Sage Sara Nightstand
Cute Little Nightstand!
These night stands are adorable! The quality is decent - my only complaint is that the drawer does not have a wheel/slider, it just opens and closes along the wood (hence 4/5 for "Meets Expectations").
These are perfect for the guest bedroom - they go nicely with a "Russian Blue" wall and Sage colored sheets. The Sage is light, but common, so you won't have a problem finding other items for the room to match the nightstand.
The paint is sort of "pre worn," so it has that feel of a cottage or of antique, which I like.
Overall, the price is right and they are super cute!! :)

Hard to put together
Overall, I like the look of the nightstand. However, I did get it shipped and one of the panels was pretty badly cracked. I opted to wood glue and clamp rather than go through the return process, so I can't downgrade for that.
It was surprisingly arduous to put together. I think this largely is due to the fact that the included allen wrench wasn't a good size/fit, so you couldn't just continuously turn it for all the screws (if that makes sense).
Overall, I like the look now that it's finished, but I definitely didn't enjoy putting it together.

Overview Video What does this mean?
Words from Joe Bonamassa on his VOS Limited Run:
With the interest and international intrigue in the Candy Apple Blue versions of my Les Paul model, both Gibson along with Wildwood guitars and I started to think of other colors we could do. Sunburst was the logical choice. But the real challenge was blending the black back with the sunburst. I think Gibson really nailed it. It looks very natural to me. The guitar is a standard Joe B model un-aged. Rick Gembar was nice enough to drive it 4 hours from Nashville to Lexington Kentucky for me. I took it out of the case at 7:30 and by 8:20 it was onstage at the Lexington Opera House in front of 1500 people. I told my tech Dave after I handed it back to him that it was immediately my favorite of the ones that I own. Yes even better than #052. I hope everybody who buys them enjoys these guitars as much as I do. And if I could give the perspective owners any advice. Please play them. Beat them up, bond with them and take them out on the gig. Its what the whole purpose of the guitar was to start. I want them to be cherished and played and enjoyed then passed down. So no closet classics with the tags still on them 5 years from now, ok guys and gals. Thank you to all at Wildwood Guitars for being so supportive of the model from day one. I am honored you guys are doing this and sleep well knowing they are in great hands and will go to a good loving home. All the Best and play loud!!!

BLUES (47-16-7) at PENGUINS (46-19-5)
Last 10: St. Louis 7-2-1; Pittsburgh 6-3-1
Season series: The St. Louis Blues and Pittsburgh Penguins are playing for the second and final time. The Blues won 2-1 in St. Louis on Nov. 9.
Big story: Each team is first in its division, but while the Penguins are cruising to the Metropolitan Division title, the Blues suddenly find themselves having to hold off the Chicago Blackhawks for the top spot in the Central Division after losing consecutive games on the road.
Team Scope:
Blues: St. Louis led 1-0 after the first period against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday afternoon, but an 0-for-6 performance on the power play led to a 4-1 loss. Combined with a 4-0 defeat in Chicago on Wednesday, the Blues have lost back-to-back games while being outscored 8-1. Their lead over the Blackhawks is down to four points, though the Blues also have a game in hand.
Coach Ken Hitchcock isn't happy with the results in the last two games.
"Our level of determination in the offensive zone isn't what it's going to need to be to beat great goaltending," Hitchcock said. "We're going to have to find a way to get to a much higher level of compete in the offensive zone."
Penguins: Pittsburgh is 2-2-1 in its past five games, but the good news for the Penguins is that Evgeni Malkin is flying again. Malkin had two goals in a 5-4 road loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday, then figured in all four goals Saturday when the Penguins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3 in overtime. Malkin scored twice and had an assist in regulation, then added a second assist on James Neal's power-play goal in OT.
"[Malkin] was flying," captain Sidney Crosby said. "He just dominated the whole night. He had the puck the entire game, drew two or three penalties, at least. He was on fire."
Malkin said some conversations with Crosby have helped him step up his game.
"I feel better every game," Malkin said. "I didn't play good after the Olympics, and Sid, he helped me a lot because he understands my problem with the loss and he supports me and helps me. After we talk, I feel so much better and I've just started to play better."
Who's hot: Forward Jaden Schwartz scored the Blues' lone goal Saturday and has three goals in the past five games. … Malkin has four goals and six points in the past two games for the Penguins after being held off the score sheet in three straight. Crosby had a goal and two assists against Tampa Bay, his second three-point performance in three games.
Injury report: Blues forward Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) is out. … Penguins forward Joe Vitale (upper body) won't play. Goalie Tomas Vokoun (blood clot), defensemen Kris Letang (stroke) and Paul Martin (hand) and forwards Pascal Dupuis (knee) and Chris Conner (hand) are also out. Letang has been practicing. Forward Beau Bennett (wrist) has started a conditioning assignment with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the American Hockey League.

I don't know about you but last Saturday night I decided to stay in – I was only halfway done with my weekend but I was exhausted. The day before I had taken a vacation day and driven down to Weymouth to watch Olympic sailing and got up super early to drive back to London to do an 8-mile hike in Surrey. So the thought of going anywhere or doing anything too taxing was out of the question (especially since I had to get up early on Sunday for a 9-mile hike). So I vegged out in front of the TV.
Not a very exciting life (even I'm having a hard time suppressing my yawn) but considering that the best show on earth, the Olympics, had been on TV for days it really wasn't too difficult of a choice. I grabbed a nice tall glass of iced-tea (I know blasphemy for my English friends) and parked myself in front of the TV. Then I watched history being made. Watching the American women's team doing the 4×400 relay truly left me breathless. As they were waiting for the men's race to start, the BBC announcers were reading the questions via tweets coming in from the public on aerodynamics. A lot of folks were interested in knowing whether Jason Richardson's hair (he's an American hurdles specialist) puts him at a disadvantage when he runs. For those of you who don't know what he looks like here's a link to his picture on another website. A lot of these types of questions were coming in and the announcers were desperate to hear from a specialist. Alas none came forward with an answer – at least nothing that made any sense in 140 characters or less.
Considering that I work with a few aerodynamics experts, I thought this sounds like an interesting discussion for the guys and gals back at the office.
When I brought up the question (via email) to my circle of experts, a flood of emails came in from around the world. The discussion quickly expanded to include cyclists as well as swimmers and body hair including mustaches and beards. We all had a good chuckle over male swimmers and cyclists shaving their legs. There seems to be a belief that the absence of hair on their legs makes them more aerodynamic. I haven't seen any CFD analysis on this but I really can't see how a bit of hair on your legs would affect performance. Most cyclists tell me they do it in case they get a road rash… being hair free makes it easier to clean the wound. Ok that sounds perfectly reasonable for cyclists but it doesn't apply to swimmers. I suspect many of them do it for vanity as opposed to functional reasons especially now that most swimmers and divers seem to be wearing nothing larger than a tea towel.
Since I'd like to avoid this post degrading into a conversation about athletes and their uniforms, let's get back to our original discussion. The most sensible response came from one of my colleagues in the States – Travis Mikjaniec. Some of you may already know him. He's got his own blog and writes about some truly fascinating things – he most recently explored the aerodynamics of a badminton shuttlecock, a chopper bike, and a hockey puck. Needless to say Travis knows his stuff.
Anyway, we started by talking about facial hair most commonly found in the form of stubble (who hasn't seen one of the guys on Tour de France with a 2- or 3-day growth). Because their faces form such a small area, he figures that facial hair may not make a significant impact for cyclists. As for swimmers, their head is out of the water quite often (depending on the stroke) so any hair on the face would be even less important. That's cool because we don't need to worry about analyzing all these permutations (as suggested by another colleague who said if I insist on doing this simulation then we'd probably have to keep all of these permutations in mind… absolutely fantastic!).
As to the question of measuring the impact of dreadlocks (in the case of Jason Richardson), Travis suggested that the best way would be to firstly characterize the flow resistance for different hair types (dreadlocks vs straight for example). Then once we had the data we could use it for simulation. I really would love to do this but the process would be a lengthy one and I'm not sure I can steal the resources away from other groups to do what would be a fun exercise. Of course if any of you have done this type of research before I'd love to hear from you.
In the meantime, I'm desperately trying to get tickets to Paralympic track cycling. I've had the privilege of watching the Olympics ladies road race, men's time trials and sailing so I'm hoping with a bit of luck and a stiff wind behind me that I'd get the tickets to go cheer on a few more heroes from this little planet of ours.
Until next time,
PS. I had an absolute blast watching the sailing events. The venue was breathtakingly beautiful and it was lovely watching CFD up-close and personal yet again!

A congenital cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye that is present at birth. The lens of the eye is normally clear. It focuses light that comes into the eye onto the retina .
Cataract - congenital
Unlike most cataracts, which occur with aging, congenital cataracts are present at birth.
Congenital cataracts are rare. In most patients, no cause can be found.
Congenital cataracts often occur as part of the following birth defects:
Congenital cataracts usually look different than other forms of cataract.
Symptoms include:
To diagnose congenital cataract, the infant should have a complete eye examination by an ophthalmologist. The infant may also need to be examined by a pediatrician who is experienced in treating inherited disorders. Blood tests or x-rays may also be needed.
If congenital cataracts are mild and do not affect vision, they may not need to be treated, especially if they are in both eyes.
Moderate to severe cataracts that affect vision, or a cataract that is in only one eye, will need to be treated with cataract removal surgery. In most (noncongenital) cataract surgeries, an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is inserted into the eye. The use of IOLs in infants is controversial. Without an IOL, the infant will need to wear a contact lens.
Patching to force the child to use the weaker eye is often needed to prevent amblyopia .
The infant may also need to be treated for the inherited disorder that is causing the cataracts.
Removing a congenital cataract is usually a safe, effective procedure. The child will need follow-up for vision rehabilitation. Most infants have some level of "lazy eye" (amblyopia) before the surgery and will need to use patching.
With cataract surgery there is a very slight risk of:
Infants who have surgery for congenital cataracts are likely to develop another type of cataract, which may need further surgery or laser treatment.
Many of the diseases that are associated with congenital cataract can also affect other organs.
Call for an urgent appointment with your baby's health care provider if you notice that the pupil of one or both eyes appears white or cloudy, or if the child seems to ignore part of their visual world.
If you have a family history of inheritable disorders that could cause congenital cataracts, consider seeking genetic counseling.

… since last Spring. It was pretty much business as usual, and the review of visiting IPs suggested maintaining an e-presence in French was more important than in English.
Anyway, aside from a trip in Romania and Bulgaria this summer and a few day trips within Switzerland (see galleries), not much news. Coming up are:
- a trip to Berlin for New Year, with the usual photo gallery;
- a return to Paris (likely for two years) next September.
There should be a new variation of the blog once in Paris, which should be almost 100% focused on photo galleries (big project in mind), hence no need to handle both French and English versions anymore. It will be available on

HILLSDALE, Mo. (KMOV) – Fire officials say a large Hillsdale home was severely damaged in an early morning fire on Tuesday.
Crews responded to the scene of a first-alarm house fire in the 2100 block of Rosebud shortly after 4 a.m.
When firefighters arrived on the scene, they reported that the home was fully engulfed in flames. It took the efforts of five fire departments to contain and put out the flames.
The home is said to have suffered severe damage, mostly to the second floor. Due to the response and efforts of surrounding fire departments, nearby homes were not damaged, officials said.

The UC Statewide IPM Program provides new resources to help workers identify the light brown apple moth.
Nursery workers are our first line of defense in detecting light brown apple moth when growing ornamental plants in commercial nurseries. A new brochure and video can help those in the field distinguish light brown apple moth from several look-alike caterpillars.
Light brown apple moth is currently under a California Department of Food and Agriculture quarantine that regulates the interstate shipment of plants to keep the moth from spreading to new areas. It has been quarantined in various counties throughout coastal California ranging from Mendocino to San Diego.
Correct field identification of the light brown apple moth is the first step in containing the spread of this moth. Unfortunately several other leafroller caterpillars, including the orange tortrix, omnivorous leafroller, avocado leafroller, and apple pandemic moth, look similar to light brown apple moth caterpillars. This makes photo identification tools that can go into the field with workers, like the Field Identification Guide for Light Brown Apple Moth in California Nurseries, a useful resource for nursery workers.
The field guide was created by Steven Tjosvold, Neal Murray, University of California Cooperative Extension; Marc Epstein, Obediah Sage, California Department of Food and Agriculture; and Todd Gilligan, Colorado State University with the Statewide Integrated Pest Management Program (UC IPM).
An exotic and invasive pest from Australia, light brown apple moth has a host range of more than two thousand plants. It is a pest to a wide range of ornamental and agricultural crops, including caneberries, strawberries, citrus, stone fruit, apples, and grapes. The caterpillars eat leaves and buds, leading to weak or disfigured plants. They also can feed directly on fruit, causing the fruit to be unmarketable.
For more information on light brown apple moth and other leafrollers found in nurseries, see the UC Pest Management Guidelines for Floriculture and Nurseries.

LBAM--Not Your Typical Invader
UC Berkeley professor Nick Mills will head to UC Davis on Wednesday, Feb. 20 to speak on just that: "The Light Brown Apple Moth--Not a Typical Invader."
The seminar, hosted by the UC Davis Department of Entomology, is set from 12:10 to 1 p.m. in Room 1022 of the Life Sciences Addition, corner of Hutchison and Kleiber Hall drives.
Mills, with the UC Berkeley Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management, says "exotic insect pests typically become invasive by building populations and spreading through a new geographic region in the absence of constraints from co-evolved natural enemies. While it is well known that environments can differ substantially in their resistance to invasions of alien species little is known of the factors responsible for this variation."
The light brown apple moth, aka LBAM, has caused quite a stir since its detection in California in 2006. That's when emeritus professor Jerry Powell of UC Berkeley discovered the invader in his back yard in Berkeley.
As a leafrolling caterpillar, LBAM loves just about everything from A to Z: apple, apricot, beans, caneberries (blackberry, blueberry, boysenberry, raspberry), cabbage, camellia, chrysanthemum, citrus, clover, cole crops, eucalyptus, jasmine, kiwifruit, peach, pear, persimmon, plantain, pumpkin, strawberry, tomato, rose and zea mays (corn).
Mills says that since its discovery in California, LBAM "has accumulated a rich set of resident parasitoid species comparable to that seen in its native Australia. However, in contrast to the low levels of parasitism that invasive hosts typically experience from resident parasitoids, parasitism levels for light brown apple moth are very high."
He will discuss, among other things, "the importance of resident parasitoids as barriers to the invasions of light brown apple moth in California."
Plans are to record the seminar for later posting on UCTV. Hosting the seminar is entomologist Mary Louise Flint of the Department of Entomology/UC Statewide Integrated Pest Management Program.

Medfly and Moth Wars
James R. Carey is used to dissent.
The entomology professor at the University of California, Davis, fervently believes that the Mediterranean fruit fly and light brown apple moth, two exotic and invasive pests, have long been established in California and cannot be eradicated.
Trying to eradicate them, he says, is like "throwing money down a rathole."
Check out the current (Jan. 8th) edition of Science Magazine and read the three-page NewsFocus piece headlined "From Medfly to Moth: Raising a Buzz of Dissent."
This is sure to garner a plethora of comments, concern and criticism. This is about as high-profile as it gets in the scientific community. And this is not the message that the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) is trying to get across. (See CDFA's Web site on the light brown apple moth).
Carey, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, just completed a term as the chair of the UC Systemwide Academic Senate University Committee on Research Policy. He also directs a federally funded program on lifespan and aging; the program just received a $3.4 million grant renewal from the National Institute on Aging.
"James Carey is at it again," began writer Ingfei Chen of Santa Cruz. "In the early 1990s, as a scientific adviser in California's unpopular pesticide-spraying war against the Mediterranean fruit fly, the entomologist vocally charged that the state's program was fundamentally flawed. Bucking conventional wisdom, Carey claimed that the Medfly was already established, defying the eradication attempt."
Fast forward to February 2007 and the discovery in California (Bay Area) of a new invasive pest, the light brown apple moth, a native of Australia.
Aerial spraying of a pheromone resulted in a "red-hot-public ruckus, forcing the state to shift to a plan to release zillions of sterile moths...And once again, Carey has surfaced as a relentless voice of dissent," Chen wrote.
Carey insists it can't be eradicated, that it's here to stay and we ought to focus on pest management, not eradication.
What's next? Michael Parrella, professor and chair of the Department of Entomology wants to organize a spring conference "to reexamine the invasive species-policy paradigm from to bottom," Chen wrote.
"The goal," she wrote, "is an open dialogue with major stakeholders," including the U.S. Department of Agriculture and CDFA.
Carey told us today that Parrella plans to meet with him and a group of other entomologists next week to discuss the proposed workshop.
"It would be nice to think we could sit down and discuss things," Parrella told Chen in the Science Magazine article. "It's not us versus them."

Light Brown Apple Moth
LBAM: What's the Status?
Remember the ravenous light brown apple moth (LBAM) and all the controversy?
The invasive agricultural pest, from Down Under, soars high on the agenda at the Northern California Entomology Society's meeting on Thursday, Nov. 5 in Concord. Also on the agenda: honey bee regulatory research.
The meeting, open to the public, will be held from 9:15 to 2:30 p.m. in the Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District office, 155 Mason Circle, Concord.
Extension Apiculturist Eric Mussen of the UC Davis Department of Entomology faculty and secretary-treasurer of the society, said attendance at the meeting is free. The only fee is the $15 catered lunch.
In addition to LBAM and other exotic invasive pests, the meeting will include a talk on "Honey Bee Regulatory Research" by Mike Beevers of California Agriculture Research, Fresno.
"Mike is involved with research on the effects of pesticides on honey bees," Mussen said. "Consideration of honey bees always has been important, but colony collapse disorder (CCD) has brought extreme attention to the possible consequences of bees becoming contaminated with insecticide residues, especially the 'sublethal effects.'"
The meeting begins at 9:15 a.m. with registration and coffee.
The schedule:
9:30 a.m.: "Biological Control Agents for Light Brown Apple Moth," Nick Mills of UC Berkeley
10:15 a.m.: "New Exotic Pests and Invasives of Regulatory Significance in California," Kevin Hoffman, Plant Diagnostic Center, California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA)
11 a.m. "Responding to New California State Pests: Control Programs and Pesticide Products," by Duane Schnabel, CDFA Pest Detection and Emergency Projects
11:45 a.m.: Annual business meeting, with election of new president
12 Noon: Catered lunch by Kinder's Custom Meats ($15 per person, reservations required with Eric Mussen)
1:15: "Update on Light Brown Apple Moth Eradication Program," by Laura Irons of CDFA's Light Brown Apple Moth Program
2 p.m.: "Honey Bee Regulatory Research" by Mike Beevers, California Agriculture, Fresno
Those planning to attend should contact Mussen at (530) 752-0472 or e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com. For those needing continuing education hours in Laws and Regulations, California Department of Pesticide Regulation, this meeting will satisfy three hours, he said.
The Nor Cal society membership is comprised of university faculty, researchers, pest abatement professionals, students and other interested persons. Susan Sawyer of the Pest Detection/Emergency Projects, CDFA, has served as president for the last two years.
The society meets the first Thursday in February; the first Thursday in May and the first Thursday in November. Membership dues are $10 year.

Good Question
Most entomologists I know maintain a keen sense of humor.
They have to, or the insects (or the people concerned about them) will drive them buggy!
At the Northern California Entomology Society meeting in
He talked about the release of several parasitoids, including Trichogramma sp., an egg parasitoid; Meteorus trachynotus, a larval parasitoid; and Enytus eureka, a larval parasitoid.
These are the critters that can kill the light brown apple moth. The pest, known as LBAM or the "eat-everything moth," loves the Califonria climate.
Roltsch talked about biocontrol test sites in the
Roltsch, a CDFA senior environmental research scientist who received his doctorate in entomology from
And now LBAM.
LBAM lays about 60 eggs at a time, sometimes up to 100. It's a native of
Its hosts include crops (grape vines, pome, stone fruit and citrus), shrubs (coral pea, tea tree, broom and Asteracae, the sunflower family) and weeds (capeweed, plantain and dock).
Roltsch talked about how much LBAM loves the Australian tea tree (Leptospermum laevigatium); manzanita, bottle brush, and other plants.
But wait, he didn't say anything about my favorite plant, the New Zealand tea tree, Leptospermum scoparium keatleyi. A sea captain named Edward John "Ted" Keatley (probably one of my relatives) discovered the cultivar in the early 1900s in
I'm sure LBAM loves that plant, too, just as it loves everything else. It's not a picky eater.
During the question and answer period, a Contra Costa County resident asked Roltsch: "How did LBAM know to settle in three counties that do not allow aerial spraying:
That question drew one of the biggest laughs of the day.
Ol' LBAM is a clever cuss. It not only eats everything but it's trained in survival skills.
I do know this: Capt. Keatley had nothing to do with transporting LBAM here.

Pope Francis is in the midst of a week-long trip to Asia. Here are 12 facts about the leader of the Catholic church.
1. Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the Archbishop of Buenos Aires, was selected as the 266th pope by 115 cardinals.
2. Pope Francis is the first Jesuit pontiff chosen to lead the world's 1.2 billion Catholics.
3. He is the first pope from Argentina, the Americas and the Southern Hemisphere.
4. The new pontiff was born in Buenos Aires in 1936. The son of immigrants, he is of Italian descent.
5. After years of teaching at Catholic school and seminaries and spending time counseling priests, Bergoglio became the new archbishop of Buenos Aires in 1998 and was made cardinal in 2001.
6. The new pope broke historic ground by choosing the name Francis, as this is the first time the name is being used by a pope, said CNN Vatican expert John Allen. Pope Francis chose his name in honor of St. Francis of Assisi because he is a lover of the poor.
7. Pope Francis is known for his humble lifestyle. As archbishop of Buenos Aires, he took public transportation and cooked his own meals at home.
8. Pope Francis is considered a straight-shooter who adheres to the church's most conservative wing. He opposes same-sex marriage and abortion.
9. In the 2005 papal election, he was the runner-up, receiving 40 votes on the third ballot and losing to now-Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI.
10. Pope Francis only has one lung, causing him to often speak softly. He had an infection when he was young and one lung was removed.
11. Pope Francis is said to be a huge soccer fan, particularly of the San Lorenzo soccer club, one of Argentina's top clubs.
12. A complaint was filed against Pope Francis in 2005 alleging his complicity in the 1976 kidnapping of two liberal Jesuit priests. Francis denied the charge.

There are a lot of perfectly reasonable reasons to get any of agi/armor/threat to hands, or armor/dodge/agi/def to cloak; none of them are strictly better or worse than each other as long as you're choosing the right one for your situation.

Losing 30 stam and 10 agi by going from Clefthide to Heavy Knothide costs...one point? But then losing 2 stam going from Heavy Knothide to Knothide costs 4 points again.Head has some issues, too. Presence of Might, which has 10 more defense rating and 15 shield block value over a Heavy Knothide kit (and which is the threat head enchant of choice for those warriors who can get it), has the same score as a Heavy Knothide kit.

For those wondering if Gillis is feverishly trying to make a deal for a top 6 power forward...
"We think we have a really strong team," Gillis said Thursday. "We don't really see a tremendous weakness.
"Of course there are certain players that you would love to have that are on other teams and (you) think they would fit in well here. They are impossible to get at this point. We are really confident in the group we have."
Gillis remains open to any deals that might come along.
"If something comes our way between now and the start of the season we are going to act upon it," he said. "You can't manufacture it.
"It's either there or not there."
Boston pushed Vancouver around in the final. The Bruins were the school yard bully while the Canucks were the A student having their lunch money robbed.
Gillis isn't prone to rash moves. He's analytical in his approach to making his team better, whether it's finding the right third-line centre or hiring a sleep doctor to determine the best travel arrangements.
That's why Gillis dismisses suggestions the Canucks need more grit in their lineup. Maybe a big, powerful forward that can bring a physical presence.
"We played the best teams in the league through the playoffs," said Gillis, who was named the NHL's top executive last season. "No one suggested we needed to have a different look.
"We got into a series with Boston. You can debate as long as you want. They were the better team. We had a lot of injuries and were unable to respond to certain situations."
Alrighty, then. Same "soft" top 6 approach (excluding Kesler), I guess.
I wasn't happy when Gillis signed Sturm - not because Sturm can't be a decent player, but because Vancouver already has Burrows, Samuelsson, Raymond, and even Hansen who all fill a similar role. They don't need more of the same - instead they need a Dustin Brown, David Backes type.

Now that the initial shock of the catastrophe is over, key Washington officials are up in arms over whether to make friends or foes of the agents who stepped between the enemy's bullets and countless American lives regardless of the legal consequences. Not for the first time, Rapp finds himself in the frustrating position of having to illustrate the realities of national security to politicians whose view from the sidelines is inevitably obstructed.
Meanwhile, three of the al Qaeda terrorists are still at large, and Rapp has been unofficially ordered to find them by any means necessary. No one knows the personal, physical, and emotional sacrifices required of the job better than Rapp. When he sees Nash cracking under the pressure of the mission and the memories of the horrors he witnessed during the terrorist attack, he makes a call he hopes will save his friend, assuage the naysayers on Capitol Hill, and get him one step closer to the enemy before it's too late.
Once again, Rapp proves himself to be a hero unafraid "to walk the fine line between the moral high ground and violence" (The Salt Lake Tribune) for our country's safety, for the sake of freedom, for the pursuit of honor.
©2009 Vince Flynn; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster
"Flynn demonstrates that he truly understands the psyche of the enemy.... Really scary, so realistic." (BookReporter.com)
"Another Outstandung Vince Flynn Book"
I only wish this installment of the Mitch Rapp series was longer. I enjoyed this book very much. Download this you will enjoy it. On another point I wish Audible would offer the early books in this series in an unabridged format. I refuse to purchuse abridged books.
"Best Flynn Yet"
If you are fan of Mitch Rapp and Vince Flynn you don't even have need to think about this one, it's a winner. If you haven't read any of Vince Flynn's books this should defiantly get you hooked.
One of my favorite authors and one of his best books. I almost had to take time off work to finish this one.
book fan
"A great book on audio"
I can't wait for the next one. I read so many books and I wait impatiently for new releases from several authors, and this series is one of those for me. I feel it is best to read this from book one if for no other reason than the book and story will last longer for anyone who has not read it yet. If you have not read Rapp yet do so you will not be disappointed with this. I promise it is one of the best listens you can find.
"Love Vince Flynn!"
Couldn't wait for this book and like his others its excellent!
"A Fast Paced Pursuit of Excellence"
A really great book that confronts the reality of the terrorist threat and the myopic view of many left leaning liberals. The book is fiction but grounded strongly in todays realities and very accurately depicts the manner in which the muslim world views the west. The action and detail are superb. The ending was a bit weak when compared to the rest of the story but that is a minor point.Narrator was OK but needs to work on his cuban accent which is poorly done. Overall this book is well recommended.
"They just keep getting better."
I hope that there are a couple real Mitch Rapps out there in the real world. Vince Flynn has to be one of my favorite writers.
This book could have been taken from today's headlines! It is a real page turner, and I especially liked the confrontation with Congress persons who apologize for terrorists, and demand that we treat them with more respect and greater rights than they would offer us! I hope it is true that we have a few who are still willing to defend us!
"Typical Flynn"
I've enjoyed each and every one of Vince Flynn's books. This one was no exception. Kept me engaged throughout. I will say that the ending felt a little rushed and somewhat predictable but nonetheless I highly recommend this book. The one complaint - I have to wait another YEAR before his next book?!
Im a machinist. Listening to audiobooks at work get me thru my day. I listen mostly to mysteries but also like sci-fi and spy thrillers
"2 credits"
Extreme Measures and Pursuit of Honor is one of the best books I have ever listened to but it was just that one book divided into two so Vince Flynn (who one of my favorite authors) could make an extra buck. I would have enjoyed the book just as much as a 2 credit, 25 hour book. The end of Pursuit was a little weak as a lone book but as the end of the both it was very fitting. Overall this these two books are in my top ten rating. Every American should read this author as he is one of the few authors out there with a clue as to how the muslim world really looks at this county. An how the liberal left makes things so much easier for the the extremist.
"Good book, don't like narrator"
Good book, but I don't like George Guidall as a narrator. I have read more of the Mitch Rapp series and like all of them sofar.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Delirium is sudden severe confusion due to rapid changes in brain function that occur with physical or mental illness.
Acute confusional state; Acute brain syndrome
Delirium is most often caused by physical or mental illness, and is usually temporary and reversible. Many disorders cause delirium. Often, the conditions are ones that do not allow the brain to get oxygen or other substances.
Causes include:
Delirium involves a quick change between mental states (for example, from lethargy to agitation and back to lethargy).
Symptoms include:
The following tests may have abnormal results:
The following tests may also be done:
The goal of treatment is to control or reverse the cause of the symptoms. Treatment depends on the condition causing delirium. The person may need to stay in the hospital for a short time.
Stopping or changing medications that worsen confusion, or that are not necessary, may improve mental function. After asking about your medical history, your doctor will discuss medicines and substances that can worsen confusion, such as alcohol.
Disorders that contribute to confusion should be treated. These may include:
Treating medical and mental disorders often greatly improves mental function.
Medicines may be needed to control aggressive or agitated behaviors. These are usually started at very low dosages and adjusted as needed.
Some people with delirium may benefit from hearing aids, glasses, or cataract surgery .
Other treatments that may be helpful:
Acute conditions that cause delirium may occur with chronic disorders that cause dementia . Acute brain syndromes may be reversible by treating the cause.
Delirium often lasts about 1 week. It may take several weeks for mental function to return to normal . Full recovery is common, but depends on the underlying cause of the delirium.
Call your health care provider if there is a rapid change in mental status .
Treating the conditions that cause delirium can reduce its risk. In hospitalized patients, avoiding sedatives, prompt treatment of metabolic disorders and infections, and using reality orientation programs will reduce the risk of delirium in those at high risk.

"CANDO" stands for Cambodian NTFP Development Organization (CAN-DO), which is one of the non-profit organizations I've been contacting with. They work with rural communities of Cambodia live in prosperous and dignified condition through sustainable forest resources management, community economic development and promotion of social well-being.
They are basically the group of people I have been working with, and designing for. In order to understand their abilities and crafts clearly, (without visiting there physically) I have asked them to ship me some of their existing products.
And now, I finally got them! These are two of their bamboo baskets and natural dyed fabrics.

University of Pennsylvania Cancer Center
Ultima Vez Modificado: 15 de mayo del 1999
Researchers have found that a chemotherapy regimen, including procarbazine, CCNU and Vincristine (PVC), given before radiation therapy to patients with low-grade oligodendroglioma or oligoastrocytoma brain tumors, causes tumors to regress in 28 percent of patients.
Jan Buckner, MD, medical oncologist at Mayo Clinic and colleagues entered 31 patients into this North Central Cancer Treatment Group trial. Of that number, 27 were evaluable. Following chemotherapy, an MRI revealed that compared with a baseline MRI, tumors regressed in eight patients, or 28 percent; tumors stabilized in 16 patients, or 56 percent; and tumors progressed in three patients, or 11 percent.
This study may challenge views about the "blood-brain barrier," namely, that drugs do not effectively pass from the blood to the brain. Some drugs are believed to be able to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, and this combination of chemotherapy drugs may be among those. In this study, the blood-brain barrier did not prohibit effective chemotherapy for a significant number of brain tumor patients. This study may also challenge the assumption that patients with slow-growing brain tumors do not benefit from chemotherapy.

Welcome to the bucket list, completing your life goals can sometimes be difficult and challenging however we hope to give you the motivation you need.
... You only get one shot at life ... So when you are old and grey, you should look back on the things you have done and say: "YES I did it!"
Just remember one thing..
It's too easy not to do something.
Welcome to the Bucket List
We are a family, consisting of Barry, Tracey, Lisa and Lee, who are going through life trying to achieve as much as possible while we are young and healthy. We have compiled a huge list of Bucket List ideas that we have achieved. Hopefully while on our site, we will be able to give you the inspiration to go out and achieve your own Bucket List and life goals; while keeping ourselves busy with activities to continue to check off more of our list... I want to do it while I can - you never know what's round the corner.
Hopefully by browsing through our ideas, images, videos and blog pages you will be able to compile enough information and ideas for a wide and varied Bucket List - no matter who you are and what you are looking for!
So go and get inspired... go and get some things ticked off your list before you sit back and get stuck in your daily routine. There really is no reason why you cant achieve your life goals. It is only your inner self that is holding you back.
Lets put this quite plainly: there are mainly two types of people in life - The 'thinkers' and the 'doers'. If you are a 'doer', that is fine, you are probably going to do it anyway. If you are a thinker just think about it and then go and do it. (I know this over simplifys things some what). So, first things first, you need to think of your own Bucket List ideas - hopefully this site will give you some inspiration. Next, write up these to form your own Bucket List and most importantly, start ticking items of your list! As soon as you start ticking things off, your motivation levels will rise and rise. You will soon become amazed at what you end up achieving in a short space of time.

There are a bewildering number of throwing knives on the market these days, and it seems that most of them are made out of cheap steel that bends or, in the worse case scenario, stainless steel that breaks. That's why we made the True Flight Thrower. The Cold Steel® True Flight Thrower beats the competition by a wide margin. For strength, we use 1055 carbon steel and finish it with a black, baked-on protective coat. This makes for a hard, yet resilient blade that will "bounce-back" from any throw. And for versatility, the True Flight Thrower has a utility edge that will stand-up to your toughest chores.

Eldensword wrote:Of course it doesn't bother me. I am a free thinking American. My actions and my theories can live separately and co-exist within me while I try to sort out this thing called reality. I don't profess to know it all therefore I cannot act on all of my ideas. Conversely, I am a thinker so finding balance can be a challenge. I guess I could ask if it bothers you that your blind support of a race that hates you will get you nowhere spiritually or socially, but then, I'd be beating my head against a wall. The trouble is, what I have said twice now, this will be the third time: You stand up for and defend a race of people that want to see you dead, by and large - Multiple races really. You can't understand this and so this argument has expired. Time will show you, not me. Profiling works, it's people like you that lobby to have an 80 year white woman strip searched in the airport for being a potential terrorist. While Hadji, Radji and Padji slip by with their shoe bombs on to the plane. PC mentality is the weakest link in this country and they are playing you folks like violins. Hopefully, you are young enough to watch it all crumble. Please do us a favor and take some responsibility. It can be strongly argued that the generation (including all of the blacks) that fought in WWII, if they could have lived another 100 years, we would have had another 100 years of a safe and strong America instead of this cowering, bowing nation we have now. Unfortunately, they spoiled their kids when they came home and those kids went on to become hippies. And those hippies raised a generation of sniveling, dependant, entitled little brats that haven't a clue where their food comes from or how to work every day. Somehow, their attitudes and false ideas became popular with other generations - All being protected by the A-1 Abrams Tank, the F-18 Eagle and the M-16, while they sit in their coffee shops and try to plan on how to help the helpless and cure laziness with their lap-tops. It's going to take real hardship to get the message through to this type of person. We have been racially profiling for over 5000 years of recorded history. It's natural, it works. Profiling doesn't mean killing, or not serving at a restaurant. It means taking educated notice of those around you that do NOT share your values or ideas. Mixing people of different values and ideas is great when they are educated and established, respectable. Doing it on the street level of America creates gangs and violence beyond your comprehension. The other races agree with me, just ask. They aren't even on your side of the argument! Go ahead and take a walk in Compton tonight and see what I mean. You wouldn't dare. Why? Wait…I feel a single sentence refute coming on…..Yes, I know I kind of bounced around here. I have a lot to say, thanks for playing!
Don't you think you're assuming a bit much about me?
All I did was argue that the opening poster's assertion that blacks and Asians have not contributed to the technological advancement of the human race was wrong. Which it is. I never said I was against profiling, did I? You have absolutely no idea about my stance on any issue other than my feelings on the opening topic and the blanket race statements being made by yourself and the opening poster, so please take a step back think before you type.
My question was, does it bother you that your posts in this topic coincide directly with the opinions of an organisation which is based on racial hatred. Your answer was that it did not. That is fine if that is the way you feel, but please don't try to say, as esecallum did, that your position is not racist. It very clearly is.
