The National Corn Growers Association and the Iowa Corn Growers Association, in partnership with the Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota and Nebraska Corn Growers Associations, have released a tool to help voters quickly determine where candidates stand on a variety of agricultural issues.
Aimed at keeping corn farmers informed and engaged in the political process during the 2012 presidential campaign, the Corn Caucus report card and accompanying information offer succinct information gathered through a survey of major candidates on issues relating to NCGA's legislative priorities.
"While NCGA does not endorse any candidate, we do work to educate voters on candidate stances on the issues affecting farming," said NCGA Grower Services Action Team Chair Brandon Hunnicutt.
"Similar to other industries, agriculture has many areas that are touched by government activities. The information made available through the Corn Caucus project is a valuable tool for anyone considering how a candidate's views might eventually impact many areas of their operation."
This year, the survey looked at candidate views on ethanol, farm programs, trade, the Environmental Protection Agency and transportation. Awarding each candidate a letter grade for their farm-friendliness in subcategories of each area, the final report card offers insight into the strengths and weaknesses of candidate positions on agriculture.

The ConnectionPool object adds a custom TransportListener, which implements the onException method, in order to be informed when the transport has failed, so that it can properly execute its 'expiredCheck' method, and allow the PooledConnectionFactory to remove it from the ConnectionPool.... > In the case of using an underlying FailoverTransport, which sets the maxReconnectAttempts to something small, such as "2", then it's possible that the FailoverTransport could fail prior to the ConnectionPool object completing it's own initialization, and thus prior to it's adding it's TransportListener to the connection. I would expect there are other transports that could also fail immediately and have the same behavior. > This scenario is readily reproducible in the case where the client is started up with no broker available. > I've found a solution by adding a simple check after the call to addTransportListener, to check for any prior transport failed, by calling 'connection.isTransportFailed()', and setting the 'hasFailed' flag if true. This will update the flag for those cases that did not successfully add the transport listener prior to that initial failure. > Without this fix, the ConnectionPool is unusable, in that the underlying connection will never be evicted to from the PooledConnectionFactory....This is especially pronounced if the idleTimeout is set to 0, and it never recovers. > Jason -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

The top is priced at a very reasonable $45 and the bottoms are $35. That's cheaper than a Billabong bikini!
With this one i'm going to hand wash it and not even risk putting it in a lingerie bag in the machine.
the mint bouquet bandeau really felt light to me, not as supportive as I hoped, but comfortable none of the less. I don't think I would be comfortable taking the detachable straps off so it makes for a cute halter neck top.
I spent a little time outside behind my apartment block this afternoon sunbaking and trying to get a tan. Monty took this as his chance to take a few photos. This bikini is perfect for sunbaking and light swimming but I wouldn't go surfing or swimming laps in this beautiful number.
The tie bottoms are ridiculously comfortable - seriously the greatest. Their colour means that i've probably got about 10 other tops that will match it perfectly too! There's 41 items on sale to mix and match on their website too. You better get shopping!!
I'll have some better photos for you guys next week when I have time to take proper photos with real sand and water! the weather is warming up enough to go swimming soon! i'm just waiting on the pool to get repaired. But for now guys, please go check out RH Swimwear's website (link above) and trust me, you'll fall in love with it.
Ruth absolutely nailed this design, it's beautiful and I love it! I can't wait to check out the other styles. I think my next one will be a one piece.

AAGP Improves Results in Stem Cells Transplanted in Retina Tissue by 300%
10:41 AM ET, 05/02/2016 - Business Wire
ST. MARYS, W.Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 2, 2016-- ProtoKinetix, Incorporated (OTCQB:PKTX) (the "Company" or "ProtoKinetix") (www.protokinetix.com) is pleased to announce that a paper submitted by Dr. Kevin Gregory-Evans on ProtoKinetix AAGP has been accepted by the Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine for publication. The date of publication is unknown at this time but should be available online in advance of the printed version. AAGP, an antifreeze glycopeptide, has been demonstrated to significantly improve the viable yield of stem cells transplanted in retinal tissue at the University of British Columbia under the guidance of Dr. Kevin Gregory-Evans.
Dr. Gregory-Evans concluded that embryonic cells treated with AAGP and transplanted into retina tissue, an accepted model for the central nervous system, compared to the control group not treated was 300% more viable.
Dr. Gregory-Evans proposes that AAGP works by inhibiting toxic signaling from surrounding necrotic tissue. Necrotic tissue is dead tissue, which usually results from an inadequate local blood supply. Necrotic tissue contains dead cells and debris that are a consequence of the fragmentation of dying cells.
AAGP could be a huge benefit to the future of Pre-clinical and Clinical transplantation medicine,said Dr. Kevin Gregory-Evans. He added,AAGP will revolutionize transplantation medicine across the board.
The significance of these results may have far reaching implications. In addition to cell, tissue and organ transplantations, there are strong implications that AAGP may have powerful applications for the treatment of stroke and heart attack treatment.
Dr. Kevin Gregory-Evans is currently Professor of Ophthalmology in the Faculty of Medicine, University of British Columbia, and holder of the Julia Levy BC Leadership Chair in Macular Research, Vancouver, Canada.
Dr. Gregory Evans' Bio is too extensive to repeat in full on this press release-his full Bio can be found at:
Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes research and reviews on the development of therapeutic approaches which combine stem/progenitor cells with biomaterials and scaffolds, and growth factors and other bioactive agents. The journal focuses on the development of biological functional substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue or organ function. The publication carries an Impact Factor of 5.199.
ProtoKinetix, Incorporated is a molecular biotechnology company that has developed and patented a family of hyper stable, potent glycopeptides (AAGP) that enhance both engraftment and protection of transplanted cells used in regenerative medicine. Due to the results achieved over the last four years of testing the company is now preparing a submission to enter into a Phase 1/2 human clinical trial. Additional studies will be expanded to include whole organ transplantation and other cell therapies used in regenerative medicine.

Indeed, it has now been confirmed that GLaDOS voice actress Ellen McLain is providing her vocals as the disembodied A.I. for Pacific Rim. However, director Guillermo del Toro has now stated that the voice is merely a nod to the Portal franchise and will likely be downplayed for the final film.
"I wanted very much to have her, because I'm a big Portal fan. But just as a wink," Del Toro explained to the Toronto Sun. "She's not cake-obsessed. She's not out to destroy humanity."
Although he did get Valve's permission to use the familiar GLaDOS voice for the trailer, Del Toro added that McLain's voice will eventually be modulated somewhat. "The filter we're using is slightly less GLaDOS. Slightly. The one in the trailer I wanted to be full-on GLaDOS," he said.
So it sounds like the GLaDOS A.I. isn't a direct representation from the renowned Portal antagonist, rather a tip of the hat. Nevertheless, it's a nice touch for fans of the games.
Meanwhile, Del Toro said that his own video game project inSANE is still moving forward. The project was dropped last year by publisher THQ after facing financial troubles, but it sounds like things are finally looking up. "We are in talks with a very, very big company. I can't say who, but it's one of the big ones. They really responded to the game, they responded to what we were trying.
"Some of the devices of the game I need to update, because now I've seen them in other games that just came out," he continued. "That always happens. But the principle we're trying to do with the game is to make it a really immersive narrative experience. It's still a really challenging proposal."
Pacific Rim hits theaters on July 12.

Aim: To develop oracy in all pupils, enabling them to access a wider vocabulary and improve their written and spoken communication, and ultimately their academic success.
Background: The ability profile of students is significantly below the national average, and the number of pupils who have English as another language (EAL) (28%) or are entitled to free school meals (17%) is rising.
Year 1: Schemes of work for Key Stage 3 were rewritten to ensure that speaking and listening were embedded into the learning process and not seen as an 'add on'. The Kagan approach was used in all lessons, allowing pupils to discuss and rehearse their answers before responding to the whole class. This helped with motivation and confidence, and improved the quality of the answers given. Pupils were interviewed in small groups, which they preferred to questionnaires, and showed a good deal of enthusiasm for the teaching method, while allowing staff to reflect on what was not popular. However, the project had limited success – the most able students thrived but those with low literacy remained reticent. EAL students made good progress in speaking and listening but this was not reflected in their reading and writing assignments.
Year 2: An English support assistant was employed for those needing additional help, and advice was sought from EAL and Special Educational Needs departments in order to develop more differentiation for lower ability classes. A wide range of pedagogies was tried, and results showed that pupils benefitted from opportunities to investigate, through talk, their assigned task. The discussions were confident and engaging, but more rewarding was the academic improvement in writing that followed. Academy Week activities were used to engage pupils, and proved a great success.
Year 3: The setting of Year 7 was revised to support the variation in pupils' Maths and English ability, so that pupils could excel where they had strengths. A coherent course from Year 7-11 was planned to allow careful tracking of progress and ensure that all students leave school able to communicate effectively. Academy Week and World Book Day activities were successful, and a subscription to 'Sound Training' was taken in order to make the curriculum accessible to the most vulnerable students.
Evidence: Student interviews, written work.
Impact: The KS3 curriculum now has greater coherence and provides students with the skills they will need for lifelong learning. A greater appreciation has been gained of the part played by speaking and listening in pupils' learning, and students have been enthusiastic. However, lower ability students have not made as great an improvement as those of higher ability.
Reflections: Regular data collection is important, as is frequent interviewing of pupils, which can provide a useful guide in shaping the project's future. Continual monitoring of the department helps to ensure that all students are having the same experience.

Keeping BusyPosted by xhisdudenessx in Riff-Raff, tags: Blackjack, Las Vegas, Las Vegas Maoris, Mirage, Stack
Man, it's hard to find time to update this with Work, School, Rugby, and a girlfriend haha. School has been ok so far. I got a pretty good critique last week, but it required a lot of re-work. I think I've managed to get it close but I had a short week and so I had limited time to work on it, but I think given the ammount of time I had I did pretty good I think. Awaiting this weeks critique hoping it's good eek!
Work has been ok. It's been a little busy. I just recorded a tutorial about a clavicle/Scapula setup that Kai taught me before R11 came out. I've got a few more tutorials in the que to do.
Rugby season has started! Whoo! Because we are a new club we are are in Division IV which is the lowest Division. There are 5 other teams in the division. We started last weekend in Long Beach against a newly formed Team called the Long Beach Waves which I believe formed from the San Pedro Rhinos. They are a big tough team of big islanders. In our first match of the Season we managed to pull off a 10-5 win. This weekend we traveled to Vegas to play the Maoris. So some of us came up early on Friday and others came on Saturday. Libby and I went up on Friday and stayed at the Rio. It's a nice place to stay really. We went to Stack(Best Burger ever), then played some Blackjack at the Mirage before Meeting up with some of the guys on the Team where we went to Oshea's for some beers which was a lot of fun. Then Saturday we played the Maoris, another set of big Islanders, but we played well and won handily. Our pack is pretty solid, I think we won all but 2 scrums. That means Offense and Defense, and we didn't lose any of our own scrums. At half-time it was 29-0 With trys by Cox, Koto, Marcus, Myself, and Hector.
We started the second half and Rubin scored a try. Then, we brought in some subs, and unfortunately, one of our subs Jeff got tackled oddly by a much larger guy and It looks like he broke his fibula. It was truly a shocking and sad moment. The Maori's thought it best to just call the game over at that point since it was so one sided, they did not want to see anyone else get injured. EMT's were called and Jeff was taken to the hospital. I have not heard much else from him or the extent of his injury, but I want to wish him a speedy recovery. It was a jolting moment to hear someone screaming in pain. It reminds you this is a tough, dangerous sport.
After the Match the Maoris had us over at a nice little joint called PT's for the social. Bunch of nice guys they were. I always enjoy playing with fun nice guys. It was suggested by Marcus that we all must shoot the boot since this is a new club. So at PT's, Cox, Ruben, Myself, and Nick all shot the Boot(Nick had scored against long beach), leaving Hector, Koto, and Marcus to shoot the boot next week at home.
Me shooting the boot. Paulie Cheering them on. Rugby is a blast. We got a home game this coming weekend.

The ultimate conservative is a self-reliant American
As you think about the concerns that many Americans have which have stimulated interest and activity In the Tea Party movement, there are many issues that we, as individual Americans, have no power to control.
• We can't control the vicious winter storms which, it seems have been sent to prove the insanity of the "Global Warming" fiasco.
• We can't control the elimination of our liberties by executive orders and dictatorial edicts which bypass proper legislation.
• We can't control our representatives who choose not to represent us, except to vote them out in the next election and hope our votes count.
• Millions have lost jobs and homes because of government and bank economic policies (manipulation).
• We are fighting to keep our Second Amendment "legal" right to bear (own) arms (guns) and ammunition while our non-representing representatives in government are working to turn that right into a privilege and remove it.
• We can't control American farmers forced out of business, huge crop failures and investors being allowed to sell food away from hungry Americans.
• And the list goes on and on of events and conditions that control our lives about which we can do absolutely nothing.
Think about this:
• What would give you safety and power—placing you back in control of your own life, over every single one of the above "uncontrollable circumstances"?
• What would enable you to keep your guns even if they were confiscated in food distribution lines as they have been in every other country when populations were disarmed.
• What can you control that will give you peace and safety in the event of job loss, quarantines, martial law, economic depression, civil unrest and even war?
The answer is so simple that most people, except those who are without it, don't even realize how perfect a solution it is to every problem we could face. The answer, the solution, the need, the insurance, the battle plan, the peace of mind and the wisdom throughout all generations of time is to have a substantial savings account in FOOD.
Right now unprecedented numbers of Americans are returning to a practice of our self-reliant and independent fore-fathers—that of storing supplies of food.
The events and circumstances we are facing here in America are so unfamiliar to most of us, but yet so serious, that we each must wisely choose how we will face our future. History has proven over and over again that food is the beginning solution to almost every major problem particularly those involving independence, freedom, security and, yes, even survival.
Whether you agree with the following reasons that people are putting in supplies of food or not, food always has been, is now and forever will be the greatest dependency as well as the most comforting source of safety and security for every human being on our planet.
Here are some of the reasons people are storing food:
One in six Americans presently worry about getting food daily.
Runaway inflation in Germany and Argentina followed the same inflationary path that the US is presently on. With runaway inflation, the price of a loaf of bread doubled daily until it cost billions of the country's currency units.
The National ID card is expected to be required in order to buy food.
Christians searching the Book of Revelations believe that for about half the 7-year tribulation or 3 ½ years no one will be able to buy or sell without the "mark" (most consider this the ID card.) Can anyone think of anything, other than food, which people would be so desperate to buy that they would be willing to take "The Mark"?
Global warming whether real or fabricated will likely be used to control fertilization of crops and tax farmers out of business.
Legislation to prevent people from gardening is being proposed. Also legislation of all sorts is being initiated to track and control all food and livestock. Taxation of farming and livestock associated with global warming is in process.
The Doomsday Seed Vault is being built in Norway with the intent of being the only source for seeds to grow food worldwide.
The message from Afghanistan and Iraq is that if the food is not centralized and people have their own little supplies, it makes no difference how many guns are against them. They are hard to beat. The populations of these two countries are very food self-reliant and, therefore, pose a very difficult military challenge to control.
If in quarantines, martial law, disasters and emergencies people don't have their own individual supplies, they will be dependent and helpless like the miserable conditions after hurricane Katrina.
On the issue of guns in the possession of the people—food, or the lack of it, has always been used to take the protection of guns away from people. (Cuba, China, Germany etc.)
Imported food from countries with no safety standards for insecticides, fertilizers, bacterial and chemical contamination have entered our country's food supply and have proven to be very dangerous.
Dangers of food contamination such as E. coli and salmonella along with potential terrorism.
Job loss and illness are hugely reduced in their impact financially and emotionally with a strong savings account of food.
Helping neighbors or family members to get needed food is always a concern.
Storms and weather make food impossible to transport, destroy crops and isolate people from supplies.
The year 2012 and the anticipated global changes are of concern to many for possible food shortages and survival issues.
Serious American crop failures are creating shortages of food to be processed into supplies for people to store. Even though shortages have not appeared in the grocery stores, as soon as we become dependent on the 2009 crop, everyone will be affected.
Subscribe to the NewsWithViews Daily News Alerts!
So there you have it. Even though the function eFoodsDirect for almost 30 years has been to pack and ship food to families, our greatest challenge and concern is exactly the same as the families we supply. How long will we be able to get the raw materials that are used to prepare the food supplies? Our answer is the same as yours and that is to get in as much food as we possibly can as quickly as we can.
When we look back (to our American Independent forefathers) to the future (coming events of our times) we discover that the possession of a substantial supply of food is the best and maybe the only guarantee of...
"life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".

(Nao: Just skip this blabber and go to the next paragraph for the real description) The wait is finally over! Hi, I'm Reika Kuro! Some of you may know me as @BlackAlphaRandomness, yup it's me. I'm here with my good friend Naomi Potter otherwise known as @TornadoGem. Please follow us both for more great(hers are good mine are meh, but I'm working on it) books/stories. IONACEA is about two girls who adopt a box of kittens, one girl being an otaku and the other a very...calculating...business woman. Those kittens have a secret. They are really a criminal group, the Akatsuki, from the show Naruto. When the Akatsuki suddenly change back into humans and get mixed up in these two strange girls lives, just what will happen to the poor men and woman? Will they find love or will they be killed? Find out in IONACEA! Just kidding. Here's the real description:
Have you ever imagined the Akatsuki being turned into cats and being sent to our world? Perhaps you have, but that itself isn't very fun. How about a world that's exactly like ours, except with the Host Club, Izaya Orihara, and futurist K Project with Yu-gi-oh 5Ds concepts? Now, that makes it more interesting. Add in two girls who are slightly psycho in their own ways, and you have an interesting story, especially once the Akatsuki start falling for them.

Ranchi, May 18 :
Riding on a comprehensive performance, Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Chennai Super Kings by five wickets in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the JSCA International Stadium here Sunday.
On a low and slow track, Royal Challengers Bangalore bowlers did well to restrict the famed Super Kings batting line-up to a modest 138 for four in 20 overs. Suresh Raina top scored with an unbeaten 62 while David Hussey made 25.
It was an impressive performance by the Royal Challengers bowlers and pacer Abu Nechim Ahmed was the miser of the lost giving away just 18 runs for one wicket from his four overs. Fast bowler Varun Aaron also picked up two wickets while veteran off-spinner Muttiah Muralitharan did well for his 1/29.
While chasing, Chris Gayle gave a steady start with his 46 off 50 balls but it was a whirlwind knock of 28 in just 14 balls by AB de Villiers that helped Royal Challengers Bangalore surpass the target scoring 142 for five with a ball to spare.
Gayle looked never in hurry but his innings was laced with aggression as well. After the early loss of Parthiv Patel (10), Gayle and Kohli added 61-runs for the second wicket at a time when the spinners Ravichandran Ashwin (2/16) and Samuel Badree (0/15) were putting the pressure with some tight bowling. Hussey also picked up two wickets with his off-spin but conceded 38 runs.
Gayle, who hit three fours and three sixes, became Ashwin's second victim after he tried to hit the spinner out but later defended, was beaten in turn and had his off-stumps knocked back.
With the score at 110/3 in the 17th over, De Villiers took away the match from Super Kings with his explosive knock that was studded with three sixes and a four. The South African was also adjudged as Man of the Match.
Earlier in the day, Raina overcame an unimpressive start to score an unbeaten half-century that took Super Kings to a modest 138 for four. Raina struck a six and six boundaries in his 48-ball knock.
Chennai lost Dwayne Smith (9) and Brendon McCullum (19) inside five overs and it was Raina and Hussey, who got the innings back on track with a crucial 75-run stand for the third wicket.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA) (which may also be called the "Affordable Care Act, ACA," or even "Obamacare") does not specifically mention ADHD, but its protections should benefit people with ADHD.
Health Insurance in General:
In general, under the ACA, health insurance cannot now exclude, limit, or deny coverage to a child, based solely on a pre-existing condition. Insurers cannot limit lifetime coverage to a fixed dollar amount or remove coverage due to a mistake on an application.
In general, starting in 2014, insurance cannot discriminate against individuals of any age due to a pre-existing condition, nor impose annual dollar limits on coverage. Each State will have competitive marketplaces called Health Insurance Marketplaces1 where small businesses and individuals can purchase private insurance plans and ask questions. For example, marketplaces can tell consumers whether they are eligible for tax credits for private insurance or for programs like the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Note that health insurance obtained before March 23, 2010, may be a "grandfathered" plan that is exempt from providing some protections under the ACA.
Specific Coverage for Diagnosis and Treatment of ADHD:
Health plans offered in the Marketplaces and Medicaid state plans, will be required to offer essential health benefits in 10 categories including: (1) "prescription drugs" and (2) "mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment." Plans in each Marketplace will also offer differing levels of coverage. Each state will have the opportunity to set standards for plans offered in its Exchange. States that choose not to set their own standards will have those standards set by the federal government. Thus, prescription drug coverage will vary among states; and which conditions qualify for coverage under "mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment" will vary among states. Plans within each state can differ in the amount of coverage, if any, offered for ADHD. Thus, when shopping for insurance in a Marketplace, compare plans to determine whether, and what kind of, coverage is available for the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD.

On August 24, 2010, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
announced the release of a new web tool, available for download at HealthCare.gov, that
will make it easier to search for insurance coverage options. "By
putting the power of information at your fingertips, HealthCare.gov is
helping American families everywhere to take control over their health
care and make the choices that are right for them," said HHS
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. For anyone seeking to understand the new
benefits under the Affordable Care Act, the website is an extremely
valuable resource.
The Insurance Finder widget enables anyone with a
website or blog to embed a tool on their site that allows users to begin
the process of searching for insurance coverage options. After users
answer two questions ("select a state" and "which best
describes you"), they click on "next steps" and are redirected to
a page on HealthCare.gov that continues the process. Based on their
answers to specific questions, the coverage finder provides a
personalized list of coverage choices.

On July 22, 2010, the White House announced new federal regulations to strengthen
patients' rights to appeal health insurance denials. That same
day, the National Health Council released the following
statement from its president, Myrl Weinberg:
People with chronic conditions make up the largest segment of users
of health care in this country. They require care and treatment that
will allow them to live the healthiest, most productive lives possible.
It is essential that they be able to obtain and retain coverage and care
that meet their individual health care needs.
The steps taken today by the Obama Administration will provide
patients with an understandable, predictable internal and external
appeals process. It's the right thing to do. It's a fair solution
for patients—particularly those living with chronic diseases and
We are also pleased that $30 million has been allocated for
strengthening state-based consumer assistance offices. This is a
critical step to improving patient awareness of their rights.
On July 1, 2010, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced the establishment of a new
Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan (PCIP). The plan will make
temporary coverage available to Americans who have been uninsured for at
least six months and who are unable to obtain health coverage because of
a pre-existing health condition. The PCIP will be in effect now through
2014, when the new health insurance exchanges are established.
Twenty-nine states plus the District of Columbia have decided to
administer the plan themselves, and twenty-one states elected to have
HHS administer their plans.

FLACS-Risk is a new, unique software solution for 3D CFD risk modelling and visualization. The tool allows risk-owners to design facilities that are significantly more cost effective, while still maintaining the required high safety levels.
Key Benefits of FLACS-Risk
- 3D visualization of risk to efficiently communicate and improve risk-owners understanding of safety issues
- Reduce the cost of design, engineering and construction
- More efficient workflows reduce man-hours and lead-time of running simulations by more than 25 per cent
- Will standardize methodology for safety studies
The FLACS software gives accurate answers about explosion overpressures, toxic gas concentrations and heat loads, which is critical input when designing facilities with explosion, toxic and fire hazards. The benefit of FLACS-Risk is clear 3D visualization of risk calculation data, which can be communicated to risk-owners more efficiently than ever before.
Improved Understanding of Safety Issues
Traditionally, the task of calculating the extent of risk in hazardous environments has been reserved for a few, high-end safety consultancies. The challenge has also been that such studies take long to conduct.
The unique quality of FLACS-Risk is that you can show the full 3D risk picture. By identifying structural hotspots, the risk-owners can design structures with reinforcements in areas of high forces and not uniformly reinforce for the highest force anywhere.
FLACS-Risk will have integrated quality assurance functions and give less room for error. Consistency in output between different users will improve, with far less time spent in the project.
Efficient Workflows
An important part of FLACS-Risk is the ability to run and manage many simulations efficiently. Originally FLACS was developed to run a hand-full of simulations, while for risk studies you need to run hundreds or thousands of simulations.
FLACS-Risk Simulation Capabilities:
- Well organized
- Big volume
- Inexpensive to run: Computer hours are cheap; it is additional man-hours that cost money
- Auditable
- Simulations run quickly
FLACS-Risk Features
The first commercial version of FLACS-Risk will have some limitations, most importantly no explosions. However, many risk-owners will benefit greatly from a 3D FLACS risk tool that provides valuable output from risk studies on dispersion and jet fires.
Features of FLACS-Risk version 1.0:
- Ventilation, dispersion and fire modelling
- Steady state and transient modelling
- UKOOA ignition model
The launch of FLACS-Risk complements our existing software portfolio. We believe that companies can achieve significant cost and time saving by standardising on a single software tool that resolves both consequence and risk simulations.
FLACS-Risk Launches in 2017
The FLACS-Risk v1.0 module was released on Monday 13th March 2017.

4:30pm 9th of June…..The scene was set, the crowds had gathered and we were on our way. Months of preparation and training and finally we had cast off.
The send off party
Ciaran at the Helm
Not long after clearing Killary Harbour we had some force 3 northerlies which enabled us to head West at about 7kts. Watch systems established….Andy & Ciaran, Jamie & Josie and Adam & I…..3 hours on 6 hours off. Our first watch was 9pm to 12pm and was a stunning one….great sailing and a fiery sunset.
Perfect conditions, a fine chorizo and pasta dinner, delicious chocolate and banana cake by Ma Muldowney, a spectacular sunset……what could go wrong?
The winds eased throughout the night and by the time Adam & I came on watch for our 6am watch the winds had died completely. We were 100 NM from Killary. An easy decision to bring the engine into play as we had slowed right down. After a few minutes it sounded wrong so we shut it down and started looking into it. A leak in the gearbox almost all all the transmission fluid had leaked. We had spare but we had lost about 2 litres. This was critical and could leave us with out the engine. So….a hard but easy decision…..about turn and return to Killary. Initially we had slack winds meaning it could be days returning home but luckily our fortune changed and we got perfect winds. We lost wind along the Killary and Shane, Jamies son, came out and towed us in to anchor.
So, currently we are at anchor and the gearbox has to come out. Until we have this problem resolved we cannot continue on route……….Watch this space!!!

Both ends of the Bowie Baysox battery had all sorts of problems last night, and the Albany-Colonie Yankees sensed the uneasiness and took complete advantage in a 12-4 rout before 7,410 fans at Memorial Stadium.
Bowie's Gregg Zaun, still recoving from tendinitis, was starting at catcher for only the second time since his return from the disabled
list Thursday and it was apparent that his arm strength was nowhere near 100 percent. Albany stole five bases in the first three innings.

Something That You Should Put An Eye On


text:
When it comes to worries about security of IoT data in the cloud, the sky's the limit.
That was the inescapable consensus of a LiveWorx roundtable among industry representatives concerned about legal, national-security, financial, and seemingly countless other problems connected with protecting stored and potentially sensitive information.
There was one other clear conclusion: Given the enormous potential and momentum of the Internet of Things, there's no choice but to address it.
"The benefits are clearly there, so security is something we have to pay attention to, we have to invest in. But we're moving ahead," said Rob Leavitt, director of thought leadership at PTC.
"The security challenge for IoT in the cloud is enormous and growing," Leavitt said. "The scale of what we're dealing with is getting much larger very, very quickly. It's easy to get alarmist about this."
Participants said they fret about what role government will play by regulating, inspecting, and supporting IoT systems, for example—and whether different regulations, imposed by different governments, will be at odds.
They talked about accountability for software altered by a client—a cell phone carrier that adds its own features to the software already embedded in a smartphone, for example—and who ultimately has access to and owns data.
They lose sleep over which partner in a supply chain is responsible for safeguarding collected data, especially because that chain gets hard to follow as it stretches farther and farther around the world. Some recent high-profile data breaches involved third-party vendors; hackers who stole access to 40 million debit and credit card numbers from Target in 2013, for instance, turned out to have gotten into the network through a HVAC contractor working at the stores.
"How do you assure that your partners and your partners' partners' as you continue to add to that supply chain are following the right kinds of policies and procedures?" asked John Sorel, security and compliance manager at PTC Cloud Services.
Security concerns in the otherwise giddy world of IoT have become "the wet blanket at the party," Leavitt said. "Every day we see problematic examples. But the reality is we're not starting from scratch. This is not all new. We've been working in the cloud for many years. We've been ensuring security in the cloud for many years. We know what the issues are. We have a lot to build on."
That doesn't make things easy.
The complexity of protecting data in the cloud is about "the volume, the scale of what we're now looking at in IoT, and the complexity of the infrastructures we're all building and we're all becoming a part of" in "a far more diverse landscape of different kinds of systems, applications, devices, types of connectivity, and many more players involved that we now need to bring into a more secure environment."
For example, medical records and devices fall under the restrictions of the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, which imposes fines for unauthorized exposure of PHI, or protected health information. PII, or personally identifiable information, is subject to U.S. privacy laws and in some cases can't legally be transmitted across some borders. Some rogue states are high risk for cloud security.
The potential of financial payoffs from IoT technology, combined with the threat of financial penalties for violations, is likely to drive new attention to security, the roundtable participants agreed.
"The sheer magnitude of the demand will force them to whole new level of compliance and liability," said Leavitt.
One way to reach that new level, some people in the session said, was to find the greatest vulnerability among connected products.
"They're all looking for the weakest link," Sorel said of hackers. "They're probably going to start with the end device. They need an attack point to get in there."
He echoed what other experts have been telling audiences at LiveWorx: that security starts with design.
"What you need, and a lot of companies don't do this, is to build the security right into the development process," Sorel said.
One problem with this is that the engineers designing products aren't necessary information technology people, and the information technology people aren't security specialists. Finding employees with those skills is one of the looming challenges of IoT, other speakers this week have warned.
Then suppliers need to set up detection and mitigation measures.
They need to "know when it's happening and what to do about it," Leavitt said. "You can make a better customer by how you respond to a problem."
People at the session said they expect industry associations to come up with best practices guidelines for IoT security. So might government agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration.
That red tape could create more harm than good, some said.
"I wish somehow we could consolidate those," Sorel said.
He and others also said that it's important to look for help in one other key place: the cloud itself.
"Look at your cloud provider," he said. They're the ones who are ultimately protecting your data. Who has access to your data once it's in the cloud?"
And, in the worst case, he said, "Always have a strategy to get out of the cloud. Make sure you can pull that data out and continue on."

Fatal Scandal
Book 9, The Fatal Series - A Fatal Series Novel
Marie Force
This book can be downloaded and read in Apple Books on your Mac or iOS device.
Book 8 of the Fatal series from New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Marie Force
As a new year dawns in the capital city, dual scandals rock the Metropolitan Police Department—and Lieutenant Sam Holland is right in the middle of them. Chief Farnsworth is catching heat for the way he handled a recent homicide investigation, and Detective Gonzales is accused of failing to disclose an earlier connection to the judge who decided his custody hearing.
When Gonzo's fight for his child turns deadly and he has a shaky alibi, Sam must defend two of her closest colleagues. All while her husband, Vice President Nick Cappuano, settles into his new office at the White House.
Nick begins to wonder if the president is using him for a political boost, and his worries mount over a complication in the plans to adopt Scotty at a time when Sam is being put through the wringer by the always-rabid DC press corps. As the evidence against Gonzo piles up, Sam suspects someone is gunning for her—and her team.

Early in June 1851, a 150-wagon caravan of 500 Mormons reached a sycamore grove about 15 miles north of Cajon Pass, the site of the several camps which periodically were established to protect the pass. The Mormons stayed here while negotiating to buy the Rancho San Bernardino, 15 miles to the south. As soon as the $77,000 purchase was agreed upon, they started to build and plant although it was not until February 1852, that the final papers were registered.
News of an Indian skirmish alerted the newcomers to the dangers of the area. In the center of their new mile-square town of San Bernardino, the leaders set aside eight acres and fenced in a parallelogram. 300 feet wide by 720 feet. Twelve foot high walls protected three of the sides. The fourth side was a series of log buildings jammed close together. All exterior walls were loopholed and the gateways were indented to allow for crossfire.
Life for the first year at San Bernardino was centered at this enclosure, known variously as Fort San Bernardino or Mormon Stockade. Weapons and ammunition were lent to the occupants by the Army garrison at Rancho del Chino. Nightly guards were maintained and an elderly Negro, Uncle Grief, was put in charge of the alarm system: a battered horn which he was to blow in the event of an attack.
"Good industrious neighbors" is how the Los Angeles Star hospitably described the newcomers to Southern California. Ranger Horace Bell remembered his San Bernardino visits where "I was benefitted by my contact with these serious, rugged people. They set good examples for youth. There were no gamblers tolerated in San Bernardino, no rum sellers, no loud characters offering vice for sale. There were no drones there. Persistent industry, intensive husbandry were the impressive features of life there."
Within a year of their arrival, the Mormons were able to harvest their first crop. It was not long after, however, that they learned that the indefinite land boundaries made their titles somewhat hazy. Some of the properties also were claimed by outsiders. In 1856-57, one of these, Jerome Benson, was not satisfied with debating the matter. West of modem Colton, he mounted an old brass cannon inside of an earthworks, rammed the can non full of gunpowder and rocks, and challenged all comers to dislodge him.
The loyalties around "Fort Benson" were drawn more along property lines than religious. Mormons and Gentiles alike sided with or against each other, and Benson found he was not alone.
Then in October 1857, the word came back that took 55 per cent of San Bernardino's Mormons home to Salt Lake City. Brigham Young directed that the saints were to "return to Zion . . . regardless of condition or circumstance" and face the threat of an invasion by the United States Army. Many prosperous farms were literally given away, sometimes in exchange for little more than a camping outfit. In at least one case, $40 bought a four-room house complete with furnishings, buggy, cloak and sack of sugar.
With the realization that some of this money and much of the Mormon savings were going to buy arms and ammunition to fight the Army, there was some talk of blockading Cajon Pass, but nothing was done.
Soldiers arrived in San Bernardino on December 27, 1858, when Colonel William Hoffman's "Mojave Expedition" camped near the original Cajon guard post, a site they knew as "Camp at Martin's Ranch." When Hoffman moved to the Mojave river to locate a fort site, and incidentally do battle with the Indians, his main body remained at San Bernardino.
The camp was moved closer to the town and designated Camp Banning by the time that Hoffman returned on January 19, 1859. Spectacular as the success had been against the Mojaves, "the Indians refuse to allow any white men in their domain," wrote Sergeant Eugene Bander, "and have more than once made raids quite near us to steal cattle from the neighborhood."
Camp Banning became Camp Prentiss in May 1859, after Hoffman returned to the Mojave, established Fort Mojave, and decisively whipped the tribe. Until the fall, supplies for the Mojave were forwarded from Camp Prentiss.
Californians took slowly to the populace of San Bernardino and at the start of the Civil War were quick to believe rumors of disloyalty there. Major, later Major General, James H. Carleton made a civilian-clothes spying trip in 1861. He reported that the town consisted of 1,000 Mormons "of a man whose character is such that he could not be tolerated in Utah," and 500 others, mainly "a good many Jew merchants . . . adroit horse thieves and unprincipled desperate men," plus some "few respectable Americans." He recommended that two or more companies of troops be stationed at San Bernardino because "all but the few respectable Americans would set us at 'defiance tomorrow if they dared to do so."
Carleton's less-than-objective report was believed. On August 26, 1861, Major W. Scott Ketchum reported that he was at a "Camp near San Bernardino" with the first of four companies of the 4th Infantry, his sudden arrival thwarting a plot to ambush him en route.
Ketchum asked that he be reinforced by two dragoon companies to prevent a rumored plan to attack his camp. The decision for such an attack had been reached at several secret meetings of pro-Southerners, according to the latest rumors.
Ninety dragoons were secretly rushed to Ketchum. To mislead disloyal observers at Los Angeles, the dragoons left their tents in place and moved a howitzer under cover in a wagon.
"The sudden and unexpected appearance of the dragoons had a very beneficial effect," Ketchum reported, especially on election day, September 4, 1861, when the "one or two displays of secession sentiments . . . were promptly checked by the show of a portion of the dragoons."
On October 20, Ketchum's 169 regular soldiers were relieved by three companies of California Cavalry, 272 men strong. Ketchum probably was pleased to leave San Bernardino-where his camp frequently was fired upon by snipers bidden in the surrounding bushes-and go to the battlefields of the East and ultimate rank as a major general of volunteers.
The California cavalrymen were horseless, a situation which gave Major Edward E. Eyre more worry than rebel activities. From the newly designed "Camp Carleton," Eyre wrote that his men had heard rumors that they were going to be turned into infantrymen.
"For God's sake do not leave me long with this only cause of danger banging over my head," Eyre appealed. "No exertions would be spared by myself, but should anything like a general mutiny occur, overboard I go, whether my fault or not." Eyre need not have worried; his men spent most of the war as cavalrymen in New Mexico and at San Elizario, Texas.
Troops stayed at San Bernardino until March 1862. They returned for five months in 1863, partly in response to reports that a leading secessionist recently released from prison was threatening to kill everyone responsible for his jailing. The previous year he had been arrested for hitting a soldier who protested a toast to "Jeff Davis' health."
Apparently all had cooled by October 1863, when the troopers were recalled and the newest San Bernardino post, Camp Morris, was closed. In the summer of 1865 an infantry company was sent to San Bernardino to check rumors of a secession plot, but by this time the war was over and the threat seemed anticlimactic.
Fort San Bernardino was sketched in 1852 by William R. Hutton. Ranger Horace Bell described it as "a stockade about a quarter of a mile square with two great gates leading into it. Inside they placed their dwellings, shops and stores. Every night the gates were barred and a sentry kept vigilant watch from the walls against surprise."

Whitehead; A Good Man Of The Field And A Warrior On It...
Whitehead Encourages Charter School Students
by Janella Newsome, Saints Community Relations
Saints defensive tackle Willie Whitehead recently talked to students at Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Charter School for Science and Technology in New Orleans about overcoming life's challenges.
"His speech was good I thought," said fifth-grader Malik Cordier who was one of 160 students attentively sitting in the cafeteria listening to the nine-year NFL veteran. "I believe I can make it to the NFL because of what Mr. Whitehead said which was don't believe the negative stuff people say about you. You can make it."
Whitehead spoke candidly about his struggle to make any NFL roster. His college football career started when he walked on the team at Auburn University in Alabama. Through hard work and perseverance, he earned a full athletic scholarship. After college, he looked forward to being drafted in the NFL, but it did not happen. Instead of giving up, he did the next best thing which was to play in NFL Europe and the CFL before landing a starting role with the New Orleans Saints.
"I want the kids to know that dreams do come true," said Whitehead. "I worked hard to get to this level. It's my responsibility to instill in the kids that in spite of circumstances they too can achieve their goals."
That is the mission statement of Whitehead's foundation named after his likeness. He said he simply wants to educate and empower children - especially young black males - through hard work and determination.
Domonique Encalad, age 13 and an eighth-grader, said she took Whitehead's message to heart. "No matter how hard it gets, continue trying," she said. "I'll remember this while going to school and hopefully college."
Whitehead encouraged students to post pictures and short and long term goals on their walls at home just like he does. He said it motivates him and serves as a constant reminder of what he wants to accomplish.
He ended his talk inviting students to a football camp hosted by The Willie Whitehead Foundation on June 16 at the NFL-YET Center and Boys and Girls Club of New Orleans.
"Whitehead ends his career with New Orleans having appeared in 105 games, with 43 starts. He joined the Saints in 1999 and like Lewis was an NFL success story who was undrafted and played in NFL Europe before getting an opportunity with the Saints. Whitehead posted 266 tackles (168 solo), 24.5 sacks, a pair of forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries in his career. In 2004, he was voted by his teammates the winner of the Ed Block Courage Award, an honor bestowed on a player who best exemplifies the principles of sportsmanship and courage. In 2003, Whitehead earned NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for his performance at Tampa Bay (Nov. 2) after recording five solo tackles, a career-high three sacks and a forced fumble. He suffered from dehydration and was admitted to a local hospital following the contest."
"I really will miss Lewis, but I think the team is going to really miss Big Willie. I think with Reggie and all those youngsters we have, it won't be to difficult to replace Lewis in the return game. Replacing Big Willie Whitehead is easier said than done. Whitehead was a major LEADER of the defense and especially the D-lineman, his versatility, determination, aggression, leadership, work ethic, and warrior mentality will be very difficult to replace. The Saints must be really impressed with Clancy."
Below is a look at our DE's and DT's on the roster, I just think we could have cut someone else besides Whitehead and his versatility, and leadership.

I think that they probably felt like he was going to be cut at some point so they might as well give him an early chance at landing with another team. I don't KNOW that. I'm just guessing. Whether that was their reasoning or not, it still gives him that opportunity.

I just hope the Falcons, Panthers, Eagles, Bears, Rams, 49ers, or the Bucs don't decide to pick him up. That's one of those moves to can hurt you down the road.

Lewis isn't a surprise, but Whitehead I didn't expect to see go. I wonder what the real reason is that they let him go. He didn't have a huge salary. Wasn't a trouble maker. Did what was asked of him. Seems like the exact kind of player a coach would love to have on his team. Certainly, they could've sent someone else away who would be less valuable. Some team's gonna be super happy to snap him up. I hate to see both of them go.

I was sad to see him go too, but it was inevitable. Seems like this could be a Bellamy situation though....we need someone down the road, put in the call and he's back for another few games
Still, we have to give the new, young folks a shot to see what they can do.

The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God. They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none who does good, no, not one.—Psalm 14:2-3
Man was made to worship God. God gave to man a harp and said, "Here above all the creatures that I have made and created I have given you the largest harp. I put more strings on your instrument and I have given you a wider range than I have given to any other creature. You can worship Me in a manner that no other creature can." And when he sinned man took that instrument and threw it down in the mud and there it has lain for centuries, rusted, broken, unstrung; and man, instead of playing a harp like the angels and seeking to worship God in all of his activities, is ego-centered and turns in on himself and sulks and swears and laughs and sings, but it's all without joy and without worship....
I say that the greatest tragedy in the world today is that God has made man in His image and made him to worship Him, made him to play the harp of worship before the face of God day and night, but he has failed God and dropped the harp. It lies voiceless at his feet. Worship: The Missing Jewel, 7-8.
"Lord, what a vivid picture! What a tragedy to see that harp lying in the mud. Do a great work today, Lord, to restore that harp to its rightful use. Amen."

Entertainer marionettes by Ralph Emory
February 1979: Marionettes by Ralph Emory, from left, of Charlie Chaplin, Liberace, Marlene Dietrich, Oliver Hardy and Stan Laurel.
These photos and story by Ken Lubas appeared in the March 1, 1979, Los Angeles Times. Lubas reported:
Pinocchio dangled from a hook about the marionette maker's workbench, but it wasn't Geppetto who was applying the brushstrokes of color to the puppet's face.
Ralph Emory, know professionally as Sky Highchief, was welding the brush.
The 56-year-old North Hollywood resident, known internationally for his marionettes and wax sculptures, is preparing his troupe of string puppets for an appearance in the 32nd annual International Folk Dance Festival on Saturday, March 3, at 2:30 and 8 p.m. at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion of the Music Center. …
Emery spends between 100 and 125 hours creating a puppet, whether an original or a likeness of a known personality.
He sculpts the head from Plasticine, an oily clay, makes a mold of it and casts it in hard rubber. Body parts are often created the same way, while some limbs are carved from pine or bass wood.
He also makes the puppet outfits, a skill with needle and thread he picked up while working on costumes and headpieces for shows like "Holiday on Ice" and "Ice Vogues."
Costumes of known personalities are patterned after originals worn either by entertainers in major productions or public figures.
Emory said he's a stickler for detail and noted that a gown created for a Barbra Streisand marionette required hundreds of sequins.
He said whatever profits are accrued through appearances are funneled back into creation of additional pieces. He already has several hundred.
His entertainer collection alone includes the marionette likenesses of Judy Garland, Carol Burnett, Mitzi Gaynor, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Pearl Bailey, Marlene Dietrich, Carol Channing, Phyllis Diller, Angela Lansbury and Gene Kelly.

Favourite Records of the Year. Selected by: Gridlink
Melt-Banana did not promise too much: with 'Longhena' Gridlink released the best grind record of the year, and maybe also the last act of their peaking carreer. Jon Chang not only found the time to tell us about his favourite records of this past year 2014 for the Heavy Pop advent calender, he's also giving out presents left and right: countless demos from all phases of Gridlink are on his Dropbox – and his Facebook page is always worth a look.
Swarrrm – 'Flower'
One of the most mature and complex records I heard was this title by Swarrrm. As I get older, there are certain records that affect me differently than they would have as a teen or twenty something. I love this album because, despite not understanding the lyrics, it really feels like an album about growing old without being cheesy.
Panopticon – 'Roads to the North'
I discovered this band and was put off initially by their folk songs. I'm still not in love with all of them but I think represents a whole new palette of feelings that can be expressed with black metal.
Godflesh – 'A World Lit Only By Fire'
Godflesh had not released much to hold my attention since Selfless. This album surprised me, nailing that balance of devastating heaviness with sadness and introspection that unique to Broadrick.
Ling Tosite Sigure – 'Enigmatic Feeling'
This is a love em or hate em band. I really like them. Their sound is totally unique and their energy is hard to deny.
….Though honestly I listened to a lot of older stuff this year like the last Maximum the Hormone, SOB, 1349, Megadeth, etc.

Many thanks to Jon Chang/Gridlink for the participation to the Heavy Pop Adventskalender 2014!

BOSTON — An "excessive heat warning" is in effect for Central and Eastern Massachusetts until Friday evening with the temperature in Boston hitting 102 degrees F by midday. Meanwhile, Mayor Thomas M. Menino has extended a heat advisory for Boston until Saturday.
The National Weather Service said the heat index could climb to 107 degrees before the day is out. Municipal and state officials are warning elderly people, in particular, to take great precautions by drinking plenty of water. Municipal workers are fanning out across Boston and other cities to check on the welfare of thousands of seniors.
On Thursday, 92-year-old Sylvia Bridgeman left Cambridge Senior center at the end of a scorching day marked by temperatures that match her age.
"It's really nice in there," Bridgeman said.
The folks who run this center surveyed the older patrons to make sure that they will also be protected from the heat at home, by supplying fans, and dispensing advice to neighbors to check up on the seniors next door.
Meanwhile, municipalities from Cape Cod to Western Massachusetts have opened cooling centers and extended pool hours in response to the July heat wave. But if you have to be in the heat, you also have to come up with other ways of staying cool.
"I like it like in the 80's. In the 90s, that's too hot. Feel like you're going to pass out," said Steve Latorella, a parking enforcement officer giving out tickets on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge.
But he says he has a sure fire way to stay safe on days like this.
"Usually you take shorter breaks, but you take more of them. You drink more water and you stay in the shade," Latorella said.
Not Mark Harnois. The carpenter and his buddy James Oliver say they just love it.
"It's part of summer. We wait all winter for it. Get outside. Hey it gets cold in the winter. It gets cold," Harnois said.
It's all a matter of perspective says Harnois; a perspective that is being tested in 100 degree weather.

Man dies from having sex toy lodged inside him after he was too embarrassed to seek help
A MAN died after a sex toy became lodged in his body and he was too ashamed to seek medical attention, an inquest heard.
Nigel Willis, 50, was unable to remove the sex aide and spent nearly a week lying on his sofa in agony at the home he shared with his mother in Forest Hill, London.
He was left weak and unable to move and was rushed to Lewisham Hospital after a friend eventually persuaded him to get help.
Southwark Crown Court heard how surgeons managed to remove the vibrator which had perforated his bowel.
Despite treatment Mr Willis' condition deteriorated and he became less responsive.
He died on February 7 this year from multi-organ failure, sepsis and a perforated bowel.
"This is a sad case of a man who died at 50 years of age"Assistant Coroner to inner-south London Sarah Ormand-Walshe
Assistant Coroner to inner-south London Sarah Ormand-Walshe said: "This is a sad case of a man who died at 50 years of age.
"He appears to have had a foreign object which has become stuck in the lower part of his bowel and had been there for a number of days when he was encouraged to go to hospital by his friends on 30 December 2013.
"The night it was discovered it looked like he had a perforated bowel."
Ms Ormand-Walshe added that the 50-year-old was left "fighting for his life" due to the insertion of the vibrator.
The coroner ruled Mr Willis died as a result of an accident.

Hello Peter, Shouldn't you at least try to define what you mean by better? (I don't mean scientifically, but in this particular case).
The preview of the image is a clunky clipped file. If you convert this to sRGB with standard relcol, then you simply get what you see (assuming of course that your monitor behaves somewhere in the sRGB ballpark).
And if you are going to choose some contorted way of converting to sRGB using multiple profiles, might I suggest trying a decent Epson profile as an intermediate space? This will allow you to convert Perceptually to a smaller space, including hue constancy, and allows for the greatest correlation between what you see and what you print, no?
Is there a chance that you could make the Color Clipping algorithm available as a Script or Action. Id be happy to give it a try on a broader basis.
Well, I have been busy transitioning to XCode & intel. I am still in the middle of it. Even so, here is a link to the Mac OS X CMM that is supposed to do this:Color Clipping CMM
P.S.: In case that Dennis is still around here. Ive forwarded his question about how to create a saturation mask to the Adobe forum, and got interesting advice so far.
I can't be bothered with numerous layers which can astronomically add to the file size. Keep it simple is my motto .[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66635\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
