Gallery: How to Prepare for Hurricane Sandy
We New Yorkers are known to be brave, but sometimes the smart thing to do is to just abandon ship. As you can see from this evacuation map of the city, many areas (in white) are going to be okay in terms of flooding, but to be on the safe side, carefully examine the entire map here or call 311 to get the scoop on whether it's safe for you to stay in your home during the storm. If you live above the 10th floor in an apartment building, you should also plan to stay with family or friends.

My new thing this year when people invite us to dinner, is to offer to bring an appetizer. I normally bring dessert. While I love dessert and have gotten really good at making tarts, pavolas, cakes, puddings, panna cotta (you get the picture), I felt we could all lay off of the sweets; at least for a little while.
We were invited to a post holiday dinner last week and I brought this hot crab dip. I have been dying to eat crab since we got back from Boston (I think that lobster roll got my taste-buds going for seafood) and decided to take advantage of what is suppose to be the best crab season in the Bay Area in over 4 years. Now, I thought about going all low-fat and non-fat on this recipe, but when I started looking at the ingredients and what they were actually bringing to the recipe, I changed my mind. I am a pretty good label reader and have this thing, if I don't know what the first 5 ingredients are in a product, then I am not putting it into our mouths or bodies. Therefore, I went full-fat with my ingredients; really there is only about an additional 3 or 4 calories per serving, so why mess with deliciousness. I served this with gluten free crackers but you can also serve with sliced and toasted baguettes.
What is your favorite seafood appetizer?
Recipe: Hot Spicy Crab Dip
8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons mayo
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce, more or less, depending on how spicy you like it
1 small meyer lemon – zest & juice
1/4 pound fresh crab
1/2 cup peppercorn romano cheese, very fine grate, I used a microplane
Heat oven to 425. In a mixer combine the cream cheese, sour cream and mayo; beat on low speed until very smooth, about 10 minutes. Add the sriracha sauce, lemon zest and juice, beat until mixed, about 3 minutes. Add the crab and cheese, gently mix for about 1 minute until just combined. Put into an oven proof baking ramekin. Bake until bubbly, about 10 – 15 minutes, depending on the depth of your ramekins. Serve. Eat.

CES 2011: Powerball Gamer First Look
Comments are Closed
Displaying 1–13 of 13
I found that the Powerball is extremely useful to gamers because it doesn't just workout your wrists, it works out your whole hand including your fingers!!! If you try one out your for sure notice this obvious fact.. and I'm pretty sure most gamers use there fingers, for pc or console games... unless you have some crazy mind powers you wanna share..?

I bought one of these a while back to train for rock climbing. I never thought of its application for gamers. Hey, any exercise is good I guess.

I have an older one that i use when i'm at the keyboard for along time, Gaming and work. it seems to help with the carpal tunnel.

I will definitely buy one of these, but not for gaming. I know that when i play games like DBZ or DMC my hands get quite a workout and all too often i have to take breaks because they just hurt to much but this will really come in handy with my job. I work at fedex and tendinitis is a serious problem there. My wrists kill every day when i come home. So if this is for real and will help resolve this i will buy it but like i said not for gaming.

Ouch! haha tough comments thats ok. the point of using the Powerball to better improve your game is to increase endurance and dexterity in the hands and fingers. We know most people dont have an issue with strength, but the endurance part and having hands and wrists cramp up can become an issue. thats where the Powerball comes into play!

Just thought I'd point out that there is no such thing as centrifugal force. It's an incorrect term for centripetal force.

What a waste of time and money. If for one moment, you actually think your ever going to improve playing video games by purchasing this item, then trust me, your wiser to save all the coin for the mental therapy sessions that you obviously require.

What does wrist strength have to do with gaming? Unless you're to weak to pick up anything the weight of a ps3/360 control then you just need to goto the gym or physical therapy.

Looks pretty much the same as most powerball iterations.

You know what works the same playing games on the PC. Its a shocker, I know, to some people.

Nokia and IBM have reached an agreement that will see Notes appearing on certain Nokia handsets, a move that will give the Finnish handset giant a boost in its battle with Research in Motion's BlackBerry.
At the moment, Nokia's S60 3rd Edition devices can connect to corporate email accounts via Lotus Domino Server add-on feature Notes Traveler, without any additional costs, the companies said.
Users will get real time access to email, calendar, address book, journal and to-do list data from December.
The integration is something Notes users have been waiting for, according to IBM.
"We see a wide distribution of Nokia devices within our customer base. I was at a user function in Germany about ten days ago and gave a preview of this announcement to a set of our customers, and got spontaneous applause," said Kevin Cavanaugh, vice president of IBM Lotus Software.
Nokia dropped its own enterprise email software in September, and instead decided to focus on working with the large email vendors.
"This is a reinforcement of that strategy. We believe that the IT infrastructure in the corporate premises will be deployed, developed and sold by the experts in that field, meaning companies like IBM and Microsoft," said Ilari Nurmi, vice president, E series sales at Nokia.
This announcement also puts functionality for Notes users on par with Exchange users, according to Nurmi, and is the most important piece that Nokia has been missing.
To activate the new functionality, a client has to be installed on each phone. That can be done over-the-air using Notes Traveler, according to a spokesman at Nokia.
More than 40 Nokia phones will be compatible with Traveler, according to Nurmi.
Nokia can emerge as a stronger force in the enterprise mobile email space as a result of it deciding to drop its own software, because it is now easier for the large vendors in the space to work with Nokia, said Leif-Olof Wallin, research vice president at Gartner. Nokia first got Microsoft on board, and now it has moved on to the number two vendor.
Lotus Notes Traveler, which already supports Windows Mobile devices, provides the synchronisation mechanism out to the mobile device. It will either run on the Domino Server that is already in place or on a server next to it, and enterprises are entitled to it when they purchase their Domino Server, according to Cavanaugh.
"We have seen people up and running in 30 minutes, with mobile devices attached," said Cavanaugh.
In the mobile enterprise space IBM is currently seeing customers going beyond doing just mobile email and getting mobile services to a higher percentage of employees. Those employees are also demanding that they can use the mobile phone of their choice, according to Cavanaugh.

I've had my Klipsch X10 for a long time now and unfortunately as much as I love the sound I absolutely hate the wires. The jack broke once and I soldered a different one, which worked fine for a few months but now it's breaking up again. Also, I hate how stiff the wire became after some time.
Klipsch told me to go f** myself and that they don't repair wires. So my question is: what in your opinion should I do? I want to cut the wires a couple of inches from the earpieces and solder them to another wire set. As far as I can see there's no such thing as replacement wires on the internet, so I want to buy earphones just for the wire. What earphones available in the UK are in your opinion cheap and have a good, unbreakable wire with them?

Hugh Hefner's Wednesday tweet about publishing the entire Playboy canon, nudes and all, on Apple's App Store was, in fact, bogus.
The real plan is for Playboy to develop an online subscription service, according to Forbes.com.
A spokesman told Jeff Bercovici the subscription "will give users access to every issue of Playboy both past and present.The service will be iPad compatible and will utilize iPad functions ... We also have plans to release a non-nude version of a Playboy-branded iPad app in the coming months that adheres to all of Apple's policies and guidelines."
Nothing even remotely appearing like pornography will penetrate the rules and guidelines that Apple has in place.
So that tweet? Mere titilation.
Not quite the same, huh?

Wenger heaps praise on Arsenal players after West Ham rout
PUBLISHED: 07:33 24 January 2013 | UPDATED: 07:33 24 January 2013
PA Archive/Press Association Images
Manager Arsene Wenger felt Arsenal finally delivered the required response after they blew West Ham away with four goals in the space of 10 minutes at the start of the second half to run out 5-1 winners at Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners had slumped to successive defeats against Manchester City and Chelsea to leave them facing an uphill battle to regain a place in the top four.
Wenger knew there was no more margin for error, but must have feared another night of frustration after falling behind in tonight's rearranged Boxing Day fixture to a fine strike from Jack Collison.
However, Lukas Podolski crashed in a 25-yard effort to equalise before the break.
Olivier Giroud then scored his first goal in six games to put the hosts in front just after the restart, before German forward Podolski tore the Irons apart, charging down the left to set up Santi Cazorla, Theo Walcott and Giroud again as Arsenal romped out of sight before the hour.
West Ham had to play the closing stages with 10 men after what looked a serious injury to substitute Daniel Potts, who was carried off on a stretcher following a serious head injury and kept in hospital overnight for observation.
"We got a good response," said Wenger.
"I could not predict that we would score five goals, but what was vital for us was to equalise before half-time and then see if West Ham could maintain their control of us.
"In the second half from the start on we created chance after chance and played at a very high pace. From there on it was great movement, great quality in our final balls and in our combination play.
"Until Potts got injured of course, after that it was the end of the game because we played 11 against 10 and it was [already] 5-1."

The other day, I was grocery shopping. Nothing new, something we all do. But then, as I was perusing the pet aisle, I looked up to see a package of hotdogs lying toward the back of the shelf. Not pet food hot dogs, people food hot dogs. I picked them up and took them to the nearest store employee. She thanked me and took the package.
A once euphoric young boy stands in solitude, feeling inferior to those who ridicule him persistently. He yearns for someone, somewhere, to be his friend and to understand the sorrow he's undergoing.
He is the boy with the solemn look on his face that many people continue to taunt carelessly. His fears consume him. They are the parasite, and he is their prey.
He might just be the boy sitting in front of you in your math class; he may be the boy isolated at lunch. He is one of the many victims of bullying found everywhere today.

The pecans are clean as a whistle this year but the chestnuts are a bust. In the first half of the 20th century, the American chestnut tree,
The summer before your senior year is supposed to be one of the most memorable times of your life. You spend as much time as possible with all of the people you've grown to know and love, knowing that in one short year you will all go your separate ways. It's a time where you do anything and everything that you can simply to be doing something. This is the time of your life that you make memories that will last for the rest of your life.
My mother-in-law, the strongest woman I know, left this Earth on Saturday, Sept. 8.
How do you tell your wife that everything is going to be OK when you can only imagine how her insides are being ripped open?
How do you explain to your 5-year-old that his Grandma, the woman who bathed him in her sink as a baby and helped him find Easter eggs in her front yard as a toddler, is gone?
How do you allow yourself to grieve while trying to hold it together for everyone else who needs you to be the rock, that person to lean on?
"Newly transplanted trees must remain hydrated in order for the natural process of root system regeneration to begin," writes Roger Harris, associate professor of horticulture at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. This is something that has been repeated countless time this summer by many in the green industry, yet, I fear, some homeowners may have turned a deaf ear.

Posted July 5, 2013 Alastair Macaulay asks whither the American ballerina. The questions pile up. Does the 21st century even need ballerinas? America is one of many Western societies where women fight for equality in the workplace and can no longer expect men to stand when they enter a room; same-sex marriages are now institutionalized. Ballet had a beginning; it may have an end. In particular, the practice of dancing on point may one day seem as bizarre as the bygone Chinese practicing of binding women's feet. Do we still need an art form whose stage worlds are almost solely heterosexual and whose principal women are shown not as workers but as divinities? Share this post Link to post

Thirty years ago I talked to Yuri Grigorovich, who had been director of the Bolshoi Ballet for three decades as well as being its chief choreographer – such works as Spartacus (1968), Ivan the Terrible (1975) and The Golden Age (1982) were massive declarations about his massive ensemble – and I asked him about the nature of the company and how he remained its master.

Thats all they knew. Its a resort town, a clubbing town, its very shallow culturally. And its very difficult to raise money there. But I knew what I was getting into.

Design by Howard Payne's McIntosh selected for 2012-13 ASC Championship T-shirts
RICHARDSON, Texas - Artwork created by Howard Payne University freshman tennis student-athlete Marshal McIntosh will be used on all American Southwest Conference championship T-shirts for the 2012-13 academic year, the league office announced on Thursday (Oct. 11) after a vote of the conference Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.
McIntosh won the conference's seventh annual ASC Championship T-shirt Design Challenge, which is open to all students of member institutions.
It is the second time the winning design has come from Howard Payne, as communications major Jenny Janda won the inaugural competition back in 2006-07. McIntosh, a San Saba, Texas, native, is the first freshman to win the contest.
McIntosh's design features the official conference logo and its red, white and blue color scheme, but with the word "CHAMPIONS" in the middle where "ASC" would normally go. The "ASC" letters instead sit on the top of the conference logo, with "2012" and "2013" to each side. In the background are light blue, three-dimensional shapes scattered throughout.
"I wanted to keep the ASC logo but really emphasize the word 'Champions' because it would be such an honor to win a championship in our conference," McIntosh said. "As for the background, I don't really have a word to describe it. I just wanted something neat with different shapes. It kind of turned out to look like diamonds."
The design will be displayed large on the front of white, short-sleeved T-shirts that all conference champions will receive immediately following their victories. Individual sport logos will appear on a smaller scale in blue on the back of the T-shirt, just below the collar.
McIntosh plans on playing tennis for four years for head coach Sally Brown and receiving his bachelor's degree in public and media communications with a minor in either marketing or Christian studies in May of 2016. McIntosh wants to eventually work in marketing, specifically for churches.
The first conference championship event of 2012-13 will be cross country on Oct. 27 in Clinton, Miss.

Western grad starter for top university team
Kaylee Puailoa doesn't remember belting her first home run at the University of Georgia, and it's a direct result of advice she received years ago.
And though that advice has ultimately stolen the memory of her two-run shot on March 3, it has also fostered her rise as one of the best newcomers in the game.
"All my travel ball coaches told me to have a short memory," she recalled. "Whether you make an out or hit a home run, figure out what's next."
Puailoa blossomed into a Division I talent early, while playing travel ball in grade school for the Lakewood Ladies.
There, she set the precedent for a brilliant four-year career at Western High.
"I'm blessed to have parents who put me on travel teams where I was playing against girls who fought for spots," she said. "Travel ball is really where it's at. It's where you can find and build relationships."
In 2010, Puailoa garnered the Orange League's Most Valuable Player award after a terrific sophomore season in which she hit .560 (42 for 75) with 13 home runs and 48 runs batted in.
She also struck out 107 hitters in 74 innings pitched.
"I grew up with a real supportive family that always said, 'No matter how good you get, somebody is always going to be better,'" she said. "That's why I wanted to make the most of my opportunities."
Last summer, Puailoa was one of eight high school softball players to enroll after graduation at Georgia – a program with two trips to the NCAA Women's College World Series since 2009.
"The upperclassmen don't act like they're better than the rest of us," she said. "They all know we're on the same team, so they've taken all the freshmen in as sisters.
"It's great to know these girls aren't here to bring us down; that we're a team."
In January, USA Today pegged the Bulldogs (45-17 overall in 2012) as the ninth-best team in the country.
"Growing up in travel ball, I've been on top teams before, and it was great," Puailoa said. "Other teams throw their best at you, so you always have to be on your toes.
"It doesn't matter who you play, it's how you play."
On Feb. 8, in a season-opening loss to Elon University of North Carolina, the 5-foot-8-inch lefty nabbed the start in the right field, and went 0 for 3 in her college debut.
"(The opener) was definitely nerve-racking," she said. "Just being in the outfield and standing at the plate I thought, 'Whatever happens, I'm blessed to be here.'"
Since then, Puailoa has split starts in right field and at first base. Through the weekend, she'd started 37 of 40 games.
"It's the same game, just a little faster," she said. "It's great to be around people who know and love the game – coaches and girls who know what they're doing.
"I'm just trying to mimic them all."
At press time, Puailoa was hitting .383 (third on the team) with a team-high 13 home runs and 33 RBIs.
"I still can't believe I'm really here," she said. "It's not over, though. I'm going to keep fighting because we have games to win.
"But it's the greatest feeling to know that I've made it this far."

Awesome! :)Thanks for posting these, I had to pre-order as I was sick :(
Wish I lived near one of those events, my line was pretty lackluster. Still glad to have my copy!
I did not have a line at all ^^Thanks for sharing ;)
That balloon murloc is really cool. :)
Wish I lived near one of those places where they had pretty large crowds. Midnight sales in Istanbul was pretty dumb and I am so frustrated that they have ran out of collector's edition copies very quick :(
The Gamestop in Killeen, TX had about 50 people. I of course was dead last because i was playing wow until 11:30 >< It took me about 1.5hrs waiting to get the game. I was on until 5am, I just couldn't stay up any longer than that lol.edit: the people in my line gave the appearance it was the first public event they had participated in since they started playing wow, haha...
Well I waited outside about 50 min before they opened the door here at Kupolen in Borlänge, Sweden. Were around 50 ppl before me in line. When they opened roughly 200 people were waiting, at least what I could hear.Heard lots of stories, people haveing LANs, not going to school or work and all that stuff =)While I stood in that line I realized I was one of maybe 5 ppl that I could see (from over 100+ people near me) that were over 20 years old. I need to grow up, but it can wait a cupple of years =)
I want mad skills to make one of those balloon murlocs >.>
Are those pictures INSIDE the post? Well that's new! :DInteresting pictures, haha at this one. :P Looks like you had fun!
I overheard a guy who was #34-ish in line at Anaheim say that a couple of guys !@#$ed all over the Frozen Throne sculpture, and after some semi-failed attempts at cleaning it up, people still were getting their pictures taken on it.I don't know how true that was. Ew. :s
i was by the sf one but didnt have a car to drive to it since bart doesnt run after midnight or i would of gone. i love going to midnight releases they are sooooo much fun! i've only mostly been to midnight movie releases like for star wars 3 (witch came out on bday) and like 5 others. they are a lot of fun!
So that's where all the collector's editions went..holy crap!I lined up outside the Future Shop closest to me (I love just north of Toronto, Ontario - that's Canada for the uninformed). I thought I was gonna be crazy, but I went at 9PM (when they closed normal hours). Turns out there was one pair of people there who were hanging around since 8 - and another group shortly after us. From there we started getting some others around 10 and on...I think we had about 60-70 total, didn't count.First guy in line got a 100$ gift card; I was second, but he gave me a 20 since we were kinda in the line at the same time..so almost a quarter of my collectors was paid for..sweet!We got the WoW "!" hat with our purchase, and I was out of the store at 12:15...not too shabby.We only had 24 collectors editions in that store though...so..many people got screwed...too bad for them though, shoulda came earlier like me!
Nice lines! Wish I was there to pick up mah collecter's edition.
They didn't even do a midnight release where in Macon, GA. I was pretty bummed about it I had to wait for stores to open up around 9am to get my copy. The sad part about it is that I had my copy paid for about 2 months ago and they said that they were going to do the midnight release
Well i live in Clarksville GA and it was so funny...I went to the GameStop in gainsville and i was like 1/10 there plus they had 30 collecter's edition so i bought 3...then as soon as i got out of the store there was like every geek and nerd in NorthEast GA lined up...So i was realy lucky...Go in to store at 12:00am and leave at 12:05am with 3 collecter's edition so XD
We had a quite nice event here in Stockholm/Sweden at a store called Webhallen.After some issues with getting the line correct (which was like 600-1000 people, my approximations) we started preparing (with coffee and candy!) for the actual opening-event. There was two lines, one for guys who had costumes and one for us ordinary people who just wanted the game asap.Here's a video recorded by the staff, which might give a glimpse on how the event did look like:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Fq2kdGgVTwI think I was out from the store around 12:46am local time, with my brand new collectors edition, signed and in my hand.

S&P Picks and Pans: Apple, EMC, Viacom, CNOOC, Polo RL
Apple Inc. (AAPL)
Downgrades to 4 STARS (buy) from 5 STARS (strong buy)
Analyst: Scott Kessler
The downgrade is based on valuation. We still think Apple will continue to gain marketshare in desktops and notebooks, and benefit from adoption and usage of iPods and iTunes. We are also optimistic about the launch of the iPhone, which we expect next month. In addition, based on revised peer analysis, we are raising our 12-month target price to $135 from $125. We are expecting significant enthusiasm leading up to next month's week-long Worldwide Developers conference and the iPhone's debut. However, with the stock up 38% year to date and expectations notably elevated, we have risk/reward-related concerns.
EMC Corp. (EMC)
Downgrades to 3 STARS (hold) from 4 STARS (buy)
Analyst: J. Hingorani
We think slow enterprise spending is affecting most technology companies including EMC, despite its leadership position. Our hold opinion is also based on valuation; EMC shares are trading at 24.5 times our 2007 EPS estimate of 69 cents, slightly above the average for the S&P 500 Computer Storage and Peripherals subindustry group. We are keeping our 12-month target price of $17, but we are downgrading our opinion based on risks we see and slowing demand. We see added volatility from the VMWare IPO to EMC shareholders, which we do not think will materially affect EMC's balance sheet.
Polo Ralph Lauren (RL)
Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: M. Driscoll, CFA
The company reports March-quarter EPS of 68 cents, vs. 58 cents one year earlier, finishing fiscal 2007 (Mar.) at $3.73 vs. $2.87, in line with our estimate. For fiscal 2008, we see further investment in the company's multiple growth vehicles, including retail, Rugby, international expansion, and leather goods, as well as new lifestyle brand American Living, which will offer products in 50 categories exclusively at JC Penney (JCP). A $240 million capital spending budget will support another 24 stores and a distribution center. We are reducing our fiscal 2008 EPS estimate to $3.85 from $4.15 to reflect non-cash amortization charges related to recent acquisitions.
Viacom (VIA.B)
Maintains 3 STARS (hold) on Cl. B shares
Analyst: T. Amobi, CPA, CFA
Having spent $2.7 billion under an existing $3 billion stock buyback program set January, 2006, Viacom sets a new $4 billion authorization, though it indicates no timeframe for the new program. While the move seems to us consistent with capital allocation goals set with the company's 2006 operational separation, we view the current pace of share buybacks as somewhat slower than expected. Separately, an unconfirmed Wall Street Journal online report says Viacom agreed to sell its Famous Music business to Sony's (SNE) Music Publishing joint venture for about $370 million, implying an ample valuation for what we view as a non-core business.
CNOOC Ltd. (CEO)
Reiterates 5 STARS (strong buy) on American Depositary Shares
Analysts: L. Tan, CFA, L. Cang
We see CNOOC benefiting from higher crude oil average selling prices amid increased geopolitical tension, and we are raising 2007 earnings per ADS estimate to $9.71 from $9.09. We also continue to be positive on the Nigeria-OML130 development, which the company indicates is on schedule for production in 2008. We are raising our 12-month target price by $6 to $115, reflecting added potential value from its P2 reserves, which are not proven recoverable but which we see as generally likely to be recovered, given technology or infrastructure investment.

Tatty is a fine ass Puerto Rican mami.� In the city of Miami, chicks like Tatty are abundant.� The guys found her when they rented a scooter and hit 8th street looking for Latinas.� They came across Tatty, and she was willing to talk.� This girl went back to the apartment and stripped down naked in no time.� Man, she had it all: a cute face, an insane ass, and nice tits.
Tatty loved every second of being filmed while she had sex. She even did some titty fucking and let the guys play with her pussy using a dildo.� Tatty is one Latina that really has skills.� She rode the cock quite like no other and gave an incredible blowjob.� In the end, she even let one of the guys cum all over her ass.

I recently returned back from Europe where I had a chance to participate in two extraordinary events: Bouvet BizTalk Innovation Day (s) in Stavanger, Norway and the 40th running of the Berlin Marathon.
Bouvet BizTalk Innovation Day–Norway Recap
This was a two day event hosted by Bouvet. For those of you who are not familiar with Bouvet, Bouvet provides services in the fields of information technology, digital communication and enterprise management. Bouvet has about 900 employees divided between 14 offices in Norway and Sweden. - See more at: http://www.bouvet.no/en/About-Bouvet/
On day one each of the speakers had the opportunity to present their topic to a crowd of around 70 BizTalk professionals from all over Scandinavia. The topics ranged from newer technologies like Windows Azure BizTalk Services, Windows Azure Mobile Services, Windows Azure Service Bus and some more universal topics like being proactive when monitoring the health of BizTalk solutions, BizTalk Mapping Patterns, identifying and rescuing a BizTalk Hostage Project and seeing a preview of the next version of BizTalk360. There was also a special keynote by Paolo Salvatori who works for Microsoft Italy and is recognized world wide for his abilities. All presentations were very well received as indicated by the attendee surveys.
My presentation focused on Enterprise Mobility. This is a topic that I have been dealing with at my day job so I had an opportunity to demonstrate some of the areas of enterprise mobility that I have been thinking about lately. It was also an opportunity to demonstrate a 'reference' application that I have been collaborating on with Mikael Hakansson.
Some of the core principles that I have taken into consideration when dealing with Enterprise Mobility include:
Here is one of the scenarios from my demo that illustrates many of the principles that were previously mentioned.
A few screenshots of the application running in the Windows Phone Emulator:
This was one of the more challenging demos that I have ever been involved in. I had a lot of fun working on this reference app with Mikael and learned a lot in the process. My complete slide deck can be found here.
Many people work on bringing events alive, but two people who I would like to recognize are Tord Glad Nordahl and Anders Stensland. They, in addition to the support Bouvet provided, pulled off a fantastic event. I have had the opportunity to present in Sweden in 2010 and 2011 and I continue to be amazed by the amount of BizTalk interest in Scandinavia. If you do have the opportunity to attend the Bouvet BizTalk Innovation conference in the future, I highly recommend it. They did an amazing job.
40th Berlin Marathon
One of my hobbies is running. I am a pretty average runner but I enjoy the challenges of running and also try to reap the health benefits of staying active. I have run over 12 half marathons over the past 6 years and finished my first marathon last year in Chicago. Whenever I have gone to Europe to speak in the past I have always tried to make a side trip within Europe to experience another culture. In speaking with one of the other presenters (Steef-Jan Wiggers) we had decided that we would head to Berlin after the conference in Norway. He recommended going to Berlin to experience its rich history. Having never been to Germany, myself and my wife made plans to join him in Berlin.
I knew that the Berlin Marathon was held in late September. The Berlin Marathon is one of the 6 major Marathons in the world. The others include New York, Boston, Chicago, London and Tokyo. So when I found out that I would be in Berlin on the same day of this historic event, I couldn't resist the temptation of participating in this event.
The registration deadline had passed but I was able to find a travel agent from Boston who would sell us packages. With this information, I presented the opportunity to Steef-Jan and he obliged. He has recently gotten back into running and this would provide a great opportunity to run his first marathon.
The event itself was rather amazing. Over 42 000 runners participated in the event with an estimated 1 million spectators. It was an awesome experience and one that I will never forget. I finished the marathon in 4 hours 34 minutes and 56 seconds which was 4 minutes faster than my Chicago time.
A few pictures:

After the run
Celebrating – German style
After the race the Adidas store would engrave your time into a running band that was provided as part of your registration.
One of the best parts of the MVP program is the people you meet and the friendships that you develop. Without being in the MVP program, this trip would have never happened. Being part of the program is truly an honor.
Thanks Tord for your hospitality in Norway. It was a great opportunity to experience my Norwegian heritage and I thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful country.
Thanks Steef for being an amazing tour guide while in Germany. Your German came in handy many times and I learned a lot about German history while I was there. Running the marathon with you was also a great experience. Next time we won't do as much sightseeing the day before the race .
I also would like to thank the other MVPs (Sandro, Nino, Saravana) and Paolo for a great experience as well. Talking shop whenever we get together is a lot of fun and always interesting.

I Paid: $1.99 per 14.5-ounce bottle (prices may vary by region)
I like the newly released line of Neuro Drinks in part because they come in bold, retro-futuristic bottles that scream, "Drink of Tomorrow!" in a very mid-'90s sort of way. And I really like them because they've got the cojones to market themselves as not merely good for you, but the nearest retail equivalent to a panacea, the legendary cure for all ailments. Most "performance enhancing" beverages or so-called functional foods content themselves with one or two puffed-up claims that "have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration." But Neuro Drinks? They're like the Mayo Clinic in a bottle.
The three varieties that I picked up had four radical claims each. NeuroSonic will "provide mental energy," "support focus and concentration," "promote healthy aging" (whatever the deuce that means), and "support memory." Trim promotes "healthy weight loss," "better digestive health," "helps curb appetite," and, again, "promotes healthy aging." Bliss "helps reduce stress," "enhances mood," "supports memory," and "promotes a positive outlook."
None of these extraordinary claims have been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Instead, you're just meant to take it on faith that a 200 percent daily dose of vitamin B6 (Sonic) or a little dash of pretty well debunked phosphatidylserine (Bliss) will, when consumed orally, make you into a fitter, stronger, healthier, more blissed-out person. (An Oklahoma TV station took these drinks to a local doctor, who said, in essence, that the melatonin in NeuroSleep and vitamin D in Sun and fiber in Trim may have an impact, possibly a negative one, and the rest of the stuff is unlikely to do much of anything.) Nevertheless, the tag line for the entire line of drinks is the hubristic "Operating System for Life."
I am not a doctor, so I can't evaluate the health claims. But I can evaluate the flavor. NeuroSonic tastes precisely like Flintstones Vitamins dissolved in soda water. I'm more amenable to this flavor than most people, but I recognize that it's not an ideal way for a beverage to taste. It's a bit sweet but not cloying, to its credit.
Trim reminds one of those Japanese rice candies that come in the see-through, edible rice paper wrappers: A sort of beaten-down citrus-esque flavor meets rice, with the same hollow sucralose finish that marred all three drinks I sampled.
Finally, Bliss—soda water plus sucralose plus orange flavoring plus berry flavoring.
In summation: If you're drinking for flavor alone, there's not much to enjoy here.

Fabric Lust
Friday, October 08, 2010 | Category: Designers, Fabric, Magazines
I am in the midst of organizing the endless sea of home, travel and fashion magazines that are scattered throughout my office, showroom and home. Some are my daughers', some my assistants' and some my own, and each contain a treasure trove of material and inspiration I can't bear to part with. I guess you could say that I am a bit of a design hoarder.
I came across the back cover of this month's House Beautiful which features a beautiful fabric from the Thom Filicia collection for Kravet, which is a glorious take on the so right now Ikat craze. I love the pairing with the geometric prints, contemporary nicknacks and especially the fabric ottoman in lieu of a traditional coffee table. Such a cool space! How do you feel about it? Here are some more great fabrics from this cool collection. So glad to be back in the blogging business after our malware snafu! I missed posting and reading my fellow Material Girl's posts 🙂

CQiNet Linking Ham Radio Via the Internet |
EchoLinux - README
EchoLinux - Using
Links |
What is CQiNet?CQiNet is a family of programs that combine Ham Radio with the Internet using Voice over IP (VoIP) technology. Two programs are currently in the family, "theBridge" and echoLinux. Thebridge is a iLink/EchoLink compatable conference bridge that runs under various versions of Unix as well as Windows. EchoLinux is a EchoLink client program for the Linux operating system. Project Goals
Why ?Currently there are three popular VoIP packages used by Ham Radio operators, IRLP, ILink and EchoLink. Since none of these packages are open source it is difficult to contribute to the their development and learn from them by studying their source code. Let's face it for many of us Ham Radio is more about playing with technology than it is about yacking on the radio or Internet. |

The President is elected for a renewable term of two and a half years, i.e. half the lifetime of a Parliament. The President represents the European Parliament vis-à-vis the outside world and in its relations with the other EU institutions.
The President oversees the work of the Parliament and its constituent bodies as well as the debates in plenary and ensures that Parliament's Rules of Procedure are adhered to.
At the beginning of every European Council meeting, the President of the European Parliament sets out Parliament's point of view and its concerns as regards the items on the agenda and other subjects.
After the European Union's budget has been adopted by Parliament, the President signs it, rendering it operational. The EP President and the President of the Council both sign all legislative acts adopted under ordinary legislative procedure.
The European Parliament is made up of 751 Members elected in the 28 Member States of the enlarged European Union. Since 1979 MEPs have been elected by direct universal suffrage for a five-year period.
Each country decides on the form its election will take, but must guarantee equality of the sexes and a secret ballot. EU elections are by proportional representation.
Seats are allocated on the basis of population of each Member State. Slightly more than a third of MEPs are women. MEPs are grouped by political affinity, not nationality.
The Members of the European Parliament sit in political groups – they are not organised by nationality, but by political affiliation. There are currently 8 political groups in the European Parliament.
25 Members are needed to form a political group, and at least one-quarter of the Member States must be represented within the group. Members may not belong to more than one political group.
Some Members do not belong to any political group and are known as non-attached Members.
Each political group care of its own internal organisation by appointing a chair (or two co-chairs in the case of some groups), a bureau and a secretariat.
The places assigned to Members in the Chamber are decided by political affiliation, from left to right, by agreement with the group chairmen.
Before every vote in plenary the political groups scrutinise the reports drawn up by the parliamentary committees and table amendments to them.
The position adopted by the political group is arrived at by discussion within the group. No Member can be forced to vote in a particular way.
In order to do the preparatory work for Parliament's plenary sittings, the Members are divided up among a number of specialised standing committees. There are 20 parliamentary committees. A committee consists of between 25 and 73 MEPs, and has a chair, a bureau and a secretariat. The political make-up of the committees reflects that of the plenary assembly.
The parliamentary committees meet once or twice a month in Brussels. Their debates are held in public.
The committees draw up, amend and adopt legislative proposals and own-initiative reports. They consider Commission and Council proposals and, where necessary, draw up reports to be presented to the plenary assembly.
Parliament can also set up sub-committees and special temporary committees to deal with specific issues, and is empowered to create formal committees of inquiry under its supervisory remit to investigate allegations of maladmistration of EU law.
The committee chairs coordinate the work of the committees in the Conference of Committee Chairs.
The European Parliament's delegations maintain relations and exchange information with parliaments in non-EU countries. Through its delegations, the European Parliament helps to represent the European Union externally and to promote in third countries the values on which the European Union is founded, namely the principles of liberty, democracy, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, and the rule of law.
There are several types of delegations: joint parliamentary committees, parliamentary cooperation committees, other interparliamentary delegations and delegations to multilateral parliamentary assemblies.
There are different political bodies in the European Parliament responsible for the organisation of Parliament's business and legislative planning or for Parliament rules as well as administrative, financial, staff and organisational matters.
The Conference of Presidents is the political body in Parliament responsible for
The Conference of Presidents prepares Parliament's timetable and plenary sitting agendas and allocates seats in the Chamber.
The Conference of Presidents consists of the President of Parliament and the political group chairmen.
One representative of the non-attached Members also has a seat in the Conference of Presidents but no voting rights.
The Conference of Presidents takes its decisions by consensus or by weighted vote based on the number of Members in each political group.
The duties of the Conference of Presidents are laid down in the Rules of Procedure.
It organises the work of the European Parliament and its bodies.
It is consulted on all matters relating to legislative planning and relations with other EU bodies and institutions.
The Conference of Presidents generally meets twice a month. Its meetings are not held in public.
The minutes of Conference of Presidents meetings are translated into the official languages, printed and distributed to all Members.
Any Member may ask questions about the Conference of Presidents' activities.
This gives Members the opportunity, outside plenary sittings, to exchange views with an invited guest or obtain prior information about Commission proposals.
The Bureau is the body that lays down rules for Parliament.
It draws up Parliament's preliminary draft budget and decides all administrative, staff and organisational matters.
The Bureau consists of the President of the European Parliament, the 14 Vice-Presidents and the five Quaestors elected by Parliament for a period of two and a half years (which can be renewed).
In the event of a tied vote in the Bureau, the President has the deciding vote. The Quaestors are members of the Bureau in an advisory capacity.
The Bureau has numerous administrative and financial duties within Parliament.
It is responsible for all matters relating to the internal running of Parliament.
It takes decisions on the organisation of sittings, it can authorise committee or delegation meetings outside the three usual places of work, and prepares the preliminary draft estimates of Parliament's expenditure.
It appoints the Secretary-General who is responsible for running Parliament's administration and establishes the composition and organisation of the Secretariat.
The Bureau generally meets twice a month.
Bureau minutes are translated into the official languages, printed and distributed to all Members.
Any Member may ask questions about the Bureau's activities.
The Bureau decides on the funding for the political parties represented in the European Parliament.
The College of Quaestors is the European Parliament body responsible for administrative and financial matters directly concerning Members and their working conditions.
There are five Quaestors. They are also members of the Bureau.
The European Parliament elects the Quaestors after the election of the President and the 14 Vice-Presidents.
The Quaestors are elected by a majority secret ballot in three rounds: an absolute majority of the votes cast is required for the first two rounds and a relative majority is sufficient for the last round.
Their term of office is two and a half years and they have an advisory role in the Bureau.
The Quaestors are responsible for administrative and financial matters that directly affect Members, for example making general services and equipment available.
They can present proposals to modify or rewrite texts on all rules adopted by the Bureau.
The Quaestors generally meet once a month.
Any Member may ask questions about the Quaestors' activities.
The Conference of Committee Chairs is the political body in Parliament that works for better cooperation between the committees.
The Conference of Committee Chairs consists of the chairmen of all the standing and temporary committees; it elects its chairman. The Conference of Committee Chairs generally meets once a month in Strasbourg during plenary sittings.
The Conference of Committee Chairs may make recommendations to the Conference of Presidents on the committees' work and the agendas for plenary sittings.
It can also advise the Conference of Presidents if there is disagreement as to which committee should be responsible.
The Bureau and Conference of Presidents may delegate certain tasks to the Conference of Committee Chairs.
The Conference of Delegation Chairs is the political body in Parliament that periodically considers all matters concerning the smooth running of interparliamentary delegations and delegations to the joint parliamentary committees.
The Conference of Delegation Chairs consists of the Chairs of all the standing interparliamentary delegations; it elects its chairman.
The Conference of Delegation Chairs may make recommendations to the Conference of Presidents on the delegations' work.
The Conference of Delegation Chairs draws up a draft annual calendar of interparliamentary meetings and meetings of joint parliamentary committees.
The Bureau and Conference of Presidents may delegate certain tasks to the Conference of Delegation Chairs.
Intergroups can be formed by Members from any political group and any committee, with a view to holding informal exchanges of views on particular subjects and promoting contact between Members and civil society.
Intergroups are not Parliament bodies and therefore may not express Parliament's opinion.
Intergroups are subject to internal rules adopted by the Conference of Presidents on 16 December 1999 (last updated on 11 September 2014), which set out the conditions under which intergroups may be established at the beginning of each parliamentary term and their operating rules.
Chairs of intergroups are required to declare any support they receive in cash or kind, according to the same criteria applicable to Members as individuals. The declarations must be updated every year and are filed in a public register held by the Quaestors.
At its meeting on 11 December 2014 the Conference of Presidents approved the following list of intergroups to be established under the current legislative term of Parliament:
Article 232 of the Treaty on the functioning of the European Union (TFEU) states that the European Parliament shall adopt Rules of Procedure. These are Parliament's internal organisational and operational rules.

Countdown In Tennessee, 1920
The hour-by-hour suspenseful story of the climactic struggle for equal voting rights for women
December 1978 | Volume 30, Issue 1
Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
Section 2. Congress shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
At 5 P.M. on June 4, 1919, when the Sixty-sixth Congress yielded up the two-thirds majority required for passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, a victory celebration among American woman suffragists seemed in order. After all, twenty-one successive Congresses had previously rejected this federal Suffrage Amendment, and it had taken over seventy years of petitioning, lobbying, politicking, and, most recently, picketing by four generations of right-to-vote crusaders to bring the struggle for enfranchisement of women to this high ground.
But the battle-weary, campaign-wise suffrage forces did not celebrate. In the headquarters of Carrie Chapman Catt's National American Woman Suffrage Association at 171 Madison Avenue, New York, the joy was restrained. The NAWSA women remembered how often their brave labors to win full suffrage state by state through amendments to state constitutions had met with heartbreak; they remembered how regularly their stubborn skirmishes to win the half-a-loaf of partial suffrage (voting in presidential or municipal elections only) that was sometimes possible through state legislative enactment had ended in disappointment; they remembered how all of this had led inevitably to the concerted push for federal amendment action. And in remembering, they knew that total victory still had not been won. In the headquarters of the National Woman's Party just off Lafayette Park in Washington on that June night, there was business as usual among Alice Paul's select, young, banner-bearing color guards. They remembered how their silent and dramatic pro-Amendment demonstrations in the halls of Congress and at the gates of the White House had outraged, then intrigued, and finally touched the conscience of the American public; they remembered how this had helped overcome the last bastions of congressional resistance. And vet thev knew thev could not nause to celebrate.
For the long-fought-for passage of the Nineteenth Amendment by Congress in June, 1919, meant only the capture of a beachhead. The final battle in this nation's longest and most civil "war," the battle for ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment, still lay ahead. And up the forty-eight hills once more, all the way—that battle must be won in the states. State by state. To complete adoption of the Amendment now being submitted by Congress to the forty-eight states required ratification by legislatures in three-fourths of those states. The Suffs, as headline writers liked to call them, had to win in no fewer than thirty-six legislatures, while their opponents, the entrenched and well-heeled Antis, could kill the Amendment by squashing it in just thirteen legislatures. And behind the Antis' formally organized battalions—a National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage (for ladies) and American Constitutional League (for gentlemen)—stood the suffragists' real and most powerful enemies, a shadowy conglomerate of special interests referred to by the suffragists as the whisky ring, the railroad trust, and the manufacturers' lobby. Suffragist historian, Ida Husted Harper, once explained the how and why of their sinister manipulations: "The hand of the great moneyed corporations is on the lever of the party 'machines.' They can calculate to a nicety how many voters must be bought, how many candidates must be 'fixed' how many officials must be owned. The entrance of woman into the field would upset all calculations, add to the expenses if she were corruptible, and spoil the plans if she were not."
Although no time limit for completion of ratification had been written into the Nineteenth Amendment (cynics were already predicting it would take twenty years), there was no time to lose if women's votes were to count in the upcoming 1920 elections, a matter, as the Suffs often proclaimed, of patriotic pride no less than simple justice. In a world we had helped make so safe for democracy, democratic America could not lag behind. Women already voted in twenty-six other nations. (Including Germany! And Russia!!) More than that, the memory of American women's contributions to Allied victory in World War I—their crucial work on farms and in offices, hospitals, and munitions factories—was rapidly fading, and with the country longing to return to what would soon be labeled "normalcy," suffrage forces knew that psychologically it was action now or never.

Why study at UCL School of Pharmacy?
The UCL School of Pharmacy is one of the most highly rated pharmacy schools in the UK. As the oldest School, founded by the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain in 1842, it has over 170 years of experience and tradition throughout which it has retained its identity as a specialist institution dedicated to teaching and research in pharmacy and the pharmaceutical sciences. Our ability to embrace change and develop has been a key factor in our successful mission to lead in education, research and policy development that benefits patients, healthcare practice and the discovery and development of medicines.
Our success is measured in the success of the pharmacy and pharmaceutical science graduates at Masters and PhD level who go on to shape the advances in healthcare and the science of medicines. Our new undergraduate MPharm degree programme was fully accredited by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) in 2013. This programme integrates pharmaceutical science into the practice of clinical pharmacy. We offer students the opportunity to become confident and competent healthcare professionals. Years one and two focus on the scientific basis of pharmacy and the translation of medicines from laboratory to patient. In year three students choose from a wide range of advanced specialist options, and in year four students undertake a research project which may be carried out within the school, or in another institution in the UK or abroad.
The role of the pharmacist in managing medicines, patient safety and optimising public health is embedded in our degree through contact with patients in our NHS trust partners and our own student dispensary in Green Light community pharmacy, and through interprofessional learning with UCL medical students.
In pharmaceutical science we offer a range of one-year postgraduate Masters programmes that address the exciting changes in drug discovery and development in the pharmaceutical industry where innovation, entrepreneurship and outsourcing are major factors in an industry challenged by unmet clinical needs and personalised medicines. We offer seven different taught postgraduate degrees: MSc Drug Discovery and Development; MSc Drug Discovery and Pharma Management; MSc in Medicinal Natural Products and Phytochemistry; MSc Experimental Pharmacology and Therapeutics (jointly with UCL Div Biosciences); MSc Pharmacogenetics and Stratified Medicine (jointly with UCL Div Biosciences); a Master of Research (MRes) in Drug Sciences and an MSc Clinical Pharmacy, International Practice and Policy.
Research underpins all our teaching and our academics are internationally renowned researchers at the forefront of their chosen fields. They bring this experience and knowledge to their teaching and their dedication and accessibility is an integral part of our unique School culture. A wide variety of PhD study opportunities are part of this research endeavour. We are committed to continuing professional development and provide training programmes for practising pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in a workplace learning environment.

Are you thinking using the slotted cord lock sewn to each UQ corner with gross grain? Then run the suspension through the cord lock them channel then cord lock? I thought this mat work too but abandoned it for fear of modifying my quilt.
On my DIY UQ I'm going to do my suspension like leahlo but do all shock cord like the head end. That way the shock cord pulls the ends tight but I should still be able to slide it fore and aft at will.

The Delhi High Court Thursday rejected a plea of Delhi University students' asking it to vacate the order on a photocopy shop in the north campus, restraining it on selling of photocopies of certain text books of international publishing houses. The students moved the court saying the ban on the photocopy shop be lifted to ensure their welfare and preparation to the coming term-end examinations in May this year. Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw, however, refused to allow the plea of students and posted the matter for further hearing for May 13. The court had earlier restrained Rameshwari Photocopy Service located in Delhi School of Economics from making or selling course packs and also reproducing the publications of three international publishing houses -- the Oxford University Press, the Cambridge University Press and Taylor and Francis The three had moved the court Aug 14 last year against Rameshwari Photocopy Service alleging that it was infringing their copyright over the text books by selling their photocopies to students. The court, while passing an interim order last year, had restrained the photocopy shop from "making or selling course packs and also reproducing the plaintiff's publication or substantial portion by compiling the same either in a book form or in the form of a course pack, till the final disposal of the said application". The order had said: "The photocopier is running its shop under license from university. Photocopier has no right to compile such course packs and books/articles published by the plaintiffs and more so, when the university has taken a stand that that they have no intention to breach any law by making such reproductions as complained of by the plaintiff in the present suit." The Delhi University earlier had assured the court that it would take steps to prevent the copyright infringement. During the hearing Thursday, an advocate appearing for publishing houses sought dismissal of the students' plea. "That shop photocopied my entire text book just because you are teacher or student... you cannot use the photocopy of the text book. The objective of this case is to stop this activity and not to stop the students from studying the books. They can study the chapters or books in library. But the text books can not be reproduced entirely."

Thats what they blame most poltergeist phenomenon anymore. Usually it revolves around a troubled teenager. I even watched a paranormal state where this woman was going through menopause and they believed the activity was circled around this woman and what she was going through. Objects being thrown, things moving on there own ect.
We made reservations to stay the night at a ( Supposedly ) haunted building in November ( I KNOW... COLD ! ) Hopefully not to bad since they dont have any heat in the place. I hope I dont run into any menopausel phenomenons

And so we bring you...the premiere of Lifetime Original Movie Patricia Cornwell's The Front at NYC's Hearst Tower. (And, obviously, Judith Light was there.)It must be asked: what the hell is happening with Judith Light's shoe? Is it creeping away? While it's true that my eye doesn't know whether to look at the shoes or the star, it's also true that Andie MacDowell looks casually lovely and is handling the unseasonable April heat wave with aplomb. Ashley Williams has enough color blocks here to paint an Albers. Or three! Why does Daniel Sunjata get stuck playing the Baxter so much? He's so suave! (Is "Baxter" actually a term in use? I mean, I know the movie sucked. But it did kind of fill a linguistic void. And Michelle Williams had a really good look.) Patricia Cornwell is part of that generation of authors who actually had a fascinating and lurid life which sounds, yes, "straight out of one of her novels." She also tends to dress like a particularly badass Suze Orman, which I'm very into, given her bona fides. I'm just gonna say it: Rainey Qualley (Andie MacDowell's daughter!)

With the addition of two new patients, the Las Vegas Valley has four of the nation's 14 reported cases of West Nile virus, health officials say.
On Wednesday, the Southern Nevada Health District reported the area's first death from the virus; there has been one other death nationally in 2013, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Health officials citing federal privacy laws would not disclose whether the most recent West Nile-related death involved a man or a woman or where he or she died. In early July, the health district revealed a 60-year-old woman had fallen severely ill from the virus. The district also reported then that a 70-year-old man contracted the disease but his condition was not as serious and he was not hospitalized.
The two new cases involve a 77-year-old man and an 87-year-old woman. Each has the serious neuroinvasive form of the virus that affects the nervous system and can cause encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain, and meningitis, which causes inflammation of the membrane around the brain and spinal cord.
Devin Barrett, a senior disease investigator for the health district, said cases of the virus have been reported earlier this year in the Las Vegas Valley, but she has no concrete explanation for why.
"Normally we get the bulk of our cases in August and September," Barrett said. "Who knows what's going to happen? If our typical trend continues, this year will be higher than normal for us."
Last year there were eight cases of the virus reported in Southern Nevada, three less than in 2011.
Clark County has had five West Nile-related deaths since 2003.
Dr. Alan Greenberg, an infectious disease specialist at University Medical Center, said it could be that the large number of foreclosed homes in Clark County with standing pools of water on their grounds is helping to breed mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes pick up the virus from infected birds and transmit it to humans, birds and other animals they bite.
Although Barrett agreed that abandoned homes could play a role, she noted that Las Vegas has had large numbers of foreclosed houses in the recent past without seeing an uptick in West Nile virus.
"I know more doctors are testing for it now because I've seen the lab results," Barrett said. "That also may be playing a role. I'm not sure there is any one answer."
West Nile-positive mosquitoes have been detected in the 89014 ZIP code, but Barrett said the new cases come from outside that area. "We believe that the mosquitoes are throughout the area," she said.
Greenberg stressed there is no West Nile virus vaccine available for people. He pointed out, however, that the vast majority of people, as many as 80 percent, who become infected with the virus have no symptoms. About one in five who are infected will develop a fever with a headache, joint pains, vomiting, diarrhea or rash. Most of these people will recover completely, though fatigue and weakness can last for weeks or months.
Less than 1 percent of those who are infected will develop encephalitis or meningitis, which can include paralysis and seizures as well as death, Greenberg said.
The patients who are hospitalized can only receive supportive treatment, such as intravenous fluids, pain medication and nursing care. "There's not much we can do," Greenberg said.
"It really boils down to how well your immune system fights it off," Barrett said. "That's why prevention from mosquito bites is so important."
Long-sleeve shirts and long pants, she said, should be worn at dawn and dusk, when mosquitoes do their feeding. People also should use mosquito repellent containing DEET. Swimming pools should be cleaned regularly, and when water is seen outside in such places as pots, wheelbarrows and tires, it should be eliminated.

An unknown gunman slipped into a Bustleton Wawa and quietly robbed the business last Wednesday afternoon, making off with two cartons of cigarettes, Philadelphia police say.
The bandit made no apparent attempt to conceal his face or disguise himself, as evidenced by surveillance video recovered from the convenience store at 8900 Krewstown Road. The heist occurred at about 3:09 p.m. when the robber walked up to the store from Bloomfield Avenue, entered, approached a clerk and lifted his shirt to reveal an object in his waistband. It was a gun, police said.
The employee surrendered two cartons of cigarettes to the robber, who exited the store and ran westbound on Bloomfield, away from Krewstown. He was described as white, about 25 years old, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with a medium build, brown hair with red highlights and a full mustache and beard. He wore a dark baseball cap with "FDNY" on the front, a dark long-sleeve shirt with "Hollister 1922" on the front, white cargo shorts, black socks and sneakers.
To view the surveillance video, visit the Philadelphia Police channel on YouTube.com. Call 215-686-TIPS or text to PPD TIP to report information. ••

There are a lot of monster girls hentai out there. I believe there are eroge based on monster girls, not just one but over ten of them recently. There are around 2-3 eroge for Lamia only and 2-3 where Lamia is the main heroine, and many more with Lamia, or Echidna.
Just a question of what next? |

This manga is pretty interesting. I thought at first that the other half species with also have the same situation like Miia. Upper body is human while the lower body is non-human. But when I saw this part
I was like, as if they were just cosplaying. Having bunny ears, cat ears, tails and still maintain a full human body with just an attachment of other parts of an animal. OR maybe it just depends on the animal they are portraying. PS. So, only chapter 1 was translated so far?
