I've been so busy getting things done in April that I haven't even really thought about what I want to accomplish in May (not that I usually think very far ahead, anyway). Obviously, I plan to Blog Every Day in May with Rosalilium and to work my butt off to get everything ready to open my business when I'm no longer officially employed by someone else, but there are other things I need to think about, too, so here's my list of May Goals.
Personal Goals:
- I'm not going to call it a "date night" because that has proven to be dangerous for the health of Den's family, but I am going to (hopefully) arrange an evening where just the two of us can go to Pinot's Palette and paint. As cheesey as I find most of their date night paintings, I really like this one, and it beats having 2 of the exact same painting. So maybe I should just officially call this goal Go to Pinot's Palette.
- Keep on top of my schedule. I know I've said this one before, and I've actually been doing pretty well at scheduling things and really doing them, but I have a bad habit of getting the ball rolling on something like this and completely coming to a standstill because I'm so busy patting myself on the back for what I've done that I stop looking at what I still need to do. Keeping up with my schedule is not one of those goals I can cross off my list and be done with it - I have to list it every month because it's a forever goal. My ECLP (click here for $10 off your own epic planner) definitely makes it easier to keep up with, though.
Fitness Goals: (yeah, this should be funny)
UCKSSAKE!!! Seriously. This NEEDS to be crossed off my to-do list. The Renaissance Run is coming up this month, but I've waited so long to register that prices through the roof. I need to find a different obstacle run if I don't bite the bullet and sign up for this one, though. I also found a 5K in Shreveport that I can do the weekend I visit - 2 5Ks in one month after not running for far too long??? This might just be the motivation I need to get back out there. We'll see by month's end how this all plays out.....
- Buy a scale. My scale died a looooong time ago, and while fitness isn't a number on the scale, seeing that number usually helps motivate me. I know I've gained back a lot of weight lately, but I haven't been
dietingeating smart or exercising, so I can't exactly complain about it, but if I don't start monitoring it, I know I won't be motivated.
- Join the YMCA. We just got done paying off one of our bills, and that money could totally go towards a family Y membership. Dennis isn't sold on the idea because he thinks we're too busy to go regularly, but I'm going to try to change his mind with the argument of swim lessons for Jack and free Parent's Night Out child care on Friday nights.
Financial Goals:
- No overdrafts.
- Streamline how I use my multiple bank accounts for budgeting (and maybe even post about it).
- Figure out what to do with our tax return. Pay bills? A big house maintenance project? Bookcases and shelves in the living room? Decisions, decisions....
Home Goals:
- Now that I have the house in a semi-presentable state, I hope to keep it that way. I'm already doing consistent weekly cleanings (that I dub my Power Hour), and I've started to implement more of the FlyLady system. I need to find the balance of keeping the house maintained and having systems/to-do's without overwhelming myself.
- FINALLY HANGING THE ART IN JACK'S ROOM!!! Enough said.
Business Goals:
- This needs its own blog post. In short, get my business and space ready to open. My first official day of business is slated for May 26th.
- Organize my Jamberry business supplies. Obviously I won't be focusing on Jamberry this month, but I hope to get back to it in June, but in the mean time, my business stuff has been getting more and more disorganized. I could easily spend an hour or two one night after Jack goes to bed just organizing all my supplies. Having them organized will make it so much easier when I get back to it and it'll make me feel like I'm not 100% ignoring Jamberry.
Blog Goals:
- Blog Every Day in May. Duh. Or if not every day (um, this was supposed to go up last night, but tired), then have a total of 31 posts this month.
- Read some of the other #BEDM blogs. I'm crazy busy and lucky to just get my posts up at the end of the day, but I hope to be able to support some of the other bloggers taking this challenge. I should schedule time to binge read/comment on other's posts.
There - I think that's MORE than enough to keep me busy for quite a long time. Now, I'm off to paint.....what do you have cooking in May?

How many botanists do you know? For many people, the answer is none and that's a problem because land managers and governments at the town, county, state and federal level need botanists to determine what habitats to prioritize, to make recommendations about how best to restore lost habitat and to monitor the success of restoration efforts. Unfortunately, the number of trained botanists in the US has dropped over the last several decades. This decline has major repercussions for related fields like horticulture. As conservation biologist Joshua Tewksbury and his colleagues wrote in the journal Bioscience, "The benefits of careful observation of organisms in their environment and the costs of pursuing environmental policies in which this critical component of science is ignored can be seen in human health, food security, conservation and management."
Field botanists help horticulturists understand a garden's local context. Janet Ebert, a Pennsylvania-based botanist whose clients include Mt. Cuba Center, Longwood Gardens, and The Nature Conservancy, teaches horticulturists to think about plants not just as individuals with attractive properties, but as members of communities. Understanding the region's native plants allows gardeners to match plants to proposed garden habitats and create functional communities that support insects, birds, and other animals. When developing a new garden or integrating natural land with a designed landscape, Ebert advises, "be patient and work with the system you've got rather than starting with a vision of what you want." For example, if conditions are tough, she recommends prioritizing species that will thrive and compete over rare, sensitive, or photogenic species. For low-maintenance areas of the garden, she looks to roadside plants, identifying natives that survive in disturbed conditions alongside aggressive species.
To understand when and how to restore habitats, field botanists must know what healthy ecosystems look like and recognize threats to biodiversity, such as development, invasive species, and imbalances in the food web. All the botanists with whom I spoke have seen the loss of both habitat and species in their areas. Over-browsing by white-tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus) has diminished habitat in many places. In Delaware, Ebert noticed that the deer eat tulip tree saplings (Liriodendron tulipfera) before the trees have a chance to establish. These native saplings used to be one of the first colonizers of disturbed sites. Increasingly, Ebert sees invasive plant species overrunning such sites. Whereas, in the past, she watched vacant lots develop over time into plant communities that were mostly native – forming habitat for birds and insects – such spaces now exhibit much less plant diversity, and a narrower range of animals. She believes, "Abandoned land now needs to be actively managed because otherwise it just becomes a mess." James "Spider" Barbour, a botanist who works with a Hudson Valley environmental consulting firm and the research institute Hudsonia, has found fallow land in his area to support many species and worries that development of such small parcels poses a threat to biodiversity. He told me, "the benignly neglected triangle of land across the road from our house was a wild bastion of biodiversity when we first lived here, full of wild native grasses and wildflowers, teeming with insects, that changed its cast night and day… Now it's half gravel and half blacktop."
While the above changes may go unnoticed by most people, other forms of ecosystem damage are harder to ignore. For example, Barbour watched the emerald ash borer ( Agrilus planipennis), sweep through his town destroying every ash tree (Fraxinus sp.) more than a few feet tall. In many parts of the Northeast, lesser celandine (Ficaria verna) has taken over the stream banks, pushing out spring wildflowers like bluebells (Mertensia virginica) and spring beauty (Claytonia virginica). When the lesser celandine goes dormant in summer, it leaves barren the banks that normally would support a complex matrix of plants.
Over the last several decades, many universities have shut down their Botany departments or consolidated them with other natural history departments, like Zoology, into larger, umbrella departments. According to a report put out by the Chicago Botanic Garden in partnership with other gardens and several federal agencies, "In 1988, 36 of the top 50 universities with the largest federally financed research and development programs in biology offered doctorate degrees in plant biology or botany. By 2006, 19 of those 36 universities cut their doctorate program in plant biology/botany." Today's Biology programs tend to emphasize molecular biology, biophysics and ecological modeling, more than field study involving observation and description of plants and other organisms. Many scientists argue that traditional botany is still relevant to these newer areas of study because it supplies the details necessary for recognizing larger patterns, like how ecosystems respond to climate change. While training at the university level remains crucial, I should point out that the botanists I interviewed for this post did not receive advanced degrees in botany. They learned the plant communities of our region by traipsing through local woodlands, meadows and wetlands with a mentor, a loupe and a field guide.
Normally in this blog, I write about what's happening on the High Line, but field botanists contribute to our work indirectly in many important ways that are worth examining. Their expertise informs how we look at plant relationships, select new species and respond to new threats. Who will provide this knowledge in the future, if we do not train the next generation of botanists? While Dr. Tewksbury and other academics urge universities to expand course offerings in natural history disciplines, like botany, they also recognize the need to "lower the barriers associated with collecting, analyzing, and sharing" knowledge. Through collaboration between academics, practitioners, and citizen scientists we can deepen our understanding of local ecosystems and how best to manage them.

If there were any doubts about the value of data analytics for healthcare organizations to turn data into actionable insights, a new book from the American Health Information Management Association attempts to put those doubts to rest and provide step-by-step instructions for analyzing data and using statistical techniques.
The co-authors of the book—David Marc and Ryan Sandefer, faculty members at the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, Minn.—argue that proficiency in data analytics is increasingly important for all health information managers and health informaticians as the industry embraces quality improvement initiatives.
Their book, Data Analytics in Healthcare Research: Tools and Strategies, includes case studies on how to conduct healthcare data analytics, providing insights on databases and statistical software for data extraction, normalization, transformation, visualization, and statistical analyses.
Health Data Management spoke with Marc, an assistant professor at the College of St. Scholastica and the graduate program director for health informatics, who previously worked for a biotech company where he developed predictive data models for the diagnosis of neurological and immunological diseases.
HDM: How will your book help healthcare organizations as they venture into the area of data analytics?
Marc: The book offers them the opportunity to really learn how to do data analysis. And, the way that we formatted this book was to give a very hands-on delivery method to maximize their understanding of how to do analytics—a tremendously growing area in healthcare today. We have more and more data that's being collected, particularly data in an electronic format because of the growth of electronic health records. As a result, there's greater need for having trained professionals that know how to work with data. Those healthcare organizations that know how to leverage the use of data and to make decisions based on that data have a leg up on the competition.
HDM: You have argued that proficiency in data analytics is increasingly important for all health information managers and health informaticians. How so, and what about clinicians?
Marc: It really is important. We see it as a core competency within the health information management field and health informatics. No matter what your role is—whether you are a health information management director or an interface analyst or coder—you need to know how to work with data and to analyze it because it's going to help you in performing your job. You will be using some form of data analysis throughout your career working in healthcare. And, I would say it's even broader than that. It's not just health information management or health informatics professionals. Data analytics is important for most people working in healthcare today. If you are a provider, you need to know how to identify trends—the hallmark of being a practitioner today—as we get to more personalized medicine that is tailored specifically to the individual needs of patients to make more informed decisions that result in better health outcomes. Organizations need to utilize that patient data collectively for decision making as well. So, data analytics really does impact a diverse group of professionals in a variety of different roles.
HDM: Do these professionals have the necessary skills and experience in terms of data analytics to perform at that level?
Marc: Currently, I think there is a skills gap. At healthcare organizations, in hospitals in particular, there's more and more reporting requirements because of changes in the way that medical services are being paid for by payers and they need to have proof that they're obtaining better outcomes. We're at a point where many individuals don't feel like they're prepared to handle those reporting requirements or have a good understanding of how to work with this data. There's generally a skills gap in the profession right now. That's why there's a main focus in building curriculum in colleges and universities so that we can ensure students graduating from these programs have the necessary skills to take on these tasks.
HDM: Putting human resource issues aside for a minute, how about computing resources? Are healthcare organizations making the investments they need to make in hardware and software for this kind of data analysis?
Marc: There's been major growth in health information technology, particularly in the area of data analytics. Many IT vendors are creating products for that specific need. So, there's growth in the vendor space. And, there's beginning to be more growth on the clinical side as well. More hospitals and clinics are looking at adopting platforms that can help facilitate the analysis of this data. Now, many of these are costly systems that require quite a financial investment. But, there are other alternatives as well that healthcare organizations can look at using, such as open-source analytics tools. In fact, that's what we cover in our book—how to use tools that are freely available and are open source. For instance, we use MySQL Workbench which is a free database software tool and it can help manage large databases, providing a nice visual for interacting with the data. And, then, there's R—another tool. It's free data analytics software and is one of the fastest growing platforms in the world. It's beginning to be used in healthcare more and more.
HDM: You also talk in your book about the open-source data available from a variety of federal agencies including the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Health Resources and Services Administration, Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, and the U.S. Census Bureau.
Marc: Yes, this is another important area. There is so much data available that can be leveraged by consumers for making more informed decisions about where they want to go to receive care, but also for healthcare organizations so they track their performance over time and can make decisions regarding performance relative to others using these public data sources. We have used this public data to build a database. Those that purchase our book actually get a relational database with it that essentially combines many of these public data sources so you can gain information not just by looking at a single public database in isolation.
HDM: Relational databases, such as EHR systems, organize data into columns, rows and tables, forcing information into predetermined categories. However, the problem is that while these databases are ideal for data that is easily structured, they cannot handle unstructured data as easily. What about non-relational databases as a solution for this kind of data?
Marc: NoSQL doesn't follow the traditional tabular relations used in relational databases. However, in healthcare, we are still at a point where we're trying to find structured means of storing the data. I do anticipate in the future we will see greater growth in healthcare utilizing the NoSQL non-relational database structure, particularly as the industry transitions to collecting different forms of data such as images or long narratives of text such as clinician notes and being able to store that in less of a schematic way. For now, the need is for people who understand data that is stored in a structured way using SQL and relational databases. While we will see growth in NoSQL, the necessary competencies and skills lie in having individuals who know how to work the relational database so they can help facilitate the storage, retrieval, and analysis of that data.

SA's Got Talent Judges Not Too Talented
You'll remember that I wrote about who I think should judge South Africa's got talent here. And a little more here.
Well much to my dismay I've just read that the self proclaimed music maestro of South Africa, Randall Abrahams is going to be a judge on the new show.
How sad is that?! I can only imagine how Seth Rotherham over at 2oceansvibe.com is going to react to this disturbing latest development,what with his well known public humiliation spat with Randall here.
Seth 7 – Randall 0
We had a chance to do something different on this show and we blew it.
Tonight is carrying this article:
From a frumpy 40-something Scotswoman and a 16-year-old street dancer to a Texas-born ventriloquist and an insurance-selling male opera singer, the British and US versions of the Got Talent? franchise have proved to be a true testament to the natural gifts of "the everyman".
But while the likes of Susan Boyle may suddenly find themselves thrust into the full glare of the showbiz spotlight, it's the men and women seated at the judges' desk who are ultimately responsible for a reality show's make or break factor. So much so, the folks affording contestants the yay or nay verdict have been known to become celebrities in their own right.
Just ask Simon Cowell.
Thanks to his cutting (and often controversial) criticisms of contenders on American Idol and The X-Factor over the years, he of the man-boobs is now a recognised name the world over. Would that Cowell's South African counterpart, Randall Abrahams, could someday find himself in a similar position.
Having only recently vacated his adjudicator's seat on Idols V, we can exclusively reveal that Abrahams (with Ian von Memerty and Shado Twala) is again poised to offer up his trademark dead-pan expression as a judge on SA's Got Talent.
You can read the rest of the article here.
Love the manboobs chirp. Nice!
The rest of the judges are pretty cool I guess. It's nice that Anele Mdoda is compering, she has a sharp wit. Can't say I know too much about the rest.
The UK took it upon themselves to show us the grace and beauty of Amanda Holden week in and week out.
We choose Randall.
Can't say Im enjoying that vibe. Let's Recap… and little liked judge, no eye candy, lack of wit… hmmm this is sure to be a winner! I hope I'm wrong!
Oh wait I just remembered I only do DSTV, cos thats the way I like to roll.

Shadow - what a graceful lady. I have just watched S A 's got talent and wow! She is just such a beautiful person. Ian you are such a magical person. I love your spirit. I remember you from your own dancing shows. Randall - I love your sense of humour. Kindest regards Eve
Randall, just love him to bits!!!! What a great judge.
Shadow Twala. What a great lady. We are proud of you. Please use her in the next idol compitition.

Signs That Rats Are Invading Your Home
Realizing there are rats infesting your home or business could be one of the more disturbing, disgusting discoveries you could make—rats are known to spread disease, contaminate both pet and human food, and damage property. They can even introduce disease-carrying parasites such as ticks and fleas into your home. Needless to say, the sooner you take action against the infestation, the better for you, your family and your business. In order to do this, though, you have to know what signs to look for, signs that could tell you that you and your property are quite literally under attack.
Here are some of the most common signs rats are invading your home:
- Rat droppings in various places
- Scratching and scuffling noises
- Packages or cables that have been chewed through
- Greasy rub marks on walls or skirting boards
- Paw prints
Call (08) 6311 4056 – Immediate Help
Any one of these signs alone is enough to suspect you may be under invasion by rats, so if you are observing even one of these occurrences at your home or business, it would be best to look further into the matter before the rats multiply and it becomes more difficult and messy to remove them.
- Rats can produce tens of droppings per night, so this is a definite sign of a rat infestation. Many rat droppings are are usually found in on place, and they are usually dark brown in color, and shaped like and oversized grain of rice. If you find anything like this on your property, it's time to take action.
- Odd, unexplained noises are also pretty much a dead giveaway. Rats love to climb, and so if they are in your home, they will be going everywhere they can reach or fit—all over the attic or basement, under the floorboards, and even inside the the walls and the roof. Also, they chew on almost everything they find, so any odd scratching, chattering or grinding noises should automatically alert you to their presence.
- Rats chew on things to get at what's inside, or just to practice, it would seem, so holes chewed through anything on your property are another giveaway. Few other pests will be large enough to chew through things, so if you have come across some things with teeth marks and holes all over them, you know something needs to be done as soon as possible. Even if the damage was not in fact done by rats, having any sharp-toothed animal living in your home alongside you is more than enough to worry any homeowner.
- Because rats have bad eyesight, they tend to stick to a few routes they've chosen, usually along walls to get where they want to go. Rats' bodies are quite dirty and greasy, so them rubbing themselves over the same few areas over and over again will leave dark smudges that stick around for long periods of time.
- Rats leave both foot and tail marks behind. These parks are especially visible on dusty surfaces of course, but you can always sprinkle a bit of talc or flour along the walls and leave it overnight, checking for prints the next day morning.
Call (08) 6311 4056 – Immediate Help
If you suspect your property may be experiencing a rat infestation, do everything you can to be sure as soon as possible so you can take the necessary steps to put this unpleasant situation behind you.

|Content type/httpunit endXxx
|Tue, 03 Sep 2002 19:04:25 GMT
Hey, I'm having trouble in my endXxx method. I'm using the HttpUnit integration to verify some of the output from my XSL translation. I call pResponse.getTables() and I get an exception stating that the document needs to have a content type of "text/html". I put an assert in front of that like this: assertEquals ("Content type", "text/html", pResponse.getContentType()); And indeed the test fails with an actual value of text/plain. When I look at the actual HTML through a browser (view/source), I get the following line: <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> And in the XSL stylesheet, I have the appropriate: <xsl:output method="html" encoding="UTF-8" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"/> So I'm not sure why Cactus/HttpUnit in the endXxx method doesn't think it has HTML. A potential culprit could be the way I'm executing things. In my testXxx method, I'm forwarding the request and response on to the controller servlet using the request dispatcher's forward method. It's just too much of a nightmare to instantiate it in the test case. Don't know if that would be getting in the way of things, but I figure it's worth mentioning. Am I doing something wrong??

A little different topic today.
One of my readers asked if I travel with a tripod on my international trips.
I do.
First of all, I like to shoot long stretched panoramic images and this requires shooting anywhere between 8-30 shots that are then stitched together. Domestic or international plane travel gives me opportunities to shoot outside of my immediate neighborhood (California, Nevada) and I very much welcome every opportunity to do so.
Secondly, I equally love shooting still lives and close-up images and some of these require long exposure times as I'm not always schlepping strobes and lights around. Although I have lighting equipment I can check in, I prefer shooting natural light as much as possible.
I seldom use a tripod shooting people unless I'm going for exposures that exceed 1/8". I prefer hand holding a camera when I shoot portraits and action as the communication with the subject is so much easier.
After some research and looking at all the critical parameters in a tripod and the way I use them, I settled on a carbon fiber tripod from Induro, CT214 and their 5-way PHQ3 head. Pictures of the tripod and below.
I won't be going in detail over the specs of this combination as these can be found online but suffice to say that with the head mounted on the tripod and stored in the bag (comes with the tripod), the total collapsed height is just under 26" and the bagged tripod and head fits nicely in my 26" TravelPro suitcase. Yes, I check my this suit-cased tripod in and have done so on numerous occasions without any issue. TSA or airport security will verify the contents of my suitcase and leave me a little not but that's their prerogative, not mine.
The risk of permanently losing the luggage is not higher than leaving the tripod on board ... I've done the latter, never experienced the former ... ouch ... forget about ever getting a lost tripod in the cabin back, it doesn't happen !
Few words about the PHQ3 head though. When shooting panoramas, this head is indispensable. It allows to level the actual head and either rotate around the tripod axis or a tilted axis and both options are needed for die-hard panoramic shooters. The fold-up handles require some getting used to but it is exactly this feature that allows a very compact storage of the head on top of the tripod so that everything fits in the tripod bag.
I also use a nodal plate with built-in bubble to fully utilize the 5th way, correcting for lens parallax. For my purpose a 7" long plate is sufficient as this covers all my lenses for the Mamiya 645AFD II and the Nikon D3 I'm taking on my trips. I've even used this with the 500mm Mamiya f5.6 lens and camera + lens was perfectly stable on this platform. I do use remote releases when I'm shooting with a tripod, never tough the camera during the exposure for best results. There's a wide choice in nodal plates on the market but I choose one with integrated clamp as this one will fit in the side pocket of the tripod bag together with the spikes. Never leave home without them.
I highly recommend Christof Hejnar's ARCA compatible plates and accessories. Made in USA at reasonable prices and expertly engineered. Christof also custom designs accessories as needed for a fee.
That's it for today, next time I'll show how I pack for airplane travel and what it takes to get this in the overhead bins.
Cheers !

SNF resident charged with murder in fellow resident's death
A North Carolina nursing home resident has been charged with first-degree murder after allegedly fatally beating his roommate.
Authorities were called to Anson Health and Rehabilitation in Wadesboro, NC, in Aug. 14 after receiving a report of a resident, Donald Pressley, beating a fellow resident who was placed in the same room. Both residents were taken to a local hospital — 89-year-old Bill Hooks for treatment of his injuries, and 50-year-old Pressley for evaluation.
Hooks died from his injuries on Aug. 24. A warrant was issued for Pressley on Aug. 25. He was charged this week with first-degree murder and is scheduled to appear in court Sept. 5.
Steve Burroughs, administrator for Anson Health, said in a statement to local media that the facility is "deeply saddened by the death of one of our residents" and "will continue to cooperate with local and state officials during their investigation."
"Following an incident at our facility where a resident sustained injuries, we immediately treated the resident and arranged for transport and further treatment at a local hospital," Burroughs said. " We quickly alerted local authorities and the North Carolina Division of Health and Human Services in accordance with state regulations. Our top priority has always been and remains to be the safety and health of our residents."

Neanderthals may have had complex language
An analysis of a Neanderthal's hyoid bone – a horseshoe shaped structure in the neck – suggests they had the ability to speak.
Until now the strongest support came from a 1989 Neanderthal hyoid fossil, the same shape as those of humans.
But computer modelling of how it works has shown their hyoid bone was also used in a very similar way.
Writing in journal Plos One, the team says their work is "highly suggestive" of complex speech in Neanderthals.
Continue reading the main story
"Start Quote
If Neanderthals also had language then they were truly human too"
End Quote
Prof Stephen Wroe
University of New South Wales
The hyoid bone is crucial for speaking as it supports the root of the tongue. In non-human primates it is not placed in the right position to vocalise like humans.
An international team of researchers analysed a 1989 fossil Neanderthal throat bone using 3D x-ray imaging and mechanical modelling.
This model allowed them to see how the hyoid behaved in relation to the other surrounding bones.
Stephen Wroe from the University of New South Wales, Australia, said: "We would argue that this is a very significant step forward. It shows that the Kebara 2 hyoid doesn't just look like those of modern humans – it was used in a very similar way."
He told BBC News that it not only changed our understanding of Neanderthals, but also of ourselves.
"Many would argue that our capacity for speech and language is among the most fundamental of characteristics that makes us human. If Neanderthals also had language then they were truly human too."
60,000 year-old Neanderthal remains (replica pictured) also included a hyoid bone (not visible)
It was commonly believed that complex language did not evolve until about 100,000 years ago and that modern humans were the only ones capable of complex speech.
But that changed with the discovery of a Neanderthal hyoid bone in 1989. It was found in the Kebara Cave in Israel and is very similar to our own,
Much older hyoid fossils have also recently been discovered, attributed to the human and Neanderthal relative Homo heidelbergensis. They were found in Spain and are over 500,000 years old.
These have yet to be modelled but Prof Wroe said they were likely to be very similar to those of modern humans and Neanderthals, so could bring back the origins of speech still further.
He added that his work would not necessarily be accepted as proof that Neanderthals spoke.
"We were very careful not to suggest that we had proven anything beyond doubt – but I do think it will help to convince a good number of specialists and tip the weight of opinion."
Neanderthals had large faces with massive brow ridges and no chin
Neanderthals were stockier and shorter than humans, with no chin and backwards sloping foreheads. They are not regarded as direct human ancestors but DNA analysis has revealed that between 1% and 4% of the Eurasian human genome seems to come from Neanderthals.
Dan Dediu, from the Max Plank Institute for Psycholinguistics, Netherlands, published a review article earlier this year suggesting that Neanderthals and modern humans shared a similar capacity for language.
He said that the current study brought more weight to the conclusions that Neanderthals had very similar hyoid bones to us, "not only in form but also in what concerns their mechanical properties".
"The authors themselves are understandably cautious in drawing strong conclusions but I think that their work clearly supports the contention that speech and language is an old feature of our lineage going back at least to the last common ancestor that we shared with the Neanderthals." Dr Dediu told BBC News.
But he added that this work was only a first step and that future studies of other living primates were necessary to better understand the range of variation within modern humans.

Your program library will come equipped with some programs to get you started. With CoachHeroic, you can add to your program library by building your own exercises, workouts, and training programs. Here is how...
First, Login to your coach account.
To begin creating training programs, first select 'Library' from the menu on the left. This will open up to the Programs tab by default.
Click Create New Program from the top right corner to create a new training program, or simply click on an existing program to make changes.
Keep in mind that you can create two types of training programs, template programs and calendar programs.
Here are the differences:
Template programs start on day 1, and not on any particular date. When template programs are added to your team's calendar, you can chose exactly which day you'd like them to begin. For example, if you built a 4 week template program and chose to start the program on January 1st, the program would end 4 weeks later.
Calendar programs schedule workouts on specific dates. Calendar programs will often be periodized around the start and end of a sport's season. As a coach, of course you have the option to tweak the schedule and move training sessions about the calendar at anytime, but calendar programs should be built in consideration of your program's unique schedule.
Although changes to a calendar program update all teams using them in real-time and templates do not, we recommend creating template programs for a couple of reasons. First, they're more flexible. Next, you can always add a template program to a calendar program, but can't do this the other way around. Keep it simple, create templates!
First, add the details of the program.
Then, let's get busy creating workouts to build the program. Each program starts as a blank template.
You can make changes at anytime. Your program should be Assigned to a Team's calendar. Keep in mind that all of the athletes on the team will see that team's calendar as it changes in real time too.
If you have questions about program creation, or anything else, please let our team know. Email firstname.lastname@example.com anytime if you need a spot.

A continually growing collection of small realist oil paintings by Michael William
This scene came from a collection of photos I had of my old apt. in Newton, MA - specifically photos of the bathroom. As a matter of fact, out all the photos I've taken of that apt., the bathroom wins most popular. It was fairly tiny with a small window that created a lot of interesting lighting effects, and there was something about the blankness of an unveiled, fairly empty glowing tiled shower wall and that small bit of brilliant sunlight splashed across it that appealed to my love of minimalism and all white paintings. Here are some of the steps leading up to its completion with some notes along the way:
|I start out by painting a quick warm wash of burnt sienna and ultramarine onto the canvas, and hurriedly start blocking in areas of color and establishing my main palette over the wash.
|I consider this to be a slight misstep in the process as I attempt to add some details and darker values, but by the end of the session I feel like I've slightly overworked it already and have lost the underlying glow and active brushwork that excited me about the first session.
|In general, I try not to get stuck in the deadly habit of taking a baby step forward and then retreating back to what was there before out of fear. In this case however, I think it's worth it, so without totally wiping away the last session, I try to lighten up the values a bit and restore what I liked about the first stage. I also add some texture to the curtain folds and some dimension to the shower walls.
|Just a few additions here: heightening the contrast between the shadows and sunlight, adding some gloss to the tile and tub, and handling that delicious sliver of just barely green light to the left of the yellow sunlight. Also the black band of tile at the top for contrast.
|Lastly, I'm making sure that everything is rendered to the degree I want, contrast is high in areas like the sunlight and curtain but low in the tiled walls, and that there are enough elements included to have a nice balance and create points of interest. I've said in the past that sometimes the elements that seem easiest to get right end up being the most difficult, and the shower walls play that role here. The balancing act between making it a believable space without losing the misty, subtle light was a difficult one.

Seymour, Sevier County Real Estate
A Brief Overview of Seymour, Sevier County
From its beginnings as a traditional subsistence-based farming society, Sevier County has grown into a major tourist destination since the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which is dominates the southern portion of the county. One of the very reasons for the park's creation, however, was also one of the county's first major economic engines: the lumber industry. Establishments in what is now the national park felled large amounts of timber in the early 1900s. Though the park effectively killed the then-lagging industry in the late 1930s, it spurred the development of one of the largest tourist resorts in the United States of America, as the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is now the most visited national park in the country. In recent years the tourism bubble has expanded beyond the city of Gatlinburg, which borders the Northwestern segment of the national park, and into the nearby cities of Pigeon Forge and Sevierville. — Source: Wikipedia
Many corner churches are the thriving cultural centers of their community. In addition to their regular devotional services, Seymour's churches host picnic gatherings, gospels, and tent revivals. [See Seymour's churches]
Located along the Tennessee Valley Technology Corridor, Sevier County, TN is also a great place to seat your business/industry. [See Business Information]

I made this advent calendar for Country Living. It's made of matchboxes and some scraps of paper.
- Just hot glue the tops of empty boxes to one another so you get rows.
- The bottom should be 9 and decrease by two until you have a single box.
- Cut wrapping paper to cover each row, secure with hot glue.
- Then hot glue the rows in a tree shape as shown.
- I used small stamps to stamp the numbers on each box.
- On top you can hot glue a star or a cut out like I did on this one.
- Fill the boxes with candy and trinkets and you are ready to go.

I have officially completed the Miracle Morning 30 Day Challenge! Besides a few off days of travel I was able to complete TMM each morning for 30 days and as I've said before (here and here) I loved it. During the week I wake up at 5:20, do the entire MM and finish with a workout. On the weekend I will usually get up a little later but no later than 7am to make sure I have quiet time to complete it. I have been flexible if need be [like when I had to leave for the airport at 2:45am last Friday] and will make sure to complete the entire set of practices when I have quiet time at some point during the day.
I really look forward to this time to myself because it really makes a difference in my day-to-day living. The first week was the only time I felt pretty tired – and I didn't feel tired when I woke up, just after a full day of work. Which meant some early bedtimes until I adjusted. Since that week, it has honestly been easy to get up because that time is so valuable to me.
If you're on the fence about this whole concept, read the book. And then try the challenge! From my experience, it will make a great difference in your life – your mood, your energy level, your productivity. I will continue on with TMM and will be back with another update!

When Julio Rodríguez, a former candidate for the Hialeah City Council, was waiting his turn to speak at a council meeting in 2012, he was left almost speechless by the onslaught from former policeman Glenn Rice.
Rice, an ally of Mayor Carlos Hernández at the time, called him "a piece of garbage" and other insults.
Rice harassed Rodríguez several more times during council meetings, at a time when Rodriguez was pushing the mayor to fulfill his promise to televise the public meetings.
Rodríguez was not the only one that Rice harassed. He staged similar confrontations in 2012 and 2013 with several other political foes of Hernández, such as former Hialeah Mayor Raúl Martínez, former mayoral candidate Juan Santana and the president of the city's firefighters union.
Now, for the first time, Rice is alleging that those attacks were part of a scheme to monitor and harass political enemies orchestrated by Hernández soon after he was elected in November 2011. Rice said that his duties included spying on municipal department heads and digging into the backgrounds of the mayor's opponents.
Rice, who worked as a Hialeah police officer for 25 years, also claims that he did not take on those duties for free. Rice says Hernández persuaded two private companies that were seeking municipal contracts to hire him as a consultant. He showed el Nuevo Herald canceled checks and bank account statements with payments from the two companies.
"My real job was to be there for the mayor, to spy on his perceived political enemies," he said. "My duty was to spy on city employees and political opponents, and report their actions back to the mayor."
My real job was to be there for the mayor, to spy on his political enemies.
Glenn Rice, former Hialeah police officer
Hernández laughed when asked about Rice's statements.
"If I was going to find someone to intimidate people, do you think I would have looked for a clown like Glenn Rice?" he asked, categorically denying the allegations. "Everyone knows who Glenn Rice is. He is a chivato (political snitch), a liar, and now we have heard he's even a criminal."
The mayor also said that Rice was never his ally or even a trusted member of his administration.
He is a political snitch, a liar, and now we know he's even a criminal.
Carlos Hernández, Hialeah mayor
Rice said the mayor's denials were ironic.
"So he trusted this clown with more than $300,000 of his money?" said Rice, referring to Citizens for Efficient Government, a political action committee that had up to $360,000 in its accounts and used the money primarily to finance Hernández's electoral campaigns. "He was the one who called me and instructed me to set up the PAC."
Rice founded the PAC in January 2013 and remains its director.
The former policeman's surprising allegations came after a recent split in Hialeah politics that pits Hernández against council member Isis García-Martínez, who once was a Hernández ally but now is one of the mayor's most fiercest critics.
Rice said he decided to go public with his allegations after receiving word of allegedly threatening comments indicating that "the mayor was going to destroy me." Before then, Rice had claimed that all of his work against the mayor's political opponents was "at his own initiative."
Hernández said that Rice is trying to "play the victim" because he is under investigation for receiving payments, without municipal approval, from companies that bid for a Hialeah contract to privatize the garbage pickup service.
The state attorney's office's Public Corruption Unit and the Miami-Dade Ethics Commission investigated the companies' payments to Rice, according to documents released to el Nuevo Herald two weeks ago, following a public records request.
The investigation's closeout memo indicates that Rice received at least $176,000 over three to four years from three companies that sought the municipal contract, for $40 million over eight years. According to the report, the investigation did not find that any Hialeah official recommended Rice to the companies.
Hernández declined to be interviewed by the investigators, according to documents dated in August.
The documents show that Hernández said he would agree to an interview only with Ethics Commission Executive Director Joe Centorino. Hernández clashed with Centorino last year over an ethics fine that the mayor tried to pay with 28 buckets full of pennies.
Rice, who is listed as a subject in the probe, told el Nuevo Herald that he was contacted some months back by investigators, but he refused to talk to them about the case.
"I am not a rat," he said.
The Operatives
Rice said that the order to besiege people who were unfriendly to the Hernández administration led to the harassment of Julio Rodríguez, the former candidate for city council; Eric Johnson, vice president of the fireman's labor union; former mayoral candidate Juan Santana; former municipal employee José Azze; and former Mayor Raúl Martínez.
All those incidents were reported by el Nuevo Herald in 2012 and 2013. Rice also repeatedly attacked Hialeah blogger Elaine De Valle during the municipal elections campaign in 2011.
In the incident involving Raúl Martínez, Rice arrived at the Maruch restaurant on Sept. 12, 2013, and started to video tape the former mayor meeting with Francisco Alvarado, then a reporter for the Miami New Times. That led to a confrontation during which Martínez accused Rice of being a "pedophile," and "a man without a life and without a woman." Rice called Martinez a "liar."
Rice told el Nuevo Herald in a recent interview that he had received "a call from the mayor's office" telling him that Martínez was in the restaurant meeting with Johnson. The labor leader was in the restaurant, but at a different table. At the time, Hernández denied ordering Rice to harass his opponents and claimed the confrontation was "a problem between the two of them exclusively."
Hernández and his chief of staff, Arnie Alonso, denied during an Oct. 11 interview that the mayor's office alerted Rice about the Martínez meeting.
Rice said that the mayor also directed him to spy on council member Vivian Casals-Muñoz, now an ally of Hernández, and that he staked out one of her campaign offices on West 68th Street. "The mayor wanted to know who went in and out of Vivian's office," said Rice, adding that Hernández and Casals-Muñoz were not on the best of terms at the time. Hernández denied the allegation.
The payments
Documents obtained by el Nuevo Herald confirm that Rice received payments from Waste Pro and Waste Management, two companies that submitted losing bids for a contract to privatize the city's garbage pickup service.
He also received payments from a third company, International Management Consultants Inc. (IMC), which according to the state attorney's office investigation, was run by Hermán Echevarría, a former Hialeah council member. Authorities say that Echevarría lobbied for Progressive Waste Solutions (PWS), the company that won the contract in 2015. The investigation's report also shows that PWS officials denied knowing IMC had hired Rice.
Statements from one of Rice's bank accounts also show monthly deposits of $2,000 from Waste Pro. Rice said the company paid him a total of $72,000 from 2013 to 2015.
Rice also showed el Nuevo Herald copies of IMC checks issued to him, in amounts of $2,000, $6,000 and $4,000, for January, February and April of this year. The investigation's report showed IMC paid Rice at least $76,000 starting in April 2012.
"I started to receive the monthly payments from these two companies (Waste Pro and IMC) shortly after the mayor won the elections in 2011," said Rice. "I never filled out a job application with those companies. The mayor handled everything."
IMC and Waste Pro did not respond to requests for comment.
A source in Waste Management who agreed to comment in exchange for anonymity said that the company hired Rice in early 2014. The financial investigation showed Rice received at least $30,000 from Waste Management.
"We saw that (Rice) was part of the mayor's inner circle, and we wanted to have someone who could give us information on the steps being taken on the bidding process," the source said. "But the contract we signed made it very clear: no lobbying."

Tigers are some of the most beautiful, majestic animals on earth. It is the largest member of the felid (cat) family but despite what we know about animals, there is still a great deal of what we do not know mixed up with common misconceptions or confusion with other large cats. There were once nine subspecies of tigers namely: Malayan, Siberian, Indochinese, Bengal, South Chinese, Sumatran, Caspian, Javan and Bali. Of these, the last three are extinct, one is extinct in the wild, and the rest are endangered species. You may think you know a lot about tigers but these 10 unusual tiger facts might come as a surprise to you.

1. Water
Although most cats do not like water, tigers are good swimmers. They enjoy playing, bathing, and swimming in the water. Tigers are also skilled at hunting in the water.
2. Markings
Tigers are thought of in some cultures as a noble animal. It is believed that the markings on their forehead look a lot like the Chinese symbol for king. Just like the domestic house cat, if a tiger's fur were shaved off, its skin would show the same markings as its fur. Like a human fingerprint, each stripe on a tiger is unique to a specific animal. Tiger fur also comes in numerous colors including gold, white, black, and also blue. The Maltese tiger is said to be blue, however, there is no confirmation that these tigers actually exist.
3. Tongue
Tigers do not lap up water when drinking. They flip drops of water into the air and catch them. A tiger's saliva can be used to clean their wounds due to its disinfecting properties.
4. Fertility
Tigers mate often because females are only fertile for 4 to 5 days out of the entire year. The tigress's gestational period takes about 3 months, and they typically give birth to 2 to 3 cubs.
5. Hunting
Tigers prefer to perform sneak attacks on their prey. If you are ever being attacked by a tiger, look them in the eyes. If the tiger knows you are aware of it, its ambush is foiled and chances are it will retreat. While walking through the forests of India, people would wear masks on the back of their heads to thwart a tiger ambush. Tigers are able to adapt their killing techniques, but they usually kill their prey through strangulation. Tigers use their powerful jaws to bite through skin and even bone. Unlike other cat species, male tigers allow females and cubs to eat first.

6. Medicinal uses
Poaching tigers in China has been illegal for many years and is punishable by death. In ancient Chinese medical practices, tiger parts were used medicinally. Once thought to be used as aphrodisiacs, their real use was to treat such ailments as digestive issues and arthritis. However, today this misconception is being practiced again, and tiger parts are once again being used as aphrodisiacs.
7. Memory and brain
Aside from the polar bear, a tiger has the largest brain of all carnivores and is similar in size to the Chimpanzee's. Overall, cats have a better memory than all other animals and this includes humans. Their memory is numerous times better than other primates and significantly better than dogs. Surprisingly, tiger memories are made up of stronger brain synapses than a human brain, and their short-term memory endures 30 times longer than ours does. Due to these stronger brain synapses, they do not forget things and remember things more easily than we do.
8. Hybrids
Tigers in captivity can be mated with other animals like lions, jaguars and leopards. The hybrid mix between tigers and lions are known as tiglons and ligers. Tiglons are smaller than ligers, which are the biggest cats in the world. A tiger and jaguar mix is known as a jagger or a tiguar. So far, only one of these male tiguar hybrids has survived. All tiger jaguar mixes have been stillborn.
9. Species
There are only six subspecies of tiger left in the world today, which include the South China, the Bengal, the Malayan, the Siberian, Indochinese, and the Sumatran tiger. The Javan, Caspian, and Bali tigers are all extinct today. All of them became extinct due to loss of habitant or hunting. All except the Bali tiger that was strictly hunted to extinction because they were thought to be evil. Although six subspecies of tiger still exist, there numbers are few.
10. Eyes
While most cats are nocturnal, tigers are not. They do the majority of their hunting early in the morning or late in the evening. Due to this, tigers have different eyes than other cats with round not slitted pupils.
Even though poaching is illegal, sadly it is still in practice today. The Tiger's numbers continue to dwindle, and these species remains in danger of extinction. These are the 10 unusual but basic tiger facts every one should know

His professional manner, friendly service, and expert treatment has had me coming back to him for adjustments for many years. I fully recommend him not only for back/spine related issues, but any other physical problems that you have. He is great at finding the root of the problem and providing proactive remedies.Caleb W.
I can't believe how good I feel after just a few treatments. My back rib section was so tight I couldn't move & sleep was a challenge.
The whole rib area hurt so bad, front & back, but you diagnosed it quickly, and after the first treatment I felt so much better. With the follow up visits I swear I feel 10 years younger & have full motion. Back to swinging the golf club efficiently!
Thanks for the gently but very efficient care.
