Our paths are seldom obvious to us;
We step blindly or by instinct alone.
What once was sure and clearly in focus,
Has become dimly seen, almost unknown.
Pathways Dimly Seen by @jerrytsuseer discusses change and the ways of life with an aabb rhyme scheme, metaphor, and juxtaposition.
It is fragile:
Delicate as a freshly spun web,
But with the might to carry legions.
Where You Breathe by @aislingcronin is a gorgeous and brief piece inspired by the prompt 'where hope lives'.
In the land
of milk and honey
where we're
Coming Up Strong by @sima369 makes fantastic use of negative space to deliver a positive message.
"drink this tonic," she said,
"It will require blood.
A drip from your heart.
A tear from the Flood.
Phantom Tonic by @amethystmidnight is such a strong piece, and I love her original art that goes along with it.
At 10 years old,
Love was my mother's eyes
It was tucked away in her radiant smile
The curves of her melanin face
Giving in to the simple joys in life.
Love's Changing Faces by @tezmel explores how love changes over the course of a person's life.

Firing up the 'cue for Labor Day? Barbecuing does not have to be strictly about hot dogs and hamburgers. We think you can class and sass it up for the diva inside you, whether you are entertaining for girls, couples, or family. We have some ideas of how to upgrade the typical manly summer barbecue to something a bit more feminine and fun!
Let's start with appetizers; something very easy and delicious is crostini (a bit fancier than the classic chips and dip!). Plus you can mix it up and put basically anything on them which is good for friends who have food limitations i.e. vegetarians. Some ideas are prosciutto and basil or olive and goat cheese.
Next and most important is the entree – how about skirt steak and lobster bites. If you're feeling ambitious, go all out with the lobster by making lobster rolls with ingredients such as cucumbers and tarragon.
For dessert, skip the simple watermelon wedge and go for a more complicated scooped out watermelon with tons of fresh fruit inside.
As for beverages – try a mint flavored drink such as a Mojito or a Bellini, champagne and peach juice. If it's going to be classy, paper plates are a no! Happy barbequing!

The "I Love Lisa" episode of the fourth season of The Simpsons
How is everyone's Valentine's Day? Or I guess I should also ask how Single's Awareness Day is going for everyone else. Remember, overdosing on chocolate is an equal opportunity for all of us.
Personally, I eschew Valentine's Day. I mean, I have trouble "getting" it. I know there was a Saint Valentine in there and then somehow some winged cupids manhandling bows and arrows got mixed in there too. But along with such icons as leprechauns and witches, I am not a fan of Hallmark Holidays. After passing through primary school and collecting cut-out Valentines from my classmates — did anyone else experience one their first socially insecure moments like I did back then? — I stopped paying attention to this date. Even as a person happily coupled in a relationship, I do not celebrate Valentine's Day.
I apologize if this sounds like vitriol I am spewing, as I recognize that I may sound like the Valentine Grinch. I think that one of the reasons why I felt ambivalent about Valentine's Day was that I always worked on this date. While I was doing my undergraduate studies, I waited tables part-time and of course Valentine's Day is a huge day in the restaurant business. The restaurant layout would need to be revised so that all tables can seat two, and then romantic props like flower petals, pink ribbons and mandatory candles would be arranged in the space. I was always a very polite and competent server so there was never too much of a difference in the way I dealt with customers, though it was an odd feeling being entrapped in a room surrounded by lovey dovey couples.
PDA, as long as it is not explicit (!), is not something that I frown upon at all. That is, until I moved to Montréal. I know they say that Paris is for lovers, but Montréal? Well, let us say it is also for touchy feely types.
In one of my first memories of when I initially moved to the city, I was sitting at a diner with a friend for a lazy weekend breakfast in the francophone dominated neighbourhood of the Plateau. There was a couple sitting in a booth across from us, with their hands intertwined on the table between each other, their bedroom eyes locked together. Each of them would take turns and stand up and reach across the table to lay very passionate kisses. Eventually, they moved to sit on the same side of the booth and continued a full-on makeout session while my friend I am uncomfortably tried to eat our toast and eggs.
It was during the summer that I moved to Montréal, and as I love exploring a new area by walking all over the city, I of course made regular visits to the mountain, Mont Royal, and the encompassing park. Montréal is a hilly island, and Montréalers like to sit on grassy hills to picnic, play games, or just relax. But, as I said, the city is for touchy feely types and when you look at the people sitting on the grassy hills on a beautiful day in summer, I would say about a quarter of those people in the park are sucking face. I swear, I am not kidding; try visiting la belle province, especially during the warmer months.
Montréalers just love to engage in PDA all around the city. On the mountain, by the canal, on a sidewalk bench spotlighted by a street lamp. My first visit to La Petite Italie (Little Italy) involved my friends and I dropping in to a popular pizzeria late at night while a sixty-something couple were mindlessly engaged in a hot and heavy embrace outside the restaurant. This never happens in Toronto.

Leah Blog: Introduction
December 8th, 2009
Hi, I'm Leah and I have always been in good shape. I like to walk and eat healthy (most of the time), so I have always had a body that I felt comfortable in. That was until I had my first child. I gained 60 pounds during the pregnancy and only lost 40 of those pounds during the first year. It was such a struggle for me because I knew that I wanted four children, but I didn't want to gain any more weight. So I worked very hard to keep my weight down were I liked it. After my fourth child, I vowed to take all my extra weight off. After a year, I had lost any pregnancy weight, plus an extra 10 pounds!! I was so excited to have the weight gone, but I was upset when I saw what my stomach looked like. I had extra skin that looked liked an extra "buttâ€. My pants fit, but the skin hug over the pants. UGLY. I had worked out, gained muscle, but I couldn't really do anything to loose the extra skin.
My husband has always been supportive of me. He knows that when I look good, I feel good. He also knows how hard I have worked to get this body back into shape! We talked about the fact that I need to focus on myself every once and a while, not only our four children but, I love those kids SO MUCH and I don't want to take time out to worry about myself. I don't want to take any time away from them, but then when do I have time to think about myself????? We decided to get a consultation and see what a tummy tuck entails. If it is too much to deal with, if it is too much money, I can forget about it. BUT, if it is something manageable and something I can handle…
OK, I am going for it. I am at my skinniest and I want to reward myself for all this hard work. I decided to get a cosmetic surgery consultation.
Please check back to read about my consultation for a abdominoplasty or more commonly referred to as a tummy tuck.

It's easy to fall in love with Cappadocia, or certainly to think your stay was too short.
If you go for three days you will crave a full week. If you go for a week you will crave two more. You will meet many Turks who came from elsewhere and decided Cappadocia needs a full lifetime to be given it's due.
First and foremost is the startling and wondrous landscape. Americans might imagine a combination of Sedona and the Badlands served up in parts as fluffy soft serve ice cream.
Mushroom-shaped fairy castle outcroppings abound, as do craggy peaks all filled with largely vestigial pigeon homes in had once been troglodyte havens for persecuted early Christians seeking safety.
Rumors that George Lucas used this lunar dreamscape for Star Wars filming are quite plausible, though untrue.
Every morning--or nearly so-- armies of awestruck tourists board a hundred or so colorful hot air balloons to see this geological wonder from on high.
Cappadocia is one of the best places in the world for hot air ballooning, both because weather cooperates and the vistas never fail to charm.
What you are looking at are volcanic landscapes eroded over time by the steppe's wind and water. If you have an interest in geology Cappadocia needs to go on your must-see list for sure.
Cappadocia is also a hiker's paradise. Every day you can take a different trail and keep busy for a week. Then there are many informal trails like the back road trail from Uçhisar to Göreme, where you will come upon improbable tea gardens in remote corners.
Deciding where to stay in Cappadocia is a matter of weighing your time, the type of transport you prefer, and whether you want to join one of the many ubiquitous tour offerings in the area. Motor scooters to get from one town to another are easy to find and hire, but the roads are somehow less exhilarating than those world travelers might expect in more remote areas. Cars, all terrain vehicles, mountain bikes and tour guides are also easy to find. Best yet there are very inexpensive commuter buses that go from town to town, though if you are planning several stops in a day plan to while much time away waiting for connections.
Göreme seems to be tourist-central in the area and may be the best place to locate if your time is short and you want to be able to walk to many inexpensive restaurants, bus connections and tour offices.
Uçhisar, with its magical castle landmark is far less touristy. For a feeling of secluded splendor try Kale Konak Hotel-- in a quiet cave room or an equally private room above ground-- which is right by the castle's entrance.
Ürgüp is similarly less tourist tout feeling than Göreme and definitely a place you want to make time to walk around its hills to get lost and found in areas of cave remnants and old Greek style houses.
There are two wineries in this town and many fine dining restaurants that serve them. If you are especially hungry try Ziggy's, where the good food and appealing surrounds will satisfy to the point of taking away your appetite for the next day's sumptuous turkish breakfast. For a life-memorable treat meal take yourself to Ürgüp's Muti's Restaurant, where locavore gourmets can experience innovative spicing of traditional Anatolian cuisine.
Whether your interests are for outdoor activities or more relaxed hamam-enabled relaxing with wining and dining Do make time to take in at least a few of the historic attractions in the area.
Göreme's Open Air Museum where you tour of historic sites should probably begin. The audio guide gives a detailed accounting of the many religious frescoes created in the cave churches by the orders of hermit monks and early Christians escaping to cave cities for safety in centuries gone by. You can continue your exploration of early Christian life by visiting one of several underground cities where early Christians would hide for months at a time to evade marauding armies. These cities dwarf Rome's catacombs, which seems like a small teaser to what you see in Cappadocia.
The sun is bright white in Cappadocia most of the time. It is a pleasant place to just be.
Even in the most touristy commercial strip of Göreme there is minimal harassment from touts. Sit, eat, drink local wines, shop for Cappadocia style ceramics and other Turkish goods from rugs to scarves. . Go birding on a nearby trail. Admire olives, grapes, apricots and more in terraced lands and every nook and cranny. Stay busy or just relax--Cappadocia is a haven for all types of travelers.

My weekend was pretty relaxing, or it was supposed to be but turned out to be anything but, relaxing.
Friday night, I had a slumber party planned for the girls in our Singles Branch to just have a girly fest and then organized our Service Project stuff that we needed to get done before next month, sometime. Our Stake is putting together a bunch of School Kits for the poor and we had to make the bags that are going to hold all of the school supplies.
So Friday after work, I rush over to my house to throw some clothes and pack up the stuff I needed to take over to Roro's house and then I was off to Roro's house to help her in any way that I could to get the house in order before the girls started arriving. I got to her house a little before 6 and the first of the girls started arriving at about 7ish.
Of the 20 girls that RSVP'd, only about 6 showed up but that didn't stop us from having a good ol' time.
We had a blast! We karaoke'd (is that even how you spell it? I'm too lazy to check it so you know what the heck I mean) all night and when I say ALL NIGHT, we really did do that and Mulu once again had everyone in fits of giggles when she sang, Crazy by Patsy Cline and then she had me almost peeing in my pants when she sang Britney Spears' I'm A Slave For You. Oh goodness, she was her own back up dancer for that one and though I was singing with her, I couldn't really concentrate because she was making me laugh so hot dang much.
We stayed up way too late (or early since we all went to sleep at about 5 in the morning) and then woke up early to make breakfast and start on the bags, since we had to be up and decent since our Stake Relief Society President was coming by to show us how to do the bags.
So because I can sew worth a damn, I hid in the kitchen with Roro and made the food while Mulu and the others tried their hand at making the bags, which actually turned out really good. We made bags until 6:30pm at night.
I wanted to go to the Stephenie Meyer signing at my local Borders but I was beyond tired and I had Nathan go check it out, since I didn't have a wristband, I wanted to see if I would be waiting long and since Nathan was on his way back from the beach and he'd be passing the Borders on his way home, I asked him to stop by and see if it's crowded over there. He called me a little after 5 and was like, "It's pretty packed over here, what's going on over here? One of your geeky book conferences?" Then he was like, "Holy crap, is that Whitney right there? And look, it's Cassie" He saw a bunch of random people from our Church over at Borders because Stephenie Meyer is a member of our Church so a lot of the people from our Church went out to support her, I guess.
After I told the girls (who wanted to go with us to the signing) that Nate said Borders was pretty crowded, we all decided that none of us wanted to go stand in line and so instead of getting dressed, we all stayed in our pajamas, LOL and played Guitar Hero on Cassie's (the other Cassie) PS2, that game is so much fun! I wanna get it so frickin' bad! That game is off the hook and if you haven't played this game, make sure you fix that pronto, this game, I LOVE!
I got home a little after 7 and my happy butt went straight to sleep, I was shaken awake by the shrill noise that is my phone, holy crap is my ringtone really loud, but its my song, Make It Work by Ne Yo, so I wasn't too mad about it, but man, I was so tired, I checked and saw that I got a text message from Nathan and a voice mail from Daphne. I tried calling Daphne back but I couldn't hear what she was saying and I was tired so I just hung up and went back to sleep, only to be shaken awake by the same shrill noise a few hours later.
It was Nathan.
He wants to hang out after work, so I need to wake up. I didn't, of course…I went back to sleep because it was after 11 and then my phone rang again and he was leaving work and on his way to my house, so like the good little girl that I am, I ran a brush through my hair, shook it off my shoulders (it was a good thing, Chelsea straightened my naps for me) threw on the same pair of jeans that I wore to the slumber party and threw a jacket on and thanked my lucky stars it all matched and fell asleep on the couch again waiting for Nathan to get to my house.
I got a call from my cousin Braxton who wanted to know if I was hanging out and I told him, "Yeah, Nathan's on his way to my house, so get ready, I'm dragging you with me since Chris and Hermy Herm are with him."
Chris is Nathan's sisters boyfriend, they both work at the House of Blues and Chris was coming to chill. Hermy Herm is what we call his friend, Herman from Hawaii. Herman is living with Nathan now and we're all one big happy circle of friends. So, the guys were hungry and they wanted to chill, so I went and chilled with all of the guys…I was the only girl, it was great times for me.
After that, we hung out for awhile and then they took me home. I fell asleep again, texting with Nathan and then fighting over something but I forgot what and then he said that I hung up on him, but I was too tired to care, like Chelsea would say, whatev…=) I didn't get to sleep until about 4 am. What's new?
Sunday morning, I had to be up early because Mulu had a meeting at Church and then Tita and B Nice had to sing in Sacrament and they wanted to practice their song so I got my happy butt up at the ungodly hour of 8 o'clock on a weekend and got dressed.
Mulu and Tita came and got me and we went to Church. The girls practiced their song and totally rocked it out because I swear I was in tears, listening to them sing, my favorite song, "Its Real" and then Church started.
It's funny because there was a guy that got baptized yesterday and he's been coming to our Branch for awhile now and B Nice comes to our Branch to sing (she's never been to our Branch before) and it's such a small world because she knew Rodney, since they work together and she didn't know he was taking discussions and he didn't know that she was a member, LOL…poor B Nice is not setting a good example at work, LOL.
Man, I love listening to my friend Tita Boom sing, the girl can blow. B Nice too, and they did such an amazing job singing at Church and then again at the baptism last night. It was the business. I can't wait to listen to them again.
After Church, Nathan, Herman and I went to lunch. Nathan treated us to L&L's (it seems to be my staple after Church, since this is the exact same restaurant that me, Mulu and Miah went to lunch after Church last Sunday) and then Miah started calling, because I needed to doing the program. I told Nathan to take me to Compton and he had a fit, because Nathan isn't liked too well over in Compton so after a bunch of words thrown all over the car and him dragging me to take Braxton something to eat, he finally took me over to Compton, two hours later.
I got the programs done, made Nathan go to the baptism, put him to work and then made him come to Jamba Juice after the baptism (I know, we're horrible, huh?) so that he can pay for me and Brenna's Jamba Juice and then after he paid for our Jamba Juice and all of us headed over to Compton, he went home.
I hung out in Compton for a little bit, said my goodbyes to my 2nd Mom who is leaving for Samoa for a couple of weeks and then we all headed out. Roro took me and Brenna home and then I put Brenna to sleep and not too long after I got home, Nathan came and picked me up to hang out some more…
…yeah, I know, lots and lots of hanging out with Nathan, it's a good and a bad thing but I can't stop it because I love the company.
But man, I had me a good ol' time last night….*sigh*

The pair will play live at the Polish festival in August.
One of the highlights from the latest announcement is a joint live set from Theo Parrish and Amp Fiddler. As part of the newly reformed Teddy's Get Down five-piece, the pair have already played several dates across the UK, with sets made up live renditions of Parrish's solo material, plus a few covers. With just Parrish and Amp Fiddler on stage, we're not exactly sure what will be offered up, but if the Teddy's Get Down shows are anything to go by, both will be equipped with keyboards while Parish handles vocal duties. Other new names joining the lineup include Actress, Gui Boratto and Pariah.

When I was a wild cat in NYC and raising Hell on a routine basis I would cleanse myself of the intoxicants of a late night by drinking a nasty little cup of volcanic ash for breakfast. Nowadays as a devoted yogi and mother I have little time for late nights or 'extracurriculars' but toxins are still flooding my system in the form of second hand smoke, truck fumes etc. Therefore, every ten days or so I drink my volcanic ash and hold off for the day on taking vitamins or nutraceuticals.
A volcanic detoxifier—Bentonite, a medicinal powdered clay (also known as montmorillonite), derives from deposits of weathered volcanic ash. It is one of the most effective natural intestinal detoxifying agents available and has been recognized as such for centuries by native peoples around the world. Liquid clay contains minerals that, once inside the gastrointestinal tract, are able to absorb toxins and deliver mineral nutrients to an impressive degree. Liquid clay is inert which means it passes through the body undigested.
Technically, the clay first adsorbs toxins (heavy metals, free radicals, pesticides), attracting them to its extensive surface area where they adhere like flies to sticky paper; then it absorbs the toxins, taking them in the way a sponge mops up a kitchen counter mess. Continue reading

Best way to do a pop-up 'info bubble'
this is my first post so hi to everybody :)
I'm making a Java applet which reads XML data and displays it on a JPanel. There can be several hundred to several thousand points (each point is a GPS position from a cycle ride, I have a screenshot but unfortunately I haven't posted enough to put it in the message). The route is plotted as a graph-like line, and when the mouse is moved over the route, the point underneath is selected and is highlighted in orange.
My intention is to have a bubble pop up as the mouse selects different points, showing details of that point (speed etc), but I'm not sure what would be the best way to create these 'info-bubbles'.
I could draw the bubble as 2D geometry directly on the same JPanel as the route, or I could create a child JPanel to hold it. Does anyone know what are the advantages of each approach, or perhaps there's a better method altogether?
thanks in advance for any suggestions!
I would go with overriding getToolTipText for the JPanel.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tool tips could work, however I really want to have a bit more control - e.g. multi-line text, images / graphics, and also I want the messages to be 'sticky' i.e. to stay 'popped up' until the mouse moves onto another point.
I will definitely use that tool tip class, so thanks again for the pointer, but for the info-bubbles - which are to be more like the bubbles on Google maps - I need something a bit more flexible.

When it comes to remote connections, VNC is many people's protocol of choice. With native support built into Mac OS X and most versions of Linux, and a plethora of applications available for Windows and (seemingly) every other system on earth, it's hard to match VNC for versatility.
But getting a VNC connection working when there are routers and port settings involved can be tricky, particularly if you need to access the computer of someone not savvy enough to make the necessary changes to their firewall and port settings. This explains the popularity of services like LogMeIn LogMeIn - Access your PC Remotely Read More .
If you want a simple way to help your friends with their computer problems, but don't want to depend on a proprietary service to do so, Gitso is what you're looking for. Download Gitso if you want, and keep reading to find out how to use it.
The Basics
This program has two main functions: getting help and helping others. The person helping should probably start the program first, and doing so is simple enough. Here's what it looks like when I start the program in Ubuntu:
Giving help was as simple as clicking the "Give Support" button, then pressing start. The message "Server Running" means I'm ready to accept connections. Now comes the tricky part. I need my friend, who needs help, to connect to me. For this to happen he or she first needs to download Gitso, or I could simply email the program in order to simplify things. Once Gitso is working it will look like this:
My friend needs to type my IP address, which I'll gladly provide over the phone. Once this is entered I will be connected to their computer:
So the person receiving support only needs to do three things: download the program, run the program and type an IP address. It's a little complicated, but far less than talking your friend through configuring their port settings.
Port Settings
Oh yeah, port settings. Using this service on a local network is simple, but if you want to make use of Gitso via your Internet connection you're going to need to configure your port settings properly. Log into your router's administrator and make sure port 5500 is forwarding to the computer you'll be helping people from. For best results give your computer a static IP.
Still have questions about setting up a reverse VNC connection with this program? You can find more information at Gitso's how-to page, or ask about any troubles you might have in the comments below. Also feel free to share any links to remote support software you find that's easier to use than this is.

Leadership Versus Management
"Leadership is the art of accomplishing more than the science of management says is possible" (Gen. Colin Powell)
In the text book Management: The New Competitive Landscape management is defined in the four functions: planning, organizing, controlling and leading. (Bateman/Snell, pg 15) A function of managing, therefore one could conclude, is leadership. Pieter Droog contradicts this statement. He says managing can be done without leading.(Droog, 1) Management in essence is the mundane procedures such as
scheduling, training, bookkeeping and the likes that make a business operate. Management according to Miriam-Webster is defined as "the act or art of managing : the conducting or supervising of something (as a business)". This more vague reference to the role of management makes no reference to leadership. So where exactly does the role of leadership fall in the management responsibility, and how?
"Managers provide resources...leaders provide vision and influence".(Burrs,pg2) According to Droog management has historically been promotion driven.
If you a re good at something you get promoted to management. A good engineer is often promoted to engineering manager, a good salesman to sales manager- with little if any regard to leadership skill. Leadership is by many individual's definitions much different than that of a manager. Management courses are available at almost any University, yet, leadership is expected to be learned on the job.
The idea of management and leadership as two separate and distinctive ideals, yet interdependent, has evolved predominately in the past decade. The business world in the
90's saw a great deal of downsizing. Many of the individuals layed off were middle managers who were in essence in the leadership training phase stripping many layers from the management chain.(Droog, 1) As the businesses began to recover and senior executives started retiring, the leadership resources were thin.

Not only should President Obama NOT apologize for the US Dropping the Atomic Bombs on Japan, he should vigorously defend President Truman's decision and point out why in retrospect it was also in the best interest of the Japanese people.
When I was stationed in Japan I had several opportunities to travel to Hiroshima and Nagasaki and have visited both the Peace Memorial Museum and the Peace Park several times. Hence, I have seen the effects of the Atomic Bomb and it just reinforced my deeply held belief that President Truman made the correct decision when he had the Bombs dropped.
Both my father and mother served overseas during the War as did several of my uncles and anyone born after the War who had a father, grandfather or great-grandfather who fought in World War II should thank God every single day that President Truman had the guts to use the Atomic Bombs on Japan or there is a good chance you wouldn't be alive to be reading this. While terrible, those bombs probably saved almost a million American lives and, by the estimate of the Japanese Imperial General Staff, at least 20 millions Japanese lives.
Remember, US Army and Marine Corps forces had just secured Okinawa at a cost of over 20,000 dead (12,520 KIA) and over 55,000 wounded, by far the bloodiest battle of the Pacific, and a third of the island's civilian population was killed with some estimates as high as 300,000 – and at the time the Japanese didn't even consider Okinawa part of their "home islands." Factored in to President Truman's decision was the Secretary of the Army's estimate of allied causalities of a "home island" invasion of up to 4 million casualties including as many as 800,000 killed. On 18 July 1945 President Truman had met with his Joint Chiefs and decided to order 766,000 troops to prepare to invade Kyūshū beginning 1 November of that year. This prompted the War Department to order 500,000 Purple Heart medals, a stock pile still being used today.
The Japanese planned an all-out defense of Kyūshū with Four veteran divisions withdrawn from China to strengthen the forces already in Japan and 45 new divisions recently activated. In all, there were 2.3 million Japanese Army troops prepared to defend the home islands, backed by a civilian militia of 28 million men and women. Casualty predictions varied widely, but were extremely high. As I said before, even the Japanese Imperial General Staff estimated 20 million Japanese deaths.
Compare that 20 million to the best estimates of the total causalities from both bombs of about 130,000 killed the first day and as many as 250,000 total dead over time and you can see why it was the RIGHT decision.
And anyone still not convinced that President Truman was right to drop the bombs, I would invite you to listen to Japanese Emperor Hirohito's Jewel Voice Radio Broadcast of Noon 15 August 1945 (Japan Standard Time) where he announced to the Japanese people the unconditional surrender of the Japan Thus ending World War II. The only reason for the surrender the Emperor stated in his speech was the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Here is the text of the Jewel Voice Radio Broadcast of 15 August 1945 in its entirety:
After pondering deeply the general trends of the world and the actual conditions obtaining in Our Empire today, We have decided to effect a settlement of the present situation by resorting to an extraordinary measure.
We have ordered Our Government to communicate to the Governments of the United States, Great Britain, China and the Soviet Union that Our Empire accepts the provisions of their Joint Declaration.
To strive for the common prosperity and happiness of all nations as well as the security and well-being of Our subjects is the solemn obligation which has been handed down by Our Imperial Ancestors and which lies close to Our heart.
Indeed, We declared war on America and Britain out of Our sincere desire to ensure Japan's self-preservation and the stabilization of East Asia, it being far from Our thought either to infringe upon the sovereignty of other nations or to embark upon territorial aggrandizement.
But now the war has lasted for nearly four years. Despite the best that has been done by everyone – the gallant fighting of the military and naval forces, the diligence and assiduity of Our servants of the State, and the devoted service of Our one hundred million people – the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan's advantage, while the general trends of the world have all turned against her interest.
Moreover, the enemy has begun to employ a new and most cruel bomb, the power of which to do damage is, indeed, incalculable, taking the toll of many innocent lives. Should We continue to fight, not only would it result in an ultimate collapse and obliteration of the Japanese nation, but also it would lead to the total extinction of human civilization.
Such being the case, how are We to save the millions of Our subjects, or to atone Ourselves before the hallowed spirits of Our Imperial Ancestors? This is the reason why We have ordered the acceptance of the provisions of the Joint Declaration of the Powers.
We cannot but express the deepest sense of regret to Our Allied nations of East Asia, who have consistently cooperated with the Empire towards the emancipation of East Asia.
The thought of those officers and men as well as others who have fallen in the fields of battle, those who died at their posts of duty, or those who met with untimely death and all their bereaved families, pains Our heart night and day.
The welfare of the wounded and the war-sufferers, and of those who have lost their homes and livelihood, are the objects of Our profound solicitude.
The hardships and sufferings to which Our nation is to be subjected hereafter will be certainly great. We are keenly aware of the inmost feelings of all of you, Our subjects. However, it is according to the dictates of time and fate that We have resolved to pave the way for a grand peace for all the generations to come by enduring the unendurable and suffering what is unsufferable.
Having been able to safeguard and maintain the structure of the Imperial State, We are always with you, Our good and loyal subjects, relying upon your sincerity and integrity.
Beware most strictly of any outbursts of emotion which may engender needless complications, or any fraternal contention and strife which may create confusion, lead you astray and cause you to lose the confidence of the world.
Let the entire nation continue as one family from generation to generation, ever firm in its faith in the imperishability of its sacred land, and mindful of its heavy burden of responsibility, and of the long road before it.
Unite your total strength, to be devoted to construction for the future. Cultivate the ways of rectitude, foster nobility of spirit, and work with resolution – so that you may enhance the innate glory of the Imperial State and keep pace with the progress of the world.
(Hirohito's signature and Privy Seal)

Province Partners with CultureLink on Community-based Poverty Solutions for Toronto Youth
Local Poverty Reduction Fund Supports Community-Driven Poverty Solutions
Ontario is supporting a CultureLink Settlement Services project to help Toronto youth affected by poverty graduate high school.
Through the Local Poverty Reduction Fund, Ontario is investing $752,800, over three years, to help CultureLink Settlement Services implement and evaluate a program designed to reduce the high school dropout rate of Somali youth in Toronto.
The program will provide youth with mentors, who will support students with individualized learning plans, monitor academic performance and classroom attendance, and work with teachers to support student success. A Somali-speaking project coordinator will also work with parents to reinforce classroom learning.
Evidence gathered from this project and others will be used to support poverty reduction programs across the province that have been proven to work and that can expand over time.
Fighting poverty is part of the government's economic plan for Ontario. The four-part plan is building Ontario up by investing in people's talents and skills, building new public infrastructure like roads and transit, creating a dynamic, innovative environment where business thrives and building a secure savings plan.
Quick Facts
- The Local Poverty Reduction Fund is a $50 million, six-year initiative that supports community-driven projects, which measurably improve the lives of those disproportionately affected by poverty, including: women, single parents, people with disabilities, youth, newcomers, visible minorities, seniors and Aboriginal peoples.
- Organizations have two more opportunities to apply for funding in 2016 and 2017.
Additional Resources
"With this funding, CultureLink will be able to evaluate its service delivery model and help us learn more about what approaches are making a difference for youth facing poverty in communities across Ontario."
Deb Matthews
"CultureLink will be able to use a well-researched and evidence-based model of success to deliver a program that will make a meaningful and long-term difference to helping young students succeed in and out of the classroom. The mentorship program is an excellent way of making sure students stay on track with their academic goals as well as providing individualized one-on-one support when needed."
Peter Milczyn
"CultureLink has a proven track record of working with local organizations to improve the lives of many in our community. This funding will not only help bring to Toronto a successfully developed program used in cities across North America but also integrate local expertise, skills and knowledge. I am excited to see how this mentorship program will help make a difference in the educational experience of young students"

text: CULTURE Summer in Malibu: Rentals Going Fast Even as Prices Rise 12:00 PM PDT 6/13/2014 by Jacquelyn Ryan FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Simon Berlyn Steven Spielberg's house is said to have been snapped up (for $150,000 a month) amid a hot luxury market, where just a few choice beach pads remain. This story first appeared in the June 20 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine. Brian Grazer's former three-story beachfront estate in the Malibu Colony hit the market for lease this summer for the first time. The Mediterranean-style five-bedroom home -- purchased by an unnamed buyer in February for $17.4 million -- was decorated by White House designer Michael S. Smith and boasts an indoor pool, an elevator and a teahouse. It's listed for $175,000 a month -- among the most expensive rentals in the gated community. Apparently that's not a hindrance: It already has been snapped up for August and has received ample interest for July. PHOTOS Back to the Beach: Shorefront Real Estate Booms Once More It is a sign that the beachside community's leasing market has bounced back to peak levels after an unusual dip for the tony city during the economic downturn. "The market is performing flawlessly," says Rodrigo Iglesias, an agent at brokerage Hilton & Hyland. "We are back at the levels of activity that we had prior to the 2007-2008 crisis, and prices have improved from that time." Rental rates are on their way up in popular locations like the Colony, say agents. On nearby Malibu Road, a three-bedroom property nearly doubled its asking rate from last summer to $75,000. And the number of listings at the highest levels is increasing. "If there were two listings asking $200,000 last year, now there are five asking $200,000 for the summer months," says Madison Hildebrand, who owns the Malibu Life unit of Coldwell Banker. "It's unprecedented." Agents say rising prices haven't slowed leasing velocity. Among the notable deals, Steven Spielberg is rumored to have leased his home on Broad Beach, which boasts 130 feet of (eroded) beach frontage, for about $150,000 a month. STORY Summer in Malibu: 20 Ways to Make the Most of the Coast "Ultra-high-end homes of $75,000 and up that are furnished impeccably with amenities such as a theater, gym and pools tend to lease relatively quickly," says Sandro Dazzan, an agent at Coldwell Banker. "All the homes are pretty much leased." Well, not entirely. For those who didn't plan ahead, some gems still are obtainable. TV producer-director Kevin Bright (Friends) owns a Broad Beach abode, with 80 feet of beach coastline, a 13-car garage and an infinity pool and spa, that is listed for $75,000 a month. A glass-clad Malibu Road house Kim Cattrall's character called home in the Sex and the City movie is available for $100,000. And David Charvet and Brooke Burke have listed their six-bedroom Italianate residence in Serra Retreat at $50,000 a month. Perhaps the most expensive is a 7-acre estate that was featured in Funny People and was home to Evan Rachel Wood's True Blood character. Known as La Villa Contenta, the Pacific Coast Highway property near Latigo Canyon still is available at a stunning $350,000 a month. Even at that price, the rates are a bargain compared with the other summer bastion of the well-heeled: the Hamptons, where ultra-luxury rental home rates can run $500,000 a month and even top $1 million. "I think the [Malibu] prices are really attractive," says Coldwell Banker's Chris Cortazzo. "With the new Nobu and Mr Chow, Malibu now is a year-round destination, and people who ordinarily went to the Hamptons come here for a different lifestyle." The demand is high enough that some developers even are building houses with an eye primarily on short-term renting. That's the idea behind architect Michael Sant's nearly completed three-bedroom home on a hilltop off Saddle Peak Road that he plans to lease for $25,000 a month this summer. STORY Pamela Anderson: 'Malibu Might Be My Mayberry' "There's sort of a new category emerging of architecture for rent," he says. "People that really like design and travel are realizing that in their vacation rental they can find high-level taste in the place they want to be." Rental interest is so high that peer-to-peer leasing websites such as Airbnb and Vacation Rentals by Owner have been doing booming business, even in the luxury market. A recent look at the Airbnb site revealed more than 100 rentals ranging from $65 to nearly $2,000 a night in the area. Not everyone is happy about it. In May, the Malibu City Council -- spurred partly by complaints from neighbors of some of the busiest Airbnb rentals -- authorized officials to subpoena the online companies for the names of homeowners on the sites to ensure they pay their proper short-term rental taxes. The city has only 55 homes registered to handle rentals of 30 days or less. If the move is successful, says Hildebrand, owners might be less willing to rent short-term. "They are going to want a longer-term tenant than a shorter-term so they'll hike their prices to absorb the tax." But agents don't fear that further inflating prices will pose any threat to the market activity. People looking to rent in Malibu already know the most important rule. Says Hilton & Hyland agent Chad Rogers, "If you want paradise, you need to pay for it -- especially in the 'Bu." FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Jacquelyn Ryan firstname.lastname@example.com @thr

God bless Vicky from Freebees PR. Her company's the PR for Crocs SA and she'd been trying to convince me of their fabulousness for years, despite the fact that I repeatedly told her I'd sooner cut off my feet than slip them into a pair of plastic clogs. In fact, there was a time when she'd send me a press release for the brand and I'd respond with any snaps I could find on Google images of people vomiting in the street. (Yes, I'm a total dream to work with. All PRs, like, totally love me…)
Anyway, I've watched Crocs evolve over the years and slowly, ever so freakin slowly, they've morphed from le clog I associate with ER shift workers, chefs and people who can't get laid into something that I… might… (oooh God, it's so difficult to say…) actually wear! In fact, let me just come out and say it; I now own a pair of Crocs and I really, REALLY like them!
I attended a launch the other day, held at The Grand on the Beach, and got to get up close and personal with a couple of their new styles.
While I still don't love every Croc I see (some are still a bit too unfeminine or 'plastiek' for my liking), there are some that are ridiculously cute. And don't get me started on the whole comfort thing… Every single Croc-wearer says the same bloody thing; 'MAN, THEY'RE SOOO FRIKKEN COMFORTABLE…' God! My eyes used to roll into the back of my head… But here's the kicker… IT'S TRUE! I love how my li'l blue babies' grip the ground as I walk. And their rubbery little soles put a bounce in my step. They make me feel like I could go for a run on the prom with them and I'm almost tempted to try it.
Crocs have also teamed up with Hank Hayden to create a golf range. I had no clue who he was but my golf freak boyfriend says he's a 'big deal' 'cos he coached Tiger Woods.
Anyway, it would seem there's a limit to my Croc rocking… I picked up a pair of black rubbery thongs wondering if they'd be a good fit for summer and plonked myself onto a deck chair to try them on. Alas, the 'chair' was just a deck chair frame with a Crocs branded towel draped on it so I hit the ground HARD!
Clearly its God's way of saying there's only so much Croc I can handle. Still, I never thought I'd own and appreciate a pair of Crocs but as it turns out, I do. I really, really do.
If you're a small-minded semi-snob like me, bound by preconceptions or an image of the nasty old model, stick your head into a Crocs shop and see what their new stuff looks like. You just might like something… and if you try it on, it'll be game over 'cos 'MAN, THEY'RE SOOO FRIKKEN COMFORTABLE…'
Love, love
P.S. There was a prize for the most 'eye-catchingly' dressed guest. There was no competition when Olivie Keck from House & Leisure rocked up in her eye-catching colourblock sequin jacket.

JavaFX is a solution developed by Oracle to replace the outdated Swing GUI interface. So far I'm trying it and it's quite good, with some nice features that make it more user friendly such as controls that let the programmer drag and drop the elements without worrying about layouts and similar stuff.
Installing JavaFX.
In order to install JavaFX you only need to download the typical NetBeans IDE that can be found here.
Once you have installed it, the next step is to download the JavaFX Scene Builder which will let you view the FX project. The download link is fairly hidden in Oracle's page so you must go to JavaFXLink.
And accept the licence as shown in figure [1].
For this case you must choose Scene Builder 2.
My first FX application.
First attempt at making an FX application following the tutorial found here.
Detecting number of mouse clicks on an object.
Interesting snipped of code that lets the user count the number of times a button has been pressed and activates a given action depending on that given condition. It's interesting because unlike other application where it's common place, from what I saw in JavaFX its considered an unsafe practice and as such not allowed (?).

Why Use SuPHP?I use SuPHP due to the fact that I work for a web hosting provider, and I seek out new ways to accomplish tasks. One such task, is making PHP run under a different user account than that of the web servers own. For years, SuEXEC has been used, and rather haphazardly by adding variables into the /proc file system each time the server reboots. SuEXEC requires PHP scripts to be chmod 755, SuPHP I can require anything, or the standard chmod 644, which more people coming from other hosting providers will be used to.
One thing that I have found true, is that the less configuration and setup a customer has to do to get their website to work on your service, they happier they will be, and the less they bother your support staff. Being a member of the support staff, specifically the System Administration team, it affects me.
Here, I provide my own personal HOWTO, on getting SuPHP setup on a stock CentOS/RHEL 5.x server. By "stock" I mean everything is installed via RPM, either with a utility like "yum" or "up2date", or simply by hand with 'rpm -ivh
Necessary RPM'sThe following PHP related RPM's were installed on my system. By default, I want PHP w/ MySQL support, developer libraries, PDO support, and multi-language support (mbstring).
php php-devel php-common php-cli php-mysql php-mbstring php-pdoThe following non-PHP related RPM's were installed. Standard Apache web server, with the developer package to provide the APXS utilities & headers. MySQL server is also installed, however if your webserver is not a database server, and either you will have a separate database server, or none at all, you can be safe removing the 'mysql-server' package. The others provide the MySQL client for use with PHP and/or other applications. Also added, is mod_ssl for SSL enabled webpages, and mod_suphp (bingo!). mod_auth_mysql & perl-DBD-MySQL have been used for PHP/MySQL & Perl/CGI (resp.) database authentication mechanisms commonly used with more modern shopping carts, NATS systems, and website member authentication.
httpd httpd-devel mysql mysql-server mysql-devel mod_ssl mod_suphp mod_auth_mysql perl-DBD-MySQLIn my case, I replaced the stock CentOS RPM's for MySQL with the one's from dev.mysql.com. This is a personal & biased opinion, but I feel that MySQL binaries are better compiled since they know their own software the best. However, the same argument can be said of Linux OS Developers, that they know their OS' the best, and can compile MySQL to suit. Whichever you chose, should work just fine. Again, if this isn't going to be a MySQL database and webserver, then you can safely not install the MySQL-server* package. The MySQL-shared-compat* package includes headers for programs that may rely on older MySQL versions, such as 3.23.x, 4.x and MySQL 5.0, and are installed due to CentOS/RHEL utilizing MySQL 4.1 & 5.0.
MySQL-client-community-5.1.23-0.rhel5.i386.rpm MySQL-devel-community-5.1.23-0.rhel5.i386.rpm MySQL-server-community-5.1.23-0.rhel5.i386.rpm MySQL-shared-compat-5.1.23-0.rhel5.i386.rpm
Optional RPM'sI consider these to be mandatory on a modern web server for the mere fact, that nearly all web developers utilize third party web applications that make use of them. Graphics utilities like GD and ImageMagick are used by most forum & bulletin board applications, and even security software such as CAPTCHA's may use GD and/or ImageMagick. Other additions include mod_python & mod_perl for those web developers that want cutting edge scripting abilities. With "cutting edge" in mind, I also have a habit of including the following (and all their dependencies):
mod_perl mod_python php-gd php-xml php-mhash php-mcrypt php-ncurses php-bcmath php-imap php-pear php-tidy libtidy php-pear-Date php-pear-DB php-pear-File php-pear-Mail php-pear-Mail-Mime php-pear-Net-SMTP php-pear-Net-URL php-pear-Net-Socket gd gd-devel gd-progs ImageMagick ImageMagick-devel ImageMagick-perl
Editing Apache and suPHP Configs
- First, I want to stop the loading of mod_php, or the PHP Apache module, if they currently exist. This is so it does not load on startup. To do this, rename the php module config file:
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf.orig2007
- Edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/suphp.conf, and change the following:
Change: suPHP_Engine off To: suPHP_Engine on -- Remove the comment from the following: Change: #suPHP_ConfigPath /etc To: suPHP_ConfigPath /etc -- Remove the comment from the following: Change: # suPHP_AddHandler x-httpd-php To: suPHP_AddHandler x-httpd-php
- Edit /etc/suphp.conf, and change the following:
Change: docroot=/ To: docroot=/var/www/virtual Change: errors_to_browser=false To: errors_to_browser=true Change: x-httpd-php=php:/usr/bin/php To: x-httpd-php=php:/usr/bin/php-cgi
- Next, edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. In this example, we'll comment out a few global defaults, and make a few minor changes:
Change (For security reasons): ServerTokens OS To: ServerTokens Prod Change to your liking:Now add NameVirtualHost & VirtualHost directives. Note that I have included "suPHP_UserGroup userid groupid", required for suPHP to work properly AND I've also enabled SuEXEC for CGI scripts, though you CAN set SuPHP to handle both. The old-fashioned SuEXEC fanatic still wants CGI to be put through a tried & true SuEXEC system. Example:
StartServers 8 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 20 ServerLimit 256 MaxClients 256 MaxRequestsPerChild 4000Example: StartServers 10 MinSpareServers 10 MaxSpareServers 25 ServerLimit 1024 MaxClients 1024 MaxRequestsPerChild 10000Change (if uncommented): ServerName www.example.com:80 To: #ServerName www.example.com:80 Change: DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var To: DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index.html.var Change: LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined To: (comment it out) #LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined Change: LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combinedio To: (comment out example, copy and change end from "combinedio" to "combined") #LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combinedio LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combined Change: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/" To: (comment out global scope) #ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/" Change: AllowOverride None Options None Order allow,deny Allow from allTo: (comment out) # # AllowOverride None # Options None # Order allow,deny # Allow from all #

Editing /etc/php.iniEdit, to your liking, the /etc/php.ini file. I usually like to make sure global_variables is "OFF", as most web applications these days, should work without it. Also, unless you restrict your users heavily, you can usually have your user add an option to the necessary folder using an .htaccess file. If performance is an issue, it can also be enabled per VirtualHost in Apache's config file.
Change the following under [sessions], from:
;session.save_path = "/var/lib/php/session"To:
session.save_path = "/tmp"
Finishing UpYou should be ready to go, simply start apache using "service httpd start" and away you go. Your PHP scripts should run as the user instead of the web server user.

Principal Investigator: Dr William Herrington
Department: Clinical Trial Service Unit
Institution: University of OxfordTags: 15595, Chronic kidney disease, Renal
Lead Collaborators: Professor Cathie Sudlow
Collaborating Institutions and Addresses: University of Edinburgh, Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences, Chancellor's Building, 49 Little France Crescent, Edinburgh EH16 4SB
1a: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects about 10% of the UK adult population and is associated with increased risks of progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and other vascular and non-vascular diseases.
The proposal is to investigate:
- the determinants of incident and progressive CKD, and
- the impact of CKD on a wide range of health outcomes
1b: CKD is increasingly common (10% of the UK) and has important consequences for patients, including substantially increased risk of developing end-stage renal disease and dying prematurely (particularly from, but not restricted to, vascular disease).
The proposed work will help quantify the relative importance of known CKD risk factors and perhaps identify novel ones. Genetic analyses will help assess whether these CKD risk factors are associations or are truly causal (ie, may help identify new treatment targets)
1c: Initially, cross-sectional analyses of the baseline questionnaire, measurements and relevant biomarkers/ clinical outcomes data will be analysed to provide a platform for longitudinal analysis as UKB matures, which will document far more reliably than before the effects of the determinants of CKD and the impact of CKD on cardiovascular disease, infections and other (as yet unidentified) complications.
The co-applicants conducted the SHARP trial in 9,000 patients with moderate to advanced CKD and therefore, case-control experiments of genetic exposures using genetic risk scores will be conducted using a combination of SHARP/UKB cases and UKB controls.
1d: The full cohort is required.

World Diabetes Day is a global campaign which was established to raise the awareness of this metabolic disorder. It is observed every year on November 14th.
The number of people diagnosed with diabetes mellitus increases every year. Thus the main goal of marking this day is to inform the general public of the main causes of diabetes and ways to prevent it.
There are several types of diabetes, but the two most common are:
- Type 1
- Type 2
The cause of Type 1 diabetes is still not known and happens due to the pancreas's inability to produce enough insulin. It is not preventable, and people who have a family history of the disorder have a higher chance of getting it.
On the other hand, Type 2 diabetes is preventable. The main risk factors are obesity and lack of exercise. This type is more common, with hundreds of millions of cases in 2015.
Today we will look at:
- History of World Diabetes Day
- Facts about diabetes
- What to do on World Diabetes Day
History of World Diabetes Day
The campaign was launched by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization in 1991. The campaign lasts throughout the entire year, while the main activities are held on November 14th.
November 14th was chosen since a Nobel Prize laureate Frederick Banting, who was a part of the team that discovered insulin, was born on this day.
Since the establishment, over 160 countries have participated in the activities related to World Diabetes Day. The campaign encompasses activities such as TV campaigns, sports activities, screening programs, etc.
World Diabetes Day campaigns have a different theme every year. In 2015, the campaign was focused on Healthy Eating, a year later on Eyes on Diabetes, while Women and Diabetes were 2017's theme. The 2018 theme is The Family and Diabetes.
Facts About Diabetes
The data about diabetes can be rather inaccurate. Various sources state the different figures. However, for the purpose of this article, we used the WHO data.
According to the WHO, there were 350 million people diagnosed with diabetes in 2015. The number of people having diabetes is expected to pass half a billion by 2030.
Around 75% of people with diabetes live in middle-income and third-world countries. However, the US has a rapid increase, as well. Half of those diagnosed don't even have access to diabetes education programs.
Type 2 diabetes is more common and accounts for 90% of all diabetes cases. Scientists believe that 80% of the cases could've been prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle.
Diabetes is one of the main causes of blindness, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. It can also lead to leg amputation and kidney failure.
What to Do on World Diabetes Day
Let this day be a reminder for you to adopt a healthy lifestyle and to learn more about the disorder. Think about the food you eat and how often you exercise. If you are overweight, consider paying a visit to a doctor. Obesity is a leading factor for getting diabetes. Start taking care of your health before it is too late.
If you want to learn more and hear the experiences of others, find a documentary to watch. Some of the most popular are: Reversing Diabetes in 30 days, What the Health, Diabetes: The Hidden Killer, and Fed Up.
Take time to learn how diabetes develops and make changes in your diet. Start exercising and go to check your cholesterol level and blood pressure.
Think about your health before you get diabetes. It is not difficult. It is just a matter of will. Read more on how diet and exercise can help you if you have diabetes and what foods to avoid.

Peoria's Emergency Response and the Heavy Snow Storm
The snippet below is from the Peoria Journal Star during the snowstorm that hit a couple of days ago.
It is interesting from the standpoint that Mr. Rand, Executive Director of AMT, is positioning his ambulance rigs with the Peoria Fire Department (PFD) during the blizzard.
For years Mr. Rand has been against the PFD advancing their life saving services for the people of Peoria and Mr. Rand did not want the PFD EVER to be a transport service for sick or injured patients. Mr. Rand and AMT have had the support of the Peoria's three hospitals which have hospital administrators on AMT's Board of Directors. AMT, hospital administrators, and the Project Medical Director (physician in charge of all ambulances in the area) have taken this issue to the Peoria City Council multiple times over the years to keep the ambulance transport monopoly in the hands of AMT and out of the hands of the PFD. (And the Project Medical Director actually received a salary from AMT for his services.)
Transportation of sick people is a profitable business, and with the help of the hospitals and the doctors that control ambulances in the area, AMT has been successful in keeping ALL of the transport for AMT.
Now, with the snow storm, AMT is bunking down with the PFD. The PFD still cannot transport patients and only one station can give advanced life support medications.
I believe Peorians are actually WORSE off in the blizzard because AMT is now not in their usual locations and will respond when the PFD does. The "divide and conquer" concept has been weakened. The PFD and AMT will arrive at the same time now (at least from four locations), and AMT will be the only agency in ALL of Peoria (except the North Adams Fire Department) allowed to give advanced life support medications or transport the patient.
What happens in times like this if the PFD is the FIRST to arrive at a home where there is a life threatening problem? In other words, if AMT is tied up somewhere else, what happens?
As usual, the PFD cannot administer advanced life support drugs (except the North Adams Station) and not a single PFD station can transport the patient anywhere. The patient us supposed to wait until AMT arrives...and sometimes patients do not have time to wait. They may be too sick and not have the luxury of even a few minutes.
These are hard concepts to understand. But AMT understands very well and so do the Peoria firefighters who face this situation every day with very sick and injured Peorians. But money is involved and so is conflict of interest in the Peoria business community.
And please see this article I wrote two years ago regarding the conflict of interest and monopoly of ambulance services in Peoria.
Here is the article from the Journal Star yesterday:
Ambulances get closer
In response to the storm, Advanced Medical Transport hired extra paramedics, technicians and dispatchers, and added more ambulances to its fleet to make sure residents get the help they need in case of an emergency.
"Let's just say we're kicking it up a notch everywhere," AMT's community relations director Sharon Kennedy said. "You want to have plenty of extra staff. People don't stop getting sick because of the weather. Babies don't stop being born because of the weather."
A first for the company is working with the Peoria Fire Department to place four of its ambulances strategically at fire stations throughout the city. Several more ambulances will be stationed at AMT's headquarters on Sterling Avenue to respond to calls of service from there.
"When they go on calls, they will be working in tandem with us," Kennedy said of the Fire Department personnel. "That's more hands to carry people if you have to shovel their driveway or walk. It will allow our vehicles to be clean of ice, and keep the engines warm and the cab warm for the crew members, as well as keep the back warm for any potential patients."
Housing the ambulances inside the firehouses also will help maintain medications and other drugs at safe temperatures. The ambulances are stationed in South Peoria, Central Peoria, North Peoria and Northwest Peoria.
"That's the first time we've done that," AMT Executive Director Andrew Rand said. "We think it'll be better for patients and certainly improve our response times. We'll be driving in fire truck tire tracks."
