One more bit of handywork, which I can now divulge since it's after Christmas...
This one was actually a request / Christmas present for my folks: a shoe rack in the style of one that I made for us some years ago. They had recently had a lot of work done on the first floor of their house, and wanted a place in the entryway for storing their shoes.
It has two shelves on a slight incline (for dirt and melted snow to flow down, ya see?). There's a crossbar at the back and a dowel across the front. These are used as cross-bracing to keep the rack square. But the rear cross brace can also be used to prop up the heel or toe of the shoes. The dowel in front is there to provide a sort of scupper for dirt and water to drip down.
The cross braces are oak; the rest of the construction is 1/2" finish plywood. The vertical sides had slots cut in them for all the horizontals to fit in. There was a great deal of router-work involved in this one: the slots, the round-overs, etc. The plywood, which is almost white when you look at it, got some stain to bring it closer to the color of the oak. After glue-up, everything got a few coats of varnish. The top face of the shelves, which will see the most abuse, got a few more.
Looks right at home.

Let's Go To The Hop!
Alex's office puts on a big themed party each year for the holidays, and this year, it was a sock hop!
I borrowed a poodle skirt...
And Alex bought a tighter pair of jeans...
And off we went!
The music was fun, and it was lovely to spend some grownup time together and practice our swing dancing.
Here we are in the cupola:
And there were root beer floats for dessert!

How times have changed. When this house was built about 100 years ago, a way of showing how monied and high class you were was to use brick in the construction. Nowadays granite and other natural stone is the big deal. So when I look at the foundation of the house and see large, local granite blocks right up to grade, then courses of bricks from grade up to the sill plate, I just shake my head and wonder.
One result of this is that the bricks of the foundation are exposed to the elements, and over time the mortar wears out and needs repair. When we were looking to buy this house, the home inspector noted this and mentioned that the bricks would need "repointing"pretty soon. Two years later and I've finally gotten around to it.
Repointing involves grinding or chiseling out the old mortar to get down to intact mortar, then scraping in new mortar. It's something that theoretically a DIYer can do, but I'd been meaning to have a professional take care of. The cost probably wouldn't be that much more, and certainly the frustration factor is a lot lower. A carpenter we've used for things in the past mentioned a mason he's worked with in times past, and being a slow time of year for masonry, he was able to come out and do it that same day. I was impressed that he was able to do anything at this time of year; I would have thought it was too cold for mortar to set up properly. But apparently, as long as it is not completely freezing, the mortar can be mixed in such a way that it works just fine. Being on the foundation, instead of a standalone structure out in the open, ensures that it'll stay reasonably warm, too.
So, apparently, this is what repointing looks like. From strolling around, it looks like about 2/3 of the mortar on each of the three exposed walls was touched up (the fourth wall is covered with the porch). Tick off another home maintenance item. This ought to take care of things for the next few decades.

We still marvel that our house, here in snowy New Hampshire, does not have anything in the way of a mudroom. Granted that folks 100 years ago, when the house was built, didn't have as much outdoorsy gear as today - where did they put it all when they came in through the front door? We do have a small entryway at the front door, where we have placed a hooks, a shoe rack and, until recently, some plastic bins for hats and gloves. I say "until recently" because the bins ran into a rather destructive accident a few months back. With winter coming we realized that we would need some more substantial place for our warm things.
Some woodworking was in order! And it would need to be done quickly, for while I use the basement and garage for storing my tools, I actually do most of my woodworking out in the driveway. Operating a table saw in freezing temperatures is no fun time, and doing so with numb fingers is downright dangerous. It's also tough to do such work in the dark, and I'm at home for precious few daylit hours these days. Thankfully, we had a fairly mild November, and Hilary's weekend schedule permitted some extended work during the day. After the carpentry itself was finished, I was able to move the work down to the basement for applying finish in the warmth next to the furnace and during the very early or very late hours.
A couple of weeks later, here's what we've got:
It stands about five feet high, and squeezes between the front door and a door to the living room. Each of the ten cubbies is sized to accept a small fabric bin that can be gotten cheap from Target.
The construction is mostly 1/2" finish plywood. To strengthen the construction, there are abundant dado and rabbet joints. These were made largely with my router, and getting the cuts for the shelves to line up on the left, right, and center uprights was tricky. Because plywood endgrain looks terrible, I applied some stained maple trim in a tongue-and-groove construction.
The outside corners are chamfered to mitigate the inevitable running-child-bonks-head accidents.
The lowest bins are at a convenient height for B's things, so that she can get into the habit of putting away and retrieving herself. I am working on putting together a set of pegs to hang off the left side, so that B can hang up her coat herself. Unfortunately, while cutting an angled hole in a piece of scrap oak for a dowel, my 3/4" auger bit snapped! I'll get to that later, after the Christmas craziness has passed.
At least for the moment, we should be able to lighten the load on our overworked horse coat rack:

Not Quite...
Every year, I do the Christmas cards at the last minute and then have to pay rush shipping. This year I was determined to get it done early (ish). Despite Art and Kate's valiant efforts as paparazzi in Rochester last weekend, Brynna did not cooperate, opting for fake-smile or sticking-out-of-tongue in virtually every photo.
We finally lucked out with a couple of nice shots at home this evening, but the B-roll is much funnier.
These are the photos that will NOT be making it onto the Christmas card this year.

Ongoing back pain made for a rather restless night; I was up and brekkie-ing by 7am. This morning I was rather worried as I checked out the world of social media. I didn't get to astro club last night; my back was against the idea. But there's no denying that it wasn't a meeting I was especialy looking forward to: just a meet-up in a pub (which I couldn't really afford).
Usually on the day after astro club Facebook is awash with comments and praise for the previous evening's meeting. This morning there wasn't a single comment about yesterday's meeting. Not one.
I took a walk into town to post a parcel. As I went I weaved in and out of the recycling bins strewn all over the pavements. Would it cause the recycling binmen physical pain to leave the bins in such a place that the pavements aren't *completely* obstructed when they have done the few bins that they can be bothered to empty.
I'm all for recycling in theory. In practice it seems to be leaving a lot to be desired.
Once home I took "Furry Face TM" for a walk round the block. He seemed to like that. And then we got in the car and set off to Hastings to see my mum on her birthday. The intention was to get her a pressie on the way, but all the florists on the way were closed. Eventually we found somewhere near Tenterden
Mum was well, and liked her pressie. We then came home via a rather scenic route along the coast where we sat on the beach and had chips. Our route also took in half a dozen geocaches as we went. Including one which was right next to a playpark. Regular readers of this drivel may recall that my piss boiled last year when I had a cache turned down by the authorities because it was (apparently) too close to a playpark. I have compiled a list of a dozen caches which are far closer to playparks and have been accepted. Today's one was about ten yards from where the kiddies would play. It turns out that today's discovery was quite acceptable because the rule about hiding caches near where people might get arrrested doesn't apply to caches hidden before that ruling was made.
I can't see the distinction myself; either a geocache is fine near a playpark or it is not?
Whilst we were out my phone lost its connection to the Internet. It loses signal from time to time. But the signal didn't come back this time. After four re-boots over ten miles I came to the conclusion that either my phone had gone west or the network had gone squafty. So I phoned my phone provider. Eventually I got through to someone who wanted to check every setting on my phone. I told him I was a busy chap; I would fart with the phone later. In the meantime would he tell me if there was there a problem with the network. Yes or no?
Eventually the chap conceded that there was nothing wrong with the network. Getting that admission took some doing. Why do so many people have such difficulty giving a straight answer to a straight question? I told him I'd continue the call when I got home and I had time to fiddle about.
Five minutes later my phone beeped. A text message; my network provider had spent the afternoon upgrading the network. If I would just reboot my phonne I could take advantage of all the new functionality. So I rebooted my phone and took advantage of all the new functionality. Not taht I can see much difference.
I would have thought that the people spoke with should have known what was going on when I phoned and asked? Yet another thing about my mobile provider which leaves me not wanting to renew the contract when it expires over the summer.
Once home, with no film night planned for tonight, we slobbed about in front of the telly for the rest of the evening. And scoffed Christmas pudding...


text: DigitalMorning TV Producer Blogs About Why He Loves Job: "I Get to Witness History"By Vicki Salemi|August 8, 2012 ShareBy Vicki Salemi|August 8, 2012 Share Job search got you down? Or maybe it's not the search so much as internal politics? The daily grind? Commute? All of the above?Mike Brannen, morning newscast producer for KSTP, the ABC affiliate in Minneapolis-St.Paul, blogged about why he loves his job on the Society of Professional Journalists' blog network.It's times like these that make all of the hustling and hard work worth it. Here's an excerpt:"I love my job as a newscast producer because…Each day is different. It is unpredictable. An average day can turn into chaos in seconds. I feel an adrenaline rush when there is breaking news. I get to witness history.I work with smart, clever people. I know a little bit about everything. I know things before most people. I help people feel confident about what's going on in their world. It's funny when people say "did you see it on the news?", because I always say "yes."Adding that every morning is "a competition with other stations," he gets satisfaction beating them on a story.Perhaps the best part about it is all of the future news that is yet to print or in this case, air. He adds, "I know there are many more stories to come, because I've done this for only 3 years." Sharehttp://adweek.it/2kfiU4b copy Adweek Adweek

Eyes blazing with righteous indignation. Spittle flying this way and that. Well read dogged eared Bible flipping here and there. Poker dotted tie askew with a checkered shirt drenched on the collar. The jacket is a combination of blazer, suit and coat evoking the comedic "SuiCoBla". The sweaty arc formed under the armpit of the well-worn "SuiCoBla" very pronounced. The gesticulating hand making it more obvious.
The preacher was shouting on top of his lung. Reeling out message of woe upon woes. I dare say, the preacher woke up from the wrong side of the bed or mat as the case may be.
"You will all perish except you likewise repent". He bellowed, in well modulated voice.
Backbites, adulterers, fornicator, women wearing trouser, men wearing earrings, abortionists and the likes. you will likewise perish…
I instantly tuned off. Not wanting to pollute my days with one side message of woes and hell.
After all the dramatic preaching. I was shocked to hear the next thing from the firebrand preacher.
"You need to support the work of my ministry and I can assure you God will bless you".
I began to wonder if it was God really that called him or lack of job. I am not anti-preaching but…
He reeks of poverty and his appearance looked more like a beggar. In my opinion, to me he was practically begging for offering.
Another exciting day on our Lagos public bus.

Onto the outfit if you have been following me on any of my social network including my last post valentine equates being true to thyself.I mentioned i had a few exciting things up my sleeves and this is one of them.I can attest to the comfines my skirt gives i can do squats without unzipping it.That for me is a win outfit. I've been wearing the same sort of skirts with minor changes here and there for the past days and i think the novelty of layering it is slowly wearing off though that hurts.Looking for easy skirts to run my errands this has to be a NO skirt for me

Keeping in mind the school year's theme of Olympics, the paintings presented by each class were very original and especially well done! The ingenuity and creativity both in treatment of the theme as resembled in the costumes, music, etc. were a pure delight. Last but not least, a small surprise had been organised by the staff: an 80s themed dance ("Fame"), which also hinted at the Juilliard Dance programme to come. After the announcement of the school prizes, the party concluded with a cocktail that was well appreciated especially because the weather was nice, too.

I recently did a lesson on the basics of reading and writing in Geometry. You know, dry, dull stuff...what's a point, line, ray, segment, how do you write an angle, what types of angles are there, and so on.
While preparing all of this information I was thinking:
How can I expose misconceptions about such material so they learn it?
Remember, just seeing the facts is comfortable for students, but not only do they not learn, they somehow find confirmation that their held misconceptions are in fact correct. It's not as wild as you think, and it's not limited to kids. I took a psychology class in college and was unknowingly part of an experiment. I was asked a question, a seemingly throw-away type. But it's trickier than it looks and nearly everybody answers wrong. But it was of such little consequence that I did not remember my answer (you weren't supposed to). Then, I was shown the correct answer and asked if that's what I had said.
Turns out the vast majority of people mis-remember that they answered correctly. That is, they answered it wrong, but it's hard for us to imagine we're wrong, and they latch on the to the idea they were right...even when it's quite obvious they weren't.
This is so powerful that to be wrong and be aware of it, being confronted with things we don't understand and such, is very uncomfortable and unpleasant. Yet, that's what is needed for learning to occur. (And I'm talking the type of knowledge where understanding is paramount to success.)
My assertions are that what Derek Muller has unconverted here goes beyond science and film.
Students are not void of knowledge in your content. They have ideas. Teaching them is more like part repair work on the frame of a house before roofing. Presenting students with correct information will not shore up their misunderstandings.
Also, students need to experience some level of cognitive discord. In education, nearly all of the "best practices" work hard to do the opposite of this. There are things like Content/Language Objectives, or SWBAT, word walls and graphic organizers. I'm not saying those things don't have their place, but that's it, they have a place when balanced with quality instruction that explores misconceptions and such.
When you can deliver a lesson that explores the misconceptions the students will be confused. But if it is student lead, they won't be lost. The amount of mental effort required is much higher than a typical delivery of information and note-taking style. However, they'll learn!
So, how to create this tension and expose misconception over some pretty dull information?
Start by asking questions and exploring answers. Do not use your authority in the subject to state if an answer is right or wrong, initially. Instead, have students share their thinking on what other students are saying.
For example, a particularly nasty question that dealt with the boring definition-based lesson I just gave was, "What is an angle?" To someone versed in geometry, this isn't a big deal. But to a kid who hasn't taken geometry, this is monumentally difficult to describe. The best response I received was, "Measuring the space between two lines." So, of course, I drew to parallel lines and asked for explanation.
Now, this is just something I wonder, but is it possible that on these boring, just the facts, type lessons that exposing misconception is more important than ever?
Regardless of how that fleshes out, challenge yourself to challenge the thinking of students by exposing misconception through dialogue. Be brave enough to explore misconception and encourage students to seek understanding by challenging the think of themselves and others. If students understand the purpose of your methods, they'll play along.
Give it a shot, let me know how it goes.
Once again, thank you for your time.

Blurb: "A beautiful half-elven thief attempts to escape capture for having unwittingly stolen information that could expose a decades-long plans to overthrow the governments of central Flanaess.

- Issue 2: New Friends, Old Enemies
Blurb: "In this issue, safely away from Rel Mord, the half-elven thief Tinélith and her friends believe themselves to be safe amongst the Nyrond countryside. Unfortunately for them, roadside bandits and tribes of ogres know the countryside, too. With nowhere to run to and nowhere to hide, our heroes flee into the woods, where they unexpectedly come face to face with new friends and old enemies."
- Issue 3: Woodwych
Blurb: "After being taken prisoner by the rangers of Stalwart Pines, Tinélith and her cohorts are transferred to Woodwych. Will Tinélith's mysterious past be uncovered? Of course, there are bound to be surprising results that will shake the balance of power in Nyrond."
- Issue 4: Lambs to the Slaughter
Blurb: "Tinélith and her band of adventurers continue to flee from their royal pursuers when they are attacked by a band of fearsome bandits. Or are they? Random events begin to fall into place as the group begins to question whether or not they are even in control of their destiny."
- Issue 5: The Return
Blurb: "Last issue, Rel Mord's Commander of the City Guardsmen, Grakin captured the travelers, only to let them escape as part of an elaborate plan to frame the group as rebels carrying plans to overthrow the Nyrondan monarchy. As they escaped, the thorns of a poisonous plant scratched Snibb. As we join the group, they have made it to the town of Beetu in southern Nyrond…"
- Issue 6: Coming Home
Blurb: "Tinélith, a half-elf thief, Benni, the half-orc fighter, Snibb, a gnome wizard, and Bernleough, a human cleric attempt to avoid capture for the theft of government scrolls. In this issue, Tinélith skulks the lower levels of the Royal Castle of Rel Mord, pursued by Darzhellim, Bernleough and other unsuspected allies. Can Tinélith get the scrolls to King Lynwerd before they do? Or will the rebels capture her first, spinning the incident into one that incriminates her and exonerates them?"
More importantly, could the Black & White comics be raided to give you a background story or NPCs for a tabletop game?
And do any of the characters from these comics appear in any other GH sources?

Gas hydrate based desalination (HBD) technology to harvest LNG cold energy
Article by Dr. Praveen Linga, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, National University of Singapore (NUS).
Natural gas market has seen a phenomenal growth in the past decade due to shale gas boom and also the fact that natural gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel. Currently, natural gas is pre-dominantly transported in the form of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) from source (producing countries) to distant end users (receiving countries like Singapore, Korea, Japan etc). LNG is then converted back to natural gas by removing cold energy for the usage of natural gas for power generation (primary use in Singapore). LNG cold energy needs to be harvested; it is now wasted worldwide including Singapore. Sea water is presently used for re-gasifying LNG by heating it from -162 ˚C to 20 ˚C at LNG terminals. Developing innovative technologies to make use of the cold energy is a key area in research and development.
A team from the NUS Centre for Energy Research and Technology (CERT) under my leadership is developing a prototype to produce purified water from seawater by harnessing the cold energy of LNG via the gas hydrate based desalination (HBD) technology. This research project is funded in part under the Energy Innovation Research Programme (ERIP), which is administrated by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) and funded by the National Research Foundation (NRF) of Singapore and Industry Partner, Royal Dutch Shell.
So, what is gas hydrate? Gas hydrate is an ice-like compound that is made up cages made by water molecules with gas/liquid molecules (known as guests) trapped inside them at high pressure and low temperature conditions. Gas/liquid molecules such as carbon dioxide methane, propane, cyclopentane etc are some molecules that can get trapped inside the hydrate cages. However, salts and other impurities are naturally rejected during hydrate crystal formation. These crystals can be separated from left over brine (when seawater is used as feed) and dissociated to get back gas hydrate guest and purified water.
Although HBD was proposed several decades ago as a potential technology for desalination and progress has been made since then, successful commercialisation of this process has not happened due to major challenges – the slow kinetics of hydrate formation, crystal separation from concentrated brine solution and cold energy required for the process.
The NUS team is developing a new technique that employs fixed porous bed made up of sand and water. When propane is employed as one of the hydrate formers in a gas mixture, hydrate crystals form above the silica sand bed. This results in both enhanced kinetics and a natural separation of crystals from the concentrated residual brine solution. The schematic of the concept is illustrated in Figure 1.
High energy requirement is another pressing issue that needs to be addressed for industrial scale application of the HBD process. In order to solve this issue, the NUS team is the first to propose an innovative approach by integrating the HBD process with LNG cold energy of LNG re-gasification terminals. By using this cold energy for cooling the HBD process it would be possible to drastically reduce the energy requirement and make it economically feasible. In order to prove its economic and technical feasibility, NUS team is now working to build/demonstrate a prototype of the HBD technology. If successful this could be the beginning of a new chapter in innovative desalination technology and gas hydrate based applications.

text: I'm gearing up for the holiday season with a vengeance! I've made three batches of soap this weekend, and here is the latest addition to the fam. I haven't named this batch yet, but it's a delectable blend of sweet orange and clove. It's the perfect alternative to pumpkin (I'm not knocking pumpkin by any means!) This one reminds me of sweet potato pie filling. I've never wanted to bite into a soap as I do this one. So what's in it? It's got olive oil, palm kernel oil, Castor oil, and canola oil. I did not swirl this soap (I suck at swirling). This is just how it turned out. Can't wait til this one's ready!!!

"It's a small world after all…." (you're welcome, for that ear worm. Ha ha!)
I got to play "Seoul Tour Guide" for a day when a friend came to town for a business trip. My initial reaction (after the "Yay!") was, "How on Earth can I show her all of the awesomeness that is Seoul in one day?!". Well, here is how I attempted to do it.
Our first stop was Gwanghwamun Square and Gyeongbokgung Palace for some history and traditional architecture. I had her throw the peace sign, as that is a requirement for a true Korean photo op.
And then we had to do the obligatory selfie – say "Kimchee!"
We timed it just right (this was pure dumb luck) and the palace guards were performing the changing of the guard ceremony.
This was also my first time catching the whole ceremony, so here's a quick video clip of the music portion:
You are able to pose for pics with the palace guards, just like at Buckingham Palace, so we paused before heading inside.
I took some different pictures of the various statues and adornments on this trip:
ceiling of the entry gate
the throne and royal screen with five mountains
We headed over to the National Palace Museum for a quick tour through Korea's royal history and to grab a quick cup of coffee.
We headed back to the subway, where I snapped this lovely guardian on the tunnel wall, and rode over to Insadong for some shopping and lunch at Gogung, a Korean restaurant.
We were fortunate that there was a free performance scheduled at the Seoul Global Cultural Center that afternoon, so we hopped back on the subway and headed to Myeongdong. The show was traditional samulnori, with five musicians on various percussion instruments.
The instruments are the Kwaengwari (small, handheld gong), Jing (large gong), Buk (large round drum), and the Janggu (two-sided drum). The program moved through four different stages:
–Binari: a Korean song sung to introduce the Samul performance and bring blessings
–Andaemi Machum: a group performance on the janggu, to drive away evil spirits
–Samulnori: playing the sounds of nature and symbolizing Korean's joyousness and harmony
–Samulpangoot: playing while dancing and giving movement to their headwear (Sangmo)
I was able to catch a few decent videos of the Binari and the Samulpangoot – enjoy!
At this point, we had had a pretty full day, but she was game for more, so we walked over towards Namsan Tunnel #3 and took the free Ohreumi Elevator to the cable car station.
Still smiling!
This was another first for me that day – instead of the normal sweat inducing hike, we had a nice, easy climb to the top!
The cable car comes out by a cafe with a section of the locks of love, right behind the former signal station.
I think this is my favorite shot of N Seoul Tower!
And the view was great!
We ended our day with a harrowing ride in a taxi (I was giving her the true Korean experience, after all!) down to Itaewon for some dinner before heading home on the subway.
My Fitbit hit 19,000+ steps that day – whew – a full day, indeed!
There are a TON of other places to add to the list of "Must See"if you have visitors in town and more time than we had – here are a just few suggestions:
And because I'm just slightly evil, remember: "It's a small word after all…" 🙂

SPI: Spot Price Investigation
With shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Survivor and Friends pulling in
$400,000 (or close to it) per 30-second ad, Thursday night remains the priciest
night of network television.
But some advertisers, like movie studios, are paying huge premiums to be in
certain Thursday-night shows.
Take CSI, for example. As reported in Broadcasting & Cable's
pricing survey this week, the average price of a 30-second spot in the show this
fall is an estimated $400,000.
But sources familiar with the situation said some advertisers have paid as
much as $600,000.
It was a similar story for Friends. The B&C survey puts the average
price at $380,000.
But one buyer, representing a lot of studio money, reported paying an average
$570,000 for the show.
"For some advertisers who feel that they've got to be there, it's just the cost of
doing business," one TV executive said.

Buy custom Tuberculosis essay
Tuberculosis (TB) is the second most common infectious disease to cause death in humans and each year, about two million people die from TB (Varaine, Henkens & Grouzard, 2010 ). Tuberculosis has been affecting the human population from ancient times and still persists, despite the availability of modern antibiotics. Tuberculosis was common in societies of ancient Rome and Greece. Evidence of tuberculosis has been found as far back as Egyptian mummies. Throughout history, it has been called by many names like phthisis, consumption and white plague, all of which refer to the wasting nature of the disease. Before the discovery of antibiotics, TB was generally fatal, but nowadays, with proper treatment, nearly all cases of TB are curable. Despite the availability of treatment, there has been a global resurgence of TB cases since the 1980s and it was declared as a global health emergency by World Health Organization (WHO) in 1993. Socio economic issues like poverty, poor sanitation, overcrowding, malnutrition, HIV and partial treatment have created drug resistant strains of bacteria, which allow TB to persist even after massive efforts to eliminate the disease (NIAID, 2012). This essay describes the causative organism, route of transmission, risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of TB.
Causative Organism
Buy Tuberculosis essay paper online
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, also called tubercle bacilli (TB). M. tuberculosis bacteria belong to the family Mycobacteriaceae and is a slow growing, single-cell, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped microorganism found only in humans. It divides every 16 to 20 hours. M. tuberculosis is larger than other bacteria, measuring about 1 to 4 micrometers in length and 0.3 to 0.6 micrometers in width. It has a cell wall made up of complex lipids, which provide an effective barrier against many drugs, which explains why TB is a persistent and stubborn infection. M. tuberculosis is resilient and very adaptable and can quickly become immune to anti-TB drugs, giving rise to resistant strains (Jindal, 2011).
Routes of transmission
Tuberculosis is an airborne disease. M. tuberculosis is carried in droplet nuclei, which are airborne particles with diameters of 1-5 microns. Infectious droplet nuclei are produced when a patient of pulmonary TB coughs, spits, sneezes, shouts or sings. Droplet nuclei can remain suspended in air for a long time and transmission of infection occurs when a healthy person inhales these particles. The bacillus travels through upper respiratory tract and bronchi to reach the alveoli of lungs. From lungs, the bacillus may spread to other organs of the body via blood or lymph (CDC, 2010).
Risk Factors
All individuals infected with TB bacteria do not necessarily develop tuberculosis, as the bacillus can exist in latent state in the body. However, known risk factors for developing the disease include poor, unsanitary or overcrowded living conditions, malnutrition, very young or old age, immuno-compromised state such as in HIV or during chemotherapy and prolonged contact with an infected person (CDC, 2010).

Clinical Signs and Symptoms
Tuberculosis may be pulmonary or extra pulmonary. Pulmonary tuberculosis has many specific respiratory and non specific constitutional signs and symptoms, which generally appear only when the disease is in an advanced stage. Constitutional symptoms consist of fever, malaise, weight loss, tiredness, anorexia (loss of appetite), sweating at night and headache. Respiratory symptoms consist of chronic cough (more than 2 to 3 weeks), hemoptysis (blood in the sputum), breathlessness, chest pain and hoarseness of voice (Jindal, 2011).
Extra pulmonary tuberculosis occurs in about 15 to 20 % of all TB cases. The most commonly involved extra pulmonary sites are the lymph nodes, bones, joints, pleura and the central nervous system (CNS). Extra pulmonary TB presents non specific signs and symptoms, depending upon the organ involved. In case of TB of lymph nodes, there may be single or multiple, usually bilateral adenopathies. In skeletal TB, there is arthritis or osteitis accompanied by bone pain and loss of movement. Gastrointestinal TB may cause diarrhea, abdominal pain and anal bleeding. TB in CNS can cause meningitis, headache, stiff neck, vomiting, photophobia and fits. On performing a physical examination, the doctor may find signs like clubbing of fingers or toes, swollen lymph nodes, pleural effusion and unusual breath sounds (crackling) (Jindal, 2011).
Diagnosis and Treatment
Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is of utmost importance, not only for the patient, but also for the community to prevent the spread of infection to others. Diagnostic tools include chest X-ray, chest CT scan, sputum culture, bronchoscopy, thoracentesis, tuberculin skin test and in rare cases, biopsy of the affected tissue (CDC, 2010).
TB is treated with multiple antibiotic drugs taken for six to nine months, depending upon the regimen followed. The most commonly prescribed drugs are Isoniazid, Rifampin, Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol. Other drugs that can be used include Amikacin, Ethionamide, Moxifloxacin, Para-aminosalicylic acid and Streptomycin. It is imperative that the treatment should be completed and all drugs taken for the prescribed length. Failure to do so may lead to a relapse of the disease and the bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics. Infection by drug resistant bacteria produces drug resistant TB which is harder to treat and has a higher mortality rate (CDC, 2010).
Limited time Offer
Since TB is an airborne disease, its transmission can be prevented by adequate ventilation and limiting contact with patients. WHO recommends administration of BCG (Bacille Camllette- Guerin) vaccine to infants in those parts of the world where the disease is most prevalent (Dugdale, 2011).
Despite our understanding of the causative and risk factors for development of tuberculosis and the availability of strong antibiotics to fight bacteria, M. tuberculosis continues to evade our efforts at elimination. More research into this disease is the need of the hour as we require newer, more efficacious vaccines, more effective drugs and shorter drug regimens to improve patient compliance. An accurate and quick diagnosis is also critical to successful treatment and checking the transmission of the disease, for which we need better diagnostic tools.

This is one of many shocking revelations
that emerged at a recent public hearing (jan sunwai) led by the Mazdoor
Kisan Shakti Sangathan (MKSS), a people's organisation working in the
region since 1988. The public hearing is one of the means used by the MKSS
in its struggle to ensure the people's right to information. One aim of
the campaign is to root out corruption at the local level and demand
accountability from the development establishment.
The public hearing, held on 19 January
1998 in Surajpura village, focused on development works in Surajpura. It
began with a puppet show dealing with the abuse of development funds by
village leaders, politicians and government functionaries. Hundreds of
women and men participated in the hearing. Some of them had participated
in development works as labourers or masons, and had seen corruption from
close quarters or even been cheated themselves.
During the next few hours, 23 development
works recently completed in these panchayats were examined. These works
included the construction of anicuts, culverts and checkdams; latrines and
bathrooms; schools and other types of community buildings. The examination
began with MKSS activists disclosing detailed information on each item of
development work. This information had been obtained earlier from the
village panchayats and cross-checked through visits to work sites and
enquiries in the villages. Predictably, panchayat leaders had shown some
reluctance to part with information, but in the end they had no choice but
to co-operate. The Government of Rajasthan recently recognised the
people's right of access to official documents at the panchayat level: a
gazette notification now entitles any member of the public to a certified
photocopy of these documents at a nominal price. This landmark legislation
is itself the result of a sustained campaign led by MKSS, which culminated
in a 53-day long dharna (sit-in) in Jaipur in June-July 1997.
As the activists took out file after file
and invited participants to present their testimonies, excitement built
up. Soon a wide range of frauds were identified. To mason Dood Singh's
surprise, his name was found on the muster rolls of two different works
for the same period, while he had not even received his due wages for one.
Bhanvri Singh, a labourer, stated that she had received only Rs. 300 as
wages, as against Rs. 570 shown in the muster rolls against her name. The
crowd was suitably amused when the name of Devi Singh, a man who had died
30 years ago, was found on the muster rolls.
The 23 development works examined over
the day accounted for a total expenditure of Rs. 33 lakhs (1 lakh =
100,000 Rs./1£=64 Rs.). Of this, it was estimated that at least Rs. 5
lakhs had been siphoned off by various people in complicity with the
sarpanch (head of the village council). Of this amount, one third was
accounted for by fake bills for the purported purchase of cement.
A remarkable feature of the public
hearing was its constructive and orderly tone. The participants though
often angry, did not lose their temper. Their was no hint of compromise
with fraud, nor was the hearing confrontational. This constructive
atmosphere had much to do with the effective way in which MKSS activists
played their role of moderators.
The sarpanches (including two women) of
the five panchayats were present. Since their signature is required for
all items of development expenditure, they were considered to have an
inescapable responsibility for the frauds identified. The fact that the
sarpanches had joined the public hearing without coercion was itself
significant. On earlier occasions they had often ignored invitations. One
possible reason for this change is the success of another public hearing
held a few weeks earlier where one sarpanch returned Rs. 50,000 in cash in
front of the crowd and agreed to return another Rs. 50,000 in two
instalments. This gesture made a tremendous impression in the area. The
sarpanches who came on January 19 probably felt that there was no way out,
and that co-operating with the process was in their own interest.
The reactions of the sarpanches were
varied. Some of them attempted to challenge the accusations of fraud. In
other cases, they agreed that fraud had taken place, but blamed others for
it. In some cases they accepted that they had failed to ensure honest
implementation of works, or even admitted personal involvement in frauds.
At the end of the day, the sarpanches agreed to cooperate with the
follow-up process of recovering misappropriated funds. Some of them even
promised to return money themselves in cases where their personal
responsibility had been established. For instance, the sarpanch of
Rawatmaal volunteered to return Rs. 56,000 appropriated in the name of
non-existent water channels.
These may seem like small victories but
their symbolic significance is far-reaching. All over rural India, scores
of small development works have been undertaken in the name of the poor.
The main beneficiaries of these schemes, however, are not the poor but a
network of contractors, bureaucrats and village leaders who are looting
public funds for private gain. There is also a connection between this
development scam and the corruption of the electoral system, whereby local
leaders are allowed to misuse public funds in return for delivering votes.
The casualty is not just development but also democracy.
Against this background, the right to
information campaign is an opportunity for ordinary citizens to break out
of the vicious circle of collective apathy and individual hopelessness.
Aside from being a practical weapon to eradicate corruption at the village
level, the public hearing is a creative exercise in government for the
people by the people. It is a small but significant step towards the
transition from representative to participatory democracy.

Sunrise Vacation Home
Our Plotting Madness boot camp in the Mendocino is held at The Inn at Schoolhouse Creek in a gorgeous vacation home. Stay at the inn or nearby at one of the area's fine accommodations. Or grab one of two rooms in the house itself. In this warm, inviting ambiance, we'll gather each day, Monday-Wednesday, for our boot camp.
This spectacular modern craftsman style home offers a perfect blend of luxury, privacy and the spirit of the Mendocino Coast. Mendocino Sunrise, perched on the bluffs overlooking Russian Gulch and the Mendocino Headlands, beautifully combines old-world artistry with a relaxed contemporary style.
White water ocean views are captured from every room and, for the early riser, the south facing design provides spectacular sunrises and morning light while providing protection from the coast's north winds.
Features include: a bright and airy great room with 18-ft vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers, a well-designed galley kitchen with top-line appliances, and large glass doors that open on to great redwood decks. In-floor radiant heat provides "quiet" warmth while the Waterford wood stoves offer romantic ambiance and all the peace and quiet one could want.
Mendocino sunrise vacation home provides guests several opportunities to relax and enjoy your time away; from an old world Scandinavian sauna to the oversize soaking tub to the serenity of a private "basking garden" for ocean view meditation to private ocean access that is just a stroll away.
Two gorgeous guest rooms are available for rent during the retreat (Catharine and Susanne will be staying there as well). Contact us at email@example.com to inquire about rates and booking policies.
The Inn at Schoolhouse Creek is located in Little River, just 3 miles South of the Village of Mendocino, on the beautiful Mendocino Coast. It sits just 7 miles north of the intersection of Highway 128 and US 1, and 11 miles south of the intersection of Highway 20 and Highway 1.

For some reason, I am not excited about this year's playoffs as I have been in past years. Perhaps it's because of the way the Cards played this year. There were times this past season where the team played great and other times where they played horribly. The Cards were terribly inconsistent this year, for reasons that others have written about and I won't rehash here. It's hard to stay interested in baseball too when your husband, who owns the remote, would rather watch reruns of Everyone Loves Raymond, NCIS, or The Big Bang Theory than Cards baseball and only flips over to the game during the commercial breaks of the aforementioned shows. When this occurs, I keep up with the game via Twitter. I may also not be excited about the playoffs (and baseball in general) because of what has been going on in my personal life this year. It's hard to be interested in baseball when life is chaotic. But I digress.
You may recall that the Cards entered the playoffs as the wild card last year and they went all the way to win the World Series. Now that we have finally gotten used to (and sort of liked) the wild card format, MLB throws us a curve and gives us the 2 wild card team format, in which the 2 teams with the best records after the division winners play each other in a "play-in" game to get the chance to play a division winner in the NLDS. Confused yet? LOL!
Thanks to this new twist in the wild card scenario, even though the Cards finished second in the NL Central, they now have the chance to be the wild card and play in this year's playoffs. That's why the title of this post is Coming in through the back door. If it weren't for the play-in game, the season would be over by now. We bloggers would be looking forward to the 2013 season. We would be discussing how to improve the team next season. If the Cards lose on Friday, the review of this season and speculation about next season will begin in short order, I'm sure.
So let's discuss this play-in game. Is it game 163 of the regular season? It doesn't count in the season standings, so it can't be. Is it part of the playoffs? The Cards will play the Braves for the chance to play in the playoffs, so it's not. It's a game in limbo, hanging between the regular season and the playoffs.
Which team will go on and which team will go home? The Braves have the momentum. They have won 20 of their last 30 games. And this is Chipper Jones's final shot at the playoffs before he retires, so there's always that "let's win it for Chipper" mentality. The Cards, however, have experience at being the wild card. Most of the players on the 2011 World Series championship team are with this year's model. They know the pressure of winning and the joy of winning the whole shebang. They want to repeat. So who will win Friday's game? We can speculate and dissect things all we want, but we won't know for sure until after the final out.
MLB has swiped the NCAA's Final Four bracket format and developed a bracket for this year's playoffs. You can find it here if you're interested in seeing it. I would have liked to have printed the bracket, but it would have taken all the black ink in my printer's little black ink tank. Oh well.
Hope you enjoyed reading! See you next time!

A Hilarious Surprise Guest Interrupts Ellen's 60th Birthday Celebration
U don't look a day over 40!!!😄😄
i agree
I love her, but she definitely does look like she's well over 40
And she has professional make-up artists working on that face. She looks better than most people in her age though. Thats probably because most people ruined their bodies with hard work and didn't have her healthcare. More people should look as healthy as she does. :I
Shelly Lohia heh…well that's my opinion 😁😂😂
Swear to god, I thought that you were like 30 years old 😍😍 GOD BLESS YOU ELLEN!!!
Malaika Hasan ok thats definitely a lie. She looks like 40

Malaika Hasan Don't take God's name in vain
#ILoveYoueEllen 😍😍😍

Ellen doesn't look 60 at all.

Hope Elizabeth its a makeup
Hope Elizabeth i hope to look like her at 60….
Hope Elizabeth have u seen what she look like without make up? If u did u would take that back lol
Its true you can put lip stick on a pig to make it look good
People say it's all make up, but make up can't totally hide old age. Ellen has great genes and good health !!! 😄 Believe it!
well, she has de-gene-res…
Yeah. She kinda looks tired and stuff without make up but not old.
+blablueblub We know what plastic surgery looks like and Ellen *does not have it*. Her features are all *natural*, LOOK AT her pictures WITHOUT MAKE UP. She is NATURAL. Don't insult my eye-sight, you sad thing.
blablueblub just jealous.
she's also vegan.
Ellen looks like she is in her 40's..
I just can't believe she is 60!!!
I feel cheated that prejudice robbed us of the years we could have been entertained by this legend. How many years was that when she was persona non grata in hollywood? I love you Ellen. May you reign forever!
Ihtisam Seyd
Preach !
i'm so confused on how ellen is actually 60 I DONT BELIEVE THIS SHE LOOKS SO MUCH YOUNGER THOUGH
ada grace makeup
So she's as old as the grammy's
HAHAHA clever
She had more black people on her show than the Grammies 😂
Kavin Karunathilaka facts 😂😂
+Kavin Karunathiaka: Because you need to be good to win a grammy, you don't necessarily need to be good to get invited onto Ellen.
when you put it that way it makes it sound different
ellen is so soft she was so genuinely touched by anyone who visited her on her bday that she kept telling them she loved them… just watch the videos you'll see
Who else thought that was Melania Trump? 😂
go get your eyes checked
W a T
its not????
Well her daddy lived 93 years, and her mom is over 80. So this is very good genes and high quality lifestyle. Congrats Ellen!
But they left out one gene
Sofiaaaaaa! How i miss seeing both of them together. Love sofia's accent 😅
who is that?
Hahahaha Sofia!!! You nailed it!!!
I still don't believe Ellen is 60, she looks like she's in her mid 30's.
He looks older than 60 to me.
Taef Dewan yeah really! Must be the lack of guys haha
plastic surgery is one hell of a drug
iiSirLeonard RBLX what a stupid response

Thinking back on the inspiration for the wool garments in the Tough Love Collection, it stretched from just about every tangent one could imagine. Though all of the looks have common roots, they have very specific inspirations.
Generalization: most little girls are obsessed with ballet; if not then we were totally fascinated with the tutu alone!
When I was young, my love for tutus facilitated an easy transfer of obsession from one ridiculously short skirt to another; hence the parallel preoccupation with cheerleader uniforms and tennis skirts. But it was the 80's and you didn't have to have to be the least bit active to indulge in fashion reminiscent of active wear; nor did you need an excuse to wear a short skirt.
Fast-forward three decades later to my Fashion Marketing class at El Centro. Kevin, my professor was pretty cool, but alas, he too had an obsession: London. Specifically Savile Row. We talked bespoke tailoring, architecture, dirty streets and grey skies until I was officially hooked. Honestly, he had had me at 'grey skies'; and now all I wanted to do was design a tailored grey wool "something" that would speak to the cliché idea of what classic London fashion was but with a modern twist. However, that was only an idea; I didn't have a great vision yet.
And then there was the movie Sherlock Holmes… what Kevin had started, Sherlock pushed over the edge.
I walked out of the theater in a daze. The structure of the men's jackets, the wools, and the excess of clothing and accessories that seemed to serve no functional purpose fueled my desire to make a collection that was reminiscent of that time period and complimentary to the feminine form.
The marriage of all these elements from different aspects of my life produced a great garment, aptly named 'Angel' because it was truly the muse and guide for all of the wools in the collection; also because of the winged effect on the back straps.
When my brother first saw the finished sample he commented, "… if Sherlock Holmes was a ballet…." A girl can only hope, Baby Bro!

Planar PD8130 DLP Projector Review
Planar impresses again with its PD8130 Full HD DLP projector.
Planar impresses again with its PD8130 Full HD DLP projector.
We've reviewed Planar projectors before, but the PD8150's quality took us by surprise.
A screen that lets you use your projector in daylight - could this be the holy grail of large screen home cinema systems?
Planar's PD370 isn't strictly a TV, but don't let that put you off.
Once again Planar proves that there's no shame in making a pricey, premium-class product.
Could this be the best LCD TV we've ever seen?
Planar is making a habit of producing class-beating projectors for very good money. Here's another one...
Planar's PD7010 projector is the new kid on the UK block, so will it stand up for itself or get bullied?

It's funny that, for a car that's been out of production for so long, many people still seem to have strong opinions about the Land Rover Freelander. The early ones, especially, have a reputation for biblical unreliability and fragility – as a consequence, when I announced to the world that the new AROnlinemobile is a 2001 Freelander TD4, friends, readers and acquaintances either congratulated me for my bravery, or commiserated with me for a gross act of stupidity.
Much of the Freelander's reputation for unreliability is justified. It might be a clever concept, but the build quality left something to be desired – and, when you're sinking your own (or your company's) money into a premium-priced product like this (when new), dependability and quality should be a given. However, 15 years on and at banger money, one's expectations are a little bit lower, and the odd bit of flakiness here and there can easily be forgiven.
The first thing I should say in response to the comments on the original posting for this car is that it is front-wheel drive only, and the work has been done by a Land Rover specialist. It was done in the hands of its previous owner and, as such, I am happy to proceed with the car in this form – even though winter is on the way and its boosty turbo was prone to deliver plenty of wheelspin if you were injudicious with the throttle. I speak in the past tense about this, as the seriously worn front tyres have been replaced by a new set of Bridgestones, which have restored the car's planted feel.
In the month or so that I've had it, around 1000 miles have been racked up, and so far there have been no maladies, no breakdowns and nothing has dropped off. In fact, it's quietly impressing as a roomy, capable and pleasurable hack that's both good to sit in traffic in and cart the dog to muddy fields. Since I picked it up, I've rewired the stereo, fitted a new head unit, and – as previously stated – stuck on some decent Bridgestones.
There are a few little bits and pieces to do, such as replace a broken dashboard switch, fit a new engine cover and get some bumper care on those huge swathes of grey plastic used for the bumpers and wheelarch extensions. The front door speakers are also inoperative and the aerial is missing – both common failures for Freelander MkI owners. For those expecting reams and reams of copy about how rubbish Freelanders are, this might prove to be a little disappointing.
And long may it stay that way.

ASUU STRIKE UPDATE – NANS Disrupts Independence Anniversary In Ibadan
Activities making the 53rd independence anniversary were, yesterday, disrupted in Ibadan, Oyo State, by protesting members of the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, Zone D (Southwest) who blocked major roads in parts of the state calling on Federal Government and striking university lecturers to resolve their face-off.
They started the protest at about 9:30 am and marched through Agbowo, Mokola round-about, Total Garden, Agodi-Gate and stopped at the Iwo-Road inter-change.
Numbering over 1000, they complained among other things, the underfunding of the education sector and chanted anti-government slogans, accusing the Federal Government of lackadaisical attitude towards education.
To ensure that the protest did not go out of control, security agents kept watch over them.
The angry students through their leader, Monsuru Adeyemo said, "There is urgent need to save Nigeria's education sector from total collapse from claws of capitalist ruling elites.
"As a result of poor government funding, in spite of stupendous wealth of the country, Nigeria's public education, from primary to
tertiary levels is bedeviled with lack of adequate facilities for proper teaching, learning and research.
"Hostel facilities in the few schools where they still exist are dilapidated and insufficient, that is why over 10 million children are out of school in Nigeria.
"Only just this year, about 1.7 million candidates sat for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and from the available space in all the universities, polytechnics and colleges of education in the country only less than 29 per cent of the total candidates will be admitted, thus leaving out over 1.2 million candidates.
"We have to actively join the struggle to force the government to implement the agreement with all unions so that tertiary institutions can be reopened. if this agreement is fully implemented, it will mean better funding of education and a great relief to overburdened students"
