People of Faith: General Stonewall Jackson
- Monday, February 03, 2003
In late March [1863], Jackson moved his headquarters from Moss Neck to Thomas Yerby's, near Hamilton Crossing. An outdoor chapel was prepared nearby, and services were held in the open air. Trees were felled and used for benches. There [chaplain] Tucker Lacy led the Sunday morning and evening services and Wednesday prayer meetings. Hymn sings were also held there on Sunday afternoons.
Often General Lee and other officers would worship there with men of Jackson's Second Corps. One April Sunday there were at least one thousand present. Rev. Lacy had never addressed such an imposing and respectful audience: "It was a noble sight to see there those, who led our armies to victory and upon whom the eyes of the nation are turned with admiration and gratitude, melted in tears at the story of the cross and the exhibition of the love of God to the repenting and return sinner."
Sandie Pendleton, one of General Jackson's aides, wrote his mother that Rev. Lacy was very effective in energizing the chaplains. He was an eloquent preacher as well as a charming companion at the staff mess. He was a great teller of stories and was full of witticism that always enlivened conversation.
In April, Jackson's wife Anna and baby Julia were able to come and spend some time with General Jackson at the Yerby's house. Jackson had not yet seen his little daughter and was the most doting of fathers when she came. On April 23, Rev. Lacy baptized little five-month-old Julia.
The following Sunday, the open air chapel was crowded with soldiers. An hour before the service was to begin, all the seats were occupied, and the soldiers were reading religious material and Bibles that had been distributed to them. General Jackson and Anna later arrived, as did Generals Lee, Early, and Kernshaw.
In a strong voice, Rev. Lacy preached to the large congregation a powerful sermon on the rich man and Lazarus, contrasting this world and the next. It was the last sermon General Jackson ever heard, for he was wounded six days later.
On the night of May 2, 1863, General Jackson was seriously wounded; his left arm was amputated in the early morning of the following day. When Rev. Lacy came to the tent where Jackson's arm had been amputated, he exclaimed, "Oh, General, what a calamity." Jackson thanked him and said, "You see me severely wounded, but not depressed, not unhappy. I believe that it has been done according to God's holy will, and I will acquiesce entirely in it. You may think it strange; but you never saw me more perfectly contented than I am today."
With his firm trust in God's providence, Jackson knew his wound was God's will, and he would wait until God revealed His reasons.
Jackson told Lacy that when he was lying wounded on the field and when he was being carried in the ambulance, "I gave myself up into the hands of the Heavenly Father without a fear. It has been a precious experience to me, that I was brought face to face with death, and found all was well." In the following days, at Jackson's request, Lacy had daily devotions at Jackson's bedside at ten o'clock.
The following Sunday, between twenty-five hundred and three thousand assembled for worship at Jackson's headquarters. Before the services, General Lee met Lacy and asked him about General Jackson's condition. When told he was growing weaker by the moment, Lee emotionally replied, "Surely, God will not take him from us, now that we need him so much. Surely he will be spared to us in answer to the many prayers which are offered for him."
For the text of his sermon, Tucker Lacy used Jackson's favorite Scripture: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" (Rom. 8:28).
All the men were thoughtful and serious as they thought of all that depended on Jackson's recovery. At the end of the sermon, Rev. Lacy said it might be God's will to spare Jackson's life in answer to their prayers, and he called on all to petition the throne of grace for Jackson. At the conclusion of the time of prayer, Lacy said whatever God would do in the event would be for the best.
When Jackson died that day, there was a calm and peace among the soldiers. They accepted Jackson's death as part of divine providence, even if they did not understand it.

Lymphedema Therapy
Lymphedema Therapy
The swelling in lymphedema is caused by an abnormal accumulation of protein and water molecules in the tissue and results from the inability of the lymphatic system to perform one of its basic functions, the removal of water and protein from the tissues of a certain portion of the body. This insufficiency can be caused by developmental abnormalities of the lymphatic system (primary lymphedema), or damage to the lymphatic system such as the removal or radiation of lymph nodes in cancer surgery, or infection of the lymphatic system (secondary lymphedema). Lymphedema is most common in the arms or legs, but can affect other areas.
In order to reduce the swelling it is necessary to re-route the lymph flow – to include excess protein and water molecules – around the blocked area(s) into more centrally located healthy lymph vessels. This goal is achieved by a combination of different treatment modalities, all of which are integral components of CDT (Complete Decongestive Therapy), and include:
- Manual Lymph Drainage
- Compression bandaging and garments
- Therapeutic exercise
- Skin care
Upper extremity lymphedema generally can be treated in 3-4 weeks, and lower extremity lymphedema in 3-6 weeks, 3-5 times per week. We offer Physical Therapists who are Certified Lymphedema Therapists (CLT).

What goes around comes around in kid's styles, often with a fresh new twist. We've been on the look-out for simple ideas and trends for this back-to-school season… watching our own kids + their friends gives us clues for kids, from toddler to teen.
Here are a couple of our style observations on accessories…
The All-American bandana is back! For girls, the fashion bandana is mixed with a fun bun, like these…

For boys, we found this sweet spin on bandana charm via etsy…
These hip bandana trends work especially well when paired with denim, always an American classic.
Another style to watch in kid's fashion is knit beanies, for both both boys and girls alike. Here are a few images of inspiration…

Back to School is about a fresh start. Brand new tools. A time to get organized. We are probably not the only ones who enjoy shopping for crisp, colorful binders and composition books… sharpening stacks of #2's …preparing children for the new year and organizing their living spaces for the school year. Where to begin?
Here's one way to organize a girl's bedroom: build a study and storage space that fits your space and style. Shown above: Young America Dana Writing Desk combined with two Dana Door Bookcases, a Dana Storage Hutch and a Bailey Banker Chair.
A Newberry Bookcase Bed (below) paired with two Dana Low Bookcases creates an attractive, practical space for the (many) things that may otherwise end up on the floor, under the bed or who-knows-where…
Mixed and matched, Dana furniture styles are space-saving, versatile and blend easily with Young America collections and styles you may already have in your home. Perfect for a child's bedroom in your choice of paint finishes and wood tones.
Young America Dana study and storage ideas to help organize a modern boy's room too.
Cubbies, bins, drawers and doors provide space to stow and display everything.
shown above: Dana Writing Desk and Dana Large Console (top with monitor/tv) with two Dana Door Bookcases, Dana Storage Hutches and Bailey Banker Chairs. A Newberry Bookcase Bed (below) is flanked with Dana Low Bookcases for a cozy library effect.
Here are some other fun ideas we've found while looking around online…

How about stacks of colorful organization? Just a little paint & imagination goes a long way. Having ample storage is key, whether in boxes, bins, baskets or jars.

Task lighting is another essential. We found a current source for some colorful desk lamps at apartmenttherapy…
…and another fun idea for creating order in your study space, using a peg board to display artwork or assignments…

What comes to mind when you think of your childhood? Carnivals, bubblegum, hopscotch and playgrounds?
For most of us, childhood memories include CANDY; favorite sweet treats like cotton candy, lemon drops and lollipops.
We all loved playing the game of Candyland… creating gingerbread houses with gum drops & peppermints…trips to the corner store for a candy fix… rivers of chocolate in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Children love the idea and fantasy of being surrounded by candy and its sweet goodness. What could be better?
(above image via Vogue UK)
So tapping into this sweet formula of child + candy = happy… we created fun, delicious elements with candy for a recent photo shoot. Jars filled with bubblegum balls, candy necklaces, pixie sticks, rock candy and other vibrant confections bring color, pattern and texture to the room. Layers of colorful fun create a design theme every child will love. We swirled candy button strips into a large jar and taped jumbo-sized dots to the wall. Imagine the fun and temptation of a whole wall covered in candy dots!
Use your imagination to bring a little bit of old-fashioned candy store charm into your son's or daughter's room.
Here's our take on creating candy décor…
This room features our Young America Abigail Collection. Playful bedding & pops of color complement the layers of candy on the dresser.
We saw this image recently via Hus & Hem and fell in love with the giant confetti dots on the walls. What a great way to add color & fun to a young one's bedroom…
See our pinterest boards for even more ideas for decorating with candy & color… and bringing fun to your child's world. Be creative! & Be sure to share your sweet results with us.
Paper planes! They are magical and bring us back to our childhood. This DIY project gives a nod to nostalgia with a fresh new take on paper planes… a way to recycle and re-purpose otherwise wasted materials: maps. Our paper planes are made with re-purposed Atlas pages. To create this look, search your home for old maps or look for vintage maps on ebay or a local antique shop for an especially nostalgic look. The colors, graphic details and reference to travel make maps the perfect medium for paper planes.
When starting your own DIY paper plane craft project, you can select the map pages with your child…choosing maps of special places you've traveled to…or places you dream to go.
Folding paper planes involves various techniques you can learn easily online or from most school age kids. We found these links to tutorials here and here for a quick how-to.
Once we created a variety of paper aircraft, we strung them together with fishing line. You may choose to display planes against the wall as a piece of art too, like we did for our All Seasons Design Guide…
Or, as streamers in a window…

For our Young America showroom we created a mobile using a plane propeller from Authentic Models as the base and hung our paper plane garlands from it. We especially love the natural movement mobiles create. What do you think?
Our paper plane room features a Young America Built to Grow Debut Crib in Slate Antique. We also included the plane theme with artwork by Spicher and Company.

Happy paper plane-making! Whether you choose to decorate with them or just PLAY!
Contrary to what you see in catalogs, tv and other media, vibrant pinks and bright purples are not the only way to decorate a girl's nursery or bedroom. There's another choice: Neutrals. Calm, sophisticated and equally feminine, neutrals are soothing in a bedroom. Rather than an explosion of color, why not try something more understated and peaceful.
Neutral colors paired with "pops" of colors and patterns can be striking and inviting. The opportunities for contrast, texture and accents are limitless; neutrals are infinitely versatile. A few well-placed colorful, patterned, and textured accessories can bring soft neutrals to life without overwhelming a room.
Inspiration for contrast and color can be found in everyday objects and nature.
Rugs, bedding, wallpaper, lighting, pillows and other playful items like a mobile, paper lanterns, or favorite wall art are expressive; a little color goes a long way and can completely transform your daughter's room.
Young America neutrals include paint finishes like Sandpiper, a soft gray, shown here in a myHaven bedroom. Other neutral colors and warm tints in our palette include: French White, Oatmeal, Creme, Heron, Bluet and Bliss. We also offer neutral wood tone choices like Slate, which can be paired with both neutral and vibrant hues with ease.
Above all, experiment and have fun!
Bliss is a happy baby. Rosy cheeks. Summer blossoms. A child's giggles. And so many other wondrous things. Bliss is a warm and joyful feeling. Our new Young America paint color, Bliss, captures the essence of the word as a gentle blush of pink. It's delicate, uplifting and happy. Beautiful in a nursery or a young girl's room, Bliss is a hue that endures.
shown here: Built to Grow Gala Crib and Isabella Single Dresser in Bliss with a Changing Station in Starlight

WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5 (HealthDay News) -- Many people with
pacemakers and implanted defibrillators can safely undergo MRIs to
screen for cancer and other diseases, as long as certain procedures
are followed, a new study finds.
Those procedures include only using MRI on people with
pacemakers manufactured in 1999 or later or defibrillators
manufactured in 2000 or later, and making sure a cardiologist or
other trained medical professional is on hand to program the heart
devices to make them MRI-safe and monitor the patient's heart
rhythm during the scan.
"It has to be done right. It has to be done carefully, and there are potentially significant problems that can occur. But there are no patients in this study that have any substantial direct harm from having an MRI done," said Dr. Matthew Reynolds, an assistant professor of medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School.
Reynolds wrote an editorial accompanying the study, which
appears in the Oct. 4 issue of
Annals of Internal Medicine.
About 75 percent of people with pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter defibrillators eventually develop some condition that
would call for using an MRI, according to background information in
the study.
An estimated 1.8 million people in the United States have either
a pacemaker, which regulates heart rhythm using electrical impulses
delivered via electrodes to the heart; or an implantable
cardioverter defibrillator, which senses abnormal heart rhythms and
delivers an electrical shock to the heart to prevent sudden cardiac
Yet the concern was that the powerful electromagnetic fields
generated by MRIs could (1) cause the devices to move inside the
body, (2) cause the largely metallic devices to heat up and burn
tissue or (3) confuse the implanted heart devices, causing them to
malfunction or misfire.
In a study funded by researchers from Johns Hopkins University,
438 patients with either a pacemaker or defibrillator underwent a
total of 555 MRIs.
During the scan, researchers either turned down the sensitivity
of the device so that it would ignore the electromagnetic "noise"
from the MRI, or turned it off.
Three people, or less than 1 percent, experienced a
complication; specifically, the device reset itself during the MRI,
meaning that the device reverted to default settings. Though
potentially serious, none of the patients was harmed when the
device reset itself.
The device was reprogrammed after the MRI, and no patients
needed to have the device replaced after the scan.
"It's becoming more and more recognized that MRI is so important and it's so frequently required by these patients who are generally older and have a lot of co-morbidities," said lead study author Dr. Saman Nazarian, a Johns Hopkins cardiac electrophysiologist and an assistant professor of medicine at the school of medicine. "We see so many patients that can really benefit from it. Now there are more and more studies like ours that show the risks of doing MRIs are actually pretty small."
During the MRI, a nurse monitored blood pressure,
electrocardiogram (heart rhythm) reading and other vital signs. The
nurse had experience in cardiac life support, such as doing CPR and
administering a defibrillator in case of cardiac arrest, and an
electrophysiologist was on hand in case of emergency.
Because of the extra resources needed, not every hospital will
be able to do MRIs on pacemaker/defibrillator patients, experts
"We don't think every hospital or MRI center can do this," Reynolds said. "It requires careful planning between radiologists and cardiologists and there are a lot of precautions. But we think if there is a truly compelling need for a pacemaker or defibrillator patient to have an MRI, there should be a little more openness to the concept than there is today."
Recently, manufacturers have developed heart devices that are
compatible with MRI, at least one of which is approved by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration.
MRIs are used to detect the size and location of cancerous
tumors and scarring in the heart, and are particularly useful for
brain and spinal cord imaging, Nazarian said. Because of the
MRI-safety concerns, physicians often use CT scans instead, which
in some situations don't give surgeons the information they need,
he said.
All told, some 700 John Hopkins patients with implanted heart
devices have undergone MRIs. "Our neurosurgeons won't operate on a
spine mass unless they have an MRI," Nazarian said.

The North Carolina Tar Heels heads back out on the road to face conference foe Georgia Tech to in yet another very important ACC match up. UNC is on the NCAA Tournament bubble and every game is vital to their post season lives.
The last time the Heels and Jackets faced off in late January Georgia Tech was able to keep things close. UNC went into half time with just an eight point lead but pulled away in the second half and won by 16. Reggie Bullock led the way with 17 points followed by P.J Hairston with 15. Since then the Yellow Jackets have played well going 4-3 with their three losses coming by a combined eight points.
Keys to Victory: Defense is the name of the game for Georgia Tech, the Yellow Jackets rank 27th in the nation giving up just 59 ppg on average this season. The Tar Heels were able to dictate the pace of the game and get out in transition forcing 19 GT turnovers and dominating the boards. Rebounding is huge this time around as the Jackets have improved immensely in that category since their last two meetings. Since the insertion of P.J. Hairston into the starting lineup the Heels have continued to rebound making it possible for the team to survive with four guards on the floor at once. Tech will have a size advantage inside with 6-8 Robert Carter and 6-11 Daniel Miller who both rebound the ball well.
Georgia Tech struggles to score the ball averaging only 64.1 ppg, they only have one player who averages double figures in scoring but they do have a couple very capable shooters in Daniel Miller and Kammeon Holsey what they don't have is three point threats, the challenge here will be matching up inside.
Notable Stats: UNC absolutely dominates GT in all statistical categories from top to bottom. Offensively the Yellow Jackets they rank no higher than 163rd in any category, the Heels outscore the Jackets by an average of 14.4 ppg (78.5-64.1). Neither team is very good at the charity stripe, this is a rare instance in which UNC actually shoots better at the line (65%-63.9%). Combined the Tar Heels and Yellow Jackets are 0-7 vs. Top 25 teams and just 1-11 vs. RPI Top 50.
Series: UNC leads, 62-24
Prediction: The Jackets strong half court defense could stun the Heels a bit and I expect this game to be a bit closer at half time than one might expect looking at the talent differential between these two teams. At the end of the day UNC should run over a team like Georgia Tech who cannot hang with them in the scoring column and do not have the talent to slow down the pace of the game nor the athletes to run with Carolina. UNC 70-GT 56

Not Ever - Rape Crisis Scotland has launched Scotlands first ever TV campaign aimed at tackling women-blaming attitudes to rape.
Wish this was showed everywhere in the world. I was just talking to my friend yesterday about how much I can't stand "She was asking for it." I can't really think of anything that is a dumber statement. It doesn't matter what she was wearing, how much she was drinking, how late she was out, how flirty she was being, if she was into it at first or not, it's never anybody else's fault besides the rapist's, period. You CAN'T ask for rape, that's how rape is defined, it's against your will, you don't ask for something to happen against your will, this should be common sense. If she was asking for it, she'd ask for it, and it'd be called SEX.
It's very simple, every human being (remember women are human beings too) should be able to go about their lives without being victimized, or being blamed for being victimized. Rape is an unconscionable act, and I know that some people will say "I'm not justifying rape, I'm just sayin a woman should blah blah blah." the fact is when you blame the victim, you are justifying the crime, you validate rape, and you help create a culture where it's okay for someone to do whatever they want to a woman because a man isn't held accountable for their actions. You help create a culture where it's okay sometimes to rape under certain circumstances. Besides, it's just massively inhuman to feel anything but sympathy for someone that has had that happen to them, and anger towards the aggressor. It's never okay. You have to understand this.
If you agree, don't fall into the logic that "you can't change people's minds", because ideas in fact are contagious. Say something, not just on tumblr. If you hear a friend victim blaming you don't have to be all confrontational about it, just be like "Well I don't about that, it's never the victim's fault." You'll be surprised how easy it is to change someone's mind when you're calm and rational and you're not arguing, yelling, insulting, or shaming them.

My Bodybuilding Experience so far
Virtually every muscle man that I've ever fulfilled considers themselves "Hardcore" or the most committed, well-informed, or toughest training sportsman in the fitness centre. Within the twenty years I have invested in the athletics I've been requested many times what does it truly take to reach your goals in the athletics? My response might shock you but I'd like to tell you it's a query everyone needs to ask themselves. What's more is the response you give yourself reveals whether you're a Genuine Bodybuilder or Yet another Wannabee!
Most scientific researchers, mags, and rival's are fast to level to genetic science as the determining variable. While on the area there appears to be some reality to this when somebody appears deeper to the athletics this isn't always true. In reality in every competition I have actually competed in, or observed I've seldom seen the show is won by the person with the best genetics.
I inquired my pal, renowned bodybuilding trainer Scott Abel the sam e question about what he considers makes a real bodybuilder effective, and Scott's response was rather fast. He summed it up in one single word… "Heart".
Now Scott has coached over 200 named victors on all degrees from hobbyists' right up to Olympia competitors including myself to some National Title together with an arrival to the Mr. Universe competition. He's also had the chance to work using the broadest selection of styles, genetic science, and psychological aptitudes therefore his view carries lots of weight.
I have a tendency to agree with Scott. From my own, personal expertise training a large number of muscle builders across the world I believe the actual successes are constantly the men/gals who comprehend that strength training has a lot more to do what's heading on in the head than other things.
Winning Comes In Several Types
Achievement and winning come in lots of types and so a lot of people equate a medallion or a title with achievement. Considering how lots of the most notable recreational and professional bodybuilders on the planet have serious health conditions and somewhat disorderly private lives it's difficult to equate success using their expert status or their drug-bloated bodies. Nevertheless, there are a small number of professionals who embody the ideals of authentic bodybuilding but they're definitely few and far between.
Of program, you've got a myriad of men/gals in the fitness centre creating a host of factors why they have adopted through on their coaching agenda, n't caught using their diet, and just not made the increases they want. Although both instances represent reverse ends of the intense; everybody fits someplace in between and most are quit asking the question… What makes a "Real Bodybuilder?"
While everyone else needs to establish the solution for himself, my own definition of Authentic Bodybuilding is somewhat different than "The Hardcore" Variant described in the very best Magazines. Although at one time I aspired to end up like the "gargantuan" people who grace the pages of the mags, I had a change of heart once I attained the Nationwide Championship Degree. Here's why.
Drug LOADED Anaerobic exercise - The Fast-Track to Self Destruction
You see I understood virtually the whole competitive body-building scene had virtually nothing related to "Genuine Bodybuilding". In reality it was similar to body destruction. A lot of these jocks I used to be competing with and against, had become consumed by the urge to build huge muscles and resorted to utilizing substantial number of medications that ruined their wellness. They had been built by them in the expense of their wellness together with the private lives, while their physiques and muscles are remarkable.
Personally, I consider this to be a mental illness of ailment just like anorexia, or obsessive compulsive disorder and even some shrinks have labeled the illness "Muscle Dysmorphia". Many "hard-core pornography" muscle builders have gotten so obsessed with contests, muscle size, body-fat amounts, diet plans, etc. that every other facet of these lives has shrunk smaller subsequently their testicles on a-10 year cycle.
I am aware how this dysfunctional psych can restrict one's existence because for 10 years I took place that route. Luckily, I turned the corner and noticed "the light" therefore to talk, and understood that there is a lot more alive than the usual 20-inch arm. I recognize in what way the pressures of fit superiority lead some jocks to show to drug use. I'm not condoning the action yet I only understand how jocks rationalize drug use and get captured in the "machine" of high-performance sports.
Even though it appears things are getting worse in the fit world compared to better with all the rise in quantity of high-profile athletes screening positive for drug-use; I consider the higher recognition of what's happening in athletics will gradually shift the length of sport, including what I contact the reunite to Correct Bodybuilding.
Don't Perform Russian Roulette By means of Your Health
Now what's even crazier than getting drugs for fit performance, is the absolute quantity of people, using bodybuilding drugs believing it shortcut route a remarkable body. Multitudinous lots of young men as well as girls in body sculpting are re sorting to any variety of drugs to improve their look.
These misguided people who regularly buy these drugs in the underground market from "suspicious sources," are enjoying Russian roulette by using their wellness. Frequently these drugs are counterfeit, veterinary surgeon, or "house made" medications not meant for human intake.
Several men/girls delusively consider they're going to quit taking drugs after they add that additional inch for their arms or drop that next percent of fat. Once they prevent the medications, the muscles are gone, the fat returns, plus they start searching for the following "fix". This places a vicious spiral of enslavement to the medications, as the person has automatically linked drugs to some better physique and established a reliance to them to increase the aesthetic appearance of the body.
What's worse is that actually cycle of medicines damages the fragile equilibrium inside the body's bio-chemistry, producing it more difficult to enhance, along with setting oneself up for troubles in the foreseeable future. One simply has overly go through the speed of leading professional and recreational bodybuilders that are perishing prematurely or getting serious disorder to exemplify the actual expense of short sighted thinking.
Real bodybuilding is all about self improvement. Building muscles, shedding body fat, and shaping or defining the body-build, are more about conveying one's essence than an complete results.
Everybody's perfect physique is a bit different and the only real judge that issues is the one seeking back at you in the mirror. Interestingly, what one finds in the mirror has a lot more related to the plan in one's head compared to authentic-picture reflected in the mirror.
When Athletics Becomes Art
I think that any time a human interest reaches its greatest type it becomes artwork. Artwork transcends limits, equally personal and cultural, and can't be explained by the original linear types of considering popularized by conventional culture. Names, measuring, awards, as well as societal approval don't reveal one's internal journey or individual expression and experience.
Definitions or beliefsystems don't have any inherent significance apart from what's ascribed to them by different social teams. Interestingly, each social team will ascribe an incredibly distinct value on any particular area, and every group has a tendency to consider that its view is the right one.
Artwork transcends all of the typical descriptions and expresses a sensation or an emotion which is hard to contextualize with phrases. It really is this essence that produces artwork fascinating. Regularly times a specific competence in the message is critical to totally understand the expertise. Put simply, the more somebody becomes comfortable having a topic, in this instance bodybuilding, the more you can understand, flair, greatness, or the arty.
Observing Tom Platz blast out 20-plus repetitions with 500 lbs goes beyond bodily achievement. The procedure becomes artwork. Another example would have been a soccer receiver diving through the air, to catch a move with a single hand, in between two defenders, while concurrently pulling both toes before traveling out of bounds. These minutes or occasions go way past the physical accomplishments or quantitative description.
These "defining moments" are what millions of spectators see for day-to-day in athletics. The occasion is actually a phase that presents a chance for the sportsman to transcend the standard definitions in their preferred sport. To be honest, in purchase for an athlete to access the "sport promised land", or at least the high spot reel, years of training, failures, unseen seconds, triumphs, and defeats have all been part & parcel to the "defining moment".
What exactly is it that shoves anyone to "be all-they can be"? What's the "X factor" that drives individuals to break preceding limitations of yesteryear? While it's difficult to contextualize the gist of what makes a man a genuine bodybuilder, one simply needs to examine the Special Olympics to get a mastery of the distinction between actual sportsmans vs. "wannabee" pretenders.
The Specific Olympians: The Greatest Case of Fit Nature
The jocks who compete in the Special Olympics do therefore having a spirit that in lots of manners presents the greatest ideals of athleticism. Although these bodily and emotionally challenged people might not split world records, or seem to the front-page of the sports area of the paper, they exemplify the ability of the human spirit. These outstanding people compete using an innocence, persistence, and devotion that encourage everyone else and anyone. It's this nature that comes from within that is the key to personal achievement and propels each individual to greatness.
"Wannabee's" execute tasks for the glory, the stature, or for narcissistic satisfaction. Occasionally these activities show from a low self-respect. I can't inform you the number of 250pounds bodybuilders I've met who "believed they were little", or how several stunningly lovely fitness girls whine that they're "too fat". To me these jocks symbolize the worst in the athletics, and project a damaging image to the true sportsmans (body builders) who work-day in and day-out, to only enhance the physical expression of the Self.
Wannabee's strut round the gymnasiums like peacocks, they make justifications because of their own defects, pay the achievements of the others and exaggerate their particular achievements. In other phrases they say "I am a "muscle man" or "I'm Hardcore" and so on but their notions of self-picture is wholly defined by the things they see in the mirror or what the size reads. Usually the self-picture of Wannabee's edges on illusion and are tremendously distorted.
When you allow anything determine you, whether it's your occupation, your athletics, or a connection, you're able to wager there is a "wannabee" or distorted belief-system that can consistently result in difficulties at some time in the near future. Regularly times it has a crash to the base of society with relatively painful results for all these people to encounter a "Reality Check".
Self-Reformation is The Basis of Actual Bodybuilding
The actual bodybuilder understands that Strength training is some thing that they do, maybe not a thing that they are. While the 2nd opens up the probability of a larger Self or broader definition on one's Self, there's a huge difference between both pictures of self because oneself is limited by the first definition or what one can be.
The basis of Actual Bodybuilding is just the quest of self improvement through physical action that improves the development and role of the bodily body. This pursuit can cause a knowledge of the inner or delicate workings of one's own existence. I believe Bill Pearl has summed it up better than other people in the name of his best selling bodybuilding publication "Keys to the Internal Universe".
This example will be used by me, to help exemplify my purpose from a more intense view. Some muscle men come to me and say I am coaching my legs as tough as can but I'm not puking from sets. Are you able to show me how you can train so difficult that I puke?
Such a mindset does remain inside body sculpting, while this seems silly. Vomiting from an established is usually times seen as a badge of honour or welcome accomplishment in the "Bodybuilding Brotherhood". Such a attitude is what has held the wonderful power of strength training from most people and changed a good type of self expression right into a "narcissistic, self absorbed, anti-social, cult-like, behaviour relegated to the "lunatic fringe".
Numerous businesses create advertisements around this conduct by glorifying hurting, anguish, and exemplifying vision of a 250lb guy standing above a pail or a pool of vomit on the ground. While most people in society could be horrified or disgusted by this type of image, it is embraced by many in the bodybuilding world, determining greatness, or accomplishment with all the procedure for vomit.
As weird as it seems, the above mentioned scenario is illustrative of the way the action is oftentimes mixed up with all the intent of the person. This can be a really narrow line of consciousness but an incredibly significant one to comprehend it 1's bodybuilding quests can be crowned with achievement.
Heart is where some one presses themselves to the limitations of the physical being. Any man; often who examines themselves, with weight-training to boost their physique, is a genuine bodybuilder. Actual Bodybuilding requires heart plus it really has nothing regarding how large someone is, how significantly they bench, or how several titles they've won.
Actual bodybuilding is concerning the trip of self.
It's a means to communicate oneself while enhancing your wellness, your knowledge, and also your self esteem. Genuine bodybuilding helps you to synchronize the Body , Brain , and Soul link and improves every part of one's lifestyle. It's a fantastic instrument for self -enhancement and self discovery. After having a very long time of weightlifting you can nonetheless learn some thing new about your self as well as you can nevertheless enhance.

Security Basics
mailing list archives
Without RSPAN, the only way I can think of doing it would be to connect ALL
of the switches directly to the monitoring machine (with multiple NICs).
You don't want to loop one switches's mirror back to the other's ports. In
addition, if the mirror ports are even close to saturated with traffic, a
hub will introduce collissions and bog down the switch (and likely
eventually force it to drop data or turn off the mirroring).
I'm thinking you might be able to impliment a "routing gateway" in front of
your monitoring station... with a machine acting as a router to forward all
of the packets from every segment on to a single segment without allowing
any traffic loops. I'm thinking it might be possible to configure a
multiport hardware router to do this, but I can't see that being the most
economical means.
Careful with network loops. They're pesky and can be very hard to trace.

Sleep's vital role for memory revealed
Researchers have claimed that infants who nap are better able to apply lessons learned to new skills, while preschoolers are better able to retain learned knowledge after napping.
Rebecca Gomez of the University of Arizona said that sleep plays a crucial role in learning from early in development.
A growing body of research shows how memories become reactivated during sleep, and new work is shedding light on exactly when and how memories get stored and reactivated.
In Gomez's new work, she and he team are examining how young children can recognize instances similar, but not identical, to something they have learned and apply it to a new situation - so-called generalization. Examples in language include the ability to recognize the letter "A" in different types of font, understanding a word regardless of who is speaking it, or recognizing a grammatical pattern in a sentence never before heard.
In one of her new studies, Gomez played an artificial "training language" over loudspeakers to infants 12 months old who were playing. They then tested whether the infants recognized novel vocabulary after either taking a nap or being awake.
To create the artificial languages in her studies, Gomez mimics structure in natural language that may be useful in language learning. For instance, nouns and verbs have subtly different sound patterns in many languages.
Gomez's team is also investigating the role of naps for preschoolers who are learning words. "Infants who nap soon after learning are able to generalize after sleep but not after a similar interval of normal waking time," she says.
"Preschoolers with more mature memory structures do not appear to form generalizations during sleep; however, naps appear to be necessary for retaining a generalization they form before a nap," she added.

Yes, the Miami Dolphins have 11 draft picks to use this coming April. They only "have" to use to two. The supplemental picks in rounds 4 and 7. The rest they are free to trade.
While 11 is a big number and something that the Dolphins' GM Jeff Ireland has said is part of his plan, according to a source I spoke with, Ireland isn't likely to draft 11 players but instead between 8 and 9. Which if true means the team has intentions to trade up. Somewhere.
Ireland traded up two years ago to draft RB Daniel Thomas and has moved down twice in the first round. The question is will they attempt to move up this year to acquire a player in the top of the first round? Ireland needs a top playmaker to come out of this draft. He has added the speedy Mike Wallace but outside of that his offensive off-season has not been anything special.
Many seem to point to the Dolphins interest in LT. Eric Fisher and Lane Johnson have been rumored as drawing a lot of interest from Miami but while LT is a major position of need, Ireland's entire off-season has not been a normal practice. Ireland told a group of season ticket holders VIA a teleconference that he has addressed the WR position and still has the draft. While it could be a smoke screen, the Dolphins still lack some elements of firepower on offense. Even with the additions of Wallace and Keller.
Most glaring to me is the TE position where Keller is coming off an injured season and behind him are two guys who haven't played a full game and another who is better as a flex option than a true TE. The Dolphins are reportedly interested in Gavin Escobar of San Diego State but little has been rumored about any interest in Tyler Eiffert or Zac Ertz.
Earlier today it was reported that the Dolphins will play host to Notre Dame LB Manti Te'o, a player not likely to be a serious target unless he falls into round two or the Dolphins come away impressed enough to think about options to move up. The Dolphins could play this role very well.
What would Dolphins fans think if the Dolphins used their 12th pick on say a top edge pass rusher and then, should a guy like Tyler Eiffert fall to the mid-20's move up from round 2 to take him as well. The Dolphins could trade their first or their 2nd pick in round 2 and an additional pick outside of round 2.
The team may also look to acquire the top remaining CB's on their boards. The issue that Ireland is going to have to face is that he has holes and the picks to do it but timing will be everything. Ireland has said that he drafts horizontal which means he puts the needs at each position and ranks the players at those positions rather than one long board with players ranked as BPA from top to bottom. A "vertical" drafting system.
Ireland could walk away from the first four rounds netting a left tackle, two corner-backs, a TE, offensive guard, and an edge pass rusher. With six picks before their first supplemental pick the Dolphins are poised to make a splash, and they will need to.

He caught me one night,
As I shivered with cold,
His words drew me forward,
As hearts stories were told.
Stories of love,
Of passions so pure,
Of lifes deep regrets,
Yet...his good humour endured.
Here was a man,
Complete and unending,
A man with deep talents,
A man worth befriending.
Now what he pulls forward,
With his poetic display,
Is the opening flowers,
In loves sweet bouquet.
A beautiful saviour,
Warm arms outspread,
My hearbeat grows stronger,
For my gift of Red.

With only one game left for the Toronto Raptors, the season can already be labeled as a success. At the end of last summer, most fans expected to be closer to the top of the lottery than they did to the top of the standings … and after a 6-12 start to the season, that was still the expectation.
Then everything changed on Dec. 8 when Masai Ujiri shipped Rudy Gay to the Sacramento Kings. Still, many anticipated that this was the beginning of Ujiri's dismantling of the roster. And if it wasn't for James Dolan vetoing a potential Kyle Lowry deal, this season would have likely ended incredibly different.
Instead, breakout years for Lowry and DeMar DeRozan, and the acquisition of the Four Kings (Patrick Patterson, Chuck Hayes, John Salmons, and Greivis Vasquez) gave the Raptors a competent bench.
The Raptors have clinched their second Atlantic Division title, already have the highest single-season win total in franchise history, and still have one game remaining. The third seed is still up for grabs, and their playoff opponent could be any of Washington Wizards, Charlotte Bobcats, or Brooklyn Nets.
Each of these teams poses a unique challenge to the Raptors. So the question is, what must the Raptors be aware of moving forward?

Vegans don't give a flying fuck about your "diet." We don't turn to other vegans and say, "hey, maybe you should lay off the french fries." Because you now what? That's none of our fucking business.
But when your habits contribute to the death of over 150 billion sentient, feeling, conscious creatures each year, you can bet your ass we'll have something to say about it. And no, that doesn't mean we're forming prayer circles around the deli section, or slapping burgers out of your hands. It means we're exercising free speech to inform you of the impact of your decisions.
Your rights end when another's begin; a personal decision isn't personal when it directly affects someone else.
Oh, and no, plants are not sentient. They react to stimuli but lack the ability to give it connotation, but nice try.

c bailey .....have you ever used them for fixed blades ? I understand they make 2 sizes, one for target points and one for broadheads ,is that correct? if so,which size do you use? thanks
c bailey .....have you ever used them for fixed blades ? I understand they make 2 sizes, one for target points and one for broadheads ,is that correct? if so,which size do you use? thanks
They only make one size right now, but I believe they are working on a small diameter version specifically for target archery. Maybe they are finished with that. I don't think they will catch on as much for 3d, but I'm sure a few people will use them for target. There was a thread on archery talk about how a guy using fobs took 2nd place in the bowhunter class in Vegas. Not a huge deal, but I'd say that the idea of them being a joke has passed.
I use them for fixed blade broadheads, most recently the 4-blade, large diameter Grizztricks. They handle them nicely.
Nothing against the fob's but i have always liked the real vanes. It wouldn't feel like bowhunting if you had a hard peice of plastic at the knock of ur arrow.They might be ok with 3d, but i will stay with 4"duravanes or blazers.
Okay Im a fobbie and I think they are great I used to fletch all my arrows also and enjoyed doing it.When I first saw the Fobs I said uuugly and not for me but curiosity got the better of me and I tried them and after getting used to the different look I found them to my liking,nothing ground shaking but I felt I was more consistant and my broad heads flew nice. I used to be anal about foc of the arrow and asked the inventor (Paul)about this he responded FOBs know nothing about foc,not to worry. I never gave another thought to foc and any head I put on them flies great, really. I sold all my vanes and feathers and jigs I didnt use and just kept 1 Bitz in case FOBs come to an end. They are not for everyone but the way I got hooked on FOBs was just about the same way I switched from Mathews to Martin .After reading all the good hype on the Firecat I bought one without ever seeing one in person or shooting one and loved it first time I shot it. You dont know till you try.. and the customer service is like Martins Paul is hands on and right there to help...
They steer an arrow extremely well, especially in a high cross wind. Are they better than standard fetching? In some instances yes and others no.
I still use vanes most of the time, I just can't get past the look of an arrow with a FOB, they're ugly. Kinda of a silly reason not to shoot them I guess. They do offer outstanding accuracy and I wouldn't be afraid to use them on a hunt.
If i ever shot fobs i would makem look nice. I could make my arrow still look good. I always fletch with flo orange wrap and flo yello vanes with a yellow nock. All i would do is put a yellow fob on as the vanes and it still would look good. Or white crest and nock with pink fob. that would probly look good.
I shoot them with Slick Tricks and they fly great. Here's a couple pic's of my FOB's.
Here is a great review by Jason Blalazs back in 2006
I used to FOB all my shafts, as there are good points about the FOB and there are bad points about the FOB.
Target shooting you only want to use one arrow per spot target that your shooting at or you will blow these things up if you group your arrows. Paul has suggested to use a shoot thru mesh to your FOBs will drop off during penetration of the mesh. This also simulates what happens in the field when having a pass through on game. The FOB drops at the shot, and marks the spot where the game animal was standing.
No, you can not use a Whisker Biscuit rest while using the FOB, and for some this is a draw back. If you use Carbon Express Arrows that have the Bulldog Nok Collar, you can not use them.
There are some plus and minus issues when using FOB's:
I once shot an arrow in 18* Montana cold weather. My arrow shaft hit a small twig that I had not seen. The FOB hit the twig just right and shattered, on impact. This of course was address to Paul at Starflight and he replaced the damage FOB.
You can not use these to shoot thru your ground blind window mesh, as the FOB will drop off inside your ground blind.
On the plus side of things, I can only say that Todd Johnston shooting of the FOB's in a Montana cross wind are right on the money with just how these fly thru a cross wind. See the video at the http://www.starrflight.com
If you do decide to use the FOB, I would highly recomend a good visable arrow wrap for your shafts.
Pretty accurate in the right hands but uuuugly! 3 shots in the kill zone at 100 yds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F0-jKmvCCI

Inside Out | Forging Ahead
Every so often, a room seems stuck, with no clear way forward. This is often because the room is only partly decorated — usually with a lot of itty-bitty details that don't add up to much. The remedy is to start adding substantial pieces, with confidence.

Projects like these can seem a little daunting, even I was a little concerned and I've been doing foundation repair for quite some time now. But, if you just follow the instructions and ask for help if you need it, the results are well worthwhile. http://www.ramjack.com

My house is old and no crawl space. The center beam sits on rocks and my floor is pulling away from the walls. How do I fix that?
May 07, 8:34 PM [GMT -5]
I need to do this to a house that I am repairing.
The beams that the post is supporting in the house I want repaired are in the middle of the house and the post supports 2 beams not one as is shown in this demonstration for do it yourselfers. I've seen 2beams more commonly sit on one post as opposed to one post holding one beam. So I've gotta find more information than this site provides because it will be a bit trickier than just holding one beam in place at a time. Thanks for the info that you did supply as it does give a person an idea of what to expect when one is going to re & re a supporting post.
