During July, Juvenile Arthritis Awareness Month will see campaigns around the world dedicated to making us aware of the painful and sometimes debilitating symptoms children as young as two have to endure and why an early diagnosis is critical in managing this condition. There are several different types of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA), some milder and some more severe, so getting an early diagnosis on the type of arthritis is critical to successful treatment.
What is Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)?
JIA is the most common form of arthritis in children, affecting around 4-14 children per 100,000 in the USA, and is defined as inflammation or swelling in one or more joints, first occurring before a child's 16th birthday. Slightly more common in girls, it usually occurs in pre-school age children. JIA should not be considered a pint-sized replica of adult arthritis: its symptoms are much more varied and not all symptoms are shared by every sufferer, making it hard to diagnose correctly. JIA is caused when the synovium, the protective lining of a joint or joints, becomes inflamed and swollen. This swelling causes irritation, making the joint more painful and harder to move.
What causes Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)?
While arthritis in adulthood is generally caused by injury or wear and tear, JIA is an auto-immune condition. Auto-immune diseases develop when something goes awry in the body's natural immune system. Instead of protecting the body against things like flu viruses, it attacks its own cells by mistake. In JIA this can result in painful inflammation, fever and other symptoms. Little is known about what triggers JIA, although it is thought genes may play a part, as could environmental factors.
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) symptoms
If your child has any of the following symptoms for more than a couple of weeks, they should see a doctor:
- Painful, swollen or stiff joints: if a child wakes up complaining of pain or stiffness which gets better after moving around, JIA could be a possible cause. If you notice your child is unable to perform normal movements or activities which were previously easy like holding a knife and fork, again consider JIA.
- Joints that feel warm to touch. You might notice redness and swelling around a joint which could feel hot
- A fever which often comes on suddenly or at the same time of day, and then disappears after a short time.
- Unexplained tiredness
- A limp without any specific injury
- Some forms of JIA cause skin rashes, usually over the knuckles or on the abdomen, arms and legs
JIA may affect one or multiple joints and in around 10-20% of cases can affect the entire body, causing a rash and fever. Interpreting symptoms is a lot harder in young children and many of the above symptoms can be present in other childhood diseases. If you have any doubts about your child's symptoms, try using the Isabel Symptom Checker:
If your Doctor suspects your child is suffering from JIA, they will perform a thorough physical examination and may order certain diagnostic tests and x-rays, partly to rule out conditions which share common symptoms. Your doctor might also wish to wait and see how the symptoms develop during the first six months after onset. The number of joints affected during this period will help determine the final diagnosis. There are several different types of JIA but their common thread is that if left untreated, they can have a serious, even life-changing impact on a young child such as permanent joint damage. Early diagnosis is therefore critical. Given the right treatment, children with mild to moderate JIA will usually go into remission, although occasional flare-ups causing stiffness and pain may occur over a longer term.
Treatment of JIA
Sadly there is no cure for JIA, but there are treatments which can help both slow down the condition and relieve the symptoms. A range of treatments including steroids, anti-inflammatories, and injections are often employed, depending on the type of JIA, to relieve pain and swelling and maintain movement and strength. In very severe cases, surgery may be used to replace joints. Regular exercise to improve joint flexibility and strengthen muscles combined with a healthy diet are vital for a child living with JIA, while some sufferers get relief from acupuncture, massage or hydrotherapy. Many children with JIA will progress into adulthood without any symptoms, but for an unlucky 30% arthritis can remain active into adult life. The key to ensuring the most positive outcome is finding an experienced team of specialists to work alongside and to get as early a diagnosis as possible to ensure the right treatment begins before permanent damage can occur.
If you or your child are experiencing any symptoms you are concerned about, place them all into the Isabel Symptom Checker and discuss the results with your doctor.

A couple days ago I went to Ton Sai and Railay with Thomas and Martin. Thomas and Martin climbed Cowabungalow 6b on Ton Sai Wall then we moved over to Tyrolean Wall and climbed Missing Snow 6b+. I climbed it clean on my second try. It is a fun pumpy route with polished feet. After this, we went over to Railay. Anong and I ate lunch while Martin and Thomas went over to The Keep. After lunch we met them at 123 Wall. I was thinking of climbing We Sad 6a+ which starts by jumping up on a stalactite but couldn't see the bolts / slings up to the anchor so decided to go over to Muay Thai wall and climbed Tamada (Normal) 5 and Hello Christine 6a. Both led cleanly. I might have climbed these about 3 years ago the first time I came here but I don't remember them so I'm calling it an onsight! 😛
There were a few days at Chong Phli I didn't write about but today Anong and I went climbing there with Martin, Dorothy, and Thomas. I warmed up on EFZ 6a+ then tried Buzzsaw 6b on top rope. After flailing around on the start for a few minutes I got it figured out and made it to the top without too much trouble. After this did a few more laps on EFZ 6a+ and called it a day. There was no breeze so it felt very hot and I was getting tired.

Even as the origin of the 2016 surgical strike video remains unknown, its release has led to a debate in the military establishment. Though the government has not taken the onus for its release, it has come out strongly to defended it.
Majority of Army officials are against the move as they believe that it (release of video) has comprised the 'tradecraft' of the special forces.
Lieutenant General P.C. Bhardwaj (retd), former vice chief of the Army and a special forces officer who spent several years of his career operating in Jammu and Kashmir, believes that the forces compromised their specialised methodology which they mastered after years of training.
"At the first place, I don't advocate release of videos related to special forces or special operations and others. These are highly specialised methodology operations, which we learn after putting in years of hard training. It is not at all good at the strategic level," Lt. General Bhardwaj told THE WEEK.
"I really don't know about the compulsion behind releasing the video, but no force in the world makes its special operations public, he said, adding that making classified things available on public domain reflects poor thinking.

- 24 cancer patients test COVID positive at Army hospital in Delhi
Echoing similar sentiments, Lieutenant General Vinod Bhatia (retd), former Director General Military Operations, who was also a special forces officer, said special operations should never be publicised.
" First of all, I would say we should stop politicising the Army. Release of this video for any particular gain is not good at all. Surgical strike cannot be a one-off one. You are going to do it again, and if you release such a video, you are revealing too much to your enemy," Lt. General Bhatia pointed out.
"Special operations are very special. Release of any such video makes it easy for an enemy to make out the capability and capacity we have. So, the next time you do a surgical strike, it becomes much more difficult. Being a special officer, I strongly believe that such tactical and strategical level details need not be in public knowledge," he added.
On the intervening night of September 28-29, 2016, the special forces carried out a cross border strike on the terror launch pads situated in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The surgical strike was Army's response to an attack by Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed on an Indian Army camp in Uri close to the Line of Control in which 19 soldiers were martyred.
Nonetheless, Lt. General D.S. Hooda (retd), who was the northern Army commander and had supervised the surgical strike, is satisfied with the release of video. Lt. General Hooda was the first official who confirmed the authenticity of the video.
"Personally, I feel this video should have been released soon after the surgical strike. Our guys did an outstanding job. Despite that, there were always nagging questions about its veracity as well its authenticity," he said, adding that there were also some who said the entire operations was over-hyped. "But, I am some way quite satisfied that it has come out. I cannot comment on its timing, but it should have come much earlier."
Lt General Ata Hasnain (retd), who has commanded Srinagar-based 15 Corps shares a similar opinion. "I feel the videos should have been released immediately after the event for their effect and credibility to be much higher. Nevertheless, even now, the effect can be used to brand Pakistan as sponsor of proxy war in Kashmir and display India's military capability," he said, adding that the opposition is not taking into consideration the context the times of the release.
"Operations in Jammu and Kashmir were much less in the public space in the past. Army responses across the LoC needed to be kept under wraps. No longer. Social media and evening television has changed the discourse of information handling. Government ownership is imperative for most of such operations as it inspires confidence in the people and dilutes adversary confidence while nailing their lies," he said.
Release of video has also given an opportunity for politicians to wage war against each other.
Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said the BJP is trying to gain political mileage from the release of the video by crediting the surgical strike to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "The BJP shamelessly used the surgical strike during the assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh."
Responding to the claim, Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said Pakistan would be happy with the Congress' statements. "Terrorists in Pakistan will be extremely happy with the Congress. The Congress will get a certificate from some terrorist organisations of Pakistan just like Ghulam Nabi Azad got the certificate from Lashkar-e-Taiba," he said.

Ideas to moisturize in summer
These hot summer days should not be forgotten that moisturizing properly is a key factor because, above all, children and the elderly people enjoy the tranquility and energy of leisure activities, sports and nature , whether they are on vacation with their family at home, as in the summer or colonial mansion. Water is an indispensable element of life. When we are born, our body composition is 80% water. Proportion that is decreasing as we grow older. Water is of such importance to our survival that it is also considered to be a food. The functions that water performs in our lives are quite varied: • It transports nutrients and oxygen • Eliminates waste substances • It participates in processes of digestion, absorption and metabolism • It is part of the blood (83%) • It is a part involved in the regulation of body temperature; an accentuated function in the summer season in which we are, since with sweat we can eliminate excess body temperature and cool the surface of the skin. SYMPTOMS OF DEHYDRATION When the body is dehydrated (it loses more liquid than it ingests) it can not do the normal functions. Low blood pressure, heart rate and breathing are accelerated, the urine becomes darker, it shows a loss of color on the face and at the tips of the fingers, it appears dry mouth sensation, drowsiness, headache, fever, delusions and even fainting. DECLARATION OF RECOMMENDATIONS To avoid dehydration and maintain healthy habits, especially in the summer months, we recommend: • Drink 2 to 3 liters daily, continuously and in small quantities. • When physical activities and efforts are carried out, it is advisable that these amounts increase, especially if it sucks. • Always carry a bottle of fluid that reminds you of the need to drink. • Do not forget that the sensation of thirst may appear when there is already dehydration. • Drink different liquids (water, infusions, soft drinks, juices, dairy products, etc.); Changes in flavors help you to drink the required amount. • Intake foods rich in water such as fruit, vegetables and vegetables. • Avoid alcohol consumption: they have diuretic effect and dehydrate. • Keep in a cool and airy environment whenever possible. • Monitor adequate liquid intake of persons most vulnerable to dehydration such as children, grandparents, athletes or outdoor workers. ADVICE TO BE ACCOUNT IN DERMO-AESTHETICS • Aloe vera body gel that gives us great hydration in the body through the skin. • Lilà is one of the lines in bio and proximity cosmetics that works with her main ingredient, aloe vera to all her cosmetics, who work as regenerators and moisturizers. • Body oils, give us nutrition and avoid over-evaporation of water for our skin, we can choose jojoba oil, hazelnut oil or Terpenic apricot nut, for example. They are fast absorption oils indicated by all types of skins. TIPS TO BE ACCOUNTED IN SUPLEMENTATION, IF YOU HAVE TO BE REHYDRATED IN THE SUMMER To recover the minerals and the loss of liquids by high temperatures or physical effort, we can take: • Ergybase (high in potassium) • Megamultimerals • Sea water • Silicon

SERDANG, May 6 - Researchers from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) successfully developed 3D model is almost entirely made of recyclable materials representing suburban areas in Malaysia.
Project leader, Assoc. Prof. Dr Syafinaz Amin Nordin from Department of Microbiology and Medical Parasitology,Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences UPM, said that the model consists of a village, recreational area and vector (animals) causing diseases. The integration between smartphone technology and the "augmented reality (AR)" application allows users to scan the various elements found in the model such as animals, homes and disease-causing sites.
"Before starting, users must download the required application to scan this 3D model. After scanning, all information about the disease in the form of digital narrative, animation, text, visual and audio will be displayed on the user's smartphone screen", she said.
She asserted that, in recent years, there has been an increment in the spread of animal borne diseases, also known as zoonotic diseases in Malaysia. Hence, the concept of "One-Health" was introduced to explain the relationship of zoonotic diseases with humans and the environment.
"Due to this, various disease prevention strategies have been conducted primarily by public health staff to eradicate the spread of epidemics.", she said.
According to her, this innovation was created to provide awareness on the transmission of zoonotic diseases among young leaners.

One of my favorite Indian flatbreads is called Naan; I love it as an accompaniment for stews or saucy dinners. It's got the perfect shape and texture to sop up the good stuff!
Recently, I started making the dough in my bread machine. When you take the dough out, it's been through it's first rising and is ready to form. My first attempt resulted in laves that were way too fat and puffy. I learned from that first experiment to flatten and stretch the loaves much more in future batches! If you don't have a machine, I'm pretty sure this recipe would be easily adaptable to regular mixing and hand kneading.
Naan Dough for the Bread Machine
1 T peanut oil
1/2 c plain yogurt
1/2 c milk
2 c flour
1/4 t salt
1/8 t baking soda
2-1/2 t yeast
1/4 whole wheat flour for forming
Olive oil or melted butter
Run the basic dough cycle. Remove from the machine and divide in half. Divide each half into thirds. Dust the surface with whole wheat flour and roll each piece into a large flat oval. Brush oil or butter on both sides and place them on parchment paper.
Bake the naan at 450 for 6 to 8 minutes, preferably on the parchment on a pizza stone. Serve piping hot or cooled. Makes 6 naan.

You may possibly be lucky enough to get and also make a program to get a project posting throughout your school's career center or an internet job board.

Choosing to further your education has a good deal of initiative. I advise you make the most of the massive number of resources readily available online, In the event you are interested in an instruction without needing to spend sums of money. Mature instruction permits one to stand from the audience in regards to occupation software. Your conventional instruction provides a base in education, but to get quite a few, it lacks both the relevant skills training needed to find operate.
Let's state, you want to cover to see faculty. College isn't a solution. That truth can't be compensated for by even colleges.
A wonderful deal of young people are unhappy in faculty. From the universe these days, college is absolutely essential for all to receive educated and acquire actual life talents.

Just make it more difficult to acquire into college. The people who do understand the reason. College and the debt that is associated can get what it is that you are attempting to pursue.

How to Design for IoT, Log and Event Data?
A common use case for Apache Trafodion in the IoT (Internet of Things) space, in telecommunications and internet security is a very large single table, recording real-time events. Customers want to ingest new data at a fast rate, perform queries and age out obsolete data.
What we typically recommend for this situation is a design pattern consisting of three elements: Salting, Divisioning, and Stripe Compaction.
The first element, salting, creates an even distribution of data across the cluster. Not only are the overall data evenly distributed, the hot (most recent) data is spread evenly across the nodes in your cluster by salting. Salting is hash-based. It applies a hash function to compute a region number for each row. Typically this is based on one or more columns used in operational queries, such as customer id or device id.
Apache Trafodion automatically manages the salt. It computes the hash function and also generates predicates for the salt column automatically. SQL insert, select and delete statements don't need to do anything special.
Now that the data is evenly distributed, we are faced with the next problem – choosing a good row key. To make querying, aging and compaction easier, we want new rows to be appended to the end of each region, but not randomly. Also, we want to be able to query time series data on date ranges, along with other important columns, such as a client or device id.
To achieve both of these goals, we introduce another key prefix, right after the salt – a division id. A division is a time range, such as a day, week or month. This groups together all the rows in that time range and allows us to choose a column like customer id as the leading primary key column.
A typical operational query in such scenarios is something like this:
select * from t where cust_id = x and transaction_timestamp between y and z
Salting on cust_id makes sure all the rows for customer x end up in the same HBase region. Apache Trafodion makes sure the query only accesses that region server, by adding a predicate for the salt column.
Divisioning of the columns ensures that we need to read only data in the relevant time range or ranges, and not years of historical data. It also enables us to use cust_id as the leading primary key column, so that we can quickly hone in on data for our customer amongst the data for millions of customers.
Sometimes we want to query multiple customers and multiple days of data. Trafodion's unique Multi-Dimensional Access Method (MDAM) makes that efficient, by splitting the more complex predicates into scanning only the pertinent ranges, skipping the unneeded data in-between.
So, we have shown that salting and divisioning make it easy to insert data into a time-structured table, as well as allow queries to access just the needed data for specific time range(s) and key column(s).
Strip Compaction
There are two more problems looming, though: Aging of data and HBase major compactions. For this, an HBase feature called stripe compaction can be very useful. It splits the data in an HBase region into multiple stripes, each for a key range (let's say a month of data per stripe). Files get compacted only within these stripes. That means that months of historical data that don't change anymore don't have to be rewritten by compaction repeatedly. They stay around until they are aged out (i.e. deleted). At that point, some "stripes" become empty and are combined with newer non-empty stripes.
In summary: Apache Trafodion and HBase offer three powerful design elements to let you store very large amounts of time-based data in a table. Salting, divisioning and stripe compaction are transparent to SQL queries and allow efficient ingestion, querying and aging of data.

Crossing t's and dotting i's aren't enough for this library board member
Link to January 14 Daily Herald article, "Gail Borden trustee's costs to library in question".
Excerpt: Gail Borden Public Library Trustee Randy Hopp campaigned as a taxpayers' advocate when he ran for a position on the district board in 2009.
But fellow trustees say Hopp has been just the opposite, costing the Elgin-based district $12,315.89 in staff and attorney time in responding to his repeated Freedom of Information Act requests in 2010.
At a board meeting Thursday, Hopp promised he would continue to submit requests for tape recordings of board meetings, despite rulings by the state Attorney General's office that the tapes didn't have to be released. He also threatened to take the matter to court.
Joyce Schifferer, a library administrative assistant, records the meetings on her personal recorder and later uses the tape to assist in writing the minutes.
Hopp said he wants the actual recordings because the "propaganda sheet that comes out as minutes" doesn't suffice.
Trustee JoAnn Armenta said Hopp's submission of continuous FOIA requests "seems tantamount to harassment." She argued that time and money could better be used to service library patrons.
"(More than) $12,000 of staff and attorney time for something you know you're not going to get seems, I don't know a better word, but outrageous," she said.

WATCH: Election Day edition of 'Bet on Awadd' goes off the rails
In order to win tickets to a Caps game, Junkies callers Dan and Riley had to play a special Election Day edition of "Bet on Awadd" Tuesday.
The callers had to guess if Awadd would answer politics-related questions such as "How many senators are in the state of Virginia?" and "What is a filibuster?" correctly or incorrectly.
But as with most Awadd-related events, things quickly went off the rails.
Awadd came into The Junkies studio for the first segment of the game with a giant cut on his chin.
Why, you may ask? Awadd has taken it upon himself to "support men's health" as part of a Movember fundraiser.
Although, it appears his primary motivation is to raise more money than EB.
Mustache is starting to creep in a little. If u have a moment consider throwing in a few bucks for the Movember foundation supporting men's health (prostate & testicular cancer, mental health & suicide prevention). Appreciate it!https://t.co/Ydhiit8Zbs— Eric Bickel (@EBJunkies) November 6, 2018
I am a struggling radio host in Washington DC who is looking to raise money for an excellent cause. My goal is to support men's health and raise more money than Eric Bickel.https://t.co/zMRw0Hrsqd— Adam Epstein (@The1SportsNerd) November 6, 2018
And while hurriedly shaving his beard in the station bathroom, Awadd cut his face, hence the blood. Gotta commit to the bit, I suppose.
But for the second segment, Awadd returned with his face completely wrapped in gauze.
This look is an upgrade for @The1SportsNerd pic.twitter.com/anPMa6pLmg— John Auville (@moneymetalcakes) November 6, 2018
Definitely not someone motivated by "attention dollars."
Awadd says he plans to vote because millennials are "the future of this country."
If this is the future of this country...oh dear.

Homeopathy, a type of alternative medicine, is based on the medical use of highly diluted preparations. This process involves assessing a person's symptoms and then treating that person's symptoms accordingly based on certain similar conditions it the illness' symptoms may have to another affliction. For example, if the symptoms of a cold are similar to the symptoms of mercury poisoning, then mercury would be the homeopathic remedy. Symptoms of a person's physical and psychological state are also taken into account when prescribing a remedy and natural ingredients are usually implemented in these remedies. Although the idea seems extreme, the mercury solution would be taken in extremely fractionated doses that are highly diluted in water. This remedy is continually taken to attempt to cure that specific ailment and no other medications are consumed during this time. Most homeopathic remedies are considered safe, but this practice has been controversial and criticized for putting patients' health at risk by giving advice in regards to their physical health that goes against conventional medicine like the use of vaccinations and antibiotics. The effectiveness of homeopathic remedies beyond the "placebo effect" is unfounded in scientific research and evidence. While some individuals may experience positive results from homeopathic remedies, there are many more who cannot say the same for their own experiences with this inconclusive method of treating ailments. Due to the dilution of substances in water, some remedies may not even contain any pharmacologically active molecules, rendering the effectiveness of the diluted remedy completely ineffective and useless in the eyes of medicine. However, many homeopaths claim that water has a memory that ensures homeopathic remedies work without any of the original substance present in the dilution. Regulations on these homeopathic practices are varied from country to country. There are some countries in which no legal regulations exist while others require degrees and/or licenses in conventional medicine.
The uses of homeopathic remedies seem far and wide. Some claim to have incredible results that are fast and permanent while others claim no effects at all. Homeopathy is recognized as being mostly safe, save for the rare circumstance, even in children and pregnant women. Since homeopathy mostly uses remedies that are all natural or based on natural ingredients, it is said that homeopathic remedies will work in congruence with your body's natural processes and in harmony with your immune system, rather than suppressing the immunity as some conventional medicines are said to do. Homeopathy seeks to treat the source of the illness or condition as a whole rather than the symptoms of that illness or condition, therefore fully curing what ails you. Homeopathic remedies are also usually not addictive as some prescription medications can be. Prescribing homeopathic remedies for a patient takes more time than conventional methods. Remedies are said to be very specific to each affliction and therefore take time to be completely cured. Homeopathy may also be used as a preventive method for certain issues such as nervousness, anxiety, mental health issues, migraines, ulcers, and/or hypertension. Homeopathic remedies can be used for many illnesses, diseases and condition, but seem to be implemented most commonly for the treatment of typically less serious ailments such as colds, flus, headaches and other minor illnesses.
Some benefits to the uses of homeopathic remedies are that these remedies are said to be all natural and created with very small amounts of minerals, herbs and various animal products. Homeopathy is said to treat the root of the illness, disease or condition thereby curing the patient completely rather than simply treating the symptoms as many conventional medical methods seem to do. Homeopathic remedies are said to have little to no side effects when used and do not interfere with the immune system, but instead use only ingredients said to strengthen the immunity. This is in contrast to conventional medicine which often suppresses the immunity while treating various symptoms.
The use of homeopathic remedies is fairly safe and usually does not result in any negative side effects. This is said to be because the ingredients used in these remedies are all gained from natural sources that work with the body rather than against it. None of the remedies taken are addictive nor do they have any chemical actions. Homeopathic remedies seek to strengthen the body and it's natural immunity to improve overall bodily health and wellness.

Because I currently live out my misspent life on the radio, I had casually mentioned on the air that Car and Driver was arriving momentarily and that the magazine had asked me to evaluate the gasoline-engined version of AM General's HMMWV ("Humvee" or "Hummer" to the rest of us)—this one destined not for the military but for the carriage trade. Now, as I approached the behemoth for a closer look, I found for the first time what proved to be true for the next two days that I had this bruiser in custody: a Humvee in mufti draws crowds.
The Car and Driver guys—executive editor John Phillips and photographer Aaron Kiley—were grinning as they handed me the keys. One of them said, "Lord Vader, your car awaits you." I don't know whether they remembered, but a quarter of a century ago The Washington Post had dubbed me "the Darth Vader of the Nixon Administration."
This particular Hummer certainly qualifies as a Darth Vader, glistening in its black wet-look paint, like the Imron used by proud owner/drivers of the menacing big-rig Peterbilts, Kenworths, and Freightliners that suddenly appear in your rear seat with a blast of the air horn when you momentarily stop paying attention in the fast lane. But the big rigs do not blow their horns at the Humvee.
So there it sat, the civilian Hummer, the self-appointed king of wheeled off-road vehicles, dominating the parking lot of radio station WJFK in metropolitan Washington D.C. My task, among others, was to see whether the machine was as "bad" on the road as its reputation off the road. Alas, in the urban jungle, this baby proved to be a pussycat, not a tiger.
It wasn't the absence of a gun turret, although I did notice this immediately. Nor was it the surprisingly comfortable Isringhausen seats. Nor even the "don't-ask don't-tell" quality of the vehicle's "Hummer" nickname, which was emblazoned across the liftgate. No, the tip-off that the legendary Humvee has been emasculated by the forces of political correctness was the first thing the driver sees after climbing in: the underside of the sun visor is placarded with admonitions to "Wear Seat Belts" and "Don't Drink and Drive." Marvelous. Somewhere, I am certain, there's a sign inside that reads "Wash Hands After Going to the Bathroom."
Then there's the engine. This vehicle weighs 6766 pounds. What did AM General choose to propel over three-and-a-quarter tons? A 350-cubic-inch small-block Chevy. Although that engine is configured for maximum torque (300 pound-feet at 2400 rpm) and is more or less politically correct, it is overwhelmed, pushing this machine from 0 to 60 mph with all of the acceleration available to a beached whale: 18.1 seconds. Eighty mph comes up in 46.8 seconds—it only feels like a week—which also brings you to within 3 mph of the Hummer's top speed.
If you slow for traffic on the infamous Washington Beltway (at 55 mph, you'll be rammed from the rear by traffic flowing 30 mph faster, although in the Hummer you won't feel the impact), then you'll be two exits behind your running mates by the time this machine gets back up to speed. All the while, the straining small-block sounds as if it were lubed with sand imported from Daytona Beach.
Brakes? Another problem. Wear steel-soled motorcycle boots and drag your feet. Decelerating from 70 mph to a dead stop requires 253 feet—the worst figure C/D has reported since its last Hummer test, in July 1992. And speaking of feet, mine weren't happy during my daily 60-mile round-trip commute. The heater (whose controls have been lifted from my 1994 Chevrolet Suburban but should have been based on the simpler and more effective controls in my '95 Chevy C/K pickup) is of the fry-one-leg-and-freeze-the-other variety. It recalls vehicular memories, but only to those of us who have been around for a while.

Defining consciousness is not a one page cut and dry thing. Least not in my study of it. I view consciousness as a human capacity in the physical world. Only humans are conscious in my study of it and there is no reason for animals to be conscious : for what? Why should animals be conscious? Explain to me why? They have survived millions of years without it.
If primordial man was conscious he would have developed , performed , and created much better and quicker. That's what I believe. But they peaked at a primordial level then died out. Muck like apes, showing only high instinct.
As for 'primordial man'- just how far back are we talking about? At exactly what stage, in history or pre-history, pray tell, do you believe that mankind DID become 'conscious'? What archeological and/or biological evidence are you basing that entirely arbitrary dividing line on? And in your opinion, was this a universal dividing line, or do you effectively believe in racial supremacy- that only one race of Homo Sapiens evolved consciousness (i.e, Homo Sapiens Sapiens, as opposed to Homo Sapiens Neanderthalis or Homo Sapiens Rhodensiensis), and that we are the sole conscious beings to have ever existed on this planet?
There is no doubt that many animals communicate within their species, and even more so within their same groups. Many of those not for personal gain, but for the overall good of the community. Killer Whales teach their young how to hunt. Chimps plan attacks on neighbouring groups. All of this shows intelligence & conciousness.
One question you have not answered - in just the same way as you always sidestep the question. Just exactly how do you define conciousness? Your type never like to define the parameters of anything as it leaves it open for something to meet the definition, thus proving you wrong.
How to define consciousness. A good question.
I believe that without Empathy, there is no true Consciousness.

Annual Raft Race returns for Blackrock Tidy Towns
Since 1996, the colourful event has grown in popularity every year
At the launch of the Blackrock Tidy Town's Raft Race in Blackrock were Brian McElroy (Treasurer) Kate Smyth (committee member), John Horan (Chairman) and Ciaran Parkin of sponsor SuperValu
The 2018 Blackrock Tidy Towns Raft Race will take place this coming Sunday June 17th, with no shortage of family fun to be had by the sea for all in attendance.
The event was launched last week with Chairman John Horgan detailing the extensive programme of events for the day, including - of course - the exhilarating raft race at 2.30pm.
Music lovers will enjoy what is on offer on the promenade with Dundalk Brass Band and the New Orleans-style Dixieland Jazz Band both performing.
Down on the beach, there will also be the sandcastle competition, junior Poc Fada and the Schools Talent Competition, featuring The Reynolds Academy of Performing Arts, to entertain the crowds throughout the afternoon.
Patrons can also look forward to favourites such as the raffle, face painting and amusements as usual once again this year. The event is kindly supported by Louth County Council and individual attractions are sponsored by a host of businesses including Blackrock Credit Union, Glam Rock, Tiernan's Centra Blackrock and The Windsor Bar & Restaurant.
Every year, around 30 rafts enter the annual Raft Race competition but even more have signed up to take part this time around - meaning it will be more competitive than ever.
Last year, a team from the Geraldines GFC won the Raft Race competition, ahead of Blackrock Park and the Little Oaks Pre-School while a special award was given to Uncle Tom's Cabin.
The Blackrock Raft Race first began in 1996 and is now in its 23rd year. 13 different businesses, organisations, groups or clubs have won the event. The Village Garden emerged victorious in 2016 while Seatown's Mens Shed won in 2015 and Smyth's Life Pharmacy won the event four years ago.
For even more information about the day and other local happenings, you can log onto the Blackrock website at http://www.blackrockvillage.ie.

NASA data proves global warming computer models wrong
A new study reported in the peer-reviewed journal Remote Sensing examines satellite data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which show that, from the years 2000 through 2011, the Earths atmosphere released much more heat than previously predicted by computer models.
The study indicates far less future global warming will occur than United Nations computer models have predicted, and supports prior studies indicating increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide trap far less heat than alarmists have claimed, read an article for Forbes.
The satellite observations suggest there is much more energy lost to space during and after warming than the climate models show, said study co-author Dr. Roy Spencer, a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), in a UAH press release. There is a huge discrepancy between the data and the forecasts that is especially big over the oceans.
At the peak, satellites show energy being lost while climate models show energy still being gained, Spencer said.
While this does not necessarily disprove all global warming theories, it does display some glaring flaws in the computer models used to support the agendas of climate change extremists.
Applied to long-term climate change, the research might indicate that the climate is less sensitive to warming due to increased carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere than climate modelers have theorized, the press release read.

The month-long Kaamatan festival came to an end Wednesday on a moderate yet cheerful note with a RM1 million allocation to the Kadazandusun Cultural Association (KDCA) and yet another powerful display of multiracial and religious harmony that is uniquely Sabah's.
The spell of heavy rains and terrible traffic jam did not deter thousands of local and foreign visitors from flocking to the Hongkod Koisaan grounds to experience the carnival-like atmosphere.
Launched in Tambunan this year on May 1, the Kaamatan, which is traditionally the Kadazandusun thanksgiving celebration for a bountiful rice harvest, was celebrated at all levels from the districts down to villages and families throughout the month.
There had also been celebrations in the peninsula States of Johor, Perak, Penang as well as the Federal Territory of Labuan and Klang Valley.
For many years now, the spirit of the festival has been embraced by all races and faiths, each wanting to celebrate their own meaning of a harvest.

Bonnie Tyler, Heart, Sammy Hagar
Footloose is the original soundtrack of the Paramount Motion Picture, Footloose. The original nine-track album was released in 1984 and reached Number One on the Billboard 200 Pop Album chart on April 21, 1984, where it stayed until June 30, 1984.
The original soundtrack contained three Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hits, including two #1 hits, Kenny Loggins' "Footloose" and Deniece Williams' "Lets Hear It for the Boy", and "Almost Paradise", a duet by Ann Wilson and Mike Reno that reached #7.

Six of the nine tracks became Top 40 hits, and three — Kenny Loggins' bouncy title song, the excellent power ballad "Almost Paradise" (a duet between Loverboys Mike Reno and Hearts Ann Wilson), and Deniece Williams' frothy, charming "Lets Hear It for the Boy" — shot into the Top Ten.

5.0 out of 5 stars Whats that over there?!,
Peek into my house on Saturday morning at 9am and you would have found me spring cleaning (and dancing) like a whirling dervish. Footloose was the soundtrack, and not only did it make spring cleaning funner, its what actually gave me the impetus to do it in the first place!
I shouldn't like to give the impression I sit around wallowing in my own filth, but I don't find cleaning enjoyable, at all. Its necessary, and once you're doing it its satisfying, but its certainly not fun. Except, with ole Kenny Loggins and Welsh lunatic Bonnie Tyler exuberantly warbling out their power ballads in the background, sweeping became a dance, and vacuuming became a joy.
It has to be said, not all of the tracks on here are good. "Almost Paradise" (track 3) is everything that was bad about drab, uber-earnest, 1980s love song dreadfulness. (When it came on, its most likely I missed a spot.) And the last few tracks, barring the fabness of Foreigner, aren't as good as the earlier part of the album. But given the earlier parts awesoneness, it can be forgiven.
Its easy to forget how well known the songs are. Holding Out For a Hero (aforemetioned Welsh lunatic) is shamefully, embarrassingly catchy and makes wiping counter-tops fun; Lets Hear it For the Boy is deceptively tuneful (the singer suddenly goes soprano at one point, highlighting how singers back then were genuinely talented… not something we always demand from our musicians nowadays) and makes fluffling sofa cushions a breeze.
Kenny Loggins is the star of the sountrack with the best track of the album, and one thats not too far off the pace. The title track is a vintage 80s "rockin' out" choon and absolutely sets the tone. But, for me, I'm Free is the standout song. Its not just catchy: it is absurdly, toe-tappingly, hip-swingingly, running-manningly fantastic and sounds even better when played obnoxiously loud.
So open your windows, turn up the volume, grab a broom and be safe in the knowledge that once in the open air, the original source of music becomes lost… no-one will know you're the one playing it. Oh, they'll suspect, but they won't know for sure. Win! Whether you're working out or cleaning, or just feeling a little blue, even the most cynical of ears will be energised, enthused and, most importantly, genuinely cheered while listening to this. Tremendous stuff!
