MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. - With both the men's and women's programs winning the Peach Belt Conference (PBC) West Division, Georgia College & State University is the only school in the 13-team league to host quarterfinals in both men's and women's action this week. The women (20-7) take to the court Tuesday, March 2 at 7 p.m. against Georgia Southwestern State University (12-15), while the men (22-4) square off with Clayton State University (15-12) Wednesday, March 3 at 7 p.m.

The winners of these contests advance to the PBC final four, held in Aiken, S.C. at the USCA Convocation Center March 6-7. The winner of the tournament gets an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The last time both the men's and women's teams at Georgia College hit the 20-win plateau in the same season was 1996-97.

The Bobcat women split the season series with GSW, both teams winning at home. The Bobcats got the 66-48 win Jan. 13, behind 16 points each from Shandrea Moore (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) and Antoinette Reames (Orlando, Fla.). Reames tallied a double-double with 17 boards. In the loss at Americus, Ga. 73-61 Feb. 17, Chimere Jordan (Gray, Ga.) had 25 points and nine boards as the only double-digit scorer.

The Bobcat men swept the season series with Clayton. GCSU clobbered the Lakers in Morrow, Ga. 69-50 Jan. 9, with Josh Hurst (Athens, Ga.) getting 18 points and six boards to lead four double-digit scorers. In the 74-67 home win Feb. 6, Ty Rowland (Lilburn, Ga.) had 18 points and eight assists, while Andre Mikell (Snellville, Ga.) paced the Bobcats in scoring with 19 off the bench.

Tickets for either contest are available at the door, with the cost $6 for adults and $3 for children 13 and under. All PBC school students get free entry with valid school ID. This is officially a PBC event, so Bobcat season tickets and all other free passes are invalid other than student admission.

The GCSU Department of Athletics, winners of the 2008-09 PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, GCSU prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the Bobcats' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement. Sign up at Twitter.com username GCSUSID for up-to-the-minute reports, and visit www.GCSUBobcats.com to nominate your favorite former Bobcats and Colonials to the GCSU Athletics Hall of Fame.

New Mega-City Challenge – Concept

Shimizu TRY 2004 Pyramid

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid1

The Shimizu TRY 2004 Mega-City Pyramid is a proposed project for construction of a massive pyramid over Tokyo Bay in Japan. The structure would be 12 times higher than the Great Pyramid at Giza, and would house 750,000 people. If built, it would be the largest man-made structure in Earth’s history. The structure would be 2,004 meters high and would help answer Tokyo’s increasing lack of space, although the project would only handle 1/47th of the Greater Tokyo Area’s population. The idea partially stems from the fictional architectural marvel of the Tyrell Corporation, which appear several times in the 1982 science fiction film Blade Runner, as a duo of futuristic pyramidal structures. The proposed structure is so large that it cannot be built with currently available materials, due to their weight. The design relies on the future availability of super-strong lightweight materials based on carbon nanotubes.

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid2

Proposed start of construction has not been announced.

The Shimizu Corporation is a leading architectural, engineering and general contracting firm, offering an integrated, comprehensive planning, design and build solutions for a broad range of construction and engineering projects worldwide…

They have been dreaming of these plans for almost a decade now and it could someday become a reality. The Shimizu company has constructed great structures such as the Taiwan High Speed Rail (a high-speed rail network that runs along the west coast of Taiwan. It is approximately long, and runs from Taipei City to Kaohsiung City. THSR began operation on January 5, 2007), Pakxe (or Pakse is a city in southern Laos, situated at the confluence of the Xedone and Mekong Rivers. It is the largest city in Champasak province and is the gateway to the Bolaven Plateau) Bridge and Shah Amanat International Airport (named after an Islamic saint, serves Bangladesh’s south-eastern port city of Chittagong. It was formerly known as MA Hannan International Airport but was renamed on 2 April 2005 by the Government of Bangladesh) and now they look at a structure 2,004 meters high.

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid3

Perimeter of the foundation above ground would be . Area of the foundation is . Infrastructure is an area of approximately . Gross building area is about of facilities layers:

* Layers 1 to 4: residential, offices, etc.
* Layers 5 to 8: research, leisure, etc.

The height of each layer is 250.5 m (for 8 layers, the pyramid is 2,004 m tall).

The pyramid structure would be composed of 204 smaller pyramids stacked eight high. Each of these smaller pyramids would be about the size of the Luxor Hotel (a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. Ground was broken for the Luxor in 1991, that same year construction began on the Treasure Island) in Las Vegas.

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid4

The building would be zoned into residential, commercial and leisure areas. 50 km² would be given over to some 240,000 housing units, enough for 750,000 people. Each building would have its own energy resources (sun and wind). About 24 km² would be assigned to offices and commercial facilities intended to employ 800,000 people. The remaining 14 km² would be used for research and leisure purposes.

Some advantages include that this city would have more rapid mobility, that the city will be better protected from tsunamis, and that it helps solve the high-prices for land in Tokyo. A major weakness in this project is that if one truss fails the whole structure and 750,000 people will crash to the sea. However it is highly probable that in the future a solution to this problem will be found.

Ideally, the city will be powered by renewable energy. Unfortunately, getting power from the sea is extremely difficult as a tsunami or tidal wave could wipe out any water turbines. Another proposal is to use algae to power the mega city. Solar and wind power are also options. Even given many advances, the Mega-City Pyramid seems like an impossible job, but the people at Shimizu are confident they can reach their goal of building the greatest man-made structure in history.

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid5

First, the pyramid’s foundation would be formed by 36 piers made of special concrete.

Because the seismically active Pacific Ring of Fire (an area where large numbers of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur in the basin of the Pacific Ocean. In a 40,000 km horseshoe shape, it is associated with a nearly continuous series of oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and volcanic belts and/or plate movements) cuts right through Japan, the external structure of the pyramid would be an open network of megatrusses, supporting struts made from carbon nanotubes (allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical nanostructure. Nanotubes have been constructed with length-to-diameter ratio of up to 28,000,000:1, which is significantly larger than any other material) to allow the pyramid to stand against and let through high winds, and survive earthquakes and tsunamis (a series of water waves that is caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water, such as an ocean. The original Japanese term literally translates as “harbor wave.” Tsunamis are a frequent occurrence in Japan; approximately 195 events have been recorded).

The trusses would be coated with photovoltaic film (used in Solar cells, devices that convert the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight, while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the light source is used when the light source is unspecified) to convert sunlight into electricity and help power the city. the city will also be powered by pond scum or algae.

Large robots would assemble the truss structure, and air bladders would be used to elevate trusses above the first layer using a construction system proposed by Italian architect Dante Bini. Spheroid nodes at the connections between trusses would provide structural support and serve as transfer points for travelers.

Australian Company, Straight Edge Tiling have secured a contract for the internal tiling of the Pyramid. CEO Daiman Cartan met with construction engineer David Dimitric and lawyer Tavis Gorman in December 2007 to discuss innovative concepts regarding the huge task, as well as legal boundaries, to which an agreement was made.

Shimizu Mega City Pyramid6

Transportation within the city would be provided by accelerating walkways, inclined elevators and a personal rapid transit (also called personal automated transport or podcar, is a public transportation concept that offers on-demand, non-stop transportation, using small, independent vehicles on a network of specially-built guideways) system where automated pods would travel within the trusses.

Housing and office space would be provided by twenty four or more 30-story high skyscrapers suspended from above and below, and attached to the pyramid’s supporting structure with nanotube cables.

According to Discovery Channel’s documentary on the pyramid it would be complete within the year 2110.

It is expected to go under construction by the 2030s, but Shimizu put it down as a vision and have not added much more idea for the project and have lately taking no action on the project, but are still very determined to complete it sometime in the future.

    Thanks for posting this, it was a good read!

  8. Niclesse says:

    Thanks for the post but I would just like to point out some mistakes regarding the size posted here. The Pyramid will only be about 730 meters tall (5 Layers at 145-150m each) not 2000m. If you look at the illustrations posted here also you will see 5 layers not 8. According to the discovery channel’s website and the Mega-Engineering programme featured on the Discovery channel the dimensions differ from the ones posted here. Check out the Discovery channel website as well for more information on the project.

    I love how the Taiwan high speed rail system is “approximately long”. lol

Louisiana History

Louisiana is located near the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico, in the southern section of the United States. The first Europeans to establish colonies in Louisiana were the French, who created settlements as early as the 1700s. The region was controlled by Spain for a time, but it eventually came back under French control. Throughout the colonial era, both African and European people came to the region. Most of what is now Louisiana was sold to the United States in the Louisiana Purchase, which occurred in 1803. In 1810, after the West Florida Rebellion, the rest of what is now Louisiana came under United States Control. Then, on April 30, 1812, Louisiana became the 18th state to join the Union. Louis XIV of France was the inspiration for the naming of Louisiana, which was also called "New France." The land was called La Louisiane "Land of Louis" by Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle when he claimed the area for France.

Today, Louisiana's three main cities are Shreveport, New Orleans, and Baton Rouge. Louisiana uses a system of parishes, rather than counties. Each parish is generally governed according to a system of "police juries." They consist of elected officials who have similar duties to those of county commissioners.

Louisiana did have counties at one point in time, when it was a territory and the United States took possession of it. In fact, 12 counties were created at that point. However, they were too large to be properly governed. So, in 1807, 19 parishes were created, instead.

A 12-member jury was responsible for governing each parish in Louisiana. Justices of the peace and parish judges were also appointed. Jury duties included "execution of whatever concerns the interior and local police and administration of the parish." They got the name "police jury" in 1811. At that time, they were also required by law to be elective positions.

Despite the 1541 and 1542 explorations of Hernando de Soto in the region, it took until 1699 for Louisiana to be founded. Jean Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville and Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville, two French brothers, founded it. Originally, the boundary of Louisiana started around midway between what are now Pensacola, Florida and Mobile, Alabama. Then it stretched north up to the Canadian border and west to the Calcasieu and Red rivers, near Spanish lands. Canada was in the possession of the French at the time. Colonial Louisiana included some or all of the following 10 states: Alabama (Western Part), Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana (Eastern Part), Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee.

From 1699 until it lost its holdings in North America in 1763, France ruled the colony of Louisiana. That took place after the Seven Years War came to a close. Great Britain gained control of all French holdings to the east of the Mississippi River at that time. Spain, meanwhile, gained control of the French territory to the west of the Mississippi River. However, researchers should note that, although it was located on the Mississippi River's eastern bank, New Orleans actually went to the Spanish at that time. That was a result of the kings of Spain and France, who were cousins, working together to keep the city from being controlled by the British.

The part of Louisiana that was under Spanish control stayed that way from 1763 until 1800. Napoleon forced the Spanish to give up the land at that time, putting it back in the hands of the French. However, it was still governed by Spanish officials while Thomas Jefferson and Napoleon negotiated the transfer of the land to the U.S. Therefore, the Spanish records for Louisiana from 1800 to 1803 are potentially much more useful to researchers than the French records of the time.

France, Spain, and Great Britain battled for the area that is now Louisiana for almost three centuries. The Spanish were the first to come to it, but the French settlers stayed. Nevertheless, their monarchy didn't know how to control the region and their settlers didn't know how to control the fields. As a result, they couldn't make their colony in lower Mississippi a successful one. Great Britain, meanwhile, kept trying to gain control of the French holdings in the region.

Eventually, the United States gained control of Louisiana, ending the battle between those major European countries for the region. Louisiana became United States property in December of 1803. Soon, it had a democratic government, and it eventually became a state.

The United States and England went to war in 1812, when Great Britain planned to take Louisiana over. However, it lost the Battle of New Orleans. So, Louisiana remained in the possession of the United States and celebrated its third anniversary of statehood a few months later.

About Abby Elliott

Elliott was born and raised in Wilton, Connecticut, the daughter of Paula Niedert, a talent coordinator, and actor/comedian Chris Elliott. As a child, she enjoyed acting in school plays at Our Lady of Fatima School in Wilton, and decided that she wanted to pursue acting as a career from an early age. She attended high school at Immaculate High School in Danbury, Connecticut, where she had success acting in school plays and musicals. In her senior year she held the lead role of Sandy in the musical Grease. After graduating from Immaculate High School in 2005, she attended at Marymount Manhattan College in New York City but dropped out during the first semester after her dormitory became infested with mice.

She is the third generation of her family to have been featured on NBC's Saturday Night Live (and the second to be hired as a cast member). Her father is actor and comedian Chris Elliott, who was an SNL cast member during the 1994-1995 season (season 20) and her grandfather is Bob Elliott of the popular comedy duo Bob & Ray, who co-starred on a Christmas episode in the 1978-1979 season (fourth season).

Before joining SNL, Elliott took comedy classes at The Groundlings and eventually began training and performing sketch comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater (UCBT) in Los Angeles. In 2006, Elliott appeared with small roles in the comedy pilots You've Reached The Elliotts and Chrissy: Plain & Simple, both pilots starring her father, Chris Elliott. While at UCBT, she frequently performed with The Midnight Show sketch troupe. She has also occasionally performed comedy with her younger sister Bridey. Elliott joined the cast of SNL midway through the 2008–2009 season, in November 2008, to replace the departing Amy Poehler. Before joining SNL, Elliott had also done guest voices roles on King of The Hill and Minoriteam. She has also been featured in a number of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon sketches such as "Jersey Floor" and "6-Bee".

In 2011, she made her film debut with a small role in No Strings Attached, and appears with a supporting role in the upcoming indie-comedy High Road.

About George W. Baxter, Territorial Governor of Wyoming

George White Baxter (January 7, 1855 – December 18, 1929) was an American politician who served as territorial governor of Wyoming from November 11, 1886 – December 20, 1886.

Early years

Baxter was born in North Carolina on January 7, 1855, the son of Judge John Baxter and Orra Alexander Baxter. When he was two years old, Baxter's family moved to Knoxville, Tennessee, where he lived much of his life.

Baxter attended university in Knoxville but later continued his education at the United States Military Academy at West Point. He left Knoxville and enrolled at West Point in 1873 and graduated in 1877. After graduating he was commissioned a second lieutenant and he served in the Third United States Cavalry for three years. Baxter arrived in Wyoming in 1881 after leaving the Army.

Political career

On November 11, 1886 Baxter was appointed the governor of the then-U.S. territory of Wyoming by President Grover Cleveland. He replaced Francis E. Warren, who faced scrutiny for his business dealings. Baxter's time as governor was short-lived, however; he served in the position until only December 20, 1886. He resigned the office and was replaced, temporarily by the Secretary of the Territory, Elliot S.N. Morgan.

Baxter returned to politics in 1889, serving as a delegate to the Wyoming Constitutional Convention. Later, in 1890, he made an unsuccessful run for governor of Wyoming. He returned to Knoxville in 1892 and entered private business.

Baxter died in New York City in 1929.

Tinside Rigg is a minor top rising to 624m at its highest mapped point which is not the location of this stone. The area is part of the MOD range at Warcop as is Little Fell, the mountain in the distance. The face of the standing stone in view is cut with the date (presumably), 1857 and the letter W; the other side has the inscription, 2B.

Thoughts on Preventive Medicine

You can prevent Heart Attacks
You can prevent Strokes
You can prevent Colon Cancer
You can prevent Cervical Cancer
You can prevent Breast Cancer
You can prevent Prostate Cancer
Really? Well perhaps
You can prevent Syphilis
You can prevent the Friends of Syphilis
You can prevent smallpox, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus, chicken pox, meningitis, influenza, hepatitis, diphtheria, whooping cough
You can prevent Diabetes
You can prevent Complications of Diabetes
You can prevent Hip fractures
You can prevent Diarrheal Illness
You can prevent Nosocomial Infections
Really? Really, just wash your hands

But you cannot prevent death.
Saying that we can prevent death is preposterous.
Indeed, the word “prevention” doesn’t even apply to death
You can delay death
You can stall death
You can prolong life

But it just doesn’t make sense to say that you can prevent death.

Christian Sinclair, MD said...

Nice poetry. Any chance we might hear what spurred you on to write this? I hear a story in there somewhere.

Dan Matlock said...

No story, just a general frustration with our societal death denials and death taboos along with a frustration with applying the term prevention to the idea of death.

Christian Sinclair, MD said...

I had mentioned in a comment on Drew's recent post about acceptance and hope that our culture needs a modern revival of 'Ars Moriendi' which is really more about a different philosophical/spiritual approach to life and death and not about what medicine can or cannot do.

The book 'Republic of Suffering' is a great example of a major shift in how a culture views dying. It is about the American Civil War.

Alex Smith said...

Love the poetry! Thank you for branching out in new directions Dan.

Christian, a revival of the ars moriendi, "art of dying," is a good idea, but I'm not sure how this can be accomplished. So much of our culture is oriented toward "the science of not-dying," whatever that is in Latin. Also, I'm concerned that the idea of the "good death" may be a Christian (religion, not you personally) Anglo idea, and anathema to other cultures. In Chinese culture, for example, discussion of death is so avoided that even words that sound vaguely like death have negative connotations.

I didn't think of this but it absolutely makes sense! We do this for our horses when we go out of state. I already have a collar, leash and tag ready to go. I am taking two good friends with me to help share the drive as well as puppy duty. I was originally planning for a litter only an hour or so away but it fell through so I found these guys and fell in love. I don't mind the drive at all, we're going to make it into a fun road trip.
I already have towels and a crate set up at home but I was trying to figure out the best crating method for the ride home because his permanent kennel at the house is too big for my car. When we brought my last puppy home she fit into a cat carrier and something tells me that will not work for this one! Haha! I had heard of people using a shallow laundry basket with towels but that seems more fitting for a short ride.
It's a little more than 6 and a half hours but we're going straight through. I have heard different opinions as to potty breaks but I'm not sure which is best. Some recommend stopping but only where dogs aren't usually let out such as rest stops, to avoid bacteria. But some say not to stop at all.
Thank you for the input! It's very appreciated. I will have to remember to ask her for a "travel towel" with everybody's smell on it. I have a clock but I have also heard good things about the puppy heartbeat warming stuffed animals that go in their kennel. So many things to get and do! I'm so ready for puppy life!
06-09-2014 08:05 PM
msstone You need to bring a crate, extra water and a bowl. A blanket and a ticking alarm clock or a ticking clock. Needs to be ticking so it reminds them of their litter mate's hearts beating. I hope you are not going alone. Bringing someone with you would be a great thing. I am sure you have thought of a collar and a lease or maybe a harness. PAPER TOWELS. You may want to get water at the breeders house because changing water can sometimes cause upset stomachs. Distilled water is good. I am sure you would drive straight through but if something happens you may want to make a list of pet friendly motels on your route home. Do not feed him unless you bring a lot of paper towels. That is so far to pick up a puppy. Get the breeder to give you something that the puppies played with or ask her to stick a towel or something in with the puppies the night before so he will have a scent to travel with that is familiar and a lot less frightening. You are embarking on a life time adventure that will change your life for the better. Best wishes

Ace GSD Hey im also from atlanta and there are some breeders here . If you interested let me know so you dont have to drive 7 hours !!
What type of puppies are you looking for and budget ?
06-09-2014 04:12 PM
Hello from Atlanta!

Hey everybody! I just thought I would go ahead and introduce myself. My name is Sarah and I'm a college student in GA. I'm 3 weeks out from picking up my first GSD and I am so excited. There are three dark sable boys I can pick from but it's so hard to choose! I think I uploaded a picture or two but I'm not sure! lol I haven't raised a puppy since we got my 14 year old cocker spaniel so this is going to be a crazy adventure for me!
I decided on the breed because of how loyal they are and I fell in love with one that belongs to a friend of mine. I have spent the last 6 months researching and preparing for a high drive puppy but I still feel like I am SO unprepared! I've spent about a month checking out just about every board and post here in the forums just to be prepared for what I'm about to get myself in to. I've heard great things about how they are incredibly adaptive especially for a large breed which I'm hoping will work great for an apartment. He will have a medium sized mutt and a 8 month old cat to help shape him and hopefully be good influences.
I had been making a list of puppy names since I decided to commit to the addition but because of a recent loss of a family member, the list went out the window and he will be named in her honor. His name will be August!
Based on recommendations I've seen, I have already scheduled all my vet visits as well as obedience puppy classes and have checked out the agility scene in my area.
I just wanted to go ahead and introduce myself and make a few friends and connections so I'm prepared for the little tornado that's about to be in my life!
Also, if you have advice on traveling 7 hours home with a new puppy, that would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, sarah!

Tips for Choosing Healthier Snacks

From time to time I get asked to review snack products. Most of these offers get turned down because of their ingredient list. I’m very picky about the snacks I choose. I try to keep as much junk as possible out of my food, including snacks.

I believe that if you are eating good whole foods the majority of the time, then it’s ok to fit in a treat every once in a while. Living healthy is not about deprivation, it’s about moderation. It’s about being smart about your choices. It’s about feeling good. I like the motto “Eat like crap, feel like crap” because it pretty much says it all.

So how do you fit store bought snacks into a fit and healthy lifestyle? You read the ingredient list. If you can’t pronounce the ingredients, don’t eat it. If the ingredient list is longer than your arm, don’t eat it. Choose snacks from reputable companies the use organic, non-GMO ingredients in their products.

For example – The Better Chip Co. has great tortilla chips. Their chips are made with organic, non-gmo all natural ingredients. No preservatives, no dyes, no junk. Check the label of one of my favorite flavors, The Jalapeño Chip.

And the best part – I didn’t have to go into the kitchen and make my own chip. To be honest, I just don’t have time and most of the time, I just don’t want to.

So stop feeling guilty because you “broke down” and had a few chips! There is room in your diet for some indulgences – just choose good products.

Here are some tips for healthier snacking:

  • Check your ingredient list.
  • Check for saturated fat and the type of fat used (see tip 1.)
  • Watch your portion sizes. Don’t eat the whole bag!
  • Enjoy without the guilt!

I have a great recipe for Chicken Fingers using Better Chips – click here!

What’s your favorite healthy chip?

This post was sponsored by The Better Chip Company, but I honestly like and approve of their chips.

  1. Jody - Fit at 56

    Balance in life is what it is all about!!!! I am a cookie person & not so much chips but I know plenty of chip peeps! :)

    Hey, the link to your recipe is not there or at least not for me.

      Thanks Jody – fixed it!

Second inquest despair for distraught mother

Joy Stowe "dreads" the possibility of her daughter Kelly's inquest being re-opened after blood results were recorded incorrectly

Yateley resident Kelly Stowe, who died aged 30 in August 2013
Yateley resident Kelly Stowe, who died aged 30 in August 2013

A mother has spoken of her continuing grief with the possibility of the death of her daughter being re-examined.

Kelly Stowe, 30, from Yateley, died on August 22 last year from what a coroner ruled was an “acute viral infection of an unknown cause”.

Since the inquest, held at Woking Coroner’s Court on March 21, Kelly’s mother Joy Stowe, posed questions of Frimley Park Hospital as she felt they had not been answered satisfactorily at the hearing.

In reviewing Kelly’s case, it has become apparent that her blood results were recorded incorrectly.

Her white cell count of four was in fact lower at just 1.8 – a critically low count that may have influenced the decision on her being discharged from hospital – Dr Timothy Ho, medical director at the hospital has said.

Mrs Stowe, also from Yateley, said: “In some ways, I know I was right as a mum. I know she was sick, but that is not going to bring her back.

“I really did not think she should have been allowed to go home. I know evidence comes to light after investigations but this was there in the first place.”

The inquest, chaired by Dr Karen Henderson, heard that Kelly was admitted to Frimley Park Hospital on August 10 after suffering with a fever and high temperature.

While in hospital she complained of back pain and said she was itching and her face was sore. As she had been treated for a urinary tract infection her family suspected she could have been allergic to the antibiotics prescribed.

She was diagnosed with pyelonephritis, a form of kidney infection, and given treatment.

Kelly was discharged on August 12, as doctors believed she had recovered. However her condition soon started to worsen.

She was readmitted on August 18 with sepsis – a life-threatening condition triggered by infection – and despite intensive care treatment she died four days later.

“At the time of the inquest it was terrible, absolutely dreadful,” said 56-year-old Mrs Stowe.

“I was so distraught and felt frustrated because I knew deep down there was an underlying problem.

“I just wanted to shout.”

But she said what she is going through now is worse and she dreads the possibility of Kelly’s inquest re-opening.

“I am so angry and frustrated. My daughter is not here any more,” she said.

Having done a lot of research into sepsis since her daughter’s death, Mrs Stowe is now a supporter of The UK Sepsis Trust and wants to raise awareness of the work it does.

The charity provides support to patients and their relatives, including those bereaved by sepsis and educates health professionals in the importance of early sepsis recognition.

On behalf of the hospital, Dr Ho has written to Mrs Stowe and the coroner explaining the error.

The coroner’s office declined to comment on the likelihood of a fresh inquest being held as Dr Henderson was unavailable.

Our sincerest gratitude goes to the people of Ghana who lined up for hours to pay their respects to our loved one, those who mourned with us from all parts of the country, those who prayed with us, those who participated in the Vigil services held on August 8 and 9 at the State House and those who attended all other services held in Ghana and abroad to say farewell to our dear departed one.

To all those who donated resources, we are exceedingly grateful for your generosity. Thank you once again, people of Ghana, for your solace and support. May the Almighty God richly bless you all.

Kevin and the Spider Demon

Kevin Cloud was born in 1965 to a teacher and an electrician. He grew up in Shreveport reading comics and playing in arcades. He studied political science and wanted to become a lawyer but instead decided to pursue his interests in art and computers and took a job as a computer artist at Softdisk, where John Romero, John Carmack and Tom Hall used to work before founding id Software in 1991. He was described as artistic, diligent and well organized by his peers.

In 1992, Romero and his team asked Kevin if he was interested to work at id Software and he said yes. He left his editorial director position at Softdisk and was employed at id Software in 1992 as an assisting artist to Adrian Carmack. Kevin was appointed as the lead artist and co-owner of id Software.In June 2000, when John Carmack proposed an internal company plan of remaking Doom with new technology (Using the id Tech 4 engine), both Kevin and Adrian were against the project, feeling that id should be focusing on new IP's and not going back to the same formulas and properties. However, after the positive reception to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the latest improvements in rendering technology, most of the employees agreed that a remake was the right idea and presented the two owners with an ultimatum: allow them to remake Doom or fire them. After the reasonable amicable confrontation (Although artist Paul Steed, one of the instigators, was fired in retaliation), the agreement to work on Doom 3 was made.

Kevin now acts as the Executive Producer at id Software.

Helping You Save More

5 posts tagged as Discounts

  • Coupons for Gasoline? Yes, please!

    With the recent increase in gas prices, consumers are finding that fuel costs have taken a hefty bite out of their income. According to the Oil Price Information Service, driver’s today spend nearly 8.5 % of their income on gasoline. However, most people don’t realize that they can ease the burden of high gas prices by taking advantage of coupons, discounts and savings cards.

    Gas stations are aware of the trouble that high prices are causing consumers, so they now offer coupons for discounts on gas. The gas coupons can be found in local newspapers, circulars, or online. Something as simple as a quick web search can result in coupons for as much as 7 cents off per gallon. That 7 cents can really add up when you plan on filling up your entire tank.

    Even though these extra discounts offer great news, finding an online coupon for a gas station near you is the real challenge. Even if you do find one, you may actually save more money by using other methods. For example, filling up at warehouse stores like Sam’s Club or Costco, offer additional gas discounts to members.

    Deals can also be found through big-name grocery stores. For example, Giant let’s consumers accumulate points on their club card. Those points can then be exchanged for discounts on gas at select locations. Typically, for every $100 spent on groceries at Giant, consumers will earn 10 cents off per gallon of gas.

    Grocery store’s gas reward programs are becoming increasingly popular because people love to save money at the pump. With gas prices only expected to increase, it’s important to take advantage of any discount programs or coupons available. While many Americans continue to struggle in our economy, we want to help you get the most for your money.

  • Ditch Your Phone for Deals

    Next time you go to a restaurant, whether it’s fine or casual dining, look around the room. There’s an 80 percent chance that at least one person at every table is either on their phone or has it easily accessible. Recently, CNNMoney found that some restaurants dislike customers’ over zealous use of cell phones so much that they’re offering discounts to those who opt to go without their portable device during their dining experience.

    Eva Restaurant in Los Angeles now offers a 5 percent discount when customers choose to leave their phones with the receptionist for the entirety of the meal. Since this policy has gone into effect, the restaurant estimates that 50 percent of customers have opted to ditch their phones. Restaurant owner and chef, Mark Gold, says that he wants people to connect again.

    He came up with the idea after speaking with colleagues about how annoying he found it when people were on their smart phones during dinner. The restaurant notifies all of its customers about the cell phone policy with a statement on their menu. Plenty of restaurants ask their customers to refrain from using their cell phone, but this high-scale LA restaurant is the first to offer a discount for surrendering your phone for the duration of the meal.

    Gold says that his customers have become really enthusiastic about the new policy.  He thinks that people genuinely like the idea of being able to turn off their phone and enjoy their meal, as well as, each other’s company.

    Last year, Rogue 24, a Washington D.C. eatery gained rapid press for requiring their diners to submit a two-page contract before their reservations were accepted. The contract included the ban of camera and cell phone use in their restaurant. Owner RJ Cooper later relaxed his contract rules, due to the poor press his restaurant was receiving.

    These restaurant owners’ motives for banning cell phone use aren’t completely out of the ordinary. The University of Essex conducted a study that links cell phones to decreased interpersonal connection. Study participants held conversations in pairs, half with a cell phone present and the other half without. Couples who conversed with a cell phone present reported lower relationship quality and less closeness.

    The study concluded that interacting without a cell phone helps to foster connectedness, trust, and perceptions of empathy. Gold wants to bring those relationship building opportunities into the fabric of his business. Offering a discount for refraining from cell phone use may not be such a bad idea after all. It allows the diner to save a little money, as well as, enjoy their meal and connect with their company, distraction-free.

  • Discounts for Target Gift Cards

    Due to Target’s popularity among consumers, it shouldn’t shock you why the corporation is one of the largest retailing companies in America. What sets Target apart from their competitors is their strong brand image for being an upscale discount retailer. The corporation has successfully enforced this image by providing consumers with high-quality, on-trend merchandise at an affordable price. Many consumers prefer to shop at Target because they deliver, “outstanding value, continuous innovation and an exceptional guest experience.”

    Consumers who shop at Target not only love the convenience, cleanliness, and service at the retailer, but they also love the discounts. Target offers a variety of weekly deals, discounts, and coupons consumers can utilize to save money. Combining these deals and coupons can lead to some great savings; however, if consumers really want to cut costs they should utilize discounted Target gift cards to do just that.

He sends flirty text messages to me but he has a girlfriend. Why do people do this?

I met this guys a few days ago, he has a gf, but he def tried to pt the moves on me the other night but for one I had just met him so I don't really... Show More

Most Helpful Opinion

  • This seems like a lot of trouble. I'd say completely shove him off and tell him you're not interested and to leave you alone - mainly because of the girlfriend. If you are interested in him then it gets trickier... but do you really want to be with a guy who is already cheating with his girlfriend? Sounds to me like this guy just likes to have what he can't get. As soon as he's had you he'll move on...

Going out? Try swiping some eyeliner just onto your lower lash line. You’ll look made up in a flash, and it’ll be a lighter look than if you did a full rim.
You let her BFF borrow your fave top for a party last Saturday but when she returns it, it looks nothing like the top you remember buying. It has holes, stains and only one shoulder. What do you say to your gal pal?

Mosedis ("Maishad" in Yiddish) is a small town in NW Lithuania.

Before World War II it was home to about 35 Jewish families and about the same number of non-Jewish families.

All but a few of Mosedis' Jews were murdered (The Fate of Jewish Maishad) in the Shoah during the summer of 1941. Like most of the Jews in the Lithuanian countryside, they were killed by armed Lithuanian bands during the first weeks and months of the German occupation. The killings took place in Mosedis and in nearby Skuodos and also in Kretinga. My own relatives - great-grandparents, aunts, uncles & cousins - were among the victims. In 2002 I traveled to Lithuania, and then began this effort to memorialize my "disappeared" family along with their lost community.

The purpose of this project and website is to make available the names, pictures, and evidences of Jewish Mosedis. A database of names and photos has been compiled. Please click on any of the three big buttons (on the right) to enter the database. A primary source list, compiled in 1945, can be viewed by clicking here. And you may wish to read another brief description of the website below.

We welcome and encourage any input that might enrich this website. (Click on the "contact" link to send an email.)

Thank you.

Navigating this website:

The website contains photos, names lists, and individual pages. All are related by a single database. Each individual in the database has a dedicated page, the "individual page." The individual pages are accessed either through the photos (by clicking on a person in the photo) or the lists (by clicking on a name in the list).

Note that some people in the photos do not link to an individual page. These people have not been identified.

The website is being improved and augmented from time to time. For example, all of the photos will eventually contain links that identify the known people. Suggestions are also welcome.

The information herein is, by its nature, incomplete and imperfect. I have compiled and judged the facts to the best of my ability and I take responsibility for any errors. The sources for all of the information are shown on the individual pages. If you seek more detailed information, I am happy to provide it.

England players ‘dying’ from fixtures

Published Add your comment

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini says a congested fixture list is behind England’s failures at international tournaments.

His comments came a day before City are due to play Arsenal in tonight's Carling Cup quarter-final at the Emirates Stadium.

This comes just two days after Mancini took his side to Anfield for a hotly-contested Barclays Premier League clash against Livepool, which ended in a 1-1 draw.

"On Monday we go to London and we'll change all the team because this is an incredible situation,” said the City boss.

"Arsenal played on Saturday, we play Sunday evening. On Monday we travel to London and play Tuesday night. Incredible.”

The former Inter manager then claimed that people should not be surprised at England’s poor showing at International tournaments after playing so many fixtures in a season.

"This is the reason why the national team arrive for European Championship finals and World Cups and they are dying,” he added.

"The players don't have time to recover. To play again in two days like this, so soon after the Champions League is incredible.

"I don't know who to blame. The Premier League should have said something about this. It's important to play but it's also important to recover. You need three days between one game and another."

Mancini flirted with controversy by suggesting the game at Emirates Stadium would be an opportunity to send out a youth team in protest.

There was further criticism from the Italian over the Christmas and New Year fixture list – traditionally a busy time with the Premier League and FA Cup.

"It's a quarter-final,” he said. “We should play with 11 young players. Maybe 14 or 15 years old.

"To make a statement? Yes, because it's not correct. Not so much for us but for the players. It's not right. We'll have the same at the start of January when we play Sunderland then Liverpool in two days.

"Liverpool play three days before us. Is this correct? I don't think so."
