"Surprise weekend to Stockholm" Stockholm by sue_stone
Stockholm Travel Guide: 4,083 reviews and 9,459 photos
I was a very spoilt girl this birthday - Alex took me on a surprise weekend to Stockholm, Sweden! I had no idea where we were going until we were at the airport having some lunch before our flight (I even managed to get through check-in without knowing the destination).
We took the day off work on Friday(which was a treat in itself!) as the flight was at 2:15pm. A short 2 hour flight later we arrived in Stockholm. We jumped on the Arlanda Express train from the airport, and 20 minutes later we were in the heart of the city. The sun was still shining, the sky was blue, and better still, our hotel was 50 metres from where the train pulled up!!
We stayed at the Nordic Light Hotel, one of the top 'Design Hotels' in Stockholm, which makes use of light as its method of decoration. It was an excellent hotel - very stylish, we loved it!
After checking in and freshening up, we headed to a nearby restaurant for dinner - it was Belgian cuisine, tasty and always great with a nice Belgian beer. After dinner we headed to a very special bar that was located at our hotel's sister hotel (Nordic Sea). It was the world's first permanent icebar, Absolut Icebar. The interior is kept at around -5�C all year round. The walls, bar and glasses are all made of ice, taken from a river in northern Sweden. It was a great experience! They give you a large furry coat with hood to wear and gloves - which you definitely need when you hold your ice-glass! It is not a large bar - takes a maximum of 30 people at one time but was a great experience. It is pretty cold in there though, so most people, including us, only stay for 1 drink. To warm up we retired to the bar at our hotel for another vodka.
Saturday morning called for a sleep-in and then a visit to the hotel's breakfast buffet. We spent the day strolling around the old town area doing a small amount of site seeing and window shopping, really enjoying the beautiful sunny day and taking photos. We also visited some shopping malls and a fancy department store in the city. That night we headed back to the old town area and enjoyed a traditional meal of Reindeer in Loganberry sauce...and a bottle of Australian red wine ; )
Sunday dawned grey and a further sleep-in was in order. We had a pretty lazy start to the day, enjoying every minute of our stay in the funky hotel. Venturing out, we wandered through the city, visited the Kulturhuset and had a walk by the water. A late lunch was then on the agenda so we headed to another stylish hotel, Berns Hotel, and had a delicious lunch on the terrace over looking a pretty park. After lunch it was time to make our way back to the airport.
We really had an excellent weekend. It was very relaxing and great to be away for a change without the usual long itinerary of sites to visit. Beautiful city, amazing hotel and the BEST company a girl could ask for!!
- Pros:Beautiful in summer
- Cons:Expensive
- In a nutshell:Perfect for a relaxing long weekend!

Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend in Stockholm! Great tips!
Sue, awesome Stockholm page! I found your tips VERY useful...I'm going in May.
I had heard of the ice hotel, but not the ice bar--some people are so imaginative! Enjoyed your page on Stockholm...
Sue, superior restaurant tips! Love the hotel...very "out there". The Ice Bar was a "blast" to read about, and the extra photos were great. Quite comprehensive for a weekend getaway...what a birthday gift.
I see you have good taste! A really cool place to visit. I prefer a beach on a tropical island except in the summer when the weather is OK. here.((((=)))))

"Buttslut Confessions" is the apt subtitle to this offering, which should dispense with the monotonous interviews and concentrate more on scorching rectal slamming such as the Kimberly Jade/Paul Cox sequence. Unlike many gals whose eyes light up with dollar signs as their cheeks are channeled, Jade loves assfucking the way Senators love filibusters. And what better way to top off an evening of rectal entertainment than a big drippy splooge on her plundered brown eye? Other scenes fare less well, but freckled Liza Harper takes a decent ride on the Styles pony of pork.

Mmm, now them's eats.
Cookbooks with a baseball theme isn't a new concept. Often they're used as either promotions or fund-raisers, collected by the players' significant others. Admittedly, some of the items included are basic, common-sense type items; with the exception of Rusty Staub and perhaps a few others, we're not talking Julia Child here. But put a ballplayer's name to it and it becomes gold.

The truth about those opinion polls on offshore drilling
Here is a very good article on "Parsing Opinion Polls … and Politics … In Covering Offshore Drilling Campaign Issue." And I'm not just saying that because the author, environmental journalist John Whibey, cites this blog in his analysis, although I suppose that has influenced my decision to repost this article in its entirety. On the blogosphere, as in life, flattery will get you most everywhere. The piece was published on the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media:
Opinion polls are fueling politicians and candidates to push for more U.S. offshore oil drilling, with the media looking on intently.
Since the issue became a political focal point in May and June, polling has been relentless: Zogby. Rasmussen. Field. Gallup. Quinnipiac. CNN. Bloomberg. The list goes on. All point to an increasing public desire to lift a moratorium on more domestic drilling.
It's a rough reality check for the climate change movement: the American public increasingly seems willing to walk – or drive – away from climate change concerns, as high gas prices trump principle.
But as with all polls, the framing is paramount and the media's interpretation crucial.
Keith Johnson, a longtime energy reporter who now writes the "Environmental Capital" blog for The Wall Street Journal, said survey questions should be parsed carefully.
"In polls in which the question is something like, 'Do you prefer more drilling or more investment in alternative energy?,' alternative energy usually comes out ahead," Johnson told The Yale Forum in an e-mail interview. A new Quinnipiac poll bolsters that case.
Notably, a Gallup poll widely cited by the press beginning in June – precisely the time President Bush, Senator John McCain, and Governor Charlie Crist of Florida all began advocating for more drilling – did not ask respondents to choose from alternatives. It simply asked if they would favor or oppose drilling to "attempt to reduce the price of gasoline." And 57 percent said they were in favor, a factor alluded to by Crist in his decision to reverse his position and support more drilling.
Another influential, and crucially timed, poll by Zogby, released June 20, asserted that 74 percent of Americans favor offshore drilling, but it too did not present options.
Media outlets cite the Gallup and Zogby polls often, and often without qualification. (Gallup argues in its news release that asking respondents to choose among alternatives does not "provide information about the relative acceptability … of the alternative proposals taken separately.")
Some polls, though, do show nuance when they ask multi-part questions. For example, a new poll by the Public Policy Institute of California showed that 51 percent of state residents support more drilling; but it also showed that 83 percent want more federal funding for wind, solar, and hydrogen technology.
Johnson said the overall public opinion trends in favor of more drilling are unmistakable, though it remains unclear what mix of remedies the public actually wants, now or in the future.
"Whether (drilling) comes at the expense of the environment, or – like in California – the two are believed by poll-respondents to be mutually inclusive – that is a different question," he added. "It will be interesting to see if a) oil keeps falling and b) gas starts to fall seriously, then what happens to that support."
Platform Fever
The national spotlight is squarely on the issue. President Bush recently lifted the Executive Order drilling ban signed by his father and retained throughout the Clinton administration and the first seven-plus years of Bush II. And a battle to nix the ban has raged in Congress, with Republicans smelling a winning issue both on Capitol Hill and on the campaign trail.
Some openness to drilling is filtering also into Senator Barack Obama's speeches. In an interview with a newspaper in Florida – where more offshore drilling has gained voter support – Obama said that he would consider it as part of a comprehensive energy package. "If, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well-thought-out drilling strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage – I don't want to be so rigid that we can't get something done," he recently told the Palm Beach Post
His choice of Florida for announcing that policy shift is likely no accident, given the importance of the state's electoral count and given that campaigners McCain and Crist, whether or not the eventual GOP ticket, had earlier shifted their own positions.
It's worth noting, too, that one of Obama's top potential vice presidential "short list" prospects, Governor Tim Kaine of Virginia, has signaled his willingness to explore resources off his state's coast. With Florida's Crist reportedly on the shortlist to be McCain's running mate, all four principals in the presidential race might be backing more drilling in one form or another.
Offshore drilling, however, remains an intensely local issue, as the federal government has traditionally deferred to states. Though Washington technically controls the waters from three to 200 miles offshore, the Bush administration continues to say it will leave the decision to state officials.
Benjamin Arnoldy, a reporter who has covered the issue for The Christian Science Monitor, said that Californians last showed more eagerness for drilling during the late 1970s oil crisis. That support bottomed out in the 1990s, with low gas prices.
Arnoldy, who is based in Oakland, said he's surprised this time by how long it has taken for rising gas prices to push their way onto the political stage.
"The issue could be seen as an early indicator of how much economic pain voters are prepared to shoulder in the transition to a cleaner energy future," he told The Yale Forum in an e-mail interview.
California's inlanders are more supportive of drilling than coastal dwellers, a pattern that applies across the country, Arnoldy noted. (Many older coastal Californians remember the infamous Santa Barbara oil spill in 1969.)
Voters in four crucial election swing states – Colorado, Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin, all with no ocean in sight – support more offshore drilling by large margins, according to The Wall Street Journal.
No surprise, then, that the Denver Post and Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune ) have taken editorial positions in favor of more drilling, while papers around the coasts like the San Francisco Chronicle, Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Boston Globe have given it a thumbs-down.
But attitudes are changing even in places heavily dependent on fisheries and coastal tourism. "Where once there was nearly universal opposition to platforms in the ocean," Barbara Barrett, reporter for The News & Observer (Raleigh, N.C.), wrote in a July 10 story, "some speak of them in a new way – as a possibility, an inevitability, even a financial benefit to a region long fearful of the damage drilling could do to tourism and ecology."
The Barrel Wars
One big unknown haunting the whole debate, of course, is whether new drilling for the estimated 18 billion barrels of oil available in off-limits areas could actually push down gas prices, or get America closer to energy independence. Many pro-environment voices have said that more drilling is a fraud and an opportunistic grab by so-called "Big Oil." That would mean the poll questions – i.e., "Do you want more drilling to lower prices?" – are built on false premises, a pipe dream held out to a desperate and cash-strapped public.
The Department of Energy estimates that it would be two decades or so before the new oil would reach the market, and many Democrats advocate just tapping the national reserves now to tamp down price speculation.
Energy journalist Robert Bryce, whose new book "Gusher of Lies: The Dangerous Delusions of 'Energy Independence'" is critical of both political parties' inflated rhetoric, said he thinks the mainstream media's coverage has been "remarkably uninformed."
"In particular, there's been almost no critical assessment of the Democrats' continuing claims that there's not much oil to be found offshore," he told The Yale Forum in an e-mail interview.
Bryce cites successful oil exploration recently in deep water off the coasts of Louisiana, Brazil, and Africa. "Despite these rather obvious news events, very few of the mainstream media stories bothered to mention the boom in the global offshore sector when talking about the drilling ban," he said.
Further, both parties' calls for "energy independence" are nai¯ve, he said, given that the U.S. imports oil from 90 countries and exports oil to 73. Politicians, Bryce asserts, do not "have the vaguest understanding of just how integrated the global energy market is."
Joseph Romm, a former Clinton administration Energy Department official who writes the ClimateProgress.org blog, pointed out in Congressional testimony on July 23 that most of the known oil is off the California coast. And California's politicians remain fairly united against drilling.
"So that leaves about eight billion barrels, which is about what the world uses in three months," Romm said in his testimony opposing new drilling.
The Wall Street Journal's Johnson said new oil from offshore drilling is unlikely to have a near-term "practical" impact on oil flow, though it could have a "psychological" one on trading.
"Crude is priced in the futures market, and future price expectations are what moves the market," Johnson noted. But he cautioned there are few certainties – except for the new energy reality.
"What is certain, or at least seems to me, is that the media attention to the energy crunch in recent weeks and months has been commensurate with its growing importance in the campaign, in business discourse, in daily life, etc.," he said. "So that, at least, is worth celebrating."
5 Responses to The truth about those opinion polls on offshore drilling
I fully support the extraction of water from Minnesota for the use of all Americans and to be traded on the open market. I further support the clearcutting of timber stands within site of Denver, as well as Aspen, Breckenridge and Vail. Natural resources are meant to be exploited for the greater good, not preserved for aesthetics.
Maybe that's just a little sarcastic.
The real question isn't what people think, it's what they know. For example, most of the people who favor offshore drilling believe it will lower prices within a year. What would their peosition be if they knew it would have no effect for more than a decade, and then only a few pennies?
What pollsters should be asking is this: The effect of offshore drilling will be to lower the cost of a gallon of gas by a few cents in a decade or more from now — do you favor drilling under these circumstances?
That would represent informed opinion, which should be valuable from a political and policy perspective.
Drill, drill, drill. What a mantra.
It should be countered by think, think, think.
Stop being so stupid. We have already drilled. The oil and gas companies have put in more than half a million holes in the ground in North America. They have other areas to drill and look for oil. The areas now closed off to drilling don't preclude not drilling in those areas that are open to drilling.
Stop being so stupid. Just drilling more holes and extracting more oil and natural gas just gets us to extracting all the oil and natural gas sooner. There is talk of Oil Peak, certainly in the United States and what it has access to. Just extracting it faster from the United States means it is faster depleted. Strength thru exhaustion is not a method that works.
Stop being so stupid. there are alot of things that we can do to slow the use of fuel that have already brought the price down from July. Energy avoidance, efficiency, source substitution all work and will help bring down our energy prices and the total costs. (I prefer to use the words avoidance and efficiency instead of conservation; some who would call themselves conservatives have nothing to do with energy use avoidance and efficiency.)
The Right has been very effective in their use of language. They dismiss those with different points of view as "tree-huggers", "femi-nazis", "pinko-liberals", "pointy-headed intellectuals", etc.
Perhaps it's time for those with a more Progressive/Environmental stance to start a language campaign. Not a campaign of putting others down. While I agree with Ronald that people should "Stop being so stupid", a better approach might be to attack the ideas/positions, not people.
(People who are attacked are more likely to become entrenched in their position and not as likely to be won over.)
How about a campaign along the lines of "Abandon Ignorance"?
Abandon Ignorance. Don't fall for the bull that we can drill our way to cheap gas.
Abandon Ignorance. Learn how to drastically cut your fuel and electric bill with conservation. Keep a lot more of your money to spend the way you want to.l
Abandon Ignorance. Learn how we can both improve and protect our environment by building more wind and solar plants and reduce our use of dirty, expensive coal.
Abandon Ignorance. Learn how we can support our country by moving away from gas-powered cars and quit shipping our money to foreign countries.
(And, ideally, link each of those to places where the real information is spelled out in easily accessible terms.)
A shining example of the conservative rhetorical strategy of repetition turned into "reality."

SMRPG is a game I was only able to play in 2008 onwards (with it not being released outside U.S. and Japan, etc.) but to this day it remains one of my absolute favourite games, while the forest maze is one of my favourite vg songs. This remix is very well done, it's catchy, its not poorly made and it manages to still keep the same tune of the original song while making it even more awesome. Great work mate, I give you a full score on this. You deserve it!

San Diego's Rady Children's Hospital says the private health data of more than 20,000 young patients was mistakenly shared with a handful of job applicants.
In one breach this month a Rady employee emailed a spreadsheet that contained protected information to four applicants for data management jobs. The applicants subsequently forwarded the document on to two other people.
The hospital says the spreadsheet contained names, dates of birth, diagnoses, and other data including insurance claim information. It did not include street addresses or Social Security, insurance or credit card numbers.
In a previous breach, a different employee emailed a training exercise to three job candidates.
The hospital is notifying the parents of the patients whose information was shared.

The truck will take at least two boats. I think I could have fitted the piccup too. I liked having the Roonio named Serendipity in my truck so much I am never taking it with the trailer again.
Bill talks over the camping preparations with darcy.
On our first sail I saw this as I was looking for an anchorage near the camp site. We got on the water by 1045 in the morning and were the first of the messabouters to show up.
I found a little beach that was protected from the worst of the wind and barge waves near camp. Serendipity needs a little paint but she was otherwise ready to go. I really like this boat and the way it can get me around. on our first sail we hit 7 mph.
This is absolute low tide. this far up the Chesapeake the tide is about 3.5 feet.
The slam dink takes out a new sailer or three. The sail has that purple duck tape on it because I put the unstepped mast and sail on the start of a stone quay and some people thought that meant they should step on it. There was a LOT of room and places to step that made a greater more sense to step. what were they thinking?
D'Arcy at camp.
"Give it here, I know how it works!"
best picture ever.
Petunia like sailing! Ithink she has realized that if she doesn't like sailing she doesn't go camping with me.
I call this "front porch sailing."
The Slam Dink most certainly has its uses. Very fun for the little ones and new sailors. easy to get to the beach.

Impressive plugin!
We have a few dozen logo GIF's we want to display a subset of at random in the sidebar.
The widget allows random rotation of ten ad-code snippits, and I've set up four that display four 260x60 logos successfully at random*. How do I configure the widget to display four "stacked" logos picked at random from the larger pool? For example, the first visit might generate C,Q,I,B, the next page or refresh T,X,A,C, the next one A,M,R,P, etc.
If relevant, we're running 2.9.2 on the live site, 3.3.2 on my local "sandbox" development instance.

WINNIPEG, Manitoba — The North West Co. here expects its food business to continue to be healthy through 2009 "as more people from full-price supermarkets move through our doors," Edward Kennedy, president and chief executive officer, told investors last week. After concentrating last year on integrating the Cost-U-Less operation, which it acquired at the end of 2007, the company plans to focus more on operations this year, Kennedy said. "For example, we didn't do a lot to change the front ...

Mediation: A Tale of Two Studies

India's rupee fell to a new low Tuesday on fears over the country's slowing economy and the impact of a new food programme for the poor on already strained finances.
Asian shares and currencies were also hit on concerns over possible US military intervention in Syria.
The rupee, one of Asia's worst-performing currencies this year, fell to a new lifetime low of 65.71 rupees to the dollar in morning trade, slipping past its previous low of 65.56 on August 22.
Finance Minister P. Chidambaram insisted at a news conference in New Delhi that India can finance the food bill at the same time as meeting its target for cutting its record current account deficit -- the broadest measure of trade -- whose level has unnerved foreign investors.
"We have done our sums -- there is enough money to provide for the food security bill" and after that to meet the deficit target, "which is a red line that will not be breached", Chidambaram said.
The food scheme, which economists say would be a strain on government finances at an annual cost of $18 billion, comes at a time of decade-low growth.
The food legislation, a flagship programme of the ruling Congress party, is intended to "wipe out" endemic hunger and malnutrition in the aspiring superpower.
Chidambaram said that the rupee was now "undervalued" against other currencies and India would have to be "patient, be firm -- do whatever is required to be done -- and the rupee will find its appropriate level".
The benchmark Sensex index also slid, trading down 2.56 percent or 477.79 points to 18,080.34 points in early afternoon.
"Every emerging market is challenged today so India is also challenged, and the impact is felt both on the equity market as well as the currency market," Chidambaram told reporters.
The bill is designed to provide food grains to nearly 70 percent of the population, or 800 million people, for as little as one rupee per kilo.
India's central Reserve Bank of India has previously warned that increased public spending for the food bill could deepen the government's deficit and stoke already elevated inflation.
The rupee, like currencies of other emerging markets, has also fallen on fears of foreign fund outflows as the US economy picks up and the US Federal Reserve rolls back its stimulus programme.

James Reston Jr. On The 'Frost/Nixon' Interviews
In 1977, historian James Reston Jr. helped prepare journalist David Frost for a series of interviews with Richard Nixon that resulted in the former president's tacit acknowledgment of his involvement in the Watergate scandal. Reston later chronicled the exchange in his book The Conviction of Richard Nixon, which inspired a play and now the film Frost/Nixon.
Reston's other books include Galileo: A Life, Collision at Homeplate: The Lives of Pete Rose & Bart Giamatti, and Fragile Innocence: A Father's Memoir of his Daughter's Courageous Journey.

By Rick WoodApril 9, 2010
JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. - Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors held a survivor seminar and "Good Grief Camp" at Joint Base Lewis-McChord North Chapel March 26 and 27 for the nearly 100 area family members and children connected to service members who have died.
TAPS National Seminar Consultant Katherine Dey said the weekend program at JBLM is one of the largest the organization hosts.
"We have served about 25,000 people nationwide," Dey said.
The reception and support given by JBLM units was humbling, she said.
"It's been great," Dey said. "It's just so important to have this kind of showing."
The two-day program focused on coping with loss and sharing experiences with a peer group of fellow survivors, she said.
"I can't say enough about the Soldiers and Airmen who volunteered to be out here today," Dey said. "They are invaluable."
Soldiers helped facilitate group activities such as art projects for children, she said.
Dealing with lingering stress brought on by traumatic loss is a key component of the TAPS doctrine.
Understanding post-traumatic stress disorder is near and dear to the heart of Master Sgt. Creed McCaslin, a TAPS volunteer, who suffered severe wounds as the result of a suicide bomber in Iraq in 2004.
McCaslin said his recovery and struggle to return to sound physical and mental health inspired him to reach out to others.
"I got involved because of my own injuries in combat," McCaslin said.
Overcoming the stigma of PTSD and encouraging people - especially children - to talk about their experiences is vital to recovery, he said.
"It's awesome to be a part of this," McCaslin said.
The nonprofit organization was founded in 1994 as a result of the tragic death of founder Bonnie Carroll's husband, Brig. Gen. Tom Carroll, in an Army C-12 plane crash in 1992.
"The support of command and (JBLM) families is heartwarming," Carroll said. "Without that support, we couldn't do what we do."
TAPS has a 24-hour hotline, 1-800-959-8277 and a comprehensive Web site, www.taps.org with resources for the family and loved ones of the fallen, she said.
The culminating event of the "Good Grief Camp" was a balloon release by the children present.
Each helium-filled balloon had a love note to the deceased family member tied to it and as the children let go, the balloons rose towards the heavens carrying aloft their messages of caring.
Rick Wood is a reporter with the Northwest Guardian, the Joint Base Lewis-McChord weekly newspaper.

Your shutter off the camera!I was considering to buy the ML-L3 for my D5200, appreciating the fact that I shoot at night a lot of times. However, the ML-L3 DOES NOT give you full control of your shutter. It allows you only two dedicated modes for it's very own hardware.

Early-Onset Alzheimer Disease
What is early-onset Alzheimer disease?
Alzheimer disease is the most common form of dementia. It affects your memory, thinking, and behavior. It often progresses to the point where it affects daily activities and functions.
Alzheimer disease most commonly affects older adults, but it can also affect people in their 30s or 40s. When Alzheimer disease occurs in someone under age 65, it is known as early-onset (or younger-onset) Alzheimer disease.
A very small number of people with Alzheimer disease have the early-onset form. Many of them are in their 40s and 50s when the disease takes hold.
Most types of early-onset Alzheimer disease are the same, but there are a few small distinctions:
- Common Alzheimer disease. The majority of people with early-onset Alzheimer disease have the common form of the disease. The disease progresses in roughly the same way as it does in older people.
- Genetic Alzheimer disease. This form is extremely rare. A few hundred people have genes that directly contribute to Alzheimer disease. These people begin showing symptoms of the disease in their 30s, 40s, or 50s.
What causes early-onset Alzheimer disease?
Experts do not know what triggers the start of Alzheimer disease. They suspect that two proteins damage and kill nerve cells. Fragments of one protein, beta-amyloid, build up and are called plaques; twisted fibers of another protein, tau, are called tangles. Almost everyone develops plaques and tangles as they age; but those with Alzheimer disease develop many, many more. At first, these plaques and tangles damage the memory areas of the brain. Over time they affect more areas of the brain. Experts do not know why some people develop so many plaques and tangles, or how they spread and damage the brain.
What are the risks for early-onset Alzheimer disease?
Family history of the disease is the only known risk factor at this time.
What are the symptoms of early-onset Alzheimer disease?
For most people with early-onset Alzheimer disease, the symptoms closely mirror those of other forms of Alzheimer disease.
Early symptoms:
- Forgetting important things, particularly newly learned information or important dates
- Asking for the same information again and again
- Difficulty solving basic problems, such as keeping track of bills or following a favorite recipe
- Losing track of the date or time of year
- Losing track of where you are and how you got there
- Difficulty with depth perception or other vision problems
- Difficulty joining conversations or finding the right word for something
- Misplacing things and not being able to retrace your steps to find it
- Increasingly poor judgment
- Withdrawal from work and social situations
- Changes in mood and personality
Later symptoms:
- Severe mood swings and behavior changes
- Deepening confusion about time, place, and life events
- Suspicions about friends, family, or caregivers
- Difficulty speaking, swallowing, or walking
- Severe memory loss
How is early-onset Alzheimer disease diagnosed?
The current diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer disease relies on detecting the signs of mental decline noted above. Your healthcare provider can then diagnose Alzheimer disease with a few tests.
First your healthcare provider asks about your health history, and also does cognitive tests of memory, problem-solving, and other mental skills. Your provider might also test your blood, urine, and spinal fluid. You may also need CT and MRI scans of your brain. These can give your provider a closer look at brain tissue to show how much damage there is.
In the future, researchers hope that studies on biomarkers will allow experts to diagnose the disease more quickly. Biomarkers are proteins in the body, or other types of markers, that reliably indicate the progress of a disease.
How is early-onset Alzheimer disease treated?
Early-onset Alzheimer disease currently has no cure. But healthcare providers have been successful in helping people maintain their mental function, control behavior, and slow the progress of the disease.
Medicines are used to help people maintain mental function. They include donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, and memantine. Results have been mixed, but these medicines seem to help people with their symptoms for anywhere from a few months to a few years.
Other treatments that may play a role in slowing the progress of early-onset Alzheimer disease include physical activity, cardiovascular and diabetes treatments, antioxidants, and cognitive training. A number of studies are ongoing in this area, and researchers are learning new things about Alzheimer disease every day.
Can early-onset Alzheimer disease be prevented?
Experts don't know how to prevent Alzheimer disease. Recently, some evidence showed that detecting the disease early can lead to better treatment options. It's best to look for any of the early warning signs mentioned above and see your health care provider immediately if you notice any.
Living with early-onset Alzheimer disease
Early-onset Alzheimer disease can be a difficult disease to cope with. It helps to have a positive outlook and to stay as active and mentally engaged as possible.
It's also important to realize that you are not alone. Rely on your friends and family as much as possible. Don't be afraid to seek out a support group, if you feel that it might be helpful.
When the disease is still in its early stages, it's critical to think about the future. This can include financial planning, working with employers on current and potential job responsibilities, clarifying health insurance coverage, and getting all your important documents in order should your health take a turn for the worse.
Although Alzheimer disease has no cure, you can make the best of a bad situation by keeping your mind and your body as healthy as possible. This can include eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, cutting down on alcohol, and using relaxation techniques to reduce stress.
When should I call my healthcare provider?
As with any disease, it is important to keep an eye on your condition. Call your healthcare provider if you notice any sudden changes in yourself, or in the person you care for, that make additional help necessary. You can discuss the next steps with your provider.
Key points about early-onset Alzheimer disease
- Alzheimer disease commonly affects older people, but early-onset Alzheimer disease can affect people in their 30s or 40s.
- It affects memory, thinking, and behavior.
- Although there is no known cure, early diagnosis and treatment can lead to better options.
- Stay healthy with a good diet and regular exercise.
- Avoid alcohol and other substances that may affect memory, thinking, and behavior.
Next steps
Tips to help you get the most from a visit to your healthcare provider:
- Before your visit, write down questions you want answered.
- Bring someone with you to help you ask questions and remember what your provider tells you.
- At the visit, write down the names of new medicines, treatments, or tests, and any new instructions your provider gives you.
- If you have a follow-up appointment, write down the date, time, and purpose for that visit.
- Know how you can contact your provider if you have questions.

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
As announced at WonderCon, Steve Niles and Matt Pizzolo have teamed up with Epitaph Records to distribute creator-owned comics. That enterprise now has a name, Black Mask Studios, and its first project–Occupy Comics, the activism-inspired charity anthology and successful Kickstarter project that Pizzolo headed up.
"Initially I was hoping we could partner with a publisher or retailer to work with us on distribution, but we weren't happy with any of the deals we were offered," said Pizzolo on the project's Kickstarter site. "So instead I decided to invent a solution we'd be happy with, and it wound up seeming like a pretty cool way to support comics creators in general. It's called Black Mask Studios and you can read more about it over at Wired."
Occupy Comics is planned for release in late 2012, and will include contributions from Alan Moore, David Lloyd, Mike Allred, Shannon Wheeler, Eric Drooker, Ryan Ottley, Darick Robertson, J.M. DeMatteis, Joseph Michael Linsner, Douglas Rushkoff, Ben Templesmith, Amanda Palmer and many more. Ales Kot and Tyler Crook are teaming on a story called "Citizen Journalist" (above); check out more artwork from the anthology over at Wired.com.
Well, I hope they cover the racism, assault, rapes, drug use, etc, that exists within the Occupy movement.
Frank Miller, is that you?
It's good to see other artists lending their hand to this important social voice. The Occupy Movement is NECESSARY for our citizens to expose the corruption which Big Business has infected our Government with. Every single person occupying the streets and protesting Corporations is a hero and a patriot. I was compelled to lend a hand and create some new posters for the movement which you can download for free on my artist's blog at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/11/propaganda-for-occupy-movement.html
Hope they don't forget to draw the cops as leering boogeymen with crooked faces like a bad guy from a Silver Age DC comic. I mean, this is just propaganda that will ignore the bad sides of the movement and all legitimate arguments against it so the creators involved might as well go all out.
"Every single person occupying the streets and protesting Corporations is a hero and a patriot."
Especially the communists who joined in and handed out pamphlets over at Occupy San Fran. Well, they are patriots, just for a different country.
"I mean, this is just propaganda that will ignore the bad sides of the movement and all legitimate arguments against it so the creators involved might as well go all out."
And you know this how, exactly? Read the entire anthology?
It's propaganda produced for the benefit of the Occupy Movement, as stated by this very blog. That guarentees an approach to the subject matter that will be less than, let's say, nuanced.
To believe it will deal any real deserved criticism to the group is the height of naivete, but then that would be a quality necessary to become involved with an outfit like Occupy if you're not just there to sell drugs.
I guess your upset that Frank Miller's description of the Occupy Movement was spot on.
Even ultraliberal New York is showing OWS the door:
Dear Gentlemen (and possibly also Ladies? – not sure).
No propaganda. No easy solutions. No black and white.
Do read the entire story, please.

Twenty girls strip mostly naked in a variety of tropical locales ranging from the Caribbean to Hawaii to Costa Rica. Most of these girls are top-shelf magazine model types for whom "hardcore" is likely a dirty word - except for Aria Giovanni.
While it's a huge bonus that a big name and gorgeous model like Aria makes a sexy showing in this video, she's not only buried in the mix, but she's barely highlighted on the box - save for a small photo on the back cover. That's a key marketing mistake because Aria's name alone is a rallying point for a niche of customers.
Nevertheless, the title showcases 19 other models, who certainly know how to take it off and show it off. Each girl gets an average of 2 1/2 minutes of screen time.

I have an emblem on my soldier that I really like and I would like to use it a slightly altered version for my platoon. Can I somehow easily copy the emblem over so I can then make those slight adjustments? I really would not like to have to create the whole emblem again.
Yes you can.
You have to follow these steps to export your emblem:

You Say Regulation, I Say Punishment: The Semantics and Attributes of Punitive Activity

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Recent trends in crime control have given new energy to an age-old question, namely what kinds of activity qualify as punishment. In addressing this question, jurists and scholars have often employed a logic that either restricts interpretations of punishment to traditional forms (e.g., prison, probation, death penalty) and functions (e.g., deterrence and retribution), or expands them to include the broader forms and functions of social control. This paper examines these opposing logics and considers an alternative logic based in common stipulations in power theory. Within this particular framework, punishment is conceived as action that is necessarily relational, intentional, personal and coercive.

On CentOS 6.4 / 64 bit - how to find the limits of the user "nobody"?
Because I can not just
su - nobody and call
ulimit -a:
# id nobody
uid=99(nobody) gid=99(nobody) groups=99(nobody)
# su - nobody
This account is currently not available.
I am asking: how to call
ulimit -a for the CentOS user
nobody, so that I can adjust
/etc/security/limits.conf in regard to the max number of open files for that user.
I have a perl script (a non-forking TCP-sockets based card game daemon) which is being started by
init (I've created a file for it:
/etc/init/my_card_game.conf), but then drops super user privilleges and runs as
sub drop_privs {
my ($uid, $gid) = (getpwnam('nobody'))[2, 3];
die "User nobody not found\n" unless $uid && $gid;
chdir('/tmp') or die "Can not chdir to /tmp: $!\n";
#chroot('/tmp') or die "Can not chroot to /tmp: $!\n";
# try to set the real, effective and save uid
setgid($gid) or die "Can not set gid to $gid: $!\n";
setuid($uid) or die "Can not set uid to $uid: $!\n";
# try to regain privileges - this should fail
die "Not able to drop privileges\n" if setuid(0) || setgid(0);
I want to make sure it has a big enough max number of
nofiles - so that it can serve all connected clients.

12 reviews | 4.3 out of 5
I am very happy with this TV, The 3D is excellent.
I only have rented 3D movies through the cable TV because I don't have a 3D player just yet.
The glasses worked perfectly also! Just like at the Movie Theater!
You do need to sit back about 6 feet to get the 3D perfect which is normal for 3D anyway.
Regular TV is also very good!!
I also use this for a monitor and it works GREAT also.
You have to adjust the resolution a little, I use 1360x768 I am using Windows 7 with a ATI graphic card.
I was very skeptic about the brand and quality of this TV, I have two 50 inch top brand name plasma TV's in my home. I couldn't be any happier with a 32 inch 3d TV and Monitor all in one!!
The sound like most TV's could be better, but most people now days have a home Theater surround sound or sound bar anyway.. Sounds works fine, but could be better..
got tired of waiting for vizio to be in stock,and was unsure of this brand Sceptre but got tired of waiting for the vizio so i gave this a try i'am very happy i did.the 3d is amazon,the sound isnt bad to me at all as in the other review,you just gotta mess with the sound EQ to set if for your liking.there was alittle light bleeding at the upper right hand cornor but seem to have gone away on its own if it wasnt for that i would of gave it 5 out of 5,i bought this mostly to be used as my computer monitor.if you dont need the apps i would say get this over the vizio and save some money,the apps is no point if your going to be using this as a pc monitor.i still cant believe how the 3d looked im blown away the 3d images look as if they are coming afew feet out of the tv is just awesome.
Just got this home today. I have been looking at the Vizio 32" 3D for over 6 months and finally when I get the funds to get it, they are all gone. Then Walmart raises the price back to $449, out of my budget. I saw this one online and took a chance. Glad I did the picture is amazing. Crisp, clear, and the 3D blows you away. Dropped in Transformers 3 and watched it twice! Also watched Raiders of the Lost Ark using the 2D to 3D conversion feature which makes the movie pop. That said, if you don't have a surround sound system hooked up, you might not like this TV. The sound from the built in speakers is poor at best. this tv sounds like a cheap clock radio, so at least a sound bar seems to be in my future. Can't wait to hook up the Xbox 360 and get some game time in.
It's the best tv in its class for the cost all day long. I spent several hours looking at reviews for 3D interchangeability in a tv on several brand names from non bias sources and found that sceptre and Vizio had comparable specs. I went with spectre because of the almost equal quality for a more affordable cost. I will continue doing business with spectre as long as they hold ground and continue to offer the people a fair deal as they do today.
My wife and I bought this TV to replace our 32" Insignia LCD set, which is going into our guest bedroom. Setup was a fairly painless process. You just need to screw the base on, remove the plastic and all the annoying stickers (the hardest part). It comes with a 2 pair of 3D glasses and a easy-to-use remote control with a neat rubberized-grip edge. The User Manual is simple and straightforward. There is also an easy Quick-Start guide. The factory default picture settings are a little harsh, so we adjusted them The 3D effect is marvelous. The 2D to 3D effect is not so hot. We couldn't see much difference, but who cares really, because I doubt if anyone would really use it. The internal speaker sound is lacking (which I knew it would be), so we bought a Pioneer VSX-821-K (3D ready) A/V Receiver. Our Sony 3D-Ready Blu-Ray player works great using HDMI at 1080p. Movies using the Cinema frame rate of 24 per second work just fine. Our HD Cable TV converter box works good using HDMI at 1080i. The 3D On-Demand movies worked perfectly (Shrek 4 was awesome). Our (Windows 7) Computer is connected with an ATI video card using HDMI at 1080p. The picture is crisp and clear, and the Dolby 5.1 audio is wonderful! We have a TV tuner card and record HD programs. The picture is beautiful! There is only one issue. The front of the TV is reflective glass, not plastic, like the usual LCD unit. I guess that's so the 3D effect works properly. It makes it a bit hard to see the picture when there's bright light in the room. I wouldn't buy this TV for a Day Room or something with lots of sunlight. When watching movies, we turn the lights down a bit (for the proper theater ambiance), which works great. I'd highly recommend this TV to anyone (with the preceding comments in mind). We got it at about 1/2 of the MSRP, which is a great deal!
I was looking for a 3d television that had to fit in my son's college dorm room, and wasn't too expensive. This was one of the few that offered 3d in the 32" size. I compared it to the Vizio....the Vision LCD was much darker than this LED. Overall, the passive 3d seemed to work fine as long as you were in the right viewing angle. You would see artifacts if you were off-angle. I also notice that fast moving action scenes, or scenes with a lot of detail that is moving (such as the introductory scene in "Sahara", where the camera is panning across a lot of newspaper clippings) there was definitely a degradation in the sharpness of the lettering. This isn't so much a criticism, as it is showing where the 60Hz' limitations are. The sound is average for a TV of this thinness and size. Anyone should use external speakers for any LED TV. Again, however, I didn't expect this to compete with TV's that cost two-three times as much. Overall, I am pleased with this TV, and would recommend it, with the above caveats, to anyone. I have only had this for a month, so I can't report on its reliability yet.
I was excited for this television since the price is low and it is 3D capabilities but the picture quality is so poor. On top of that, the tv can't output sound at the same time when using the sound output, this is a very limiting feature. I used the TV for both Xbox and computer, on the computer I used a picture tuning software to help compensate for the terrible color reproduction and it still didn't help much. The tv suffers from terrible contrast, which limits all the colors. For some reason, the picture is also not very sharp, as if the pixels are too big or spaced too far apart from each other. It is not the signal quality as it is outputted from the computer and xbox 360 at the correct resolution to the panel's native resolution. Overall, the TV is just cheap and not worth the money spent on it.
I bought this brand because of the reasonable price it had. Was skeptical since I had not heard of this brand. I have had my set for a month now and I am very happy with the picture. I would and will buy this brand if I am in need of another set.
I am impressed with the clarity from various angles. Quality of picture is great. 3D is amazing
I am very happy with this television. It has a beautiful picture and the 3d movies look very good on it. My only complaint about it is the swivel base. It is very flimsy and it is hard to swivel but it is not bad enough to take away the overall satisfaction with the tv.
I really enjoy my TV. The picture quality is excellent and the sound is great. The TV has all the features I was looking for and the 3D feature is truly breathtaking. I would very much recommend this TV to anyone who is looking for a great TV with great features.

On the Ground in D.C.
News from my buddy Shawna, who became a Seattle-to-D.C. transplant a year ago:
That "money for the poor not the war" slogan is plastered ALL OVER D.C. Very unfortunate.
This is the first protest since I've been here, though, that it is actually large enough for people to shed that "I'm too cool to protest" feeling, at least among the folks I hang out with. I went to a show last night, just a regular ol rawk show with people of all ages and backgrounds, and EVERYONE was talking about it positively. It gets ya all fired up, ya know?
