Why the CEO of Hootsuite says having a mentor isn't the key to a successful career
Turns out, you might not actually need one.
How Mentoring Augments the Entrepreneurial Journey
Most successful business leaders had a mentor along the way. That relationship is a two-way street.

Lugen Family Office 2013 Speaker of the Year Award Winner – Tom Deans
Tom Deans Understands Family Business Relationships Lugen Family Office is proud to select Tom Deans as the LFO 2013 Speaker of the Year Award Winner! Congrats Tom and keep up the great work. Dr. Thomas William Deans is the author of the all-time best-selling family business book, Every Family's Business: 12 Common Sense Questions to Protect Your Wealth. He now speaks on the international lecture circuit full time. Having delivered more than 500 speeches, he has built a reputation as a thought leader on the subject of intergenerational wealth transfer. His lectures and books argue that family has emerged as the greatest economic driver of all time. But the question remains: How can wealth be transferred successfully without destroying the recipient and the wealth itself? It is a question for the times, as the greatest generation of wealth creators move toward death in record numbers. Deans explores the idea that communication is crucial to the success of that transfer, and indeed to the success of individuals, families and communities. The idea to write Willing Wisdom came from Tom watching his mother's parents die. One death – his grandfather's – was comparatively quick. His grandmother's was a long and slow ten-year decline. Despite the significant wealth his grandparents left for family and charity, it is the conversations they shared that Tom thought about the most many years later. In the end, when it came down to their last breaths, only the care provided by Tom's parents, not money or even the promise of money, could purchase the dignified death each experienced. Tom is not sure when he first became curious about why our culture has lost its inquisitiveness about death and dying, but he does know, having delivered his keynote speech on transitioning family wealth to tens of thousands of people around the world, that this trend is worsening. We live in a culture that is in awe of wealth and all that it can provide. We also live in a culture that finds it difficult to talk about and contemplate death. The two are inextricably connected. Tom starts conversations, but rarely does he finish them, leaving that to readers and their families, friends and trusted advisors. Willing Wisdom represents a return to the subject of his doctoral research, conducted in the US, Canada and the UK and first published in Charities and Government by Manchester University Press. Tom lives in a forest in the beautiful Hockley Valley in Ontario, Canada, with his wife, two children and five dogs. To Book Tom Deans as Your Keynote Speaker, Click here.

In Philly with my new Peace Corps buddy Pat. We stage tomorrow and meet all 68 trainees leaving for Thailand this weekend. The journey has started, although a bit convoluted. From Philly we take a bus to New York at 4:30 a.m. Sunday morning, board the plane at 12:30 in the afternoon, fly to Tokyo, and then to Thailand and arrive midnight Monday night. We take a bus for an hour north of Bangkok, settle into a hotel and start training Tuesday morning at 8! We're in the army now....
Training will be an intense 10 weeks and blogging may be infrequent, but will keep you posted. Feeling pretty good about this with a mix of excitement, anxiety, and a bit homesick...

To the alarm of many Americans, U.S. companies in the early 1980s rushed to move plants and supply lines overseas, betting that cheap labor could translate into profits and keep foreign competitors at bay. Now, that may be changing. At least some of the companies that went overseas are finding there`s no place like home when it comes to doing business.
Perhaps surprisingly, one reason companies are coming back is that low wages didn`t necessarily mean costs were less abroad, especially after a weaker dollar increased the price of most foreign products. For other companies, producing in distant lands caused headaches with quality, delivery or the ability of U.S.-based managers to direct operations.

Go over the elements of a good persuasive essay before setting them loose to write their own. When the essays are finished, go make essay writing fun through them and choose the best 10 (or more-your choice).Ask an independent judge (another English teacher or a writer or businessperson in your community) to choose the essay that makes the most persuasive argument. Copy that essay for all students and use it as a teaching tool in class, analyzing the structure of the essay, its thesis, argument, supporting ideas and conclusion. As a "prize" for the author of the winning essay, institute the change requested in the essay. Guess Who I Am: Narrative Essay.Elementary school students love to talk about themselves-it's their favorite subject. Have them "write what they know" while making a game out.
Teenagers naturally feel that school is unfair, teachers are mean and parents don't understand them. Here's their chance to essay writing with pictures persuade one person-their teacher-to change something.Tell the teens that they are going to write persuasive essays about something they'd like to change in the classroom environment. Give them examples of igcse english essay writing help things that are changeable, such as policies, classroom assignments, seating charts and novels studied, for example, and others that aren't, like homework requirements, grades and school rules, for instance. Ask them to write a persuasive essay, with the teacher as the audience, advocating for a specific change in the classroom.
Tell the students not to show their monsters to anyone else yet. Next, the student must write a descriptive essay about the monster, going into enough detail that when another student reads it, she can recreate the monster on her own. Tell students to describe everything carefully, such as size, color, writing assignment for high school students number of arms and legs, and the expression on the monster's mouth. To practice organization, have students describe the monster from top to bottom.Now comes the fun part-pass the essays around randomly to the other students in the room. Each student will have one essay (not his own a piece of blank.5-by-11-inch paper, and colored crayons or markers. The students are to read the essays and recreate the monsters as described. Once the students are finished, they should find the original writer of the essay, compare monster drawings and see how well they did-both describing the monster and recreating.Display the work on a bulletin board or wall, placing the essay on top and both the original and recreated monster drawings below. Choose an outside judge or have students judge which monster drawings are the most similar, presumably because the essay written contains the best detail. Award a prize, such as a free homework pass or a monster pencil and eraser. Persuade Me: Persuasive Essay.
Classroom, by Deanne Lachner, a standard essay contains five paragraphs: an introduction, three supporting paragraphs and a conclusion. Students learn this format as early as elementary school and, with the heavy reliance on standardized testing, they are increasingly taught only this format for writing.Creativity can quickly become stifled by formulaic writing. Bring some fun back into writing by showing your students that essays can vary from the standard format, contain interesting introductions and details that delight readers, and end up being fun-rather than boring-to write. The key to writing assignment dropping the bomb reigniting your students' interest in the essay is to introduce essay-writing games.Draw My Monster: Descriptive Essay, perfect for middle school writers, the "Draw My Monster" game teaches kids the value of details in their descriptive essays. First, have each student draw a monster on a sheet.5-by-11-inch paper. The monster should be drawn in color with the silly eyes, nose, mouth, ears, arms and legs of the student's choice.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
he petrol was smooth and refined, and power build up was gradual and sweet.
However, when I drove the diesel immediately thereafter (on a Saturday morning with very sparse traffic conditions), the moment I reached the point of 2000 RPM (when the turbo kicked in, if at all) the car lunged forward and lo and behold! I was breathing down the neck of the car in front of me! With the net result that the turbo power was well nigh impossible to use in normal city traffic. On the highways, yes, the diesel would be optimally used, since there is ample open road to free up the turbo and use the torque.
The overwhelming feeling I got was that in normal every day city usage, where revving up to 2000RPM on a consistent basis is difficult for any sustained length of time, the diesel does not feel special at all (in terms of low end driveability). On the other hand, the petrols refined and linear power delivery felt much more suitable to me.
Or maybe its just the petrol head in me who liked the high revving smooth K12

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
Taller gear ratios improve highway fuel efficiency and improve cruising speeds considerably.
Depends also on the engine characteristics : DOHC valvetrain design + lighter flywheel = lesser low end torque as compared to an SOHC with a heavier flywheel.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
What is happening today is that all cars costing less than 10L are being tuned to ensure optimum fuel efficiency.Say what you want people but petrolheads like us are miniscule in number.The majority of average car buyer are only interested in "average kya hai".
This is economics people.Car manufacturers are responding to what sells in India.A lot of people have praised the Santro and frankly it's a much better car but then a lot of people preferred the Wagon R to it as it offered slighly better FE.The VW 1.4 and 1.2 TSI engines are amazing but they may never come here simply because it would not make economic sense.This is because people compare the FE of a much heavier VW to a Korean or Japanese tinbox.The only thing that most car buyers want is fuel efficiency.They are not bothered about performance,build quality,comfort or safety just "Fuel Efficiency".
The point I am trying to make is manufacturers give customers what they want.We are only after "Average Kya Hai".What we sow,we reap.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
And I thought I Didn't know how to drive!
Its been only a couple of years that I have been driving [well, negligible amounts in the first year. I have probably driven about 1500km in total in the past two years]. I had learnt driving in a LPG fitted esteem which was not worthy of being called a car. Since then I have been sharping my skills behind the wheel of my fathers swift VDi. The only petrol car I had driven was a friends esteem [not the above mentioned one] which had an extremely sensitive clutch but was otherwise fine. I used to avoid driving that car as I would often stall it [Although my inexperience did play its part here, it wasn't all me. Most of my friends with significant amounts of experience would stall it too]. Recently he replaced the car with a Vento TDi and an Alto K10. The first time a got behind the wheel of the K10, I was a bit surprised with excessively stiff accelerator paddle. But what really surprised me was the low end response. I am used to shifting at 2000 [+/-] rpms in my fathers car. But in the K10, at those rpms the car almost feels as if fuel supply to the engine has been cut off. Suppose you slow down to about 15km/hr to cross a bad patch of road, if you try to pull away from second, there is absolutely zero response unless you are hammering the accelerator! Downshifting to first too causes problems because the car would knock. It was almost like I was having to learn how to drive all over again!

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
The Vista65 that i have also has a nice punchy engine. Most times I can do speedbreakers even in 2nd or 3rd gears without breaking a sweat.
I have seen the torque/bhp map of this engine and it peaks at about 2400 rpm. But is available around 1200. In the city I can easily keep up with cars with better PTW ratio and still get a good FE (13-14 kmpl with AC). Where I really feel the pinch is above 80 kmph on highways where I have to really work the engine to get speed up. But in the city, I believe this is one of the rare engines of today which have a good low end torque.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
The Fire 1.2 engine that powers the Vista and Punto has adequate amount of low end torque.
Once into 3rd gear it pulls neatly from 15kph to 60kph without any strain. In moderate traffic i don't need to change the gear at all, unless i encounter a red signal and i drive it almost like an automatic.
In comparision the Santro's 3rd gear too pulls neatly from 15kph but needs to be upshifted once you cross 45kph or else the engine sounds coarse. The only sore point with the Chevy is the 2nd gear which is too short but is very useful in tackling speed humps.
Thats from my usage of first gen and eRLX versions of Santro for 10 years and Beat for past 10 months.
I guess the problem of poor low end torque is more prevalent among the 3 cylinder engines.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
"For the same state of tune a higher displacement engine will have more low end torque compared to a smaller displacement engine."
In your example, both Santro and the i10 have the same engine, except that the i10 engine is tuned for slightly higher power 69 vs 63 and better torque 10.1/4500 vs 9.8/3000.
When you tune for better performance the torque curve peaks, that is the lower powered tuning gives a flatter torque, higher power engine gives a peaked torque curve, reducing torque at lower end.
From the figures you can see that for i10 the peak torque is at a much higher RPM, hence there will be less torque at say 2000 RPM compared to the Santro.

Forget small cars, i was overhearing a funny conversation between two TN government bus drivers. They were loathing the turbo charged buses because these buses dont climb the steep speedbreaker (found in Coimbatore bus stand, which only L/HCVs can pass without scraping) from standstill.
The NA buses seems to do it easily.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
Also, a heavy flywheel means, you can sustain the low momentum, like the older Bullets. In fact, its bad for starting from standstill.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
Another reason was to facilitate starting, as older cars rarely (unless tuned perfectly) started in what we call 1/2 self, so that the momentum built up by the starter motor could start the engine easier.

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
I had planned for a Figo Petrol in April this year. Test drive was very unsatisfactory & i had to extend my budget to Figo Diesel.
The low end response & driveaability of Petrol Figo was not as good as M800 (2005 YM, which i was using at that time)

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
Great thread. The Palio 1.2 also suffered from poor low end torque, but that just provided an excuse to rev it! It can get frustrating in tight traffic where you need to get through a gap though. The Polo 1.6 is also awfully sedate before 2-2.5k rpms.
Interesting to read about the engine design/regulatory factors that have led to this. What actually determines how much power and torque an engine produces, and at what point in the rev range it is produced?

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
I do not own one but have driven my bro's ride and man NANO is fun to drive. Cannot compare it with Santro's experience but NANO is definately a city car and works in the b2b traffic with its zippy nature.
Any owner comments here on the NANO ?

Re: What happened to low end torque of today's small cars?
By standstill means if you are saying that the engine is not running, then what you say is correct. But if the engine is running, then vehicle having heavier flywheel will be able to move the mass of the vehicle better, since smaller or lighter flywheel have to spin (or accelarate) to a higher rpm to produce the same torque. Here we should be comparing vehicles of same weight, though

"EPA Declares Mothers' Breath Toxic."
By Viv Forbes;Chairman; Carbon Sense Coalition.
The Carbon Sense Coalition today accused the Australian and US governments of ignoring real pollution problems while conducting a vendetta against an innocent bystander, carbon dioxide.
The Chairman of "Carbon Sense" Mr Viv Forbes, said it was a sick joke that the Australian EPA calls carbon dioxide, the gas of life, a pollutant, while the US EPA has declared the same harmless gas a health hazard.
"The earth's atmosphere contains 386 ppm of CO2, whereas human exhalation contains 40,000 ppm, over 100 times as much. These asinine laws have thus effectively decreed that a mother's warm breath on her baby's face is a toxin.
"And still these imbeciles are not laughed out of court.
"Meanwhile, Asia gasps in a brown cloud of real pollution like the smogs that smothered London and Pittsburgh in the 1950's.
"The Asian smog is not caused by carbon dioxide.
"It comes from dirty combustion – uncontrolled peat and forest fires in Indonesia, open air cremations and cow dung cooking in India, smoky mosquito repelling fires in SE Asia, rubbish dump fires, dust and ash from dirty old boilers and plants, and poor people everywhere scrounging dung, sticks, cardboard, coal, rags, waste oil and anything that burns for cooking and heating.
"The London smog was cleared away with "coal by wire" – clean silent electric heating and lighting from distant steam generators.
"Anyone concerned about Asian air pollution would be encouraging the construction of clean reliable modern power stations to replace a myriad of dirty open fires and old boilers.
"Instead, fools try to ration and tax a life-supporting, non-polluting, invisible, will-o-the-wisp like carbon dioxide – fiddling while Asia burns.
"Maybe the people promoting the war on carbon dioxide should set a good example and cease exhaling".
Viv Forbes is Chairman of the Carbon Sense Coalition which opposes waste of resources, opposes pollution, and promotes the rational and sustainable use of carbon energy and carbon food.
For more information on Asian smog see this.
Go here for more information on carbon dioxide, climate and life see:
Editors note:
This is a particularly dangerous time for climate realists and for freedom in general. Most of the arguments supporting the cause of the climate alarmists have been discredited, and climategate has revealed deep flaws and deliberate malpractice in the scientific methods employed in arriving at those conclusions. There is no evidence whatsoever that government action will modify the climate in any way, nor is there likely to be.
While there may be some politicians who genuinely believe that reducing the miniscule proportion of CO2 produced here, of the miniscule proportion produced by man worldwide, of the miniscule proportion of CO2 in the atmosphere, will result in modifying the worlds cyclic changes in climate, these people are delusional.
Despite this Rudd and his cronies both here and abroad have stepped up their efforts to enact legislation, which has the strong appearance of wealth redistribution and increased state interference about it before their cause is completely destroyed.
This month is crucial. Rudd will reintroduce his deeply flawed and dangerous legislation soon. The alarmists see this as their last chance to enslave us all to their doomsday religion. Once this legislation is on the books, it will be very difficult to remove it.


text: Here's the skinny... I'm looking for many a few parts to fix up some of my consoles... the problem is that almost every one of them aren't simply available on Amazon or anywhere. And since the last time I tried to trust shoptemp left me to deal wiht a shop that refused to communicate me for nearly two months while I waited to see if it would even ship at all or if they just stole my money, I'm asking you, fellow tempers, directly, for where I can go. Ideally, I would want to shop from a place that is in the USA or at least close enough to be that ridiculous overseas wait. But at this point, I'd even settle for one that is at least on this side of the ocean and has a decent rating on resellerratings.com. Just to give an insight of what I'm looking for, this is what my current 'to-do' parts list looks like: Shoulder triggers for the GBA SP. nothing I can do with mine makes these work anymore, and it's kinda required for the games. UMD drive for a PSP 2000. Even when I was able to borrow one to test, the PSP 2000 I managed to fix up won't even attempt to spin a disc anymore. I'm wondering if it's the switch that is the issue, or the UMD drive itself. If I can get both, better. Something that I can use to fix/restore the flash memory on this 20gig PS3. I don't know where else to turn, so not sure where to go.

Sounds like a fun week! Wow... Sadie would be about 10 by now... right? Essh... how time flies. Way to go Dad! That makes me really excited!!! I am really happy to hear about your progress! I know that has been something that had been bugging you for a long time, and it makes me happy to know that your health is getting better! Gotta love it!!! What do you mean Mom... not too shabby? You are probably doing pretty good! :)
Well... life here on the east end of town is going great! We are finding some really good people to teach. We are working hard to find families that are ready to receive the restored Gospel. We did divisions this week and I went out to Presidente Franco with Elder Beatty, a missionary that is in his 2nd transfer here in Paraguay. Wow... he speaks super well and teaches pretty well! We had a really good time together and I learned a lot. We had some good discussions about gospel principles and doctrine, motivations and the blessings of keeping the commandments. It really surprises me still all the stuff I learn from the new Elders getting here... they are so prepared! It really is true that every coming generation of youth is getting better and better. It was fun to talk to him because he also knows Jake Watson, he ran track with him at UVU. We had an investigator, Ismael, come to church these past two weeks, and we are working pretty hard with him. He is a father of two kids and is a mechanic. He really thinks a lot about everything we have taught and contemplates it. We are happy to see his progress. All in all, I love being a missionary! Even in the hard times, the blessings of the Lord are amazing. :)
Sorry for the short letter this week... we are running out to Monday Falls (Saltos de Monday) later today and have to get everything ready. I love you all so much! Say hi to everyone for me!
Elder Watson

She's so lucky...
I didn't give it to her good. Kiersten had a near brush with death yesterday. The kids' wanted me to set up the tent outside, but is not a job I can manage when they are playing around me while I do it. I say playing around me, but you all know I mean messing with the tent as I am working on it. :) Anyhow, I came back inside to find a bouquet of flowers by the front door- inside. I knew immediately that Kiersten had heard the doorbell and, while I was outside, opened it herself and received the delivery. All three kids' were right there in the living room and could have been taken or hurt or...... the imagination and reality of all that could have happened left me speechless. I didn't know what to do to punish her. I have since put a child proof door handle thing on and she is no longer able to get the mail for me. Needless to say the flowers didn't brighten my day as they were intended to!

Oh, I would have been all nerves too. I unfortunately have two children with no apparent sense of "stranger danger" either. Hope you are hanging in there! I miss seeing you (we haven't gotten to the park in the last couple weeks)!

Oh, how I would have freaked out as well. My children don't understand stranger danger too well either especially if it is someone at the door. I am not sure how I would punish them either, but I do keep the screen door latched as often as possible to keep the little people in. They have yet to figure out where the lock is so we are still safe there. Hopefully I will see you this week. I am glad to be home as it was roasting in Texas. Later sweet friend!

The Google-sponsored $30 million (£21 million, AU$37 million) bounty for reaching the moon went unclaimed when the original competition expired on March 31 after its initial 2014 deadline had been extended several times.

You can also just choose to use voice instead of video if you don't want others to see you for some reason.

In an official statement, the iPhone maker confirmed the appointment, saying John Giannandrea will head Apple's machine learning and AI strategy and would report directly to Apple's chief executive Tim Cook .

Saturday ... on a beautiful warm evening ... we were joined by 25 friends, family and our wedding party to celebrate our 35th Anniversary ... a month early.
We spent an enJOYable evening at Fiorano's on the Lake of the Commons. Since our dream has always been to go to Italy this restaurant had all the atmosphere we were looking for. The food and wait staff were wonderful and they made us feel comfortable -- "at home" -- since we used a majority of their restaurant for four hours.
It was fun getting everyone together and a great time to reconnect with those we haven't seen in years. Each person in this picture represents someone special who has had an impact on our marriage and in our lives. God has truly blessed us and we felt so honored to have them celebrate with us.
More pictures to follow ....

As a result of the 4800's being so well priced Nvidia is now scared. The have announced that they will lower the GTX's to start off at $399 while the 4870 will still be $349. This is great because now we can start to see some price pressure against the two company's. I am also really hoping that we will not see anymore $500-$600 dollar cards, no-one can afford the except for Maxishine.

Hockey Photo of the Day
This was a very happy night for us Thrashers fans. On Sunday, January 11 2009, at a charity casino night, the Atlanta Thrashers FINALLY named Ilya Kovalchuk as their captain. We went 1/2 a season with no captain so it was a long time coming. Kovy's play really turned around after that. He is a fantastic captain.

Tonight I am a bit disappointed. I have been waiting and waiting for Amelia's bedding to be finished. I was hoping it was going to be done and installed by today. Well, that didn't happen. Michelle has the bumpers, drapes, and skirt done, but she has a bunch of other pieces not done. She called me today and told me she would bring the finished stuff tonight or could bring it all tomorrow morning. I just told her to bring it all in the morning. But not I am wishing I would have told her to bring me what was done... because now it is snowing. Everyone from here FREAKS out when there is a bit of snow so I am not holding my breathe. I am sure schools will close tomorrow and she won't want to get out on the roads. I just have to remember that the bedding will be worth the wait! Michelle is so talented and I am glad she isn't rushing it. I know it is a big job.... I am human and want it now! :)
Well in happier news... I got Amelia's painting tonight! It is just perfect! I can't wait to see it with the bedding. Her room is going to be so pretty. I can't wait to see it all together! My good friend, Bridgette, did the painting. She is my belly dance teacher and we became fast friends. She is so talented... I am impressed.
I love that Bridgette included the Bible Verse that we used at Amelia's baby shower.
I didn't take my weekly picture today so I will post that this week. I am praying that her bedding comes tomorrow and I will take tons of pictures so beware! Also we head back to the doctors on Tuesday. We have an ultrasound to see how big Amelia is. If she is too big and my pelvic bone hasn't move we will be scheduling a c-section the week of the 17th I am sure. Crazy to think this is my last week of being pregnant with Amelia. I am so looking forward to the ultrasound... I wonder how big and what she looks like! I am even more excited to find out when our princess will arrive!!

Erbakan, said:
4-person family for a month and a''tea-bagel eats only the minimum wage is not enough. Our nation is losing now in the hands of the wheel. However, very poor, those who pay a bagel fukaraya, faizciye continues to pay $ 1 billion every week. 47.5 billion pounds in 2011 from the budget the money will go to interest only. If you paid interest if paid in a single nation, citizens are hungry and do not open. Those tea, bagels account before coming to power, but now seems to have forgotten that our nation has not forgotten accounts. Coming to power by vote of the poor still account Bagels bagel account will go from power.''
Erbakan,''the two languages,''and''autonomy''in the discussions made the statement following reviews:
Turks and Kurds are brothers'', there is no problem between them, has been this way throughout history. Our conviction because we would not be racial discrimination. We tried for a thousand years, the Turks and the Kurds in this country, we have for this country you feel. Meat nail integral, Kürtsüz Turkish-Kurdish-Türksüz happens. They wanted to divide our country racist imperialism games. Turkey understands harple yenemeyeceklerini external forces, our nation is part of a plan to divide and collisions with each other. This is to be conscious of the games we have to protect and brotherhood. Otherwise, we continued into the hands of racist imperialists. Games against the nation experienced in the dark. As with common sense to have it before that then it will break the insidious plans.''

text: Several weeks ago I attended a workshop on writing history given in Burns by Professor Richard Etulain who has written or edited 40 books, mostly on the American West. He's an excellent presenter and writer. His father was Basque, and he grew up on a sheep ranch in Washington. He has a good piece on the Basques on the online Oregon Encyclopedia at www.oregonencyclopedia.org/entry/view/basques/ as well as articles on Ernest Haycox, an Oregon western writer and on whom he did his PhD dissertation, and Edward Baker, a man who figured in the politics of Oregon. He was a friend of Wallace Stegner, who I'm sorry to say, I haven't read so I bought Etulain's book "Stegner: Conversations on History and Literature". If you are interested in the American West, look for Etulain's books.

Worm eats Cedar Rapids man's retina
Source: The Gazette — John Matthews loves to hunt turkeys and travel to foreign places like Mexico. During one of those adventures, something crawled inside his body.
"It's so small, you couldn't even see it, feel it,†Matthews said.
When two dark spots appeared in his vision and his eyesight became a little hazy, he headed to the doctor.
"It was kind of like looking through a muddy lens,†he said.
Doctors struggled to diagnose what was wrong with John's left eye. Then, Dr. James Folk at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics found the problem.
"Just by luck, the first picture we looked at, we saw the worm, right in the middle of the retina,†Folk said.
A microscopic worm was swimming around inside John's eye.
"It actually lives underneath the retina of the eye and crawls around and eats the retina,†Folk said. "The worm goes into the gut, digests in the gut, and actually doesn't crawl through the blood vessels, but crawls through the tissue all the way to the eyes and the brain.â€
There are only about fifteen known cases like this in the world.
Matthews still remembers that day back in January when he got the news. He said, "I was never freaked out by it when they said, 'You've got a worm in your eye.' I was like, 'Get it out. What do we do now?'â€
Soon after making the diagnosis, Dr. Folk armed himself with a laser and put the worm in the cross-hairs.
John was awake the whole time and said he was thinking, "Hurry up and kill the thing. Good luck shootin', doc…I saw something wiggling and I asked if the worm was wiggling. The doc said, 'Yes.' I said, 'I can see it.'â€
Dr. Folk said, "When you hit it with the laser, it got very upset. As upset as a worm can get, I suppose…The thing was just thrashing around violently. It would be like one of those titan movies or something.â€
The worm is dead. It will decompose over time. Now, John must do computer exercises to strengthen his eye. His vision has improved, but may never return to normal.
"His sharp-shooting days are over,†Folk said.
For the rest of his life, John will be on a different kind of hunting expedition to see if any doctor can restore his eyesight.
Dr. DeAnn Fitzgerald has worked with John throughout this entire process and continues to see him about twice a month.
Although this condition is rare, Dr. Folk says, in one day, an adult raccoon can shed 60 million eggs that contain these kinds of worms. Folk says Matthews could have somehow ingested raccoon dander. However, John will probably never know exactly how or when the worm got inside him.

High-yielding rice varieties preferred by farmers are often classified as "susceptible" or "highly susceptible" to blast, adding costs ranging from $4.75 to $20.87 per acre. Host resistance is one of the most effective means of control, but there is a critical need for efficient strategies to move resistance genes into elite rice varieties while maintaining yield and quality. In contrast for the newly-emerged wheat blast disease in South America (S.A.) caused by the M. oryzae Triticum pathotype, few resistance genes have been identified in wheat and fungicide treatments are unreliable. It is paramount to prepare for incursion and prevent establishment of the S.A. fungus on U.S. wheat. It is also essential to determine the potential for blast to emerge and establish in the U.S. wheat crop from native strains of the Lolium pathotype, which currently cause gray leaf spot disease on turf grasses. Turf grass strains infect wheat grown under greenhouse conditions and a native Lolium strain was isolated from a single severely-blasted wheat head in Kentucky in 2011. Therefore, wheat blast could establish in the U.S. by introduction of aggressive strains endemic to S.A., or by emergence of a native Lolium strain shifting to become an aggressive wheat pathogen in the field. The major premise for this proposal is that various diseases caused by host-differentiated M. oryzae populations can be viewed as a single system for developing novel control strategies, and that extensive research into disease on one host can aid in control on others. For example, pathogenicity factors and avirulence (Avr) effectors have been extensively characterized from rice pathogens, and 18 blast resistance genes have been cloned from rice. Our goal is to apply this knowledge to develop new genetic tools for controlling rice blast and preventing wheat blast in the U.S. Specific objectives are to: (1) enhance blast resistance in elite US rice varieties; (2) develop a novel strategy using host-induced gene silencing (HIGS) for controlling blast; (3) control wheat blast through the understanding of wheat blast genetics and genomics, pathology, ecology and epidemiology; (4) incorporate blast resistance into wheat; (5) develop and validate forecasting models for rice and wheat blast; (6) assess consumer attitudes and economics of cisgenic blast-resistant rice; (7) disseminate results through educational resources and programs for stakeholders; and (8) attract a new generation of plant pathologists to work on plant biosecurity. Outputs from this project will include efficient cisgenic strategies for incorporating resistance genes into high-yielding U.S. varieties, and pathogen population analysis to inform breeders' resistance gene choices. Understanding wheat blast field biology together with effective diagnostics, workshops and training resources will underpin a first-responder network for preventing establishment of wheat blast in the U.S. Deploying forecasting models and assessing economic and social impacts of new technologies will benefit both rice and wheat production.

Unfortunately, you've told us NOTHING about your computer, but is this a USB keyboard or PS2? IF USB, have you tried a PS2 keyboard? If PS2, have you tried USB?
If you're using Windows 2000 or later:
If you haven't already, please run a full system scan with a good antispyware program such as either of the free one's below:
AVG Antispyware 7.5 Tool
SUPERAntispyware Removal Tool
Hope this helps.
Not sure what happened but occasionally my O key will just type by random. Im sure its not the keyboard since i tested another keyboard and it was doing the same. Can anyone help me? It gets really frustrating...
