Shoulder impingement is a common condition that occurs when the shoulder bone forcefully presses or rubs against either the tendons or the bursa. Those suffering from this condition will likely experience a moderate amount of pain due along with inflammation around the rotator cuff. While shoulder impingement is more common in athletes and individuals with high levels of physical activity, anyone can develop the condition at any time in their life
For a better understanding of shoulder impingement, you must first take a closer look at how the shoulder functions. The groove of the shoulder is comprised of tendons and muscles on one end and bone on the other. Normally, there's enough space between the tendons and bones to prevent them from ever touching. However, those suffering from shoulder impingement will have a more narrow space where the bone rubs or impinges, against the tendons and bursa. It may only occur when the individual is trying to raise his or her arm, which naturally pushes the bone towards the tendons.
It's easy to feel lost and hopeless when you are no longer able to freely move your arm, but there are treatment options available for those suffering from shoulder impingement. The first step in recovery is to have your condition professionally diagnosed. A physical examination along with a x-ray should reveal whether or not you are suffering from an impinged shoulder. Once the condition is diagnosed, you can then work on treating it.
Taking a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drug may offer some temporary relief for the pain and swelling associated with shoulder impingement. To treat the root cause of the problem, however, a professional chiropractor will likely recommend a series of adjustments to help strengthen and stretch the affected area. When the posterior capsule is tightened, it can make the shoulder difficult to move. A professional chiropractor, however, is trained to release the tension here to allow for greater shoulder mobility. This will naturally reduce some of the pain and mobility problems caused by shoulder impingement.
The cause of shoulder impingement could be related to the spine or shoulder blade being slightly out of alignment. If one or more of the surrounding shoulder bones has shifted towards the tendons and bursa, you are likely to experience symptoms caused by this all-too-common condition. A professional chiropractor is fully trained in dealing with shoulder and spine alignments. They'll perform an examination to see what's causing your condition and how they can best treat it. Using this information, they'll discuss your treatment options and advise you on which they recommend. A couple of adjustments and alignments may help to guide the bones back into their normal position, essentially curing you of your shoulder impingement.
Shoulder impingement is a painful condition that can lower your quality of life. The constant swelling and throbbing sensation can make it difficult to perform normal, everyday tasks. If you are suffering from shoulder impingement or any other type of shoulder pain, talk with your chiropractor to see how they can help.Share

Many fad diets focus on which foods you should eliminate from your daily eating habits. Instead of removing "bad" foods, focus on including healthy foods that should be a part of any balanced diet. The healthiest foods are minimally processed, nutrient dense, contain no added sugar and are often a source of phytonutrients. The United States Department of Agriculture -- USDA -- states that consuming foods with phytonutrients is effective in reducing cancer and heart disease risk. Eating a variety of healthy foods high in fiber will allow you to ensure adequate nutrient intake and avoid overeating as well.

Extremely low in calories, spinach is one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat. One cup of boiled spinach contains only 41 calories, but it is a great source of over 13 vitamins and minerals -- including Vitamins A, C, E, and K, folate, and manganese. Spinach also contains flavonoids, which are plant compounds that may help prevent cancer.

Like spinach, broccoli is high in fiber and low in calories. Full of cancer-fighting phytonutrients, broccoli is a versatile vegetable that adds large servings of Vitamins C and K to your diet. Eat broccoli raw or steamed. According to a recent study in the Journal of Zhejiang University, steaming broccoli is the best way to retain nutrients when cooking.

Not commonly used in the United States, quinoa is a South American plant high in fiber and complete protein. As a source of whole grains, quinoa is higher in many nutrients -- including manganese and magnesium -- than similar grains like rice and oatmeal. Use as a breakfast substitute with fruit or as a side dish at dinner instead of pasta or rice.

Dr. Carl Marci, Executive Vice President and Chief Neuroscientist for Nielsen Consumer Neuroscience, is the former co-founder of Innerscope Research and a globally recognized leader in the new field of social and consumer neuroscience. His extensive work has been put to good use at Nielsen where neuroscience techniques are increasingly being used to ascertain viewer reception, involvement, attention and engagement. Nielsen recently partnered with Nielsen Catalina Solutions to facilitate the connection between a viewer's non-conscious emotional responses to advertising messages and in-market sales.
Charlene Weisler: Carl, tell us about your recent study combining single source sales data with neuroscience.
Dr. Carl Marci: This was a groundbreaking study where we combined in-market sales from single source data from Nielsen Catalina Solutions across 60 consumer package goods ads and then looked at the ability of different neuroscience measures including facial coding, biometrics and EEG (electroencephalogram) to predict those outcomes.
Charlene: What brought about this study?
Carl: Leslie Wood (Chief Research Officer at Nielsen Catalina Solutions) and I worked together in Las Vegas at the CBS Television City testing facility and she said they were really excited because, with their data, they were close to a pure measure of the creative -- meaning they could control for the targeting, the media weight and the timing of the advertising and really isolate just the impact of the creative itself without those other variables. We thought that was fantastic. We have a great measure on creative, so what if we put the two together? CBS Corporation Chief Research Officer and President of CBS VISION David Poltrack said that he would be very interested in that and provided the funding. It was a great meeting of the minds.
Charlene: What are some of the components of creative measurement?
Carl: If you think about traditional copy testing using surveys, particularly online, there are three dimensions: Do you remember it, do you like it, will you buy it? If you think about the neuroscience measures, there are three non-conscious dimensions -- attention, emotion and memory. The tools that we put together in this study allow us to measure passively, without asking any questions, as viewers experience the ad. We can measure each of those dimensions second by second. And then we put all of those metrics that we derive from that measurement into a statistical model and see if they relate to sales.
Charlene: Which neuroscience technique measures which non-conscious dimension?
Carl: EEG is the most complex. We are using 32 sensors coming off of the brains of consumers and from those sensors we can derive each of those three measures: A measure of attentional processes, emotional motivation and then memory activation. With the biometrics we can get to another dimension of emotion which is the emotional intensity and then with facial coding we can get at a third dimension of emotion, which is, does someone like it? (Do they smile, do they frown or do they look surprised?) If you think about emotion and all of its complexities, we are able to capture three of the most important components: How much energy is in it? Is it something I want to approach or avoid? Or is this something I like or dislike?
Charlene: Are you able to parse out those expressions where someone may have a negative expression but is highly engaged?
Carl: A negative response is not a bad thing. A commercial about a headache remedy could elicit a concerned look on the face of the viewer that registered negative but in fact they are heavily engaged. What we are finding is that indifference is what kills advertising. Getting any response is better than no response. What we have found in the research is that a negative emotion did not have a negative effect on sales.
Charlene: What is the correlation to sales?
Carl: We found high measures of correlation -- around 10% for facial coding, around 30% for biometrics, around 60% for EEG -- and when they are combined it goes up to 77%. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. And it also gives us great explanatory abilities when we are looking at second-by-second ad creative.

The usual starting inoculum gives an initial yeast population of abut 5 X 106 cells per ml of wort. Depending on the activity of the yeast inoculum, a lag period of six to eighteen hours may occur. Although no increase in cell number is observed during the lag phase, metabolic activity is well under way. The yeasts are synthesizing sugar and amino acid transport systems, as well as enzymes necessary for their metabolism. As noted earlier, the wort is sparged with oxygen prior to pitching, thus the wort medium is initially highly aerobic. This oxygen-rich environment stimulates synthesis of membrane-associated sterols and un-saturated fatty acids. Sterols, and in particular, ergosterol, are essential for formation of yeast cell membranes; likewise, the unsaturated fatty acids provide membrane fluidity. Because of these requirements, yeasts may grow poorly in oxygen-deprived worts.
Following the lag phase, cells enter into the logarithmic growth phase, and a primary eth-anolic fermentation period begins. Despite the aerobic conditions initially established by sparging, sugar metabolism by yeast occurs not by aerobic respiration (i.e., the tricarboxylic acid or Kreb's cycle), but rather via the Emb-den-Meyerhoff-Parnas (EMP) glycolytic pathway. Although Saccharomyces are facultative anaerobes, enzymes of the Kreb's cycle are not even expressed during growth in wort.The repression of these genes under aerobic conditions occurs only for as long as the sugar concentration is high. This phenomenon, called the glucose effect, is due to catabolite repression by glucose. When the availability of glucose and other fermentable sugars is nearly diminished (i.e., < 1 g/L), however, metabolism in an aerobic environment shifts from fermentation to respiration (Box 9-6).
Catabolite repression by glucose also affects the specific biochemical processes that occur during the fermentation. Although brewing strains of S. cerevisiae and S. pastorium can use all of the major sugars normally present in wort (glucose, fructose, maltose, and mal-totriose), metabolism of these sugars does not occur concurrently. In fact, wort contains more maltose and maltotriose than glucose, yet glucose is still metabolized first.This preferential use of glucose occurs because: (1) at least one of the glucose transporters is constitutively expressed; and (2) the gene coding for the a-glucoside (maltose and maltotriose) transporter (AGT1) is repressed by glucose. Only when the glucose is fermented (after about one to two days), therefore, will expression of
Given the importance of yeast to the brewing industry, it is not surprising that so much attention has been devoted to understanding the physiological properties of Saccharomyces cere-visiae. Most brewing strains, as noted elsewhere, are very different from ordinary laboratory strains.This is because the beer and the brewing environment in which these strains have been grown for hundreds of years is quite unlike the docile conditions in the laboratory. Thus, most brewing strains have been screened and selected on the basis of their ability to grow well in wort and on their overall beer-making performance. Strains also have been modified by classical breeding programs such that specific traits are (or are not) expressed. More recently, the application of molecular techniques have made it possible to directly and specifically alter yeast physiology by introducing genes that encode for specific properties.
Although the primary function of the yeast during brewing is to ferment sugars to ethanol and CO2, it is also responsible for performing many other important duties.The yeast must not only produce adequate amounts of end products, but it must also metabolize all of the available fermentable carbohydrate to fully attenuate the beer. The main end products produced by brewing yeasts are ethanol and CO2; however, small amounts of higher alcohols, esters, aldehydes, phenolics, and other organic compounds also are produced and may affect beer flavor and quality. Some of these compounds have a negative impact, and their production is discouraged. Of course, the ability of brewing yeast to perform specific metabolic functions depends on how well it tolerates the high osmotic pressure, high ethanol concentrations, and other physiological stresses found in wort and beer. Thus, there are considerable physiological demands on yeasts during the brewing operation.
When the brewer first adds yeast to the wort, the environment is highly aerobic, due to the oxygen-sparging step that occurs just after the wort is boiled and cooled.Thus, metabolism by the facultative yeast might be expected to occur via a respiratory route (i.e., the tricarboxylic acid or TCA cycle). In fact, Pasteur demonstrated more than a century ago that when facultative organisms, such as brewers' yeast, are placed in an aerobic environment, aerobic metabolism is preferred (the so-called Pasteur effect).Aerobic metabolism, after all, is a more efficient process, yielding considerably more ATP than anaerobic metabolism (36 moles versus 2 moles ATP per glucose).
However, in the wort situation just described, yeast growth occurs via fermentative metabo-lism.Why would glycolysis occur in this environment? In part, because when the concentration of available sugar (i.e., glucose) is high (>1% or 50 mM), the reverse of the Pasteur effect occurs. That is, even under aerobic conditions, provided there is excess glucose, expediency, rather than efficiency, dictates how metabolism will occur. In fact, the enzymes of the TCA cycle are actually repressed, a situation referred to as the "glucose effect."Another reason, perhaps, for why the fermentation route proceeds under aerobic conditions is that brewing yeast strains are, in general, highly accustomed to fermentative metabolism.
this gene, as well as the a-glucosidase gene coding for maltose and maltotriose hydrolysis, occur.
Sucrose, in contrast, is hydrolyzed by an extracellular invertase, yielding its component monosaccharides, glucose and fructose. The regulation of sugar metabolism becomes especially relevant during the beer fermentation when high glucose adjuncts are used. Under these circumstances, repression of maltose and maltotriose metabolism may exist throughout the entire fermentation, and the beer will be poorly attenuated.
Following transport, intracellular metabolism of wort sugars via the EMP pathway yields mostly pyruvic acid and reduced NADH. Pyruvate is subsequently decarboxy-lated by pyruvate decarboxylase, forming CO2 and acetaldehyde. The latter is then reduced by NADH-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase, forming ethanol and re-oxidizing NAD. Because a small amount of the glucose carbon must be used to support cell growth, some of the pyruvate is diverted, via pyruvate dehydrogenase, to the Kreb's cycle, where biosyn-thetic precursors are formed. Re-oxidation of NAD then requires an alternative source of electron acceptors, leading to the formation of glycerol, higher alcohols, and other minor end-products found in beer.
The logarithmic growth phase period continues for two to three days for ales, and up to six or seven days for lagers, at which point all of the mono- and disaccharides, and most of the maltotriose, will have been fermented. Cell mass usually increases by less than two logs.
Importantly, the fermentation is exothermic, meaning that heat is generated, so the fermentation tanks must be cooled and maintained. Either internal cooling coils or external jackets are used to maintain temperatures of 8°C to 15°C for lagers and 15°C to 22°C for ales.
For ale fermentations, yeast cells, as noted earlier, rise to the surface, along with the evolved CO2.The yeast can then be skimmed off for re-use later. For lager fermentations, cells remain suspended, but there is enough CO2 evolved during the early stages of the fermenta tion to form cauliflower-shaped clumps. This thick foam layer is called krausen, and as growth and CO2 formation become more rapid, corresponding to the maximum growth rate of the cells, a period known as "high krausen" is reached. A portion of this material can be collected and re-used to initiate a secondary fermentation, as described below.
Although it is possible to monitor the progress of the fermentation simply by observing CO2 formation, the preferred means is to measure the specific gravity.As the fermentable sugars are consumed, the specific gravity, expressed as °Plato, decreases. When the specific gravity no longer is decreasing, most of the fermentable sugars will have been depleted, and the fermentation is complete. The beer is then considered to be "fully attenuated."At this point, usually four to seven days after the beginning of the primary fermentation period, the fermentation vessel is quickly cooled to 4°C or less. However, some brewers, prior to cooling, maintain a high temperature to promote use of diacetyl and related vicinal diketones that are themselves produced by yeast and which are responsible for off-flavors in beer (discussed later).This so-called "diacetyl rest" may reduce the necessary duration of the post-fermentation conditioning phase, when diacetyl reduction would ordinarily occur.

STANFORD — Stanford starting nose tackle Terrence Stephens is ineligible for the Rose Bowl due to a secondary violation of NCAA rules.
Stephens' transgression involved the rental of his off-campus housing, according to Stanford.
Stephens, a senior, did not play in either of Stanford's season-ending victories over UCLA. His absence was initially attributed to what the school termed a personal matter.
"He'll get his Stanford degree, and he'll take his shot at the NFL," Cardinal coach David Shaw said. "This is a minor bump."
David Parry started in place of Stephens against UCLA and is expected to fill that role in the Rose Bowl.

When U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., delivered a speech last month outlining proposals for economic growth, his sponsor was the Jack F. Kemp Foundation, a Beltway organization set up in memory of the Hamburg Republican who died in 2009 and has recently been cited as a hero by some of the party's most prominent figures.
Rubio is one outspoken admirer. Another is U.S. Rep. Paul D. Ryan, R-Wis., who worked at Kemp's think tank, Empower America, in the 1990s and has said that Kemp was one of his principal mentors.
Perhaps the most surprising Kemp acolyte, given his anti-establishment persona, is Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. Paul has updated Kemp's most famous idea, "urban enterprise zones," which were intended to entice businesses into struggling inner cities.
When Paul was drawing up his own plan last year, his office got in touch with James Kemp, who heads the foundation named for his father.
"I went over and talked to a couple of staffers and looked at the agenda," Kemp recalled this month. The result was the "economic freedom zones" that Paul unveiled in Detroit in December.
It might seem a curious moment for a Jack Kemp revival. Many remember him as an evangelist for supply-side economics and its drastic tax cutting – exactly the approach some Republicans say needs to be replaced with a fresh agenda that grapples with joblessness and stagnant wages.
But there was another side to Kemp, a self-described "bleeding-heart conservative," who preached the gospel of upward mobility, economic opportunity, cultural diversity and racial justice. This Kemp personified the big-tent Republicanism that has gone into hibernation in the Obama years and that some Republicans think is crucial to the party's success in the 2016 presidential election, when voters will want to hear a more positive message.
It is one thing, of course, to emphasize reaching beyond the Republican base and quite another to connect with other voters, which Kemp was successful in doing.
"I watched him interact in poor communities with so clearly a love of people and a fierce idea of equality," said Sen. Cory A. Booker of New Jersey, a Democratic protégé of Kemp's, in an interview this month, recalling how Kemp's "compassion, engagement and comfort" shone through when he talked to African-Americans and Latinos.
That ease was partly the consequence of Kemp's years as quarterback of the Buffalo Bills – the tense, fourth-quarter huddles and locker room camaraderie, not to mention his role as one of the few white leaders of a boycott of the American Football League's All-Star game in 1965, when it was scheduled in New Orleans, a segregated city at the time.
Those experiences gave Kemp a street-level credibility rare for politicians in either party, though Ryan, for one, has been visiting inner cities, accompanied by Bob Woodson, a civil rights activist who worked closely with Kemp.
Just as important, however, are the policies Kemp devised and advocated. An autodidact enamored of big ideas, he espoused many, some at odds with Republican orthodoxy. The enterprise zone – an idea he did not originate, but championed when he was a back-bench congressman – has been tried in 40 or more states, with mixed results.
"It was a brilliant idea," Booker said, one that gave a boost to Newark long before Booker became mayor, and afterward, too. "It created at least 20,000 jobs, and there was a multiplier effect of financial benefits."
President Obama has introduced his own version, "Promise Zones."
Kemp was just as active when he was secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development under President George H.W. Bush.
"He was ahead of his time by pushing an upward-mobility agenda for the poor," said Cesar Conda, a longtime Kemp ally who is now Rubio's chief of staff, citing Kemp's support for "tenant management for public housing and reducing the payroll tax."
But do such ideas, and the robust government required to fulfill them, square with a Republican Party whose potent tea party faction is committed to fiscal austerity and budget cutting?
"That's a good question," Conda said. Following up by email, he offered this answer: "Kemp despised government dependency and redistribution of wealth. In this respect, he would be in perfect tune with the tea party."
Paul seemed to echo this sentiment when he said Kemp "stood for the idea that the American Dream was within every American's reach, but pro-growth policies are necessary to get the government out of the way."
In fact, Kemp often advocated a strong federal government and continued to do so after he left active politics.
During the subprime mortgage crisis, for example, he called for a loosening of bankruptcy laws to protect "the estimated 2.2 million families in danger of losing their homes" and then teamed up with Henry G. Cisneros, the housing secretary under President Bill Clinton, to urge congressional action against "predatory and discriminatory lending practices which have had a direct and significant impact on African-American and Latino homeowners and neighborhoods."
This put Kemp at odds with the tea party movement, whose first protests were inspired by Obama's attempts to help homeowners in just the way Kemp had advocated.
However attractive Kemp's inclusive conservatism may be in theory, it remains alien to many who now form the Republican base.
Some of Kemp's ideological heirs have already discovered this.
In 1990, when he was HUD secretary, the ardently pro-immigrant Kemp threatened to withhold federal funding from the city of Costa Mesa, Calif., unless it repealed laws barring social services for undocumented immigrants.
Last summer, Rubio helped draft the Senate immigration reform bill. Unlike Kemp, Rubio was loudly denounced by conservatives, some of whom still distrust him.
If Kemp "were still alive he'd have an important role," Rubio said last month. "I think he'd be the senior statesman of the reform movement. People would be looking to him as a stamp of approval on a lot of these ideas, and we'd be relying on him as a communicator."
The question is whether Republicans are ready to listen.

There are currently 5 students at University studying for Engineering degrees who have been awarded a bursary from the Trust since 2011. Here are some comments on what the Trust has meant for them:
2011 Award
"The support given by the Titan Engineering Trust throughout my time at university has been crucial, as it has meant that there is less pressure on me to work a lot of hours whilst at university. Being from Old Kilpatrick, travel costs to Glasgow University are significant, and the Titan bursary has helped greatly with this, as well as with the high costs of books for engineering subjects! The Trust's support has been very important to help with my progression at university. "
St Peter's the Apostle High School former Pupil currently studying in his 4rd Year at Glasgow University
2012 Award
"Having access to this bursary has helped me very much throughout my years at university in many ways. Not having to worry as much about earning money allows me to spend extra time on my studies - as well as in extra-curricular activities including volunteering throughout the university. The bursary has also enabled me to take up the opportunity of a lifetime: next year I am planning on studying abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark. Thank you to The Titan Engineering Trust for helping me to make the most of my university experience."
Clydebank High School former Pupil currently in her 3rd Year at Strathclyde University
2012 Award
'I am so grateful to yourselves for the bursary as being severely dyslexic I couldn't cope with the work load and have a part-time job. I have had a really successful year and know I wouldn't have done as well if I had to cope with working too. '

Our Story
Our story began in the summer of 1998 when we started to gather in homes, at picnics, in neighborhoods and in schools. In the beginning, we were just a group of people who loved Jesus, were passionate about our community, and had a heart to establish a community of people dedicated to making a difference in the world.
One trailer, two schools, one charter, and a couple of years later, we completed and moved into our multi-purpose building on Southlake Boulevard. Our vision was not just for worship, but for a focus on missions and outreach.
We've made a difference in this world by being committed to and participating in a variety of Missions-focused programs, such as:
- Presbyterian Night Shelter
- Community Storehouse
- Christ's Haven for Children
- Roanoke Food Pantry
- Operation Christmas Child
- GRACE -Feed Our Kids
- Ronald McDonald House
- SOS Children's Villages
- Habitat for Humanity
- And several local and international mission trips
We've grown disciples through our outreach ministries like Upward, and we've grown deeper through our Growth Group ministries and classes.

A process in which compression is followed by expansion; often used for noise reduction in equipment, in which case compression is applied before noise exposure and expansion after exposure.
companding(1) In the analog world, a method for improving audio reproduction by altering the dynamic range of the signals. On outgoing transmission, it raises the amplitude of weak signals and lowers the amplitude of strong signals. On incoming transmission, it restores the signal to its original form. Such techniques are used in dbx and Dolby noise reduction, AM, FM and SSB radio as well as in voice and musical instrument amplification to reduce feedback. See codec.
(2) In the digital world, a compression technique used in pulse code modulation (PCM). It reduces the number of bits used to represent digital voice samples in the loudest parts of the conversation. See mu-Law, A-Law and codec.

Visit this dedicated page to access a copy of the Evidence and Knowledge Self-Assessment Tool.
The page also has links to guidance documents; a webinar about using the tool; an editable Section 4 – Priorities and Planning for you to add your own local examples; an example of a completed tool after use with a fictional transformation team; and some contacts for people across regions who may be able to help you get started with using the Tool.
Why is it no longer known simply as the "Board Tool"?
The Tool is great to use with executive teams, to fully consider how well evidence and knowledge are being used in an organisation and to identify opportunities for developments. However the Tool has wider applications than just being used with Board members of an organistion, this is why we have changed the name. In fact we would recommend that you start using the Tool with a department or team that knows your services well and with whom you can work to create an action plan to help them use evidence and knoweldge even more effectively to meet their team objectives. Some services have also used the Tool as a starting place to develop local library and knowledge service strategy and planning documents or to scope an enhanced service.
How have you used the Tool?
Use the comments section to tell us how you have made use of the Tool. For some, the immediate response from having a conversation about the Tool has not led to a full action plan but after a period of time there has been greater uptake in existing services such as evidence-requests by the individuals who took part.
Feel you need more information and help with using the Tool in your organiastion?
We are currently preparing some refresher sessions: an introduction to the Tool which will be included in the four regional training events being held in September promoting #Knowvember2018 and some more in-depth sessions looking at engagement and exploring the Tool in more detail in Winter/Spring. Please let us know what else you would like included?

On August 8th, this past weekend, I turned 45 years old. My hilarious cousin Christine drove into town from Las Vegas and we partied with sparkling wine and horror movies. Man, holy shit, turning 45 was not as breezy as I hoped it would be. In fact, it was downright SOBERING! And that's not a word I prefer to include in my vocabulary. But it's true. It doesn't help that I've been very depressed. See, I've taken some very punishing hits in my life up 'til now, so, in my reflecting, I think I've decided to move forward with my aging (versus denying it) and simply try to make the very best of what I have. In other words, to GROW UP. So I'm back in therapy. I'm trying to stay on top of my exercise. I'm trying to drink a LITTLE less wine (only a little), and I'm trying to make a triumphant return, most importantly, to my drawing. No more coloring outside the lines for ol' Max.
Which brings me to 2 VERY SPECIAL treats I received on my Facebook wall over the weekend. I always appreciate birthday messages on Facebook. And I ALWAYS make sure to respond to each and every one. This year, I even tried to encourage my friends, whether I know 'em or not, to challenge themselves creatively with whatever they wished to express to me. And a LOT of peeps really came through!
Especially these two guys.
I can't even tell you how honored and moved I was to receive not one but TWO separate drawings of me. That's right! I got drawn! EYE did! I NEVER get drawn. I'm always too busy drawing everybody ELSE! But not this time. Oh, no, no, no. Check 'em out.
This first one's by actor Anthony Ingruber. Oh, you best keep an eye on this kid. This kid's got it goin' on. He's basically the reincarnation of Harrison Ford. It's eerie. He even plays a young version of Ford in a film called "The Age of Adeline". Anyway, here's his take on that old fartknocker, Max Koch. What I love most of all is that he included my evidently well-known fetish for ladies underthings. Ha!
Next up is cartoonist James A. Roberson. Check out his stuff over at his Jar Humor site. He's SO creative and funny. And he's making a real living on his merch. Here's his homage to that idiot over at the Uncorked blog. And I love that he included the skull bling.
"Weirdos, Ass & Wine"! How the hell do these relative strangers KNOW me so damn well?? I guess I'm just that transparent.
Okay, back to the ol' drawing board. I still have to tell you my Grand Canyon story and that will include a few illustrations. Wahoo!
WINE PAIRING: Here's a fun little drawing lesson for ya! Pour yourself whatever's open…

< Baggage Systems
Baggage handling is critical to efficient, cost-effective operations. Collins Aerospace's ARINC BagLinkTM - a baggage messaging server - enables baggage to
be sorted and routed remotely to save time, decrease costs and minimize errors.
Using International Air Transport Association (IATA) bag
identification - printed directly on the bag tag - ARINC BagLink automatically
verifies baggage and its destination, providing bidirectional message delivery
between the host and sortation system.
ARINC BagLink uses existing MUSE gateways to send and receive messages, and
can be easily integrated with many types of airline applications. Using existing
lines and avoiding connectivity to a centralized core room, the middleware
intelligence eliminates unnecessary infrastructure and lowers operating costs.
Significant cost-reductions and increased operational efficiency make ARINC
BagLink a beneficial choice for all airlines - big and small.

About Us
Michelle Myers and Catzie Vilayphonh met in the summer of 2000 when they participated in a writing/performance workshop called "Something to Say" at the Asian Arts Initiative in Philadelphia. The workshop was led by acclaimed playwright and theater director Gary San Angel who also founded NYC's performance collective Peeling the Banana. During this workshop, Catzie and Michelle collaborated on their first group poem "I'm a Woman Not a Flava" and debuted it in a "Something to Say" performance event at the Asian Arts Initiative in September of 2000.
Michelle and Catzie gained national attention several months later when they first competed as "Black Hair, Brown Eyes, Yellow Rage" in the first leg of the national Def Poetry Slam tour which began in the fall of 2000. The day after the Slam, Yellow Rage was Invited by Def Poetry producers Deb Pointer, Bruce George, and Danny Simmons to audition in NYC to be part of the first-ever Def Poetry Jam show at the 2001 HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado. After auditioning along with dozens of other hopeful poets, Yellow Rage was selected by the Def Poetry and HBO producers to represent Def Poetry Jam in Aspen; they shared the stage with spoken word poetry veterans Jessica Care Moore, Taylor Mali, Steve Coleman, and Black Ice. The show was filmed by HBO Def Comedy Jam director Stan Lathaan and became the pilot which was pitched to HBO producers to create a Def Poetry Jam television series. Production for the television show began in the summer of 2001; in October 2001, Yellow Rage received a full-house standing ovation when they performed during the filming for the first season of the critically-acclaimed HBO television series Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry. Catzie and Michelle appeared in the second show of the first season, which aired in December 2001; the show can currently be seen in reruns on HBO as well as on the Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry, Season One DVD. Yellow Rage also performed as part of the Def Poetry Jam College Tour through the early part of 2003.
Yellow Rage has performed coast-to-coast in the U.S., has gained an international following, and has been recognized for their artistic achievements. Some of their national performance credits include the 2001 HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado; the 2001 and 2007 APIA Spoken Word Summit in Seattle, WA and NYC respectively; the 2001 NY International Fringe Festival in the show Asians Misbehavin'; the 2002 and 2005 ECAASU (East Coast Asian American Student Union) Conferences at Duke University and the University of Pennsylvania; the 2006 GiRL FeST Bay Area Conference at the University of California-Berkeley; the 2006 Soroptomist International of the Americas International Convention in Philadelphia, PA; and the 2008 Campus Progress National Conference in Washington D.C. Artist awards include a Windows of Opportunity Grant awarded by the Leeway Foundation in August 2002 which enabled Catzie and Michelle to travel to Hawai'i (Oahu) where they performed for the local poetry organization/collective Wordstew and attended the Globalization Research Center's Trafficking of Asian Women and Children Conference. In 2006, Michelle and Catzie were awarded an APIA Residency (Artists & Performance in Action) by the Asian Arts Initiative which partially funded their second CD. Their poetry on human trafficking and modern-day slavery was featured in the book Speaking Truths: The Poetics of Defining Human Slavery, published by Achiote Press in 2007. Yellow Rage has produced two CDs: "Black Hair, Brown Eyes, Yellow Rage, Volume 1" and "Handle With Care, Volume 2."
For more than eight years, Yellow Rage has sought to make a positive impact through their poetry. Drawing from their own unique experiences, individual political ideologies, and personal life philosophies as Asian American women, Michelle and Catzie's group and solo poems address issues which explore the intersections of race, culture, gender, community, and self. Core issues examined by Yellow Rage include human trafficking, sexual slavery and modern-day slavery; anti-Asian violence; domestic violence; cross-cultural conflict and misunderstanding; cultural commodification; racism and sexism; mixed race identity; class divisions; and self-identity. At the heart of Yellow Rage's poetry is a desire to present a perspective that challenges ignorance and hatred and holds people of any race, gender, ethnicity, religious belief, etc., accountable for ideas and behaviors which in turn facilitate divisiveness rather than understanding. Through anger, pain, joy, celebration, sarcasm, and humor, Catzie and Michelle strive to facilitate honest dialogue with their poetry and hope to move themselves and others towards some universal Truth--to recognize the humanity of others and acknowledge the human desire for peace, healing, happiness, and love. Employing multiple poetic forms and delivery styles--including hip hop-influenced rhyme, character depictions, theatrical monologue, song, and free verse--Yellow Rage seeks to connect people, bridge cultures, and initiate a movement of positive and progressive change.

The wily and resourceful young screenwriter Mike White writes movies that seem as if they were cooked up by the skinny, self-consciously awkward guy who always ends up alone in a corner at the office holiday party. As it happens, Mr. White, who sometimes acts in the films he and others write, is a skinny, seemingly self-aware guy, though given his résumé — "Chuck & Buck," "The Good Girl," "School of Rock" and "Nacho Libre" — it's a safe bet he doesn't often play the wallflower, at least in Hollywood.
"Year of the Dog" is exactly the kind of story you would expect Mr. White to make for his directing debut. It's funny ha-ha but firmly in touch with its downer side, which means it's also funny in a kind of existential way. It stars the comic Molly Shannon as a woman who discovers her true self through a love of animals, though not that kind of love. She's not Catherine the Great, just Peggy the Good. It's a film about what it means to devote yourself to something other than your fears and desires, to shed that hard, durable shell called selfishness. It is, rather remarkably, an inquiry into empathy as a state of grace. And if that sounds too rarefied for laughs, rest assured, it's also about a stone-cold beautiful freak.
That freak would be Peggy, who seems like a punch line in waiting. Unmarried and just north of 40, she lives with her sole companion, a sturdy little beagle named Pencil, in a tidy little house someplace in Southern California. She works as an assistant to some kind of numbers cruncher, Robin (the divine Josh Pais), on an office floor filled with cubicles that, from just the right angle, look remarkably like feedlot pens. It's drab but pleasant enough, and anyway Peggy doesn't seem to mind or notice. Every morning she brings a big pink box of doughnuts for everyone in the office to share, then soaks in the joy. At lunch she listens to her office mate Layla (Regina King) plot her love life with the cunning of Sun Tzu.
We are, during the opening of "Year of the Dog," in seriously overtilled territory, somewhere between Alexander Payne and Todd Solondz. Mr. White lays out the narrow parameters of Peggy's life with an aggressive lack of visual flair in a style that might be termed, to bend a phrase from Gloria Grahame, Late Nothing. His most obvious choice, one that feels like a misguided shortcut, is to arrange objects and people symmetrically — including Tom McCarthy and Laura Dern as Peggy's obsessively matched brother and sister-in-law — inside the frame like displayed goods. It's a standard-issue comedy strategy, fine for Barry Sonnenfeld-level laughs, but it also suggests that there's nothing beneath these overly clean, tidy lines and, by extension, nothing much beneath Peggy, either.
This being a Mike White film, I was keeping my fingers crossed for more. One of the most talented screenwriters enlivening the commercial mainstream, Mr. White is a standard-bearer for freaks and geeks. (He worked on the critically revered television show of the same name.) He boldly let his own freak flag fly in the 2000 pathology-driven comedy "Chuck & Buck," in which, as a childlike man (Buck) who romantically stalks an old friend, he slithers under your skin, delivering an off-putting performance that deliberately risks turning a creepy story into an unlikable one. "Year of the Dog" limns less dangerous territory, but one of its modest glories is that here too Mr. White takes some appreciable chances with our sympathies, notably through a leading character who has more in common with Buck than might at first appear.
It takes a while, but Mr. White does peel away his film's surface banality. What gets everything moving, including his somewhat sneakily or perhaps cautiously articulated intellectual interests (this is, after all, a studio-bankrolled comedy), is Pencil's untimely death, which tears a hole in Peggy's world and eventually her psyche. For Peggy, a woman who greets her beloved four-legged friend with a toothy smile that rivals the sun for warmth (Pencil shines right back), this isn't the death of some adopted stray, one in a line of carelessly loved dumb beasts. It is a shock to the system, a life-altering tragedy, a terrible end that becomes — movingly, through one odd story kink after another — a radical new beginning.
Reader, she becomes a vegan. She also advocates and donates, destroys a couple of fur coats and takes her young niece and baby nephew to an animal sanctuary where rescued horses, cows, pigs and chickens roam about breathing fresh air with the green grass below and the blue sky above. Into the void left by Pencil she crams a couple and then a couple hundred and then thousands of abused and abandoned creatures, both by petition and by adoption, transforming into a kind of Angelina Jolie of the animal kingdom. She also finds what she hopes may be her Brad Pitt in the form of a pasty lump who volunteers at the A.S.P.C.A., ignoring or ignorant of the warning embedded in his name: Newt (Peter Sarsgaard, superb).
In other words Peggy becomes, at last, a fleshed-out character worth spending time with, not because she's funny (she is) or nice (not always) or sympathetic (not necessarily). Instead it is precisely because she isn't especially pleasant to be around, because she makes some wrong and, depending on your worldview and palate, some suspect choices — fermented soybean, for starters — that she and the film finally start to hum, whistle and work. After the story settles in, Ms. Shannon, who remains best known for her tenure on "Saturday Night Live," fits Mr. White's anti-intuitive purposes admirably, in large part because so much of the performance willfully goes against the grain, pushing at us with naked, frenzied need that can feel embarrassing and, at times, almost grotesque.
In its broad outline, "Year of the Dog" is the story of a woman who goes slightly bonkers and becomes an animal-rights advocate, not because she's bonkers, but because the love of animals is where she finally finds her peace of mind, sense of self, grace. It's also about the creation of conscience, about what makes us human and why, a surprisingly little-told story in contemporary American cinema.
You can learn a lot from our movies, like how to hold a gun and blow someone's head off. It's more unusual to watch a film in which the central struggle is how to be happy and sane. There's a touch of the saint in Peggy, true, but what makes me love her is that she's ridiculously, beautifully human.
"Year of the Dog" is Rated PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned). Bring hankies.
Opens today in New York and Los Angeles.
Written and directed by Mike White; director of photography, Tim Orr; edited by Dody Dorn; music by Christophe Beck; production designer, Daniel Bradford; produced by Mr. White, Ben LeClair and Dede Gardner; released by Paramount Vantage. Running time: 97 minutes.
WITH: Molly Shannon (Peggy), Laura Dern (Bret), Regina King (Layla), Tom McCarthy (Pier), Josh Pais (Robin), John C. Reilly (Al) and Peter Sarsgaard (Newt).


text: Lionel Richie has fuelled reports his daughter Nicole will wed her fiance Joel Madden at his Hollywood estate after a number of big moving trucks were snapped being unloaded outside his home. The socialite was rumoured to be preparing to tie the knot with Good Charlotte rocker Madden this weekend (11-12Dec10) and the increased activity in the crooner's front yard suggests the gossip is true. Security also appears to have been stepped up ahead of the ceremony - three bodyguards were spotted monitoring the area. Samantha Ronson is expected to be a bridesmaid at the nuptials, while it is currently not known whether Richie's other best pal Christina Aguilera will be too busy promoting her new movie Burlesque to attend. Richie and Madden have been dating for over four years and have two children together - Harlow, two, and Sparrow, one. Sources claim daughter Harlow will serve as a flower girl at the wedding.

This is an example of a use-case for the G100 in monitoring refrigeration trucks. Setup is the same for a Dart.
The truck is required to be tracked as per usual, with the additional requirement for logging of run hours of the refrigerator, and the refrigerator status (OFF/ON) to be displayed in the live viewer. This could easily be applied to any use-case where a secondary device requires logging or display in the live viewer.
The G100 is wired into the truck battery and ignition as usual.
- Pin 24 (RED) to the positive terminal
- Pin 12 (BLACK) to the negative battery terminal
- Pin 23 (WHITE) to the ignition
The refrigerator battery is connected to the following leads on the harness
- Pin 16 (BLUE) to the positive terminal. This is the pin for digital input 2. Any digital input pin could be used.
See the G100 Harness Definition for more information.
Once this is set up, the inputs need to be mapped and bias resistors (pull up/pull down) need to be set.
In OEM
In the Digital Input 2 tab. (Or whatever digital input you want to use) These settings are used.
Digital Input - Input 2: So digital input 2 will be set high when the refrigerator battery is on, allowing state changes to be seen and logged in Telematics Guru
Bias Resistor - Pull-down: We want the bias resistor set to Pull-down. This pin will be pulled down to ground (held LOW) when no input is applied. When the fridge is turned on, input 2 receives a HIGH signal due to the voltage now being supplied from the running fridge battery.
With this setup we can detect the change in the input.
Battery OFF = Input is pulled down and reads LOW,
Battery ON = Voltage is suppled and Input reads HIGH.
Active Level - High: The battery turning on is logged as active (1).
Log On Active/Log On Inactive/Upload On Inactive: Setting uploads on active and inactive will display the status of the refrigerator in Telematics Guru quickly, rather than waiting for heartbeat or trip uploads. In this case we want to know the status of the refrigerator when the truck is parked, so we set Yes so the G100 uploads whenever the refrigerator is turned on or off.
Config1: Debounce time - stops multiple events registering. If the voltage seen at the input pin is likely to fluctuate during start up, set this to a reasonably high value (0.5 - 2 seconds).
In Telematics Guru
Digital input 2 is named the Fridge Motor, and set to display in trip and on the live viewer. To be able to get event reports for fridge run times, we must create an event, in the Admin -> Event Types Menu, and set this in the input mapping.
The event type will now display in the live viewer:

The Gorilla Glass protecting the Galaxy S III and iPhone 5 may stand up admirably to everyday use and in-pocket key scratches, but it's still susceptible to cracking if something lands on the phone's screen—or if you drop your device on the ground. If you're prone to butter fingers rather than sure hands, you might want to check out Seidio's new Vitreo screen protector for those very phones, which claim to offer "unbeatable, shatterproof protection."
The secret sauce lies in the Vitreo's tempered glass design, which is rated for sturdy 9H hardness. That makes them more similar to an actual Gorilla Glass sheet than the flimsy plastic protectors that are so common today. The Vitreo protectors still stick to the surface of phones with a silicon adhesive, eliminating gaps between the protector and the phone's actual display while adding just 0.55mm (or 0.02-inch) of thickness to the phone's profile.
Seidio offers Vitreo screen protectors for the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S III for $39.95 a pop, while a Vitreo protector for the second- through fourth-generation iPad will set you back $69.95. That's a whole lot more than a standard plastic screen protector, but a whole lot less than the cost of replacing a shattered screen.
It'll be interesting to see how Seidio's shatterproof claims hold up in the wild—Gorilla Glass is also said to have a 9H hardness rating and it doesn't exactly take a direct blow like a champ—especially if you drop a phone on its corner edge. Of course, if your screen protector cracks from a withering blow but your phone's display remains intact, that's a win in our book.
