YouSendIt Moves Focus from Send to Share
By Ben Kepes on March 6, 2012
One of the companies that has, until now, been left behind amidst all the attention given to the file collaboration and sharing vendors is YouSendIt. While the charismatic founders of Box and DropBox, Aaron Levie and Drew Houston respectively, articulate a vision of interconnectedness and the end of emailing files between collaborators, YouSendIt has quietly […]

Syncplicity moves to Document Lifecycle and Workflow
By Ben Kepes on November 15, 2011
I use a bunch of document and file synchronization, backup and collaboration tools. From SugarSync to Box.net, from Dropbox to Syncplicity I've pretty much used, and currently use, them all. One of the things that interests me from a business strategy perspective, is how companies that primarily sit in the backup and synchronization space manage […]

Bought vs. Sold (Why Jive is a dinosaur & Dropbox is the future)
By Chris Yeh on September 21, 2011
Both Dropbox and Jive are successful companies that are much in the news recently. Jive just filed its S1 for its IPO, while Dropbox raised its first major round of funding at a $4 billion valuation. What's most interesting to me is that they represent polar opposites in terms of business models. They illustrate the […]

The Lesson of Dropbox: Usage = Value
By Chris Yeh on August 14, 2011
Word on the street is that Dropbox is about to raise a major round of financing at a $5 billion+ valuation. While some will cry "Bubble!", I think there's a different lesson we can learn: Usage = Value. Let's face it–Dropbox isn't the most complicated business or technology. It's a relatively simple storage app that […]

Designing Terms Of Service Is As Important As Designing A Product

Dropbox revised their Terms of Service (TOS) over the long weekend. That triggered a flurry of activities on Twitter.

A lot of people concluded that there's nothing wrong in the new TOS and that people are simply overreacting. […]

Why No One Wants This Alibaba IPO More Than Yahoo!
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Alibaba, the best-known face of China's Internet, is ready to pounce on U.S. investors in what could be the biggest Chinese initial public offering ever.
After months of speculation, the Chinese online e-commerce giant finally revealed the IPO is coming to a U.S. stock exchange. Alot of the excitement comes from Alibaba being a huge and profitable company, with a charismatic leader and no direct competitor.
Perhaps no company is more ready for that IPO than Yahoo! (YHOO), which owns a 24% stake in Alibaba. In the coming weeks, Yahoo!'s shares could outperform its peers in anticipation of the IPO. What happens after the IPO is another matter because Yahoo! has to sell a significant portion of that stake. Over the past 52 weeks Yahoo!'s shares are up 67% but for the year to date they are down nearly 6%. Shares recently traded around $38.
Alibaba controls nearly 80% of China's e-commerce market, which makes it one of the biggest Internet companies of the world. It has essentially worked as a middleman between buyers and sellers.Although Alibaba is known for its business-to-business services, the company also owns dozens of other properties including email services, social media services and Alipay, which is akin to PayPal. It doesn't have any direct competitor in the U.S. because its business is essentially a blend of Amazon (AMZN), eBay (EBAY) PayPal and Google (GOOG). Alibaba on Thursday invested $251 million for a minority stake in the messaging app called Tango. To get an idea of how big Alibaba actually is, consider its two shopping Web sites, Taobao and Tmall. These two alone accounted for more 50% of all parcel deliveries in China. Last year, the two Web sites reported transaction volume of more than $160 billion, which is above and beyond what eBay or the retail behemoth Amazon have ever witnessed. In the previous quarter, Alibaba revenue climbed 51% to $1.78 billion from the same quarter a year earlier while net profits came in at $792 million. The company operated with a healthy profit margin of 44.6%. In short, Alibaba, unlike Amazon, is extremely profitable.

Let's admit it, taking notes in class or while reading is not typically a preferred activity! The thing is, it has to be done. If you follow the tips given in this site, you will become more effective and organized which will make note taking less of a chore. Who knows, you may even start to enjoy it!
Some problems a lot of people have with traditional methods of note taking, ie. outlining, are:
Keeping notes was always a source of frustration for me, especially the review process. You know how when you are in the class listening and everything makes sense? The you review your notes and NOTHING makes sense? Well my school years were mostly spent in that state of frustration.
Does this ever happen to you? Please say yes to make me feel better, ha ha!! But I am guessing that since you are here and reading this page that you have experienced at least some of the above problems.
Because I always disliked outlining and notes so much, it was hard for me to find a way to motivate my kids when it became apparent they also pretty much hated it as well.
Thus began my quest for a fun way to do this...if there was such a thing!
Note Taking CAN Be Interesting!
What I began to discover amazed me. I could not believe that there was so much information on the Internet about taking notes.
I also discovered that there are multiple ways of taking notes so that no matter what type of learner you are, there will be a system for you.
If traditional methods have not been successful for you then my first piece of advice is don't get held down by what you were taught in school if you were taught anything at all about how to take notes), unless, of course, whatever you were taught worked for you...then you should stick to it.
Here are a couple of blank samples of different techniques. The first one is a sample page that you would use for Cornell Notes. This is a great method that is very effective and helps tremendously with reviewing.
The second sample can be used in a variety of different ways, but is great for stories. Drawings are placed in the blank blocks on the left and explanations are dictated on the right. This is a great way to reinforce reading comprehension and to make sure inferences are being made and developed.
You Have The Power
What you need to understand is that you have the power to customize your notes to fit your learning style.
You can choose what system works for you and/or your child. Some methods of note taking are:
These are just a few and because there are so many options available, you will be absolutely sure to find a way that can work for you or your child.
I want to take a moment here to encourage you that not only can you find a way to make note taking successful, you will also be able to make it interesting and relevant.

Research Paper On EFFECTIVE ENGLISH LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT TEACHING STRATEGIES
When speaking of English language development, we are speaking about both English as a first language, as well as English as a second language among many students who require effective English language development and similarly effective teaching strategies. Effective English language development is also relevant for many adults as it is taught in this country, yet, for purposes of this discussion (literature review), this author is primarily concerned with K-12. As a kind of 'backdrop' for purposes of this literature review, and in the view of this author, it is important to qualify the target audience as reflected by effective English language development and teaching strategies, as they are numerous indeed. For many years, parents and teachers have been perplexed about youngsters who have dramatic learning strengths in some areas and equally dramatic learning weaknesses in others. These students appear to defy accurate labeling: are they gifted or learning-disabled? Finally, the debate has stopped, and educators are now recognizing these students as "twice-exceptional." Rather than trying to use evidence from their weak-le...

Think about your goals in the garden before you get started. You may want to add a vegetable patch, put out additional containers or plants, or improve the design of an area. "Think about what you did last year. For example, what perennials need to be divided this year so there is more space between them?" says Craig Jenkins-Sutton, President of Topiarius Urban Garden and Floral Design in Chicago, Illinois. "Make a checklist of all you want to accomplish."

Odd Musings
I tried watching the Perseids meteor shower Saturday night. It was too cloudy, so I only got to view a handful of meteorites. I craned my neck at the sky and after a few minutes began texting my Google Voice number. It's a good thing I didn't text anyone else, because my musings became very strange as the night progressed into morning. I edited a couple of my favorite ones.
No meteors yet.. Or worse place to browse. Shall I go back for the rum or am I sufficiently wrecked?
[For the record I had nearly two shots of rum.]
Do you know what life sounds like? It sounds like a whimper from a swollen heart full of love, life, and death.
I can just lay here. The empty sky, gracing me with its clarity, the wind dusting away the impurities of my thoughts.
The stars twinkling a gradient of lust to true understanding. While the moon undresses my pale heart with praise and pleasantries.
[I believe I'm the worlds slowest texter.]
I want to imagine him with my evening gaze. But that is not good enough for him. He'd rather exile me from his waking thought.
I used to think that for every thought he had of me I'd have one of him in return. But its all foolish.
He never thought of me that way. Or else he'd set me straight. But he did in a different way, by ignoring my soft eyes and lustful stares.
He was very clear in that regard. And likewise I shall remain strong and avoid him like the plague. Avoid this feeling of distrust for myself.
[More Rose Colored Lenses; Jaded Prescription material?]
I have been bitten by ants. It's ok. It's all very worth it right now.
[And... that's the rum talking.]
The Texas night glow is not the same without you.
[It really isn't.]
If at least in my solitude I can enjoy the blessings of this earth.
My heart sings in loneliness the love I hide but don't show too well.
Best star gazing night ever.
Then, I began going through a list of goals and dreams. I stayed out till three in the morning when I realized that I missed the warmth of my pillow.

Shayari for lovers
Shayari for lovers
Koi Nazar Bhi Uthay Us Pay To Dil Dharak Jata Hai . . . .
Main Us Shakhs Ko Chahta Hon Apni Aabru Ki Tarha
Jaa Bicher Ja, Magar Khayal Rahe,,,
Yu'n Na Ho,Umer Bhar Malaal Rahe..
Apni aankho me tujhko piroya mainey,…
tujhko paakar khud ko khoya mainey…
jab bhi usko talab thi Zara se paani ki…
daaman ko ansuon se bhigoya mainey…
sabz baharon ke daagh na lag jaye kahin..,
uski jism ko ishq se dhoya mainey…
yeh to meri kahani thi ab tum hi kaho…
kya paaya hai..kya tha boya mainey.
Mujh Say Itnay "Qareeb" ho Jao.
Udaas Shab Ki "Saleeb" ho Jao.
Meri Baanhon Ko Sonp Do Sab Kuch.
Meri Khatir "Ghareeb" Ho Jao.
Mujh Mein Utro Meray Lahu Ki Tarhan.
Meri Rooh Kay "Raqeeb" Ho Jao.
Tum Jo Chu Lo Toh Dard Ghat Jaye.
Aao Meray "Tabeeb" Ho Jao.
Kuch Na Bolo Magar Kaho Sab Kuch.
Aaj Aisay "Khateeb" Ho Jao
Aaj Saqi Sharaab Rehnay Do
Tishnagi K Azaab Rehnay Do
Ponch Dalo Na Aankh Se Kaajal
Kuch Tou Khanjar Pe Aab Rehnay Do
Tum Sanwaro Apni In Zulfon Ko
Meri Halat Kharab Rehnay Do
Chaand Badal Main Acha Lagta Hai

Father's day quotes
My father is a man like no other.
He gave me life, natured me,
taught me, dressed me,
fought for me, held me,
shouted at me, kessed me,
but most importantly loved me.
There are not enough words,
I can say to describe
just how important my father
was to me and what a powerful
influence he continues to be
I Love You Dad.
Dad, your guiding,
hand on my shoulder
will remain with me forever.
Happy Father's Day.
What you want to me I can not understand
Your that world that you say in my childhood I can not understand but
Now I am younger and I understand those
Words that you say me in the childhood
With out you I am a little man
You are make me strong in the every way of my life I love my papa
Happy father's day.
Train a Child In The Way He
Should Go, And When He Is Old
He Will Not turn From It

If the relationship of
father to son could
really be reduced to biology,
the whole earth would blaze
with the glory of fathers and sons.
Happy father's day.

Mothers Day Shayari
Ek hasti hai jo jaan hai meri,
Jo jaan se bhi badh kar shaan he meri,
Rab hukm de to kar du sajda use,
Kyun ki wo koi aur nahi
MAA hai meri…
Pyar karna koi tumse seekhe Pyar karana koi tumse seekhe
Tum mamta ki murat hi nahi,
Sab ke dil ka ek tukda ho
Main kehti hun Maa,
Tum hamesha aisi hi rehna.
When you feel you are alone in the crowd,
When you think No.1 can understand you,
When your love is rejected by others,
& when you hate your Life,
Just close your eyes, & see, her face who loves you
more than any 1 else,
who care for you in loneliness,
& dies when you cry.
She is no 1, but your sweet loving mother.
Love your mom first and always
Ek maa tab roti hai jab uska bacha roti nahi khata………
Aur ek maa tab roti hai jab uska beta usey roti nahi khilata…….
So respect our mom's…… MAA TUJHEY SALAM…
Dastaan mere laad payar ki bus Ik hasti ke gird goomti hai….. Payar jannat se is liye hai mujhe Yeh meri MAA k qadam choomti hai….." Happy Mothers Day
For the best mom who always had a smile for me I know we may be far apart right now, So here's a great big hug and kiss Happy Mother's Day.

We Must Protect Earth
Take Good care of your Earth
Earth Protect us
We must Protect it too
It's our duty
Mother Earth is highly Worth. Plant Trees, Make Garden and prove that you care for Mother Earth. Happy Earth Day.
So many things we can all do to take better care of our Earth.
One simple thing…use reusable shopping bags or sometimes a bag is not even needed.
Save a tree and keeps bags out of landfills!
What are you doing today to protect our mother earth?
ONE Conscious Action per day by everyone is enough.
As simple(powerful) as sending healing thoughts to the universe to heal our world,
during our daily prayers.
I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me. That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea. There is not any part of me that is alone and absolute except my mind, and we shall find that the mind has no existence by itself, it is only the glitter of the sun on the surfaces of the water.
If the earth does grow inhospitable toward human presence, it is primarily because we have lost our sense of courtesy toward the earth and its inhabitants.

By KAREN GARDNER
The Frederick News-Post
FREDERICK, Md. - For Susan Hanson, the gravel roads of Frederick County lead to a slower time and place.
The roads, which she compares to linear parks, are places where people often walk their dogs or ride their horses. Painters occasionally set up their easels in the middle of a gravel road. Photographers chase wildlife scenes.
The Frederick County Rural Roads Program is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year with a series of events to showcase the value of gravel roads.
Gravel roads were once the norm in Frederick County. Even in the 1970s, there were 400 miles of gravel roads in the county. Today, out of 1,300 miles of county-maintained roads, about 60 miles of gravel roads remain.
"I've always loved gravel roads," Hanson said. "I grew up in D.C. but went horseback riding in Potomac. Lots of places that are now huge roads were gravel back then."
Gravel roads make drivers slow down. In 35 years of living on Poffenberger Road, Hanson can't remember any wildlife being struck, much less any people.
Gravel roads are much safer for pedestrians and cyclists, she said. Cars and trucks can easily be heard as they roll through gravel, and they're traveling much more slowly. Cyclists and horseback riders can focus on scenery, not traffic.
"They are an incredible gem this county has," she said.
Yet, as old-fashioned as gravel roads are, there's a modern twist to one of them.
Hanson's road, Poffenberger Road, is part of an experiment, which goes to prove that even something as old school as a gravel road can get a boost from technology. Pennsylvania, which has 20,000 miles of unpaved roads, is home to the Penn State Center for Dirt and Gravel Roads Studies. The center has developed environmentally sensitive maintenance, or ESM, practices for unpaved roads and trails.
A few years ago, the Frederick County Commissioners decided to see if the Pennsylvania experts could give the county some tips on gravel road maintenance. They decided to experiment on a one-mile section of Poffenberger Road, a section that runs by Hanson's house.
Experts from the center recommended a special mixture of crushed limestone to cut down on dust and sediment runoff into streams. Using gravel from a Frederick County quarry, the experimental section of road was laid in June and July 2009. The result is a smoother gravel surface with better drainage, Hanson said.
The local project is called the driving surface aggregate, or DSA, demonstration project. DSA has its roots in the prime brook trout streams area of Pennsylvania. In those streams, the primary pollution was gravel, clay, dirt and other particulates that get mixed up into a gravel road, according to David Olney, project manager in the county's Office of Transportation Engineering.
Unlike most gravel, which has bits of clay in it, DSA is all stone, Olney said. "It's a specific mix of different sizes of stone," he said. "It looks like flour or dust, but under a microscope, it's jagged pieces of stone, fitted together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle." This means there are no gaps between the stones, which allows the material to compact better than traditional gravel.
It also results in much cleaner surroundings, according to Olney. The ESM roads have a better drainage system, which prevents runoff. There isn't the dust that often coats nearby vegetation, nor is there gravel runoff into nearby streams. Hanson said she has much less dust in her house since DSA was installed.
Although there were some kinks in the installation process, the DSA has been found to perform better than regular gravel and doesn't deteriorate as quickly, Olney said. The problem is, it's still pretty expensive. He estimated it would take 30 years to recoup the approximate $100,000-per-mile cost.
Pennsylvania, which uses the ESM practices for gravel roads throughout the state, has a different funding structure, using a portion of the gas tax to pay for the improvements. Also, many of Pennsylvania's gravel roads are in pristine forested areas, not agricultural areas as most of Frederick County's gravel roads are.
"It is a step in the right direction," he said. But the benefits do not outweigh the costs, so the DSA project likely won't be expanded in the near future.
In the 1990s, Frederick County's gravel roads were supposed to be covered with macadam or tar and chip, a material that is denser than gravel but not as smooth as asphalt. Hanson and a few others who lived along the county's rural roads weren't happy and asked the county to reconsider. The Frederick County Rural Roads Program was proposed in 1999 and approved in 2002.

5 Luxury Goods Stocks for Santa Claus Rally
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Luxury goods sales are proving resilient in an otherwise volatile market. With the holiday season in full swing, luxury goods stores are reporting explosive sales. This trend is expected to continue through the holiday season and into the New Year.
Bain & Company forecasts 18% growth for watches and jewelry sales in 2011 as consumers are increasingly migrating from unbranded luxury purchases to branded purchases. The firm forecasts 14% growth for brand-owned stores, which is 50% higher than the increase forecast for third-party retailers, and estimates that direct-owned boutiques now represent 30% of luxury sales worldwide.
The luxury good finds a good market in Middle East, as Chinese customers in Gulf have been ranked as the world's No.2 luxury customers behind Americans, according to consultancy Bain & Co. Emerging markets -- such as China, Brazil and the Middle East -- are transforming the luxury industry, with total sales in 2011 expected to top $265 billion. Euromonitor predicts the value of the luxury goods market in the UAE market to increase by 16% in 2011 to $2.31 billion.The World Luxury Association anticipates notable growth for luxury goods in emerging markets citing improved consumer spending power. China is likely to be the key driver with sales in the country expected to reach $14.6 billion in 2012. Based on average estimates of analysts polled by Bloomberg, these five stocks have potential upsides ranging from 15% to 65%, with average buy and average hold guidance of 63% and 34%, respectively.

First Glance 12L: Third Quarter 2011
The First Glance 12L provides a first look at the financial performance of 12th District banks each quarter. The latest report, subtitled "Positive Momentum Amid Challenging Banking Conditions" details various metrics that point to incrementally improving conditions among District banks. The average return on average assets remained weak at 0.52% in 3Q11, but this is the highest this metric has been in 14 quarters. Reduced provisions for loan losses drove much of the recent improvement, but core earnings rates also have improved modestly during the year. While further deterioration may still occur in CRE income property loan portfolios, overall asset quality metrics continue to improve with delinquency rates and net charge-off rates moderating. The percentage of banks rated CAMELS 3, 4, or 5 dropped further to 54% across the District from a peak of 60% a few quarters ago, while the percentage of banks with unsatisfactory consumer or CRA ratings has risen in recent quarters to 13% and 2.4% of all District banks respectively. The report again highlights a few "Banks Supervisors' Hot Topics": 1) Banks reducing ALLL, 2) Weak housing market & impact, 3) CRE income property loan quality and vulnerability, 4) Interest rate risk – lengthening of asset maturities, 5) Expansion into unfamiliar lending areas; and 6) Other areas of concern – European debt crisis, Ag lending, Capital planning.

These are very nice looking and good quality curtains. I chose the ivory/taupe and they look really lovely in both my master bedroom and the living room. They have a sophisticated enough look for the living room, yet a soft and elegant look in the bedroom. Highly recommend them for quality and appearance. Note: They are not sheer, but not entirely a privacy curtain either unless you bunch them fairly closely. I bought them as accents for the room, not to be "working" curtains.
These are very pretty panels but note that the blue has a bit of green tint to it and the taupe has a strong gold tint which happens to work for me. I haven't hung them yet but will consider adding another layer of liner since I plan to hang them in the bedroom.
Nice rich looking panels. They are very shiny so be warned if that is not what you are looking for. My only problem is that they are very wrinkled when you get them and I tried to iron them to get the wrinkles out but it didn't work. I will probably need some kind of steamer. Other than that, very nice looking.
Great quality for drapes in this price range. Using them in a condo we are trying to stage to help sell the place. I would put them in my home but would have to tell the wife a designer had them made special for us and they cost us a $1,000.00 or she wouldn't like them.
Just received the curtains today and put them up immediately. They will need to be steamed or ironed carefully but I will wait a couple of days to see how they hang out. The wrinkles are not to visible due to the bunching of all the panels. The color in the package was a blue teal (as best as I can describe it) but once hung up with the light coming in they are more blue. A nice light blue. They are very lightly lined but the light from outside comes through as stated in other reviews and brightens up our living room. The curtains are light and airy but not girly in feel or draping. The men out number the women 2 to 1 in our family and the curtains are just masculine enough for them but feminine enough for the women. I so far just love these and the light they let through. I am going to buy more panels for the dining room. You can get these at *** but there they are over $30 for one panel and with O you get two panels. If you are concerned about the color go to *** and see it in person. However the color, with the light behind it, becomes a truer blue. I haven't seen how the color does at night because it is only in the afternoon at this writing. For the price they can't be beat and the look is great!!!! Will recommend to friends and family and am going to buy 4 more panels
I bought these curtains for myself a while ago and my daughter fell in love with them, so I bought her 2 pair. She absolutely loves them and her room looks so nice now. I love Overstock and will order again from you. Good quality and good prices.
I bought these (2 pair) along with the *** ****** *** ***. They hung very easily and look perfect in the two windows I bought them for. Nice quality fabric. I am very satisfied with this purchase.
These curtains are very nice, a bit thin, but work well for my needs. Adds a pop of contemporary style to my living room
The curtains are ok and the color matches the picture but they have a bit a a shean to them and I don't care for that. They are not real thick. I would say they are worth the money but I just didn't love them onec I got them up.
The colors are perfect for my bedroom. I bought them to coordinate with the Madison Park Melanie comforter set. Nice quality. White lining. Great value.

Well I'm a few days shy of Saturday.
We were out building and enjoying a Fire pit instead of being inside.
Edgar Meyer has been one of my favorite musicians for quite some time. I was first introduced to him 20 some Years ago (Man I feel Old Saying That) by my room mate as we would listen to Hop Skip and Wobble after a night of tending bar at Proud Larrys in Oxford Mississippi watching the sun rise. And still to this day From Ankara to Izmir is one of my all time favorite melt away for just a few minutes songs, that sometimes I can forget and just loop it a few times.
Jerry Douglas, Russ Barenberg & Edgar Meyer – From Ankara to Izmir
b song – Edgar Meyer Bela Fleck
This will knock you off your seat. I cant put words to the likes of Bella Fleck and Edgar Playing together somehow I fall short of doing them justice.

Grantseeking requires persistence. With competitive grant programs, it is widely accepted that most grant applicants are not successful on their first try. Probably the single most important thing a grant applicant can do is profit from an unsuccessful grant proposal.
So what are the lessons to be learned from an unsuccessful application? Here are some of the most valuable lessons:
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is happy to announce that project reporting has succesfully been transitioned to Research.gov. This means that you will now log in to Research.gov to prepare and submit your final, annual, and interim NSF project reports. You will also continue to use Research.gov to submit your Project Outcomes Reports.
Research.gov is the modernization of Fastlane, providing the next generation of grants management capabilities for the research community. It provides easy access to research-related information and grants management services in one location. For more information about the transition of annual, final, and interim project reporting to Research.gov, visit the Project Report Informational Page or see Online Help.

Fantastic location right in the middle of town. The room and facilities were basic but very clean and good value for the price. Annoying that there was no access to the gym but there are plenty of other better things to do in Malaga!

This place is clean and comfortable; however, those looking for any sort of hostel atmosphere should search again. There is no opportunity at the accommodation to socialise with others; no common room etc. We weren't even given a map at check in! Thanks for letting us leave our bags during the day of check out though

Great location (in the very city center of the city) and cleanliness. Breakfast consists on coffe and toast, but it is more than enough for the money paid. The value for the money paid is more that excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Katelyn Fischer Earns Third CAC Weekly Honor
Monday, February 20, 2012
York, Pa. – Marymount University junior guard Katelyn Fischer picked up her third Capital Athletic Conference Women's Basketball Player of the Week accolade, as announced by the league office on Monday. She is the lone player to earn the league honor three times this season.
Fischer averaged 21.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.5 steals per game to lead the Saints to a 2-0 record on the week and a six-game winning-streak. She played in all 40 minutes of both games, shooting 50 percent from the floor, 42.9% from three-point range and 88.9% from the free throw line.
Opening the week with a series sweep over Frostburg State, Fischer scored 25 points to go with three rebounds and a pair of steals. She went 7-for-13 from the floor and nailed 3-of-6 shots from downtown.
Helping Marymount avenge an earlier season loss to Stevenson to close out the regular season, Fischer scored 18 points to go with five assists, three steals and three boards. She converted 16-of-18 shots from the free throw line.
Closing out the regular season 13-12 overall and 10-6 in CAC action, the Saints have posted six consecutive seasons with at least 10 CAC wins and 17 years overall.
Marymount returns to action on Tuesday as it hosts St. Mary's (Md.) in the opening round of the CAC Tournament. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. and fans can follow the action live by logging on to www.marymount.edu/athletics/wBasketball and selecting the "live stats" and "live video" links.

Dispute Resolution Center
Telephone: 503-526-2523 TTY/TDD
Fax: 503-526-3730
What is Mediation?
Mediation is a negotiation process where a neutral third party, a mediator, helps parties work together to resolve conflict. The mediator doesn't solve problems, but does help parties work together toward a mutually beneficial resolution. The parties have complete control throughout the process, jointly seeking the best possible resolution, while preserving important relationships. Because parties take responsibility for their own solutions, they are more likely to keep their agreements.
The Dispute Resolution Center does not handle disputes in which there is a pattern of violence or physical abuse between parties, when a party is impaired by drugs or alcohol, in cases where a person cannot adequately represent him or herself, where one party refuses to willingly participate, or where a party is unwilling to negotiate in good faith.

As your pregnancy progresses, you may develop aches and pains in your hips and pelvic area. This is a normal sign that your pelvic girdle is preparing for childbirth. Pregnancy hormones are relaxing your ligaments, loosening up your pelvic bones so they can shift and open for childbirth.
For pelvic girdle pain, you can use acupuncture or learn pelvic stabilizing exercises from a physical therapist. These exercises strengthen the muscles that support your pelvis. Both acupuncture and stabilizing exercises have been shown to reduce pelvic pain during pregnancy.1
To help manage pelvic and hip pain at home, try the following.

Nothing like a nod from Oscar to catapult someone back into the public eye. After 40 some years in the biz, Bridges picked up a well deserved Best Actor Award for his performance in Crazy Heart. Big in the 80's and mid 90's, he has made a lot of movies over the years. Now he isn't the headlinder in all of these but you can depend on Bridges' performances to be consistently good. Here are some of my favorites.
The Big Lebowski---from the weird and wonderful Coen brothers, this movie is good on so many levels. A cult classic, it is also just plain fun, and is the role that garnered him his nickname "the dude".
Arlington Place---from 1998 with Tim Robbins and Joan Cuscak, a solid pyschological thriller, with conspiracy overtones.
Seabiscuit---based during the depression, this tells the story of the real life racing horse of the same name. Also features Tobey Maguire and Chris Cooper.
The Last Picture Show from 1971. If you have never seen this you owe it to yourself to have a look. Set in a small Texas town in the 50's it is a gritty coming of age story---at times almost unbearably real. Lots of familiar faces in this one, including a very young Cybil Shepherd.
Iron Man--- in a supporting role to the headliner Robert Downey Jr. This movie is a real departure from the usual super hero genre and very watchable.
Men Who Stare At Goats. This movie is currently on order, so get your holds on now. With Ewan McGregor and George Clooney, it is quite hard to pigeon hole this one into a genre---but I do know that I found it quirky and entertaining.
We have others---follow this link to more Bridges

What do you say guys?
As an upcoming fashion model, I need to do something about my nose. Right now its the only thing that stands between me and my sense of purpose. What really scares me is the long down time that follows a nose job and the possible complications. I really cant take a risk of a rhinoplasty gone wrong. Heard about Dr. Jennifer Levine and her pre-surgery vitamin regime for quick recovery and want to know if its safe to go to her for a nose job. What do you say guys?
Can you post some pics so we can fully assess your issues?

FILE - This Dec. 6, 2012 file photo shows singer Kanye West, left, talks to his girlfriend Kim Kardashian before an NBA basketball game between the Miami Heat and the New York Knicks in Miami. As the tabloids speculated over whether or not Jessica Simpson was expecting her second baby and the media zeroed in on Kate Middleton's pregnancy, Kardashian admits it was nice to be away from the glare of the spotlight as she was in the early stages of her own pregnancy. Now that the word is out, 32-year-old Kardashian says her motherly instincts have made her pull back from being so open about her personal life. (AP Photo/Alan Diaz, file)
NEW YORK (AP) — As the tabloids speculated about whether Jessica Simpson is expecting again (she is) and the media zeroed in on Kate Middleton's acute morning sickness, Kim Kardashian says it was nice to be out of the media spotlight during the early stages of her pregnancy.
"I'm obviously so happy for them, but if anything I loved the privacy," the 32-year-old reality TV star said in an interview Wednesday.
That bit of privacy went out the window when Kardashian's boyfriend, Kanye West, revealed during a Dec. 30 concert in Atlantic City, N.J., that they are expecting their first child together.
Now that the word is out, Kardashian says her motherly instincts have made her pull back from being so open about her personal life.
"I think that definitely kicks in where you're like, 'OK, I have to go in protect mode,' and as ironic as it sounds, you live your life on a reality show but then when you grow up ... certain things change your life that make you want to be more private and this is definitely one of them."
The couple went public with their relationship in March.
Kardashian married NBA player Kris Humphries in August 2011 and their divorce is not finalized.
West rarely grants interviews, and the 35-year-old rapper is the ying to the Kardashian family's "out there" yang. Kardashian says she is somewhat influenced by West's approach.
"When you spend time with someone, you learn things from them, so I see what (his) views are in wanting to be private, so that's a choice we make together as a family just in how we're gonna raise our kid," she said. "... But my personal experience of having really open relationships on the show, I've done that, and for me I feel like I got really scrutinized when people didn't maybe understand my decisions at some point, so I feel like after that experience I've become more private more so than just like Kanye's views or anything."
Kardashian is due in July.
A new season of her reality show with her sister Kourtney, "Kourtney and Kim Take Miami," premieres Sunday on E! (9 p.m. EST).

Practical Science on Movement and Pain
Practical Science on Movement and Pain
if you are white you may have an issue with this. Frequently, Asian and African have longer leg tendons. This is why there are few Asians and Africans playing hockey, but who cares.
Do you have any evidence for the idea that whites have shorter tendons? I would be extremely surprised if whites raised in a squatting culture couldn't squat as well as blacks and asians. I understand that tendon length variation between individuals is predictive of running economy, jumping height, etc.
just hockey folklore
Haha. Hockey folklore. I missed your hockey reference in your first comment. I think there just might be some cultural factors there.
Fred Tully: "if you are white you may have an issue with this. Frequently, Asian and African have longer leg tendons. This is why there are few Asians and Africans playing hockey, but who cares."
ha funny, but speak for yourself Fred. I can do this no problem.
Thank you very much for this piece.
I am a Trainer and Instructor Eastside Seattle.
And am also an Exuberant Animal Trainer.
I am always having fun in classes going between the 90* exercise squat
and the socializing squat, I call it.
I have included your Article in my email out to clients this week.
Thanks again AWESOME
