|Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
Ash and Pikachu have finally arrived in Striaton City. As enthusiastic and ready as he was to battle, he soon realizes that he does not know where the Gym is located. Iris then comments on Ash's behavior: typical of a 'small child', and gives a wide grin. As Axew appears from within her hair and she feeds it with the fruit she was holding, a formally-dressed young man with green hair appears, his green eyes having taken notice of Axew. He recites a short prose complimenting Axew, and then talks about the positive compatibility between Iris and her Pokémon. As Pikachu watches in doubt, it made a sound that captured the young man's attention. Eyes alight with excitement, he picks Pikachu up and examines it for a while, before returning it to his trainer.
As Ash explains where he is from, the young man introduces himself as Cilan, a Pokémon Sommelier. He then goes on to describe what a Pokémon Sommelier is. Ash became very interested and requests Cilan to examine the bond between Pikachu and him. However, at that moment, Iris reminds Ash about his purpose in Striaton City, and Cilan, who happened to know where the Striaton Gym is, led the way.
Arriving at a large, grand-looking building, Ash barges in and requests for a battle... only to find groups of people seated in tables at what seemed like a restaurant, all eyes fixed upon his questioning gaze. A red-haired and blue-haired waiter greet him, but Cilan reassures him by seating him at an empty table. The waiters then attempt to take his order, offering him Psycho Soda, economical lunch, and various other consumables, but Ash was not at all interested. Finally, after a long session of pestering, Ash loses his cool, and demands a Gym Battle by shouting. The various 'customers' (Ash notices they were all girls) in the restaurant all gathered upon hearing the words 'Gym Battle', while Ash, enraged, proceeds to take his leave.
Ash was walking towards the exit when the lights dimmed, and Cilan and the two waiters walked synchronously into an empty area, taking their positions. As a spotlight shone onto each of them, they briefly mentioned how they would battle, and revealed themselves, all three of them, to be Gym Leaders. Together, they recited 'It's showtime!', and the wall behind them receded, revealing a rocky field for battle.
Iris and the group of girls (who already changed into cheerleader outfits) proceeded to the top deck of the Gym. Meanwhile, Ash had to choose a Gym Leader as his opponent: Chili and his Template:Type2d Pansear, Cress and his Template:Type2d Panpour or Cilan and his Template:Type2d Pansage. Defeating his chosen opponent would earn him the Trio Badge. However, Ash had an inspiration: he decides to battle all three Gym Leaders. Although it was the first time the Gym ever had such a request, they allowed Ash to do so, and his badge would be earned by defeating two out of three Gym Leaders instead.
The first battle was a one-on-one battle against Chili and his Pansear. Cilan was refereeing. While the girls were cheering for Chili, Ash sends out his Tepig, clearly having decided to use Tepig for whichever his first battle was against. Starting the battle with Tackle, Tepig charged into Pansear and sent it flying into the air, but it landed softly on its feet. Chili commanded it to use Fire Punch, and with one quick blow, Tepig was sent rolling back onto the ground. Taking this opportunity to attack, Pansear followed up with Flamethrower, a streak of fire was sent streaming in Tepig's direction. Quickly, Tepig used Ember in attempt to block off the attack, but the smaller flecks of Ember was swallowed up by the oncoming Flamethrower. With a loud bang, the Flamethrower hit Tepig and whipped up the surrounding dust and sand, causing a cloud of particles to form.
Immediately, Pansear used Dig at his trainer's behest; it flipped backwards and dug a hole into the ground. As the cloud started to disperse, Tepig started looking around for its opponent and found it: suddenly appearing right below its feet. Tepig was sent flying into the air, spinning and landed with a thud on its belly. As the Fire Pig Pokémon struggled to get up, the cheerleaders cheered Chili and Pansear on, and Ash warned Tepig to be more careful. Regardless, Chili told Pansear to continue using Dig. Ash, at that instant, told Tepig to keep running, hoping it could avoid getting hit from underneath. For a moment it seemed like it worked, Tepig kept running and Pansear dared not to surface, knowing it would be extremely difficult to hit a running target. However, Pansear chose to appear in front of Tepig, causing it to trip and to be flung into the air. Using Dig once more, Pansear disappeared into the hole it came from. As Tepig was soon told not to let Pansear escape, it dived and disappeared into the hole following Pansear.
Chili watched in shock and Pansear emerged, Tepig biting onto its tail. As Pansear attempted to free itself from Tepig's grasp, it quickly did a back-flip and landed onto the ground, causing Tepig to land together, but twice as hard. Even though Tepig seemed to have suffered quite a fair bit of damage from the flip, it still would not relinquish its bite on Pansear's tail, its teeth sunk into its flesh like a vice. As Ash encourages Tepig to carry on, the Fire Pig Pokémon quickly got up and started spinning Pansear wildly in a circle, like a giant ball spinning at the end of a long thread. Finally, whenPansear had gained enough speed for a decent throw, Tepig released the grip and flung it across the field.
While Pansear struggled to regain balance, Tepig doused it with flames from another Ember and rammed it all the way to the wall with a Tackle attack, causing it to faint. Tepig then runs back to Ash and rejoins him and his Pikachu. Cilan declares Pansear unable to battle, and the cheerleaders all sigh in disappointment. Chili recalls his Pansear, and Ash recalls Tepig. Cress then steps up to battle.
Meanwhile, the Team Rocket trio, Jessie, James and Meowth, are walking along the streets of Striaton City, dressed in black overcoats. They were told to contact the Team Rocket Headquarters the moment they got there, at a specified time and place. As they walk towards the side of a dark alley, they made a turn into it and squatted near a drain cover, pleased at being punctual.
The cheerleaders are now cheering on Cress and his Panpour. Ash chooses Pikachu for battle, and starts by telling it to do a Quick Attack. Panpour responds to Cress's command, creating multiple copies of itself: a Double Team attack. Pikachu passes through one of the clones of Panpour, and as it was doing so, Panpour and all its clones launched a Scratch attack in mid-air, its speed matching Pikachu's. As Pikachu lands on the ground, hurt, Cress comments on Pikachu's typing advantage, which would not be very useful against his Panpour. He then tells Panpour to use Water Gun.
Pikachu swiftly dodges the jets of water aimed at it, jumping backwards and sideways on the rocks in the field. As Pikachu readies a Thunderbolt attack, Panpour aims its Water Gun at Pikachu's feet, causing it to lose focus as it tries to steady itself. Following that, it aims another Water Gun at Pikachu and it hit, sending Pikachu flying... In an instant, Panpour caught up with Pikachu in mid-air and hit Pikachu with multiple Scratch attacks. While the cheerleaders delight in hushed voices, Pikachu lies sprawled on the ground, struggling to get back on its feet.
Ash commands Pikachu to use Volt Tackle, and Cress starts contemplating; he had already developed strategies against Template:Type2d opponents. With a big smile and glowing hands, Panpour pummels the ground, causing a lane of mud to form in Pikachu's direction. As Pikachu slips and falls onto the mud created by Mud Sport, Panpour launches a Water Gun attack and sends it flying across the field once again, eventually causing Pikachu to faint. Cilan declares Pikachu unable to battle, and the cheerleaders go wild with excitement.
Meanwhile, the Team Rocket trio are at the bottom of the sewers talking to Giovanni. As they were told to proceed to the Site of Dreams, a place where 'the Energy of Tomorrow' is produced, he reminds them about Team Rocket's goals and explains the importance of the mission. He logs off and sends them the assembly instructions for the machine they need, while the Team Rocket trio, determined, now heads for the Site of Dreams through the sewers.
For Ash's last battle at Striaton Gym, he sends out Oshawott against Cilan's Pansage, and the people watching him exclaim in surprise. Iris thought that it would be better if Pidove was sent out, Cress had no clue as to why Ash made such a decision, and Oshawott, which opened its eyes and finally realized who its opponent was, decides to be a supporter to whichever Pokémon Ash would hopefully send out, and stood behind its trainer. As Oshawott tries to avoid battling, Ash and Pikachu pushes it into the field, reminding him how strong and brave it was when it saved Pikachu and Axew from Team Rocket's captivity. After much reconciliation, Oshawott promptly changes its mind and decides to fight for Ash.
For a start, Oshawott attempts to use Tackle, but Pansage dodges it by shifting to the side, causing Oshawott to be extremely surprised at Pansage's non-aggressive response. Pansage then fires a flurry of seeds from its mouth at Oshawott, and Oshawott tries in desperation to avoid the attack by running away. As Oshawott lies on the ground, its back swollen at the area where the Bullet Seed attack hit, Cilan talks about Ash's lack of affinity with Oshawott. He then tries to show the contrast with his Pansage, and tells his Pokémon to move closer towards Oshawott.
As Pansage did so, Oshawott squealed in fear, seemingly looking at something revolting or disgusting. Pansage then started Biting its head, and as the Sea Otter Pokémon ran up and down, arms flailing and tail wriggling, trying to shake its opponent off its head, it was not able to see clearly and hit a rock, while Pansage jumped off and landed on another rock further away. Ash tries to encourage Oshawott and tells it to use Water Gun, but the Grass Monkey Pokémon dodges the jets of water by repeatedly jumping and leaping, thereby causing Oshawott to feel tired after consuming a lot of effort and energy. Ash pushes Oshawott on, telling it to aim carefully, yet none of the jets managed to hit Pansage. Finally, it seemed like it was the opportune moment when Pansage made a leap greater than it did, and with a precisely and carefully aimed shot, Pansage was hit in mid-air. Oshawott was elated.
However, that did not seem to be the end. Cilan had decided to intensify the battle by asking Pansage to collect energy from the sunlight above, and the cheerleaders thereafter became much more excited. As Iris now became worried, Cilan announces the name of the attack: SolarBeam! Collecting a ball of light at the turf on its head, Pansage grabs it, pulls back and shot it at Oshawott. As the light snakes its way across the field, Oshawott, now stunned, is shocked at the thought of what is to come. What would happen to Oshawott and will Ash be able to obtain the Trio Badge?

♫ He was born a Rambling Man… ♫
These TWO thoughts are the types of crazy shit my as usual over-caffeinated mind comes up with late at night.
While watching episode 5 of season 4 of The Guild tonight I realized that Felicia Day looks like the perfect star for a re-make of Sega's Night Trap. I mean, they just re-made Piranha and they're going to make a movie based on the friggin' Magic 8 Ball… So things can't get any worse.
Or can they?
I'm currently replaying the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance— but this time on the 360 as opposed to the PS2. Alliance is based on 2004's X-Men Legends gameplay… But I remember when the first press information came out for X-Men Legends back in '02. Back then the game was tentatively titled X-Men RPG. Well, that's some funny shit… Cause I thought it was going to be like a JRPG with turn-based combat.
I kept imagining Cyclops as Cloud— always moping about everything but still kicking ass. Or Wolverine as Barrett– always cussing and killing people with little Marlene as Jubilee. How about Jean Grey as Aeris… Because she always dies just when you need her the most?

Lamplighters Music Theatre to Stage PRINCESS IDA, Now thru 2/17
The Lamplighters celebrate their 60th Season with Gilbert & Sullivan's delightful tale of cross-dressing princes and the feminists who love them, PRINCESS IDA. This is the show that the Lamplighters took to England in 1995, and won the grand prize at the International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival tonight, Jan 25-27 at Lesher Center for the Arts in Walnut Creek, Feb 1-3 at YBCA in San Francisco, Feb 9-10 at the Bankhead in Livermore, and Feb 16-17 at Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts.For tickets ($15-$59) and information, the public may call the Lesher box office at (925) 943-7469, the YBCA box office at (415) 978-2787, the Bankhead box office at (925) 373-6800, the MVCPA box office at (650) 903-6000, or visit lamplighters.org.A 20 year old treaty states that Princess Ida and Prince Hilarion are to marry when they come of age. That time has come, but Ida refuses to honor a commitment made on her behalf when she was an infant, and has gone off to the country to start a women's university. There she teaches an interesting variation on Darwin's theory: that man -- not woman, just man -- is descended from apes, and thus are inferior to women. The Prince, on the other hand, is an unabashed romantic, and decides to woo Ida and win her love. He and two friends make their way to the university, where they disguise themselves as women in order to enroll and get close to her...

MUNICH/FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Weekend news of 15,000 job cuts at Germany's Siemens has put the German engineering group's new chief executive, Joe Kaeser, on a collision course with workers' representatives only two months after he took the helm.
"We oppose a margin-driven job-cutting program. Siemens needs a sustainable and future-oriented program that focuses on people and not just on margins," works council chief Lothar Adler said on Monday.
Siemens, Germany's second-biggest company by market value, aims to save 6 billion euros ($8.1 billion) to close the gap with more profitable rivals such as U.S.-based General Electric and Switzerland's ABB.
It had so far declined to say how many jobs would go as part of the program, announced under former CEO Peter Loescher, who was ousted and replaced by Kaeser following a fierce boardroom battle two months ago.
On Sunday, a company spokesman told Reuters that Siemens would shed an overall 15,000 jobs, or about 4 percent of its overall workforce, half of which were already gone.
A third of the job cuts are in Siemens' German home market. Of those, 2,000 are to be at the industrial products business, and 1,400 jobs each in the energy and infrastructure businesses.
Kaeser faces the challenge of whipping into shape a lumbering conglomerate with almost 370,000 workers, 78 billion euros of annual sales and products ranging from gas turbines to high-speed trains and ultrasound machines, as well as regaining investor confidence.
When he took office, he said he would continue his predecessor's savings program, but also vowed to put Siemens back on an "even keel", end years of continual restructuring and do away with a focus on short-sighted margin targets.
Under Loescher, Siemens announced the massive savings program and said it aimed to push up the margin on its core operating profit to at least 12 percent from 9.5 percent by 2014. It was forced to abandon that target in June as its main markets remained weaker than expected.
"This (savings) program neither reached the target of increasing Siemens' margin in the short term nor does it appear that the goal of improving complicated processes has seriously been tackled," deputy works council chief Birgit Steinborn said.
In the first nine months of its financial year, which ends on Monday, Siemens' profit margin shrank to 5.7 percent due to project charges and weak demand for industrial products such as automation and drive technologies.
Kepler Cheuvreux analyst Hans-Joachim Heimbuerger affirmed his "buy" recommendation on Siemens stock and said the headcount reduction would help the company improve its operating profit per employee compared with rivals.
In its last quarter, Siemens' operating profit per employee stood at 2,728 euros, about 13 percent below ABB and 70 percent below GE.
($1 = 0.7385 euros)

Thanks to Amy of We Tree for the "52 weeks" ideas and Thomas Macentee of GeneaBloggers for providing reminders.
Week 3: Assess yourself! You're great at researching everyone else's history, but how much of your own have you recorded? Do an assessment of your personal records and timeline events to ensure your own life is as well-documented as that of your ancestors. If you have a genealogy blog, write about the status of your own research and steps you may take to fill gaps and document your own life.
The only reason I even dare to participate in challenge is that thanks to starting the Memory Monday series last January, I have actually been writing down memories on a fairly regular basis. I'd give myself maybe a B+ for this part (missed a few Mondays).
The documenting part is where things fall apart a bit. All right, a lot. I have quite a few documents lying around in various parts of the house, and that is the entire problem. They are mostly stored away in different file folders and boxes which are located in too many different places and have not been organized in a logical fashion. I would give myself a D for this part.
Here is what I need to do.
1. I am tempted to say that the first thing I need to do is to clean and organize every last square inch of our house from attic to basement. In order to put all the documents, pictures, etc. into one common area in an organized way, I need to have that common area. And it is just not there. I am a bit of a packrat, and my husband and younger daughter could teach a packrat a thing or ten about accumulating stuff. (Older daughter mostly goes to the other extreme – she is very ready to throw things out, even things that I think deserve to stay for sentimental reasons. As the family historian, I actually need to encourage her to go the other way just a little bit.)
Two or three times previously, between my daughters' toddler and teen years, I did this very thing – clean and throw out stuff from top to bottom. But I just don't have that "cleaning frenzy" thing in me anymore. It has to be done gradually. And I intend to limit the area for storage of the relevant materials to my home office.
So this gargantuan effort is going to take the form of slowly but surely removing from my home office most of the items that are not personal records and pictures or books and documents related to genealogy and family history. ("Supporting" equipment and items (computer, office supplies, etc.) and language reference materials can stay.) As things go out of the office, the personal and family history documents will be brought into the office from other parts of the house. This will be done shelf by shelf, drawer by drawer.
2. The next part is the timeline. Some can be done from memory, and for the rest I'll need to use family records and mementos (letters, transcripts, etc.) and some online research (to recall the names of four of the five junior high schools I attended, for instance).
3. Oh, yes, and then there are pictures: printing, sorting, entering into proper storage receptacles, either albums or boxes, and labeling. I can't even go there, yet.
Ouch. That's a lot. I should clear my head a bit before I even start to get organized. Time to take a nap.

52 Weeks to Better Genealogy: Assess Yourself (Challenge #3)
2 comments:
I agree with you completely. I have thought about it but somehow there is always something else to do. That project will take a year not the allotted week. Guess I should get started but should we put it on pencil and paper. I could write things but over time it would get lost in cyberspace.ReplyDelete
This one definitely is going to be hard to get done. There is just so much mental and physical organization involved. I'm glad at least that I'm not the only one with this problem.ReplyDelete

Today's Family: Essential to God's Plan
25 May 2012
"The family unit is fundamental not only to society and to the Church but also to our hope for eternal life," President Henry B. Eyring, First Counselor in the First Presidency, says. "We begin to practice in the family, the smaller unit, what will spread to the Church and to the society in which we live in this world, which will then be what we practice in families bound together forever by covenants and by faithfulness."

Strengthen Youth, Strengthen Families
18 May 2012
One of the best ways to strengthen families is to strengthen youth through regular religious practices in the home, according to today's prophets and apostles. President Henry B.

Today's Family: The Eternal Role of Mothers
11 May 2012
"There is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood," says Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. "While women live in homes under many different circumstances—married, single, widowed, or divorced, some with children and some without—all are beloved of God, and He has a plan for His righteous daughters to receive the highest blessings of eternity."

Power to Overcome Pornography
2 May 2012
President Packer said that the patrons of pornography not only damage marital relationships, but they also lose the Spirit of Christ and forfeit the power of the priesthood. However, he stressed that we all have the ability to choose—and we will be blessed if we choose to never partake of such evils, or, if already involved, if we will repent and forsake them.

15 Offbeat Holidays You Can Celebrate in October
Need a reason to celebrate this month? Look no further than the list below.
October 1st: National Homemade Cookies Day
Getty Images
Take a knee, Little Debbie, today we only want our tasty circular treats fresh from the oven. If you aren't a master of the chocolate chip, take the day to make a little mess in the kitchen and give yourself a lesson in "from scratch." Or for the less motivated set, make sure to butter up that special baker in your life to make some holiday treats for the both of you.
October 2nd: National Name Your Car Day
Or as KITT from Knight Rider calls it: National Me Day. In case you have not bestowed your wheels with a pet name yet, on this holiday you have no excuses. Don't let the tiny detail of not owning an automobile stop you from celebrating. Since there's no real origin story to Name Your Car Day, there are no rules: name your friend's car, or your neighbor's, or even a taxi!
October 4th: National Taco Day
The crisp autumn air of early October might not exactly scream "tacos," but then again, why not? Skip the local fast food taqueria (unless, of course, they're giving the tasty treats away), and go on a scavenger hunt for the best taco in your town. Or host a taco night for a couple of close friends. Tacos are nothing if not about bringing people closer together.
October 6th: Mad Hatter Day
In John Tenniel's illustrations of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, he drew a white slip from the cap of the Mad Hatter that read, "In this style 10/6." What better reason do you need to set aside the sixth of October to hold a merry tea party, be a little foolish, and wear an oversized hat? Of course, if you're European you may argue that these celebrations are more suitably held on the tenth of June. Cultural confusion—classic Mad Hatter.
October 8th: Canadian Thanksgiving
Our neighbors to the north have their own day of giving thanks for the harvest, and they beat us to the punch by nearly a month and a half. In the late 1950s, the Canadian government declared the second Monday in every October Thanksgiving day. Though it does not mark a specific gathering of two groups like the U.S. version, Canadian Thanksgiving offers a great excuse to gobble down a turkey dinner in the name of neighborly solidarity.
October 12th: International Moment of Frustration Scream Day
Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, just stop and really let it out. We're told you can hear the collective scream from space.
October 14th: national lowercase day
proper nouns be damned! today capital is purely an economic asset. your middle school grammar teacher might balk at such a holiday, but the shift button on your keyboard will thank you for the day off.
October 15th: Global Handwashing Day
We certainly scratched our heads a few times about this one, because shouldn't every day be global handwashing day? But an organization by the apropos name of The Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap felt it necessary to create an entire day of awareness to spread the gospel of clean hands. Anyone can celebrate, and public health benefits. It's a win-win.
October 16th: National Dictionary Day
Word nerds rejoice! Today you may proudly pore over the pages of your Merriam-Webster and Oxford's alike. Celebrate the holiday by learning 20 new words, and impress your peers and colleagues for life. Or at least for 20 minutes.
October 18th: National No Beard Day
We suspect that fellows unlucky in the facial hair-growing department might have something to do with this holiday. Regardless, if you are an offbeat holiday observer with facial hair, that chin strap has got to go. Those are the rules. A fresh start for your face could translate to a fresh start for your life. Which brings us to…
October 19th: Evaluate Your Life Day
This may seem better suited for post-New Years Eve, but get your existential ducks in a row early this year. Who are you? What do you want? Where do you want to go? These are just a few questions to get you started down the actualization rabbit hole. By January 1, you'll have it all worked out!
October 20th: Information Overload Day
Knowledge economy research and advisory firm Basex estimates that "a minimum of 28 billion hours is lost each year to Information Overload in the United States." For example, trudging through 100 email messages can suck up half of your workday. Reduce the noise, starting today. The Information Overload Challenge suggests you send 10% fewer email messages beginning on—but not ending on—the 20th of October. For example, if you were going to email this post to 100 of your closest friends, instead email it to 90. (We won't tell if you break the rule just this once.)
October 24th: National Bologna Day
This distant cousin of the Charcuterie family is far less pretentious in taste than its name might imply. Bologna has roots in Bologna, Italy, derived from a sausage made there called mortadella. These days, it's more humble, and commonly associated with cheeses of the Kraft Singles variety. It also can be a colloquial expression meaning "full of it," which you just might be after a holiday of eating lots of bologna.
October 26th (2012): Nevada Day
A legal holiday in Nevada, this day commemorates its entry into statehood and frontier roots. It became the official 36th state on October 31st, 1864. But, due to that pesky other holiday falling on the same date known as "Halloween," state voters decided in 1999 to observe the holiday on the last Friday of every October with parades, concerts, balls, and a day off of work. For those Nevadan purists, 10/31 is still technically Nevada Day.
October 30th: Mischief Night
AKA the Devil's Night or "Hell Night." Halloween might yield some frightening costumes and even more frightening levels of high fructose corn syrup, but the night before is when the real (dark) magic happens. In the United States, teenage hooligans prowl their suburban streets with toilet paper, eggs, and, well, mischief in their hearts. Unless you enjoy a good prank, we suggest you stay inside and don't answer the doorbell.

12 Proposed U.S. States That Didn't Make The Cut

"Perioperative Nurse Week ( Nov. 8-14 ), previously known as "Operating Room Nurse Week" has been celebrated nationwide since 1979. The recognition week was renamed by the national association to more accurately reflect the broad spectrum of patient care services provided to surgical patients before, during and after procedures.
This year's theme, "Perioperative Nurses: The Freedom to Speak Out" conveys the important role Perioperative registered nurses provide as patient advocates and the role they play in caring for patients before, during and after a surgical intervention. Perioperative nurses have a long tradition of working toward patient safety and improving the quality of patient care.
These highly-trained registered nurses will host the event to share their professional pride and educate the public about their contributions to quality patient care. The nurses will offer demonstrations of medical equipment and instrumentation along with guided tours of the operating and recovery rooms.
"The open house is also an excellent opportunity for students who are interested in a career as an operating room nurse to learn more about the field," said Senior Vice President Perioperative Services, Michael McCarry "There is a tremendous demand for nurses because of the aging of the Baby Boomers. We are pleased to share our knowledge and experience with students to help them consider Perioperative careers and nursing as a profession."
The event gives people an opportunity to become familiar with the hospital's surgical and recovery facilities when they are well to help allay their anxieties in the event that they ever need surgery.
"When you are faced with the prospect of surgery, it's important to know that you can rely on the skills, knowledge, and expertise of Perioperative registered nurses," McCarry said.
The program is free. No advance registration is required. Guests must be 13 years or older. Tours will start in the Perioperative Staff Lounge on the third floor of the Guggenheim Pavilion. Refreshments will be served.
For additional information, contact Caridad Alvarez-Figueroa at 212-241-5251 and email@example.com.

Katie Branic has changed the brand of makeup she uses more than a dozen times. The 23-year-old also recently switched to baby shampoo and even dropped gluten from her diet. Branic, of Worthington, has contact dermatitis, an allergic reaction caused by direct contact with a substance. The red, itchy rash you get after touching poison ivy is contact dermatitis. So are the bumps caused by latex gloves. Those are easy ones.
Katie Branic has changed the brand of makeup she uses more than a dozen times.
The 23-year-old also recently switched to baby shampoo and even dropped gluten from her diet.But no matter what Branic does, she can�t stop the red, scaly rash that forms on her eyelids and around her lips.
�I can tell you lots of tears were shed from frustration over this,� said Branic, an information-technology analyst for a Columbus-area financial institution. �Makeup couldn�t cover it up anymore. I had to do something.�
Branic, of Worthington, has contact dermatitis, an allergic reaction caused by direct contact with a substance.
The red, itchy rash you get after touching poison ivy is contact dermatitis. So are the bumps caused by latex gloves. Those are easy ones.
The list of substances that can cause the condition is seemingly endless. And to make matters worse, anyone can become allergic to nearly anything at any time.
That�s why contact dermatitis ranks among the top 10 reasons people visit primary-care physicians and is among the most-common reasons for work-related disability.For doctors and patients alike, the condition can be frustrating. Creams, lotions and even steroids can help control symptoms, but the underlying cause and its effects might linger for years.Branic had seen three doctors.
None could help. Then she was referred to Dr. Matt Zirwas, a dermatologist and director of Ohio State University�s Contact Dermatitis Center.
�Contact dermatitis kind of falls between the cracks between allergists and dermatologists, so it goes unnoticed and not treated so many times,� said Zirwas, who has spent the past eight years dedicated to solving mysterious rashes.The work has earned him a reputation among colleagues and his staff.
�I call him the Sherlock Holmes of skin allergies,� said Denise Close, Zirwas� physician assistant. �He will figure out the allergies no one else has been able to.�
But before we get to how Zirwas cracks the tough cases, it�s important to look at why patients end up in his office.Susan Nedorost, the president of the American Contact Dermatitis Society, said one reason is that most rashes don�t appear right away. And many are caused by something a patient has used for years.
But what makes it even more difficult is that most people aren�t allergic to one product. Instead, they are allergic to specific chemicals, some that stretch 20 letters long and are nearly impossible to distinguish in most physician offices.One textbook contains more than 1,000 pages of substances that can cause contact dermatitis.
�It�s very difficult for patients to deduce the cause � much harder to be their own detective,� said Nedorost, a professor of dermatology at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland.Few dermatologists do the skin-allergy work that Zirwas does to track down the cause of a patient�s contact dermatitis.
Patients travel to Ohio State from Pennsylvania, Kansas and even Alaska to see him.
Over the years, Zirwas has tied allergies to the glue in a patient�s shoes, dyes in clothing and even a chemical found in the black rubber on escalator hand rails.�It�s the hidden exposure in everyday things,� he said.
Once patients get to Zirwas, they undergo an initial consultation to figure out what to test for. Then they undergo patch-testing, during which discs that contain potential allergens are taped to their backs for two days to see what they react to.Branic recently was tested for 103 allergens.
Zirwas said he is focusing on chemicals in the makeup and fragrances she wears.She said she is tired of having to take off work because of the rashes.
�It�s so unpredictable, and I always have my fingers and toes crossed that it won�t flare up,� Branic said. �But that�s no way to live life.�
So far, Branic has learned that she is mildly allergic to a few fragrances. But Zirwas isn�t convinced those are the only culprits.He said he will continue to work with Branic until he cracks the code. Once he does, she will be told how to find products that don�t contain any allergens that trigger her rashes.
�For the people who have this, it�s one of the very, very few things in medicine we essentially have a cure for,� Zirwas said. �There�s nothing else where we can say, �Just make these changes, and you will never have to deal with this ever again.�??�

15. Dimples
Dimples are a dent in the skin of someone's face, and in the emotional armor of someone trying not to fall in love with him. Don't fight it. You've already lost.
14. Shoulders
Good, strong shoulders are great because they're needed to carry things like DIY supplies, groceries for a delicious home-cooked meal, and you, should you be feeling ill/sleepy.
13. Being a really calm, good driver
A guy who can keep his cool behind the wheel is a guy who can keep his cool in all kinds of situations. But we're talking about driving right now. Read the heading and stop changing the subject already.
12. Lips
Good lips can be used for any variety of things, all of them extremely sexy and attractive. Bad lips can and will only be used to verbally question your life decisions, so steer clear.
11. Butts
Guy's butts don't come under nearly as much scrutiny as those of their female counterparts. If this list is anything to go by (which, and I cannot stress this enough, it is) then that's because they simply aren't as good. Step it up, dudes.

The Playhouse in San Antonio is Seeing RED
BroadwayWorld - San Antonio will sadly be unable to review Red, John Logan's Tony Award winning play which opened at The Playhouse this past weekend.
However, Jenni Morin and the team at Theatre For Change have allowed us to re-post the following article about the show. BroadwayWorld would like to thank Ms. Morin and the Theatre For Change team for their permission to re-publish the following piece.

Originally published at www.theatreforchange.org
Enveloped by the darkness, an ember burns. Mark Rothko, played by Andrew Thornton, surveys his works as if to take an inventory. A young man in a suit enters, waits awkwardly at the entrance until daring to interrupt the artist's thoughts with a knock. This awkward apprentice (Ken, played by Rodman Bolek) is motioned over to contemplate a painting. "What do you see?" Rothko asks. "Red."
Red opens at The Playhouse Cellar Theatre on Friday, Jan. 25 and runs through Feb. 17 with performances at 8 p.m. on Friday & Saturday and 2:30 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, visit www.theplayhousesa.org.

Nikki and Victor discuss Adam at the ranch. She knows he's hurting knowing that if he'd told the police about Adam in time he might still be alive. She says she won't tell Vikki and Nick that he knew, but warns Jack will tell the world. Victor doesn't give a damn what Jack thinks. Nikki has a check-up with Dr. Costner and assures Victor she'll report back - she knows what it's like not to get the whole truth from your spouse.
Y&R Recap: Safe Haven.

In the corridor, Stitch tells Kelly he knows her and believes she slept with Billy. Kelly admits they had one night together. Stitch tells her to leave Billy alone and not make it worse. She responds, "You're going to preach to me about morality?" He says he's not the enemy; never was. Kelly tells him to stop playing the victim - she's not the reason his wife wants nothing to do with him. Nikki arrives as Stitch warns Kelly not to take 'that guy' to bed again. Nikki joins them, compliments Stitch, and chats with Kelly about Adam and the Delia Foundation before excusing herself.
At Jabot, Hilary and Jack talk about Adam. Jack marvels that Adam watched him sign the legal guardianship papers for Connor knowing he'd taken his niece.

Chelsea says they know what happened must have been an accident, but what about what the rest of the world will think. Sharon wants to discuss a memorial. Chelsea says there won't be one - Adam's still alive. She thinks she saw Adam last night when she dozed off. Sharon shares about seeing Cassie sometimes - it's a trick your brain plays on you. They discuss the past and their love for Adam. The doorbell rings. Sharon goes to check Connor. Chelsea lets Victor in. He invites Chelsea to come live in the 'safe haven' of the ranch. Sharon reappears and says that's the last place Adam would want his wife and child. She reminds Chelsea it was the thing Adam feared the most. Victor wants to take Chelsea and Connor to the ranch. Jack appears. "There's no way you're going anywhere with that little boy." He warns Chelsea about trusting Victor. Sharon tells Chelsea to listen to Jack, and leaves.

Chelsea tries to get Victor to leave, but he vows to protect her and Connor and offers to have a house built next to the stables. Chelsea looks at her ring. Elsewhere, Adam's bloodied hand with his wedding band on moves in the snow.
Leslie finds Neil in the park. He confronts her about not showing up for the meeting with David Tutera. She apologizes - it slipped her mind. Neil says it's their wedding, how could it just slip her mind? He jokes about circus performers at their reception and then seriously asks where her heart is in all of this. He thinks she doesn't really want to marry him. She admits the wedding may not be happening. She doesn't see the point of marriage. Neil thinks she doesn't love him enough. She counters that she loves him enough she pretended to care about getting married when it's not who she is. She asks him to consider that maybe there's another way. Leslie tells him as long as it's just the two of them, she's all in with whatever he wants. They kiss.
Nikki arrives home and seems to be in pain.

Hundreds of community members clutching American flags packed McCambridge Park on Monday as elected officials honored generations of men and women who've fought wars to defend the United States.
"You are our heroes," a kindergartner at St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic School chirped into the microphone, just before she and her classmates sang "God Bless the USA" for the crowd.
At Burbank's annual Veterans Day Ceremony -- hosted by the Burbank Veterans Committee and the city on the day after the actual holiday -- officials commemorated service members from each branch of the military: the Army, Coast Guard, Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps.
"This is your day -- enjoy it," said Burbank Veterans Committee Chair Mickey DePalo, just before Burbank High School's Gentlemen Octet sang the national anthem.
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) recalled a young marine he met who was returning home from a 16-month stint overseas, only to have his wife be deployed shortly after. He remembered the sergeant who, whenever he heard a Honda Civic car door slam, thought it sounded like a mortar explosion and "felt like hitting the deck."
"I've met some of the most courageous, bright, dedicated young people in places like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and Iraq," Schiff said.
Mayor Dave Golonski called on residents to more actively support troops in the field and veterans who have returned home.
"Maybe it's inviting your neighbors over to write letters to people in the service," he said. "Maybe it's holding a little party collecting items Hands Across the Battlefield is looking for."
Since forming in 2001, Hands Across the Battlefield has shipped more than 50 tons of items to troops overseas, DePalo said.
"We need to wage a war to help our returning veterans -- it needs to be a multi-front war with lots of troops," Golonski said. "You are the troops that we need."
[For the Record Nov. 13: An earlier version of this story mistakenly excluded the Navy from the list of military branches.]

Loss of Appetite During Lung Cancer Treatment
What should a lung cancer patient do if they are losing too much weight? How can they overcome a loss of appetite?
Ellen Sweeney, RD, Registered Dietitian, responds:
Many lung cancer patients are noted to have lost weight prior to their cancer diagnosis, which is often due to the effects that the disease itself has on their body. Unfortunately, many patients lose even more weight during their lung cancer treatment, and inadequate calorie intake is a major reason for this. Additionally, to recover from the side effects of treatments like chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery, patients often require more calories than they otherwise would simply to maintain their weight. Poor appetite, pain, nausea, and loss of taste for foods are common side effects of lung cancer and its treatment, all of which can cause a decrease in food intake. Before addressing food and calorie intake, pain and nausea need to be managed. Once these are under control, consuming the proper foods and liquids for adequate calorie intake and weight maintenance is recommended. The diet should consist of small, frequent, high calorie meals and snacks. Small portions work best with reduced appetite, and the higher the calories the better. I recommend reviewing "How to Increase Calories" in the Eating Hints For Cancer Patients booklet. This same booklet may also be available for free in your cancer center. Use of added butter, oils, cream, and cheese in foods are encouraged to increase calorie intake. Liquid supplements such as Boost Plus® and Ensure Plus® two to three times daily between meals are also helpful to add extra caloric and nutrient needs. If poor appetite and weight loss persist even after using these tips, an appetite medication, such as Megace®, may be appropriate. This can be discussed with your oncologist.

Ma'a Nonu's career with the Blues remains in jeopardy. The 30-year-old has had second thoughts about a handshake deal to complete his second season and is thinking about a switch to the Highlanders instead.
That decision has annoyed the Blues because they had channelled their player recruitment to other positions once they believed Nonu was staying.
When Nonu gave his verbal assurance he would play for John Kirwan in the first year for his coaching group, it balanced the disappointment felt when Mils Muliaina could not break his contract in Japan for a final year with his original Blues franchise.
Now with Nonu having a rethink, the Blues feel they have been left with little available experienced midfield talent, if needed, to help nurture their young recruits.
A few weeks ago there were still a few players on the market like Hadleigh Parkes, Bundee Aki or Shaun Treeby they could have approached, but in the interim those players have been contracted to other franchises.
That has upset the Blues who blame the lack of deadline for the ongoing delays and uncertainty. They were assured Nonu was staying but with the renewed doubts, the Blues began to stew.
They were concerned that All Blacks' needs superseded the operations of every other rugby side.
They point out that Daniel Carter was allowed his sabbatical, Richie McCaw has his lined up next year as the Super 15 continues while Sonny Bill Williams was given a short deal to tide the All Blacks over this season.
Nonu's indecision has bitten into the Blues' plans.
There was a late attempt yesterday to try and reach some compromise as Nonu and his representative met with the NZRU for several hours in Christchurch.
By then though the Blues patience had withered and their annoyance risen about the shifting deadline.
They want one deadline for any transfers and point out that some of the All Blacks seem to be making their own arrangements.
The Blues have midfield backs like Frances Saili, Malaki Fekitoa, Rene Ranger and George Moala but they might have hung onto someone like Parkes or signed Aki if they had known Nonu could move.
After giving the Blues his verbal assurance about turning out next season, Nonu went away on All Black duty in Argentina and South Africa and apparently had a rethink.
The more he talked with those teammates the more he felt he might be better to play alongside more experienced men like Tamati Ellison, Hosea Gear, Colin Slade, Ben Smith and Aaron Smith at the Highlanders while Tony Woodcock, Andrew Hore and Adam Thomson were other cronies in the pack.
Ideally, Nonu wants to play for the Hurricanes but after 110 games for that franchise he and others like Piri Weepu were sent on their way last year by coach Mark Hammett. A return is infeasible.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – Adam Scott still had the lead at Bay Hill on Saturday. At least five other players suddenly have a realistic chance at winning.
Scott, who started the third round with a seven-shot lead, missed three par putts inside 8 feet and had to settle for a 1-under 71, which narrowed his lead to three shots over Keegan Bradley going into the final round at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
The greens were firmer than ever after three days of sunshine, though the pins were accessible and allowed for good scoring. Several players took advantage. Scott did not. His score was helped by a pair of long birdie putts on the back nine.
Bradley's approach to the 18th narrowly cleared the rocks that frame the lake, leaving him a 4-foot birdie putt for a 6-under 66. He will be paired with Scott in the final round, with much at stake for both of them.
A victory for Scott should push him to No. 1 in the world when he arrives at Augusta National to defend his title in the Masters. Bradley hasn't won anywhere in the world since the Bridgestone Invitational in 2012.
Scott was at 15-under 201.
Bradley isn't the only player who now has a chance.
Matt Every (66) and Jason Kokrak (67) were four shots behind, both going for their first PGA Tour victory. Chesson Hadley and Francesco Molinari of Italy each had a 69 and were another shot behind. Hadley, who won the Puerto Rico Open two weeks ago, can qualify for the Masters with a high finish. He likely would need to be in sixth place or better to be solidly inside the top 50 in the world.
Scott was never satisfied with the seven-shot lead, and he still felt comfortable with a three-shot advantage going to Sunday.
When you've got the lead, you have to work for it,'' he said. ''I'm still in good shape.''
Five holes into the third round, his seven-shot lead already had been trimmed to one. Scott three-putted from 60 feet on the opening hole, an indication of how fast the greens have become at Bay Hill, and he hit a poor chip to 12 feet on the fifth hole to drop another shot. Hadley applied the early pressure with four birdies through the sixth hole to get within one shot.
Scott laid up on the par-5 sixth and hit wedge to 2 feet. And after a few long birdie putts on the 10th and 15th holes restored the cushion, he two-putted from 60 feet for birdie on the par-5 16th to bring his lead back to five shots.
Bradley birdied the 18th. Scott missed a 5-foot par putt on the 17th, and then the 33-year-old Australian nearly had one more wobble. His birdie putt on the 18th slid about 7 feet by the hole. Scott made that coming back for par, which he hopes will be a small measure of momentum he can carry into the final round.
''I missed two par putts shorter than that,'' he said. ''To miss another would have opened the door a little bit too much for my liking.''
As for his health?
Scott, who began the week battling flu-like symptoms, said all he has left is a sore throat.
''And a sore throat doesn't hit the golf ball,'' he said.
Bradley made six birdies on the back nine, including the last three holes. He had a good look at eagle on the 16th and missed the 15-foot putt, made a putt just inside 25 feet for birdie on the 17th and then took on the flag on the 18th, even though caddie Steve ''Pepsi'' Hale was wanting him to play slightly more conservatively.
''I was going right at it,'' Bradley said of his 9-iron. ''He was nervous. I knew the whole way it was going to cover and be perfect. But it worked out.''

Today Apple unveiled the next generation of OS X, Lion and new iOS 5. Among the features, I'm concerned about two features: AriDrop and iCloud.
My worry for AriDrop comes from its automatic discover ability. While services like Bonjour also has automatic discover ability, they are passive. On the contrary, AriDrop is active, allows user to send (drop) a file to another user. Sounds pretty convenient. But this just reminds the old Bluetooth worms. Although saving a file requires user's permission, the worm continually pings the victim for 'dropping' the file, and most users will then get annoyed and permit the saving. So without further restriction, I would say AirDrop opens a new door for worms. Cheers!
Another concern is iCloud. As mentioned in this paper at Oakland '11, the old Hiptop/T-mobile attack may happen again. Apple has failed once on protecting user's account, and most user's are not good at choosing strong password. So this time they don't need to steal the top stars' phone to get those photos, they just need to get their user account and Apple will automatically push those photos to them.
Hope this is just my paranoia. Good luck, Apple.

Durham places atrazine money
Tampa correspondent
(785) 965-2285
Durham City Council member Tom Harmon took action months ago to involve the city in a class action lawsuit against the makers of atrazine, a chemical prominently used in farm operations. The city received more than $5,000 in the settlement and council members voted Feb. 5 to put it in their water fund.
City clerk Joyce Medley served her last session presenting the annual financial report. All funds showed a larger balance at the end of 2012 than at the beginning.
Mayor Mike Sorenson expressed appreciation for Medley's years of service to the city.
"You will be greatly missed," he said.
Harmon had inquired about hiring a city clerk with residence outside city limits, and asked the council to pass an ordinance stating thus.
Gary Unruh made the motion to relax residential requirements for city employment, Verlin Sommerfeld seconded the motion, and it carried. The council will publish the ordinance and then wait 60 days to allow citizen protest before it voted into law.
Lila Unruh agreed to fill in as a temporary city clerk while the council continues to search for a permanent replacement.
Sorenson reported that Waste Connections raised its trash pickup fee almost $40. Council members discussed how much the city should raise the fee charge for this service. Unruh said the city should establish a 10 percent increase on top of Waste Connections charges to cover administration and annual cleanup week costs, but the council took no action.
The council did vote to discontinue recycling collection after April 30, noting that was the date the county will cease recycling pickup.
"If we discontinue it, the county will likely end up charging more for the transfer station," Sommerfeld said.
In other business:
- Council approved bill payment including a $200 diversion of separate water wells to a battery of wells. That diversion lets the city avoid installing a separate meter for each well.
