To understand the differences between gasoline and diesel engines it is important to understand how an engine works. Internal combustion engines harness the energy that is released from a small explosion and use it to propel the vehicle forward. The explosion is ignited from a precise combination of oxygen and fuel.
Most vehicles employ four-stroke engines because each piston makes four strokes in the combustion process: the intake stroke, the compression stroke, the combustion stroke and the exhaust stroke. The piston starts at the top of the cylinder. When the intake valve opens to let air into the combustion chamber, the piston moves down (intake stroke). At this point a precise amount of fuel is injected into the combustion chamber, and the piston moves back up and compresses this air/fuel mixture (compression stroke). In gasoline applications, when the piston reaches the top of its stroke, the spark plug emits a spark, igniting the fuel and creating a small explosion which drives the piston down (combustion stroke). When the piston reaches the bottom of the combustion stroke, the exhaust valve opens and the piston moves upward, forcing the exhaust out of the combustion chamber (exhaust stroke), and the cycle repeats.
Most modern vehicle engines feature between four and 12 cylinders, each housing a piston pumping in a timed pattern. Each piston is connected to the crankshaft. As the piston is forced down in the combustion stroke, the crankshaft is forced to spin.
It takes hundreds of explosions per minute to propel a vehicle forward and it requires a great deal of precision to ensure the explosions within each cylinder happen in succession to provide smooth transfer of power from the piston, through the crankshaft and eventually to the wheels of the vehicle. In gasoline applications, the spark plug helps maintain this precision by igniting the air/fuel mixture at the exact moment the piston reaches the top of the compression stroke. But in diesel engines, there are no spark plugs. Diesel engines let in air on the intake stroke and compress the air on the compression stroke. When the piston reaches the peak of the compression stroke, the diesel fuel is injected and then ignited by the heat of the compressed air, forcing the piston back down (combustion stroke).
Traditionally, diesel vehicles have been viewed as loud, smelly and dirty. But those terms hardly apply to today's diesel engines. Modern diesels are cleaner, more efficient and more powerful than their gasoline counterparts. In fact, some diesel engines are said to provide a 25 percent improvement in fuel economy over comparable gasoline engines, while simultaneously reducing pollutants and emissions.
So why aren't diesel vehicles more popular than gasoline vehicles? Even as modern diesels emerge from the stigma left by the diesel engines of the 1970s, they aren't without their drawbacks. Diesel engines are more sensitive than gasoline engines. Fuel quality is important in diesel applications, and, ironically, diesel fuel quality can vary greatly from one filling station to the next. In addition, diesel fuel is not as readily available as gasoline and operating a diesel engine in cold climates requires either a switch to reduced-efficiency blended diesel fuel or the use of fuel additives to prevent the fuel from gelling. Diesel engines also must combat soot-loading in EGR equipped engines.
AMSOIL provides high-quality lubricants, filters and fuel additives for diesel applications that directly address the challenges of maintaining a diesel engine.
AMSOIL diesel oils deliver extraordinary lubrication in diesel commercial, fleet and personal vehicles. They are formulated with high quality synthetic base stocks and premium additives to exceed the higher performance demands of diesel engines. AMSOIL diesel oils withstand the stress of higher heat, higher acid levels and excessive soot-loading found in EGR equipped engines.
AMSOIL Ea Air, Oil and By-Pass Filters provide top-of-the-line filtration performance for diesel engines. Ea Air Filters are the most efficient filters on the market, preventing contaminants from entering sensitive diesel engines through the air intake. Ea Oil Filters offer maximum efficiency over extended drain intervals. Ea By-Pass Oil Filters provide the best possible filtration protection against wear and oil degradation, while removing 39 percent of soot particles less than one micron. AMSOIL also offers Injen/AMSOIL Cold Air Intakes for many diesel applications, providing improved horsepower, torque and efficiency.
AMSOIL diesel fuel additives are formulated to combat the varied quality, cold-temperature performance and other issues diesel fuel can present. They provide improved improved lubricity, maximum pumpability and increased efficiency in diesel engines.
When trying to break into the diesel market, it is important to have a solid knowledge base. Knowledge is the key when approaching diesel enthusiasts.
For the most part, diesel pickup drivers are gear-heads and will bombard Dealers with technical questions. Before attempting to sell to this market, Dealers need to familiarize themselves with AMSOIL literature on diesel oil so they can field questions in a knowledgeable manner.
AMSOIL Director of Dealer Sales Rob Stenberg agrees. "The diesel market is just like any other market in that if you attempt to talk the talk with someone before having a firm grasp on the issues, you will talk yourself out of making any sales," said Stenberg. Stenberg pointed out that, with diesel applications, it is important to know the differences between pre-2007 and post-2007 engines. If the engine is a model-year 2007 or newer it requires a CJ-4 oil. New API classifications are generally backwards compatible, so when a new classification is introduced most motorists with engines pre-dating the new classification use the new oil. However, while CJ-4 oils are backwards compatible, the differences between CJ-4 oils and CI-4+ oils are such that many diesel owners with pre-2007 diesels continue to seek out oils meeting the CI-4+ classification.
"AMSOIL provides diesel oils that exceed the requirements of CJ-4, along with several oils exceeding the requirements of CI-4+," said Eastern Regional Sales Manager Peter Markham. "This allows Dealers to market AMSOIL products to any diesel owner."
"One of the best things a Dealer can do is become familiar with the main differences between different generations of diesel engines. For example, there a significant differences between the old Ford 6.9L IDI, 7.3L non-Power Stroke and the 7.3L Power Stroke launched in 1994 and redesigned in 1998.5. There are further differences with the 6.0L and 6.4L Power Strokes and the same holds true for Duramax 6.5L and 6.6L applications and Cummins 5.9L and 6.7L applications.
Each engine category contains sub-generations where engine and powertrain design or manufacturing/production changes were made that necessitate different discussions and recommendations.
An AMSOIL Dealer who knows these differences and can talk about them in depth is the one with the potential for great sales in the diesel market," said Markham.
"That's not to say that Dealers who don't have extensive diesel knowledge can't sell in this market," said Western Regional Sales Manager Steve LePage. "AMSOIL has established a great reputation and diesel owners know about our products."
Simply reading product data bulletins and becoming familiar with which products fit which applications can lead to sales.
"The diesel market is just like any other," said LePage. "The more you know, the better off you are, but opportunity exists at all levels."
While diesel specific knowledge is key to gaining credibility in the diesel market, it is important to have a well rounded knowledge of other basic areas that are important to pickup drivers. Air filtration and air intake systems, injection systems, differentials, transmissions, diesel fuel and by-pass filtration are other areas on which to concentrate when approaching diesel prospects.
"AMSOIL provides a great array of products for the diesel market," said Central Regional Sales Manager Tim Golden. "AMSOIL Dealers have everything they need to penetrate this market. The more a Dealer knows about the issues diesel owners face and how AMSOIL products address those issues, the more earning potential that Dealer has."
For example, fuel quality is a big issue in the diesel world. Diesel fuel quality varies and diesel fuel is susceptible to contamination from water, suspended particulate matter and the formation of wax in cold weather. In addition, the mandate for ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) created new challenges such as increased pump and injector wear and fuel that is more difficult to treat. AMSOIL provides diesel fuel additives that are formulated to compensate for the quality variances of different fuels (including biodiesel) and the deficiencies of today's ULSD for better engine operation.
"AMSOIL offers diesel fuel additives that provide real results," said Markham. "In northern climates, if you get some fuel with a high cloud point you could find yourself stranded somewhere. Offer prospects with diesel vehicles a bottle of Diesel Concentrate Plus Cold Flow Improver as a way to make sure they are protected."
Most consumers have one issue that dominates all others. For diesel drivers, it could be fuel economy, fuel flow, soot control, drain interval, price or any other vehicle related topic. Discovering what is most important to that person is the key to making sales.
"It is so important to listen," said Stenberg. "Oftentimes prospects will tell you the key to making the sale without actually saying what it is. If you pay attention to what's being said, you can actually learn which issue is the most important to a prospect, and once you know that, you'll know which AMSOIL product to offer them."
AMSOIL offers many products for diesel engines, including a full-range of diesel oils, drivetrain lubricants, filters, fuel additives and more. AMSOIL Dealers can offer diesel owners lubricants of the highest quality, improved efficiency, extended drain intervals, ultrafine filtration, improved horsepower and torque and more. No matter what the issue, AMSOIL Dealers have the tools to help diesel owners get the most from their vehicles.


Jesus, referring to a "penny" asked, "Whose is this image and superscription?" When told it was Caesar, He said, ''Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's" (Matthew 22:20-21). Since Tiberius was Caesar at the time, this denarius type is attributed by scholars as the "penny" referred to in the Bible.


text: Q: How can I prevent clients from communicating with each other when setting up and OpenVPN server? I'm trying to configure my OpenVPN server (Ubuntu 16.04) such that clients cannot communicate with any other device except for the OpenVPN server itself. I've tried removing client-to-client from my server config, but this does not stop pings from going through, presumably because the OS is routing packets from tun0 back through the interface. I've tried the solution proposed here, but it had no effect. I'm using ufw to configure my firewall, and tried adding this rule to iptables both directly and in /etc/ufw/before.rules, but nothing changes. I've also investigated using OpenVPN's internal packet filter, but documentation on this feature is sparse. The sample server config states that "to force clients to only see the server, you will also need to appropriately firewall the server's TUN/TAP interface," but it's not clear to me how this can be accomplished using ufw or iptables.

STARRING: Seth MacFarlane, Charlize Theron, Amanda Seyfried, Liam Neeson, Giovanni Ribisi, Neil Patrick Harris, Sarah Silverman
Like ducks to water: Theron and MacFarlane
With artless cheer, Seth MacFarlane sets out to do "the general depressing awfulness" of the bloodthirsty American Wild West what he did to teddy bears everywhere with 2012's game-changing Ted. When we meet lily-livered sheep farmer Albert (MacFarlane), he's in a decidedly bad way. Dumped by his girlfriend (Seyfried), who smoothly replaces him with the smarmy Moustachery proprietor (Harris), Albert is inconsolable, even to his BFF, Edward (Ribisi), and Edward's devout prostitute fiancée, Ruth (Silverman). Then he meets Anna (Theron), who is button-bright and sassy but regrettably burdened — although Albert doesn't know it — with a psycho-bandit husband (Neeson).
And off we go, playing silly buggers with folklore. "My worst fear is to OD on a recreational drug," Albert confides to Anna while nibbling on a dope-laced cookie. Producer, director, co-writer and leading man MacFarlane has more than that to worry about in a profanity-laced tall tale whose gross-out gags sometimes don't know when to quit. There are plenty of positives for ballast, though: the catchy dialogue is fresh out of a contempo sitcom, the cast's comic timing tirelessly flies and the left-field feel revels, Blazing Saddles–style, in the sublimely ridiculous.

Blog Teams Ecuador Landon Donovan's final USMNT game spoiled by Ecuador
Landon Donovan's final USMNT game spoiled by Ecuador
Jorge Belon 12 October, 2014 Ecuador, General Football News, Jürgen Klinsmann, Match Reports, Reviews, USA
Mix Diskerud celebrates after scoring the goal that gave the Yanks the lead against Ecuador on Friday night, in the 1-1 draw. Photo provided by bleacherreport.com.
The Yanks nearly sent off the greatest player in U.S. Soccer history with a victory.
In the 88 minute Enner Valencia wild swerving goal denied the United States to give Landon Donovan a victory in his final match with the USMNT, as his goal tied the game at 1-1 on Friday night at Rentschler Field.
Valencia revived the ball less than 10-yards away from the top of the penalty box. He quickly changed his direction towards the goal, and right before U.S. center back Tim Ream could completely shut his angle down, the West Ham United forward fired a shot.
The ball first flew over the head of Ream and then dipped after it passed his body. The ball was heading to the left hand side of the goal and then it suddenly swerved to the right and the Yanks goalie Brad Guzan was left standing in the dust of Valencia powerful shot. His long range goal would level the game 1-1.
"I couldn't see it come off his foot," Guzan told Soccer By Ives. "It came over the top of Tim Ream. As soon as it came over, it was just constantly leaving me. I took a step to my right, nine times out of 10 that either gets blocked or you probably make a save but unfortunately tonight it wasn't to be."
Though in the first half, the Yanks were in control of the match. A big reason for their dominance was Landon Donovan; he was moving the Yanks offense and creating lethal chances from the very start of the match. The active start for the Yanks would pay off quickly, in the fifth minute Mix Diskerud would put the U.S. ahead with a close powerful low strike to the bottom right hand corner of the net.
The goal came through a beautiful build up play that had four different players touch the ball before Diskerud hammered the ball from inside the heart of the penalty box. After the goal, the USMNT kept pressuring the Ecuadorian defense, and it seemed that they were going to add on to the lead. Even Donovan came close of scoring in his final match, but his shot dinged of the right hand post and denied the Hollywood script ending.
At the 21 minute, 22-year-old Joe Gyau was forced to leave the game early after picking up a knee injury.
"It was a bummer to lose Joe Gyau with a potential knee issue," Klinsmann told Soccer By Ives. "We will figure that out with the medical staff by tomorrow morning. We hope it's not so bad."
Donovan was subbed off at the 41 minute, and the entire stadium erupted and cheered him off the field for the last time in USMNT uniform, and the 14-year career as a U.S. international came to end.
"It's a surreal feeling," Donovan told Soccer By Ives. "I'm not overly comfortable with that kind of attention on me, and so it was a battle with myself to just try to enjoy it and allow it and appreciate it, while balancing still trying to play a game."
The Yanks attack and defense began to slip a little after Donovan left, but the USMNT held to keep the 1-0 lead going into the halftime break. In the second half, the South Americans stepped their offense up and kept Guzan busy in the second half making four out of his six saves in the final 45 minutes.
Eventually near the end of the game Valencia would crash the party with his goal. However, at the last seconds of stoppage time 21-year-old forward Bobby Wood had a clear chance to win the game. As he approached the Ecuadorian goalie Máximo Banguera from the left hand side of the post.
Wood had a clear chance to take the winning shot, but instead the young 1860 Munich forward attempted to pass the ball to substitute forward Chris Wondolowski, who made a run to the center of the box. Before the pass could get to Wondolowski, the ball was cleared out of the box from the Ecuadorian defender and the game would end 1-1.
"I think we saw a really entertaining game," USMNT Head Coach Jürgen Klinsmann told Soccer By Ives. "It was a nice game between both sides. I think we controlled the first 60 minutes and did really, really well over those 60 minutes. We should've scored the second goal, simple as that, to close it down."
The USMNT will be in action again on Tuesday at Boca Raton, Fla. when they host CONCACAF rivals Honduras at 8 p.m. Eastern Time.

Q: In Inno Setup is it possible to add conditional statements to what in the [Run] section gets executed? Alternatively is it possible to manually update the built in progress bar?
Basically I have 2 MSIs included and using Inno Setup as a bootstrapper, and depending on user input one or both of the MSIs are to be installed.  I have something working using Exec statements in CurStepChanged but it doesn't update the progress bar as the files are extracted and it looks like the installer is stalled.  I guess the end result is I want some progress bar updates while the files are extracted to the temp folder.  The following is my current code:
procedure CurStepChanged(CurStep: TSetupStep);
var
    ResultCode: Integer;
begin
    if(CurStep = ssInstall) then begin
        if(InstallServer) then begin
            ExtractTemporaryFile('ServerSetup.msi');
            Exec('msiexec',ExpandConstant('/i "{tmp}\ServerSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Server\" ALLUSERS=2'),'', SW_SHOW, ewWaitUntilTerminated, ResultCode);
        end;
        if(InstallClient) then begin
            ExtractTemporaryFile('ClientSetup.msi');
            Exec('msiexec',ExpandConstant('/i "{tmp}\ClientSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Client\" ALLUSERS=2'),'', SW_SHOW, ewWaitUntilTerminated, ResultCode);
        end;
    end;
end;

A: Why not simply try something like this:
[Files]
Source: ClientSetup.msi; DestDir: {tmp}; Flags: deleteafterinstall; Components: Client
Source: ServerSetup.msi; DestDir: {tmp}; Flags: deleteafterinstall; Components: Server

[Run]
Filename: msiexec.exe; Parameters: /i "{tmp}\ClientSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Client\" ALLUSERS=2; WorkingDir: {tmp}; StatusMsg: Installing client; Components: Client
Filename: msiexec.exe; Parameters: /i "{tmp}\ServerSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Server\" ALLUSERS=2; WorkingDir: {tmp}; StatusMsg: Installing server; Components: Server

[Components]
Name: Client; Description: Client Installation
Name: Server; Description: Server Installation

Of course you don't necessarily have to use Components. You did not write how you decide which installer to run. If you need more complex logic you could also use Check functions as in:
[Files]
Source: ClientSetup.msi; DestDir: {tmp}; Flags: deleteafterinstall; Check: CheckClient
Source: ServerSetup.msi; DestDir: {tmp}; Flags: deleteafterinstall; Check: CheckServer

[Run]
Filename: msiexec.exe; Parameters: /i "{tmp}\ClientSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Client\" ALLUSERS=2; WorkingDir: {tmp}; StatusMsg: Installing client; Check: CheckClient
Filename: msiexec.exe; Parameters: /i "{tmp}\ServerSetup.msi" /qb INSTALLDIR="{code:GetInstallPath}\Server\" ALLUSERS=2; WorkingDir: {tmp}; StatusMsg: Installing server; Check: CheckServer

[Code]
function CheckClient: Boolean;
begin
  Result := WhateverCondition;
end;

function CheckServer: Boolean;
begin
  Result := WhateverOtherCondition;
end;


The powan, Coregonus lavaretus (L.) is endemic to only two British waters, Loch Lomond and Loch Eck, Scotland. This thesis describes the seasonal and longer term growth processes of the two populations, concentrating on growth in length back-calculated from scales, factors affecting recruitment and mortality, reproductive cycles, and seasonal deposition and mobilisation of storage products, particularly lipid. The interrelationships of these cycles is discussed. The populations differ in their diet and duration of feeding, and it is shown that most of the inter-population differences in seasonal cycles of growth relate to these feeding differences. The Loch Eck population is the more variable. In addition to adult and immature powan, a third category is identified, termed adolescents. These are fish which are entering their first reproductive cycle. Immature and adolescent fish are analysed separately and compared with the adults. There are some differences in seasonal cycles between the juveniles and adults, mainly in relation to the presence or absence of the reproductive cycle. A preliminary histological study of the ovaries of adolescent females is carried out. Comparison of historical data with the results of the present study shows that there has been little change in the Loch Lomond powan in the past 200 years. Both lochs are coming under increasing human pressure, and conservational measures urgently need to be taken if the powan populations are to survive.

DDoS Attacks Cost $40,000 Per Hour: Incapsula
A study commissioned by Incapsula shows that, not surprisingly, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks can have a serious financial impact on many targeted organizations.
The report is based on the responses of system administration, network, developer, security and website operations employees from a total of 270 North American organizations of various sizes (between 250 and over 10,000 employees).
According to Incapsula, 45% of the respondents said their organization suffered a DDoS attack at some point. However, organizations with 500 or more employees are more likely to be hit, the attack costs in their case are higher, and they require more employees to mitigate the cyberattack.
Survey respondents estimated the cost of a successful DDoS attack at $40,000 per hour. A total of 36% of respondents said the per hour cost of a DDoS attack is between $5,000 and $19,999. Others said the cost of an attack per hour is less than $5,000 (15%), between $20,000 and $59,999 (17%), between $60,000 and $99,999 (17%), and over $100,000 (15%).
Considering that 49% of attacks last between 6 and 24 hours, the average cost is estimated at roughly $500,000. However, the security company says some attacks can result in much higher costs.
Organizations that suffered DDoS attacks also had to deal with non-financial consequences, such as loss of customer trust (43%), customer data theft (33%), and loss of intellectual property (19%). Over half of the respondents said they were forced to replace hardware or software following an attack. In some cases, the malicious actors used DDoS to mask other activities — 50% of those who took part in the survey said they had a piece of malware installed or activated.
From a financial standpoint, the IT group is the one that's most impacted, with 35% of respondents naming this operational area. However, the report shows that customer sales, security and risk management, customer service, marketing and PR, and legal departments are also affected.
"We believe that with the costs for attackers decreasing and costs for businesses increasing, DDoS targets have broadened from financial institutions and government sites to any company that depends on its online channels, like online retailers and SaaS vendors," commented Marc Gaffan, CEO of Incapsula. "With ransom requests as low as a few hundred dollars yielding positive returns for attackers, even small technology start-ups are being targeted and taken down."
A survey of 450 companies in North America conducted by Neustar earlier this year revealed that fourteen percent of companies believe a DDoS outage would trigger losses of between $50,000 and $100,000 per hour, while 29 percent said the cost would be $100,000 or more per hour.
According to Akamai's State of the Internet report for the second quarter of 2014, the overall number of DDoS attacks has declined. However, DDoS is a type of attack in which some threat groups invest significant resources.
For example, some cybercriminals are infecting Linux servers with malware and using them to launch powerful attacks. Others have been amplifying their attacks by crafting large DNS TXT records.
The complete DDoS impact study from Incapsula is available online.

The past week has seen a large number of companies reporting to the market. We saw the currency effect in particular yesterday with RELX who increased their dividend by over 30% in sterling terms. Solid sterling dividend increases also came from Astra Zeneca, Glaxo, Royal Dutch, Smith & Nephew and others. Most did not actually put up their dividend in dollars, but the fall in the pound meant good increases.
ITV produced solid numbers that showed that the Brexit fears were well overdone, especially as they showed a currency gain as we suggested last week. With the strong gain in in non NAR revenue, over half of their revenues now come from this source. Overall though I have been disappointed by the reporting season as dividend increases have been low.
The week ahead continues to be very busy with another raft of companies reporting to the market.

It is complete with forest and lakeside walks and is accessed on the southern tip of the town by road and by its marina. The Demesne was once part of the Portumna castle estate. The forest is home to Deer and other wildlife along with an exotic array of flora and fauna which inject vibrant colour into every view.
It is a moderate walk but you are advised to dress sensibly.There are signposts and trails to aid your trek.


This trendy Eastside spot serves a lively mix of hipsters, vegans and craft-beer lovers.
: This trendy Echo Park hangout is housed in a century-old former vaudeville theater, combining a quartet of eating/lounge spaces, including a cloistered patio. Locals like the retro ambience and flock here in droves, making for good people-watching. A pub area boasting a long bar serves up quirky, compelling cocktails. Our pick hit is the Kentucky Misfit, with Bowen's whiskey, fresh lemon juice and house-made apricot chili syrup. Cocktailians may have to defer to beer lovers, however; the restaurant has 72 running taps that are rotated daily. From golden ale with passion fruit to dark coffee stout, there's loads to explore. The food complements the brew selection well, with a surprising number of vegan dishes. Watermelon salad with cucumber, jícama, radish, pickled fennel and shiso, or seared kale with toasted pepitas and lemon-maple vinaigrette are both good options. Flatbreads, fancy pizzas (vegan banh mi, ratatouille) and a fine beef burger are popular; there's even a nod to Brits, with bangers and mash and fish 'n' chips. Desserts are the least compelling component, but white nectarine gelato from Pazzo Gelato is a decent choice.

It is easy enough to eat healthy and delicious foods during the warmer months when you have a lot of options in the supermarket. This is no reason, of course, to let yourself go in the colder months. Here are some of the most highly recommended superfoods for winter you can eat this season.
Beans can be cooked in a number of delicious ways and they are the perfect comfort food for those cold nights. It is definitely one of the best superfoods for winter you can easily get at the supermarket. The best part is, pinto beans and kidney beans are high in antioxidants. Best to choose low-sodium beans to keep things really healthy.
Chocolate figures prominently in many holiday dinner desserts. Now, this is one of those superfoods for winter many will get behind on. Make sure to eat dark chocolate, however, to maximize the health benefit. What health benefit is that? Dark chocolate reduces the risk of contracting cardiovascular diseases. It's good and it's healthy, too.
One of the best superfoods for winter that is rich in antioxidants is the humble prune. Aside from its antioxidant properties, they are also great energy sources (without risk of spiking your blood sugar levels, too). They are also great sources for potassium which benefits your cardiovascular health.
Just because it is no longer summer, you cannot have any more of those well-loved berries. The colder months are the season for cranberries and it is one of the easiest to find superfoods for winter. Cranberries are rich in antioxidants and they are good for your immune system and cardiovascular system.
To get that boost in antioxidants, NS-mart recommends Swissoats A3. Like the superfoods for winter in this list, it contains a host of ingredients with a lot of health benefits: lutein for your eyes, ascorbic acid for your skin, and many others.
Here is part two of this list of the most highly recommended superfoods for winter.


After months of planning and rehearsal, this week my undergraduate thesis performance as Walker and Ned in Richard Greenberg's THREE DAYS OF RAIN opens!
THREE DAYS OF RAIN is being presented as one of eight productions in STAMP 2015's spring season. STAMP 2015 is a theatre company in residence at Boston University's School of Theatre of which I am a proud member.
The production is directed by Eliza Ryan and runs April 29 - May 2 at the College of Fine Arts' Studio 270A@808.
THREE DAYS OF RAIN also features fellow STAMP company members Jake Murphy as Pip/Theo and Jenna Bilgore as Nan/Lina. The production is directed by Eliza Ryan and stage managed by Chandler Dalton, with scenic design by Ariane McDonald, lighting design by Kelly Martin, and costume design by Emma Connelly.
"Do things really stay secret that long?" Richard Greenberg's intricate drama THREE DAYS OF RAIN demonstrates the mysteries of the heart that parents bequeath to their children. Greenberg constructs a split-level view of a family history with six roles written for three actors to play two generations: the first act is the family in 1995 dreaming the past; the second act is the family in 1960 dreaming the future. When the play is finished, the audience will know more than any of the characters ever could. Help STAMP 2015 put the puzzle together at Boston University School of Theatre April 19 - May 2!
I am so proud to bring my undergraduate training to culmination sharing the stage with two close and gifted peers in such a heartfelt, challenging, and vital contemporary play. It has been a wild ride and it is a privilege to share my work at the School of Theatre one last time.

DJ Kennedy traded to Memphis Grizzlies

Share All sharing options for: DJ Kennedy traded to Memphis Grizzlies
DJ Kennedy played four years with the Red Storm, two games with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and is now moving his professional career to Memphis.
Former St. John's Red Storm guard DJ Kennedy has been traded to the Memphis Grizzlies, sources say. After a short stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers, the former Johnnies stand out is on the move.
Kennedy was dealt on Wednesday night by the Cavs in exchange for young guard Jeremy Pargo and a future second round draft selection. Pargo, a former Gonzaga Bulldog, appeared in 44 games for the Grizzlies in 2011-12 while averaging just 2.9 points per game.
Memphis now receives a hard working guard in Kennedy who is still searching for a big break in the NBA. After playing four full seasons with St. John's, he signed a contract with Cleveland late during this past season. Kennedy saw significant time in two games in April, scoring 12 points in one of them against Washington.
At St. John's, Kennedy scored 11.7 points and pulled down 6.1 rebounds per game during his career. Always known as an exceptional rebounder despite his size and position, Kennedy is a well-rounded player who knows what it takes to contribute to a team's success in any role.
The Grizzlies, who lost a heartbreaking 7-game series to the Clippers in the first round of this year's playoffs, are still a team built to win. Zach Randolph, Rudy Gay, and Marc Gasol headline a squad that won 41 of its 66 games in 2011-12, and perhaps DJ Kennedy could play a relevant role for head coach Lionel Hollins in the future.
Kennedy stands as one of Steve Lavin's two St. John's products in the NBA. Moe Harkless was drafted fifteenth overall by the Philadelphia 76ers last month and recently inked his contract with the team.
Nothing is more important to a college program than the success of its former players at the next level. As Lavin found out at UCLA and is acting upon at St. John's, recruiting becomes easier and more effective when young high school athletes can see visible evidence that their dream can come true.
When he stepped onto the floor in a Cavaliers uniform in April, Kennedy's dream did finally come true. But now, he needs to maintain a career - and the next stop is Graceland.

Flesh-Eating Bacteria Kills College Football Player
ByLAURA OWINGS, ABC News Medical Unit
June 8, 2006 — -- On April 28, Devin Adair, a healthy, 21-year-old tight end for the University of Tulsa's football team, mysteriously died after spending a week in the hospital.
While it was obvious that he was very ill, he had no visible wounds to help doctors ascertain what was wrong.
When the autopsy report came back last week, the pieces of the puzzle came together: Flesh-eating bacteria had killed him.
Also known as necrotizing fasciitis, flesh-eating bacteria are potent enough to turn a wound as minor as a pinprick or paper cut into a massive infection causing amputation or even death. In Oklahoma, Adair's death is the latest of about a dozen people who have died from the infection since 2003.
Nationwide, there are about 500 reported cases a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The infection is caused by bacteria, usually a type known as Group A Streptococcus (GAS), which thrive naturally on the throat and on the skin.
The good news: Few people in contact with GAS will develop an infection, and it doesn't appear to be very contagious. The bad news: No one yet knows why GAS sometimes becomes invasive.
"These infections are very sporadic and unpredictable, and pop up all the time," said Dr. John Shanley, director of Infectious Disease at the University of Connecticut.
GAS bacteria can enter the body through cuts, scrapes and even bruises. Sometimes, as in Adair's case, there is no identifiable entry point.
When the bacteria reach the blood, muscles or lungs, they can destroy muscles, fat and skin tissue -- hence the term "flesh eating."
"It is very aggressive and changes right before your eyes. It can start as a pimple on the leg and then involve the entire leg in less than a half hour," said Dr. Ferdinando Mirarchi, professor of emergency medicine at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
If left untreated, the infected area begins to swell and appear bluish, white or flaky. Once it has progressed to this point, amputation of the infected area and immediate antibiotic treatment usually are necessary.
As scary as this sounds, most experts agree that there is little that can be done in the way of prevention.
"Just cleaning wounds with soap and water is your best shot, but is probably of little use in general," said Dr. Carl Schultz, professor of emergency medicine at the University of California Irvine.
Any type of abnormally painful inflammation of the skin could signal a possibly serious infection, said Dr. Pascal Imperato, professor and chair of Preventive Medicine and Community Health at the State University of New York.
Therefore, "early diagnosis is essential" to save lives, he said, although as Adair's case shows, this isn't always possible.
Flesh-eating bacterial infections are more common in people with weakened immune systems, diabetics, or intravenous drug users -- but healthy people also are vulnerable.
In fact, Mirarchi said "we are seeing an increase in number of cases throughout the years, but to what that is due remains unknown."
Since 2003, 10 people in Oklahoma have died from necrotizing fasciitis and the CDC states that approximately 660 infections were attributed to the bacteria in 2003. Deaths weren't available.
CDC officials also say that while cases can pop up in small clusters of people, it is important to remember that they will not spread across the country and that the GAS bacteria in general doesn't seem to be very contagious.
Also, some experts question whether the infections are becoming more common.
Dr. William Schaffner, professor and chair at Vanderbilt's Department of Preventative Medicine, said that this bacteria were "not epidemic or communicable in the conventional sense" and that perhaps "we are just better at making the diagnosis."
Still, the random nature of flesh-eating bacteria and its ability to infect both the healthy and sick is frightening. Shanley said this is evident in the nature of the treatment.
"Antibiotics alone are never enough, and extensive surgery is the rule."

April 30, 2017 – Completed Art Projects!
I've finally gotten around to finishing (and starting) some of my art projects this weekend! The first one to display is a Van Gogh reproduction I've been working on (on and off) for a while: Wheat Field with Cypress. I used alcohol-based marker on smooth bristol, and it was my first actual piece using marker (outside of a couple tests).
Next, I finished a painting I had started a while ago and gave up on. I essentially went back and brought it up to a spot where I didn't want to touch it anymore; I'm not happy with it either way, but it's in a state of completion now. Acrylic on canvas.
Lastly, I started and finished a painting that I'm a little on the fence on. I like some elements of it, but I don't know how I feel overall. I likely could have done a bit better on the composition of it as well as the detail work in some areas. Acrylic on canvas.
I recently completed a larger painting of a photo I found online (free license). I finished half of it and liked where it was going, but I'm not really happy with how it ended up. It's acrylic on 9″x12″ canvas.
I recently cleared out some of the stuff I was working on that was taking most of my attention. I wanted to get back into painting but wanted something small and quick to work on. This piece was done on 6″ by 6″ acrylic paper based on a photo I took.
Here's one of my paintings from last month. I used an existing painting to get a better idea for subject matter. It's acrylic paint on a 10″ x 10″ canvas.
Here's a quick painting I did. Acrylics on Masonite board.
Here's my first attempt at painting a wine bottle (or anything glass). I ended up posting it on an art criticism subreddit and got some great feedback for improvement.


Do you trust your instinct? The voice within that guides you through those times, in which you should be paying attention? Your inner wisdom should be trusted and cherished, but it does take practice to learn to listen to it. Often times, we drowned out our own guidance system by listening to others, and to by listening to our fears. Our fears, many stemming from childhood trauma, and past experiences are there to keep us safe, but if they get too loud, they out- scream the true voice we should be listening to.
Trusting your inner wisdom also requires you to be silent. Daily meditation, allows your intuition to come forth. Meditation teaches you to calm your mind, and to be in the present, a great way to release anxiety, and that above-mentioned fear.
Journaling is another way to learn to listen to your inner wisdom. Keeping track of your hunches, and how they turned out, will allow you to grow your trust in them.
Include your inner wisdom in your gratitude routine. Thank it every time, you have experienced a hunch, and be grateful that you have listened to it. Acknowledge it's presence to allow it to grow into a more prominent partner.
to see some of the results already.
the fact that I am sleeping better. With the colder temperatures comes the relief from some of my allergies. I am thankful for each moment that I am at ease.
I do trust my instincts and try hard to tune out all the noise and listen to what they have to say. They always guide me in the right direction.
I'm definitely grateful for it being cooler. Fall is a lovely season and I enjoy its beautiful colors here in New England. Wishing you continued success in all your goals!
So True. I've been slacking up on my daily meditation and gratitude work. Thank you for giving me that little reminder that I need to get back into it.Yes I totally agree trust your inner voice (I'm speaking from experience after going through a horrible divorce). I always remind myself to block out fear and think good thoughts Fear attracts Fear!!!!

Mount this contemporary wall sconce horizontally or vertically.
13 1/2" high x 4 1/2" wide. Extends 5" from the wall.
Uses two maximum 60 watt T10 standard-medium base bulbs (not included).
A modern wall sconce with Mid-Century lines by Minka Lavery.
Chrome finish metal backplate, arm, and band. Opal glass.
Do the light shades screw into the fixture. I am looking for a glass replacement shade?
Does the lamp shade have a E27 screw base?
This uses two maximum 60 watt T10 standard-medium (E26) base bulbs.
Is this title 24 compliant?
BEST ANSWER: Per the manufacturer, it is Title 24 Compliant.
BEST ANSWER: The backplate height is 4.5 inches and the backplate width is 0.75 inches.
I put one of these sconces on either side of my large medicine cabinet in my newly remodeled bath. They are beautiful. I was surprised to discover that I can not use standard size bulbs. This was never mentioned in the descrtiption. I had to make a special trip out to buy long thin bulbs that would fit in the cover.
I choose this fixture over the George Kovaks fixture that is very similar. I like this one better b/c the glass cylinder shades to not taper like on the Kovaks fixture (I think his looks romanesque in a way). I also like the overall length of this fixture in lieu of the kovaks. The price on this one is awesome, about $25 less than the kovaks.
Good product, I would change one thing.
I mounted 2 of these around a mirror using existing wiring. See picture. The picture lighting doesn't do it justice, it looks great.
I had to mount very near a wall on each side, and could not put in the exterior screw on one side of each fixture. Still mounts OK with one screw. But I wish they put the screw locations on the sides parallel to the lamp. You are guaranteed plenty of working room there, and the lamps would make the screws less visible.
Also, used the backplate to hold the fixture while wiring - very convenient. See picture too.
I agree with the reviewer who had also looked at the George Kovac light. I like it better, and it is less expensive. I looked at lights similar to this one that were $200 to $600. I this this one is just as attractive and will work better than some of the more expensive items I looked at.
All was great with instructions and the product. Delivery was fine as promised.
We put this fixture over over our kitchen sink in our 1962 house and are very pleased with it. It is attractive, but simple and quiet in design thus does not distract from our dining pendant near by. My only caveat is that the brightness is centered, leaving the ends of the glass cylinders darker, but I suspect that may be a bulb issue, and it has not bothered me to the point of trying different bulbs.
The top glass broke on one of them when putting it together!
We installed two of these lights in a large bathroom. Great quality!
looks great in both of our newly remodeled bathrooms.


Small tweaks in your water-wasting behavior will save countless gallons of the valuable liquid.
Do you turn on your faucet and let it run or take a longer shower, not really giving much thought to how much water you're actually wasting?
Actually reuse your water: If you're boiling pasta or emptying out your pet bowl, don't just head straight for your kitchen sink. Leftover water can be used for watering house plants or outdoor vegetation.
Order your water wisely: When eating out, tap water is often served before ordering your actual meal. Only ask for water if you plan on drinking it. Also, be mindful about your refills. Only accept them if you plan to consume the additional fluid. And remember: it takes extra water to clean those used glasses.
Don't let it all go down the drain: We've all heard this one, but it's important to turn off the faucet in the middle of brushing your teeth, washing your face or shaving. Remember that if you let the water flow while cleaning your smile for the recommended two minutes, you're actually wasting three gallons of water.
Take care of your food scraps: Running the waste disposal in your sink uses, on average, a gallon of water per person per day. So be mindful of these options. Dispose your food scraps in the garbage, or if you're feeling really green, start a backyard compost. And if you don't have a yard, there are indoor composting options. After all, if NYC apartment residents are doing it, why can't you?

Just remember, using less water is for the greater good and better for your wallet, too.

The gamers continue to advance if they answer that Canada is the country with the most kilometers of sea coast, and that gothic is the artistic style that prevailed until the renaissance, in addition to remembering that pijama is the clothing used to sleep.
This will make it easier to overcome the challenge, and if it ends with knowing that Adalid the military warlord was called in antiquity, the level will then be achieved.
This phase is surpassed by answering that Chayanne is a singer, dancer and Puerto Rican actor and that zapico is the tool used to dig in hard ground, while neglect is the lack of attention, omission and negligence.

It is my understanding that most of those athletes who read my blog don't need my remarks on how to conduct training and specially the sports etiquette, but it is our duty to spread the word because I am sure that I am not the only one who suffers in silence of those issues. Couple years ago I was talking to a friend who is a Social Worker and she told me, why instead of complaining don't you do something about it, have a glass of wine and write about it. At the time I walked away from that discussion thinking I wouldn't be able to make changes, which nobody would care or help me changing anything. Well boy was I wrong. Few weeks ago I have wrote about Lap Swimming Etiquette and my blog post got well over 200 hits and more than one hundred shares. Someone even made a condensed version and sent it to the local papers. Now did it make a difference in the pool, maybe, maybe not "YET" but eventually it will. So thanks for those who got involve and let's hope this blog post will also spread like wild fire.
So while I was talking to pro runner, competitive athletes and enthusiastic Sunday morning runners we all came up to few rules or guide lines if you will. Doesn't matter if its on a local dirt track or a high end Olympic calibrated run track, those are some accepted practices or like I enjoy to call it "Run Track Etiquette".
1. If you find yourself alone on a track it really doesn't matter to anyone which direction you're going, it's also the perfect time to try turning right for a change.
In the presence of others athletes you should take the following principles in consideration.
2. Some facilities have dedicated direction for the day of the week, if it is the case, follow that rule, same goes for the designated run/walk lanes. In CFB Petawawa DunDonald Hall the direction change every day, and the walk/run lanes are marked in the track itself.
3. Run counter-clockwise, to make it easy for you, you should always turn left. If you decide to run clockwise or turning right, it's your choice but you should run on the outside lane of the track. Stay out of the way of runners who are training and running in the accepted direction.
4. Stay alert and don't use ear phones or dime down the volume so you can ear if someone is saying something to you while running. Very often will you know which side a faster runner will pass you by the sounds he make with his foot or plain and simple, he or she will tell you. Look both ways before entering onto a track. Even the most experienced runner have been caught by surprise.
5. Bicycles, scooters, roller blades, etc. should not allowed on tracks. For the most part animals are restricted from tracks. Even if they aren't, it is wise not to allow them for safety reasons. If you do bring a pet, be sure it is secured away from the running surface and of course clean up after it. Tracks are designed for humans to run and walk on. Just try dodging a straying dog while running full tilt is way easier said than done, plus if we wanted to dodge dogs we would go do our training on the road! The fact is that even leashes aren't secure enough nor short enough and as you think your dog is behaving very well, he will give himself some loose and that loose is just what you don't want while you're coming by on a full sprint.
6. The faster the runner, the more inside the lane reserved for him or her. Tracks with lanes are numbered from inside (nearest the infield or field house) to the outside (usually near the bleachers or wall). Most commonly they are from 1-4 to 1-8 depending how big is the track. In the case of a 4 lanes track which is the most common in the Canadian Forces; Lanes 1 & 2 are reserved for runners, lane 1 should be for the fastest ones, lane 2 is for the next faster runners. Lane 3 & 4 would be joggers and walking.
7. It's ok for slower runners to run further inside but be alert to move when faster runners approach from behind. It is far more dangerous for a fast runner to change lanes and pass. The main idea is, keep your Situation Awareness (SA) up at all time by looking and lessoning of what's going on around you. That also go for those who perform sprints, once the distance or interval has been reached and your slowing down quickly, look behind then change lanes if it is require and safe to do so, remember that a runner behind you might already started to adjust his course according to this SA.
8. If you are the faster runner and you are approaching from behind, give ample notice and call-out (just like with cycling). The traditional phrase to use it "track". Which means move over someone faster is coming through. You can alternatively use "on your left" or "on the inside" to indicate you are coming by on the inside. Do not go whizzing by an inch from someone's shoulder as if to non-verbally say "get out of my way". This is rude! It can also startle someone who then may in fact move into your path causing a full collision.
9. If you hear "track" or "on your left" or "on the inside" either move directly off to the infield (in the case of just walking or having just stopped from your run) or move out to lane 2 or 3 or so. If there are no lanes, move out about 4-6 feet. But the most important thing to know if you don't know what to do or simply didn't understand exactly what was said, stay put or carrion in the same direction. Keep your SA up before making a radical move.
10. It's ok to politely mention to someone on the inside lane that you will be doing a workout in lane 1 and would they mind moving out a lane. Just stay polite and explain that you will perform intervals, sprint or high tempo training and you just want to make sure no one gets injured.
11. If a track team is working out on the track – they take priority over individuals. If you can workout on the farthest outside lanes without interfering and the coaches allow you, then do so. Otherwise, come back another time. This of course is very frustrating. If you are on a DND facility, you may think that as a CF member that track is there for you to use as you please but in fact if a team has booked the track, they most then likely have paid for it and they own it for the time being, and are liable for everything happening on the track while they use it.
12. It is always encouraged for responsible children and parents to come out to train. It's good parental role modeling for the kids even if they aren't running or walking. It's also something that many single parents have to resort to. Bring balls and activities to keep them busy. Often you can even get them to run some laps. However, not all children have the self-control necessary. You know your child best. Please consider all the others on the track and obviously your children, no one want to be the one who injured your kid and they are a the high to take seriously hurt if they get tangled in a runners feet.
13. Finally if you are playing sports inside the track, or what we call in the military, the field house, please always look in both directions before exiting that area. It happens more often than you think that someone gets smoked hard and is off their training for a while because of it. If you make a mistake which happen to everyone, apologies and leave it as that. No harm no fowl.
Enjoy your next run and pass to word.

I've had my Cookoo watch for awhile now, and so far its become one of my favorite everyday watches. Not only because it looks good, and it wears so comfortably, but it connects to my phone and does really cool things like alert me when I have a new message or missed call, or if I've left my phone behind. This feature has been especially useful for me as I am constantly looking for my phone and worry that I've left it behind. Usually I find it in the deepest recesses of my bag, but its really great that I know its just within my reach because my watch doesn't go off. No more, "OMG, I've left my phone!" haha. And other things like alerts in my calendar can link to my watch too so I won't forget to text/call people. But my favorite feature has got to be the camera link. Get this: you can actually use the watch to control when your phone's camera goes off. This means you can take far photos without asking someone to do it. Just click on the button on your watch and your phone takes a picture! Pretty cool, right? Also, its water and shock proof, so you can wear it ANYWHERE without having to worry about it breaking or conking out. Like I said, its an awesome everyday watch!
You can order your own in www.pormada.com! These come in black, white, pink and blue.


Taking a stress management holiday can really help when you are feeling overloaded. Our busy lives, hectic jobs and juggling many different commitments can push us to the limit resulting in low energy levels, weight gain due to high cortisol levels and anxiety. To add to the cocktail of our "busyness" our mobile devices can lead to a lack of valuable down time that manifests into more stress. Consider a wellness holiday and learn how to manage your stress levels, restore balance in your nervous system and allow you to learn how to maintain the balance on an ongoing basis.

Hearts Everywhere Reaching Out for Children, Inc.
Georgia ranks sixth in the nation in reported pediatric and adolescent AIDS cases and has the fifth highest number of adult AIDS cases in the country (www.cdc.gov). Children and adolescents living with HIV/AIDS suffer from the many negative effects of the disease, including depression, low self-esteem, anger management issues, low academic performance, and mental illness. Furthermore, children infected with and affected by HIV/AIDS are often victims of discrimination, alienation, forced to cope with the end of life issues at an early age, and have to deal with the trauma of watching a loved one die.
Hearts Everywhere Reaching Out for Children, Inc. (H.E.R.O.) has been committed to improving the quality of life for these children through enriching programs, unforgettable experiences, and connections with the community for the past fifteen years. The organization was founded in 2003 by two University of Georgia graduates who had two separate, but similar experiences working alongside children infected with and affected by HIV/AIDS in Brazil and Africa. Both observed that although the children's basic needs (i.e. food, housing, and medical attention) were being addressed, no specific 'quality of life' (QOL) care services were being provided. After researching this phenomenon in Georgia, the founders discovered that none of the 500 HIV/AIDS service organizations in Georgia addressed the QOL needs of children. As a result, H.E.R.O. for Children was created. H.E.R.O. defines quality of life as the degree to which an individual enjoys physical, social, and emotional well-being and sees him/herself as being able to experience future success and fulfillment. Under this umbrella, the organization offers life skills development, emotional support, education forums and recreational activities which yield positive life outcome perceptions via a variety of experiences.
H.E.R.O. currently serves more than 350 kids through approximately 18,000 hours of quality of life care with more than 250 volunteers. The organization's unique mission includes an often overlooked population-children who are affected by HIV/AIDS. An affected child is someone who has an infected parent, sibling, residential relative or has lost a relative to HIV/AIDS-related complications. Approximately 33 % of HERO children are HIV positive and the other 67% are affected. Nearly 25% of HERO children have lost a parent to HIV/AIDS-related complications. H.E.R.O. serves a majority low-income population, and does not charge a fee to parents/guardians for any of its services or programs.
One of H.E.R.O.'s first objectives was to build a credible, experience and supportive Board. This was accomplished with the addition of the Head of Global Pediatric Aids for the CDC, a partner in a major accounting firm, a Human Resource Executive as well as a retired Chairman & CEO along with Vince Dooley (former UGA Athletic Director), Mark Richt (former UGA Head Football Coach) and Paul Hewitt (former GT Basketball Coach). Nearly all of these Board members are still actively involved and very supportive of H.E.R.O.'s mission. H.E.R.O. grew from a start-up in donated office space to an organization that raised over $1 million dollars in its fifth year. Part of those funds were developed through college philanthropy organizations at the University of Georgia (UGA HERO) and Georgia Tech (GT HERO), members of which spend their year raising funds to support HERO programs. In 2008, UGA HERO raised a record $363,000 for the organization with over 2,000 student philanthropists. UGA HERO and GT HERO also host annual recreational events which allow them to meet and interact with the children for whom they raise funds.
These programs have had significant impacts on the lives of our children, as evidenced by the following case stories:
DJ suffered from a severe speech impediment, which affected her academic performance and ability to develop good peer relationships. Almost three years after being matched with her Super HERO, LP, a speech therapist, this child's ability to communicate with others has improved significantly, and she has developed solid friendships with children her age.
JH, a child who often fought in school and was suspended on several occasions, uses the skills he learned in the Rising HERO program to manage his anger. He is now able to deal with potentially volatile situations more effectively, which has resulted in reduced instances of his acting out in school.
CJ's father died of AIDS-related complications. He was unable to attend his father's funeral due to family conflicts regarding his diagnosis. At Camp High Five, CJ was able to say "goodbye" to his father at the annual "HIV ceremony," during which participants are given the opportunity to recognize loved ones lost to the disease.
Several parents/caretakers have reported that the only Christmas gifts their children received in 2016 came from HERO, as they were unable to afford presents. They are extremely thankful for the Holiday of HEROs program.
HF lives in a single-parent home. Her mother has AIDS, is in poor health, and is often too weak to manage normal household responsibilities. As the eldest child, HF must often care for her mother and younger siblings, prepare meals for the family, and even tend to their finances. HF attended HERO for a Day in 2009 and was able to 'just be a kid' for one day.
Support from H.E.R.O.'s generous donors will assist the organization in creating more of these stories. Monies raised will allow H.E.R.O. to serve more children who are in need of such programs, as well as develop and implementation of new programs designed to meet their needs (i.e. health education and job readiness programs).
H.E.R.O. is an organization positioned to address the unique needs of children whose futures are affected by this life-altering pandemic. It is providing today's children the chance to blossom into responsible adults who, in turn, will become positive contributors of tomorrow- despite their HIV status.

911 tapes released from Rushing murders
January 30, 2014 at 12:12 AM CST - Updated July 9 at 8:25 PM
LAWTON, Okla._Last Monday morning, Thorsten called 911 and said someone had come into his family's home and shot his father and brother, Uwe and Stefan Rushing died at the scene.
Up until last weekend, police were searching for the killers, on Saturday they made several shocking arrests. They claim Thorsten and four of his friends were behind the murders and that Thorsten was the trigger man.
He was calm and collected, nothing like you'd expect from someone who witnessed the killing of his father and brother to sound, he didn't seem emotional or frantic and what stood out the most was how long it took him to tell the dispatcher his father and brother had been shot in the head.
"911 what's the address of the emergency?"
"Uh it's 1116 NW Columbia Ave."
It was the start of a six and a half minute phone call between Thorsten Rushing and a 911 dispatcher. Seconds into the phone call Thorsten starts describing to the dispatcher what happened.
"OK, we were all laying down in our living room and some dudes come in with boots, like booty things, on like nurses and doctors."
At this point it's still not clear what the emergency is, it's not until a minute into the phone call the dispatcher learns that two people have been shot, his father and brother. She only learns of their injuries after probing further.
"They fired at us."
"Ok, is anyone hit?"
"Yes my dad and brother are both bleeding, dead, like not moving."
"In the back of the head, they were shot in the back of the head, please hurry!"
"OK sir, you said in the back of the head. Who's shot in the back of the head?"
"Uhh there were two people both about 6 foot..."
"Who was shot in the back of the head you said?"
"My father."
"OK is he awake?"
"No, no he's not!"
"Is he breathing?"
"No he's not breathing."
"OK, who else is shot?"
"My little brother and he's choking right now, he's choking."
"He's struggling, he's really..."
"Is he still breathing?"
"Yes ma'am."
"OK, I'm going to need you to go open the door now ok."
"Open the door."
"He stopped breathing!"
That's when police arrived and Thorsten got off the phone with the dispatcher. Throughout the six minute call Thorsten tells the dispatch to hurry just once a minute and 15 seconds in and repeatedly tries to describe the intruders as the dispatcher continues to ask him the conditions of his father and brother.
Two Altus Firefighters say the change is already positively impacting the department.
Members of a Duncan youth group are recovering after they believe they got carbon monoxide poisoning driving home from a mission trip.

Studying Medicine in Italy
Choosing a Public Medical School in Italy
Why Study Medicine in Italy?
In most countries medical school is the most difficult degree to secure a place in. You need to have the top high school grades, sometimes require a previous university degree (and top grades there), have to do an intense admission test, perform well on various interviews, along with other hurdles. In Italy the process is made simple. You need no prior background, just 12 years of high school and a passing grade on the IMAT. It's that simple.
Do Italian Medical Schools Provide Quality Education?
Yes! You will be given 6 years of quality education in a modern European university, qualifying you for a world-renowned medical degree. Italy boasts some of the worlds oldest universities, some almost 800 years old! Overall, the average Italian public medical school is comparable to a typical European medical school, with some cultural differences to be expected here and there.
How Much Does it Cost to Study Medicine at a Public Medical School in Italy?
One of the most attractive things about these universities is the cost. While pricing is not fixed and depends on a few factors (the most relevant being your family income), you can expect to pay no more than 4000 euros per year. However, that is the extreme case, the vast majority of students pay just a few hundred euro per year in tuition fees, with some paying nothing at all! Even if you have rich parents, there are often other ways to get fee reductions, which we will explain in more detail.
Furthermore, Italy is very generous with scholarships. If your family income is low enough you can receive up to 7000 euros per year as a lump sum, as well as reduced fee canteen meals at the university. Everyone is entitled to these payments provided their family income (or in some cases personal income) is low enough. There are also other scholarships based on things like academic merit. Yup you heard that right, in Italy you can pretty much get PAID to study medicine.
Do I Need to Know Italian?
Nope. You do not need to know Italian to enrol into medical school, the course is entirely run in English. However, you will be expected to learn Italian throughout your university years so you can communicate with patients and hospital staff, this will be important for your clinical experience.
It is also HIGHLY recommended you try your best to learn Italian, since it will make your life in Italy much easier.
How Do I Get In?
You need to pass the IMAT. While that may not sound like much, there are generally over 10,000 test takers per year, and under 1000 places in medical school. So you will need to study hard to beat the competition. Luckily we have provided you with the most comprehensive IMAT preparation course on the market. We believe this opportunity should be available to everyone, so we have priced the course far below our competitors. If you are serious about becoming a future medical student, then we have you covered!

I cannot more highly recommend IMAT Buddy to anyone studying for IMAT - it is invaluable. I used this course to study for IMAT and scored 57.9. It has everything I needed to prepare, being especially helpful with IMAT's General Knowledge and Logical Reasoning sections. I've spent hundreds of pounds on other study courses which had out of date content, poor interfaces, and an overall negative experience. Don't make the mistake I've made wasting so much money on other courses, IMAT Buddy has everything you need. Thank you so much to the staff behind it!

Fantastic course! The science section predicted many of the types of questions that showed up in the exam, thanks to IMAT Buddy I scored in the top of the non-EU for my university of choice. Cannot recommend the course enough!

The course is very well organized and systemic. Thanks to IMAT Buddy I was able to find all the needed study material explained in an easy coherent way. I recommend it to anyone trying to sit for the IMAT test.

I've been trying to get into med school for two years now and I've been through A LOT of different books and websites designed to help the test takers but I have never come across anything remotely similar to IMAT Buddy! I've been using it for quite some time now and I really enjoy the way everything is so perfectly arranged in it. The videos are super useful, there are plenty of test simulators AND you can monitor your own progress as you go on. I've never been more motivated and confident about IMAT. So of you wanna get into med school, make sure not to miss it, or do, cause you know, less competition for me 😁
Germany | 2022
ImatBuddy is probably one of the best course available out there. The course is well organized with the most important topics and it provides a lot of tips and tricks of what is really necessary to study for the IMAT. My personal experience is that through ImatBuddy I was able to raise my points in a short period of time. Especially the scientific section has very well made explanatory videos and for the first section there is also a lot of material with how to prepare best and efficiently.
