ADDISON COUNTY — Richard Moffi, fuel program chief for the state of Vermont, has grown accustomed to seeing Congress and the Oval Office haggle over funding for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP).
Negotiators have historically started at a low number but eventually agreed on a LIHEAP figure that was at least equal to, or greater, than the year before so that qualifying citizens in cold parts of the country could get the fuel subsidies they needed to stay warm during the winter.
VERGENNES — A Hartford, Conn., technology company that estimates its 2011 sales will total around $58 billion struck a deal in late September to purchase Goodrich Corp., including its Vergennes plant.
United Technologies Corp. (UTC) — which makes jet engines, helicopters, elevators and other aerospace and building components — plans on closing the $16.4 billion purchase, plus $1.9 billion in assumed debt, in mid-2012, said Goodrich spokesman Andrew Martin on Thursday.
VERGENNES — By a chance of fate, two New York artists happened upon Creative Space Gallery on Vergennes' Main Street last Saturday, and left with unexpectedly fierce encouragement and inspiration for their own work.
"I think that the work in this gallery is some of the most innovative that I've seen," said one of the artists, Jill Luigs of Oswego, N.Y.

SALISBURY — Salisbury residents next March will be asked to approve a plan to preserve their town hall to make it more weather-tight, sturdy and usable into the future.
STARKSBORO — Starksboro selectmen are skeptical about U.S. Census results that show a population drop in their town, and they plan to contact Census officials to question the data.
According to the 2010 Census, Starksboro's population is 1,787, down 121 from the 2000 number of 1,898.
But according to Town Clerk Cheryl Estey, the town's voter checklist increased by 257 in the same decade, from 986 to 1,243.
"I was actually flabbergasted when I saw the (Census) numbers," Estey said.
BRISTOL — The Mount Abraham Union High School girls' soccer team put the wraps on the Eagles' best season in years on Friday, but it wasn't easy.
The Eagles needed overtime to defeat stubborn visiting Middlebury, 1-0, on a long-range bomb by junior Evy Jacobs; finish their regular season at 9-3-2; and, critically, nail down the No. 4 seed for the Division II playoffs — a loss would have dropped them to No. 5.
LINCOLN — Fifth- and sixth-graders from Lincoln Community School had to leave their classrooms last week when the two rooms closed for renovations. But the town of Lincoln hasn't left its youngsters without a place to learn.

Team USA continues rolling | Wade, Bulls a convenient fit | Report: Monty Williams to return to sideline with Spurs
No. 1: Team USA continues rolling — With the Olympics now a week away, Team USA continued their exhibition schedule last night in Chicago, where they squared off against Venezuela. As our own Steve Aschburner writes, Team USA managed to overcome poor shooting to still coast to an easy 80-45 win…
A miserable shooting night by both teams kept highlights to a minimum, but the USA Basketball men's national team beat Venezuela 80-45 Friday night at United Center.
A sellout crowd eager to see both the Chicago Bulls' Olympic representative, Jimmy Butler, and newest acquisition, Dwyane Wade — watching from the front row after his Bulls introductory news conference earlier in the day — did most of its noise-making during introductions.
At least, that's how it went until DeAndre Jordan's alley-oop throwdown of a pass from Kevin Durant gave them something to roar about, putting Team USA up 62-37 with 6:47 left. Then Butler threw one down with 1:47 left to satisfy the locals.
Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson scored 13 points each for Team USA.
Heading into that final quarter, though, the teams had combined to shoot 29-of-104 (27.9 percent). The Venezuela team was pesky enough defensively to disrupt Team USA's offense, which had purred along shooting 49.8 percent in its first three tuneups.
The Americans won those games — the opener against Argentina, followed by two against China — by an average of 45.3 points, outrebounding those opponents by an average of 21.0. By halftime Friday, they were on pace in both those categories — leading by 18, with a 37-12 edge on the boards — but their scoring was way down due to abysmal shooting.
Their 36 points through two quarters came the hard way: 12-of-40 on field-goal attempts, including 2-of-18 on 3-pointers. The NBA stars even missed six of their 16 free throws.
The Venezuelans hung tough deep into the first quarter, trailing 13-12, before USA ran off the game's next 12 points across the quarter break. Venezuela's John Cox, who led all scorers with 12 points in the half, got his crew as close as 28-18 before Team USA closed the half with eight unanswered points.
No. 2: Wade, Bulls a convenient fit — One of the more surprising signings of the NBA free agency period was Dwyane Wade leaving the only team he had ever played for, the Miami Heat, in order to sign with his hometown Chicago Bulls. As our own Steve Aschburner writes, Wade met with the media in Chicago on Friday, and Wade said that this was not about money as much as it was a return to where he watched the Bulls play as a kid…
Wade was introduced Friday — wait, that's the wrong word for one of the NBA's most familiar faces, so let's say reacquainted with Chicago media at a news conference at the Bulls downtown practice facility. The theme of the 45-minute "presser" was hometown-kid-returns, and strictly speaking, there's no denying the truth of that. Wade was born in Chicago, grew up in the south suburb of Robbins, and went to Richards H.S. in neighboring Oak Lawn.
But he left Chicagoland after graduating to attend Marquette University in Milwaukee. After leading that school to the Final Four, the 6-foot-4 guard was drafted fifth overall in 2003 by Miami. And over the past 13 years, Wade established himself as the face, heart and soul of the Heat, stacking up 12 All-Star appearances alongside those three Larry O'Brien trophies.
Because Wade's Miami teams were in direct conflict with the Bulls for much of his career, his roots mattered less to the fans at United Center than the city and logos on his uniform. He routinely was booed and, more than once, rather awkwardly, he was cheered when he fell or was knocked to the floor and it appeared he might be hurt too badly to continue. Wade even let on how that stung, coming in the building where he once had dreamed of playing and winning.
That was the dream-come-true of which he spoke Friday.
"I'm a Chicago guy, Chicago kid. I grew up here," Wade said, before a fleet of cameras, a gang of reporters and lots of family. "I remember sitting on the floor when I could sit Indian-style and watching the Chicago Bulls win their first championship. I was 9 years old.
"We had this little-bitty TV — it's about as big as an iPhone now — I remember looking at it and saying, 'That's what I want to do, that's what I want to be. I want to be a champion and that's who I want to do it with.' My dream of becoming an NBA player started here in my hometown."
No one wants to be overly cynical, so if Wade really is scratching an itch — and maybe extending his brand to another major market for the growing conglomerate that he and many of his peers have become — by playing next season in Chicago, good for him.
That doesn't paper over suspicions, though, that he signed with the Bulls out of spite when the Heat and president Pat Riley didn't make him a higher priority when free agency opened July 1. Or that the Bulls had ulterior motives in their own right besides landing a player whom they'd had in their sights twice before.
Wade tamped down a few questions Friday about the breakdown in his negotiations with the Heat. Reminded that Riley later expressed — sincerely or not — some regrets that he hadn't been more involved in the talks, Wade said he had been fine hashing out particulars with owner Mickey Arison and son Nick.
"This year, the direction and focus for that organization in Miami — which I have nothing but respect for and love for — was a little different than it has been in years past," Wade said. "My focus and direction was a little different than it's been in years past. … I had a contract offer in Miami I could have took. I decided not to take it. It was my decision to be selfish and live out a dream of mine."
"So let's clear up the notion that Pat Riley orchestrated me getting out of Miami because he didn't offer me the money I wanted," Wade added. "This was not a money deal for me."
No. 3: Report: Monty Williams to return to sideline with Spurs — After his head coaching gig ended with the New Orleans Pelicans, last summer Monty Williams joined the Oklahoma City Thunder as their lead assistant coach. But tragedy struck midway through the season, when Williams' wife was killed in a traffic accident. Williams took off the rest of the season to focus on their five children, but he recently returned to work with USA Basketball, and as ESPN's Marc Stein writes, Williams is expected to return to the NBA next season as an assistant for Gregg Popovich and the Spurs.
Sources told ESPN that Williams — who left the Oklahoma City Thunder's bench in February after the tragic death of his wife, Ingrid — has been urged by Spurs coach Gregg Popovich to take as much of a role with the organization as he feels comfortable for the 2016-17 campaign.
The specifics of what role Williams would fill and how much time he could commit have not yet been determined, but sources say San Antonio has opened the door to either a coaching and player-development role or a front-office position (or a hybrid), depending on what he prefers.
One source close to Williams told ESPN that the 44-year-old "absolutely" intends to be a head coach in the league again after his expected stint with the Spurs. The source also said numerous teams, including Oklahoma City, have made similar offers to Williams for next season.
Williams' in-laws live in San Antonio and have been assisting him with the couple's five children in the wake of Ingrid Williams' death after a Feb. 9 collision in which a car crossed over onto the wrong side of the road and struck her vehicle head-on.
The children also have been traveling with Williams during Team USA's domestic stops on the road to the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The team has played exhibition games in Las Vegas; Los Angeles; Oakland, California; and Chicago entering the final warm-up game in Houston against Nigeria on Monday.
The start of USA Basketball's preparations for the Rio Olympics on July 18 in Las Vegas marked Williams' return to the sport after five months away in the wake of the accident. In a SportsCenter interview with Hannah Storm that aired Friday, Williams said he's "so juiced up and ready to get back into it again."
"I've only had peace about a few things," Williams told Storm. "I knew I had to take care of my kids and stop coaching, but also knew that I wanted to be a part of USA Basketball, because it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing.
"I can't wait to get back and start coaching. I wouldn't even think that if I didn't know, one, my wife would want me to. My kids talk about it all the time. And there have been some things that have happened in my life lately that have allowed me to get that back."
Last season was Williams' first as the lead assistant in Oklahoma City under Thunder coach Billy Donovan. Williams previously posted a record of 173-221 in five seasons as head coach of the New Orleans Pelicans. After the Thunder's seven-game exit to Golden State in the Western Conference finals this postseason, Donovan confirmed that Williams would not be returning to the Thunder bench.
Williams got his start in coaching under Popovich as a Spurs intern in 2004-05 before making his debut as an assistant coach with the Portland Trail Blazers.
Reflecting on the accident that claimed his wife's life, Williams told Storm, "I got the call that nobody wants to get. And I knew when I was talking to my daughter, because she answered the phone, I knew at that moment that my life was going to change. I can't explain it, but I knew that everything was going to be different. I didn't know what was going on at the hospital; I just knew that my life was going to change. I don't know why, I can't explain it. I just felt that in my heart like this phone call was different.
"It's one of those things you never get rid of. You never forget where you were. You never forget what you were doing. It's the phone call you don't want anybody to ever get. Certainly [it] could've broken me to the point of quitting. But God and his graciousness has given me the strength and good people to help us go forward."

Drugs & Medications - arformoterol inhalation
arformoterol inhalation
Common Brand Name(s): Brovana
arformoterol inhalation Warnings
Rarely, asthma patients using long-acting inhaled beta agonists (such as salmeterol) have had serious (sometimes fatal) asthma-related breathing problems. Because arformoterol is similar to salmeterol, it may also cause these problems. Therefore, patients with asthma should only be prescribed this drug if one long-term medication (such as inhaled corticosteroids) does not control breathing problems or if more than one long-term medication is clearly needed to control breathing problems. Arformoterol must not be used alone to treat asthma. Discuss the risks and benefits of treatment with this medication with your doctor.
arformoterol inhalation Uses
Arformoterol is used as a long-term (maintenance) treatment to prevent and decrease wheezing and shortness of breath caused by breathing problems (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema). Arformoterol belongs to a class of drugs known as bronchodilators. It works in the airways by opening breathing passages and relaxing muscles. Controlling symptoms of breathing problems can decrease time lost from work or school.
This medication does not work right away and should not be used for sudden attacks of breathing trouble. Your doctor must prescribe a quick-relief medicine/inhaler (such as albuterol, also known as salbutamol) for sudden shortness of breath while you are using arformoterol. You should always have a quick-relief inhaler with you.
Arformoterol is usually used in combination with other medications (such as inhaled corticosteroids). However, it should not be used with similar long-acting inhaled beta agonists (such as formoterol, salmeterol) since this may increase your risk for side effects.How to use arformoterol inhalation
Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start using this medication and each time you get a refill. This medication is used with a special machine called a nebulizer that changes the solution to a fine mist that you inhale. Learn how to prepare the solution and use the nebulizer properly. If a child is using this medication, a parent or other responsible adult may need to help the child use the nebulizer properly. If you have any questions, ask your doctor, pharmacist, or respiratory therapist.
This product should be clear and colorless. Before using, check this product visually for particles or discoloration. If either is present, do not use the liquid.
Using the nebulizer, inhale this medication into your lungs as directed by your doctor, usually 2 times a day (once in the morning and once in the evening). The 2 doses should be about 12 hours apart. Each treatment usually takes about 5 to 10 minutes. Use this medication only through a nebulizer. Do not swallow or inject the solution. Do not mix with other medicines in the nebulizer. To prevent infections, clean the nebulizer and mouthpiece/face mask according to the manufacturer's directions.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same times each day.
The dosage is based on your medical condition, age, and response to treatment. Do not use more of this medication or use it more often than prescribed since this may cause serious side effects. Do not use more than 30 micrograms of arformoterol a day.
If you have been using a quick-relief inhaler (albuterol, salbutamol) on a regular daily schedule (such as 4 times daily), your doctor will direct you to stop this schedule and only use the quick-relief inhaler as needed for sudden shortness of breath. Consult your doctor for details.
Learn which of your inhalers/medications you should use every day and which you should use if your breathing suddenly worsens (quick-relief drugs). Ask your doctor ahead of time what you should do if you have new or worsening cough or shortness of breath, wheezing, increased sputum, worsening peak flow meter readings, waking up at night with trouble breathing, if you use your quick-relief inhaler more often (more than 2 days a week), or if your quick-relief inhaler does not seem to be working well. Learn when you can treat sudden breathing problems by yourself and when you must get medical help right away.
Tell your doctor if your symptoms do not improve or if they worsen.
arformoterol inhalation Side Effects
Nervousness, dizziness, shaking (tremor), headache, nausea, dry mouth, or trouble sleeping may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
This medication may raise your blood pressure. Check your blood pressure regularly and tell your doctor if the results are high.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: fast/pounding/irregular heartbeat, muscle cramps/weakness, increased thirst/urination.
Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: chest pain, rapid breathing, confusion, severe dizziness, fainting.
Rarely, this medication has caused severe (possibly fatal), sudden worsening of breathing problems (paradoxical bronchospasm). If you have trouble breathing or sudden wheezing, use your quick-relief inhaler and get medical help right away.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
In the US -
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.

arformoterol inhalation Precautions
Before using arformoterol, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to formoterol; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: diabetes, heart problems (such as irregular heartbeat, angina, previous heart attack), high blood pressure, liver problems, seizures, overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), swelling of an artery (aneurysm), a certain tumor of the adrenal gland (pheochromocytoma).
Arformoterol may cause a condition that affects the heart rhythm (QT prolongation). QT prolongation can rarely cause serious (rarely fatal) fast/irregular heartbeat and other symptoms (such as severe dizziness, fainting) that need medical attention right away.
The risk of QT prolongation may be increased if you have certain medical conditions or are taking other drugs that may cause QT prolongation. Before using arformoterol, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all the drugs you take and if you have any of the following conditions: certain heart problems (heart failure, slow heartbeat, QT prolongation in the EKG), family history of certain heart problems (QT prolongation in the EKG, sudden cardiac death).
Low levels of potassium or magnesium in the blood may also increase your risk of QT prolongation. This risk may increase if you use certain drugs (such as diuretics/"water pills") or if you have conditions such as severe sweating, diarrhea, or vomiting. Talk to your doctor about using arformoterol safely.
This drug may make you dizzy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires alertness until you are sure you can perform such activities safely. Limit alcoholic beverages.
Before having surgery, tell your doctor or dentist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).
Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially QT prolongation (see above).
During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.
It is unknown if this drug passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
arformoterol inhalation Interactions
See also Uses section.
Drug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions. Keep a list of all the products you use (including prescription/nonprescription drugs and herbal products) and share it with your doctor and pharmacist. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicines without your doctor's approval.
arformoterol inhalation Overdose

US residents can call their local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222. Canada residents can call a provincial poison control center. Symptoms of overdose may include: chest pain, fast/irregular heartbeat, severe dizziness, fainting.NOTES:
Do not share this medication with others.
Laboratory and/or medical tests (such as blood pressure, heart rate, EKG) may be performed periodically to monitor your progress or check for side effects. Consult your doctor for more details.
Avoid allergens/irritants that can worsen breathing problems, such as smoke, pollen, pet dander, dust, or molds.
Learn to use a peak flow meter, use it daily, and promptly report worsening breathing problems (such as readings in the yellow/red range, increased use of quick-relief inhalers).
Because the flu virus can worsen breathing problems, ask your doctor or pharmacist if you should have a flu shot every year.MISSED DOSE:

"Freud's Couch, Scott's Buttocks, Bronte's Grave" (University of Chicago Press) by Simon Goldhill. Nov. 15
The 19th century was the great age of literary tourism, when besotted readers flocked to the homes of their literary crushes. Stratford-upon-Avon went from a sleepy village to a drama fan's Disneyland; the lonely moors over which Charlotte and Emily Bronte once roved began to lure the multitudes. Goldhill, classics professor at the University of Cambridge and author of the marvelous polemic "Love, Sex, and Tragedy: How the Ancient World Shapes Our Lives" (2004), travels to these spots of worship -- and does so, as much as possible, using Victorian-era transport.

2012 Alfa Romeo Mito Twinair review
* New Alfa Romeo Mito Twinair driven * Averages 67.3mpg; CO2 output of 98g/km * On sale now, priced from 14,150...
The Alfa Romeo Mito Twinair is a new, ultra-efficient petrol version of the Italian brand's supermini.
Emitting just 98g/km of CO2, it's the only premium-badged supermini that qualifies for the lowest (10%) company car tax band for non-electric cars. This makes it significantly cheaper to run than the 13% Audi A1 1.6 TDI and Mini One D.
The new Mito Twinair is exempt from road tax and the London Congestion Charge, and has claimed average economy of 67.3mpg.
Whats the 2012 Alfa Romeo Mito Twinair like to drive?
The 0.9-litre two-cylinder petrol engine is already available in a number of other Fiat Group models, including the Fiat 500 and Chrysler Ypsilon.
Weve criticised its poor refinement in these cars, and in our True MPG tests its fallen unacceptably short of its official average economy. Fortunately, the engine has been updated for the Mito.
Alfa Romeo has fitted a new dual-mass flywheel to counter vibration. This has helped to reduce the amount of shudder you feel in the cabin when accelerating.
There's still a bit of buzz through the pedals, and the engine is quite noisy compared with four-cylinder petrols. However, the sewing machine-style thrum isn't unpleasant, and it virtually disappears once you're up to cruising speed.
Alfa's DNA system lets you change the weighting of the steering
The Mito Twinair also comes with a revamped version of Alfa's DNA system. Put this in 'Dynamic' mode and you get the engines full 84bhp and 107lb ft of torque, but the power delivery is fairly abrupt. 'Natural' reduces power and torque to 77bhp and 81lb ft, but gives a smoother delivery and cuts noise and vibration. This reduced power only becomes an issue when youre overtaking at relatively high speeds.
Alfa says that keeping the car in Natural mode also makes it easier to achieve good fuel economy figures. We'll be putting that claim to the test soon.
Sadly, most of the Mito's less desirable traits remain. It neither steers nor rides with the precision and composure you expect of a sporty supermini. In fact, the ride is downright hard. A combination of quick steering and sloppy body control makes the car feel nervous on twisty country lanes.
The Mito's ride and handling are as disappointing as ever
You have to put up with a lot of wind and road noise at motorway speeds, too.
Whats the 2012 Alfa Romeo Mito Twinair like inside?
As in other Mitos, the seats are easily adjusted, but the driving position is awkward and there isn't much support for your back.
To make matters worse, visibility is restricted due to the small rear window, and some of the dashboard controls are fiddly.
Some of the controls are fiddly, but the dashboard looks good
Three-door superminis dont have to be the last word in practicality, but some rivals including the Audi A1 are better in this respect.
The Alfas rear seats are small and difficult to access, and while the boot is a decent size at 270 litres, the high load lip makes it hard to drop in heavy items.
At least the design of the cabin is fairly smart and classy looking.
The Twinair is available in two trims: Sprint and Distinctive. Sprint models come with 16-inch alloys, air-con, Bluetooth, a USB socket and cruise control, while Distinctive adds larger wheels, lumbar support for the drivers seat, rear parking sensors and various aesthetic add-ons.
Should I buy one?
The 2012 Mito Twinair doesn't make any sense for private buyers, because the 1.3-litre diesel model qualifies for the same tax breaks, costs just 585 more and is much easier on fuel you'll need to do only around 8000 miles before it pays for itself.
It's as a company car that the Twinair starts to look compelling. However, we'd still go elsewhere if you can afford to pay slightly more in tax, because the A1 1.6 TDI and Mini One D are much better to drive.

Matt Flynn's greatest success in the NFL came when he filled in for Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay. He may get another chance to do that.
The Packers plan to bring Flynn in for a workout, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
That indicates some level of interest in Flynn from the Packers' brass, but the reality is if they thought he could step in immediately and play better than Seneca Wallace, Flynn would already be a Packer. Flynn passed through waivers unclaimed on Tuesday, the day after Rodgers broke his collarbone, so the Packers (and 31 other teams) have already passed on the opportunity to bring him in.
There have been reports that the Packers think Flynn may have some injury to his throwing arm, and it's possible that they'll sign him if he can show in a workout that there are no injury concerns. Still, the Packers say they have confidence in Wallace as the starter and Scott Tolzien as the backup until Rodgers can return. A workout is probably all Flynn is going to get in Green Bay.

From the company that brought us the Miraclesuit line of bathing suits--look ten pounds lighter in ten seconds--comes Miraclebody Shapewear. This modern figure-control apparel is primarily in the form of jeans and jeggings, with some shaping tops as well. The patented Miratex fabric is at the heart of the control panels which are designed to flatten the tummy. Miraclebody's unique spandex blend provides all-over control for hips and thighs as well.
Jeans and jeggings are thoughtfully designed in a dark blue denim wash which helps hide imperfections. There are others 'jeans' touches including en embroidered waistband and rivets and classical jeans pockets. The Miraclebody pull-on denim leggings quickly became a breakout hit. With the contrast stitching of classic jeans and the indigo denim fabric, are they skinny jeans or leggings? They're both and more. They have all the styling of outwear with Miraclebody's patented shaping built in. Customers rave about the leggings, saying they fit perfectly, are super comfortable and look like jeans rather than ordinary leggings.
Miraclebody shapewear pieces also provide some uplift for the rear, creating smooth curves. The wide waistband won't roll or feel constricted and jeggings sit flat against your body without bunching. The brand offers a good variety of styles including pull-on leggings, straight leg jeans, jeggings, boot cut jeans, skinny jeans and a knee-length denim skirt. The skirt has twice as much spandex as a typical denim skirt, but no one will know that but you. The Skinny Minnie jeans are Miraclebody's interpretation of the ever-popular skinny leg jeans. This can sometimes be a hard style to wear without a perfect figure. Now, with the hidden firm control of these skinny jeans, women of all sizes can look great in this style.
Miraclebody shaping tops also get high marks for clever, attractive design and the shaping we expect from this brand. The outer layer has a fly-away silhouette with a scoop neck, flattering drape and 3/4 sleeves. The magic happens underneath with the hidden built-in shaping tank with shaping panels and seaming under the bust for light support. Customers tell us the tops are extremely comfortable and flattering. Tops range in size from small through extra-large and are offered in black and white.
Miraclesuit has been in the business of helping women look their best since 1937. They've brought those generations of experience along with a mission of innovation to this new Miraclebody shapewear line. Their slogan, "Look 10 pounds lighter in 10 seconds," --made famous with their swimwear line--applies equally to the Miraclebody jeans and tops. It's just like going down one or two sizes and that's a lot of shaping! Between the proprietary fabrics and designs meant to control, shape, lift and smooth, women can skip the extra layer and get all of the shaping they need in these easy-to-wear outerwear pieces.

An adenovirus vectored mucosal adjuvant augments protection of mice immunized intranasally with an adenovirus-vectored foot-and-mouth disease virus subunit vaccine. Vaccine. 313(18):2302-2309.
Interpretive Summary: Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is an antigenically variable virus consisting of 7 serotypes and multiple subtypes and causes an economically devastating disease of cloven-hoofed animals. FMDV is a mucosal pathogen that enters the animal via the respiratory route. Vaccines produced by chemical inactivation of virus and a novel subunit vaccine which contains the coding region for the viral structural proteins but does not contain infectious FMDV are available. This subunit vaccine is delivered by a replication-defective human adenovirus (Ad5-FMD). Although both vaccines are effective in protecting animals neither induces mucosal immunity and therefore virus replication occurs at the initial site of FMDV infection. To address this limitation we cloned various mucosal adjuvants into the Ad5 vector. Mice vaccinated with the Ad5-FMD vaccine and the Ad5-adjuvant vector survived challenge with a lethal dose of FMDV and did not develop viremia, while mice given only the Ad5-FMD vaccine did not survive. These results suggest that induction of mucosal immunity may enhance the protective effect of an FMD vaccine by blocking virus replication at the initial site of infection.
Technical Abstract: Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a highly contagious pathogen that causes severe morbidity and economic losses to the livestock industry in many countries. The oral and respiratory mucosae are the main ports of entry of FMDV, so the stimulation of local immunity in these tissues may help prevent initial infection and viral spread. E. coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) has been described as one of the few molecules that has adjuvant activity at mucosal surfaces. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of replication-defective adenovirus 5 (Ad5) vectors encoding either of two LT-based mucosal adjuvants, LTB and LTR72. These vectored adjuvants were delivered intranasally to mice concurrent with an Ad5-FMDV vaccine (Ad5-A24) to assess their ability to augment mucosal and systemic humoral immune responses to Ad5-A24 and protection against FMDV. Mice receiving Ad5-A24 plus Ad5-LTR72 had higher levels of mucosal and systemic neutralizing antibodies than those receiving Ad5-A24 alone or Ad5-A24 plus Ad5-LTB. This group also demonstrated 100% survival after intradermal challenge with a lethal dose of homologous FMDV serotype A24. These results suggest that Ad5-LTR72 could be used as an important tool to enhance mucosal and systemic immunity against FMDV and potentially other pathogens with a common entry pathway.

The Knight's Tour 2
after Martin Gardner
What is the longest possible route without
self-crossings for the chess knight to travel on the 6x6 board shown in
Figure 1?
To see what the route "without self-crossings" means, let's show any route
of the knight by drawing on the board a broken line that will join the
centers of the successive cells visited by the knight. The examples of
such lines for a single move of the knight are shown in Figure 2.
for a 4x4 board such a route without self-crossing may be shown as that in
the diagram on the right. This 5-move route is the longest possible for
this small board; not unique, though.
There is a 16-move route for a 6x6 board. Try to find it.
After that try to improve this route adding to it one more move. This new
17-move route makes the longest possible tour of the chess knight without
self-crossing for a 6x6 board. It's unique, and hard to find. Can you
discover it?
To practice you may use the 6x6 board from our special
Print 'n' Play PDF Version and a chess knight (or
a simple coin).

GSA Testing Innovative Sustainable Technologies and Practices
April 21, 2011
Green Proving Ground program to test emerging technologies in federal buildings.
WASHINGTON – GSA announced today that it will test and evaluate 16 emerging sustainable building technologies and practices in select federal facilities under its Green Proving Ground Program. Testing will determine the most effective technologies that may then be replicated on a wider-scale basis throughout the GSA inventory, with the goal of transforming markets for these technologies.
"GSA is leading the way in sustainable design and construction operations," GSA Administrator Martha N. Johnson said. "By using our real estate portfolio as a test bed for new technologies, we can then provide further innovation in energy-efficiency standards and implement best practices that will lead the market."
The technologies selected were from a pool of approximately 140 projects across GSA's national portfolio that are currently implementing innovative or underutilized sustainable building technologies. The 16 technologies and practices were selected for evaluation because they have the greatest potential to meet GSA's sustainability goals.

Power from motion and vibrations
Forget about batteries. The ability to harness electricity from tiny vibrations could power a new generation of electronic devices.
The Trans-Alaska Pipeline System, which traverses hundreds of miles of some of the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, must be monitored almost constantly for potential problems like corrosion or cracking. Humans do some of this work — surveying the pipeline from the air and inspecting it more closely in the areas that can be easily accessed by roads — but the bulk of it is done by mechanical "pigs," sensor-laden robots that travel inside the pipeline looking for flaws.
A simpler process might involve outfitting remote stretches of the pipeline with sensors that would automatically radio a warning of impending problems. But the need to periodically change the batteries on such sensors lessens the appeal of that option. For electronic devices in remote or inaccessible situations like this, including environmental or mechanical monitoring sensors as well as some kinds of biomedical monitors, it can be inconvenient or even impossible to replace batteries.
But what if batteries weren't necessary?
Systems that could provide power for such sensors just by harvesting the normal vibrations of the pipeline (or bridges or industrial machinery and so on), eliminating or reducing the need for a battery, are being developed by Anantha Chandrakasan, MIT's Joseph F. and Nancy P. Keithley professor of electrical engineering and director of the MIT Microsystems Technology Laboratories, and his former student Yogesh Ramadass SM '06, PhD '09.
They have been working for years on the development of ways to harness small amounts of power from ambient vibrations. A paper describing their latest work on a new control circuit for such systems, which can quadruple the amount of power they produce, appeared last month in the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits.
Big steps toward tiny power
There are a number of different approaches to harnessing vibrational energy, some using magnetic or electric fields. But the new control circuit Ramadass and Chandrakasan developed is designed to work with piezoelectric systems — ones that use voltage generated by stress in a crystalline material, such as lead-zirconate-titanate.
It has been known for well over a century that some materials, including some crystals and ceramics, will produce an electrical current when subjected to stress by squeezing or bending. To harness the energy of motion or vibration, such a material is coupled to a spring, pendulum or other mechanism that converts the motion into pressure.
Chandrakasan and Ramadass envision applications in such things as implantable medical diagnostic or treatment devices that could be powered indefinitely by the person's own natural movements, or distributed sensors to monitor structural elements on bridges or the pressure in truck tires and transmit the data to a central receiver, powered by the vibrations of ordinary traffic.
Existing devices for harvesting energy from vibrations tend to be tuned to very specific frequencies, Chandrakasan says, but "in many practical applications, we need something more general. That's still a technical question to be addressed."
For now, such systems can't deliver enough power to run consumer devices such as cell phones, Ramadass explains. "The power levels for a cell phone are way up from what we can generate now" from a person's natural movements, he says, although some simpler devices, such as an mp3 music player, might be within the available range. He is currently working with semiconductor leader Texas Instruments to develop commercial applications of ultra-low power systems and solutions.
David Lamb, chief operating officer of Camgian Microsystems, a company that produces a variety of low-power, lightweight semiconductor chips, says enabling new, low-power distributed sensor and security systems will depend on improving the efficiency of energy-harvesting techniques, including the power-producing system as well as control and storage systems. Because low-power systems are still a relatively new area of research, he says, "typical power management approaches are not well suited to energy harvesters, and there are still a lot of unsolved challenges," But devices such as the company's remote surveillance system are designed to operate on very low power, he says, and "if efficient interface and control circuits can be developed, this microsystem can be continuously powered by energy harvesting."
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has provided support for this research, which also holds promise for monitoring military equipment in remote locations.
The team has also been developing systems to derive small amounts of power from temperature differences (as described in part one of this series), and Chandrakasan says that in the future, some applications might make use of systems that combine both the heat- and vibration-harvesting devices to produce more power, or to work in situations where these energy sources are variable and one or the other might not always be available.
Some parts of such a system, such as the electronic control circuits and transmitters for relaying the collected data, could be connected to both the heat and vibration generating systems (as well as additional sources of power, such as a solar cell), Ramadass says. "You could have one set of electronics that interfaces" with multiple inputs, he says.
For the future, the researchers are working on ways to improve the integration of the various components, and on making the systems as versatile as possible. "We want to make them adaptable over a broad range" of operating conditions, Chandrakasan says. In addition, they are working on improving the devices' overall efficiency. "We want to get to the maximum theoretically possible achievable energy," Ramadass says.

1. Support of the walls of the veins:
Vascular tonics will help the tissues involved regain tone and strength. The bio-flavonoid and flavonoid rich herbs are especially useful here, although it is not usually a quick process.
Circulatory stimulants help the process of venous return into the trunk of the body.
Astringents can help the work of the vascular tonics. The astringency is best applied externally.
Anti-inflammatories will ease the localized inflammation and ease discomfort.
Emollient/Demulcents used externally will lessen localized discomfort.
System support
The focus of tonic support should be on the cardiovascular system but beyond that a range of factors can be addresses depending upon the individuals situation. Consider musculo/skeletal and connective tissue tonics if the varicosity is part of a picture with rheumatic problems. If pregnancy is involved then the appropriate uterine tonic would be indicated. Etc. Etc..
Specific Remedies
Flavonoid rich plants have a major role to play in toning up these vessels. Traditionally, in Europe, Horse Chestnut has been considered an effective specific.
One possible prescription:
Resting with the legs higher than the head for at least 10 minutes every day will help both long-term and also decrease any immediate discomfort. This maybe achieved through the inverted postures of yoga, a slant-board, or simply lying on the floor with the legs and feet supported by a chair. The foot of the bed can be elevated between 6-12 inches, thus facilitating drainage at night. Gentle exercise is helpful. Walking, and gentle stretching exercises are suitable, but jogging, skipping, aerobics and other exercises which involve repeated impact can do more harm than good. However, such exercise would be so uncomfortable for anybody with varicose veins that they would be unlikely to try it for more than a very short time.
Aroma therapy can help improve the general tone of the veins when used in abroad holistic context. Cypress oil has a good reputation for strengthening the veins in the legs. It can be used as a bath oil and applied very gently over the area of the affected veins. Massage can be used above the affected area of the vein but must never be used below the varicosity, as this will increase the pressure in the vein. Cypress oil can either be blended in a carrier oil at 3% or made up in a cream.

DPS Urges Texans to Report Suspicious Activities Through State Website
AUSTIN, May 20, 2013 – The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) encourages residents to report suspicious behaviors that might indicate criminal or terrorist activity to the department's iWATCH website at www.iwatchtx.org. Created as a partnership between communities and law enforcement, iWATCH is a DPS website where citizen-sourced information is collected in an effort to help thwart illegal and terroristic endeavors.
"DPS works with federal, state and local law enforcement entities every day to combat crime and terrorism within Texas and beyond. With the help of the public, we can be even more successful in this pursuit," said DPS Director Steven McCraw. "Residents can join our crime-fighting efforts – and possibly save lives – by remaining vigilant and promptly reporting to iWATCH any suspicious or criminal activities they might witness."
Concerned citizens can visit the website to fill out a report, which includes contact information and specifics about a particular incident. A report usually takes fewer than five minutes to complete, and once submitted, each report is reviewed by law enforcement analysts.
Here are some examples of behaviors and activities to report:
Strangers asking questions about building security features and procedures.
Briefcase, suitcase, backpack or package is left behind.
Cars or trucks are left in no-parking zones at important buildings.
Chemical smells or fumes that are unusual for the location.
People requesting sensitive information, such as blueprints, security plans or VIP travel schedules, without a need to know.
Purchasing supplies that could be used to make bombs or weapons, or purchasing uniforms without having the proper credentials.
Taking photographs or videos of security features, such as cameras or check points.
DPS urges residents who see something unusual to simply speak up. Preparations for terrorist attacks are often seen, but rarely reported. When in doubt, report the suspicious activity through iWATCH. For more information on the iWATCH program or to submit a report, visit www.iwatchtx.org.
The iWATCH website is part of the DPS Intelligence and Counterterrorism Division (ICT), which serves as the central clearinghouse for the collection, management, analysis and dissemination of law enforcement and homeland security intelligence in Texas. This DPS intelligence strategy is essential to proactive, preventive and effective law enforcement operations to combat crime and terrorism.
The intelligence strategy encompasses a variety of other programs, including the multi-agency Texas Fusion Center, which provides around-the-clock analytical assistance to more than 1,500 local law enforcement agencies; Counterterrorism Analysis Program; State Intelligence Assessment Program; Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitive and Sex Offender programs; Operation Drawbridge border camera program; Missing and Exploited Children Unit; Interdiction for the Protection of Children Program; Gang Analysis Section; and Critical Infrastructure and Key Resource Tracking and Assessment Program. ICT also offers direct case support for Texas Rangers, and assistance in investigations involving cartel, gangs, human trafficking and sex offenders.

Introductory Python Programming Sessions in Kuwait
KBSoft will be conducting a series of introductory sessions designed to introduce programmers to new programming tools and to help improve their programming skills. The sessions are:
Sunday, Nov 21st 2010 7pm — 9pm: An Introduction to Revision Control with Git.
The goal of this session is to introduce how revision control systems can be an indispensable tool to programmers. Git will be the tool of choice for this session and we will go through a number of exercises to show how useful it can be to both individual programmers and programming teams. We will also be introducing a number of best practices for using using Git and help the attendees get more familiar with the system.
Tuesday, Nov 23rd 2010 7pm — 9pm: An Introduction to the Python Programming Language.
The goal of this session is to introduce python as a general purpose programming language that can be used to solve most problems faced by programmers in Kuwait. There will be a number of exercises to introduce the language syntax and features. In addition to an overview of some of the useful packages in the standard library, language best practices, and how to setup a functional development environment.
Thursday, Nov 25th 2010 7pm — 9pm: An Introduction to Web Application Development with Django.
The goal of this session is to introduce Django as the tool of choice for web development. Our approach will be to contrast the Django development model with that of the common PHP model that most attendees might be familiar with as they explored and learned PHP. We will be introducing the main components of the Django framework and go through a simple exercise that would give the users an appreciation of how useful and time-saving this framework can be.
The sessions will be held in Kuwait Information Technology Society (KITS, formerly KCS) in AlRawda. The building is at the very corner of AlRawda directly in front of AlJabriya and on the intersection of the 4th ring road with King Fahad Highway.
Understanding of at least a single programming language (e.g., php, vb, c, Java)
Laptop with the following installed to go through the exercises (No love will be shown for Windows users, your on your own ;) ):
- Git: For download & installation instructions
- Python: For download & installation instructions, linux and mac users can type "python" in terminal to confirm that its pre-installed
- Text editor of choice, or you might try pycharm, wing, komodo, Netbeans, or Eclipse with PyDev
Strongly recommended: bring your own internet connection, as the connection there might not be reliable

Lecture Series Promotes Respect in the Workplace
Today's workplace for "hard-discipline" organizations, such as science, technology, engineering and medicine requires a more diverse and balanced set of skills for success than at any other time in history. Organizational dynamics, diverse cultures, genders, professions and backgrounds, as well as environmental, consumer and business demands require an emphasis on interpersonal, ethical, and relational competencies as well as traditional technical orientations. Several organizations and institutions, including the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, will address these issues in a six-part lecture series entitled "Hard Science/Soft Skills: Fostering Civility in the Scientific Workplace." Lecture dates are: Feb. 7, Feb. 28, March 28, April 27 and May 30. Panel presentation and discussion on June 27. Lectures will begin at 4 p.m. in the institute's auditorium, 3700 San Martin Drive.
