The Department of Medicine provides high quality research, teaching and patient care. It is one of the largest Departments in the School of Clinical Medicine and is comprised of 12 divisions, each involved in research related to human disease and aligned to a clinical specialty within the NHS. It houses 26 Professors and over 450 research staff, of which 140+ Postgraduate students are a mix of both clinical and non-clinical scientists.
The Department currently holds research grants totalling in excess of £145m with an annual turnover of over £25m. This represents a large and active research programme. As the Department operates out of several sites around the Cambridge Biomedical Campus and is involved in a number of capital projects it is expanding in size and scope.
Our research
The Department has a major focus on interaction with industry, reinforced by the longstanding presence of the GSK Cambridge Clinical Unit on the Biomedical Campus, and more recently, by the arrival of the Global Research and Corporate Headquarters of AstraZeneca.
The research facilities of the Department of Medicine will be revolutionised in mid to late 2018 by the opening of the Cambridge Institute for Therapeutic Immunology and Infectious Disease (CITIID). This new Institute will unite expert groups in infectious disease and immunity including the microbiome, autoimmune disease, cellular immunology, and inflammatory disease. There will be associated strengths in genomics and genetics. Dedicated groups will focus on computational biology, in collaboration with the MRC Biostatistics Unit, The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and the European Bioinformatics Institute.
The research environment in Cambridge is also greatly strengthened by support from the NIHR Biomedical Research Centre, and of particular relevance is the NIHR BRC Human Immunophenotyping Hub, which will expand over the next five years. This will house investigators focussed on studies of infectious and immune-mediated disease and will be the site for a large part of the NIHR Cambridge BRC Cell Phenotyping Hub.
Most members of the Department of Medicine are involved in clinical teaching. The Department organises the weekly Staff Round, which is the main forum for academic medicine on the campus. The Department is also involved in the supervision of over 120 graduate students, and members may also contribute to undergraduate teaching in the School of Biological Sciences.
Members of all divisions of the Department of Medicine are actively involved in providing patient care in the NHS. This is critical not only for service provision but ensures that the Department's research and teaching is constantly refocused upon the needs of patients.

Snails don't move very fast - after all, they have only one foot. And when they do take off, they leave a slimy trail behind them ... a glistening, mucus-y thread that leads over rocks and pine needles. Give your snail a head start - it'll take them a minute to move 12 inches - and then check out their trails. Do they travel in a straight line? Or do they wander, meandering back and forth?
You can make a snail hide-out by turning a clay flowerpot on its side and placing it in a shady, damp area. If you want to find out whether an individual snail returns "home" every day, or whether it follows the same path day after say, mark the snail shells with colored marker or a dot of paint.

Harvey Weinstein is worried the sexual harassment allegations against him may escalate to criminal charges, so he's now being advised by some of the best criminal defense attorneys in town.
Criminal defense powerhouses Blair Berk and David Chesnoff are now on Weinstein's legal team, and are working with the producer to make sure he's legally in the clear after an article in the New Yorker alleged three women were sexually assaulted by him.
Berk has represented A-listers like, Mel Gibson, Johnny Depp, Britney Spears, Kiefer Sutherland, and Lindsay Lohan. Chesnoff's clients have included Vince Neil, Bruno Mars, Paris Hilton, Leonardo DiCaprio, and the family of Michael Jackson.
Two of the women have claimed forced oral copulation, which Weinstein's team believe to be sexual misconduct and carries a statute of limitations of two years. In those cases, the statute has already ran its course.
The third woman, according to the article, is accusing Weinstein of rape, to which there is no statute of limitations on.
The woman accusing him of rape is not identified in the article, but Weinstein is worried if she comes forward the allegations could become a criminal issue for him, hence the need for the high-powered criminal defense team.
Sources close to the legal team tell us they have also contacted Weinstein's former company, Miramax, to gather information about previous allegations against him and have determined none of them reach the level of criminality.

There are schools from one side of the country to the next, all of which are dedicated to helping students better their level of education. According to a recent research study by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, however, at least one out of four middle school students noted that they have experienced some type of physical or verbal sexual harassment at their school. This often occurs in the hallway or the classroom.
The research study surveyed approximately 1,400 students spanning four middle schools. The end result was alarming: 27 percent of female students said they had been a victim of physical or verbal sexual harassment, with male students not far behind at 25 percent.
Nearly 22 percent of students said that they were a victim of unwanted physical touching, with verbal sexual commentary also a big problem with 18.9 percent of students a victim.
The head investigator of the study added that, "Hallways made sense. Even the gym made sense. The classroom was very surprising to our team."
Although this study only included 1,400 students, it shows that sexual harassment in schools remains a major problem, both among female and male students.
When a student is sexually harassed at school, regardless of the other party, they do not always realize they have rights. This is particularly true among younger students, such as those in middle school.
Administrations across the country are aware of this growing problem, but this doesn't mean they are aware of everything that goes on in their school. If a student is sexually harassed, he or she should report the problem. In some cases, this even leads to a lawsuit filed by the victim.

Mom's second day of quilting
First I need to give a little warning to my friend, Nancy, she might break out into hives when she sees the fabric in this first quilt.
Do you remember we the Kyle's Marketplace fabrics first came out? We all bought some. We all used some of it and then got kind of tired of it. I cut mine into a kit for a veteran's quilt. Nancy volunteered to piece it and still hasn't gotten over it. Mom decided it was time to get rid of hers and this is the first quilt she made with it.
That's bold! I love the border and I think this is destined to be a picnic quilt and it's perfect for that. She quilted this one in just a few hours and loaded up the next one.
This was her next quilt. Mom started this when we went to Lancaster in 2014. Her piecing on this is perfect. I hope she keeps this one for herself.
On this one I taught her to do leaves with her loops. The only way to learn to quilt is to load a quilt and go. Start at one edge and by the time you get to the other edge you will be better. Her start is on the left and her finish is on the right. She doesn't believe me but she did get a lot better by the time she got to the other end. In the turquoise border she did her first ever ruler work and quilted a piano key border!She's rockin' it. #4 is on the machine now.

Anthony Bourdain's Final 'Parts Unknown' Episodes, Classic 'Magnum' Repeats, '9-1-1' Heats Up
A critical checklist of notable weekend TV:
Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown (Sunday, 9/8c, CNN): It's almost unbearably poignant to watch this otherwise ebullient visit to Kenya, the last episode of the Emmy-winning series to feature Anthony Bourdain's narration. This is one of several episodes that were in the process of being completed when the chef-author-raconteur took his own life in June. (Four more location-based episodes will air, along with specials that go behind the scenes with Bourdain and his crew and explore his legacy.) Along for the deep dive into Kenyan culture and society is fellow CNN host W. Kamau Bell (United Shades of America), making his first enthusiastic trip to the continent.
5 Memorable and Hilarious Anthony Bourdain TV Moments (VIDEO)
Magnum, P.I. (Sunday, 7 pm/6c, COZI TV): No, not the CBS remake. That's Monday's news. In advance of the new version of the 1980s classic, the digital nostalgia channel replays five of the more memorable episodes from the Tom Selleck era in a mini-marathon, with guest stars including Murder, She Wrote legend Angela Lansburg, Frank Sinatra in one of his last TV appearances, and Sharon Stone in the two-part "Echoes of the Mind," which kicked off the fifth season back in 1984.

9-1-1 (Sunday, 8/7c, Fox; time approximate after football): Global warming alert! The second season of Ryan Murphy's high-octane first-responders series opens on a scorcher of a day, with over-the-top crises keeping the crew busy. In personnel news, Jennifer Love Hewett joins the cast as Buck's (Oliver Stark) sister, Maddie, effectively filling the void left by Connie Britton. Also new: Ryan Guzman as hottie firefighter Eddie Diaz, who'll rival Buck in the beefcake department, just as the selection process for a fireman calendar begins. A second episode airs Monday in its regular time period, ramping up the stakes with an earthquake.

February 18th 2018
The only reason I'm writing this today is because of something that happened 40 years ago—a race that took place on the Island of Oahu in Hawaii.
The race I am speaking of involved three normal sports that most of us did as kids: swimming, riding our bikes, and running. But the distances of this first-time event were so gigantic that pretty much everyone thought it was impossible: A 2.4-mile ocean swim, a 112-mile bike ride around the Island, and a 26.2-mile marathon strung together into one continuous demanding challenge. Fifteen brave athletes raced that day in an attempt to simply cross the finish line, and in doing so, changed the face of endurance sports forever.
On February 18, 1978 the IRONMAN was born.
There was no midnight cutoff. You could take as long as you needed to finish. There was no qualifying to gain entry—15 was not exactly a bloated number of competitors. There was nothing aero or sleek. No one wore anything that shouted "I am a triathlete." It was more like a band of misfits heading out to have a good time, if that is possible covering 140.6 miles under your own power in one day.
In the end, 12 finished. Gordon Haller was crowned the first ever IRONMAN champ. His time? 11:46:40. Still pretty impressive even by modern standards. It was extraordinary, considering there were no coaches and no reservoir of knowledge to tap into to help him get ready. In ninth was John Collins, who, along with his wife Judy, dreamed up this crazy contest in the first place. His finishing time was 17:00:38. Yes, if there had been the midnight cutoff, John would have needed to squeeze another 38 seconds out of his race to be considered an official IRONMAN finisher.
Like a seed that had just sprouted, the IRONMAN slowly took root and grew over the next few years. In 1979, Lyn Lemaire became the first women to complete the race. She was the only female competitor that year and ended up finishing fifth overall in a field the same size as the previous (first) year.
Just after that race, Collins was pondering turning the event into a relay instead of an individual event. But as IRONMAN's fortune would have it, Sports Illustrated writer Barry McDermott had come to Oahu to cover a golf tournament. He happened to see the IRONMAN taking place, and was so drawn by what he witnessed that he wrote a ten-page account for the magazine. The calls came rolling in to Collins, who quickly discovered that he didn't need to make it into a relay to get traction.
The story is well accounted for from there. Tom Warren won for the men in 1979 and was interviewed by Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show. In 1982, ABC's Wide World of Sports captured one of the most dramatic finish line crawls of all time and suddenly the infant sport of triathlon was thrust onto the world's endurance sports radar.
But what supercharged its momentum through the 1980s was IRONMAN's extraordinary ability to highlight the human spirit. It never looked easy. It always had a quality of complete uncertainty. Every athlete racing came with the same question: "Can I finish it? Will I be one of those blessed people to cross the IRONMAN finish line before the stroke of midnight?"
Uncertainty is the hallmark of amazing. It's the spark that ignites commitment. It unlocks the door to a person's real potential. It helps them get ready to embrace and endure extreme challenge. When roped in and overcome, uncertainty always makes a great story.
The race became a dream for thousands around the globe. It was a chance to personally fly to the moon and touch the stars. Competing at the IRONMAN in Hawaii had became an iconic sporting landmark where mere mortals could test themselves at what seemed like mythical proportions. It was where the ordinary were transformed into the extraordinary. And the uncertainty of what it would take guaranteed the race would unfold with raw human spirit and deep inspiration.
Fueling my first six IRONMAN World Championships in Hawaii was the same magic we all saw in the race. I floated in Kailua Bay on race morning like everyone else, waiting for the starting cannon completely enveloped in uncertainty. None of us knew if we had what it took to finish. But I knew that if I could, something inside me would be changed forever.
Yes, I was also hunting another goal. I wanted to be the very first across that amazing finish line. But that wasn't the spark that put each of those first six races in the rarified air of human experience. You see, at the time, doing THE IRONMAN in Hawaii had not been normalized. It was still like going into an outer space of endurance athletics; it was our chance to experience sport from a life-altering perspective.
Today, IRONMAN is a little more normal. Most people know someone who has completed one. Think of it as if you were walking along the beach and kicked something with your toe only to look down and see a huge diamond laying in the sand. You would be amazed. You would go home and tell all your friends. But if you found a diamond every time you walked on that same beach it would eventually lose some of its luster.
I'm certainly not saying that IRONMAN is any different today than it was in the past. But you may have to look past the vast community of people who have finished the distance to see that even so, the accomplishment is still—no matter how you frame it—completely amazing. It's still uncertain. It's still unpredictable. You will be demanded to go beyond your fears and open the door to your fullest capabilities. Chasing your dream and finishing an IRONMAN is just as priceless and precious today as it was 40 years ago.
Mark Allen is a six-time IRONMAN world champion and an IRONMAN U Master Coach. He was inducted into the IRONMAN Hall of Fame in 1997. Visit his blog at Markallencoaching.com.

Start the countdown. Coco's first show on cable is TBA no more.
Funny man Conan O'Brien will be back on the air beginning Monday, Nov. 8, he announced today at a TBS event at the Hammerstein Theatre in New York City. O'Brien, who took over The Tonight Show after Jay Leno's initial retirement (and then return to NBC), publicly battled the network after execs asked him to relinquish his time slot back to Leno. After a multi-million dollar settlement, Conan left NBC and The Tonight Show, and was unable to even appear on television, let alone host a show, for a number of months due to a signed agreement with the network.
"The plot to 'Lost' is more plausible than my last year at NBC," he told audience members at the Hammerstein, according to MTV.
He has since taken his show – literally – on the road, headlining a nation-wide tour of jokes, songs and self-deprecating wise cracks – and he didn't stop there. Last month, he made headlines again when he announced that he signed with cable channel TBS for a late night talk show that will air weekdays at 11 p.m., just before George Lopez's Lopez Tonight.
"I really believe in cable television," he said. "I do not want to live in a country with less than five ESPN networks."
And judging by recent Conanpolooza, viewers don't want to live in a world without Conan. 173 days to go.

Group: Ban hitting in high school football offseason
- According to the Sports Legacy Institute%2C 29 states allow full contact practice in spring or summer
- The group also wants to limit full-contact practice in season to one per week or fewer
- The group is encouraging coaches to make changes even if their state association does not
NEW ORLEANS – To reduce concussions and their long-term effects, a Boston-based group wants state high school associations across the USA to eliminate full-contact during offseason football practices.
"You can learn how to play football without brain trauma," said Chris Nowinski, co-founder of the Sports Legacy Institute, a non-profit that promotes concussion awareness and prevention.
During a news conference Friday at Super Bowl XLVII, Nowinski said 29 state high school associations, including Florida and Texas, now allow full-contact football practice in the spring or summer, apart from drills during the preseason and in season.
"That's stands in stark contrast to what we understand about the developing brain being more vulnerable than the adult brain," said Nowinski. "And in a world where the NFL players are better protected than the teenagers, we have a problem and we should correct it.''
The NFL does not permit full contact in the offseason. Under the collective bargaining agreement, it also allows only 14 full-contact practices during the regular season. The Sports Legacy Institute also wants full-contact practices in high schools limited to one or fewer per week during the season.
"The only reason this isn't in place in high school is because high school athletes don't have an opportunity to negotiate. They don't have anyone in their corner with any power,'' said Tennessee Titans quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, who participated in the news conference.
Hasselbeck said of the NFL limits on full contact: "It forces the coaches to help guys work on their technique, which makes the game better anyway. So this is an opportunity to make the game better, be smarter and obviously take care of the kids."
Kyle Turley, who played offensive tackle in the NFL from 1998 to 2007, also advocated for the ban on full contact in the offseason for high school players.
Turley wore dark glasses at the press conference, saying he said he is sensitive to light because of vertigo that developed during his playing days. Vertigo also can result in nausea and dizziness.
"I have these glasses on, one of the repercussions of my many episodes of dealing with vertigo that seemed to increase throughout my career," said Turley, who said the condition is now under control with the help of medication.
While playing for the New Orleans Saints in the 2001 season, Turley was involved in a game incident in which he tossed the helmet of one of the New York Jets across the field.
"Many people know me as the helmet throwing guy. But the scariest part of that is away from the game those football, those helmets turned into chairs and they turned into plates and they turned into spouse's crying and children crying,'' said Turley.
He said he was diagnosed with two concussions during his career. He said he has battled depression, anxiety and mood swings.
"I know personally -- knowing what a concussion is -- that I suffered multiple concussions throughout my career. … The severity of them is to be debated, but the effects of them all piling up have resulted in what I have to deal with today," he said.
He said stopping full contact by high school players in the offseason would be a step in the right direction.
"We want it to be fixed … We demand that it be fixed," said Turley.
Nowinski acknowledged the change in the high school rules won't happen overnight.
"We know that will take a long time to do," said Nowinski.
"There is a lot of bureaucracy at those levels. It's voted on by the membership. So we are encouraging coaches to stop hitting in spring and summer. And we are encouraging parents to not enroll their children in those sorts of programs. "

Hi Stephen,
I'm a recent college graduate and have been working on a collaborative microblogging website with some friends. We have a vision to simplify the tools teachers and students use to communicate and collaborate. We want to make it easy for the teachers to engage students in class discussions and also make it easy for students to contact the teacher and other classmates if they have any questions while working on assignments and projects. We also want to facilitate team work for groups of students working together on blogging projects, pen-pal projects and other research projects.
Can we connect here on Classroom 2.0 or on Twitter?
Hi Stephen,
I'm curious what kind of consulting do you do?

Gus on the Go a Language Learning Adventure Review & Giveaway
This App is brilliant! There are no other explanations! Gus on the Go is without a doubt the best learning app I have come across. Go get it now, I love it! I bought it on a recommendation from a friend and I am so happy that I did!
This is the first App that I have reviewed, not because I haven't found fun apps, but because I had not yet found one that, that in my opinion, had learning the learning outcomes that I want to see. Gus on the Go changed that for me. The learning outcomes are clear and strong, and the entertainment level knocks it out of the park and keeps kids coming back.
Gus on the Go has 26 languages and the kids learn 89 words in each one version. I kid you not, my daughter (7 years) blew through this thing in a few sittings. Not because it was too easy, but because it was so much fun! (What's more, I didn't mind!)
The balance between learning, practice and fun is exactly right with this app. Each section introduces you to new words with cartoon graphics. In order to go onto the next level, you have to earn trophy's by playing fun mini games. The games are activities like recognizing a word in French (I bought the French one) then popping the corresponding balloons with the correct animal in them, or participating in a horse race by knowing the correct vocabulary words.
The graphics are colorful, clean, and engaging and the games are simply fun, so fun that my daughter didn't want to put it down. Heck, I wanted to play it too! I was surprised at how quickly she learned the vocabulary words and she is actually retaining them.
The only problem with it is that we want more! More levels, vocabulary and sentence structures please! I sent an email over to the nice folks at Gus on the Go and told them how much I love their app, but could they please hurry up with some more levels? The lovely Alice wrote back explaining that the Gus on the Go Team is actually only 2 people (yes, the two of them created this amazing learning tool). She and her counterpart Yono are working hard on the sequel that will teach short sentences using stories. With any luck it will be available early this summer. All I can say is that my family can't wait!
It gets even better! Alice is giving us 5 iOS promo codes to give away to randomly chosen winners!
The Giveaway will run 2/19/15 – 3/5/15.

Gus on the Go is available on Itunes and Android Play Store.

It was a dark day for the gaming industry two days ago, as THQ's ailing financial status resulted in a auction of its assets. Most of its games and production studios were auctioned off, with bidders such as Sega, Ubisoft and Crytek getting pretty good deals for titles and IPs such as "Company of Heroes" and "Homefront". However, the clear beneficiary in the sale of THQ's assets appear to be little-known Koch Media, who successfully won bids for the popular "Saints Row" and "Metro" series.
The company, founded back in 1989, initially filed for bankruptcy in late December 2012, after a series of disappointing big-budget games. Some of THQ's more popular games include the "Saints Row" and "Company of Heroes" franchise, as well as "Darksiders", "Homefront" and "Metro 2033", which also has a sequel in the works, to be called "Metro: Last Light". Its popular "Humble Bundle" pack – where popular THQ titles were sold a steep discounts, with the proceeds going to charity – also gained quite a following.
In the aftermath of the auction, THQ's CEO Brian Farrell and President Jason Rubin sent an email to all of its employees informing them of the results of the auction, and thanked them for their "imaginative, creative, artistic and highly valued" work. Yesterday, the company held its last meeting.

Today I am visiting the small town where I grew up: Windham NY. I have to write this post on my BlackBerry. If it looks odd, that's why. In Windham, they've heard good things about the Internet, but there's still a wait-and-see attitude.
I haven't been back to Windham since I left 28 years ago. A big reason for leaving was the weather. So I carefully selected a calendar date with the lowest chance of death-by-snow. Furthermore, I checked the forecast before getting on the plane. There was only a ten percent chance of rain all week. So I left my umbrella home.
It's amazing how stupid you can get in 28 years.
As we dragged our luggage from Albany airport, lightning started a shock and awe campaign apparently aimed at toppling the Scott and Shelly regime. We tucked and rolled and made it to the rental car area just as the sky opened and the death-rain began. Before long, the rain turned to dime-sized hail and destroyed crops, stunned small animals, and made children cry.
"This is what 'ten percent chance of rain' means in Windham," I explained to my wife. You don't want to be here on a bad weather day.
Luckily, traffic was not an issue, since most of the time we were the only car on the road. If your car goes off the road in Windham, your best bet is reincarnation.
I tried to give my wife the audio tour of my hometown as we drove through, but I quickly realized all of my landmark references were based on memories of who allegedly got fingered where. That gets old faster than you'd think.
I kid, but Windham is actually a shockingly beautiful town and the people are nice. This is where I learned the art of humorous exaggeration. Exaggeration sounds funnier than "It rained." And they do have high speed Internet in Windham, except where I am right now.
The part about the dime-sized hail was true, but I am assured there is only a ten percent chance it will happen again today.

Chemistry has been fascinating to me since I was in high school. In the laws and theories, I see a pattern; a pattern that tells me that God is faithful.
Professional Interests
I have always loved the basics of chemistry. In analytical chemistry those basics are explored in a depth that reveals their true values. When we truly understand the way the chemistry world works, we better understand the way the world around us works because all around us is chemistry. In addition the precision exemplified in the analytical lab is always the goal of my perfectionistic character.
I am working to extend the reach of the chemistry department into the surrounding community, in particular helping parents involved in home schooling. I teach a lab on campus for home school students. I was home schooled, and I know how frustrating it can be to try to learn something without someone to explain it and without being about to "see" it.
Students discover their passions early in life, and young students are passionate. I love the "aha!" moment when someone suddenly understands a new concept. The lab experience is also instrumental in helping students realize an interest in the sciences. I fondly remember, in my high school days, receiving a buret in the mail; I have loved titrations, integral to analytical work, ever since!
I take my role as science safety officer very seriously. I work to keep up with current regulations and procedures, and to ensure the safety of all who pass through our building.
Personal Interests
I am innately maternal. Several of my students, as well as my own two daughters, call me "mom". It is one of my greatest joys (and highest honors) to be known not for my own accomplishments, but by the accomplishments of my "children". Being a mom is more than a role; it is where I genuinely have the opportunity to express God's love to those around me.

Asian Longhorned Beetle
Spreading the Word
Unlike other more inconspicuous exotic pests, the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) is well suited as a target for involving the public in its detection. It is a large beetle with distinctive markings that leaves characteristic signs, which people can readily see and identify. Most of the initial ALB infestations have been found by the public, not pest specialists. ALB infestations are commonly widely dispersed within a general region due to accidental movement of infested wood. It is impossible for official inspectors to check every tree. For this reason, enlisting assistance from the public in the search of this beetle is essential to increase the likelihood of detecting infestations early.
ALB awareness programs aimed at alerting the public to this serious pest have been initiated in several states. Many innovative educational materials have been developed to spread the word about ALB. We started an awareness program in 1996. Every third tree in Vermont in a maple, one of the favorite hosts of ALB. ALB could be devastating to this state, both economically and environmentally. Therefore, from the start of our public awareness activities, Vermonters have been eager to help. Several of our ideas have proved very successful and will be described briefly below.

Beauty brand comes up with a new name for our 'sensitive' area
There's nothing wrong with the word vagina.
To be honest around here, not only do we encourage the use of vagina, we talk about them an awful lot.
Let's say it one more time loud and proud... VAGINA. Well it turns out not everyone is as comfortable as we are with saying the word.
Ladies and ladies prepare to welcome in the new age of the 'V-zone'.
Freda Health, which specialises in organic tampons today tweeted a photo of a product that has named the female reproductive organs the 'V-zone', and people are a bit confused,
As if #periods didn't have enough shame and taboo surrounding it, we now have a V-Zone!! Like why? Do men have P-Zones? Come on @Bodyform!! pic.twitter.com/32Bf1hd0kG

Okay... let's not get ahead of ourselves, we have to remember these are two competing brands, we just can't imagine men calling their areas the 'P Zone'.
You can call it whatever makes you comfortable, and if you're stuck for words, we actually have a HUGE list of words for vaginas that we've compiled... because that's just the way our brain works.
You're welcome.

Julia Please
I told her that I loved her
to fill the gaps between us.
But the gaps were too big
and my words were too small.
So with nothing more to cling to
she held herself and shivered,
then with neither word not gesture
she turned and walked away.
17 December 1987
Between leaving school in 1975 and 1999 I wrote only two short stories. Lots of poems—I was a poet after all—but prose didn't have much of a pull on me. I don't have exact dates for the stories but they were both written in the late seventies. The first was a most odd one—a priest has a conversation with a terrorist who, if I remember correctly, had planted a bomb in his church—the second, after much revision, became 'Waiting' in which an unfaithful husband comes home to find his wife has discovered the scarf he'd bought for his lover. In the story the following line appears:
Able to stand it no longer he spoke first, small words that couldn't possibly bridge the gap between them.
The poem is a reduction of the short story, a distillation. I'm not sure it works but it was an interesting thing to attempt. I have no idea why I chose the name Julia by the way. I've never known a Julia—a couple of Julies—but something clearly appealed at the time.

If anyone can provide insight to my question I would greatly appreciate it! Here is a bit of background: I have a BA in Art/Design and Business Management and an AAS in Engineering, Drafting and Design (CAD Drafting, Product Design, Etc.).
I would like to be an Industrial Designer. I have all the skills needed for most of the ID jobs I look at. I'm just wondering if I'm going to be completely written off if I don't have a degree in ID or product design. I might need to brush up a bit on my sketching skills, but I do have a lot of experience in CAD software (Solidworks, CREO, Inventor), product design, designing for manufacturing. and mechanical design. I also have taken classes in machining, tool design, casting, 3D sculpture, Design Theory, Color Theory, hand drafting, and art history (to name a few). I know I don't have the technical degree but I do have all the skills. I'm a very creative person and I have a talent for problem solving, and I'm great at coming up with new ideas.
With that, I currently work as a Design Engineer and find myself feeling unfulfilled. I know I'm capable of doing more and I would love nothing more than to find a job that utilizes my talents and creative abilities. I'm truly a versatile person and can relate to many different types of people based off of my experience in different fields. I also can think both highly creatively and analytically because of the different types of education I have. I believe that is very useful in the workforce.
I'm currently working on a portfolio that showcases all of my product design work I have done, and I'm working on getting better at sketching. Also, going back to school is out of the question for now. I have already been in college for 7 years and can't add anymore student loans at the time.
If anyone has any advice as to how I can combine, my skills, talents and education together to get an ID job I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks so much!

good morning ms b
by the time you wake up this morning
i will have voted
your gma and i go early to the polls to vote
we dont usually early vote unless we are out of town
we like the ambiance of election day
seeing all the campaign signs
listening to all the folks the right distance from the
poll entrance
sometimes shouting at each other
we even enjoy the lines
now here in the country the lines are not usually too long
we vote in an old community center
actually its an old high school gym
from a now closed high school
a real old gym by the way
it just makes the ambiance even better
now ms b
i have voted in every election for president since i could vote
its my right my duty to do it
if i dont vote
then i dont have any right to complain about things
ive even wrote in my vote before
even voted third party once or twice
so when folks start talking about politics
in that whiny complaining voice
i say
did you vote
if they say no
i raise my hand towards them
and say
just talk to the hand
now ms b
this election is a crazy one this year
its a very very important one
this one will determine a lot of things that are important
for you
the next president will probably nominate 1 maybe 2
supreme court justices
some of those on there now
look a little shaky when they walk
this will determine which way the court will lean for the next
several years
probably into your early adult life
so who folks vote for president will determine a lot
just based on the supreme court nominations
now there are a lot of other things are at stake
if we can just get the candidates to discuss them
intelligently and civil like
this ms b
is an awful primary season
its scary nauseating even
to think that some of the things that these candidates are talking about
like you know
the real politicians of washington
based on the real housewives shows
ms b
i hope when you grow up
that this world got left better for you
i am worried though
watching all this trash this political season
that it will not be
so this morning
when your gma and i go to the polls
as we pull the leaver
we will look at each other
what is best for ms b
thats how we plan to vote
so ms b
i hope you carry on this tradition in 17 years
everyone go vote when its your time
its your right
its your duty
dont do it
you give up your right to complain about things
if we dont all vote
we all lose in the end

(visited by Gordon Spence)
26-Feb-2002 -- Having driven around 230 miles so far today, I decided to make the day out worthwhile and carry on to 55N 4W, besides it meant I could go "home" to Scotland (Pic 3). As many of you doubtless know, right at the border lies Gretna Green. Here you can see the first and the last house in Scotland (Pic 4), which for over one hundred and seventy years has been the destination of young lovers (Pic 5).
Taking the next left major exit onto the A75 and off West we go, I did in fact go past this point before - on Jan 12th when I did a first-time visit to 55N 5W - if I had known how close it was to the main road I would have stopped off then...the mapquest map is reasonably accurate, what it doesn't show is the fantastic scenery.
I had printed off the report of the previous visit and taken it with me. I called at the land-owners house and at first he didn't remember the previous visitors. When I explained about the project again he remembered quite clearly and was very pleased that I had brought him the report as he had lost the web address!
Wandering off into the field, I found the spot (Pic 2) about 70m from where I had parked the car. A bit too easy really compared to some others, almost like a disappointment if you know what I mean. Looking North from the cp (Pic 1) you can see the lovely house, the panorama shot from the cp E through W (Pic 6) shows the superb views that it enjoys.
Making my way back to the main road, I noticed that what was normally just a trickle had swollen considerably and flooded the opposite field (Pic 7). I stopped for one more shot, looking directly at the cp (Pic 8). Off now to 55N 2W.

New program provides counsel for the dying
Joan Marra had a good death.
After a four-year reprieve, the 84-year-old's melanoma had returned by the time she arrived at MetroWest Medical Center in pain this past March. A CT scan revealed the cancer had spread much farther than suspected. She had already foregone intravenous chemotherapy and most other speculative treatment, but decisions remained - decisions her family had never before faced.
Daughter Tricia Hartigan, a nurse, and her husband, Jim, a chiropractor, would later describe some second-guessing. But the hospital sent a special team to help allay the Framingham couple's worries about Marra's lack of appetite. They provided emotional support.
And they struck the fine balance with pain management - enough narcotics to keep Marra comfortable, but not so much she couldn't say her goodbyes.
After nearly two weeks in the hospital, the great-grandmother died peacefully, with family present.
"She had said, 'I don't want all this crazy treatment,"' Tricia Hartigan said. "She was more into quality of life."
Twenty years ago - maybe even 10 - the circumstances might have been different, the Hartigans said, with doctors trained to forge ahead with attempted cures, treatment focused solely on the physical, and patients and families not always comfortable speaking up.
A recent specialty called palliative care is now helping change that, however, both for sick patients close to death and those with more time.
The special palliative team that helped Marra and her family at MetroWest Medical first came together in February, part of a new program. Newton-Wellesley Hospital introduced a similar initiative last year, and Milford Regional Medical Center is developing one.
While Marlborough Hospital does not yet have plans to follow suit, a spokeswoman said staff incorporate similar components in their daily care.
"It's definitely a rapidly growing field," said Dr. Julia Ragland, Newton-Wellesley's palliative care director. "The need is definitely there in hospital settings."
Palliative care consultations themselves aren't typically reimbursed, and many hospitals face tight finances.
MetroWest Medical, however, believes it could save $7 million this year if it meets its 147-consultation projection - savings from reducing readmissions and not needing to spend set Medicare payments on expensive medications and tests patients might have received in the past but don't actually want.
"I don't sell anything," Director John Edson said, with his program focused on providing options and ensuring wishes are voiced, not denying care. "What we try to do is to give back as much control to that patient as we can."
While related, palliative care is not hospice: Patients don't need a diagnosis that they have less than six months to live. They also don't need to give up treatment - an early fear of both patients and doctors. In fact, some use such programs for years and years.
Instead, patients qualify with chronic illnesses that are at least likely to shorten their lives, diseases such as congestive heart failure or cancer.
Programs attempt to increase their comfort, treating symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea and depression. And they address both physical and emotional pain, using diverse teams like MetroWest Medical's: two social workers, a nurse and a chaplain.
Such care previously existed in ad-hoc, piecemeal fashion but is now more organized. Consultation requests can come from patients, families or staff. When appropriate, nurses trained in pain management administer drugs that doctors might have shied away from for fear of fostering addiction.
The social workers' counseling, meanwhile, also includes loved ones. And the team, as a whole, has the time that regular staff would normally lack - enabling difficult conversations their colleagues might not feel comfortable with and thorough explanations of disease progression.
"No two are the same because no two families are the same," Edson said of consultations.
While not all consultations involve end-of-life cases, one of the biggest shifts has occurred there. Take the patient with dementia brought in earlier this year from a nursing home. She died with dignity intact, without pain and in as much of a home-like setting as possible - a "good death," Edson said.
"(She) went peacefully without all the bells and whistles," he said. "That's a change in philosophy, but that was where we'd done all we could and we couldn't do anything more."
Since most doctors and nurses aren't taught what actually occurs in death and are unprepared to explain the process to patients and families, Edson has made the rounds at MetroWest Medical with a lecture on the signs - changes in breathing, spike in temperature followed by cooling extremities, mottled skin.
"I think they all see it's a way for the medical center to enhance care," he said of staff response to the palliative program.
Not every patient needs alarms, monitors and tubes at the end, Edson said. Faced with the pending loss of their loved one, most families speaking with the palliative care team have chosen to end treatment. But the schedule and terms are up to them, and some have pressed on.
"We don't try to steer people any which way," Edson said. "We are completely objective and non-judgmental. We will honor whatever the patients and families choose to do."
In Marra's case, both patient and family were on-board, despite the difficulty of letting go.
"They're really looking to help both," Tricia Hartigan said. "To help the dying person understand what they're going through and accept it, and also to help the family."
While Edson still wants to increase both staff and community awareness, consultations have already surpassed the 100 mark in just four months.
"I feel very good when families say, 'Thank you,"' he said. "I'm totally amazed at the impact one conversation can have."

Apple Reportedly Drop Kicking Restocking Fees
According to 9to5Mac, Apple today will be dropping this restocking fee from its retail chain. You'll still have 14 days to return and/or exchange your hardware, you just won't be assessed a 10 percent penalty for doing so, 9to5Mac says.
As of this writing, Apple's Sales and Refund Policy still show the fee, so when exactly this is supposed go into effect, we don't know. It's also interesting that the timing of this supposed policy change coincides with the expected announcement from Verizon later today that it's finally inked a deal with Apple to sell the iPhone.

veeharish2005 Level 4
Do a battery calibration by following the instructions below
- Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off.
- Turn it on again and let it turn itself off.
- Plug your phone into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.
- Unplug your charger.
- Turn your phone on.
I think this will solve the issue.1

8055tsk Level 1
Well I am getting very good battery backup but for those who are facing the issue I suggest them to dry out the battery completely and charge it to100% without any disturbance or do not open your mobile.
It might work for you
I have achieved even 12 hrs Screen on Time by this method only.
And yes one of the coment about replacing the battery is also correct because it seems that your battery may be damaged due to some technical or physical issue.
So better you try 1st method for 2-3 times or you replace your battery.1
kishore.ghubade Level 2
Issue is due to software .
Please visit Asus service center and told them to reinstall same software version.
They doing properly by flashing device.

So solution is only visit Asus service center.1

And sould i update to the next version?0
k2m2_01 Level 1
Is this version safe to install? I'm confused if the issue is the build software or the damaged battery by the OP. I especially don't want to get into the hassle of backing up, clearing and reinstalling for a version that was faulty to begin with.
I appreciate any clarifications.0
If your phone is working fine then don't install the update, if your luck goes the wrong way then you may not be able to recover the battery.0

You know. I am all for consistent identity. If you have a team — and you are trying to acheive a certain common look and feel to your presentations, or your web pages, or common information that everyone needs to provide. Well, I think that's great. I'm all for it. You step up, show leadership, and rally the troops to believe in the common mantra, incorporate a common logo, make sure that everyone has their email or IM listed. And then, THEN you encourage them to get creative. To build on that base, and run with it. Make it "eye-popping" or funny or "WOW!".
Oh Well. There hasn't been much the push for conformity at all. Until, of course THREE (BUSINESS) DAYS BEFORE WE START PRESENTING, the COMMON TEMPLATE appears — no creative license encouraged.
Well, I'm not much the comformist. So I'll do my own thing. But don't worry, it has a disclaimer.
(thankfully my boss says "Your Call" and encourages creativity. And even a little Jeffersonian rebellion. I wouldn't be there if he didn't.)

The narrative voice on this site and most of our marketing is Mike. He also does the lion's share of the crafting, and had the brilliant (ahem, pun) idea for these lights. He is helped by his wife, and their somewhat trustworthy and mostly loyal cat, Custard.
We've been making these lights since September of 2004. Every light we make is carefully crafted with quality parts, clean bottles and high-grade wood. It takes an embarrassingly long time to complete one of these lights, but we enjoy doing it and hope you enjoy looking at it in your own home!

We want you to be happy with your purchases from us, and will strive to give you the best service possible.

By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin,esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.
By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, lest he who destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
This all started back in May with a podcast sermon that was based on this passage from Hebrews.
You may have heard sermons in the past comparing the Passover in Egypt with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
At the beginning of the summer, I heard three.
An archived message from a pastor who is already in heaven just happened to complement another pastor's message that was on Youtube a few weeks before. Both of those corresponded with my current pastor's sermon that same week.
None were exactly the same, but they were intermingled:
- You must make it known where you stand and refuse any former way of life that contradicts following Christ.
- You cannot hide the lamb's blood from your doorposts.
Speaking of Moses, did anyone else believe The Ten Commandments movie was the real story?
For those of us who were in Moses 101 – read Exodus, chapter 2.
I was probably in my late twenties before I started to read and understand the Bible, how Moses was born, and the journey that brought him back to being the leader of the Israelites.
Don't get me wrong, I like the movie and you get to use your imagination for a visual of the events (which is always good for me).
One of the first things I learned (that blew my mind) was how the plagues weren't just random plagues.
God took the false Egyptian gods, and turned around and used them to inflict the plagues with a VERY, personal meaning.
He made it clear to Pharaoh and everyone else there was only One True God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I AM.
- Hapi – Egyptian God of the Nile (water bearer) = Egyptian Plague – Water in the Nile River turned to blood
- Heket – Egyptian Goddess of Fertility (had the head of a frog) = Egyptian Plague – Frogs coming from the Nile River
- Geb – Egyptian God of the Earth (was over the dust of the earth) = Egyptian Plague – Lice from the dust of the earth
- Khepri – Egyptian God of creation (had the head of a fly) = Egyptian Plague – Swarms of Flies
- Hathor – Egyptian Goddess of Love and Protection (depicted with the head of a cow) = Egyptian Plague – Death of Cattle and Livestock
- Isis – Egyptian Goddess of Medicine and Peace = Egyptian Plague – Boils and Sores
- Nut – Egyptian Goddess of the Sky = Egyptian Plague – Hail rained down in the form of fire
- Seth – Egyptian God of Storms and Disorder = Egyptian Plague – Locusts sent from the sky
- Ra – The Sun God = Egyptian Plague – Three Days of Complete Darkness
- Pharaoh – The Ultimate Power of Egypt = Egyptian Plague – Death of the Firstborn
I did not expect this last one because I had never thought of Pharaoh as a god. This is what I found on the Rice.edu website (along with the list above).
Killing the firstborn.
Would people in today's society say that wasn't fair? Or, it wasn't real? Would they say a "loving God" wouldn't do something like that?
Yes, our God is loving, but He's also holy and He will not be mocked.
"Thou shall have no other gods before Me."
And, He's so loving that He sacrificed His Son for our sin. He did this because sin separates us from Him, so He sent Jesus to be a sacrifice…that made a way back to God's presence.
"God himself will provide the lamb."
(Genesis 22:8)
Why was He called the Lamb of God?
THE PASSOVER & the lambs
Back in Egypt, plague #10 is coming and the Israelites received instructions of how to save their firstborn and how to be passed over by the death angel.
- The lamb, as was customary, had to be without blemish to be a pure sacrifice.
- They had to take hyssop branches, dipped in the blood, and mark their doorposts. It couldn't be on display in a back room. You had to make it known…it was public.
- The entire lamb had to be cooked and roasted by fire.
- The entire lamb had to be consumed with bitter herbs and unleavened bread.
The point was made in the LWF sermon: "Because Jesus became the Lamb for the whole world, you have to receive all of Him and not just the parts that you like. He is the sacrificial Lamb that must be consumed completely."
- The bitter herbs represent the bitterness of our brokenness. We have to be broken over our sin.
- Why unleavened bread? Leaven, like yeast, causes the bread to be "puffed up," or "inflated." That sounds kind of like our egos. The leaven works quietly and slowly in a lukewarm environment – that is our sin.
- As they consumed the passover lamb, it was prophetic of how we would be broken over our sin and from our sin by the acceptance of Jesus Christ.
This is the passover ceremony that Israel would continue to observe every year. It is still a Jewish custom today.
Andrew Peterson's Behold The Lamb of God soundtrack is playing in the background as I continue to work on this post.
I've included the Youtube link. It might be fun to click play (now) for all 12 songs because he tells this story even better with music.
JOHN THE BAPTIST & the Lamb
Last weekend, I found an Exposition of the Gospel of John (the beloved disciple) at my grandparents' house.
I brought it home because the small group/life group, that I just started serving with at church, began reading through John. I thought this old book, published in 1945, revised in 1979, would help me study outside of just reading my Bible. It was also much smaller than the Strong's Concordance.
Here are some very cool things that came together for me today:
- In Genesis 4, the lamb that was sacrificed was for an individual (Abel).
- In Exodus 12, a lamb was sacrificed for each household.
- In Leviticus 16, the lamb was sacrificed for the entire nation of Israel.
- In John 1:29, John the Baptist declares, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world!"
Behold, the Lamb of God.
It kind of takes your breath away just to think about that moment.
In Luke, chapter 1, we first learn of John the Baptist, who was born to Elizabeth, Mary's cousin. Zechariah the priest was his father, but he was struck mute until John was born because he questioned the angel (Gabriel) who told him he would have a son.
Luke 1:41-44 tells us this:
When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. In a loud voice she exclaimed: "Blessed are you among women,and blessed is the child you will bear! But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy."
Luke 2 announces the birth of Jesus:
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests."
THE SHEPHERDS & the lambs
Did you know there were specific shepherds responsible for tending flocks designated to produce passover lambs? The animals that had to be without any blemish or spot?
Dr. Rogers mentioned in his sermon that he believed this is why the angel of the Lord first appeared to the shepherds on the night Jesus was born.
It was almost as if to let them know a Lamb had entered into the world that would bring an end to their sacrifices.
One final sacrifice.
He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He did not open His mouth;
Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
(Isaiah 53:7)
THE SPOTLESS Lamb
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.
(1 Peter 1:18-19)
THE NEW JERUSALEM & the Lamb
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, having the glory of God.
I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
And the city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God has illumined it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
Revelation 21:10-11, 22-23
Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
Behold, the Lamb of God
Who takes away our sin
Behold the Lamb of God
The life and light of men
Behold the Lamb of God
Who died and rose again
Behold the Lamb of God who comes
To take away our sin
Broken hearts–behold our broken hearts
Fallen far–we need you
Behold the sin of man
Son of God–Emmanuel
Son of Man–we praise you
Behold the Lamb, The hope of man
Behold the Lamb of God

Law & Order: SVU's Richard Belzer went on Fox 5's Good Day New York this morning to discuss his new book, Dead Wrong: Straight Facts On The Country's Most Controversial Cover-Ups (reads the Amazon description, "Find out how the government has faked the suicides of politicians and government figures to cover up their assassinations"), but he quickly grew bored with that. So, instead, he decided to tell a sodomy joke and give the Nazi salute "to all your colleagues at the other division," as one does when they're on live TV.
Turns out, according to TMZ, the very Jewish Belzer, who has apparently played other roles besides Det. John Munch in his career, like the immortal Pig in Night Shift, was making a "satirical gesture toward Fox News…whose ideology he is opposed to." BOOM. Unless the "other division" he was referring to is Fox Movie Channel, and he's upset that Daddy Day Care isn't playing 24/7. Either way, he's still kind of insane, but at least in the Daddy Day Care scenario, I get where he's coming from. MORE LACEY CHABERT.

Painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth, dental sealants are a thin plastic coating used to prevent tooth decay. The dentist paints on a liquid sealant that quickly penetrates the grooves of the teeth and is "cured" (hardened) by an intense white light. This results in a bonded shield over the enamel of each tooth.
Applying the sealant is a simple and painless process that takes only a few minutes. First, the teeth that are to be sealed are thoroughly cleaned and each tooth is dried. Then, cotton or other absorbent material is put around the tooth to keep it dry.
An acid solution is put on the chewing surfaces of the teeth to roughen them up, which helps the sealant bond to the teeth. The teeth are then rinsed and dried before the sealant is painted onto the tooth enamel. A special intense white light is used to help the sealant harden.
This is a fee estimate & subject to change. Please check with your clinician for an exact fee based on your unique clinical condition.

per tooth (w/ GST)
Dental sealants are often used as a way to protect teeth from elements that can contribute to tooth decay. In addition, dental sealants are especially useful for children when applied during their cavity-prone years of 6 to 14. At this age, the chewing surface of the tooth erupts.
Baby teeth play an important role in holding the correct spacing for permanent teeth. When a child's baby teeth has deep depression and grooves, your dentist might recommend dental sealants to help protect the baby teeth from being lost too early.
Sealants can also be used for older children and even adults if their teeth have grooves or show signs of imminent decay.

4. Be Grateful
It's pretty easy to be in a bad mood on Monday. After all, you just had 48 hours to yourself and now it's back to the grind. Well, don't be. Successful people constantly remind themselves to be happy with what they have and what they've achieved. Even if you're not a CEO or a successful author or whatever it is to which you aspire, chances are you've had some good fortune thus far in your career. If anything, be thankful that you at least have a career — plenty of people aren't so lucky.
