In case you missed their recent announcement about Flash, Google and Adobe have teamed up on a new algorithm to index text content in Flash. As a result of the new algorithm for Flash, Googlebot now indexes "textual content in SWF files of all kinds" and extracts URLs embeded in Flash." On July 1, 2008, Google rolled out another update designed to assist Googlebot in its ability to traverse simple JavaScript, like SWFObject. While the full impact is not yet known, these technologies will redefine how Flash sites are created, constructed, designed and, as a result, optimized.
Before discussing the results of my case studies and how to optimize an actual scenario Flash site, it's important to understand some crucial background information.
Prior to the introduction of Google's Flash algorithm, Googlebot crawled only (X)HTML architectures without executing JavaScript to access text content and/or URLs in Flash. These new capabilities raise a number of questions about how Google handles, crawls and indexes content in Flash. Does Google index all text content in Flash? Does Google associate text content in Flash with the correct parent URL? Does Googlebot crawl links containing "pound signs" in URLs? Can Flash files have PageRank? How does Google treat underlying interlinked (X)HTML structures of corresponding text content pages? What about "Progressive Enhancement" techniques? To answer these and other questions, I've been testing the effectiveness of "Google's Flash algorithm" since its inception to find out what it means for current design practices.
Googlebot Flash Update Case Studies
Before looking at how to optimize an actual scenario site, it's important to establish the new "laws of the land," so to speak. For that reason, I've conducted a number of experiments with various sites but have included only a few case studies below. These case studies lay a foundation in terms of understanding how Googlebot now interacts with Flash since Google's new algorithm for Flash was introduced. For demonstration purposes, I've used Google's example from Google Webmaster Central Blog.
Google Flash Update Case Study #1:
Google Flash Content Association with Parent URLs
Experiment: To determine if Google associates text content embedded in Flash inside an (X)HTML page with the correct "parent" URL as a single entity.
Hypothesis: Google currently still does not associate text content in Flash with the correct parent URL or as a single entity.
Background: According to Google's Official Webmaster Blog, "If the Flash file is embedded in HTML (as many of the Flash files we find are), its content is associated with the parent URL and indexed as single entity." To support their claim, Google posted the following image:
Procedure: To test their claim, I used Google's example query [nasa deep impact animation].
Since the introduction of support for SWFObject in July, Google hasn't associated text content in Flash with the correct parent URL or as a single entity. More often than not, either the Flash URL or both the Flash and parent URL are indexed.
*For test validity, I've monitored Google SERPs (search engine results pages) for the above query daily over a period of 60 days. I've also monitored Google's SERPs for the following queries over the same period of time: [deep impact amy walsh] and [deep impact impact with comet Tempel 1].
Google Flash Update Case Study #2:
Google Flash File PageRank
Experiment: To determine if Flash files can accrue PageRank.
Hypothesis: Flash files can accrue PageRank.
Background: In a recent interview with Eric Enge, Maile Ohye mentioned that links in Flash function as a regular links and, therefore, can pass PageRank. If links in Flash can pass PageRank, it seems they could also accrue PageRank.
Procedure: Again using Google's example, I visited both the parent and child URLs and recorded their "Toolbar" PageRank.
The (X)HTML parent URL page has a "Toolbar PageRank" of 7 while the Flash file URL (.swf) page has a "Toolbar PageRank" of 6.
Flash files can accrue PageRank independent of their own parent URLs.
*Note: The illustration in this case study shows both the parent and child URLs indexed as unique individual entities in Google's SERPs (search engine results pages). This further supports the findings in Case Study #1.
Google Flash Update Case Study #3:
Googlebot #anchor (fragment identifier) URL Extraction
Experiment: To determine how Googlebot handles URLs containing #anchors (fragment identifiers).
Hypothesis: Googlebot ignores #anchors (fragment identifiers) in URLs and, as a result, extracts only URLs preceding #anchors (fragment identifiers) in Flash embedded links.
Background: According to Google's own JohnMu, "When we find URLs with an anchor attached like that (http://domain.com/page#anchor) we generally ignore the anchor part, since it is not relevant when fetching the contents of a URL." While this is a convention commonly used for playhead control in Flash sites, it refers to the same page as defined by W3C.
Procedure: To test the experiment, I used Google's "inurl:" operator to search for instances where Google had indexed a URL containing a pound sign. The queries I used are [inurl:#] and [inurl:& # 35;].
Result: No results found.
Google doesn't index URLs containing #anchors (fragment identifiers) in Flash per W3C Guidelines.
Google Flash Update Case Study #4:
Google Flash Text Translation
Experiment: To determine if Google can translate text content in Flash.
Hypothesis: Google can not translate text content in Flash.
Background: "Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful." To some, "universal accessibility" would imply translation.
Procedure: To test the experiment, I used Google's translation tool to translate the case study example into French, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic and Russian.
Result: No results found.
Currently, Google doesn't seem to support translations of text content in Flash.
Googlebot Flash Interaction Scenario
Avenues for optimizing Flash differ, but the final destination remains the same in terms of organic search engine optimization. The scenario below reveals the basics of how Flash sites are typically optimized. In addition to the description, I included images to help further illustrate the dynamics involved.
(A second iteration of this same technique draws text content seen both in the Flash presentation as well as the underlying (X)HTML from the server. However, Google does not attach external content resources loaded in Flash files. "If your Flash file loads an HTML file, an XML file, another SWF file, etc., Google will separately index that resource, but it will not yet be considered a part of the content in your Flash file.")
While the scenario above seems fairly simple, understanding how each element is "digested" by Googlebot is a bit more complex. Here are a few issues to be aware of when optimizing Flash sites in light of the new Flash algorithm.
"Progressive Enhancement"
As illustrated by Case Study #1, Googlebot traverses simple JavaScript, like SWFObject and, as a result, it completely circumnavigates text content provided via "Progressive Enhancement" in most cases.
Flash in SERPs
As Case Study #1 and #2 illustrate, Google may not associate text content in Flash with the appropriate parent URL and/or as a single entity. This makes it possible for users without Flash-enabled browsers and/or devices (iPhone) to access Flash files directly from Google's SERPs. This issue can result in a bad user experience.
As illustrated by Case Study #3, Googlebot ignores pound signs (#anchors / fragment identifiers) in URLs. As a result, Googlebot interprets URLs containing pound signs as different URLs with different content than intended. (After pointing this issue out to the creators of SWFAddress, Asual added the "Copy link to clipboard" option to footer of pages in their SEO example.) This issue is further complicated by the introduction of Google's new algorithm for Flash, the support for simple JavaScript and the possibility of Flash files being indexed in Google search engine results pages.
If a user posts a link to domain.com/photos.html#/contact.html, Googlebot will only see and index the content at domain.com/photos.html.
PageRank / Keyword Thinning
As illustrated by Case Study #2, Flash files can now accrue PageRank independent of their own parent URLs. As a result of this issue, PageRank thinning is likely to occur, because PageRank is divided between the parent URLs and actual URL. The percentage of thinning is likely to increase in proportion to the quantity of underlying (X)HTML pages containing "the flash file."
Similar to PageRank, keyword relevancy may not be allocated to the intended URL. When keyword relevancy that is intended for one URL is instead allocated to another URL, thinning occurs.
As Case Study #4 illustrates, Google doesn't seem to translate text content in Flash files, especially when text is supplied by a server or some other third party source.
Google SEO for Flash
Before talking about SEO for Flash, it's important to define what that really means. Ask a Flash guy what SEO for Flash means and he might say something like "indexed content" or "indexation." Ask an SEO guy what SEO for Flash means and he might say something like "ranking top 10 or text content in Flash." As you can see, there are two different definitions and, therefore, two totally different expectations at work here. To an SEO, indexed content is the starting point where SEO for Flash begins. Simply "being indexed" is better defined as "Search Engine Friendly" (SEF). The introduction of Google's Flash algorithm means most Flash sites are, by default, search engine friendly assuming text content resides within the Flash files and isn't in a vector format.
Organic search engine optimization (SEO), unlike search engine friendliness (SEF), depends heavily on "meta data," not just "meta tags." Lots of information can be gleaned from (X)HTML by search engines via, TITLE elements, ALT attributes, images, headers (H1, H2, H3, H4...), internal link structure, fonts, link popularity, relationships, site categories, subdivisions and sections. Engines rely on these elements for meta data as well as other informational "signals" used for rankings. "More data is good data" but only when that data is available in a digital format that's digestible by search engines and can be translated to determine relevancy for textual queries. As Vanessa Fox recently pointed out, the lack of structural meta data in Flash is a real disadvantage.
With Google's introduction of "Universal search" in May 2007, Flash sites were dealt a new obstacle. Universal blends results from verticals like news, images and YouTube, in Google's search results. The advent of "Universal search" is somewhat problematic for Flash sites, because Googlebot can't extract images and/or video embedded in Flash for inclusion in Google's "Universal" search results. To illustrate, currently Adobe.com doesn't rank top ten in Google Images for [Adobe] or [Adobe logo].
Google Flash SEO Tips for 2009
Since "optimizing Flash" is difficult, it's better to understand the fundamental limitations of the medium in terms of search, and to then concentrate on optimizing site design and architecture.
- When it comes to text, "Don't use it for something when there's already a standard whose output can be easily parsed, easily processed, and whose openness makes its processing easier for browsers and searchbots." - "Bergy," Google Webmaster Central
- Avoid text content and links in Flash
- Don't use text content in Flash supplied via third party file
- If you must use text content in Flash, use sIFR
- If you must use text content in Flash and sIFR isn't an option, create individual Flash files laid over each corresponding (X)HTML page via SWFObject
- "Instead of including everything in one flash file it may make sense to break the content into different flash files so you can create different HTML pages around the different ideas contained in it." - Aaron Wall, SEOBook.com
- When using SWFObject, consider using absolute URLs in underlying (X)HTML and Flash files
- When using SWFObject, be sure to include "alternative" images for users without Flash
- Avoid using text content in Flash for pages employing "seamless transitions" where URLs don't change, or, instead, include "pound signs"
- Provide links to important pages within Flash files using absolute URLs for users who arrive at the Flash file via Google search engine results pages
- Consider how translation issues may impact content in Flash and investigate ways of working around these issues
The latest Google Webmaster Central Blog post includes lots of great information for webmasters as well as a new video which address some issues related to Flash but, not my findings. So, I've asked for details via Google Groups.
I'll be talking more about these and other issues related to SEO for Flash at SES Chicago.

Halverson first became enamored with the West during a road trip to Stanford University in the late 1950s. She returned to the Northeast for her post-graduate studies, and studied photography with Garry Winogrand and Joel Meyerowitz in New York. Her photographs capture the striking landscapes of places such as the Utah desert, Santa Monica Mountains, and Iceland, and include traces of human activity—a sign, building, or car—that interrupt the natural environment. "I was drawn to human artifacts in the landscape—perhaps in reaction to the tradition of seeing landscape as 'pure,' or because human artifacts establish a sense of time—the here and now," Halverson has said.

I know this is a bit on the trivial end, but I'm trying to locate a movie for reference in something I'm writing. I know I've seen this somewhere, and I can't place it. I don't think I saw the entire movie, probably just a scene or two.
I remember seeing Peter Lorre asking something like, "Can I kill him? Can I kill him now, boss?"
I've looked on Google and found one comment that indicates it may be in The Sad Sack, and I have ordered it, but I don't know when it will arrive and the one place I saw that stated sounded like the author wasn't positive it was from that movie -- and I really can't keep watching every movie someone thinks contained that line.
Does anyone know where that line came from?

I'm making a post here to let people know about this library, since I think it may be useful; if such a post is inappropriate or offensive, please let me know!
liblfds is a portable, license-free, lock-free data structure library, written in C.
The library has already been ported to a number of platforms (Windows (user-mode and kernel), Linux, IA64, x86, x64, ARM, GCC, MS C compiler, etc).
Release 5 was published late last night :-)
Right now there's only a few data structures - the queue and ringbuffer are the most useful - but a *lot* of work has been made into making the library accessable; there's a blog, forum, wiki and bugzilla on the web-site and a metric *ton* of documentation.

Mace Security International Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire a Wholesale Security Monitoring Company
HORSHAM, Pa. -- April 01, 2009
Mace Security International, Inc. ("Mace" or the ³Company²) (Nasdaq
Global:MACE) today announced that it signed a letter of intent to acquire a wholesale security monitoring company. Mace anticipates that it will sign a definitive purchase agreement within 30 days, and plans to consummate the transaction within 30 days after signing the definitive purchase agreement.
The wholesale monitoring company has a UL-listed monitoring center that maintains over 30,000 accounts. Mace will not disclose the name of the company until the definitive purchase agreement is signed.
"We are very excited about this future acquisition," said Dennis Raefield,
Chief Executive Officer and President of Mace Security International, Inc.
"As Mace previously announced, we are focused on revenue growth in our Security Segment. I announced a strategy in December 2008 that included Mace's goal to purchase a wholesale security monitoring company to complement our surveillance product line. This allows Mace¹s sales force to offer a new product to its Professional Dealers, and allows the Company to generate recurring monthly revenue from the monitoring service. We believe that offering a traditional third party monitoring service, plus advanced future remote-managed services, will increase our dealer loyalty and strengthen our position in the marketplace."
The letter of intent is subject to customary closing conditions. Although
there can be no assurance that this acquisition will ultimately close, the
Company is optimistic that the conditions will be satisfied.

Opel Calibra
DTM series 1995
By Phil Wicks
In 1995 the German DTM series consisted of three manufacturers; Meredes Benz, Alfa Romeo and Opel. Of the ten or more teams contesting the series teams were made up from Mercedes C type V6's, Alfa 155 V6's and the Opel Calibra V6 4WD! Teams entered saw some familiar names too. Teams such as Opel team Rosberg, Opel Team Joest, Zakspeed Mercedes, D2 Mercedes and Alfa Corse. These teams made up the total of 32 entrants on most racedays
Racing took place cross six frontiers with some countries running more than one event. Germany was the greatest source of venues with races also being raced in France (Nevers), Portugal (Estoril), UK (Donnington), Finland (Helsinki Thunder) and Italy (Mugello), with the balance being run in Germany of which two rounds (four races) being run at the Hockenheimring.
The last round (12) was one of the Hockenheim events and as the season closed Bernd Schneider (D2 Mercedes), who had been strong all season , only needed to underpin his performance, which he did easily, to take the title. Manuel Reuter, Opel Team Joest, had a good round but it was not enough to make up for lost placings earlier in the season. A second and a fourth boosted his position in the results but he still only managed a 12th position in the final rankings. The Slot.it model in question is a replica of the Reuter car driven throughout the '95 series.
Slot it have come a long way since their inception and this has been attributable in part by starting off on the right foot. The company has not made many wrong decisions over their short slotcar existence and from where I am standing their future looks bright, while other 'upstart' companies come and go! Their models are not only competitive on the competition track, but are also highly drivable on all but the smallest home circuit, be it plastic or painted timber.
So what have they done right this time, well, in my books the choice of subject material was the first good decision. The livery is striking, and even though I possess the Ninco Calibra, I couldn't help myself when I saw this one! In the box it looked great and in the flesh it is even better!
External detail is great and as mentioned regularly, the tampo is almost faultless; looking around the outside doesn't reveal any worrying developments apart from the susceptibility of the door mirrors and particularly the rear wing to on track incidents. But Slot.it, like a few other makers, does have a good supply of after market spares available; the only thing being that they do not come painted like Scaley spares do! One thing that still evades Slot.it though is a good gloss finish. Trust me when I say real race cars shine! And several of the mainstream slotcar makers seem to be able to pull off a good shine. I suspect that Slot.it are conscious of the weight saving of a dull finish, and the cost saving of one less gloss coat no doubt!
Slot.it have spent a little time on the interior too, there is a good drivers tray with a passable driver, and they have even gone to colour on the dash assembly and a board of some sort on the right side of the cockpit. In some makes this detail would have been left black! It looks too that the drivers tray clips in place like Scaley models. Lastly, on the outside, Slot.it have reproduced the comms and telemetry antenna but one thing I have to mark them down on is the size of the wheels. Being a scale model fan I would have liked to see the wheels a little larger (or the arches smaller!) and the front axle a little wider to match the arches.
As with other Slot.it models, care needs to be taken when initially removing the body screws. They are tight and if you don't have a firm grip on the body it can flex quite scarily. Once out they will be ok in the future event of removing the body. Once inside, the finer points of the model are revealed. Nothing new here, all is reliable simplicity which should not bother the racer in the future.
I would sleeve the body mounting posts as a matter of course if the model is to be raced, they are a bit skinny and sometime in the future I can visualise the sides snapping off them during a hectic pit stop. The front axle too has a bit more up and down movement than I woud normally like. OK for tracks with fast sweepers, but on short course technical tracks the model will need all the lateral support it can get as the model changes tack several times at speed.
Also, this is the first time I have come across the current front axle mount set up! Gone are the grub screws for setting axle heights and in come a couple of 'devices' for want of a better word. These floating mounts slide into the body and the axle holds them in place once it is slid in. The holes in these sliding mounts are off set so be careful which way round you install them. One way round gives a low front stance and the other way round lifts the front of the mode more than a millimetre or so, and raises the guide in the slot too. You can't race without them as the front axle will slop about all over the place. My best advice is that unless you need to touch them….don't!
Penultimately, an observation would be that the body creeks when the model is handled. To me this indicates the thinness of the body, and along with the vents and ducts in the body moulding there is going to be more than one model end race day with an uninvited crack or split in the body. But maybe I am being too apprehensive…..time will tell. The good thing is though, that unlike Scaley and the like, a body is available as a spare part, albeit unpainted!
A final observation would be that the drive train is as per other 'in line' Slot.it's. The front wheel rims are plastic and very concentric as well as being a tight fit. The guide feels notchy in operation and it appears that the lead wires need repositioning to overcome this. Rear wheel rims are alloy with short hubs. And the rear axle bushes are the self centring spherical type. As with the Alfa, this pod chassis carries the Slot.it V12/4 MX15 rated at 21,000 rpm @ 12v. The standard Slot.it magnet is placed between the motor and the rear axle, and the motor is tight in its mounts, and the 9:28 final drive reduction is smooth in operation
I took an opportunity to give it a run, straight from the box, on my local four lane Carrera track. For those not aware, Carrera is a low down force track very much similar to the magnetic effect of the Magnabraid system; and models need a good traction magnet to compete. Unsurprisingly, the model behaved impeccably and for all intents and purposes it could have been on Scaley Sport track with its high down force. Much of this is due to the low body weight.
Calibras on eBay
Another 'must have' model which I do now have! Will it get raced? It should do, but this one may sit on the shelf on full display until such time as I can bring myself to race it!

Huygens was the first to use the term catenary in a letter to Leibniz in 1690 and David Gregory wrote a treatise on the catenary in 1690. Jungius (1669) disproved Galileo's claim that the curve of a chain hanging under gravity would be a parabola.
The catenary is the locus of the focus of a parabola rolling along a straight line.
The catenary is the evolute of the tractrix. It is the locus of the mid-point of the vertical line segment between the curves ex and e-x.
Euler showed in 1744 that a catenary revolved about its asymptote generates the only minimal surface of revolution.

Abortion Industry Pay-Off in ObamaHealthCare "Reforms"
The pro-abortion 111th Congress has passed nationalized healthcare "reform" legislation which is most morally repugnant because of its unprecedented taxpayer funding for abortion on demand, which will vastly increase the number of abortions in America. Compounding this evil, however, the legislation is a wholesale assault on the Hippocratic Oath, on individual privacy and family prerogatives of medical care, and is rife with schemes of socialistic government control and corporate corruption affecting all areas of medical care. It is a major Democrat Party "pay-off" to the abortion industry, including massive benefits to the "Big Pharma" pharmaceutical industry financial backers and political supporters, which the abortion industry and the Democrat Party share.
We at the Pro-Life Campaign are trying to reach every pro-life household in America with an important message of truth about the violence Congress, and President Barack Obama, have committed with passage of this law against the innocent unborn; the elderly, the infirm and the disabled; and the rights of conscience of millions of Americans, by forcing the passage of so-called ObamaCare. Despite protestations to the contrary, this legislation actually includes:
Mr. Obama is a strong supporter of abortion-on-demand, has a record that includes extremist endorsements for taxpayer funding of abortion, and a long history of opposing any ban or restrictions on abortion procedures – including protections for minors and parental notification laws, infants-born-alive protections, and partial-birth abortion bans. But, Mr. Obama has successfully downplayed the intolerable extremism of his pro-abortion record, and now he is lying about taxpayer funding in the nationalized healthcare programs being crafted under his ObamaCare legislation.
Indeed, our analysis shows that under the American health care "reform" legislation he signed, are included arrangements that will provide for taxpayer funding for abortion, and provisions that will inevitably lead to rationing of care, and eugenics and euthanasia policies being enacted.
The Pro-Life Campaign is a project of Life & Liberty PAC, a federal political action committee dedicated to forthright pro-life public advocacy, enacting or changing laws to reflect pro-life policies, and supporting pro-life candidates for public office.
For many months, we have been alerting pro-life voters to the threat of the 111th Congress enacting, either in whole or in part, the radical anti-life Freedom Of Choice Act. You can learn more about this threat here. This danger is very real and remains imminent.
Right now, we need to reach pro-life voters with the vital truth about the pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia content of the current healthcare "reform" legislation, the prospects for its REPEAL in the next 112th Congress, and the future of pro-life protections under law if we fail to elect pro-life champions in these next national elections... but we can't do it without your help. The public must be warned about the pro-abortion radicalism of ObamaCare. The truth about this law and indeed, about Obama's execrable record on the life issue will NOT be widely known unless we stand up and get it done. It is only through the support of people like you that this truth campaign will be made possible. Your gift will help us educate and mobilize pro-life voters across the country, and to recruit and equip the new leaders who must be raised up if we are to restore respect for human life at every stage, from conception to natural death. Gifts to the Pro-Life Campaign are not tax deductible under federal election law, because of our activism. Thank you for your faithfulness and support!

I recently completed a book entitled "The Hole in Our Gospel" by the current president of World Vision, Richard Stearns.
World Vision, as you likely know, is a faith-based relief, development and advocacy organization dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice. The organization annually receives more than $1 billion in donations, and many of its programs are funded through child sponsorship where private donors submit monthly donations that benefit a child, his or her family and the community.
The book may be a difficult read, for two reasons: first, Mr. Stearns does such a good job of describing need and poverty. Second, as an unapologetic Christian, Mr. Stearns believes that he and fellow believers have an obligation to not only "espouse" service to others, but to actually be actively involved in the process.
His first-hand experiences resonate with me and will with any reader who has seen true suffering first-hand. It is always interesting when you read a work such as this to step back at the conclusion and think about "the one thing;" the lesson or concept that stood out above all the rest. For me it was this.
Each chapter in the book features powerful quotes from various sources, including Christian scripture. At the beginning of chapter fourteen, an exchange from an anonymous source goes like this:
"Sometimes I would like to ask God why He allows poverty, suffering, and injustice when He could do something about it."
"Well, why don't you ask Him?"
"Because I'm afraid He would ask me the same question."
Stearns goes on to explain a specific situation in a remote village wherein he realized that he was the solution to one family's suffering. We could all learn from this realization.
Many of us have a very difficult time understanding how in this day and age, the world still struggles with so much need. The levels of hunger for instance, quoting Stearns' statistics, is literally beyond comprehension in a society where restaurants and most households, throw away enough food to feed hundreds each year. Consider:
- Roughly one in four children in developing counties is underweight
- Some 350 to 400 million children are hungry
- About 1 in 7 worldwide—854 million people—do not have enough food to sustain them
- Approximately 25,000 people die each day of hunger—about 9 million people a year
As Mr. Stearns rightly warns, these statistics are so bad, they may cause a numbness to overcome the reader and instead of sparking action, they can instead induce despair and helplessness. A simple solution to that reaction is:
You do not have to help everyone, just help someone.
When Operation Kids talks about more effective giving, we are talking exactly about this. There is more than enough food grown in the world to feed its inhabitants; distribution and greed are the issues. There are plenty of people who give large sums of money in an effort to fight poverty; their generosity is not the issue, their understanding of the problem is. Imagine the power of already existing, but properly organized and distributed aid to those in need?
As donors and philanthropists, it can at times be challenging to get past the statistics and once again personalize need. Stearns uses one of my favorite quotes: "The death of one is a tragedy; the death of millions is statistic." As you consider the objectives in your charitable giving, as an individual, a family or a corporation, consider the impact, the efficiency and the desired outcome. It is possible to alter the seemingly overwhelming statistics that we hear about global need, but it requires both generosity and planning. Don't be afraid to ask for help, just as you would in your financial planning. No one is expected to instinctively know how to give; how to change the world. If the passion and the resources are there, then you can learn who the trusted stewards of your giving are and begin to realize the difference between simply giving and high-impact philanthropy.
My "thanks" to Richard Stearns for his commitment and passion, for changing his life to serve others, and for taking the time to write down his thoughts and experiences in such a powerful manner.

New use of artificial lung device pioneered at University of Kentucky
Surgeons at the University of Kentucky on Aug. 3 announced that they were among the first to use artificial-lung technology to demonstrate the feasibility of a lung transplant, using a device invented by two university faculty members, Dr. Joseph Zwischenberger and Dr. Dongfang Wang.
"The device helps patients get oxygen into their blood by transporting blood to a gas exchanger that removes carbon dioxide and oxygenates the blood before returning it to the heart, bypassing the lungs of the patient," said Zwischenberger, chairman of the UK Department of Surgery. "It's meant for patients who are too sick to be maintained on a ventilator and is designed as temporary treatment for severe respiratory failure."
Normally, a patient is sedated while using an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Consequently, the patient is bedridden, which causes the muscles to become increasingly weak. However, Zwischenberger's device, the bi-caval double lumen catheter, manufactured by Avalon Laboratories, is an advanced form of ECMO, also known as "ambulatory artificial lungs."
Zwischenberger's goal was to allow patients to do normal things, even exercise, while using the device.
That goal was achieved on April 8, when Dr. Charles Hoopes, director of the UK Heart and Lung Transplant Program and the Ventricular Assist Device Program, performed surgery on Ernie Gillispie, of Canada, Ky., to allow the use of this artificial lung and double lumen catheter.
With the assistance of the device, Gillispie proved himself to be a candidate for a lung transplant; without it he would not have been strong enough for the surgery, Zwischenberger said.
"This lung technology sets us up to be able to bridge patients to lung transplant, rather than their condition continuing to deteriorate while waiting for a transplant," Zwischenberger said. "Dr. Hoopes is an early adopter of this technique and we are now one of a very few places in the country that uses ambulatory ECMO as a bridge to transplant."
Hoopes says the machine proved that if Gillispie's lungs worked properly, he could live a normal life.
"If a patient cannot exercise after their breathing is 'replaced' with an artificial lung, then transplant will provide little clinical benefit," Hoopes said. "The limited number of donor organs can be used in patients who will most likely benefit. Artificial lung technology allows us to be certain that the patient potentially receiving the organ transplantation is physically well enough to undergo the surgery and recovery."
After only three days using the artificial lung, Gillispie underwent a successful double-lung transplant surgery on April 11.

When it comes to food and pregnancy, it seems like it's a topic always enshrouded in confusion. How much should one eat? What should one eat? What should be avoided etc. Here are a few key points that I have done my due diligence on.
- We need only an additional 300 calories per day when pregnant and 600 more when lactating.
- Avoid raw fish, raw meat like deli meat and unpasteurized soft cheeses. Some raw soft cheese like imported brie have been linked to a fetal harming bacteria called Listeria.
- Increase protein intake up to 65-70 grams per day.
- Skip caffeine, refined sugar and alcohol.
- Try to eat every two hours (always including some protein) to keep blood sugar balance.
- And stay hydrated (2-3 liters of water a day)
When it comes to pregnancy eating think about how you will want your child to eat when he is about 3-4 years old. Plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, protein, fiber, and sure, every now again a treat. Everything you eat is helping your baby grow and develop, honor your cravings but do your best to help create a strong and healthy foundation for your child. Pick up Domenica Catelli's wonderful cook book Mom-a-licious: Fresh, Fast, Family Food for the Hot Mama in You! You will use it for years.

How long do angoras live? Do they need special care as they age?
In our flock, it is not uncommon for our girls to go 9-11 years- undoubtedly we could push them longer, but they do not stay unless they can put kids on the ground. Best suggestion is keep on top of their body score and adjust your feeding program accordingly. If you have several, this could mean seperating the geriatrics from the rest of the flock for TLC.
What vaccinations does an angora need? What about worming?
Tetanus and overeating (this is 1 shot combined) once per year, the kids get 2 doeses a few weeks apart and then once annually. Worming at least 4 times per year, kids we worm every month up until 6 months, every two months until a year. Also, we keep a coccistat in the feed for the kids to prevent coccidia (you won't have to worry about this with adults though).
Are angoras good for brush clearing?
Angora goats are indeed excellent brush clearers and weed eaters. A few years ago when we moved to Ohio we rented a pasture that was absolutely covered in multi-flora rose bushes as tall as I am (5'9"). After two grazing seasons the roses were almost totally gone along with all the other burs, weeds etc. The lighter the stocking rate the longer it will take them to take down any existing browse, but they will with time.
I read that Angoras are "delicate" and have trouble with cold, wet weather. Have you found this to be true?
First, let me premise this by saying I have raised angoras several very cold, wet climates and experienced no difficulty. The only time that an angora is particularly susceptible to cold/wet is the three weeks after shearing. If they do not have shelter during this time and are submitted to a cold wet rain or sleet they will have trouble, but if they have access to shelter, they will do fine. The cold/wet issue after shearing is really a greater one for large herds in Texas, Montana, Idaho, where they don't have access to shelter on range and a storm can blow in before the herd can be brought to shelter... in Midwestern farm flocks you can see this wouldn't be a problem--as most are no more than a few hundred yards from shelter at any time.
Can you milk angoras?
No! Angoras are the most efficient fiber producing animals on earth, producing up to 25% of their own body weight in fiber annually. They raise wonderful kids, beautiful fiber, but sorry, not enough extra milk for you too. If you are looking for a goat to provide milk, choose one of the many dairy breeds.
The essential book for information on care and raising of Angora Goats - great information regarding these intriguing creatures, regardless of what climate you live on.

L.A. Archbishop Relieves Retired Cardinal Mahony Of Duties, Releases Abuse Files
The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles on Thursday relieved retired Cardinal Roger Mahoney of his remaining duties, on the same day it released thousands of pages related to the abuse of children by priests.
The Archdiocese called the release of the files, part of a 2007 legal settlements, "a sad and shameful chapter in the history of our Local Church."
The files were released just hours after Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Emilie H. Elias ordered the church to do so.
In an accompanying statement, Archbishop Jose Gomez called the files "brutal and painful reading." Here's more from his statement:
"My predecessor, retired Cardinal Roger Mahony, has expressed his sorrow for his failure to fully protect young people entrusted to his care. Effective immediately, I have informed Cardinal Mahony that he will no longer have any administrative or public duties. Auxiliary Bishop Thomas Curry has also publicly apologized for his decisions while serving as Vicar for Clergy. I have accepted his request to be relieved of his responsibility as the Regional Bishop of Santa Barbara."
The Los Angeles Times provides the background:
"[The judge's] order brought to a close five and a half years of legal wrangling and delays and set the stage for a raft of new and almost certainly embarrassing revelations about the church's handling of pedophile priests.
"The files Elias ordered released are the final piece of a landmark 2007 settlement between the archdiocese and about 500 people who said clergy abused them. As part of that $660-million settlement, the archdiocese agreed to hand over the personnel files of accused abusers. Victims said the files would provide accountability for church leaders who let pedophiles remain in the ministry; law enforcement officials said the records would be important investigative tools.
"But the release was delayed for years by appeals and the painstaking process of reading and redacting 89 files, some hundreds of pages long. A private mediator in 2011 ordered the church to black out the names of victims and archdiocese employees not accused of abuse, saying he wanted to avoid 'guilt by association.'"

Santa Barbara, Calif. - The UC Santa Barbara women's tennis team looked dominant on Wednesday afternoon, as they overpowered the University of Hawai'i, 6-1, pushing their record on the season to 6-8. The Gauchos started the day by winning the doubles point, and never looked back.
"When we get the doubles point, we have a shot against anyone," said head coach Pete Kirkwood.
Jordan Dockendorf and Natalia Lozano picked up the victory at the No. 1 doubles position over the team of Sophie Kobuch and Katarina Poljakova (8-3). Jill Damion and Tova Hausman suffered the loss to Alyssa Nafarrete and Barbara Pinterova (8-5) at the No. 2 spot, but Bryanna Ojeda and Asagi Onaga secured the doubles point with their victory over Aglae Van den Bergh and Mari Tadaki (8-6).
The only Gaucho loss in singles play came at the No. 3 spot, where Dockendorf lost a three-set battle against Poljakova (5-7, 6-4, 6-2). The rest of the match was smooth sailing for UCSB.
Sofia Novak got back on the winning track as she knocked off Kobuch (6-2, 2-6, 6-2) at the No. 1 position. At the No. 2 slot, Lozano also found success in her tough match against Pinterova (7-5, 2-6, 6-2).
As they have done all season, the Nos. 4, 5, and 6 positions continued to show their strength for the Gauchos. Gledden had an easy time against Nafarrete (6-1, 6-1) in the No. 4 slot, while Hausman continued her strong play, holding off Van den Bergh (6-3, 7-6 (3)), at the No. 5 position. Ojeda rounded out the action with a (6-1, 6-1) victory over Allison Gobel, keeping her perfect dual match record intact at 8-0.
"Four, five, and six have been our strength all season," added Kirkwood. "Those three haven't lost a single point in Big West matches."
Next up for the Gauchos will be a road match against nationally-ranked UC Irvine on Friday, March 12th at 1:30 p.m.

MILLEDGEVILE, Ga. – Sophomore Shanteona Keys (Roswell, Ga.), guard on Georgia College's women's basketball team (10-7, 6-4 PBC), was awarded the Bobcat Athlete of the Week after her performances against the USC Aiken Pacers and the Young Harris College Mountain Lions.
Keys' performance in the past two games averaged 20.0 points and 3.0 rebounds over the two contests, shooting a total of 13-of-44 from the floor.
Keys led the Georgia College women's basketball team to a 68-55 victory over the visiting Mountain Lions while scoring a career-high 32 points, beating her previous record of 29.
The career-high 32 points sunk by Keys is the individual-pinnacle of scoring for the Bobcats since Nov. 12, 2010 when Chimere Jordan posted 35 points.
With the week's performance, Keys surpassed the 700 career points plateau, now standing at 713.
The Bobcats will return to action Thursday, Jan. 31 at 5:30 p.m. when they travel to take on No. 3 Clayton State University in Morrow, Ga.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.
