INTRODUCTION: Studies prove that the pharmaceutical care (PC) increases the adherence to the antiretroviral; thus, they increase the undetectable viral load. The viral load diminishes, and the prevalence of undetectable viral load increases, as the levels of adherence to the treatment increase, being in general necessary high adhesion to reach the effectiveness therapeutic. Increasing the adherence levels, it increases the surviving chances and quality of life and diminishes the transmission risks. Studies demonstrate that the self-effectiveness expectation to use the medication correctly is the main predictor of adherence, and that the more complex the therapeutic regimen is, and the perception of side effects, the smaller the adherence is, highlighting the importance of preventing, identifying and solving the problems during the treatment with antiretroviral, problems related to the medication (PRM) through the PC.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of the PC on the adherence of HIV-patients to the antiretroviral therapy, identify, prevent and solve PRMs during the treatment.
METHODOLOGY: One-side randomized clinical trail controlled by non-intervention in parallel. 332 patients randomized are included in the control and intervention groups (PC). Questionnaires will be applied: sociodemographic, adherence to the antiretroviral through self-report, smoke, BECK (depression), CAGE (problems related with alcohol consumption) of self-effectiveness, expectation of results and social support. Each 4 months measure of viral load and CD4 will be carried out. The ones from the PC group will receive a card with information about the medication and all the medicines will be identified by different colors. The follow-up will last one year according to the instructions of DADER program.

The small box contains Nursing teabags in a sealed bag and makes the perfect refill for the small tin or can be used as a gift.
Contents- 20 Teabags (Net wt. 35g)
Goat's Rue (Galega Officinalis)- Renowned for it's benefits to breastfeeding women, Goat's Rue is considered in herbal medicine to be a galactogogue, a key herb that can help to increase the supply of breast milk. Perfect as part of a nursing blend for a Mum who has a low supply.
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa)- Alfalfa is also a galactagogue with a slightly milder action, but in addition is highly nutritious containing many vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to benefit a nursing mother and her baby.
Nettle (Urtica dioica)- Nettle has been commonly used in women after childbirth to treat Anaemia, as it is particularly high in iron so can help to build the blood and fight postpartum fatigue. Nettle also has a galactogogue action and may help to increase breast milk production in women with a low supply.
Aniseed (Pimpinella Anisum) and Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare)- Along with the other herbs in NURSING, Aniseed and Fennel seeds have been used throughout history as galactagogues and can be helpful to maintain a constant milk flow and treat clogged ducts or other problems in the mammary glands. Additionally, they can be beneficial to help treat babies with colic or gassiness, as their active constituents can pass directly through the breast milk to the baby.
Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis)- A key herb for stress, anxiety and insomnia, BBTC's NURSING is completed with a sprinkling of Lemon balm to help support a nursing mother by restoring the nervous system and encouraging relaxation, that will in turn improve milk flow and production. These nervous system benefits can also be passed on to the baby directly via the breast milk along with Lemon Balm's actions to help relieve colic and gassiness.
Place 1 teabag per cup of boiling water (220mls), infuse for 5-7 minutes, strain and serve. Can be reinfused for a second cup.

Nashville, Tenn. - The Tennessee State men's basketball team improved to 6-0 at home this season with an 80-48 win over UT Martin on Thursday night.
TSU (10-7, 4-0 OVC) was paced by Kellen Thornton who had a team-high 13 points and added seven rebounds.
Patrick Miller also had a strong game, scoring 12 points, dishing out three assists and securing four boards.
The Tigers also shot 47.6 percent (10-of-21) from downtown and 87 percent (20-of-23) from the line.
TSU fell behind, 7-12, in the game's first six minutes as UT Martin (4-13, 1-4 OVC) made six of the squad's first eight shots (75 percent). The Tigers also committed four turnovers during the stretch which further limited their offensive opportunities.
After the Skyhawks strong opening surge, TSU fought back with a 17-2 run that included a three-pointer by Jay Harris. The run made the score 24-14 in favor of the home team with eight minutes remaining in the first half.
The Tigers continued to roll and eventually stretched their lead to 22 when Jordan Gaither sunk a pair of free throws. The buckets allowed TSU to take a 46-24 lead going into the break.
Tennessee State made 14-of-26 during the opening stanza for a 53.8 shooting percentage, and held the Skyhawks to a 32.4 line (11-for-34). TSU also made 13 out of 15 free throws in the first half, and UT Martin only got to the line once.
UT Martin started the second half on a 10-4 run before TSU head coach Travis Williams called a timeout to stop the flow of Skyhawk points.
Williams's pep-talk worked as Gaither sunk a layup immediately following the stoppage and Cyphers drained a three on TSU's next possession. The flurry was part of a 10-2 run that culminated in a Miller jumper from outside the arc.
The Tigers maintained their 20-plus points lead for the remainder of the contest thanks to a suffocating defensive effort that forced 16 turnovers and only allowed an 8.3 three-point percentage (1-of-12).
TSU was able to rest some of its starters for the last eight minutes of the game, and the squad actually raised the lead to 32 before the final horn sounded and the Tigers walked away with an 80-48 victory.
Eleven Tigers scored in the contest and TSU's bench outscored UT Martin's 36-8.
TSU will defend its spotless OVC record on Saturday when the team takes on Southeast Missouri at 7 p.m.

"I don't want to survive," Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor) says in "12 Years a Slave," the new film from British director Steve McQueen. "I want to live."
Based on a true story of a free man who is abducted from the North and sold into slavery in the South, the Fox Searchlight film costars Michael Fassbender, the lead in both McQueen's "Hunger" and "Shame," as a sadistic slave owner as comfortable quoting Scripture as brandishing a whip.
The trailer makes it clear that this is a far bleaker -- and more realistic -- tale than "Django Unchained."
Opening Oct. 18, "12 Years a Slave" is an unusually British interpretation of slavery.
In additon to being directed by the London-born McQueen, many of the film's lead actors -- Ejiofor, Fassbender and Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays another slave owner -- hail from the United Kingdom.
The film was produced by Brad Pitt, who also has a small role in "12 Years a Slave."

Asia stocks rise on heels of good US data
BANGKOK (AP) — Good news about the U.S. economy, including strong auto sales, helped boost Asian stock markets Thursday.
A Federal Reserve survey released Wednesday showed that all 12 of the Fed's districts reported modest to moderate economic growth from July through late August. More good news came from the auto industry: General Motors and other carmakers posted strong sales in August, giving the industry its best month in six years.
That data comes on top of the Institute for Supply Management's report, released Tuesday, that said U.S. factory production rose in August at the fastest pace in two years.
Japan's Nikkei 225 index was marginally higher at 13,060.52. Hong Kong's Hang Seng gained 0.9 percent to 22,531.24. South Korea's Kospi advanced 1 percent to 1,950.62. Benchmarks in Singapore, Taiwan and Indonesia also rose.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.4 percent to 5,143.70. Benchmarks in the Philippines and New Zealand were also lower.
Investors were also looking ahead to Friday, when the U.S. jobs report for August will be released. Economists expect that the U.S. created 177,000 jobs last month and that the unemployment rate held steady at 7.4 percent, according to financial data provider FactSet.
Friday's jobs report is the last major piece of economic data the Federal Reserve will have to work with before the central bank decides whether or not to pull back on its massive bond-buying program. That program has kept interest rates abnormally low. While most investors believe the Fed will begin to pull back, the question has become when and how much.
"In any event, consensus for September tapering appears to be steamrolling forward. And the Fed might get some help this month with the payrolls to boot," said analysts at DBS Bank Ltd. in Singapore.
Wall Street stocks rose Wednesday on good economic news. The Dow Jones industrial average gained 0.7 percent to close at 14,930.87. The Standard & Poor's 500 rose 0.8 percent to 1,653.08. The Nasdaq composite gained 1 percent to 3,649.04.
Benchmark crude for October delivery was up 22 cents at $107.45 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell $1.31 to close at $107.23 a barrel on the Nymex on Wednesday.
In currencies, the euro fell to $1.3192 from $1.3199 late Tuesday. The dollar fell to 99.70 yen from 99.76 yen.

Why do you think someone would want to be on a boat in a race like the America's Cup? 2. In the America's Cup and in World Cup soccer and the Olympics, different nations compete against each other. This contributes to a feeling of national pride and patriotism. Sometimes it can lead to too much competition and dislike of other countries. Do you think it's good for nations to compete against each other in world class competitions? Why or why not? 1. Although the Americas cup has a long history , prestige and it can be a once in a life time experience I think that only a person who loves the adventure and the sea can be interested in this kind of activity. It has to be a person that really likes to live a hard and exciting experience. If this person fulfills with the profile I do believe that he/she can enjoy this experience and he/she can remember it the rest of his/her live. We have to consider that its not only about sailing, its also about boat and sailing design and management skills. I think that a person who lives this experience can be really proud of him/herself. Its a kind of challenge and a really nice experience. 2. In my opinion theres no problem about competitions between different countries. I think that its really nice that each country prepares itself for a sport international competition and it shouldnt be a problematic item. However this events turn into a political competition and sometimes sports take a secondary role. I think that this is the main problem with this kind of events. If it wasnt a political competition or a fight between countries it would be one of the most beautiful event of the year.

Apple is expected to unveil its smaller iPad, dubbed 'iPad mini', at its official event on Tuesday, and it speculation is that the device could have a 16:9 display. However, new leaked parts that allegedly belong to Apple's upcoming tablet suggest otherwise.
Photographs of what is claimed to be an iPad mini display panel surfaced on ETrade Supply on Wednesday, with the same 4:3 aspect ratio as Apple's 9.7in iPad and measurements of 162mm by 124mm.
ETrade Supply also published photos of what is believed to be the iPad mini's battery. The model number on the battery, which is rated as 3.72V, 16.7WHr, and 4490mAh, is "A1445".
Apple sent out invitations for a 23 October event this week, which is expected to see the launch of the iPad mini as well as a 13in MacBook Pro with Retina Display, a new Mac mini, and a thinner iMac.

Man, what a chapter. A lot happened, that's for sure. I never expected them to meet Gyokuro this soon. Also a little surprised Aqua just let Moka be chained right next to Alucard, as it seems like that's not the safest thing to do.
We also got a little glimpse into Hokuto's motives. At the very least, we now know he might not want to destroy the human world. Gyokuro said there were 7 who opposed her speech. Tsukune, Kurumu, Fong Fong, Mizore, Yukari, Ruby. Hokuto had to be the seventh. Which I can only assume means he doesn't want a human genoice. Interesting.
And by the way, why didn't Kokoa and Gin go with them?

If things get worse, Tsukune might face both Akua and Kaluha as major enemies unless the remaining harem has received a powerup to - minimally - stand a chance with teaming up (eg. 2 vs 1).
/hopes for both Touhou and Mikogami to have an epic entrance eg. with a combination-sealing technique to bring the fortress to the ground or to weaken Alucard (should he awaken in the end which might be quite likely)
Asides of the battle: I would like to know more about the busdriver. He seems more important than a mere NPC-esque character, but maybe Ikeda is just good at fooling me, lol.

Tenmei, Bus Driver, Lilith, Youkai Academy staff and Youkai Academy students are probably all surprise reinforcements.
I can imagine Mikogami, Lilith and the Bus Driver surprisingly showing up with Youkai Academy students, as Mikogami said in chapter 15, they need everyone to be prepared, Tsukune and the girls were no exceptions.
So i believe the reason why Mikogami hasn't had any parts in this Arc yet is because he is busy preparing the students for Youkai Academy's counterattack against Fairy Tale, like Ruby said.

Well, in my opinion, it would be pretty difficult for Mikogami and Tohou Fuhai to enter the Flying Garden as easily as Tsukune's team managed to infiltrate it After all Fairy Tale's HQ has most likely been put into a state of alert, after Tsukune's team has been discovered.
Furthermore , if you think about Tsukune's attitude I think he has more to demonstrate then what he had seen n chapter 43, to the point where he might not even need further reinforcements. After all, if you think about it, you don't usually cross fists with the leader of the enemy, in the middle of their own base, say that you will rescue the hostage that the enemy needs to realize their objective, unless you're pretty confident about you're own abilities.
So, taking that into consideration I think that Tsukune's team should manage to rescue Moka no matter who Tsukune will need to fight to reach Moka.

According to Yukari, the others were going to arrive later on, they're either further behind Tsukune and the gang or they're making last minute preperations for the continuing raid Fairy Tale.
However i agree with Chris38 that Fairy Tale's state of alert could be difficult for Touhou and Mikogami to get in, BUT this could be a good thing, if Fairy Tale's state of alert is concentrated on the enemy forces inside the HQ rather than preparing for reinforcements of the enemies's forces from outside, than Touhou's and Mikogami's arrival and infiltration should be easier.
From the looks of the anti-aircraft defences of Fairy Tale HQ it looks like they're manned rather than automatic, this could also be a good thing if they were to become a problem.

I just started reading the chapter and I noticed something rather odd. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the translation but f*** me sideways if someone can't translate a numerical value, but the first page says that the Fairy Tale HQ is floating 4000 meters over Japan. Guys, that's 4km. At a 4km altitude, anyone would be able to see it from the ground. Granted, there's ample cloud cover but what if it wasn't intentional? Anyways, it would've made more sense to me if it was 40km above Japan, but I'll continue reading.

We definitely haven't seen the last of Tsukune's Shinso power, this is only the beginning, so i have to say that something will happen to that Holy Lock, i don't have a doubt in my mind
I can't wait till that happens..., but it's worth the wait because i wanna see the current Tsukune in action, before he needs his Shinso powers.

Have You Heard About… The Disappearing Spoon
… the amazing science, people, and more behind the periodic table of the elements? The Disappearing Spoon and Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements, by Sam Kean, is a fascinating look at everything from how the solar system was formed, to how the periodic table was formed, to the lives of various chemists and physicists, some famous and some less well known. It also includes useful bits of information, such as why it's a bad idea to spill tellurium on yourself.* The author has an excellent ability to bring highly technical information to the understanding of an educated layperson, as well as a wry sense of humor. The two combine to make the book very readable and enjoyable. I had to keep two bookmarks in it—one to mark my place in the main text, and one for the excellent asides at the end.
One of my favorite quotes (from p. 338):
[As] he got older and crustier, Einstein came to distrust quantum mechanics. Its statistical and deeply probabilistic nature sounded too much like gambling to him, and it prompted him to object that "God does not play dice with the universe." He was wrong, and it's too bad that most people have never heard the rejoinder by Niels Bohr: "Einstein! Stop telling God what to do."
If you have an interest in the history of science, its practical applications, and odd bits of trivia, I highly recommend this book!
*You'll reek of garlic for weeks.

Making short videos
Budget £10-20 GBP
Hi Everyone! We URGENTLY need to make a series of short videos called - Meet The Cannibals. You have complete creative freedom but the basic idea is that there is an interviewer who is quite serious and professional and he/she is interviewing a deranged stupid cannibal. While the interviewer is attempting to conduct a insightful serious interview - the cannibal is just making random noises, not being responsive, and trying to eat the interviewer or the interviewers fingers or nose or hair for example, but in a funny non aggressive or scary way. Example questions to ask the cannibal: What happened to you? Who did this to you? How long have you been like this? Do you remember ever being a normal human? Where have you been hiding? How many more of you are there? Is the world at risk of a cannibal apocalypse? Each video should be no more that 1 minute long. The interviewer will be the same person, but you will be interviewing different cannibals - they could be groups of cannibals in one interview if you wanted - so each cannibal needs to have a different personality and look different - you can ask them each the same questions but have them react differently to show their persona. Think Scary movie type of funny horror. We need the videos by Thursday 13th ideally! Make as many or as few as you like! Details of why we need the videos and what they are for will be given once we speak. You can of course use them for your own portfolio and we will be happy to provide references etc. and any expenses will be paid with pre approval from us. Also we have a venue in Shoreditch, London that we would be happy for you to film in - and we are also happy to film you if you prefer that rather than ding it remotely yourself and sending us the videos. Finally we would like the cannibal to be wearing a black t-shirt with our company logo on it - I will let you know more details about this at a later stage. Any questions let me know :)

Gone are the days of manually performing estimating work with pen and paper on a job site. For contractors who specialize in roofing, there are many software platforms out there that can help to streamline your estimating processes, improve your bids and save you time and money.
We put this guide together to help you better understand the market for roofing and siding contractor software.
Here's what we'll cover:
What Is Roofing and Sliding Contractor Software?
Common Features of Roofing and Siding Contractor Software
Roofing and Siding Contractor Software Pricing
Roofing and Siding Contractor Software Deployment
Evaluating Roofing and Siding Contractor Software
Roofing and siding contractor software is designed to simplify the day-to-day tasks associated with a professional roofing and siding company. From sales prospecting to bid estimating, ordering, accounting, and project management, implementing an effective roofing and siding construction management software program will increase profits by improving efficiency and accuracy throughout every step of the process.
Roofing and siding software is typically sold as a niche suite of applications and modules specifically for roofing and siding contractors. However, some vendors that offer general construction software may offer additional modules for roofing contractors. Usually with the more niche vendors you get a wider range of features, at the risk of not having the kind of support or other services you might expect from a large enterprise software vendor.
Below is a table that breaks down the common features you will find in most roofing and siding contractor software platforms.
|Equipment tracking
|Allows you to track which employees have signed out which pieces of equipment. Track equipment maintenance history as well.
|Juggling multiple projects at once? Rely on the scheduling feature so you can maximize your workforce's productivity and efficiency and ensure that jobs are getting completed on time.
|Inventory management
|Keep track of all of your parts and materials and ensure that you never show up to a job under-equipped.
|Customer relationship management
|Store your clients' information in a database so you can easily look up their contact information and work order history.
|Keep track of payroll for contractors, in addition to managing receipts, invoices and other expenses.
|Photo capturing
|Uses smartphone camera to capture pictures of job in progress to send to customers and other contractors.
|Aerial measurements
|Using GPS maps, easily determine an estimate for how large a roof is so you quickly put together a bid.
|Proposal management
|Puts all of your bids in one place so you can track their status.
Roofing and siding software programs will include most of the standard features associated with construction management software. These features include scheduling, customer relationship management (CRM), bid estimating and takeoff, document management, and accounting. Although most of these features are available through any construction management software, there are major advantages to selecting a top-rated program that is designed specifically for the roofing and/or siding sub-specialties.
The main advantage to a roofing- or siding-specific program is that it includes products and vendor/subcontractor information pertaining to that particular niche. For example, the inventory, accounting, and ordering systems will include roofing product names, pictures, and prices. Some even integrate with manufacturer systems and catalogues (e.g., CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, ELK Roofing, Simonton EPOPS, and Ellison Window Wizard) to make product ordering that much easier. They'll also include all the default subcontractor categories you might need.
The bottom line: The less time you spend customizing the system to your niche, the more time you have to focus on profit-generating tasks.
Software for roofing and siding contractors is typically priced one of two ways: subscription pricing and perpetual license pricing.
Subscription pricing. You pay a monthly fee to use the software. It can be a flat fee, or depending on the vendor can be variable and tied to the volume of work you are doing. In some cases the subscription fee can also be assessed by how large your company is.
Perpetual license. You pay one large fee up front and own the software in perpetuity. The fee can also be determined by the size of your business or the estimated volume of work your company does. However, keep in mind you will still often have to pay additional fees for maintenance, support and upgrades. You can expect to have to replace or upgrade perpetually licensed software every five years or so.
Software for roofing and siding contractors is typically deployed one of two ways: cloud-based and on-premise.
With cloud-based software, it is accessed through a web browser or via a mobile app. The software itself is hosted on the company's servers and can require an internet connection or mobile data service to access. The trend these days is toward cloud-based software, but many vendors still offer on-premise software.
On-premise software, on the other hand, is installed locally on your company's own computers or servers. One downside to on-premise software is that there might not be an ability to use it on mobile smart devices if the vendor does not offer a companion mobile application.
There are a number of programs that a roofer or siding contracting company could use to increase their office efficiency. Some of these will be fully integrated suites designed for large companies working with multiple vendors and subcontractors; others will be best-of-breed solutions that are geared specifically for this niche market. The number one factor in evaluating these systems is identifying your top needs.
Specific questions to ask when selecting software might include:
Our service is simple and 100% free to customers like you because software vendors pay us when we connect them with quality leads. You save time and get great advice. Vendors get great referrals. It's a win for everyone!

D. At all relevant times, Porush was associated with a broker-dealer registered with the Commission.
In light of the foregoing, it is in the public interest to impose the sanctions specified in the Offer submitted by Porush.
ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED that Daniel M. Porush be, and hereby is, barred from association with any broker or dealer.
By the Commission.

Monday Morning Manager: Week 25
This Week: KC (9/24-27); at Min (9/28-30)
So, What Happened?
Just another bob and weave ride on the choppy waters inside the Good Ship Tiger Pop.
That's what this team does to you: raises and lowers your hopes like a school flag.
The Tigers fell three games back on Monday after suspect (and MMM is being kind) defense doomed them in a makeup game in Chicago. That was followed by two straight wins over the surprising Oakland A's, which got people thinking that the Tigers weren't dead. But then the Tigers lost Thursday. Then Friday's game was rained out, then the Tigers drilled the Twins on Saturday. As the White Sox were being broomed by the Angels, the Tigers then dropped a day-night DH to the Twins on Sunday, the second loss of which was another bi-product of shoddy glove work.
Whew! MMM needs to catch his breath.
Such is the AL Central race that the White Sox can be on a five-game losing streak yet still lead the division by a game this morning. Chicago's last win was over the Tigers last Monday.
To bastardize the late Casey Stengel's words, "Can't anybody here win this thing?"
MMM still thinks the Tigers can pull this out. They finish the season with 10 games with the Kansas City Royals and Minnesota Twins. Even though both those teams have been doing a great job playing spoiler this month, MMM will take that competition for the final ten games.
Yet MMM isn't too naive to ignore the possibility that the Tigers' defense may ultimately be their undoing. The inability to make the routine plays has killed them this year, especially in September, a month in which the Tigers are 10-11 so far.
The double play ball this season causes every Tigers fan, MMM included, to hold his or her breath.
In the name of Trammell and Whitaker, what's the deal with being unable to turn a stinking double play?
Miguel Cabrera continued his assault on the Triple Crown, and in the process MMM hopes he is silencing those folks who would vote for Mike Trout as league MVP. For more on that race, read THIS.
Max Scherzer gave all of us a scare when he left Tuesday's game against the A's after two innings with a "dead shoulder." An MRI proved negative, and Max made his next start on Sunday, as scheduled.
Hero of the Week
MMM is thinking of changing this section to "Miggy of the Week."
It's getting ho-hum, but MMM is going with Cabrera yet again.
How can you not? Cabrera is playing like he's on a mission, like he wants to win the Triple Crown, the MVP, the Silver Slugger, the Player of the Year, and heck, maybe even the Cy Young for all we know.
MMM is kidding about that last one...sorta.
Cabrera's onslaught continued last week: 9-for-26, 4 2B, 9 R, 4 HR, 10 RBI.
It's getting ridiculous now, Cabrera's beastiology. The man is playing as if possessed, like he is single-handedly trying to will the team into the playoffs.
Cabrera is simply the best player in baseball. If he wins the Triple Crown (he's tied in HR and leads in BA and RBI) for the first time in 45 years, his place in the game must be in cement.
And in that cement will be the letters M-V-P.
Goat of the Week
When the Tigers traded for 2B Omar Infante in late-July, MMM was thrilled. The deal included starter Anibal Sanchez, and it looked like the Tigers had killed two birds with one trade. Infante was going to shore up second base, right?
Not so fast.
Infante's bizarre degradation in defense has been dogging the Tigers all month. One night after the other, it seems, Infante is booting a ball or making a bad throw or is unable to complete a double play. And it seems that every mistake he makes is magnified by runs scoring as a result.
You can't hide your second baseman, and when things are going bad defensively, the ball seems to find that struggling defender. The ball is finding Infante, who is ruling second base for the Tigers with an iron mitt.
MMM doesn't care to list all of Infante's foibles. Just suffice it to say that MMM could have made Infante the GotW a few other times but didn't. This week, Omar isn't getting a pass.
Under the Microscope
Usually, UtM is reserved for the negative. Whether it's an injury or a player's suspect performance, MMM doesn't really use this space for anything terribly positive.
Until this week.
With the season entering its final full week, MMM must put Miguel Cabrera UtM because of his run at the Triple Crown. This is like a pitcher going for a no-hitter; you keep an eye on his performance specifically, and simultaneously hope your team scores enough runs to win the game.
We should all hope the Tigers win enough games to capture the AL Central, while also rooting for Cabrera to capture the first Triple Crown since Carl Yastrzemski did it for Boston in 1967. And Yaz tied for the home run title that year; Cabrera could win all three legs of the Crown outright.
MMM is placing Cabrera UtM, knowing full well that Miggy doesn't shrink from the spotlight.
Upcoming: Royals, Twins
As MMM indicated above, the Royals and Twins have done a marvelous job of playing spoilers in the AL Central "race."
Both teams have beaten the snot out of the White Sox and Tigers in recent weeks, trying their darndest to help Chicago and Detroit in the process. The help has been sometimes accepted, but most time not.
Kansas City comes to CoPa for four games this week, then the Tigers visit the Twins for three.
At home, the Royals have swept the Tigers and White Sox over the past month.
MMM declares: 3-1 vs. the Royals is a must---nothing less will do in order to apply increasing pressure on the White Sox, who have the Indians (3 games) and Rays (4) this week.
No fancy-shmancy scouting reports here. Just go out and beat these teams, for goodness sake.
Pitchers this week, in order: (vs. KC) Justin Verlander; Anibal Sanchez; Rick Porcello; Doug Fister; (at Min) Max Scherzer; Verlander; Sanchez.
Enjoy the heat in this AL Central kitchen.
That's all for this week's MMM. See you next week!

There is one key difference this year -- the expiration of the Bush-era tax cuts beginning in January. Congress still has the power to extend those tax cuts before the end of the year, or they can modify them, or they can do nothing.
If Congress does nothing and the tax cuts expire as the law is presently written, there are several things individuals and businesses can do to minimize taxes.
1. Accelerate Capital Gains: In conventional tax planning, paying taxes on income is deferred as long as possible. But in certain circumstances, such as the pending expiration of the tax cuts, it's wise to accelerate payments rather than defer them. That's because long-term capital gains tax rates are scheduled to increase from 15 to 20 percent in 2013. So, for those with appreciated stocks who are thinking of unloading, sell them and accelerate those tax payments into 2012.
Similarly, for those with stock or mutual fund loss to sell, they are better off waiting until next year when capital gain rates are scheduled to rise another five percent.
2. Accelerate Income: Beginning next January, high-income earners ($200,000 for individuals, $250,000 for couples filing jointly) will incur an additional 3.8 percent Medicare surtax on all or part of their "net investment income." This includes income from dividends, interest, capital gains, annuities, royalties and rents, etc. This is in addition to an increase in top tax rates from 35 to almost 40 percent.
The best way to remedy this is to claim that income this year rather than next. For those expecting bonuses, ask for it this year. Individuals owning a business should make some 2013 payments to themselves in 2012.
3. Claim Itemized Deductions this Year: Taxpayers will be able to claim the full amount of their itemized deductions and personal exemptions through 2012, regardless of their adjusted gross income. But in 2013, these deductions revert to their original 'phase-out' levels, which will negatively impact high-income earners. A few deductions subject for phase out include taxes, interest, and charitable contributions. Bottom line: Claim exemptions and deductions in 2012.
4. Accelerate Depreciation of New Fixed Assets
For those who own a business, accelerate depreciation of new fixed assets.
Although usually depreciated over several years, business owners can purchase computers, software, furniture and other office equipment this year and immediately deduct their cost rather than writing them off over the life of those assets in say five years. Business owners should do this in 2012 because these opportunities are limited next year.
Sometime between the November elections and the end of the year, Congress will have a chance to extend the Bush-era tax cuts. If they don't, follow the advice above.
If they do -- and even if they don't -- it's a good idea to consult with a tax advisor for the best course of action for the particular

June 2, 2011 - WASHINGTON - As of today all PDF versions of books published by the National Academies Press will be downloadable to anyone free of charge. This includes a current catalog of more than 4,000 books plus future reports produced by the Press. The mission of the National Academies Press (NAP) -- publisher for the National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, Institute of Medicine, and National Research Council -- is to disseminate the institutions' content as widely as possible while maintaining financial sustainability. To that end, NAP began offering free content online in 1994. Before today's announcement, all PDFs were free to download in developing countries, and 65 percent of them were available for free to any user.
"Our business model has evolved so that it is now financially viable to put this content out to the entire world for free," said Barbara Kline Pope, executive director for the National Academies Press. "This is a wonderful opportunity to make a positive impact by more effectively sharing our knowledge and analyses."
Based on the performance of NAP's current free PDFs, projections suggest that this change will enhance dissemination of PDF reports from about 700,000 downloads per year to more than 3 million by 2013.
Printed books will continue to be available for purchase through the NAP website and traditional channels. The free PDFs are available exclusively from the NAP's website, http://www.nap.edu/, and remain subject to copyright laws. PDF versions exist for the vast majority of NAP books. Exceptions include some books that were published before the advent of PDFs; books from the Joseph Henry Press imprint; and in cases where contractually prohibited, such as reference books in the Nutrient Requirements of Domestic Animals series.
The mission of the Koshland Science Museum is to engage the general public in current issues that impact their lives. The museum's state-of-the-art exhibits, public events, and educational programs provide information that stimulates discussion and provides insight into how science supports decision-making.

Let your Kids make this neat Penny Frame for their room or to give as a gift.. This is an easy craft to make for Dad that he is sure to love. The frame can be made to sit on Dads desk or hang on Dads wall. A great Fathers Day gift.
Items needed:
- Small sturdy box, such as a jewelry box or greeting card box. If you only have the lid or bottom, this can work also. In lieu of a box, use an existing small, old frame and jazz it up with pennies.
- Copper Pennies
- All purpose glue
- Brown paint, nontoxic poster paint or acrylic
- Brush
- Scissors or cutter (to be used by adult to cut opening in box)
- Wire or paper clip, if frame will be hung
- Masking tape
- Starting with the box, cut an opening in the center area large enough for the photo you plan to use. This step should be done by the adult that is overseeing the project.
- Paint the top and sides of the box frame. If you will be using the box bottom, as we suggest, then make sure any part that will be visible is painted also. Let this dry before going to the next step.
- Start gluing the pennies to the topside of the frame, positioning your pennies around the opening first. We just put a drop of glue where we wanted the penny to go and then placed the penny onto the glue, pressing down. Work your way out to the edge of the frame, going only to the edge or slightly over.
- In order to even out the look of the pennies, now glue some random pennies on top of the first layer of pennies. You won't need too many, but cover up any areas that have gaps or that look like they might need another penny.
- Don't go overboard with the pennies, as each one adds a little more weight. Set your frame on an object that fits into the inside of your frame to dry, so that your frame will not warp when drying.
- Use masking tape to position your photo to the inside of the frame. Only use masking tape, as this enables the photo to be removed, without damage, at a later date, if needed.
- If frame will be hung, you can now poke two holes into the upper, center section, using the tip of a pen. Insert wire through the holes, and on the backside and twist together. You can also use a paper clip for a hanger.
- If frame will be used on a desk, cut a rectangular piece of cardboard, about 2 inches wide (and about 1 1/2 inches shorter than the height of your frame) Tape this to the back (center top) to act as a stand.
- Dad will now have a "secret frame" that he can open and hide some $.

John David Kent
Rocker turned Red Dirt singer/songwriter John David Kent has an exceptional knowledge and ability when it comes to music. He plays several instruments, sings and writes songs, and certainly knows his way around a recording studio. It's fair to say that Kent is a very well-rounded musical talent.
Along with his band, their three-part harmonies and fresh twists on sounds that draw comparisons to the musical styles of Waylon Jennings and Credence Clearwater Revival. Kent's songs instantly feel both unique and familiar. As a result, the single 'My Girl' garnered immediate attention after the video became a recent "Pick of the Week" on CMT.com and was added to CMT's Pure Country rotation.
Kent's decision to take his music into the direction more rooted in country was an organic one. As a young child, Kent's parents introduced him to a diverse array of music. He started playing drums at the age of 4 and he vividly remembers being drawn to the earthy stylings of musicians like John Denver, Willie Nelson and the Eagles. "When I…settled down with my family back in Texas, a lot of the songs I was writing were subconsciously coming out with a southern flavor. I like taking the elements of traditional rock and country and blurring the lines. It's a very natural evolution for me."
Whiskey Myers
Whiskey Myers broke into the Texas music scene with their 2008 CD 'Road of Life'. Almost immediately, fans and music critics could only wonder what these five guys were capable of. The raw talent shown on the debut album turned heads, and had everybody asking 'who are these guys'? It seemed they were constantly on the road, playing everywhere from Corpus Christi to Chicago, and earning fans with each passing show.
Despite the fact that they are not traditional country, or even red dirt band, Whiskey Myers released three songs to Texas radio from their debut album, and all three were hits. One can only imagine the expectations for the band's follow-up CD, 'Firewater'.
Well, Whiskey Myers – a band of boyhood friends from East Texas – exceeded everybody's expectations but their own, with a more refined, focused, and more mature sound. Fans of 'Road of Life' were treated to more of the same long, impressive, epic southern rock tunes that seemed as though they would go on forever (and that's what you wanted). But 'Firewater' has more depth. The quality of the songs on the sophomore CD are equal to the quality of the band's live show, which is an impressive feat. Songs like 'Ballad of a Southern Man', 'Anna Marie', and 'Bar, Guitar and a Honky Tonk Crowd' are all proof of Whiskey Myers' musical growth.
While a lot of Texas music critics and fans may be wondering 'what'll they come up with next'?, I have to encourage you to just enjoy what you're witnessing. Bands as talented as Whiskey Myers don't come along every day, so when they come to your town and play, just be sure you're in the crowd and appreciate just how good these guys are.

Reported Liverpool and Newcastle United target Daniel Sturridge has 15 days to prove himself on Chelsea's pre-season tour of Asia according to FourFourTwo.com.
The 21-year-old striker impressed during a four-month loan spell at Bolton Wanderers last season, scoring eight goals in twelve matches for the Trotters.
But having grown frustrated at a lack of first-team opportunities at Stamford Bridge, Sturridge's Chelsea career hangs in the balance having found the net just nine times in 41 appearances for the Blues.
However, newly appointed manager Andre Villas-Boas has thrown the England U21 international a lifeline to determine whether or not he will remain in west London next season.
"This is one of the decisions we have to take," Villas-Boas explained to The Sun. "Daniel is a very, very interesting player with a tremendous future and is highly regarded by myself.
"I have 15 days in Asia to make the best decision and I need those four games to continue to assess."
Sturridge's availability will likely attract the attention of Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish who is a known admirer of the player's talent.
Having already been busy in the summer transfer window with the acquisition of Jordan Henderson, Charlie Adam, Stewart Downing and Alexander Doni, the Reds may look to add another striker to their Anfield ranks before drawing a line under business ahead of the new campaign.
Magpies boss Alan Pardew could provide Liverpool with competition for Sturridge's signature as Newcastle themselves are still on the look-out for a long-term replacement for Andy Carroll - who swapped St James' Park for Anfield in the January transfer window.
Chelsea's tour of the Far East kicks off with a game against a Malaysia XI on Thursday, where Sturridge could be given his chance to prove he has what it takes to succeed at Stamford Bridge, while Liverpool and Newcastle wait patiently in the wings for any developments over a potential transfer.

Difference between revisions of "Akhaltsikhe"
Revision as of 20:32, 7 June 2011
Akhaltsikhe (Georgian: ახალციხე, "New Fortress") is a small city of about 50,000 and the capital of Samtskhe-Javakheti. The city has been around for at least 800 years, and was a regional administrative center for the Ottomans from the sixteenth century up to the Russo-Turkish War. Until the twentieth century Akhaltsikhe was majority Armenian, but today, unlike most of the province, it is majority Georgian. It's a rather sleepy town, but its Old City is worth a visit, and it's a great base for exploring the surrounding areas, including Sapara Monastery and Khertvisi Fortress in the immediate vicinity.
Get in
By car/marshrutka
The principal route to Akhaltsikhe runs from Georgia's main East-West highway (E60) at the spur in Khashuri leading to Borjomi. Marshrutkas run to Akhaltsikhe's main market/bus station from Tbilisi's Didube market, as well as from the bus stations in Kutaisi and Khashuri. Coming from Kutaisi or Tbilisi, it's best to catch your ride early in the morning if you want to avoid finding another marshrutka upon arrival in Khashuri. But it's not terribly difficult to catch a marshrutka going between Akhaltsikhe and Khashuri before dinner time.
By train
Akhaltsikhe is connected to the main Batumi–Tbilisi–Baku railroad by a spur through Borjomi ending in Akhaltsikhe itself. You should be able to find a train going this way once daily from the Batumi, Kutaisi, and Tbilisi train stations.

Stacey Koon -- LAPD Cop in Rodney King Beating Now Drives a Limo
Stacey Koon-- the former LAPD sergeant who did prison time for zapping Rodney King with a taser -- has changed careers -- he's now driving a limo.
An independent photog got Koon driving a limo for Music Express, the high-end private transport company. Koon, who was leaving LAX, scoffed at the photog, who asked if he had a reaction to Rodney King's death.
Koon was acquitted in the Simi Valley beating trial back in 1992 -- and the acquittal triggered the L.A. riots. He was later convicted in federal court of civil rights violations and served 30 months in prison.
The beating occurred nearly 22 years ago. So we gotta ask.

Always better to do a little research before getting all riled up.
To the editor:
Always better to do a little research before getting all riled up. The front page article in the Leavenworth Times about the guest tax sparked a tone of taxation without representation, for the guests. But, after talking with city officials, reading the Kansas Constitution Article, and relevant KSAs on the guest tax and its procedural implementation and, most importantly, the director of the beneficiary, Convention & Visitors Bureau, I have found a new way to look at this tax.
Being associated with the Chamber of Commerce does not imply redistribution of this tax to those participants in the Chamber. Cities are bunches of businesses, and their rewards are in the presence of the guests attracted by the CVB to the city as a whole. Since the guests reap the benefits of the tax in the tourism and conventions provided, they are not being duped.
As every association, group, business has its own interests, so does Leavenworth which is indirectly me or us, the Leavenworth citizen. I want to thank those officials who enlightened me. When things go awry in government or business it is probably attributed to communication.

If the folks behind Kane & Lynch 2 should be sued, they should be sued for something other than the "vicious vilifying" of the Chinese people. And they should be sued for a lot more than $US1585 — that figure would represent no more than 27 copies of the title sold at full retail price here and I'm certain the actual victims of the game's nausea-inducing shaky-cam and the nauseating characters depicted by it, number far more than that.
Ridiculous lawsuits are a common news topic in video games, maybe because the medium and the discussion has such a heavy online component, where outrage spreads fast and embarrassments can be permanently recorded with ease.
But even as gamers' outrage mounts, much of it an understandable reaction to the consumer's shrinking say in a changing marketplace, nearly every public response to every lawsuit against the industry matches the one most had — rightfully so — to the claim against Kane & Lynch 2, a forgettable sequel-for-the-sake-of-a-sequel from nearly two years ago: Shut the hell up.
Shut the hell up, China, because Kane & Lynch 2 didn't speak well of video games either. Shut the hell up, dude who sued Ubisoft, alleging his story was stolen by Assassin's Creed. Definitely shut the hell up, Zynga, claiming you owns anything with the suffix "ville." The popular reaction to all of these is the same. They come to the court of public opinon bearing a heavy presumption against their validity. Any validity.
It's how we've been conditioned, from reading subjects other than entertainment. Seriously, when is the last time you read the story of a civil judgment for the plaintiff and said to yourself, "Good. I'm glad they got theirs." The cause isn't helped by oleaginous creatures like John Edwards, a lawyer who took on these cases — with some very sympathetic clients, mind you — before he was elected to the US Senate, or by the constant bombardment of ambulance-chasing advertisements on 24-hour news networks or sports radio.
Yet personal injury is a very real thing. The woman in the infamous McDonald's hot coffee case suffered — let's not stuff around here — third degree burns on her crotch. She needed a goddamn skin graft. That's not ow-my-neck after getting tapped on the bumper. And yet, for a culture that likes to puff up in such a screw-the-man posture in Internet comments and Facebook posts, as soon as someone decides to actually sue the man, then they're a whiner or, worse, trying to hit the lottery.
About the most sympathy you'll see is when EA decided to sue the maker of a helicopter that appeared in Battlefield. Gamers really didn't know who to tell to go fuck themselves — EA, a long-standing monolithic symbol of oppression, or a private company lawyering up to preserve its creative ownership of a vehicle built with taxpayer money. And that's a huge company taking on a huge company.
This isn't to suggest that the claim originating in China, the lawsuit against Assassin's Creed or, most risibly, Paul Christoforo, of the infamous "Ocean Marketting" fiasco, have cases worth respecting, to use three very recent examples.
But it does make me wonder what, if any, legal action would garner the sympathy of the public.

SPRING CITY - A committee of Spring City residents known as the Spring City Veterans Memorial Association is working to ensure veterans of Spring City are not forgotten or ignored. With the support of city government and veteran organizations, a veterans' memorial and monument is being planned and pursued.
The memorial and granite monument to be located on the corner of 100 East and Center Street near the community center will be "In honor of the brave men and courageous women of Spring City who served in the Armed Forces of the Territory of Utah and The United States of America."
Donations for this important work are being accepted. Donations can be sent to Spring City Veterans Memorial Association, PO Box 126, Spring City, UT, 84662; or visit their Facebook page for more contact information.
The association also needs help identifying and verifying names of past and present Spring City Veterans and raising funds for this project. Additional specific information will soon be released to facilitate contributions and submitting names.
Spring City is recognized for its rich pioneer history and heritage, primarily through the preservation and restoration of pioneer era buildings and architecture. Great effort has taken place over the last fifty years by individuals and community involvement to ensure that heritage is not forgotten.
One aspect of Spring City's heritage that began even before settlement and continues today is the heritage of brave men and women who have served in the defense of country, state and community through military service.
Nearly 450 individuals have been identified. There are and will be more identified. This is a heritage of past, present, and future. Unfortunately this history and heritage has been mostly ignored.
"OUR DEBT OF GRATITUDE TO THE HEROIC MEN AND VALIANT WOMEN IN THE SERVICE OF OUR COUNTRY CAN NEVER BE REPAID. THEY HAVE EARNED OUR UNDYING GRATITUDE. AMERICA WILL NEVER FORGET THEIR SACRIFICE." --President Harry S. Truman
