China's rising maritime power is encountering American maritime power along the sea lines of communication (SLOCs) that connect China to vital energy resources in the Middle East and Africa. The "String of Pearls" describes the manifestation of China's rising geopolitical influence through efforts to increase access to ports and airfields, develop special diplomatic relationships, and modernize military forces that extend from the South China Sea through the Strait of Malacca, across the Indian Ocean, and on to the Arabian Gulf. A question posed by the "String of Pearls" is the uncertainty of whether China's growing influence is in accordance with Beijing's stated policy of "peaceful development," or if China one day will make a bid for regional primacy. This is a complex strategic situation that could determine the future direction of China's relationship with the United States, as well as China's relationship with neighbors throughout the region. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the "String of Pearls" from within the context of the post-Cold War global security environment and propose informed recommendations for U.S. policy and strategy. Substantive, results-oriented engagement supported by pragmatic military hedging is the best strategy to influence and encourage China to participate in the international community as a responsible stakeholder. Bold leadership and prudent foresight will enable the United States and China to reap the rewards of strategic cooperation and avert the calamity of a hostile confrontation.

Creighton coach Ed Servais couldn't ask for a better time for another weapon to emerge from his pitching staff.
Making his fifth start of the season, Matt Warren allowed one hit and one unearned run through 7 2⁄3 innings to a South Dakota State lineup that entered the game hitting .290 as the Bluejays won 7-1 in front of 2,694 at TD Ameritrade Park.
The freshman from Omaha Skutt was coming off one of the better relief appearances of the year as he gave up two hits and one unearned run in 4 2⁄3 innings at Illinois State on Friday.
With six league games remaining before the Missouri Valley Conference tournament, including a series with first-place Wichita State this weekend, Servais said it was important to see another reliable arm surface.
"This is the kind of stuff we're going to need in that conference tournament if we expect to go through it and play until Saturday," Servais said. "You've got to have more than one or two pitchers, and you can't use your bullpen every day."
Through seven innings, Warren allowed one hit and a walk while striking out two with his team enjoying a 4-0 cushion.
He opened the eighth by getting Nick Andrews and Jordan Varga to ground out, but after walking the next two batters, Servais decided the righty had enough after 96 pitches.
Warren said that despite the back-to-back walks, he felt he still had good stuff when he left the game.
"I actually had a lot left in me," Warren said. "I just hadn't thrown out of the stretch for a while. I just got a little wild."
Join the conversation on the Bluejays Today Facebook page. |
Creighton opened the scoring in the first inning when Federico Castagnini singled and then advanced to third on a hit by Alex Staehely. He scored on a Shane Kraemer wild pitch to give the Bluejays a 1-0 lead.
Creighton made it 2-0 in the second when Tommy Clouthier, making his third start of the season, singled home Brennan Murphy.
Clouthier's first hit as a Bluejay came Sunday, a three-run double in the 11th inning of a 9-4 win against the Redbirds.
Creighton stretched its lead to 3-0 in the fifth inning on a two-out rally started by Reagan Fowler's single up the middle.
Fowler advanced to second on a walk to Michael Blatchford and then scored when Murphy drove the first pitch he saw from reliever Aaron Klatt into center field.
A sacrifice fly by Jake Peter in the sixth that plated Clouthier widened the lead to 4-0.
Despite the RBI, Peter saw his 13-game hitting streak come to an end as he finished 0 for 4.
The Bluejays broke the game open in the eighth when Castagnini belted a two-run double that scored Brad McKewon and Kevin Lamb to put CU up 6-1.
Creighton improved to 26-13 and will play at rival Wichita State this weekend for the last time as a conference opponent with the Bluejays' move to the new Big East next season.
Servais said he will miss the rivalry with the Shockers.
"I love to play them because there is a lot of intensity involved in the games, and I think that's what's exciting about college baseball," Servais said. "I hope even after this year is over with that we somehow can continue it because it's a special deal."

NEW YORK NURSE: June 2011
by Mark Genovese
NYSNA has won a pair of important decisions before the New York City Board of Collective Bargaining that reaffirm nurses' right to information in disciplinary proceedings and require the city to bargain changes to nurses' uniforms.
"These cases set a precedent for all city employees," said Lorraine Seidel, director of NYSNA's Economic & General Welfare program. "They reaffirm the fundamental right of city nurses to have a say in the conditions under which they work, and that the city cannot act unilaterally and arbitrarily — that it must be prepared to present the facts and follow the law."
In a decision issued on April 28, 2011, the board said the city and its Human Resources Administration (HRA) violated city collective bargaining law when they repeatedly refused to provide information NYSNA requested in order to represent members during disciplinary proceedings. The city and HRA are appealing the board's ruling.
The case arose from misconduct charges filed by against two RNs at HRA's Brooklyn office in October 2009. The charges indicated that the RNs were subject to termination. HRA alleged that they falsified their time records, were absent from work without proper authorization, and lied to their supervisors. In addition, the agency alleged that one of the RNs was wrongly compensated for days she didn't work.
As part of her investigation, NYSNA Nursing Representative Ilene Sussman sent letters to HRA in early December 2009 requesting its documentation. HRA didn't comply. When Sussman reiterated her request at the grievance hearing, agency officials said they didn't have the information. She followed up afterward in writing. This time HRA didn't even respond.
Sussman then filed improper practice charges against the city and HRA, contending their failure to provide the information was a violation of the city's collective bargaining law. The charge asked the board to order the city and HRA to immediately provide the documentation.
The city and HRA claimed they had no duty to provide information in a disciplinary proceeding. They relied on a recent court case, Pfau v. PERB, which other employers have also been trying to use as a basis for limiting the rights of public sector unions to information. NYSNA argued that the Pfau case did not provide a basis for denying its information requests.
The board rejected the argument by the city and HRA that the Pfau case eliminated a union's right to information in contractual disciplinary proceedings. The board said the city and HRA had a duty to provide most of the information requested, determining this information was "relevant to and reasonably necessary for administering the contract at issue." It said that refusing NYSNA's request was "unjustified and constituted an improper practice."
The board added that: "the duty to bargain in good faith includes the obligation to furnish to the other party, upon request, data normally maintained in the regular course of business, reasonably available and necessary for full and proper discussion, understanding and negotiation of subjects within the scope of collective bargaining."
The board then ordered the city and HRA to produce within 60 days the requested agency policies, time records alleged to support the disciplinary charges, witness statements in the employer's possession or control, and specific patient records. In keeping with its prior rulings, the board found that the employer had no duty to create documents explaining its decisions and denied NYSNA's request for statements of how the two RNs violated policies. The appeal of the ruling by the city and HRA is set to be heard in state court in August 2011.
In a second ruling, on May 6, 2011, the board said that the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) cannot require changes in RNs' uniforms without negotiating the matter with their union representative.
A provision for a uniform allowance was a part of the city nurses' contract from 1972 to 2006. The allowance was eliminated after that, its value included in RNs' wages. HHC has never had specifications for RNs' uniforms, other than saying they must appear "neat and professional." But in September 2010, RNs at Jacobi Medical Center and North Central Bronx Hospital were sent letters that color-coded uniforms would be required starting in January 2011.
Leon Bell, NYSNA's HHC labor representative at the time, called for a meeting with the city's Office of Labor Relations to discuss the city's obligation to bargain. At that meeting, and in writing afterward, the office denied it had any such responsibility. So, Bell filed an improper practice charge.
He said besides the fact that this requirement violated the city's collective bargaining law, it would have a negative financial impact on the 1,114 RNs at the two facilities. For most RNs, this change would render their current scrubs and shoes useless. With an average nurse needing five sets of scrubs and two pairs of shoes, it could cost between $285 and $510 to comply with the new policy.
Although the board acknowledged that the city had managerial authority to determine appearance of employee uniforms, it agreed with NYSNA that the uniform allowance is a mandatory subject of bargaining and that this new policy "would create an economic issue that didn't exist under the old policy." It required HHC to bargain with NYSNA over the change.
"A great deal of perseverance on the part of members and staff went into winning both of these decisions," said Lorraine Seidel, NYSNA's Economic & General Welfare program director. "This is a demonstration of how NYSNA will not allow its nurses to be taken advantage of and will fight to protect its members' rights."

Few activities are as rewarding intellectually as research. In addition to the acquisition of invaluable research skills, students learn how knowledge is created and how that knowledge can be overturned with new evidence or new perspectives. They also learn how to work independently, how to overcome obstacles, and the importance of ethics and personal conduct in the research process. Undergraduate research can take place in every discipline. It is especially common in the life sciences and physical sciences, where an estimated 40 percent of students nationwide engage in research under faculty mentorship, but it is also found in the humanities, social sciences, and creative and performing arts. Undergraduate Research at FAU As part of the accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is a required component of the reaccreditation process for SACS. The QEP topic that was chosen at FAU is Undergraduate Research and Inquiry. The primary aim of FAU's QEP is to integrate and expand a culture of research, inquiry and creative activity into our programs through curricular, co-curricular and honors initiatives. The QEP at FAU supports undergraduate research through:
FAU is in the process of developing an Undergraduate Research and Inquiry office and website. This will be launched shortly and will have a number of resources and how-to's to get students and faculty involved with research, scholarship and inquiry. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES

The Aaron's ad campaign has been a lot of fun for me over the years, but I seriously thought I would never get to race that car. Darrell Waltrip
Aaron Rents (RNT) announced that for the first time ever, Darrell Waltrip will take the wheel from younger brother Michael Waltrip to race the No. 99 Aaron's Dream Machine at the upcoming NASCAR Busch Series race at Martinsville Speedway on July 22, 2006.
NASCAR fans familiar with the Waltrip brothers know that for years, Michael Waltrip has famously and repeatedly turned down older brother Darrell's requests to drive the Aaron's Dream Machine. In a surprise announcement made during the final moments of a Darrell Waltrip Roast benefiting the Boys' and Girls' Club of Tennessee, Darrell's wife Stevie dramatically handed the three-time NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series Champion one of Michael's racing helmets along with her permission to drive the No. 99 Aaron's Dream Machine during the Martinsville race.
"I can't believe it," said Darrell Waltrip. "The Aaron's ad campaign has been a lot of fun for me over the years, but I seriously thought I would never get to race that car."
President of Aaron's Sales & Lease Ownership Ken Butler stated, "When we let the fans vote on whether or not to let D.W. race the No. 99 Aaron's Dream Machine, the response was definitely in favor of letting him drive it. Now we can bring this very successful campaign and very important partnership with the Waltrip family full circle for Aaron's. I have a great respect for Darrell Waltrip and what he has accomplished in his career, including his 13 previous Busch series wins. We are honored to have him represent Aaron's behind the wheel in Martinsville."

The race scheduled for July 22 will mark the first time since 1994 that the NASCAR Busch Series has run at the .526-mile oval Martinsville Speedway in Martinsville, Virginia. In another first, the race will be held at night, under special lights brought in just for the event.
Darrell Waltrip wasn't the only attendee who had a dream fulfilled at last evening's roast. The Boys' and Girls' Club of Tennessee anticipates exceeding its fundraising goal of $150,000 from the event.

Published: Oct. 17, 2006
Updated: Oct. 22, 2007
The death in June 2004 of former president Ronald Reagan from Alzheimer's disease (AD) served as a poignant bookend to his announcement nearly 10 years earlier that he had the disease. Reagan's decade-long, very public battle with AD helped energize the search for effective treatment and prevention strategies.
Alzheimer's disease currently affects more than 5 million Americans -- a number expected to quadruple in the next 50 years. "Alzheimer's is a progressive brain disease that affects all demographic groups in our society," says Kathleen Welsh-Bohmer, PhD, director of the Joseph and Kathleen Bryan Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (Bryan ADRC) at Duke.
"It is a major public health menace as our population ages, and it is not part of normal aging," she continues. "In fact, AD is so common as we get older that almost all of us are at risk for developing the condition ourselves -- or seeing someone we love get it."
The genetic component of that risk has been the subject of intensive research at the Bryan ADRC and Duke's Center for Human Genetics for more than a decade. Together, investigative teams from the centers identified APOE4, a major susceptibility gene that triples an individual's risk for developing Alzheimer's.
Since then, they have gone on to discover several other genes that increase the risk of developing the disease or determine the age of onset. Working now with investigators in the Institute of Genome Science and Policy (IGSP), they have begun expanded studies to discover other genes involved in Alzheimer's disease progression and their significance in the cascade of brain events that leads to the devastating symptoms of memory loss and eventual dementia.
P. Murali Doraiswamy, MD, head of Duke's division of biological psychiatry, has been working with Duke radiologist Jeffrey Petrella, MD, and Bryan ADRC neuropsychologist Jeffrey Browndyke, PhD, to study the brain function of people who, due to family histories or symptoms of mild cognitive disorder, are at risk for AD. Using a new type of magnetic resonance imaging called functional MRI, they may be able to distinguish between normal brain activity and that found in AD long before the structural changes associated with Alzheimer's are evident.
"Our goal is to be able to identify people with early Alzheimer's by a combination of imaging and genetic tests, begin early interventions to slow the progress of AD, and then continue to monitor them with imaging," Doraiswamy says.
Currently, four medications have been approved by the FDA to treat AD -- and more are on the horizon. "Some of the new compounds that we're excited about seem to help prevent the formation of the amyloid plaques within brain tissues that are associated with Alzheimer's," Doraiswamy says. "Others destroy the plaques' chemical bonds or inhibit the enzymes that cause them.
"The idea of prevention through delay has become a key concept," Doraiswamy adds. "If we manage to delay the onset of Alzheimer's long enough, it will serve in effect as a cure, since people would get through their lives without developing symptoms."
Amid promising progress and tantalizing advances, abundant mysteries about Alzheimer's remain. But the millions of people struggling with this heartbreaking disease can take some comfort in the fact that some of the nation's best minds are determined to solve them.
Several Alzheimer's studies at Duke seek to tease out the possible relationship between the disease and lifestyle factors such as diet, supplements, and other medications. Studies from the laboratory of Patrick Sullivan, PhD, in the Duke Aging Center, have shown that diets lower in fat seem to dramatically decrease the risk of developing Alzheimer's-type brain changes. Population-based studies also reinforce the importance of diet on cognitive health and brain aging.
Welsh-Bohmer leads a large team of investigators with the Cache County Memory Study, a unique long-term research project focused on the population of one fairly isolated Utah county. The study has clearly shown that not everyone who has the APOE4 gene gets Alzheimer's -- suggesting the importance of other factors in its development. It also seems to confirm the role of diet on cognitive decline in aging and supports earlier studies suggesting that vitamins C and E, anti-inflammatory compounds such as ibuprofen or naproxen (marketed as Aleve®), and aspirin may all help to lower the risk of AD.
"Recent studies show that what's good for the heart seems to also be good for the brain," says Doraiswamy. His prescription for a "brain-friendly" lifestyle includes the following tips:
"I swore with every fiber of my being that I would never put my husband in a nursing home. I took care of him at home for 12 years. My doctor finally said to me, 'You must put Jack in a nursing home or you'll die, and then we'll put him in a nursing home.' In my heart of hearts, I knew he was right. But now there are nights I can't sleep. I feel I have abandoned him."
This sad story -- that of the distraught wife of a man with Alzheimer's disease -- is all too common. And it's the kind of story Lisa Gwyther and her colleagues at the Bryan ADRC and the Duke Family Support Program hear every day. While medicine still seeks effective remedies for Alzheimer's, support programs can help families cope with the challenges of caring for a loved one who can no longer function and often bears almost no resemblance to the person they knew for decades before the illness struck.
Toward that end, Gwyther and her colleague Edna Ballard have created a family of educational manuals covering every aspect of Alzheimer's -- from the sexual to the spiritual, from holiday celebrations to financial considerations. With the help of Henry Edmonds, coordinator of the African American Community Outreach Program at the Bryan ADRC, they are working to increase general public awareness of Alzheimer's disease and create a range of support groups and services -- in the process, building a model program now emulated around the nation.

Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC), in partnership with UC Irvine, the Children and Families Commission of Orange County and the County of Orange Health Care Agency (Orange County Consortium), has been selected to conduct the National Children's Study, the largest and most comprehensive long-term study of environmental effects on child development and health. The Orange County Consortium was named by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as one of six initial national Vanguard Centers for the study. For the first five years of the 25-year study, the Orange County Consortium will receive $14.6 million from the NIH to help refine and field test the initial protocol for this ambitious study. "This is very exciting news for Orange County, putting us on the national research map. By combining the tremendous resources of the community and joining in this national effort, we will gain valuable information from which to develop disease prevention strategies, health and safety guidelines, and possibly new treatments and cures," says Dr. Maria Minon, vice president of medical affairs and chief medical officer at CHOC. In addition to the Orange County Consortium, other Vanguard Centers include: New York City (Queens); Duplin County, N.C.: Montgomery County, Pa.; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Waukesha County, Wis. Eventually 97 other study sites will join the Vanguard Centers, and each will implement the final protocol with 1,000 families participating in each of these locations. As currently planned, the National Children's Study will follow more than 100,000 children from before birth to age 21. Study researchers hope to better understand how children's genes and their environments interact to affect their health and development.

This is almost the same color palette I'm using in my daughter's room makeover...it's what she wanted from us for Christmas. Her Birthday is early March and we are going to incorporate the same colors for her party.

Clayton News Daily
By Daniel Silliman
firstname.lastname@example.com Since the first performance, a one-night-only event at Spivey Hall, saw a packed house, Clayton State University's theater group is bringing back "Supernatural Shakespeare." The original, modern play, is a medley of William Shakespeare's scenes involving monsters, ghouls, ghosts and witches, the creepy, spooky and supernatural material from the Bard's 38 plays. Originally, the Morrow university tied the production to a Halloween theme, performing the show on Oct. 13. "The problem," said Phillip Depoy, the university's theater director, "was that the hall was full, that night in Spivey Hall. A bunch of students and faculty wanted to get in, but couldn't. So that's a pretty good reason to remount." The premiere was packed with 400 people, said Lauren Graves, a school spokeswoman. "It was pretty impressive," she said. A random, anonymous survey of 100 viewers, showed that 100 percent of people liked the show, Depoy said, which is astounding. A normal production will garner about 80 percent, in the survey, with a great show getting about 90 percent of people saying they like it, and a flop falling as low as 40 percent. "People like scary stuff," Depoy said. The only complaint the theater department heard was that some audience members wanted a printed program, so they could match the scenes to the text. Depoy thinks the guessing game -- is this ghost Hamlet's father or MacBeth's Banquo? -- is a large part of the fun, for "us Shakespeare guys." Even for viewers who don't know their Shakespeare by heart, however, the transitions from scene to scene are pretty clear and their are some fairly obvious cues identifying each scene. "Like," Depoy said, "when someone's called Hamlet, that's probably from Hamlet." The first production was funded by grants, and featured three professional actors, giving the student amateurs the chance to work with, and learn, from paid professionals. For the upcoming shows, the students are taking on the professional parts, having graduated into the roles. Depoy said he's urging the young actors and actresses to reach for new heights, during the remount. "What you want to ask an actor to do," he said, "is make it new, every time. That's a challenge, a bit of a challenge, for the actors." He was pleased, he said, when the three girls playing the witches from the play, "MacBeth," figured out exciting new ways to recite the list of ingredients in their bubbling brew. "It was very graphic," Depoy said, "and really disgusting." The upcoming, encore performances will be held at the University at 8 p.m., on Nov. 29 and 30. The play, which is under an hour long, will be performed in the Clayton State Theater, room 132 of the Arts & Sciences Building. Admission is $5.More like this story

Sorry guys, but not all yoga instructors are created equal. I have taken my share of yoga classes with inept instructors where the sequencing of postures was nonsensical and the instructor's lack of articulation cut my ears like nails on a chalkboard. Like a good yogi, I resist the urge to judge and do what I know is right for my body. A beginner might not have the good judgment to back off or do what is best for their body for fear of not being able "hang" with the rest of the crowd. Having a ballet background makes it easy for me to decipher whether or not an instructor actually understands movement or if the instructor approaches teaching yoga in a Simon says manner. Yoga is a powerful tool and without a skilled instructor the potential for serious injury is much greater. Nowadays everywhere I go someone tells me about beginning a teacher-training course with the intent of going out into the world to teach yoga. Don't get me wrong, more power to you friend; however, not everyone has it in them to be a good yoga instructor. Exposing this darker side of the yoga world--call it yoga politics-- seems like the karmic kiss of death but it is necessary. Who you practice with is the most important aspect of your yoga practice, especially if you are a beginner. Yoga instructors have more power than you might think since he or she can make or break a beginner's yogic experience for life. Tuesday, 23 August 2011
Article first published as Yoga: The Champagne of Life on Technorati. Over the last few years, I gained an indescribable sixth sense through my yoga practice. As a ballerina, heightened physical awareness is a given. However, these days my awareness is sharper than the sharpest tool in the shed encompassing my emotional and energetic fields of awareness. The effects of a regular yoga practice penetrate deep from the outside in since we have direct access to what we see, touch, feel, hear and taste. Yogis begin by contorting their bodies into silly shapes and poses and holding them for what can often seem like an eternity. Many people turn to yoga strictly as a form of exercise as I first did. When physical limitations are met, yogis learn to stay focused, resist aversion to physical and/or psychological discomfort that might arise and as a result a shift in perception occurs. This feeling can be exhilarating and liberating and is considered by all yogis to be where the true yogic journey begins. The yoga poses, called asanas in Sandskrit, are merely metaphors for life. Asanas are situational and subject to change much like daily life. They generate the same aversions or attachments experienced in daily life. We identify and enjoy certain asanas more than others, just like we enjoy certain people, relationships and situations more than others. Yoga is a powerful tool because it brings about a revelation in the practitioner. There comes a point where suddenly one becomes fully aware of hard-wired habits and automated thought processes, which is scary… No one wants to be confronted with one's self. Sunday, 17 July 2011
FEkwVMGLRUo Too many people think they can't do yoga...and the reason they think this lies in their hips. Most people are quite tight in the hips because of our sedentary culture. We sit in traffic, we sit in front of our computers at work and then we come home and sit in front of our computers again as we "socialize" with our virtual friends. Excessive sitting, especially with poor posture, leads to constant flexion of the hip joint causing tightness and stiffness. True, your hips might be tight with respect to one range of motion, but they might be very loose in another. In other words, your hip flexors could be very tight, yet you might naturally possess more external rotation in your hips than the person next to you making certain poses like pigeon pose more accessible and poses like crescent pose less accessible. This is where the beauty of personal exploration chimes in. If you are honest about your physical limitations and practice consistently and without judgement, you'll notice a refined sense of awareness when it comes to your body. You will begin understanding which poses work for your joints, which ones don't and most importantly why. Check out this video. I provide three hip openers for you to try. Each one stretches the hip joint differently. So try all of them on and see which one fits your body best. Saturday, 09 July 2011
As yogis we have a heightened sense of spatial awareness. But even if you don't practice yoga, you are still able to move your body through space. The human musculoskeletal system is so sophisticated that it allows you to move like a real live three-dimensional structure through space, unlike a paper doll. There are three planes in which all movement occurs, including the coronal (frontal), sagittal and transverse planes. Corornal Plane: Motion viewed in this plane appears as side-to-side movements. Adduction and abduction of your limbs occur in this plane. For example, making snow angels in the winter illustrates movement in the coronal plane because the arms and legs move laterally. Another example is steering the wheel of a car. When you steer, do you place your hands at ten o'clock and at two o'clock? Why not?! It's a simple concept, yet for some reason so many L.A. drivers seem to have missed this lesson in drivers ed. Sagittal Plane: Motion viewed in this plane is best viewed from the profile and is construed as forward and/or backward motion. Walking occurs in the sagittal plane, so does kicking a soccer ball with your foot because it involves the thigh moving forward and towards the torso. Conversely, extending the leg behind you brings the thighbone away from the torso as when a ballet dancer does an arabesque. Transverse Plane: In the transverse plane motion is construed as rotational. Hula hooping is an activity that involves the torso twisting around its own axis in order to balance the hula-hoop around the hips. Thursday, 30 June 2011
It's no wonder that George Balanchine, the father of ballet in America as we know it, was such a stickler for tendus. Balanchine believed that if a dancer could execute a perfect tendu, then no step or combination of steps is unattainable. A battement tendu is a French word meaning to "stretch" or to "extend" and is a fundamental step in the classical ballet vocabulary where the foot is fully stretched so as to continue the line of the extended leg. Every time the foot leaves the ground, it has to be pointed!!! This is the 1st commandment of classical ballet! Otherwise, let's just face it...it's bad ballet. Tendus are the basis of all jumps, turns and all the seemingly effortless footwork seen in ballet. It can take years to perfect the tendu; in fact if you ask most highly trained professional dancers if they consider their tendus to be perfect they will undoubtedly reply: "Far from!" Tendus are to ballet as tadasana is to yoga. The most fundamental asana in yoga is tadasana a.k.a. Mountain Pose. As the name suggests, the energy of this asana is strong and unbreakable like a mountain. In tadasana the feet are either together or slightly apart, the arms down with the palms at the sides of the body and the chest is lifted. It is important to keep the gaze soft by directing it at the tip of the nose to maintain the undisturbed energy generated by this asana. Tadasana is the blueprint for all postures in yoga because in tadasana the body is at its optimal alignment with the neck positioned over the shoulders, the shoulders stacked over the hips, the hips aligned over the knees and the knees positioned over the ankles. There's even weight distributed between the mounds of the big and little toes and the inner and outer heels. In tadasana the spine is maximally extended and not torqued. When the spine is elongated it allows for prana to flow through the body uninterrupted. When all the anatomical puzzle pieces fit together like this moving freely from one position to the next becomes second nature. The need to push, strain or overexert disappears and the risk for injury greatly diminishes. Additionally, when we successfully find this sense of ease in our yoga practice we can begin to pay less attention to the physicality of our movements and tap into their energetic quality. When this happens, many find it mentally soothing and therefore quite liberating. Every sport, activity or art has its building blocks; but in my experience the building blocks of yoga often compliment those of ballet and in doing so provide me, "the ballerina," a more comprehensive understanding of my body and a greater sense of physical awareness and mental clarity.

If you practice vinyasa yoga or any other physically demanding activity it's crucial to find a good bodyworker. At home, I try to do as much as I can on my own to roll out the kinks and muscle adhesions using a foam roller and other toys, but there's no comparison for getting some great bodywork. I found an amazing bodyworker at Yoga Tree in San Francisco and his name is V. Yes, V. Just V. It was quite possibly the best massage I've ever had in that not only was the pressure deep enough but V also incorporated techniques like stretching and working on the back of my body while I was lying face up! I've never experienced bodywork in this way before and it was really incredible because the weight of my own body aided V in getting deep into the bound up muscle tissue in and around my low back, gluteus maximus and gluteus minimus. On top of V's technical mastery he radiated a healing and spiritual vibe that was very comforting. Being able to "hold space" in an intimate practice like bodywork or yoga is imperative because people can and do feel vulnerable underneath that little cloth separating all of them from the bodyworker and outside world. I was also impressed with how thorough V was in his work. V left no muscle unturned so to speak and because he was so thorough time seemed to slow down, which is great when you're getting bodywork! I thought the massage was almost done but in actuality we had about another 10-15 minutes to go. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of V informing me that there was only 10 minutes left so if there's anything specific I want worked we still had enough time. Overall, a fantastic experience Tuesday, 22 March 2011

Mickelson joins 5 others in Hall of Fame induction
Posted: 6:23 PM May 7, 2012
Reporter: Associated Press
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. (AP) - Phil Mickelson has been inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame for 42 wins and four majors in a career that is still going.
Mickelson was inducted along with two-time major champion Sandy Lyle of Scotland, writer Dan Jenkins, British player and broadcaster Peter Alliss and LPGA player Hollis Stacy. The induction ceremony Monday night at the World Golf Village brought the Hall of Fame membership to 141.
Jenkins and Allis delivered the humor. Mickelson talked about his career through a timeline of family and friends who helped him along way. In a rare moment, PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem spoke before Mickelson was introduced to mention his achievements off the course in projecting such a strong image.

A recent British Medical Journal article asked, "Where is the evidence that animal research benefits humans?" The authors examined systematic reviews of six areas of animal research and presented evidence that it had not informed human clinical research. Animal studies were also found wanting in their methods, with omissions in randomization of samples and failure to prevent observer bias.

Recipe by MooShell
"Pan-fried zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot cakes, with golden crispy edges and tender insides. These make great dippers for toddlers to adults. You would never know that these nutritious fritters amount to eating your vegetables."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 cups shredded zucchini
1 cup shredded yellow squash
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup corn muffin mix
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or more as needed
Very good and healthy! I just used 1/2 cup of corn meal, and added a few dashes of onion powder and 2 Tb of parmesan cheese. Make sure to drain on paper towels before cooking.
Since we like anything Mexican, I used Mexican cornbread mix. Like some of the other reviews I think it would be very bland without it. Mine didn't get very crispy, maybe I didn't get enough water out.
13 Ratings
These were tasty, but next time I'll add more veggies and some spice.... I wanted a little kick to these
Pretty good. I plan on playing with the spices a bit next time. I drained the zucchini by placing it in a colander first and pushing my metal mixing bowl down onto it. I then placed the mixture in a kitchen towel and folded it over, pushed a glass pie plate on top which allowed me to see how much water was being pushed out based on how wet the towel got. I am glad I did the colander first because I could have easily gone through a couple towels.
This was ok, but like the other reviews I found it to be a bit bland....it needed something. After trying a few random things, I topped one of them with Parmesan cheese and that was the ticket! Next time I'll add the cheese to the filling and that should do it!
This was ok - I didn't have yellow squash so used all zucchini instead. I don't think I enjoyed the cornbread mix in this recipe. I did like the carrots in the recipe. I also think it needs onion and other seasonings.
This was a nice light fritter. The corn meal was a different change and a great way to try something new with all my garden zucchini. I took advice and added 2 tbsp of spicey rub in the mix. Could have used perhaps more. My youngest put hot sauce on them and enjoyed. Easy to do.
I loved these! They were very tasty. I used Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix. I also took the advice of some of the other reviewers and added some onion powder to make them a little less bland. My family thought they were delicious.

It's a colorful event that attracts participants spaning 80 years of age.

Jets coach Rex Ryan had an interesting way of describing Bills defensive end Mario Williams this week.
"God touched this guy," the Jets' coach said. "Like, gave him unbelievable gifts. He's got the height, the size, the length, the arms, the speed. That's what kind of jumps out. And he plays hard, he's smart."
Coming off a 4.5-sack performance against Carolina in Week Two – a game in which he took an eraser to the names of Bruce Smith and Cornelius Bennett in the Bills' record book – Williams was named the AFC Defensive Player of the Week.
His matchup with Jets right tackle Austin Howard will be one of the more interesting ones to watch Sunday.
Howard, of course, had all of one start heading into last year's season opener against the Bills – and did a shockingly good job against Williams, who after the game complained that Howard was committing hands to the face penalties that were going uncalled by the replacement officials.
Williams said this week he's not going to address Howard's approach with officials before the game.
"No, just play ball," he said. "That's the mindset. Just go out there and mix it up, get after it."
Jets linebacker Antwan Barnes told Newsday this week there is no way Williams could match his output from the Carolina game on Sunday.
"Not at all," Barnes said. "Not on my O-line. It's the Panthers were talking about."
Howard, however, was careful not to provide the Bills' star with any bulletin-board material.
"He's one of those dual-type defensive ends who has it all," the Jets' tackle said. "He has speed and can get your edge pretty good with his speed and athleticism, and at the same time, he's really strong, so he can get you really good with a power move."
Bills coach Doug Marrone said Williams, a two-time Pro Bowler, is more than just a pass rusher.
"I think he's a very good football player all around. I tend not to try to label him as an elite pass rusher," the coach said. "I think he's an excellent pass rusher. I think he plays very well against the run and is really a complete player for us who can do a lot of things."

The Norwich, U.K., sextet Bearsuit veers from shambolic orch-pop to spasmodic thrash. Imagine Belle and Sebastian and The Boredoms crammed together in a barrel and shoved down a steep hill, or a mad scientist's crossbreed of Heavenly and Huggy Bear. Hurling themselves from one end of the musical spectrum to the other, often within the space of a single song, they spiral vertiginously through space, which may explain their lyrical fondness for science fiction. Oh:io, their second album, ups the coherence quotient ever so slightly, but not enough so as to lessen the sense of childlike chaos. Bearsuit's sandbox is full of sharp objects, but it's still a dangerously fun place to play.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A Republican state senator is trying to pull Indiana out of the Common Core State Standards national education initiative, and his bill goes before a legislative committee this week.
Indiana's State Board of Education in 2010 approved joining the set of uniform math and reading benchmarks that was developed by a national group of state school officials and has been adopted by 45 states. The standards have since been endorsed by the Obama administration and attacked by critics as basically nationalizing public schools.
Republican Sen. Scott Schneider of Indianapolis says he wants to withdraw Indiana from the Common Core because he believes previous state benchmarks were better. A Senate education committee hearing on Schneider's bill is set for Wednesday.
Common Core supporters argue it fixes shortcomings in Indiana's previous benchmarks.

FRESNO — The Convicted Distracted Driver is sitting in a study carrel in the Cal State Fresno library, which, come to think of it, looks a little like a prison visiting room.
"I don't relish that title," said Steven Spriggs. "But that's what I am."
His crime: looking at his iPhone's map application while driving.
Spriggs, 58, is director of planned giving for the college. He is gentle and soft-spoken. Or maybe that's just because we are in the library.
Still, in his soft-blue dress shirt and gray tie, he looks more like an insurance salesman than a firebrand who sparked what court documents call a "media frenzy." But that's exactly what happened after Spriggs fought his conviction and lost.
"I believe in distracted driving laws with all my heart," said Spriggs, whose 22-year-old son was badly injured twice by distracted drivers in 2010. "But police officers should have real probable cause to pull you over."
On the evening he was ticketed, Jan. 5, 2012, Spriggs maintains he was driving safely. He was on his way home on California 41 in the middle of Fresno. Road construction forced the rush hour traffic to a stop. (Yes, big-city cynics, Fresno has a rush hour.)
Maybe there's a way around this, thought Spriggs. It was dark. He picked up his phone and opened the map app. The glowing screen gave him away.
A California Highway Patrol motorcycle officer gestured at him to pull over. The officer's foot was on the ground because traffic was stopped.
"Had I swerved or driven erratically, I would have gladly rolled over and paid the ticket because I screwed up," Spriggs said. "I don't drive dangerously, but I have been known to speed." As a former competitive downhill skier, he said, "I seem to be in a hurry more than I'd like to be."
At his traffic court trial, exactly a year ago, he opened a big map. "I could have done this," he said. "Or," he said picking up his phone, "I could have done this." The commissioner was unmoved: "You could have also pulled over."
Spriggs lost, and filed an appeal. Last month, he learned he lost that too.
"The statute prohibits driving 'while using a wireless telephone' except when the phone is 'specifically designed and configured to allow hands-free listening and talking, and is used in that manner while driving,'" wrote Judge Kent Hamlin of Fresno County Superior Court's Appellate Division. "It is undisputed that appellant used his wireless telephone while holding it in his hand as he drove his vehicle."
That's when the frenzy began. Can you read an email? Look at your clock? Hold the phone to use the voice texting function?
It depends, said CHP spokeswoman Fran Clader. "If someone says, 'I was taking the phone out of my pocket and putting it on the seat,' an officer might say, 'OK, drive along.' If they were entering something in the GPS system, that is communication, and that could be interpreted as breaking the law."
Curiously, both she and Spriggs noted: It is legal to enter a phone number while driving. Judge Hamlin wrote that this "illogical and arbitrary" quirk should be addressed by the Legislature.
In the meantime, distracted driving, which caused 3,331 deaths nationwide in 2011, generates big money. In 2012, the state Department of Motor Vehicles reported nearly 450,000 handheld cellphone and texting convictions. A year ago April, which is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, more than 57,000 tickets were issued. At $159 a pop, and $279 for subsequent tickets, that's a minimum of $71.5 million in annual revenue for the state.
The state has an interest in keeping the revenue spout on, Spriggs said. "All the people giving tickets have a great incentive to keep doing it, but the law needs to be enforceable and have common sense attached to it."
Clader said the law is for safety: "Distracted driving is killing people."
Gesturing to his phone, Spriggs said, "If you are holding a hamburger, you are fine. If you are holding this little box, you are not."

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- When we met Carol Marcovsky she was coming out of council chambers in tears. But those tears weren't sad, they were celebratory.
"I am so proud to live in Arlington because the people are what's running the neighborhood now and we know what's good for our neighborhood," Marcovsky said.
Marcovsky, along with rows and rows of Arlington residents, filled the seats in City Hall on Tuesday in protest of a liquor store moving into 7720 Merrill Road, where the Arthur Murray Dance Studio now sits vacant.
"The whole neighborhood pulled together on this issue," said Marcovsky. "Nobody wanted this to be put on that spot. It was just not a good location."
The Arlington uproar began when Shiv Investments of Jacksonville filed an application for a zoning exception to allow the sale of all alcoholic beverages there for off-premises consumption.
Neighbors immediately feared for the worst.
"It will have an impact and it does have an impact and it's not a good one in this case," said City Councilman Clay Yarborough.
But others on council saw it as an economic opportunity, a job boost for the area.
"The guy has got a pretty good business plan if you ask me. If if he's going through this, he knows the store is going to work," said City Councilman Richard Clark.
But now it won't have a chance.
In a vote of 11-6, City Council appealed the application.
It caused an immediate celebration to break out in the hall.
"It's a great day. It's a turning point for Arlington," said Arlington resident Michael Anania.
Many of those in attendance said they want to see a more family-friendly business move into that location now.
The building's future at this point remains unknown.

The sergeants had previously voted to decertify the union last July by a tally of 48 to 25. But they were ordered to revote in January by the Florida Public Employees Relations Commission.
The commission ruled that Sheriff Mike Scott illegally influenced the first vote by offering $2,400 bonuses to nonunion members shortly before votes were cast.
