First phase of roof project
Published: Wednesday, December 14, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 13, 2011 at 4:44 p.m.
We drove last weekend to the family farm in Natchitoches, on a mission to reroof the house my father built, over the last 50 years of his life.
Today, the wood-frame structure is close to 40-by-80 feet, but it started as a tiny two-room cottage built for the family who helped my father with farm and ranch work when his sons were too young to be of assistance.
The Ellzey family then lived in an older, larger house nearby, until we moved to far-northern Webster Parish, where my father taught school until his retirement brought him back to Robeline in Natchitoches Parish, where he undertook expanding the little house, the old home having fallen into severe disrepair.
The expansion included a porch in front and lean-to bedrooms in the back, just enough room for my parents and the younger children who remained at home. Over time, he turned the rear lean-to rooms into proper bedrooms to accommodate the married children for visits.
Still later came another expansion to the rear, doubling the size of the existing house. Another bedroom with bath, a sewing room for my mother, and a spacious family room with a wood heater at one end.
Other porches sprouted to the sides, with one roof connecting to the former chicken house which he had moved in to serve as a garage. It too, sprouted "porches." My grandmother, Lois Royston, said at that point, "Looks like Orvis won't stop until he has roofed over the entire first 40 acres."
Complicated: The shingled roofs my brother David and I are covering with new tin have multiple "valleys," gables and changing pitches, which we hope to simplify in recovering the roof. It took the two of us all of Friday and Saturday just to complete maybe a third of the overall job.
We're taking a long break, looking for another cool, dry weekend for the second of at least three project phases.
Buford? Saturday night, and very tired, we chose the fried chicken and seafood at Country Boy restaurant in Many, over inspecting the Christmas lights in Natchitoches. Country Boy has been a family favorite for many of the 30 years Joseph and Rita De Bose have run it.
Rita runs the cooking, Joe runs errands. Both were sitting at an adjacent table to ours.
The wall is covered with family pictures, cows, farm scenes and a well-fed donkey. That's Buford, Joe told us, and launched into a discussion of other family animals, including a stray dog which once adopted the restaurant and waited outside for handouts.
"I would give her chicken wings," Joe said, "and that dog would pick up one and stack it on top of another until she had three. Then she would pick up all three and take them across the road somewhere, stopping for traffic before she crossed."
Gift suggestions: Season tickets for Le Petit Theatre de Terrebonne make excellent gifts. They cost $40 per person this season, $50 next, but call right away if you intend to have them in time for Christmas. For information, call Gretchen at 879-2114 or the box office at 876-4278 to discuss arrangements.
Responding? Contact Bill Ellzey at 381-6256, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com or c/o The Courier, P.O. Box 2717, Houma, LA 70361.

Mythic Himalayan Creature Design by ExiledenWatch
Hello there on the last 2013 day and here is a little of inspiration to start a good new 2014 year - a creature inspired by Himalayan little known folklores and townfolks. Originally that was a sketch from my sketchbook, scanned it and I thought to do digital. But again I decided to do him in traditional media. Colored pencils a bit of copics and gouache paint.
I'd like to wish my friends, close people, fans and everybody else for a New Year which would be Year of LUCID DREAMING.
Life is like a dream. Everybody has own a dream in our every life. However, for the most of time, we are usually walking in sleep in dreams, without awarness. We let the dreamworld to control us and it's events. We feel like powerless matter drifting in the world of the antimatter and chaos. However, once we acquire lucid dreaming in our mind, we start becoming aware, don't let mindless dreamscapes to take us aimlessly through life, nightmares to haunt us and within, lucid dreaming, we are able to take our life onto a whole new level and make our life into heaven.
It's pretty much similar in real life. Lucid dreaming is the state of mind where we are becoming aware of things and ourselves.
Then next is bringing into action. The changes which we want to bring or DO SOMETHING what we care, instead to be a watcher, we need just to do. Become a sportsmen than viewer who is watching other people who are going to be successful.
And lastly, it's about habits. Those are known HABITS that block us from making our things to happen- where in the result we tend forgetting what we were supposed to do or giving up too quickly with things that we care/want to change, then we tend getting angry at ourselves for failing. Habits are codes written in our subconsciousness. To change it, we need to be stubborn, hardworking and have a lot of will to overcome our automated thinking.
Be aware. Bring things into action. Overcome your old habits.
With those skills, we are more likely able to bring these basic wishes of happiness, better health state and lots of success. This is what I want do, awake my lucid dreaming inner power
Every human is creating their own dream and reality, there is no such linear and "one" reality/truth. However, everything is bouncing back to them what they carry in their throughts, habits and beliefs. If you want to change your way of thinking, learn to think positivey, concetrate on good values and be constructive with bringing things into action, then life will automatically become better for you- you'll bring into yourself like a magnet more inspiring, good people and positive life events. That's what I wish for everyone and for myself :]
Oh also, I'm being active with stuff on my FB page, just thought to let know for some folks who have FB account! www.facebook.com/exileden
Great job
Wow that's so cool! Honestly I don't really know what exactly it means, I've had it written on paper from the traveler where he was traveling in Himalaya and meeting local people who passed that folklore. Also my apologies, perhaps my writing style didn't patch that text in your language correctly (I was swooshing in artistic style, than actual, proper way of writing to make it look more ancient and less readable). Either way, I find texts in Bengali'an alphabet are very pleasant for me.
It was about beast who protected the sacred mountain (I'll find it's name once I'll remember) in region of Annapurna mountain ranges. And in fact, in our real life, that sacred mountain does NOT allow climbers or travelers to traverse through. The villages which are surrounded with a view on that sacred mountain, villagers here somehow believe (I don't know if that's in serious way or in fantasy/for tradition) about the beast ruling in that mountain. I think it's like how humans used to believe about Yetis. If I understood correctly, I think that's local's interpretation about Yeti but in more serious/sacred way. It's said also that one, the sacred beast appears to have special design ornaments (like how I drew) were brought by the gods. That's all what I know.
Oh, that's so cool! Honestly, mainly I'm a traveler/photoreporter where I travel to many different countries, used to live in a couple and by that I'm passionate about the world, different culturies, languages, faraway places and local folks. The further from "civilized city worlds" (i.e. America, Europe) the better is! In meaning of fascination and inner-self discoveries being in new areas. I'm very anticipating to go to the East countries, including region which you are. I'm very flattered that a visitor, like you from Bangladesh has stopped here to view my works. Maybe for the next drawing, inspired by mountains of east where your language dominates, I should ask you to write a proper text and it's meaning for my design
And thank you!
There are a lot of wild things see, specially the Royal Bengal Tiger, one of the very rare and endangered species. I myself never had a chance to see them in real, except at Zoo. Plus there are lot more things you'd find interesting, our culture, history, tribal people and lot more. Pay a visit when you have time.
You know, I really envy you. It's my cherished dream to travel the whole world and capture every interesting thing I encounter. I wish I could do it. But I can't as I'm kinda trapped! Anyway, keep up the good work!
Check-out also my manips
This is design is really interesting, I like it a lot!
was it a baku beforehand and became something more?
and hoping for more collabs

USS CARL VINSON (NNS) -- To help prepare for damage control readiness, Damage Control Training Team (DCTT) members and other personnel assigned to the USS Carl Vinson participated in a realistic fire simulator at Farrier Firefighting School Nov. 6.
Sailors participated in two different classes, the Basic Shipboard Firefighting Course and the Advanced Shipboard Firefighting Course.
The Basic Shipboard Firefighting Course teaches students to enter and exit various compartments and to combat various classes of fires with the appropriate extinguishing agent while using a breathing apparatus. Personnel in the basic course also reviewed damage control organization, chemistry of firefighting and classification of alpha, bravo, and charlie fires.
Fire Controlman 1st Class Jacob McCawley says the course was an excellent opportunity for all parties involved.
"The Basic Shipboard Firefighting Course was a great refresher for experienced Sailors and a stepping stone for junior Sailors," said McCawley.
The Advanced Shipboard Firefighting Class was a four-day course designed for senior personnel. The course gives as realistic a scenario as possible. This course encompasses all things firefighting including main space firefighting, rapid plotting, symbology, and active de-smoking. When students leave the course students should have a clear understanding of the entire firefighting process. Students are taught to think outside the box and to work as a team.
Farrier Firefighting School's Field Safety Chief Damage Control 1st Class (SW/AW) Shawana Lowder said Sailors must always be prepared for all damage control emergencies.
"[Sailors] are [their] own rescue squad," said Lowder. "When [they're] underway [they] can't call anyone for help. [They] are the first and only line of defense."
Media department's leading petty officer, Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class (AW/SW) Tekeshia Affa said the toughest part was the mass conflagaration drill. During this drill, personnel are required to combat a variety of different fire casualties at the same time. She was the last 'man' standing from her hose team after the drill was over.
"The mass conflagaration drill has an extremely realistic feeling," said Affa. "Although you know it is a controlled fire, you still feel like you're fighting a real fire. You feel the heat. I just continued to fight until I ran out of air."
Carl Vinson will continue to send Sailors to Farrier Firefighting School to help prepare for their upcoming deployment around the horn of South America. Carl Vinson is undergoing a Post Shakedown Availability and Supplemental Restricted Availability at Northrop Grumman.

lo can't walk yet but with his birthday coming up, i want to find him a good pair of walking shoes (his first pair) but i know nothing about kid shoe sizes. i'm probably going to order them online because the only place near me that sells kid shoes is walmart and i'm not thrilled with the options i saw (we live in a VERY small town). the little soft shoes he wears now are size 6-12 month, but what size do they start at after that?
shoe sizes
Comments (8)
Our little one arrived on May 2, 2013!
I have a pair of size 4 converse shoes for LO and they are a little big but she is able to walk in them still. When I buy her a pair of shoes for summer, I will get size 4.
Oh, also, some places like dsw.com have a size print out that you can print & measure your LO's foot on. That will help when ordering online (like you, I live in a small town without many options so I always buy online).
I live in the Caribbean where everything is 5x more expensive than online, we purchase everything online!
You can also go to a kid's store and have the foot mesured. There is a store in St.Louis, MO called Laurie's shoes - not sure if it's a nation wide store, but they measured my girl's foot and gave us the correct size, which is 4
DD - born 5/27/13
It is better to measure, I thought my son was wearing a size 5 when I bought the cheaper shoes from walmart and when we finally bought some striderite walking shoes and we bought them from a local shoestore and actually had him sized, I was a whole size off! He needed size 6.. So yep it is much better to measure! And the striderite seem to make it easier for him to walk while I am holding his hand. He can't quite do it by himself unless he holds on just yet..

The pair are continuing a long-running association with new Potters boss Mark Hughes, who was named as successor to Tony Pulis in May.
Hughes told the club's official website: "They're the best at what they do in my opinion. That is why they have worked alongside me for so long.
"They are both outstanding coaches, while they also have a real understanding of the game and how I like things to be."
Bowen and Niedzwiecki have served under Hughes each time he has held a managerial post, working as part of the backroom staff for the Wales national team - who all three men featured for as players - and then Blackburn, Manchester City, Fulham and QPR before being reunited with the 49-year-old once again at Stoke.
Potters chief executive Tony Scholes said: "Mark Bowen and Eddie Niedzwiecki have been key members of Mark Hughes' backroom team for some time now and he was therefore eager to have them working with him once again here.
"They both have outstanding pedigree as coaches and we are delighted that they have now agreed to join Mark's new team."

Dus (Hindi: दस, translation: Ten) is an unfinished Bollywood action film directed by Mukul S. Anand which was in production in 1997. The director died halfway through filming, leaving the film incomplete. The film starred Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan, Raveena Tandon and Shilpa Shetty in leading roles, with Vinod Khanna and Rahul Dev in supporting roles.[1] Actress Raveena Tandon was playing her first negative role in this film. Model Rahul Dev was to make his film debut with this film.
The storyline was intended to have been about terrorism and how an anti-terrorist intelligence officer Captain Raja Sethi (Sanjay Dutt) who is part of a secret organisation known as Force 10 is sent on a mission to find an Afghan terrorist named Nasheman (Raveena Tandon). After he is captured and tortured by Nasheman and her right-hand man Mast Gul (Rahul Dev), his partner Captain Jeet Sharma (Salman Khan) is sent to rescue him. However, by now, Raja Sethi is brainwashed by Mast Gul in believing his country and his friends has abandoned him and he too turns to terrorism. Shilpa Shetty played Salman's love interest and Vinod Khanna played a General.
- Sanjay Dutt as Captain Raja Sethi
- Salman Khan as Captain Jeet Sharma

Production and abandonment[edit]
The shooting of the film began in Utah in May 1997 and continued until the end of August. The scenes in Utah were to have depicted scenes of Kashmir which was the major setting for the film. This was the debut film of Rahul Dev who played Mast Gul. Gul was based a real-life Pakistani militant leader, who used the alias name Mast Gul.[2]
Around 40% of the film's shooting had been completed when Mukul S. Anand suddenly died on 7 September 1997[3] The film was subsequently shelved and was never completed or released. The song promos of the film are still available to view. Several years after the film was shelved, Mukul Anand's brother Rahul announced he would revive the incomplete film but this never materialised.[4]

What follows here is my summary and interpretation of a NYT column by Nicholas Kristof.
In many ways, our armed forces live by an astonishingly liberal ethos -- and it works. Our military helped lead the way in racial desegregation, and even today does more to provide equal opportunity to working-class families -- especially to blacks -- than any social program. It has been an escalator of social mobility in American society because it invests in soldiers and gives them skills and opportunities.
In a way that America does not, the United States armed forces knits together whites, blacks, Asians and Hispanics from diverse backgrounds, invests in their education and training, provides them with excellent health care and child care. And it does all this with minimal income gaps: A senior general earns just 10 times what a private makes, while CEOs at major companies earn more than 300 times as much as those cleaning their offices. So let's not pretend otherwise: the military ethos leans way to the left.
"It's the purest application of socialism there is," Wesley Clark, the retired four-star general and former supreme allied commander of NATO forces in Europe, has stated.
"It's a really fair system, and a lot of thought has been put into it, and people respond to it really well," he added. The country can learn from that sense of mission, he said, from that emphasis on long-term strategic thinking.
The military nurtures camaraderie in part because the military looks after its employees. It features a rare enclave of single-payer universal health care, and it follows that up with a veterans' health care system that is socialist in every sense of the word -- a system that has much lower costs, per patient served, than the American system as a whole. And patient satisfaction with the service they get is much better than it is among health care recipients as a whole.
Perhaps the most impressive achievement of the American military is not its aircraft carriers, stunning as they are. Rather, it's the military day care system for working parents.
While one of America's greatest failings is underinvestment in early childhood education (which seems to be one of the best ways to break cycles of poverty and keep it from replicating one generation after the next), the military manages to provide superb child care. The cost depends on family income and starts at a very affordable $44 per week.
"I absolutely think it's a model," (to be followed) said Linda K. Smith, executive director of the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies, which advocates for better child care in America. Ms. Smith, who used to oversee the military day care system before she retired from the Defense Department, said that our military understands that good child care is a strategic necessity to maintain military readiness and to retain highly trained officers.
One of the most admirable things about the military is the way it invests in educating and training its people. Its tuition-free universities -- the military academies -- are excellent, and it has ROTC programs at other campuses around the country that are superb. Many soldiers get medical training, law degrees, or Ph.D.s while in service, sometimes at the country's finest universities. It's common to hear bromides about investing in human capital, but the military actually shows that it believes in this kind of investment.
Partly as a result, it manages to retain first-rate officers who could earn far higher salaries in the private sector. And while the ethic of business is often "Gimme," our socialist military inculcates an ideal of public service that runs deep. In Afghanistan, for example, soldiers sometimes dig into their own pockets to help provide supplies for local schools.
As America gropes for new directions in a difficult economic environment, the tendency has been to move toward a corporatist model that sees investments in people as woolly-minded sentimentalism or as unaffordable luxuries. But our US military shows us otherwise.
So, as the United States armed forces try to pull Iraqi and Afghan societies into the 21st century, maybe they could do the same for America.

Hi Frederick
We're running WP 3.0 with a dev build of W3TC from yesterday (7th July). We're having problems, which are possibly to do with our server configuration. I had a dig, and one part of W3TC that isn't working is the w3_get_home_root() function, as used in w3_is_permalink_rules().
We're just getting a $path of '/.htaccess' i.e. it's looking in the wrong place. Our absolute path looks like /home/d/o/domain.com/public_html/ (server is using apache's virtualdocumentroot). Any ideas?

Tragic Dream - Poem by Electric Lady
I'm just a tragic girl living in a tragic world
I'm lost in a fairy tale with no happy ending
So I close my eyes and try to imagine one
As my mind drifts off to another place, behold
I look so pretty with no makeup on my face
But my heart breaks every time I look at you
It seems as if the world is falling apart
Inside my very soul
These lies you turn into lullabies
Are more attractive than your actual charms
I can't keep guessing with you
There's not enough hours in the day
Though my spirit follows your every move
Love is a crazy cycle of events
The tide is too expensive
And my life is on the line
I hate the way you make me feel
It's like I'm living on a prayer
You strip me naked and I am bare
This ring on my finger is sacred
If I take it off
I'll end up losing my self-worth, alas
You hold me tight with all your might
Promise me I won't slip away this time
Promise me this tragic dream will end soon
Tears are like fireworks
As they explode
The crowd gets excited
And we are a crowd, me and you
I imagine this to be a happy ending.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- There's no doubt Georgia coach Mark Richt has a more relaxed team than Florida this week.
It's not surprising given what has happened in Gainesville. But it's noticeably different from years past, when the Bulldogs have been admittedly uptight leading into the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party -- a longtime rivalry that has been mostly one-sided in recent years.
The Gators (4-3, 2-3 Southeastern Conference) have won six in a row and 13 of the last 14 in the series, a trend the 10th-ranked Bulldogs (6-1, 4-1) hope to reverse Saturday at Alltel Stadium. Richt believes less tension could be the key.
"We've got to get them to stay loose and have a little fun," he said. "That's really all we can do."
So far, so good.
Linebacker Arnold Harris joked about getting some help from former Lakers coach Phil Jackson, well-known for his offbeat coaching style and motivational ploys that include practicing Zen philosophy and urging players to meditate.
Fullback Jeremy Thomas gave this response when told Georgia fans might want to jump off a bridge if Florida wins again: "I know. We better get the Coast Guard ready."
The Bulldogs have said all the right things, but will it carry over onto the field?
In reality, the Gators should be in a better position because they feel like they have something to prove and nothing to lose.
Although Florida hasn't been mathematically eliminated from the SEC East race, its chances of winning the division are so slim that the topic hasn't even been broached in weeks.
Still, there has been plenty to talk about.
Zook was fired Monday, two days after a 38-31 loss at Mississippi State. It was the latest and maybe most significant in a long list of embarrassments during his two-plus seasons.
He will coach the remaining four games, charged with helping the players overcome a major distraction and getting to a bowl game.
It won't be easy.
Few programs have responded well to their coach getting fired in the middle of the season and staying on for the rest of the season.
The Gators certainly didn't react well to the news. Some walked out of a hostile team meeting with athletic director Jeremy Foley. Others threatened to transfer, even with Steve Spurrier considered the leading candidate to replace Zook.
A few even openly trashed Spurrier for the way he left the program in 2001, when he phoned in his resignation from an oceanfront condo.
"It's going to be really hard for the next guy, no matter who it is, to get the same love as coach Zook," linebacker Travis Harris said.
Players and coaches in this rivalry have changed plenty over the last 14 years, but the results have stayed fairly consistent.
Whether it was Ray Goff, Jim Donnan or Richt walking Georgia's sideline, and either Spurrier or Zook on the opposite side, the final outcome has usually gone in favor of the Gators.
Richt acknowledged that Florida may have a psychological advantage in the series. The results even prompted him to change hotels and hold less intense practices this week.
"I don't believe I'm going to have to do something to get them jacked up and ready to play," Richt said. "I think they're going to be very emotionally charged, ready to go. I think the biggest job's going to be to make sure they don't get so emotional that they forget to do the things that help them win."

Has any pitcher in a competitive Major League Baseball game ever struck out nine consecutive batters (in other words, the whole side)? Has anyone ever done this from first pitch, striking out the whole side in three innings?
Five pitchers have done it. This ESPN article from April 14, 2012 lists the following three occurrences:
Then on September 27, 2012, Doug Fister of the Detroit Tigers struck out 9 straight Kansas City Royals batters. (link)
Then on October 3, 2015, Max Scherzer of the Washington Nationals struck out 9 straight New York Mets while throwing a no-hitter. (link)
Aaron Harang's nine straight strikeouts on April 13, 2012 came in the first 3 innings, after he gave up a single to the leadoff batter in the first inning. (link)

Five modular buildings planned for Houma schools
Published: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 at 10:49 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 at 12:08 p.m.
HOUMA -- Five new modular classrooms will be added to local public-school campuses, thanks to a Tuesday night School Board meeting.
Acadian, Bourg, East Houma, Honduras and Schriever elementary schools will each receive an eight-classroom modular building by spring. The latter two were added to the list after board member Rickie Pitre made a motion to include them.
"We have the money," Pitre said. "We dont need to keep putting that off. Were going to significantly address the overcrowding situation."
Some board members wanted to delay adding Schriever and Honduras to the list until after a committee studied the recommendation. The measure adding the buildings at all five campuses passed in a 5-4 vote.
Heres how the vote went:
For: Pitre, Roosevelt Thomas, Greg Harding, Hayes Badeaux and Clark Bonvillain.
Against: Richard Jackson, L.P. Bordelon, Roger DeHart and Don Duplantis.
"Im not averse to the idea, but can we send this back to committee for further review?" asked Duplantis before voting against the motion.
"It may come down that we need more modifications to the buildings," said Bordelon, adding that some of the modular buildings might need more than the usual eight classrooms schools have gained from them to date.
The board estimates costs for the modular classrooms at Acadian, Bourg and East Houma to run about $2.3 million, including construction costs.
With a project cost of about $386,846 per building, the two addition buildings will increase the projects cost by at least $773,692.
Thomas, who represents schools where many of the modular classrooms will be installed, was originally opposed to building the classrooms.
During an Oct. 8 Buildings, Food Service and Transportation Committee meeting in which the committee discussed adding the modular classrooms, Thomas expressed concern over needlessly adding classrooms on campuses where overcrowding was not an issue.
But at Tuesdays meeting he seemed resigned to the idea, explaining that he approves of the direction the administration is going and would vote in favor of the recommendation.
Pitre said the modular classrooms would make room at overcrowded schools, while also helping Acadian Elementary eliminate some of its portables.
Mulberry Elementary was the first Terrebonne school to get a modular classroom and is the only one to date with a completed one.
Crews will start work on a modular building at Coteau-Bayou Blue Elementary Schools soon, Pitre said.
Once the five buildings approved Tuesday are completed, Pitre said some extensive reorganizing of students could be done to further ease overcrowding at the schools. He envisions moving seventh-graders from Evergreen Junior High back to Caldwell Middle and fourth-graders from Caldwell to Schriever.
"You can take care of about four different issues on student overcrowding," he said. "I see that as an ideal situation."

Posted on 11th June 2014
Greetings in the name of Jesus, the eternal Rock.
Iraqi Christians have requested urgent prayer as the situation in Mosul and surrounding areas deteriorates.
Islamist militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and ash-Sham (ISIS), an al-Qaeda off-shoot group, began their violent take-over on Friday 6th June. ISIS now has full control of Mosul, Iraq's second city. The International Organisation for Migration estimated on Wednesday 11th that half a million residents had fled from the violence, many attempting to find refuge in the nearby Kurdish provinces of Northern Iraq.
Hundreds of Christian families are amongst those fleeing the area, and at least one Assyrian church in Mosul has been burned down in the recent violence. Christians feel particularly vulnerable, especially in light of the treatment of Christians in the Raqqah province of northern Syria where ISIS has also established its authority. Recall that, in February 2014, ISIS commanders in Raqqah forced Christian community leaders to sign a contract agreeing to a set of stringent conditions. These included the payment of a special tax (known as jizya), conduct of Christian rites only behind closed doors so as to be neither visible nor audible to Muslims, and adherence to Islamic commercial, dress code and dietary regulations.
Mosul and the surrounding Nineveh plain is the traditional heartland of Iraq's Christian communities. Many Christians fled to this region when forced to leave Baghdad and other areas in recent years. Christians are alarmed at the ISIS take-over of Mosul, fearful that this will further accelerate the decline of the Christian presence in Iraq.
Iraqi Christians urge us to pray, asking that:
a. The Christians of Mosul will know the close presence of Jesus, the guidance of the Spirit and the protection of the Father
b. Those who have chosen to remain in the city would not be subjected to violent or unjust treatment
c. Humanitarian assistance would reach all who are in need, whether having been displaced or remaining in Mosul
d. Christians throughout Iraq will know the peace and presence of Jesus each day, and will remain faithful to him and clear in their testimony
e. The Iraqi authorities will act decisively to improve security for all citizens of Iraq.
f. Those who are perpetuating the conflict would know the Spirit's conviction of sin and come to understand the depths of Jesus' forgiveness.

Identification of the presence or absence of a patent ductus arteriosus has created a significant challenge for those who treat premature infants. This challenge is one that has been met by the development of technology. Historically, it was established that an enlarged left atrium in a premature infant was associated with a significant left-to-right shunt from a patent ductus arteriosus. Since left atrial size bore a general relationship to aortic size, a ratio of the two was developed for assessment of shunt magnitude.1 Unfortunately, alterations of left atrial size or the ratio of the two could occur in infants with hypovolemia, congestive cardiac failure, and a host of other conditions. In 1977, a contrast injection technique was reported that provided positive identification of a ductal left-to-right shunt.2 This technique, which was specific for ductus arteriosus, required injection through a catheter placed into the thoracic aorta, usually via an

To the Editor:—
The ratio of hydrocortisone to dexamethasone and betamethasone quoted by Dr. Max Michael (JAMA185:280 [July 27] 1963) has not been confirmed by others. In the administration of adrenal corticosteroids to patients with asthma, we have found that one tablet of 0.6 mg of betamethasone is equal in antiasthmatic potency to approximately 10 mg of prednisone, or 60 mg of cortisone acetate. The mean daily doses of the three compounds producing a similar clinical response in our experience have been 1 mg of betamethasone, 17 mg of prednisone, and 106 mg of cortisone acetate (Amer J Dis Child105:127 [Feb] 1963; Amer J Dis Child106: 388 [Oct] 1963).

Quilting, Sewing and More!
Coin Quilt Pattern via Moda Bake Shop
Inspiration on Flickr
Information on Squaring up your Fabrics via the Purl Bee (I needed a good tutorial on this)
I used fabrics from Heather Bailey's Freshcut Line (which I always loved but never used), some Amy Butler favs, some corduroy and some other fun pieces thrown in.
The cutting took me all morning and then I started to lay out the 5 patchwork lines for the quilt. Then, the sewing began. I finished up all the 'lines' this morning at 9:30 a.m. Super fast for me! So, now I am cutting the sashing for the middle and the border and will get it all sewn together.
I hope that she will love this quilt. I was going to do something much more simpler and 'rougher', but in the end, I want it to be something she can really have forever...possibly pass on to her own little girl someday.
On a side note, my projects are up at Studio Calico using the February Kit. You can check them out here. There is also a fun challenge on their blog this week using one of my layouts as the sketch - check it out and play along!
I'm off to watch LOST! So excited that it is back...so sad that it's the last season. Bachelor...anyone watching? I always call it from the first night (or at least to the last 2 standing) and I totally think Tenley is awesome! We'll see! :) Have a great night!

To support the group decision-making in emergency response, it is important to research on how to reach consensus quickly and reliably in the procedure of group decision-making. This paper proposes a new planning method to improve the efficiency of group decision-making based on Markov chain model and uses a real case example of New Orleans Hurricane Katrina to illustrate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed approach. The approach is quicker than conventional process in terms of two points. (1) It minimizes the human interventions and makes the most of computer system support to speed up the interactions between the decision-maker and the system.

This is a fantastic recipe. Absolutely delicious. I only had smaller chops on hand, so I sauteed them in the A-1 and smothered them with the pepperoni, peppers and onions rather than stuffing them. Then I baked them in the oven for a bit with the cheese on top. It was absolutely wonderful and everyone loved it. Thanks for the great recipe.
again, thanks lali, just like mom makes. very impressive
I read the reviews on this and decided that this looks really yummy!!! NOT! This is one of the worst recipes I have tried. The pork chops were dried out the A-1 sauce was burnt on the bottom of the pan...couldn't taste the pepperoni or the banana peppers and you didn't give a temp. or a time??? Luckly for the other reviews I cookd it for 45 mins. at 375 deg. and YUCK!!!
Let me start out by saying I have wanted to try this recipe Forever!!!I printed this recipe to try about six months ago and just now got around to making it. Five stars all the way!!! This recipe has all my dh's favorites and he raved about this recipe!!!We both loved it!!! I sauteed the onions and pepperoni and peppers on the stove top then put the porkchops in a casserole dish covered with A-1 and poured pepper mixture over top cooked in the oven on 375 for 45 minutes. Perfect!!!
Five stars for this delicious recipe! I did not have banana peppers but did not "miss" them. I used green onions chopped fine. My son suggested that next time I should keep the sliced pepperoni in one piece, folded in half, stuff it with shredded Monterey Jack, the scullions and the A-1 Sauce, keeping the closed end of the pepperoni toward the outside of the chop. I use very thick chops, so this may work. We're having it tonight. Very tasty, Bravo, Lali!
This was very good. I didn't have the peppers so all I did was make a pocket in the boneless chops and stuff them with onions pepperoni and cheese. I didn't cook the onion first but it cooked up quite nicely. I also didn't have A-1 sauce so I used some jarred marinara sauce over the top and baked them on 375F for about an hour. I will be making this again many times.

Senseless Devastation
.......The butchery of war horrified Wilfred Owen. His comrades in arms represented the best hope for a better future, but all around him that hope was vanishing in the fire and smoke of the battlefield. The war also devastated the loved ones at home, robbing them of sons, daughters, brothers, and fathers and leaving only emptiness behind.
Loss of Identity
.......In war, young men with distinct personalities and unique talents become nameless pawns to do the bidding of the political decision-makers. When they fall on the battlefield, no one stops to mourn them or pay them homage. The bombs keep falling. The guns keep firing.

Himalayan Fungus Boosts Mitsubishi Tanabe Revenue
Tetsuro Fujita's eureka moment about a Himalayan fungus in 1985 may mean part of a $5 billion payout for Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corp. a quarter-century later.
While the scientist drove over a bridge between Japan's Shikoku and Honshu islands on his way to take up a research post for traditional herbal remedies, Fujita realized the fungus, used in a Chinese medicinal soup, must be suppressing the immune system of the insects on which it grew.
His research at Kyoto University not only helped yield Gilenya, a new treatment for multiple sclerosis -- the debilitating condition afflicting more than 2 million people worldwide -- it also promises to bring Mitsubishi Tanabe its biggest money earner. Annual sales of the pill, the first for the autoimmune disease, may exceed $5 billion, UBS AG said.
"Little did I think that it would be a treatment for multiple sclerosis," Fujita, 80, said in an in interview Kyoto. "I was more interested in immune suppression for organ transplants. I knew nothing about the disease back then."
Novartis AG, based in Basel, Switzerland, began selling Gilenya in the U.S. in October. Projected sales of the medicine would rank it among the 10 best-selling drugs worldwide, based on data from IMS Health Inc., a Norwalk, Connecticut-based research company.
Mitsubishi Tanabe will probably book royalties equivalent to 10 percent of sales, based on the median of four analyst estimates in a Bloomberg News survey.
Better Than Expected
Kazuko Hamada, a spokeswoman for Mitsubishi Tanabe, declined to comment on the royalty payments that the Osaka, Japan-based drugmaker will receive. Novartis spokesman Eric Althoff also declined to comment on the royalties.
Gilenya's fourth-quarter sales of $13 million were above expectations, Dhavalkumar Patel, who heads Novartis's autoimmune research, said last week.
"Novartis says 2,000 people are already using the drug in three months," Kenji Masuzoe, an analyst at Deutsche Bank AG in Tokyo, said by telephone on Jan. 28. "That's great progress as I've been expecting 10,000 people by the end of this year, which will mean sales of about $350 million."
Multiple sclerosis causes the immune system to attack the myelin sheath, which surrounds and protects nerve cells, leading to symptoms including numbness, difficulty in coordination and memory loss, according to Medline Plus, a website of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. In its severest form, it can shorten life and, in rare cases, lead to death, according to the U.S. National Multiple Sclerosis Society's website.
Worst Performance
Mitsubishi Tanabe rose 2.1 percent to 1,369 yen at the 3 p.m. close of Tokyo trading. The stock gained 18 percent last year, outperforming Japan's benchmark Topix index, which fell 1 percent.
Sales at the Japanese company declined 2.4 percent in the 12 months ended March 2010, the worst performance in five years, to 404.7 billion yen ($5 billion), according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Annual sales of Gilenya may peak at $5.3 billion in 2018, Fabian Wenner, an analyst at UBS in Zurich, said Feb. 1.
Gilenya is approved for the relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis, the most common type, and competes with injected drugs on the market including Biogen Idec Inc.'s Avonex and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.'s Copaxone.
Superior Drug
The Novartis drug cut relapses by more than half compared with Avonex, an injected therapy from U.S. drugmaker Biogen Idec Inc., according to a patient study published in the New England Journal of Medicine last year.
Gilenya gained the support of a European medical committee in January, and a European Commission decision on approval may come in about three months. It's also being reviewed by regulators in Japan.
In the U.S., the drug is priced at $4,000 for a monthly prescription. That's 66 percent more than the $2,414.99 for a pre-filled syringe of 30 micrograms per milliliter of Avonex, a month's supply, according to PharmacyChecker.com. Analysts including UBS's Wenner expect Gilenya to be cheaper in Europe.
Current medicines require patients to inject themselves every other day or once a week, Kyoko Nakata, the Tokyo-based chairman of Japan's MS Cabin, a support group for the condition, said in an e-mail.
"They are shots, so during the course of treatment, they are a constant reminder to patients of their condition," said Nakata, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1993 and has been taking Bayer AG's Betaferon since 2000. "Gilenya would make it easier to treat the disease as it saves time and brings patients closer to having a normal life."
Larva Invader
With the help of another researcher, Fujita partnered with Yoshitomi Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and Taito Co., now respectively part of Mitsubishi Tanabe and Mitsui Sugar Co. The scientists began studying in 1986 the Cordyceps fungus known in Chinese and Japanese as "winter insect, summer plant," so called because it invades insect larva during winter and grows out of the host by summer.
Fujita said he was inspired by the discovery of ciclosporin, also derived from a fungus, which spurred research into how the immune system may be subdued in transplant patients. Fujita, now a professor emeritus at Kyoto University, said he was unaware the immune-modulating properties of Cordyceps could eventually help multiple sclerosis patients.
"I knew from reading the Chinese medicinal encyclopedia that the fungus feeds off the larva, lives in a symbiotic relationship for a year, and comes out of the ground in summer by growing out of the carcass," he said. "That made me think the fungus must be suppressing the larva's immune response."
Centuries-Old Remedy
Used as an herbal remedy for centuries, the fungus contains an insoluble, toxic compound called myriocin, said Kenji Chiba, who worked on the project at Yoshitomi. It took scientists at least three more years before they could modify the compound into a usable form, creating fingolimod, or Gilenya.
Novartis licensed the overseas rights to fingolimod from Mitsubishi Tanabe in 1997.
"Although it took a quarter of a century, I'm happy it's become a drug while I'm still alive," Fujita said. "It makes me happy that something I did is making others happy."

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2016 Porsche Boxster
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 8.4
Though the term consistently echoes throughout the enthusiast networks, the definition of a "driver's car" varies from person to person. We believe a true driver's car should demand driver involvement, transmit the visceral thrill of performance motoring, and most importantly, provide infinite levels of fun. The 2012 Porsche Boxster wholly embodies these elements on account of its lightweight underpinnings, mid-engine layout, rear-wheel-drive platform and signature open-air cockpit. While rivals such as the BMW Z4, Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class and the Audi TT Roadster offer a higher degree of luxury and comfort, only the Porsche Boxster and its high-performance Boxster S, Spyder and Black Edition variants deliver the unadulterated driving pleasure that emphasizes the true meaning of what it takes to be a driver's car in today's automotive setting.
If you've been yearning for a mid-engine roadster, but your budget begs to differ, the 2012 Porsche Boxster might be right up your alley. And as the least expensive car in Porsche's stable, Porsche admirers looking for the most affordable avenue into the brand will appreciate the Boxster's reasonable starting price.
If the Boxster's engineering formula is everything you desire in a sports car sans the drop-top roof, the marginally more expensive Porsche Cayman is the right car for you.
With an all-new 2013 model on the horizon, the Porsche Boxster receives minimal changes for the 2012 model year.
Typical of its inherent Porsche DNA, any Boxster model, from the base version to the lighter, more hardcore Spyder, delivers a typically sporting driving experience. Feedback through the steering wheel...
... and chassis are about as good as it gets, and the seating position is excellent. Controls are deliberate and easily manageable, with the driver support systems like stability management and the available active suspension system providing minimally invasive corrections, but always there to assist should you overestimate your own driving talent. The brakes, too, are simply incredible across the range, and particularly so on the Boxster S and Boxster Spyder. The lightweight Spyder offers the most visceral and emotional Porsche driving experience this side of a 911 GT3, which costs nearly twice as much. Best of all, while they are undoubtedly sporting, the various Boxster variants offer perhaps the purest driving experience available in a new car today.
The available PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission is comprised of two separate manual gearboxes and clutches. With odd-numbered gears housed in one assembly and even-numbered gears in the other, Porsche's PDK transmission anticipates the next gear change based on driver input for virtually seamless acceleration.
Conventional wet sump oil systems shift oil to one side of the engine during constant high-g maneuvers, hindering the oil pump's ability to sufficiently lubricate vital engine components. The Boxster's dry sump system utilizes a pressurized oil reservoir and a series of pumps that cycle oil to and from the engine for consistent lubrication regardless of extreme gravitational forces.
The Boxster's driver-focused cabin boasts a pair of heavily bolstered bucket seats along with a host of race-inspired instruments. The assortment of audio and climate controls feel unintuitive at first, but prolonged operation ultimately stimulates a muscle-memory response. Wind control is kept under wraps with the top-down, although top-up wind noise at highway speeds can drown out a conversation or music from the standard audio system. For this reason, we recommend the high-output, 10-speaker Bose premium sound system. Cargo space is surprisingly generous thanks to the Boxster's mid-engine design, which permits enough room for a trunk under the hood and behind the engine.
From its Carrera GT-like headlights to its timeless silhouette, the 2012 Boxster organically mixes contemporary roadster design with classic Porsche DNA. Dual center-mounted exhaust outlets and red-painted brake calipers help distinguish the Boxster S model from the standard version, while the Boxster Spyder's prominent rear deck fairings, revised taillights and distinctive beltline graphics produce a truly unique appearance. As is typical for Porsche, the 2012 Boxster offers a variety of standard and available wheel choices. The base model rides on 17-inch wheels, whereas stepping up to the Boxster S lands you a set of larger 18-inch alloys. Both the Spyder and Black Edition models receive a unique 19-inch split-spoke wheel design, with the Black Edition showcasing a – you guessed it – black paint finish.
The 2012 Porsche Boxster comes with a 255-horsepower flat-6 engine, with the Boxster S, Boxster Spyder, and Boxster S Black Edition featuring an uprated 310-horsepower 3.4-liter engine (320 horsepower for the Boxster Spyder and Boxster S Black Edition). Non-Spyder models are equipped with a power canvas top and heated glass rear window, while the Boxster Spyder receives a small, manually-deployable soft top. Safety equipment includes six airbags with head-protection airbags housed within the doorsills along with roll hoops above the headrests for supplemental rollover protection.
Individual options for the 2012 Boxster and Boxster S include Porsche's dual-mode Active Suspension Management, which automatically adjusts the damping force to each wheel based on current road conditions and driving style, rear parking sensors (which we highly recommend due to the sizable blind spot created by the soft top), and a mechanical limited-slip differential. All models offer Porsche's renowned 7-speed PDK automatic transmission with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. If track days and extensive canyon runs are your cup of tea, the Boxster S and Boxster Spyder can be outfitted with pricey, but extraordinarily versatile ceramic composite brakes.
The 2012 Porsche Boxster's standard powerplant is a horizontally-opposed 2.9-liter engine that puts out 255-horsepower. The Boxster S sports a 310-horsepower 3.4-liter flat-6, while a modest retune ups the horsepower to 320 for the Boxster Spyder and Black Edition. All models are available with either a standard 6-speed manual transmission or the optional 7-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic.

Wanted a reliable soft top roadster, looked at S2000 Hondas, Z4s but chose a Porsche. Has kept its value twice better than other German cars owned. Great performance and handling unbeatable and is 95% of the performance of an average 911, with wind and exhaust soundtrack, at 1/3 of the price. Mid engined so great trunk space fore and aft."

"It looks beautiful even after 9 yrs. only drive spring to fall . The engine sound is like music. So fast! Would like more bells and whistles. No NAV, OR BLUE TOOTH, but the Manual transmission keeps my attention on the road. I plan to keep it forever many more years to come."
