John Cushing Mahaney CLU, ChFC, AEP (Accredited Estate Planner,) 75 of Summit, died on Saturday, Oct. 12 2013 at Weill Cornell Hospital in NYC surrounded by his loving family.
Born on March 9, 1938 in Sayre, Pennsylvania. John was the youngest of five siblings, James, Jerry, Joseph and Mary. He graduated from St. Bonaventure University in 1959 and joined Equitable's Administrative Training Program in Charleston, W. Virginia where he embarked on a legendary 54-year career with AXA-Equitable as a financial advisor.
He became a member of the National Leaders Corps, National Council and even more prestigious Presidents Cabinet. In addition, he earned his Chartered Life Underwriter designation in 1964 and was a qualifying life member of the Million Dollar Round Table for more than 50 consecutive years. In 1980, John was featured in the NY Times as Honor Agent of the Equitable's Northeastern Region for his professional distinguishments and contributions to the community.
He was fondly referred to in grammar school as "mooch" and by those who knew him in the insurance industry as "the legend." John was an avid golfer with five career holes-in-one and an active member of Baltusrol Golf Club and Canoe Brook Country Club. He was also a dedicated Giants fan who could be found in section 137 at every home game. "Big John" had a short cut for every route in New Jersey and had a friend in every area code, including at a bar in Queenstown, New Zealand. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus, the American Ireland Fund, Bona's Alumni and was an active parishioner at St. Rose of Lima R.C. Church where he shared a strong sense of spirituality and commitment to his faith.
Beyond his many professional and personal accomplishments, John was known for his great sense of humor, incredible work ethic and the enormous amount of empathy he had for his clients and for those who had experienced loss. Some of his happiest times were spent during his summers on Martha's Vineyard, at the Jersey Shore in Sea Girt and having Sunday brunch in the West Village with his daughters. He loved bragging about his wife and daughters, sharing laughs with best friends and working up until his very last day.
John was pre-deceased by his mother, Kathleen Cushing Mahaney, his father, James Ignatious Mahaney and his five siblings. He is survived by his wife of 38 years, Joanne, his four daughters, Shannon, Kathryn, Deirdre (Joe Ostrowski) and Bevan. John's life journey was supported through compassion, joy and faith in God.
Please email your condolence letters and stories to firstname.lastname@example.com.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Bonaventure University in Olean, New York in his name.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2013 at 10 a.m., at St. Rose of Lima Church, 50 Short Hills Ave., Short Hills. Interment St. Rose of Lima Cemetery. Visiting hours will be Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2-4 and 7-9 p.m., at the Bradley Brough & Dangler Funeral Home, 309 Springfield Ave., Summit.

JULY 27, 1963 - Speculation grew that Gov. George Wallace was considering a 1964 run for president. Wallace told The News a couple from New York he met while on business encouraged him to make the run, The News reported on this day in 1963.
"I have no illusions of a Southerner ever becoming President, but I'll say this: We have an opportunity to wake this country up and I will do everything I can and everything in my power to do it," Wallace said.

Olympic Duals today at Pavilion
By AARON MANAGHAN
Sports editor
When the Olympic Duals Wrestling Tournament kicks off Saturday at the Kitsap Fairgrounds Pavilion, 87 returning regional participants, 32 returning state participants and 15 state placers return along with it.
The Olympic Duals, formerly Olympic Dream Duals, happens Saturday with wrestling scheduled to begin at 9:15 a.m. as teams from across Washington battle it out.
This year, host Olympic and local schools Central Kitsap, Klahowya, North Kitsap and Bremerton are joined by Olympia, Sequim, Gonzaga Prep (Spokane), Evergreen (Vancouver), Hudsons Bay, Davis (Yakima), Bethel, Graham-Kapowsin, Wenatchee, Auburn-Riverside and Marysville-Pilchuck.
Were excited about the tournament, Olympic Duals Director Doug Dowell said. Weve got some really top-notch kids that will be competing this year.
In addition to the state placers coming back, four were finalists and three were state champs, including ARs phenom Michael Mangrum.
Opening ceremonies will begin at 9 a.m., with a Friday JV tournament preceding them.
Cost for adults is $8, while students, seniors and children can get in for $4. Children 5 years old and younger will be admitted for free, as will Olympic students with a valid ASB card.
Harrison Medical Center and Benik Corp. are the tournaments major sponsors this year, allowing each varsity wrestler to have a free T-shirt, which were designed by 1010 Graphx.
Awards will be given out for most team falls, as well as individual and team sportsmanship. Trophies will be awarded to first-, second- and third-place teams with each wrestler from those teams receiving medals.
It is our sincere hope that this tournament will provide a lasting memory for all of the young athletes involved, Dowell said. At the same time, we would also love to see the community come out and witness the dedication, skill and sportsmanship that our student athletes are developing through the sport of wrestling.

BOSTON - November 18, 2010 - Global IT security and data protection firm Sophos today announced that Sophos has been named the winner in the Security Category of CRN Tech Innovator Awards. The award - honoring Sophos for both technology innovation and commitment to its channel Partner Program - was presented to Matt Fogelgren, Sophos's director of North American channel sales at the Xchange Tech Innovators Conference on November 12, 2010 in Las Vegas.
Sophos continues to develop feature-rich threat and data protection solutions that are easy to deploy and manage. In June 2010, the company incorporated Sophos Live Protection technologies into its flagship Sophos Endpoint Security and Data Protection offering. This new cloud-based architecture arms customers with the industry's most extensive combination of real-time threat protection and real-time feedback to security and application policy settings. Sophos Live Protection simplifies the rollout of proactive protection for employees inside and outside the office, providing them the protection needed against today's fast-moving threats such as hijacked websites and targeted malware attacks - without adding additional IT security management overhead.
"Innovation is the cornerstone of all we do and the engine that drives the IT market. The technologies we rely on and consider commonplace today, started on the backs of engineers and scientists in a R&D lab years ago," said Vice President, Editorial Director for Everything Channel Kelley Damore. "We applaud this year's winners for the hard work, vision and commitment to providing innovative solutions to our industry and solution providers."
"Today's enterprises are challenged by the ever-expanding, sophisticated threat landscape, compounded by the increasing list of compliance mandates. As such, many organizations demand technologies that offer advanced protection across the endpoint without the complexity and high costs," said Fogelgren. "We're thrilled to be named the winner in the security category based on the strength of Sophos Endpoint Security and Data Protection and our channel commitment. It's a testament to Sophos empowering its Partners with the ability to deliver tremendous value to customers with one solution that proactively addresses multiple threats while safeguarding data."
Sophos Endpoint Security and Data Protection includes anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-spyware, client firewall, data loss prevention (DLP), encryption, network access control (NAC) and content monitoring. Notably, Sophos was the first vendor to offer the industry's first truly integrated endpoint solution by incorporating best-in-class encryption and DLP. Management of removable storage devices and the detection and blocking of unauthorized software are also key components of the endpoint suite.
Plus de 100 millions d'utilisateurs dans 150 pays ont retenu Sophos comme la meilleure défense du marché contre les menaces complexes et les risques de pertes de données. Régulièrement primées, ses solutions intégrées de sécurisation et de protection des informations sont simples à déployer, à administrer et à utiliser, et offrent le coût global de possession le plus avantageux du marché. Elles permettent le chiffrement des données, la protection des systèmes d'extrémité, la sécurisation du Web et de la messagerie et le contrôle d'accès réseau, avec le support permanent des SophosLabs, le réseau mondial de centres d'analyse des menaces de Sophos.

Smitherman has testified that she declined to go on the trip because she thought it inappropriate.
The letter also indicated that an attached letter signed by "Dr. Blake" would confirm Smitherman's illness.
The letter was introduced into evidence this afternoon in Katopodis' fraud trial. IRS Special Agent Pam McClain, a computer investigations agent, testified that the letter was found on the computer hard drive, which she examined as part of the investigation.
Assistant U.S. Attorney George Martin introduced into evidence a number of documents found on the computer, including a letter in which Katopodis told the Alabama Department of Revenue that he has not lived in Alabama since 1998, and a letter in which Katopodis offered to give Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford, free of charge, a car he said he had received in lieu of payment of a loan.
Previous testimony in the trial indicated Katopodis bought the car.
The prosecution has rested. The defense will begin presenting its case at 2 p.m.
Earlier today from the trial: IRS agent says Katopodis lived for time in Pita Stop building
IRS agent questioned on charity's expenses
From today's Birmingham News: Witnesses vouch for Katopodis' character and one describes how his friend brokered the sale of a Corvair to Larry Langford

We have obtained a moderate-resolution spectrum of the quasar PKS 0528-250 with the Red Channel Spectrograph on the Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) in order to study the damped Ly$\alpha$ quasar absorption line system at z = 2.8115, which has 2 velocity components, at z = 2.8108 and z = 2.8132. We obtain a tentative detection of CO A-X $\lambda =1447.3$ \AA\ absorption from the z = 2.8132 velocity component. %The lack of H$_2$ absorption for this component H$_2$ absorption has been found at z = 2.8118 and thus appears not to be directly associated with the CO: this makes the appearance of CO difficult to understand. A measurement of C I $\lambda$ 1560 at z = 2.8115 can be used to constrain further the conditions in the H$_2$-containing gas. We obtain a new upper limit for the CO column density for the z = 2.8108 velocity component that does show H$_2$ absorption. Millimeter-wave observations obtained at the NRAO 12 meter telescope provide new upper limits on CO (J = 3-2) emission. However, these limits are not sensitive enough to rule out the possibility of the presence of a hyperluminous IR galaxy like IRAS F10214+4724.

Head & Shoulders Interview: 24 minutes with a scientist and a stylist
Some people actually blame the quality of the water here. What do you think about that?
I've heard that a few times now. Again, I have not seen any scientific evidence that would support that theory. What I can tell you, though, is that there might be products out there that may not be specifically designed to work with a specific quality of the water so maybe their cleaning or conditioning benefits are not as good as they could be. That again could have an effect on the integrity of the hair. But desalinated water definitely causes a few problems for people.
What benefits does having a stylist and a scientist work together on a Head & Shoulders range offer?
Rene: For me, it's been incredibly mind-opening to work with a stylist because we're looking very differently at how people use products and what products need to deliver. I try to understand all the molecules and organisms involved.
Ben: With Head & Shoulders, it's not about giving you one bottle and saying this is going to take care of your dandruff. That's why we have all the different variants. People these days look for so much more in their hair care products. A woman and a man know exactly what they want their product to do for them.
We all know that H&S takes care of your scalp problems, but now we need to then give you some beauty benefits as well. We're giving you a reason to pick up a bottle and giving you extra to it that's gonna give you great-looking shiny hair and healthy scalp too.
For me the foundation of hair care starts with the scalp. Like a flower, if it has bad soil, it's not going to be the healthiest it can be. So when I get a client come to my chair, it's important that I have a good material to work with. If I don't have a good material, I still can do certain things to make the hair look good. However, for me, it's about advocating healthy hair to them in the first place.
That's why it's a good combination for me to come with Head & Shoulders. It's like bringing my side of celebrity styling and fashion and pairing it with a brand that people didn't necessarily think of in that way.
Basically, at the end of the day, you know what H&S does. Before, as a consumer, it was difficult to get out of the thinking that it was just a dandruff shampoo. Now, you know you have those additional beauty benefits, it's just about tailoring to what you want it to do. Now it feels more personal to what your needs are and you'll be more attracted to pick up that bottle.

Shukla feels a strong law is required as soon as possible to stop scandals like match-fixing plaguing IPL 2013. Shukla refused to comment on Chennai Super Kings CEO Gurunath Meiyappan, who is being investigated for his alleged links with bookies. Gurunath is the son-in-law of BCCI president and CSK owner N.

Phuket Modern Art by Suthirak Chantragun
There is a unique art gallery at Patong Beach namely, 'Phuket Modern Art'. It is unusual in that, unlike a conventional gallery, it is spread through the public areas of the luxurious 'BYD Lofts' apartment building. The gallery is splash of brilliant color illuminating several areas of this glamorous building. Initially, it was intended to decorate just the lobby of the BYD Lofts with 'for sale' paintings by the popular local Phuket artist SUTHIRAK. But his paintings proved to be so wildly popular that SUTHIRAK has made the BYD Lofts the centre of his artistic activity and his colorful pictures have spread from the lobby to the restaurant, hallways and staircases.
SUTHIRAK is an experienced artist who has experimented with many art styles over his long artistic career. He was trained in art at Phuket Campus of Prince of Songkla University and began, as many artists do in Phuket, with reproduction art. But his creative urge led him into experimental original work which reached full-flowering with his current, highly popular and distinctive style. It is characterized by heavily applied layers of paint, reminiscent of the "painterly style", using brush and trowel and splashing. He favors bold, bright primary colors for the most part which reflect his irrepressible, larger than life, personality although, on occasion according to mood, he sometimes creates sensuous, erotic, delicate work and will sometimes employ mixed media as well. All of which results in dynamic, exciting original art, which is highly distinctive and in great demand!
SUTHIRAK's art is mostly, but not invariably, executed on a large canvas, which is necessary to contain his vibrant energy. It is not discrete, quiet and retiring, to be hung in a quiet corner of your residence. It is powerful, dramatic, exciting, and emotional and seemingly explodes from the canvas. It is unmistakably SUTHIRAK, and demands to be the featured focus of a room. Nothing less will do. His work can be found in big hotels, top restaurants, and private residences all over Phuket and internationally. He has mounted several successful exhibitions both local and overseas, notably in the Sydney and Melbourne Art exhibitions of 2006 where his work aroused much comment.
If you are interested in art and are as yet unfamiliar with SUTHIRAK's distinctive and exciting style, you may well be interested in viewing his work. Why not pay us a visit to view his art, and see yourself what the excitement is about. You will find us at BYD Lofts, Patong Beach…5/28 Haad Patong Road, Patong Beach, Phuket; or better, phone for an appointment on 089 6468838.
I passed this small gallery as it was close to the Andman CSuites where i was staying. they had modern bright, abstract painting, not all to my taste but i did like the yacht regatta ones and prix paintings were interesting but I am not a car prix fan so would not buy one. The artist Suthirak is clearly skilled and talented but you need a large amount of space to display his works as most painting were large in size and need to be viewed from a distance to be really appreciated

Even with sunshine keeping things bright today, the high temperature recorded at the Hancock Airport was still only around 73 degrees. The average high for August 4th in Syracuse is 81. It may not have been good beach weather, but it made things like mowing, and weeding around the tomatoes a little less harsh.
For the rest of tonight, computer models suggest that a localized, light shower could move through here. And we may see a couple of showers near Lake Ontario near sunrise Monday morning. The low will be near 50 but it may be cooler in outlying areas.
Monday: A fair weather high pressure will begin to build in keeping our weather pleasant with more sun and clouds. The high should be in the mid 70s.
Tuesday should bring another threat for an isolated shower as more moisture in the atmosphere heads our way on developing southerly winds.
Wednesday still looks to be the transition day as yet another low pressure system developing up in Canada helps to spin warmer and more humid air our way.
With the warmer weather weather Wednesday, we'll see some more scattered showers and thundershowers; however heaviest showers won't reach Central New York until Thursday.
Warmer weather should only be temporary as temperatures look to return to just below normal toward the end of the weekend.

Three-wide: What to look for in Sunday's Tums Fast Relief 500
1. Will the real Mr. Martinsville please stand up? You couldn't ask for a better matchup. The two drivers with the best records at Martinsville in the last four years go head-to-head. Johnson has won five of the last eight races at the .526-mile short track. Hamlin has won the last two and three of the last five. Who will take control at this critical juncture in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup?
2. Harvick hangs tough. This is a make-or-break race for Harvick, who probably will need a career-best finish to keep pace with Johnson and Hamlin. Harvick's best result at the paper-clip-shaped speedway is seventh (three times in 18 starts). That won't cut it on Sunday.
3. Rain dance for Gordon? The four-time champion hasn't won since April 2009, and his drought reached 60 races last week at Charlotte. Martinsville is Gordon's best chance to break the winless string—he has seven victories there (none since 2005) and has finished in the top five in his last 11 starts. — Reid Spencer
Martinsville analysis by Kurt Busch
"You can't jump on the brakes hard. You can't yank on the wheel and you can't jump on the gas. You just have to be smooth and find that rhythm."
Past winners of Chase races at Martinsville
2004: Jimmie Johnson
2005: Jeff Gordon
2006: Jimmie Johnson
2007: Jimmie Johnson
2008: Jimmie Johnson
2009: Denny Hamlin
Sporting News' pick: Jimmie Johnson. It would be insane to go against the four-time defending champion in a race that's crucial to the title. — Reid Spencer
The last time around: Hamlin bulls way to second straight Martinsville win
March 29, 2010: Denny Hamlin plowed through traffic after a green-white-checkered-flag restart to post his second straight victory at Martinsville Speedway, wresting the title "Mr. Martinsville"—at least temporarily—from Jimmie Johnson, who rode a nondescript ninth-place finish to the Sprint Cup points lead.
On fresh tires, thanks to a pit stop under caution on Lap 493, Hamlin powered past Ryan Newman, Matt Kenseth and Jeff Gordon on Lap 507 of 508 after Kenseth and Gordon traded shots earlier on the same lap.
Hamlin cleared Gordon through Turns 3 and 4 and finished the race on a cut tire, .670 seconds ahead of teammate Joey Logano, who weaved his way through the melee to give Joe Gibbs Racing a 1-2 finish at the .526-mile short track.
"Whose house is this?" Hamlin radioed after taking the checkered flag.
"Denny Hamlin's house," spotter Curtis Markham answered.

The six biggest issues in risk management today
Changes have been made since the crisis, but are they enough?
In March, the Economist Intelligence Unit conducted a survey of risk executives and found that firms had slowed in their progress on revamping and strengthening risk management. Based on this survey's results, I believe that it may be too early to draw specific conclusions on where the industry is headed with regard to dealing with its risk management challenges. But the survey does raise the general question of whether there may be a leveling out over the last couple of years of the drive toward – and interest in – improving firmwide risk management practices.
Today's complex risk landscape
It's now universally recognized that, given the interconnectedness of the markets and other factors, risk can crop up instantaneously from anywhere around the globe, causing increased volatility and uncertainty and increasing the pressure on risk managers. This uncertainty increases their need for accurate data and the need to ensure that their decisions take into account a variety of issues and alternatives. Consider the following six factors that have increased in relevance since the crisis:
Operational Risk has recently come forcefully to the forefront. With the increasing complexity of transactions, the global nature of the markets and the risks they represent, it's no longer uncommon for firms to have chief operational risk officers. Only a few years ago, the position did not exist.
Models and their role have become a focus, leading to a number of questions with no easy answers. For example, given the capital issues that resulted from the crisis, should we really continue to rely on a firm's proprietary models? Do we need public sector models, especially since it's been shown that in the event of a failure – especially that of a systemically important financial institution – the public sector may be asked to pick up the pieces?
Systemic risk issues are dominating the regulatory discussion globally, take up a considerable amount of the risk manager's time, and raise very complex risk-related questions. For example, should the balance sheet size of a systemically important institution, or environmental issues such as sovereign risks, be included in a firm's modeling scenarios not only to specifically measure the effect of each on the firm, but also how each may affect systemic risk?
Capital Charges and efficient use of capital have been and will be a major area of focus for risk managers well into the future.
Corporate Governance is also of growing interest to risk managers. Risk managers are now being involved in corporate discussions about compensation, and in some cases actually being asked to opine on compensation packages and whether the incentives built into the packages may increase the firm's risk profile.
Risk managers now are taking their place among company senior management teams and being integrated into many firms' strategic planning processes.
The Board of Directors' role has changed dramatically over the last few years, with risk-related issues becoming more important to directors. This is not only because directors are being held to a higher standard of conduct, but also because they now want to objectively show and ensure they are carrying out their duties to their companies and shareholders properly. Directors are also demanding that a culture of risk awareness exists throughout the organization, and that risk awareness becomes and remains an integral part of the company.
Today's risk managers
Today's risk function is being asked to take on a role not envisioned in the past. Risk managers must become great communicators and take pains to develop that ability. They are now being asked to undertake lead roles in dealing with regulators, and have become indispensible in explaining the effect of regulatory change on a firm and expressing the company's view about new or pending regulatory initiatives.
Risk managers in many firms are also taking on a quasi-sales role, augmenting company sales activities by acting as an "independent" counselor, explaining the risks associated with certain transactions to investors and providing insight into a firm's infrastructure and its ability to deal effectively with the risks associated with a specific transaction or portfolio of activities.
Over the last few years, the role of the risk manager has increased in importance globally. But, there's still a lot of room for it to grow and for risk management to become an even more integral part of a company's daily thought process. Risk managers now are taking their place among company senior management teams and being integrated into many firms' strategic planning processes. But, there are challenges ahead to keep the momentum going – and very few easy answers.

Economist Intelligence Unit Survey Findings at a Glance:
- Financial institutions are increasing their exposure to risk.
- Managing complexity is becoming one of the biggest challenges for firms.
- The risk management function is finding it hard to increase its authority.
- There is plenty of room for improvement in the relationship between the risk function and other parts of the business.
- Progress on revamping and strengthening risk management has slowed.
- Management boards are now paying a lot more attention to risk.

BEAVERTON -- Marist juniors AJ Bartko and Austin Tyner appeared to have their second 5A state championship in the bag Saturday before a dramatic comeback by Summit senior Liam Hall and freshman Garen Gasparovic nearly ended their back-to-back dreams.
But Bartko and Tyner, the top seeds in Class 5A, kept their composure and managed to pull out the thrilling win in three sets 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (3).
After dropping the first set of their state championship careers, Bartko and Tyner rebounded to take the second set 6-3 and build a commanding 5-1 lead in the third.
Before they could take home their second set of state title hardware, 3-seeds Hall and Gasparovic made a furious charge. The Summit duo took the lead with victories in five straight games, stunning both Bartko and Tyner.
"I think we let them get in our head," Tyner said. "We should have just stepped on their throat, but we gave them a loophole and they took advantage of that."
However, Hall and Gasparovic could not complete the historic comeback, as the defending champions showed their resolve and won the next game to force a third set tiebreak.
After falling behind 2-1 on a double fault in the tiebreak, they cruised to a 7-3 win.
"I think (the win) gives us confidence we can pull through any match," Bartko said.

Machado beats out Beltre for Gold Glove
Orioles third baseman Manny Machado beat out Adrian Beltre for the Gold Glove. Evan Longoria was the third finalist among American League third basemen. Beltre was trying for his fifth Gold Glove but Machado ended up winning for the first time.
1 Comment
Manny is the best defensive 3B in MLB by a wide wide margin.
Beltre is possibly a better all around 3B by virtue of his better offense,
But nobody fields 3B like Manny. Nobody.

My wife says I take too many antacids and it's not good for me. Is there really a problem with taking them?
Heartburn is no fun, and sometimes you need to get your hands on a fire extinguisher ASAP. But if you're taking over-the-counter heartburn meds for more than a few weeks in a row, you're treating your symptoms instead of your problem.
There are three types of heartburn medications: antacids, H2 histamine blockers and proton pump inhibitors, PPIs. Antacids neutralize stomach acid, H2 blockers reduce the amount of acid your stomach produces, and the heavy-duty PPIs block the enzyme system that produces gastric acid -- reducing secretions by up to 99 percent.
They all temporarily reduce stomach acid. That seems like sweet relief, but over the long haul, this could cause big trouble for your gut. When you neutralize or turn off stomach acid, you dull the stomach's anti-microbial defense system and increase your risk of food poisoning from C. difficile, Listeria, Salmonella and other bacteria. And without enough acid, your stomach won't properly absorb nutrients like calcium, putting you at increased risk of bone fractures. Changing your acid balance also can interfere with absorption of other medications that you take regularly and can mask more serious problems, such as stomach and esophageal cancer.
Want a safer way to extinguish the flames? Cut back on salt and fat; eat more fiber (in whole grains, fruits and veggies); avoid your trigger foods, like chocolate, chili, alcohol and colas; chew sugar-free gum after meals (it represses acid reflux); and, if you're overweight, lose 10 percent of your body weight. (That may happen naturally if you follow the other suggestions.) You also might want to keep a food diary to help you identify which foods are causing problems.
If your best efforts to ease your discomfort don't work, then turn the diary over to your doctor for precise diagnosis of your problems. But chances are, if you follow our advice, you'll be able to take care of this yourself.
Health tip of the week: How to fight foot fungus
Athlete's foot fungus is a problem. Everyone from sports pros to your 3-year-old is at risk: It's highly contagious and is caught from direct contact -- from sharing shoes or walking barefoot in showers, locker rooms or around swimming pools.
The culprit is a fungus (tinea pedis) that also causes ringworm; it loves warm, damp places, like sweaty socks and sneakers, and the spaces between your toes. If you get it, you may see dry itchy patches along the bottom and sides of your feet, and red, peeling, cracked skin between your toes. Fortunately, you usually can treat it with over-the-counter antifungal preparations (if it doesn't go away after a few weeks, you may need a prescription medication) and a few smart steps:
• Wear well-ventilated shoes, and spray the insides with anti-fungal powder. Apply antifungal medication directly to your feet before you put your shoes on.
• Change socks frequently to keep feet dry. Don't wear cotton socks for exercising; they hold moisture. Get socks made with wicking material.
• Dry your feet off when you get out of the swimming pool or locker-room shower. Bring your own towel; clubs often don't wash towels in a way that kills fungus.
• Always wear flip-flops in the locker room or shower area.
Recurring battles with that fungus? Put anti-fungal creams or powders on your feet before you go into a public pool or locker room.

The Iowa Institute of Human Genetics (IIHG) offers pharmacogenomic testing for clopidogrel (Plavix®) response.
If you have ever taken prescription medications, you may have experienced some unintended effects – perhaps a medicine didn't work as expected or there were harmful side effects. You are not alone. Drugs do not work in up to half of people due to their genetic make-up.
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing is done to determine a person's genetic makeup affecting his or her response to a particular drug or class of drugs. This information makes precision medicine possible so that your healthcare provider can 'personalize' your optimal drug treatment.
Clopidogrel (Plavix®), for example, is commonly prescribed as a blood thinner to prevent heart attacks and stroke. Clopidogrel does not work properly in about 30% of patients, due to four common DNA changes in the gene CYP2C19.
The IIHG offers a simple test for these DNA variations so you can learn if clopidogrel will work for you or your patient. For more information on this test, please visit our websites for health care providers (http://www.medicine.uiowa.edu/humangenetics/cyp2c19/) and for patients (http://www.medicine.uiowa.edu/humangenetics/CYP2C19/Patients/).

The Seabrook Floodgate is part of the overhaul of the metro New Orleans hurricane levee system that Congress authorized after Hurricane Katrina. The upgraded system is designed to keep out surges caused by a so-called 100-year storm, one with a 1 percent chance of hitting in any year. The system is also designed to significantly reduce flooding from even larger storms.
Project: The new gate blocks Lake Pontchartrain water, up to 16 feet, from flowing into the Industrial Canal, as happened during Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Gustav. The project cost $165 million. It includes a 95-foot-wide navigable sector gate and two 50-foot-wide vertical lift gates that are not navigable. The gates, floodwall tie-ins and other structures in the project have an elevation of 16 feet above sea level.
Notable feature: When the gates close during hurricanes and tropical storms, the Industrial Canal and Gulf Intracoastal Waterway can store water that overtops the Lake Borgne surge barrier. Some of that water may also be directed into the Central Wetlands Unit adjacent to the Lower 9th Ward and Arabi.
Construction status: Completed.

The days of Congress drilling obscure loopholes in the Freedom of Information Act may … just may … be over. President Obama signed into law
Known as the "Open FOIA Act," the bill (S 612) requires future bills passed by Congress to specifically cite the section of the US Code containing FOIA whenever they create a new exemption to it by statute. Congress has not always done so in the past. The requirement in theory makes it impossible to sneak secrecy provisions through when nobody is watching.
The legislative language of the Open FOIA Act was included in the fiscal 2009 Homeland Security appropriations bill (HR 2892).

As children grow, they face many changes. Some are normal biological or physical changes in development, such as the "terrible twos," losing a tooth, fear of the dark, menstruation and puberty.
Other changes are imposed on children: the death of a friend or relative, moving to a new home or school, enduring a physical illness or injury, and divorce. Children need a consistent, nurturing and caring environment to successfully negotiate these changes and challenges.
Most parents have a good understanding of what constitutes normal child development. They know that bed-wetting is not serious at age 2 but can be at age 13. Temper tantrums that are tolerated in a toddler are unacceptable in an older child.
Becoming a parent is a developmental change of its own. Especially for first-time parents, there are many challenges, worries and fears, with too few guideposts.
Emotional problems are a normal and healthy part of a child's development. Dealing with these problems can be an opportunity for parents to learn about themselves and their children.
All children do not respond alike, even in similar situations, so parents with more than one child might be in for surprises. Parents must make adjustments in their responses to each child's individual temperament and personality.
Books, magazines, tapes, courses and support groups are available for guidance. We recommend that you use them, as well as your own parents, relatives and family doctor.

Businessman Bob Dever and I flew from from Philadelphia to Spokane in Washington State yesterday. on our way to Red Mountain, about two and a hour hours north, just over the Canadian border.
I know very little our Red Mountain. I know even less about Spokane, but we had an afternoon and evening to explore the city with a population at little over 200,000, before a morning drive to Red Mountain
Spokane is the home of Gonzaga University and I knew it was a big name in basketball, so Bob and I made that our first stop. We lucked out. The McCarthey Athletic Center was unlocked as workers were setting up for a women's basketball game and we got a peak at the famed arena.
The Spokane River and Spokane Falls run through the city and played a major role in the city's economic development.
Our highlight was dinner at Queen of Sheba, authentic Ethiopian Cuisine located in the in the Flour Mill, by the river.
Next Stop: Red Mountain.

|"A composite indicator 'Working conditions' for comparing European countries is constructed from data of the Third European Survey on Working Conditions. The main findings are as follows: (a) European countries differ with respect to working conditions statistically more significantly than with respect to earnings; it implies a quite accurate discrimination threshold in ranking countries with respect to working conditions, (b) working conditions and earnings positively correlate over the whole of Europe but correlate little within single countries; it indicates at the prevailing role of national determinants over professional or social specificities as contributing to the average working conditions, and (c) earnings play no essential role in subjective estimations, including job satisfaction, which mainly depends on working conditions; consequently, more attention should be paid to improving the latter. The same approach is applied to constructing a three-dimensional indicator of Working time, reflecting its aspects duration, location (abnormality), and flexibility. It is found that abnormality and flexibility compensate each other, whereas the duration is not affected by two other factors." (author's abstract)

After years of police stings, code enforcement sweeps and new rules against renting rooms by the hour, Jefferson Parish officials said trouble spot motels on Airline Drive persist in causing problems, so they are launching an effort to study and rethink property codes along the thoroughfare from Kenner to New Orleans.
The Parish Council today called for a review of Airline that could produce a new zoning scheme and other new standards designed to remake the corridor.
Council members Cynthia Lee-Sheng and Elton Lagasse, who each have stretches of Airline in their districts, sponsored the move in response to Sheriff's Office prostitution stings and property seizures at motels earlier this year.
"It came about because we were working with the Sheriff's Office on getting rid of specific hotels," Lee-Sheng said. "This was really addressing a law enforcement issue."
"We really need to relook at this whole corridor," Lee-Sheng said. "It's a huge economic resource for us."
Sheriff's detectives in January arrested employees at Travel Inn Plaza, 5733 Airline, and La Village Motel, 100 Manson Ave., for cooperating with detectives who posed as pimps and asked about letting prostitutes scout for customers in the parking lot.
In March, the Sheriff's Office seized and shut down La Village and Trade Winds Motel at 3616 Airline and arrested a husband and wife who owned the motels for dodging taxes and tolerating prostitution on their properties.
"We're looking for another tool, a legal way that we can go in there and shut these things," Lagasse said. "We're just trying to find some way to clean up Airline."
It's not the first time officials have tried to improve Airline, which was built in the 1930s and 1940s and formerly served as a major route into New Orleans and a hub for motoring tourists during the explosion in the popularity of the automobile.
It carried U.S. Highway 61 from New Orleans to Baton Rouge, where the highway continued north through Mississippi, extended into blues music lore and continued on to Minnesota.
Airline drew economic activity away from the older Jefferson Highway to the south. But soon Interstate 10 and Veterans Memorial Boulevard overshadowed both and downgraded Airline. Airline then developed a longstanding reputation as a strip of "no-tell motels."
Hoping to raise the dignity of the road, the Legislature in 1997 changed its title from "highway" to "drive" in a bill introduced by then-Rep. David Vitter, now a U.S. senator.
Jefferson Parish also imposed its commercial parkway overlay zoning designation to commercial properties along Airline, requiring enhanced landscaping, buffer spaces, lighting, parking and other rules that gradually reshape properties as they change hands and redevelop. In 2008, the parish added another rule prohibiting hourly rates at the motels.
The corridor has improved, said Ed Durabb, Jefferson Parish planning director. Refurbished shopping complexes adhere to the heightened standards for aesthetics in spots. Zephyr Field and the Saints headquarters add well-maintained features. He said economics are starting to tilt back in Airline's favor.
"Now what we're starting to see is that uses are coming back to Airline Drive to some extent, because it's cheaper" than Veterans, Durabb said.
But some of the sketchy motels stubbornly remain.
Durabb said the study could result in codes that add new criteria for the operation and upkeep of motels. Or it could call for phasing out motels altogether.
The study prompts a moratorium on new motel construction or expansion for up to 18 months while parish planners survey the stretch of Airline and devise their recommendations.
"It's a very broad-brush study in that we can do all sorts of things here," Durabb said.
The study could focus on motels or revamp the zoning along the entire stretch, perhaps creating land designations specifically created for Airline, he said.
"Ultimately private investment is what does it," when it comes to revitalizing a place, Durabb said. "You can create the climate for private investment."

Perfect for Texas
By DramaDivah
from Houston, TX
About Me Casual/ Recreational
Comments about Serfas Women's Ventilator Jersey:
I ride about 10 miles few times a week. It's really hot where I live and this shirt is perfect for keeping me cool. My only complaint is the one pocket it has is not really enough as my keys and my phone end up in the same place. However, having a pocket at all is better than none. The high neckline is great for keeping me protected from the sun though the shirt is not SPF so I use sunscreen under it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice shirt for the price. Had to alter the armholes. They were huge!
great and inexpensive
By Just a biker
from St Charles MO
See all my reviews
It fits nice without being too tight. Will be great in warmer weather.
So far no problems.
Too big
By Lcyclist
from Indianapolis
This did not fit great. I am usually a small and that was way too big overall and in the armpits. The extra small was also way too big.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Relaxed fit
By Sumersun
from Central Pennsylvania
Purchased this jersey to wear on those hot days out on the road. The jersey is light weight and appears to be breathable. However, the jersey was a lot larger than mediums I have purchased in the past. It would be great for a woman with a larger size chest.
Too large
By Chris
from Leonardtown, MD
This jersey was way too large. The medium was even baggy on my husband. And the lack of any elastic at the waist makes this a no-go. It was only $9 or so, so not even worth the trouble to return it for the $2 I would get back. This was a good example of "you get what you pay for" when looking for cheap stuff. I wish I had paid a bit extra for something that fit better. On the other hand, the shipment arrived quickly and the purchase transaction was easy. I will be a return customer of Nashbar, just not on this particular brand.
Purchased both a medium and small.
By Debbie
from Erie. Pa
I first purchased the medium and it was way to big plus the arm holes stuck out. They were not made correctly. So the medium went back then I ordered the small same problem with the arm holes so instead of sending it back (since it was so cheap) I fixed the arm holes so I could wear it.
sleeveless jersey
By Smiley4dimples
from North Jersey
I sent this product back for smaller size. I didn't like that you could see straight through on either side of my arms. Waiting for exchange.

-"That's typical Chris Neil. I had to protect that guy for three years when I was there. He'd do that and I'd have to fight all his battles for him the next time we'd play a team after he'd do something stupid like that. It doesn't surprise me. That's the way he does it. He'll do something where he knows he'll get kicked out of the game and won't have to come back and fight anybody. I've been around him long enough to know he does that. Then I'm the one who usually has to fight his battles the next time. It's typical." - Bruins forward/enforcer Brian McGratton on former Senators teammate/antagonist Chris Neil.

In response to Elwood Hardnick's Sept. 3 letter, "In Oklahoma, the law did its job," I also believe blacks are largely "undervalued, underestimated and marginalized."
However I believe the statistics on single-parent homes, school truancy, high school graduation, unwed mothers and violent crime (to name a few) point to the black community as the offending demographic. Yes, blacks are undervalued, underestimated and marginalized ... by blacks.

The search for missing teens Jason Price and Candice Ashley continues Thursday, according to investigators.
Price, 18, of Clanton and girlfriend Ashley, 15, of Autauga County have been missing since they were last seen Friday at their homes.
Autauga County sheriffs are on the lookout for the pair, noting a felony child-custody warrant has been issued against Price. Investigators believe the 2 to be in the Gatlinburg, Tennessee, or Conecuh County, Alabama, area.
Price was last known to be driving a 2002 gold, 4-door Chevrolet S-10 truck with Alabama license plate 1455S5, the Clanton Advertiser reports.
Anyone with information concerning the whereabouts of the 2 is encouraged to call the Autauga County Sheriff's Office at (334) 361-2500 or the Chilton County Sheriff's Office at (205) 755-1120.

Here at NOLA.com/Super Bowl HQ, we are doing two weeks of Recipes from Our Files featuring good things you can make for Super Bowl parties. Today's is an easily made microwave dip. If you want, keep it hot in a fondue dish or a small slow cooker.
I developed the recipe some years ago for the Chips, Dips and Salsa Cookbook I co-write with Kim MacEachern. Finding Mexican cheese is a lot easier nowadays.
The trick to this dish, for me, is to de-grease the chorizo as much as possible. I like to put the drained chorizo between paper towels to get out as much of the extra fat as possible. It will still have plenty of flavor.
Hot Cheese, Mushroom and Chorizo Dip
Makes about 3 cups
12 ounces Mexican asadero or Monterey Jack cheese, cut into chunks
6 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 cup Mexican-style chorizo, cooked, well drained
2 green onions, chopped, or 1/4 cup minced white onion
Tortilla chips for serving
Combine all ingredients in a 2-quart microwavable bowl. Heat at 70 percent power in microwave for 3 minutes. Remove and stir well. Heat again at 70 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir and check to see if cheese is melted. If not melted, continue heating at 2 minute intervals, stirring after each minute.
When all the cheese is melted, the mixture will have a uniform color. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

JOHNSTOWN - The Gloversville-Johnstown Joint Sewer Board on Wednesday reviewed the status of two upcoming sewer plant projects, estimated to cost a total of $10.8 million. One of the projects is slated to begin in November.
In his operations report, Gloversville-Johnstown Wastewater Treatment Facility engineer Tyler Masick told the board a pre-construction meeting was conducted Sept. 26 for the facility's $6.4 million upgrade project. He said the meeting was with all contractors involved.
This will be the second major project the plant has done in the past five years. The facility underwent a $10 million upgrade in 2008-09. Both upgrades are designed to help the sewage treatment plant treat increased waste discharges from the expanding Greek-yogurt plant Fage USA at the Johnstown Industrial Park, as well as other area industries.

The Leader-Herald/Michael Anich
The latest upgrade will include a new stainless-steel whey tank, as well as new engines.
Masick said sewer plant environmental attorney Mark Schachner also reviewed contracts related to the project and signed off on them.
Contracts for the project are: $3.93 million general construction - C.O. Falter Construction Corp. of Syracuse; $999,500 electrical construction - Amaha Electrical Inc. of Cohoes; $761,600 engine and electrical switchgear - Milton CAT of Clifton Park; and $195,626 heating and ventilation construction - Family Danz of Albany.
Masick said the facility today is scheduled to issue a "notice to proceed," with work on the upgrade expected to start in November.
"We are getting things moving along on that [project]," he said.
The facility's other major infrastructure undertaking is an estimated $4.4 million trunk line project. Work on that will be upcoming involving a first phase of improvement and replacement on the main sewer pipeline. Initial work involves a $435,000 contract with Precision Industrial Maintenance Inc. of Schenectady.
The company will do work on the facility's 50-year-old main trunk line between the two cities. The line runs 4 miles from Harrison Street in Gloversville to the sewage treatment plant on Union Avenue in Johnstown.
Masick displayed for the board some of the fiberglass lined replacement piping the state Department of Transportation uses that will be similar to what will be used for this project. He said the facility has recently secured easements for right-of-way access, and lining material for the project.
Facility consultant George Bevington said the project will begin with a section on West Main Street in Johnstown.
The board approved a $17,000 contract amendment with Precision Industrial Maintenance Inc.
