FISHERS, Ind. -- Dozens of vehicles crashed Tuesday on a snow-slickened Interstate Highway 69 in central Indiana, killing at least two people, police said.
The crash happened Tuesday morning as more than 3 inches of snow fell in about three hours in the Indianapolis area. I-69 is an expressway on the northeast side of Indianapolis heading to Ft. Wayne.
One other death was unconfirmed from the I-69 crash and some people suffered serious injuries, state police Sgt. Anthony Emery said. Some 25 to 30 vehicles, including several semi tractor trailers and a fire truck, were involved in the chain-reaction crash.

On a small budget? There are many other places where you can get a wedding dress besides ordering from expensive bridal salons. Below are a few ideas for the discriminating, yet frugal, bride.
Bridal Warehouses: These facilities offer dresses that you can purchase off-the-rack for prices often much cheaper than bridal salons. Many of these places carry designer gowns that were either bridal shop samples or overstocks.
The advantage to these stores is that there is no ordering, no waiting and no worrying about whether your dress will come in on time. David's Bridal has been servicing brides since 1950 and has over 100 locations nationwide.
Mail Order Discounters: You can save 20-30% off the retail price of most major designer gowns. All you need is the name of the designer, the style number of the dress and your measurements. The dress is then mailed to your home. Then, alternations and pressing are usually required. ShopforBridal.com has been satisfying customers for more than 10 years and discounts wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses up to 25% off retail.. with free shipping.
Consignment Shops: Although selection is limited, it is possible to find the deal of a lifetime here.
Sample Sales: Many salons have annual or semi-annual events where they sell their samples that have recently been expired. While probably not as cheap as the preceding two choices, you can still save a ton of money.
Seamstress or Tailor: He or she will be able to create a dress completely designed for you. While this isn't always a cheaper option, it is definitely something to look into, especially if your gown will come from a fairly simple pattern. Before deciding on your seamstress, check references!
Borrow: If you don't mind not owning your own dress, you can always borrow it from someone. Before doing this however, check and see what their policy is on making alterations to fit your body frame.
Before grabbing a dress that is two sizes too big just because it's a good bargain, don't forget to figure in the cost of alterations. These can be very expensive so purchase wisely! Always check your dress for stains, rips or missing beadwork and bring someone with you so they can carefully examine the back of your dress for you. They might notice an imperfection that you are missing.

text: My 3 favorite customizations to Sitefinity's Rich Text Editor by User Not Found Sep 23, 2011 A few months ago Grisha (aka Greg) blogged about customizing Sitefinity's Rich Text WYSIWYG editor (RadEditor). Telerik sells RadEditor as a stand-alone product and it has a ton of features that can be fully utilized in Sitefinity. I'm notoriously picky about my content editing environment (just ask the Sitefinity team) and I've been working a lot inside Sitefinity's Rich Text editor. Below are 3 customizations that I personally consider a must-have for my own authoring environment. #1 – Move the FormatBlock outside the 'More Features' section By default Sitefinity's FormatBlock dropdown is only available by clicking the "More Formatting Options". This is a dropdown I use constantly. Which meant clicking "More Formatting Options" became my default experience. To save myself a click I moved this dropdown to the default section. Update: This is being implemented out-of-the-box in Sitefinity 4.2 SP1. So you won't need to do this yourself. However, it's worth knowing that RadEditor's toolbar is under your control. If you don't like it, modify it. #2 – Display empty (unnecessary) tags The Sitefinity team has tried very very hard to make our Rich Text editor bullet-proof and predictable. This means zero embedded styling, malformed HTML or unnecessary HTML. To that end, we welcome ANY reproducible examples that produce bad HTML. However, despite our best attempts I still occasionally get strangeness. In the case of empty tags (<ul> </ul>) this HTML has no visible impact on the content. It's only while looking at the HTML that I realize I have 15 empty HTML blocks that serve no purpose. To combat this I applied the following min-height style to RadEditor: /* This ensures we'll see empty tags in RadEditor */ h1, h2, h3, h4, div, p, ul, ol, pre, blockquote { min-height: 1em; } I've also heard other customers apply subtle borders to highlight the boundaries of these HTML elements. It's completely up to you. The takeaway here is that you can apply special styles to RadEditor that don't get applied to your actual web site. Very handy! #3 – Modify the styling to match the actual web site It's a dirty secret that WYSIWYG editors often aren't WYSIWYG. In fact, once the author clicks Publish, it's typical for all the content to get reformatted and change when the real web site styling gets applied to it. The Rich Text editing environment typically uses very different styling than the actual web site. It's very difficult to get a 1 to 1 editing experience (where WYS is WYG), but we can get a lot closer by applying some special styling to Sitefinity's Rich Text editor. Here is my own example: This styling is much closer to how the content will look when it's published. In fact, when I switch into full screen mode, it feels like Sitefinity is no longer involved. How did I do all of this? Everything you see above was accomplished with 2 files and 1 configuration setting. radeditor.css – This file contains the CSS styling that I want to apply to RadEditor. ToolsFile.xml – This file contains the configuration settings for RadEditor. I posted the source-code to GitHub: The last step is to tell Sitefinity about this new configuration file. Where to go from here? This is just the beginning of what can be done with RadEditor. Feel free to explore adding a dropdown for custom styles or adding new tools. All of the details can be found in the RadEditor documentation. Email to a friend Show oldest on top Show newest on top 10 comments Leave a comment Jochem Sep 26, 2011 Hey Gabe, Awesome post and you're completely right, this is exactly what makes the RadEditor so powerfull. Just to point out one obvious thing: You have to move the "ToggleScreenMode" toolname inside the top toolbar to make it available without switching to 'More formatting options'. And just to point out... On Grisha's blog post he recommends moving the Radeditor.css file inside the global folder of your theme so it is assured that styles are applied throughout the entire site. I recommend using Gabe's approach to NOT put the Radeditor.css inside the global folder. This is because as you can see in Gabe's example where he uses a font declaration on the body tag. If put inside the global folder, this class will also be applied to Sitefinity BE in general when editing pages. 'Georgia' in itself isn't a bad font but you might get unexpected page-editing screens when applying more exotic combinations of web-fonts, sizes and colors. Grisha 'Greg' Karanikolov Sep 28, 2011 I agree, Jochem, however I do believe what Gabe describes here is different than what I address in my post. Here Gabe creates a style sheet that should style the contents of the canvas of the RadEditor. It isn't required anywhere else except for the RadEditor. In my post I show how you can force users to use your custom CSS classes . I connect the ApplyClass dropdown to a CSS file that contains a set of custom CSS rules, which you could apply to different HTML elements. If these CSS rules are not put in the Global folder, after applying them through the RadEditor they would take effect only inside the RadEditor; However on the pages themselves, as they do not reference this stylesheet (it's not loaded automatically for all pages), the new formatting will be disregarded. See, the difference is that Gabe's CSS styles the whole canvas; it contains rules for <h1>, body, <a> elements, and so on. My CSS only contains very specific custom classes like .bold , .redText, etc, which should be used respectively if you want to apply these effects to some content. They should not affect any other content in an unexpected way (normally you would put an element in a .bold class only if it should be bold, right?). Hope this clears it a bit! Greg Mike Badgley Sep 29, 2011 Gabe - any ideas on how this sort of thing can be applied to the "HTML" edit mode? The default font is Tahoma, which is not an idea font to be using for text editing. Is there a way I can change this to something else - ideally courier or some other monospace font? Nancy May 17, 2012 I am working in Sitefinity 5 and I do not have an Extensions directory in my project. The standard editor configuraiton lists Telerik.Sitefinity.Resources.Themes.StandardToolsFile.xml for the file. How can I access that file to grab it and use it as a starter point for making my own? Where is the file actually located? Nancy May 17, 2012 I figured out how to do this in Sitefinity 5. Rather than editing it at the file system level, you can edit this XML in the admin interface. The settings can be found under Administration > Basic Settings > Text Editor. I just though I'd share this in case anyone else runs into the same situation. cheapcarhireguide Jan 24, 2013 We were able to provide you with some of the facts above but there is still plenty more to write about in subsequent articles.

Gel Nail Polish Tutorial
Gel nail polish is my current obsession. Obviously I'm a big fan of nail art but I have also been really short on time lately so I've been lax on painting my nails. I hate having to remove or repaint when my polish chips so I decided to give gel polish a try.
Gel polish is basically what it sounds like, a hybrid between regular nail polish and full gel nail systems. Systems like shellac and gelish are the same thing. The point is that they last for much longer than regular polish, most of them advertise 14 days with no chipping or scratching etc with the idea being that you don't need to remove them until the nails grow out.
The lovely Celina bought me a gel lamp for Christmas so I ordered some polishes from GlazeMe.com.au.
So what is the process?
First you need to gather all of your materials and prep your nails.
You need:
Shape your nails using a file and then use a buffer to smooth out any ridges or unevenness. My nails are quite uneven after a few of them snapped 🙁
Clean the nails with rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer so it will create a good surface for the gel to adhere to.
Paint a thin base coat on to the nails. I find it easier to do one hand at a time but it will also depend on the size of your gel lamp.
The gel polish won't actually dry as soon it's cured in the lamp so if you go over the edges you can just wipe it off. Make sure to clean off any gel which is on your skin or cuticles because it will make the gel more likely to flake later.
Cure under the lamp for the amount of time recommended on your bottle. Keep in mind that different lamps are different wattages so the curing time will differ depending on that too.
Once the base is cured do 1-2 coats of the colour. Make sure that you apply polishes to the tips of your nails as well, when the gel cures it shrinks slightly so if you don't tip them they might show through.
Do fairly thin coats. Because the gel doesn't dry until it's cured, if you do thick coats it might drip into odd shapes before you get a chance to cure it.
I did a coat of pink plus a coat of glitter flake over the top and cured between each coat.
Next apply the top coat and cure.
Gel polish is dry as soon as it's cured so don't worry about bumping it afterwards. It will have a sticky film over it but it will be dry.
Wipe the nails down with some more hand sanitizer or rubbing alcohol and they will shine up nicely!
That's it! While it does take a little while to do, there's no annoying drying time so I actually found it much quicker than doing my nails normally. I was very happy with the quality of the polishes and prices from the glazeme website as well so I will be ordering some more colours soon!
In my experience the polish did last around 2 weeks but I tend to get a bit bored with my polish after a week so I tended just to peel it off and start again (bad! Don't peel your polish off, it's bad for you!).
Anyway it's a big thumbs up from me to gel polish, it's very convenient when I'm feeling rushed and lazy. Now I need to get myself some actual gels to start experimenting with extensions again.
My next experiments though, are going to be whether I can sandwich regular polish between gel top and bottom coats and have the same long lasting wear. I'll let you all know how it turns out.
Hope that was helpful, let me know how it goes!

Sit back and remember collectibles that seemed to serve as the embodiment of wholesome American values (Barbie, the Teddy Bear and Raggedy Ann and Andy).
Walk through time and look at the staples of our culture, from the 1940's (the Slinky) and the 1950's (the Hula Hoop) to the 1960s (the Superball) and 1970's (the Rubik's Cube and the Pet Rock).
Look back and remember how the Lava Lamp made us feel cool and relaxed while the Cabbage Patch Doll craze had housewives engaged in fist fights at local toy stores.
Collectibles allow us to discover our commonality as some of us remember "yeah, I had one of those," while others admit "yeah, well I still do!"

Proven Performance. Every Time. ISL9 for EPA 2010.More of a good thing. That's what you get with the Cummins ISL9 EPA 2010 engine. Very few changes have been made to the base engine in order to meet emissions standards. So you can expect the same high level of performance and reliability that ISL owners currently get from every piece of equipment, handling every workload.
The ISL9 has one of the highest power-to-weight ratios in its class, with heavy-duty features like replaceable wet liners. It features the XPI fuel system – the same technology that's used on the ISX15. This, combined with an improved Electronic Control Module (ECM) and improved airflow, allows the ISL9 to run stronger and with greater responsiveness than ever before.
Adding proven Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to our aftertreatment system with cooled EGR and the Cummins Particulate Filter results in an engine that delivers near-zero emissions without compromising performance.For more information on this engine, view the ISL9 spec sheet.
Cummins PowerSpec is an electronic tool that makes it possible to tailor the operation of Cummins engines in every on-highway application.
*Increase over standard muffler and does not include chassis OEM-supplied components.
XPI Fuel System – The proven technology of the XPI common-rail fuel system delivers a precise quantity of fuel at ultra-high pressures. This, together with more robust electronic engine controls, enables multiple injection events per cycle. Flexibility in injection timing maximizes fuel economy and performance while decreasing exhaust emissions.
Cooled EGR – This next-generation system lowers combustion temperatures for reduced emissions and optimized fuel economy.
Fully Integrated Electronic Controls – A single higher-capacity ECM controls everything from air intake to exhaust aftertreatment for peak performance and near-zero emissions.
Cummins Aftertreatment System – The proven Cummins Particulate Filter reduces particulate matter by over 90%. In 2010 it is combined with Cummins SCR to meet emissions standards while maintaining best-in-class performance, reliability and durability. Cummins SCR technology has been proven in over 200,000 European vehicles and uses Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to achieve NOx emissions at near-zero levels. DEF will be readily available; reference Cummins Filtration flyer LT15618 for more information.
Heavy-Duty Design – Rugged features include replaceable wet liners, roller followers, by-pass oil filtration and targeted piston cooling for longer service in the toughest work environments.
VGT™ Turbocharger – The Cummins VGT Turbocharger is both simple and precise. Electric actuation allows infinite adjustment, providing the exact amount of boost necessary for superior response. The proven sliding-nozzle design has best-in-class reliability and durability.
200,000-400,000 mi (320,000-640,000 km)
*Assuming normal duty cycle.**OEM-supplied; intervals may vary.*** If engine is equipped with an optional coolant filter, it will need to be replaced on the same intervals as the oil filter. Regardless if the engine is or is not equipped with a coolant filter, SCA/DCA additive levels must be checked according to the interval listed in the Owners Manual.**** Extended coolant and drain/flush/fill intervals may be followed when certain requirements are met. For more information on these requirements, refer to the Cummins Coolant Requirements and Maintenance Service, Bulletin 3666132.

The FC Kansas City ownership change is complete.
Set to enter its fifth season in the National Women's Soccer League, FC Kansas City has been sold to Elam Baer, a Minnesota businessman who serves as the CEO for North Central Equity.
Since its inception, the club had been owned by Chris Likens and his two sons, Greg Likens and Brad Likens, along with Brian Budzinski. The latter three also own the Kansas City Comets and have been in a legal dispute over that arrangement since August. Baer is not interested in purchasing the Comets.
Baer previously told The Star that he has no plans of moving FCKC out of Kansas City and intends to place the bulk of his focus on revenue-generating practices.
"When you look at the enormous on-field success this team has had, I don't see any reason why I would go in there and make a lot of changes," Baer said earlier this month. "The bottom line is we need to sell more tickets and get more sponsorship revenue. If you accomplish those two things, a lot of other problems are solved pretty easily."
The previous FC Kansas City ownership group came under scrutiny late last year after a series of a sexually-suggestive emails was released to the media, prompting a league investigation. Shortly thereafter, the group acknowledged it had put the club up for sale.
"With Elam and his partners committed to the club and our region, I know our organization will be stronger than ever and that this move is not only good for the team and our fans, but the league as a whole," Brad Likens said in a statement. "While there are no certainties in sports, I know FC Kansas City will take the field on opening day poised to compete for another NWSL championship."
FC Kansas City has won two NWSL championships but missed the postseason last year for the first time in franchise history. Baer confirmed that coach Vlatko Andonovski will return for his fifth season and be responsible for assembling the club's roster, with oversight from newly appointed general manager Jean-Yves Viardin. Previous general manager Huw Williams resigned last month, citing the need to focus on his company GSI Sports.
Baer and Viardin will fill out the front office staff for FC Kansas City, which currently shares a staff with the Comets.
Baer said some employees would retain their positions with FC Kansas City but others have requested to stay with the Comets.
"On behalf of the league and its owners, I welcome Elam to the NWSL and look forward to working with him and his partners as a new era begins for FC Kansas City," NWSL commissioner Jeff Plush said in a news release. "Elam is committed to strengthening FC Kansas City's roots throughout the entire Kansas City metropolitan area and beyond."

Health care is considered to be the most important field for the proper existence of human beings. Without good health it is impossible to work, study, do various common things and activities. Health care is a great mixture of the branches of medicine, which are aimed to protect health of all people.
When a person is ill, she can go to the doctor and he will cure her as fast as possible. Of course, the level of health care has not always been so high, because even half of a century ago its quality was much lower. Even now more than the half of the population of the planet can not afford appropriate level of health care.
We can write a Custom Research Proposal on Health Care for you!
No wonder, the number of child deaths in Africa and some regions of Asia are too high and reflects the level of their health care and the rate of the development of their countries. Rich countries can afford donating great sums into health care and as a result the population is safe and sound, but the countries of the third world still try to change the condition of health care at least to reduce the child death rates.
A good research proposal on health care is expected to include the development of this sphere of human life, illustrate its importance, its structure and describe the problems and the difficulties health care faces today. A research proposal should be logical and touch upon interesting questions; otherwise the proposal will not manage to impress the professor and will be failed. A good proposal is a bit emotional and convincing. One has to prove that he has sober vision of the problems of the sphere and has new effective reforms helpful to solve these problems and improve the condition of modern medical care service.
A student who chooses to write a research proposal on this topic has to know much about the problem. Teachers expect their students to conduct profound research of all the aspects of the question and complete a detailed analysis of the topic. The paper is expected to be informative, interesting, and great in volume and introduce some new thoughts and solutions. Evidently, students often do not know how to write such kinds of papers and look for extra help in the web. There they find free examples of research proposals on health care system and borrow the writer's experience for their own successful writing.
Having studied the structure of the free sample of research proposal on health care management one has to collect data on the topic from the reliable literary sources, like books and articles from the scientific journals, which analyze the topic from all sides. Only when you gather enough data and realize the composition of the paper, you will be able to complete a convincing original research proposal.
*** ATTENTION! Free sample research proposals and research paper examples on Health Care are 100% plagiarized!!!
At EssayLib.com writing service you can order a custom research proposal on Health Care topics. Your research paper proposal will be written from scratch. We hire top-rated Ph.D. and Master's writers only to provide students with professional research proposal help at affordable rates.

Mustard stains carpet because it contains turmeric, a natural yellow dye. Working quickly with dry-cleaning solvent, a dull knife, some absorbent pads, a small brush, white vinegar, 3 percent hydrogen peroxide and ammonia can save your carpet from a permanent stain.Continue Reading
Lift out excess mustard using a butter knife or another dull tool. Be careful not to spread the spill deeper into your carpet by working in one direction. Remove as much dried mustard as you can.
Read the label to be sure you can use it on carpet. Ventilate the area. Saturate the stain with the solvent. Tamp the stain gently with a brush. Remove any loosened particles. Absorb the solution with a clean pad. Repeat. Follow up by scrubbing with damp sponge containing a small amount of white vinegar in a circular motion. Rinse with water, blot the moisture.
Ventilate the area. Apply a small amount of the mixture to the stain. Let it work for 15 minutes. Rinse with water. Blot the excess. Cover with an absorbent pad. Put a weight on the pad.

A man on a MISSION with a clear VISION
This story is all about an ex-train and tube driver that has hit a mid-life crisis after doing the same job for most of his career. The lights become increasingly dimmer for him at this juncture in life, because he gets sacked from this 'comfortable zone' and complacent position. His career comes to a sudden dead end due to the fact that he has got a big problem with controlling his drinking habits, and the reality is that he has an addiction to the bottle and is an alcoholic; living in complete denial.
Now, left to his own devices and plenty of time to kill, he decides to become a compulsive killer by integrating into the communal public transport rat race and randomly kills innocent citizens by pushing them off the train/tube platforms and sadistically crushes their existence. He does all this successfully disguised as one of the many vagabonds living in the heart of the fast paced city and as the opportunity presents itself, he goes for the kill, whether it's day or night. This film will definitely keep you all at the edge of your seats and it will be a total nail biting thriller, frame by frame of this innovative masterpiece.
Will he finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, or does it all end in tears for fears?
It's more a case of WATCH THIS SPACE than MIND THE GAP!

It's not everyday that you get to move to New York City and reinvent yourself. I was tired of being boring, predictable Emma Mills. I was convinced that my life would be totally different in the Big Apple.
And I was right.
Jackson Reynard was irresistible and I had no plans on resisting him. Jackson was the epitome of tall, dark and handsome and I was more than happy to let him sweep me off my feet. I expected a summer fling but instead I got a heart-stopping romance. I realized that I had met the love of my life. I just didn't realize that sometimes love isn't enough.
It's hard enough getting over an ex. It's even harder when he becomes Hollywood's next biggest heartthrob and his face is plastered on every magazine cover. But the hardest part? The hardest part is when he thrusts himself back into my life and won't let go of the past.
I survived losing the man I loved the first time. I don't think I'll survive it again.
*Contains some mature content.
And leaving her disturbing poems and handwritten notes signed "Forever, Yours." The man entered Holly Frasier's house silently, taking her most cherished personal possessions and taunting her with the subtle threats that he was always nearby.
With Holly's life in jeopardy, tough-as-nails Jack O'Hara was the only person she could trust. To flush out the stalker, she agreed to a fake marriage with the sexy FBI operative, who promised to protect her at all costs. Within Jack's arms Holly found a safe haven, and in his bed, exquisite passion. But could Jack discover her deadly admirer's identity before the stalker intervened and destroyed their chances at forever?
His love could damn her soul…
Ashemnon's demonic hunger for Madeleine Dean's pure, vibrant soul has tormented him throughout every lifetime she's lived on earth. Now, thanks to her desperate father, he has a blood-tight contract in hand. Soon, her soul will belong to him.
All her life, Maddie has been haunted by strange occurrences, hallucinations and increasingly intense nightmares. As her ex-boyfriend walks away, she can almost hear the pieces of her life falling around her. And then she falls—literally—into the arms of a stranger who's the first and only person to understand.
Ash meant to pluck her soul, not sweep her off her feet. Yet the moment they touch, the temptation to seduce her again and again is more than he can resist. Despite the risk, he finds himself succumbing to her charms. And, impossibly, falling in love.
Then Ash learns the reason it's taken centuries to get to this point: He's not the only one with a claim on her soul. Heaven and Hell are in a tug of war—and Maddie's the rope. Control wrested from his hands, Ash can only wait for her to make a choice that will damn one soul to Hell…or damn her own.
Warning: This title contains obsession, soul possession, and hot carnal transgression. Oh, and a few scares for good measure. You can't keep this bad demon down—though you'll want to try.

Projects possible thanks to federal Gas Tax Fund
DRUMMOND, NEW BRUNSWICK--(Marketwired - Aug. 14, 2014) -
Chemin des Huîtres, Chateau Heights, Drummond, Dundee and Saint-Léonard will soon benefit from improvements to local water and wastewater infrastructure thanks to federal investments made through the federal Gas Tax Fund.
To ensure year-round access to clean, safe drinking water in Chateau Heights, a number of households experiencing water shortage will be connected to Fredericton's system. Further, a total of 21 permanent and seasonal residences currently drawing water from private wells in Chemin des Huîtres will now be supplied by the Haut-Shippagan Road water main.
In addition, new and extended wastewater collection services will supplement the existing wastewater treatment systems in Chateau Heights, Drummond, Dundee and Saint-Léonard. This will help continue to ensure effective wastewater disposal while preserving the health and safety of residents and the environment for years to come.
Quick Facts:
"Our Government is pleased to provide municipalities with flexible infrastructure funding that allows them to support projects that address the needs of their community. These improvements, made possible through the federal Gas Tax Fund, will ensure safe and clean drinking water and modern wastewater treatment services for New Brunswick residents. Going forward, our investments through the federal Gas Tax Fund will continue to generate economic growth and job creation across New Brunswick communities for years to come."
The Honourable Bernard Valcourt
Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development and Member of Parliament for Madawaska-Restigouche
"These improved water and wastewater services demonstrate the Government of Canada's commitment to building stronger communities, safer and more prosperous cities, modernizing and developing our infrastructure, and supporting measures to help preserve the environment. We are building a better Canada for future generations."
Mike Allen
Member of Parliament for Tobique-Mactaquac
"Responsible management of our water and wastewater systems is key to fostering a cleaner environment. As well, we are helping local service districts to upgrade their infrastructure and improve their sustainability. This means a better quality of life for all New Brunswickers."
The Honourable Danny Soucy
Minister of Environment and Local Government - New Brunswick

Much of the talk on the floor during Day 1 of the ICSC Spring Convention revolved around the larger than ever Leasing Mall that now contains 2 million square feet and spreads exhibitors across three halls rather than two. That extra 500,000 square feet, though, seems even larger given how long the trek between halls has gotten. It can now take 20 minutes or more to walk from one meeting to the next if you weren't careful about how you scheduled your meetings. I only wish I had brought a pedometer to log how many miles I racked up in traipsing from one hall to the next and back again to get to all my appointments.
The most positive take out of the new format is that the addition of so much space has meant that companies that in the past were relegated to leasing suites (or didn't have booths at all) now have a greater presence at the show. It's been eye-opening to see so many new faces and logos inhabiting the Leasing Mall. Many, many companies we talked to throughout the day were able to take advantage of the expansion to expand booths to great effect. That has helped tremendously ease some of the congestion that has come to mark the Spring Convention. While in the past it was not uncommon to have every nook and cranny of a booth jam-packed to accommodate all the deal making, the new jumbo-sized booths have afforded some much-needed breathing room.
The addition of so much space, in fact, has given the whole conference a lighter feel despite the fact that it has more attendees than ever before. Even with a reported 55,000 attendees--something like a 10,000 jump over last year--those people are spread out over much, much more space than the past. That has created an impression among some attendees that foot traffic is down this year despite all evidence to the contrary. Further, as we moved from one hall to the next, without fail people set up in booths in one hall--regardless of whether it was the North, Central or South Hall--would say they had heard their hall had the slowest traffic and that the two others were the real beneficiaries of the new setup. Our money is that is that ICSC has succeeded in creating more room for circulation, so people just aren't on top of one another as in the past. That makes it seem as if traffic is slow, but in reality it's just that the traffic jams have been broken up. It has been an adjustment getting used to the new addresses and finding out that a company that you were used to being in one place is now somewhere else, in all the larger Leasing Mall has been a great step.
And despite any criticisms of the new layout, we haven't heard a single complaint about dealmaking, which is what's really important in the end.

GameStop has canceled all midnight launches for Assassin's Creed III in the northeast United States due to Hurricane Sandy. A GameStop spokesperson provided IGN with the following statement regarding the decision:
"Our top priority is the safety of our employees and customers. In compliance with directives issued by state and local authorities, stores in the path of the storm will remain closed until it is safe to re-open and midnight openings for Assassin's Creed III have been cancelled in the northeast. Customers should check with their local stores for details on when we will re-open."
Midnight launches in other regions of the United States will not be affected.
Hurricane Sandy is a Category 1 hurricane expected to make landfall today that will affect multiple northeastern states including New York, New Jersey, Maryland and much of New England. Many cities have already undergone mandatory evacuations or halted public transportation as a result of the storm. If you live in an area at risk from the storm, you can find the latest information at the National Hurricane Center.
IGN wishes the best of luck to anyone affected by the storm.

A little over a decade ago, a group of caregivers for spouses with Lewy Body Dementia put together a list of symptoms and attempted to break the progression of LBD into 7 stages. (That list can be found here) For years, it has stood as the only available staging document for caregivers to use as the medical profession has not attempted to tackle such a task due to the complexity of the illness. While the caregivers' list has been very helpful for giving families an idea of the types of symptoms to expect and when to expect them, it was often useless to those whose loved ones did not follow the progression of symptoms in the same order. Many caregivers complained that their loved ones would have symptoms from stage one and stage four at the same time, for example, or would bounce back and forth between stages.
In 2016, Very Well.com released an article simplifying the progression into three basic stages (That article can be found here) They compiled this based on input from several reputable sources which can be seen at the bottom of the article. For me, this system made much more sense and fitted my husband (and every other person I've known with LBD) much better.
According to this article there are basically three stages: (I expanded their explanation by adding examples of symptoms and including information from other sources, including interactions with hundreds of caregivers)
Early stage: Behavioral problems
At the beginning of the illness, behavioral issues are usually the most problematic. The individual will typically experience depression, hallucinations, delusions, REM sleep disorder, paranoia, and confusion. They may also become aggressive, angry, and undergo personality changes. While not all will experience all of these symptoms, most will experience at least some of them. (For example, my husband never became aggressive) It is during this phase the diagnosis is usually made. The individual may either have no movement issues at this time, or very minor ones like mild stiffness or tremor.
Middle Stage: Movement problems
During the Middle Stage of the illness, the behavioral issues tend to level off and movement issues arise. This is not to say the behavioral issues stop, but they don't seem to progress as rapidly as they did in the beginning and in some cases, actually improve. It is during this stage the muscular or Parkinson's-like symptoms develop. The individual may lose control of bladder/bowels. They begin stumbling/falling, and may develop swallowing difficulties. The Lewy Lean might become evident. By the end of this stage, they will likely need help with most if not all of their ADLs (activities of daily living) and will often need placement in a care facility or the caregiver will need to hire home health care aides.
Late/final Stage: increasing weakness
At this point, the individual becomes weaker. They will likely need a wheelchair for most transports, will begin dropping water glasses etc. They reach the point where they can no longer feed themselves. The weakness continues until they eventually succumb to the disease. Often, they develop an infection, pneumonia, or some other illness that will end their life, however some simply shut down. (more on that can be found here) It is rare for this stage to last more than a year, however some have been known to be bedridden for two years or so. *Remember all of these progressions are gradual! They don't simply wake up one day unable to feed themselves ever again. They might need help one day, but not the next, however eventually they need help each time.
Some things to consider:
- It is impossible to diagnose Lewy Body Dementia without an autopsy. Those whose loved ones are not following this progression may possibly have a different type of dementia or more than one type of dementia. It has been estimated that 40-50% of those with dementia have more than one kind. (More on that can be found here)
- The main difference between individuals with LBD isn't the progression of symptoms, but the time each individual stays in each stage. Some may be in Early Stage for 3 years or more while others might enter the Middle Stage after only a few months. My husband was in the Early Stage for about 2 years, Middle Stage for about 2 years and the Final Stage for a little under one year.
- There is no clear cut step between stages. The symptoms morph slowly from one phase into the next. For instance, your loved one might start having swallowing issues, then suddenly improve for a few months before those issues return. Lewy is tricky that way.
- The average life expectancy for Lewy Body Dementia is 5-7 years AFTER diagnosis. Many caregivers can recall symptoms for years before diagnosis, but the statistics for survival do not take that into account. Please remember this is an average. Some will not live as long and others will live longer. (A study on that from a caregiver support group can be found here)
- If a person was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease several years before Lewy Body Dementia was added (meaning they would have had movement issues first) it's important to note that most neurologists would diagnose them with Parkinson's Disease Dementia instead of Lewy Body Dementia. The general rule of thumb is that PDD is diagnosed if the individual has had Parkinson's for more than 2 years before the dementia symptoms arose, however, the two dementias are extremely similar and treated the same. (more can be found on that here)
Final thought:
I personally found this method easier to understand than the more complicated systems that list dozens of symptoms neatly categorized into several stages. Individuals are too different for that sort of method to work consistently. I've also noticed when working with different neurologists, they tend to use the terms early, middle, and late when referring to their patients instead of a complex order of stages. Not once during the time my husband was seeking treatment from either the Cleveland Clinic or our local neurologist did any of the doctors involved say he was in stage two or stage four, etc. They simply said, early/beginning, middle or late. (Some doctors will used the FAST scale, but that is usually for Alzheimer's)
I think it's important for caregivers to look at all documents pertaining to possible symptoms and time frames so they have enough information to make important decisions regarding care and finances. However, attempting to pigeonhole your loved one into a rigid staging system might prove to be more frustrating than productive.

WORDEN, Ill. (KMOV) -- Residents in several southern Illinois counties heard an explosion that destroyed a Worden, Illinois home under renovation early Thursday morning.
A lieutenant with the Madison County Sheriff's Department tells News 4, debris was everywhere in the 7900 block of Possum Hill Road after a house exploded around 1 a.m.
Police said the home appears to have been under renovation and the homeowners were not there at the time of the explosion.
No injuries were reported.
The News 4 phones and Facebook page were buzzing as the explosion was felt by residents in several towns such as Troy, Marine, Alhambra, Edwardsville, Granite City and Staunton, Illinois.
The Madison County Fire Marshal is leading the investigation into the cause. It is not believed to be drug-related.
Further details into the incident have not been released at this time.

Your ears can be damaged by loud sounds! This is a fact - an important fact!
Relatively few people are aware of the relationship between exposure to loud sounds and the actual risk for hearing loss. The National Institutes of Deafness and Other Communications Disorders reports that prolonged exposure to noise at or above 85 decibels for eight hours, repeated daily over a period of time, can cause gradual hearing loss. At 100 decibels, no more than 15 minutes of exposure is recommended in a 24-hour day. And, at 110 decibels, regular exposure of more than a minute can produce permanent hearing loss. Given the fact that output of personal music players can exceed 115 decibels, users of these devices should be aware that their hearing is at risk when high listening volumes are selected.
Here are the facts:
The truly important message is that hearing damage is cumulative—it adds up over time. Repeated overloading of the auditory system will lead to hearing impairment. Many, many young people are damaging their hearing by listening to dangerously loud music. People are showing up at hearing clinics at earlier and earlier ages seeking help for their hearing loss. Unfortunately, once the loss occurs, the damage cannot be repaired. You can and should take steps to protect your precious sense of hearing.
People often do not notice they have hearing loss until the damage is profound and extends down to the frequencies involved in the understanding of speech. At that point, they have difficulty in understanding what others are saying. Many people who reach this level of loss end up wearing hearing aids in order try to salvage their communications abilities and avoid the social isolation that can accompany hearing loss.
If you want to have your hearing evaluated, see an audiologist or licensed hearing instrument specialist in order to arrange a test. A baseline hearing test can be useful in the future.

Each right entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at the subscription price of $1.75 per share, which is referred to as the basic subscription right. If a holder fully exercises all of its basic subscription rights, and other holders do not fully exercise their basic subscription rights, such holder will be entitled to exercise an oversubscription privilege to purchase a portion of the unsubscribed shares at the same price of $1.75 per share, subject to proration and subject, further, to reduction under certain circumstances.
Assuming full participation in the rights offering, Encorium estimates that the net proceeds from the offering would be approximately $5.9 million, which includes the conversion of the promissory notes. Encorium intends to use the proceeds to repay outstanding indebtedness and to support working capital.
Rights offering materials, including a Prospectus and other items necessary to exercise the rights, were mailed on or about August 25, 2010 to eligible stockholders. The Prospectus contains important information about the rights offering, and stockholders are urged to read the Prospectus carefully. Any questions about the rights offering may be directed to Alliance Advisors, LLC, our information agent for the rights offering, at 866-458-9858.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
NASDAQ Listing
The Company is currently listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market. On August 25, 2009, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market notifying the Company that, based on its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2009, the Company's stockholders' equity did not comply with the minimum $2.5 million stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market. As provided in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, the Company submitted to NASDAQ a plan and timeline to achieve and sustain compliance. NASDAQ granted the Company an extension until December 8, 2009 to comply and notified Company that, if at the time of its periodic report for the year ending December 31, 2009, the Company did not evidence compliance; the Company's common stock may be subject to delisting. As of December 31, 2009 the stockholders' equity of the Company was $2.3 million, which failed to meet the $2.5 million minimum stockholders equity requirement. The Company received a delisting action on April 22, 2010 from the NASDAQ Stock Market notifying the Company of its failure to comply with the requirement. In accordance with the terms of the Market Place Rules, the Company requested a hearing before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel. The Company met with the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel on June 10, 2010 and presented its plan of compliance which was substantially based on its acquisition of Progenitor and the successful completion of the rights offering pursuant to this Prospectus. On July 9, 2010 the Listing Qualifications Panel granted the Company's request for continued listing, subject to certain conditions, including that on or before October 19, 2010, the Company must disclose the closing of the rights offering and the resulting stockholders' equity which must be at least $2.5 million and provided that the Company is able to demonstrate compliance with all other requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If the rights offering is not fully subscribed, the Company may not be able to meet the $2.5 million stockholders equity requirement and the Company's stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.
In the event the Company's stock is ultimately delisted, the Company anticipates that its common stock would be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the "Pink Sheets." However, securities may become eligible for such trading only if a market maker makes application to register and quote the security in accordance with SEC Rule 15c2-11, and such application is cleared. Only a market maker may file such application.

I can't wait for this series!
It has the potential to be awesome and the limited run of episodes should keep it super focused. (Well focused for an American TV series anyway) But now I have one more reason to be excited, the actual human version of Jarvis will be in the show! So I'm guessing there will be a few jokes about how Jarvis should stop acting like a cold emotionless robot all the time, etc, etc. to keep the link with the Jarvis AI in Iron Man strong.
The clip doesn't give much else away apart from the macguffin for Peggy's first mission and a preview of a fight scene. It is just a small taste.

This fabulous new historical disc from Cherry Red's El Records includes two classic versions of the Nonetto and the Quatuor Symbolique (Quarteto Simbolico), from 1940 and 1957. It's filled up with guitar pieces from the 1950s: Prelude #3 and Etudes #01 and #08 by Segovia; Preludes #2, #4, and #5 by Bream; and the Gavota-Choro by Almeida.
Originally released on a Capitol LP in 1957 (CTL 7037), the Roger Wagner Chorale and the Concert Arts Ensemble performed two chamber works with chorus: the Quatour and the Nonetto. The sound on the disc was demonstration quality; the final movement of the Nonetto was included on Capitol SAL-9020 "Full Dimensional Sound: A Study in High Fidelity."
Here is a citation to a contemporary review:
Review: [Untitled]
Reviewed Work(s):
Author(s) of Review: Richard F. Goldman
The Musical Quarterly, Vol. 40, No. 1 (Jan., 1954), pp. 157-158
Villa-Lobos thought very highly of Roger Wagner and his singers. Here's a quote from the official RWC website:
"Roger Wagner deserves all my admiration for his dedicated work...a notable achievement in technique and sound as well as perfect interpretation."
The second disc was released as a 78 rpm album in 1941 by RCA Victor: disc #LCT 1143, the title is "Festival of Brazilian Music." In the Nonetto, Hugh Ross conducts the Brazilian Festival Orchestra and the Schola Cantorum. The album also includes Bachianas Brazileiras #1 (with Walter Burle Marx conducting the Brazilian Festival Orch; the Quatour (with the great Brazilian soprano Elsie Houston, soprano and Ross/Brazilian Festival Quartet/Schola Cantorum); and Cancao do Careiro (sung by Elsie Houston, accompanied by Miguel, piano). This album was recorded in collaboration with The Museum of Modern Art and the Commissioner General from Brazil. Another record number for this set is Victor DM-773(5).
Here's a short review from the May 19, 1941 issue of Time Magazine:
"A Festival of Brazilian Music (Victor; 10 sides; $5.50). First big phonographic collection of works by Heitor Villa-Lobos, Brazil's No. i composer and one of the lustiest living. Beautifully recorded by Soprano Elsie Houston, the Schola Cantorum, conducted by Hugh Ross, a scratch orchestra under Burle Marx. Villa-Lobosities: a Bachiana Brasileira for eight cellos attempting to fuse the spirits of Bach and Brazil; a Nonetto for chorus and small orchestra, purporting to describe Brazil's geography."

The founder of a U.K. charity providing wigs to child cancer sufferers praised Harry Styles for cutting his hair in aid of her organisation.
The One Direction star set social media alight on Friday (06May16) by posting an image on Instagram of himself holding a cut-off ponytail.
He captioned the image, "Whoops," and added the hashtag, "#Littleprincesstrust".
The Little Princess Trust is a charity which encourages people to donate their hair after they've had it cut so it can be made into wigs for child cancer sufferers who have lost theirs due to chemotherapy.
Co-founder Wendy Tarplee Morris confirmed on Tuesday, Harry had shorn his locks for the charity and raised much needed awareness of their cause.
"We didn't (know about Harry cutting his hair before he did it)," Wendy tells British daytime TV show This Morning. "Of course we were ecstatic when it happened."
Apparently it was the 22-year-old pop star's idea to donate his hair to the Trust, a Wendy revealed, adding, "A little while back his management team contacted the charity and said he'd expressed an interest in supporting us.
"So we gave some information and details to them and it was left if anything were to happen, they would come back to us. And then on Friday, it all happened."
According to Wendy, who founded The Little Princess Trust in memory of her daughter Hannah, who died from the disease aged five, the Steal My Girl singer's hair will be on its way to the charity very soon.
"It hasn't arrived yet - but there are plans in place to get it to us safely," she reveals.
Harry had to lose his famous long hair before he takes on his first acting role, in Christopher Nolan's World War II film Dunkirk.
The movie will tell the story of the 1940 evacuation of British soldiers across the English Channel in a flotilla of naval and civilian vessels to prevent their capture by Nazi troops.
In preparation for the shoot Harry will reportedly have to live on a ship for several days alongside co-stars Tom Hardy, Mark Rylance and Cillian Murphy in order to experience the conditions World War Two soldiers faced.
Filming on the project is set to begin on Saturday (14May16), with Dunkirk scheduled for release in July 2017.

Josef Škvorecký, 1924 - 2012
"Josef Škvorecký, the Czech-Canadian novelist whose stories of life under totalitarianism drew on his own experiences of both Nazism and Communism, died on Tuesday," reports Joseph Brean for Postmedia News. "He was 87. His novel The Engineer of Human Souls, a humorous account of the absurdity of totalitarianism, won the Governor General's Literary Award for fiction in 1984, and he was awarded the prestigious Neustadt International Prize for Literature in 1980."
From Reuters: "Škvorecký and his author wife Zdena Salivarova set up the Sixty-Eight Publishers in Toronto after leaving Czechoslovakia in the wake of the 1968 Soviet invasion that crushed hopes of the 'Prague Spring' reforms. He published 227 titles in total. Škvorecký's death comes after fellow leading lights of the Czech artistic anti-communist generation also died in the past year. They include [Václav] Havel, who died in December, as well as authors Ivan Martin Jirous, Arnost Lustig and Jiří Gruša."
"Škvorecký left no shortage of legacies to remember him by," writes Atlantic deputy editor JJ Gould, "but one of the more notable themes in his nonfiction writing especially is an emphasis on, as [Matt] Welch puts it [at Reason], 'the oftentime minute similarities between applied fascism and communism.' And one of Škvorecký's more notable explorations of that theme, I always thought, is found in his recollections and insights on the totalitarian hatred of jazz. Here he is writing in the introduction to his novella The Bass Saxophone:
In the days when everything in life was fresh — because we were sixteen, seventeen — I used to blow tenor sax. Very poorly. Our band was called Red Music which in fact was a misnomer, since the name had no political connotations: there was a band in Prague that called itself Blue Music and we, living in the Nazi Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, had no idea that in jazz blue is not a color, so we called ours Red. But if the name itself had no political connotations, our sweet, wild music did; for jazz was a sharp thorn in the sides of the power-hungry men, from Hitler to Brezhnev, who successfully ruled in my native land.
"Anyone who finds this proposition fascinating won't, I promise, be disappointed to read the rest of this book, or for that matter all of Talkin' Moscow Blues: Essays About Literature, Politics, Movies, and Jazz."
At his site dedicated to Škvorecký, Mattias Idunger notes that Škvorecký wrote two books about Czech cinema, All the Bright Young Men and Women, and Jirí Menzel and the History of the Closely Watched Trains. "Škvorecký extensively wrote for films and television. The feature film The Tank Battalion, adapted from his novel The Republic of Whores, was the first Czech film made not by the Barrandov State Studios but by a private company, The Bonton Films; it was the biggest box-office success since the fall of communism. Other features, written for Prague TV, include Eine kleine Jazzmusik, adapted from his story of the same name, The Emöke Legend from a novella of the same name, and a two-hour TV drama Poe and the Murder of a Beautiful Girl, based on the murder of Mary Rogers of New York which Poe had used for his story 'The Mystery of Marie Roget.' Three very successful TV serials were made from his stories: Sins for Father Knox, The Swell Season and Murders for Luck."
