Goran Dragic threw out the first pitch at the Dbacks game last night. Suns.com TV made a video feature about it...except their video description has Dragic as a Suns Forward. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfCVQH-A_60

I think Kerr is going to make every effort to get him over here, despite the article's pessimistic title. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
This links to a Suns.com article about Dragic. There's also a video of his workout with the Suns about halfway down the page. Nothing out of the ordinary, but watch the spin move just after the 2 minute mark. Kid is quick. Me likey athletic point guard.

Big thanks to Prototypic for the chance to try this one. First time. Bottle is "best by" 6/1/2011, so just a little past the date. It didn't seem to hurt this beer at all.
A. Ahh, now this is more like it! After suffering through a raft of lightly caramel colored American Doppelbocks, it's refreshing to see a darker version of the style. This is pecan colored and clear, with a fine, dense tan head that never dies and actually leaves some lace behind. Excellent.
S. Very nice, full, pulls no punches and hits everything you want in a Doppelbock. Sweet, rich, layered malt, complex, dark and bready, toasty-booze, prune, hearty caramel, cool, no hops, lots to like... Very German, I would not be able to tell this was brewed in the US if you told me otherwise.
T. A few sips confirm: The Doppelrock is simply one of the best traditional Doppelbocks I've had from America, shames many German examples. This is rich and complex, without being sticky or sickly sweet, and boasts an astonishing balance of complementary flavors. Prune, singed sugar, dark hearty bread with a little carbon-toast, a dry, rye-bread spiciness (from the yeast I suspect), mature. Delicious.
M / D. Well rounded carbonation keeps this sweet grain-water from being too heavy on the palate, the whole endeavor is quite easy and smooth, with just a tiny amount of alcohol warmth to keep things going. Finish is long and semi-sweet and very toasted dark bread.
The Doppelrock is just flat out fantastic, a drinkable delight that holds its own with the best German examples of the style. Highly recommended. I'm going to look for this next time I'm up North.

On tap at the Mellow in Greensboro.Poured a deep garnet color with a fluffy beige colored head that held well atop.Aromas were a little light with brown sugar and caramel sweetness mainly standing out.Bready with that brown sugar sweetness on the palate,the alcohol is really hidden, you would have no idea the ABV was so high.Not overly complex,quite simple reallly,but it tastes good.

It is a very nice looking beer that is very clear dark brown with ruby highlights. There is a long lasting, creamy light tan head.
It has an intensely melaniodin aroma like the thick brown crust of an artisan bread. There is moderate aromas of toast and carmel in there. No noticeable hops aroma and just a hint of plum and chocolate that rounds out the nose.
The flavor is like chewing on a thick, dark crust of a loaf of bread with the melaniodin flavor propionate and toasted flavors following right behind it. There is a moderat hop bitterness and no hops flavor with a slight hint of chocolate and plum. The alcohol give a slight warming. A clean lager profile from the yeast without any diacetyl, phenols and only the slight plum ester.
It's very smooth with a medium-full body with a moderately low carbonation. No astringency.
This is a big, rich lager with some nice dark toasty and bready characteristics.

Best by 6/15/11; consumed 5/10/11
Pours a beautiful reddish amber with one finger of light brown head and slow rising carbonation.
Smell has some of the hallmark scents of the style: dark bready notes, dried fruits (fig and raisin). Smell starts off well, but unfortunately there is an off-putting aroma that I can't quite place, maybe a combination of alcohol and slight funk?
Taste is sweet caramel malts up front, followed by dark bready notes, raisins and figs. Some apparent alcohol on this finish.
Has a nice medium mouthfeel. Feels full without being heavy.
While there are a few off notes, I thought this was a pretty sold doppelbock. However, too sweet to be outstanding.

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a mug. The label has a nice description of the beer and lists the abv. (7.8%) and has a freshness date of "06/01/11".
Appearance: The body is very dark with deep reddish highlights and is capped by a tall light tan head. The head is slow fading and it slowly settles to a light ring of slick lace at the edge of the glass. Some lacing is left on the glass at the top.
Smell: Its aroma has sweet caramel and dark fruit notes with herbal/botanical hop notes. I also get a light boozy character and a slight hint of mineral.
Taste/Palate: There is a nice solid bready and doughy malty sweetness with notes of caramel and slight hints of fruit like dates, fig and plum. This is surrounded by a big warm booziness and backed up by earthy and herbal hops bitterness. I also pick up that slight mineral edge as well. The palate is smooth, almost creamy with a firm medium to full body and medium carbonation.
Notes: Overall I feel it's a well made and very tasty Doppelbock. Its only set back is the heavy alcoholic warmth and this will probably mellow just right with a little age.

12 oz. bottle poured into a NB snifter.
A - Pours a vibrant copper reddish brown. Two-finger head of rich, tan, thick foam slowly dissipates, leaving a surface of fine lace and pockets of larger bubbles. Held to a full-spectrum light, the beer is dark ruby red and clear, with a thin trail of carbonation rising thru the center.
S - Rich toasted, some roasted malts, with caramels and pulses of 50% milk chocolate. A hint of toffee after it warms. Also suggests very moist freshly baked chocolate-banana bread. Only complaint is the nose is rather subdued, even after warming - have to coax it out of the snifter.
T - A bit darker than the nose, but matching it. Nicely toasted/roasted malts and darker chocolates come to the forefront, but bitterness in the profile is pretty subdued - just the right amount to be able to enjoy the malts/sugars over a prolonged time without drowning in them. Noble hops deliver just enough undefined earthiness to compliment and balance the sugars while at the same time remain in their supporting role.
M - Somewhat fizzy at first, but gives way to a surface creaminess on the tongue. Moderate carbonation. Good body and well-integrated. Finish fades quickly to soft echos of sugars on the tongue. Not at all as thick as the chocolate tastes might suggest it will be, but definitely no thinness, either - just right.
O - Skip the chocolate dessert tray and make this your last course of the night. This doppelbock features rich chocolate malts with just the right balance of hops to make them delicious without being heavy or filling. Could easily enjoy several of these over post-dinner conversation without feeling like I've cleaned out a Godiva factory. Another winner from Great Lakes. BTW - while this review is based on tasting from a bottle, I remember the servings I've had both this year and last on tap as being even better. It's one of those beers where the delivery is even better than the anticipation.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into dimpled mug. Enjoy by date of June 12, 2011.
Appearance: Fairly dark but brilliant red that really glows in the light. Just a thin white cap on top.
Smell: Caramel, cherry, light roasted notes, and metallic & spicy noble hops. A little mild - seems more like a Marzen, Vienna or standard Bock.
Taste: Fairly sweet caramel, brown sugar and cherry, with some very light chocolate and toasted notes. Overall, a fairly complex malt profile. Some spicy, bitter noble hops at the finish, but they actually seem a little off-putting, as if the malts and hops don't quite gel.
Feel: Moderate carbonation, medium body that is somewhat smooth, dry finish.
Overall: A solid Doppelbock that could have used a tad more balance. As it is, it is certainly enjoyable and quite drinkable, but a little too sweet as the hops don't quite measure up.

2.68/5 rDev -30.4%
A-Dark ruby red yet clear, a tight yet short beige head without staying power.
S-Candied fruits dominate, cooked sugary malt. Aromas of molasses and raisins.
T-Intense carmelized fruits that builds into a burny and rotten fruit. Some weaks hint of smoked wood.
M-Moderate to heavy carbonation and medium bodied. Mouthfeel/body is nice upfront but lingers too long into a bitter finish.
O-Reminds me a bit of a doppelbock/dubbel hybrid but the combination doesn't work. I like the upfront taste but it doesn't end well.

12oz bottle outta the 4 pack. Pours a ruddy bronze, establishing a smallish white head that leaves behind some slight, sticky lacing. The aroma is warm and malty, but a little weak. The taste brings a well balanced blend of malt and hops with an enjoyably sticky finish. A credit to the style.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a Sam Adams pint glass.
Appearance: A darker shade of amber red with a decent sized tan head that has good retention. Nice lacing.
Smell: Strong aroma of caramel and bready, toasty malts. Hints of coffee and maybe some dark fruit sweetness?
Taste: Very malt forward with lots of caramel and toasty bread. Dark fruits blend with the malt to create a nice sweetness that is not overbearing. A slight hint of earthy hops in the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium body and carbonation. Very smooth and somewhat chewy.
Overall: A pretty good version of a doppelbock from Great Lakes.

Pours out a sturdy brown color, average head, didn't leave much in the way of lace. Half a point bump for the awesome label. Aroma was mildly sweet, even a little surprise of chocolate, but otherwise pretty uneventful.
More chocolate in the taste, sturdy, approached an almost porter like territory, more enjoyable than the average doppelbock to me, one of my least enjoyable styles of beer. Cocoa for realz. Good smooth texture in the mouthfeel. A non stout beer that can stand on its laurels about letting the malt complexity lead the way. Good and creamy, velvet stuff. Avoids the dark fruit taste that can sometimes be a little much in the style.
I'd have another. Thanks to . . . shit, I don't remember who threw this in as an extra, but thanks!

4.03/5 rDev +4.7%
Pours a dark amber ruby brownish red body with a light speckled khaki head. Aroma has figs/rasisins, with a touch of green apple. Big caramel malts with a nicey artisinal bread layer. Flavor is sweet upfront with the malt profile flexing it's girth, a great example of another well brewed lager from Great Lakes. A bit of herbal hops to balance things out but the booze is really well hidden. More caramel dark fruits like raisins/plums/ and some green apple tartness make up the backbone of the flavor profile. Medium bodied mouthfeel even keeled carbonation with a touch of sticky residual sugars but not cloyingly so. Overall impression is this beer will be popular across the board by both beer geeks and newbies to the craft beer realm very solid welcomed addition to Great Lakes lineup of beers.

Lot# 7892GE
Purchased through West Lakeview Liquors, Chicago IL
Price - $12.49/4-pack
Brewed according to the (Reinheitsgebot) Bavarian purity law of 1516. Which means this beer is only brewed with barley, hops, yeast and water.
Lite mahogany in color with amazing transparency from start to finish, This beer is clean. Starts out with a quarter inch creamy white head that's short lived. Nothing clinging here, legs try to form but can't quite stick.
Aroma of caramel, ginger, brown sugar and hops. A little lite in the nose overall and lacking in sweetness.
A hint of caramel and raisins are noticeable in the flavor but the hops just overpower the sweetness. This example lacks the full luster of a dopplebock (dark fruit, toffee and a touch of smoke).
The mouthfeel is pleasent with a good amount of carbonation. Lite to medium body, finishes dry and a little warm.
Overall a solid beer and quite drinkable considering the 7.8 alc/vol. Appearance shines here in my book.

This beer is reddish-brown in color, a bit lighter than I might expect from a typical doppelbock, and pretty clear. A nice, dense light brown head is just over a finger high, maintaining its form well and leaving patches of lacing behind.
This one is malt-forward on the nose, but with a healthy dose of hops. Interestingly, more caramel is evident than the molasses and licorice I get from most, though they are present. A bit of toffee with breads and something like plum or, perhaps more accurately, tart cherry (think Bing) is in the background as well. Alcohol is also present.
The taste follows suit, but this one really reminds me more of a strong bock than a doppelbock. Breads and caramel from malts are complemented by a sturdy hops adding some floral bitterness for balance. Just a touch of dark fruits sweetness pulls through with a smoked toffee flavor peeking through also. Alcohol is fairly hot and ever present.
The mouthfeel is also perhaps more appropriate for a bock, and less robust than the big boys of the style. The body is medium. Carbonation is moderate and lends to some crispness that leads well into smoothness. The mouthfeel is good, but it should be richer, fuller and more robust with a bigger body to really compete with the best of the style.
Treating overall as drinkability, the ABV really cuts back on how much one can drink.

Bottle poured into glass
Appearance: Dirty amber-brown brew with minimal lacing.
Smell: Wheat, malts, light chocolate scent and some spices as well.
Taste: Chocolate malt upfront, peanuts, wheat malts, caramel.
A drinkable brew, but needs some minor changes: head retention should be better; needs a little more body; The chocolate flavor is a nice addition to the style, but needs to be toned down a bit.

On draft @Old Chicago in southern suburban Detroit.
This beer appears a clear dark reddish amber hue, with one finger of creamy beige head, which leaves some sparse streaky lace after a brief spell. It smells of bready caramel, a bit of toffee, leafy hops, and mild booze. The taste is toffee/caramel, nougat, a bit of treacle, earthy hops, and an underpinning alcohol edge. The carbonation is moderate, the body medium-heavy in weight, and quite smooth, though hop-pecked at times. It finishes with a drying edge, though the toffee and booze sweetness is never far away.
An agreeably decent doppelbock - well offset by a counterbalancing dryness, and just enough warming to remind one of the imminent summer's end.

Thanks to Chris for bringing this beer all the way to DE for me.
A: Pours a dark mahogany/brown color with a one finger tan head that dissolves to a thin layer on top. Some thin rings of lace form.
S: Fruit aromas hit right away, some ripe strawberries and some darker fruits like fig and plum. Some caramel and toffee as well.
T: Again some fruit, but a bit more subdued than the aroma. The flavor profile is much maltier in comparison. Caramel and toffee, some brown sugar, and maybe even a bit of maple. There is some bready malt near the backend.
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Drinks pretty smooth. No lingered taste.
O: Pretty good beer, full flavored, drinkable for abv and style.

Pregnancy Treatment
Normal pregnancy is not an illness and needs no treatment other than standard prenatal care. After the initial visit, during the first six months of pregnancy, you should see your doctor about once per month. Visits should be scheduled every two weeks during the seventh and eight month and weekly during the ninth month. Fetal monitoring with a machine, an ultrasound physical assessment, or a stay in the hospital for testing or medication may also be part of the treatment.
Flu shots are recommended for women who are pregnant.

Browns rookie report: Week Four
Here's a look at how Browns rookies fared in the Week Four loss to Tennessee.
Injuries to Steinbach, Jackson put focus on Cleveland's depth
With the prospect of injured Browns OLG Eric Steinbach and RB Brandon Jackson missing significant time, Cleveland's depth will be tested.
Pinkston feels grateful to be alive following a health scare that ended his season. The Cleveland Browns guard was hospitalized in October following a game against Cincinnati with blood clots in his lungs. The second-year player doctors told him if he had taken a hit in the game that "I could've probably died then so I'm all happy about it that I'm still here."||||||| Pinkston, speaking with reporters on Friday for the first time since getting sick, said he has been working out and plans to play next season. He said he feels "normal" and is looking forward to resuming his career. Pinkston said he thought he only had bronchitis in the week leading up to being hospitalized. He continues to take blood thinners. The ordeal has changed Pinkston's view on life, he said.
Pinkston has been released from the hospital after being treated for blood clots in his lungs.||||||| Pinkston, who started Cleveland's first six games at left guard, was admitted to the Cleveland Clinic last week with the life-threatening condition. The 25-year-old was placed on injured reserve earlier this week, ending his second NFL season. A Browns spokesman confirmed Pinkston was released Wednesday.
Pinkston remains hospitalized with blood clots in his lungs, a life-threatening condition he's grateful was detected early. After the Browns revealed Pinkston's condition after practice on Friday, he confirmed his illness on Twitter while being treated at the Cleveland Clinic.||||||| Pinkston will not play Sunday against Indianapolis and the Browns do not know when the second-year guard will be released from the hospital or cleared to return. Pinkston started all 16 games in 2011 as a rookie. He played tackle in college, but was switched to guard last season after the Browns lost Eric Steinbach to a season-ending back injury.

Adele Overflows With Soul, Gives The Crowd "Chills" Live On Letterman
A fortunate few fans, lucky enough to score a small number of tickets inside the Ed Sullivan Theater, were waiting on pins and needles, while thousands more sat in front of their computers with baited breath at home. Everyone was taught with excitement, waiting for one woman: [lastfm]Adele[/lastfm].
From the moment she walked through the crowd, shaking hands and pounding fists, Adele was a picture of confidence. Then she took the famous stage and told us she was afraid she was going to fall over in her heels. Adele's banter was as honest and true as her songs. From the get go, it was clear this would be a night no one would soon forget.
She had just traveled thousands of miles across the Atlantic Ocean, but she made the legendary stage that had hosted the Beatles (and now hosts David Letterman) look like her home, opening with "Hometown Glory" off her debut album.
Before launching into her new track "Don't You Remember," Adele had to remind herself, out loud, not to swear. However, as soon as she belted out those first notes, it was the crowd that wanted to swear, in amazement of her unrivaled passion complemented by her superlative vocal control.
Adele followed "Don't You Remember" with another new one off 21, "Turning Tables," which pulled at just as many heart strings, as Adele took a seat and poured her heart out, accompanied by only the piano.
The crowd loved the new tunes, but Adele knew how to keep the mix fresh, throwing in the classic "Chasing Pavement" before shocking the crowd her haunting rendition of the [lastfm]Cure[/lastfm]'s "Love Song" and [lastfm]Bob Dylan[/lastfm]'s "Make You Feel My Love" which she reworked for her album 19.
Adele came back to her own material, by announcing "Someone Like You" just became her first number one song in the UK, and then she proceeded to absolutely kill it with a fierce outpouring of heart and soul.
The soulstress closed the night with the raucous "Rolling in the Deep," which had the crowd clapping and dancing in their seats.
But the excitement wasn't just contained to the intimate, sold out theater in New York. Fans from around the world watched at home on their computers and on the go on their phones. Adele's fans couldn't just sit there quietly– they had to let the rest of the world know what was going on, posting their love on Facebook and Twitter. Here are a few of our favorite Tweets:

The Cedar Falls School Board let their superintendent resign in a dramatic turn of events on Wednesday night.
In a unanimous decision, the board voted to let Mike Wells resign, after first making a motion to terminate his contract and being persuaded against it by Wells and a roomful of supporters.
Wells will finish out his contract for this school year, according to the board.
Their decision comes two days after Mike Wells, in his first year heading up the Cedar Falls Community School District, sent a resignation email to district officials and then rescinding it at the board's Monday night meeting.
Cedar Falls Patch claimed to have received a copy of Wells' resignation email. It can be found here.
Wells spoke to board members Wednesday night after the board made a motion to terminate Wells' contract and the motion was seconded.
His speech received applause from the packed audience in attendance at the meeting, some of whom held pro-Wells posters and gave him a standing ovation.
A few board members also praised Wells after his speech, while others spoke against him.
Wells then requested the school board amend their motion to let him resign instead of being fired.
The board took a brief recess to discuss the matter with the school district attorney and then voted to take back the motion so Wells could resign.
KWWL's Tim Getting contributed to this story.

In the United States in 1820, there were 1,528,452
Slaves. Their number is doubled in less than twenty years.
We have now about 2,000,000. In 1840, they will amount
to 3,000,000; in 1860 to 6,000,000; and in 1880 to 12,
They are fast concentrating at the extreme South.—In
1800, the number of slaves in Maryland was 107,707 and
in 1820, 107,398. In Georgia in 1800 there were 59,699,
and in 1820, 149,656. In Mississippi in 1800 there were
3,489, and in 1820, 32,841 ; Georgia almost three times as
many, and Mississippi nine times as many in 1820 as in
1800. |
Will not that part'of the country come under the complete control of the blacks 1 They are fast gaming upon
the whites, and unless some powerful means are speedily
taken to prevent it, we shall have a nation of blacks nearer
than St. Domingo.
Slavery is ruining the domestic industry of the southern
country. — Slave labor under no circumstances can be
brought into competition with free labor. Free labor can
be hired in the free States for the interest of the money
vested in Slaves, at the high price, which they have borne
for the cultivation of cotton and sugar, including the cost
of taking care of them. Millions of acres of land in the
slave holding states have been left as irreclaimably barren.

Is this group active?
This is brown paper bag, wadded, rewadded, and rewadded several times over. Then it has wax pencil (my collection is Prismacolor) to add the words, and other marks. Acrylic was added in drybrush, and copper acrylic added last. Some of the original sketch book skin shows. It resembles orange skin in texture. Hope this helps the question about crayons. It works the same on fabric, but the tighter the weave, more stabilized (even temporarily), adds to the ability to get the wax into the piece. Most of these are not wash proof. However, I have always used the same pencils for marking quilting, and drawing patterns on fabric.
So sorry to have sent the email to all. I am learning the site, and won't do it again.
Has anyone tried melting crayons onto paper? They say you can sew on it. Would appreciate any information
this week's technique is using pastels, which I find much easier to use
This week's technique is using crayon on fabric.
Hi I have just joined the group, and have been blogging for only a little while. I am looking forward to learning from all of you.
I have just posted on painting fusible web for texture, you can find it at
Also, there are two thers in past weeks on fusing plastics
and making fibre film
I am all about playing and experimenting to see what you can uncover and it seems like you guys are too!

Konohamaru Edit
Konohamaru, became a Genin at 9yrs old, proof is chapter 428, Seelentau showed me. ItachiWasAHero (talk) 21:44, February 24, 2014 (UTC)
- That raises a question if we should change it to Part I: Genin or keep it as is since chapter 428 is from Part II.--Elveonora (talk) 23:15, February 24, 2014 (UTC)
- I take it this is due to Konohamaru already having a forehead protector during the flashbacks when Naruto still has his pre-timeskip look while teaching him the Rasengan? Well, it's not some convoluted mess that requires using half a dozen events to be compared to one another to get a time frame, so yeah, that looks legit. However, considering that just referencing doesn't make that explicit, a more detailed reference tag might be necessary. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:28, February 24, 2014 (UTC)
Chunin Status Edit
I understand that anime events can have a tendency to not be canon, but the timeline for this impromptu Chunin Exams seemed accurate, being just before the Fourth Great War and before Naruto went to master Kurama's power. I really believe Konohamara should be officially noted as a Chunin, or at least mentioned as one in the ability section (as anime only). Steveo920, March 8, 2014, 14:34
- OVAs aren't even canon to the main anime or to each other. It's entirely a separate work, some of the fillers at least acknowledge the existence of each other, making them "anime-only canon" but OVAs don't do that. That's at least what I believe you are talking about, I don't recall him having become Chunin elsewhere--Elveonora (talk) 19:46, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
Ive always been wondering about this, if it isn't all canon then you guys are saying that there are many alternate universes within naruto. Masashi allows the fillers which should make them canon. Munchvtec (talk) 15:52, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

CJ Sapong got his sophomore season off to quite the start. The Sporting Kansas City forward headed home a stoppage-time goal in a 1-0 win over D.C. United during First Kick on Saturday. Sapong was last year's Rookie of the Year, but did not enter the match until the 75th minute.
On the goal, Sapong was able to shake his mark and got a clean header off a Graham Zusi corner kick. United goalkeeper Bill Hamid was essentially defenseless and the far post was left unguarded.
Up until Sapong's goal, the story of the match had been the standout performance of Hamid. Sporting KC had controlled much of the match, outshooting United 17-7. But Hamid had been up to the task, making several impressive stops among his seven saves. The best of those was off a Kei Kamara header that Hamid was able to knock away with his feet.
United rarely tested Sporting KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen, who had to make just one save. Forwards Hamdi Salihi and Dwayne DeRosario were basically kept in check, with each being limited to two shots.

Having Your Blood Drawn Made Simple
Having blood drawn is different for everyone. Some people aren't bothered by it at all, while others worry that they may pass out at the sight of a needle. In the hands of a skilled phlebotomist or nurse, a blood draw shouldn't be painful, but you may experience some discomfort. Regardless of whether having your blood drawn is no big deal or a major issue for you, some quick preparation for your blood draw can make the process much easier.
How Blood Is Drawn
The procedure for drawing blood, called venipuncture, is simple. In most cases, your blood will be drawn by a nurse or a phlebotomist — a person specially trained to draw blood. First, the site of the blood draw is cleaned with alcohol or another cleanser which will clean the area and remove germs. Then a tourniquet is tied above the site of the draw — such as the upper arm — to maximize the amount of blood in the vein while blood is drawn. Once the tourniquet is in place, a needle is gently pushed into the vein, and blood is collected. While the blood is being collected, the tourniquet is typically removed to allow blood to flow more easily. Once the blood has been drawn, the needle is removed, and pressure may be held on the site for a short while — or a small bandage may be placed over the site.
There are many blood tests that will obviously necessitate blood draw, and if you're having surgery, multiple blood tests may be necessary to determine if you're a good surgical candidate.
6 Tips for Blood Draws Made Simple
1. Breathe
Don't hold your breath while blood is drawn. Some people hold their breath in anticipation of the insertion of the needle, which doesn't help at all if you're feeling faint. Keep breathing at your normal rate and depth, and you'll be far less likely to feel lightheaded during a blood draw. If the potential for pain is making you nervous, the phlebotomist may have numbing medication available to minimize the pain.
2. Drink Water
Full veins are plumper than veins that aren't as full. If you're having blood drawn, unless you've been told not to eat or drink, make sure you're well-hydrated. This simple step will make it far easier for the person who is taking your blood to find a vein that can easily be punctured.
Ideally, start drinking more fluids the day before your blood draw, and continue to drink water before you have your blood drawn. Excessive amounts aren't necessary; most sources recommend that an adult drink 64 ounces of water per day for good health, which is more than adequate for having your blood drawn. Limit caffeine, which acts as a mild diuretic and increases the amount of urine you produce.
3. Be Honest
If you are someone who has fainted in the past when donating blood or having your blood drawn, be sure to tell the person who will be drawing your blood. If there is the slightest chance of fainting during a blood draw, positioning is key. You shouldn't sit on top of the exam table; rather, you should be positioned in a low chair where falling is unlikely.
4. Don't Look
If having your blood drawn makes you feel queasy, don't watch while your blood is drawn. For some, the sight of blood is the problem, so not watching while blood is collected can easily solve that problem. Look away, read a magazine, or watch television or whatever will distract you from the procedure.
5. Ask For Someone Else
If the person drawing your blood isn't successful after two tries, it's reasonable to ask for another nurse or phlebotomist to try. Don't allow yourself to be turned into a pin cushion for an inexperienced practitioner or someone who is struggling to find a vein to use. The phlebotomist may also try using a smaller needle, called a butterfly needle, which is large enough to draw blood but often works well on small veins. Stand up for yourself if you need to!
6. Sit Still
If you're moving and wiggling while someone is attempting to draw your blood, it's likely that he will have to make more attempts to obtain the sample. Sit still. Even if you are nervous, it's important to refrain from wiggling and fidgeting, or you could potentially add to the number of pokes required to draw your blood.

A vehicle containing five burned bodies found in the desert Saturday morning is registered to a Tempe missing family of five, including three children, law enforcement authorities said.
Police said the vehicle links back to the home of James and Yafit Butwin and their three children near Knox and Rural roads in Tempe.
Tempe police said Tuesday detectives had been pursuing the case as a murder-suicide investigation.
"There may have been a pending divorce," said Sgt. Jeff Glover of the Tempe Police Department. "There's other things going on financially."
CBS 5 News contacted James Butwin's attorney, who said, "This is the most cowardly act I can imagine anyone ever doing." Bill Bishop added the couple had no background of domestic violence and it was not a hotly contested divorce.
Bishop said James Butwin had been battling brain cancer. He had just celebrated a birthday on June 1.
The vehicle was located off Interstate 8, west of Casa Grande and south of Maricopa in the Vekol Valley in Pinal County, a known drug-smuggling corridor, according to the sheriff's office.
Border Patrol agents encountered a white Ford Expedition in the same area near Interstate 8 at approximately 4:30 a.m. Saturday.
Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said the SUV ran from agents and they continued to search for it through the morning.
Once the sun came up, Border Patrol agents found car tracks that looked like they launched off the highway.
"This Border Patrol agent had observed some tracks that left Interstate 8 in the very area where that sighting had occurred and it actually left the ground, like it launched off of the highway," Babeu said.
Babeu said they believe it's the same car found burned.
Four of the human remains were in the rear storage compartment of the vehicle, and one was in the second-row passenger seat, PCSO said.
PCSO homicide unit investigators said the area had several shoe prints and also "sleepy feet." That's a term referring to shoes made of carpet remnants or burlap by smugglers to hide their footprints. Investigators said it also appeared that an accelerant was used when the vehicle was torched.
The vehicle was so badly damaged that detectives said they were not able to locate any information to determine the identity of the registered owner.
On Saturday afternoon, PCSO said it received an anonymous phone call from someone who said he feared his brother-in-law was among the dead. The brother-in-law had told him the night before that he was "going to Vekol Valley to make money" with four other acquaintances, PCSO said. The five men were last seen in a Ford SUV.
On Sunday, a homicide detective again spoke with the anonymous caller who said he still had not been able to get in touch with his brother-in-law or his acquaintances. Homicide detectives were also not able to locate the brother-in-law, either. PCSO said it knows the names of the family members involved, including those who are missing. The family said it fears if any names are released, they could be targets of retaliation from a drug cartel.
An autopsy conducted Monday on the five human remains revealed the bodies were so badly burned that it may be difficult to determine whether they were killed before the vehicle was set afire or died in the fire. Their identities can only be determined by dental records, the Pima County Medical Examiner's Office said.
On Monday at about 2 p.m., Tempe police officers were called to a home in the 9300 block of S. Kenneth Place after receiving a missing persons report. Investigators said they discovered suspicious evidence inside the home and noted the family vehicle was missing. They alerted PSCO.
"I just heard that they went missing and then, you know, I heard that there was blood in the house and there were cops everywhere last night and just checking out the house," said a neighbor Jourean Gilson.
Tempe police officials said they do not think there are any other suspects involved in the case.
Sheriff's officials said they will continue working with the Pima County Medical Examiner's Office and the Tempe Police Department with the investigation.
People who might have any information about the case are asked to call the Pinal County Sheriff's Office at 520-866-5111.

One week after renowned legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky was offered the position of dean of the new law school at the
This is the latest chapter in the post September 11 attack on academic freedom under the guise of protecting security. Two weeks after 9/11, former White House spokeman Ari Fleischer cautioned Americans "they need to watch what they say, watch what they do." The American Council of Trustees and Alumni, a group founded by Lynne Cheney and Senator Joe Lieberman, accused universities of being the weak link in the war on terror; it included the names of 117 "un-American" professors, students and staff members. A few months later, a blacklisting Internet cite called Campus Watch was launched. It publishes dossiers on scholars who criticize U.S. Middle East policy and
In 2003, the American Association of University Professors recalled the "still-vivid memories of the McCarthy era" and warned of the perils of sacrificing academic freedom in the war on terror. The premise of their report was that "freedom of inquiry and the open exchange of ideas are crucial to the nation's security, and that the nation's security and, ultimately, its well-being are damaged by practices that discourage or impair freedom."
At a 2004 conference on academic freedom at UC Berkeley, Professor Beshara Doumani observed, "Academic freedom in the
Art. 9, § 9 of the California Constitution, which sets forth the powers and duties of the Regents of the University of California, provides, "The university shall be entirely independent of all political or sectarian influence and kept free therefrom in the appointment of its regents and in the administration of its affairs."
Drake denied he was influenced by pressure from donors, politicians or the UC California Board of Regents. Yet psychology professor Elizabeth Loftus, a member of the search committee, told the Los Angeles Times that Drake told the committee he was compelled to make the decision by outside forces whom he did not identify. Her account was confirmed by a second member of the committee, who talked to the Times on condition of anonymity.
Chemerinsky has handled several cases in the appellate courts and the U.S. Supreme Court, and has testified many times before congressional and state legislative committees, including before the Senate Judiciary Committee in the Samuel Alito confirmation hearings. Chemerinsky has represented Valerie Plame Wilson, the CIA agent whose identity was revealed by members of the Bush administration; a Guantánamo detainee asserting his right to habeas corpus; a man sentenced to 50 years-to-life under
UCI's November 16, 2006 press release announcing the inauguration of the new law school said, "UCI law graduates will be particularly encouraged to pursue careers in public service, including non-governmental organizations and philanthropic agencies. As part of their training, UCI law students will provide legal services to people who are unable to afford counsel. They also will be encouraged to pursue public interest law through programs focusing on underserved communities." Chemerinsky is devoted to public service as well as legal scholarship and education. He was elected by voters to be a Commissioner and chaired the Los Angeles Elected Charter Reform Commission; the new Charter was adopted by voters in 1999. He also spearheaded the Los Angeles Independent Analysis of the Board of Inquiry Report on the Rampart Police Scandal, Prepared at the Request of the Police Protective League, September 2000.
Untold numbers of law students have been helped through law school and the bar exam by Chemerinsky, including National Lawyers Guild Student Vice President Teague Briscoe, who said, "Chermerinsky on Constitutional Law saved my life in law school and I loved him doing the Professional Responsibility lectures but, most of all, I really dug that he was a progressive law prof who defends an unpopular client."
David Dow, Adjunct lecturer at the Annenberg School of Journalism and former veteran CBS correspondent who frequently interviewed Chemerinksy on legal issues, said, "I can't imagine any considerations that would outweigh the prospect of launching a law school with an internationally-known, highly-respected, fair-minded expert at the helm. Apart from his legal and professional credentials, Erwin has demonstrated an ability to get along well with colleagues and the community wherever he's been." Dow's words were echoed by Stanford Law School Dean Larry Kramer, who called Chemerinsky "the nicest person in legal education." Conservative law professor Douglas Kmiec wrote of Chemerinsky, "there is no person I would sooner trust to be a guardian of my constitutional liberty. Nor is there anyone I would sooner turn to for a candid, intellectually honest appraisal of an academic proposal."
One of the "controversial" matters Drake cited to Chemerinsky was an August op-ed the professor wrote in the Los Angeles Times criticizing a proposed regulation by then-Atty. Gen. Alberto Gonzales to shorten the time death row inmates have to file habeas corpus petitions. In an op-ed in the Sep. 14 Times, Chemerinsky explained, "There are more than 275 individuals on death row in
Drake's action, which sends a clear message to academics that they must avoid speaking out or writing about controversial issues, is a threat to academic freedom. As Chemerinsky wrote, "Without academic freedom, the reality is that many faculty members would be chilled and timid in expressing their views, and the discussion that is essential for the advancement of thought would be lost."
Hundreds of faculty, students and staff at UC Irvine are urging reinstatement of Chemerinsky. In an open letter to Drake, they wrote, "We are disturbed because of the deep violation both of the integrity of the university and of the intrusion of outrageously one-sided politics and unacceptable ideological considerations into a hiring process that should be driven by academic excellence, administrative experience, leadership capacity, and personal integrity."
Chancellor Michael Drake should immediately reinstate Professor Erwin Chemerinsky as dean of the UC Irvine Law School.

text: Wes Anderson Movie Quotes Wes Anderson's Guide to Love by Tara Block 3/05/14 7 Reactions 383 Shares Print 250 66 65 2 0 As a self-proclaimed Wes Anderson junkie, I can't wait for Friday's release of his latest film, The Grand Budapest Hotel. In what looks to be another classic from the famed director, the romance between lobby boy Zero (Tony Revolori) and Saoirse Ronan's Agatha is reminiscent of the young sweethearts in 2012's Moonrise Kingdom. Set in the '60s on a New England island, Moonrise film follows Suzy and Sam, troubled preteens who write love letters to each other before deciding to run away together. The young star-crossed lovers at the center of the camp-themed coming-of-age film really just melt your heart. Wes's films always incorporate a romantic coupling, exes, or a love triangle, and the characters involved are usually full of witty advice and observations on relationships. So until we see how Zero and Agatha's love story plays out in The Grand Budapest Hotel, let's look back at the couples and ex-couples from Wes movies along with their lines on love's redeeming, disappointing, and confusing qualities. Source: Fox Searchlight On Acceptance What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In the camp-set film Moonrise Kingdom, Sam and Suzy are preteen kids in love who run away from their troubled life situations to be together. In one scene, Suzy (who doesn't get along with her parents) laments that she wishes she were an orphan like Sam sometimes, because all her favorite literary heroes are. His response is great. Line on Love Sam: "I love you, but you don't know what you're talking about." Source: Focus Features 1 / 14 On Exes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The prologue to The Darjeeling Limited, Hotel Chevalier, gives background on Jack Whitman's (Jason Schwartzman) relationship with his ex-girlfriend (Natalie Portman). In the short film, Jack is staying at a hotel in France, and his ex surprises him with an international booty call, of sorts. Line on Love Ex-girlfriend: "Whatever happens in the end, I don't wanna lose you as my friend." Jack: "I promise, I will never be your friend. No matter what. Ever." Source: Fox Searchlight 2 / 14 On Apologizing What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) and his wife, Eleanor (Anjelica Huston), have a rocky relationship. But despite the arguments and Steve's fleeting interest in journalist Jane, they really do seem to "get" each other. Line on Love Steve Zissou: "You know I'm not big on apologizing. So I'll just skip it if it's all the same to you." Eleanor Zissou: "OK." Steve Zissou: "Anyway, I'm sorry." Source: Disney 3 / 14 On Honesty What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 While Moonrise Kingdom' Sam and Suzy are hiding out in a tent, Sam decides to put it all out there, sharing an embarrassing fact about himself. See, sometimes it's OK be honest about your flaws. Line on Love Sam: "It's possible I may wet the bed, by the way. Later, I mean." Suzy: "OK." Sam: "I wish I didn't have to mention it, but just in case. I don't want to make you be offended." Suzy: "Of course, I won't." Source: Focus Features 4 / 14 On Age Differences What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 At only 15, Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman) falls in love with elementary school teacher Rosemary Cross (Olivia Williams), involving himself in a love triangle with his older friend Herman Blume (Bill Murray) in Rushmore. Line on Love Rosemary Cross: "Has it ever crossed your mind that you're far too young for me?" Max Fischer: "It crossed my mind that you might consider that a possibility, yeah." Source: Disney 6 / 14 On Forbidden Love What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In The Royal Tenenbaums, Margot Tenenbaum (Gwyneth Paltrow)'s father, Royal, never let her forget growing up that she was adopted. So it's no wonder she falls in love with her brother Richie (Luke Wilson). After all, they aren't blood related. Their love story is actually really sweet, despite it being slightly incestuous. And you can't help but get teary eyed when Margot comforts Richie after he attempts suicide. Line on Love Margot: "I think we're just gonna have to be secretly in love with each other and leave it at that, Richie." Source: Disney 6 / 14 On Deal Breakers What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, pregnant journalist Jane Winslett-Richardson (Cate Blanchett) joins Steve Zissou's (Bill Murray) crew to do a profile on the renowned oceanographer. But things get complicated when both Steve and his son, Ned Plimpton (Owen Wilson), fall for her. Line on Love Jane Winslett-Richardson: "You're too old for me, Steve." Steve Zissou: "Yeah, well, you're pregnant." Source: Disney 7 / 14 On Marriage What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Fantastic Mr. Fox's Mr. and Mrs. Fox have their disagreements along the way, but they really do love each other. While Mrs. Fox has some sweet lines about her trouble-making husband, she can also be brutally honest. Line on Love Mrs. Fox: "I love you, but I should have never married you." Source: 20th Century Fox 8 / 14 On Tough Love What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Suzy's parents in Moonrise Kingdom, lawyers Walt and Laura Bishop (Bill Murray and Frances McDormand), aren't doing such a great job as parents, and their marriage is a mess too. In this scene, Walt knows that Laura has been having an affair but not that she's actually ended it. Line on Love Walt Bishop: "I hope the roof flies off and I get sucked up into space. You'd be better off without me." Laura Bishop: "Stop feeling sorry for yourself." Source: Focus Features 9 / 14 On Proposals What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In The Royal Tenenbaums, accountant Henry Sherman (Danny Glover), who's only had a professional relationship with Tenenbaum matriarch Etheline (Anjelica Huston) before approaching her with his feelings, chooses his words carefully when proposing marriage to her. It takes a while — and she has to deal with her jealous ex-husband trying to sabotage the union — but she eventually accepts. Line on Love Henry Sherman: "Apropos of my question regarding I-40 slash I-9 adjustments, um, it would probably be advantageous for your marital status to be legally established as single in light of the circumstances." Source: Disney 11 / 14 On Opening Up What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 While not many words pass between them, The Darjeeling Limited's Jack (Jason Schwartzman) falls for train attendant Rita (Amara Karan) while taking a trip through India with his two brothers. The star-crossed lovers share a steamy moment, but she's promised to another man. Jack is clearly still dealing with emotional scarring from his ex, so you've gotta love Rita's bluntness. Line on Love Rita: "What's wrong with you?" Jack: "Let me think about that. I'll tell you the next time I see you." Source: Fox Searchlight 11 / 14 On the Heart of the Matter What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 After the star-crossed lovers of Moonrise Kingdom are found by the adults and separated, Suzy's mom asks her daughter, "Why is everything so hard for you?"

But he really just enjoys making his nemesis — Eleanor's current husband, Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) — jealous in the process. Line on Love Alistair Hennessey: "You're the most ravishing creature that I've ever seen in my life." Source: Disney 13 / 14 On Sex What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In The Grand Budapest Hotel, M.

Tokyo stocks posted a gain Friday after highly volatile trading following the prior session's dramatic selloff. The WSJ's Michael Arnold and Jake Lee discuss whether the Japanese prime minister's 'Abenomics' is working.
Japanese stocks recovered Friday in another day of volatile trading, while Australia continued to struggle following Thursday's weak Chinese manufacturing data.
It was another day of wild swings in Tokyo, with the Nikkei Stock Average starting the day with a strong rebound from sharp falls on Thursday. Around lunchtime, the index turned sharply lower, at one point falling more than 3%, as the yen started to strengthen against the dollar. Just before the market closed, the benchmark index reversed direction again, finishing the day up 0.9% at 14612.45.
The yen rose after Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda testified in parliament on the central bank's asset-buying program that has sent tremor through the market for Japanese government bonds.
Exporters still managed to rebound despite the strong currency, along with real estate shares: Kyocera Corp. 6971.TO -0.02% Kyocera Corp.

The dollar was last at ¥101.63 just after Japanese stocks stopped trading, lower than ¥102.01 late Thursday in New York, but better than a session low of ¥101.05.
"We could be at a point of reckoning for the weak yen, which has powered the stock market's rise to the present," said Investrust CEO Hiroyuki Fukunaga.
Friday's gains came after Thursday's frenzy of selling that knocked the Nikkei down 7.3%—its largest single-day decline for more than two years.
The selloff on Thursday was prompted by the release of data that pointed towards a contraction in Chinese manufacturing activity, along with renewed concerns that the U.S. Federal Reserve could start to roll back its bond-buying program. Though Japan led the declines, the rest of Asia took a tumble—notably Hong Kong and Australia.
The violent trading on Friday suggests that Thursday's sharp moves were not just a one-off event, calling into question the strength of the Japanese rally, which has seen the Nikkei has soared 40.6% so far this year.
The index ended the week down 3.5%, its worst weekly performance since Japan's stock rally started in mid-November.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 fell 1.6% to 4983.50, extending the losses it suffered on Thursday. The Sydney market posted its worst weekly showing for a year, losing 3.9%.

Asian markets were mixed on Friday, though sentiment was supported by the fact that Thursday's heavy selling in Asia did not reach Wall Street, where stocks only recorded small losses overnight.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index lost 0.2% to 22618.67, the Shanghai Composite in mainland China was 0.6% higher at 2288.53 and South Korea's Kospi Composite gained 0.2% to 1973.45.
Markets in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand were closed for a holiday on Friday.
