The object of these guidelines is to publish the system by which patients can obtain accommodation at Calpe House, ensuring that all patients are assured that they are being treated equally and in a fair and open manner in accordance with these rules.
1. If you wish to be considered for accommodation at Calpe House, you should notify the Sponsored Patients Department of the Gibraltar Health Authority. They will in turn liaise with the Trust.
2. Requests for accommodation will only be attended to if they are made via the Sponsored Patients Department if you are in Gibraltar, but see paragraphs 4 and 5 below.
3. The system is operated in practice on a first come first served basis, taken from the date and time of the request form received at the Trust's office from the Sponsored Patients Department.
4. If accommodation will be unavailable at Calpe House for the requested date, this will be notified to you several days before your date of departure to the UK, up to when every effort will be made to accommodate you. However, if unsuccessful, your application will then be cancelled and your name taken off the list.
5. Following on from the above, if you wish to apply for accommodation whilst in London you may do so and your name will again be placed on the waiting list.
6. The list operated from Gibraltar will include the London applicants. Those who applied in Gibraltar have priority over those who applied whilst in London for the reasons that those in London already have accommodation, but consideration will be given to the original application date and length of stay. In addition, the time the patient and other patients are on the waiting list in Gibraltar will be taken into consideration.
7. Although the placing on the waiting list depends on the time of the notification by the Sponsored Patients Department, urgent cases, as deemed necessary by the Consultant, will be given priority, but are still subject to the availability of accommodation.
8. If you wish to be considered for accommodation whilst in London, please contact Housekeeper on tel +44 (0)20 7792 4854 from Monday to Friday between 9.30am to 1.30pm, leaving your telephone number, the address at which you are staying and any other relevant details, so that we may contact you as soon as accommodation becomes available.
9. Calpe House accommodation is not transferable. Accordingly, should you meet other patients from Gibraltar in hospital, who do not reside in Calpe House, please do not offer to share your accommodation at Calpe House or leave your Calpe House flat to them on your return to Gibraltar.
10. You may notice empty flats while in Calpe House. These flats will already have been allocated to patients on the waiting list, who are generally in transit from Gibraltar.
11. If once in London you are granted accommodation at Calpe House, the Sponsored Patients Department will be notified of this and subsequently your maintenance allowance will be re-assessed under the Sponsored Patients Department criteria.
12. There are 5 rooms that can accommodate 3 persons per room. That means that patients, their official escorts and one extra person (a Third Person) may share one of these rooms. It must be noted that the Third Person will be charged a fee, even during the period that the patient is admitted to hospital. The patient's bed must be kept available for the patient at all times, even when the patient is in hospital.
13.Children may only be granted accommodation in Calpe House if they themselves are the patients. Children are not allowed to stay either as escorts or as Third Persons. Visitors are reminded that most of the patients in the building are ill or distraught at a patient's illness and that their well-being is paramount. Visiting children must be kept under control by their parents or guardians. All patients must be accompanied by an escort capable of looking after all the patient's needs.
14. All patients will be asked for particulars of the identification documents and medical appointments. The housekeeper must be informed after every appointment if a further appointment has been made so as to establish if the patient is to remain in London or is free to return to Gibraltar. The sooner our Gibraltar office knows your itinerary the better it is able to plan for the future use of your bedroom.
15. Once you have been discharged by your consultant or from hospital, you should contact the airline or the Sponsored Patients Department for them to arrange your flight back to Gibraltar. However, should you decide to remain in the UK for reasons other than medical, you should seek alternative accommodation forthwith thereby vacating Calpe House not later than 2 days after the date of your last appointment or discharge from hospital.

This novel is surely going to be interesting for intermediate and senior school students.
The story is about a girl who lives in two worlds, the world of average people and the world of native inhabitants of the American continent, Indians. Amanda (the name of the main protagonist) cannot escape from her childish habits; she's got a whole set of dolls, and she still plays them. In the world of average people she is a normal eighteen-year-old girl who is up to attend college, but in the world of Indians she is the brave warrior Neiko Kidd by name. These two worlds are very close to each other, they snarl together, or maybe they exist one in the other. But one day a third world wedges into this huddle, a world which Neiko imagined for playing with her toys. The characters of her games come to life and steal her into this imaginary world. This novel is surely going to be interesting for intermediate and senior school students who like stories about super heroes and Harry Potter. The style is easy and nice to read and understand. I would gladly recommend this piece to the above mentioned age group... Book received from author. --Vlad K. Once, UK author of One of Us, Chance Confession, and The Sigma Passion
A spine-chilling adventure-packed tale that will have you turning page after page. Once you open this book, there is no turning back. --Katie Holzman, author of Seven Ways to Kill Yourself with Shampoo
This book took me back to my childhood. I couldn't wait to see what would happen next in the story. A wonderful, action packed story that tweens and younger teens would enjoy. --Tom Clementson, Kindle Book Review Reviewer
Neiko's Five Land Adventure: Neiko Adventure Saga Book One by A.K.Taylor has everything that young fantasy reader would want in a fantasy novel. The author dishes out everything from bird-like people to velociraptors and that is not even twentieth of what readers can look forward to finding along with Neiko Kidd in the Five Lands. I cannot help but chuckle when I think back to all of the names that Neiko has called Ramses the Dark Pharaoh, the main antagonist. Like the one and only Dr.Frankenstein, the author is nothing short of ingeniously inventive when it comes to her own fictional monstrosities. The author's open-and-shut originality is certainly what will lure readers to invest in her series. I call this novel fantasy at its boldest.
Once Neiko and Quickstrike made it into the Five Lands, this book just got better and better... --Benjamin Ookami from Reader's Favorite
"Plenty of action and inspired imagination."
~Wulfstan Top 100 Reviewer
"From the first word, Taylor delivers a fresh, vibrant tale of two different worlds."
~Steven Knight Book review and author of "Born of Blood"
"An imaginative journey that is that is much of an adventure for the reader as it is for Neiko."
~CC Cole Book Reviewer and author of the Gastar Series
"A great middle school or read to me book with tons of adventure and characters."
~Paper Mustang Book Reviewer
~Indie Reader Reviewer
"Neiko's Five Land Adventure is a gripping young adult fantasy tale. You get an exceptional feel for the protagonist, Neiko, as you travel through the rich worlds between reality and imaginary (well not really imaginary as Neiko soon finds out!) alongside her and her cohorts (I particularly liked Quickstrike)"
~Michael Dadich, Award Winning Author of the Silver Sphere
From the Author
I hope readers will enjoy the debut novel that I had written at age 16. This story and the upcoming saga is based on my own adventures that I had in the woods and the backyard as a youth. After writing Neiko's Five Land Adventure the imaginary world only grew. I wrote the book as a personal challenge and as an outlet from high school.

Corporate packages available for Bicentenary participationSunday, 18 June 1815 is one of the few dates that very many people remember from school history lessons. It is especially relevant in the UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Russia and Austria, as well as most other parts of Europe. It also impacted on the world at large. The Battle of Waterloo was fought on that day and so its Bicentenary is now well and truly on the horizon.
The French army under Napoleon battled against the combined armies of Britain, Prussia, Russia and Austria and it was fought at Waterloo, South West of Brussels.
The outcome of that battle has influenced the politics and structure of Europe ever since and its Bicentenary is already arousing the attention it merits.
Corporate organisers can link into this historic event, providing their groups with an unrivalled experience, excitement and a great sense of participation in something on which the attention of the world will be focussing. The Battle of Waterloo is to be reconstructed and played out on a massive scale next June on the very soil where the armies did the fighting.
Waterloo 2015, a non-profit organisation, is holding a 3-day event. June 18 2015 will see the setting-up of the bivouac encampments with an official commemoration and an evening Son et Lumiere show. On Friday June 19 there will be a re-enactment of a phase of the battle; with a final phase re-enacted on Saturday June 20.
The whole occasion will be spectacular, with over 5,000 people taking part in authentic dress and with 300 horses. It is estimated that there will be an audience of at least 50,000.
The Waterloo 2015 enterprise is offering participation at three levels: Tickets for seated or standing viewing; Group or Individual VIP Packages; Visits of the bivouacs and museums.
For full details of what will be happening and what is on offer, visit www.waterloo2015.org.

Anything can change in the blink of an eye for businesses, so being prepared with a disaster recovery and incident response plan is key no matter the size or structure of the organization. Anton Chuvakin, a research director at Gartner's IT1 Security and Risk Management group, wrote on the company's website that plans can be useless if something unexpected pops up, but planning for anything that may come along can be golden for organizations looking to avert risks and keep their business up and running.
"Incident response planning is something even ostriches with their heads in the sand must do: if you make a concerted effort to avoid security monitoring (in order to avoid detecting an incident and thus incurring extra work), an incident will likely come your way anyway," he said. "After all, doesn't [a recent breach report by Verizon] say that most incidents are detected by third parties? Therefore, you need to plan on how you will respond to an incident that happened a year ago."
Chuvakin said incident response planning is an ongoing process that must be kept up and tested. It is no longer appropriate to simply adopt online data backup and hope for the best, companies must be sure they are all-in on the security and planning front to keep their business safe in a worse-case-scenario situation.
The Wall Street Journal said preparing for the worst can help minimize the risk in case of any type of disaster, whether it be physical or digital. Reviewing what insurance policies are in place, figuring out what will be done in case the worst happens and using data backup for all important information are musts for organizations that want to stay afloat after a breach or disaster occurs.
"Make backup copies of all critical records, such as accounting and employee data, customer lists, production formulas and inventory," the news source said. "Keep that information in a separate location at least fifty miles away, or subscribe to a (sic) online data backup service provider."

By May S. Ruiz
When the class of 2019 enters the gates of First Avenue Middle School in Arcadia next week, the students will be met by a familiar face – Semeen Issa. However, Dr. Issa, who has been assistant principal at the school for the past six years, will be greeting them as their new principal.
That Dr. Issa thoroughly enjoys being at First Avenue is evident given this will be her 17th year there. Recalls Dr. Issa, "I used to work in the Los Angeles Unified School District but I decided to make a change because I wanted to spend more time with my young children. Being an Arcadia resident, I was spending much of the day commuting to work, so I got a job here as a teacher. I taught sixth grade English and history; sixth, seventh, and eighth grade intermediate ELD (English Language Development). I did this for 10 years until six years ago when I was named assistant principal."
"Moving up the ranks to the top position doesn't usually happen," Dr. Issa reveals. "There was only one other principal who started in the Arcadia Unified School District (AUSD) as a teacher."
Hiring a principal from the outside to bring fresh ideas to the table may have its pluses but as Dr. Issa is quick to point out, "Familiarity with the school culture and how it runs is vitally important. Having a headmaster who is aware of what the faculty wants to see in their principal is a big advantage. I know both sides of the coin, having worked as a teacher and administrator. Additionally, my daughter went to middle school here, so I was also a past parent. Having worn several hats at First Avenue gives me a multi-dimensional knowledge and perspective."
Her vast experience at this school has enabled Dr. Issa to hit the ground running. During her first month on the job, which officially began this past July, she hired an assistant principal to take on the post she vacated and four teachers to replace those who retired and moved elsewhere.
Dr. Issa will ensure a seamless transition from her predecessor's term to hers as she steers the course for First Avenue's approximately 800 students. She, together with her faculty and staff, are charged with making sure that every child succeeds. She says, "The federal government mandates that we educate everyone who walks in our doors. But we at AUSD take it a step further by finding out exactly what they need and personalizing their education while they're here."
"This is a constant discussion we have here because unlike elementary schools which have six years to get students ready for us, we have only three before we send them off to high school," continues Dr. Issa. "And the time they're with us are critical years because they go through major developmental changes – they enter our gates as little kids and leave as teenagers. We not only prepare them academically, we also make sure they have transformative experiences and become leaders."
One leadership training program at First Avenue is called WEB (Where Everyone Belongs) program. Dr. Issa explains, "Eighth grade students guide sixth graders as they transition from elementary to middle school. They are chosen from 120 seventh graders who apply in May to become mentors during their last year. Based on their applications, interviews, and teacher recommendations, 40 of them are selected and are charged to look after a group of 10 to 12 sixth graders."
"A few days before the end of the school year, the newly-minted leaders, together with eighth grade mentors who are finishing out their year, meet with incoming students. They welcome fifth graders from Baldwin Stocker and Holly Avenue Elementary and tour them around the campus to give them a chance to get familiar with the school they will be attending in the fall. This eliminates much anxiety and builds a connection with First Avenue. WEB leaders get their contact information and they keep in touch during the summer months. On Aug. 16, two days before school starts, incoming students come in for their orientation with their WEB mentors," continues Dr. Issa.
First Avenue offers all the core subjects and a vast array of extra-curriculars. The AUSD has re-installed athletics into their daily schedule to get them ready for high school sports and CIF competitions.
Art electives are a major component of middle school life. As Dr. Issa expounds, "When AUSD transitioned from the junior high to the middle school format back in the 1990s, the faculty and staff had been vocal about the need to focus on the whole child. That meant keeping all extra-curriculars – marching and rock band, chorus, drum line, orchestra; drama (which produces two plays a year); broadcast journalism (that airs live news daily); industrial tech (where kids learn to build things from wood), advanced industrial tech (that teaches guitar-making); advanced art, graphic arts, cartooning; home economics (where kids learn to cook). Because of the new science standard and its focus on engineering, we now offer a class called creative engineering."
The many opportunities available for First Avenue middle school-ers keep students with their hands full. A rotating seven-period schedule means they have to come in during zero period in the morning for art class. And if all that weren't enough, teachers continue to collaborate with fellow educators in the different departments to come up with ever more enrichment activities.
During her first year as principal, Dr. Issa plans to coordinate with the Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) to expand something that functions well. She says, "I don't want to fix what isn't broken for the sake of making changes. Instead, I will work closely with the PTSA to develop more student-centered events. I want our middle school-ers to adjust comfortably to this new phase and to become responsible young people."
Dr. Issa relates, "Often parents hover over their kids and worry, and rightly so. But during middle school, it's helpful for adults to give children the space to mature. And, likewise, it's a time for parents to adapt to their kids' growing independence. This is a very exciting time for parents as well as for children. I want to provide a happy, positive, and memorable experience for everyone while they're here."
With Dr. Issa at the helm, First Avenue middle school-ers are sure to emerge confidently prepared for high school and beyond.

Okay I'm going to go ahead and use some standard acronyms here. My wife (DW) and three-year-old son (DS) had a video chat with her mom (my mother-in-law - MIL) today while I was at work. At some point MIL asks DS what he did yesterday. Apparently even though the word "church" was never mentioned in the conversation beforehand, DS said that we went to church and he had fun there. He's so silly. DW neither confirmed nor denied this to MIL. Now MIL thinks we went to church yesterday, and nothing could be further from the truth. We haven't gone to church since we moved here and won't be going to church.
Later this evening we got a family spam email from my dad. This is extremely rare. In fact, he used an email address I haven't seen before so it must be new. He basically talked about some history books he was reading about war and tragedy, and he expressed his gratitude and humility for not having to go through such horror. He wonders why he has been so blessed. He believes that Jesus will comfort those who have suffered and help them accept the truth in the end. He exhorts us to live the gospel and ends his epistle. His written communications are always rare, but usually dramatic like that.
So now all we need to do is send off a letter saying "Hey guys we don't believe in any of this crap anymore! But we love you!" to top off the evening, eh?
I don't know how people can just happily go without telling their families of their disaffection. People will sometimes ask me, "Why do they need to know? Just don't tell them!" Some of these people are ex-mos and I just don't understand how they can pull that off. Do their families never ask them about church? Does the subject never come up? Do they censor themselves whenever they talk to family? Do they never get invited to weddings, temple trips, or to say a prayer, bear a testimony, or give a blessing? How can they cut themselves off from their families so cleanly like that? We live far away from our families yet there is no way we can go without them knowing without a ridiculous amount of hiding involved. I want to live authentically. I guess it's time to start drafting that announcement email.

GSK develops community pharmacy team
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. — GlaxoSmithKline said it is establishing a dedicated team to support community pharmacists and other healthcare professionals.
Effective March 28, GSK said its community pharmacy liaisons will provide information and tools to help community pharmacists communicate with their patients about chronic diseases and the appropriate use of medicines and vaccines.
In developing the new team, the drug maker said it consulted with community pharmacists to better understand their needs and to ensure that the new team will provide a helpful service.
"Our research shows that community pharmacists want to spend more time engaging with their patients, and many patients would welcome more counseling about their medication," said David Moules, GSK VP channel development and sales. "The GSK community pharmacy team will provide community pharmacists with education and tools to support those important patient conversations."
GSK, Tolerx's late-stage trial for otelixizumab doesn't meet endpoints
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — A late-stage trial of a biologic treatment for Type 1 diabetes appears to have failed, according to results announced Friday.
GlaxoSmithKline and Tolerx said results of the 272-patient, phase-3 "DEFEND-1" study of otelixizumab indicated it did not preserve the function of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, as measured by levels of the protein C-peptide, which is used to measure the amount of insulin the body is producing. Patients received a single, eight-day intravenous course of the drug no more than 90 days after diagnosis. Pending review of the results of DEFEND-1, patient recruitment for a second study, "DEFEND-2," has been suspended, the companies said.
"While we are disappointed in the DEFEND-1 results of otelixizumab, we remain committed to the development and commercialization of the candidates in our pipeline, each of which has a distinct mechanism and target for correcting abnormal immune responses," Tolerx president and CEO Douglas Ringler said.
Type 1 diabetes, formerly called juvenile-onset diabetes, is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system destroys the pancreatic cells that produce insulin.
Dendreon's manufacturing expansion for Provenge OKed
SEATTLE — The Food and Drug Administration has approved biotech company Dendreon's expansion of manufacturing capacity for an immunotherapy treatment for prostate cancer, Dendreon said Thursday.
The company said it would be able to increase the ability of Provenge (sipuleucel-T) manufactured at its plant in New Jersey by increasing the number of workstations to produce it from 12 to 48.
The treatment is designed to induce an immune response against prostatic acid phosphatase, an antigen present in most prostate cancers.
The company said it expects to have around 225 infusion centers prepared to treat their first patient by the end of the second quarter, and 500 by the end of the year.

Deliveryman Hospitalized After Rottweiler Attack
Brent Adams
Comments (0)
A 44-year-old man from Appleton, Wisconsin required hospitalization for the personal injuries he suffered when a dog bit him on October 30 as he was delivering food to a home that night.
According to Grand Chute, Wisconsin police, the attack was unprovoked and occurred at approximately 7:30 p.m. As the dog's owner was paying for the food, the Rottweiler got past him and bit the deliveryman in the groin. He received ambulance transport to Appleton Medical Center.
Police cited the dog's owner for having an unlicensed dog and issued him a warning for the bite. Police say there have been no prior complaints about the dog, which has been quarantined.

For a number of years I have been thinking of getting a hot-air-balloon tattoo...I was especially thinking about this the other day. I think that is what prompted my balloon extravaganza.
Tuesday, May 18, 2010
balloons? balloons.
The other day I spent a ridiculous amount of time looking at pictures of balloons. Why not? Who doesn't like balloons, right? what, do you have a problem with balloons? Well, look at all the nice old photographs and illustrations I found!

In the most simple of terms, brewing is the mixing of a starch source with water and then adding yeast to induce fermentation. Sounds simple, but the process can get a little complicated.
Step 1: Malting the Grain
Today, most beers use malted barley as the starch source for the brewing process. Malted barley is produced by soaking the barley grain in water to partially germinate the seed, and then drying it with the help of a kiln. After the gain is malted, it will be milled to expose specific parts of the grain for mashing, the next step.
Step 2: Mashing
In the mashing process, the milled grain is mixed in hot water to create a cereal mash. Complex carbohydrates are turned into simple sugars by enzymes found naturally in the milled grain. After this process is complete, the resulting sugary liquid is called the "wort." The temperature of the wort may be raised to deactivate the enzymes at this stage. The wort is filtered from the grain and sent to boil. The type if malt used in the mashing process determines the color, flavor and aroma of the final product.
Step 3: Boiling
The wort then is boiled in a large kettle with the addition of hops. This phase of the brewing process is where decisions concerning flavor, aroma and color of the beer are made. The timing of the addition of hops into the wort effect the outcome of the final product. Hops that contribute bitterness need at least 60 minutes of boil time, where as, hops used for flavor and aroma are added in the last 15 minutes. After this mixture is boiled, the larger particles are separated out, the resulting liquid is cooled, and the yeast is added.
Step 4: Fermentation
During fermentation, yeast is added to the mixture to produce alcohol. There are three main types of fermentation: warm, cool and spontaneous. Warm, top, fermentation occurs at 59 to 68°F. These beers are typically ready to drink after a short maturation period but can be held and conditioned for many months. Cool, bottom, fermentation happens at around 50°F. The beer produced is kept at near freezing temperatures for at least a month to reduce the less desirable flavors produced during fermentation. During spontaneous fermentation, the wort mixture is allowed to pick up wild yeast and bacteria from the surrounding open air and ferment on its own.
In this day of modern technology, yeasts and fermentation styles (top-warm and bottom-cool) have lost a bit of there meaning. Most brewers use large fermentation tanks that are conical at the bottom to allow for easy disposal of particles formed during fermentation before conditioning.
Step 5: Conditioning
Conditioning can take various forms. Lagering, bottle conditioning, and secondary fermentation are common types of conditioning. Lagering is when the beer is kept at near freezing temperatures for more than 30 days to clarify the beer and reduce distasteful flavors produced in fermentation. Bottle conditioning is when the beer is allowed to ferment after being bottled, giving the beer natural carbonation. Secondary fermentation occurs when, after initial fermentation, the dead yeast and other potentially harmful debris are removed, and the beer is allowed to continue fermenting. It is also when additional flavoring agents such as fruit or herbs are introduced to the beer.
This conditioning process can take anywhere from a few weeks to several years depending on the goals of the brewer.
Step 6: Filtering and Packaging
Before the beer is packaged, it is filtered to remove any remaining sediments. Some styles of beer don't go through the filtering process, especially wheat beers. The beer is then force carbonated and bottled or canned for our enjoyment.

They are 2012 Standardbred boys. They are unhandled and nervous, but they are settling in well so far and should come around in no time. They all need a good hoof trim and a good brushing, but we are going to let them settle in first before we overwhelm them. They all seem sweet, they just need some handling and love. Two of them have papers, which we are waiting on.
The Three Musketeers
Meet today's new rescues, whom we have officially dubbed "The Three Musketeers".
They are 2012 Standardbred boys. They are unhandled and nervous, but they are settling in well so far and should come around in no time. They all need a good hoof trim and a good brushing, but we are going to let them settle in first before we overwhelm them. They all seem sweet, they just need some handling and love. Two of them have papers, which we are waiting on.
It's Amazing What 10 Days Can Do
Zoey is officially 10-days into her rehab here and is already looking loads better!
The pictures didn't do justice to how bad a condition she was in upon arrival, but after a week and a half of rehab we can already see a the change in her shoulder, hip and top line as well as in her attitude. Late last week she was bucking and playing in her paddock! It is amazing what some good food and love can accomplish.
We are so excited by her progress so far and we will continue to keep you posted!
Once she puts on a bit more weight, we will be able to get her teeth done and then hopefully find her a new, loving home soon.
Got Grass?
Julie's two old boys and residents of J&M Acres Horse Rescue are officially looking for leasers as companions or "lawn mowers".
The first is Digger (pictured on the left). He is a 32 year old bay Arabian gelding who was J&M Acres second ever rescues and who has been here with us since 1995. He is not rideable, but is a very fun companion who loves attention and is good with kids. He can be a great best friend for another horse and excels at grass eating.
Meet Zoey (VIDEO)
Finally met Zoey myself today when I went down to the rescue this afternoon.
She is an absolutely darling mare! Very in-your-pocket and gentle; constantly looking for attention. It seems that she has already settled in great here. She is bright-eyed She is bright-eyed and looking hopeful for her future.
I took the following little video of her too for you guys :)
Community Shout-Out
We just wanted to take a minute to shout out to all of our adopters, donors and followers for your amazing support.
Yesterday, we received a very generous $700 donation in the mail from the Vancouver Mounted Police. In addition, we have had several people send in donations for Zoey's rehab.
We feel sincerely blessed to have such an amazing community around us that fully supports the work we are doing here. You guys should be proud. This rescue is as much ours as it is yours because without all of you, we wouldn't be able to do what we do.
Hedley the Rock Star
Hedley has been with us here at the rescue for almost a month now and has been doing wonderfully!
He officially went out for his sixth ride on the trails this afternoon and was a rock star. Usually he is quite nervous about the pre-ride process from the hauling to the tacking up, but today he was great. He stood quietly while he was groomed and didn't flinch for tacking.
After only a month he hardly shows any signs of his previous home - even his toes have grown out to a more comfortable length since being here. At this point, you wouldn't know that he had been ridden in a tie down and previously nervous about carrying a rider.
We are fairly surprised this handsome boy hasn't had more interest, but we aren't going to complain about him being here at the rescue. He is an absolute joy to have around and a wonderful boy to ride.
Meet Our Latest Rescue, Zoey
Zoey is a very skinny owner surrender that we picked up this afternoon. The previous owner got her given to her. She is an 8 year old Thoroughbred mare. She is registered as "Count on Annie" and born May 3, 2006. She is approx 15.3-16hh.
She is a very sweet girl, but it is clear that she has had quite a rough life recently and needs a lot of TLC. We are happy to see that there is still life in her eyes and we hope that with some proper rehab, we will be able to bring out her youthful soul.
With any luck in a week or two she will be a very different mare. We have picked her up some high-fat feed and she is now all settled into her paddock with dinner.

Starcraft 2: Why to stick with one race
Written by Taerix
Playing with all three races can be lots of fun and very useful way to learn the units, tech trees, and abilities of each race. But if you really want to climb up the Battle.net ladder and start winning more games, you should focus on just 1 race.
Here's why...
To be an effective Starcraft 2 player, you're going to need a strategy for each matchup you play in. No one strategy will be effective against all 3 races. That means if you play Terran you should have a strategy in mind for Terran vs Zerg, Terran vs Protoss, and Terran vs Terran.
So if you want to try and get better at all 3 races at the same time you'll need to memorize 9 different strategies instead of just 3. I don't know about you, but I just don't have time or the memory to do that.
Starting today, pick one race that you enjoy playing and focus completely on learning the best strategies for that race in each matchup.
But don't just pick the race that you've heard is "the best." You should play the race that you like playing the best. No matter what the forums say, no one race is better than the others. Blizzard does a great job balancing the game so don't get caught up in all the "over-powered" talk.
The point of playing Starcraft 2 in the first place is to have fun, so don't settle playing just to win, but to have fun. You'll enjoy it a lot more and end up getting better faster because of it.
Once you decide which race you're going to focus on playing, grab a strategy guide to learn proven strategies instead of all the guesses that you'll find on the forums. Which strategy guides do we recommend? We recommend strategy guides which were written by real players, like Joana's or Shokz. Either of these guides are top notch and both are ever evolving. You can get more info on Shokz Starcraft II guide or check out Joana's Starcraft 2 guide.

Hi everyone!
This is my first time making a topic here. Obviously i was lurking around for some time, but now i have an important question which i hadn't found a clear answer yet. I hope someone can help me out.
So i read about the PSOne official LCD screen. I only found NTSC LCD screens so i plan to buy one of those, but i heard that the region of the console and the LCD screen must match.
Is that correct?
What if i have PAL chipped console runnin an NTSC game on the NTSC LCD screen? Will it work? Or my theory is wrong?
Thanks to all who answers my question.

UMass center Matt Sparks has been named to the Rimington Trophy Spring Watch List.
Dan Malone has an article on Sparks.
Sparks will be a senior this fall and should anchor a offensive line that should return all five starters (something we haven't seen for a while).
The starting O-line for November 14th, 2014 was:
LT Tyrell Smith 6-5 315 (23 career starts)
LG Fabian Hoeller 6-3 295 (15 career starts)
C Matt Sparks 6-4 280 (21 career starts)
RG Michael Boland 6-7 315 (12 career starts)
RT Elijah Wilkinson 6-4 315 (12 career starts)
The Minutemen offensive line gave up 28 sacks in 2014, which tied for 9th in the MAC. That probably was not bad given UMass led the league with 492 attempts. The line did less well in run blocking. The Minutemen were 11th in rush offense yards per game and 11th in yards per rush (3.4). Barring any injuries, the line should return intact and we would hope be a strength in 2015.
Two other MAC centers were named to the Rimington Trophy watch list: Eastern Michigan and Central Michigan.

On their 16th release of their 2.0 "Lab Off Session," The Jazz Jousters collective plays with American jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal's "Lovely & Sweet" off his 'live-album' Alhambra released via Argo Records in 1961 that featured performances recorded at Jamal's own club. Lovely and Sweet features production from some of brightest and exclusive music minds of today; Es-K, DJ Mentos, Gadget, Bones The Beat Head, RickMal, B3NBi, Skinnista, Blue Buttonz, Erik Jackson, Mr. Moods, Jaze Baqti, The Specialists, and FloFilz.
On Stanley Crouch's Considering Genius, Ahmad Jamal is considered the second most important jazz figure, after Charlie Parker, post-WWII and in the book – Miles Davis and American Culture – author Gerard Lyn Early notes that Jamal "has been one of the most commercially successful small-group leaders in jazz for five decades." These two statements sum up Ahmad Jamal's musical legacy as one to be recognized as ambitiously tethered to tradition but relentlessly innovative through the movement of music and character.
Ahmad Jamal's career began at the age of seven when his uncle Lawrence stopped him as he was walking past his parents' piano in the living room. He challenged the young Jamal to emulate the work his uncle was doing on the piano, note for note. Jamal later said "the rest is history." By 1950, Jamal had toured with the George Henson Orchestra and had traveled to Chicago with The Four Strings, both of which he later departed from to venture as a band leader. In 1955, he released his first album Ahmad Jamal Plays via Parrot Records and in the span of 57 years, he has since released over 60 albums as well as 11 collaboration albums. Most recently, he released Blue Moon via Jazz Village in 2012.
Jamal's solo work has been sampled by Hip Hop's elite – including his song "Ghetto Child" that has been sampled on nine occasions, "The World is a Ghetto" – 11 times, "Misdemeanor" – 13 times, "Pastures" – seven times, and "Swahililand" on eight occasions, all on a commercial basis!
For more information on Ahmad Jamal, please visit his personal site – http://www.ahmadjamal.net.

Lee Min Ho is the most popular Korean celebrity in Germany
If you've ever watched Boys Over Flowers, you know why Lee Min Ho rose to fame and is now popular around the world. It's no wonder then that German fans of Korean dramas recently voted Lee Min Ho as "The Celebrity Fans Most Want to See."
A German website that broadcasts Korean dramas recently did a survey for "The Celebrity Fans Most Want to See." Lee Min Ho won by a whopping majority of 58%.
Many of the German fans cited Heirs and City Hunter as the dramas where they found and fell in love with the hot Korean star. It's interesting to note, however, that the reason they say Lee Min Ho is handsome is not because he is "trendy or fashionable," but that he is "an everyday guy who is handsome."
Lee Min Ho's unique charm has a strong and positive international appeal. He was also recently reported to be the most popular Korean star for the Arabic-speaking fans. A survey of 3,000 Arabic-speaking participants reported that Lee Min Ho was the leading personage that came to mind among all South Korean entertainers and celebrities.
In late November, Lee Min Ho won Best New Actor at the Grand Bell Awards and Popularity Star Award at the Blue Dragon Film Awards. He is currently filming his new movie Bounty Hunters, which is slated to be released in 2016.
If you are an international fan, which country are you in and is Lee Min Ho your favorite star? If so, you can see more of him on DramaFever with a collection of Lee Min Ho's dramas and his movie Gangnam Blues.

I have only had one other type of cargo liner, Husky, to compare too. The liner is of good quality and fits well. The lip on the sides seems a bit too long or high for the back of my vehicle. Overall, I am happy with the product and price.

2 things every Arkansas fan needs to know today
Happy Wednesday, Arkansas fans! It was a relatively slow news day for the Razorbacks, but there's still some information that fans should know before Saturday's matchup with Tennessee.
Let's get you caught up to speed:
- Alex Collins has been a workhorse for Arkansas this season. The junior running back has racked up 502 rushing yards and four touchdowns in the Razorbacks' first four games. He ranks No. 3 in the SEC in rushing behind LSU's Leonard Fournette and UGA's Nick Chubb. That's some pretty good company. For all of his hard work, Collins was named an honorable mention in SEC Country's Offensive Player of the Year candidates after Week 4.
- It's possible that Arkansas could catch a break this weekend. Although no word has been provided on their conditions, three of Tennessee's best players were limited during the Vols' Tuesday practice. This will be something to keep an eye on throughout the week.
Other Arkansas news from around the Internet
- The Arkansas News Bureau's Eric. W. Bolin published a feature on wide receiver Drew Morgan. The junior had a career day against Texas A&M last week, catching eight passes for 155 yards and a touchdown. Morgan talked about how he's gained respect around the nation and in the Razobacks' locker room
- Multiple offensive players spoke with the media on Tuesday, and gave their thoughts on the team's matchup with Tennessee. You can view the interviews of various players and assistant coaches HERE.
- Former Arkansas great Madre Hill was named to the 2015 Southeastern Conference Football Legends class on Tuesday. The running back earned First-Team All-SEC honors while leading the Razorbacks to their first SEC Game appearance in 1995.
The best stories around the SEC
- Missouri announced that quarterback Maty Mauk will be suspended for Saturday's game against South Carolina
- Ole Miss is using an extreme practice method to prepare for Florida
- Dak Prescott explained one of the biggest reasons he returned for his senior season
- Sean White will get the start at quarterback again for Auburn
- Will Auburn's struggles force a 4-star athlete to reconsider his top 3?

Conference Programme
We are facing higher switching frequency and higher operating temperatures. Wide Band Gap Semiconductors can accommodate these increasing demands by permitting better performance than today's silicon. Passive components from heat sinks, capacitors and coils get smaller. The overall benefit is reduced sizes for the total systems in all applications. However, the challenges are having improved measurement equipment available and to analyze the designs correctly.
The Conference Programme will consist of 20-minute technical presentations covering:
- GaN ICs, SiC Modules
- Simulation and Measurement
In the afternoon, the Conference will be divided into two parallel Sessions:
- SiC – Discrete, Passives and Measurement
- GaN – Discrete, Passives and Measurement
We are expecting to hear speakers from the following companies (tentative list):
- Siemens
- ROHM Semiconductor
- Mitsubishi Electric
- Infineon Technologies
- Wolfspeed
- GaN Systems
- Navitas
- Littelfuse
- GeneSiC
- Danfoss
- Plexim
- USCi
- ON Semiconductor
- STMicroelectronics
- Yokogawa
- Vincotech
- EpiGaN
- Analog Devices
- And Many More

The core question embedded in the symposium's title reflects the realization that the world is at an inflection point, wherein a combination of technological, political, social, economic, and cultural factors changes all the answers, as well as many of the questions.
The 10th symposium in the series, held October 26, 2017, explored how the U.S. can combat asymmetric threats that have expanded in prevalence and complexity. Leaders from the military, government, industry and academia provided insight and considerations to help chart the way forward.
The Asymmetric Threat Symposium Series
The Asymmetric Threat symposium series is a non-partisan, not-for-profit, pro-bono forum for furthering the national dialogue on asymmetric threats to national security. These threats span domains, involve a growing range of state and non-state actors, and employ diverse means from terrorism to cyber aggression to nuclear proliferation. Does the United States have the technologies, processes, and systems in place to actively respond to these threats? And, with asymmetric threats increasingly targeting the private sector, how can government partner with industry to forge a new direction? The series is designed to promote dialogue on critical national security issues, focusing on ideas, events, and technologies that drive the evolution of strategic thought and practice.
Thought Leadership
In today's battle, the enemy and the fight are both everywhere and nowhere. Yet the goal remains "to deter and defeat adversaries across multiple scales of conflict intensity." America's technological, strategic, and operational edge has eroded as the result of nearly two decades of fighting at the lower end of the conflict spectrum.
The United States has assembled the best Air Force for the industrial age, and it must now transform itself to retain supremacy in the digital age. To effect this transformation, Airmen must think and act differently about how they will face adversaries in 21st century warfare.

Pseudoepiphysis of 2nd metacarpal base
Incidental finding

Case Discussion
The findings are consistent of accessory epiphysis (pseudoepiphysis) of the 2nd metacarpal base.
There are potential epiphyses at both the proximal and distal ends of the tubular hand bones. A pseudoepiphysis is an accessory epiphysis that does not significantly contribute to the longitudinal growth of a tubular bone.
One or more can occur in the same patient as normal variants, but they have also been associated with Down syndrome and hypothyroidism.

Readers and writers are designed specifically for Unicode characters and low-level readers and writers deal with chars. The java.io package provides the following low-level Reader classes:
- FileReader
- CharArrayReader
- PipedReader
- StringReader
- FileReader: The FileReader class is used to read streams of characters from a file. This class is useful to read text files.
- CharArrayReader: The CharArrayReader class reads arrays of characters by implementing a character buffer. The character array acts like a character input stream.
- PipedReader: The PipedReader class provides a piped character-input stream. It should be used with a piped character-output stream so that data written to the PipedWriter will be available from this reader.
- StringReader: The StringReader class uses strings as its source of a character stream. Individual characters can be marked and read from the string.
