In the first year following the release of a blueprint to heal the ailing May River, it's little surprise that many of the top initiatives raised by town of Bluffton officials as they reflect on 2012 linked to the river, but that certainly wasn't all, they say.
Other projects they say will leave their mark are the Don Ryan Center technology incubator, a system of pathway and sewer upgrades and the implementation of a new code of ordinances that spells out where the town wants to focus future development, to name a few.
Don Ryan Center for Innovation
Opened in May, the technology center partners Bluffton with Clemson University and CareCore, which donated office space at Buckwalter Place. The center offers startups committed to Bluffton with connections to financing, mentorship and informational resources through Clemson University's Building the Technology Village and private partners.
Now with nine clients, officials anticipate between one and four will "graduate" from the center, improving the economic fortunes of the area as they expand.
"The Don Ryan Center is the personification, I think, of Bluffton growing up," said Town Manager Anthony Barrett. "We recognized that we have to do economic development. We're not interested in smokestacks, but we're interested in the technical aspects of medical care and primary jobs."
Director Jordan Berliner wasn't available for a group interview between town officials and Bluffton Today, but other officials said the partnership with a major research will prove invaluable and now others hoping to emulate the center have approached Bluffton.
"We were the first out of the box," Barrett said. "It wasn't intended that way. Now there are four more pending, but we think there will be probably seven now."
Officials say the center will need to continue forging relationships with venture capitalists to develop its clients and bring in more private money to support operations. The town of Bluffton is kicking in about $154,000 of the center's expenses this year.
Palmetto Bluff transfer of development rights
When the town adopted its sweeping ordinance update to standardize form and create walkable mixed-used communities late last year, it mapped out where it wants to cluster future development, namely in the Buckwalter area.
"The consideration put into that and all of the framework behind it is all the existing and planned infrastructure, but the underlying baseline was environmental: It identified where we want to grow and where we should grow," said Marc Orlando, director of growth management. That framework in particular motivated town staff to approach Palmetto Bluff and New Riverside developer Crescent Resources about transferring building rights to the town's development rights bank for future use.
The result was an offer to permanently shift at least 1,300 residential units from the headwaters around New Riverside and lift the capacity in areas away from the river at Palmetto Bluff by 1,080.
"The success, though, isn't that we're removing units from our community, from our tax base," Orlando said. "The success is that we're moving them out of harm's way and allowing them to be in a place that we all prefer based on our growth framework map."
Stormwater projects
Included in that agreement was a six-acre land donation from Crescent Resources within New Riverside for a stormwater pond to capture and treat runoff from an area of high fecal coliform bacteria before it reaches the river.
The $485,000 project will likely go out to bid early in the new year, said Ron Bullman, director of stormwater management, adding the town is shooting for an end-of-June completion date. The town contributed $185,000 through stormwater utility fees, with the rest coming from a grant.
When completed, it's expected to capture and treat stormwater runoff within 300 acres.
While another treatment pond advances at Rose Dhu Creek, town staff continue talks with a private land owner to allow for wetland restoration at Stoney Creek near May River Road.
Man-made ditches took over the wetlands between 100 or 150 years ago, hindering the natural filtration process that should be reducing pollutant loads, Bullman said.
The program could treat about 4,900 acres of property, he added.
"To put that in perspective, (monitoring) station 19-19, the station that eventually restricted the headwaters, services about 10,000 acres," he said. "This particular project could potentially treat half the watershed for station 19."
Key among town initiatives is creating a community navigable by pedestrians walking and biking to destinations, whether to school, work or other locations.
In the first year of its five-year capital plan the town budgeted $2.5 million for sidewalks, lighting and sewer-line upgrades in the Buck Island-Simmonsville area along with Old Town streetscapes and park additions. $1.3 million of those Buck Island-Simmonsville improvements came from a community development block grant.
With five miles of pipe serving 124 households and close to a mile of sidewalk in the Buck Island-Simmonsville area so far, the town made a significant investment, said James Ayers, director of engineering.
"The engineering department likes to build things, but the most important thing we build is community, and the way we do it is really three things: We serve our citizens, protect our environment and construct the future," he added.
A second phase of the Old Town streetscape will expand pathways to Buck Island Road. Design and permitting was included in the $1 million budgeted toward the streetscape project this fiscal year, but that project won't be completed before the close of the 2013 fiscal year June 30, Ayers said.

(Full field post positions and morning-line odds are located at the bottom).
Robert LaPenta's Dialed In, the winner of three of four career starts including the $1 million Florida Derby (GI) in his most recent start, was made the 4-1 morning line favorite Wednesday night for Saturday's 137th running of the $2,196,800 Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (Grade I) at historic Churchill Downs.
If all 20 horses entered in the 1 ¼-mile classic start, the race will be worth $2,196,800 with the winner receiving $1,436,800. Post time for the Kentucky Derby, which will be the 11th race on the 13-race program is scheduled for 6:24 p.m. (all times Eastern). First post time is 10:30 a.m.
NBC Sports will provide television coverage of the race from 4-7 p.m. with radio coverage provided by Horse Racing Radio Network from 5-7 p.m. Derby Day racing coverage from Churchill Downs will also be available on NBC's VERSUS network from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. along with a post-Derby show from 7-7:30.
Trained by two-time Kentucky Derby winner Nick Zito, Dialed In drew post position eight and will be ridden by Julien Leparoux, the French-born riding star who is frequently the leading jockey at Churchill Downs but has yet to enjoy success in the track's biggest race. Dialed In won his career debut at Churchill Downs in November and started 2011 with a victory in the Holy Bull (GIII) at Gulfstream Park.
Zito's previous Derby wins came in 1991 with Strike the Gold and 1994 with Go for Gin. The latter also broke from post position eight.
Second on linemaker Mike Battaglia's morning line at 9-2 is Repole Stable's Uncle Mo, the 2010 Eclipse Award winner as champion 2-year-old and winner of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (GI) at Churchill Downs last fall.
Uncle Mo, who was undefeated in his first four starts before a third-place finish in the Wood Memorial (GI) on April 9, will be trying to give trainer Todd Pletcher, honored five times with an Eclipse Award that recognized him as America's leading trainer, a second consecutive Kentucky Derby victory. WinStar Farm's Super Saver provided Pletcher with his first triumph in the Run for the Roses in 2010.
A victory by Uncle Mo, or his Repole-owned stablemate Stay Thirsty, would make Pletcher the seventh trainer to win back-to-back Derbies. The most was Bob Baffert, who won with Silver Charm and Real Quiet in 1997 and '98, respectively.
John Velazquez, who is searching for his first success in the Derby, has the mount on Uncle Mo, who will break from post position 18. Ramon Dominguez will ride Stay Thirsty, 20-1 on the morning line, who will break from post position four.
Baffert, who also won the 2002 Derby with War Emblem, will send out Midnight Interlude, winner of the Santa Anita Derby (GI) in his most recent start. Owned by Arnold Zetcher, Midnight Interlude will be ridden by Victor Espinoza, who was aboard for War Emblem's Derby victory.
Listed at 10-1 and co-fourth choice on the morning line with Archarcharch, Midnight Interlude will break from post position 15.
Third choice on the line at 6-1 is Zayat Stables' Nehro, fast-closing runner-up in the Arkansas Derby (GI) and Louisiana Derby (GII) in his past two starts. Trained by Steve Asmussen and ridden by Corey Nakatani, Nehro will break from post position 19.
Three other Grade I winners are in the field: Robert and Val Yagos' Archarcharch, the Live Oak Plantation's Brilliant Speed and Comma to the Top, owned by Gary Barber, Roger Birnbaum and Kevin Tsujihara.
Trained by veteran William "Jinks" Fires and ridden his son-in-law Jon Court, Archarcharch rallied to win the Arkansas Derby in his most recent start. A winner of three of six career starts, Archarcharch also won the Southwest (GIII) at Oaklawn Park and the Sugar Bowl at Fair Grounds. Archarcharch, 10-1 on the morning line, will break from post position one.
Brilliant Speed, trained by Tom Albertrani and ridden by Joel Rosario, enters the Derby off a nose victory in the Toyota Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland over a synthetic Polytrack surface. Saturday's race will mark Brilliant Speed's first start on dirt since a seventh-place finish in a maiden race at Saratoga. Brilliant Speed, 30-1 on the morning line, will break from post position two.
Winner of the CashCall Futurity to close out 2010, Comma to the Top enters Derby 137 off a narrow loss to Midnight Interlude in the Santa Anita Derby. Trained by Peter Miller, Comma to the Top will be ridden by Patrick Valenzuela who partnered Sunday Silence to victory in the 1989 Derby. A 30-1 chance on the morning line, Comma to the Top will break from post position six.
Calvin Borel, who has won three of the past four Kentucky Derbys, has the mount on Twice the Appeal as he seeks to become the first jockey in the storied history of the race to win three consecutive times. Borel, who won on Street Sense in 2007 and Mine That Bird in 2009 addition to Super Saver last year, is one of only four riders to win back-to-back Derbies. No jockey has won three in a row.
Owned by Edward Brown, Victor Flores and Henry Hernandez, Twice the Appeal is trained by Jeff Bonde. Twice the Appeal punched his ticket to Churchill Downs with a victory in the Sunland Derby (GIII) on March 27. Twice the Appeal, 20-1 on the morning line, will break from post position three.
Also trying to make some Kentucky Derby history are three women seeking to become the first of their gender to win the Run for the Roses: jockey Rosie Napravnik, and trainers Kathy Ritvo and Kathleen O'Connell.
Napravnik will become the sixth woman jockey to ride in the race when she goes postward on George and Lori Hall's Pants On Fire. Napravnik rode Pants On Fire to victory in the Louisiana Derby (GII) in March at the Fair Grounds, where she was the leading rider with 110 victories in the 83-day meet. Rosemary Homeister Jr. was the most recent woman to ride in the Derby in 2003 when she finished 13th on Supah Blitz, and Diane Crump, 15th aboard Fathom in 1970, was the first.
Ritvo trains Reeves Thoroughbred Racing and Dream Team Racing Stable's Mucho Macho Man, winner of the Risen Star (GII) and third in the Louisiana Derby in his most recent start. Rajiv Maragh has the mount on Mucho Macho Man, a 12-1 shot on the morning line who will break from post position 13.
O'Connell trains Tampa Bay Derby (GII) winner Watch Me Go, owned by Gilbert Campbell. Rafael Bejarano has the riding assignment on Watch Me Go, who will break from post position 20. Watch Me Go is 50-1 on the morning line.
Ritvo and O'Connell represent the 15th and 16th women to saddle a Kentucky Derby starter. Shelly Riley came closest to winning the Derby when her Casual Lies finished second in 1992 and the Kristen Mulhall-trained Imperialism finished third in 2004.
Adding an international flavor to this year's running is the presence of Mrs. John Magnier's Master of Hounds. Based in Ireland and trained by Aidan O'Brien, Master of Hounds is making his second trip to Churchill Downs after having finished sixth in last year's Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (GII).
Garrett Gomez has the mount on Master of Hounds, who ran second in the UAE Derby (Group II) in Dubai in his lone 2011 start. Master of Hounds, 30-1 on the morning line, will break from post 11.
The field for the 137th Kentucky Derby in post position order is as follows: Archarcharch (Jon Court), Brilliant Speed (Joel Rosario), Twice the Appeal (Calvin Borel), Stay Thirsty (Ramon Dominguez), Decisive Moment (Kerwin Clark), Comma to the Top (Patrick Valenzuela), Pants On Fire (Rosie Napravnik), Dialed In (Julien Leparoux), Derby Kitten (Javier Castellano), Twinspired (Mike Smith), Master of Hounds (Garrett Gomez), Santiva (Shaun Bridgmohan), Mucho Macho Man (Rajiv Maragh), Shackleford (Jesus Castanon), Midnight Interlude (Victor Espinoza), Animal Kingdom (Robby Albarado), Soldat (Alan Garcia), Uncle Mo (John Velazquez), Nehro (Corey Nakatani) and Watch Me Go (Rafael Bejarano). All starters carry 126 pounds.
On Robby Albarado (who was injured Wednesday when kicked in the face by a horse): "I think he's going to be OK. I'm not 100 percent sure that he's going to be able to ride tomorrow, he's got a broken nose and lacerations around his eye. But I talked with (Albarado's agent) Lenny (Pike) and he's pretty confident that he will be OK for Saturday."
Were you sweating out the one hole?
Owner Ahmed Zayat: "Well, let's put it this way, I'm told that from the 19 hole there has never been a winner so far. So I guess this would have to be a first. A first for Asmussen, a first for Corey Nakatani, a first for 19, and a first for Zayat."
Co-owner George Hall: "I'm thrilled because two years ago we had the one hole for Westside Bernie and we learned the hard way that's a very tough trip. So as long as we were outside a couple of positions we were OK and I think it sets up pretty well for us so we're pleased."

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CML): Your Chances for Recovery (Prognosis)
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML): Your Chances for Recovery (Prognosis)
What is a prognosis?
Prognosis is the word your healthcare team may use to describe your likely outcome from your leukemia and its treatment. A prognosis is a calculated guess. It's a question many people have when they learn they have cancer.
Making a choice
The decision to ask about your prognosis is a personal one. It's up to you to decide how much you want to know. Some people find it easier to cope and plan ahead when they know their prognosis and the statistics for how well a treatment might work. Other people find statistics confusing and frightening. Or they might think statistics are too general to be useful.
A doctor who is most familiar with your health is in the best position to discuss your prognosis with you and explain what the statistics may mean in your case. At the same time, you should keep in mind that your prognosis can change. Cancer and cancer treatment outcomes are hard to predict. For instance, a favorable prognosis (which means you're likely going to do well) can change if the cancer keeps growing or doesn't respond to treatment. An unfavorable prognosis can change, too. This can happen if treatment controls the CML so it doesn't grow more.
What goes into a prognosis
When figuring out your prognosis, your doctor will consider all the things that could affect the leukemia and its treatment. Your doctor will look at risk estimates about the exact type of CML you have. These estimates are based on what results researchers have seen over decades in many people with the same type of CML.
If your CML is likely to respond well to treatment, your doctor will say you have a favorable prognosis. If it's likely to be hard to control, your prognosis may be less favorable. The leukemia may shorten your life. It's important to keep in mind that a prognosis states what's likely or probable. It is not a prediction of what will definitely happen. No doctor can be fully certain about an outcome.
Your prognosis depends mainly on:
The type and phase of your leukemia
Your age and overall health
How well your leukemia responds to treatment
Understanding survival rates
Survival rates show how many people live for a certain length of time after being told they have cancer. Most often, the numbers used refer to the 5-year or the 10-year survival rate. That's how many people live at least 5 or 10 years after being diagnosed.
A survival rate is not the same as a cure rate. CML tends to grow slowly. Most people live many years after being diagnosed. But this type of leukemia is often very hard to cure.
What are the survival rates for CML?
The relative 5-year survival rate for people diagnosed with CML is 63%. This number is adjusted for the fact that some people with CML will die from causes other than CML.
This number is based on people who were diagnosed between 2007 and 2013. But newer treatments for CML have become available in recent years. These include targeted medicines. The prognosis for people diagnosed with CML now is better. The number of survivors has doubled since the early 1990s and has been going up every year.
Talking with your healthcare provider
You can ask your healthcare provider about survival rates and what you might expect. But remember that statistics are based on large groups of people. They can't be used to say what will happen to you. No two people are exactly alike. Treatment and how well people respond to treatment vary.

This is the course to take if you have to defend web applications!
The quantity and importance of data entrusted to web applications is growing, and defenders need to learn how to secure them. Traditional network defenses, such as firewalls, fail to secure web applications. DEV522 covers the OWASP Top 10 Risks and will help you better understand web application vulnerabilities, thus enabling you to properly defend your organization's web assets.
Mitigation strategies from an infrastructure, architecture, and coding perspective will be discussed alongside real-world applications that have been proven to work. The testing aspect of vulnerabilities will also be covered so that you can ensure your application is tested for the vulnerabilities discussed in class.
To maximize the benefit for a wider range of audiences, the discussions in this course will be programming language agnostic. Focus will be maintained on security strategies rather than coding-level implementation.
DEV522: Defending Web Applications Security Essentials is intended for anyone tasked with implementing, managing, or protecting Web applications. It is particularly well suited to application security analysts, developers, application architects, pen testers, auditors who are interested in recommending proper mitigations for web security issues, and infrastructure security professionals who have an interest in better defending their web applications.
The course will also cover additional issues the authors have found to be important in their day-to-day web application development practices. The topics that will be covered include:
The course will make heavy use of hands-on exercises and concludes with a large defensive exercise that reinforces the lessons learned throughout the week.
You Will Learn:
We begin day one with an overview of recent web application attack and security trends, then follow up by examining the essential technologies that are at play in web applications. You cannot win the battle if you do not understand what you are trying to defend. We arm you with the right information so you can understand how web applications work and the security concepts related to them.
We discuss the authentication aspect of web applications in depth. The vulnerability of authentication is covered, followed by examples of exploitation and the mitigations that can be implemented in the short and long term. We complete the discussion by providing information on how to discover and test for vulnerabilities.
Authorization is the last topic of discussion for the day: the goal is to make sure that applications properly control access to the appropriate resources. You will learn the right way to plan for access during the development life cycle and the common pitfalls with access control. Similar to the discussion on authentication, we start with the vulnerabilities and then move on to mitigations and testing, followed by a section on best practices on authorization.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
Since the Internet does not guarantee the secrecy of information being transferred, encryption is commonly used to protect the integrity and secrecy of information on the web. This course day covers the security of data in transit or on disk and how encryption can help with securing that information in the context of web application security.
We continue with a discussion about session management in web applications. We will go over a hacker's technique in attacking the session mechanism and related defense strategies. Best practices of session security will be discussed to ensure your application's session management is as strong as possible. Advanced session topics like cross-site request forgery will also be covered.
Next we will cover business logic flaws and concurrency. These are difficult topics to detect with automated scanners, so it is essential that security professionals understand these problems and avoid them at all costs.
The day ends with analysis of some basic input-related flaws, as well as SQL injection. The basic mechanics of these vulnerabilities are covered, followed by real-world attack trends. Most importantly, we delve into the mitigation of these vulnerabilities and best practices to avoid these critical vulnerabilities.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
Day three begins with a detailed discussion on cross-site scripting and related mitigation and testing strategies, as well as HTTP response splitting.
The code in an application may be totally locked down, but if the server setting is insecure, the server running the application can be easily compromised. Locking down the web environment is essential, so we cover this basic concept of defending the platform and host.
To enable any detection of intrusion, logging and error handling must be done correctly. We will discuss the correct approach to handling incidents and logs, then dive even further to cover the intrusion detection aspect of web application security.
In the afternoon we turn our focus to the proactive defense mechanism so that we are ahead of the bad guys in the game of hack and defend. We will cover such topics such as file upload handling, intrusion detection, honeypot, redirection, extra in-depth authentication information, and practical input validation strategy. The material is designed to give you the extra edge in defending your application.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
Day four is dedicated to the security of asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) and web services, which are currently the most active areas in web application development. Security issues continue to arise as organizations dive head first into insecurely implementing new web technologies without first understanding them.
We will cover security issues, mitigation strategies, and general best practices for implementing AJAX and web services. We will also examine real-world attacks and trends to give you a better understanding of exactly what you are protecting against. Discussion focuses on the web services in the morning and AJAX technologies in the afternoon.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
Day five focuses on cutting-edge web application technologies and current research area. Topics such as clickjacking and DNS rebinding are covered. These vulnerabilities are difficult to defend and multiple defense strategies are needed for their defense to be successful.
Another topic of discussion is the new generation of single-sign-on solutions such as OpenID. We cover the implications of using these authentication systems and the common "gotchas" to avoid.
With the Web2.0 adoption, the use of Java applet, Flash, ActiveX, and Silverlight are on the increase. The security strategies of defending these technologies are discussed so that these client-side technologies can be locked down properly.
CPE/CMU Credits: 6
Day six starts with an introduction to the secure software development life cycle and how to apply it to web development. But the focus is a large lab that will tie together the lessons learned during the week and reinforce them with hands-on applications. Students will be provided with a virtual machine to implement a complete database-driven dynamic website. In addition, they will use a custom tool to enumerate security vulnerabilities and simulate a vulnerability assessment of the website. Students will then have to decide which vulnerabilities are real and which are false positives, and then mitigate the vulnerabilities. The scanner will score the student as vulnerabilities are eliminated or checked off as false positives. Advanced students will be able to extend this exercise and find vulnerabilities not presented by the scanner.
Students will learn through these hands-on exercises how to secure the web application, starting with the operating system, the web server, finding configuration problems in the application language setup, and finding and fixing coding problems in the site.

"Not only does DEV22 teach the defenses for securing web apps, it also shows how common and easy the attacks are and thus the need to secure the apps." - Brandon Hardin, ITC
"As the world moves everything online, DEV522 is a necessity." - Chris Spinder, B/E Aerospace, Inc.
"I think DEV522 is absolutely necessary to all techies who work on web applications. I don't think developers understand the great necessity of web security and why it is so important." - Mahesh Kandru, Cabela's
"DEV522 provides good web application basics and gives an excellent understanding of application from a security perspective." - Tarun Madiraju, NOPSEC
"Specific and hands on training regarding webserver and browser security as it is presented in DEV522 is valuable! The cost of bugs and vulnerabilities can be immeasurable." - Josh Hegg, Tripwire
Too many websites are getting compromised these days. The goal of DEV522 is to arm students with defensive strategies that can work for all web applications. We all know it is very difficult to defend a web application because there are so many different types of vulnerabilities and attack channels. Overlook one thing and your web app is owned. The defensive perimeter needs to extend far beyond just the coding aspects of web application. This course covers the security vulnerabilities so that students have a good understanding of the problems at hand. We then provide the defensive strategies and tricks, as well as the overall architecture, that have been proven to help secure sites. I have also included some case studies throughout the course so we can learn from the mistakes of others and make our own defense stronger. The exercises in class are designed to help you further your understanding and help you retain this knowledge through hands-on practice. By the end of the course, you will have the practical skills and understanding of the defensive strategies to lock down existing applications and build more secure applications in the future.

CLOCK_GETTIME(2) BSD Programmer's Manual CLOCK_GETTIME(2)
clock_gettime, clock_settime, clock_getres - get/set/calibrate date and time
#include <sys/time.h> int clock_gettime(clockid_t clock_id, struct timespec *tp); int clock_settime(clockid_t clock_id, const struct timespec *tp); int clock_getres(clockid_t clock_id, struct timespec *tp);
The clock_gettime() and clock_settime() allow the calling process to re- trieve or set the value used by a clock which is specified by clock_id. clock_id can be one of four values: CLOCK_REALTIME for time that incre- ments as a wall clock should, CLOCK_VIRTUAL for time that increments only when the CPU is running in user mode on behalf of the calling process, CLOCK_PROF for time that increments when the CPU is running in user or kernel mode, or CLOCK_MONOTONIC for time that increments at a steady rate (monotonically). The structure pointed to by tp is defined in <sys/time.h> as: struct timespec { time_t tv_sec; /* seconds */ long tv_nsec; /* and nanoseconds */ }; Only the superuser may set the time of day. If the system securelevel is greater than 1 (see init(8)), the time may only be advanced. This limita- tion is imposed to prevent a malicious superuser from setting arbitrary time stamps on files.

I have been converted to this new wave of Korean, Japanesse, Korean, guitars. I never thought I would let go of my 63 jazzmaster for a MIK Tokai copy of a 335, but I have-big time. I love this tokai, and the jazzmaster has been in the case for the past 18 months, since I bought it. I took it out a couple of weeks ago to gig with my trio, and wished I had left it home, and brought the Tokai. It is bone stock to boot. I recorded a session today with it, and love the tone I get from it. Any other cheapo knock off heads out there? Walter
todays session: $400 MIK Tokai copy of 335 going through a fender deluxe reverb reissue amp
I'm in the Penitentary
Blowin the high notes
They tell me I have to change my ways
Gonna love you all night long

: Stroke Tied to Cold, Humidity
By Marilynn Marchione
There may be a link between weather and the risk of suffering a stroke, say researchers who analyzed climate trends and hospital records on millions of Americans.
Cold weather, high humidity and big daily temperature swings seem to land more people in the hospital with strokes. As it got warmer, risk fell 3 percent for every 5 degrees, the study found.
"Maybe some of these meteorological factors serve as a trigger," said Judith Lichtman, a Yale University stroke researcher who led the study. With global climate change and extreme weather like this week's freak storm in the South, "this could be increasingly important," she said.
Lichtman and colleagues from Harvard and Duke universities gave results of their study Wednesday at the American Heart Association's International Stroke Conference in San Diego. It is the largest and most detailed research on this issue.
Each year, about 800,000 Americans have a stroke. Most are due to clots that block a blood vessel to the brain, and high blood pressure is a major risk factor.
Some earlier studies found a seasonal trend to stroke rates, and there are biological reasons to think they are related, said one independent expert, Dr. Andrew Stemer, a neurologist at Georgetown University.
Blood vessels constrict in cold weather, which can raise blood pressure, he said. Extreme weather can trigger a stress reaction by the body, causing it to release substances "that not only increase the work of the heart" but make blood stickier and more likely to clot, Stemer said.
In cold weather "your body clamps down, there's cardiovascular stress," said Dr. Larry Goldstein, a Duke stroke specialist who worked on the study.
Conversely, "high humidity may cause dehydration," which also can raise the risk for clots and raise stress on the body, he said. "You know how you feel when you're out in hot, humid weather you don't feel so hot."
Several of these same researchers published another study earlier this year that looked at stroke deaths from 1999 to 2006 among Medicare patients and found a pattern higher rates in the winter, lower in summer and a small peak in July.
The new study looked at stroke hospitalizations, not just deaths, in a wider population of adults using a federal database covering all states except Idaho, North Dakota, Delaware and New Hampshire. Researchers also had daily climate data down to the county level from the National Climatic Data Center for 2010 and 2011.
Researchers tracked only strokes caused by clots, not the less common kind caused by a burst or bleeding blood vessel.
Lower temperatures, larger daily temperature changes and higher dew points (humidity) were tied to higher stroke hospitalization rates.
Each 5-degree increase in daily temperature fluctuation (the highest reading minus the lowest one) raised the chance of stroke hospitalization by 6 percent. Each 5-degree rise in the dew point (humidity) raised the risk by 2 percent.
The researchers did not establish a threshold when things were too hot the point of the study was tracking the general trend, Lichtman said.
The results mean that during extreme weather, friends and relatives should "keep an eye on people that are at high risk, those who are older," she said.
During stressful weather conditions, "you want to watch your diet, watch your salt intake, regardless of what the temperatures are," and get enough fluids, said Daniel Lackland, a scientist at Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston.
Goldstein added this advice for people already at cardiovascular risk: "Stay in air conditioning in the summer and stay heated in the winter," so the weather outside affects you less.

The Wanted's Nathan Sykes Having Throat Surgery on His Birthday
Nathan Sykes of the Wanted will celebrate his 20th birthday on Thursday, April 18 by going under the knife.
Oh no! The adorable singer will have a procedure to repair a hemorrhaging nodule on his vocal cords. Gasp! What a way to spend his bday – having surgery and having to go silent for a month. No fun. Boo! Hiss!
Unfortunately, the surgery is necessary. Sykes has reportedly been dealing with vocal issues for quite some time and sought the opinion of a specialist, who advised that surgery was inevitable. The singer has headed to Los Angeles from the Bahamas for the surgery. Well, that's another downer. Not only is he having a surgical procesure on his bday, but he had to leave the islands to address the issue. Blergh!
Sykes will need to spend a month recovery, unable to speak during that time.
The band post the following update on Facebook:
Our lil Nath has to go in for an operation on his throat, on his birthday to make him better. So please join us in wishing our brother and our friend well. Get well soon Nath, we love ya!
We love ya, too, Nath!
The procedure could interfere with the band's plans to record the new album and to head out on tour in support of a new disc.
A source said that the singer is highly concerned about the surgery, admitting, "It's not good at all. Nathan has battled with throat issues for a while but this is far more serious. After the once-over by the specialist, he was instructed to have almost immediate surgery. Naturally, Nathan is really worried as if it doesn't work, his career is over."
His bandmates – Jay, Max, Siva and Tom -- are equally worried. "The rest of the band are not only concerned about him but also about the group," the insider said. "It will be tricky to continue without him as vocals will have to be changed. All their worldwide commitments are having to be put on hold."
We've seen Adele and John Mayer have similar vocal problems, followed by procedures that worked, so we think our lil Nath has nothing to worry about. We wish him the best. It might mess with the band's global itinerary, but all band activity can wait and be rescheduled so that he heals and avoids further damage.

Hayden Arizona Pioneer Biographies Collection
Support for this project was graciously provided by Jim and Sue Chilton.
Welcome to the Hayden Pioneer Biographies Collection! This web site provides access to the text of biographical essays that were written or compiled by Senator Carl Hayden during his legendary career in the US Senate and the US House of Representatives. Hayden compiled lists of pioneers from the 1860, 1864 and 1870 U.S. Censuses for the Arizona/New Mexico and Arizona territories and began collecting data on each of the names listed for the geographic area that eventually became the state of Arizona. The Senator compiled research data for 1,927 individuals, and completed biographical texts for 830 of them. The pioneers included many military personnel, Mexican-American settlers, and some individuals briefly passing through the territory.
The Hayden Pioneer Biographical Files came to Arizona State University in 1969 along with the senator's other personal research files and congressional and senatorial papers. They were originally kept in Senator Hayden's office on the fourth floor of Hayden Library and were transferred to the Arizona Collection after the senator's demise in 1972.
The 830 pioneers listed at this site are only those for whom Senator Hayden completed biographical texts, and only the biographical texts have been scanned. The complete files, however, typically include many other valuable source materials, such as transcriptions of newspaper articles and obituaries, military records, and veterans pension files.
A complete list of the 1,921 pioneer biographical research files can be viewed by searching for the keywords HAY BIO in the call number of the Arizona and Southwest Index. The Carl Hayden Papers also contain a substantial quantity of raw research materials on territorial Arizona that may have been used in the production of the biographies but were kept separately from the Pioneer Biographical Files.
The original Hayden Pioneer Biographies were scanned using Adobe Capture® software to enable document image presentation and manipulation. Users accessing this web page through ASU Library One Search will automatically invoke the Adobe Acrobat® viewer when they click on an individiual biography. The version of Adobe Acrobat® includes image zooming and framing functionalities that enhance legibility, as some of the original carbon typescripts resulted in poor resolution scans. Researchers acessing this information from outside the ASU Library will need the Adobe Acrobat® viewer, which can be downloaded free from Adobe. Remote researchers may also experience significant delays in downloading biographical texts due to large files sizes and the slow transmission speeds of standard telephone lines. Future enhancements to this site may include links from Arizona and Southwest Index entries and searching functionalities that will enable full text searching across all of the biographical essays.

VIDEO: Commissioner Adam Silver's opening statement at All-Star 2014
NEW ORLEANS – In the first few minutes of his most notable public appearance to date as the NBA's newly minted commissioner, Adam Silver may have given people a greater glimpse into what drives him than David Stern, his predecessor, offered in 30 years.
Silver worked solo Saturday night at the annual state-of-the-league All-Star Weekend media session that Stern – part Borscht Belt stand-up act, part bully pulpit – handled so masterfully through the years. After a series of acknowledgements (including one to Stern, who is in Aspen this weekend), Silver offered an "Intro to Adam" that showed the beating heart of a diehard basketball fan.
"The league has certainly changed my life. The game of basketball has," Silver said, a little nervous and emotional as he spoke of some of the mileposts in his journey to this night. "When I was younger, when my parents were first divorced, basketball is what bonded my father and I together."
Silver, 51, is a native New Yorker, the youngest of four children. He grew up as a Knicks fan, played on a junior league team in grade school and eventually attended Duke University, where students choose their majors but basketball is nearly everyone's minor.
"I was never a paint-your-face kind of kid," Silver said. "[But] when I was there, I experienced some of the best college basketball maybe ever."
Silver spoke of ACC stars, of Ralph Sampson and Gene Banks, of Michael Jordan and Sam Perkins. "I would say that had enormous meaning on my life," he said, "and it was only sort of back then that I think I started to understand how meaningful this game of basketball is to so many people, and the impact it has on so many people's lives."
Silver joined the NBA in 1992 as a special assistant to Stern before working his way into the deputy commissioner role. He has traveled the world and been intimately involved with most of the league's big ideas and issues: labor negotiations, television contracts, international initiatives to grow the sport, technological innovation. But his passion for the game stayed close to the surface.
"I've been with the league so long that if there were issues that I thought required immediate attention, I would like to think in partnership with David we would have addressed those," Silver said. "The coming together of the larger community of basketball is probably my priority, and that means focusing on the game all the way up from the young level through college to the pros."
Los Angeles Clippers guard Chris Paul, president of the National Basketball Players Association, already has begun working with Silver on multiple fronts. "Adam has been unbelievable, wonderful," Paul said this weekend, "in talking with us about increasing the dialogue between the players and NBA front offices."
But Silver's news conference was a coming-out moment that kicked off All-Star Saturday night, shared with a roomful and a global TV audience. He worked his way through a number of questions:
- Asked about technology, Silver quickly balanced that by citing transparency as one of his "guiding principles," through the use of replays in officiating but elsewhere too. "Transparency in how decisions are made at the league office, transparency in how we deal with our players and the Players Association," Silver said.
- Silver said he wasn't looking to alter Stern's approach, sounding more like he'd build on it in exploring new opportunities and markets. His respect and fondness for his former boss and mentor were evident. "It goes without saying that virtually none of us would be here without David," Silver said, congratulating the "commissioner emeritus" on his direct election Friday into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
- Like Stern, Silver is an advocate of adding a year to the current eligibility rule for young players to enter the NBA Draft. Bumping the minimum age to 20 years old and turning prospects' college careers into two-and-done would help both the NBA and the NCAA, he said, which he considers appropriate. "If players have an opportunity to mature as players and as people, for a longer amount of time, before they come into the league, it will be a better league," he said.
- "Tanking," a buzzword this season as teams consider the depth of the 2014 Draft, conjures teams "losing games on purpose," Silver said. "There's absolutely no evidence that any team in the NBA has ever lost a single game – or certainly, in any time that I've been in the league – on purpose." Rebuilding is something quite different. But Silver sounded open to adjusting the lottery system or odds, as needed.
- An area in which Silver brings his greatest expertise, and has gained the most trust from 30 owners, is television. Negotiations of the next TV deal are ongoing, with blockbuster expectations attached. As for those who feel that broadcast coverage has been crowded out by cable – affecting fans who don't have or might not be able to afford cable, where all of All-Star Weekend could be found – that world has changed. "It really to me is the quality of the coverage and the ability to reach homes in America," Silver said, "which we're doing now."
- Silver talked again about the refinement of the league's use of instant replay, improving the system while heeding the flow of games. Going to an off-site central replay system "similar to what the NHL does right now," with plays reviewed more swiftly and consistently, sounds like merely a matter of time.
- Sleeved jerseys? Silver said he's sensitive to player concerns but reaction has been mixed and statistics show no adverse effects on performance. Meanwhile, apparel sales have been strong, he said. "On one hand, people keep encouraging me to try new things," the commissioner said, "and then when we try something new, people say you've lost your mind. … It's something we're trying. We're having some fun with it. Long-term, we'll see."
- Those jerseys do provide more acreage for ads, and ads on game jerseys don't face the same threat of zapping that conventional commercials do. "Those live images are critically important to our marketing partners," he said. "I think it ultimately will happen."
- Expansion, domestically or internationally, does not rank high on Silver's list. The financial viability and competitive strength of the NBA's existing teams matters more.
- The goals espoused during the 2011 lockout – greater financial health and more competitive balance – are playing out in Silver's view. "The fact that we had four teams in the conference finals last year who are all in the bottom half of the league in terms of market size is a strong indication," he said.
- Despite concerns that the players association has not hired a replacement for deposed executive director Billy Hunter after more than a year, Silver said the delay has not squelched dealings with the union. Acting director Ron Klempner is available to address the most pressing issues, and the current CBA can't be reopened by either side until 2017.
Here again, Silver's sense of stewardship for the game and the league emerged. He sounded very much in sync, frankly, with comments earlier in the day that came from the NBPA's player-rep meeting.
Silver said it is important for the players to understand that collective bargaining is only "one small aspect of what their union is there for." He spoke of pensions, health care and other topics, not necessarily related to wrangling over the 50-50 split between players and owners of NBA revenue.
"Their greatest incentive should be to grow this league with us," Silver said. "That's going to have such a greater impact ultimately on their salaries than sort of tinkering around with the percentages of [basketball-related income].
"So I'm looking forward to dealing with a partner in this league, not an adversary, a partner that's going to continue to build this league with me and with the league."

I believe we have solidly entered a time which fully accepts that physical fitness, in one form or another, should become a part of everyone's life. If I were saying this a decade ago, I'd have carry out all the malarkey of selling you on fitness and convince you that this is the lifestyle you must commit. Heck, who would of ever thought that fitness would become the "vogue" thing to do.
Physical fitness then has attained an indestructible reputation which continues to grow day-by-day. Everybody benefits from being more active and eating well. It was once thought that exercise and other physical fitness activities were only for those who had athletic aspirations. Observances of these striving individuals (the athletes) often left envious impressions with the manner in which they challenged and performed stressful tasks. With a daily dosage of fitness activities in their lives, athletes have trained themselves to become stronger, better fit members of our society. Many may think the athlete is a breed apart, but these individuals are self-made enthusiasts--they're human just like anybody else.
In that regard, every human being has a muscular system, a heart with a circulatory system, a set of lungs, a family of organs, a skeleton, and a network of nerves connected to a brain. Athletes are not the only humans who possess these anatomical pieces of apparatus. But to acquire better levels of fitness for these bodily components you must receive regular forms of stimulation by way of fitness activities and nutritional support. So with this in mind, I can honestly admit that "FITNESS IS FOR EVERYONE!"
Inactivity: The Side Effects
Inactivity prevents the body from eliminating much of the toxic materials it accumulates. Here's an example I use in my seminars to stress this point: If an automobile engine has a poor exhaust system this vehicle will eventually experience problems in starting, will accelerate erratically, may stall on occasion, or may not even start at all. All of these problems are a direct result from poor engine by-product elimination. This vehicle cannot release the waste it tries to reject which congests normal operations.
The body functions in a similar manner. If waste products are not eliminated, the body will become clogged and experience any number of unpleasant effects. What is not eliminated will be trapped and/or stored inside the body leading to many disturbing circumstances.
Poor nutritional habits are described as the intake of excess calories from any food sources including liquids, and/or consuming the wrong food products [i.e., junk food]. Combined with inactivity, these are the villains responsible for much of the obesity and ill-health in our societies. Those who become victimized by society's ways of eating, drinking and spending leisure time are those most likely to acquire these unpleasant states of health. The problem with consistent inactivity is that it deregulates the mind and body into a sedentary pattern--one simply becomes lazy.
Being over fat does not end at just a skin-deep problem--it goes a whole lot deeper than that. Many may feel fatness only creates the embarrassments of having an unpleasant physical appearance, as loss of the body's shape is the most visible. Fat can accumulate in all areas of the body surrounding and entwining itself to the muscles, the nerves and the organs (including the heart and lungs). The more excess fat one retains, the more of a burden their life-essential organs have to struggle with day in and day out.
Solving the Fat Problem
Every physical and psychological function requires energy. If we had no energy we simply could not exist. We obtain our energy from the foods we consume that also pertains to liquid calories like milk, juices, sodas, alcohol, coffees, etc.. We also receive a great deal of energy from the air we breathe, but for now let's just concentrate on foods, as we obviously do not get overweight from consuming air.
All forms of food, in any amount, supply various levels of energy. Food energy is calculated in measurements known as Calories. When we eat we supply our bodies with caloric sources of energy. We then release this energy by: 1) Moving; all physical activities, 2) Thinking; all psychological functions, and by, 3) Metabolism; the operational and recuperative functions of the body. Of these three, Moving, "physical activities", requires the greatest supply of energy to conduct its chores. Metabolism, on the other hand, burns plenty of calories after the body has been stimulated with intense activity relying on stored calories to fuel this reparation process. When we are inactive we do not release much energy, and certainly, our metabolisms enjoy vacation time as well.
"Thinking" is also an energy burner. Our minds require energy to operate, but those who are experiencing the effects of being overweight cannot merely rely on this source for ample caloric elimination. People who are depressed, angry, bitter, and easily agitated, burn a tremendous amount of energy. Most of the time you can see it in a persons face if they've been suffering from some sort of mental turmoil; their weight loss manifests itself by shrunken cheeks--among other areas. There are those however, who while imprisoned by these negative psychological thoughts try to combat, and/or alleviate, their negative emotions by gorging on pleasureful tasting [junk] foods. So even though they're burning calories while they're stressing-out, the amounts of foods they are forcing down their throats simply overloads their systems.
[We need to keep a clear understanding that food is fuel and fuel is energy in the form of calories. So whenever I'm talking about food, fuel, energy, or calories, they--basically--all mean the same].
Each of us have a specific rate of metabolism which converts food into energy for activity, the operational functions of life, and the repairing of damaged tissue. This conversion/reparation process is always operating whether we're active or sedentary. The goal then of the athlete and fitness enthusiast is to periodically expend the effort to exercise then allocate ample time to recuperate. This cyclic process allows us to burn more calories both during exercise and metabolic periods. So those who believe the fat-burning, strength-building, health-promoting benefits of fitness are confined to the actual times they are exercising are in for a big surprise! The benefits of exercise extend well beyond cool downs as metabolism takes the baton and runs its operation of repair that is fueled by calories. In other words, we can lose fat while we're doing nothing at all; that's sensational!
Fat: Why do we accumulate so much?
The main reason why people get fat is due to the fact that their energy intake (food consumption) exceeds their energy release; levels of activity and rates of metabolism. So to eliminate body fat you can simply do one of two things, or both: 1) Lower your calories to meet the level of your daily activities, and/or, 2) Increase your activities to meet your caloric intake--it's just that simple.
So here's what I'm suggesting: Either you reduce your calories to the actual needs of your expenditures, no more, or you simply increase your activity to burn up more fuel. My first suggestion might be impractical; tradition has proved this since this is a form of caloric deprivation and not many are good [or successful] at that. My second suggestion ignores the calorie-depriving lifestyle however now you must get that butt into gear shaking it more often to burn the calories you're consuming.
Are these suggestions practical? Regarding the first, most of you might be saying, "Not in this lifetime pal". But for my second, which doesn't force you to cut down on food, just up your activity, you might now be saying, "Yeah, that sounds like the plan for me!"
What Are My Choices
Inconvenience is a major reason why most people do not become involved in fitness. Their idea of a fitness regimen might only be associated with joining a health club or becoming a member on some team. If a facility or team organization is not conveniently or economically accessable, let your worries cease as there are numerous members of the physical fitness family which can be conducted in and around your home or office that are fun and rewarding. Never fear, I'll come up with something; read on!
Let's start with Walking. Walking is the easiest, safest, and most convenient activity. As a total body conditioner and fat eliminator, walking has developed a great reputation that is being pursued by millions. This form of exercise is available to everyone no matter which geographical location they live in as your neighborhood can be mapped into a number of courses.
While walking make sure you do so with dominance. Don't slouch your shoulders or drag your feet. Pump your arms and pivot at the waist. Hold your chest high and pull your shoulders back. Walk as if you're in an airport and you're rushing to catch your flight--get the idea?
Start off with a comfortable pace. As time progresses so will your levels of fitness. As you get in better condition brisker paces and longer distances/times can be endured and you'll noticed some of your excess bodyfat will be reducing
An effective walking program might start off by walking 10 minutes; 5 minutes away from your beginning point then 5 minutes to return. Every other walking session add 2 minutes onto your previous time until you are walking a maximum of 45 - 60 minutes. If you cannot endure a full hour of brisk walking, try "intervals". Start your walk at a normal pace (this will loosen and warm-up the muscles) then after 5 minutes have expired, really pour it on and walk as briskly as you can for 3-5 minutes. Repeat this interval until you have completed your scheduled time.
Jogging is another great activity. This form of exercise is, in many ways, considered a super-fast walk or a slow run. Many enthusiasts preface their jogging with a walking program, then accelerate to jogging once they've conditioned themselves and feel confidant. Unlike walking, jogging requires more vigorous body actions and places much more shock [or impact] to the body.
Wear only the best of shoes and conduct your workouts on soft flat surfaces like grass, rubberized tracks, etc.. I discourage those from jogging who have any ailments to their mid-to-lower backs, hips, knees, ankles, and feet. If you want to take your chances, proceeding with caution, it's a good idea to incorporate a walk-jog interval instead of trying to jog your entire workout time. This will reduce a lot of impact and stress to your body joints while completing the duration you need for optimum fitness.
Walk/jog intervals can be conducted like the casual/briskly paced walking intervals now starting with a walk for 5 minutes then graduating to a jog for any period of time you feel comfortable. Once you feel the slightest signs of stress, stop your jog down-shifting to a brisk walk. Stay with your brisk walk until you gather enough energy and confidence, then up-shift to a higher gear and jog away.
It's freezing out there!
Inevitably, your walking or jogging course will be covered by rain or snow, or your thermostat is reading a temperature better suited for a polar bear, not humans. Additionally, you may arrive home late from work or school and feel it's too chancy to challenge the dark. For these reasons, and others of inconvenience, treadmills have become popular remedies. This at-home any-time piece of apparatus can prove to be a health-saver as your consistant patterns of activity will not have to be interupted while you're waiting for the rain to stop.

If our children happen to be released then the real torture begins. They are branded by the cruel laws that opportunistic politicians imposed to satisfy fearful voters. First, the child will be photographed. His or her photo will be published for the world to see. The government hit lists, called sex offender registries, will tell any would-be vigilante where to find this child. The address will be given, if the child is lucky enough to be able to live at home, and not institutionalized.
The sex offender laws will kick in and are guaranteed to destroy any ambition your child may have for success. Any attempts to better themselves, or become productive members of your community, will be throttled by these laws. Every road they try to pursue will become a dead end. It may be impossible for them to finish school. Any job they seek will require them to reveal their "sex offender" status to their employer. Any curious neighbor can find out the "crime" that was committed, though not the circumstances. Years down the road, this child, now an adult, will be listed as someone who committed lewd acts on a child. People will imagine an adult raping a child, not two children playing doctor.
Each time the child moves the police will help him feel welcomed by handing out fliers to the neighbors warning them that a "sex offender" is now living nearby. Rocks thrown through windows can be mild compared to some welcomes that are given. One young man in
Every so often he will be required to visit the police and report to them. They may show up at his home anytime they want and demand to inspect it. He could be banned from social networking websites, or from the Internet completely.
If you child grows up to have a family, a normal relationship will be forbidden. He may well be banned from all activities at his children's school. They may be in a play; he won't be allowed to watch it. If the kids play on a sport's team, their father won't be allowed to attend. Ditto for Little League. Forget having friends over for a birthday party. Dad is a pariah until he dies and his children, and his wife, will be forced to endure the torture with him.
The lucky ones barely manage to hold on. Those who are not so lucky simply end their lives. Others have the option of suicide robbed from them by vigilantes. They quickly learn to give up ambitions and dreams. To excel in life is not possible. To merely survive is hard enough. And some, robbed of all normality, robbed of all hope, mentally and emotionally raped by the state, decide they may as well become the monsters that they are imagined to be.
It takes so little for this happen to a child. A girl in school has oral sex with a boy in school. She becomes a sex offender for the rest of her life. Streaking a school event, as a practical joke, becomes a sex crime in the new
These laws are not so much protecting children from predators as they are turning them into predators. . . When you look at the ages of the offenders you see that 14-year-olds are apparently the most sexually dangerous group in
Christopher Ryan, Psychology Today - A little over a hundred years ago, John Harvey Kellogg, a physician, claimed the moral authority to instruct parents on the proper sexual education of their children. If you're unfamiliar with the writing of Kellogg and others of his day, their gloating disdain for basic human eroticism is chilling and unmistakable. In his best-selling Plain Facts for Old and Young (written on his sexless honeymoon in 1888), Kellogg offers parents guidance for dealing with their sons' natural erotic self-exploration in a section entitled Treatment for Self-Abuse and its Effects. "A remedy which is almost always successful in small boys," he writes, "is circumcision." He stipulates that, "The operation should be performed by a surgeon without administering an anaesthetic, as the brief pain attending the operation will have a salutary effect upon the mind, especially if it be connected with the idea of punishment."
If circumcising your struggling, terrified son without anesthesia wasn't quite what a parent had in mind, Kellogg recommended "the application of one or more silver sutures in such a way as to prevent erection. The prepuce, or foreskin, is drawn forward over the glans, and the needle to which the wire is attached is passed through from one side to the other. After drawing the wire through, the ends are twisted together, and cut off close. It is now impossible for an erection to occur. . . " Parents were assured that sewing their son's penis into its foreskin, "acts as a most powerful means of overcoming the disposition to resort to the practice [of masturbation]."
Lest you think Kellogg was interested only in the severe, sadistic torture of boys, in the same book he soberly advises the application of carbolic acid to the clitoris of little girls to teach them not to touch themselves. Kellogg and his like-minded contemporaries demonstrate that sexual repression is a "malady that considers itself the remedy," to paraphrase Karl Kraus' dismissal of psychoanalysis. . .
While American moralists aren't sewing boys' foreskins closed or pouring acid into the vaginas of little girls who dare to touch themselves, they continue to destroy the lives of children caught in the most innocent acts of sexual exploration. By labeling these kids "sexual offenders," the long-standing tradition of sacrificing innocents in the name of erotic hypocrisy continues. . .
Adolescents all over the country are getting into serious legal trouble for sexting one another: snapping a risque photo of themselves with their cell-phone and sending it to a friend. Turns out, in many states, these kids can be sent to prison (where sexual abuse is rampant) for photographing their own bodies (manufacturing child pornography) and sharing the photos (distributing child pornography). They're being forced to register as sex offenders despite the fact that they themselves are the victims.
Being freaked-out about sex isn't just sad and ridiculous. It leads directly to horrible abuse of people who aren't responsible for the twisted sexuality of adults.

Click Here for album credits
"A music masterpiece" - Examiner.com
"This album is brilliance... If you like Daniel Amos, you will probably love this album. If you have not been introduced to Daniel Amos, but have felt a need for intelligent alternative music that is Marianas Trench deep and heavily influenced by the greats of the 60s and 70s (without being derivative), then this is the disc you have to check out." - Down The Line Magazine
"Dig Here accomplishes something veteran bands strive for but rarely achieve. It references, literally, everything fans ever loved about the band's music and yet clearly stakes out new territory in a remarkably contemporary and relevant way... rich, eclectic and satisfying... To my ears it is the best sounding Daniel Amos record yet." - 33andathird
"Synthesizing all that's good about Daniel Amos, Dig Here Said The Angel delivers typically thought-provoking music from the band that wouldn't go away." - The Phantom Tollbooth
"It's phenomenally different, and yet still Daniel Amos at its core. The richness of sound is extraordinary... the songs are among their best..." - Tuesday Morning 3 a.m.
"...these songs offer the combination of Terry Taylor's genius lyrics backed by a group of sometimes underrated musicians..." - HM Magazine
"...as good as any album Daniel Amos has ever released and maybe as good as any Christian album released in the past 25 years. This music needs to be heard." - Christian Musician Magazine
"Daniel Amos still retains its artistic and prophetic bite..." - WORLD Magazine
"Here Taylor and Co. have released an album that is a triumph on every level � production, lyrics, musicianship, depth, artistry, and even catchy, singable hooks that are hard to get out of my head." - More of Dave
"There are times on Dig Here, Said The Angel that are as ferocious as any the band has ever recorded. Tracks like the brooding yet ultimately uplifting title cut, the punky "Now That I've Died," the power-pop "Waking Up Under Water," or the '60s-ish California-sounding "Love, Grace and Mercy"..." - Popdose Interview
"Dig Here Said the Angel... finds the veteran band in fine form with a sound that is vintage rock & roll, yet still modern." - Examiner.com
"Every track braids iridescent rays of gold and platinum, rare earths and a little dirt, into an illuminated manuscript of smoking incense." - Into the Son
"Overall -- this thing is amazing and I love it. It sounds like nothing else I've ever heard. Ever. Timeless stuff -- the best there is." - The Edge of the Dream

It has been a long time since my last post ...
... and some oof the regular posters might have wondered what happened.
Rather a lot, I suppose.
In terms of TFL - I am still catching up - all those rye posts by the bakers who attended the Hamelman class ...
Let's start with christmas - I received what seems a brain-splitting present: A voucher for a pastry course with Ghalid Assyb at Bertinet's in Bath, this was given inside a book about the DASH diet...
Why the pastry course? I never felt that I would ger a kick out of pastry, but my dear wife was convinced that I would be able to master the sweet things and have fun with them.
Why the diet book? Well, all those carbs ...
The pastry thing is getting me - and the course was a great source of knowledge and inspiration. Watching Ghalid and registering his little remarks gave me an idea about the workings of a Pastry Chef's mind.
Some time before Christmas I started already to look around for pastry books (due to my wife's nagging) and I got the volumes by Bo Friberg. I tried quite a few recipes (Lebkuchen, Cardamom buns, Black Forest Gateau...) all quite successful and with an authentic taste (being from the Black Forest it is really amazing to find an authentic recipe in an american textbook written by a swedish-american chef).
I then looked at the French edition of Cristophe Felder's Patisserie - the French food blogs are raving about this book. I pre-ordered, and I recieved the English version last week. A truly amazing book.
So, what did I learn / make at the pastry course?
- Puff pastry / laminating / millefeulle / creme mousseline
- Genoise / Biscuits a cuillere / Fruit Bavarian / Raspberry Charlotte
- Chocolate Financiers
- Fraisier cake
What did I make since the course?
I was always frightened of making croissants and the few attempts were messy and not quite satisfactory.
Today I made my second batch of Croissants since the course, using my newly gained knowledge and the recipe from Felder's book, and voila:
They taste as great as they look, and I am even very pleased with the crumb:
In Felder's book there is a simple variation with croissant dough - Lunettes, which we called "Kopenhagener" or "Pudding Brezel" in Germany - one of my alltime favourites.
Now I am making them myself %BIG SMILE%
Essentially, it is twisted croissant dough filled with pastry cream.
For a charity bake at work I made a Charlotte with black fruit (blackberries, cherries, blueberries, blue grapes), following the recipe from the pastry course:
and for home and friends - and just to try out the formula I made a batch of chocolate financiers according to Ghalid Assyb which were delicious, and I also tried Felder's recipes for chocolate financiers and vanilla financiers (the classic). All very delicious. Here the results of the Felder recipes:
And the diet book you might ask?
Well, we started it 5 weeks ago, maintained it during a vacation with my parents, and I lost around 10Kg since.
I eat a 50g of wholegrain rye bread every day, no other bread, with occasional exceptions - naturally I bake a little less, although it seems that the demand by colleagues and in the community is picking up ...
All the sweet things get eaten, just not by us alone.
The weather kept us busy as well here in the UK, and commuting was a bit of a lottery in those past weeks ...
3 cm of snow and the United Kingdon grinds to a halt (almost).
I have to go and distribute my pastries now ...

Dungeon Specific
The Rusalka is a rare corrosive foe, found principally in the Havensdale Bridge scenario. As with most monsters that incur a permanent debuff, avoiding taking damage from them is very advisable. Rusalka also leave corrosive puddles instead of blood pools. There are a number of ways to avoid these blood pools; using the WEYTWUT, WONAFYT, or PISORF glyphs to move the Rusalka before you kill it is one option. Another option is to carve an alternate path with ENDISWAL. Finally, you could use LEMMISI or BLUDTUPOWA to reveal a tile on the other side of the puddle, allowing you to "jump" over it. Curing corrosion is quite difficult, requiring a Burn Salve or a deity's boon.

zombie horror movie night @ mcCormack's irish pub tonight
Date: Oct 21, 2007
HorrorSundayz is back and it's Pat's birthday. He is world reknown for his beer intellect, beer drinking and love of zombies. In this celebration we will bring Pat's picks for your and his viewing pleasure. At 8pm we start off with the classic NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. George Romero's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD is a low-budget, homegrown classic that had great difficulty finding a distributor at the time of its release in 1968, and has since become one of the most influential horror films of all time. (Aside from its visceral impact years before realistic gore became the fashion, the film is also important for its portrayal of a black man as the protagonist during a time when race was an extremely sensitive issue in the United States.) The plot is simple: seven people secluded in a Pennsylvania farmhouse face relentless attacks by reanimated corpses seeking to eat their flesh. The group, which includes a married couple and their daughter, a pair of young lovers, and an African-American man, try to keep their sanity as the living dead keep trying to enter the house. Radio news reports tell of the plague taking over the eastern United States, while the ever-decreasing band of survivors rapidly loses ground in the battle to both keep peace with one another and stay alive.
At 10pm 28 DAYS LATER.
After breaking into a primate research facility, a group of animal rights activists discover caged chimps chained up before banks of screens displaying horrifically violent images. Ignoring the warnings of the terrified researcher who maintains the chimps are 'infected', they begin to free the animals and are immediately subjected to a bloody attack from the enraged creatures. 28 days later Cycle courier Jim (Cillian Murphy) awakes from a coma in the deserted intensive care unit of a London hospital. Mystified, he wanders the wards and corridors in search of others and eventually heads into the city streets, calling out for help. As the shadows lengthen Jim seeks shelter in a church only to find dead bodies piled in heaps on the chapel floor. A sudden noise alerts him to the presence of a priest but his lightening speed, blood stained eyes and murderous screams send Jim reeling into the street. More "infected" are attracted by the noise and Jim runs in panic and confusion as a growing flock sprint after him through the dark streets.
A sudden explosion from a makeshift bomb heralds the arrival of fellow "survivors" Selena (NAOMIE HARRIS) and Mark (NOAH HUNTLEY). Following a daring rescue they take Jim to safety and start to explain to him the nature of the infection, that it is transmitted in the blood, is overwhelming within seconds, that Britain has been overrun and that they have no way of knowing if it has spread worldwide.
At midnight 2004's DAWN OF THE DEAD. First-time director Zack Snyder remakes zombie master George A. Romero's classic 1978 gore-fest DAWN OF THE DEAD, wisely replicating only the basic elements of Romero's movie, instead sticking to his own vision of a world overrun by undead flesh-eating creatures. The action begins with nurse Ana (Sarah Polley) waking up to discover her boyfriend has become a tasty midnight snack for a formerly cute neighboring kid. To her horror, she realizes that the whole town is in a similar state of ghoulishness, until she runs into still-alive cop Kenneth (Ving Rhames); the levelheaded Michael (Jack Weber); and Andre (Mekhi Phifer), a rebel with a pregnant wife in tow. As in Romero's original, the group heads for the local mall where they barricade themselves inside. More survivors surface, while in the outside world the zombies go about their day by slowly taking over the planet. Undeterred by the odds against them, the survivors plot, scheme, and enjoy their mall paradise. As they plan their escape, some incredibly gruesome special effects are deployed, often with a dash of wry humor added for light relief. Placing the messages from Romero's version--a funny, scary look at consumerist society--on the back burner, the 2004 version of DAWN OF THE DEAD instead concentrates on delivering a witty blood-fest. The zombies appear to have taken their cues from the fast-moving corpses of Danny Boyle's 28 DAYS LATER, and are generally much more agile than their 1978 counterparts. Director Snyder gets the balance between humorous set-pieces and plot development exactly right throughout, producing an enjoyable remake that can easily hold its own alongside the deservedly hailed original film.

MIDDLEBURY — UD-3 school directors are poised to approve a draft 2013-2014 budget for Middlebury Union middle and high schools that reflects a 2.71-percent increase in spending, but officials don't want to approve the plan until they receive more solid state aid information from Montpelier.
"I think bringing (the budget) in below 3 percent still allows us to maintain our programs," said Addison Central Supervisory Union Superintendent Gail Conley.
WATERBURY (AP) — Police say they have received reports of suspicious people posing as representatives of the Vermont Department of Children and Families (DCF).
State Police spokeswoman Stephanie Dasaro said a woman and two men showed up at a Sunderland residence this past Monday, Dec. 3, and told a grandmother that a child's parents were under investigation by "child protective services."
BRISTOL — The intersection in front of Holley Hall in downtown Bristol will likely get a bit of a makeover to fix what the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) says are safety issues.
The Bristol selectboard heard two alternative designs for the intersection presented by VTrans and Stantec Consulting at the board's Monday, Dec. 3, meeting.
GOSHEN — Town officials in Goshen have approved a three-year gravel removal project on property located on Route 73.
The Goshen Zoning Board of Adjustment granted a conditional use permit for mineral extraction to property owners John Sherry, William Tessier and Clifford Bauman to mine roughly 100,000 cubic yards of gravel from their property located on the south side of Route 73, approximately 1,200 feet east of the intersection of Route 73 and Hathaway Road.

MIDDLEBURY — Three days a week, Middlebury resident Arnold Highfield makes the grueling trek to the dialysis center in Burlington where he watches his blood flow through a series of tubes into a machine where it is cleansed and returned to his body. He hopes to soon get a new kidney but in the meantime, he is not feeling sorry for himself.
WEYBRIDGE — Town officials in Weybridge have hired a certified public accountant to do an independent audit of the town's books in view of former Town Clerk/Treasurer Karen Brisson's admission last month that she had embezzled municipal funds.
Weybridge Selectwoman Gale Hurd said the selectboard has hired Tom Telling, CPA, to conduct the audit, a process that was set to begin late last week following the receipt of cancelled checks from the bank. The financial audit is expected to last four to six weeks, according to Hurd.
VERGENNES — Vergennes police last Tuesday arrested a Cornwall man at his home and charged him with aggravated sexual assault on a child younger than 10 years old in connection with an incident at a Vergennes business earlier that day.
Michael S. Wedge, 29, was lodged at the Chittenden County Correctional Facility that night for lack of $25,000 bail. The next day he pleaded not guilty in Addison Superior Court, Criminal Division, and was jailed without bail. Wedge could face a sentence of 10 years to life in prison and a fine up to $50,000 if found guilty.
BRISTOL — He is best known around town as the owner of Green Mountain Renewable Energy, but Bristol resident Peter Cassels-Brown has worn many hats. He has been a carpenter since the 1970s and has a graduate degree in meditation.
Now, he can add another occupation to the list — author.
