In its day, Buster Keaton's 1926 comedy The General was a huge flop, but it has since gone on to become retroactively seen as a classic. Some would argue that it is one of Keaton's best films, and it has certainly become one of his best known to modern audiences. The film was loosely inspired by the Great Locomotive Chase of 1862, an incident during the American Civil War in which Union forces attempted to hijack a train and take it northward while sabotaging the tracks to cut off supply routes for the Confederate Army, only to be pursued and eventually captured.
Keaton's film is likely not an accurate recreation of what happened historically. Instead, he uses the story as a means to bring out his iconic brand of slapstick humor. It was not an easy movie to film either. In order to film the moving trains, cameras had to be placed on parallel tracks and move alongside the various locomotives used throughout the film. That said, Keaton does have some things to say about the American Civil War amidst the various stunts, accidents, and misunderstands of his bumbling protagonist Johnny Clay.
The General makes the clear and deliberate choice of avoiding any reference to the politics of the American Civil War. The film is shown from the perspective of the Confederacy, but for the most part the details of why anyone is fighting are left out. All that is established is that there are two factions: the North and the South, and both hate each other. Instead of establishing any background on the war, Keaton begins by placing the viewer in an unidentified southern town where he first introduces Clay as an everyman protagonist.
We learn that he is a fairly ordinary person who has "two loves" in his life, his engine (the titular General) and Annabelle Lee (Marion Mack) to whom he is presumably engaged. We see that Keaton is living what for the time may have been a fairly normal life, with him going to visit Annabelle's house and knocking on her door, unaware that she is standing right behind him. This brief but notable focus on everyday life is extremely important, because not long after we learn that the Civil War has begun. No mention is made of the politics or why the war is happening.
In fact, we only find out by word of mouth, one man passing the story on to our heroes (presumably after reading about it in a newspaper). Instead of focusing directly on the war itself, Keaton instead opts to place the emphasis on how it affects the people of this particular town, especially Johnny Clay and Annabelle Lee. Both are treated throughout the movie as civilians caught in the crossfire of a war they barely understand (only at the end does Keaton become a soldier, and even then not a very good one).
This lack of understanding comes to the forefront early on when we see the mentality that comes with the outbreak of the war. The people in town clearly have never served in the military before, and a sentiment quickly develops that the men have to enlist and fight for the south. Annabelle's father and brother immediately agree to this, and quickly press Clay into following. But Clay becomes so excited to enlist he actively cuts in line and almost walks right past the recruiting booth by accident. When they refuse to enlist him (under the assumption that Clay would be more useful as an engineer than as a soldier), he makes multiple repeated efforts which include a "disguise" which involves tipping his hat sideways and stealing other people's recruitment slips.
After all that, Clay fails to enlist and even though he had no say in the matter, finds his life shattered when he is immediately branded a coward. Annabelle's father later manages to twist the facts to make it sound like Clay was too scared to enlist (and describes being reluctant to go to war as a "disgrace"). This is unfortunately something that tends to happen when people who have never seen war up close get too patriotic. The same thing happened years later during World War I (and could easily have been witnessed by Keaton himself), another era in which men were peer pressured into going to war and faced with public shaming if they failed to do so.
This one action seemingly destroys the ideal life Clay had shown in the movie's opening. Annabelle, having been told by her father that Clay is a coward, refuses to speak to him, likely ending their relationship for now. The war has only just started and already Clay is beginning to feel its effects without being anywhere near any of the battlefields. His feelings are visually conveyed in one of the film's most iconic shots, in which Buster Keaton sits on the wheels of a steam locomotive while an engineer fails to notice. Keaton gets moved up and down in one direction, through a tunnel, showing the lack of control he has over what is going on.
As the movie progresses to some time later, we see that the Civil War has started to have a much greater effect on the South. Annabelle's brother appears to have been wounded, and his arm is in a sling. Her father has apparently faced even worse injuries, enough that she is taking a train to go see him. At this point, she is really more or less an ordinary person just trying to cope with a difficult situation, another victim of the war who ends up getting mixed up further by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. One small act of inconvenient timing leads to Annabelle being abducted by Union Soldiers and dragged into northern territory. Clay is not even aware of this happening, all he understands is that his train has been stolen and he needs to get it back.
Clay initially takes on this role purely as an engineer. The Union soldiers manage to sabotage the telegraph lines, so the only way to call for backup is to drive to the nearest outpost and alert the soldiers there. Even then, in all the commotion, Clay accidentally forgets to lock the transport car to his engine and ends up pursing the Union on his own. He does this entirely by accident and does not realize what has been going on until it is too late to turn back. Here, Clay finds himself alone, stuck in the middle of a war and not really on either side. All he is concerned about is reclaiming The General, and he lacks any real interest in what is actually going on.
Unfortunately, he also has to adapt to the difficult circumstances brought out by the Union soldiers, who routinely sabotage the tracks and pull a variety of tricks to try and get ahead. Clay has to resort to improvisation, relying only on whatever he can find, and even this is not always enough. We see that he quickly starts to run low on firewood and breaks his ax in the process. He does manage to find a canon, but it turns out not to be very effective. The first shot only launches a ball into his cab, the second nearly takes out his train. The only reason he is even able to keep the Union Army running is because they mistakenly assume that he is driving a train full of Confederate soldiers.
Clay's status as a civillian comes up later on, when in his pursuit, he witnesses a skirmish between the Union and Confederate armies. The film mixes various shots of soldiers on both sides along with Clay struggling to keep his head down while moving forward. In all the chaos, nobody seems to notice him, but he is able to witness the destruction that occurred in the war, if very briefly and from a (relatively) safe vantage point. All Clay wanted was his engine back, but now he is stuck in the middle of a war which he has no control over.
Eventually, Clay is finally forced to stop, but by this point there is little he can do. He has unwittingly followed the soldiers into Union territory, and now finds himself lost and alone. It is entirely by accident that Keaton manages to obtain information. He begins the sequence stopping at the first building he sees, where he tries to quickly obtain food. It is only coincidence that he ends up accidentally wandering into a military conference. The only reason he even learns Annabelle has been taken is because he manages to briefly glimpse her through a rip in the tablecloth, but during the conversation, he is mainly trying to avoid being caught.
Clay does manage to rescue Annabelle, but not out of any sense of patriotic duty. He does it because, as was established in the beginning of the film, he cares for her. While Clay did overhear information that would be useful to the south, his main goal is really to get out of Union Territory alive, and to do so he has to make a large gamble. The only viable way of quickly getting out is to sneak into a military trainyard and steal back the General, which is a long shot at best. One mistake could mean the difference between life and death in his case.
When Clay finally returns, he is almost shot after a sentry mistakes him for a Union soldier, and quickly has to change into a southern uniform. When he brings information to the people at home, it ends up being chaotic once again. Clay is quickly lost amidst the chaos of the battle. First he is just trying to focus on not getting run over in the street as cavalry charge into position. When he actually enters, his only weapon is a sword that fails to stay together, and spends much of it unsure of what to do. Every time he draws his sword, the blade falls off, making it largely useless except for one accidental victory (it manages to take out an enemy sniper).
Clay tries to co-ordinate some of the soldiers, but this proves ineffective as he keeps watching them die. In the end, it is nothing more than luck that gets him through his mess, and his accidental heroics end up getting him a promotion to lieutenant. Still, this hardly makes Clay's life any easier. Although he is able to win Annabelle back, he also finds himself struggling with new responsibilities and problems he was never prepared to handle. This is humorously shown by the film's final moments, when Clay and Annabelle try to have a private moment on the wheels of an engine (contrasting the earlier scene where Clay was alone in the same position) only to keep getting interrupted by the presence of a large garrison of soldiers.
In the end, Clay's life will never be the same. Even if things have ultimately worked out, he has been affected by the war just as everyone else has or will be, and he will continue to feel its effects (this is especially likely when one considers that the South lost the war, which could easily have a negative impact on Clay's personal life). The General is really a story about how ordinary people are affected when they are drawn into a war they do not understand, and how it can permanently change their lives.

All right, I know it's a ridiculous metaphor. Human rights and dignity are not a game. The LGBT community won a lawsuit in Federal Court by having Utah's discriminatory marriage law declared unconstitutional by Judge Robert Shelby. The State countered with a request for a stay, which was denied, then denied again by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver. So the State presented the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, and Justice Sotomayor, who is over the 10th Circuit Court, agreed to a stay.
That left hundreds of same-sex couples — who had gotten marriage licenses and been married legally in Utah during the giddy time following Judge Shelby's decision — in a legal limbo. Attorney Mark Lawrence, who filed the lawsuit by enlisting two gay couples being denied their right to marry, said he had expected just what happened with the stay. He also said that it didn't shake his belief that eventually Judge Shelby's decision will be upheld and same-sex marriage will finally be the law in the State of Utah.
This, of course, drives the religious and conservative community here crazy. Just after the first of the year Utah governor Gary Herbert chose a new Attorney General (the former AG resigned after a scandal), and that AG, Sean Reyes, promised to spend however much money it would take to fight same-sex marriage.
Jackie Biskupsie (center) marries Joyce Lewallen and Lecie Johnson on December 23, at the Salt Lake County offices during a crush of marriage licenses issued and hallway marriage ceremonies performed after Judge Shelby's ruling was announced.

That there are those of us who believe that same-sex marriage will eventually happen anyway is of no concern to those who oppose it. They will even vow to spend our taxpayer money generously to fight it!
State officials also decided that rights will not be extended to those who were married during that short period when Judge Shelby's decision was announced until the stay was in place. A couple of days ago United States Attorney General Eric Holder announced that married same-sex couples in Utah will receive the benefits of federal law. So now the ball (there's that football metaphor again) is in Utah's hands. The question is, for instance, if same-sex married couples are allowed a federal tax status, what about a state tax status? The legal questions seem unending.
While all of the legal stuff goes on, the Mormon church issued this letter to be read to its members in their meetings (presumably today, Sunday, January 12, 2014), part of which states: ". . . changes in the civil law do not, indeed cannot, change the moral law that God has established. God expects us to uphold and keep his commandments regardless of divergent opinions or trends in society." In an article by Brooke Adams about the church letter published January 10, 2014 in the Salt Lake Tribune, the church "called for civility on both sides of the debate while the lawsuit proceeds through courts." This from a church which recently admitted that their long-held teachings about black people were not doctrinal, but prejudice on the part of their second "prophet," Brigham Young (who also had 27 wives), and the same church that backed and helped fund the fight for Proposition 8 in California, which was hardly civil. Lawsuits filed against that law led to the same ruling (this time by the Supreme Court in a 5-to-4 decision) that Judge Robert Shelby came to in December. In short, discrimination against a people because of their color, religion or sexual orientation cannot be written into the law. The state cannot tell someone who to love or who they can — or cannot — marry.
In the meantime, and forgive me for extending that silly football metaphor, the LGBT community has had to punt, and the ball is now in someone else's hands.

We have the grandchildren over this weekend. The young lady came yesterday afternoon and will most probably stay until Sunday after lunch when her parents plan to take her to our annual show and then leave the little man with us for the afternoon.
So while she and her granddad did some drawing and colouring I got to do the binding of this quilt.
With this done I printed the label, popped the quilt in the washing machine and got up early this morning to add the label. Apart from the red and yellow, all the fabrics used were from my stash.
This is now big enough for a single bed and I guess the young lady will get it.

Chick-Fil-A @Home Mobile
- Iterating on mobile layout
- Simulating in use scenarios
- Old vs new interface
"Create an intranet experience as awesome as eating at a Chick-Fil-A store"
Chick-Fil-A sells millions of chicken sandwiches worldwide and has the best customer experience of any fast food chain. Their corporate branding is clever and memorable, but the experience Chick-Fil-A employees had when they logged into the company intranet was not on brand and was not awesome. We were tasked with fixing that and "it was our pleasure" to do so.
The internal development team at Chick-Fil-A had already scoped out the technical specs and we had detailed wireframes, so we jumped right in by creating a few options for colors, textures and styles. We landed on an aesthetic that put the focus on the content itself, not a fussy interface. We created layouts for each of the three different user types and sweat every detail of the UI – including an icon system for the different sections and customized weather icons.

I was thinking I would find it quite helpful, and I'd imagine others (especially newcomers) would too, if there was a page that explained all the features of this site. Where to find old A&M cooking videos, when contests begin and end, how often and when News is updated, how recipes displayed on the homepage are selected and where to find them when they're no longer displayed, etc. Basically an overview of the site. I realize this may seem self explanatory. But there is so much on teh site and so much more visible now, with the upgrade, that I think it might make navigating easier and allow folks to really take advantage of everything available. Also, why are editors' picks now called community picks? Aren't they editors' picks and what is wrong if they are?
There has been and still is a FAQ page, but it needs updating or replacing. I've previously suggested a Users Manual, or something of that nature, to cover all the questions you are mentioning. I think that this 'update' is going to be an ongoing project for a while, so hopefully when the dust settles we'll get some (needed) handholding.
Hi there -- this is a great idea! Our thinking in allowing site-related questions on the Hotline was to crowdsource our FAQ page for the new site. We figured this way we'd understand what questions our community had, rather than us just guessing what questions they'd have. Of course, now that the site has been up for nearly 2 weeks, we need to start thinking about distilling all the questions that have appeared here. Homework! But not to worry, we will do it.
As for editors' picks and community picks, we decided to rename them because we realized that the community was doing as much selecting as we were now that community members were testing many of the recipes. We felt community was a more expansive and more accurate word for those recipe selections.
Thanks for your note!
I too was thinking that it would be great to have a "user's manual" or more expansive FAQs as a guide to navigating the new Food52. In addition to ATG117's excellent points, for new visitors to the site, I'd like to also suggest perhaps having an overview of the food52 columnists, the various niches that they fill, and what days that they each have their new columns posted on the site.
Sign me up!!! I'm still having a great deal of trouble with recipe searches. I don't know if it's me or not.
One follow up question re community's picks: When you say the community is doing more selecting, am I correct in assuming you are referring to the community members who test the recipes that are selected to be tested for each contest theme?
And by you, I was referring to Amanda's reply. But really could have addressed this more generally to anyone who knows the answer. Thanks!
After we select the finalists and a list of our own editors' picks (now called community picks), we offer up a list of recipes that we thought looked great but didn't have a chance to test. Community members call dibs on these recipes and then they test them and recommend whether or not they should be named community picks.
Got it. I never realized community testers recommended whether or not the recipes they test should be picks, which is why I was still somewhat confused as to the "community picks" title. But now the switch makes perfect sense. Thanks.

Are you one of those foolish people who has not yet gotten around to watching "Suits"? If so, that's unfortunate. But now you have no excuse: Sarah Rafferty and Rick Hoffman (who play Donna and Louis Litt, respectively, on the show) have provided viewers both new and old with a two-minute summary of everything you need to know before watching the second half of "Suits" Season 2.
It's quite entertaining.
Watching the video, you may wonder whether or not Rafferty and Hoffman are in character. The answer is probably no, but they definitely are channeling their alter-egos a little bit in terms of attitude. That just makes it funnier.
What are some of the highlights of "Suits" so far?
- It seems that neither Sarah Rafferty nor Donna thinks Louis is the best lawyer.
- It is safe to say that Hoffman knows the big twist — that Mike (Patrick J. Adams) is not actually a lawyer — even if Louis remains in the dark about the show's central secret.
- Donna is amazing. This is important to note.
- Although they don't mention it directly, it is probably important to tell a new viewer that Hardman (David Costabile) is defeated and forced out by Harvey (Gabriel Macht), Mike and Jessica (Gina Torres) at the end of the first half of season 2.
- On Rachel (Meghan Markle): "Mike really likes her. But then he dates someone else. And then he kisses her. And then he breaks it off. And then he kisses her again. And then…" Pretty much sums it up.
"Suits" returns with new episodes beginning on Thursday, Jan. 17. The first episode back, "Blind-Sided," will find Mike struggling to separate his personal feelings from a criminal case at the firm.

Elvis once said, if you can't find a partner, use a wooden chair…but from the way we see it…there's nothing wrong with busting a move in your seat.
North vs. South in the Wyoming Coaches Association All-Star Basketball Game in Casper…first quarter…north wearing the brown and off the opening tip, they went right to work…Bridget Schumacher of Cody takes the assist and lays in the first basket of the game, to put her team up 2-nothing.
The south did not take long to answer…Kyleigh Hiser of Laramie was looking for anyone, but when that didn't work, she decided to shoot for 3 and that did work…11 points for the Lady Plainsmen and the score is 3-to-2.
Things went back and forth for awhile and that was to be expected…Alissa Prosceno of Cody is open behind the double team…for the first 2 of her 13 points…north goes back up 4-to-3.
The Cody girls were doing all the work early on and there was advantages to that…Schumacher takes the assist from her team-mate and lays in 2 of her 11…that made the score 8-to-3.
…and here comes more from the Fillies…here's Prosceno taking the lob inside for another basket…the north is enjoying a 10-to-3 lead and was off to a good start.
The south would regroup and work on the inside game…Madison Forney of Rawlins did most of that work…and got hacked a few times. She led all scorers with 21 points…south still trails, 10-to-6.
Here's something rare…defense at an all star game…Cheyanne Balster of Natrona will make sure that ball stays grounded and that would stop 2 points for the time being.
But the south was still on the move…here's Ragen Wilson of Laramie leading a 2-on-1 fast break and she'll decide to finish this one herself…she added on 19 points of her own and her team now leads, 14-to-11.
There was more…let's get Breann Jackson of Wheatland in here…and the defense just got out of her way…there was no stopping her. 6 points for the Lady Bulldog and that would cap off a 13-to-1 run…the South is up 16-to-11.
Back comes the north…here's Megan Lund of Kaycee putting in her only 2-points of the game, but it was for a good cause and her team is down 16-13.
They were trying to get everyone in on the act…this is Stephany Session of Sheridan putting in the first 2 of her 9 points and it's back to a 1 point game…16-15.
But the South was not about read to give up the lead…Grace Newman of Rock Springs puts in a turn around jumper…the Lady Tiger scored 6 and the south was up 23-to-15 after the first 10 minutes.
2nd quarter…here comes the opposition…someone forgot about Schumacher and she's going to make the defense pay with 3…that's how the plan was drawn up…north only down 24-23.
The south still managed to keep them at arms length…that's Morgan Wille of Little Snake River going the other way to lay in 2 of her 12 points…that opened up some breathing room…south leads, 29-23.
The small school players were making their contributions…here's another one…Katy Pannell from Hulett…3 ball in the corner pocket. 5 points for the Lady Red Devil and the north is down 32-30.
Here comes more…here's Madison Browning of Natrona leading the charge…and she's going to take care of things herself with a great finger roll…13 points for the Filly…and this game is tied up at 34-points a piece.
Now if you've noticed on some of these highlights, some players were also trying to show off the latest style in shoe colors…Alyssa Geiser of Lovell, though was wearing the pink for a good cause…that got her 7 points…north goes back up 37-35.
The south would take the lead back, but the north would reclaim it…Kristi Ragan of Lander…swish…for 3…the Lady Tiger had 9 points and her team is back up 40-to-39.
On the other end…Forney is back in the game and she's was doing what she does best…scoring inside and there was another example…the south trails 42-to-41 at this point.
We're trying to get everyone in that we can…here's Chelsea Ullery of Kaycee…hoop and the foul…her only 3 of the game, but they'll take it…everything was knotted up at 45 going into the locker room.
3rd quarter…Here's where the tide turned for good…it took a little time though…nice drive and finish by Wilson to give the advantage back to the south…it's 51-to-47.
The north hung around for a little while…Prosceno…check out the shoes…it's got to be them and it was on that jumper…her team still trails, 55-51.
Then the south would get to work…Wilson…finds room…drives through it…scores…just another day at the office…it's now 57-51.
Let's get the get Milward Simpson award winner in here…that would be Mikayla Brower of Torrington…she eyes it, spies it and buys it…11 points were her numbers…the scoreboard says 60-to-51.
The south was on a run and it made a difference…Wille is going coast to coast on this play and she will not be denied…the lead is in double-digits…it's 62-to-51.
Most of the damage was done in this stretch…Hiser takes the pick and roll and does the rest on her own…that would polish off a 13-to-2 run and the lead is at 15 points…68-to-53.
The north was in trouble and they knew it…Ragan is ahead of the pack and scores off of the fast break…but her team never could get the deficit to less than 10 points…we're at 68-57 right now.
The south was not going to let up…Hiser…for 3…hello…the lead is at its biggest…the south was up 75-to-57 going into the final 10 minutes.
4th quarter…the comeback was too late and it was not happening, but the north tried…Browning scores 3 from the top of the key, but they're still down big…77-to-63.
We kept playing despite the final outcome…here's the only 2 points for Balster…we figured we better get her in on the act…but the north is trailing 85-to-70.
That 3rd quarter run by the south made the difference…Wilson will put the nail in the coffin with this 3-bomb…that's probably enough…as the south would cruise from there and go on to win, 88-to-74.

Terrahawks - BD or DVD?
Hey folks,
Just wanted to get a read from people who may have been able to directly compare Network's Terrahawks remaster.
I got volume 1 of the BluRay release to check the quality. Sadly, other than some richer colours, it basically didn't look much better than the VHS quality that my memory is based off.
Now that the complete sets have been released, I was wondering if it would be better to simply buy the DVD boxset? It would contain remastered material, and I think the upscaling of my BD player might honestly look better than inferior BD transfers (several episodes of which are upscaled anyway.
So, would 'boosting' a 480p resolution look better than what the BD does?
I will assume you are not joking.
I don't recall the specific episodes but there are a handful for which decent materials are lost and the Bluray had to make do with a broadcast master and this would look disappointing.
However the majority of the episodes are like chalk and cheese to the dvd's which remain among some of the most appalling released. I can't see why anyone would choose to watch them again.
Are you sure you sampled more than one episode?
Better quality from upscaling is a myth. While player or tv will upscale lower definition to fill your higher definition screen it won't do anything to improve the quality. Crap will remain crap - as the Terrahawks dvd's demonstrate.
The fact that some people try and claim their dvd when upscaled looks as good as Bluray just shows that some people don't know good quality when they see it.
The one time you could say that upscaling does improve the quality a tad is when some studios (thankfully mostly in Germany) put standard definition material onto Bluray discs. In these cases the extra capacity allows for less compression and high bitrates but SD still remains SD and won't look like HD even then.

If that's your case, you're better off getting the Blu-ray release. It looks better than a DVD upscaled on a Blu-ray player.
Though to me, I buy both formats. That way if you feel like watching or in a situation where you can only watch a DVD, you have that box set.

Hello hello! I'm posting to inform you that I'm alive and I keep being inspired every single day. On Wednesday I've finished tidying up and renovating a bit my room so I can keep my self concentrated on studying. (I'm so not a nerd, trust me.) I have some more changes to do so when it's finished I'll show you the results. Also, about the contest that my friend Vicky and I took part in, Audfaced has decided who the winners are but we're waiting for the announcement video. Finally, I wanted to show you my nails. I did them few minutes ago. It's my first attempt, next time they'll be better. Easter didn't inspire me on this I must say. I saw it on this youtube channel. Take a look, she's some great ideas!
Tomorrow it's my nameday and I'll spend the whole day with my bestfriends and our families. I'm planning to do a photoshooting so I'll keep you posted.
Happy Easter everybody!
Be happy, be strong!

A hamster is a type of small, burrowing rodent that is commonly kept as a pet.[1]
The Bludgeoning Boggart of Old London Town, a famous Boggart that prowled the streets of 19th-century London in the form of a "murderous thug," could be reduced to a hamster with a simple spell.[2]
In 1991, one of Queen Elizabeth II's pet corgis was transformed into a hamster by an unknown witch or wizard, prompting the Improper Use of Magic Office to launch an investigation.[3] Muggle authorities concluded that the Queen's dog had been stolen and replaced with a hamster as a "cruel" prank.[3]
Magic hamsters were a magical variety of hamster kept as a pet by witches and wizards.[4] On 31 October 1991, a Slytherin student lost his magic hamster, and asked Harry Potter if he had seen it.[4]

These are the flowers that I sent to my Mum, they are origami Kusudama flowers. These ones have been made using scrapbook papers but any pretty papers you have would look good. J&C Creations have lots and lots of lovely paper that you could use and pretty buttons for the centres too.
If you would like to know how to make them there are tutorials over on YouTube that explain everything. They are easy to make as each petal is made separately and then you build the flower, my neighbours six year old has been making them with me so it's something the children can do with your scraps.
I hope you all have a lovely day whether you're a mum or not.
Happy Crafting.......Rocky.

Type 1 diabetes - Definition, Symptoms, Prevention and Prepare consultation
Type 1 diabetes
Definition of type 1 diabetes
Diabetes is defined as an excess of sugar in the blood (or blood sugar) in excess of 1.26 g / l fasting or 2 g / l non-fasting. There are several types of diabetes are the two main type 1 and type 2. Only type 1 diabetes (formerly called insulin-dependent diabetes) is discussed in this chapter. Type 1 diabetes occurs mostly in children and young adults and for 170,000 people.
Risks and consequences of diabetes
Diabetes is a chronic disease more common in industrialized countries Diabetes affects about 3 million subjects (data Health Insurance In:.. Kusnik-Joinville O, Weill A, B et al Salavane Diabetes. Treaty: What changes between 2000 and 2005 Practice and Organisation of Care 2007, 38: 1-12), but experts agree that this figure is grossly underestimated because a third of diabetics are unaware of their condition. In fact, diabetes can initially remain completely silent. Complications are, however, a major public health, both medically and economically.
Causes and origins of type 1 diabetes
Pancreas, responsible for producing insulin, the hormone that regulates the sugar level in blood, is partially or totally destroyed. The onset of diabetes is most often brutal in type 1 diabetes. The cause of the failure of the pancreas is presently unknown, but the risk of developing type 1 diabetes is increased in case of family history, suggesting a genetic factor. Currently, treatment for life based on multiple daily insulin injections to compensate for the insulin deficiency and prevent kidney complications, ocular, neurological and cardiovascular diseases.
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes
The onset of symptoms is usually sudden in type 1 diabetes with a triad of symptoms: weight loss, fatigue, high thirst (polydipsia) with very frequent urination (polyuria). Weight loss is sometimes accompanied paradoxically increased food intake.
The increase is related to drink water loss and increasing the frequency and volume of urine (3-4 l / day) is related to the escape of sugar by the kidney.
Diabetes can also be the occasion of its complications called ketoacidosis with symptoms of dehydration, abnormal breathing, abdominal pain and even coma and death.
Type 1 diabetes Prevention
With what should we be confused?
The type 1 diabetes should not be confused with other types of diabetes, type 2. This (formerly called non-insulin-dependent diabetes) occurs preferentially from 40-50 years and reached between 2 and 3 million topics. Its occurrence, more and earlier, is related to lifestyle (sedentary lifestyle, eating habits, overweight ...) and family inheritance.
Diabetes insipidus is it about a leak due to a hormonal abnormality: the volume of urine up to 10 l / day.
Will it possible prevention of diabetes?
Adopt a balanced diet adapted to their lifestyle should be a priority for any diabetic. Similarly, it is essential to conduct regular physical activity, other factors reduce cardiovascular risk by controlling weight. The goal is to get a body mass index (ie your weight / your height, squared) less than 25, reducing his cholesterol and stopping smoking. Vaccination against influenza and pneumococcus is also part of the recommendations, diabetic subjects are more sensitive and vulnerable to infection.
Finally, diabetic feet should be examined regularly (skin deformations) and pampered (port shoe care pedicures ...). An annual visit to the eye doctor and dentist complete prevention.
Type 1 diabetes Prepare consultation
When consulted?
The onset of symptoms making evoke diabetes should lead to a medical consultation to check the level of sugar in the blood (controlled doctor's office by a finger prick or a laboratory blood glucose). It is a medical emergency, because in the absence of insulin, the body can not live very long (risk of ketoacidosis and death). Once diagnosed, any imbalance or infection diabetes must consult your doctor to prevent hyper-or hypoglycemia (increase or decrease in blood sugar).
What is the doctor in case of type 2 diabetes?
The doctor, in coordination with the specialist (diabetologist endocrinologist) will confirm the diagnosis by blood tests and possibly other tests to detect an origin, risk factors or complications of diabetes. The main goal of treatment is to control blood glucose (sugar) is too high due to insulin deficiency. The insulin injections (variable number of daily injections two to five injections, insulin pump ...) are the basis of this treatment The doctor tells the patient to adjust the dose (TPE) and reduce other risk factors (prevention).
How to prepare for my next visit?
Measured by the patient's blood glucose in a drop of blood (self several times a day) is essential between consultations. It allows to adapt insulin doses to achieve the goal of glycemic control set with the doctor and reduce complications. This objective will be checked by a doctor every 3 months with a blood test (glycated hemoglobin or HbA1c) and book filled with carefully monitoring the patient.

Donald Trump's campaign has made two huge moves this week. The first of these saw senior adviser Kellyanne Conway become campaign manager while the other saw Stephen Bannon of the Breitbart fame become the campaign CEO. Paul Manafort will remain campaign chair, but his role will most likely be diminished or at least altered in some way.
It goes without saying that the left-wing media have already painted this as yet another sign that Trump doesn't know what he is doing and that he is just shuffling people for the sake of it. Those same media are all but calling Bannon Satan himself. Luckily, this is something every true conservative and Republican is used to seeing.
Instead, it is important to see these moves for what they are – another step in the right direction, the direction being 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, of course.
The two new additions to the inner-most circle of the Trump campaign both bring a lot to the table and one might even say that they are complete opposites. To a certain extent this is true, but then again, both Conway and Bannon have been so diligently conservative that they will have no trouble finding a common language.
Kellyann Conway has been a senior advisor for the Trump campaign since July, but her role will now undoubtedly be even bigger. And this is great news. Conway has been doing great things for the Republican Party since the 1990s when she first caught the attention of the general public by going on national TV as part of an unofficial conservative team asking for Bill Clinton's impeachment.
She has also been running her polling company since 1995, finding out what the American people think and how this could be used to help GOP presidential nominees. However, her political career goes back even further.
Namely, in the 1980s, she worked for Ronald Reagan's pollster Dick Wirthlin and she very early discovered her special talent – the gender voting gap. Namely, female votes have traditionally been the GOP's Achilles' heel. Over the next three decades, Conway would become the country's leading expert in female voters and her initial role on Trump's team has been to help him win over this demographic.
Now, she will have much more on her plate, but she will definitely be able to take care of it. She has been a winner her entire life and we are absolutely certain that she will keep on winning as Trump's campaign manager.
Stephen Bannon is probably more of a household name for most conservatives. He made Breitbart what it is – a beacon of common sense in a world of media that couldn't be any more biased. Bannon made it his mission to tell the American people the truth and to make sure we are not all brainwashed by the plethora of liberal voices.
Bannon has also been a very vocal critic of the Obama-Clinton administration and he has unearthed some truly horrifying facts about the Clintons in particular, their ties to all kinds of interest groups and worse. Bannon has never been a fan of the GOP elites and he has supported Trump fervently for quite some time now, giving balance to media reports that painted Trump as a villain. They still do that, by the way.
Bannon's appointment as the CEO of Trump's campaign makes great sense and his media-savvy is just what this campaign needs. He will also make sure Trump is heard and not toned down. Bannon understands truth and he knows that the American people want the truth.
Together, however, Bannon and Conway will truly become the Dream Team. Conway, with her veteran political knowledge and Bannon as a breath of fresh air will turn Trump's campaign into an unstoppable force.
With Conway handling the numbers and the technical aspects and with Bannon handling the media, it is only a matter of time before we see Trump take over the polls again.

© 1987, Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 390 Ashton Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94112
You skip southward lightly in reduced gravity; red dust puffs upward where the boots of your pressurized body suit touch the ground. A plastic cup of icy cola, grasped firmly in your glove, boils violently in the thin poisonous air. The early-morning sky is pink all around, mutedly illuminated by a small-looking Sun, rising to your left. You stop at what seems to be the edge of the world: a stomach-dropping cliff falls away to an arid floor miles below you. Far off to the south, dimly visible through a morning haze of ice crystals, is another mammoth wall. The chasm extends out of sight toward the rising Sun. To your right, a distant mountain top rises impossibly high; a wisp of white carbon dioxide ice condenses downwind from its summit. Another morning dawns on Mars.
To make matters just a bit more complicated, Mars's orbit is slightly eccentric, which means that it is not at the same distance from us at every opposition — it can be as far away as 101 million kilometers (63 million miles) and as close as 56 million kilometers (35 million miles) — quite a range!
The closest close approaches — called favorable oppositions — come every 15 to 17 years on average. The last favorable opposition was in 1971 (how many of your students had even been born then?), but the 1988 one will be one of the best in the 20th century. On September 22, Mars will be only 58.6 million kilometers (36 4 million miles) from Earth, only about 2.9 million kilometers farther than the record closest approach. Mars should be very easily visible in the night sky — a brilliant crimson point of light, beckoning to us as it has for centuries.

To begin with, the planet's atmosphere and weather are very hostile — and in quite different ways from the wet, stormy hazards Earth's climate poses. The most dangerous thing about the atmosphere of Mars (to humans) is that it's very thin. As measured by the weather stations on the U.S. Viking probe landers, Mars's pressure varied between .006 and .015 of Earth's. Such a near-vacuum would have a peculiar effect on liquid water: if the temperature is even just a little above freezing, a pool of water — or the water in a human's bloodstream — would quickly come to a boil.
The boiling point of water (or any other liquid) depends in large part on the weight of atmosphere pushing down on it. The higher the pressure, the harder water has to "work'' (the higher its temperature has to be) in order for it to boil. That's how pressure-cookers work: by sealing a pot of water under high pressure, the water reaches a higher temperature before it boils, and potatoes can cook faster. Mars can be thought of as a pressure cooker in runaway reverse; the boiling point of water on Mars is very close to the freezing point, and a glass of water at room temperature would bubble away vigorously and quickly.
Even if protected by a pressure suit, a tourist on Mars would have to contend with other strange inconveniences. Imagine our tourist trying to boil water over a campfire. First, she'd find no liquid water — it's all either frozen solid or a very thin vapor in the air. Second, she'd find no fuel for her campfire: no trees, no twigs, no organic material of any kind. Most frustratingly, though — even if she brought her own water and her own newspapers to light with matches — nothing would burn! Mars's air contains virtually no oxygen at all, and oxygen is necessary for fires. (Of course, this means that our tourist would need to have oxygen tanks in order even to breathe!) The atmosphere of Mars is about 95% carbon dioxide; oxygen makes up only about 1/10th of 1%. (Earth's air is roughly 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen.)
Even a suitably protected and supplied tourist would find Mars's weather to be a little tough. Martian temperatures are brutally cold, as a rule. In their six years of operation on the surface from 1976 to 1982, the two Viking landers seldom recorded any temperature higher than about minus 30 degrees Celsius (20 degrees below zero Fahrenheit). While it never rains on Mars, there are storms: but they are sand storms. Periodically (about every Martian year or so), the entire planet is choked by global, sandblasting dust storms that shroud its entire surface. Even when no sandstorm is in progress, there is enough red Martian dust in the air to turn the sky pink in the daytime.
The most impressive mountain in the Tharsis region is called Olympus Mons ("Mount Olympus''). This mammoth cone is about 500 kilometers (300 miles) across at its base — on Earth, it would cover Arizona or New York State — and the 80-kilometer-wide crater (or "caldera,'' as the depressions at volcano tops are called) at its summit is 25 kilometers (15 miles) above the surrounding plain. To put its height in perspective, note that the top of Mt. Everest is only about 9 kilometers above sea level.
The Valles Marineris canyons were probably formed by a stretching of Mars's crust (akin to the geologic forces that pulled Earth's continents apart from one another) long ago, not by running water which carves the canyons we're used to on Earth.
As we've seen, liquid water cannot exist in large amounts on Mars now — the atmospheric pressure is just too low—but the now-arid scars of ancient rivers and floods show clearly that water could (and did) flow on the red planet's surface sometime in the past. No one is sure Just how long ago that was—in fact, it may have happened more than just once—but it is clear that Mars used to be a very different place from what it is now. It appears that in the past the air was thick enough, and the temperatures warm enough to sustain pools, rivers, rain, and floods.
(We should emphasize that the dry river channels on Mars are not the "canals'' of science fiction. Such canals — artificial waterways — apparently never existed on Mars.)
Most of the evidence concerning the question of life on Mars comes from a battery of ingenious experiments that were carried out by the Viking automated lander craft on Mars in 1976 (and for a few years thereafter). These experiments included cameras (which continually monitored the surface near them for large scale organisms), three micro-biology experiments (which looked for changes that microbes would cause in soil samples brought aboard), and one that looked for organic molecules that might have been left in the soil by life long ago, even if Mars is lifeless now (Earth's soil is permeated by such chemical "droppings'' of life). None of the experiments produced results that conclusively showed life to be on Mars — or ever to have been there.
Of course, the Viking landers could only explore their immediate environment — Lander 1 in Chryse Planitia ("the plains of gold'') at latitude 22 degrees North and Lander 2 on the plains called Utopia at latitude 48 degrees North. Scientists would like to explore many other parts of the red planet before coming to any final conclusions about the presence or history of life on Mars.

BUILD UP TO WWIII - Are Nukes Being Used In Ukraine?
A video reportedly shows a nuclear weapon detonating in Ukraine amid the ongoing fighting in the country. The video, which was shot on a cell phone, shows a mushroom cloud emerging from the explosion and the resulting shockwave. The footage is seemingly consistent with a smaller tactical nuke designed for use on a battlefield in a military situation, as opposed to much larger strategic nukes used to level cities. The video was filmed by a man inside his house, and the shockwave from the blast broke the window he was filming out of. Russian media reports the epicenter of the explosion was in the Kuibyshev district of Donetsk, Ukraine, the site of the most intense fighting between rebels who want Eastern Ukraine to join Russia and the Western-backed Ukrainian government. The media also said the explosion could be seen and felt for "tens of kilometers." An image from a NATO satellite revealed a mushroom cloud linked to the explosion, according to Zero Hedge. We pointed out the possibility of tactical nukes being deployed in Ukraine back in March. Ukraine has been in turmoil since at least Nov. 2013 when a series of protests funded by billionaire activist George Soros led to the overthrow of the country's elected leaders and the installation of politicians handpicked by the U.S. State Department. Soros became actively involved in the politics of Eastern Europe and Central Asia after the collapse of the Soviet Union, using multiple non-government organizations with ties to the CIA to spark color revolutions in former Soviet countries. "Billionaire investor/activist George Soros has a giant footprint in Ukraine," wrote journalist William F. Jasper. "Similar to his operations in dozens of other nations, he has, over the past couple of decades, poured tens of millions of dollars into Ukrainian non-governmental organizations (NGOs), ostensibly to assist them in transforming their country into a more 'open' and 'democratic' society." revolutions of 1989 funded a lot of dissident activities, civil society groups in eastern Europe and Poland, the Czech Republic. Are you doing similar things in Ukraine?" Zakaria asked Soros. explosion fire fireball russia news media "eastern europe" ukraine evidence footage video "video camera" huge crazy big shock aftershock tactical war games game facts truth 2015 "george soros" elite millionaire funding billionaire fight fighting battle history historic crisis collapse "united states" usa america germany battlefield film europe future humanity banking bank "elite nwo agenda" alex jones infowars bilderberg 2015 bohemian grove end game rothschild rothchilds illuminati prediction false flag attack ww3 world war 3 unrest prepper demcad prepare jsnip4 daboo7 coast to coast am gerald celente jim rogers marc faber lindsey williams "Well, I set up a foundation in Ukraine before Ukraine became independent of Russia, and the foundation has been functioning ever since and played an important part in events now," Soros responded. As leaders from France, Cyprus, Germany, US, Russia, and Ukraine drop tape-bombs of turmoil at one another, the following somewhat stunning clip suggests on the ground in Eastern Europe, other - far bigger - bombs are being lobbed... The somewhat mushroom-cloud-like explosion in Donetsk... On the night of Monday, February 9, all Shakhtar scared terrible roar. Residents felt the shock wave shook their homes. As it turned out, was the epicenter of the explosion in the Kuibyshev region, near Donetsk state factory of chemical products. But the roar and the glow was so strong that they had heard and seen are tens of kilometers away Textilschik residents of the neighborhood. - In Donetsk was dealt a powerful blow, - reported in the headquarters of the militia. - Perhaps the use of "Tochka-U" or a set of "Luna-M". The sky lit up with the brightest flash and downs over the place of the munition climbed a huge mushroom of acrid smoke. British Defence Secretary Michael Fallon said on Friday that supplying weapons to Ukraine, an option under consideration in Washington, would escalate the ongoing conflict. French President Francoise Hollande and German Chancellor Angela Merkel flew to Moscow on Friday to discuss the escalating crisis in Ukraine, reportedly without informingthe US Secretary of State John Kerry, who is currently in Ukraine discussing Kiev's plea for weapons. Germany's rejection of supplying weapons to Ukrainian forces fighting pro-Russian rebels may heighten the domestic pressure on a reluctant U.S. President Barack Obama to deliver the arms.

Not just when you met, but when you realized you were friends. I don't remember that moment for all my friends, but I know when it happened with Mari.
Mari is a neighbor I met when her husband was deported in October 2009. Since then, we have spent a lot of time working out her budget, figuring out childcare and praying together. This time has led to a mutual respect.

Sen. Lieu to Introduce Bill Banning State From Helping Feds Spy on Citizens
2014-01-06 · By Editor
In response to repeated federal admissions of widespread spying on innocent American citizens, Sen. Ted Lieu will introduce a sweeping bill that would ban state agencies, officials and corporations that provide services to the state from supporting or assisting the federal government to spy or collect certain data on Californians.
"The National Security Agency's massive level of spying and indiscriminate collecting of phone and electronic data on all Americans, including more than 38 million Californians, is a direct threat to our liberty and freedom," Lieu, D-Torrance, said about his planned introduction on Monday, the first day of the 2014 session.
Records show the director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, Jr., initially lied to Congress and denied the existence of NSA's blanket phone surveillance of all Americans. Multiple media reports regarding NSA activities have now caused Clapper to admit he lied and that the NSA has, in fact, been collecting phone information on all 317 million Americans for years. A federal judge recently declared the NSA's blanket phone monitoring program to be unconstitutional, calling the dragnet 'near Orwellian.'
"I agree with the NSA that the world is a dangerous place," Lieu said. "That is why our founders enacted the Bill of Rights. They understood the grave dangers of an out-of-control federal government."
Lieu noted that the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the following: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated."
"All 317 million Americans cannot reasonably be considered to be suspicious simply for making or receiving telephone calls," Lieu said. "The NSA's blanket seizure of the telephone records of all Americans is therefore an 'unreasonable seizure' by any definition of the term under the Fourth Amendment."
Recent media articles also state the NSA's surveillance program on Americans extends to not just phone records, but also all types of electronic data, including emails, text messages and information stored on Americans' smart phones.
To collect data on Californians, the NSA sometimes relies upon services provided by the state and/or private entities that provide services on behalf of the state. Lieu's bill would ban state agencies, officials, and corporations providing services to the state from giving any material support, participation or assistance to any federal agency to collect electronic or metadata of any person, unless there has been a warrant issued that specifically describes the person, place and thing to be searched or seized.
"State-funded public resources should not be going toward aiding the NSA or any other federal agency from indiscriminate spying on its own citizens and gathering electronic or metadata that violates the Fourth Amendment," Lieu said.
Lieu's bill follows successful passage last year of a bipartisan resolution urging Congress to reconsider its vote for the NSA to stop its unconstitutional practices. For more, click on this link: Senate Resolution 16 – National Security Administration
"Let's be clear: when the government deliberately violates the Constitution on a mass basis, it poses a clear and present danger to our liberties. The last time the federal government massively violated the US Constitution, over 100,000 innocent Americans were rounded up and interned," Lieu said.
The exact number of Lieu's NSA bill won't be known before sometime Monday morning. If approved as drafted, it would take effect immediately.

Ted W. Lieu chairs the Senate Business, Professions and Economic Development Committee and represents the more than 1.3 million residents of Senate District 28, which includes the cities of Beverly Hills, Carson, El Segundo, Hermosa Beach, Lomita, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Torrance, West Hollywood and the Palos Verdes Peninsula as well as portions of Long Beach and Los Angeles including, Beverly Glen, Brentwood, Cheviot Hills, Harbor City, Hollywood Hills, Marina del Rey, Mar Vista, Pacific Palisades, Playa del Rey, San Pedro, Venice, Westwood and Wilmington.

Pampers Baby DryReviewing: Pampers Baby Dry | Rating:
I was so happy with the Pampers Swaddlers diapers that when my son grew too large for them I wanted to stay with the Pampers brand. I moved into the Baby Dry line. What a difference, I was completely dissapointed in these diapers. They didn't fit well at all, it seemed to me that the tabs were entirely too short. The leak protection was also inferior to the Swaddlers. It kept my little boy anthing BUT dry!
If it is time for you to get into the next size or 'stage' of diapers I would highly recommend you skip the Baby Dry series altogether and put your little one into Cruisers - I was very happy with these (see my review on those).
I thought that Pampers had failed me after I had so much success with them before, luckily it was just one bad series and they are back in my favor.

|Differs from Aulacopygus and Hyboclypus in having the anterior and posterior genital plates in contact and displacing ocular plates II and IV outwards. Distinguished from Galeropygus by having a more elongate disc and fewer complementary plates in the disc. Distinguished from Pygopyrina by having complementary plates separating the pairs of genital plates.
Vadet (2000) described a specimen from the Bathonian of France under the name Pyrinodia guerangeri which has an apical disc without complemental plates. As Cotteau\'s species is clearly shown with complemental plates the synonymy of these two specimens is questionable. Until Cotteau\'s type specimen is redescribed and its apical disc plating confirmed it seems prudent to maintain Pyrinodia as discrete from Pygopyrina.
