We?ve talked about it before, here on the blog. The current music that you hear on the radio is
On the next few pages we present 5 love songs (with lyrics) that can break a brother down if it catches him on the wrong day. We?re talking about the day that his woman leaves him, the pollen count is high and he accidentally left all of the windows open at the house LOL.
Check them out then let us know what songs you would add to our list.
O?JAYS ? CRY TOGETHER
LYRICS:
You know, me and my woman
We?ve been goin? through a lot of changes for about six months or so
It?s been real hard to talk to one another
You know a relationship ain?t nothin? without communication
How we were lying in the bed
The both of us lookin? at the ceiling overhead
Eyes wide open, about 3 O?Clock in the mornin?
I said, ?Baby, we can?t go on this way?
She said, ?You?re right?
I said, ?I know you love me and I love you?
Then we start holding each other
I felt a tear roll down my face
Last night me and my woman
We cried, cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}
We cried together (Oh?oh?oh?)
Ain?t nothin? wrong with you, no
There ain?t nothin? wrong with me, uh-uh
We?re not the only people in the world
Who go through ups and downs
All we have to do is talk
We can work it out
Oh?oh?let me kiss you eyes
Let me wipe your tears away
Let me hold you tight
Tomorrow we?ll feel better ?cause it?s a brand new day
Oh, last night me and my woman
We cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried
We cried together (Oh?oh?oh?)
Now we had ties when we laughed hearty
We?d even go out on the town and we?d party, party, party
Every day the sun doesn?t shine
Sometimes it has to rain
Just like we enjoy the pleasure
We have to stand the pain
Oh, let me kiss you eyes
Let me wipe the tears away
Oh, let me hold you tight
Let?s talk to each other, I wanna hear what you got to say
Oh?last night, sweet last night me and my woman
We cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}
We cried together, together
And then we and then we and then we and then we made love [Love, love]
{Ooh?ooh?ooh?}
Love like we never made love before
You know we stopped huggin? each other
And kissin? {Cry, cry together} and I wipe the tears from my face
And there was love all over the place {Cry, cry together}
Said we cry {Cry, cry together}
There?s nothin? wrong with you {Cry, cry together}
And there ain?t nothin? wrong with me {Cry, cry together}
We?re not the only people in the world who go through ups and downs
And changes and turn arounds

LG Optimus L9 announced with 4.7-inch display, language translation app and custom keyboard
There will soon be a new Optimus L-Series smartphone on the prowl, as LG has just announced the Optimus L9 as a followup to its Optimus L3, L5 and L7 handsets. This series is viewed by LG as a budget lineup that places an emphasis on style, and the L9 will undoubtedly be the leader of the pack, as it boasts both a dual-core 1GHz CPU and a large, 4.7-inch IPS display. The phone will be outfitted with Android 4.0, 1GB of RAM, a 5-megapixel rear camera and a beefy 2,150mAh battery.
New software is also set to ship with the Optimus L9, which includes both a redesigned keyboard and a language translation app. The new keyboard is dubbed the My Style Keypad, which allows users to adjust the key placement for easier one-handed typing -- like we've seen in Android 4.0 for the Galaxy Note -- along with a separated layout for landscape view (that you can peek in the gallery below). Meanwhile, the language translation service is dubbed QTranslator, which leverages OCR to translate sentences and phrases from 44 different languages into 64 native languages. There's no word yet on pricing or availability, though we'll be sure to let you know the moment those final tidbits become known.

Google offering Google+ for businesses, free until the end of 2013
Google is bringing the enterprise-friendly elements of its Apps platform into Google+ in order to help businesses collaborate on projects online. The company's been using the service internally, but feels it's time to launch, in Google tradition, a "full preview" with a free and open beta that'll run until the end of 2013. The feature set includes private sharing, admin tools and, most impressively, hangouts directly integrated into Calendar, Gmail and Docs -- letting you video chat with multiple colleagues while you draft that project proposal, or resignation letter. Apps chief Clay Bavor hasn't mentioned how much the service will cost when the preview period finishes, but we'd be surprised if it was much more than what it currently charges if it's trying to snare the Yammer and Salesforce crowds.

Joint Commission certifies 2 Primary Stroke Centers at Penn Medicine

Penn Medicine becomes first health system in Philadelphia with all hospitals certified to optimally treat stroke
PHILADELPHIA - Two Penn Medicine hospitals have received Primary Stroke Center certification from The Joint Commission for efforts to achieve long-term success in improving outcomes for stroke patients. All three Penn Medicine hospitals are now certified to optimally treat stroke patients: Pennsylvania Hospital and Penn Presbyterian Medical Center each received Primary Stroke Center certifications this summer and join the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP), which has been certified as a Primary Stroke Center since 2004. Penn Medicine is the first Philadelphia health system to get certification for stroke care at all member hospitals.
Pennsylvania Hospital and Penn Presbyterian Medical Center received Primary Stroke Center certification following a Joint Commission review where both facilities were found to be in compliance with the requirements for The Joint Commission's Disease-Specific Care Certification program as well as primary stroke center requirements, such implementing evidence based protocols and collecting the Joint Commission core measure data to use in performance improvement activities.
"This is a major step forward for Pennsylvania Hospital and the community we serve," said Howard I. Hurtig, MD, chair of Neurology at Pennsylvania Hospital, co-director of the Penn Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center and professor of Neurology in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. "By giving us their stamp of approval, The Joint Commission recognizes our ability to provide the very best care to patients with stroke."
A recent Penn Medicine study led by Michael Mullen, MD, assistant professor of Neurology and Vascular Medicine, presented at the American Academy of Neurology meeting showed that the emergence of primary stroke centers certified by The Joint Commission has steadily improved the treatment of stroke patients. In Philadelphia, ambulances started bringing stroke patients exclusively to designated primary or comprehensive stroke centers in October 2011, rather than the closest hospital.
"Primary Stroke Center designation at Penn Presbyterian by the Joint Commission is another way to recognize the excellent care that our staff delivers to our patients," said Sami Khella, MD, chair of Neurology at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center and Director of Stroke Services, and clinical associate professor of Neurology in the Perelman School of Medicine.
"Working with our colleagues throughout Penn Medicine, we are giving patients the highest chance of survival and lowering the possibility of permanent disability," said Scott Kasner, MD, director of the Comprehensive Stroke Center at HUP and professor of Neurology in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.
The Penn Medicine Neuroscience Center's team of neurovascular experts - from Neurology, Radiology, Nursing and Neurosurgery - provides quality, evidence-based care at the right level and right time, through remote diagnosis via telemedicine, onsite treatment provided at affiliated primary stroke centers, or with advanced neurosurgical or neuroradiological interventions available at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
Penn Medicine extends stroke care to patients outside Philadelphia through the Penn NeuroRescue program, using telemedicine systems to bring expert consultations 24/7 to hospitals in distant locales, and transferring those who need surgery and/or specialized neurointensive critical care to HUP.
Developed in collaboration with the American Stroke Association and launched in 2003, The Joint Commission's Primary Stroke Center Certification program is based on the Brain Attack Coalition's "Recommendations for the Establishment of Primary Stroke Centers." Certification is available only to stroke programs in Joint Commission-accredited acute care hospitals.

Renault Duster could get competition in the form of Chevrolet Trax
SUVs seem to be a popular vehicle not just in India but also in the global markets. The 2014 Chevrolet Trax SUV will be revealed for the auto pundits at the 2012 Paris Motor Show. The Chevrolet Trax SUV has a length of 4.2 meters in length and 1.77 meters wide, it also has a wheelbase of 2.55 meters. The SUV will rival with the likes of other SUVs like yet to be launched Ford EcoSport crossover and the newly launched Renault Duster SUV.
Renault Duster which was launched in India last month is doing extremely well in the Indian car market, however the Ford EcoSport SUV will make its debut in India in the beginning of next year. Renault Duster price in India is one of the reasons behind the popularity of the SUV in the domestic market. Looking at the number of SUVs coming to India, Chevrolet might decide to launch this SUV in India soon. The compact SUVs are doing considerably well in India and this is one reason that the auto companies are bringing new SUVs to the Indian car market.
Chevrolet Trax SUV can comfortably seat five adults inside the cabin, apart from this it also proffers ample space of 358 litres with aplenty storage area scattered in the SUV to store luggage in the SUV. Chevrolet Trax SUV will be available in India on both petrol and diesel engine options. Looking at the engine that the company offers in the Trax the possibility of offering the SUV in less than four meters of length looks bleak. However, if look at other SUVs available in the global markets, it would be wise to say that the Trax SUV is one of the petite SUVs available in the global market which is aimed at the buyers who wish to buy SUV at low price. Therefore it wouldn?t be wrong to say that this is a compact SUV.
Chevrolet Trax looks more like a crossover than a SUV due to its monocoque design which has high driving dynamics with the looks of a SUV. Chevrolet Trax will be equipped with a four wheel drive option which makes the vehicle a sturdy vehicle. The front fascia of the SUv is highly impressive with the Chevrolet bow-tie tucked as the cherry on the cake. The looks of the SUV besots most of the customers around the globe and that is what makes the SUV popular. The wheel arches are extremely flared, the SUV also comes with mesmerising looks that make it a complete urban SUV.
If the SUV comes to India, it will get a stiff competition from Renault Duster SUV which is launched in India in both petrol and diesel engine options. Renault Duster petrol is offered in 1.6 litre petrol motor, on the other hand the diesel model is offered in two engine options which include the 1.5 litre diesel engine that produces 85 Ps of maximum power and the other engine is also the 1.5 litre diesel engine that churns out 110 Ps of high power. The mileage of the petrol version of Duster is 10.5 kmpl in city conditions and 13.24 kmpl on highways. On the other hand the diesel version of SUV (that produces 85 Ps of power) returns 16.5 kmpl in city conditions and 20.46 kmpl on highways. The 110 Ps diesel Duster runs 15 kmpl in city conditions and 19.01 kmpl on highways.
Read Renault Duster Reviews on the review section of carkhabri.com and know what customers think about the newly launched SUV. Also go through Renault Duster Videos and Renault Duster Pictures available on Renault Duster photos gallery..

Leaked Tutorial Videos Show Clearest Image Of Motorola Droid Razr HD To Date
The Droid Razr HD has been making its way around the rumor mill for quite some time. Back in April, we noticed that EXIF data from a Picasa picture indicating that the long-rumored handset was in pre-production, and leaked images in June confirmed it. But today a few tutorial videos were leaked onto the web (which have since been removed). Luckily, however, we have a few screen grabs that show us the clearest picture to date of the forthcoming battery-packed Razr Maxx HD.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/1XAWgJfB5Rg/

New co-host for Kelly Ripa to be revealed Sept. 4
NEW YORK (AP) ? The producers of "Live! With Kelly" say a new co-host will be revealed on the show Sept. 4.
Disney-ABC Domestic Television said Monday that Kelly Ripa will officially announce her new partner as he or she joins her on stage that morning. By then, Ripa will have welcomed 59 guest co-hosts since Regis Philbin retired from the show last November. The company says the chosen one will come for that large pack.
The day before the big revelation, Ripa will host the show solo for the first time.
Philbin, who created the show, exited at age 80 after presiding more than 28 years alongside several co-hosts.
Ripa became his on-air partner in 2001.

Experts in rehabilitation research share studies that improve lives of people with disabilities. Topics include new approaches to improving mobility and cognition, minimizing pain, determining prognosis and addressing health disparities
West Orange, NJ. August 15, 2012. Scientists from Kessler Foundation are presenting recent findings in spinal cord injury research during Beyond Boundaries: the 2012 Conference of the Academy of Spinal Cord Injury Professionals (ASCIP). John DeLuca, PhD, Steven Kirshblum, MD, Trevor Dyson-Hudson, MD, Gail F. Forrest, PhD, Denise Fyffe, PhD, and Rachel Byrne, are addressing a variety of topics at this multidisciplinary conference. Topics include new approaches to improving mobility and cognition, minimizing pain, determining prognosis and addressing health disparities. The ASCIP conference is being held at the Rio All-Suites Hotel and Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, September 3-6. Attendees represent the ASCIP's membership of clinicians and researchers in medicine, science, psychology, nursing, therapy, and social work.
John DeLuca, PhD, VP of Research & Training at Kessler Foundation is giving the James J. Peters Memorial Lecture, named for the executive director of United Spinal Association who was a tireless advocate for people with spinal cord injury. Dr. DeLuca, a well-known expert in cognitive rehabilitation research, will discuss the cognitive issues that are often under recognized in patients with multiple sclerosis. Dr. Steven Kirshblum's topic for the Jayanthi Lecture is determining prognosis for the individual with acute injury. Drs. Kirshblum and Dyson-Hudson are co-directors of the Northern New Jersey SCI Model System at Kessler Foundation. Dr. Dyson-Hudson is presenting the model system's research on preventing pneumonia after spinal cord injury, as well as results of a pilot study on the use of platelet-rich plasma therapy for shoulder pain in wheelchair users with spinal cord injury.
Dr. Forrest's presentations address the scope of her innovative applications of technological advances for mobility after spinal cord injury. Drs. Forrest, Kirshblum, and colleagues, will discuss their clinical research experience with robotic exoskeletal devices, including their potential for affecting long-term health and well-being in the SCI population. Dr. Fyffe, an expert in health disparities, is an author on two posters: "Qualitative study of the impact of blood pressure dysregulation on quality of life in SCI" and "Self-reported symptoms of blood pressure dysregulation in persons with spinal cord injury." This research is VA funded and conducted in collaboration with researchers at the James J. Peters VA Medical Center.

Gnome de Plume: Weighty Wednesday -- Post Vacation Baggage
And I hope y'all know I'm not talking about all the prezzies?I brought back from Disney World, right??
Well, okay, I didn't bring any prezzies back from Disney. Sorry. No one in my family is as crazy for the mouse as I am.
And I'm not talking about luggage going over the 50 pound mark for the airlines either!
I'm talking butt-baggage. The 5-8 pounds that researchers have discovered most people gain during a two week vacation.
I was on the upper end of that research. From the day before we left to the night we returned, I managed to gain 8, yes EIGHT, pounds.? Luckily, I managed to lose enough weight to be only 0.6 pounds above my goal weight! YAY! I'll drop the rest of it this next week as I like having a little more wiggle room with the upper end of my goal weight.
We walked like there was no tomorrow, but walking to rides isn't the same as hoofing a 15 minute mile for an hour. It just isn't.
When we were at Disney we were on the meal plan, which meant we got an entree and a dessert with our table service meal. Counter service was one fast food item, drink and dessert. I can honestly say that I ate most of my meals like it was my last.
The? most memorable meal was the tilapia at La Hacienda in the Mexican pavilion in EPCOT. I almost licked my plate! It was so good!
Many of the quick service restaurants serve pizza. We had pizza so many times and variations that we won't be eating pizza for awhile.
There are three meals that I regret. All of them involved eating late at night and McDonalds. Good and bad news about McDonalds. Good news--virtually every town you go through (if it's big enough to have a fast food restaurant) has a McDonalds. That is also the bad news. Every freaking town has a McDonalds! When we drove to a new location, many times we arrived late and didn't have meal plans. Eating a Big Mac at 8:30-9:00 PM is NOT a good idea. But I was STARVING and this did not result in a good choice. Yes, I could have chosen a salad, but their salads are not very good as they are prepackaged yuckiness.
So with all I did wrong did I do ANYTHING right?
Yep. I sure did.
- Along with bad snackies, we bought bananas, apples and 0% fat Greek yogurt.--most of the time this was breakfast: yogurt and a banana. The kidlet would eat sliced apples and peanut butter for her snack.
- I prepackaged the snacks in 1 ounce baggies--it took a long time to weigh and measure the dried apples, three different types of? trail mix, and goldfish, but it was worth it. I knew that if I had an open bag, I'd simply eat and eat and eat.
- Water--I packed water in the ice chest and we drank it every chance we got. I also packed?a variety of?Crystal Light flavorings for something different.
- Sharing meals and snacks--I never once ate my own Disney ice cream bar. I took a couple of ears off everyone else's Mickey bars, but never had one of my own. We still split many noon meals. Two meals for three people was enough food . . . trust me.
- Though we may have had a beer in every EPCOT country, I didn't drink a full one. Hubster and I split many drinks.
I'm back on track, are you?
Later, peeps!

Blood type may influence heart disease risk
ScienceDaily (Aug. 9, 2012) ? People with blood type A, B, or AB had a higher risk for coronary heart disease when compared to those with blood type O, according to new research published in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, an American Heart Association journal.
People in this study with the rarest blood type -- AB, found in about 7 percent of the U.S. population -- had the highest increased heart disease risk at 23 percent. Those with type B had an 11 percent increased risk, and those with type A had a 5 percent increased risk. About 43 percent of Americans have type O blood.
"While people cannot change their blood type, our findings may help physicians better understand who is at risk for developing heart disease," said Lu Qi, M.D., Ph.D., the study's senior author and an assistant professor in the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.
Knowing your blood type can be an important part of staying healthy and avoiding heart disease, Qi said. "It's good to know your blood type the same way you should know your cholesterol or blood pressure numbers," he said. "If you know you're at higher risk, you can reduce the risk by adopting a healthier lifestyle, such as eating right, exercising and not smoking."
The findings are based on an analysis of two large, well-known U.S. studies -- 62,073 women from the Nurses' Health Study and 27,428 adults from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study. Participants were between ages 30 and 75, and both groups were followed for 20 years or more.
Researchers also considered the study participants' diet, age, body mass index, gender, race, smoking status, menopause status and medical history. Researchers noted that the percentages of different blood types seen among the men and women enrolled in the two studies reflected levels seen in the general population.
The study did not evaluate the biological processes behind blood type and heart disease risk.
"Blood type is very complicated, so there could be multiple mechanisms at play," Qi said.
However, there is evidence suggesting that type A is associated with higher levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, the waxy substance that can clog arteries, and type AB is linked to inflammation, which may affect the function of the blood vessels. Also, a substance that plays a favorable role in blood flow and clotting may be higher in people with type O blood.
Understanding blood type could help healthcare providers better tailor treatments, Qi suggested. For example, a patient with type A blood may best lower heart disease risk by decreasing cholesterol intake.
The study group was predominantly Caucasian, and it's not clear whether these findings would translate to other ethnic groups. Environment also contributes to risk, Qi said.
"It would be interesting to study whether people with different blood types respond differently to lifestyle intervention, such as diet," Qi said, noting that further analysis is needed.

Looming spending cuts hit more than defense
WASHINGTON (AP) ? It's not just the Pentagon and defense contractors that face a funding crisis from broad government spending cuts in January. Domestic programs are on the chopping block too, in ways that could affect average Americans more.
Fewer air traffic controllers, border guards, FBI agents and park rangers would be on the job as furloughs sweep across the government. Less meat might get inspected, and fewer people would get winter heating subsidies.
Military personnel would be exempt from the cuts, but neither Congress nor the White House would be spared.
At issue are sweeping across-the-board spending cuts due to strike Jan. 2 as punishment for the failure of last year's deficit supercommittee to reach a budget deal for achieving less red ink in the future.
The idea behind the automatic cuts, called a sequester in Washington parlance, was to force the warring sides to agree on a deal to slash out-of-control deficits that currently require the government to borrow 33 cents of every dollar it spends. The sequester was intentionally designed to be harsh if the negotiators couldn't agree.
While Republican defense hawks are up in arms over $55 billion in cuts that would slam the military next year and wreak havoc in the jobs-rich defense industry, there's been relatively little attention paid to a matching $55 billion cut from domestic programs.
"The situation on the domestic side is just as bad as the situation on the defense side, but you don't have as many contractors who are willing to lobby and scream publicly," said budget expert Richard Kogan of the liberal-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
The impact of the cuts is shrouded in both debate and mystery. Alarmists warn that smaller airports would have to close for lack of air traffic controllers and say meat plants could be temporarily shuttered for a lack of inspectors. Others say agency managers will be able to mitigate much of the impact, especially if the automatic cuts are turned off after a short while.
Some of the biggest and most important programs are exempt from the cuts entirely: Social Security, Medicaid, food stamps, veterans' health care and federal employee pensions. Medicare cuts would be limited to 2 percent.
But farm subsidies would be cut, as would federal courts, the National Weather Service and food aid for pregnant women.
Day-to-day domestic programs funded by appropriations bills each year face cuts of about 8 percent. But since the new budget year begins Oct. 1 and the cuts don't take effect until Jan. 2, they all have to be absorbed in nine months and might therefore feel more like 12 percent.
Agency budget officials could begin husbanding resources in October, but only if they're willing to flout White House and congressional directives to maintain normal spending through the election and up to January.
Last year's budget law requires cutting every "program, project and activity" by an equal percentage, so managers have no choice but to cut payroll costs. They're more likely, however, to furlough workers temporarily rather than lay them off, especially since few believe that Congress would let a sequester drag on for months. Laying off federal workers also takes time; generally they enjoy more legal rights than private-sector employees.
Once the election is over, intense negotiations are expected on sidestepping the sequester and the expiration of former President George W. Bush's tax cuts. The two events have been dubbed a "fiscal cliff" because many economists fear the combination will plunge the country back into recession.
While there's no guarantee that the negotiations will bear fruit, few people in Washington believe a sequester would remain in place more than a few weeks.
"I don't think anybody can be confident that anything's going to happen in the lame duck" session of Congress, said Scott Lilly, a former longtime aide on the House Appropriations Committee who's now with the Center for American Progress think tank. "People find it so absurd that they don't think it's at all possible that it's going to happen. And when they find out it has happened, the reaction is going to be extreme. Sometime in January you're going to see the Congress finally come to its senses."
The real-world impact of a short sequester of several weeks would vary program by program. For example, Education Department grants to school districts are sent out in early fall and wouldn't be affected unless the sequester dragged on for months. The same for a program like Head Start, in which funding is delivered to states in the summer.
But labor-intensive programs like air traffic control, meat inspection and Transportation Security Administration screening at airports would be affected immediately. Fewer employees at national parks could mean closed campgrounds and less access for visitors, and there would be fewer workplace safety inspectors at job sites.
Cuts in other federal programs might go unnoticed for a while. For example, many people eligible for subsidized housing vouchers are already on waiting lists. Their wait would just be longer.
The impact would be more pronounced if gridlock persisted and the sequester lasted a year.
In testimony to Congress earlier this month, acting White House Budget Director Jeffrey Zients said the automatic spending cuts would mean that 700,000 fewer low-income women and children would receive food aid and 100,000 preschool kids would lose places in Head Start
Zients said such cuts "would jeopardize critical programs that improve children's health and education, adversely impacting future generations."
Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, who chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee panel responsible for education and health-related spending, released a staff report last month which broke the cuts down further.
It estimated that the sequester could mean more than 12,000 HIV-positive people would lose access to their antiviral drugs, and that a $2.7 billion cut in federal funding for Title I grants to schools, special education funding and Head Start could mean more than 46,000 lost jobs.
"Some members of Congress warn that defense contracting firms will lay off employees if sequestration goes into effect," Harkin said at a recent hearing. "They say nothing of the tens of thousands of teachers, police officers and other public servants in communities all across America who would also lose their jobs. A laid-off teacher is just as unemployed as a laid-off defense contractor."
