Legendary Tennessee Women's Basketball Coach Pat Summitt to Step Down
Pat Summitt, one of the pioneers of women's basketball, is retiring as head coach of the University of Tennessee women's program.
Summitt, who has amassed 1,098 wins in 38 seasons at Tennessee en route to eight national championships, will be named head coach emeritus.
Holly Warlick, who has been an assistant for the Lady Volunteers for the last 27 years, will replace Summitt.
Summitt's decision to step aside comes less than one year after she announced she has early onset dementia.
Of her decision, Summitt said:
I've loved being the head coach at Tennessee for 38 years, but I recognize that the time has come to move into the future and to step into a new role. I support Holly Warlick being named the next head coach, and I want to help ensure the stability of the program going forward. I would like to emphasize that I fully intend to continue working as head coach emeritus, mentoring and teaching life skills to our players, and I will continue my active role as a spokesperson in the fight against Alzheimer's through the Pat Summitt Foundation Fund."
Summitt leaves behind a legacy of winning that is almost unparallelled. A seven-time NCAA Coach of the Year, she led the Lady Vols to 18 Final Four appearances, tying UCLA and North Carolina for tops among college teams. Those 18 trips to the Final Four are the most among all coaches and her eight national championships are the most, with the exception of the 10 won by John Wooden of UCLA.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1' Makes All of the Money and It's Still Not Enough
There's going to be a lot of blood and ink spilled across the internet on the subject of the opening weekend for 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.' Yes, the third film in the series did open significantly lower than its predecessors. Yes, there are definitely people at Lionsgate wringing their hands and trying to figure out why the film opened below expectations. And yet, that opening weekend is still massive. It's three day total is larger than most movies ever have a chance to make in their entire runs. So, let's have some perspective as we dive into this week's top 10.

One purchase leads to another
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 01-10-2014 - 8:21am
I must admitt...now I get it.
When I was first on the board, we had an old vehicle and a very old house. I didn't understand all the people in debt with credit cards. I had no desire to fix my old cars and house or buy things to make my house pretty.
Guess what I want to do now.....buy buy buy since we purchased the house and the scary part is, we aren't even in it until June or July. There is this home decor part of my grocery store and I visit it all the time looking for deals. I have a bin at the house for my new house treasures. I have found a bunch of new tea towels on clearance, a new shower curtain etc etc etc. I have never had a brand new kitchen and I will have more bathrooms now.
Plus....we bought a new tv at a boxing day sale. We have promised ourselves a new couch and love seat. We only have love seat right now we got for free along the way. Plus... I have never had 4 matching kitchen chairs and we will have an island that needs bar stools. One thing at a time!!!
Oh my this is going to be an expensive year.
Not to mention all the things I will need when we move in there I don't even know about yet.
Must sort out my wants and needs!!
I get it now, I get it. I must figure out how to do this without going bananas and getting into credit card debt. I do have points on my grocery card I wil try to get odds and ends with. I actually have a lot of points. Perhaps if I get groceries with it once I can afford the bar stools or something. I must think outside the box here. I just don't have the time to shop for this. I must have my sister in the city looking for things for me!
has anyone purchased new or just gotten a new house to them and how did you handle this new feeling?
|Fri, 01-10-2014 - 9:28am
|Fri, 01-10-2014 - 10:09am
I totally see where this can lead too....EASILY! But you have the right approach. Separate the wants from the needs. I'm sure you have already though of this, why not buy second hand, discount shops, or rummage sales this spring. Make you list and challenage yourself to really think about the purchase before you make it.
We are due a big bonus from hubby's job this spring. As you know we have put off maintenance issues on the house for a very long time. I have tackled a few, but the list is long and expensive. We are doing the same thing. We are putting together a list of the must do's, the can wait a while, and this can be done a lot cheaper if we approach it this way or that.
Think outside the box!
Best of luck!!!!
|Fri, 01-10-2014 - 5:52pm
I totally get it! Doesn't have to even be a new house or a move.
DH purchased some furniture that was delivered right before Christmas. Then you start looking at your end tables and lamps. Then you start looking at your dinning room table, microwave cart, etc. etc. Our new furniture takes up more room, so we lost the use of sentimental table of DH's. So, table goes into kitchen as a dining room table, but the chairs are not usable and our current ones don't match. We were wise enough not to run out and buy new chairs. Repurposed the shelf the microwave was on, but now microwave is on the counter. Is a new cart a need or a want, that's what I want to know!
We have held off purchasing anything else, but your eyes do start to wonder. Regardless if it is a need or a want. He is kind of kicking himself a bit on the furniture purchase, but it is what it is.
I will sometimes bring something home, and not open it and leave all the labels or tags on it. I may not have slept on it before making the purchase, but I will sleep on it before using (or wearing).
So, my advice is to keep receipts and don't open anything yet. Then when you do, you can do it in good conscience.

When we purchased this place, I knew we would need some money set aside. I included $10K on the purchase price/closing costs to decorate/set up. The square footage was double and I learned the value of organizing in the midst of selling the condo. Just $900 on that condo and we had a new floor and a place for everything. I said to DH, why didn't we LIVE like this instead of just doing it for show?? So I was determined to do that to the new place and live a neat & organized life. Well...2 kids later and it is a ongoing battle...but I save up, pick a room, set a plan, wait for deals and then do it top to bottom.
Right now DS2 doesn't even have a bed. We have a loft bed for DS1 and he sleeps under it. They both love the loft bed, we have decorated it and it has lights. But I just didn't feel right about my son being on the floor. So for $200 we are going to BUILD a bed (a modified bunk bed with storage), get a new mattress, paint the room AND make a fort & slide! Do we have the tools? Not really. Do either of us have wood working experience? Nope. But we've learned we can muddle through and figure it out. And we'll save a bundle of money now and every future project this experience teaches us :)
I would hold off on buying too much and just start saving the money you are spending. You never know what you REALLY need until you are there. Do look at free stuff on freecycle and craigslist, there really are treasures there!

I would rather eat the bowling shoes!!!!! [The Ballroom]
So where to begin...First off we were not expecting fine dining but with the hype and location we certainly expected more then what we got. I am not one to write reviews but felt this spot deserved it
We were a group of 10 so I expected at least one of us in the group to be less than thrilled about their food.
But first we had to get food!!!
Service was horrible. The waitress could not remember 3 drink orders even after writing them down.
The food took forever to come and the restaurant was empty.
Once there the food was sent out it was sent back. The orders were wrong and some were sent back only to be sent back a second time this time for being inedible.
The wings tasted like metal, the burger fell apart and left me dehydrated, the nachos were covered in unseasoned beef.
When the wings were sent back (a second time) we were met with distain instead of an apology. The waitress basically told us we were wrong and the manager did not apologies his exact words were "I want to get the kitchens side of the story"...what story? They were horrible and sent back. We were expecting "I'm sorry can I get you something else"? Instead we got attitude. But as I looked around at the empty restaurant I realized that when your rent is 100,000 bucks a month and you have no customers...your cranky!
The best part of the night was the overpriced bowling. Although pricier then say bowlerama it is fun for drinks and a game with friends. But if you are looking for a bite of lighter fare eat before you go...Jack Astors, Milestones Real Sports is a five star in comparison!!!
re: darlon
I have heard really bad things so far about the service. Mike Bullard was talking on the radio about how some people he knew went there to celebrate someone's birthday and how the service was really bad.
I know it is fairly new and all but they really need to sort out their service issues (and food issues according to what you posted above).
I was kind of disappointed when I missed out on the Fabfind offer but maybe for the better.... Although, like you said, fun for bowling/drinks... if they can bring the right drink order!
re: ylsf
You're lucky missed out on the fabfind offer. We tried to use it and it was a complete disaster. The Ballroom weekend managers were refusing to honor the vouchers for weekend matinee bowling (despite there being no such restriction). The Ballroom's own twitter account was actually pumping the no restriction deal the very day we were told there WAS a restriction.
The Ballroom seems to be claiming now they'll oh so graciously accept the vouchers for weekend bowling but we returned our fabfind deal in disgust.
Thanks for the warning. There is quite a bit of buzz about this place; I'm glad to not have to learn about it the hard way.
"The wings tasted like metal" - That's just scary.
re: graydyn
Check the menu www.theballroom.ca
This place has megaflop written all over it.
re: sumdumgoy
Seems like Sysco "boil the bag, open the bag, dump on plate, serve plate" stuff which many pubs use as a viable food model. If they can't execute that simple procedure then, yes, they do have a problem, but I don't see how the menu contents themselves scream "megaflop".
re: Pincus
There's Buddga Dog mini pogos on the menu which sound pretty awesome. Unless it's misleading branding it couldn't come from a Sysco truck.. But sounds like poor execution of the house ground burger if it fell apart.
re: abigllama
Good point, a couple of the things sound like maybe they are sourcing them from somewhere else, or maybe even making them there! (Naaaah.)
re: abigllama
They are buying the dogs, but not the artisanal toppings that are the charm of BD. I think the BD owners would shudder at the thought of French's on one of their dogs.
re: Pincus
At those prices the food had better be stunningly good or there will not be repeat business. No repeat business = Megaflop
re: sumdumgoy
Ah! I get it now. Some of the prices seem ok for the area (agreed, if the food is prepared well), but some, like the nachos example, seem to me like price gouging.
I'd rather go to the Bowlmor in Times Square and eat there after looking at their menu. From which prices are cleverly omitted...
re: Pincus
to be fair they have 2 sizes and prizes for nachos...regular at $14 and the mega big or whatever for the $28...
re: Pincus
This inputs are definitely not Sysco truck crud, and the exec chef is a guy with a good reputation. The fact that they don't seem to be able to do the ingredients justice (a report I've also heard from someone who knew the chef from a previous gig and was shaking his head in bafflement as he said it) is disappointing.
There was a lot of hope that this place was going to be a good gastropub with bowling, one hopes they can get it turned around while they still have a chance.
re: Pincus
Thanks Pincus for confirming what I've always suspected - "boil in the bag" food, - oh and "mechanivally separated chicken meat". I can elaborate on the latter based on my year in a slaughterhouse but I think Hounds wouldn't like to hear the nasty details!
I've been, and the place is terrible.
Drinks never came, food never came, and when some food did finally show up we were without cutlery.
$28 Nachos...need I say more.
They also offer the most claustrophobic bowling experience of a lifetime.
I will continue to never go here by choice, and strongly encourage my friends to avoid it like the plague.
re: 1sweetpea
$28 for nachos?? $45 per hour for bowling?? Yeesh, those are crazy prices.
Too bad, I was actually looking forward to this place for a fun night out. With all the money they've invested, maybe they'll get their act together and make some changes.
1sweetpea, belated thanks for your Windsor recs - in the end, we didn't stop there 'cuz the timing didn't work but did take you up on your Al-Ameer rec for Dearborn. Cheers!
re: peppermint pate
PP, I'm happy to hear it. I was a bit worried you'd stop into Vinnie's and be SOL on the pastries. I have only seen them the one time, though the owner says she makes them frequently, but not always, on weekends. I hope you enjoyed Al-Ameer. It isn't much to look at from the outside (or inside, for that matter), but the food's good. Next time, hit Slow's for gumbo, ribs or pulled pork.
re: 1sweetpea
Really enjoyed Al-Ameer, thanks - I posted a trip report on the Great Lakes board, if you're interested in hearing more. Okay, apologies for the sidebar everyone - back to the bowling alley reviews...
Aww, it makes me sad to hear this. I love a little drunken midnight bowling, and I was hoping this place would be awesome. (Though, I admit that that hope was tempered with with a well-developed sense of the futility of hoping that any place like this in that location could possibly be even good.)
So are there any bowling alleys in Toronto that do have good food? Or is it all kinda crap everywhere?
re: Jacquilynne
Thorncliffe bowlerama is fairly decent for drinks, cosmic bowling. The food is not great, but the pizzas are close to average delivery.
I'm utterly amazed that someone would try to do high end bowling as a venue. I thought curling would have been first.
re: Snarf
I did a work team event at the Thorncliffe bowling alley and everyone had a great time - it's genuine, and yeah, a bit corny, but that's part of its original 60's charm! We'd never been before and we all had a great night of beer drinking and bowling and many never knew they would be so good at bowling! I recommend it - sounds way better than this pseudo thing on John Street.
re: KitchenVoodoo
Wonder if this will be the same type of thing with ping pong instead of bowling, being just down the street, an upscale sporting experience for the young downtown crowd with disposable income to part ways with.
re: CBlake
Yes, I think it will be... like that ping pong episode on "Entourage". Flavour of the minute. Bimbos and Himbos need to do some original thinking about how to keep themselves entertained - instead of rehashing the mythical 50's pastimes of their Grandparents. How about a bit of history reading? Oh wait - too hard.
If you'd really like to try bowling, grab a buch of friends and take a taxi to Thorncliffe, it's the real deal and will appeal to the ironist in you!
re: Snarf
I went to Thornecliffe Bowlerama last week.
It's cheap, it's ghetto and it's 80s. It's like stepping back in time to a place where literally nothing has been touched for 30 years.
Best bet would be to grab some food at Bamiyan Kabob or Iqbals across the street and eat it there.
Bamiyan Kabob
62 Overlea Blvd, Toronto, ON M4H1C4, CA
re: pakmode
Oh yeah! Exactly my kind of evening! I loved the retro feel of the Bowlerama, and those kebabs from Bamiyan can't be beat!
I've had a similar experience...
I was at 'The Ballroom' about a month ago and wrote them up on it. I payed to much for the quantity I received (not to mention the quality) and the service was just horrendous! They missed simple instruction entirelyI It was only a table of 4, and I couldn't hear my friends talking because the music was much to loud. They're hanging like, seven, 800 watt speakers from the ceiling! C'mon, really?
The thing I hated most about 'The Ballroom' that night, was that they told us we were not going to be able to play a game. Why? No explanation. I wasn't planning on staying around anyways as I was tired, but for the people we met later downstairs (a birthday party of 10 - 14 of us in total), who did want to play, that was a big let down. They had booked the lane that day with no issues.
I won't be going back unless just for the lane and some drinks. The upstairs back-end looks like the headquarters of Facebook with a bunch of "popular" kids in skinny jeans, plad shirts, and skull candy headphones. Lest I mention how they threw their bags, jackets and scarves on the floor and played 3 hours of bachi ball...
Ugh get focused! Your clientele @ the bar were wearing business suits and drinking martini's!
re: pinkprimp
Oy, sorry about the bad suggestion pink.. this is the risk you take when you trust non-foodie friends for food-related recommendations....
re: pinkprimp
Had the same experience with emails. I emailed 3 times nad left 2 messages and still no callback for booking a corporate event. They will be losing a lot of money here.
re: fryerlover
"how much tip are you going to leave?" Ha! Priceless..
re: NoFixedAddress
Yeah. You can serve bland food and have rude grubby staff and still get 3/4 stars? Someone wants future advertising...
re: mindme
Well, to be fair, she liked most of the food. Still, with the service problems, surely it's more like 2/4 stars?!?
re: duckdown
Yeah, the space does look great. I just would find it hard to spend what they're asking for prime time bowling...maybe I'll just drop by some time for a pint and a nosh.
re: bringonthelbs
Well, now two newspaper critics (Star and Globe) have talked up the food, so maybe something has changed...
re: piccola
the food hasnt changed , its still awful, service sucks. i heard they are opening another place ,the chef is not capable of cooking food here , its fast food but made bad.
we tried to bowl they said it was all reserved no one showed up while we sat there 5 of us for 2 hours . wont be back bowlerama here we come
too bad a bowling alley with good food is a good concept
re: whyeat67
I was there last weekend, we used a voucher for the bowling and ordered some fries to split as we weren't really hungry. The fries literally took 30 minutes to come out. And they were just fries. Normal fries. Service across the board (bowling, food) was disorganized and confused. This is my second time there (we went once right when they opened) and I'm probably going to avoid it from now on. I agree with whyeat67 - good concept, terrible execution. I wouldn't be surprised if they closed this year.
re: ggom1
Wow they're grudgingly letting people use the FabFind vouchers on weekends now? Even after they claimed they were honoring the publicized deal (the one The Ballroom themselves tweeted about), I heard reports they were still telling people the FabFind voucher had weekend restrictions.
re: mindme
Grudgingly is a good word - first server we asked said he wasn't sure if we could use it, but didn't see why not - second one said they don't usually accept them on weekends but he'd check (the place was empty at this time) - he checked with a manager (owner?) and said they'd accept it this time.
I was surprised that the Globe review wasn't entirely negative. After waiting 30 minutes for fries, I'd be afraid to order anything more complex since at that rate, it might be hours before I see the food.
re: terrycar
I read that as a mixed review, and she certainly didn't like the service.
re: Pincus
True. The positives were directed towards the chef more so than the whole operation.
We were on a time crunch for a movie. Plans were to go to Khao San Road but it was rammed with a long wait, so ended up at with a patio table at The Ballroom. Remembered reading about the slow food and service after we'd ordered drinks so was a bit worried.
Server was friendly and made some rec's on the menu. We chose stuff that we assumed wouldn't take too long in case there was issues. We got an order of the pogos, nachos and lettuce wedges. The food came out about 15 minutes after we ordered it. The pogos were awesome with the Buddha Dogs and were my fave of the night. Nachos were solid and had some roasted corn on them which was a nice touch. Lettuce wedge was kind of meh as it was served with a sweet vinegarette which got old about half way through. But overall the food was good and would be happy to return.
Our server was freindly and was on top of things. We got in and out of there with two drinks each in about 45 minutes. So either we got lucky or some of the problems have been fixed there. Those pogos are officially a new guilty pleasure of mine.
re: abigllama
Went there with a work group the other day. Everyone enjoyed their meal.. The $12 Mojito was superb.
Fried pickles were not good at all (note it's my first time trying)
Service was very friendly if a little slow. IMHO the food is overpriced - but what I tried was definitely tasty.

Yes, I am really going there.
-clears throat-
Anyways, I am typically of the belief that if you are DPS and you die on a non- boss fight… it is your fault! Let's face it, DPSers- there is no excuse for it. If you're dying during a mob pull, you're not paying attention to what's going on around you.
So, lets pick out a few normal, every instance situations and weigh the details. And we, the Angry Healers who have to watch your health bar dwindle to nothingness, will determine whether or not your death is your fault- or ours.
If the DPS Dies, Its Their Own Damn Fault: When This Is and Isn't the Case
So, let's look at some common scenarios encountered in your typical instance/ Heroic/ raid:
1. Standing in the Fire- DPS's fault? You betcha. I'm sorry, it's the classic complaint of all raiders. This goes along with Void Zones. Don't stand in them. Don't stand near them if you've got a shitty machine and need to turn down your spell graphics to run WoW smoothly.
2. Running up to a mob and Pyroblast critting it for half of its life- DPS's fault? Hell yes. There is this thing. Its called aggro. If you hit the mob first, you will get the aggro the tank wants and die.
3. Letting a tank get aggro, but blowing all of your cooldowns to get that BIG CRIT to blow up your Recount and report repeatedly in party chat, only to pull threat- DPS's fault? If you do this, you should go stand in the fire. Seriously. No one cares about your Recount if you continuously pull threat. Scoring that BIG CRIT just to stroke your own e-peen is annoying at best. It gets you killed in my party- I do NOT heal fools like you.
4. Watching General Vezax launch a Shadow Crash at you… and not even bothering to move. DPS's fault? Fuck yeah. This goes for all forms of 'avoidable damage.' If it can be avoided, it should be, especially something as easy to dodge as Shadow Crash, or Void Reaver's Arcane Orbs. Its damage you are taking that's making me expend unnecessary amounts of mana to fix.
You know what?
DPS, the only time its not your fault is when you're taking damage that is unavoidable, like Gluth's Decimate, or Stinky's poison cloud attacks.
Other than that… be prepared to have it blamed on you.
That's it for this week, folks. Tune in again on Tuesday where I'll rant about something that I have yet to determine. Until then, stay angry, healers!

Now in its ninth year, the St. Luke's Hospital Healthy Woman Award honors local women who not only embody a healthy lifestyle, but also inspire others in the community to follow their lead.

To keep residents looking and feeling their best, The Gatesworth offers a wide variety of wellness services—ranging from health to beauty—to those who reside on the campus of the luxury retirement community.
Some people are blessed to work in a field they love for their entire lives, while others find that their calling changes as they advance in their professional life. And still there are those who find fulfillment in their hobbies, which can take center stage once the responsibilities of work have given way to retirement. We spoke with two women who found their calling only after many successful years in another profession.
Caring for an aging loved one can be a daunting task. And when that task becomes too difficult for family members, they often turn to a health-care provider. But how can a family determine the best type of long-term care for their relative?
Whether a husband and wife can spend their golden years living independently, or one spouse requires occasional or full-time assisted living or skilled nursing, the multiple levels of care across The Gatesworth campus keeps families together.

When 1-year-old Hailey was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in 2011, everything changed quickly for the little girl and her family, recalls her mother, Cass Tracy. "We found a lump on her arm a day before she turned 1, and when she had her 1-year checkup a couple of days later, we showed the doctor," Tracy recalls. "He had us keep an eye on it for a week. When we went back, it hadn't changed; but she had bruising on her back and legs, and also little red dots on her chest and neck."

Ah, the back-to-school season. It's time for new pencils and notepads for classes like philosophy, art, current events, literature and computer skills.

Pumping iron may be considered a younger person's activity, but in fact, maintaining muscle mass as we age is crucial to health and continued independence. That's why strength-training is an important part of an exercise routine for older adults.
There's more to health than just the physical, a reality that the staff at Friendship Village sees every day. "We have a widow here who was very sick and lonely, and her daughter was thinking, I'm going to lose Mom," recalls Friendship Village spokeswoman Joanna Jones-Raymond. "She moved her mom here from the Northeast; and now you'll see her sitting on the couch talking with eight friends, and walking around the lake every day—she's a different person. It's not just physical. It's the intellectual and spiritual fulfillment, all of it. You can see the difference."

Last fall, Bud Drennan was raking leaves in his yard when he took a step back and thought, Maybe I've had enough of this. The retired Merrill Lynch stock broker had lived in his house for 48 years, but had been there by himself since his wife succumbed to Alzheimer's seven years earlier. "Once I made up my mind, the question became, Do I want to buy a condo in Clayton? Or do I just want to make one leap?"
When asked about the Mari de Villa slogan, The Tradition Continues, president Fred Wiesehan explains in great detail the way the retirement community is focused on maintaining its long-established dedication. In doing so, the word that he continues to mention is 'care.'

Urinary Catheter Process Measures Improve in MI
"Possible differences between high and low performing hospitals might include varying levels of commitment from each institution to make this effort a high priority, or differential involvement of champions to support the effort," they wrote. "External forces influencing the decision to fully adopt safe processes may also play an important role, whether related to public reporting or financial incentives."
The authors acknowledged that their study had some design elements that may have biased the results. First, there was no control group and it may have been that more appropriate catheter use would have happened anyway, perhaps in response to the 2008 CMS policy to deny reimbursement for additional care required by hospital acquired infections.
Also, the authors wrote, the hospitals participating may have been more willing to initiate change in their urinary catheter practices than hospitals that chose not to participate.
Lastly, they cautioned they did not measure changes in rates of catheter-associated infections at these hospitals, only the process measures that logically would have led to a reduction.
In an invited commentary accompanying the article, Michelle Mourad, MD and Andrew Auerbach, MD, of the University of California San Francisco said many hospitals have found it difficult to overcome barriers. Those include lack of knowledge of appropriate urinary catheter use criteria, failure to notice that a catheter is in place especially when it was inserted elsewhere and failure to remove it when appropriate.
Despite the success of bedside placards, computer reminders and stop orders, "clinical implementation of these practices remains low," they wrote, adding that such incentives are used "in fewer than 1 in 10 U.S. hospitals."
They called for a greater emphasis on infection control interventions and better incentives for compliance, and especially in the appointment of a "champion" who is "focused on overcoming barriers to implementation."

rachel (3/4/2012 at 7:10 AM)
I care for a spinal cord injured male patient, and almost any contact with his penis causes a spontaneous erection, even routine perineal washing or adjusting the sheets. This causes difficulty [INVALID]ing a catheter, which causes discomfort for him, and concerns me. It took some time for me to be comfortable dealing with a a male with reflexive erections in general, but now I am concerned because I feel a lot more resistance [INVALID]ing a catheter into him than with most male patients, particularly during the last few inches – I'm assuming that this involves his prostate and/or urogenital diaphragm. Do you have any suggestions or tips? As he doesn't have normal sensation below his shoulders (C4-5 injury), I have considered many things, including manually inducing an orgasm to allow his penis to become flaccid, but I'm not sure that would be appropriate, or even helpful. I've tried waiting up to 15-20 minutes after [INVALID]ing the lidocaine gel, but the erections are quite persistent – Any ideas, suggestions, or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, rachel from ADULT DIAPERS

Urinary catheters were said to be appropriate for urinary tract obstruction, neurogenic bladder, urologic study or surgery on contiguous structures, sacral pressure ulcer (stage III or IV) with incontinence, and end of life care.

MASON CITY, IA – Feb. 19, 2010 - The North Iowa Area Community College John Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center (NIACC JPEC) has been selected as one of nine national finalists for the 2010 MetLife Foundation's Jobs for the Future Community College Excellence Award. A team of national experts and practitioners in the community college field selected NIACC and eight other finalists from a diverse and impressive pool of 29 semi-finalists out of the original 187 applicants. The organization will gather additional information during site visits to the finalists in the next two weeks, with a specific focus on evidence of impact, sustainability and replicability, among other issues.
"Through their site visit to NIACC, the MetLife Foundation will have the opportunity to meet with constituents, collaborators, users and supporters whose stories share the strength and successes of our programs which have been created as the result of 12 years of work and effort," Dr. Deb Derr, NIACC president, said.
"It is an honor that the extraordinary results of the NIACC JPEC that have been achieved since its inception are being recognized nationally," said Jamie T. Zanios, NIACC vice president of the JPEC and institutional advancement. "It's a far reaching success story that needs to be shared and 'duplicated' as a guide post for others regions to follow. And, this is all possible due to the vision and support from John G. Pappajohn through his help in creating the JPEC and for his ongoing support."

So, there you are… standing on the shore with your fishing rod in hand, poised and ready to cast your shiny new silver spoon into the water at a chunky bass you just spotted near a log. You cast at him, and cast at him, and cast at him. He wants nothing to do with your lure, gets tired of the harassment and decides to swim off towards the other end of the lake. Ugh!…

Whose Zander is Grander?
Fishing from a kayak is great fun. Even if the fish aren't biting, you are still kayaking. This light water craft gets one close to water, yet it is stable and stealthy. Some models even come equipped with a rudder and peddle capabilities so you can keep on casting. If you like kayaking, fish with teeth, and vowels, you should check out the 4th Hobie Fishing World Championship which takes place October 5-11. By besting…
Cut It Out.
Fishing is a great stress reliever. But it also causes stress: on your fishing line. This then, could lead to creating stress for the angler when the line breaks. Here are 3 ways to uses your senses to detect if the fishing line has been damaged and is weak. 1) Feel. Let the line slide between thumb and finger. Is it smooth or rough? If you are casting around rocks, check the line constantly and…
First Time Cooking Your Catch? 4 Things You Should Know!
You've had a great day of fishing with your family or friends and now you're all ready for a delectable dinner that includes your fresh catch. You can practically see it and taste it already… a nice white fillet that flakes at the touch of your fork and melts in your mouth. There's just one concern, it's your first attempt at cooking your catch and you don't want your main course to come out tasting…
Get Out There
Saturday, Sept. 27 has been designated "National Hunting and Fishing Day." If you are like me, you may be thinking, "Isn't every day a fishing and hunting day?" However, there are still a few people that have yet to experience the outdoors fully, and this day is a good reminder to get out there. There are numerous events scheduled around this date. New Hampshire held their Hunting and Fishing Day Celebration last week but other…
It's All Good
When my wife's 105 year old "Uncle" learned that she was accepted to graduate school at Iowa State University in the field of Fisheries, he shared these words of wisdom: "I prefer McDonald's fish sandwich over Burger King's fish sandwich. I think it's the bun." When people learn that I am a fisherman, they often ask what my favorite fish to eat is. Although I mainly practice catch and release, I like to eat fish…
How to Increase your Kids' Creativity in 30 Easy Casts
I enjoyed school. True, I enjoyed some subjects more than others, but I didn't enjoy the stress associated with learning. Getting good grades was always on my mind, and I got pretty stressed out. When my grades were bad I'd spend more time in the library, I would get extra help, and I would study with my friends. My approach back then was to work harder. In one class, nothing I tried worked. When mid…
How to Do the Perfect Cast
Goofy's perfect cast is one of the most memorable and talked about moments from A Goofy Movie. Goofy, the avid angler, teaches his son Max "the perfect cast" in preparation for their fishing trip at Lake Destiny. In addition to being, well, perfect, this cast saves Goofy's life AND is hip enough to impress Powerline at the end of the film. In tribute to this—the most magical animated cast technique ever—learn to do the perfect…
Need More Structure in Your Life?
Fishing is one of the life's greatest stress releases. And one of the best ways to catch a fish is to cast near aquatic structure. Sometimes this structure is visible above water such as stumps or boulders. Other times, it is located with the aid of electronic depth finders. Or maybe you find structure the old fashioned way, by accidentally snagging it. Many Oklahoma lakes mark submerged brush piles with buoys to help curb this.…
4 Unbelievable Ways Fishing Can Help You Get Fit
For those who think fishing is a passive sport that doesn't involve much beyond baiting a hook and making a cast, you may want to think again. Fishing is exercise and can help you build strength in a number of different ways. Keep in mind that any time you are on a boat, your muscles are continually working against the waves to stabilize your body. Here are four additional ways fishing can help you get…

Just in case you've not yet heard about this, the folks in Windsor have done us all a great service. The proceedings of all OSSA conferences from the very first to the most recent are now available online at the OSSA Conference Archive. Papers and commentaries are available for viewing and download. Search options are up-to-date too. For those of us who want to cite these papers in our work, this is an indispensable and easy-to-use resource that compares favorably with the ISSA Conference Archive maintained by Rozenberg Quarterly. Both are laudable additions to the online resources available for argumentation researchers.

The 1st International Workshop for Methodologies for Research on Legal Argumentation (MET-ARG)
December 10, 2014, Kraków, Poland at JURIX 2014 (The 27th International Conference on Legal Knowledge and Information Systems, http://conference.jurix.nl/2014/)
MET-ARG is held in conjunction with the CMNA 14 workshop (http://www.cmna.info/CMNA14) and is organized under auspices of the ArgDiaP organisation (http://argdiap.pl/)
The aim of the workshop is to provide a space for exchange of methodological ideas concerning the research on legal argumentation from three perspectives: AI and Law, argumentation theory and legal theory. Since a thorough discussion of scientific aims and adopted methodologies is needed in this field, our main motivation is to discuss some perspectives of cooperation and mutual inspiration among these three research areas in order to develop more effective, accurate and scientifically adequate theories and models of legal argumentation. This may lead to establishing of interdisciplinary research projects related to legal argumentation.
Since we intend to facilitate a vivid and fruitful discussion of these issues, we would like to call for participation in the workshop on behalf of the organizing committee.

i-mean 4 @ Warwick: Language and Impact
9-11 April, 2015
University of Warwick
The i-mean 4 conference will address the relationship between language and impact:
'Impact' has become a buzz word and is increasingly used as a criterion for decisions on research policy and research funding. The impact of linguistic research has been particularly visible in a number of areas including but not limited to language variation and change, language and politics, language policy and language use, language and identity (e.g. in relation to professional identity, gender, ethnicity or age), corporate and health care discourse, leadership and teamwork and linguistic vitality among others. The impact of the different epistemological and methodological approaches and the impact of the language of impact, however, are more rarely addressed.
I-mean 4 aims to take a critical approach to impact and examine: (more…)

Demos: Life in Common
Banff Research in Culture 2015 – Summer Research Residency
June 1, 2015 – June 19, 2015
Application deadline: December 10, 2014
The word demos names 'the people', and thus democracy is, at its most basic constitutive level, the shared power of people thinking and acting. Democracy is grounded upon the capacity of the people to narrate and decide the shape of collective life. But the 'democracy' we experience and live with today has devolved into practices of state sovereignty and governmentality, a society characterized by social and economic inequality, and an under-represented and disenfranchised electorate. And it seems, too, that hopes in technology as a mechanism that might yet create a new common ground have failed to achieve their promised ends.
Demos: Life in Common invites participants to consider the ways in which we constitute and experience collective life in this century. (more…)

New Journal: Eris: An International Journal of Argumentation and Debate
Posted in Announcements, Argumentation, CFP, Connections, Debate, Discussion, Rhetoric, tagged argumentation theory and practice, epistemology, Eris on October 22, 2014 | Leave a Comment »
From the Journal homepage:
In Greek mythology, Eris is the goddess of discord, strife, and quarrel. Aesop warned that Eris should be left undisturbed since combating Eris could cause it to intensify. However, Hesiod recognized Eris's second nature as a force of progress and improvement, the noble competition. Argumentation and debate can regulate Eris and prioritize its second positive nature, sometimes leading to the solution or dissolution of the dispute.
The purpose of Eris is to refine and reflect on theory and practice of argumentation and debate. It seeks to attract and promote theoretical, empirical, and educational contributions on argumentation and debate from several perspectives (philosophical, rhetorical, educational, psychological, among others) with a focus on both their function to regulate conflicts and disagreements and their epistemic function.
Therefore, we invite you to submit paper proposals for the next issues of Eris. Italian, English, French and Spanish papers will be accepted for peer review.
For paper guidelines, please check the website: Eris.

Palermo, 15-18th April 2015
The aim of this conference is to encourage an interdisciplinary investigation of the role of rhetoric and discursive processes in the realization of democracy and its eventual degenerations. In the contemporary debate on this topic, there seems to be a polarization between two different conceptions of democracy: the "deliberative" one and the "agonistic" one. The first one is related to the classical tradition that considers Habermas as its reference point. This conception emphasizes the role of rational deliberation as a means to produce a legitimate and binding consensus. Instead, the second one draws its inspiration from C. Schmitt, and considers conflict and disagreement as unavoidable conditions of democratic life. Despite their obvious differences, these two theoretical models have a conception of rhetoric in common that is subjected to, or at least separated from, the full exercise of argumentative rationality. Nevertheless, an interpretation of rhetoric that includes the logical-argumentative dimension in the rhetorical domain is possible. In this way, the recovery of rhetoric, considered both as a practice and as a theory of persuasive speech, may shed light on the role of discursive processes in building consensus, and thus might allow a revision of the dialectical tension between the pairs of concepts that the debate tends to focus on: normative/descriptive, rational/irrational, agreement/conflict. Starting from this theoretical framework, the organizers hope to receive papers with a theoretical or historical character that come from different disciplines and perspectives, including: rhetoric, philosophy of language, philosophy of politics, argumentation theory, sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, and political science.
- Luciano Canfora (University of Bari)
- Chantal Mouffe (University of Westminster)
- Paolo Virno (Universitày of Roma III)
The conference will be organized by EIKOS. International Research Group on Rhetoric and hosted by The Department of the Humanistic Sciences at the University of Palermo in cooperation with the International Center for Philosophical Research (CRF).
Conference Proceedings will be published in EPEKEINA. International Journal of Ontology. History and Critics, Vol. 7, n. 2/2016.

Powerwave Introduces Micro Twin 2100 Tower Mounted Amplifier Featuring Break-Through Compact Design, Along With Twin TMA 1800
3GSM WORLD CONGRESS, CANNES, France, Hall 2, Stand D48, Feb. 15, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Powerwave Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:PWAV), a leading source for end-to-end wireless infrastructure solutions, introduced its Micro Twin(tm) 2100 and its Twin TMA 1800 tower mounted amplifiers, here today at 3GSM World Congress, the mobile industry's premier event, taking place in Cannes, France Feb. 14-17. These next-generation tower-mounted amplifiers (TMAs) enable base stations to receive signals more clearly in a wider coverage area, and reduce handset transmitted power requirements. Benefits include improved network coverage and quality, increased data capacity and speed, and extended battery life for handsets. Featuring a break-though compact design, the Micro Twin 2100 is less than half the size of conventional designs, with a volume of only 1.4 liters. Compatible with most Node B systems, the Micro Twin 2100 consists of two full-band TMAs in one housing, which simplifies site acquisition and reduces visual impact. The compact design enables the Micro Twin 2100 to be placed next to the antenna, delivering a cutting-edge noise figure. Containing TMAs for both the main and diversity branch, the Micro Twin 2100 fits perfectly with cross-pole antennas, and features automatic current alarm fall back to support installations with current alarm supervision. For deployment in GSM1800 networks, Powerwave's Twin TMA-DD 1800 consists of two, full-band TMAs, with the same volume as one unit (2.9 liters), simplifying logistics and installation. The Twin TMA 1800 delivers increased network capacity and coverage in a compact form factor that reduces wind load and visual impact. "As a leading supplier of tower mounted amplifiers, Powerwave offers one of the industry's largest and most diverse offerings of amplifier systems for Cellular, PCS and 3G wireless networks, and has more than 600,000 TMAs deployed worldwide," said Ronald J. Buschur, President and Chief Executive Officer, Powerwave Technologies. "Our new Micro Twin 2100 and Twin TMA 1800 deliver both compact design and the power to optimize networks, providing benefits for both the network operator and consumers."
