Happy Birthday to the City of Lake Elsinore which turns 125 years old on Tuesday, April 9.
To mark the occasion, and to accommodate those who wish to celebrate, the city council will hold their regular meeting on April 9 at the Diamond Club at the baseball stadium. Following council business there will be a birthday cake and other festivities including a presentation by the Lake Elsinore Historical Society. The meeting begins at 7 p.m.
"Having grown to become what several people considered to be the major town in northern San Diego County, the town of Elsinore became the City of Elsinore on April 9, 1888, when its residents voted to incorporate it as a city and put matters of local government in their own hands," wrote historian Steve Lech in his great book "Along the Old Roads" quoting from the minutes of an 1888 San Diego County Board of Supervisors meeting.
Present day Riverside County was not formed until 1893 and, when it was, Elsinore became the second oldest city in the new county, behind only Riverside which incorporated in 1883.
In an interesting twist the San Diego County Board of Supervisors has declared April 9th to be Lake Elsinore Day in San Diego to mark the occasion and has sent a proclamation to be read at the meeting.
For you history buffs, Franklin Heald, one of the community's founders, was elected the first President of the City Council, Ruth Atkins of the historical society, told me.
Other original council members were F. Frame, J.B. Bonds, and J. P. Jones. D.F. Pierce was the first city clerk and L.B. Peck was the city recorder.
Voters changed the city's name to Lake Elsinore in 1972 in an effort to promote the community as a tourist and boating destination.
Later this month, on April 27th, the annual Unity in the Community Parade in Lake Elsinore will be honoring pioneer families and the community's history.
Entries are now being accepting for the parade. The deadline is April 24th.
Parade organizer and former school board member Jeannie Corral is hoping to get local schools involved because they are an important part of the community's history, she said. Both Elsinore and Wildomar elementary schools were founded before the city incorporated and Elsinore High was established in 1891, Coral told me.
For more information or to get an application to be part of the parade contact Corral at 951-674-4228 or Kathye Aniol at 951-674-4228.
The best breakfast deal in town this weekend might be the all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast being held to support a long-time local theater troupe.

The posture alignment grid is perfect for the many applications and all assessments I perform. Whether it is dynamic and static posture assessment this grid and the digital camera are perfect in locating postural deviations and discussing them with clients. I did a lot of research before I bought this grid and was a little nervous with spending the money. However, after seeing comparable products quality and finally owning it for a couple weeks I am feel it is necessary for any true professional in fitness to utilize. The functionality of showing clients on a grid their deviations through a digital camera is perfect baseline data and also helps with signing clients. Also, the added bonus which helps me a lot is the ability for the grid to retract for easy storage in small fitness facilities like the one I am at. I would highly recommend this product for fitness professionals.

Sandy Young's Got the Look
(page 2 of 2)
Besides being a model and being on camera, you're also a rock star. Do your kids think you're a cool mom?
Well, like I said, my kids keep me very grounded. Which, I absolutely love. They'll hear a song from me and they'll just be like, "OK, yeah, yeah." They don't even want to bother. And they'll see me on TV doing a commercial, or in print or wherever and they'll just be like "Yeah, yeah, yeah." So, that's what I love about them. They're real, they're honest and that's what keeps me grounded.
What's the one thing that's important for you to teach your kids about beauty?
That beauty comes in all different shapes and sizes.
You're the lead signer of WhoButShe. What did your bandmates think about you doing the show?
My bandmates are really supportive, they really are. Everyone that works with me knows that I am a very, very driven person. That's what everyone says…that they've never seen a person that's so passionate or so driven about their career. But they're very excited for me and they're not surprised whatsoever.
And how is singing different than modeling for you?
I try to combine both of them as far as how I am on stage and in photoshoots for the band…it's a part of being true to myself because it's really important to me. There's a lot of freedom in creating music because I write and produce as well, as opposed to being what the photographer wants you to be and taking direction from the photographer. There's a bit of a difference. But I try to have fun with both of them. Anything that I do, I try to have fun.
And you write a lot of lyrics for your own songs as well.
I do. I wrote the song "Demolition Girl." That was about teenage suicide.
What was the inspiration for that?
Well, I write from my life experiences. You know, coming from a foster home and feeling kind of worthless about myself, and feeling like, "What am I good at in life?" I was able to take, once again, my negative with relationships and…put it into something positive. And I found out that I'm a good writer. "Demolition Girl" happens to be about teenage suicide and I try to incorporate my past experience in a way where people can relate and they can listen to that song and be like, "Oh yeah, I've been there" or "I've done that." Because a lot of times when I was really young, I had good music and that was all I had. It was, like, my comfort. So, if I can affect one person like that, and they can listen to my music and they can be like, "Yeah, I was there, and I can relate, and I can feel better about myself," then that's wonderful.
Can you tell me a little bit more about growing up as a foster kid—I'm a foster parent myself to two teenage boys.
Oh, that's great that you've done that. It takes a really big heart to do that.
I know it's a really difficult position to be in—in foster care as a teenager. There are so many different pitfalls to it.
Yeah, my situation wasn't good. I was in a foster home where there was a lot of neglect going on, hence the reason I was left alone so much; that's when I actually started singing—right when I was able to walk. So, that was all I had. I would sing, I would make things up and sing. Basically, it was a lot of neglect, it was a lot of things that were going on in the house that were just horrible—it was like a living nightmare. But, I take the positive from it because that's made me who I am today—a better person, someone who really appreciates the little things and stuff like being around good people. Sometimes when I sit back and I kind of analyze my life from where I come from—from a mother that physically beat me, to a foster home where I was sexually abused, and neglected…not having a parent for all of those years and then going into an adoptive home that was very narrow-minded and conservative and being the person I am today, I'm really proud of myself for once that I really didn't let it affect me and really came out about things, and I'm definitely happy.
And that probably makes you extra cautious to make sure that your kids are happy and cared for.
Oh, definitely, definitely. I mean, I wouldn't wish my childhood on anyone. I really wouldn't.
You've seen so much ugliness in your life, what's the most beautiful thing someone's ever done for you?
Oh, that's a hard one. [Laughs] I definitely would say that the most beautiful thing is my children; seeing myself in my children, that's completely on a different level from anything else. To see them, and watch them grow up, and see yourself in them is like the greatest thing on earth. It's something that money can't buy, it's something—it's life. It's unbelievable. And to see my son playing guitar, and he plays it so good, that's, like, amazing.
That must make you proud.
Oh, it does make me proud. And my father passed away—I found my biological father and he passed away quite young. He had a heart attack and died and he was a very good producer and he was also a great guitarist and my stepmom was very happy that I continued that, because none of his other kids continued that and now I'm sure my father's really proud that my son is playing it and is carrying it on.
So you tracked down your biological father and had contact with him before he passed away?
Oh yeah. It really upset me that he died. He ended up dying of a heart attack at a young age. I ended up finding him, which was kind of sad because I grew up in an adopted home only down the road from him, 20 minutes. They were searching for years to try to find me and I was right underneath their nose. My father was well-liked in his community, he was involved in the church. What was really upsetting about the whole situation was one thing my father and I didn't see eye-to-eye on—we were so alike in so many different ways, like with music, and I look just like him—he didn't agree with me being a lesbian. So, what happened was, we got into a big fight about it and then I ended up saying "OK, you know, I can't have you involved in my life if you're going to be like this. This is who I am, I can' t help it, this is the way I am." The last time I talked to him he was like, "Well, if you need me, I'm here," and that was our last conversation and soon after that he passed away and I've had to deal with that. That can't be taken back—that we weren't talking at that time. But I did get the sense that everything's OK, after he passed away…just this sense that everything's OK.

vacation rental description
Lazee Days at Calabay Parc - your luxury villa holiday.
A 2800 Sq. Ft. Villa with L-shaped Pool is located in the original Calabay Parc, an exclusive community just 15-20 minutes or so from Disney. it is just north-west, but within 5 minutes of the I4 to take you in any direction! Calabay Parc is one of the most sought-after areas around Disney, with a proper "Desperate Housewives" feel about it, and wonderfully maintained with lots of trees and greenery. Lazee Days is tucked in to the very rear of the development near open woodland (preserve), and is hence subject to very little passing traffic – just your immediate neighbours - and feels wonderfully relaxing.
We would love to welcome you to our holiday home in the Florida sun and have you enjoy it as much as we do. We constantly make improvements and make sure the house is ship-shape and have great agents locally who can help you with more or less anything you need.
The Villa has 15 mbps ultra high speed Broadband Internet, and house & poolside Wi-Fi.
There is a fully kitted-out office upstairs with a high quality Dell computer, with a full HD screen, printer and scanner etc, for those who cannot escape a small bit of work whilst away.
The Villa has five good sized bedrooms, each with a new 32inch LCD TV, 2 as Masters with King sized (UK Super-King) beds, another Master has a Queen size Bed with ensuite and a further two twin rooms. One of these twin rooms also has a walk in closet, and an ensuite which is shared with bedroom 5. The main Master bedroom on the ground floor overlooks the pool and has a huge his and hers bathroom, and walk in closet.
All bedrooms have Cable TV (32inch Flat screens), and the downstairs kid's den has a PlayStation 2 and its own Large TV, with big double doors; all the better to shut them away behind! There is also a sofa bed in the den in case any fighting breaks out over who has which room. (Yup, that's seven TVs)
The main sitting room is beautifully designed, very comfortable, and opens on to the Pool Deck & Lanai. It has a new 47" 1080p High Definition TV & surround sound system which is just wonderful when viewing one of a number of Hi-Def stations on the Hi-Def Cable TV feed.
There is also a roomy Kitchen with built in Microwave, Dishwasher & American-Style Fridge with Cold Water/Ice dispenser, a breakfast/kids dining area as well as a walk-in pantry, and more than enough kitchen gadgets to make you feel right at home. There is a utility room with full sized US washer and Dryer. The adults have their own formal dining area off the living area, too. The house even has two Air-Conditioning systems, one for upstairs, one for downstairs, and has a lovely open feel.
The Pool/Deck & Lanai area has great views to a preserve close by where you will likely see deer, eagles, buzzards, racoons, snappers and even coyotes, with good open space behind which is unusual in most Villas. The Lanai has its own ceiling fan to create a cooling breeze, but this area also gets lovely morning sun, allowing you to breakfast in the sun before it gets too hot. The Lanai gives full cover (from around 9.30 in the morning) from the blistering sun, should you need a break from self-basting! The Pool itself is well sized and L-Shaped, with a maximum depth of 5 feet, but with entry steps/seats at either end of the L. On the point of the pool sits the Hot Tub/Spa which will seat 4+, and creates a nice waterfall feature and flow into the main pool. The Pool is heated by Gas, so the tub warms quickly, and at cooler times of the year, the pool can be brought to the desired temperature very quickly before you arrive, and topped up as required during your stay (there is an additional charge for Pool Heat). The pool is fully in the sun from early in the morning to last thing of an evening in the summer months and there is a large area of decking which is big enough to accommodate a number of full–time serious sun-worshippers.
Our holiday home is yours to enjoy as much as we do and we would love to welcome you to Florida.
Please email us and we will forward you many more photos to give you a better feel of the house, along with a reading pack of information about the Disney area and the locality around the house.

Improvements to Croydon's A&E face delays after multi-million pound review scrapped
Updated 3:53pm Tuesday 18th February 2014 in News By Andrew Bloss, Reporter
Proposed improvements to Croydon University Hospital's accident and emergency (A&E) department face significant delays after a healthcare review which cost millions of pounds collapsed.
An announcement from the six Clinical Commissioning Groups in south west London said they now want to develop a new five year strategy for local health services rather than continue with the Better Services Better Value (BSBV) review.
The review has cost taxpayers £8.2m and made no significant changes to healthcare over the last three years.
It means plans to upgrade Croydon's services, particularly the A&E and maternity departments at Croydon University Hospital, face significant delays.
The preferred option for health bosses involved in the review was for St Helier and Epsom Hospital to lose their A&E and maternity departments and the equivalent departments at Croydon, St George's and Kingston to expand by 2017-18.
But the plans are now off the table, at least until new recommendations are published in June.
The hospital's maternity department was labelled as one of the worst in the country last year in a CQC report but has since improved significantly following fresh investment.
Croydon North MP Steve Reed said it was a botched review and reiterated his stance that the town's health services needed improvement as soon as possible.
BSBV's purpose was to consult on a variety of measures to cut costs in local healthcare.
There was also an option where Croydon would lose its A&E and maternity departments but this was one of the least preferable and was widely considered unrealistic.
The six CCGs of Croydon, Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton, Epsom and Wandsworth, say they are still committed to bringing in change and improving local services.
A statement released on Tuesday said although they would not continue with their programme they will be discussing a new approach with the various boards and a new five year strategy is set to be announced in June.
Steve Reed said Croydon residents will no longer accept plans that will pose a threat to the town's services.
He said: "This botched consultation has wasted £8m that should have been spent on local health services and stems from the Government's failure to properly fund the NHS in the first place.
"Local people will not accept any further plans to downgrade local services when the CCG chairs produce new proposals in June."
Mark Justice, chairman of Healthwatch Croydon, an independent community group, said it was a missed opportunity to improve the town's health services.
He said: "We needed this to start turning things around. It is something that needed to be sorted out now not five years down the line otherwise we are going to have more difficulties with our health and social care in Croydon."

Yet again senior NHS Managers have squandered £8 million plus pounds and with no accountability .
It is time to shut down these trust and other quango leeches and recentralise control of the NHS under Whitehall, the corrupt farce that was once an attempt at labour's 'local democracy' is an abject failure. Time to return to that which is known to work.

In November of 2008, Ballmer had this to say about Google's plans for Android:
"I don't really understand their strategy. Maybe somebody else does. If I went to my shareholder meeting, my analyst meeting, and said, 'Hey, we've just launched a new product that has no revenue model!'...I'm not sure that my investors would take that very well. But that's kind of what Google's telling their investors about Android."But Google had a very clear revenue model for Android from the start: Give away Android to smartphone makers, make Google the default search, maps, and email provider, and get lots of money from advertising.
It's already paid off. An excellent Newsweek article about Android notes:
Google CEO Eric Schmidt says Android-based phones already generate enough new advertising revenue to cover the cost of the softwares development.And, as the article adds, Google may also eventually make money not just via ads, but also by launching a store to sell music and videos to Android users. Such a plan is already in the works. Reuters reports that Google is already in talks with record labels about such a service, and that it may launch by Christmas.
Where does Schmidt get his estimate of $10 billion a year annual revenue from Android? He believes that eventually there will be 1 billion Android phones in use, and that Google can get $10 per user per year from them.
That's not at all far-fetched. The Newsweek article notes that there are currently 1.3 billion Nokia phones in use. Given Android's growth trajectory, getting to 1 billion phones shoud be achievable. And given how aggressively Android owners use their phones to browse the Web and use other Internet-based services, the $10 per user seems quite reasonable as well.

It's been a couple days since I've posted a look for you (even though I post daily looks on my Instagram). I was in DC all weekend visiting Visar's sister and brother-in-law, but I also did a little shopping. There are still a ton of sales because designers are saying goodbye to the spring/summer trends and hello to fall trends. August is always an awkward transition for fashion because it's still very hot outside (in Virginia at least) yet all the stores are coming out with their warmer, autumn looks. Check out my pictures to see how I incorporated both summer and fall trends into one look.
Though sky blue seems to be more of a spring/summer look, I've seen many blazers and pant patterns incorporate this color. I love it because it's very feminine and pretty. The blazer and shorts are the same color even though each is a different fabric. The tweed blazer is the piece that ties in summer to fall. Tweed is a trend that started this spring and will be carried throughout the fall fashion season. Once you start to see more fall trends, you'll probably see tweed mostly in black and white which I absolutely love. To finish off this classy look, I added the pearl necklace and earrings Visar bought for my birthday (pearls are my birthstone, so I'm obsessed). Enjoy!
*The blazer is only available in Zara stores.

Phoenix runners plough though the mud
Updated 3:24pm Thursday 30th January 2014 in Sport By Alan Feldberg
SEVEN Wycombe Phoenix runners finished inside the top 100 at the Southern Cross Country Championships at Parliament Hill in London.
They were running in fields of anything up to 3,000 athletes, in dreadful conditions.
But Emma Delgado showed a handy turn of pace in the U17s event to come home in 40th place.
Earlier, the U13 girls had started the day brightly by coming home 23rd in the team event thanks to Maisie Pennant (90th), Katie Jones (96th) and Holly Hodgkinson (97th).
Amelia Jarvis was 184th.
Meanwhile, Cameron Almand ran strongly throughout to finish 49th in the U15s event, while Dan Weathers recovered from an early fall to finish 78th.
Aidan Kingman was 186th while Jack Blyth came in 154th in the U17s race.
In the U20 event, Georgina Russell worked hard for 50th and Megan Styles ran well to finish 90th in the U15 girls category.
Meanwhile, The Grant & Stone Marlow 5 will take place on Sunday, May 11 and the Grant & Stone Wycombe Half Marathon/10k races will take place on Sunday, July 20.
Online entry forms and printable application forms for both races are now available at:

Frequently Asked Questions
How to begin
A: Our Introductory Special is a sample of our basic services; private lessons, group lessons and practice sessions. Start with the private lesson. Call or email to make your first appointment.
What to wear
A: Clothing that moves with you easily. Your shoes should be flexible, fit closely to your feet and fasten securely. A smooth leather sole is best. Heavy tread, rubber soles and backless shoes are not good for your feet while dancing.
How many lessons are be needed
A: The levels of abilities are broad extending from single dance couples to style crossing aficionados. Allow a minimum of five private lessons to learn to execute a basic social dance at a level just beyond beginner.
Which dance is best for beginning
A: Fox Trot is the foundation for partnership dancing. It's always useful and appropriate. If you haven't determined a preference for a style of music you'd like to dance to your instructor will guide you through the process.
Swing, Salsa and Country Western are a good augment to classic social dances and there are many opportunities to use them.
Is a partner needed for learning
A: Beginning with private lessons you will be dancing with an instructor; the fastest learning method. Group classes and practice sessions are made up of solos students and students with partners supervised by instructors. Opportunities to practice with other students are built in to the class structure.
I have a deadline
A: If you're in a hurry we will do our best to accommodate you with appointments with one or more instructors whenever you're available. Your progress and lesson plans will be discussed to your best advantage.
A: With over 30 dances to choose from figuring out where to start can be daunting. We will ask you a couple of questions on your first lesson to help make recommendations on dances to learn. Dances that are popular to start with: Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Swing, Rumba, Foxxy, Merengue, Cha Cha, and Salsa.
A: If you are wanting to learn one dance for a special occasion, or because you have always just dreamed of dancing a particular dance than by all means concentrate only on that dance. If you are wanting to learn multiple dances than we highly encourage you to get started learning those dances at the same time. When you start to dance your body is learning new ways to move, so two or three dances at one time can speed up this process and in the long run allow you to learn to dance much faster.
A: Whatever the case may be, ASAP! At least take an Intro Special or Wedding Consultation lesson early to give you and the instructor an idea of what dance(s) need to be taught and how long it may take to learn a variety of patterns and techniques.
The earlier the lessons start, the more opportunity you give yourself to feel comfortable and confident with your dancing. Wedding couples especially, even if something simplistic is on the agenda, come in early to evaluate your needs.

I. Preparation in Quantitative Methods
As preparation for the general program requirement, some organizational behavior (OB) students, depending on previous preparation, find it useful to complete preparatory coursework in the summer prior to the first year (or in the first year). If you think you might not be prepared for the general program courses, you should ask questions of advanced OB students or the doctoral liaison.
II. General Program Requirement (GPR)
All students are encouraged to fulfill the general program requirement during their first year of study. Each course must be passed with a grade of P or B- or better. Interpretation of the LP grade will be determined on a case by case basis. Any changes to the GPR or Field Course Requirement (FCR) will be "grandfathered." Students are responsible for fulfilling the requirements in place at the time they entered the program.
In rare cases, the director of the PhD Program may waive a general program requirement for a student based on similar PhD-level coursework completed elsewhere. Substitutions as shown below can be arranged through the doctoral liaison, in some cases, for students with prior background in the indicated topic.
Students must take three GPR courses, one course in each of the following three topics: microeconomic analysis, econometrics, and organizations/psychology.
|Possible Substitutes
|MGTECON 600: Microeconomic Analysis I or
ECON 202N: Core Economics: Modules 1 and 2 For Non-Economic PhD Students
|ECON 151: Economic Analysis I
MGTECON 200: Managerial Economics (MBA Core)
MGTECON 606: Microeconomic Theory For Non-Economist PhDs
HRMGT 302: Incentives and Productivity
ECON 149: The Modern Firm in Theory and Practice
ECON 157: Imperfect Competition
|MGTECON 603: Econometric Methods I or
ECON 270: Intermediate Econometrics I
One-Course Sequences
MGTECON 604: Econometric Methods I
Two-Course Sequences
SOC 382 & SOC 383: Sociological Methodology II & III
|Organizations/ Psychology
|Macro and micro Organizational Behavior students fulfill the Organizations/Psychology GPR by fulfilling their Field Course Requirement, as listed below.
Every student, beginning in year one, will sign up for the required GSBGEN 699: Practicum in Research course for one unit. In terms during which students are doing a teaching practicum, they would sign up for GSBGEN 698: Practicum in Teaching.
|GSB 699: Practicum in Research or

There are many other courses taken by PhD students that are offered in departments outside Stanford GSB, such as Computer Science, Economics, Management Science and Engineering, Mathematics, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, and Statistics. Find descriptions of these course offerings at Stanford's Explore Courses site.
IV. Research Paper Requirement
By the end of the winter quarter in the second year, each student is required to submit a research paper prepared in collaboration with or under the direct supervision of a faculty advisor. Students will present this research paper in the OB seminar in the spring quarter. This paper is a key way that the OB faculty will track the progress of students in their second year and will play a major role in the student's second-year evaluation.
V. Field Examination
The organizational behavior field examination is comprehensive, drawing on the broad range of theory and research within the purview of organizational behavior. In general, the exam covers coursework from the first year. Students are expected to have an in-depth understanding of scholarship in organizational behavior, however, which often means covering more material than is assigned in the first-year courses.
For this reason, first-year students typically augment their coursework by studying independently in preparation for the field exam, gaining greater depth in the various research areas identified in their first-year courses.
In the examination, students are expected to show an understanding of existing literatures, and to address linkages and controversies among the various literatures. The examination assesses a student's ability to recognize similarities, differences, and relationships among different strands of organizational behavior scholarship, and to identify important research problems, issues, and prospects. Typically questions will also require that a student demonstrate the ability to design research that would address important research problems.
The examination is given to students as they finish their first year of study. Students are given two full days to complete the examination in an open-book, open-note format.
VI. Research Seminar Requirement
Students are required to attend regularly one of the research seminars coordinated by the OB faculty.
VII. Admission to Candidacy
Admission to candidacy for the doctoral degree is a judgment by the faculty of the student's potential to successfully complete the requirements of the degree program. Students may apply for candidacy after successfully passing the general program requirement, first- and second-year field course requirements, research paper requirement, and first-year field exam.
VIII. Supplementary Requirements
Students are urged to attend the workshops and colloquia offered by the Stanford Center for Work, Technology and Organization.
IX. Dissertation Research
Students complete the Oral Examination no later than the end of their fourth year in the program. The doctoral dissertation is expected to be an original contribution to scholarship, to exemplify the highest standards of the discipline, and to be of lasting value to the intellectual community.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Governor Rick Perry officially set Tuesday, November 2nd for the special election to fill the house seat held by Representative Carl Isett. KCBD told you this decision was coming earlier this month, but Perry gave the official word on June 11th, ahead of the Texas Republican Convention in Dallas.
Candidates for the special election must file an application with the Secretary of State by Friday August 27th. Whoever wins the special election will complete Isett's original term through December 31st. Then, whoever wins the general election will start on January 1st.
If a candidate wins both the general and special elections, that is good for Lubbock because this will allow the candidate to have six weeks of seniority over other new representatives. In terms of money, the special election is not costing Lubbock County tax payers extra, because it coincides with the general election.

so, I understand the solo aid climbing process with a grigri or other device. if you fall you are ideally caught by an autolocking device, but, should that fail, you are caught with a backup knot. I'm thinking, because I don't have any money to spend, of just pretying knots in the rope, and carrying it all in a backpack as I climb, with 2 biners on my harness to clip into the knots with every 10 feet. keep in mind this would be on easy (C1-C1+) aid. what is the best knot to use in this scenario? butterfly? fig. 8 on a bight? clovehitch? it's pretty much impossible to untie a fallen on clovehitch, so I'm leaning away from that.
first off, dont fall when you rope solo. second, a clove is probably best, though slow option if you arent going to use a soloist or silent partner (silent partner uses a clove hitch anyway) besides, somethings wrong if you fall on C1 aid. and lastly. dont skimp on safety based on finances.
I won't be falling, but just as a precaution I thought I'd use a rope. I've aidied in my climbing gym, clipping bolts, several times, so I know the basic aid sequence. I don't really want to drag anyone to belay me for several hours while I flail up a aid pitch. I trad climb extensively so I know how to place gear, I ain't no tard.
good call Brian, thanks, I'll give that technique a try.
www.rockandsnow.com/store/product/324/USHBA-ASCENDER-BASIC-A>>> I use one of these for all of my rope solo exploits, feeds smoothly, and efficiently as you climb. This, I feel, is better than tying ten foot sections of knots, or a clove hitch, you can tie just enough knots so you dont deck, allowing you to concentrate on the movements and what your doing rather than fawkin around with inefficiently feeding knots, and avoiding the massive dynamic loads that would be generated were you to fall ten feet onto a static anchor.

Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
Ex-Smoker Featured in Anti-Smoking Ads Dies of Cancer
Cancer has claimed the life of a former smoker who had a prominent role in a U.S. government anti-smoking campaign that featured graphic ads.
Terrie Hall, 53, died at a hospital in Winston-Salem, N.C. on Monday, the Associated Press reported.
Hall was diagnosed with oral and throat cancer and had her voice box removed years ago. The cancer, which spread to her brain this summer, was caused by the cigarette smoking she began in high school, according to federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials.
"She was a public health hero," said Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the CDC, which conducted the campaign, the AP reported. "She may well have saved more lives than most doctors do."
Hall had a leading role in the "Tips from Former Smokers" campaign, which focused on how smoking-related cancer ravages the body. In her first ad, Hall was shown putting on a wig, inserting false teeth and using a scarf to cover a hole in her throat. It was the campaign's most popular ad and received more than 2.8 million views on YouTube, the AP reported.
Another ad featured Hall speaking with her artificial voice box and advising smokers to make a video of themselves singing or reading out loud. "I wish I had. The only voice my grandson's ever heard is this one," Hall said in the ad.
Fetal Pain Science Unclear
Since 2010, a dozen U.S. states have enacted laws banning abortion at 20 weeks after conception, saying that fetuses can feel pain at that point of development. However, the science is unclear.
Most scientists who have waded into the debate have said they believe that if fetuses can feel pain, it's not until well after 20 weeks and after the point in time when nearly all abortions occur, The New York Times reported.
Abortion opponents say that some scientific research shows that fetuses can feel pain at 20 weeks after conception. One of those scientists said fetuses could likely feel pain then, but added that the few abortions performed at that point could be done in ways to avoid pain.
He and two other researchers do not believe their work or current evidence provide scientific support for abortion laws based on fetal pain, The Times reported.
In some cases, scientists' opinions have changed as more studies have been conducted. One of those is Dr. Nicholas Fisk, a senior maternal-fetal medicine specialist at Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital in Australia, and former president of the International Fetal Medicine and Surgery Society.
He once believed that early fetal pain was "a major possibility" after discovering that fetuses receiving blood transfusions showed increased stress hormones and blood flow to the brain, and that painkillers lowered those levels.
However, neurological research has convinced Fisk that fetal pain "is not possible at all" before 24 weeks, The Times reported.
Supporters of fetal-pain abortion laws contend that surgeons' use of anesthesia and painkillers when operating on fetuses in the womb proves that fetuses feel pain. But fetal surgeons say the drugs are used for reasons other than fetal pain.
Anesthesia is given to the mother and fetuses are given muscle relaxants and narcotics, according to Dr. Scott Adzik, a fetal surgeon at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The drugs are given to prevent pain in mothers, relax the uterus, immobilize the fetus and block harmful effects of a fetus's hormonal stress response, he explained.
Adzik said he did not know if fetuses would feel pain without these drugs, The Times reported.
Supporters of fetal-pain abortion laws often cite the work of Dr. Kanwaljeet Anand, a professor of pediatrics, anesthesiology and neurobiology at the University of Tennessee's Health Sciences Center.
He believes it likely that fetuses can feel pain at 18 to 24 weeks, but added that the "issue of fetal pain does not have much relevance for abortion, since most abortions are performed before the fetus is capable of experiencing pain," The Times reported.

The recruitment and selection of dermatology residents will be done in accordance with both The Ohio State University and University Hospital policies of equal opportunity and non-discrimination with regard to sex, race, age, religion, color, national origin, disability, or veteran status. In addition, the dermatology division will adhere to the eligibility criteria outlined in the Institutional and Common Program Requirements published by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the Program Requirements of the Dermatology Resident Review Committee (RRC).
Residents will be independently selected by the Dermatology Residency Training Program Director. Residents will be selected in a manner consistent with the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP).
Prospective candidates must fulfill the requirements for appointment to the faculty of The Ohio State University as Clinical Instructor Housestaff and to the medical staff of University Hospitals as a member of the Limited Medical Staff. This includes the ability to obtain a Training Certificate or permanent medical license through the State Medical Board of Ohio.
The dermatology division only accepts applications submitted via the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Application deadline is October 15, 2013.
We place an extremely high importance on selecting applicants for residency who will excel during their time at Ohio State and who will get the greatest amount of benefit out of the opportunity to train at our program. Part of our approach to selecting applicants who will excel here is interviewing a small number of applicants, but putting a great deal of effort into understanding those applicants very well. To assist us in selecting applicants to interview, we ask that in addition to submitting your ERAS application, please email your answer to the following supplemental question:
The dermatology residency program at Ohio State is based on the idea of having intrinsically motivated residents. There are three key components to intrinsic motivation - the desire to feel a part of something bigger than oneself, the desire to feel competent, and the desire to feel autonomous. In one paragraph, describe which desire is the biggest driver of your intrinsic motivation.
The subject of your e-mail should be "APPLICANT DERMATOLOGY SUPPLEMENT: Firstname Lastname, ERAS Number ########" (please replace the appropriate fields with your information).
Please send responses to the prompt to firstname.lastname@example.com by October 15, 2013.
Based on the application materials submitted, a decision is made on whether to ask the applicant to participate in the interview process. Interview candidates may be asked to submit additional information. Interviews are generally conducted on a Friday in December. There will be a dinner on Thursday evening. The interviews will last until 3:00 pm on Friday.

Story:I was aboard a Lingus Airlines airplane, en route from Istanbul to BWI, waiting in Shannon for takeoff. We never got a go-ahead.
Memory:My strongest memory is real-time sound and pictures on the TV in the Shannon airport waiting lounge. I was watching along with hundreds of stranded travelers, and it was very quiet except for the TV.
Then there is the long time I spent while trying to telephone my wife in Washington, DC, from the airport.
And finally, priests and private individuals opening their churches and homes for the travelers to stay.
Affects:I think these events made this country's core values even dearer to be held up and protected.

Nothing makes your eyes look more dramatic than a set of long, luscious lashes. Our beauty expert, Jessica Metivier, shows how to apply them correctly so they add a touch of glam without taking away from your natural beauty.
"The lashes come kind of adhered to their package, so you want to get them off without damaging them, or pulling on them," Jessica explains. "Curl your natural lashes, then apply one coat of mascara and allow to dry completely. Holding the lashes with tweezers, use a toothpick to apply a thin layer of lash glue."
Another tip is to wait 20 seconds. That allows the glue to get nice and tacky, so it's not sliding around on your eye when you apply it.
Apply the lashes right at your lash line, going from the inner corner to the outer corner.
"Looking down into a hand mirror gives you a great angle to do this," says Jessica.
Using a toothpick or the end of a small make-up brush, carefully push down any sections that don't feel like they're right at the lash line. Once secure, carefully apply another coat of mascara to adhere lashes together.

UFC Middleweight Vitor Belfort looked like a new 'Old Vitor' in his most recent bout against Michael Bisping at UFC on FX 7 in Brazil. Belfort had permission from the UFC-affiliated athletic commission there to use testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).
But don't expect Belfort to get the same consideration in Nevada, a jurisdiction where he failed a steroid test while fighting for Pride Fighting Championships back in 2006. Damon Martin spoke to Nevada State Athletic Commission executive director Keith Kizer:
"I don't see Vitor Belfort getting a TRT exemption from us. I really don't and I feel kind of bad for him in some ways because if he has learned from his mistakes and now he's trying to do it the right way and his levels are low with the treatment good for him and I hope he is doing that."
Kizer also addressed the issue of Chael Sonnen who will be fighting in Nevada for the Light Heavyweight title against champion Jon Jones at UFC 159. Sonnen failed a post-fight urine test in Calfornia for elevated testosterone ratios.
"(Chael Sonnen) handled himself well and some people handle themselves well," said Kizer. "Some guys are going to have to jump through some additional hoops, but even Chael wasn't a prior steroid (user) that could have caused the deficiency like Vitor."
It will be very interesting to see if the UFC books Belfort to fight in Nevada anytime soon.

The Seattle defense in the first half of the MNF game may have been the best I've seen all year, by any team. I'm sure Sam Bradford is having nightmares right now.
I'm an editor at Turf Show Times, the SBNation site for the St. Louis Rams. I thought I'd drop in to both ask and answer questions as the game this week creeps up on us. The Edward Jones Dome should be rocking when our two teams meet. The Rams are still looking for a gob of answers to questions on the offensive side of the ball, while our defense seems to be finding a personality all its own.
Like the Chicago Bears game last week, I don't see tons of scoring happening by either side in the coming game. Defenses will rule the day, and two damn good secondaries will have their way with both wide receiver corps. You have the edge here though, in that our offensive line makes the Packers' line look great.
Both teams have the potential for solid rushing attacks, and I think whoever runs the ball best will win this one.
I have a couple of question to get things started, one being why doesn't Russell seem to like throwing to Sidney Rice?
If there's a weakness on the Seattle defense, where would it be? I've read some comments in threads here at Field Gulls that are calling for Matt Flynn already. Just how short a leash is Russell on?
I'll be inviting the Turf Show Times readers to drop in to help answer -and ask - questions over the next few days. If any of them forget they're guests here, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Here's to a great, injury free game!

More From London's Triumphant MAN Day-------
Wade with an open mind through the variety of shows and presentations on offer during London Fashion Week's MAN Day, and you'd have been impressed by just that—variety. From Savile Row smart to Mineshaft sleaze, London's menswear designers laid out a buffet that could make your palette pulsate with pleasure or leave a bad taste in your mouth. But what was immediately striking about every single designer who showed a men's collection on Wednesday is how sophisticated they were with their back-stories. James Long, currently anointed The One to Watch, referenced Fuse Boy, a film by the scarcely-known Canadian filmmaker Guy Maddin, for a collection (pictured) which imagined men in a steamy boiler room, their steam-saturated clothes slowly going moldy. That scenario scarcely impeded appreciation of Long's masterful use of leather. New Power Studio was inspired by London's multiculturalism and, at a time when the city feels like it is splintering, there was idealism in a show that offered a cross-section of ages, races and sizes in sportswear that was elemental enough to embrace them all. And, because I'm a fashion trainspotter, I couldn't help drawing a line from the last look—a be-glittered guy in a shtreimel—to the ultimate fashion idealist Jean Paul Gaultier's Jewish collection in 1993. Turns out NPS's main man Thom Murphy is a big Gaultier fan.
If the rest of the world is going to get the picture, it is essential that MAN Day bring together all the strands of the burgeoning British menswear scene. I felt this one did. I've already written about Topman and I'll have more to say about E.Tautz. The ideas they represent—the heritage of Savile Row, the historical romance of benchmark English designers like Galliano and McQueen—clearly provide a framework that is dictating the direction of many younger designers. James Small was so focused on tailoring that he trimmed everything superfluous out of classic men's pieces. That peacoat? So lean it was mean. Lou Dalton, Carolyn Massey and J.W. Anderson opted for history, a temporal construct (Bonnie Prince Charlie) in Dalton's case, a personal patchwork with Anderson, with a knapsack laden with roses (below) as one of the day's enduring images.
And it wouldn't be London if there wasn't at least one intensely polarizing presentation. Rasharn d'Vera Agymang and Jaiden James are buoyant twentysomethings who make clothes that are anything but upbeat. With Mad Max apocalypse and Mapplethorpe's X Portfolio in mind, they produced a collection of fetish leathers that was numbingly literal. Meanwhile, Re:Bel, the magazine they make together, was being distributed outside in the courtyard of Somerset House. It's an impressive feat, a manifesto that rebuts the bloggy brevity their peers opt for. In fact, Re:Bel looks so substantial that it made the clothes feel like an afterthought. But, from Karl Marx to Malcolm Maclaren, London has always been the city that is kindest to manifestos.
MAN Day Does Its Homework-------
Carolyn Massey is making good use of her Rolodex. The menswear designer's Fall 2010 collection (pictured, left) kicked off LFW's MAN day yesterday, with help from some high-profile friends (Little Boots, who created the soundtrack, and Hannah Martin, who created the jewelry). But she also got a boost from one very low-profile one—namely, an anonymous man on the inside who arranged what she described as "unprecedented" access to an archive of military apparel patterns. "It was a way of legitimating the reference," Massey explained of her studies of the old patterns, which shaped the construction of the collection's smock tops and flight suits. Not that she didn't put her own stamp on the clothes. Massey injected petal pinks and beiges into her otherwise neutral palette and moved into prints, inspired by Ray Johnson's postal art.
J. W. Anderson, who shared the morning runway with Massey, was also inspired by the old—old friends, old lovers, and old iterations of himself, he said, and offered a collection steeped in nostalgia for salad days (pictured, right). Fringed and patchworked coats and bags referenced items made, of necessity, from blankets, while stitched-up Frankenjeans conjured a poor man's mending. The look was punk-inflected, with lots of plaids and studs, but the attitude was more dreamy than hard. Anderson said after the show that he was in a Joycean frame of mind. Was that a reference to wandering Leopold Bloom? The collection did have a peripatetic quality, and you could almost imagine his men rambling around town in their studded Swedish military boots. Would-be wanderers could get instant gratification: Anderson was offering a selection of items from the collection for immediate sale via www.oki-ni.com, those stamped and numbered boots among them. (The journey's already begun, apparently—by press time, the boots, were already sold out.)
The literary also made an appearance later in the day, at Tim Soar. In Soar's case, the idol was Proust, and the idea was the remembrance of things past. (Ah, that old chestnut.) Soar took that notion literally: He explained that he saw his new collection as a remix of the "greatest hits" of menswear over the past 150 years. The argyle sweater, for instance, was updated with leather diamond inserts, and the dress shirt turned up as a sheer blouse. Soar tightened up his proportions for Fall and said after his show that he had based his tailoring on studies of old patterns, which emphasized a front-to-back construction rather than the contemporary side-to-side. Rather less technically, Soar went on to note that his focus this season wasn't so much on creating "looks" than on creating luxe garments. "I think that's how people dress, really," he noted. "They find something they love, and they find a way to work it into the wardrobe."
