About once a month we run into the media focusing on themselves or on a fad rather than on a news item. This was such a time. So today we present…
Those 'Nefarious'
Russians Journalists
The media is incestuous.
Winner: Obvious Statement of the Year!
Sometimes our hapless heuristics are done in by media laziness.
Yesterday we covered the Chinese Roll-Eyes meme. And we loved it. That was cool. It broke an internet, it was human, and everyone had a different but valid take.
Today we have crap. But a lot of it.
The problem is that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said, "These targeted sanctions are a part of a broader effort to address the ongoing nefarious attacks emanating from Russia."
Why is this a problem? Because…
- It's quotable
- Reporters like the word "nefarious"
Which resulted in the phrase "nefarious attacks" pegging our heuristics, despite there being no news there. (Yes, Russia is compromising elections and killing people, but before you cast stones… look at crime in Detroit.)
For an illustration of how bad this is, consider Politico, who just today quoted that statement twice and happily used the newly-discovered word a third time:
- U.S. imposes new sanctions on Russian entities over 2016 election meddling
- Power Briefing: What Bill Gates will talk about with Trump at their afternoon meeting
- Trump Is Partly Right About Our Trade Deals. He's Wrong About How to Fix Them.
Note that only one of these really required the word, in the quote context. And while we find Politico highly biased to the point of satire, the writing is usually professional.
The point is, the media piles on with a word – in this case, "nefarious" – and over-uses it. And our heuristics, especially the N-Grams, are befuddled.
For More…
Just in case you care… Why did our heuristics get confused?
Because this quote (and word) were attached to so many different topics:
- The Trump Administration sanctioning Russia for interfering with the election (redux)(redux2)
- The Skripal assassination attempt in London
- How Putin threatens the West (that's us… and the U.S.)
- Accusations that Russia hacked the energy grid (redux)
- Russian spies (and trolls… gotta love the "trolls" use) over cyberattacks
- Trade Deals
Grunion Run
And one odd side effect of the media going haywire on us is… the next most relevant topic tends to be unexpected.
Today it was… a Grunion Run.
Yeah, we still have some fine-tuna-ing to do.
The Grunion, a smelt-like fish in Southern California, are "running." Grunion are a bit like turtles in that they mate and lay on the beach, in mass quantity, for a short period of time.
They're edible, but that really misses the experience, which is really the shoreline coming alive with wriggly little fish.
And for the rest?
Not everyone lives in Southern California. (We don't either now.) So what else is going on?
(You're dyin' for the Bueller clip, right? )
El Pollo Loco has introduced a new logo and brought back a regional favorite.
Can we get a "WTF!"?
El Pollo Loco is a Southern California fast food outlet with rotisserie chicken and healthy sides. They've been around for decades, and it is really tasty. Like, even better than Costco Baked Chicken fresh. But it's regional.
So why did it hit?
- They changed their logo. Yeah, tiny stuff, but it's Southern California, which is like the center of the universe for those with formica-depth. It's part of their "Vision" design.
(In case it's not clear, the one on the right is the new one.)
- They brought back tostadas.
- They beat their earnings estimate by 10%
That last one sounds kind-of important, but how did the others make this relevant?
El Pollo Loco is used as an example of "losing focus", in their misguided (which is after-the-fact speak for "screw-up") attempt to add steak to their menu eight years ago. In case you're not bilingual (it's okay; there's a joke about that), "El Pollo Loco" means "The Crazy Chicken." No cows allowed.
So why did this make our list? Because Southern California (and New York) are media centers and this impacted SoCal. After the incestuous "nefarious" propagation, this was next.

The race question is in many senses the big elephant in the room. An issue so utterly diluted in recent decades thanks to lazy, unfounded slurs dished out by the regressive left to anyone with (heaven forbid) concerns over immigration, foreign aid, or the 'migrant crisis'.
Racism, in the true sense of the word, is despicable whichever direction it is aimed in. The fact that the colour of someone's skin should dictate how other people are treated is a stain on the human race yet it is an uncomfortable reality even today.
We've come a long way since Britain's post-war era where signs reading 'No Irish, no blacks, no dogs' adorned B&B windows and public houses. In many ways times have changed as evidenced by Barack Obama becoming the first black president to reach the White House or the KKK and National Front falling into relative obscurity.

Jesus is: Our Advocate
My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 1 John 2:1
We see a powerful picture of Christ as our Advocate in Zechariah chapter three. Joshua, the high priest, is standing before the Angel of the Lord (the pre-incarnate Christ), and Satan standing ready to accuse. Joshua is wearing filthy garments, an illustration of the sin of God's people. Things seem quite dismal as Satan makes his case against Joshua.
Though Joshua should have been guilty before God, there was an Advocate there to intercede on his behalf. Satan accuses, and rightly so, but Joshua's filthy clothes (representing sin) are taken away. The Lord rejects Satan's accusations. Instead, Joshua is clothed in white garments. In the Lord's eyes, he is clean and holy. No accusation made against him can stand.
The same one who interceded on Joshua's behalf is now our Advocate. Christ was made lower than the angels and died a shameful death to redeem us. Now He stands, risen and glorified, as our Advocate, having paid the highest price for our clean garments. It is His righteousness that makes it possible for us to live holy unto the Lord.
And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world. 1 John 2:2
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1

Dr Rashad Khalifa produced a video when he was alive which is still in circulation on YouTube, in which he suggested that Satan is the King of Chaos. All that which is bad happening in this world is achieved by Satan and his descendants.
Today we will discuss this issue and confirm or deny this suggestion based on facts obtained from the Quran.
A simple verse from Quran suggests that Satan is not responsible for destruction in this world;
[3:109] To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth, and all matters are controlled by GOD.
Satan and his descendants are like humans they cannot do anything without the Will of GOD. Observing the above verse we can already see that Satan is not responsible for Chaos on earth, and that all the destruction which comes to us it comes from GOD as a retribution for what we have done. This fact is consolidated further by various verses in the Quran;
[7:83] Consequently, we saved him and his family, but not his wife; she was with the doomed.
[7:84] We showered them with a certain shower; note the consequences for the guilty.
[7:133] Consequently, we sent upon them the flood, the locusts, the lice, the frogs, and the blood - profound signs. But they maintained their arrogance. They were evil people.
[21:69] We said, "O fire, be cool and safe for Abraham."
The Miracle of 19 can be used to clarify Quran. In this instance we need to confirm that all retribution comes from GOD based on the facts we have found in the Quran .i.e. the verses mentioned above.
To learn more about the Miracle of 19 please go to;
Relevance of Miracle of 19 Calculations
The first occurrence of the word "retribution" mentioned in the Quran is in (2:6-7);
[2:6-7] As for those who disbelieve, it is the same for them; whether you warn them, or not warn them, they cannot believe. GOD seals their minds and their hearing, and their eyes are veiled. They have incurred severe retribution (from GOD).
I have made extension to these verses where I have interpreted the word "retribution" to be "from GOD". The respective geometric value of "from GOD" or in Arabic "Min Allaha" is 90 & 66. When we add the verse numbers above with the chapter number above and the geometric values of "Min Allaha" we get a number complete multiple of 19. 2 + 6 + 7 + 66 + 90 = 171 = 19 x 9. This code confirms the fact that all retribution to us comes from GOD. The retribution includes what happens to us on Earth or what happens to us in the Hereafter all is instituted by GOD the Omnipotent.
So far we have gathered the verses from the Quran which suggest that GOD is the initiator of retribution, then we used Mathematical Miracle of 19 to confirm the fact that the "retribution" indeed is from GOD. Now we will look for some more evidence which suggest the same.
There are verses where GOD uses terms like avenge; the dictionary meaning of avenge is "inflict harm in return for wrong doing". Thus these verses are further proof of what we have established so far;
[3:4] before that, to guide the people, and He sent down the statute book. Those who disbelieve in GOD's revelations incur severe retribution. GOD is Almighty, Avenger.
[5:95] O you who believe, do not kill any game during pilgrimage. Anyone who kills any game on purpose, his fine shall be a number of livestock animals that is equivalent to the game animals he killed. The judgment shall be set by two equitable people among you. They shall make sure that the offerings reach the Ka`bah. Otherwise, he may expiate by feeding poor people, or by an equivalent fast to atone for his offense. GOD has pardoned past offenses. But if anyone returns to such an offense, GOD will avenge it. GOD is Almighty, Avenger.
[14:47] Do not think that GOD will ever break His promise to His messengers. GOD is Almighty, Avenger.
I believe for a believer it is sufficient to believe that all retribution comes from GOD, and that Satan has no power over anyone of us in order to punish us. The starvation in Africa and the Bribery in third world countries are all our own doing of which GOD is punishing these people. GOD knows what each one of us decided to do in the "Heavenly Feud" mentioned in;
[38:69] "I had no knowledge previously, about the feud in the High Society.
And according to His knowledge of the decisions we made in the High Society before the creation happened He puts us in the situations in which we are now.
All those children who are dying in Africa go to Paradise based on the fact that anyone who dies before the age of forty is not responsible for his deeds because at the age of forty GOD admits us as a Muslim or Submitter and is judged for his/her righteous works from then on;
[46:15] We enjoined the human being to honour his parents. His mother bore him arduously, gave birth to him arduously, and took intimate care of him for thirty months. When he reaches maturity, and reaches the age of forty, he should say, "My Lord, direct me to appreciate the blessings You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and to do the righteous works that please You. Let my children be righteous as well. I have repented to You; I am a submitter."
I believe the ultimate proof that all retribution comes from GOD is in the following verses where a GOD's servant is enlightening us of the fact discussed in this article. Indeed GOD's servant will only do what GOD allows him to do, therefore when he punishes than it is because God wants him to …
[18:83] They ask you about Zul-Qarnain. Say, "I will narrate to you some of his history."
[18:84] We granted him authority on earth, and provided him with all kinds of means.
[18:85] Then, he pursued one way.
[18:86] When he reached the far west, he found the sun setting in a vast ocean, and found people there. We said, "O Zul-Qarnain, you can rule as you wish; either punish, or be kind to them."
[18:87] He said, "As for those who transgress, we will punish them; then, when they return to their Lord, He will commit them to more retribution.
The other thing to think about is that if God can punish the disbelievers in the Hereafter than who can stop Him from punishing them on earth now;
[3:182] "This is the consequence of your own works." GOD is never unjust towards the people.
The other suggestion by Dr Rashad Khalifa in the same video is the categorising the "Test" of each one of us constituted by GOD and that if we pass all our tests we could lead a happy wealthy life. This suggestion is not entirely true, because when you see what happened to other messengers in the Quran you will see another picture appearing. Indeed Muhammad was tested throughout his life, Jacob had very unhappy life most of his life, only towards the end of his life he found Joseph and then Joseph went through lots of tests until late in his life he found happiness.
So the idea that you might have a short test after which you have a happy life is not true, indeed the test could last long time, only God knows when these tests are complete, each person has its own destiny written by God.
Never Question God's Wisdom
[21:23] He is never to be asked about anything He does, while all others are questioned.
Now let us look at the possibility of why Dr Rashad Khalifa required calling Satan the King of Chaos. The first port of call for this is Dr Rashad Khalifa's interpretation of the following verse;
Satan cannot cause destruction he merely ask humans to follow his steps
[2:168] O people, eat from the earth's products all that is lawful and good, and do not follow the steps of Satan; he is your most ardent enemy.
Satan cannot cause destruction he merely ask humans to follow his commands
[2:169] He only commands you to commit evil and vice, and to say about GOD what you do not know.
Satan cannot cause destruction he merely ask humans to follow his steps
[24:21] O you who believe, do not follow the steps of Satan. Anyone who follows the steps of Satan should know that he advocates evil and vice. If it were not for GOD's grace towards you, and His mercy, none of you would have been purified. But GOD purifies whomever He wills. GOD is Hearer, Knower.
Satan wants people to disbelieve and follow his expectations
[34:20] Satan found them readily fulfilling his expectations. They followed him, except a few believers.
Nowhere in the Quran has it been portrayed directly that Satan can cause destruction. It has always implied that he misleads people maybe through whispering to them or coming near to them and influence their decisions like a magician does or hypnotist does in making participants to behave in a certain way.
[23:97-98] Say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the whispers of the devils. "And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they come near me."
Indeed the only place where there is slightest hint of Satan causing destruction is in Dr Rashad Khalifa's interpretation of;
[2:30] Recall that your Lord said to the angels, "I am placing a representative (a temporary god) on Earth." They said, "Will You place therein one who will spread evil therein and shed blood, while we sing Your praises, glorify You, and uphold Your absolute authority?" He said, "I know what you do not know."
This interpretation of Satan as a temporary god very strongly contradicts the Quran by the following verses;
[21:21]Have they found gods on earth who can create?
[21:22]If there were in them other gods beside GOD there would have been chaos. Glory be to GOD; the Lord with absolute authority. He is high above their claims.
By definition above (21:21) one attribute of god is that he can create while Satan cannot, thus Satan is not god. (21:22) overwhelmingly points out that there are no gods besides GOD.
(2:30) Recall that your Lord said to the angels "I am placing a representative (a temporary representative) on Earth." They said "Will You place therein one who will spread evil therein and shed blood while we sing Your praises glorify You and uphold Your absolute authority?" He said "I know what you do not know."
*Missing words "a temporary representative" or Limumathal Muaqat their respective gv's are 640 & 546. 30 + 640 + 546 = 1216 = 64 x 19. The representative is Ibleese or Satan, gv 103. 103 + 30 = 133 = 7 x 19. The position is 7 "Disbelievers", thus Ibleese will represent the disbelievers, for believers God is more than sufficient. I tried all combinations of and all words for 'god' and 'a temporary' but none were multiple of 19 with this verse, this confirms categorically that Dr Rashad Khalifa's interpretation of "a temporary god" above has been superseded by Al-Muzzammil's interpretation validated by Mathematical Miracle of 19. **Al-Muzzammil
Since Dr Rashad Khalifa literally took the words … who will spread evil therein and shed blood… above to be true. And thus gave Satan status of god. However when we search for supporting argument for this understanding there is none. As we have seen above the bloodshed, the evil that Satan is spreading is by influencing the humans through whispering to them and coming near to them. Thus Satan is not god and he may be implied 'King of Chaos' but in literal sense he has no power over believers or disbeliever's except through his voice and influence for whoever is willing to listen to him.

The process of creating from raw materials the silicon ingots that serve as the basis for crystalline silicon solar technology is heavy, energy-intensive and slow-moving. This week a shuttered polysilicon factory in Norway took another step towards re-opening, but actual ramping of production is still months off.
In September 2015, the new parent company of REC Group, Bluestar Elkem, announced that it would look into re-opening a portion of a shuttered REC facility in Porsgrunn, Norway. The company said that it was interested in ingot production, and has conducted feasibility studies since that time.
Last Friday, Elkem made another announcement that it would re-open silicon ingot production at the facility, employing around 70 workers. The company expects production to begin production in the second half of 2015. But while offering this timeline, Elkem is also appealing for public R&D funding associated with the re-opening of the plant.
This project is associated with substantial risks and the costs of upgrading the factory equipment is expected to be several hundred million Norwegian kroner, notes Elkem Solar CEO Inge Grubben-Strømnes. We need politicians who see and value Norwegian industry and can support us in developing new, state of the art production technology and creating high-skilled jobs.
The Porsgrunn plant will create ingots using upgraded metallurgical-grade (UMG) silicon from another Elkem facility in Kristiansand, Norway. These ingots will in turn be sent to REC Groups integrated wafer, cell and module factory in Singapore.
This means that Elkem Solar will preside over processes throughout the entire chain from polysilicon to modules; however polysilicon expert Johannes Bernreuter, head of Bernreuter Research, says that he expects REC to mix the UMG polysilicon with higher-purity silicon from the Siemens process.
UMG currently only represents around 2% of the polysilicon consumed globally.

Positive Behavioral Support
is an essential tool for all caregivers of a person with Prader-Wili syndrome. It is best to implement positive behavioral strategies early in a child's life – even before behavioral challenges emerge. It is an important pro-active and preventative step to become familiar with and implement positive behavioral strategies.
School Issues
At times children with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) face challenges in the school environment. Whether it is monitoring food, managing transitions, or creating an effective relationship with school professional, ensuring an appropriate and effective learning environment is an essential part of parenting a child with PWS.
In-Patient Hospital and Travel Assistance Programs
On this page you will find links and information about available programs as well as information about medical transportation assistance programs should your loved one with PWS need to travel out of state for medical treatment.
Weight Management
Effective weight management is a crucial part of the care of a person with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) because obesity related complications are still the number one cause of death for people with PWS

Residential Placement
Our Family Support Program can assist with both finding and keeping an appropriate residential placement for a person with PWS. If you are looking for placement, we maintain a Provider Directory to help you explore options in your state.
Legal Issues
Encounters with law enforcement are particularly scary for people with PWS and their families. To help minimize these situations we recommend the following.
Family Concerns
A family living with a child with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) faces some unique challenges. Remember, if you reach a particularly tough point, you can always call a Family Support Counselor to vent and perhaps think through some new strategies and responses to your situation and at least know that you are not alone.
Effective Advocacy
Parents and caregivers are often called on to advocate for family members with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). The good news is advocacy skills can be learned. Remember, advocacy at its best, means to effectively persuade

End Of The American Dream
The American Dream Is Becoming A Nightmare And Life As We Know It Is About To Change
More than 25 million people live in the vicinity of North America's 2nd-highest volcano, and in recent weeks this volcano has been steadily rumbling and has been spewing out massive amounts of black smoke and ash. I have previously written about "the most dangerous mountain in the United States" (Mt. Rainier), but if the volcano that I am talking about today experiences a full-blown explosive eruption it could potentially be a cataclysmic event beyond what most of us would dare to imagine. Popocatepetl is an Aztec word that means "smoking mountain", and it is also the name of a giant volcano that sits approximately 50 miles away from Mexico City's 18 million residents. "Popo", as it is called by locals, was dormant for much of the 20th century, but it came back to life in 1994. And now all of this unusual activity in recent weeks has many wondering if a major eruption may be imminent.
Historians tell us that Popocatepetl had a dramatic impact on the ancient Aztecs. Giant mud flows produced by massive eruptions covered entire Aztec cities. In fact, some of these mud flows were so large that they buried entire pyramids in super-heated mud.
But we haven't witnessed anything like that in any of our lifetimes, so it is hard to even imagine devastation of that magnitude.
In addition to Mexico City's mammoth population, there are millions of others that live in the surrounding region. Overall, there are about 25 million people that live in the immediate vicinity of Popocatepetl. Thankfully, we haven't seen a major eruption of the volcano in modern times, but at some point that will change.
As most of you already know, Mexico sits on the "Ring of Fire" that stretches along the outer rim of the Pacific Ocean. Over the past couple of years seismic activity throughout this area has started to really heat up, and according to Volcano Discovery there are dozens of volcanoes associated with the Ring of Fire that have recently erupted.

Centrosomes consist of a pair of centrioles surrounded by a matrix of pericentriolar material that nucleates cytoplasmic microtubules. During G0/G1 of the cell cycle, centrioles are commonly modified to serve as basal bodies that organize cilia. These cilia (known as primary cilia), sense their environment and transmit signals to the cell nucleus. Other cells produce motile cilia that produce hydrodynamic force generating fluid flow. In the case of motile cilia and the basal bodies that organize them, we capitalize on the ciliated protist, Tetrahymena thermophila, to understand how centrioles and basal bodies assemble, organize at the cell surface and resist mechanical stress produced by ciliary beating. Centriole and basal body biogenesis and stabilization Centrioles and basal bodies must be assembled to resist mechanical forces from either the mitotic spindle or ciliary motility. Using Tetrahymena, we have identified molecules and structures that reinforce basal bodies against the forces produced by ciliary undulations. Although the triplet microtubules of the basal body are radially symmetrical, we find stabilizing microtubule post-translational modifications are asymmetrically localized to the side of the basal body that receives the most compressive force. We have also identified proteins (both asymmetric andsymmetric around the basal body) that promote resistance to ciliary mechanical force by facilitating linkages between triplet microtubules. Remarkably, tubulin post-translational modifications and stabilizing proteins can compensate for each other when one stabilization pathway is lost. We are now studying what establishes the asymmetric positioning of post-translational modifications and how the proteins we have identified promote triplet microtubule linkages. Basal body organization In addition to basal bodies resisting ciliary forces, they must also maintain their cellular position and orientation, and they must efficiently transmit ciliary forces to the cell. This requires a dynamic cortical cytoskeleton. Moreover, each individual basal body is polarized and positioned with respect to the cell's global geometry. Using quantitative live cell microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (EM), EM tomography, computational modeling, and genetics we are elucidating the mechanisms by which the cortical cytoskeleton influences and maintains basal body positioning and orientation in the face of large asymmetric forces produced by ciliary beating. Controlling centriole number We previously discovered that a short isoform of CEP135, a protein that when full-length promotes centriole duplication and stabilization, represses duplication. The short CEP135 isoform (CEP135mini) is a natural dominant negative whose levels are tightly regulated through the cell cycle. We hypothesize that the relative levels of full length and CEP135mini are important for maintenance of the normal homeostasis of centriole number that is altered in many cancer cells. Indeed, CEP135, but not CEP135mini, is upregulated in cancer. Our current studies aim to understand the mechanisms of RNA processing that control the relative levels of the CEP135 isoforms. Other proteins involved in the control of centriole duplication and function are also regulated by pre-mRNA processing and we are investigating RNA splicing factors responsible for this control. Moreover, we are exploring the mechanism by which CEP135mini represses centriole duplication. Centrosome and cilia dysfunction in Down syndrome Down syndrome is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21. Interestingly, there are clinical similarities between individuals with Down syndrome and those with ciliopathies (a class of genetic diseases that affect ciliary function), including cerebellar hypoplasia, craniofacial dysmorphology, and cardiac septal defects. Consistent with this, we discovered that trisomy 21 cells from individuals with DS have primary cilia defects. The gene encoding the major centrosome scaffolding protein, Pericentrin, is present on chromosome 21 and we find that elevated Pericentrin alone is sufficient to suppress cilia formation and cilia-dependent signaling. We are now exploring how Pericentrin levels affect cytoplasmic trafficking, primary cilia formation, ciliary signaling and centrosome function during mitosis. These studies shed light both on human disease and fundamental centrosomal processes. Latest Publications in PubMed Domenico F. Galati, Kelly D. Sullivan, Andrew T. Pham, Joaquin M.

(2.5 stars)
I received this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Even the tagline of this book is at war with it's concept: Steal the crown, save the kingdom. Dramatic, bold, and entirely unrelated to both the pitch and actual plot.
This was a book I asked for and was semi-surprised I'd received. It sounded interesting and the cover was gorgeous, but I didn't know what I was stepping into. The pitch is fantastic, and at first I thought I was getting into a solid 5, or 4.5, star book: the first 100 pages are slow moving, but also have fantastic writing, emotional beats, and story elements. Then the rest of the book happens.

text: Lower Utility Costs Here in Baltimore, and almost everywhere else across the country, we have a large supply of sunlight, and we don't have to pay money to get it. That's why a SunSource® Home Energy System can save you dollars on your electric bills. Plus, the system can grow with your energy needs. How does a solar energy system help lower utility costs? Solar modules convert energy from the sun into electricity that can be used in your home. Depending on the size and power of your system, you could generate enough energy to power a number of your appliances or potentially your whole home. If you look at a typical home's yearly utility costs, roughly half of the total amount of energy is used to power heating and cooling systems. Even if your solar panels are simply generating enough to power your heater and AC, your annual energy costs could still be cut in half because the energy used to power the HVAC systems was taken from the sun and not the utility grid. That alone is a significant saving! Many residential solar systems may actually generate enough electricity to power other devices in your home, also. These can include other appliances, lights, TVs and computers, and everything else you'd plug into an electrical socket. That means you'd be paying very little, if anything at all, in bills to your local utility company in Baltimore. If your system doesn't produce enough to cover the entire house, that's okay. Your system will be connected to the utility systems so you can use electricity from the grid when your SunSource isn't converting energy. Discover more about how solar energy systems work. ENERGY STAR® qualified The ENERGY STAR label is earned by products that have met U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines for energy efficiency. The Lennox® SunSource system has met these requirements and earned ENERGY STAR qualification. And when you use this solar system with other high-efficiency air conditioners and furnaces, you could see significantly lower utility costs. Questions on how solar products can help you save? Just call Quality Refrigeration Services in Baltimore at 410-690-4244 or schedule an appointment online.

Hi folks, I'm Bob Schrupp physical therapist
Brad Heineck, physical therapist Together we are the most famous physical therapists on the internet In our opinion of course, Bob Single best stretch and strengthening exercise for low back pain with stenosis And this is based on what you did with a real patient, right exactly and are you the real patient? I am but I've done it with other real patients as well Now if you want to get right to the stretches you can fast forward a few minutes, but it's really important I think to Understand the terms and you're gonna feel a lot better about just being diagnosed with it once you understand what it is Otherwise it's kind of scary so in other words we're going to talk a lot before we show the exercises Like we do But it's important, if you are new to our channel and you don't realize that's what we do Please take a second to subscribe to us. We provide videos on how to stay healthy fit pain-free We upload every day also go over to the Facebook and like us because Brad and I as children Were picked on a little bullied and we're trying to turn things around yeah, that's a lie by the way I just think these are the coolest glasses, he's been wearing these for years, a lot of people ask about them So we actually put them in our product list below, a lot of people comment about oh What are those glasses? They're great if you need cheaters. They're the best cheater I've ever and they're just wonderful, so where they sell them do they have like different strengths? Oh, yeah, those are 2.0 Okay, I used to have 1.5 five years ago. You know if you're over 45 You know how that goes, alright so stenosis. What is it Brad? Stenosis it sounds like oh my gosh I got stenosis, but literally what it means is Abnormal narrowing of a passage in the body you can have stenosis in your back you can have it in your Low back your neck you can have it in your arteries. So if your arteries start to clog up with plaque That's stenosis arterial stenosis and a lot of times the stenosis is really merely a product of aging, right it's like arthritis Isn't it quite often, I mean, so don't be panicked. I mean my guess is Brad that as you get older There's a large percentage of people who have stenosis and probably don't have pain right I mean It's just it's very very common, as the disks Shrink up a little bit as part of the aging process when you hits 50 60 or 70s there's stenosis going on It's just that it's not a problem right so It's not a big deal when you see your x-rays or your MRI and they talk about stenosis, You know it may or may not be an issue so should we talk specifically what causes a problem with stenosis? Well, which one are you talking about spinal or a little bit of foramenal? Well a little bit of both actually For example if you have stenosis oftentimes walking Becomes a problem the longer you walk you may have, if you have symptoms down one leg You may have foramenal stenosis on one side, if you have both legs becoming weak and tired or numb Then you may have central stenosis and central stenosis Generally a lot of times they call it shopping-cart syndrome sure because am I jumping ahead too far? Go ahead we're in tune. So a lot of time What it means is that you feel a lot better when you're bent forward a little bit, because when you lean on a shopping cart You're taking some of the pressure off your back And I see I mean as soon as someone says that That it's down both legs, and it feels better when they lean on the shopping cart. I'm like Stenosis right almost always is Another good example whether it's foramenal or Central is if you're working overhead becomes painful, pain cuz is consistent It goes down one or both legs and then when you sit everything feels better Everything feels immediate relief right a pretty good sign so when we say again Brad I don't think we pointed this out now so central would be Lonnie has a restraining order against us so we can only get within 10 feet of her so that's good so Central would be right here. That's down the spinal cord, right the whole spinal cord is being impinged Yeah, foraminal is the little holes on the side right yeah, and so every vertebra you have a foraminal Foramen or foraminal So and you can show the central one right on there And that gets narrowed up so when you extend or you stand or you walk it actually Pinches that main Canal where the spinal cord goes through and when you bend forward it kind of opens it a little bit so that's why The ligament also thickens and thins Alright, so let's get to the exercise It only took us five minutes. We only wasted five minutes of your time to get to the stretch That's a nice thing about YouTube you can go to the little button and move it around Okay, so now this is really a nice stretch anytime you do a stretch to open up that gap and you can do this And this can help Long-term as well, so it's not gonna feel good While you do this stretch, but it can help with other symptoms, maybe walking longer now This is old school not old school this kind of works Just simple double knee to chest can be helpful And if that feels good when you're doing it this next one is probably gonna feel even better Okay, so yeah in this instance We took a big towel and a sheet even and rolled it all up together, you have to roll it very tightly A roll like this one of these rollers, soft Density roller works the best, but if you don't have one of these You don't want to spend the money Go ahead and roll it up and give this a try, get one of these and if this works Then you're gonna want one of those because it's going to feel so good you're gonna put that roll Not on your belt line, it's gonna be below your belt line, so essentially it's gonna be on The sacrum, maybe we can show them, so the sacrum Is a triangle shaped bone right here, which is right here on me So I have it on the sacrum below And you know you're having it in the right place because when you bring your knees up You can just do one knee at a time or you could do two you're gonna feel immediate relief And it's actually gonna feel good. I have stenosis I have symptoms like we discussed, and I love this stretch, Brad had stenosis and spondylolisthesis This possibly could work for spondee too right, a lot of people with spondylolisthesis Do have a component of stenosis in there just as the way things work so You probably want to start with one leg first Yes, go to one leg first, and then you can try two And only do it if it feels better it probably will so I haven't done this exercise with my patients Brad So has everybody tolerated it okay? You find anybody that said no no? Well the problem with an older patient is to get in that position And you have to do it you can't do it on your bed very well It has to be done on a carpeted floor which means you have to get on the floor which is very problematic for some people That's the biggest problem as far as it not working, but if this does show Improvement this will work better yet You have to get the soft one if you get too hard when it's not that comfortable so the low density OPTP is one we like to use. Yeah, we got it in our list below Yeah, it's the blue one. Yeah now what I found with this is you know we can do the one knee Make sure you do both of them, and then this actually take the roller and I roll it away from me and I'm not gonna do it here on video, but I actually take my pants And I stretch it down so it goes on my skin, and I roll it away And it gives me a stretch, it pulls. It even feels better Bob. This is incredible It's almost like a little traction It is, so you put the roller against the skin And then push it away right there and gives you a little traction. I am in heaven right now Bob You know what I mean. Yeah, it just feels really good. It really does so that's the key right there now for strengthening we want to strengthen and bend The pelvis or the lumbar spine from the bottom down so that's what this does not we're not gonna Flex it this way we're gonna stretch it from here down just like those do, can you throw me the ball Bob? The best strengthening exercise is to flex that lumbar spine from the Hips down, which I think the best way to do it is with a ball because it puts your back in a neutral position automatically This takes the right sized ball a little bit of practice so you can grab ahold of it If you do it with shorts on so your skin is touching the ball and with a pair of shoes That the rubber edge digs into the ball makes a huge difference on how easy it is To get ahold of the ball now this Assuming if you have strong enough abdomen muscles will feel good as well. These are not easy though. I'm gonna say because I just started doing these Brad and I'm still They're difficult to do But if they're hard you grab your knees here, gonna get ahold of the ball And then help out, and this is one that'll take a little patience a little time But when you tighten up the muscles here in flex lumbar spine, that's gonna help open up that gap That stenosis and it's gonna help make it more of a permanent fix So that when you're walking you can start to walk farther, so you want to do the stretching and Then the strengthening and the repetitions You know the goal initially you can do some help, but you know try to do up to 10 And you can assist with your hands And then you know work to ten without and after doing these for a few weeks You want to get the 20, 30 and up to that number if you can because you want to get toned up for more I do 40 of them But I had been doing core workouts so, but again. Even though I had been doing core workouts already I found it difficult to do, a smaller ball works a little bit better This is a tough ball So the smaller ball will be easier particularly for a beginner, and you can use those further exercises as well so there you go There's that two exercises stretching strengthening for that low back stenosis spondylolisthesis but we haven't gotten up to the Broken heart? There you go. We can fix just about anything except for a broken heart. I caught him daydreaming. Yeah, thanks for watching

CAMBRIDGE — A fleet of 21 schooners of various sizes gathered in Cambridge Harbor this past weekend for the 10th annual Schooner Rendezvous. The biggest ships on hand were the Mystic Whaler from Connecticut, and the Lady Maryland.
"I am thrilled," said Jan Devlin, chair of the 2014 Cambridge Schooner Rendezvous. "We have the perfect weekend for our event — the captains tell me it's perfect sailing weather, so I'm looking forward to the day. This will probably be our biggest day in the past ten years."
The day was opened by rousing song from the Dorchester Chorus, with not a cloud in the sky and a nice little breeze blowing. Unfortunately, the breeze diminished during the afternoon, and the Parade of Sail — in which all the ships raise sail and move out into the Choptank — was a bit more leisurely than many would have liked.
12 crew members of the Vigilant Crew were on hand, demonstrating their arts to school kids on Friday, and to the bigger kids on Saturday.
The Vigilant Crew is a Baltimore-based education and living history group. "We're not doing a re-enactment, there's nothing really to re-enact," said a spokesman for the group. "We do maritime education based on the golden age of sail in early Colonial times."
The Vigilant Crew teaches folks about what life was like as a sailor on a tall ship in the long ago days. They teach and demonstrate ancient weapons, navigation and seamanship, and food and cooking; as in, what kinds of foods were carried on a ship, how they were preserved, and how they were prepared. There were of course cannon demonstrations as well, every now and then, just to keep you on your toes.
Vendors plied their wares at booths set up on Long Wharf, and hundreds of folks visited during the afternoon. Visitors got to see the boats up close, and to visit on board a historic ship like the Mystic Whaler was really a rare treat.
"This is a unique opportunity to see these majestic ships up close," said Jane Devlin, "and a time to celebrate and learn more about our maritime past, as well as our future possibilities as a waterfront town."

More on mapping AS/400 drives to Windows
Ken Barwicks tip works only if your AS/400 is on the same subnet as your PC. In many organizations it is not. You may want to try my tip.
1. Make sure your Win9X user profile is enabled on the AS/400.
2. Use OpNav to create a "share" of your AS/400. There can be shares of different directories, but still the use of files is limited to what your user profile can access. A sharename can be like: ROOTUPD for the whole AS/400, or HTTP for the HTTP-directory (if you have such an IFS directory.
3. In Map Network drive give a driveletter and a folder. The folder is specified with the IP-number (NOT THE NAME!) to your AS/400 and the sharename like 220.127.116.11rootupd.

With the recent explosion in neuroscience research now being applied to clinical populations like autism spectrum disorders, auditory processing disorders, motor speech disorders, language disorders in children, aphasia in adults, and neurocognitive disorders, knowledge of basic neuroanatomy and neurophysiology is essential. This online CEU course is for practicing clinicians who would like a quick review of neuroanatomy and an overview of newer approaches to neurophysiology for better understanding of the latest research applications to the world of the clinician.
The course covers basic components of the human nervous system with emphasis on the central nervous system and cerebrum as well as the physiology of neuronal connections. It then reviews neurodevelopment from the basics of prenatal development to the maturation of major fiber tracts and cortex. Finally it introduces the 3 C's — neuroscience principles of circuitry, coordination and chemistry — the new aspects of neuroscience that apply to understanding the disorders we work with clinically. Offered for 0.1 ASHA CEU – 1 contact hour.

"I enjoyed the overview of brain development and what happens when is really helpful for my work with preschool age kids. I liked the organization and specificity of the information provided." – B.S. (Oct. 2019)
"I appreciated going over the functioning of specific cortical areas related to speech and language and the illustrations and diagrams. I felt that too much was covered too fast. The presenter evidenced clear mastery of the material and made assumptions about the common background of the participants." – H.H.B. (Oct. 2019)
"Wonderful neurology review. I thought the course was great." – K.H. (Sept. 2019)
"It was a good refresher course for me. I liked the neurological development. It was very good but a little hard for me." – J.S. (Aug. 2019)

"I have been seeking for exactly this course for years. But the other neuro classes available were always a rehash of what I knew from grad achool. There has been so much neuroscience development, and this course focuses on that, providing me with the neuro updates that I knew were "out there" but wasn't equipped, on my own, to tease out of the volumes of recent research. Dr. Burns draws on her expertise to pull the new findings together and deliver that to the experienced clinician in a way that obviously respects experienced clinicians but also knows exactly what we need to know to come up to date in neuro. THE BEST CEU COURSE I HAVE HAD IN A LOOOOOOONNNNNNG TIME!!" – P.V. (Sept. 2018)
"It was a brief and thorough review and will prepare me to take the neuroscience course. Learning about how myelination occurs with experience was helpful. I can relate that to helping our clients use words, repeatedly." – H.B. (Aug. 2018)

text: In October of 2015 at 45 years old, I started exploring the world of serious strength training after years of either just exercising or training endurance. Along the way, I've been learning a lot about lifting heavy stuff, myths and stereotypes about women and strength, my beliefs about myself, and my faith. If you're curious about pure strength training, if you're looking for some practical fitness and life information, if you've ever felt like less than enough, if you're looking for a different connection to your faith, there's something here for you. "Getting Inspired" is my story of training pure strength, but it is also the story of facing some of my long held ideas about myself. "Getting Practical" addresses some of the issues that concern athletes, women in particular, and some of the life lessons that strength training offers beyond the weight room. "Getting Connected" is a place to share stories of strength, both in the weight room and in life. "Keeping Faith" is the underlying story of how training strength also helped me deepen my faith life. Whether you exercise, train, or neither, I hope you find a community of encouragement and strength here.
