Keratitis caused by a virus or bacterium tends to get better relatively quickly. Herpes keratitis and bacterial keratitis are treated with antiviral medication or antibiotics. Keratitis caused by other viruses usually gets better on their own within a few days.
If keratitis is related only to contact lenses, the duration tends to be brief.
Keratitis caused by autoimmune disease, some parasites or prior injury can be difficult to treat and may be long lasting (chronic). In these cases, permanent damage to the cornea with impaired vision may occur despite intense treatment.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
Note: this whole post is about a MAJOR SPOILER from "The Big Burn," a 2014 Batman and Robin arc which, coincidentally, has just been reprinted in paperback. As such, I recognize that it might be new for some folks. If you don't want to be spoiled, come back next week for a 30-years-later look at Crisis on Infinite Earths #8. I'll understand. I mean, I still haven't finished Gone Girl.
Now then …
Manga | A special treat awaits moviegoers who see Boruto: Naruto the Movie in Japanese theaters in August: A special Naruto book that includes both the final chapter of the original Naruto manga and a new one-shot story by Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto. [Anime News Network]
Creators | Sophie Campbell discusses working on Jem and the Holograms and the reactions she received earlier this year after coming out as trans: "I didn't know how people would react, my family in particular of course, and I was worried about being fired from Jem because I was scared that IDW or Hasbro would feel like this wasn't what they signed up for… It's only been a couple months, but so far it's been the opposite of what I was expecting. My family has been super great even though it's tough for them, and as far as work goes, I've actually gotten more offers than I've ever had, and my publishers have been more than amazing." [The Advocate]
Conventions | With the 20th Small Press Expo kicking off Saturday in Bethesda, Maryland, The Washington Post's Lori McCue singles out three of the show's biggest draws: appearances by Jules Feiffer, Lynda Barry and Bob Mankoff. Meanwhile, Michael Cavna spotlights Fear, My Dear, the new release from convention guest Dean Haspiel. [The Washington Post]
Creators | As he prepared to head out to Small Press Expo, Farel Dalrymple paused for an audio interview about his newest book, The Wrenchies, which will debut at the show. [Comics Grinder]
Creators | Writer Tom Taylor teases what we can expect in his new Superior Iron Man series. [Previews World]
Crime | The comics community of Kirkcaldy, Scotland, just north of Edinburgh, has rallied around a local comics shop after thieves broke in two weeks ago and stole cash, a computer, a two-and-a-half-foot-tall Darth Vader figure and a copy of New Mutants #98 (the first appearance of Deadpool), with a total value of more than £500 (about $835 U.S.). It could have been worse: The thieves left some comics boxed up, ready to go, but apparently they were interrupted. But you won't believe what happened next: Kingdom Comics owner Andrew Magee says customers donated their own comics and DVDs to help rebuild his stock, and a number of local artists have donated art to be auctioned off to help the store. [The Courier]
Creators | Bryan Lee O'Malley discusses his new graphic novel Seconds, and how it reflects where he is in his life. [BoingBoing]
Wednesday was Batman Day, the official date for celebrating the character's 75th anniversary. It's fine to have a Batman Day, I guess — I've been getting emails from online bookstores saying "Celebrate Batman Day with our sales!" so it's coming across in practice like President's Day — but Batman is so ubiquitous in pop culture that you might as well have a McDonald's Day or a Coca-Cola Day. (In a perfect world there would be a Rockford Files Day.)
Anyway, appropriately enough, each of the two regular Bat-books DC published this week looked at one end of Batman's timeline. Batman Vol. 2 #33 wrapped up "Zero Year," the latest (and perhaps the most epic) version of the character's origins; and Batman and Robin Vol. 2 #33 presented "Robin Rises, Part One," the latest chapter in Damian Wayne's posthumous saga. While the former ended impressively, the latter is off to a slow start.
* * *
Amazing X-Men, Vol. 1: The Quest For Nightcrawler (Marvel): Writer Jason Aaron transitions quite seamlessly from his 42-issue (or eight-trade paperback) run on Wolverine & The X-Men to this new series, which maintained the same setting and much of the same cast, only a switch of focus. Rather than the student body of the Jean Grey School For Higher Learning, the stars of this series are the superhero teaching staff, with a few additions not seen in Wolverine & The X-Men (Firestar coming in to replace Kitty Pryde, who was spirited away from the cast by Brian Michael Bendis to appear in his X-Men books, plus Northstar and the guy whose name is in the subtitle and is front and center on the cover).
Aaron's main partner for this first volume is penciler Ed McGuinness (inked by Dexter Vines and colored by Marte Gracia), an artist whose big, muscular, cartoony style fits perfectly with the slightly zany tone of the story, and Aaron's X-Men comics in general. Cameron Stewart draws the sixth issue in this collection, a sort of epilogue in which most of the other characters you would want to see reunite with Nightcrawler do so.
This has turned out to be an eventful week for fans of the first Robin (and of the role in general), thanks to a Robin Rises one-shot, leading into the unveiling of … well, whoever's going to wear the red vest for the foreseeable future, and Dick Grayson's latest relaunch, a July-debuting ongoing series called simply Grayson, wherein the former Boy Wonder will start a new life as a super-spy.
With each of 'em about three months away, obviously I'm not equipped to pass judgment on the merits of either. However, I can tell you what I think about Dick and Robin, how those impressions affect my snap judgments, and why you should — and shouldn't — listen to someone like me.
This week DC Comics released four more annuals, three of which are set in the past and one of which is a big, bridging chapter in an ongoing plot line. All are penned by the regular writers of their series, and are $4.99 for 38 pages. What else do you need to know?
Oh, who made them, what they're about and whether they're any good? Oh, sure, I can tell you that …
Prolific artist Al Plastino, who in recent weeks lobbied for the return of his original art for the 1964 story "Superman's Mission for President Kennedy," has passed away after a battle with prostate cancer, Mark Evanier reports. He was 91.
Born Dec. 15, 1921 in New York City, Plastino began illustrating for Youth Today magazine after he graduated from the High School of Industrial Arts. His first comics credit was on Dynamic Publications' Dynamic Comics #2, cover-dated December 1941.
After serving in the Army during World War II, Plastino returned to freelance work and learned in 1948 that DC Comics was searching for a new Superman artist; according to his website, the publisher paid $55 a page at the time. For the next two decades, Plastino drew Action Comics, Adventure Comics, Superboy, Superman, Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane and Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen, and with writer Otto Binder created the Legion of Super-Heroes and Supergirl.
The Forever Evil and "Gothtopia" crossovers don't exactly dominate DC Comics' January solicitations, but compared to the more mundane goings-on in the other series, they tend to stand out. For that matter, Forever Evil doesn't sound like it's promising much more than a lot of clenched jaws, dark humor and grim spectacle.
Still, if it has to happen sometime, it might as well be in January. I don't mind January so much; it's the darkest month of the year, but after a hectic holiday season it's a chance to catch one's breath. Going back to work after New Year's Day and realizing there's not much more to do but look forward to spring is like waking up at the crack of dawn and surveying a wide, flat, featureless plain — gray from the winter cold and just barely lit by the first rays of the distant sun — and realizing that if you're going to make it across that plain, you'd better start walking.
Sometimes you just have to get through January, is what I'm saying — but sometimes getting through it isn't so bad.
Whew! How was that for an intro? Weren't we talking about comics?

Remember when Batman was a jerk?
Remember when Batman was such a jerk that no less than Mark Waid called him "broken"?
Starting in 2006, writer Grant Morrison aimed to help fix him; and this week, with Batman Incorporated Vol. 2 #13, Morrison concluded his Bat-saga. The issue is a neat encapsulation of the themes Morrison has played with for the past seven-plus years — including the portability (and immortality) of "Batman," the uniqueness of Bruce Wayne, and the importance of not going alone — all drawn with verve and giddy energy by Chris Burnham. (There's even a dialogue sequence where the punchline is "Cancelled!") Like the infinite-Batman cover or the eternal-circle image that dominates an early spread, Batman will go on, but it is the end of a unique era.
As usual, though, some history first …
IDW Publishing's Library of American Comics is partnering with DC Entertainment to reprint rare newspaper strips starring Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. The archival collections will debut in July with Superman: The Silver Age Newspaper Dailies, Vol. 1: 1958-1961.
Although DC and Kitchen Sink Press reprinted the first few years of the Superman and Batman newspaper strips in the 1990s, they only scratched the surface of the comics' run: Superman, which featured the work of such creators as Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, Curt Swan and Wayne Boring, was serialized from 1939 to 1966. The Batman strip, originally titled Batman and Robin, saw three major runs — 1943 to 1946, 1966 to 1974, and 1989-1991. Wonder Woman's newspaper tenure was much short-lived, lasting less than a year (in 1944).
The Superman daily strips will be released in three collections, organized by era — the Silver Age, the Atomic Age and the Golden Age — with Sunday reprints published in a separate, concurrent series later in the year.
When Batman and Robin #18 arrives in stores Wednesday, you'll notice the cover by Patrick Gleason and Mick Gray is decidedly different from the one solicited by DC Comics in December. Gone are the hopeful red hues of a Gotham City at sunset, replaced by the somber blue-gray tones of night.Gone, too, is what might be mistaken for a grin on Bruce Wayne's face, now eclipsed by shadow.
And oh, yeah, it's also missing a grinning Damian Wayne, soaring through the air at his father's side, replaced by the darkness within the folds of Batman's cape. Never has Gleason's skull-shaped signature seemed more appropriate.
While the other Bat-Family titles receive completely new covers for the "Requieum" storyline, which deals with the aftermath of Damian's death in Batman Incorporated #8, Batman and Robin #18 is the only one to boast a modified image — one made more eerie by the absence of Robin.
It's an entirely silent issue," writer Peter J. Tomasi told Comic Book Resources. "No text, no sound effects, storytelling at its purest form — show don't tell — and, holy crap, does Patrick Gleason show why, in my humble opinion, he might be one of the best Batman artists ever. He knocks it out of the park."
First I'd like to thank DC Comics for plastering its latest spoiler unavoidably across the Internet bright and early Monday morning. It did confirm something I'd suspected since before Christmas, but being surprised still has a certain appeal, you know?
(That assumes this isn't reversed in an issue or two. Kyle Rayner was killed one issue and revived the next during a Blackest Night crossover, and something similar is eminently possible, albeit unlikely, in this case.)
Anyway, Caleb has done a great job covering the event's immediate impact, and Corey and Michael have also talked about significant aspects of you-know-what, so for my part I'll be taking a closer look at the "position" itself. Some people study the presidency, some the papacy, and some of us have spent most of our lives reading about … well, you know.
SPOILERS FOLLOW, I suppose.
In the swelling tide preceding Batman Incorporated #8, the promised death of the current Robin and the impending finale of Grant Morrison's six-year opus, something jumped out at me about the writer's previous work for hire: He has a propensity to kill the characters he introduces into the universes of Marvel and DC Comics before he leaves.
Think back to his first major mainstream superhero book, JLA. In it, Morrison and Howard Porter revived the team in a back-to-basics approach featuring the seven most popular and iconic members. But during that time Morrison also created (with Mark Millar and N. Steven Harris) the Mesoamerican hero Aztek. Launched in his own series — whose first issue teased his impending death — Aztek later joined Morrison's JLA and was killed in JLA #41, the writer's final issue.

2007 is the centenary of Norwegian composer Edvard Griegs death. This box was created in honor of this milestone and in conjunction with the theme "water fowl" for "A Wild Goose Chase" gathering held on October 6, 2007 at the Scott County Park.
A setting of a text by Norwegian poet/playwright Henrik Ibsen, "En Svane," (A Swan) remains one of my favorite Grieg songs.
Roughly translated, the text reads:
My white swan, you silent, you still one,
Neither warble nor trill
Let me to suspect that you could sing.
Frightened, avoiding the sleeping elf,
Always listening, you glided across.
But at our last meeting,
When vows and eyes were secret lies,
Yes then, then you sang!
In the birth of this tone you perished.
You sang in death; you were indeed a swan!
--Once you enter Scott County Park, look for the "Pride Lake" parking area. The lake was formerly there, and now is newly-reclaimed by the park. Because of this, as of the date of planting, there was little signage to help one find the lot. You may wish to ask directions from the office at the main park entrance.
--At the "Pride Lake" parking area, find the large rock with the plaque that reads "Pride Lake."
--Next to the rock you will find a large, grassy trail that runs along the lake. Take this trail to the bench that overlooks the lake. (Watch out for the kamikaze frogs that were jumping at our feet on the day of planting! ;-) The bench bears the inscription: "He gave us a love of the outdoors."
--From the bench, continue on the path 62 steps, looking to the left for a fallen log.
--The box is inside the log, under some bark.
--Please re-hide well, as the box is on the trailside of the log and could easily be seen without a good covering.
Many thanks to Big Purple Foot for her help in creating these clues and selecting a location for the box!!! Thank you!!!

Skip to comments.The UN Tax???? - The UN wants to tax us!
Posted on 12/22/2003 7:32:21 PM PST by Conservomax
Many politicians seem to think that the answer to every alleged problem is higher taxes. Howard Dean, for instance, has said he would repeal the Bush tax cuts -- even though this would boost the average familys tax burden by nearly $2,000.
This initiative sounds radical, and it is. But some proposals out there are even worse.
The United Nations, for instance, wants to create an International Tax Organization (ITO) that would have the power to interfere with national tax policies.
This crazy idea first surfaced two years ago in a report from the world bodys High-Level Panel on Financing for Development. Since then, the U.N. has been working to turn it into reality. For instance, U.N. General Secretary Kofi Annan recently called for the creation of a global tax commission. But no matter what its called, an international bureaucracy with power over tax policy would be an assault on American sovereignty.
An international tax organization, of course, would mean higher taxes and bigger government. Indeed, U.N. officials have been quite open about their intentions. The chairman of the U.N. panel that first endorsed the creation of an ITO said that it would take a lead role in restraining tax competition. According to this mentality, its unfair for America to have lower taxes than places such as France and Germany, especially if it means that jobs and investment flee Europes welfare states and come to America.
For all intents and purposes, the U.N. wants to create an OPEC for politicians. Governments would conspire to keep taxes high, and countries with free-market tax systems -- such as the United States, Switzerland, Ireland and Hong Kong -- would be targeted for persecution.
The U.N. also wants the power to levy its own taxes. The original report looked at two options, a tax on currency transactions and a tax on energy consumption. Both of these proposals would hit America hardest. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. In the past, the U.N. has endorsed new taxes on the Internet, including a tax on e-mail. Again, the U.S. economy would pay the lions share if this reckless idea took effect.
But the prize for the worst U.N. idea probably belongs to the proposal to give governments permanent taxing rights over emigrants. You see, the U.N. thinks its unfair when talented people leave high-tax socialist nations and move to places such as America. But since even the U.N. realizes it would be unacceptable to prohibit emigration, the bureaucrats are instead proposing to let governments tax income earned in other nations.
This scheme is a direct attack on American interests because of our high levels of immigration -- particularly the well-educated portion of the immigrant population. For instance, if a doctor from the Caribbean moves to America, his home government would get to tax income he earns here. If a Chinese entrepreneur moves to Silicon Valley, the Chinese government would get to tax his U.S. income.
Foreign-born workers in the United States, including both citizens and resident aliens, earn nearly $600 billion each year. Imagine the damage if foreign governments could tax that income. Even if they imposed only a 15 percent tax rate, foreign governments could drain nearly $100 billion from our economy.
There is an understandable temptation to dismiss these U.N. proposals as silly. After all, the United States can veto any bad initiatives. But this passive approach is a mistake. What would happen, say, if Howard Dean were president when the U.N. was voting whether to create an International Tax Organization? Could we trust him to veto this nutty scheme?
Another reason we should worry: The U.N. is just one of several international bureaucracies working to undermine fiscal sovereignty. The Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) targets harmful tax competition and the Brussels-based European Union enthusiastically backs tax harmonization.
Whats particularly troubling is that U.S. taxpayers are footing the bill for much of this nonsense. We dont belong to the European Union, but we pay 25 percent of the costs at the U.N. and the OECD.
Fortunately, some members of Congress are trying to address this. For example, Rep. John Sweeney, R-N.Y., has introduced legislation that would end U.S. funding of these bureaucracies if they insist on pursuing policies that undermine America. Bureaucrats at the U.N. and OECD dont want to risk their bloated budgets and tax-free salaries, so this is a good approach.
Clearly we have to do something -- unless we want to see our tax bills soar
Let's see...they want to leave dictators in power; they want to control the Internet; they want to revoke the Constitution of the United States of America's Second Amendment; and now they want to tax us?
If the U.N. is trying to foment an armed revolt against their presence in the United States, they're certainly going about it the right way...
In a word: no.
It bears repeating. The United Nations does NOT stand for either life or liberty. They are nothing but a leftist-legitimized collective of tinpot dictators who want a means to boss around the only remaining superpower and defender of liberty in the world.
U.S. out of U.N. (and vice-versa)!
This is idiotic. First of all, jobs are created by businesses and commerce. The governments in France and Germany provide health care for all their citizens which in turn makes it a lower cost for businesses (they don't have to provide it).
Excessive taxation allows governments to subsidize whole industries and promotes dumping (selling products below their cost to capture market share and destroy competition).
If Kofi and Co want to make markets fair they should limit taxation and government, not seek to expand it. No country (or union of countries) has ever taxed itself to prosperity.

They will tax us just like the have done everything else to us. Incrementally (I'll give Rush credit here for teaching me this). First it's a tax on something you can't refuse to buy or do, such as international money flows (tell me how you'll refuse that one, as it takes place so far over your head that you couldn't stop it if you tried). Then it will be over the flows of goods, again prior to your receiving them, and it will be something you have to have (gasoline, but from the producer not the consumer, etc.). Finally, it will be over mundane things, and close to your pocketbook, and you'll just complain and pay it, just like you do all the other taxes you can't stop or refuse.
I just wonder when we'll reach the point where they take every dollar out of private production. That's ultimately where we're headed, even without the UN. If the government keeps taking and taking, incrementally, what's left? Think of sales taxes. Those always go up, never down. How long will it be before the rate is 50% or 90% of the cost of the purchased item? What will you be able to buy then?
Private land ownership in some countries rests in the hands of a tiny elite, leaving 99% of the population with no opportunity to own land. This sort of situation, common in many countries, contributes to social injustice and political instability. At times these nations engage in land redistribution schemes but the benificiaries of these plans are ill-equipped to manage the land on their own. In this instance, temporary public control of land use is indespensible.
Whoever wrote this should have used the whole quote. I'm no lover of the UN, but proponents of UN disbanding should be honest.
That all depends on the nature of the 'public agency' in question. Given the UNs preference for totalitarian regimes and brutal dictatorships, (yes, I said PREFERENCE) that proposition is a load of crap.

hi ladies,
I am trying to introduce seasonally fresh fruits and veggies to my DD. To that end, I have eggplant puree in my freezer, and I want to add something to it to help out the flavor.

The Eternal Ham
September 25, 2015 | by Sadie Stein
Dorothy Parker is said to have been the author of one of the best quotes in history: "Eternity is a ham and two people." Like many such quips, it's hard to find the original source—although in this case, we can safely assume that life was certainly the direct inspiration.
It's not just that hams are big—they were even more massive in Parker's day than they are now—or that a little of the salty meat goes a long way. It's also the fact that a ham goes immediately from a thing of festive beauty (cue pineapple rings, scored surfaces studded with cloves, glistening patina) to a professional leftover. It goes very gentle into that good night. And, because it is cured, and because it can be used in so many ways, and because you can always, always scrape more meat off that bone—well, you're really never justified in throwing it away. It's with you for eternity. Read More »
How to Photograph the Inside of Your Body, and Other News
March 18, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
- The eccentric poet Bill Knott once faked his own death, but last week he really died. (Unless this is one hell of an elaborate ruse.) He wrote of himself: "my poetic career is nugatory … no editor will countenance my work; i've been forced to self-publish my poetry in vanity volumes; i am persona non grata and universally despised or ridiculed by everyone in the poetry world."
- The truculent, condescending subtext of the word actually.
- Checking in with Alejandro Jodorowsky, everyone's favorite cult filmmaker: "'Maybe I am a prophet,' he said in 1973. 'I really hope one day there will come Confucius, Muhammad, Buddha and Christ to see me. And we will sit at a table, taking tea and eating some brownies.'"
- One way to get a glimpse at the inside of your body: swallow a frame of 35 millimeter film, "folding each piece in a brightly colored capsule that allow[s] for the acids and bodily fluids to process the film with minimal risk of colon damage."

Possible to help! Thank you kindly.

Category: baby name Charlotte
By Anna Otto, Waltzing More than Matilda
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are expecting their second child in April, and rumour has it that they are going to have a princess, rather than a prince (rumour also said that Prince George was going to be a girl, so don't get too attached to the notion).
However, suppose Prince George did have a sister rather than a brother, what might her name be? I looked through the names of all those born in the House of Windsor to a monarch, or to an heir to the throne, and found that the names chosen for them tended to follow fairly clear patterns.
Our focus today is on fictional characters in children's books, though some older characters' names in stories beloved by teens are finding favor too: Holden in Catcher in the Rye, for example, and Juliet in Romeo & Juliet.
The charming characters inspiring the names of an increasing number of babies include:
By Abby Sandel, Appellation Mountain
Lately when I hear a birth announcement, I'll sometimes find myself thinking: "Oh, what a nice, normal name."
This is madness, of course. Because there's no such thing as a normal name.
There are stalwart classics, like Elizabeth and James. There are well-established mainstream choices, like Jacob and Ava.
Trends have been with us forever. And there have always been kids with outlandish names, the Bunny and Princess, or Rebel, Rocket, and Rogue of their generations.
By Abby Sandel, Appellation Mountain
Americans are more daring when it comes to naming daughters, and the numbers bear this out.
In 2013, just over 67% of girls born in the US received a Top 1000 name. Boys, on the other hand, received a Top 1000 name nearly 79% of the time.
It makes predicting the most popular names of the future slightly more difficult when it comes to girls. With everything from surnames – Madison and Addison – to enduring choices like Emily and Elizabeth in the current Top 20, it's tough to say which direction parents will go in the future.
Or maybe we'll just keep going in every possible direction. This list is a little bit literary, slightly musical, occasionally globetrotting, sometimes unisex.
By Abby Sandel, Appellation Mountain
Confession: I've watched Kid President's latest YouTube video more than a dozen times. It's called "Letter to a Person on Their First Day Here," and even though little Robby Novak (a.k.a. Kid President) never mentions names, it reminds me of the happiest part of talking all things onomastic.
Around 360,000 babies are born every day. That's 4.2 newborns every second. Even if we limited it to arrivals in the English-speaking world, it would take a lot of berry brainpower to help find names for all of those lovely new people.
It's worth looking for the right name, isn't it? All of these new people are going to do some amazing things. At their best, the names we bestow on our children honor that potential.

The omni dc is an excellent hotel. It is well designed and very well located. Near fine restaurants including petite plats, my favorite french restaurant in dc. The rooms are always nice, clean, and kept up, staff is helpful and professional. The hotel is not brand new, and but it maintains a high class rating for me because it is so well kept up. A few minor things prevent a five rating. Slow elevators, it is a popular hotel and when it gets booked the experience feels a little crowded and slow, it doesn't have an obvious or easy entry with a rolling suitcase, but no place is perfect. I prefer the hotel for business. I would not use the hotel for a family vacation. There are better places for young kids and granddaughters. But, she for the business traveler, and this hotel is hard to beat.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Knight for a Day
Irwin's foray into the chivalry game began last Christmas in his quest for a memorable gift for his ex-wife. (They are still good friends.) "She always wanted a knight in shining armor," reports Irwin, 36, "so I thought I'd give her one for real." After surprising his ex, Irwin decided it would be a shame to waste the weeks of preparation reading children's books and encyclopedias, not to mention the $4,000 he had invested in a 13-year-old white Arabian horse named KK and a 19-piece plastic armor getup. So he placed ads in local papers in February, and business quickly ig-knighted.
At $150 a romantic romp, Irwin bears gifts and flowers and delivers marriage proposals (so far, the answer has always been yes), apologies and Mother's and Valentine's Day greetings. Though the recipients of Irwin's visits are usually women, one wife hired him to surprise her husband while the couple dined in a restaurant for their fifth anniversary. On another occasion a teenage Romeo, paying for Irwin's Valentine visit to his girlfriend with quarters and dollar bills from his paper route, came up $17 short, but Irwin gallantly told him to forget it.
A product of a broken home in California, Irwin hitchhiked to Michigan at 12 to live with an uncle. "I had a crummy childhood," he recalls. "Maybe that's why I live in a fantasy world." Nevertheless, Irwin takes his knighthood seriously. Even though his business card reads "Our service is limited only by your imagination," he has turned down requests for "a knight for a night" and throwing a pie. "When you put on armor," he says, "you want to do good deeds."

Rugged Optical Carbon Monoxide Field Analyzer

Research Institution:
AbstractDetection of carbon monoxide (CO) is an essential element of the North American Carbon Program. CO detection is challenging because of the low, 100 parts-per-billion (ppb), concentrations in the atmosphere and the required 10 ppb precision. Vista Photonics proposes to develop novel optical sensing technology that will provide unambiguous carbon monoxide detection with better than 10 ppb precision in less than one minute. The analyzer will be about the size and weight of a can of soda, with integrated optics and electronics, and will operate long-term unattended (without cryogenic fluids). The analyzer will run at a reduced pressure for selectivity to carbon monoxide in the presence of atmospheric contaminants in wet or dry air. The sensor will require no more than 0.1 liter (NTP) of reference gas per day to provide 1 ppb CO measurement accuracy. In quantity, the sensors will retail for less than $6,000, excluding vacuum requirements.

Graveside services are scheduled Saturday for Richard Sherwin "Gus" Trueblood, a member of the Trueblood family who moved to the Santa Clarita Valley in 1938 and long owned The Signal.
Born in Marion, Indiana, on Oct. 5, 1927, "Gus" Trueblood was a scant decade old when his father, Fred Trueblood Senior, bought The Newhall Signal and Saugus Enterprise from its founder, Edward H. Brown.
The family promptly moved to Newhall, living in a home that was part of William S. Hart's ranch for a time. "Gus" Trueblood went to Newhall Elementary School and later San Fernando High School, from which he graduated in 1945.
Before embarking on a military career, Trueblood worked at The Signal and attended the Frank Wiggins Trade School to learn to operate both Linotype and Intertype machines, used in their day to set hot-lead type for newspapers. One of the big "linecasting" machines can be seen in the lobby of The Signal today.
Trueblood twice achieved newspaper fame for photography. In the first case, the Los Angeles Times published a photo of "Gus" Trueblood dancing on the steps of Newhall Elementary School after it burned down in 1939. That shot got him a "good thrashing from his father," family members reported.
In his second brush with fame, Trueblood's photo of Gene Autry's Melody Ranch burning down was picked up and transmitted nationally by The Associated Press.
Trueblood joined the Air Force and served during the Korean War, eventually rising to the rank of staff sergeant. He also spent time in Europe in the Merchant Marine.
In 1966 he returned to the family home on Newhall Avenue to care for his mother, Anne Trueblood, who lived to be 99 years old. He remained there until his death on Dec. 18.
Richard Sherwin Trueblood is survived by his sister, Rosemary, and her husband, Tom Shields, of Lancaster; nephews Fred Trueblood III of Camarillo, John Trueblood of Santa Rosa and Mike Trueblood of Saugus; and niece Kyltie Diggins of Morro Bay.
Services are scheduled at 11 a.m. Saturday at Eternal Valley Memorial Park in Newhall.

We've got a DLL (a COM server) that will compile fine in 32-bit and 64-bit, but the DLL uses the same CLSID and AppID for the 32-bit version and the 64-bit version. Is this OK or does this have to change?
I'm asking this because apparently on a 64-bit machine, we can't register the 32-bit version and the 64-bit version together. It would be nice if 32-bit client applications could automatically use the 32-bit DLL, and 64-bit client applications could automatically use the 64-bit DLL.
On a related note, we have the source code and Visual Studio 2005 project file for a client application ... how do we compile a 32-bit and 64-bit version of the same application? It's a C# application, and it includes a reference to our COM server DLL like this:
<ItemGroup> <COMReference Include="ComServer">
<VersionMajor>830</VersionMajor> <VersionMinor>0</VersionMinor>
<Lcid>0</Lcid> <WrapperTool>tlbimp</WrapperTool> <Isolated>False</Isolated>
</COMReference> </ItemGroup>
If it turns out that we need a separate CLSID for 64-bit, how do we make this reference "only for the 32-bit configuration" in Visual Studio? Or do we have to have separate projects with the same source code: one that refers to 32-bit DLL, and the other that refers to 64-bit DLL?

Earlier this week I traveled to Joplin, Missouri, for a trip I will never forget. The Joplin story is one of a community that that never gave up, that demonstrated steely resolve in the face of tragedy, and that is coming back stronger and better than before. It is also the story of volunteers – 130,000 strong and counting – whose selfless service has lifted up an entire community when it needed it most.
For many residents, the one year anniversary was a painful reminder of the devastating EF-5 tornado that ripped through Joplin, killing 161 people, destroying 7,500 homes and buildings, and leaving a trail of destruction through the heart of the city.
But even more so, the anniversary was a symbol of hope, pride, optimism, and unity. The people of Joplin did not let themselves be defined by what happened on May 22, 2011. Instead they defined themselves by what happened after - their extraordinary resilience and desire to rebuild.
As President Obama told the graduating seniors at Joplin High School, "Here in Joplin, you've also learned that we have the power to grow...

I shall never forget a little girl named Sabrina. Her hair was fly-away dish-water blonde and framed her narrow face, thin lips, pointy chin and blue eyes. Thin and gangly, she made a perfect target for numerous taunts and teasing from other children. She was also very disruptive in class. She was defiant of the teacher, aggressive to other children and rude. It seemed she didn't want to learn. She needed help!

I am expecting my 2nd baby girl in a few months and want to find reusable breastpads that are comfortable and don't leak. DD1 is 4, I nursed her for 2 years - I tried lillypads...didn't like them. They were uncomfortable to me and I leaked a lot..DD was a heavy nurser so my milk supply was consisitently pretty heavy. I also tried some thin reusable nursing pads..I don't remember the brand, but I leaked right through those as well. So, I ended up using using disposables....I would like to avoid using disposables again, so please share your opinions on the best and worst reusable breast pads for heavy leakers:) Thanks Ladies!

Horace Annesley Vachell
Horace Annesley Vachell (1861–1955) was a prolific English writer of novels, plays, short stories, essays and autobiographical works.
Born in Sydenham, Kent on 30 October 1861, he was educated at Harrow and Sandhurst. After a short period in the Rifle Brigade, he went to California where he became partner in a land company and married Lydie Phillips, his partner's daughter. His wife died in 1895 after the birth of their second child. He is said to have introduced the game of polo to Southern California.
After 17 years abroad, by 1900 Vachell was back in England and went on to write over 50 volumes of fiction including a popular school story, The Hill (1905), which gives an idealised view of life at Harrow and of the friendship between two boys. He also wrote 14 plays, the most successful of which in his lifetime was Quinneys (1914), made into a film in 1919 and again in 1927. 'Quinneys' was first published as a book by John Murray, London in 1914. It was "a book of friends; of quaint human characters against the background of a shop for faked antiques and genuine love."[1] Another play, The Case of Lady Camber (1915), was the basis for the film Lord Camber's Ladies (1932), produced by Alfred Hitchcock but not directed by him. It was later adapted again as The Story of Shirley Yorke. Vachell's last autobiographical book, More from Methuselah (1951), was published in the year of his 90th birthday.
Although some fiction, like the stories in Bunch Grass (1912), is set in American ranching country, much of his writing concerns a comfortably prosperous English way of life which was echoed in his beautiful old house near Bath and his old-fashioned, distinguished appearance and manner. He was a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. He died on 10 January 1955 in Somerset.

Educate the Children, Inc.
Rating: 5 stars 27 27 reviews
PO Box 414 Ithaca NY 14851 USA
Educate the Children provides educational opportunities for low-income women and children in Nepal. Programs include scholarships for indigent children, improvement of public school facilities, training of teachers, establishment of pre-primary education opportunities, and programs for rural women that incorporate literacy, health education and income generation components.
Over the course of nearly a quarter of a century, ETC's work has benefited at least 15,000 people directly and countless more indirectly. Residents of the areas in which we have worked have benefited from: (1) Improved public health conditions: ETC has constructed hundreds of sanitary toilets and offered public health training events for thousands of attendees. Chronic diarrhea and other bacterial illnesses are very common, and cause people to miss work and school, but these problems decrease significantly when people have and use sanitary toilets and begin to sanitize their drinking water, wash their hands more frequently, and keep their farm animals separately housed. (2) Improved nutrition and food security: ETC has helped farmers increase their yields significantly, and learn to grow/raise a wider variety of more nutritious foods. (3) Improved educational systems: ETC has improved schools both physically and in terms of the quality of education offered. Moreover, teacher job satisfaction and student attendance rates are higher, and student drop-out rates are lower, after ETC has worked in a given school compared to before, and compared to national averages. (4) Increased household incomes: ETC has helped women gain the skills and confidence to start their own businesses. They also gain status in the community and are more willing and able to speak up for their own rights, advocate for community improvements, and participate actively in their children's educational processes. A major reason for ETC's success has been that we involve the target population all along, from the planning stages through implementation and evaluation. The residents of our project areas know that their specific needs and situations are being addressed, and they feel a real sense of ownership of the activities and results. This is important for immediate success as well as for long-term sustainability: because the residents are so engaged, the benefits of the work endure long after ETC has left a particular area to begin working in a new set of villages. In the immediate post-earthquake period, ETC responded quickly to meet villagers' urgent needs for shelter, and to enable the construction of dozens of temporary classrooms. Looking ahead, ETC will be closely involved in the reconstruction of sturdier school facilities. We will also continue our usual programming - helping women to grow more and better food, and to earn more money, will be even more important than ever before as families seek to rebuild their homes and their lives!
Target demographics:
marginalized and impoverished people, especially women and children,
Direct beneficiaries per year:
about 2,000 residents of rural Nepali villages
Geographic areas served:
(1) Women's empowerment - including literacy training and entrepreneurial training (2) Children's education - including infrastructure improvement, sponsorships to enable impoverished children to attend school, and teacher training (3) Sustainable agricultural development - including provision of supplies and training to help small farmers (mostly women) grow greater quantities of more nutritious food for their families and as an income-generating activity Please see our photo essays at http://www.etc-nepal.org/publications.php for more information about how ETC helps people to make better lives for themselves and their families.

My first involvement with ETC Nepal was in 1992, when I met the founder, Pamela Carson, in Ithaca, NY. She started ETC as a vehicle for keeping students in school and it has evolved into an Energizer Bunny of an NGO, always moving forward, always improving its methods. In my years as a board member, I was able to see the impact ETC's work had in the field, working primarily with women and children. ETC's staff in Nepal is 100% Nepali, which adds to the organization's ability to plan effectively and realistically. During many hours of conversations with the staff I came to know a group of highly dedicated professionals who work long hours, without many of the "fancy" extras that one often sees in international nonprofits. For example, staff use public transportation instead of riding in expensive SUVs. There is an ethic of frugality because the staff are committed to using the maximum amount of funding to enhance the programs they carry out. This is an organization that inspires its donors and the people it serves. There is no organization I have been more committed to than ETC, and I would encourage anyone interested in making a difference in the lives of others to get involved as well.
