The Chicago White Sox are one of the oldest and most iconic clubs in the MLB. The team was formed in 1900. At the time, it was called the Chicago White Stockings. However, the newspapers shortened the name to White Sox. The franchise is located in South Chicago, Illinois. The team is placed in the American League where it plays in the Central division.
Charter Franchise
The White Sox hold the distinction of being a part of the eight original franchises which gave rise to the MLB. These eight clubs were collectively known as the 'Charter Eight'. The home stadium of the Sox is the US Cellular Field. However, prior to 1991, the Sox used to play their home games at the iconic Comiskey Park from 1910 till 1991. The first home stadium of the club was the South Side Park.
Most Successful in the league
The White Sox have always been one of the pioneers of the game. The defensive strategy employed by the Sox in their 1906 World Series victory earned them the nickname 'The Hitless Wonders.' Some of the best players in the league played for the Sox during their 1917 World Series triumph. These included the likes of Shoeless Joe Jackson, Eddie Cicotte and Eddie Collins. The 1919 World Series was a dark period for the club when some of their players were banned for life. However, displaying the signs of true champions, the Sox have dealt with adversity and bounced back. Overall, the Sox have won the World Series 3 times, the Conference title 2 times and the division title 5 times.

If and When Israel Strikes in Syria, Russia is Surprisingly Quiet About It
[This is based on an article for The Jerusalem Post by Yossi Melman, co-author of the history of Israel's intelligence and security agencies — Spies Against Armageddon.]
We should not ignore — or underestimate — the warnings of the Syrian Government and its army's capability to respond to Thursday night's attack, which Syria attributed to Israel. The spokesperson for the Syrian Army claimed that Israeli planes flying near the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) in northern Israel fired missiles that hit the Mezzah military airport, located near Damascus. The airport is approximately five kilometers from Basher Assad's presidential palace. Opposition leaders claim that there were more targets, in addition to the airport.
This is not the first time that the Syrian Army and Assad's government have blamed Israel for attacks in Syrian territory, threatening retaliation. Until now, the threats have been empty threats.
It is clear that Assad does not want to open a new front with Israel. Just recently, with the help of Russian fighter jets, Hezbollah forces alongside Iranian Shi'ite ground forces and the Syrian army were able to defeat rebel forces and regain territory. These successes raised the Syrian army's morale, upping their confidence. In their next conflict or the one after, Syrian leadership may develop "Crying Wolf" syndrome. Strike after strike and in the end, Assad may decide to respond.
Another possibility is for Assad to use a proxy to attack, using Palestinians or Hezbollah on the Golan Heights border in order to rattle Israel. This is something that already happened two years ago when Iranian forces, together with Hezbollah, Palestinians and pro-Syrian Druze created cells which attacked Israeli posts in the Golan Heights.
According to foreign reports, Israel managed to squash the cells by assassination, which included Jihad Mughniyah, whose father, Imad Mughniyah (Hezbollah's "defense minister"), was assassinated in a joint Mossad and CIA operation in 2008. Druze terrorist Samir Kontar was also killed.
The Israeli security establishment does not belittle threats from Syria, taking into account a reaction from Damascus, though the probability of an attack is currently low.
According to foreign reports, Israel has attacked Syria ten to fifteen times in recent years, eliminating sophisticated weaponry such as air defense systems, navigation and guided systems as well as long-distance missiles — all of which were supplied from Iran and Syria to Hezbollah.
However, what is especially interesting is Russia's silence. A spokesperson for the Russian Defense Ministry has in the past warned the United States and coalition forces not to attack the Syrian regime. Yet Russia has remained silent on the alleged Israeli attack.
If Russia, Assad's biggest supporter, was against Israeli attacks and warned against them, it would have limited Israel's freedom of action.
This leads us to believe that there is probably a quiet understanding between Jerusalem and Moscow. Beyond "de-conflicting," or preventing the two militaries from shooting at each other, the full nature of the agreement remains unknown.
The deal was reached in meetings involving Israel's President Reuven Rivlin, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and IAF commander Maj.-Gen. Amir Eshel — with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his military chiefs. It seems as though Israel enjoys freedom of movement in firing missiles into Syria.
It is possible to conclude that Russia understands that Israel's interests are solely to prevent arms transfers of sophisticated weapons from reaching Hezbollah. They also know Israel's red line. Israel has no interest in entering Syria's civil war, not by supporting the rebels or by acting against the regime.
It seems that so long as Russia continues to accept these principles, Israel will continue to act from time to time with accurate intelligence.

Launching of the new 3.5.0 release of CamiTK
We are proud to announce the new 3.5.0 release of CamiTK [1].
This release mainly focuses on stability. CamiTK 3.5.0 does not have many new features, but fixes a lot of bugs and misbehaviors.
FYI, the next CamiTK version would be 4.0, a new major version and should be available very soon (spring 2016). CamiTK 4.0 will upgrade all the main dependencies : it will be based on Qt 5, VTK 6, ITK 4 and cmake 3. The supported compilers (gcc and MSVC) will also be upgraded to ensure C++11 compatibility. CamiTK 4.0 SDK is expected to be backward compatible with versions 3.x (apart from the minimal changes in headers due to the dependency upgrades).
We hope you will enjoy working with CamiTK.

MEXICO CITY, Mexico --The third Mexican mayor in a month was slain by suspected drug gang hit men on the same day the country was compared to Colombia by a U.S. official. Mexico wasn't pleased by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's statement yesterday that the country is "looking more and more like Colombia looked 20 years ago."
Clinton and other U.S. officials pointed to Mexican drug cartels' use of car bombs, a tool once favored by cartel-allied rebels in Colombia.
The Mexican government quickly condemned the killing of the mayor of the northern town of El Naranjo. But it rejected the comparison with Colombia, where the Medellin drug cartel waged a full frontal assault on the state.
Mexico also bristled at Clinton's suggestion that the U.S. was looking to implement some type of Plan Colombia for Mexico and Central America. She was referring to a U.S. anti-drug program in which American special forces teams trained Colombian troops and U.S. advisers are attached to Colombian military units.

Key Points:
Talitha McEwan loves her sport - probably a little too much. She swims, does synchronised swimming, water polo, underwater hockey, hockey, cricket, and she's also a surf life saver. But it all costs money. "My mum said I was doing too many sports so either I give up something or make money. "So I started making soap." "We kept telling her that things cost money but it wasn't sinking in," says mum Veronika. "We don't want to raise children who don't realise the value of money." So the entrepreneurial 11 year old from Papamoa has been making all sorts of soaps, candles, bath salts, shampoo, conditioner, lip balm, face cream (even leather polish and furniture polish) since she was eight years old.
"My mum said I was doing too many sports so either I give up something or make money. So I started making soap."She has her own Facebook page and website, Talitha's Treasures, where people can make orders. She specialises in making cute party packs for birthday parties. Talitha has a connection with online supplier Pure Nature, which has invited her to attend courses. She's run blogs on their webpage teaching people how to make their own bath truffles, bath salts, soap, body scrub and lip balm. Talitha has always been interested in creating beautiful things. Her favourite shop was Lush where she could spend hours smelling everything. But little luxuries were expensive, and sport was her priority, so Talitha decided to start making her own. Talitha made her first lip balm at the age of five. Veronika did not want her using products with chemicals like those in some lip balms, and preferred her using natural ingredients. She bought books on how to make soap, natural beauty products, cosmetics and fragrances. She's a big fan of soap queen Anne-Marie Faiola and has watched many tutorials.

Developers have arguably never had it better. A big reason for that: there are virtually countless APIs that enable developers to build really cool applications on top of foundations that someone else invested in laying down.
When it comes to APIs, however, a lot of attention is focused on popular services that have created platforms that developers can tap in to. Facebook and Twitter are two of the most prominent, and many developers have cashed in developing on their platforms.
While there's nothing wrong building Facebook games or Twitter-based applications, some of the most useful and promising APIs out there have nothing to do with building apps for someone else's platform.
Instead, they allow developers to create useful and entertaining offerings without having to spend time building the most complicated low-level features. Here are five of these APIs developers should know about.
Video is an important part of the web, and it's only getting more important. For developers, dealing with video can be challenging because there are a variety of file formats and codecs. Fortunately, third party services like Zencoder make dealing with video a breeze. Using Zencoder's API, it's easy to build applications that accept and use user-supplied video.
Contrary to popular belief, the phone is far from dead. And there are plenty of opportunities to integrate the phone with web applications. With Twilio's API, it is possible to build applications that interact with users over the phone. Currently available in the United States and Canada, Twilio also has an API for building applications that interact with users through SMS messages.
Text might seem boring, but there's an awful lot of it on the internet. And a lot of that text contains valuable information and insight. Saplo offers a text analysis API that can be used for everything from tagging to sentiment analysis.
Adaptive Payments
PayPal's Adaptive Payments API gives developers the ability to build a wide range of payment functionality into their applications. Nifty features include chained and split payments, as well as the ability for customers to preapprove future payments.
Standalone consumer-facing location-based services are all the rage right now, but in the future, there's a good chance that lots of services will incorporate location in some fashion to create better and more relevant user experiences.
SimpleGeo offers APIs that help developers build location-aware applications without having to reinvent the wheel when it comes to determining where users are located and what's around them.

Comments (17)
Gee, wouldn't it be great if the article title called out that these were web APIs? I mean, after all, not everyone builds web apps (yes, I know, it's a dirty little secret that nobody likes to talk about, like that *special* family member we all have).
Just sayin'.
Thank for sharing! SimpleGeo looks great, gonna give it a try
Why twilio and not tropo?
Readers are done a disservice by introducing an API in vacuo, without context, with comparison with other comparable services, especially when the mentioned API is a actually a commercial service.
As noted in another comment, these are web APIs; as long as we're close to the subject, why not mention jQuery? Now *that's* an important API.
Contrary to popular belief, I am not a walking encyclopedia of APIs. I wasn't familiar with Tropo. It certainly seems like it'd be worth looking at further.
Finally, jQuery is a JavaScript library, not simply an API. I love jQuery, but the APIs listed here are all commercial APIs that provide functionality that would almost always implemented server-side.
Yahoo's YQL is a nice one. http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/
Great List, Probably not listed because of their popularity, but the Google * apis, are sure worth looking into. Twilio is the best api mentioned in this list. For a few bucks a month, you can have your home office sound like Huge business =) Tropo might be interesting, but it only does a part of what twilio does. I love apis, you can get a full coverage at http://www.programmableweb.com.
Side note ... If I post a preview and fill the captcha, you can assume I will still be human when I decide to post my comment ;)
Nice, I'd like to learn about every one listed in it. And I'll try to choose one suitable for me.
Is it possible to update the title to indicate this is for Web apps? I wouldn't have clicked on it if I'd have known! Cheers
Very useful list, thanks for sharing! Going to try some of them out.
Good thing you wrote an article about APIs then when someone commented about some missed APIs, you complained about not being an API expert. The lowest common denominator of journalism can be found in web journalism.
Thats not API, that's internet. Troll harder.
I'm not sure how you read "I am not a walking encyclopedia of APIs" to mean "I know nothing about APIs", but as you probably know, there are literally thousands upon thousands of APIs and I've yet to meet someone who knows about all of them.
By the way: the title of this post is "Five APIs that developers should know about", not "Six APIs that developers should know about", or "The world's most comprehensive list of APIs."
Cool. Those are some really interesting APIs. just love it
Interesting article but out of interest, why did you choose Twilio. I don't mean this as disrespect to them but we, along with many others, have been doing the same stuff on our SMS API www.mediaburst.co.uk/api for 10 years and without the limitation to just USA and Canada. There are services like Zeepmobile in the USA that provide similar completely free. Twilio seems like an odd choice?
I was familiar with Twilio because a friend of mine is a developer who built a pretty cool system for a client in the US using Twilio's OpenVBX.
By the way, Twilio's SMS API isn't really all that interesting. I mentioned the SMS API in passing; it's the API for voice services that is worth noting. From what I can tell, your company and Zeepmobile offer APIs for working with SMS, not voice.
By the way, a commenter above mentioned Tropo, which I wasn't familiar with. It looks pretty nifty too, as it has voice, SMS, IM and greater international availability.
Nice list. These all look to be very inspiring. Thanks!
That said, I'd like to add, I have had mixed experiences with trying to capitalize on APIs. For example, Ping.fm put their API on lock down and didn't give any sort of warning. Now I have an app (i.e., kick ass WordPress plug-in) and can't get any public keys for it. As a result of that gaff, I did some more searching and found HelloTxt.com and PixelPipe.com. Both a similar to Ping.fm. I have applied for dev access/keys for both and have yet to hear a peep back from either of them. Why say you have an API then?
I don't mean to get off topic, nor do I mean to vent. My point is, an API is only good if it works. That might be stating the obviously, but for those of us who are new to APIs it's worth mentioning that ultimately you are going to be at someone else's mercy. That may or may not be a viable position to be in for the biz model you're building. But if you're betting the farm, it probably best not to bet it on the availability and stability of someone else's API. At the very least be sure to have a Plan B, and maybe even Plan C.
Noticed that saplo seems to be closed at the moment, I was looking for a text contextual analysis API for an app I am developing and was bummed Saplo was closed, however I found another API (AlchemyAPI) that does the job and so far is very good and very easy to use, check it out (http://www.alchemyapi.com/)

From Australia:
I have diabetes but not a very good one. I do everything that I shouldn't. I have had diabetes for approximately 18 years now, and, even though I realise it, I don't seem to be able to come to terms with it. I am probably in the category that needs help.
I have not seen a specialist doctor for about 10 years now, and I know all the relevant comments about why I should (tell that to my brain). Can you smoke marijuana if you have diabetes?diabetic? I have often wondered, although I have not as yet tried. I do drink alcohol, probably far too much. I have 3 beautiful daughters and a wonderful husband. Am I the only person who has diabetes and the worst mood swings in the world or are there others?
It sounds like you are ready to work with someone to help you live better with your diabetes. That decision was not easy, and you should be proud of yourself for asking for some help. Perhaps you were motivated by thinking about your wonderful children and your husband.
The most important thing that you can do for your family, is to find a diabetes program for yourself. They can help you learn new ways of controlling your blood sugars (which will improve your mood swings!). They can help you learn to make decisions about your own care that feels right for you.
By the way, alcohol and marijuana usually lower people's mood -- make them more depressed. That does not seem to be what you're trying to accomplish right now, so it may be even more important for you to find a diabetes specialist that can help. Do this for your children so you can enjoy their childhood and one day marvel at the wonders of grandparenthood.

Media Player Classic Home Cinema 64Bit
I'm Running Windows 7 RTM 64bit but cant get Media Player Classic to play TS (Blu-Ray) Files in Media Center even though MPC is the default.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Media Player Classic Home Cinema 64Bit is a media player with builtin codecs. MediaCenter on an x64 OS is also a 64bit media player. MediaCenter uses Windows Media Foundation and fallsback to using directshow codecs when WMF fails to decode the file selected.
MediaCenter cannot access the codecs within the MPC-HC player. They are for exclusive use by that player. If you want MediaCenter to play your content you'll need to install directshow codecs capable of decoding the content.
I normally would suggest my own codecs, Shark007's FREE Codec solutions. but am afraid that build 7100 has so many decoding problems to begin with, I would not want to deal with all the issues you will come up against.
If you do try my software, install both the Win7codecs and the x64 Components addon, then, once installed, you have to open the x64 Settings Application to the MP4~MPG TAB and select Gabest as the splitter to be able to playback ripped Blueray content in MediaCenter. This isnt a default setting because it interferes with streaming online mpeg2 content.

Why is Your Museum Small?
(psst…. don't say lack of time or money)
by Carolyn Spears
by Carolyn Spears
Absolutely, without question, the Stone Fort Museum in Nacogdoches, Texas, is a small museum. Museum professionals (especially those of us working in small museums) spend a fair amount of time asking what makes a museum small. What's your budget? What's your staff size? It's not always easy to draw a line. If we've learned anything about the definition of a small museum, it is that it's relative. Recently, I've become more interested in thinking about why.
Is the Stone Fort Museum a small museum because it is a reconstruction of a small historic house? Yes, it is a small building, and yes, the structure has meaning for the town and region, but it is not, and never has, operated as a historic house museum. As a university-associated organization, it's physically possible to relocate the museum's teaching and collecting functions to a larger building, and thus abandon this small stone building. As I said, the museum is a reconstruction – albeit an old one – so we could call the building quits and call it a campus folly. Why hasn't that happened? It has never been proposed to my knowledge, and I have no interest in making that proposal. Why?
I'm not trying to ask the obvious, even if I am. By asking why we're a small museum, I'm focusing on strategic planning. I don't assume that because we are small that getting bigger is best direction. The question of size is neither an end in itself, nor a conviction of guilt. But it may be a question that will help us build a future in which we grow even if we stay the same size.
Let us hear from you:
Will 'getting bigger' further the mission of your museum? How?
If your museum grows in physical or fiscal size, what will you gain and what will you lose?

A group of Chicago aldermen proposed a package of ordinances Wednesday to generate revenue for the city's cash-strapped public schools.
The Chicago Public Schools (CPS) district has a $300 million budget gap, and schools are reportedly facing a 7 percent funding cut in the upcoming academic year.
"We've received some money from the state, but it's just not enough," Ald. Roderick Sawyer (6th) said at a press conference before the council meeting with fellow aldermen, the Chicago Teachers Union and other education advocates.
"We need to find more progressive and more viable solutions to increase revenue so that all of our schools can be adequately financed, so that we can give quality teachers an opportunity to teach in our schools," he continued. "When I had a conversation with a principal yesterday, she was perplexed that she could not hire a 20-plus year veteran school teacher because she could not afford it. That's not right."
Chicago aldermen who oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) will introduce a resolution at Wednesday's city council meeting urging the Illinois Congressional Delegation to reject the 12-nation trade agreement.
Alds. Susan Sadlowski Garza (10th), David Moore (17th), Carlos Ramirez-Rosa (35th) and Anthony Napolitano (41st) joined labor allies at City Hall Tuesday afternoon to announce the resolution, which is being proposed ahead of next week's Democratic National Convention.
"We're calling on the delegates at the Democratic National Convention to take this off part of their platform agenda so that they can look out for the working class, for the people that they are supposed to represent," Sadlowski Garza stressed.
Controversy over former Illinois congressman Joe Walsh's incendiary tweets posted last Thursday after the deadly sniper attack on Dallas police officers has spilled over into the state's 66th House District race.
The Democrat in the race, Nancy Zettler, is calling on her Republican opponent, Allen Skillicorn, to disavow Walsh's "hate-filled statements."
Walsh has faced backlash for a now-deleted tweet that threatened "war" on President Barack Obama and the Black Lives Matter movement.
Illinois caregivers, housecleaners and their advocates rallied at the Thompson Center Wednesday, urging Gov. Bruce Rauner to sign the Domestic Workers Bill of Rights.
The Illinois General Assembly approved the measure during the last legislative session and sent it to the governor on June 26.
Rauner has 60 days to take action on the legislation, which would ensure that domestic workers in Illinois are paid no less than the minimum wage, receive at least one day off a week and have protections against sexual harassment.
Magdalena Zylinska is among the 35,000 estimated domestic workers in Illinois. She's a housecleaner in Chicago who organizes domestic workers with the Arise Chicago worker center.
"Since the domestic work industry is rapidly growing, and it is a very critical part of our state, I think it is a matter of urgency for this bill to pass," she said. "Also, as domestic workers, we make all other work possible. We take care of children, aging loved ones, people living with disabilities and the homes of families. We want to be recognized as real workers, and we want to be treated with respect."
Many lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) students encounter hostile school environments and face "harsh and exclusionary disciplinary policies" that may effectively push them out of school and possibly into the criminal and juvenile justice systems.
That's according to a report released late last month from the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network (GLSEN).
"Findings from this report demonstrate that, for many LGBTQ students, schools are hostile environments that effectively function to push students out of school, depriving them of the opportunity to learn," the report reads. "When LGBTQ students feel less safe, less comfortable, and less welcome in schools, they are less likely to attend and more likely to drop out.
The following was written by Keith Kelleher, president of SEIU* Healthcare Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Kansas.
Last week, working people won a long overdue victory when the Supreme Court decided to let stand a new federal rule that prevents homecare employers from denying their workers minimum wage or overtime pay. The decision will help bring to an end a nearly 80-year policy of discrimination against more than 2 million workers who take care of our nation's elderly and people with disabilities.
It should also serve as a wake-up-call for Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner, who is trying to bully thousands of working women of color who care for our state's elderly and people with disabilities into a deal that would deny them the ability to care for their own families.
Chicago community activists and local elected officials delivered 88,000 petition signatures to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) regional office Thursday morning, urging the agency to investigate complex financial agreements called interest rate swaps.
Those who delivered the petition signatures, collected online by the Grassroots Collaborative and several other organizations, say cash-strapped local and state governments are being squeezed by the "toxic swaps" they entered into with banks before the Great Recession. The complicated deals, which come with hefty penalties and termination fees, were intended to save taxpayer-backed organizations money, but they backfired when the economy crashed.
U.S. economic growth suffers when former prisoners and convicted felons are locked out of the labor market, a new study shows.
Employment barriers faced by former offenders resulted in the estimated loss of 1.7 million to 1.9 million workers in 2014, reducing the overall U.S. employment rate by almost 1 percentage point, according to the report from the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR).
That translates into a $78 billion to $87 billion loss in annual gross domestic product (GDP) for the United States.
Workers in the gig economy and other independent contractors should be eligible for temporary unemployment benefits if they lose their jobs, according to a new report.
The Center for American Progress, Georgetown Center on Poverty and Inequality, and the National Employment Law Project have a package of proposals aimed at adapting the unemployment insurance (UI) system "for 21st century realities."
The proposed reforms include creating a "Jobseekers Allowance" for workers ineligible for traditional UI, including independent contractors and others in the "gig" or sharing economy, such as Uber and Lyft drivers. A Jobseekers Allowance would also cover individuals with limited work history, including young people transitioning from school to work and people re-entering the labor force after caring for a family member or recovering from an illness.
UI is a federal-state program that temporarily replaces wages for individuals who lost their job through no fault of their own and are actively looking for employment, among other eligibility requirements. Workers in most states can receive UI benefits, which are paid by businesses through payroll taxes, for a maximum of 26 weeks.

Barcelona (ESP) - The heat of Barcelona seems to have shuffled the cards of the 2011 Boulder World Cup, as the favorites Kilian Fischhuber and Anna Stöhr (AUT) did not make it to the podium in the competition set by Reini Fichtinger.
In the women's field, Akiyo Noguchi was the only one to complete all four problems, while the second ranked Alex Puccio just sent 2, although being very close the the top of the second boulder. Third the French Melissa Le Neve, with 2 tops in Finals and one top less than Puccio in the Semis.
Guillame Glairon Mondet seized his victory and the gold medal by flashing the fourth problem. Behind him, two Russians, Rustam Gelmanov and Dmitry Sharafutdinov, the only one to make it on problem number four together with the French winner.
Anna Stöhr and Kilian Fischhuber maintain the lead of the WC Ranking 2011, although their advantage on respectively Noguchi and Puccio has been reduced. Sheffield next week will give an hint of who could gain the World Cup 2011: after Sheffield, the Boulder World Cup will take a break until the last competition of the year, in Munich.
Unfortunately this video is less attractive than some other clips too since there was no light on the wall. The footage of the GoPros and other small chip cameras was pretty much unusable. (it would have been very helpful if some of the responsible people had been to some of the previous BWCs to learn a thing or 2) The whole event was doomed when they decided to do it in this concrete sauna imho. Route setting and of course some performances where the few highlights of this event under "Spanish boulder competitions dictatorship"...

New Module Cloaks Crackable WEP Encryption
April 02, 2007
AirDefense's new software protects enterprise investment in legacy products with old, broken encryption.
AirDefense has done it, just like everyone else, including Wi-Fi Planet. "Being security specialists, we've told customers, you can't use WEP, you can't use WEP, it's insecure!" says Dave Thomas, vice president of product strategy at the company. "And that is the case."
WEP, of course, is wired equivalent privacy
However, the reality is that many companies have spent thousands of dollars, if not much more, investing in products that simply can't be upgraded easily or at all to support the advanced security of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
The solution from AirDefense is a module for its enterprise product called WEP Cloaking. It's a solution that Thomas says offers fantastic return on investment (ROI), because the enterprise isn't replacing all its hardware, but it still gets advanced encryption that meets PCI standards.
The technology behind the WEP cloak is patented by AirDefense already, which Thomas says is one reason it took this long to come out -- they wanted to wait until they felt it was theirs free and clear. It works by fouling up the statistical analysis that WEP key-cracking products use to figure out the network encryption keys by sending out fake frames.
"We're tricking the tools and breaking their analysis," says Thomas. "It would be irresponsible for anyone to say we've solved the problem of WEP being cracked, but for the tools out there, they won't be able to do it when WEP Cloaking is running. This is a new race -- as new tools come out, we'll stay ahead of them."
Of course, this isn't limited to just retailers, the vertical industry that AirDefense is targeting with this initially. Any company running AirDefense Enterprise with older equipment could take advantage of it. And Thomas says there is no reason the tech wouldn't work at the home network level as well, but for now, AirDefense has no plans to go there.
The cost of WEP Cloaking will vary with the size of a retailer's network, but Thomas guesses it would be between $200 to $400 per site.
"There's a lot of demand for this in stores and in distribution centers for retailers, where they use many wireless devices and it's very expensive to upgrade," says Thomas.

Cassini Double Play: Enceladus and Titan
Cassini will make its closest approach to Enceladus late at night on May 17 Pacific time, which is in the early hours of May 18 UTC. The spacecraft will pass within about 435 kilometers (270 miles) of the moon's surface.
The main scientific goal at Enceladus will be to watch the sun play peekaboo behind the water-rich plume emanating from the moon's south polar region. Scientists using the ultraviolet imaging spectrograph will be able to use the flickering light to measure whether there is molecular nitrogen in the plume. Ammonia has already been detected in the plume and scientists know heat can decompose ammonia into nitrogen molecules. Determining the amount of molecular nitrogen in the plume will give scientists clues about thermal processing in the moon's interior.
The second of Cassini's two flybys is an encounter with Titan. The closest approach will take place in the late evening May 19 Pacific time, which is in the early hours of May 20 UTC. The spacecraft will fly to within 1,400 kilometers (750 miles) of the surface.
Cassini has made four previous double flybys and one more is planned in the years ahead.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. The Cassini orbiter was designed, developed and assembled at JPL.

I am a sixty-something married woman who LOVED the 60's and 70's. Rock on or Die. Your choice!
6 reasons why Baby-boomers get sad at Christmas
1. Memories
For years I struggled with depression and grief - and Christmas seemed like punishment. When I would muster up the energy, to haul out the decorations, a sense of dread came over me, as I started going through the decorations. They were like photographs in a Christmas album to me. I could remember vividly, the time, the place and the person, associated with that ornament. Instead of joyous memories, I was felt pain.
2. No energy or lack of mobility
Depression will sap your energy - while everyone in the family is going out to parties and shopping. Many are limited physically and that can be depressing. You may need a walk or wheelchair to go places, and you feel as if you are a burden, to your family.
3. Living Alone
We may be divorced, or recently lost a spouse or partner - we find ourselves alone. Our children, if we have any, might live far away, or worse - they are busy in their own lives and rarely visit. Lack of human companionship on a regular basis is not healthy. You can be a introvert, and still have some contact with people.
4. Living in nursing homes
Many miss the way, their life used to be. They miss their homes. They miss doing things their way and having more control, even though they may not have the physical means like they used to.
5. Financial stress
With limited, fixed incomes, many baby boomers and seniors are struggling, especially at Christmas. They may feel like they need to keep up - or they feel embarrassed when it is time to unwrap the gifts. Perhaps they remember a time, when money was not an issue. Now they feel like they have failed.
6. Depression
All of the above, leads to depression - and if the depression has lasted longer than a few months, professional help would be necessary. There is a normal amount of sadness and depression, during the long, dark months of winter, that hopefully will naturally lift when spring comes.
As with all of us, old and young - the magic of Christmas has nothing to do with presents - but with presence.

Ruby Rose is glad she decided not to go ahead with gender-reassignment surgery, because she wants to become a mom one day.
The out and proud lesbian actress and DJ admits she wasn't the "girly girl princess" her mom dreamed she'd be growing up in Australia, and she just wanted to be one of the boys.
"All I wanted was a boy's name growing up - Charlie, Billie, Max, Frankie...," she tells The Edit. "Everyone had Barbies; I had Ninja Turtles and Superman... I was crazy about Archie comics. I played footie (soccer) with the boys.
"(But) I'm a woman... I want to have babies one day, so I'm glad I didn't make changes earlier in my life."
But the Orange is the New Black star's immediate goal is to become a role model for kids like she used to be.
"I want to be the person I wished was around when I was growing up," she adds.
The actress, who is dating The Veronicas rocker Jessica Origliasso, has a very busy 2017 ahead of her, beginning with the release of the latest XXX: Return of the Xander Cage movie, in which she stars alongside Vin Diesel, Samuel L. Jackson, and Nina Dobrev.
"It's only when I slow down that I realize (what I've done)," she tells the online magazine. "I have pinch-me moments, like, 'Is this my life?' Because I've got four films coming out in 2017, and 18 months ago, I hadn't even made one."
She'll also be showing off her singing skills after signing on to star in Pitch Perfect 3, which starts shooting this spring (17). She joins a cast that includes fellow Aussie Rebel Wilson, Anna Kendrick, Anna Camp, and Hailee Steinfeld.

Golden Slipper winner Capitalist has failed to respond to treatment for a bruised foot and won't run in the Group 1 $1m Darley Classic (1200m) at Flemington on Saturday.
Racing Victoria posted a tweet today that the Snowden Racing Team had notified them that Capitalist won't be taking on the older horses at weight for age at the end of the week.
"Capitalist -stable informed Stewards it won't be contesting the Darley Classic," Racing Victoria tweeted.
Co-trainers Peter and Paul Snowden were forced to scratched Capitalist from the star studded Group 1 $500,000 Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) field at Flemington last Saturday when the Written Tycoon colt sustained a stone bruise to his near for foot.
That was only one incident for Capitalist who has had an interrupted Melbourne Spring Carnival campaign and was a late scratching from the Group 1 $1m Manikato Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley on October 21 when the track was downgraded to a soft 5 following some afternoon rain.
Capitalist proved to be the best two year old during the Sydney Autumn Carnival with a commanding win in the Group 1 $3.5m Longines Golden Slipper (1200m) at Rosehill but has failed to win at two starts as a three year.
The Written Tycoon colt resumed for a fourth to Star Turn in the Group 3 $150,000 Smithfield RSL Club San Domenico Stakes (1100m) at Rosehill on August 13 followed by a third to stablemate Russian Revolution in the Group 2 $300,000 The Star Roman Consul (1200m) at Randwick on October 1.
The Darley Classic is shaping up as a great contest down the Flemington straight with Coolmore Stud Stakes quinella Flying Artie and Astern among the nominations along with smart older sprinters Lankan Rupee, Fell Swoop, Malaguerra, Japonisme, Our Boy Malachi and The Quarterback.

Aldo Leopold
It is exciting to see the name of Aldo Leopold, one of this country's foremost conservationists and most inspiring environmental writers, come up occasionally on observer cards being transcribed for the North American Bird Phenology Program. Leopold is probably one of the most famous names we will see among the over 3000 participants in NABPP, but it is not at all surprising to find him included. He and his family practiced the "sport and recreation" of phenology at their rural Wisconsin cabin, keeping records of the first spring flowers and of migrating birds, and Leopold's writings encouraged scientists, farmers, and game managers to enhance their ecological perception through phenology, the study of nature's timing.
Rand Aldo Leopold was born in Burlington, Iowa, on January 11, 1887, to a family of prosperous German immigrants and nature lovers. He learned fishing, hunting, and sportsmanship from his father. In 1903, the same year that President Theodore Roosevelt and John Muir met in Yosemite, the Leopold family vacationed in Estes Park and Yellowstone National Park. Since his childhood, using his grandmother's opera glasses for observations, Aldo had studied birds and on this trip west, he brought his ornithology journal along to record the 40 new bird species he saw. He enjoyed drawing birds, and soon acquired the habit of using a camera to record them and their habitats.
Leopold completed a master's degree in forestry at Yale, passed his civil service exams, and in 1909 was assigned to the Apache National Forest in Arizona Territory. Forest Assistant Leopold and his team of "timber cruisers" had a rough but adventurous life of surveying and fire fighting. Later assignments in northern New Mexico and Arizona in national forest lands spanning 20 million acres gave Leopold ample opportunity to study overgrazing, poor logging practices, and soil erosion and to experience varied environments of mountain, desert, plateau, and river valley. It was during this period that he began writing, publishing, and lecturing. Leopold eventually authored over 500 publications and left a legacy of many unpublished journals, letters, and field notes.
In 1933 the University of Wisconsin hired Leopold to head a graduate program in game management. A year later, he was part of the group founding the Wilderness Society "to organize an aggressive society for the preservation of wilderness." While raising his family in Madison, Leopold taught classes at the university and was one of the first to encourage female graduate students to get involved in ecology studies. He continued travels to Germany to study forests and south to the deserts of Chihuahua from which he gained a new understanding of "unspoiled wilderness and healthy biotas." He delivered a series of university radio talks on topics like "Plant Evergreens for Bird Shelters" and worked on a manuscript of reflections he gathered from years spent near Baraboo, Wisconsin, where the family's "shack" was their "week-end refuge from too much modernity." This book, which he titled "Great Possessions," was published shortly after his death as A Sand County Almanac.
By my count, Leopold included references to 65 different birds in his Sand County Almanac. The book, which has sold over one million copies, begins and ends with the chickadee and in between presents vivid observations on birds, animals, plants, people, and their shared environment gathered from a lifetime of noticing the little things. Who can forget the July chapter in which the author vividly identifies 16 different bird songs heard from 3:30 a.m. until sunrise? And one of Leopold's most often-quoted lines appears in the introduction to this book where he wrote, "the opportunity to see geese is more than important than television."
Aldo Leopold died at his Sand County property on April 21, 1948. We are fortunate that his archives, amounting to almost 28 linear feet, are now digitally preserved and available through the University of Wisconsin. Through them we can see his handwriting, read unpublished journals and correspondence, and look at portraits of him at various points in his life. It is particularly moving to see family snapshots of Leopold's beloved wife and children, homes, dogs (Spud, Flip, Flick, Gus), pet crows, tree planting at the "shack," and the many study projects with his students the "wildlifers."

Shinhwa Releases BTS Videos From Their Asia Tour
After making their highly anticipated return to K-Pop earlier this year, Shinhwa recently visited many different Asian countries for their 2012 Grand Tour THE RETURN.
Today they released two special behind the scenes videos from their tour. The first one features clips from Taiwan, China, Singapore while the second features clips from Japan. Their songs "Be My Love" and "Breathing" from their comeback album "The Return" were also used the as background tracks.
From the start of the first video, we see an explosive response from fans and media. Dance practices, photo shoots, recordings, concert footage and more also seen.
The group came back in March with their first album in four years and promoted their title track "Venus." While each of the members will be busy for the rest of the year with individual activities, they hope to release a new album each year.

And usually this happens when noone is at their house for a few days. So I thought that I could reboot it via telnet from my mobile phone or some other computer. The problem is that I can't login with telnet. Has anyone tried this? What do i have to do to access the router? TIA, Sam

I don't think I've ever quoted Mao Tse-Tung before, but this little aphorism spoke to me this morning:
"We think too small. Like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view."
We tend to think within the limits of what we know. To see other possibilities requires us to step outside of what we know, which for many of us can be a scary place. We take comfort in the fact that if we do 'X' we know we'll get 'Y' as a result. It's a control thing. We feel better if we have control (even if that control is an illusion).
But like the frog, I wonder what would happen if you pushed the boundaries of your comfort zone, what would you see?
What possibilities await you?

December 20, 2014
My thoughts remain fixated on the terrible attack at Army Public School in Peshawar, Pakistan. The killing of 145 people, most of whom were but children, is a hard thing to shake. Coming in the wake of a terrible hostage taking in Sydney and amidst the ongoing wave of evil and subjugation propagated by ISIS, the attack has left many asking what has happened to humanity. If people in the world cannot recognize so much as the innocence of children, then what possible hope can we have for our future? If the flag bearers of the world to come are taken away from us, then what does this say about the world and time in which we live?
This is an event that touches us all. According to the Islamic tradition, the Prophet Mohammad once said that to kill one is to kill all of humanity. Whether you accept him as a prophet of God or not, certainly we can all accept the universality of the statement. It asserts the same sentiment of John Donne that no man is an island. Like it or not, we're in this together.
Since the attack, I have seen tweets flatly stating "Shame on Humanity." I have seen a cartoon of a freshly dug grave with only the word "HUMANITY" etched on the tombstone. I have seen pictures of the aftermath of what one can do to another, to so many others, in the confines of a school building. It's saddening, challenging, and leaves anything but optimism for all those exposed to it.
But while the event challenges our belief in humanity, may our response reaffirm our faith in it. We cannot define ourselves by what happens to us. Rather, how we give definition to ourselves is by how we deal with the cards that we are dealt. This is as true on an individual level as it is on an international one. Even in the wake of such terrible tragedy, we have been about the work of defining our humanity.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack, people in Peshawar were lining up to give blood to the victims. In cities across Pakistan, the United States, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere, candlelight vigils have shed light on the power of solidarity amidst human tragedy. If we believe in humanity, as such events so clearly demonstrate that we do, then surely we believe in the power of good will. It is just such good will that I have seen manifested in an effort to assuage the pain of those most closely affected by the event.
And if we believe in humanity, then we must put all humans in it. We must not allow ourselves the convenience of dismissing the perpetrators of such crimes as "animals" or any other type of non-humans. No, we must face the fact cold and true that the people responsible this attack and others like it are just that – people. We must accept the fact that somehow there are people in the world who feel justified in committing such a heinous act of violence. We must accept the fact that there are conditions in our world, our very human world, that have brought people to the point of accepting wanton killing as a righteous act. We must accept the fact that there exist man-made reasons as to why people feel that it is okay to kill. It is in the hope that by understanding such reasons that we can work to remove the ills that lead to such inhumane acts in our society.
Finally, may we resist the urge to see this attack as but another event in the saga of terrorism that we so readily apply to a place like Pakistan. For many, this act is but the latest indication of the way things have always been and will always be in that faraway country. It need not be this way – indeed, it shouldn't.
I do not believe in inevitability so much that I do not think people are incapable of righting a wrong. While we cannot change what has been done, we have all the power in the world to shape that which has yet to come. Considering ourselves powerless to positively change the way things are is hardly a testament to the human spirit. We've always accepted the challenge and, despite our faults, have been done better for it. That is the humanity I know.
In the wake of such tragedy, may we recourse to our shared humanity and be about the necessary work to mitigate such evil in our time and for our future. We owe it to ourselves, and to the 145 souls we lost but a short time ago.

The Neuroimaging Laboratory (NiL) at the Centre for Healthy Brain Ageing (CHeBA) was established in 1991 in response to a need for the assessment of brain images, in order to improve our understanding of the brain in health and disease.
The Laboratory brings together the knowledge and experience of a diverse group of researchers whose work is highly interdisciplinary.
One of the key requirements of neuroimaging research is the multi-disciplinary collaborations between neuroscience, engineering, medicine and a host of sub-disciplines. While the research subjects and the clinical needs are provided by medicine, the theoretical underpinnings come from mathematics and statistics, and the methodological approaches from computer science and biomedical engineering, all forming critical components of the enterprise.
The Laboratory houses one computer cluster with 144 CPUs and over 10 workstations (both Windows and Linux), as well as two data archival systems of about 30 terabytes. The MR images we study include 3D T1-weighted scans, T2-weighted (such as FLAIR sequence) scans, DTI (diffusion tensor imaging), 1H MRS (magnetic resonance spectroscopy), functional MRI (fMRI), Gd-perfusion MRI (pMRI), and will extend to ASL (arterial-spin labelling), Gd-perfusion MRI (pMRI), fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT). NiL hosts several research students (PhD candidates, Master by Research and Honours students) and post-doctoral fellows. NiL is a very important and successful component of CHeBA and a regular stream of high quality publications have emanated from NiL in the last few years. NiL staff have also created and written many versatile and important neuroimaging processing programs/algorithms and scripts in C, MATLAB, Perl, and Python. The equipment purchased over time has been funded by competitive individual research grants.
NiL is dedicated to researching the ageing of the human brain. By studying structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging and other neuroimaging modalities, we aim to improve understanding of brain ageing pathways, which in turn will lead to clinical advances in prediction, diagnosis and treatment. Our neuroimaging studies address normal ageing, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia.
Our Lab is interested in computational neuroanatomy, the development of a comprehensive structural and functional model of the brain. The distribution of structural changes in the human brain reflect the underlying pathology. The increasing sophistication of MRI allows neuroanatomical structures to be visualised, in vivo, in unprecedented detail. Clinical MRI is able to give good soft-tissue contrast and high spatial (<1 mm) resolution. Due to rapid advances in computing power and algorithm development, we are now well placed to study the extraordinary MRI-visible morphological variability of the human brain through mathematical models sensitive to subtle changes in neuroanatomical shape, complexity and tissue characteristics. Our recent work includes the mapping and modeling of cerebral white matter hyperintensities, algorithm development for examining the shapes and sizes of brain structures and cortical atrophy and, most recently, structural brain connectivity using DTI tractography.
Opportunities with NiL
The Neuroimaging Laboratory welcomes students from a variety of disciplines (including engineering, mathematics, statistics and IT) to join us for vacation work experience. We welcome both local and international students. In particular, we encourage students who are considering post-graduate studies and are actively looking for thesis topics. We hope that our Laboratory's research environment will provide students with excellent exposure to the exciting and challenging research field of neuroimaging. While the jobs are voluntary, we are happy to negotiate some stipends for students who contribute to our current research projects.
Neuroimaging data
The connectivity data of all cognitively healthy elderly subjects as analysed by Perry et al (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2015.04.009), collected as part of the Sydney Memory and Ageing Study (MAS), is publicly available here. You will first have to register for access here.

A Healthier Life Through Chiropractic Care
Let's face it. Today's lifestyle doesn't provide us with many opportunities to stay healthy. Between long commutes and spending hours sitting in front of a computer, we don't give ourselves many options to move around much.
However, this inactivity can cause people to suffer from a variety of issues such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Most Atlanta chiropractors recommend that those suffering from these ailments receive treatment.
Another factor affecting our lives in a negative way is nutrition. With an abundance of fast food, junk food, and processed food, it makes it difficult to eat healthy on a regular basis. If you are looking to enhance your chiropractic care, Atlanta chiropractors state that proper nutrition can enhance the treatment.
While some aspects of nutrition may appear to be easy to remember, it helps to put it all into perspective. One of the key elements to good nutrition is hydration. When you're thirsty, your best option is water. Water is an essential part of our body, especially our joints. It keeps our joints lubricated which will prevent any excess friction or wear known to cause osteoarthritis. Dehydration will also cause the discs in your spine to become stiff which could lead to potential injury and a limited range of motion.
While we all know a balanced diet is good for our health, it's also an essential part of musculoskeletal health. When you eat the correct portion of protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, you provide your muscles and bones with the right elements to stay healthy. Every essential nutrient plays an important role in your overall health but it's important to pay attention to a few that stand out.
Calcium promotes healthy bones and can prevent osteoporosis. Omega-3 can reduce inflammation along with many other health benefits. Your Atlanta chiropractor may also recommend that you supplement your diet with glucosamine or chondroitin, especially if you are at risk for osteoarthritis. Glucosamine can prevent cartilage breakdown in joints and chondroitin can actually help rebuild it.
There is some controversy about adding these supplements to your diet. Some research shows the favorable results from them while others have shown no improvements from taking them. Since glucosamine and chondroitin may interact with some prescription medicines, you may want to consult with your doctor before including them in your diet.
Overall, staying active and eating the right nutrients will help to keep you healthy. Consult with your local Atlanta chiropractor to find out more information on how chiropractic care can enhance a healthy lifestyle.

Armstrong Atlantic Keeps Winning, Advances To First Regional Final
Nov. 22, 2008
WINGATE, N.C. - The third-seeded Armstrong Atlantic State volleyball squad advanced to its first-ever NCAA Division II Volleyball Regional final with a 3-2 win over sixth-seeded Lincoln Memorial on Saturday evening in the Southeast regional, hosted by Wingate in Cuddy Arena. Game scores were: 28-26, 25-18, 24-26, 24-26, 15-6.
AASU is just the third Peach Belt Conference school to advance to the regional final, and the first since North Florida in 2004. No Peach Belt team has ever advanced to the NCAA Volleyball Elite Eight. The Pirates will have that opportunity on Sunday evening at 7:00 p.m. against either the top-seeded and host Wingate or fourth-seeded Catawba.
"For being the first time [in the region final], it's a great thing for the players," AASU head coach Will Condon said. "They've worked very hard to get this point - and I think they've earned it, especially in these last two matches."
The match was filled with individual highlights as Pirate senior Rindy Vidovich became just the sixth player in AASU history to record her 1,000th career kill, and sophomore setter Hannah Segebart set a career high in assists on a second straight night with 71.
It was a second straight tight five-game affair in regional action for the Pirates, as three of the five games were decided by just two points. AASU looked like they would close out game one, leading 24-21, but LMU got two kills from Amanda Horenkamp and a service ace from Ashley Knight to tie things up at 24-24. Gwen Clarke and Michele Remlinger picked up back-to-back kills at 26-all to give AASU the game.
In game two, AASU jumped out to a 9-2 lead, and eventually stretched that lead to 20-12 before closing out the game with a 25-18 win. The Pirates got six kills from Gwen Clarke and hit .364 in the game to take the commanding 2-0 advantage.
The Pirates had a golden opportunity to put away the match in the third game. With the score tied at 19-all, Vidovich picked up the Pirates' next two kills to give AASU a 21-19 advantage. At 24-23, Torrie Bevolo's angle attack was called just out, keeping the Railsplitters in the match. Lincoln Memorial took advantage, blocking the next two Pirate attacks to force a game four, 26-24. Nine errors contributed to the Pirates' demise in game three as they hit just .156.
Game four saw attacking errors plague the Pirates again as they had nine, hitting just .176 in dropping game four, 26-24. But in game five, the Pirates left little doubt, jumping out to a quick 10-3 lead and closing out the match, 15-6, hitting .370 with 11 kills and just error. Vidovich picked up her 1,000th career kill in the fifth game, at 2-all, becoming the first player to reach the 1,000 kill plateau since Traci Knuth in 2006.
"I think both teams had their opportunities thorughout the entire match," Condon said. "We just didn't make plays [in game 3 and 4] and they did. I told them before game five that we've been the first team to 15 in every game - and now we're paying to 15, not to 25.
"That eased the tension a little bit. I think game five is always about who wants it the most, and tonight I think our players did."
Vidovich led all players on the night with 24 kills as she led a quintet of Pirates in double-figure kills. Junior Gwen Clarke hit .364 with 15 kills, while junior Michele Remlinger hit .480 with 13 kills and Bevolo also notched 13 kills. Segebart tallied her career-high 71 assists and freshman Casey Howett (24) and junior Marina Marinova (22) also recorded 20+ digs for AASU.
Lincoln Memorial was led by Horenkamp's team-high 20 kills to go with 21 digs. Ashley Knight added 11 kills, while Lauren Kiwacka notched 45 assists and Alicia MacIntyre recorded a match-high 28 digs.
The Pirates hit .250 for the match and notched 76 kills, tied for the fifth-most in a five-game match in AASU history. Lincoln Memorial hit .218 and outblocked the Pirates, 7-5, but AASU recorded nine service aces and outdug the Railsplitters, 99-85.

New health center to serve uninsured
From left, N.C. Rep. Edith Warren, N.C. Sen. Clark Jenkins, Dr. Tom Irons of East Carolina University, Susan Bernstein, Doug Smith of Greene County Health Care, Diane Poole of University Health Systems of Eastern Carolina, Torlen Wade of the N.C. Office o
GREENVILLE, N.C. (Oct. 25, 2005) — Officials broke ground in north Greenville today for a new community health center designed especially to serve the uninsured.
The 15,000-square-foot, $2.8 million James D. Bernstein Community Health Center will be built on 3.5 acres near the intersection of N.C. 11 and 33. Construction should begin next month and the building should open by next fall, according to Dr. Tom Irons, East Carolina University associate vice chancellor for regional health services and board member of Access East.
Access East, an independent, charitable, non-profit organization, will build and own the center. That group, Eastern Carolina Community Health Centers of Snow Hill and the East Carolina University Division of Health Sciences will operate the center. Federal Public Health Act funds will subsidize operating costs. The act authorizes support for centers that meet certain requirements such as providing programs specifically for the uninsured and turning no patients away.
Full-time and volunteer health care professionals will staff the center. They will provide primary care, dental care and pharmacy services for low-income people in Pitt and surrounding counties, said Irons, who is directing the project. He estimated the center will see as many as 15,000 patients annually within five years. While the center will focus on the uninsured, it will accept all patients who wish to use its services, Irons said. Those without insurance will be billed on a sliding scale according to their income.
The center will be dedicated to the memory of Bernstein, who founded and directed the N.C. Office of Rural Health for more than 30 years. Bernstein died of cancer in June, and his widow, Susan, participated in todays groundbreaking.
"Jim placed community health centers all over the state, many of them still in operation," Irons said. "Over the years, he became one of the most respected and loved rural health leaders in America. He was an especially strong advocate for us in the East. He was very much involved in the planning of this project, and we are thankful to be able to give it his name."
The center will include 16 medical exam rooms, eight dental operatories and areas for audiology, X-ray, social work and other services, many of which arent available at local health departments. Pitt County public health, social services and mental health departments will provide services as well. The center will also will have space for meetings and educational programs for the community and health sciences students. Patients will be seen primarily by appointment.
"The community health center is the only sustainable health care delivery model to meet the needs of the underserved," said Michelle Brooks, administrator of regional health plans with Access East. "Not only will this center improve health status, particularly among the poor, but it will house programs and services that will build both individual and community capacity to improve socio-economic standing as well."
The land and site development, valued at $538,500, have been donated by E.R. Lewis Construction. The Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust has pledged $300,000, the Pitt Memorial Hospital Foundation has pledged $225,000, The Duke Endowment has pledged $200,000 and the N.C. Office of Rural Health has committed $200,000 toward construction. Funds from other state and federal agencies and private foundations are pending.
The PMH Foundation raises and distributes money for projects at Pitt County Memorial Hospital and community health projects within Pitt County.
The Duke Endowment was established in 1924 by industrialist and philanthropist James Buchanan Duke. Its mission is to serve the people of North Carolina and South Carolina by supporting higher education, health care, children's welfare and spiritual life. The endowment ranks among the largest foundations in the nation, with grants since 19
