I heard about The Appraisers Club webinar via an email and thought 'just another group, wanting a new fee for something' although I felt I had
little to lose by sitting in on the webinar. Needless to say I am happy I stayed on the webinar to hear them out. I have been appraising for 17
years and in that time I have found appraisers are not typically supportive of each other. We work in an industry which has been hit hard by
regulations and in turn has prompted a dog eat dog mentality.
In listening to the webinar The Appraisers Club is designed to have a positive, upbeat and supportive environment which sounds very refreshing.

*Actual opinion from appraiser
I know that joining the Appraiser's Club will only help me make my company more successful and profitable for my future; which is what we all are looking for in this industry.
Thank you again and have a great day!
*Actual opinion from appraiser
I just wanted let you know that prior to your seminar, I was already decided to quit appraisal business for good.
You gave me hope, and I will give this business a last "shot". I just wanted let you know that.
Look forward to working with you.
*Actual opinion from appraiser
I really did enjoy the webinar today and I subscribed to the Appraisers Club. This is information that I have been "intending to" learn, research, etc. I've known for some time now that I had to begin to change w/ the changing industry. I'm pretty excited for the training and information you all have compiled.
*Actual opinion from appraiser
I wasted very little time in placing my order, and as I mentioned in the Webinar comments, it was actually a very positive webinar that really gave everyone a lift. You did an excellent job of laying out a path to success for appraisers that would appear to be already proven, and all we have to do is follow the direction provided, work as hard as we can, and harder than anyone else in our geographic region, while also doing what we can in the way of innovation along with the concept of the gestalt that we commonly see in group settings that are not too large, and give back to the group in return.
Again, thanks, and I can't wait to work with you,

World leaders and opinion-makers are condemning North Korea's test of a small nuclear device in defiance of international warnings against doing so.
"It is deplorable that Pyongyang defied the strong and unequivocal call from the international community to refrain from any further provocative measures." — U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
"North Korea's nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs constitute a threat to U.S. national security and to international peace and security. The United States remains vigilant in the face of North Korean provocations and steadfast in our defense commitments to allies in the region." — U.S. President Barack Obama.
"This nuclear test by North Korea is totally unacceptable, as it constitutes a grave threat to Japan's security, represents a grave challenge to the international disarmament and non-proliferation regime centered on the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, and seriously undermines the peace and security of Northeast Asia ..." — Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea, heedless of widespread international opposition, has again carried out a nuclear test, to which the Chinese government expresses its firm opposition." — China's Foreign Ministry.
"North Korea's nuclear test despite strong warnings from us and the international community is nothing more than an act of isolating itself." — South Korean President-elect Park Geun-hye.
"North Korea's development of its nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities poses a threat to international and regional security. Its repeated provocations only serve to increase regional tension, and hinder the prospects for lasting peace on the Korean Peninsula." — British Foreign Secretary William Hague.
"We are anxious that Pyongyang's recent step will not be used as a pretext to boost (its) military presence around the Korean peninsula." — Russia's Foreign Ministry.
"'We call upon the DPRK to refrain from such actions which adversely impact on peace and stability in region." — Indian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Syed Akbaruddin.
"It constitutes a clear threat to international peace and security and challenges efforts to strengthen global nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation. I am gravely concerned by this action, which deserves universal condemnation." — Tibor Tóth, executive secretary of the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization.
"This irresponsible act, along with the December missile launch, poses a grave threat to international peace, security and stability." — North Atlantic Council, NATO's governing body.
"The international community should respond to this latest provocation with a clear stance." — German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle.
"The IAEA remains ready to contribute to the peaceful resolution of the DPRK nuclear issue by resuming its nuclear verification activities in the country as soon as the political agreement is reached among countries concerned." — International Atomic Energy Agency Director-General Yukiya Amano.
"North Korea's future security and prosperity can only be secured through constructive relations with its neighbors and the international community." — Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard.

No special five as they could be any five from my collection.
I started with a somewhat "loose" rotation late in the fall, but lately, I've just been wearing a little bit of everything. Strangely, I've actually been wearing lighter, more "summery" scents like Neroli Portofino, Creed Original Vetiver, Silver Mountain Water & GIT recently. Don't get me wrong...I do enjoy my winter gourmands, but sometimes I just need a break from them and crave something lighter & fresher. I'm starting to hear LIDGE calling my name again, though, so....
Ya know I tend to do the same at times, ill break out the Chanel Bleu in the cold weather. It has a good projection of creamy citrus in the cold weather.

Chinese man trademarks Zidane headbutt
Mark up for grabs for $125,000
A Chinese entrepreneur has registered an image of French captain Zinedine Zidane headbutting Italian defender Marco Materazzi in last month's World Cup final as a trademark for clothing, shoes, hats and beer products, according to reports.
Zhao Xiaokai hopes to sell the mark for US$125,000, reports Chinese news site Xinhua Online. The image is a silhouette, apparently in an attempt to avoid infringing Zidane's image rights.
Zidane has fought to protect his image rights before. Last year he and four other soccer stars – David Beckham, Luis Figo, Raul and Ronaldo – joined their club, Real Madrid, in filing infringement suits against seven online bookies that allegedly used their names and images in online marketing material without consent.
It is possible that Zidane and Materazzi will argue that Zhao has no rights to trademark the head-butt image, even as a silhouette, given they arguably are still recognisable.
In the UK, the law of passing off can sometimes be used to prevent a celebrity's image being used overtly to promote a commercial product. The closest the UK courts have come to recognising a "celebrity right" was racing driver Eddie Irvine's success against talkSPORT in the High Court in March 2002, although the decision was consistent with existing principles. It simply recognised the commercial value of personal endorsements.
In Irvine's case, a promotional brochure was sent to less than 1,000 people advertising radio station Talk Radio, with a photo that had been doctored to show Irvine holding a radio bearing a Talk Radio logo, instead of a mobile phone, which he was holding in the original photo.

- Europa League
Reds optimistic Suarez will avoid ban
Liverpool are hopeful that Luis Suarez will avoid retrospective action from UEFA over an alleged stamping incident during the Europa League match against Zenit St Petersburg.
Zenit's players accused Suarez, 26, of deliberately stepping on defender Tomas Hubocan in the closing stages of Thursday's second leg.
Hubocan fell to the ground under pressure while trying to shepherd the ball out for a goal kick, and television cameras showed Suarez's foot in the small of the defender's back.
The Uruguay international, though, has insisted it was an accident, and Liverpool are understood to believe their top scorer has no case to answer after reviewing the footage.
Dutch referee Bjorn Kuipers took no action at the time - not even awarding a free-kick - but could ask UEFA to review the incident in his match report.
If he does - and only if he does - then European football's governing body will decide early this coming week whether its disciplinary committee is required.
Suarez could face a three-game European ban, but Liverpool are optimistic that it will not come to that, feeling that Kuipers was well-placed at the time to deal with the incident.

The latest development in the saga of the Imam's Army suggests a novel development in political history: Conspiracy theories–which you would not think capable of agency or intention–have quietly, secretly penetrated every organ of the Turkish body politic, where they have been lying in wait patiently, waiting for the signal from their hidden master. They have, as of today, taken control. Whoever we think we're dealing with, they're not really in charge anymore. The conspiracy theories are:
Remember I mentioned the site that claims to have Ahmet Şık's book and to be counting down to releasing it on the Internet? Reported today in Hürriyet: 'The website's manager appears to be "cemaat" and the address in the site's "Information" section is that of Fethullah Gülen's real address in Pennsylvania. The person who purchased the URL apparently lives in Washington.'
Oh, oh, oh. So many questions. First–what the hell? You get it what a cemaat is, right? There's no translation with all the emotive overtones in English. The literal translation is "religious organization," but in this context it should be translated as "a member of Fethullah Gülen's multi-tentacled conspiracy to bring the entire solar system under his control." Now remember, Şık's book–allegedly–contains evidence that Gülen has taken control of the police, and when the police carted him off, Şık was shouting, "Anyone who touches Gülen burns!" So the intimation that this website is actually a Gülenist front is–how can I put this?–look, whoever's handling this book's publicity, can we be in touch? I want you on Team Berlinski.

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure AV still had a year left on his contract when he was given the extension.herb wrote:AV and the Canucks agreed to a two year contract extension last year, meaning he only has one year left on his deal after this season. I'm sure ownership wouldn't be too happy about having to eat the salary of the current coaching staff, but I don't think one year would be a deciding factor if Gillis thinks a change in direction is needed.
Meaning: I think he's signed til 2015.
Having said that, if Gillis were to admit his mistake I don't think Aquaman would have TOO much of a problem.

The creation of crystal, a Viking triangle and stepping up spiral towers – we present five fabulous things to do in Waterford City
"It was a long journey that started out in 1783, and now we celebrate our heritage right in the centre of the city," says David McCoy of Waterford Crystal. The final product looks gorgeous in the showroom, but if you want your mind blown, you need to see it being crafted.
At the House of Waterford Crystal Visitor Centre, you get the chance to ask glassworkers how they turn out a twinkling masterpiece from a molten blob. Look out for the Sean Egan-designed sculpture with intaglio engraving, which was dedicated to the New York rescue workers involved in 9/11. The same magic is happening at the hands of the folks at The Irish Handmade Glass Company. Pop into Henrietta Street for a peek.
Want to know Waterford's foodie secrets? Then seek out the indefatigable Jack Burtchaell of Waterford Walking Tours. He will regale you with amusing, informative and sometimes shocking tales as he points out some top sights. One of the most curious is the story of the first frog in Ireland, brought into Waterford by the Franciscan friars.
"They had very strict rules in those days," says Jack, "so they introduced frogs as a food to augment the Lenten diet of the Middle Ages and prohibition of meat on Fridays." The tour passes the Roman Catholic and Church of Ireland Cathedrals both designed by the same architect, John Roberts. You also see the Bishop's Palace, Reginald's Tower, and the Choristers' Hall, which opened in 2012.

Before they went back to Scandinavia, the Vikings left their mark in Waterford. Reginald's Tower is one of the most impressive. The tower is the only monument in Ireland named in honour of a Viking – possibly Ragnall or Reginald, the founder of the city in 914AD. Make your way up the narrow spiral staircase to the second floor and try imagine this 13th-century tower enduring attacks by the native Irish.
Time for some treasure hunting. See the delicately designed Ring Pin decorated on each side? It dates from around 950AD and was among other Hiberno-Norse metalwork excavated only a few hundred meters away. It's all part of the superb Viking Treasures collection on display here.
Spraoi is the Irish word for fun, and there could be no better way to describe this festival. One of Ireland's biggest street carnivals, Spraoi covers Waterford in a riot of colour and craic (fun). Think live music, street performers and fireworks. And think free.
Taking place every August, Spraoi sees big-time bands, epic floats and theatre take over the city's streets for the kind of carnival that's tailor-made for families and the young-at-heart.
Call it a roll, call it a bap or call it a bun, Waterford's blaa is delicious regardless. We're not quite sure how they manage to make it so floury, soft and scrumptious and the recipe is closely-guarded. Potter down to the Farmer's Market on Jenkin's Lane, held each Saturday, and you'll leave with a few freshly-baked examples of Waterford's most famous food.
Pick up some local cheese, meats, organic juices, pastries and you've got the perfect picnic. And where to set that picnic? Tramore beach. Just a ten minute jaunt from Waterford City, this is a stunning slice of seaside. The long sandy strand has hosted thousands of childhood memories, from burying dad in the sand to rolling down bumpy dunes and rollercoasters at the fun fair.
Experience with a blaa, and you'll get a true taste of Waterford.

ALTADENA, Calif. (AP) — Two police helicopters collided over a helipad Saturday, leaving six Pasadena officers with minor injuries, officials said.
A chopper that was landing came into contact with one that was taking off, Lt. Phlunte Riddle said.
The collision caused the rotor blade of one of the helicopters to fall off and its tail to break, but Riddle said she didn't have further details.
The injured were taken to hospitals for further evaluation after the 4 p.m. collision in Altadena. Riddle said they included a pilot and an observer in each of the Bell OH-58A helicopters and two officers on the ground.
One helicopter crew was on routine patrol and the other was assigned to monitor traffic from the UCLA-Southern California football game at the Rose Bowl, she said.
The weather was drizzly and cloudy at the time of the accident.
FAA spokesman Allen Kenitzer said his agency and the NTSB will investigate.

RALEIGH � River Mill spent 27 minutes of its first state championship berth building a substantial lead against perennial power Bishop McGuinness.
Then, in the course of five minutes, Bishop McGuinness snatched the air out of the Jaguars with 15 straight points.
It was a run that came too late for River Mill to respond, with Bishop McGuinness capturing a 57-52 victory in the Class 1-A girls� state championship on Saturday afternoon at Reynolds Coliseum.
The victory marks the eighth straight state championship for Bishop McGuinness � an unprecedented stretch for boys� or girls� basketball in North Carolina.
�I know how badly our girls, especially our seniors, wanted this,� said River Mill coach Hamilton Perkins. �I know it�s rough for them right now but just to be here serves as a great testimony for the many accomplishments.�
Senior Lenaira Ruffin played the starring role for River Mill (28-4), tallying 17 points and 15 rebounds. She also had four steals, three assists and two blocked shots.
River Mill led 50-39 with 5:48 left on the strength of back-to-back baskets by freshman Lenaja Ruffin, Lenaira�s sister.
The rally from Bishop McGuinness (25-7) came quickly, starting with 4:17 left. In a span of 2:19, River Mill saw its 11-point lead evaporate into a four-point hole. In that time, River Mill missed six field goals and three free throws and committed a pair of turnovers.
A 3 from Tia Cappuccio, a bucket from Julia Brown and a traditional three-point play from Olivia DeFrancesco cut River Mill�s lead to 50-48 with less than three minutes left.
When River Mill�s Kayla Burns was whistled for a charge on the ensuing possession, a 3-pointer by Cameron Nieters gave Bishop McGuinness its first lead since the 5:28 mark of the first quarter.
The Jaguars� Daijah Faucette missed a layup on the next possession, leading to another 3-pointer by Cappuccio in front of the Villains� bench and with coach Brian Robinson pleading to take more time off the clock.
There was no hesitation from Cappuccio.
�I didn�t really see (Robinson) telling me to stop, so � I was feeling it,� Cappuccio said with a chuckle.
Marla Crawford scored with 56 seconds left to put the Jaguars within two at 54-52, but a couple free throws by Tessa Johnson put the game effectively in hand in the final seconds for Bishop McGuinness.
�Yeah, they were coming back. They were getting all hyped. But I still think we should have won,� Crawford said, �� Because I just feel like we were a better team than them.�
Even Robinson was guilty of believing his team�s historical run would come to a halt.
�We feel extremely fortunate to win this game. We looked like we were down and out for the count two or three times in the fourth quarter,� Robinson said.
Bishop McGuinness� Brown was named the game�s Most Outstanding Player for her 17-point, 14-rebound effort. She had 10 of her points in the second half after the Villains made more of an effort to go inside against the undersized River Mill team.
�We were missing, I was missing quite a few shots,� Brown said. �I know when I came out, Coach Robinson was like, �Keep shooting, it�s OK, you�re taking good shots.�
�I kind of took that and was like, �OK, just keep shooting, they�ll eventually go in� and they did eventually go in, thankfully.�
River Mill limited Bishop McGuinness� chances for the first three quarters before being outscored 20-7 in the last frame. A 10-0 run in the first quarter gave River Mill a lead it didn�t relinquish until the excruciating final five minutes.
�Looking at the stats at halftime, we were up by a rebounding standpoint by about three or four. That was our point of emphasis,� Perkins said. �Looking at the end result for rebounds, we were out-rebounded decisively (49-37), it�s a little shocking.�
Cappuccio and Nieters each scored 12 points for Bishop McGuinness.
Ruffin was the only player in double-figure scoring for River Mill, as Kayla Burns added nine points and Crawford scored eight points.

I'll try that different location thing... and I was already going to ask them, but since there was no classes Labor Day, I haven't been here, heh. Thanks guys. I'll keep you updated.
This is our world now. The world of the electron and the switch. The beauty of the baud. We exist without nationality, skin color, or religious bias. You wage wars, murder, cheat, lie to us and try and make us think it's for our own good, yet we are the criminals. Yes I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. I am a hacker and this is my manifesto. You may stop me but you can't stop us all.
That's right. I'm 10100111001.

Okay, the different locations thing was a bust. I went to the IT room today(I had to go there anyway cause I couldn't get the damned internet working at all last night) and they told me that online gaming WILL get me booted. Apparently it's been charged with "taking too much bandwidth". Which is probably true, but dammnit all. I'm paying for college. At least give me my hobby back for what little free time I do have. Here's what they use if anyone's interested... http://www.bluesocket.com/
Yea my college is pretty lame in that aspect also. I can barely use Instant Messaging much less play video games.
Check for a wireless problem caused from something like a phone or usb wireless mouse using 2.4Ghz.
Just a thought of one more possible thing.
Nevermind, read down farther and found out your school sucks.
well, watching the stats from my FPS games, its a constant 15k/sec download and a few k upstream.
Yes, 100 people doing that can be a pain for internet but if you expect people to live there its not unreasonable.
Mind you, I forget the souls that download every game demo going and then a 200Mb texture pack, 300Mb patch and every custom map they can get their hands on. Still, I'd say its rather an unreasonable restriction.
If the world doesn't stop annoying me I will name my kids ";DROP DATABASE;" and get revenge.

QinetiQ to Donate £10k towards Samuel Franklin Cody Statue
In a letter dated November 2012, QinetiQ CEO Leo Quinn confirmed to the Farnborough Air Sciences Trust (FAST) that the company is willing to donate £10,000 towards the cost of a statue of Samuel Franklin Cody, one of the early pioneers of aviation to be erected in time for the 100th anniversary of his death in August 2013.
In his letter, Leo Quinn wrote
I am pleased to confirm that QinetiQ is delighted to contribute £10,000 to support the erection in Farnborough of a statue of Samuel Franklin Cody, marking the centenary of his death in 1913.
As you may know, your request for support was picked up by a number of employees and they brought the request to the attention of their line managers, suggesting that QinetiQ should be associated with the project. Samuel Franklin Cody has a strong tie to Farnborough and QinetiQ and, consequently, many of our employees feel an affiliation and desire to support one of the greatest early aviators. We therefore feel that it is appropriate that QinetiQ supports this project.
QinetiQ join both Rushmoor Borough Council and Hampshire County Council which have already made substantial contributions to the fund which is being administered by FAST, a registered charity.
Further details of the project are available at http://www.codystatue.org.uk/ or from FAST on 07702 742594
Notes for Editors:
A FTSE250 company, QinetiQ uses its domain knowledge to provide technical support and know-how to customers in the global aerospace, defence and security markets.

There haven't been a lot of highs this season for the Oliver Springs Bobcats, but that wasn't the case Friday night as Wiley Brackett's squad picked up their first win of the season with a 26-0 victory at Wartburg.
"This is so good for the boys," Oliver Springs head coach Wiley Brackett said after the game. "We've played a tough schedule this year, but they've continued to play hard. Hopefully, this can carry over next week against Sweetwater."

After facing two of the top rushing defenses the past two games, the Ravens will oppose one of the worst Sunday. Against the Cincinnati Browns and San Francisco 49ers, the Ravens rushed for 197 total yards, showing a bigger commitment to Ray Rice and the running game. Rice, along with Ricky Williams, should again figure prominently in the game plan with the Browns allowing 138.6 yards per game on the ground. That puts them 29th in the NFL. Linebacker D'Qwell Jackson (above, tackling Rice), a former University of Maryland standout, is the Browns' top run stopper. He is currently tied for fourth in the NFL with 100 tackles. He'll have even more responsibility this week with fellow linebacker Scott Fujita going on injured reserve after he broke his hand in two places last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Bengals running back Cedric Benson gouged the Browns for 106 yards rushing and a touchdown last week. It was the sixth time the Browns have allowed a 100-yard rusher this season. In six career games against the Browns, Rice has averaged 80.7 yards on the ground with two rushing touchdowns to go along with 15 catches for 80 yards. EDGE: RAVENS

Sony suspends slate sales
Water-tight tablets open to the elements
Sony has put the brakes on shipments of its Android-based Xperia tablets, the company admitted today, after the Android slab sprung a leak.
The Xperia Tablet S, launched early in September at the IFA consumer electronics show, was said by Sony to be water resistant. However, a manufacturing flaw ensured that gaps between the screen and its surround provided a way for water to get in.
It's not known whether the glitch was spotted during routine quality assessment tests, or by punters using their Xperias in the rain or the bath.
But Sony said it will stop selling the S until it has sorted out the error on its production lines. It did not say when that might take place.
The company said it has shipped 100,000 of the potentially leaky slates and promised to fix those already in users' hands. According to Reuters, Sony doesn't expect this to cost it a significant sum.
Still, it's a blow to a company trying to establish itself as a key player in the tablet market alongside Apple, Samsung and Asus. To that end, it added the Xperia brand to its tablets this year in the hope of bringing them brand recognition as its smartphones. ®

Aix looks so enticing! Love all the colors. Did you follow your own orders, and bring back the shopping bag, the dish towel, etc?ReplyDelete
They gave me a FAB bag at the salon. Blogging has its perks.Delete
I want to be there right now. It all looks so yummy.ReplyDelete

Your Café Au Lait bowl and palettes are so perfect!
I LOVE the cherries too..how cute are they..do you know you can have fabric printed with your art? By the yard?

Yum. Your travels are always so delicious looking! I'm sorry but I've been to Saint Tropez and noone there looks like they've ever eaten a Saint Tropez doughnut thingy! They must be trying to fatten up the tourists. (Mission accomplished!)ReplyDeleteReplies
Ya gotta try it.Delete
I agree but it is very light, almost fluffy
It was surprisingly delish though it looks the opposite
I was in St. Trop a couple of times way back when..
I've heard French friends rave about the Tarte Tropezienne and there are knockoffs everywhere now.
Okay, now I am starting to become very envious of you. I love the idea of a picnic - that is so smart.ReplyDelete
When you travel to very hot places how do you avoid hat-hair? I really wish someone would say since I don't weather well and end up looking like an unmade bed.
Your colors are glorious today.Replies
Nobody takes off their hats there = sunstroke I guessDelete
In a place like Aix it takes too much effort to worry about stuff like that
It ain't Paris! ;)
The color!!! The fruit!!! I swoon! And I want one fo everything....no, make that TWO!ReplyDelete

I love your blog today! I am going to Provence in September and I can't wait to eat all the delicious juicy fresh fruit. I hear the melons are really special! We're going to Nimes, Uzes, Avingnon and Orange and then to the Luberon and finally from Cassis to Ventimiglia! Ah! What a wonderful French Fruit Extravaganza and lucky me, because I'm a Fruigavore!ReplyDelete
So happy you moved to France. I would love to sometime. But till then, your blog gives me a little piece of France everyday!

Thank you for allowing me to relive a wonderful trip to Aix - I love the colors.

I'm no longer in Aix so no access but try dear old
Carol, I don't know which of these captures my imagination more--your beautiful sketch or those wonderful pictures!ReplyDelete
I am (sigh) one of those guilty culprits who stand by the sink and devour globs of those fabulous spreads.(YUM)(!)

Retiring Teemu Selanne fights back tears after Ducks eliminated
A class act until the end, even the Los Angeles Kings stuck around to bid Teemu Selanne a fond farewell.
The Anaheim Ducks winger's storied NHL career came to an end with his team's elimination in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinal Friday.
"There's not many guys left in this league that have earned the respect and admiration of not only the fans but the players he played against," said Kings winger Justin Williams. "We would have stood out there for 20 minutes if we could. If that is his last game, and I imagine it is, I don't know, he has nothing to be upset about. He was an awesome player."
Selanne fought back tears on the ice following the 6-2 loss to the Kings as he was given one last standing ovation.
The Finnish Flash broke into the league as a 20-year-old with the original Winnipeg Jets and is retiring after 22 seasons.
"It's sad, that guy has been an unbelievable player in this league for so long, everyone respects him," said Kings defenceman Drew Doughty. "He deserves that respect. To see him go, to know that next year we'll play Anaheim without him out there is going to feel weird. I couldn't be more happy for him, he had an unbelievable career. I guess you feel bad in a way that we ended it this way."

Diabetes mellitus is a pancreatic disease primarily affecting carbohydrate metabolism. In this condition, the pancreas is unable to secrete sufficient insulin to maintain a normal blood glucose level. This results in abnormally high levels of blood sugar, causing the symptoms of thirst, hunger, emaciation, and weakness. The imperfect combustion of fats may ensue, resulting in ketosis-- high levels of ketones in the body. Difficult breathing, heart problems, and even coma may occur in the complicated stages of diabetes.
Diabetes insipidus is a condition associated with the kidney's inability to conserve water. It is caused by the failure of the hypothalamus to release anti-diuretic hormone, resulting in the passage of large amounts of urine. This is often accompanied by a voracious appetite, loss of strength, and emaciation.
Who is Diabetic?
Diabetes mellitus is far more prevalent than diabetes insipidus. It affects more than 10 million people in the United States and causes over 30,000 deaths each year; it contributes to an additional 100,000 deaths annually. Diabetes is costly for Americans-- over 18 billion dollars are spent every year to treat the disease. Its prevalence increases with age from affecting approximately .1% of the population under 17 years of age to reaching approximately 8% of persons over age 65.
The non-insulin, dependent type of diabetes usually occurs in obese people who are age 40 or older. They have higher than normal amounts of insulin in their blood but are resistant to the action of this blood sugar regulating hormone.
How is Diabetes Diagnosed?
A variety of methods, including Glucose Tolerance Tests, have been used to diagnose diabetes mellitus. The most reliable of these methods detects a blood glucose concentration greater than 140 milligrams per deciliter (normal is considered to be between 70-100 mg/dl) after an overnight fast.
How is Diabetes Treated?
After the isolation of insulin by Frederick Banting and Charles Best in 1921, incidence of death from ketoacidosis and diabetic coma decreased dramatically. The prolonged life span, however, revealed long-term complications such as kidney failure, eye disease, blindness, heart disease, gastrointestinal and nervous system disorders. Elevated blood glucose levels are believed to be at the root of these disorders. Thus, the objective of treatment for the diabetic is to restore blood glucose to normal levels.
In obese, non-insulin dependent individuals with diabetes, the treatment of choice is weight loss. If this plan is not successful, oral, blood sugar-reducing medicines are required. These hypoglycemic agents act primarily by stimulating the patient's pancreas to secrete additional insulin.
Is There a "Diabetic Diet"?
It is apparent that there are as many "diabetic diets" as there are persons with diabetes. Any dietary program is complicated by the fact that the same food may be eaten by different people and produce different responses in blood sugar levels. On-going research which investigates a food's ability to raise glucose levels (also known as glycemic index) indicates that the response is dependent upon the proportions of carbohydrate, protein and fat. For example, some individuals will spike a high blood glucose level when juice is ingested alone. However, the same juice may be better tolerated if taken with a meal which includes more protein and fat.

Rocker Jon Bon Jovi is part of a group interested in purchasing the Buffalo Bills, according to reports.
The team is expected to be put up for sale this fall after the death last month of 95-year-old owner Ralph Wilson.
"Jon remains passionate in his pursuit of an NFL franchise," Bon Jovi's publicist, Ken Sunshine, told the Toronto Sun on Thursday.
Bon Jovi had previously expressed interest in becoming an NFL owner. A potential bid could be in partnership with Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, which owns the NBA's Toronto Raptors and the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs.
Tim Leiweke, the company's president and CEO, has close ties to Bon Jovi, who does not appear to have the capital required to purchase an NFL team outright and would need other investors. Bon Jovi has an estimated worth of $290 million, far short of a possible $1 billion sale price for the Bills.
It apparently is not the first time that Bon Jovi has tried to buy a stake in an NFL franchise. Three years ago, there were reports that he attempted to purchase 15 percent of the Atlanta Falcons from owner Arthur Blank.
It remains uncertain whether an new ownership group would keep the Bills in Buffalo. Any sale of a team requires 75 percent approval from the league's owners.
Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs also is mentioned as having interest in the team. He is a Buffalo native.

(Reuters) - New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia's season may be over and his career could be in jeopardy after a setback in his rehab from a knee injury, manager Joe Girardi said on Friday.
Sabathia, who has been sidelined since May 11, had appeared poised to rejoin the Yankees rotation this month before his troublesome right knee swelled after a recent rehab start.
The left-hander, who was 3-4 with a 5.28 earned run average in eight starts before going on the disabled list with a degenerative cartilage problem in his right knee, is set to be examined by an orthopedic surgeon on July 14.
"That's always a possibility when you have a degenerative knee," Girardi told reporters before Friday's game against the Twins in Minnesota when asked about the prospects of Sabathia needing microfracture surgery.
"It's a surgery a lot of players don't want to hear they need to have. It's a pretty long rehab."
Asked whether Sabathia's 2014 season could be finished, Girardi said, "That's fair to say."
The manager said the pitching future of the one-time ace, who led them to a World Series title in 2009, could be in doubt.
"It's too early to predict that," said Girardi. "Whenever you have degenerative issues that cause surgery, there are always questions."
The loss of Sabathia may further motivate the Yankees to explore the trade market for starting pitching as they stood 3 1/2 games behind East Division co-leaders Toronto and Baltimore with the Major League Baseball trade deadline set for July 31.
Sabathia, who has a career record of 208-119, is signed to a five-year deal that ends in 2017 and is worth $122 million.

Don't know the celeb but Gimple was very forthcoming about the upcoming season without spoiling things much.
The idea I think is that he is being slowly healed by a spirit of community. I don't see how it serves to move the plot forward if he starts going nuts again.
I kinda thought that was the point of Rick's talk with Hershel... Rick was wondering if "you can come back" and Herschel tells him, 'your son came back, you came back'. I though that was them telling us that Rick was healed/healing from the tragedy of Lori's death, but I guess I can see how people read that as Rick still worried because he is still hallucinating things (camping lady).
That is an interesting take for sure, I interpreted that as more of a spiritual/ethical type comeback than a mental one. Like "how can you reconcile the horrible things you have had to do to survive with your personal sense of morality?" That was kind of the thrust of their conversation, they had both done bad things but Rick was still willing to reach out and help a stranger whereas she couldn't make that leap and had crossed over to pure survival mode. I hate to bring the comic into it, but my recollection is that crazy Rick was just a phase there too and he eventually stopped walking around with that telephone and got with the program again.
What if someone has a heart attack in the middle of the night?
Quote from: JediJman on October 17, 2013, 10:53 AMWhat if someone has a heart attack in the middle of the night? That's just plain reality right there... and no one wants to see that. The death has to be gruesome.

Meet local clay artist Nancy Jefferson and learn about the kiln firing technique known as Raku. Dating back to 16th century Japan, Raku involves taking an object out of the kiln while it is red hot, around 1800 degrees Fahrenheit, and placing it in a combustible material, then smothering the flames to increase carbon around the object. The end result is a crackled glaze with dark veins of carbon or black clay where no glaze is applied.

Slumping Rick Nash, Rangers on thin playoff ice
Rick Nash's stick isn't working.
The slumping New York Rangers forward might turn to something else with his team's season hanging in the balance.
Nash's playoff goalless streak has reached 15 games, including all 12 in the 2014 NHL playoffs.
"I don't think there is any easy way," said Nash, who missed an open net in Game 5 versus the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"But when guys are on these kinds of streaks, it always seems like it's a lucky bounce that goes in, off the shin pad, off your back, one that should not be a goal. I could really use one of those right now.
"It has been a big struggle. Chances are there, but no excuses. Have to get the job done."
The Rangers trail the Penguins 3-2 in the Eastern Conference best-of-seven semifinal.
With Game 6 looming at Madison Square Garden on Sunday night, the expectation was another emotional evening for Rangers forward Martin St. Louis, playing again three days after the death of his mother, France.
"Mother's Day today, this is a day that is special to me," St. Louis said following the morning skate. "To have my dad and my sister here, I think it helps the grieving process.
"I am really thankful for the quality people we have in here. And the people who reached out to me. I did not expect anything less. You want to be upbeat. It has to be a positive vibe, and there is.
"We're going to need (emotion). I know I think it was emotional the other day, and you have to play this game with emotion."
Said Sidney Crosby, when asked about Mother's Day and his mother Trina: "Like any hockey parent, she sacrificed a lot, and any parent in general. To give your kids an opportunity to do what you love to do, I feel pretty fortunate, but she is big reason for that. I like to think I am pretty appreciative usually, but especially on this day for sure."
The Penguins could have a different look on the blue line.
Already missing stalwart Brooks Orpik due to a knee injury, there was no sign of rookie defenceman Olli Maatta at the morning skate. Maatta has been steady in the post-season, averaging 17:54 of ice time and giving no sign he is a 19-year-old experiencing the NHL playoffs for the first time.
Penguins coach Dan Bylsma wouldn't provide clarity on Maatta's situation. If Maatta is unable to play, the Penguins will use Deryk Engelland, who has not played in a game since April 12.
Engelland said after the morning skate that he didn't know if he would be in the lineup.
Pittsburgh has to find a way to get its power play on track, as it has produced just one goal in 15 opportunities in the series, and none in the past three games.
The Penguins have won all four previous playoff series against the Rangers and New York never has come back to win when down 3-1 in a best-of-seven.
Even with those facts in consideration, the Pittsburgh players, who couldn't close the series in Game 5 on Friday, want nothing to do with a Game 7 at home on Tuesday.
"We have been successful in this building so hopefully nothing changes," forward James Neal said. "We can't wait to see what happens in a game. We have to leave everything out there. The second we start watching, the game gets ahead of you and we can't let that happen."

According to the theater's website, it was important that I arrived early at the Silver Moon Drive-In, but I probably overdid it.
The Silver Moon — the first drive-in in Lakeland and now its last — was a ghost town when I got there a little before 6 on a recent weeknight. I looked again at the advice at silvermoondrivein.com: "We strongly suggest you come well before showtime. This will allow you to avoid traffic and find a better parking spot."
The Silver Moon is among the few drive-ins in Florida, on a list that includes other survivors in Dade City, Ocala, Fort Lauderdale, Lake Worth, Ruskin and Tampa.
The first feature started at 7:30, but there were still plenty of good parking spaces available: all of them, to be exact. Strong wind gusts blew a sand storm across the giant vacant lot separating the two outdoor movie screens that still show first-run movies for a bargain $4 per-person admission.
I waited for other cars for at least an hour. Parked beneath the theater marquee on an industrial stretch of New Tampa Avenue (only a few miles off the County Line Road exit on Interstate 4), I munched quietly on the M&Ms I had bought at a nearby convenience store.
There's not much else to do in the neighborhood, once you've checked out the giant birthday-cake-on-a-stick at the nearby Publix warehouses, so keep that in mind, early birds. A line of cars formed about 45 minutes before my show.
I paid my $4 for the utterly drive-in worthy "Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters" and wheeled my car into a row equipped with old-fashioned portable speaker boxes, blaring out doo-wop hits of the 1950s.
A list of audience guidelines flashed on the screen: an admonition to turn off parking lights, brake lights, "disco lights, Bud Lights and any bright ideas that you might have." Also funny, in another way, was the warning that "chairs and blankets taking up a space will be asked to move."
I didn't tease any of the staffers about the twisted grammar at the concession stand, where only a few items cost more than the $4 admission. A dude alone at a drive-in is in no position to make fun of anyone else.
For company, I called a friend, who helped me mock the bad dialogue that competed against the occasional whistle of a passing freight train. Then it rained.
With all that, I still loved it in a hop-in-the-time-capsule way. A bargain trip for $4.
