 Very Exciting!!! The new Woodward Row Houses on Huntoon. Just at the North corner of The Woodward Inns on Fillmore block (Huntoon at Fillmore Street), these Row Houses were built between 1890 and 1923. They were first built as single family homes, tall and narrow sitting immediately next to each other, much like you would find in Boston or New York City. As the war came, the Row Houses were made into apartments since additional housing was needed. There were originally 2 more Row Houses but they were lost in the 1966 tornado which came across town (22 miles x 1/2 mile wide), taking the roof of The Woodward (which was then the widow Fredericka Woodward's home).

 The Woodward Row Houses on Huntoon feature adorable, luxury, shabby-chic extended stay apartments for business class. There will be 1BR, 2 BR and 3 BR hotel apartments. With vintage era features, lovely high-end furnishings and a little touch of quirkiness, this new offering should prove to be very popular!!!! Welcome to Historic Holliday Park and The Woodward Inns on Fillmore.

On January 7th, my family and I said "Goodbye" to our matriarch. She and Grandpa had been married since they were 16, totally committed in a very old-fashioned and missed way rarely seen in today's world. I know that God has taken her to be by His side, even though Grandpa and my Aunt Sis and I are lost without her! We will see her again in God's time.

 Thank you, Grandma, for all you taught me and for all the unconditional love you gave. Your hard work, intelligence and drive can be found in me. Your sense of style taught me about colors, textures and peaceful life. I am forever grateful and look forward to seeing you "in the morning".The Woodward Bloghttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1199958693042072315.post-7213955467873002592014-01-17T18:57:00.000-06:002014-01-20T15:41:58.351-06:00New Renovations to The Woodward exterior now Complete

We decided we would sell some things at a boot fair today. For my non-UK readers who might not know what a boot fair is, just imagine a huge garage sale in a field, with lots of people all selling their stuff at the same time; by my reckoning there were about 200 stalls there today – the usual mixture of the general public and a few business traders. The disadvantage compared to garage sales is that you have to pack your stuff up and take it somewhere, so obviously you'll only be able to sell what will fit in your vehicle. The advantage however is that these are usually large organised events that are well publicised, so you should get a much larger number of customers than you would with a garage sale. We have done several of these before.
What I hate about doing them:
1) They start so early – we had to be at our one at 6am today. Not good on a Sunday.
2) They take over your whole weekend. Saturday is spent sorting, pricing, and loading up the car, followed by an early night. Sunday, they finish around lunchtime, then you spend most of the afternoon trying to figure out what to do with the things you didn't sell.
3) You have to make a choice between partial dehydration, or being forced to use the disgusting portaloos on site.
What I love about doing them:
1) You get rid of a lot of junk that has been lurking around the house. This is particularly good with the kids' stuff. My kids never want to get rid of anything, but the lure of cash is a good persuader. They each keep all the money from whatever they sell of theirs – although sometimes they run off and spend their earnings at other stalls almost as quick as they are making it, so it can end up up feeling like all we have done is swap our junk for other people's.
2) Unlike most other family activities, this is one that ends with us all having a bit more money than we started with.
3) It's a great opportunity for the kids to learn some business/work skills. Together we choose what to sell and price it. They learn about customer service skills. They handle cash and give change. Most of all they learn about negotiation – at least half of the customers will offer lower than the asking price, and I let the children handle their own negotiations for their things; they used to just agree to any offer, but now they will often come in with a counter price, or simply refuse if they're not happy with the offer.
4) It's a really great place for people watching. The motley assortment of people streaming by, clutching their purchases, are very entertaining. A lot of them bring their dogs too, so it's good for dog watching too.
Overall, as long as the weather holds, it's a good thing to do. If you're looking for the best prices for your goods, then you're probably not going to get them there – people visit boot fairs for dirt cheap bargains. But if you just want to get rid of some stuff, and make a bit of pocket money, then there are worse places you could spend a morning, particularly a lovely sunny morning like we had today.

Summer Learning Findings Report: 2017 Summer Programs
Out-of-school time (OST) programs, especially summer programs, offer critical support to schools, youth, and their families. Research indicates that OST programs are more than just a safe haven for youth. High quality OST programs can support youth academically and socially. Some studies show that minorities and youth in low-income communities benefit even more than their more affluent peers suggesting that OST programs are especially important for these young people.
Public schools in Oakland serve a large proportion of youth who typically benefit from additional learning supports, including students from low-income households (73%) and English Learners (31%). High quality OST programs provide additional opportunities for youth to practice the academic and social skills they need to succeed.

Great for dance and tumbling Review by Kristin B
Overall Satisfaction
Perfect for helping my 7 yo daughter practice back bends and walkovers which she needs for her dance class. The mat is nice and firm, but still has enough give to cushion the falls. It's easy to carry, too. I can store it in the basement and then haul it upstairs if she has friends over and they want to play on it. And it's absolutely the best price anywhere online.

How much does the medium sized incline mat cost?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Monday, November 6, 2017The prices are available right here on the product page. The Medium size costs $189.95 as of today, November 6th 2017. Prices are subject to change without notice.
What size mat would be most versatile for a 5, 8, and 10 year old?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Monday, April 24, 2017Great question! It's obviously difficult to recommend a single size mat as being the best size for all three of those ages, so the best thing to do if you only want to purchase one mat is to buy on the large end and allow everyone to grow into it. The Large-Plus size is typically the largest that most homes can accommodate, and it is durable enough to allow all three of your children to use it for years to come.
Do you have a 72"x48"x16" incline mat? We already have a gym mat and its 48" wide. Would like to purchase an incline that's the same width.
Posted by We Sell Mats on Sunday, November 13, 2016Our XL incline mat is 96" x 48" x 20". That is the only incline we offer in a 48" width. You can find it at http://www.wesellmats.com/competition-incline-mat.html
What does the shipping cost for a medium incline mat
Posted by We Sell Mats on Tuesday, October 25, 2016Shipping within the 48 Unite States is free. To get a quote for shipping to destinations outside the 48 United States, please contact customer service at 704-799-9947.
Is it possible to buy replacement covers for gymnastics incline mats?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Monday, July 25, 2016Thanks for your question, but we do not offer replacement covers. To maximize the durability of the product, the covers are fully stitched and not designed to be replaced over the life of the product. If yours has been damaged beyond repair then the best course is to replace the entire mat.
Is this made of polyurethane foam? If so, what number? I understand the 70 ILD is best for back handsprings, etc...
Posted by We Sell Mats on Friday, December 4, 2015
Hi Kim, great question. Our incline mats actually have a layer of EVA foam on top of the regular poly foam core (all inside the 18oz vinyl cover), which gives the mats an ideal soft/firm balance for gymnastics training.
Would the 60-inch mat be big enough for my 7 1/2 year old daughter who is approximately 51 inches tall?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Thursday, December 3, 2015
As with so many things in life, the answer is... it depends! It really depends on how your daughter intends to use the mat and for how many years she may use it. If your daughter has a gymnastics or cheer instructor, I recommend that you discuss this question with her and take into consideration that a good incline mat like this one will last you for several years, and your daughter will only be 51 inches tall for a little while!.
One more thought: very rarely will a customer choose to return or exchange an incline mat, but almost every time it happens, it's because they chose a mat one (or two!) sizes smaller than they really needed.1 people found this answer helpful.
Is the vinyl covering slick or does it have a texture to it?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Sunday, November 29, 2015
There is no texture to the vinyl cover, but it's also not slick. The surface is tacky and has plenty of grip.
What is the foam density (ILD) in your 36x72x16 incline?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Saturday, November 14, 2015
The incline mat has a sponge foam core with a layer of EVA foam on top to provide firmness. The density rating of the EVA foam layer is 35. This makes the incline mat firm enough to provide appropriate stability; when someone is standing on the incline she or he will not sink into the mat.
How much does the 72" L x 36" W x 16" incline mat weigh?
Posted by We Sell Mats on Tuesday, November 10, 2015Hi Bill, the Large incline mat weighs approximately 40 pounds.

i like preppy clothes. think gap and express0
i like preppy clothes. think gap and express
Have an opinion?
i love when guys are clean but still have a swag, something original. I love guys in a good pair of jeans and a really well fitted shirt, not abercrombie clothing, that's gross, if I had to use a celebrity I would use david beckham, he's always well dressed not to spiff but still swaggish
Clothes that aren't: Too tight, too lose, stained/dirty, womens clothes, tacky.
Other than that I could care less...just make yourself look nice. You can never go wrong with a simple shirt and jeans.
I love guys in dress shirts with rolled up sleeves, that's really hot. Also I love guys in polo shirts and nice loose fitting jeans. A plane shirt with jeans and a blazer is pretty cool as well it all different really :)
Haha sorry LMFAO I meant plain lol autocorrect changed it haha
yesyes I agree 100% on the rolled up sleeve look. sooooooo hot.
A suit would catch my attention if he was going to work or something *.* or special ocasision but if it's like usual stuff it would be polo with jeans or shorts and flip flops or sandals :)
i LOVE guys in cargo shorts. I have no idea why but something about cargo shorts gets to me.. not the army print but the tan looking ones
I love the nerdy preppy look
ok read this carefully: PANTS THAT FIT!
also I prefer big comfy sweatshirts (they look snuggly!) try a fun color
It depends on what body type you have, but like sourpatchchik2 said, everyone looks good in just jeans and a t-shirt.
Lol, thanks.
just wear a neat clothes and not too loose if in case you are thin...
polo tops
I kind of like the country look myself =] Jeans with holes in them, that wernt bought that way, and a long sleeve plaid shirt.
skinny jeans sagging them,and a normal t shirt,I like those blank white and black t shirts or ones with band logos on them :o
ones that show you have buckets of money. yeah imma take heat for this but you can attract some girls easily that way
Eh the guy has a point

Former Greensboro police officer accused of break-in, larceny at Reidsville store
Austin, Indiana (WGHP) — A former Greensboro police officer was charged in connection with stealing more than $44,000 worth of items from a Reidsville lawn mower store, according to a press release.
On Aug. 22, 2016, Reidsville police went to Scott's Tractor located at 2019 Freeman Drive in reference to a theft. Upon arrival, they learned that three John Deer and five zero-turn riding lawn mowers were stolen. In total, the items were worth $44,035.75.
The Durham County Sheriff's Office recovered one of the lawn mowers and contacted Reidsville police. During the investigation, William White, 32, of Pleasant Garden, was identified as one of the suspects.
Detectives later learned of similar incidents under investigation by the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office and Burlington Police Department which helped further the investigation.
On Monday, Reidsville police arrested White in connection with the break-in and larceny.
White was charged with possession of stolen property and obtaining property by false pretense.
White was processed at the Reidsville police station and transported to the Alamance County Detention Center.
According to Greensboro police Public Information Officer Susan Danielsen, White joined Greensboro police in May 2010 and was fired Monday morning prior to his arrest. White had been on administrative duty since Oct. 29, 2016, for his involvement in a critical incident unrelated to this arrest.
Greensboro Police Chief Wayne Scott released the following statement on White's arrest Monday afternoon:
"I am deeply disappointed in the actions of former officer William Z. White that lead to his dismissal. His arrest is contrary to our department's values, and has the potential to erode the public's trust in the amazing work done the great men and women of the Greensboro Police Department. For those reasons, I exercised by authority to immediately terminate his employment."

Whistleblower optimistic new director will clean up Phoenix VA hospital
PHOENIX — A whistleblower said Wednesday that he is optimistic the new head of the Veterans Affairs department will change the culture at a Phoenix VA hospital still struggling to emerge from a national scandal.
"We remain cautiously optimistic that Secretary (David) Shulkin is going to bring change," Brandon Coleman told KTAR News 92.3 FM's Arizona's Morning News.
"Still, it takes time to get these changes put in place."
Coleman said while Shulkin was not his first choice to lead the VA, he has been impressed by the new secretary so far, especially after Shulkin called for public scrutiny of his agency.
"He's saying 'bring it' because he wants transparency and that's something that I've been yelling from the top of my lungs that the VA needs to do over the past two years in Phoenix is offer some sort of transparency," Coleman said.
Even though the Phoenix VA has welcomed numerous officials to tour the facility, Coleman doesn't consider it transparency.
"Phoenix, in typical fashion, they're great at the dog-and-pony show. They can bring in the president of the United States in — which they've done before with President Obama– and have them talk to exactly who they want to talk to, make sure other people aren't included, and they can make the hospital look any way they want to," he said.
Coleman said those crying foul should continue to be heard.
"If we want true transparency, like Shulkin is speaking (of), then whistleblowers need to be heard, too," he said. "At this point, it's almost unreal. Everyone wants to act like the VA is OK and there's nothing else to see here and let's move forward.
"That's disappointing, because we've got a lot of work to do to fix Phoenix."

I'm a pretty busy lady. But I'm a pretty organized one too so while my days are full, they flow pretty smoothly most of the time. However, the most chaotic time of my day is hands down between 4.00pm and 5.00pm when my two littles are tired and hungry. It's about this time that they both decide it's a good time to stand RIGHT BEHIND ME in the kitchen while I'm trying to prepare dinner. It would be easy for me to turn on the TV as a mindless distraction to keep them out from under my feet but really, there are a whole range of other screen free activities that they will become equally absorbed in – it's all about getting a little creative! Lego Duplo is my ultimate Mum Hack and is ideal for buying me time to get dinner cooked.
Here are two of my favourite creative ways to use Lego Duplo which keep my girls entertained and buy me some time during the busiest part of my day:
A little bit of advance preparation and this task not only entertains my girls but also buys me a little quiet time too while they're concentrating. Win Win! I made up some simple pattern cards to help teach matching colours and shapes. Start with a simple pattern with one shape and just a couple of colours and set out the bricks necessary to complete the task - just like in the photo below. Slowly increase the number of shapes and colours on the pattern cards, and then begin to add in additional DUPLO bricks so they need to hunt out the bricks to complete the pattern card.
An advanced variation of this is creating a clustered pattern of bricks and then getting them to make a symmetrical copy. The designs can be as simple or complex as you like. The girls have started to create patterns for each other which is so great and keeps the game going on a little longer (which buys me a little more time too!)
My girls love this one but there is nothing quiet about it! First up they spend some time building some archways using Lego Duplo then using a small ball and plastic golf club (or try building your own golf club from Lego Duplo) watch the kids have heaps of fun trying to hit the ball through the archways. As they start to get good at this, progressively make the archways smaller and smaller.

Oracle shares hit as sales disappoint again
June 25th, 2013
Oracle, the US computing giant, has been punished by investors for missing sales targets for the second quarter running. Revenue from software sales and internet subscriptions rose 1% to $4bn (£2.58bn), but was below the average $4.2bn analysts had forecast. Net profit rose 10% to $3.8bn for the fourth quarter to 31 May.
But this did not stop the share price plunging 8% in after-hours trading, after closing 2.6% down on the Nasdaq.
Revenue for the period was $10.9bn, below the $11.2bn that had been expected.
Oracle bought Sun Microsystems, the computer storage specialist, for $5.6bn in 2010. Revenue from this integrated hardware division fell 13% to $849m in the quarter, but the drop was towards the lower end of company expectations.

Hey - sorry I've been away.. I've been lost in a world of weddings, work, editing and a lack of sleep! The only thing I seem to have time to do in my private life is to take photos on my iPhone and upload them to instagram! I am however thinking that by the end of this week I'll be a little more caught up - YAY!

Bathroom Lighting
The bathroom is one of the most important rooms in your home when it comes to lighting. Because you spend a lot of time shaving and applying makeup in the bathroom, the light has to be just right. Adding lights directly above your mirror can cast shadows that make you look older while also making your beauty routine more difficult. Instead, we recommend adding lights to the side of your vanity (sconces always look great). You'll also need ambient light and if you have a large enough tub or shower, you'll need waterproof lights too. Contact us today or stop by our huge lighting store in Sacramento to get a look at all of the lighting options that will make your bathroom into the perfectly lit room it needs to be!

Caving in the Peak District
I've been caving in quite a few places in the UK, but never in the Peak District, until this weekend. I went up there with a few friends from Winchester for a long weekend to do the round trip route in Giants Hole – was a fun trip, but was very pleased the water level in the Giants Windpipe section wasn't too high.
Here's a video showing some of the more interesting sections (Giants Windpipe starts just after 6mins):
Will need to sort out getting a robust & waterproof camera to take down when I go next time, otherwise I just end up with a photo of us all standing outside the entrance, a bit like this…

Keeping sensitive customer data safe should be a top priority for companies. A security breach can have you facing the loss of those customers, a damaged reputation and possible financial liability. While there are some industry standards like PCI DSS to regulate credit card payments, there are other ways that businesses can minimize risk.
ProPay, a merchant solution provider, is offering a free white paper titled "The Data Dilemma: The Value of Secure Transaction Solutions" to educate companies about the risks they face and how they can minimize those risks. (We recently covered their MicroSecure Card Reader here.)
"Merchants conduct business today in a world fraught with regulation, security risks, and criminals intent on stealing their data transactions," said Greg Pesci, ProPay Executive Vice President of Business Strategy. "We are pleased to offer this white paper to merchants throughout the country to help them identify problems and minimize their risks while still easily conducting transactions with their business customers."
The Data Dilemma: The Value of Secure Transaction Solutions can be downloaded at the company's website www.propay.com.

As new Altcoins are constantly being launched, new projects and ideas are being discovered. Most of these altcoins have no future plans and are basically only made to profit the developers but it happens for us to find a few one's who are really standing out from your usual Altcoin. Cleverhash has this unique concept where it provides their investors with a way to redeem physical and cloud chip miners through the use of Cleverhash coins.
The first ever hardware mining manufacturer to launch it's own asic backed coin. Cleverhash is introducing the idea of backing up their own coin by linking these coins to a real life value which is their own asic miners and will provide their investors the chance to purchase these miners via the use of Cleverhash tokens.
These Cleverhash tokens have been sold at the price of .50 USD on the very well known exchange Bittrex and are going to be associated with a value of 1 USD when it comes to purchasing the Cleverhash asic miners products. This is probably the most exiting part which makes anyone who purchase these tokens below the price of 1 USD a winner when it comes to purchasing the asic products.
The team
Backed up by a very experienced team of entrepreneurs, the Cleverhash team is to be taken very seriously.
Cofounder Jonathan Lauer started his first successful company when he was only 16 years old. It was one of the first to offer 24/7 remote support services for small businesses.
Jason Kennedy, Cleverhash Technologies Cofounder, attended Georgia's Kennesaw State University, where he studied business management. Fresh out of high school, Jason started his first computer company, and later went on to develop several other successfull business in the auto, telecommunications, insurance, marine conservation and technology industries.
Michael "Sarge" Kavcak is a computer engineer with almost 20 years' experience in the industry. Sarge graduated with distinction from Penn State with a B.S. in computer engineering in 1990. He continued his education at UT-Austin, receiving an MSEE degree. Sarge has worked for such companies as AMD, Apple, and SMSC before setting out on his own as a consultant.
The products
Cleverhash is aiming to design the most advanced ASIC processor in the Cryptocurrency world. What makes their miners so unique compared to all the other miners on the market is the power consumption it is going to be using and the multiple algorithms these miners are able to mine.
Customers can choose either the X11, X13, or X15 algorithm, based cryptocurrencies to be mined.
Cleverhash is introducing 3 different miners to be redeemed with the hash tokens. Two of these miners will come with a cloud mining ship which allow owners to sell these cloud hashes on the unique decentralized cloud mining platform which we will introduce later on.
1-The Subsonic is the less powerful one hashing at a speed of 150MH. The price of this miner is set to 900 USD or 900 Cleverhash tokens.
2-The Sonic miner provide the performance of 127, R9, and 280X video cards. These gpus would normally cost around $38 000 and consumes about 20.3 kilowatts of power when running the X11 algorithm. The price of the Sonic miner is $3,985 or 3,985 Cleverhash Tokens and will be mining at an outstanding rate of 600 MH/s and will consume from 90% to 98% less electricity then a gpu mining rig providing the same hashing rate.
3-The Aurora is the third and most powerful of their products. It will produce 1,200,000 MH/s, or speeds of 1.2 Gigahash with a power consumption of around 750 watts. The aurora miner price is $7,499 or 7,499 Cleverhash Tokens.
As stated previously two of these miners are going to be provided with a cloud mining chip.
Both the Aurora and Sonic ASIC miner will include an additional "cloud chip." Users can activate the optional cloud feature! Without affecting your advertised hash-rate, an additional speed of 300 MH will be pointed to your cloud mining platform that will be interfaced with the wallet Qt, or accessed via Satoshiscloud.com for your management.
Asic owners will have the choice of either renting these hash rates or adding them to their actual asic mining power and claim the direct payouts. If you don't wish to go over the trouble of receiving your physical miners via delivery you will also be given the option to host your purchased miners on the cloud hashing network. You will still be able to claim the delivery of your physical product at any time if you change your mind.
The platform is directly featured into the very good looking Cleverhash wallet as seen below;
Our strategy is to decentralize the hardware over a peer-to-peer network. The ultimate control resides with the owner of the hardware, as it is optional to plug into the network to rent out your chips hash-rate.
Cleverhash team went through a full trust verification provided by the very popular CoinsSource which aim to establish the legitimacy of the developpers behind some of the most popular altcoins on the market. They have been awarded with the highest trust score verification which adds to their good reputation.
Why did you decide to get into the mining hardware?
We got into mining back in 2013 before there were ASIC miners available and were thrilled when the hardware became available. After ordering from many of the companies we experienced more negatives than positives. It for this reason that we felt it was important to create a product that would empower the little guy and remove as many of the potential negative experiences by doing it the right way. Limited production, affordability and decentralized cloud mining that would be just a few of our core focuses.
What are your future plans regarding product range?
Our core focus isn't quantity but quality. In providing a solution that will empower 4,000 customers as that will be our production cap for our hardware. Only the exclusive customer base will have the ability to purchase more equipment down the road. We plan on developing other algorithm based chips for continued growth versus mass production. This should add value to our customer by looking out for their mining interest first.
Could you explain what is the next big step following your crowdfunding?
Our next big steps include the development of the decentralized cloud mining platform, Website product launch & other equity crowdfunding campaigns to fill any gaps in funding requirements through websites like crowdfunder.com
We expect to have our plates full for the foreseeable future and are looking forward to delivering to the community services and products that maintain value longer and empower the community.

In between chasing spies, and trying to save the world from garden-variety bad guys, they sat down the other day in Toronto to enjoy some Pho. And by "they," I mean
Nikita, aka the always comely
Maggie Q, and her merry band of cast/crew.
Putting in the requisite long hours to shoot, as they do here, the stylish new CW series, sustenance must be had to keep up strength — all those shoot-'em-ups take a lot out of you — and the star of the show had summarily snapped her fingers for some Vietnamese.
Indeed, I later ran into one of those aforementioned crew members who just happened to mention that they still had, in their car, some leftover Pho. (Footnote: As a writer, one really cannot employ the word "Pho" enough times. It's a gift, it really is.)The food agenda-setting action star — née Margaret Denise Quigley, and known best in America, at least before her TV mission, for
Mission: Impossible IIIand
Live Free or Die Hard— comes by her Pho naturally. Raised in Hawaii, she is the product of a Polish-Irish father and a Vietnamese mother who met — oh yes — during the Vietnam war.
But, alas, the 31-year-old Maggie Q (as she began to be known in Hong Kong, where her career really took off) isn't just putting her mark on this version of Nikita with her rice noodles, this columnist will have you know — she's also having a big influence on the crew of the show, in terms of its collective size. Because the actress is such a bird of a thing — "unfathomably thin," is how New York magazine put it not long ago — there's been a trickle-down at its east-end studio.
"Everyone on the set is losing weight," is what I'm told. Taking their cues (or should I say Q's) from Maggie, a good many of them have been absorbing slim-down suggestions. The hows and whys of protein powders! Food Combinations 101! You name it! (In its way, this is the film/TV set reversal of the notorious sympathy weight that occurs when a woman is pregnant, and the dad-to-be starts piling on too!)
Final note: Did you know that in Asia, Maggie Q inspires Justin Bieber-like frenzy? According to the New York mag profile I mentioned earlier, "Toronto is a relative haven" in this respect. A city, in which Q "does her own laundry, goes to the farmers' market, and drives herself to work."
A city where she can even, conceivably, even go out for Pho in peace.
Meanwhile, I see, I hear:
That a glass-raising has been planned for Thursday, this week, to inaugurate Toronto's newest Hôtel Le Germain, nestled on Maple Leaf Square.
And putting out the welcome carpet herself? That would be Montreal's
Christiane Germain, who's behind the fast-growing portfolio of hotels.

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome is an inflammatory response resulting from injury to the alveolar-‐capillary membrane. This injury is caused by a systemic inflammatory response that involves either direct trauma to the lung cells, such as a pneumonia, or indirect, such as sepsis. The inflammatory response that is triggered results in leaky alveolar-‐capillary beds and infiltration of the lungs (Villar, 2011). This is very common with approximately 150,000 cases annually in the United States and a very high mortality rate of 60,000 deaths per year (Pipeling & Fan, 2010). Despite the high mortality rate, 15-‐35%, there is no set of guidelines for treatment of this condition, and methods of mechanical ventilation are only supportive (Zaglam, Jouvet, Flechelles, Emeriaud & Cheriet, 2014). The most severe form of ARDS is refractory hypoxemia, a life threatening condition, in which there is not an adequate amount of oxygen delivered to the tissues (Villar & Kacmarek, 2013). With more than 60 causes of ARDS, it is essential for nursing staff working directly with these patients to be aware of signs and early detection allowing more rapid initiation of treatment modalities in the hope of decreasing patient mortality (Taylor, 2005).

The Bluegrass Community Connectors project named 144 "connectors" Tuesday in an effort to create new networks of local activists and to better link traditional and grass-roots leadership in the region.
The connectors were chosen from among 5,000 nominations received from the public in online balloting since last August. Most of the connectors met for a morning session and lunch at the Marriott Griffin Gate hotel to get to know each other and discuss regional issues.
Counties included in the project, which was led by the United Way of the Bluegrass, were Anderson, Bourbon, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Jessamine, Madison, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford.
At least half of the connectors who emerged from the balloting were well-known, traditional leaders — mayors, city council members, business leaders and heads of non-profit organizations in the 10-county Lexington metro area.
"But about half of them are not the usual suspects, and that's the big takeaway," said Karen Stephenson, a cultural anthropologist who has taught at Harvard and UCLA and donated her time to organize this project and previous ones in four other cities.
The main purpose of the project was to identify grass-roots leaders who may not know each other or many of the traditional leaders. Introducing them to each other will create new networks of people already active in their communities who can then hook up for future projects.
Stephenson said that if she were a traditional leader, she would look at this list and say, "Who do I not know, and why? Then I would make a beeline to them and figure out what they're doing and how I can get them connected to some of the more well-known connectors."
Stephenson said she was impressed that the most-nominated people represented a range of ages and races. Fayette County had the most connectors, and the most connections among them, based on a follow-up survey the connectors completed.
That was to be expected, she said, given Fayette County's dominant role in the region.
Interestingly, the three counties with the least connected relationships were Anderson, Clark and Bourbon. What that pointed out, Stephenson said, was an opportunity to integrate those counties more into regional discussions.
How the connectors make use of this new visibility will be up to them.
Deborah Knittel, a community activist in Versailles, said the session gave her fresh ideas and renewed enthusiasm for tackling some issues in her community.
"This does not need to stop here," said Kent Lewis, a young technology executive who has organized the TEDxLex idea-sharing conference in Lexington for the past two years.
"I can send anyone an email and say I am a connector, too, do you have a minute or time for a coffee to discuss something?" he said. "The question of credibility is not there, because this project did that already."

Why Computer Science?
The computer has transformed the world. The penetration of computer-driven technology into the vital systems of modern society is so pervasive that it is difficult to imagine life today without it. In today's world, understanding how technology works, how the Internet works, and how to solve problems with computational thinking are as important as learning how electricity works, how digestion works, or how to solve problems using algebra. It seems self-evident that something so essential should be a natural part of education from an early age, and indeed, many young people have a natural appetite for it. This is what Computer Science at SDMC is all about: We aim to feed the natural curiosities young people have about computer science and challenge them in an individualized way to learn systematic thinking and to apply this solve problems computationally.
Who may participate?
In view of the need for students to sustain independent focus an effort over a considerable time to make individual progress, this activity targets middle school and high school aged students.
What Students Learn from This Program:
In the two previous SDMC seasons students learned the fundamentals of computer science themed Computational thinking and problem solving, Programming with Python.
The 2016-2017 season's theme is
Algorithms in the Era of IoT (Internet of Things)
Each lecture will first teach a classic algorithmic problem and its solution in Java or Python program. The students will learn how the solution is used in the latest technology such as Social Networking, Cloud Computing, Big Data, Cyber Security, Artificial Intelligence and IoT.
Why algorithm design is becoming more important in new technology. Let's hear what experts say:
"Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs"
"Software is getting slower more rapidly than hardware becomes faster." (Wirth's law)
- By Niklaus Wirth, computer scientist, Turing award recipient.
"I will, in fact, claim that the difference between a bad programmer and a good one is whether he considers his code or his data structures more important. Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structure and their relationships."
- By Linus Torvalds, creator of Linux
"By 2025, 80 percent of the functions doctors do will be done much better and much more cheaply by machines and machine learned algorithms"
- By Vinod Khosla, co-founder of Sun Microsystems
What is the cost?
There are no fees, tuition, or other charges to participate. This is made possible in part through the donation of materials and service we wish to acknowledge:
Textbook. There is no designated text book, some examples will be based on the book Algorithms, 4th edition by Sedgewick and Wayne.
Instruction. Free; the class is taught and led by volunteers.
Costs not specifically covered through these in-kind contributions are absorbed by SDMC and ultimately covered by donations to SDMC as 501(c)(3) public charity. SDMC encourages contributions from individuals and corporate sponsors in order to assure that activities such as this can be developed and sustained.
