LAGOS, Nigeria (Mar. 23)
Israel's Foreign Minister, Mrs. Golda Meir, concluded a five-day visit to Nigeria last night and left today for a return visit to Ghana to be honored by one of the top chiefs of that nation before proceeding Tuesday to Dakar to attend a meeting of French West African leaders.
Mrs. Meir conferred this week-end with the Federal Premier of Nigeria, Alhaji Abu Bakar Tafawa Balewa, as well as the Western Region Premier Chief Obafemi Awolowo. She was guest of honor at a dinner party given by the Governor General and a tea party tendered by the 20-family Jewish community. Mrs. Meir addressed meetings in several cities and extended invitations to visit Israel to several prominent Nigerian statesmen,

Woah, are those Bombers?!
They sure are. It's just been announced that the newly formed MS Mondraker team will be kitted out with 888 forks and Roco shocks. here's the official word from Marzocchi:
Marzocchi is proud to announce our support of the MS Mondraker team for the 2012 season. The team's DH athletes have been able to climb to the top of the world ranking list and are no strangers to the podiums of UCI World Cups and UCI World Championships. Team MS Mondraker will be riding our DH flagship, the 888 RC3 EVO TITANIUM and Roco RC World Cup rear suspension.
The team delivered a particularly impressive performance at the World Championships in Champery (SUI) last year. Emmeline Ragot climbed to the top of the podium at the most important event in the mountain bike world and now bears the title of World Champion. Damien Spagnolo is currently vice World Champion. At other races, new MS Mondraker team members were definitely a force to be reckoned with as well; Brook MacDonald took three podium spots in the UCI World Cup circuit and Markus Pekoll was the crowned king of the iXS European DH cup.
We are excited to have the opportunity of working with such a successful new team: "Partnering up with the MS Mondraker Downhill team is a great start for the new mountain bike season. We have had a great 2011 season and are ready to begin the 2012 season at full force. We feel that the MS Mondraker team truly represents that spirit and are excited to have them on board", says Simone Bassi of Tenneco Marzocchi.
Currently, the MS Mondraker team are in New Zealand conducting extensive testing of Marzocchi suspension products. Markus Stoeckl, team manager of the MS Mondraker team asserts: "We are really looking forward to the cooperation with Marzocchi. It is the only suspension I know that is perfect straight out of the box so we are thrilled that these are the products we get to use. From the start, working with Marzocchi couldn't have been easier; they really listen to our input and are always working on tweaking their products to perfection. Especially on our suspension of choice, the 888 RC3 Evo Titanium and Roco RC World Cup."
Speaking of our 888 RC3 Evo Ti, listening closely to our pro athletes in the past has allowed us to develop a fork that is the lightest coil DH fork on the market, only barely heavier than its air equivalent. At the same time, it offers all the advantages of a coil: stability, reliability and durability and no stress. Combined with a rear shock from the Roco series that offers the perfect setting for every terrain and makes your back wheel stick to the ground like glue, our gravity suspension systems will always create the best riding experience for you when gravity calls!

For the fourth year in a row, United failed to get points playing at Real Salt Lake's home stadium. The team scored first, but then conceded a goal minutes later. The final tally came just ten minutes from the final whistle, as Javier Morales put Salt Lake up for good.
The good for United?
- Luciano Emilio found the back of the net for the third game in row.
- Rookie Chris Pontius got his first career assist.
- Fred got his first start of the year and played nearly 70 minutes.
- Santino Quaranta made his first appearance of 2009.
- Andrew Jacobson held his own in his first career MLS start.
The full match recap is available at dcunited.com. You can read a few post-game quotes here.
The team will load up tomorrow morning at 7:45 a.m. to head to the airport. It has just four days to prepare for Friday night's game against its bitter rival - the New England Revolution. The game will be broadcast nationally on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. Get yourself out to RFK Stadium.
What did you think of the game tonight?

Precipitation forecast changes, but freeze warning still in effect
The National Weather Service has downgraded the amount of precipitation expected to fall in the Grand Valley, but a potentially fruit tree-crippling freeze warning remains in effect.
Forecasters with the Grand Junction office originally called for Grand Junction to potentially receive 2 to 4 inches of snow in conjunction with a spring storm that's hammering other parts of Colorado. Monday night, they reduced the accumulation to 1 to 2 inches. As of this morning, they're now calling for a 60 percent chance of precipitation but little or no accumulation.
The low overnight in the city is expected to drop to 22 degrees.

Junior doctors come down on demands as Govt talks tough - Tv5
Fri, Oct 31, 2014, 10:57 AM
The Telangana Government has given a shock to striking JUDAs who are adamant on their demands. According to G.O 1022, the government is getting ready to debar the striking junior doctors from service. The junior doctors are slowly coming down on their demands as government warned that ESMA will be invoked if they don't join duties immediately. Hence, the Jr. Doctors are reporting to duties one by one. In fact, the CM is keen on increasing the rural service from one to two years and make them give an affidavit before taking the medical admission.

" Genre: Health / Medical / Authors: Ulrike Schmidt, Janet Treasure / Publication Date: 1993 / Reissue / Publisher: Routledge "
* Prices may differ from that shown
There are lots of self-help books out there for a wide-range of issues, but finding one that connects with you and moves you enough to make it useful is not an easy task. I also find that many offer simply common-sense perspectives and don't provide that pivotal step between knowing what to do and making you want to do it. Whilst this book is quite popular and recommended by self-help sites and professionals, I felt it lacked something to make it stand out from the crowd and to make it truly helpful.
Getting Better is basically a self-help, informative book aimed primarily at two types of eating disorders in particular, those of bulimia and binge eating (which you could call overeating or comfort eating on a disordered spectrum). It aims to provide a thorough understanding of the 'conditions', what recovery entails and how to get there.
In total, there are 15 Chapters over 143 pages (paperback version). Each lay out one aspect of the step-by-step plan. These are:
1. The way forward
2. Tools for the journey
3. Dieting: A health warning
4. Bingeing, nibbling, and compulsive overeating: The black hole of the never-satisfied stomach
5. Vomiting, laxatives and diuretics: Have your cake and eat it - or not?
6. Learning to feel good about your body
7. Jack Spratt's Wife: Being fatter may be better
8. Relapse: Walking in circles- Or not?
9. The wounds of childhood
10. Food for thought
11. Finding your voice
12. The seduction of self-destruction
13. The web of life: Parents, partners, children & friends
14. Working to live, living to work
15. Is this the end of the journey - Or not?
Whilst I think that showing the reader examples gives us something to relate to and something with which to reflect on, I personally found them rather intrusive at points, making them somewhat uninteresting to read. I tended to gloss over severak of them because what I wanted were tools, words of comfort and motivation, tips and solid advice. That's not to say that such examples were pointless, not at all, but many were quite long-winded and unhelpful for me personally.
To break up the text somewhat were scribbled cartoons throughout, along with various tables giving worked examples. For instance, there's a food diary example, which is useful in giving you an idea of a resource you can use for yourself, adapting from the template provided. I liked the breaking up of the text in this way as it made it a bit more manageable.
What this book does do, in between the real life examples, is give grounded behavioural routes and changes that can be taken during recovery. I find this really important; understanding the condition is one thing, knowing how to get to where you want to get to (ie to be healthy and happy with yourself and food) is another thing. I like that we're given ideas of changes that can be made, rather than it just bombarding the reader with concepts and whimsical ideas.
I would say that the language used was fairly clear and concise, striking a balance between knowledge and compassion. It wasn't too scientific but it wasn't too condescending, neither of which would have been a good thing. For this, it read more easily and makes you want to pick the book back up. I'd say it's easy to understand and not taxing, but it does, obviously, require attention. To be useful, you need to try to take in what's being said and think it through. It makes this fairly easy to do, breaking the text down in to manageable chunks and providing useful advice to consider.
This is designed as a 'survival kit' so it's intended to offer practical ideas and inspiration, rather than just be either informative or comforting. It's a step-by-step self-help programme that takes you from the start of the journey and it is, I believe, one that have been evaluated in a randomised controlled trial. This gives me more confidence in the programme, and knowing that many people rate this highly made me more inclined to be open to what was being said and suggested.
This isn't just a book for sufferers as it can be used by family and friends, or even professionals, who want to learn more about the process in the interest of supporting someone dealing with such issues. Having read this, however, I would say it would be quite useful alongside therapy/counselling, as there are steps that you can discuss with a professional and work through together. This of course isn't necessary as you can use it for self-help purposes on your own, but I do think it would be a good tool to use in the therapy situation.
The information is realistic and down-to-earth, offering practical and possible suggestions and routes you can take. It's something you can pick up and read at your leisure, taking away with you whatever bits you find useful and applicable. You needn't feel like you have to follow it 'by-the-book'; there were many bits in here that I didn't feel comfortable with or didn't feel were suitable, and these can be put to one side for consideration without necessarily acting upon. If it's structured, realistic ideas you're looking for, however, this is a good book to start with.
What wasn't I so keen on? Aside from what I felt was too much in the way of personal stories, I didn't find there to be anything greatly new in this book. There wasn't anything that made me think this stood out from the crowd and it didn't resonate with me in a way that really stuck in my head or give me a particular 'light bulb' moment. Unfortunately, this didn't particularly resonate with me in a profound way and it didn't stand out, in my mind, from some other books I've read of a similar nature. That's not to say it won't work, or be beneficial, for someone else. It obviously is because of other good reviews it has received, but the thing with these sorts of 'self-help' tools is that they vary so much in their appeal and usefulness. What's good for one person isn't for the next, so it really is a case of needing to try it for yourself.
I would recommend this for someone who wants a more serious, formal step-by-step guide with practical advice or knowledge on binge eating and/or bulimia, because you should try it to see for yourself if it suits. For me personally, I would have liked something a little more ground-breaking, something that resonated with me and provided me with compassion as well as practicality, with fewer story snippets and more behind the psychology of digging deeper in to the disorders at a personal level. In my opinion, this was quite a pricey book over which I would have chosen a cheaper, more useful to me, alternative (such as something by Geneen Roth, or Overcoming Overeating).

Japan's Monetary Policy Transition, 1955-2005
This paper surveys the postwar evolution of Bank of Japan (BOJ) monetary policy. Using both qualitative and quantitative data, we describe the changes in the money supply process in response to changing institutional constraints. We focus on the transition from quantitative to qualitative control mechanisms, illuminating, in particular, the important role of the BOJ's lending guidance (window guidance) in the early periods and financial liberalization in subsequent periods. Monetary policy reaction functions are estimated and used to verify major changes in policy instruments, targets, and indicators.

North Texas head coach Dan McCarney has liked the way his running back rotation was set up all the way back to spring practice, when the Mean Green first hatched the idea of splitting time between Brandin Byrd, Antoinne Jimmerson and Jeremy Brown.
McCarney isn't about to change that approach now, even as Jimmerson continues to emerge as a playmaker for the Mean Green.
Byrd has started every game this season and has played well, with Jimmerson and Brown coming in off the bench to provide a change of pace and to keep fresh players in the game.
That has often left Jimmerson in the role of the closer, or lately a late-game spark plug.
The redshirt freshman continued to be a difference-maker late in games last week when he scored a pair of second half touchdowns in a 38-21 loss to Middle Tennessee.
The former DeSoto standout also had two touchdowns in the second half two weeks ago, when he sparked a come-from-behind win over Louisiana-Lafayette, one he clinched with a 78-yard catch-and-run late in the fourth quarter.
The way Jimmerson has played late has raised the question if getting him the ball more often early in games could help get a struggling UNT offense on track.
The Mean Green is averaging just 21.0 points a game and has often not gotten going until late in games.
"We don't look at it that way at all," McCarney said of the rotation affecting UNT's ability to start quickly. "We think that all three backs are doing a heck of a job. I mentioned last spring to anyone who was interested that we have three running backs that we like and will use. All three of them rushed for at least 50 yards and we rushed for over 200 yards [against MTSU]. It's not a matter of using this guy earlier in the game or that guy later in the game. We have three backs who are all doing a heck of a job."
That approach has paid dividends for UNT. Byrd rushed for 87 yards, Jimmerson 85 and Brown 50 against the Blue Raiders.
Byrd has 555 yards on the season and might be the best short-yardage back of the trio. Jimmerson has 487 yards on the year and might be the best all-around player, while Brown has 285 yards and is arguably the fastest.
Brown is averaging 5.5 yards a carry, Jimmerson 5.3 and Byrd 3.9.
UNT ranks second in the Sun Belt with an average of 188.0 rushing yards a game.
Jimmerson has gotten most of his opportunities late in games and helped spark UNT in the second half of its last two games.
He had six carries for 25 yards in the first half against MTSU before tacking on 60 yards and two touchdowns in the second half. All but three of Jimmerson's 35 rushing yards in UNT's win over ULL came in the first half, but he caught two passes for 106 yards and two touchdowns in the second half.
QB taking too much blame
UNT quarterback Derek Thompson didn't have his best performance against MTSU but ended up taking what McCarney felt was too much of the blame after the Mean Green was shut out in the first half of a key Sun Belt game.
UNT had a chance to move to 3-1 in league play, but fell to 3-5 overall and 2-2 in Sun Belt games instead.
Thompson finished 17 of 29 for 221 yards and a touchdown to go along with three interceptions.
"He [Thompson] takes way too much of the blame when we lose as we did Saturday," McCarney said. "He has thrown for 200 yards in six straight games against some good teams that we have had on our schedule. I have deep, deep respect for him. Head coaches and quarterbacks get to much credit when you win and too much blame when you lose."
Surgery for Chancellor?
UNT was waiting for final word late Monday on whether or not wide receiver Brelan Chancellor will need surgery to repair the broken collarbone he suffered during the Mean Green's loss to Middle Tennessee.
Chancellor was knocked out of UNT's game against the Blue Raiders in the first quarter but still leads the Mean Green in all-purpose yards with an average of 120.8 a game.
"Brelan is a dynamic player," McCarney said. "We don't have many of them in our program right now. We will miss him."

Zerene Fernandez ends partnership with Natalya Dlhopolcova
Zerene Fernandez and Natalya Dlhopolcova have ended their doubles relationship following a loss to L'ane/Maurer this week in Miami.
"We have different goals. We're going in different directions in our careers right now. Natalya is having more success and is ready to go on to bigger things. I'm not ready for that yet. I want to concentrate on representing Mexico and building my talent... right now I'm not at a high enough level. Therefore, I terminated our doubles relationship."
Zerene Fernandez will play Ciudad Juarez with Karla Herrera and then another challenger, Sans Luis Potosi, with fellow Mexican Ana-Maria Herrera.

Are You Seeing A Ton Of Bees Lately? Not Like This Guy, I Bet [VIDEO]
In the back of our house in Niskayuna there are already a swarm of bees hiding somewhere. They hover over our deck area, and I can't figure out where they are originating from. It's bad enough when they are somewhere in your house, but how about when they get into your CAR, like in this guy's case?

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
Ranka Wig bought off the marketplace, minimal styling.
Mint vest made from broadcloth, patterned by me, bias trim added, buttons are functional. The tails were added to the vest and are lined in magenta broadcloth. Musical notes on the end!! I made out of chipboard since it was what I had, but next time STYRENE~~~~~
Pants: These are a mess and I hate them and I'm remaking them but for now they're just a light pink cotton twill.
Ladybug: It's actually like a little pocketwatch sometimes and other times it's just a thing so I made it in between XD It's made from air dry clay.
Tights: THESE THINGS. So I knew only one place that had the right color- We Love Colors. And me, not understanding how weeks work, was like "oh i have two weeks until AB!!!" when it was actually like...4 days. So I ordered thigh highs in mint but they were out, so I had to beg them for the mint leggings and super fast shipping and somehow I got them in time. Then I cut them, sewed in the foot, added the satin trim, which is just pinked, and then the elastic garters with chiffon bows. Oh and painted the polka dots.
The shoes are my lolita shoes.
Oh I forgot the upper half.
Collars are not actually two collars since it'd be bulky, but interfaced white bridal satin collar, then matching pink collar tips. Then a tie with painted details.
The cuffs are bridal satin, slip on with bias trim, and hand gathered, they're interfaced tooooo
The hair bows are just simple bows and the giant pink one is sewed into the back of the wig.
THE TOP HAT. I made this costume because of the top hat and the color scheme (well and i love this Ranka song)! So the top hat is chip board. With the mint broadcloth cut on the bias. Then I added the bridal satin as a ribbon on top and lots of little feathers, a heart I ACTUALLY HAD ALREADY FROM MY ROOMIE FROM VALENTINE'S DAY LOLLLL, and yeh. Think that's all.

Sushi lovers no longer need to leave the mountain to get their fix thanks to the recent addition of Sushi Palace at Pruett's Signal Mountain Market.
"Customers were asking for [sushi,]" said Pruett's co-owner Martin Pruett of the store management's decision to hire a sushi chef.
Myat Thu Win, Sushi Palace executive sushi chef, was chosen based on his mannerisms and the quality of his sushi, said Pruett.
Win said he was a chef at a five-star hotel in Burma for 17 years before moving to the United States in 2000. Since then, he has been making sushi for multiple grocery stores and restaurants.
Pruett's customers have the option of grabbing a pre-made roll from the cooler or having a custom roll made by Win during Sushi Palace hours, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
He said rolls can be made on brown or white rice, and about 25 ingredients are available including tuna, salmon, eel, cucumber, avocado, shrimp and cream cheese. His most popular rolls are the Tempura Shrimp Roll and the Dragon Roll, which has tempura shrimp on the inside and avocado on top.
In addition to rolls, Sushi Palace also offers appetizers such as seaweed salad, squid salad, spring rolls and edamame.
Sushi Palace is at 1210 Taft Hwy inside Pruett's Signal Mountain Market and can be reached at (862) 226-9692 or email@example.com.
