilized in accordance with the invention, including:
Each kind of BI object may use a rules file. The rules file defines the structure of the BI object. Thus, the rules file creates a representation of an object and allows for the reconstruction of the object from its representation in the export file. The rules file is meta-metadata, that is information about information on information. In an embodiment where an object is characterized within an XML file. The rules file can be a XML Schema Definition (XSD) file. The use of rules files allows for the importation and exportation of BI objects that were designed independently of the core business enterprise system. The use of rules files allows for more flexible code that can be updated in part by supplying new rules.
Below is an example of a rule file for a metadata element defined as "Name". In this case the rule (a meta-metadata element) is expressed as XSD for a metadata element stored in XML.
<xs:element name="Name"> <xs:complexType> <xs:simpleContent> <xs:restriction base="StringProperty"> <xs:attribute name="nameID" type="xs:string" use="optional" fixed="SI_NAME"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleContent> </xs:complexType> </xs:element>
The rule includes tags specifying an element name, complex type, simpleContent, a restriction and an attribute name. Based upon this rules file, an export file for a name defining a statement of account may be expressed as <io:Name>Statement of Account</io:Name>.
Next, inheritance, dependency and hierarchy information associated with the BI object is characterized 202. The BI object dependencies are identified. This may be implemented using the inheritance, dependency and hierarchy information. Subsequently, the dependent BI object are retrieved 204. Each dependent BI object is parsed for additional dependent BI objects. If additional dependent objects are found, the dependency and hierarchy information associated with these BI objects are characterized.
Some BI objects require the presence of other objects in order to function. These dependencies may not be apparent to the end user who is exporting BI objects. The BI object export module 112 includes executable instructions to automatically identify and export information about objects on which the chosen object has a dependency. The dependencies are reconstructed when the set of objects are imported into the target system. This functionality ensures that the exported object preserves functionality when it is imported to a new system.
In one implementation, the BI object export module 112 includes executable instructions to identify any element in an object that references another object. For example, an object may form part of a dependency tree. In this case, the BI object export module 112 progresses through the dependency tree until all dependent objects are identified. For example, the BI object export module 112 may be configured to assume that elements of the following type are references to dependent objects: local identifiers and global identifiers. In this case, the objects with these identifiers will be exported. Preferably, the BI object export module 112 is programmable to specify an acceptable depth of analysis into a dependency tree. If a dependent object cannot be located within a system, the BI object export module 112 preferably notes an error upon import. Optionally, the BI object export module 112 is programmable to export only those BI objects needed for export. For example, the BI object export module 112 may time stamp a list of objects, but only export those objects that have been updated since the time stamp.
BI objects are organized into hierarchies. Hierarchies are another form of dependency. Hierarchies are important as they impact how the system interacts with the object, including: navigation through the set of objects, how security is applied to the object, how objects interact with and affect the behavior of other objects, and whether the object is displayed in certain user interface pages.
Security may also be considered a form of dependency. A user or user group has a set of rights on a BI object that controls what actions the user can take with that object. Preferably, the BI object export module 112 preserves these security settings when exporting the BI objects such that the reconstructed BI objects are secured in the same way for the same user in the imported system. For example, a file that has been modified will not be imported. A user's security settings are preserved on export and are reapplied on import.
After the BI object dependency operations of block 204 are performed, domain specific identifiers for the BI object may be mapped to global identifiers 206. This operation supports the porting of a BI object developed by a third-party. Domain specific identifiers provide a means for uniquely identifying BI objects. Some types of BI object identifiers provide unique identification within a single business enterprise system, while others provide unique identification globally across all business enterprise systems. The BI object export module 112 performs any required conversions on these identifiers, such that they are guaranteed to be unique where required, but also so the relationships and dependencies between the BI objects are preserved. In particular, domain specific identifiers are mapped to global identifiers. For example, object identifications may be unique within a single cluster, while cluster object identifications are unique across a set of clusters. Because object identifications are not valid in a new system, the BI object export module 112 may convert all object identifications to cluster object identifications. Upon import, the target system converts cluster object identifications to domain specific object identifications.
Next, associated files that are required for the export operation are identified and retrieved 208. Associated files include those files that characterize objects that a BI object relies upon to operate correctly. Thus, these files include files that characterized dependent objects or hierarchical objects that are required for proper operation, as discussed above. That is, previous processing operations identified objects related to a BI object that is to be exported. This operation identifies and/or creates files that characterize the related objects.
A composite export file is created 210. Optionally, the export file and any associated files are compressed. The export file and associated files may be combined into a single file prior to compression. Alternately, the export file and any associated files may be combined into a logical grouping of files after compression. Regardless of the technique used, combined files are referred to as a composite export file. The composite export file may be compressed via a lossless data compression scheme such as run length encoding, e.g., ZIP, LZW, or Huffman encoding. Optionally, the composite export file is encrypted. The export file and the associated files can be encrypted prior to the composite export file's creation, or the composite export file itself can be encrypted.
Finally, the composite export file is distributed 212. The composite export file may be distributed in any number of ways, including the downloading of the export file to the target system, sent by (secure) file transfer protocol, down or up loaded to a web resource, stored on a computer readable medium and physically transported, or the emailing of the export file to the target system. For example, the composite export file may be sent by the BI object export module 112 to the network connection circuit 108 for delivery to a specified network computer.
The object or objects defined by the composite export file are then reconstructed 302. Dependencies between the objects are then resolved 304. Finally, the object or objects are placed in the appropriate hierarchical location or locations within the target system 306, such as shown in
The invention can update objects in the target system as well as create new ones. If the object being imported already exists in the target system, then the BI object import module 114 will not replace the existing object, but will optionally update it based on the contents of the new object. The export file can be used to specify whether an update or over-write will occur or whether the object in the target system will take precedence.
An existing object may be merged with a new object. The merged object will contain all the properties from both the existing and the new object (i.e., no properties will be deleted), but the new object's properties will take precedence over the existing object's properties should any differences exist. For example, consider an existing object with properties "a, b, c". An object to be imported has properties "a′, x, y" (where a′ is a new version of property a). In this example, the merged object will have the properties a′, b, c, x, and y. This conversion process preserves all business intelligence meaning of the object or set of objects, including security, metadata values, inheritance, relationships, and dependencies.
The contents of the two regions are related. The first region 602 stores a plurality of BI objects. These objects contain the metadata on files stored in the second region 604. The BI objects have associations, dependencies, and hierarchies, e.g., the tree with objects A, B, C and D. The second region 604 stores a plurality of associated files characterized by each BI object in the first region 602. The associated files in the second region 604 are the data for the metadata in the objects in the first region. As shown, the associated files in the second region 604 have no record of their hierarchy, instead they rely on the BI objects in the first region 603. For example, the tree with objects A through D is paired with files A1 through D1, as shown by arrows 652 through 658. In some embodiments, the mapping between objects and files in the two regions is not one to one. For example, object G in region 602 has three files G1 through G3 in region 604, as shown with arrow 664. A file may also have many associated objects.
The types of files stored in the first region 604 include BI application, report, spread sheet, word processing, graphics, text document, data, and comma delimited files. The types of file stored in the second region 604 include application specific files and documents, e.g., BI application files. For example this can include files and documents specific to Business Objects Web Intelligence™, Crystal Reports™, Business Objects OLAP Intelligence™, Business Objects Web Intelligence™, Business Objects Desk Intelligence™, or Business Objects Enterprise™. Another type of file stored in the second region 604 includes program files, e.g., binary encoded computer instructions.
The processing operations of
The composite export file 620 is created by the importing/exporting engine 606. File 620 contains an export file 622 for the characterizing the BI objects for the associated files 624. The associated files in the composite export file 620 are being exported from, or imported to, region 604. The associated files may have their file names changed. For example, a file may be labeled "ID.NNN", where "ID" is the global identifier for the particular file and "NNN" is the number of the particular file, e.g., for the case where more than one file of a type are exported. A file may have more than one extension. Those skilled in the art will recognize a number of advantages associated with the invention. For example, the invention provides a technique for moving business objects, which does not require multiple systems to be simultaneously operative and communicative. Rather, the export entities of the invention can be created at one point in time and then be utilized at another point in time. If the export entity is already exported, the source entity need not even be operative when the export entity is utilized by the target system. The export entity of the invention easily traverses firewalls and other networked components. In addition, the identifier mapping techniques of the invention support the deployment and porting of third-party objects within a BI system.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - Alabama's gill net fishermen have declined by nearly 40 percent since a law was passed in 2008 that offered cash payouts to fishermen who give up their licenses.
State records reviewed by the Press-Register show 40 of the 139
gill net fishermen took the buyout the first year. Since then, 13 more fishermen have permanently lost their right to net fish. State officials say 86 people are eligible to purchase licenses for the coming year.
Alabama is the only Gulf Coast state that allows year-round gill net fishing with no limits on the amount of fish harvested. Use of the nets is controversial because it is impossible to control what swims into them.

Good landing spot after 24 hours of travel time. Convenient to airport.
Free shuttle not free.
Basic accommodation with no frills. Set off the main road so relatively quiet save the ongoing construction projects. No complaints but also nothing to rave about.

I bought this set for my husband for Father's Day. He is enjoying sharing the Karate Kid experience with our son. You can't go wrong with a DVD set like this! I would've rather had the original 3 movies without the "Next Karate Kid" included, but couldn't find a set like that. This was cheaper than purchasing them individually. It comes in a box set with slim cases.
Karate Kid & Karate Kid 2 were on separate discs but Karate Kide 3 & Next Karate Kid were on same disc. Should have 4 discs instead of 3.
That was what my grandson wanted.
moveis are great to watch
After purchasing the first Karate Kid in the $5 bargain bin at Walmart my husband and son were hooked. We of course saw this movie when we were young but my son is only 8. He just loved watching it, so I was on a mission to find Karate Kid II and III to complete the set. I was glad to finally find this box set on Walmart.com. It has been a great set of movies for the two of them to watch together. It's funny how a movie my husband loved at 8 years old can now be a movie our son can love as well. It's not my thing, but they have had a lot of fun.
I reccomend this product to everyone who loves the Karate Kid movies, martial arts flicks, the 80's, or who's just looking for a good movie. For $20 bucks you get all four of these spectacular movies. You couldn't RENT four movies for that (not to mention it's getting to be impossible finding these particular movies). It's the perfect deal and a great gift idea (they'll never suspect you paid so little!). 5 Stars across the board!
The Karate Kid DVD was very scratched up and unable to play the movie. I will be returning it as soon as I get a chance to go to Walmart. This was a birthday gift for my daughter, so it didn't turn out to be so good after all.
My grandson had seen part of the Karate Kid Part II and wondered what it was all about....especially since the new Karate Kid would be coming out soon. We have watched it several times...both I and II. We have yet to see III and IV as I only see him over the weekends. Brings back fond memories when my boys were young and we were watching together. Good "popcorn with the grandkids" movie!!
Wow-- watching the Karate Kid makes me want to take classes in Karate again. Ordering online was so simple. I had searched thru Walmart bins for this trilogy many times without success.
This movie is no short than a classic for all Martial Arts practitioners.It really shows you the fundamental reason why Martial Arts were created and the reason why it became a sport . It is a very good movie to watch even before considering joining the Martial Arts world and a reminder that Martial Arts is still a way of life.
I bought this collection as a gift for my 8 y.o. son who'd seen recently the remake with Jaden Smith. I told him about the original movies which peaked his interest. For the first week, he watched KKI repeatedly. This week, he is into KKII. I was pleased with the speed of delivery as we reside in Turkey.
If you want the Karate Kid Collection, this is the one. The only thing is there are 3 discs in total, I would rather prefer 4, with children around is easy to scratch the double side disc.
This collection was a hit for our "Family Movie Night". The kids loved it and the adults were glad to have the children get some valuable life lessons...Good always wins!
i love this spec edition dvd set of the karate kid films. i'd highly recommend it!! thnx joe
One of the top 2 trilogies of all time, right up there with Back to the future.
I love this collection, and it's reasonably priced. Definitely worth buying!!
The movie is great and the service from Walmart is great.
All four movies and cheaper than they are going on eBay
Very convenient to have all together in a box set.
It Is A great set

It was located next to a loud bar that played horribly loud music until 1am every night. The hotel and staff were fine, but the location was not good for a sleeping experience. I hate to give the hotel a bad review. I put the bad experience squarely on the shoulders of the bar across the way.

The inn is a little hard to locate, as it sits behind a bar and parking lot. But it fits right into the Fairfax vibe. A second floor sundeck, interesting 70's architecture (inside), and rustic furnishings complete the picture. Accommodating management, and located right smack in the middle of Fairfax, within walking distance to everything.

Why Doctors and Patients Need to Talk More About Money
CAROL CASSELLA: Anyone who has tried to decipher a recent hospital bill knows that the price of medical supplies can be irrationally disconnected from their actual value. The same sense of budgetary betrayal can be sparked by discovering the surgery, endoscopy or medication your well-meaning doctor recommends leaves you with an enormous out-of-pocket expense on your insurance bill, or that the charge is denied altogether. When your medical bill comes as a shock, it's reasonable to blame the person who seems most directly responsible: your doctor. But doctors are surprisingly unaware of the cost of the services they recommend, as starkly revealed when orthopedic surgeons were asked to estimate the cost of devices they routinely use, and only 20% came close. Cost obscurity between patients and physicians is not an easy problem to solve. Each insurance company, device maker, hospital, laboratory and imaging center can have a different negotiated contract with suppliers and payers, and the price paid is often protected. There may be no transparency, and the physician usually has little or no control.
Historically, the relationship between doctors and patients eschewed talk of money—good health was not treated as a negotiable transaction when we were paid in chickens. However, given that an estimated one third of Americans now live in families struggling to pay medical bills, doctors need to become more deeply engaged in how their medical advice impacts their patients' overall welfare. Our patients should not have to forego heat and nutrition to pay for what we prescribe if we can offer them a cheaper alternative.

Life After Thyroid Cancer
Can you give me some advice on getting on with life after someone has gone through thyroid cancer? I feel like I just don't fit into my life anymore. I am always worrying about my cancer coming back.
Michelle LeBeau, Thyroid Cancer Survivor and Founder of REACT Thyroid Foundation responds:
I have found the best way to get on with life after a thyroid cancer diagnosis is to try and get back to your normal routines and activities. As a thyroid cancer patient myself, I have tried to continue working, maintaining a social life, and doing the things I enjoy. As for your worry of it coming back, be diligent in maintaining appointments with your endocrinologist and continue to conduct self neck checks in between appointments.

I'm in a bit of a situation where I have an older printer that's quite good (it was very high end originally) and I also have a stockpile of toner for it. Obviously I'd like to keep using this. In the situation I'm in, some of the people on the network are using Macs with the latest version of OS X. The printer drivers don't work on the newest version of OS X, but the Windows drivers still work on Windows 8.
What I've got at the moment is the printer plugged into a Windows 8 computer with the ability to print things. What I'm looking for is any solution that allows a Mac to "print" to a program on the Windows 8 computer with a bunch of settings, and then that program re-prints it to the intended printer, copying the settings over. Almost like how we can print to PDF, however I want it to seem like any other printer on the network (copying PDFs over the network isn't practical in this situation.)
I'm wondering if there's anyway of easily doing this. At the moment I have a thing that monitors a directory for PDFs and prints them, but there's no easy way to send settings (e.g. number of copies) to the printer. I'm happy to pay for a commercial solution, especially if it makes it easier to set up.

MTI festival to celebrate cultural diversity
Published: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 5:32 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 5:32 p.m.
MANATEE COUNTY - More than 1,000 people are expected to celebrate cultural diversity Friday evening with food, music and dance at a festival put on by the Manatee Technical Institute and Farmworker Education and Services Program.
What: 13th Annual Multicultural Festival
When: Friday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Where: Manatee Technical Institute New Main campus at 6305 State Road 70 East, Bradenton, FL 34203.
Cost: Admission is free
More info: Go to manateetechnicalinstitute.org
The 13th Annual Multicultural Festival will take place at MTI's new main campus, where attendees will also get to tour the school's new 210,000-square-foot building and learn more about career opportunities.
The free festival runs from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
"The first festival happened in 1998 with the goal of celebrating the multicultural heritage of all our students," said Esperanza Gamboa, coordinator of the Farmworker Education Program. "All the proceeds from this event will benefit the emergency scholarship fund for the Farmworker Education Program."
The program provides service and support to help farmworkers and their families in their schooling.
Maria Cristina Cobos, 17, who is studying clinical administration, said the program has helped her to compete in the work environment.
"My parents are farmworkers and I was a high school student when I entered this program, and I cannot imagine my life without it," she said. "I want to be able to find a good job and go to the college."
Cristian Garcia, 19, whose parents are also farmworkers, changed the path of his life when he started this program last year.
"Before, I dropped out of school and I had no job. Without this program I would be on the wrong path," he said. "Now, I am trying to make my future better. I am studying to become a barber and I plan on opening my own barber shop."
The Multicultural Festival at MTI is a singular occasion to discover the Hispanic and South America culture and at the same time help students from the Farmworker Education Program.
"Every year, there is something new and different at the festival," Gamboa said. "This year, we have three live bands, a Brazilian performance and a fashion show that will add to the mix."

Bike officers have the same patrol responsibilities as other officers and also participate in campus and community education on bicycle safety.
The IUP Police bicycle patrol unit was formed in 1994.
IUP bike officers have also assisted other universities in starting a bike patrol program.
