Hi Dr. Lam,
First of all thank you very much for taking the time to create this forum!! I had Botox to my jawline on the 4th of September this year. So far I am quite pleased with the result. As you can see in attached photos, they are quite dramatic. One thing though that leaves me wondering, is that I have started now to noticed more and more that a hollow area is building up underneath my cheekbone. I wouldn't mind that so much if it looked like it does with other people but in my case it's a bit strange because I have this hollow area building up under my cheekbone so is that causing my actual cheeks to look bigger?
Because when you look at the after pictures you can see at the side of my face not only the cheekbones sticking out but also the actual cheeks underneath (that is the part I really dislike). I wonder what makes my cheeks stick out so much? I like the fact that my cheekbones are pronounced now but I don't like the lower part. Is that fat? I'd be surprised because I am really not overweight.
I thought a reason might be that my doctor injected the Botox quite high because, as you can see in my before picture, that is where the bulk of my masseter muscle was. You can literally see how the angle has moved down in the after pictures.
Anyway, I have a followup treatment in early January so I am wondering, do you think it would help this time to inject the Botox in the lower part of the muscle instead of in the higher part like last time? Would that help to make my lower face look more even?
Thank you so much in advance,
PS: Just in case you have trouble looking at my pictures, please try to right click on them and select "open image in new tab", it worked for me

Tax Reform
Americans are a hard-working bunch and should keep what they earn. Our ideas for tax reform reduce the burden of taxes while ensuring governments have the resources to focus on core responsibilities.
Part one of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged ends in despair, as the oil fields of entrepreneur Ellis Wyatt burst into flames. Wyatt Oil, once a successful business that created jobs and launched an economic Renaissance in the western United States, had fallen victim to stifling taxes and government regulation. No longer willing to surrender to bureaucrats, Wyatt abandons his once-thriving business.
An important driver of job growth is investment. Without investment, new businesses may not flourish or even see the light of day. And venture capital investment in technology start-ups is one of the highest-profile sources of new business births.
- Read more about Investing in Arizona: How the Legislature Can Get Arizona's Economy Moving Again by Reducing the Barriers to Investment and Job Creation
At least one Arizona city understands that the key to economic growth is more freedom and lower costs levied on businesses.
Tuesday's Wall Street Journal editorial page engaged in a bit of triumphalism. The editors showed that their 2003 predictions of where monetary policy was leading were better than those of Ben Bernanke. Bernanke's comments at a 2003 meeting of the Board of Governors make clear that lots of detailed knowledge can just as easily addle a brain as create clear thinking.
Whether proposed by Republicans or Democrats, tax increases cost jobs. And some taxes are even worse for employment than others. That's what a recent economic analysis of Arizona's proposed tax increases by the Beacon Hill Institute demonstrates.
A $1 billion sales tax increase would cost Arizona 14,400 private jobs. A $1 billion state income tax increase would cost even more jobs, about 26,000.
No later than June 30, Arizona's legislature and Governor Brewer have to agree on a budget for fiscal 2010 or the state government will shut down.
Every year, people and their income move between states. They move for a number of reasons, but there's ample evidence that cost of living and its relationship to tax burdens are a factor.
Since 2001, the federal tax code allowed business owners to write off more of the investment they make in their company each year and, today, businesses can write off 100 percent of the capital investments they made this year. But if Congress and the President don't act, that tax cut will end in January 2012. State policymakers, on the other hand, could offer a little certainty in their state income tax code by allowing businesses to immediately write-off on their taxes the full value of their new capital investments.
On November 10, 2011, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker keynoted the Goldwater Institute Annual Dinner.

Document Type Doctoral Thesis Author Masole, Trust Mbako firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-10102011-181618 Document Title Enhancing the quality of performance assessment in agriculture in Botswana schools Degree PhD Department Science, Mathematics and Technology Education Supervisor

- constructivism
- formative assessment

Date 2011-09-05 Availability unrestricted AbstractThe quality of education in Botswana is not yet up to standard as there has been emphasis on attainment of Universal Basic Education. Quality in education encompasses a number of factors such as the development of the relevant curriculum, improvement of teacher preparation, development of appropriate learning materials, and improving the methods of assessing pupils (Grisay & Mählck, 1991, cited in Kellaghan & Geaney, 2003). The quality of what is going on in the classroom is judged by the processes and outcomes that are defined qualitatively.
Assessment in Agriculture in Botswana senior schools comprises performance assessment and standardised paper-and-pencil tests. Performance assessment contributes only 20% (MoE&SD, 2001.p.6) yet it is allocated more time than paper-and-pencil tests. The aim of the study therefore was to understand and explore the characteristics and quality processes needed in the performance assessment of Agriculture Form Four students to ensure valid and reliable examinations in Botswana.
The study was guided by two research questions. The first research question was: How valid and reliable are the performance assessment processes in Botswana schools? This research question sought to understand how performance assessment was conducted in Botswana schools, and how it compared with the international practice. The second research question was: How can quality assurance processes be developed in order to produce valid and reliable marks for BGCSE Agriculture performance assessment? The intention was to develop quality processes for performance assessment in the context of Form Four Agriculture in Botswana, to ensure valid and reliable marks for certification.
A design research was employed in this study in which a baseline survey was conducted and based on the outcome, a quality assurance process was designed which included the development of standard tasks and assessment materials. During the baseline survey, teachers and school administrators completed a questionnaire and were also interviewed. Subsequently, prototypes of exemplar materials were developed iteratively in collaboration with practitioners and formatively evaluated. Feedback from evaluation was incorporated into the redesign and development of successive prototypes.
Findings from baseline survey revealed that the conduct of performance assessment in schools was not standardised, primarily due to the absence of assessment policy and procedures to guide its conduct. Implementation of performance assessment was done by teachers who had insufficient training, in large classes with inadequate resources and received very little support from supervisors both internally and externally. Despite all these, insufficient time was allocated for conducting performance assessment, resulting in teachers forming groups most of the time during the conduct of tasks and assigning a single mark for the group based on the quality of the group's product.
However, findings from the intervention study revealed that entrenching quality assurance processes in the system produced valid and reliable performance assessment marks for certification. The characteristics of a quality assurance system for implementation of performance assessment were the presence of an assessment policy; training and accrediting teachers to assess; an efficient internal and external monitoring system; the provision of adequate resources; applying multiple modes of assessment; and multiple rating of the students.

Nobody knows the answer to your question. Third date sex is very common, so don't beat yourself up about it. I think since you've initiated many of the dates and texting, you need to sit back and let him make an effort. Only then will know his interest or lack of interest. You like him so much that you're coming up with reasons why he's too busy to see you. You matter too. Why don't you think about what you want in an early dating relationship, and decide if he's good dating material or not. Do you want a phone call once a day, once every three days? Do you want to go on a date at least once a week? What would satisfy you? See if he's on the same page. If he's not, he's not compatible with you and it's best to move on. Many women accept the crumbs that are tossed to them by men who really don't know how to treat a woman, or the man can't admit that he's really not that into her, and is too cowardly to tell her.
Past behavior is a good predictor of future behavior. If he's never been in a long term relationship, then it's highly unlikely that he's going to change because you're the smartest, prettiest, nicest woman around. The problem is with him. Maybe he doesn't want to put in the daily effort of being in a relationship. Many guys are lazy and just want an occasional romp in the hay for their regular fix.
Think of yourself as the treasure. A man has to be worthy of you to stay in your life. If a guy only pays attention to you sporadically when he feels like it, and you accept that, then you need to work on your self esteem. In a mature, healthy relationship, most of the time you will feel content and the man in your life will make you feel like a priority. If you feel like you're on rocky ground, if you're ignored, if you're frustrated and upset a lot of the time, then it means the relationship is not right for you. Women cling to those statements at the beginning of a relationship that implies the guy wants her around for the future. "You'll meet my friend one day. We can go to this festival in the summer, etc." These statements don't mean much in the first 3 months of dating. If you get past the first 3 months, the real guy appears. Sometimes they appear earlier if it's negative stuff. Let him make the effort for the next month and see how he does. If he doesn't set up dates with you and doesn't regularly communicate with you, tell him you expect more and that you're moving on. Good luck.

No. I wouldn't ask him at this point. Basically, a person should be showing you where it's going by his actions. I would make sure the date involves doing something fun instead of going to your place or his and just having sex. Don't get into a pattern where you are just meeting for sex. He should be wanting to get to know you and enjoy your company without having sex every time you hang out.
Like I said, let him make all the effort for a while. You will start to see if he is making you a priority. If he makes the effort and you last another month and a half, at that point, if he hasn't asked you to be exclusive, bring up that subject with him. As for me, I wouldn't really be comfortable having sex with someone unless we agreed to be exclusive. I don't want to be giving my body to someone who decides that he wants to date other women too. So if you feel strongly about wanting to know where it's going at this point because you don't want to have sex with someone who is free to date others, then you do have the right to ask. Just be prepared to walk away if you're not happy with the answer. Remember that actions speak louder than words. A man will always make time for you if you are a priority. He has time to go to the bathroom. He has time to eat a meal. He has time to pick up the phone. And if a man is so busy that he can't find the time, there are attractive, kind men out there that do. It's up to you to find him and don't stop until you do. It's worth the effort.
|Fri, 05-31-2013 - 11:32am
Oh please do not ask him that question. If you've only had a few dates, how does he know where it's headed anyway? At this point, you are getting to know each other (I know you knew each other from work, but getting to know each other on a personal level to see if you are compatible as romantic partners is different). You are each trying to figure out whether you're a match, so he could say that he really hopes to have a relationship with you, but what does that mean if you keep dating and then discover a few months from now that you really don't belong together?
don't beat yourself up about having sex 'too soon." Since you have a history with this guy I can see why you wouldn't wait. I've been married twice and with each guy we had sex pretty fast so it's not like a guy is going to dump you if you have sex with him when otherwise he would stay around. sure there are some men who are players and just want sex, but you probably know him well enough to know that he's not a player or you wouldn't have dated him--you said he was shy, so that usually doesn't equate to being a player.
I would worry about 2 things: he's 30, I think you said (I'm not looking at the 1st post) and he's never had a relationship? Why is that? Does he have an explanation for that? And the fact that you have initiated all the dates--I can see a man being shy, but after the first couple of date he should know that you like him so what is there to be shy about now? He knows you'll go out with him again. But don't do all the chasing--he should ask you out now. He does have legit reasons for not seeing you for 2 weekends, but now don't ask him when you will see each other again--see how much he wants to see you.
|Sat, 06-01-2013 - 10:55pm
Do not second guess yourself. Playing games is what turns off many men. Grt these idiot saying out of your mind. Men who are shy and timid do not chase as they assume you are no longer interested. players chase until they get then disappear. Sometimes it is a matter of timing. We are not living in the 70's where 35 hr wook weeks were touted. now for many if notmost 60-110 hr work weeks are the norm. He travels? look people get tired. Some times all a person wants is to set down have time to de stress. Being with someone is not with out stress of different kinds.
|Wed, 06-05-2013 - 10:27am
He does not seem particularily interested in contacting you, you seem to be taking the lead in this area. I don't think you took things too fast, it seems that he is just not really all that interested in pursuing a relationship with you. I guess you have to decide for yourself what you want from a relationship and if what he is giving you is not what you want, then move on.

To start off, I have to say that the Recon is the BEST backpack I have ever owned. The padding on this backpack is amazing. The straps on this backpack are very supportive, and all in all, this backpack is made to last. The gold color is awesome!!! The Recon is comfortable, provides much support, holds a lot of content, and looks very stylish! -
I got this backpack in September of 2009, and I am into my sixth year using it pretty much every day. I used it for school, day hikes, skiing and traveling. It breathes great, has plenty of organization space and is surprisingly comfortable. The waist strap isn't the most beefy strap in existence, but it keeps it secure when skiing and while hiking it allows me to put the weight on my waist comfortably up to about 15-20 lbs. I recently got a separate dedicated ski backpack for the backcountry but the Recon has help up extremely well and will continue to do so. No zippers have broken, no fabric ripped, and no apparent damage anywhere. All-in-all, a really solid backpack that'll last for years. Just make sure you choose a color you'll like half a decade from now.
2013 and they are still like brand new. The material of the bag has not altered or worn out and no problems with the zippers. They have even found new feature, a whistle on the shoulder strap. This backpack is a awesome. I brought this for my son (a different style for my daughter) and they are absolute more than I expected. I wanted to invested in some good backpacks for my kids because the one's from the big box stores always gave us problems. They never lasted throughout the year which leaves me scrambling to find a backpack for them in the middle of the school year. In the middle of the school years there usually are a slim amount of choices. It it wasn't the zipper it was a rip. I brought these backpacks for my kids for ChristmasBottom line buy this backpack and you will not regret it. By the way, I research everything before I buy and plenty of people agree when it comes to North Face backpacks.
I use it for school and I can't imagine having anything else. It's lasted me 4 years and is still going strong. Its the perfect book bag for school; it's tough and holds any supply you could possibly need. I'm on the shorter side and the bag still fits me perfectly.
I take this backpack everywhere I go. It is great for lugging books to class during the week and wonderful while hiking or backpacking. It has plenty of room to store what you need and isn't too heavy. The straps are comfortable and this pack has great back support. Definitely would purchase again.
To start off, I have to say that the Recon is the BEST backpack I have ever owned. My first Recon lasted me through 4 years of high school and 4 years of college. It is perfect for holding a laptop/tablet, textbooks, notebooks, binders, and snacks! The padding on this backpack is amazing and makes 10 lbs of content feel more like 5 lbs. The straps on this backpack are very supporting, and all in all, the craftsmanship of this backpack is made to last. If not for someone breaking into my car and stealing my Recon, I would still be using it right now. Due to my excellent experience with the Recon, I ended up purchasing another one a few days ago. Surprisingly, the support given and the materials used are even better than my original Recon! The coffee brown color is beautiful! I've had such good experiences with my NF backpacks that I also ordered the Surge 2!!Love NF backpacks. Comfortable, provides much support, holds a lot of content, and looks very stylish!

Egypt can get electricity from Ethiopia with dam completion: Ambassador Berhane
Addis Ababa, 29 April 2014 (WIC) – Ethiopian Foreign Affairs State Minister Ambassador Berhane Gebrekirstos said Egypt can get electricity from Ethiopia when the dam is completed.
Addressing Intellectuals' Forum on Ethiopia's Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) in Bahir Dar town, Ambassador Berhane said the benefits of the dam will extend to Egypt's ability to obtain electricity from Ethiopia.
He said the dam is not being constructed for irrigation or farming, but for generating electricity.
"The water will pass through turbines to conduct electricity, and then continue its flow. Egypt will not be harmed by the dam, "on the contrary, it can get electricity from Ethiopia after the dam's construction is complete," he said
The two-day forum brought together local prominent intellectuals and professionals to discuss the legal rights of Ethiopia to use the Nile water.
Participants include water experts, representatives from all government universities, senior officials of the federal and regional governments, lawmakers, civil activists and political figures, among others.
The event's main theme focuses on how best Ethiopia can maintain sustainable utilization and management of the Nile water, as well as the role of governments, African organizations and scientists of riparian states to deepen Nile riparian cooperation.

Alberta has come up with a policy to allow Sikhs to wear a ceremonial religious dagger called a kirpan in courthouses.
Under the Justice Department policy, a person must tell security officers they have a kirpan and wear it in a sheath, under clothing.
The blade of the kirpan can be no longer than 10 centimetres.

Shahrukh vs Ajay: Why Bollywood can't afford a Diwali clash!
Let's get straight to the point. Bollywood just can't afford two big films. Not yesterday, not today, not tomorrow. It is as simple as that. While the media is going berserk 'worrying' about whether Shahrukh Khan's yet untitled film with Yash Chopra would indeed have competition from Ajay Devgn's 'Son of Sardar' this Diwali, it seems nothing more than just a fantastical feeling to actually foresee this happening.
No, the clash is definitely not happening and if one would have to ask Shahrukh or Ajay about it, they would say the same. Well, under their breath at least if not out in open.
For all the claims of 'two films can survive if released on the same day' and 'history has proven that as well', let's challenge the very thought process. Are we talking about 'Dil' and 'Ghayal'? Well, that was 20 years back. Is 'Gadar' vs 'Lagaan' giving us that comfort feel? Please, Sunny Deol starrer did triple the business of Aamir Khan's Oscar nominated masterpiece. As for those talking about the most recent clashes, 'Taare Zameen Par' pretty much got the scare of it's life before finding it's footing after a clash with Akshay Kumar's 'Welcome'. Today, even Aamir would say it was avoidable.
A clash was always an unwelcome situation. It stays on the same even today despite all the talks of multiplexes taking care of the collections. It doesn't quite happen that way. Every producer, distributor, exhibitor, actor pines for an open week. Same holds good for audience as well. Unlike hardcore movie buffs or those from within the industry, no one watches two films over a single weekend. This means that after the first choice has been made, in all likelihood the 'second choice' would be viewed on a pirated DVD at home.
If the clash does take place, one movie would be the second choice this Diwali and eventually end up losing that revenue that could have come theatrically.
In case of Shahrukh and Ajay films, one of them will always be a second choice for many out there. It won't be a straight forward choice, like say with an Akshay Kumar and an Akshaye Khanna solo starrer, where the choice (for majority) is obvious. We are talking about two superstars who have found a market of their own.
If there is a clash, there would be blood. And Bollywood can't afford bloodshed.
My two cents on the situation? Let the film with a bigger (and more respected and revered) director occupy the Diwali slot. The (relatively) younger ones (like Shahrukh and Ajay) do have their chance to fight it out in the future. However, Yashji may or may not make a film for many more years to come.
The legend deserves that space, attention and respect at the least. He truly does!
Do vote and tell us what you think

hi @indicine , what is this article about? I was wishing to read good article from your site but this is not even close to that.
When king khan is in the race , ajay is even lower than AKSHAY KHANNA infront of srk.
Do you forget that ajay have duds like tezz & rascall to his credit when you calling him a megastar like srk who didn't make any flop movie since 2005??!!
Do you forget that srk defeated bigger stars like salman+akshay when they tried to compete with him??!!
In my opinion the first option in your poll is totally wrong coz as we know srk leaves kings size live and what ever happened he will not change his date of release for some like ajay.
Ajay must not respect only YASHJI but he must also be afraid by king of b-town , he must think what verdict his film will get (flop , disaster , dude or new ones which will be inventing in this DIWALI)
Ajay us good actor and i don't hate him , i always watch his movies but clashing with shah rukh khan is bigger & larger than hus ability.
All in all , since 1995 srk + diwali= blockbuster.

Well thank you mr joginder tuteja for this article..i have a harsh feeling that ajay devgn's Son of sardaar get postponed because yash raj films always been the strongest among the production houses but i have a question to you..WHY EVERY SINGLE CRITIC OR JOURNALIST IS ASKING AJAY TO POSTPONE HIS FILM ?? Yash chopra ji no doubt a huge legend of hindi film and everyone of us respect him but at the end of the day ENTERTAINMENT is d main factor..what wl happen if SOS entertains more than yash ji's film ? And ajay devgn is really performing better this days..if his film failed at diwali nothing wl happen but if it do better than yash ji's then it wl b huge blow for yash ji..ARE YOU SCARED OF IT i.e. More or less u r trying to save yash ji's image and trying to give him d best slot alone..is it ??

Of all the cuts announced by airlines in recent weeks, none will have as big an impact on the cruise business as American's pullback in San Juan.
The struggling airline announced 11 days ago that it would slash flights to the Caribbean cruise hub by more than 50% -- from 38 to 18 a day. In a drastic move, the airline is eliminating daily service to San Juan entirely from Baltimore, Fort Lauderdale, Newark, Orlando, Los Angeles and Washington Dulles.
Industry watcher Mike Driscoll, editor of the newsletter Cruise Week, says the downsizing, driven by the soaring cost of fuel, has cruise-focused travel agents buzzing. Unlike mainland cruise hubs such as Miami, New Orleans and Los Angeles, San Juan has a limited drive-in market, for obvious reasons. With the exception of local residents of Puerto Rico, everyone who takes a cruise from the island gets to the ship by airplane.
RELATED ITEM:Airline cutbacks, price hikes have cruisers in a bind
"Clearly, if you see a significant decrease in lift, that will make it that much more difficult to sell cruises out of San Juan," he notes. And "the expectations are there will be more cuts announced in the months ahead. It's going to make (booking trips to San Juan) . . . much harder."
Driscoll notes that San Juan already is viewed as an expensive place to pick up a cruise ship as compared to Fort Lauderdale and Miami, and the American cutbacks are bound to make matters worse. Spirit Airlines also has hinted that cutbacks are coming in San Juan, though just today JetBlue announced it would add flights to San Juan this fall from New York, Boston and Orlando.
"Reducing capacity certainly will increase the fares, upping the overall cost of a cruise vacation out of San Juan," he says. "If reducing capacity doesn't increase fares, that's even worse. It'd be a sign that the economy is in much more dire trouble than currently thought."
Driscoll notes that American's cuts will happen in the fall, when there are fewer ships based in San Juan. The big question, he says, is whether American or other airlines will bring back at least a few weekend flights during the peak winter cruise season.
What does the future hold for San Juan as a cruise hub? It's already not as big as it once was, notes travel agent Kristopher Krenz, owner of PAK-N-GO Cruises and Tours in Brick, N.J.
Krenz, who Cruise Loggers will know as cruisepakngo, a regular contributor to the site and a recent Cruise Logger of the Week, tells me demand for cruises out of San Juan at his agency already is way down from just a few years ago.
"Most of my Caribbean cruisers (now) are leaving from the Northeast and Florida," he notes. "I can remember many more ship departures from San Juan prior to Sept. 11, 2001. Probably one quarter of my clients (back then) did depart on a Caribbean cruise from San Juan."
Krenz notes that round-trip airfares from the New York area to San Juan used to be around $299, low enough to entice cruisers to the hub. Now fares are higher, and there are more drive-to-the-ship options for cruisers who live in New Jersey.
The allure of San Juan cruises as compared to voyages out of Florida, of course, is the itineraries. Since the ships sailing out of San Juan are starting from a position well south of Miami, they can reach southern Caribbean islands such as Barbados and St. Lucia on seven-night trips.
Among the ships sailing out of San Juan over the next year are Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas, Grandeur of the Seas and Serenade of the Seas; Celebrity's Summit and Galaxy; the Caribbean Princess and Carnival's Destiny and Victory.
Cruise Loggers, what are your thoughts on San Juan as a cruise hub? If you've taken a cruise out of the city, tell us what it was like. And tell us whether rising airfares to San Juan will impact your decision to cruise from the destination.

Associated Press
DENVER (AP) -- A federal appeals court ruled for the first time Wednesday that gay couples have a constitutional right to marry, extending the movement's legal winning streak and bringing the issue a big step closer to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The three-judge panel in Denver ruled 2-1 that states cannot deprive people of the fundamental right to marry simply because they choose a partner of the same sex.
The court dismissed as "wholly illogical" the notion that allowing gays to wed could somehow undermine traditional marriage.
The decision by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel upheld a lower-court ruling that struck down Utah's gay marriage ban. It becomes law in the six states covered by the 10th Circuit: Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah and Wyoming. But the panel immediately put the ruling on hold pending an appeal.
The Utah attorney general's office planned to appeal, but it was assessing whether to go directly to the U.S. Supreme Court or ask the entire 10th Circuit to review the ruling, spokeswoman Missy Larsen said.
Wednesday's decision "takes us one step closer to reaching certainty and finality," the office said in a statement.
After the ruling, the couples named in the appeal hugged, cried and exchanged kisses at a news conference outside their attorney's offices in downtown Salt Lake City.
"This decision is an absolute victory for fairness and equality for all families in Utah, in every state in the 10th Circuit and every state in this great nation of the United States," said their attorney, Peggy Tomsic.
Plaintiff Derek Kitchen said he and his partner, Moudi Sbeity, are "so proud to be a part of history."
Later, about 300 people rallied in support of the ruling at a Salt Lake City park where rainbow flags and colorful signs were displayed proudly.
"It's an incredible day," said Chris Johnson, who married his partner, David Tuma, in December while gay marriage was briefly legal in Utah. "We met 19 years ago. We are former Air Force officers. It's wonderful after 19 years to have this relationship."
The decision gives increased momentum to a legal cause that already has compiled an impressive record in the lower courts after the Supreme Court last year struck down the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Since then, 16 federal and state judges have issued rulings siding with gay marriage advocates.
The latest of those rulings was in Indiana, where a federal judge threw out that state's same-sex marriage ban Wednesday in a decision that immediately allows gay couples to wed. The Indiana and Utah rulings came just one day ahead of the anniversary of the landmark Supreme Court decision striking down part of the federal anti-gay marriage law.
Within hours of the Utah decision, the Boulder County, Colorado, clerk announced that she would issue marriage licenses to gay couples because Colorado's gay marriage ban would be voided if the decision stands.
The Denver Post reported more than 100 people gathered at a hastily called rally at a downtown Denver park on Wednesday evening. Several speakers praised the court's ruling and talked about how long it took to get to this point.
Others focused on the Boulder clerk and recorder's decision.
Ryann Peyton, who attended the rally with her partner, Sara Knickerbocker, and their 2-year-old son, said even if the marriage licenses issued by Boulder County are invalidated, couples have to follow their hearts.
"You always have to do what's right for your family," Peyton said. "And if taking advantage of this appears right for your family, that's what you should do."
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, based in Salt Lake City, said on its website that it maintains marriage should be between a man and a woman, but believes "all people should be treated with respect."
The Utah ruling was especially significant because it was the first appellate court to conclude that last year's Supreme Court decision means states cannot deny gays the ability to marry.
In 2012, an appellate court struck down California's gay marriage ban but said it was only ruling on that law, not the broader constitutional questions. There were no such caveats in Wednesday's 65-page decision.
Evan Wolfson, president of Freedom to Marry, said Utah's legal victory was sweeter because of where it originated -- a conservative, deeply religious state in the heart of the mountain West.
"What is so powerful here is that we have the first federal appellate court and ... it's a case coming out of Utah affirming in the strongest, clearest, boldest terms that the Constitution guarantees the freedom to marry and equal protection for all Americans and all means all, including gay couples," he said.

The research team came to this conclusion after studying data in six trials that involve a total of 454 patients.
Part of the damage involved in Alzheimer's disease is a loss of acetylcholine-containing neurons in the basal forebrain. This suggests that drugs that could inhibit cholinesterase, which breaks down acetylcholine, could increase the ability of remaining cholinergic neurons.
Scientists know that Huperzine A can block acetyl cholinesterase and that it can work both in the peripheral and central nervous systems. This makes it a promising agent for treating various forms of dementia including Alzheimer's disease.
"These findings are based on small number of trials, but the data indicate that it would be well worth setting up some more high quality assessments of this interesting drug," says Associate Professor Hongmei Wu, who led this research and works in the Department of Geriatrics at the West China Hospital of Sichuan University in Chengdu, Sichuan, China.

:: Don Walsh, Ph.D. - Science - 1989
Don Walsh joined the Navy in 1948 as an aircrewman in torpedo bombers. Entering the Naval Academy in 1950, he graduated with the Class of 1954. After two years at sea on a cargo ship in the Amphibious Forces he entered submarine school in 1956. Subsequently he served in the submarines Rasher (SSR-269), Sea Fox (SS-402), Bugara (SS-331), and commanded Bashaw (AGSS-241).
In 1959 Lieutenant Walsh became first Officer-in-Charge of the Bathyscaph Trieste at the Navy Electronics Laboratory in San Diego. Designated USN Deep Submersible Pilot #1 in 1959, he also became the first submersible pilot in the US. In January 1960, Walsh and Jacques Piccard piloted Trieste to the deepest place in the World Ocean: 35,800 feet. For this achievement, Lieutenant Walsh received a medal from President Eisenhower at ceremonies in the White House.
From 1970-75, Commander Walsh was on duty in Washington DC serving as Special Assistant (Submarines) to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research and Development (ASNR&D) and as Deputy Director of Navy
Laboratories. He retired in 1975 to accept a professorship of ocean engineering at the University of Southern California (USC). There he was founding Director of the Institute for Marine and Coastal Studies (IMCS) with rank of dean. He left USC after 8 years to form a consulting practice, International Maritime Incorporated (IMI), a company he runs today.
He was educated at the Naval Academy, Texas A&M University (MS and PhD in oceanography), and San Diego State University (MA in political science). In 1973-74 he spent 14 months as Resident Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at the Smithsonian.
Dr. Walsh is author of over 200 ocean-related publications and has given over 1,500 lectures, TV and radio programs in 64 countries. Since graduation from the Naval Academy, his travels have taken him to about 112 nations throughout the world.
For the past four decades, Dr. Walsh has also worked in both Arctic (25 expeditions) and Antarctic (25 expeditions) including the North and South Poles. His first trip to the Arctic was in 1955, the Antarctic in 1971. From November, 2002 - February, 2003 he made a 64 day circumnavigation of the continent in a Russian icebreaker. The "Walsh Spur" (ridge) near Cape Hallett is named for him in recognition of his contributions to the US Antarctic Program.
In 1999, he dove 8,000 feet to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge near the Azores at the Rainbow Vents hydrothermal vents field. In July 2001, he dove 12,500 feet to the wreck of RMS Titanic. And in July 2002 he dove on the WWII German Battleship Bismarck at 15,500 feet in the Atlantic. In all these operations, he used the Russian Mir submersibles that are rated for 20,000 feet.
Among other awards, in February, 2001 Dr. Walsh was elected to the National Academy of Engineering. In March 2001, he was awarded the Explorers Medal by the Explorers Club. Both of these honors recognize his four decades of work in the design, construction and operation of undersea vehicles. In November of the same year the French Jules Verne Aventures organization awarded him its "Etoile Polaire" medal to celebrate "The Greatest Explorations of the 20th Century". In 2001 he was also cited as one of the great explorers in the Life Magazine book, "The Greatest Adventures of All Time".
Don lives on a ranch in rural Oregon with his wife, Joan. When not busy traveling he flies his experimental biplane around the area.

Michigan, Missouri: Innovative Mobile Exhibits Bring Electric Vehicles to Students and Public
|Positive Impact:
|EERE supported education on electric drive vehicles for students.
|Michigan, Missouri
|Michigan Technological University, Missouri University of Science and Technology, St. Louis Clean Cities Coalition
|EERE Investment:
|$8 million
|Clean Energy Sector:
|Sustainable transportation
EERE has supported two innovative projects bringing hands-on education on electric drive vehicles to students. As part of a larger educational Recovery Act project, Michigan Technological University has built a full mobile laboratory inside of a tractor trailer that includes activities for students from elementary to graduate school. It contains simple, interactive outreach activities for public events, such as its participation in the USA Science and Engineering Festival. It is also fully equipped for undergraduate and graduate level classes, with lecture space, powertrain hardware-in-the-loop test cells, a chassis dynamometer, and other laboratory equipment. Through the mobile laboratory and the offered courses, students will gain valuable hands-on experience that will prepare them to improve and develop new plug-in electric vehicle technologies in the future.
Further, the St. Louis Science Center—in partnership with the Missouri University of Science and Technology's larger Recovery Act project—has built EVie, a modified all-electric truck with solar panels and educational exhibits. The hands-on exhibits help students explore basic energy concepts, understand how batteries and electric vehicles work, and realize the benefits of advanced vehicle technologies. The truck exhibits at the center itself, as well as classrooms and events around the region. The St. Louis Clean Cities Coalition has collaborated with the museum to maximize the exhibit's reach.
Through the Recovery Act, EERE also funded Michigan Technological University's overall project for $2.98 million, which included curriculum development for undergraduate and graduate certificates and a program of study for a Master's degree. EERE funded the Missouri University of Science and Technology Project for $5 million, which also included creating degree and certificate programs for community colleges, four-year undergraduates, technicians, trainers, and industry engineers. Both of these projects supported development of a workforce that can help create, build, and maintain advanced vehicle technologies that reduce U.S. carbon pollution and use of imported petroleum.
The Vehicle Technologies Office (VTO) develops and deploys efficient and environmentally friendly highway transportation technologies that will enable America to use less petroleum. These technologies will provide Americans with greater freedom of mobility and energy security, while lowering costs and reducing impacts on the environment.

Time Out says
Posted: Wed May 5 2010
Walk through an unmarked side door at the front of Japanese restaurant Village Yokocho, and you'll find yourself in perhaps the classiest joint in the East Village. Angel's Share remains completely unknown to some of its neighbors; that duality is part of its charm. Standing around and groups of four or more are not allowed—but this is really a date place anyway, offering a stellar view of Stuyvesant Square, tuxedoed bartenders and excellent cocktails, including one of the city's best grasshoppers.

Can't he just keep the 211 as a tailgater until she has watched all her recorded programs and then cancel it from their account and return it to Dish?
You also should realize, any recordings on the EHD with the 211 will be lost once Dish takes this receiver off your account.
This is probably what I would try to do anyway.

The contract is horrendous. He'll likely become a burden on the roster and the Yankees' spending plans. He's clearly declining. He has a thing for overly-muscular women.
But the 2012 version of Arod is still an above-average hitter (wRC+ 121, OPS+ 113) and losing him for at least 6 weeks definitely hurts the team.
So what do the Yankees do?
First of all, thank the Lord that Eric Chavez is on the roster. He's had a fantastic season (.276 /.331/.487) and has whacked right-handed pitching (.295/.353/.525). He'll get most of the time in Arod's absence, but Chavez might break a bone just getting out of bed, so there's a need to add another player who can give him a rest.
In the short-term, Ramiro Pena was called up to take Arod's place, but he can't hit at all and is not the long-term solution.
There are some in-house options. Recent NoMaas interviewee Corban Joseph is the most deserving player of a call-up, as the 23-year old is having an outstanding season at AAA (.281/.379/.503, 142 wRC+) — might we add he's been on a torrid streak since our interview (holla!).
Problem with CoJo is that he's left-handed (with very divergent platoon splits) like Chavez, and he's primarily a second-baseman that hasn't played 3B since 2010. The Yankees have shown no real interest in trying him at other positions, and as he admitted to us, his defense is still a work in progress. We'd love to see him get a shot, just because he's a great kid and deserves it based on his performance. Considering the Yankees' needs, we don't know how much utility he would serve though.
There's other guys in Triple-A, who are right-handed and can play third base. There's Brandon Laird and Kevin Russo, both of which have hit AAA lefties well this season (Laird: .296/.341/.504 – Russo: .385/.469/.469)
Cuban defector Ronnier Mustelier is on the DL (foot), but he's hit like a beast since the Yankees plucked the soon-to-be 28-year old from the Communists.
There's the recently-reactivated (was on the DL) error-machine Eduardo Nunez, who the organization loves for some odd reason.
And since this is New York, the trade speculation is underway with San Diego's Chase Headley leading the pack. Headley is a fine player (hitting .268/.361/.423, .344 wOBA, 124 wRC+, 3.6 WAR). He's also entering his prime years (age 28) and is arbitration-eligible for the next couple seasons.
Problem is that reportedly six teams are already negotiating for him, which means the cost will likely be high. Is it worth giving up valued prospects when Arod will be returning? Headley does offer versatility as he's played OF in the past, although not very well.
It's also worth noting that Headley is a switch-hitter, but he's much better from the left-side (career vs RHP, 114 wRC+ vs. 98 wRC+ vs LHP). So he doesn't fit the need for a right-handed bat to complement Chavez. Plus, if handed-ness isn't a concern for the Yankees, then just call up Corban Joseph and there's no cost.
We shall wait and see, friends.

Rita Sklar: Protecting The Bill Of Rights
by Gwen Moritz
Posted 2/25/2013 12:00 am
Rita Sklar has been in Arkansas for 22 years, 20 of them with the American Civil Liberties Union of Arkansas, and yet she's clearly not from around here.
Raised in the Bronx in a family of what she described as "social Jews," Sklar had tried careers in acting and academia before finding a professional home in the ACLU.
"My parents were progressives; their parents were poor immigrants. So I was raised with a certain set of values, a strong sense of right and wrong, justice and injustice, the poor, the powerless," Sklar said earlier this month.
So even though her formal studies had been of religion and philosophy rather than law and politics, she took her then-husband's advice and applied for a job at the ACLU's national headquarters in New York. "And the minute I stepped foot in that building and heard two women arguing — in an intellectual way — I felt right at home."
She was pregnant with her son when her husband accepted a teaching position with the University of Central Arkansas in 1991. "Arkansas seemed as good a place as any. It seemed like a big adventure," she said.
After staying home with her Arkansas-born son for more than a year, Sklar started looking for a job — and promptly became convinced that "there was no place for someone like me."
Then, in 1992, a few months into her job search, a minor miracle occurred: The executive director of the ACLU of Arkansas moved to Texas, and the perfect job suddenly opened up. Although the ACLU has had a presence in Arkansas since 1969 — originally in Fayetteville, where University of Arkansas professors were being required to sign loyalty oaths during the Vietnam War — the organization and Sklar now seem inseparable.
The ACLU of Arkansas recently hired its fourth employee — "exponential growth by our standards," Skalr said. The nonprofit organization has about 2,500 members "all over the state, in the smallest, most unlikely places." With the guidance of her board of directors, she and her staff work on the ACLU's three missions: legislative, legal and educational. While all ACLU chapters are guided by a set of national policies, the local boards and executives are semi-autonomous in deciding how to deploy limited resources most effectively.
Generally associated with "progressive" or "liberal" causes, Sklar said the ACLU is nonpartisan and rarely even comments on judicial candidates or nominations. "Our client is the Bill of Rights, which applies to everybody," she said, pointing out that the ACLU had defended conservative icons like Oliver North and Rush Limbaugh.
During legislative sessions, like the current one, Sklar is at the Capitol virtually full time, and the changes there during the past two decades are palpable. But having control of both houses of the Legislature in Republican hands for the first time in living memory is not as different as it might seem — especially when it comes to attempts to limit abortion rights.
"I have seen the legislative body go through several phases on that issue," Sklar said. "Anti-choice legislation used to come out of the House and be stopped in the Senate. There was a lot of bad stuff stopped by a handful of good people — and I don't know if there was a single Republican face back then."
In 2011, when Democrats still controlled both houses, 11 bills aimed at limiting reproductive rights were introduced, and 10 of them were killed, Sklar said.
What's changed, she said, is there are "fewer [legislators] interested in social justice, or at least fewer who are willing to take the heat."
The ACLU has also attempted to preserve civil rights for homosexuals in Arkansas, and this is an area in which she has observed dramatic shifts in attitudes — including having openly gay candidates and even a legislator. "That is very satisfying," Sklar said.
The ACLU has not, however, inserted itself into what might look like a natural fight over the Bill of Rights: gun rights. That, Sklar said, is because the ACLU officially insists that the Second Amendment refers to the right of states to raise militias rather than about individual gun ownership, despite clear Supreme Court decisions to that effect.
The organization, then, has not considered gun control to be a civil liberties issue, although Sklar said there is internal discussion about changing that position.
In a state that has always been conservative socially and that has become increasingly conservative politically, Sklar's job might seem to require courage, or at least a very thick skin. Not so, she says.
"People assume it takes courage to do what I'm doing, but I don't understand what they are talking about. In my family, in the area I come from, these are very common ways of thinking," Sklar said.
And the state to which she relocated had made it as pleasant as possible to be an outsider.
"Arkansans really don't like confrontation, so I've had very few people say anything ugly to my face," she said, then smiled. "Ugly — that's a word I picked up in Arkansas."

Historical Traveller Reviews of Hampton Inn Suites Buffalo Hotel
Nice Hotel for Buffalofrom worldtraveler089
Overall the room was very comfy. Everything seemed fresh and modern. There was a thick comforter on the bed, which seemed more like a feather bed. I would guess they chuck that when summer comes along.
The breakfast was as usual for a Hampton plentiful and hearty. Everyday there was selection of muffins, cereals, eggs etc.
My only complaint is that the hotel does not offer wi-fi in the rooms. You still have to use the cable on the desk to access the internet. There is also some bogus information on the hilton website that they have wi-fi in the lobby area. I was there all week and could never get a signal. The front desk apologized and said the signal came in and out. They should just be honest and say "it's always out."
For dumpy Buffalo, this is about is good as it gets.

We have travelled to Buffalo several times now, and usually stay at The Mansion on Delaware Avenue (which was sold out when we tried to reserve for this trip). The Mansion hotel is only a few blocks from the Hampton Inn, but seems worlds away from the noise and hullabaloo! We will simply have to reserve farther in advance for The Mansion hotel(which we love!) the next time we visit Buffalo!
Noise on the 2nd floorfrom Matt
Lived up to its good reviewsfrom mississauga4
The hotel was spotless, their staff was friendly, efficient and helpful. The parking was plentiful and free. The location was good in terms of nearby restaurants. Located right in downtown Buffalo, it was a short walk to the free streetcar service that takes you straight to the HSBC arena.
Their free continental breakfast was fresh and hot with 3 different coffees to choose from a la Starbucks (which is across the street, by the way).
Although I didn't use it, they had an attractive pool and gym area.
Our room was huge! Way more space than two people needed. Everything worked. We had in-room free hi speed internet.
I would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again.
Loved this Hotel!!from buffalobreeze
Loved itfrom A TripAdvisor Member
I have stayed at many hotels in Upstate NY and this was the best by far. I have stayed at the Flamingo in the heart of Las Vegas and I liked this Hampton better. The Staff was very nice. We did not get a chance to eat at any of the restaurants, enjoy the pool area (very beautiful) nor use the workout facility as time with our son was very tight. I will recommend this hotel to anyone with a trip to Buffalo in mind. I loved it. I won't stay anywhere else when I come to Buffalo again.
Lovely hotelfrom tzelma
The only complaint I think we would have is the limited parking. The hotel was packed for the U2 show that night and the parking lot was full so we had to park on the street. The spots were reserved for hotel guests but it still would be nice to have more parking, but we dp realize the city has limited space for such a thing.
This would never keep us from staying there again. We highly recommend this property.
Very Pleasedfrom WashDC1
Top Local Tips for Buffalo
Check out the air fares from Buffalo if you live in Toronto area This is the 2nd time we flew out of Buffalo vs Toronto airport. Why? Because the first time to Las Vegas a return-way ticket was $200 vs. $700 from Toronto. To fly to Orlando was $200 vs. $600 from Toronto. Don't be scared to do this, it is very easy to get to the Buffalo airport and OK to leave your car in the parking. Give yourself four (4) hrs. PRIOR to your flight departure and you should be OK, take into consideration time of travel - ie. rush hour, weekend, etc.. This is from Toronto/GTA area.
Delicious Food at Pearl Street Brewery Try the Pot Roast! It's delicious!!!! Also make sure you get the card of your cab driver because getting cabs is difficult
Elmwood and FLW Check out funky Elmwood Avenue and the Darwin Martin Frank Lloyd Wright house. Both were our favorites!

Heart disease health centre
If you have peripheral arterial disease, you might find taking regular exercise helpful. It can help you walk further and exercise for longer before you get pain in your calf.
No one knows exactly why exercise helps. It probably improves the blood supply to your legs and helps the muscles of your legs to work more efficiently. This means that it takes longer before your legs start hurting. [17]
Lots of research has shown that exercise can help people with peripheral arterial disease to go further before their legs start to hurt. People have done different types of exercise in the studies, including walking outside or on a treadmill, and using an arm-crank machine.
We found several large summaries of research ( systematic reviews) that looked at how exercise could help people with peripheral arterial disease. [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] In most studies, people also took antiplatelet medicines to prevent their blood from forming harmful blood clots.
In one study, people exercised three times a week for 24 weeks. Each exercise session lasted for 45 minutes to 60 minutes.
It doesn't seem to matter what exercise you do. It can involve either your upper body or lower body. One study found that people who used an arm-crank machine for 12 weeks were able to walk further without pain than those who did no exercise. [25] It might be that any exercise helps your heart work better, which then helps you walk further.
In one study, some people took part in a programme in which they were given advice and help to stop smoking, as well as taking exercise. About 23 in 100 people who did both of those things could walk further 12 months later. Out of those people who didn't take part in the programme, only 15 in 100 could walk further a year later.
Several studies have also looked at how doing exercise compares with having an angioplasty (an operation to make your narrowed arteries wider). Researchers found that exercise and angioplasty both worked well in helping people walk farther and feel better. But some studies found that having an angioplasty and doing exercise helped people even more than just doing one or the other. [26] [27] [28]
As long as you exercise sensibly and don't overdo it, you shouldn't come to any harm. Your doctor, nurse, or physiotherapist can advise you on what exercise is best for you.
systematic reviews
A systematic review is a thorough look through published research on a particular topic. Only studies that have been carried out to a high standard are included. A systematic review may or may not include a meta-analysis, which is when the results from individual studies are put together.

Willie Nelson Mugshot!
November 30, 2010 11:31 AM
Oh, it's my favorite part of any celebrity arrest … the MUGSHOT! Yup, Willie got busted again for pot on the November 26th for having a little bit on his tour bus. His bus pulled into a checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas. The U.S. Border Patrol (yup, the border patrol!) says that officers smelled the distinct odor of post coming from the bus.
The bus was searched and they found 6 ounces of marijuana! Willie and 2 others were arrested and released on a $2500 bail.


text: Maestra kindly allowed me to swatch her OPI Burlesque polishes. Glow Up Already! and Show It & Glow It! are very, very shiny polishes. But my camera apparently decided to protect my eyes from all that light, so I'm afraid you'll have to imagine all that sparkle coming from them. Surprisingly I loved Glow Up Already! more than Show It ...Read More »
