Skip to comments.Is this an alien skull? Mystery of giant-headed mummy found in Peru
Posted on 11/19/2011 8:07:52 AM PST by Perdogg
A mummified elongated skull found in Peru could finally prove the existence of aliens. The strangely shaped head - almost as big as its 50cm (20in) body - has baffled anthropologists. It was one of two sets of remains found in the city of Andahuaylillas in the southern province of Quispicanchi.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
Naw, probably just someone who was hydrocephalic.
Of course it's not an alien's skull. He's still alive and living in the White House.
Remains of T. Boone Pickens..his head exploded after the Cowboys lost last night..
This is so stupid. A simple DNA test will debunk this.
From the photographs, the skull bone plates are not that of a hydro sufferer. Something else at work here. Notice also the teeth ...
The Current FReepathon Pays For The Current Quarters Expenses?
yes this is stupid , everyone knows when aliens die they melt
Could be but the teeth that are left are pretty strange......Obviously doesn't have the same number of teeth that a normal skull would have.. Maybe it's a monkey
He wasn't found with a banjo was he?
Wrong end of the horse.
In conclusion, if a search of the world's fine museums is done, many similar skeletons and 'giants' as tall as 16 feet tall will be found.
Why are the museums hiding these atypical humanoids from academic examination? Are they fakes, are they carnival freaks?
Big Bulging Brains...
Probably Hydrocephalus combined with some sort of binding ritual.
Because they might seem to support certain religious contentions regarding the early history of mankind. Can't have that.
What huge eyes you have!
Must be the Big Bad Wolf.
Yes, it is
Please take into consideration the lack of a true frontal lobe. These humanoid skeletons would be either extremely docile, or beserkers. What does the audience think of a creature that lacks a normal frontal lobe?

Maybe it's related to the starchild skull:
Could be—
—if the owner thereof was not a Peruvian citizen—
That made me laugh so much I had to read it out loud to my husband.
Not sure, but I think I dated her in college...
Looks like an unfortunate birth defect or disease coupled with skull banding. Occam's razor and all that...
The word Giant appears 8 times: 2Sa 21:18 And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Saph, which was of the sons of the giant.
But you say this is in Peru, not the Holy Land. Just south of Albuquerque NM is a large stone dated some 3,000 years old, it has on it the Ten Commandments, written in Hebrew.
LOL! Touche!
thanks for your post. I did not know about the Los Lunas stone. here is some info on it for others.
As for the skull, testing for human DNA should be easy as there is plenty of material extant.
My, what big teeth you have grandma!
Sounds like the plot for the last Indiana Jones Movie.
That guy cracks me up.
Doesn't matter what the mystery, for him the answer is "alien astronauts".
I don't believe he is really serious. He can't be.
The stone can be dated, reasonably, but the engraving cannot. Mormons have tried to make a similar claim regarding personal use decalogue stones found in Ohio near an Indian burial mound. The truth is radically different from the LDS inc explanation, but they continue to make their outrageous claims, even teaching the lie as fact in BYU classes.
Oh come on, they really are of different species.
Thanks for that link. The estimate of 500-1500 years makes sense if we assume 500 years.
Humanoid perhaps, but not human. No pre-frontal lobes, and the eye sockets are far too large. The skull measurement is also much larger than a homo sapiens.
I was at the game; and would be happy to have helped cause that!
maybe so. don't know how old or who wrote the thing. Just interesting history.
Great game..I was watching it...super that the the Cyclones finally had a BIG win in front of the home crowd..
How long did the crowd stay after the game....and what's with singing "Sweet Caroline"..is that a tradition?
In before the Paul Begala pic.
On the other side, all of us truly feel for the Okla State people after the loss of their coach. Woman's basketball is a big thing for Iowa State; so a special empathy for them.
The Sweet Caroline thing started at our woman's BB games a few years ago. Honestly not sure how it started!

When people consider marinades, they often give chicken, steaks and shrimp long soaks in tomato, citrus, beer and wine mixtures. I've got another way, and it's a perfect fit for summer. Instead of soaks, I put my steaks into quick savory "saunas" on the outdoor grill. All you need is a little imagination, a few sheets of aluminum foil and about 30 minutes in front of the fire. This week, a couple of small loin ...

Syracuse, NY -- Residents of Syracuse's North Side may wake up to dirty water, or no water at all, according to city Water Department officials.
A water main break at 10:45 p.m. on Seventh North Street near the city line affected service to about 5,000 people, officials said. Repairs were expected to take until 4 a.m., at the earliest, or noon, at the latest.
The affected area stretches from Wadsworth Street to the east, Lodi Street to the west, the city line to the north and Danforth Street to the south, officials said.

A motorcyclist was killed in a two-vehicle accident Saturday night at the Interstate 10-Interstate 59 interchange near Slidell.
Windell R. Stacy, 41, of Moss Point, Miss., was killed in the accident around 7:30 p.m. as he was traveling eastbound on I-10 on his 2006 Suzuki motorcycle, Louisiana State Police reported.
Trooper Louis Calato, Troop L spokesman, said Stacy failed to negotiate a curve near where I-10 divides into I-10 east, Interstate 12 and I-59. Stacy lost control of his vehicle and was thrown near the right shoulder, where he was struck by a passing car, Calato said.
Gladys G. Tart, 56, of Gulfport, Miss., was driving her 2006 Chevrolet Malibu in the same direction as Stacy. She swerved to avoid the fallen motorcycle, but did not see Stacy, who was dressed in black, Calato said.
Stacy was pronounced dead at the scene by Nick Culotta of the St. Tammany Parish Coroner's Office. A blood sample was taken to see if drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash. Stacy was wearing a helmet, Calato said.
Tart submitted to a chemical test and it indicated no blood alcohol content. Neither she nor her two passengers were injured in the accident.

The Joe Bros have definitely been making the rounds in NYC lately. Last week we saw brothers Kevin and Joe Jonas out for lunch at Patsis and today Nick and Joe sat down for a bite.
Nick is currently starring on Broadway in 'How To Succeed In Business….' and while older brother Kevin has just signed on with his wife Danielle to star in his own reality show, middle brother Joe is busy working on his solo career.
Nick and Joe dined with a friend at Peels in NYC before being joined by British host and presenter Alexa Chung. The boys have definitely grown up from their time on Hannah Montana!

One of the main questions on tonight's show involved "How much does X help my chess?" where X was Chess960, Correspondence Chess, or something else.
My first reaction is that everything that is "chess work" helps your chess, but the real question is, "How much does it help?" A practice that may gain you 1 rating point for each 100 hours of work helps your chess, but that's fairly low return per unit time.
Chess ability consists of numerous skills, many which support your overall analytical skill. So any activity X that helps you develop one or more of those skills is going to be helpful. For example, let's suppose that correspondence chess is just like your "help" target (let's say slow chess) with three main exceptions:
Each of these has some affect on your regular play. In a "real-time" game you are not allowed to look up your openings, but correspondence rules have the benefit of helping you learn openings during the game. In a real-time game you can't move the pieces, so that forces you to practice visualization. In a correspondence game you have much more time, so your criticality and time management skills are not stressed or tested as much. The net result is that correspondence chess is just different, and of course should help your slow chess, but certainly not as much in the areas (like visualization or time management) where the rules are laxed. However, this is offset by benefits of correspondence chess, such as superior opening preparation and more meticulous, time-consuming analysis. The net result is that is certainly won't hurt and probably will help quite a bit. Besides, who's to say that activity X is being done to help your "regular" chess at all? For example, if correspondence chess is fun, then that is one sufficient end goal in itself.
We could perform this analysis on Chess960 (openings are not "book" but otherwise the other practices are identical so the benefits are obvious) or any other chess activity.
One chess activity I like to support as helpful are problems where you don't have to find "good" moves like "play and win" or "play and mate" or "play and mate in 2". For example, in the following Jeff Coakley puzzle you are asked to switch ANY two pieces on the board and leave Black in a legal checkmate (meaning, for example, no pawns of either color are allowed to be switched onto the 1st or 8th ranks):
(Answer at the bottom of the column)
I have had many protest "This kind of problem can't help your chess!" Well, it is certainly possible that this kind of problem can't help someone's chess (especially if they fight it so that it doesn't do them any good). However, there are several aspects of this problem which are focused on helping many of those skills that DO help your chess, such as visualization (you should attempt to switch the pieces in your head), tactical recognition (is it checkmate?), rules and deductive logic (that switch is checkmate, but why is the resultant position not legal?), board vision (seeing what the pieces are doing throughout the board), and others.
I would never tell you to stop doing "White to play and win problems" and take up all board vision problems or retrograde or (in this case) Switcheroos, but to occastionally augment your chess thinking with these types of clever problems can be both rewarding and fun. And if something in chess is not fun, then my claim is that even if it is good for you, you can't keep doing it for very long. After all, unlike school subjects where you might have to do something not fun just to get promoted, chess is a hobby where if the work is not fun, the incentive to keep doing it can diminish fairly quickly.
There were many other subjects discussed on the show. One question involved the etiquette of shaking hands after a loss (a good question since I am a USCF Senior TD and it does not involve openings!). My first answer was that shaking hands after any internet game was impossible (except "shake hands"). I went on to say that it is sportsmanlike to shake hands before the game starts and after the game is over, but you should never put out your hand offering a handshake when you offer a draw. The word for that is "presumptuous", meaning you are putting your opponent in the position where you are expecting him to be polite and shake your hand when, in fact, he is under no obligation to accept your draw offer. Moreover, shaking hands explicitly has no "force" under US Chess Federation rules. If you want to accept a draw offer, you have to do it verbally. If for some reason you shake your opponent's hand, that does not end the game, a rule wisely put in place to avoid non-verbal misunderstandings.
If you want to resign, you should say "I resign" or purposely turn over your king. Many players unilaterally stop their clock and offer a handshake, which is technically not legal, but universally recognized (since the only other reason to unilaterally stop the clock is to get the TD and make a claim or answer a question). A few years ago I suggested to the USCF Rules Committee that they make stopping the clock and offering a handshake as a legal way to resign (or at least then they should discourage it), but the consensus was that this would open a can of worms, so this method of resigning continues "under the table" so to speak. But if your opponent does stop the clock and offer a handshake and you are not sure, you are certainly within your rights to ask him if he is resigning. In this situation, one student did ask his opponent if he (the opponent) was resigning several years ago and his opponent understandably but unwisely overreacted and yelled at him "Of course I am resigning! What do you think I would do in this position?!"
Finally, there are rare cases where not shaking hands after a game might be understandable. For example, your opponent might be harassing you throughout the game or outright cheating (of course you should have gotten the TD, but that is another story). Or he might clearly have a cold, so waving good-bye might be prudent. So, once in a blue moon, not shaking hands might be forgiven, but that's certainly the exception and not the rule. And, of course, there is no RULE forcing you to shake hands.
The answer to the Jeff Coakley "Switcheroo" problem is to switch the black king on g8 with the white knight on g5. Then White has checkmated with a legal move like Qd2#. The key is that the switched knight on g8 is guarding the key square f6. Other moves don't work. For example, if you switch the white queen from d2 with the black pawn on h7 the black king is checkmated, but both kings are in check, so not only is the checkmate illegal, so is the entire position.
By the way, I consider Jeff Coakley one of the really excellent chess authors in North America, and his books are often very unwisely relegated to the beginners sections in chess book stores. If you think they are easy, pick up his superb "Winning Chess Exercises for Kids" someday and try those puzzles. They are certainly not for beginners; it is one of the very best intermediate+ puzzle books every published.
BTW anyone living in a GMT or similar time zone looking for slow chess games should consider joining my group "Slow chess European time zones" it's a friendly group who meet on Mondays 7PM GMT for slow chess.
I have his Improving Chess Thinker book! ^_^
Ah! I thought you were talking about the Légal Mate while you were just talking about a legal checkmate. No wonder your puzzle looked hard.
Frank124c: this is hilarious !!
I attended a local tounament where two players, both NMs were matched against each other. One of them was late.. and the first gentleman to sit down became agitated at this.. and wasn't sure how to set the clock to adjust for this (I think he didn't start the clocks and wanted to adjust for the lateness). After calling for the TD the other guy (after arriving) became irrited himself. When the clocks were finally configured in an acceptable manner and started the guy who was late reached out his hand and the first player refused to shake hands, offended at his lateness and arguing with the TD. The second player refused to play unless the first guy shook hands and since that's not mandatory he got up, left the table and the tournament. The kicker is both guys were in their 60s/70s. What a way to behave.
I have a great chess problem for all of you even more boring than the one above. Take all of the pieces put them in random order and find a girl and mate her on the floor while someone tries to solve your problem, whatever that was.
El Guaro: You can only make ONE switch of two pieces. So if you switch the pawn on f7 with the knight on c3 Black is not even in check. If instead you switch the pawn on h7 with the pawn on f3 then Black has ...Kg8. But you can't make two separate switches of four total pieces.
Blueblacklenny: Not sure what you meant by "v8". The answer was to switch the black king on g8 with the knight on g5 (to g8). The position must be legal and it is since the knight could easily have gotten to g8 via f6,h6 or even e7 before the black bishop was there.
I switched the pawn on f7 with the knight on c3 and the pawn on h8 with the pawn on f3 and it's checkmate, too. Is that right?
The chess community is too hung up with being polite to everyone. Shaking hands should be replaced with a fist bump anyways

Let the trilogy begin.
Karr and St. Augustine kick off Friday one of the most compelling sets of high school football games ever played among New Orleans Metro area teams.
Curtis is the other member of this three-team Clash of the Titans round robin that will see each nationally-ranked program meet one another during the next three weeks.
Batting leadoff is Karr, 1-0, versus St. Augustine, 1-0, at 7 p.m. at Tad Gormley Stadium in a game scheduled to be broadcast live by Cox Sports Television (Cox Cable channels 37, 1037 HD).
The game features several of the nation's top schoolboy prospects and represents a rematch of last year's Class 4A state semifinals in which Karr defeated St. Augustine, 28-12, en route to winning a state championship and a 14-0 finish.
Storylines abound, with St. Augustine tailback Leonard Fournette attempting to complete his career with an undefeated season and a state championship that eluded him for three years.
Karr quarterback Devante' "Speedy'' Noil and defensive end Gerald Willis are two other of the most prized recruits in the nation participating.
"It's one of the biggest games in the city,'' Fournette said. "Two great teams, two great opponents are going to go at it and show the city why both teams have some of the best players in the area.
"The game is kind of bigger than last year because we lost to them. So we're pretty much the underdog in this fight. We really feel like we're the underdogs.''
St. Aug is ranked No. 27 nationally by Rivals.com, No. 32 by Fox Sports and No. 45 by USA Today in addition to being ranked No. 2 in the state in Class 5A and in the New Orleans Metro rankings by NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune.
Karr is ranked No. 5 by Rivals and MaxPreps.com and No. 23 by USA Today in addition to being top-ranked in the state in Class 4A and in the Metro rankings.
Curtis joins the mix in Week 4 with a Thursday Sept. 26 trip to Behrman Stadium to face Karr followed one week later by an Oct. 4 game against St. Augustine at Gormley.
The Cougars own not only one of the top state's top play-makers in Noil, but also an elite defense.
"To us, it's not really going to be a big game, but it is going to have some high intensity,'' Karr linebacker Donnie Alexander, a LSU commit, said. "For the defense, we're coming in with the mindset that we're locking (the running game) up and keeping (plays) in the backfield. We feel like if we can do that and they have to go to their passing game, the game is over.''
Interestingly, St. Aug's Toi Jackson, a three-year starter at quarterback, passed for 228 yards and four touchdowns in a 47-12 season-opening victory against McDonogh 35. Jackson completed nine of 10 attempts in the first half and 16 of 22 overall, with three touchdowns going to wide receivers Stanley Morgan (two) and Marlon Watts, plus a 49-yard screen to running back Lanard Fournette.
Jackson certainly benefited from Fournette's early impact. St. Aug's senior tailback was stopped for a 4-yard loss on his first carry and then rushed for 163 on his next and final three attempts that included touchdown bolts of 65 and 79 yards that ignited the Knights to a commanding 40-6 halftime advantage.
"We went to the game,'' Alexander said. "We definitely have a different mindset. Other teams are afraid to tackle (Fournette). We're heartless on defense. We're not afraid to tackle him. So people need to watch out when they play us.''
"The defensive line and linebackers here are going to shut (the run) down and they're going to have to pass the ball,'' Karr cornerback Juwan Offray, who is likely to cover Morgan throughout, said. "We're going to be on lock down.''
Karr opened with a 34-12 victory at state-ranked St. Paul's, despite playing the first quarter without Noil, Willis or defensive tackle Joyan Williams. All three were disciplined for "violation of team rules,'' Coach Nathaniel Jones said.
Noil and Willis are expected to be available for St. Augustine, but Williams' status is uncertain.
"We have a huge amount of respect for St. Augustine and their program,'' Karr Coach Nathaniel Jones said. "Leonard Fournette obviously is an outstanding player. That goes without saying. He's a handful. Their quarterback makes plays and you can see he's a leader. I think a lot of him.
"We have to get a lot better,'' Jones added. "We came out firing on all cylinders, then we got relaxed and sloppy. We have to continue to focus throughout the duration of the game. I thought we played hard, but sometimes we weren't focused.
In regards to St. Augustine, Jones said, "They pose a lot of problems for our defense. But we look forward to the game. You look forward to playing in games like these.''
"Our main thing is we have to play smart, play fast and play physical,'' Jackson said. "We have to get the ball in our playmakers' hands and score touchdowns. This is a big game, but this is what we want and we're up for the challenge.''
"I think it's very simple,'' St. Aug safety Blaise Brown, who had two interceptions against McDonogh 35, said. "We've got to keep them out of the end zone and get the ball to our offense because our offense scores points when they get the ball.''
"Karr is a solid group defensively,'' St. Augustine Coach Cyril Crutchfield said. "What makes them go is that front seven. I don't think I've seen a better front seven than the one at Karr. They're physical and they run to the ball. They're going to wreak havoc.
"But we feel like our strength goes up against their strength. The heart and soul of their team is their defense and the heart and soul of our team is our offense. Now, do I like it that way? No.
"But I do think that the team that executes the best is the one that's going to win. It's going to come down to who is the most disciplined and who executes. And we've got to stop Speedy. We have to play fundamentally sound and we've got to find ways to get off of the field.''

Olympic High School voluntarily goes into lockdown
Olympic High School went into voluntarily lockdown after a secondhand report of shots being fired behind the school this morning.
Kitsap County Sheriff's Deputy Scott Wilson said the high school reported information provided to administrators regarding two men walking behind the school. According to the reporting party, one was carrying a rifle. Wilson noted there was a 15-minute delay between the school receiving the information and reporting it to the department.
The lockdown started at 11:25 a.m. and ended at 12:32 p.m., according to David Beil, spokesman for the Central Kitsap School District.
A search of the area turned up nothing, Wilson said.
A deputy went to the school to notify administrators that there were no suspects in custody. Wilson said he did not want to speculate further about the incident and no other details were released.
"We can only do so much if nothing is actively happening," he said.
The school is located in Bremerton, but is part of the Central Kitsap School District. According to Beil, the lockdown was just "a precautionary measure" and nothing happened on the actual campus, he said.
"Safety of staff and students is the first priority," he said.

KALAMAZOO, MI -- Word travels like wildfire on Facebook, and Kalamazoo County Animal Services now uses that aspect of the social network to locate the owners of wandering pets.
Beth Blacken, customer service representative for the county animal shelter, said Facebook helped find an owner Wednesday, June 11, when officers picked up a dog running loose, brought it back to the shelter, and discovered that the dog's microchip wasn't registered with the owner.
When Blacken contacted the adoption agency the chip traced back to, and emailed a photo of the dog, that facility posted the dog's photo on its own Facebook page. Its owner saw it and has made arrangements to come to the shelter today.
Julie Barber, customer service representative for the county animal shelter, said "Facebook is great. A couple of months ago we partnered with another Facebook page, Kalamazoo Area Lost Pets, and we share information. We have made match after match after match – the information gets out there so much faster."
Barber said the system worked well last week when Kalamazoo Township police found a dog after it had been struck by a car. Animal Services officers picked up the injured animal and brought it to the shelter for initial treatment.
It had no identifying microchip or collar, so staff at Kalamazoo County Animal Services posted a notice on Facebook.
"We threw his picture up, " Barber said, "and within four hours, through sharing, a relative of the owner had been found. She notified the owner."
Barber said posting the information on Facebook helps reduce the number of stray animals coming into the shelter because people recognize their lost pets and contact the finders directly.
The department also uses the page to post safety information, such as the recent reminder not to leave pets unattended in cars during the summer.
When Brandi Engel found two dogs in her yard on Gull Road last weekend, she immediately posted their photo on the county's Facebook page.
"I haven't yet tracked down the owners yet," she said Wednesday, but she is still hopeful she will be able to help them be found.
"I had put them in my garage, and left the door open a bit so they wouldn't get too hot. The pushed down gate and got out," she said.
But she quickly heard from the fellow who found them at a paper mill on Gull Road-- who had seen her post of Facebook.
"He contacted me and said he had them, but he was not sure how long he could keep keep them. She left her original posting and photo on the Facebook page so she could pass along that message, she said.
She has confidence in that system of connecting lost animals with their owners, she said, because she has seen it work many times. And, shortly after her posting the message had already been shared more than 70 times, she said.
"I think it actually works very efficiently," she said.
You hear a lot of negativity about Facebook, but look what it's done," Blacken said. "It's reuniting lost pets and owners."

Find Restaurants in Florida
Select a city in Florida
A tropical peninsula extending into the warm waters of the Gulf can only mean great seafood and luscious fruits. Florida restaurants serve outstanding meals made from both items. All along the beautiful Florida coast, boats bring in fresh seafood captures every day. You can dine on redfish less than 30 minutes after watching the chef pull it from the cooler, and the mango salsa topping is made with diced mangoes grown locally in the Florida sunshine. Shrimp from the warm waters of the Gulf are so much larger than their East Coast counterparts that its hard to believe they are the same thing. The flavors of Cuba mingle with the flavors of Florida, and Key lime pies dont get any more authentic than the ones served in the Florida Keys.

Arianna appeared on Dylan Ratigan's MSNBC show Friday to discuss the dire economic landscape facing President Obama -- and, this November, endangered congressional Democrats -- and to explain some key points outlined in her new book, "Third World America."
"The conclusion that I reached after writing this book and traveling around the country is that there is an intersection between the political and the personal," she said. "I call it 'hope 2.0.' If 'hope' was, 'we're going to elect Barack Obama, we're going to elect Democrats and then we can sit back and they're going to fix everything,' 'hope 2.0' is the recognition that democracy is not a spectator sport. We need to be involved, we need to be vigilant, and we also need to take steps in our own communities which are independent of government."
Those steps include offering -- and accepting -- external support to help overcome the negative psychological impact of hardships like long-term unemployment. "We need to tap into our own resilience and our own personal strength," Arianna said, adding later that people from all walks of life need to work on "giving back" to society.
Other critical goals, she said, include "building up people's financial literacy" on everything from mortgages to credit card contracts, as companies too often take advantage of consumers making uneducated decisions.

Our program requires applicants to observe in at least two nuclear medicine departments prior to the first interview. Many nuclear medicine departments are happy to welcome potential applicants as observers, so long as they are scheduled in advance and appropriate rules are followed. Three hours is about the maximum time for a single observation.
One of the observations must be with a nuclear medicine department that is a clinical site for the Bellevue College Nuclear Medicine Technology program. Contact information for these sites is listed below and is also included in the Download Observation Form. If you are not living in the Puget Sound or Southeast Washington regions, this observation can be done in conjunction with the second interview. Observations prior to the first interview may be done in your local area.
The purpose of the observations is for you to gain a good understanding of the job of a nuclear medicine technologist. You should pay attention to all aspects of the job, ask questions, and make notes as needed. The observation at the program clinical site is also part of the interview evaluation, in that your behavior during the observation is included in the decision on acceptance into the program. Expectations for the observations include appropriate dress (no jeans, no open-toed shoes), no use of cell phones, and maintenance of confidentiality regarding patient information.
Many hospitals require documentation of immunizations and a background check, even for a short observation. In order to be ready for observations, we recommend that you have documentation of:
- TB tests (2 within the last 12 months)
- Tdap vaccine
- MMR vaccine or positive titers
- Varicella vaccine or positive titers
- current year flu shot
More detailed information can be found on our Immunization Requirement page. In addition, a background check may be required. You can obtain a Washington State Patrol background check for $10.00 at https://fortress.wa.gov/wsp/watch/.
As you find old records and obtain new vaccines & titers, please make electronic copies (.pdf or .jpg) and save them for future reference. If you would like to observe at Good Samaritan Hospital, you will need to send electronic documents (the list above and the WSP background check in a single e-mail transmission) to the program before arranging the observation.

Oak Harbor, Coupeville library volunteers receive President's Service Awards
The President's Volunteer Service Award was presented to 49 Sno-Isle Libraries volunteers for service in the 2011 calendar year.
From Oak Harbor were Shirley Roullard and Thomas Frederick, and from Coupeville were Suzanne Ashworth, Jerry Case and Christina Hilkey.
"The President's Council on Service and Civic Participation created the Volunteer Service Award
program as a way to recognize volunteers who demonstrate a high level of commitment over a one-year period," said Sno-Isle Libraries Director Jonalyn Woolf-Ivory in a press release.
The volunteers were honored at a ceremony and celebration held at the Sno-Isle Libraries Service Center in Marysville on Saturday, April 14.
Oak Harbor volunteers Roullard and Frederick received Bronze Service Awards, meaning they volunteered more than 100 hours of time at the library last year.
Frederick read shelves, making sure the books were in order on the shelves, and put holds on the hold shelves for customer pick-up.
Roullard performed those tasks, as well as volunteering to help with the children's film series during the summer reading program. She also volunteered this year during the Women's History Month Film Festival.
The Oak Harbor Library has about 50 active volunteers throughout the year.
The Coupeville Library has over 60 active volunteers who work a minimum of 24 to 28 scheduled hours every week.
Case began serving the library as docent. He conducted tours for customers and visitors, sharing information about the library's history as well as interesting facts about the new building. As the need for docents declined, his service now focuses on making sure library materials are in order on shelves and he provides administrative assistance as requested.
Case donated 120 hours in 2011, earning a Bronze Service Award.
Ashworth is a two-time winner of this award. She searches for materials requested by Sno-Isle Libraries customers, shelves requests for Coupeville customers, helps keep library materials in order on the shelves and provides administrative support for programs.
Ashworth donated 104.5 hours in 2011, earning a Bronze Service Award.
Christina Hilkey is also a two-time winner of this award. Hilkey searches for materials requested by Sno-Isle Libraries customers, shelves requests for Coupeville customers, helps keep library materials in order on the shelves and provides administrative support for programs.
She donated 231.5 hours in 2011, earning a Silver Service Award for donating more than 250 hours.
Volunteers do work that is essential to the daily running of the library, and library staff relies heavily on the knowledgeable, reliable and dedicated corps of volunteers who fill those hours day after day, according to a press release.
For information about volunteering, call the Oak Harbor Library at 675-5115 or the Coupeville Library at 678-4911, or visit www.sno-isle.org.

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
I see, diamond flooded demons, Lamborghini angels
Halos down with the doors flapping when they came through
Windows up, system bumping, you the one they sang to
Same two, who said they the ones you should send your thanks through
Pockets full of blessings, they can sanctify and saint you
You can hear them revving/reverend up in heaven now, can't you?
Sandals made of chrome, his soul made of leather
An engine full of sinning and candy painted feathers
The sound of the motor only revving/reverend you confess to
I see this all in the eyes of the girl I'm next to
I asked her "Where we going?" and she just told me "Pleasure"
Hands on the wheel and her heels on the acceler-
-rator, told her wait up, she kept going like et cetera
Or like a broken record, we've come too far to just wheel it back selector
So we going ride forever, forever, forever, forever, forever
It's that Dirty Money...
Came from heaven just to sing a song for you...
To the rhythm of my love for you, and now it's beatin slow
And you know, this the ennnnd of the road
When I sing that slow song for you...
And love was nothin but another gun for you ('nother gun for you..)
And I would hide it in my helpless soul
I'm not afraid to go down the road where we go
I don't know, you can hear 'em callin, don't you?
When the angels call like..
A struggle between Heaven and Hell.

Miss Susan!October 29th 2011 8:41 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 6 people already have ]
Mom went to work with the police colts at Keeneland today and got to see Miss Susan - the person who rescued me on the road last winter. She showed Miss Susan my pictures and told her how to see me on catster. I hope she will come visit my page! Miss Susan is so glad for all my wonderful friends. Mom told her all about Roo and how he gave me courage back then. Seems so long ago now! As for eating, I've been munching on kitten chow, not as well as the first day, but I am eating it better than my usual food. I know I miss my brother Linus. I want him to come home and I don't know why he isn't here. Mom tells me it is going to be okay. I hope so.
Kitten Chow!October 27th 2011 5:15 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 5 people already have ]
Yep, Mom went and bought kitten chow and I ate it! I think I actually inhaled it. Gobbled it up. Mom is relieved that I ate at last (been like four days I was just nibbling bits and running away). Not sure now why I stopped eating everything else, but I'll get kitten chow till we can figure it out. I curled up beside mom, put my paw on her arm just now and did a little head bonk. Gonna curl and up sleep beside her. ZZZZZZZ.

With so much goin' on, Mom doesn't really want any more problems right now, but my humanz is noticin' that I'm not eating much lately. I go down to the food bowl, sniff it, and run away. I spends all my time sitting on top of my tower lookin' out the window. Mom doesn't wanna put too much peeplz thots to kitties, but she's wonderin' if I am missin' my play buddy, Linus.

DOG!!!September 26th 2011 1:38 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 11 people already have ]
Why do these things always happen at night? Well, almost night. 6:00am - that's pretty much night, still dark outside! This morning was not like other mornings. Mom got up cause her cell phone called her. It only calls for one reason (cept with peeplz callin'). Tornado! Sure 'nuff. She goes bangin' on the doors to bedrooms, wakin' up the folk an' we kitties hear bad rain and wind comin'. Guess I'm old enough now, cause I headed for the basement just as Steph picked up mama Lucy. Mom opened the window to the porch and Lottie comes flin' in - I mean really flyin' like I never seen a cat fly! We just get downstairs an' Mom gets a real phone call. Jonny (Siobhan's almost hubby) livin' across the street gots no cellar or fraidy-hole. Mom runs back up and opens the front door. Seconds later she comes back down, Jonny comes down - an' then wez all smell it. DOG! Lottie got all blowed up like a porcupine. Tanna, Jonny's german shepherd follows him down into the basement. Now cats is runnin' everywhere! Lottie ran back upstairs, don't know where Lucy and Milo went cause I was climbin' into da ceiling. Linus just sat there and glared at Tanna. Guess he scared her cause Tanna promptly relieved herself on the floor. Guess dogs don't use litter boxes much. After a while the rain and the wind all go away an' life goes back to normal. Mom picked me up and rubbed my head cause I was still scared. She told me that Tanna's gonna be family soon an' that she won't hurt me. Says someday we may be friends. Hummmmm, don't think so, but I purred for Mom anyway.
Mom (Covering Miranda's Ears)September 24th 2011 5:01 pm
[ Leave A Comment | 10 people already have ]
Mom talking: Miranda has her first birthday next week. I'd like to get something fun and also useful. Miranda likes to climb, the higher the better. The problem is some of the places she climbs to aren't safe for a kitty with weak front legs to jump from. I have been thinking that if I got her a climbing tower maybe she'd climb there instead. But pricing them right now we can't afford one. Does anyone know of someone wanting to sell one at a good price?

During the last three days of my life, I've basically done three things:
Eat, drink and write about Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers.
Since you probably don't care about my dietary habits and certainly don't wonder how many glasses of water I've downed, here's the latest in the Rivers saga.
1. Jason Terry is convinced Rivers will come back. While admitting during an interview with the Boston Herald that whatever Rivers is considering "is his business," Terry sounded like he'd be shocked to have a new coach next season.
"There's no question in my mind that he'll be back," said Terry, whose positive thinking last season led to a tattoo of the Celtics logo spinning an NBA championship trophy on its finger.
Terry said he hasn't spoken to Rivers about anything "personal," but the two have discussed next season and what JET needs to do in preparation for it.
2. The Herald reported that president of basketball operations Danny Ainge "is said to still believe that Rivers is coming back," but is being "careful to give (Rivers) space."
In the same story, it's noted that Ainge understands Rivers is intrigued by the Clippers opening and is "committed to securing as much leverage as possible in the form of a trade if Rivers wants to move on."
But one prominent agent predicted Rivers won't coach anywhere next season.
"I think he's going to end up broadcasting," the agent told the Herald. "That just seems to make the most sense for him right now. Get away from it for a while."
Keep in mind: Rivers still has three years and $21 million on his Celtics contract, which reportedly holds a particularly binding non-compete clause that could give Ainge all the leverage he wants in negotiations. And Ainge doesn't just want earthly objects as compensation. He also wants the moon, several stars and a vacation home on Jupiter.
3. According to ESPN's Marc Stein, Rivers, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett all want to migrate to the Clippers if they can't continue as a trio in Boston. Dislike Rivers for lacking Celtics loyalty during this apparent Clippers flirtation if you want, but it's actually romantic (in basketball terms) that he might be doing this all so he can guide his beloved stars into a few more shootouts. It'd be pretty cool on some levels for the three to chase another championship next season, after their expiration date already arrived in Boston.
In case you were wondering how an actual deal might unfold should it ultimately happen, ESPN Los Angeles looked into what type of arrangements would work under the salary cap. In the same story, Arash Markazi reported: "The Clippers' plan is to someway, somehow pry Doc Rivers, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce from the Celtics and hope that the trio, combined with Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, can get the Clippers their first NBA title."
4. As Rivers' indecision continues, the Clippers' continue to interview qualified coaches who aren't under contract to another team. Lionel Hollins had a second interview Friday, which reportedly went quite well for all parties involved.
The Clippers have also interviewed Brian Shaw and Byron Scott, and reportedly want to set up a face-to-face meeting with Nate McMillan. It's said they're not very interested in George Karl, who was rewarded with his firing weeks after winning Coach of the Year.
It's expected that Rivers' decision will become known soon. For now, brace yourself to hear quite a bit about the Los Angeles Clippers.

Long Island, NY – One on One Goaltending Academy, a division of Dynamic Lacrosse Training, is excited to announce its 2014 training dates for the remainder of the winter as well as spring and summer.
This year's goaltending academy offerings will span from January through November.
• After-School Winter Workouts|January 6-February 3|Coastal Sports|Hauppauge, NY
• Spring Goaltending Academy|February 23-March 23|LI Sports Hub|Syosset, NY
• Spring Goaltending Academy GC|March 15-16|TBD|Mobile, AL
• Summer Goaltending Camp|July 21-24|Stony Brook University|Stony Brook, NY
Getting quality coaching for goaltenders can be a problem. The fact is, most coaches do not have goaltending backgrounds and the player usually gets misdirected, or in most cases, left out as a result. Lacrosse camps that cater to over 300 lacrosse players do not give goaltenders the tools and individual attention necessary to take your game to the next level. Jimmy Mulé and Sal Locascio created the One-on-One Goaltending Academy in 2000 to address this tremendous need. Both of One on One's founders posses unmatched lacrosse pedigrees. Coach Locascio (2004) and Coach Mulé (2010) have both been named MLL Coaches of the Year. In addition, Coach Locascio was a goaltender on Team USA 3x and was a 4x First-Team All-America. In recent years, One on One has added 2x MLL Goaltender of the Year, Drew Adams and Northwestern 3x NCAA National Champion Darby Barrie.
Over the past 13 years, One on One has tutored some of the best goalies in the game today including Adam Ghitelman (UVA/Charlotte Hounds), Sean Brady (Stony Brook/NY Lizards) and Joe Marra (Fairfield/Charlotte Hounds). More recent alumni NCAA commits include Dan Marino (UVA), Jacob Giacalone (Johns Hopkins), Jack Zullo (Notre Dame) and Bobby Casey (Hofstra).
To set up a One on One Goaltending Academy in your area, please contact George Breres at Dynamic Lacrosse Training at 631.423.4170 or email email@example.com.
About One on One Goaltending Academy
One on One Goaltending Academy was founded in 2000 by Jimmy Mulé and Sal Locascio as a way to focus their knowledge of building young athletes into great goaltenders. The Academy has grown to over 200 campers annually and has branched to other states such as Connecticut, Alabama, Ohio and Pennsylvania. For more information on our goaltending, please visit www.dynamiclacrosse.com/1-on-1-goaltending.
About DLT
Dynamic Lacrosse was founded in 2007 by Jimmy Mulé, Brian Spallina and George Breres to bring training to youth leagues across New York's Long Island. Since then, it has grown to include a variety of training options including, team training, positional focus clinics and coaching instruction.

Helping People Help the Land
In the news . . .
On December 5, 2011, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is launching an innovative water and wildlife conservation effort along the Gulf Coast of the United States. The new Gulf of Mexico Initiative will focus up to $50 million, over three years, in conservation assistance to farmers and ranchers in priority areas along seven major rivers that drain to the Gulf. All five states along the Gulf Coast are part of this effort, including Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas.
USDA will work with a team of local, state and federal partners to deliver this project. Through this effort, Gulf farmers and ranchers will invest in voluntary conservation to provide cleaner water and more abundant wildlife for their neighbors and communities.
NRCS and its conservation partners developed this initiative in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and President Obama's call to action to help restore the waters, shores and wildlife populations along the Gulf Coast. This effort incorporates what the public and communities have requested through their input into the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Task Force Strategy to restore the Gulf Coast. This initiative is a perfect complement to the Task Force's first-of-its-kind strategy that was released today.
Sixteen priority watersheds in seven major river basins in five states are targeted for participation in the new Gulf of Mexico Initiative. In Louisiana:
Bayou Corne-Grand Bayou Watershed and Bayou St. Vincent-Little Grand Bayou Watershed in the Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary
Bayou Grand Marais Watershed in the Mermentau River Basin
For more information on the Gulf of Mexico Initiative, visit Louisiana's GoMI web page or contact your local Natural Resources Conservation Service office or Soil and Water Conservation District..
CSP is offered in all 50 states and the Pacific and Caribbean areas through continuous sign-ups. The program provides many conservation benefits including improvement of water and soil quality, wildlife habit enhancements, and adoption of conservation activities that address the effects of climate change. Eligible lands include cropland, pastureland, rangeland, nonindustrial private forest land, and agricultural land under the jurisdiction of an Indian tribe.
A CSP self-screening checklist is available to help potential applicants determine if CSP is suitable for their operation. The checklist highlights basic information about CSP eligibility requirements, contract obligations, and potential payments. It is available from local NRCS offices and on the CSP web page.
For more information on the Conservation Stewardship Program, contact your local Natural Resources Conservation Service office or Soil and Water Conservation District.
On December 13, 2011, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has revised its national conservation practice standard on nutrient management to help producers better manage the application of nutrients on agricultural land. Proper application of nitrogen and phosphorus offers tremendous benefits to producers and the public, including cost savings to the producer and the protection or improvement of ground and surface water, air quality, soil quality and agricultural sustainability.
The nutrient management conservation practice is an important tool in the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) conservation toolbox. NRCS uses this conservation practice to help farmers and ranchers apply their nutrients more efficiently. Proper management of nitrogen and phosphorus, including the use of organic sources of nitrogen such as animal manure, legumes and cover crops, can save producers money. The nutrient management standard provides a roadmap for NRCS staff and others to help producers apply available nutrient sources in the right amount, from the right source, in the right place, at the right time for maximum agricultural and environmental benefits.
NRCS' nutrient management experts worked with universities, non-government organizations, industry and others to revise the standard to ensure it is scientifically sound. Key changes in the standard include expanding the use of technology to streamline the nutrient management process and allowing states more flexibility in providing site-specific nutrient management planning using local information when working with producers.
Louisiana will adopt the new nutrient management standard by the end of 2012.
For more information about how nutrient management fits into conservation work, visit NRCS' Nutrient and Pest Management web page or contact your local Natural Resources Conservation Service office or Soil and Water Conservation District.

Catch: Instantaneous response captures the moment just as you pictured it
Clear images shot freely from wide-angle to telephoto.
28-300 mm 10.7x optical zoom
Ricoh's original retracting lens system made it possible to fit the high-magnification 10.7x optical wide-angle zoom lens in a thin 29.4 mm body that is both easy to carry and easy to use. This lens can handle a wide range of shooting situations, including powerful telephoto shots as well as wide-angle shooting of both expansive landscapes and interior scenes with limited distance between camera and subject. In addition, the CX3's ability to shoot high-quality images at high sensitivity levels enables you to use telephoto photography to faithfully capture the joy, surprise, and excitement of a scene without worrying about blur.
Ricoh's original retracting lens system made it possible to fit a 10.7x optical zoom lens in a thin 29.4 mm compact body.
- * Original Ricoh technology in which the lens can fit in a small space because part of it swings in a pendulum-like movement.
Easily select the desired angle of view.
Step zoom and auto resize zoom
The step zoom function enables you to fix the optical zoom magnification at eight steps (28 mm, 35 mm, 50 mm, 85 mm, 105 mm, 135 mm, 200 mm, and 300 mm equivalent). For a zoom range beyond the 10.7x optical zoom (300 mm), the auto resize zoom takes you to a maximum of 61.0x (1,710 mm equivalent)* in four steps (recorded image resized to 5M, 3M, 1M, VGA). Extracting and recording the desired portion of the image shot, auto resize zoom does not degrade image quality like digital zoom, which records the image after magnifying a portion of it up to a designated size.
- *Image size VGA (recorded pixels: 640x480)
- *Auto resize zoom only operates when [Picture Quality/Size] is set to 10M 4:3F or 10M 4:3N.
Capture moving subjects clearly with subject tracking AF.
The camera focusing system automatically tracks moving subjects, ensuring that photographs are in focus and correctly exposed whenever you choose to press the shutter-release button. This feature is ideal for shots of active children and pets, as well as for photographs of flowers and other subjects that demand careful composition.
Leave the camera in charge for perfect focus thanks to its multi-talented autofocus system.
The CX4's autofocus system focuses fast and reliably no matter what the subject or how the photo is composed, ensuring that you'll never miss a chance to take a photo.
Face-priority multi-AF
If faces are detected* while photographing people, priority is given to focusing on the faces. At the same time, exposure and white balance are also optimized for the faces so you will not miss the most appealing expressions of your subjects.
- *The faces of up to eight people can be detected.
- *Not guaranteed to work in all photographic conditions.
Multi-target AF
If faces are detected* while photographing people, priority is given to focusing on the faces. At the same time, exposure and white balance are also optimized for the faces so you will not miss the most appealing expressions of your subjects.
- *The faces of up to eight people can be detected.
- *Not guaranteed to work in all photographic conditions.
Multi-target AF does high-speed consecutive shooting of five images with different focal distances determined by the camera. It is effective for scenes (such as flowers) where there is a narrow range for a sharp focus. The camera automatically decides the five focus points and does the high-speed consecutive shooting of five images while shifting the focus to each point. After shooting, you can select the image with the preferred focus.
- *Simulated image.
- *The continuously shot still images are recorded together as a single MP file (a file format with multiple still images in a single file). With MP file images recorded by the CX4, a selected frame can be extracted and saved as an individual JPEG image within the camera.
The camera detects the optimum focus position by shifting the focus to follow subject movement even when the shutter release button is not half-pressed. Since the AF operates to match subject movement, it is possible to shoot quickly when the shutter release button is pressed.

I love quick breads. They're easy to make, the recipes can easily be changed up to fit your mood, and pretty much everyone loves them. I know I haven't met a quick bread I didn't like. So when I saw a recipe for a Sweet Potato Cranberry Quick Bread pop up on Facebook yesterday from a new-to-me food blog called Beard & Bonnet, I had to investigate a little further.
It turned out that the delicious-looking loaf was also gluten-free, which is actually perfect since Phil is currently avoiding gluten and he recently brought home a bag of gluten-free all purpose flour mix from work for me to experiment with. The flour is called Cup4Cup and according to the web site, Cup4Cup was developed in the famed French Laundry in Yountville, CA, by Lena Kwak, then the restaurant's Research & Development Chef. It's called Cup4Cup because of its ability to replace all-purpose wheat flour in traditional recipes cup for cup, making it easier for those transitioning to a gluten-free diet to use some of their old favorite recipes without having to change anything. You would use this flour for things like cakes, cookies, quick breads, and biscuits, etc., but not something like a sandwich bread. There are suggestions for use on the web site along with some recipes that look really great. I'm gonna try the brioche rolls soon. The one drawback to this flour is that it's pretty expensive, but I think it's a great option for occasional treats. It worked wonderfully in this sweet potato bread.
So I basically followed the sweet potato quick bread recipe from Beard & Bonnet pretty closely, but I didn't feel like going to the grocery store so I made some changes based on what I had on hand and what sounded good to me this morning. I substituted buttermilk for almond milk (because of this I decreased the baking powder to 2 tsp and added 1/2 tsp baking soda, although I'm not sure this was entirely necessary). I used light brown sugar instead of regular granulated sugar, just because I like the flavor of brown sugar and I felt like using it (next time I might use some maple syrup). I substituted dried tart cherries for cranberries because when I looked in the pantry, I saw the cherries first. And I added 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, because pecans just make everything better. I also divided the batter between three mini loaf pans rather than baking one big loaf – one for Phil, one for me, and one to give away!
The batter was pretty thick and sticky and it was kind of hard to divide it between the pans evenly. As you can see, it really didn't want to smooth out either. But it rose nicely and had a really nice texture once it was baked. I like to think that the craggy tops just gave my little loaves more character.
This sweet potato bread is really good. The texture is perfect and it's packed full of fall flavor without being overly sweet. For those of you who don't need to be gluten-free, I think this recipe would work just fine with wheat flour and I might try it next time with a combination of all purpose and freshly ground whole wheat flour.
If you'd like to give it a try, you can find the full recipe at Beard & Bonnet.

Nicole, those nubby little loaves look scrumptious. I love your combo of sweet potato, tart cherries and pecans. Perfect for Thanksgiving. Thank you for this gluten-free inspiration! Another beautiful post- as always.8:01 pm Nov 16th, 2013
looks great and so innovative9:03 pm Nov 16th, 2013
Thank you so much for sharing your version of my sweet potato cranberry loaf! I love the idea of using cherries and I completely agree that pecans make everything better.:)2:16 pm Nov 18th, 2013
I have never used the Cup4Cup brand, I usually use my trusted Better Batter, but I just may have to branch out and give Cup4Cup a try after reading this!
Such a great idea! I might be trying this by next week. Thank you!1:51 pm Nov 19th, 2013
Pity the recipe calls for sugar. I see you used brown but I would go even further and replace it with one of the more healthy natural sweeteners. ( not all the so called natural sweeteners are healthy) My husband and I have not eaten anything with sugar for years so we are used to less sweetness.8:51 am Nov 24th, 2013

We report experimental observation of three-field noise correlation between two coexisting four-wave mixing (FWM) signals and the probe signal in a coherently-prepared rubidium vapor system. The two FWM signals in a double-Λ type quasi-four-level atomic system are obtained in different directions via their respective phase- matching conditions and can be detected individually. These signals and the probe beam are found to be strongly correlated or anticorrelated with each other.

A Criminal Defense Lawyer earns an average salary of $76,823 per year. Experience has a moderate effect on income for this job.
Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
Criminal defense lawyers are responsible for representing clients who are charged with crimes in courts. They may represent clients who are charged with misdemeanor or felony offenses, such as drug-related crimes, murder, domestic violence, DUI, etc., and applicants must be a member of the Bar in their state of employment. Employers also require that their lawyers graduate from a school which is accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA).Read More...
To apply for a junior criminal defense lawyer position, prior experience as a law clerk or intern in a law office, such as a district attorney's office, public defender's office, or private law firm may be required, and some employers may promote interns to become criminal defense lawyers provided that they meet all requirements.
Interpersonal skills are important in this position to work well with judges, clients, witnesses, prosecutors, and judicial staff, and verbal and written communication skills are also important. Criminal defense lawyers must be able to write efficient legal briefs to effectively represent clients in court, and they also perform legal research, analyses, and motion writing. Flexibility is important for this job, as criminal defense lawyers must make appearances at various criminal courts within their state, and those who represent clients in federal court may spend a great deal of time away from home. Criminal defense lawyers must be reliable and able to work independently without any supervision, and the ability to speak a second language such as Spanish is also beneficial. To stay up-to-date with laws and regulations, they may also be expected to read relevant professional journals.

We all know if we're overweight, so do doctors need to keep banging on about it? I say "yes".
Last week it was announced that GPs will be paid for obese patients they advise to lose weight. And today, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence tells GPs and nurses to "identify those who are not active enough and to encourage them to get moving".
This isn't about paternalism, but survival — of ourselves and the NHS. We might have twigged that obesity causes type 2 diabetes, but perhaps not the blindness, fatigue, heart disease, kidney failure, impotence and amputations
