A model's hips narrower than her head? A torso as long as a giraffe's neck? Take a look at this New York Times article and see what can happen when digital photo retouching gets out of hand.
We're not the only ones shaking our heads. Britain's Liberal Democrats want to put an end to it and French Parliamentarians want warning labels on manipulated images (that ought to clutter up magazine spreads!).
Truth be told, manipulated images have always been rife in media, from OJ's digitally darkened face on Time in 1994 to Katie Couric's slimmed silhouette on a CBS magazine in 2006 to Andy Roddick's bionic biceps for Men's Fitness in 2007. Heck, even Abraham Lincoln's portrait was altered in an 1860 portrait in which his head was placed on another politician's body.
So, what's right and what's pushing it? Hey, we're all for banishing red-eye and who couldn't use a little teeth whitening now and then, but when does photo (digital retouching) re-touching go too far? Aren't we all a little slimmer in our mind's eye? Where's the line between aspirational and just plain wrong?

WASHINGTON - After years of denying "doping" allegations, seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstong reportedly admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs during an interview on Jan. 14 with Oprah Winfrey.
Armstong's confession included an apology to friends and colleagues, as well as an in-person apology to the staff at the Livestrong cancer charity he founded in 1997.
Mark McKinnon, a board member for Livestrong, was shocked that Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs.
"I absolutely was a believer until I read the Tyler Hamilton book, and that was a devastating experience for me," McKinnon told WTOP on Tuesday. "I'm devastated by all of it, and I think Lance has got to crawl over a lot of broken glass with apologies to all of those people, and I think he's got a long list, including me."
McKinnon, a political advisor who became involved in the foundation eight years ago after his wife almost died from cancer, says he never suspected Armstrong was using substances for cycling.
"I've been at the foundation for years and have spent a lot of time with (Armstrong)," McKinnon says. "I heard Lance say that under any circumstances, as a cancer survivor, he wouldn't put anything in his body. I certainly understood that, seeing what my wife went through."
For now, McKinnon's focus is on trying to make sure the foundation continues with its work.
"Obviously we're concerned at the foundation about the impact this is going to have on the good work we've been doing," McKinnon says. "The one title they can't take away from Lance is cancer survivorship."
McKinnon plans to watch Armstrong's interview with Winfrey. He says that if his confession and apologies are heartfelt and sincere, he thinks there's still a lot of work Armstrong can do in cancer.
Armstrong's interview with Winfrey is scheduled to air Thursday, Jan. 17.

Now we're getting down to business.
Andrew Garcia was quickly sacrificed Wednesday on American Idol, with Ryan Seacrest & Co. determining that there was no use in waiting for the likable young dad to be dismissed, considering there was another elimination coming at the end of the hour.
"Thank you, guys, I appreciate everything," Andrew said after closing things out with James Morrison's "You Give Me Something." "I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad I've been through what I've been through."
And with the once-promising Andrew out of the way, it was time to focus on the ones who had to sit there suffering while Brooke White, Justin Gaston and this week's mentor, Adam Lambert, took the stage.
While maybe it would behoove these contestants to just call it a draw at this point after watching Lambert (oozing charisma as always) perform, they're gonna keep going. Well, seven of them are...
Katie Stevens was the other contestant forced to say her goodbyes tonight, concluding an up-and-down run on the show that included the great pop-R&B vs. country battle waged by Kara DioGuardi and Simon Cowell.
But aside from all the talk about pitch problems and not sounding young enough, she hit plenty of high notes and, most important, will be around for the American Idols Live tour.
When asked what stories she would tell when she returned to her "real life" (i.e., high school), Katie said she'd talk "about all the amazing people [she] met and the amazing experience that this was."
And heeding the advice of John and Paul, she sang "Let It Be."
Meanwhile, it turns out the judges' save was a savvy move, because last week's almost-castoff, Michael Lynche, wasn't even in the bottom three tonight after turning in a pretty great version of Elvis Presley's "In the Ghetto" yesterday.
In honor of next week's Idol Gives Back special, the African-and-U.S. poverty-aiding charity event that took the year off in '09, the top seven will perform inspirational songs Tuesday with the help of guest mentor Alicia Keys.
So it looks like there won't be much drama on Wednesday, just heart-tugging stories and good tunes from the likes of Elton John, Carrie Underwood, Joss Stone, Mary J. Blige, Jeff Beck, Annie Lennox and the Black Eyed Peas.
Did America get it right this week? Whose days do you think are numbered, now that Katie and Andrew are gone?

Guest post by Brett Mineer, an award winning journalist, former reporter/anchor for CKNW 980AM in Vancouver, and current freelance writer and commentator.
So Kevin Falcon says he hasn't decided if he will run for re-election in 2013.
This is the same Kevin Falcon who just over a year ago was fighting Christy Clark for leadership of the BC Liberal Party, his campaign even questioning if Clark had the chutzpah to stick with the party, or turn and run if defeated.
What does Falcon's indecision on the subject suggest about the state of the BC Liberal union?
It's likely if really pressed Falcon would say he has family considerations etc, but these days one can only wonder if there's more to it.
While efforts were made by Premier Christy Clark and her caucus to downplay the defection of former Solicitor General and Abbotsford-South MLA John van Dongen to the BC Conservatives, it clearly has major implications for a party and Premier on the ropes.
This isn't lost on the Premier, despite her assertions to the media a full 24 hours after the fact that caucus remains united – so far as they will tell her anyways.
There are reports out of Victoria that upon her return, Premier Clark called an emergency meeting of her caucus to determine where they stood on her leadership.
Globe & Mail columnist Gary Mason reports the Premier was "resolute" and "dismissed the long term consequences" of the dastardly defection "insisting that better days were ahead if everyone stuck together".
Sticking together may get harder to do, even for those who before Monday, may not have dared consider doling Clark a van Dongen of their own.
New polling (conducted before the 'van Dongening') offer a grim picture for the Premier and her party.
The Mustel Group puts the NDP at 42 percent, the Liberals at 34 percent, and the BC Conservatives at 17 percent, and that is the most flattering of the polls.
An robo-call Forum Research poll conducted March 19 put the NDP at 47 percent, with the BC Liberals and BCCP in a dead heat at 21 percent.
Angus Reid shows Premier Clark's approval rating at the bottom of the barrel this week – a pathetic 33 percent.
The message in the mayhem is that as the clock ticks down to 2013, without a major momentum reversal the nightmare "split on the right" scenario Clark has been threatening caucus and voters with is coming to pass – just as The Socialists are banging at the gates.
Worse yet, it is happening as BC Liberals are spending on "Risky Dix" anti-NDP propaganda, and following a fall attack ad campaign warning against the "unprincipled" leader of the BC Conservatives, John Cummins.
Then there is the money.
At what point do corporate and other donors begin to hedge their bets and begin flooding the coffers of the perceived government in waiting with cash?
A high-up inside source at camp BCNDP recently told me it is already starting.
Is it more likely the so-called "free enterprisers" will split donations between the Liberals and Conservatives or go with the guy (albeit a dirty commie) who appears to have it in the bag?
I'm not a betting man – but I'd venture you a free guess that the worst is still to come for the Christy Clark government.

The Valley of Roses Ride truly is the ideal way to explore the mysterious and enchanting country of
Morocco - spend your days riding hard in the saddle and your nights in the comfort of top quality luxury accommodation! Here is your chance to explore expansive and exotic landscapes full of adventure, with thrilling canters across wide open
valleys or leisurely strolls with rider camaraderie along the dry riverbeds of the desert lands. This special trip itinerary explores a marvelous region not often visited by tourism and you really have a unique and delightful opportunity to meet the nomadic
families that call this vast desert home. We visit several oases, canyons and
traditional villages and towns, including pretty Skoura, a lush oasis town that is
home to the impressive 17th Century Amerhidl Kasbah and is
immortalized on Morocco's 50 dirham note, and Ouarzazate, a town chiefly
inhabited by Berbers and that houses the fortified village (ksar) of Ait Benhaddou,
declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. All hotels on this trek are of a high quality 4-star caliber, while the camps
are a luxury 5-star experience not to be missed, including a highly specialized crew and a top qualified Moroccan chef to make your stay with us as comfortable and as pleasing as possible to all your senses! There is no better way to experience all the all that Morocco has to offer!
Camping Ride with vehicle support Progressive Ride (no camping)
Day 1 Meeting in Ouarzazate at 1pm. After lunch we drive by minibus to Skoura (20 miles) where we check into a typical Kasbah. The historic fort from the 13th century was exquisitely renovated. Dinner and overnight.
Day 2 After breakfast we meet our horses and off we go riding in the direction of the Atlas Mountains. We stop for lunch at an oasis that provides some well deserved shade for both horse and rider. The evening camp is situated at a creek at the edge of a mountain village. Relax and enjoy one of the many culinary highlights of your trip tonight.
Day 3 Today we cross several mountain villages and get to know more about the day-to-day life of these original people. We ride further along the Atlas range until we reach a high plateau where we stop for lunch and enjoy a superb view over the whole countryside. The afternoon will bring several more mountain villages before reaching camp in the early evening.
Day 4 First we will follow a dried out river bed before reaching the villages of the Ikandoules tribes. Lunch is on a nice plateau. The afternoon is a nice ride along the plateau before reaching camp for the night.
Day 5 We leave the plateau and descend into a wonderful valley, where we stop for lunch. Here we can gaze towards the snow capped peaks of the impressive Atlas Mountains. We then ride through impressive canyons and along lonely villages until we reach the immense Mogun Valley. We have to cross a river before reaching the camp for the night.
Day 6 Riding through a wonderful valley we again climb the mountains for a last magnificent view around lunch time. After lunch we say goodbye to the horses and drive back to Ouarzazate (1 hr), where we overnight in a riad – an especially beautiful and luxurious but still very typical Moroccan hotel. Relax and enjoy!
Day 7 A day to rest, relax and sight see Ouarzazate and the impressive "Kasr de Tourirt" – once the residence of the Pascha of Marrakesh. Dinner and overnight.
Day 8 Departure after breakfast.
The Equestrian Level
You should feel comfortable at all gaits and have some experience of long rides. We spend at least between 4 and 5 hours on horseback every day. During a typical day we mostly walk, there will be some trotting and sometimes we even walk beside our horses for particular parts of the trail. When the conditions are right - we go for a fast canter! There are two guides on horseback so that we can split into smaller groups in order to allow for different paces for any riding level variations or preferences. We are not in a competition but on vacation!
The Horses
The horses are Arab-Barbs
specialized for this type of excursion and climate. They are
particularly well maintained, accustomed to working together, patient
and reliable. These horses are specially selected by your French guide,
Corinne. The horses are absolutely fabulous. They have been schooled and are kept by a french Saumur instructor living in Morocco. These horses only do trips and are used to working every day. Some of them are perfect for less experienced riders and others for higher level riders.
You have a choice of trail or English saddles, all being very comfortable. They come with saddle bags. We use bridles with Spanish bits. All the tack is in excellent condition, perfectly maintained.
On a full trip there will be a crew of 15 people (less on smaller rides):
* Your guide, Corinne, rides along with you
* The GP doctor
* One Moroccan guide, Salah or Ahmed
* The logistics chief, Hamid or Saidi
* The vehicles chief, Mabrouk
* The chef and his assistants (2 or 3)
* The service personnel (2 to 3)
* The chief groom Hassan, and the stablemen (2 to 3)
* The personnel for the setup of the bivouacs
* The drivers
The vehicles :
* The doctor's 4WD
* The truck for 14 horses, is waiting at every campsite and keeps the spare horses
* The water tank trucks
* A passenger van is available at every campsite, just in case it is needed
* The trucks for the camping gear and the luggage
All the personnel has walkie-talkies.
Safety is a proactive matter in horse selection, choice of tack and personnel. Our horses have been carefully selected, they are perfectly calm and schooled for trail tours. Our partners are trail professionals with extensive local experience.
Last but not least, the passenger van follows the group all the time, although out of sight, it's always, just like the doctor's 4WD and the horse truck, less than 15 min away. Should anything happen, a person or even the whole group can be safely taken care of.
The local climate ranges from pleasant to hot (between 15 °C/59 °F and 35 °C/95 °F, according to the period). On the other hand, in winter, the nights can be a little bit cool! (Close to 5 °C/41 °F)!
please do not wear any see through blouses, tank tops, shorts or similar clothing. Please respect the conservative nature of the country.
The crew will take care of your luggage and transfer it from place to place
in the support vehicle.
It is best to bring soft luggage and not hard suitcases. Not too many pieces
will avoid problems as well.
3 nights in hotels or riads and 4 nights in special deluxe camps!
We have selected all hotels with the usual criteria in mind: cleanliness, hospitality, comfort! But we also try to share some treasure troves - outstanding architecture, incredible welcome or exceptional restaurants. Not all these places sport a "star" but everyone is always impressed and wonders how we found these places. But shhhh…it's a secret … !
During the trip, there is the bivouac, where everything is centered ... like in a hotel!
The room tents are typical berber tents, roomy, high ceilings, real beds (with a base, a mattress, sheets, pillows, blankets). There are rugs on the floor and night tables with lamps. If needed, there is heating in winter (in the desert the temperature can drop to 5°C / 40°F, down from 25°C / 80°F during the day).
Every evening you'll find your towel, soap and shampoo ready on your bed, and we have hot water showers! There are restrooms too, fully equipped. Every day we have two water tanks brought to the bivouac!
Thanks to our generator, you can charge your cell phone, your camera, camcorder batteries or your laptop! You may even use a blow dryer... just remember, the power here is 220V / 50 Hz and you may want/need to bring an outlet adapter.
You can even make telephones calls in the middle of the desert!
There are always some surprises for you (two or three) : musicians, dancers, snake charmers, and even an incredible bard... but we shouldn't disclose too much if we want them to be surprises!
All meals at the hotel, including a special welcome evening and an animated goodbye evening.
During the ride: Continental breakfast and traditional Moroccan breakfasts, picnic lunches (salads, BBQ) or in typical restaurants, dinners are cooked by our chef and his assistants in camp.
Meals are important, therefore it has to be just perfect! The chefs have been carefully selected and the evening meals at the bivouac are literally gastronomic. For lunches we have huge barbecues and for breakfast, a superb buffet !
Here are some menus, just to give you an idea :
Breakfasts are super buffets with everything you want :
French style and Moroccan pastries, eggs, cheese, fresh fruit juices,
coffee, tea...
Lunch :
* Continental salads
* marinated meat kebab, vegetables
* Pastries, fruit, tea, coffee
* Moroccan salads : Zaalouk, Carrots à l'orange, yams,…
* Tajines de Kefta, vegetables
* Pastries, Beghrir, fruit, tea, coffee
Dinner :
* Harira
* Lamb Tajine with prunes Harira
* Oranges with cinnamon, fruit, tea, coffee
* Cheese Briouats
* M'Qalli chicken with lemon and olives, sautéed potatoes
* Semolina desert, fruit, tea, coffee
* Potato and carrot salad
* Chicken Pastilla
* Almond Briouats, fruit, tea, coffee

Comments about UGG Logo Mitten:
Good so far, but it hasn't been super cold, which is what I bought them far. It is an expensive purchase that is very cute and fits well, but were bought to fill a specific need and I thought they would have been thicker. Others I showed them to were also surprised. I just think they should have been thicker and that might be what stopped wind from penetrating. If my fingers get cold on days in the high teens and wind, I will be very disappointed. Plus, I don't know if this is just part of shearling for the hands, but after only 3 usses there are already darkened spots in various places.
Service and delivery comments:
I bought for the coldest days in NYC. I don't know that this will do the trick. I thought the shearling would be thicker and so did others to who I showed them. So far, they have been good, but it hasn't been super cold and I do feel the wind going through. Plus, I have worn them just 3 times and for not a lot of time and there are darkened spots in various spots. Is this normal with shearling?

Comments about UGG Logo Mitten:
I LOVE these mittens! It's like having Ugg boots for your hands. If you think they are amazing on your feet you should try these for your hands. I never have cold hands anymore! I have very poor blood circulation and carpal tunnel syndrome, which when combined with cold weather is VERY painful on my fingers. I cannot wear gloves bc the seperation of my fingers makes them get cold quickly and once cold they have a really hard time getting warm again. These mittens keep my fingers close so they stay warm. I don't even have to put my hands in my pockets anymore :)I have had the same pair for two years and they are in great shape. I am thinking of getting another color to match with my new boots.
Comments about UGG Logo Mitten:
These are the warmest mittens ever and if you were stuck in antarctica with only one thing, you woud want these. They feel amazing inside but do look kind of ugly at first glance. trust me, you learn to love them lol. i have three pairs because they get a bit worn out when you wear them as much as i do.

Mayo Clinic partners with Ireland to fund medical research
Dr. Vijay Singh is a gastroenterologist with the Mayo Clinic and the inventor of a new medical device aimed at treating acute pancreatitis.
He said the device helps cool the stomach, which is located next to the pancreas, and can help reduce inflammation.
Now with the help of Enterprise Ireland, Singh said the project is moving into the next phase of testing.
"To move a thing from the bench to the bedside (in the United States) can be a fairly challenging task," he said. "Just because of the logistics and resources, (it) cannot reach the bedside."
He said the partnership could be a road map for future testing of medical products because it is providing an alternative source of funding while it difficult to obtain research funding in the U.S.
"The benefit as I see is there is a hope of taking similar technologies from the bench to the bedside, make it more relevant to our patients, help them more," he said.
"I can generate an idea, the concept, show in proof or principle that this makes sense, show it's feasibility � but that where my resources and my skill stops."
Enterprise Ireland has agreed to give $16 million to the partnership and further development of Singh's device is already underway at the National University of Ireland, Galway.

Resistron a Conundrum in the limit can filaments switching be bulk?
If the size of the area of a filament type memory device is reduced to the point where the filament is the same diameter as the device electrode area, can that now be considered as a bulk switching effect?
If the switching depends on the collapse of the pre-switching current into a nucleating point then it might be expected that the contact area of such a device would always need to be larger than the filament. These would be devices where thermal effects play a major role in the switching event.
However, in a device where conducting precursors determine the location of the filament (i.e. devices that normally require forming) the location of the filament would be positioned stochastically.
In those devices where defects allow some form of true bulk switching effect in a region close to the surface of one electrode with the defects or metal precipitates acting as a series resistor carrying most of the current through the bulk which have been alluded to here in the comments. Is a type which might be considered filament for large area and might claim to be bulk with scaling but as the electrode area is reduced will only work if the required defect path is certain to be present.
Would a multi-filament device where the set current would determine the number of filaments that come into play (weakest first) be considered a filament device or when the total area is involved a pseudo bulk switching device?

Did you know that the necktie originated in Croatia? Neither did I. But according to this item on The New Yorker's Photo Booth blog, October 18 is Cravat Day in Croatia, a day when the country celebrates its status as the creators of cravats in the seventeenth century. James Pomerantz has put together a great slide show of male neckwear-related photographs shot all over the world by Magnum photographers.
I've never been a fan of wearing ties so it should come as no surprise that I've never given much thought to the invention of a fashion accessory I think of as a decorative noose. Plenty of people have devoted time and energy to thinking about it, however, as Academia Cravatica makes clear. This non-profit has been in existence since 1997, having been started to promote and educate how the cravat is an important part of both Croatian and world heritage.
According to the site: "These neck scarves were a part of Croatian battle dress and a kind of identification because uniforms did not exist at the time." Because of all the warring going on across Europe during the seventeenth century the trend covered some ground and was adopted by the French, Belgians, and the Dutch. Academia Cravatica posits that "theoretically, [there are] 85 ways to knot a cravat, only a dozen of knots suit the usual notions of symmetry and balance." But it was the English, in the nineteenth century, who overhauled the cravat, tweaking it into the ascot and then the more traditional tie, with a knot named after the Duke of Windsor.
Of course, Magnum is the world's preeminent photography agency and the images collected in this slide show really drive home how male neckwear has traveled around the world, folded and knotted into indigenous traditions and lifestyles. Yes, there are photographs of Japanese salarymen riding the train and a early '80s New York Wall Street type slumming it in a graffiti-covered subway car, but the most surprising, and interesting, images come from war zones and developing economies where the tie represents some sort of normalcy, no matter how out of place it might seem to outsiders looking in from afar.

I have been at Arlington High School for 24 years and I love Arlington. I cannot imagine teaching
anywhere else. I went to Smith college where I received a BA in Biology and then I worked on whales for
a few years. I went to graduate school at the Oregon Institute of Marine biology and Bard College where
I received my MS in Environmental Science. I also went to Vassar College where I received my New York
State secondary education teacher certification.
I still participate in research projects. In fact I am presently studying the endangered Blandings turtles
that live on our school property. For fun, I love to SCUBA dive and hike. I am just about to become a
46er!! (note: a 46er is a person who has hiked all the 46 high peaks in New York state)
I live in Arlington and my kids have benefitted from being is this district. I have 2 kids, 3 cats, 1 dog and
4 snakes, 1 turtle, and dozens of fish. You will soon meet many of these creatures in the Arlington
Aquarium Room.
I have been a science teacher for 24 years and I believe science is a
creative process that continually changes and develops over time. It is
never static. There is so much to learn about the world we live in. I feel
teaching not only gives me an opportunity to share my love of science with
students, but it also enables me to learn new things on a continual basis. I
have never thought of teaching as a job, but rather a fascinating journey
that exposes me to new discoveries and novel ways of thinking on a daily
basis. This is what I strive to pass on to my own students. I want my AP
Biology, Marine Biology and Research students to explore myriad challenges,
gather and analyze data, and continually ask new questions.
The new structure and framework of AP Biology 2012-13 will allow
me to teach students that science, and in particular biology, is more than
just a collection of facts. The inquiry based, process-oriented approach to
AP Biology will allow myself and my students to really understand how our
previous and future knowledge, new and old observations and background
readings can lead to new experiments and discoveries in biology. It is quite
clear to me that we do not know everything in science. I want my students
to realize how much we don't know, and more importantly, I want to give
my students the tools to find their own answers to new questions and to
make their own new discoveries.

Baseball-loving Kentucky teen becomes a true hunter
By Mackenzie Hicks
Growing up in eastern Kentucky, your life usually revolves around two things: high school sports and hunting.
I've played baseball ever since I can remember, and besides baseball, the only other thing I usually do is sleep. This comes from my dad's side of the family.
I'm 19 now and play college baseball, but I believe my mother's side of the family kicked in when fall baseball practice ended this year. I got an uncontrollable urge to go hunting!
I called my uncle, Steve Wells, and asked him to show me the ropes. He is known locally for his feats in the outdoors, and I hoped he could help me take my first deer.
Uncle Steve had just returned with a 300-inch bull elk from Colorado, so he was still pumped up and in hunting mode, which he rarely gets out of. He said to come on down, and he would let me borrow a gun.
I could tell he was excited that I'd wanted to pick up on that side of my family's obsession.
After getting my tags and licenses, Uncle Steve took me to the treestand I'd be using in the morning. He gave me a cram session of deer hunting.
All the knowledge he'd learned in a lifetime of hunting was way too much for someone to even begin to learn in a year, much less in a few hours. Nevertheless, I was excited.
The following morning I got up way earlier than I'm accustomed to, and before sunrise, I found myself in a treestand in the dark woods holding my uncle's 7mm.
I was completely out of my element, but I tried my best to sit still and quiet.
As the morning progressed, I saw nothing but a few squirrels. They entertained me for hours, but I was getting restless even though I was enjoying the peace and serenity of the woods. Ten a.m. rolled around, and we left the woods to go to church.
After the service, we went to the local lakeside market, got a couple of cheeseburgers and went back to try it again.
Uncle Steve took me to a different spot this time where we found a good sized rub (I had no idea what a rub was), and some tracks.
He dropped me off and said he'd come back before dark or if he heard me shoot.
Before he left, Uncle Steve gave me some last minute pointers. He told me if I ever got my first deer, I'd be hooked. Then he smiled, winked and drove off.
Once again, I sat alone in the woods waiting and, eventually, getting restless.
Although getting up to walk around went against my uncle's advice, I had to stretch my legs.
After walking for a bit, my heart stopped when I spotted a whitetail prancing through the woods. It was a doe, and as it disappeared, I recalled my uncle's educational talk about the rut and how bucks chase does.
With this in mind, I slowly made my way back to the spot where he dropped me off at the big rub, hoping a buck would head through there to get that doe.
As I rested beneath a tree, tired, covered in briars, and knowing that soon I had to get back home to head to night school, I slowly began to lose hope of ever becoming a true hunter. I told myself I'd wait a few more minutes, and then head home to get ready for class.
I turned my head to look over my shoulder one last time, and there he came, walking out of the woods!
When I saw antler, my heart started pounding, a lump formed in my throat and my breath got short. I'm sure y'all know the feeling!
The huge buck was walking about 50 yards away from my shade tree when it suddenly looked straight at me. I froze.
My mind went blank and my body stiff until the buck finally looked away to start grazing.
I snapped to my senses and knew it was time to make a move. As slowly as I could, I raised the gun. There was nothing to rest it on, so I had to take an offhand shot.
I remembered where Uncle Steve told me to aim, so I found the buck's shoulder in my crosshairs. I was pretty shaky, as you can imagine, and then the buck looked up at me again. My heart sank as I was sure it had spotted me.
It turned and trotted toward the thicket it had come from.
I followed it with my scope until, in a moment of awesomeness, it stopped.
I knew it was now or never and slowly squeezed the trigger. The buck dropped right in its tracks!
As the ringing in my ears dazed me, it seemed as though time slowed down, like it does in those memories you never forget.
Out of pure emotion, I let out a big whoop.
I ran over to see my first buck, and I did the only thing I knew to do. I knelt on one knee and gave glory and thanks to the Good Lord for what had just happened.
After taking a picture with my phone, I excitedly went up the trail to yell to my uncle that I'd gotten one.
He came over, and I showed him the picture. Uncle Steve said, "Get in the truck right now!" Not knowing anything about what makes a buck big, I didn't realize just how big this one was.
It was one of the greatest moments of my life, and my uncle was right, I'm now hooked!
Now I find myself wanting to do nothing else but be out in the woods, and I can't wait until next season.
I give all the glory to God and am very thankful for my Uncle Steve Wells for taking the time to teach me about hunting and for putting me on my first buck. I'm also thankful for my parents who paid to get the buck mounted for me.
I hope ya'll enjoyed my story, and best of luck to you in your upcoming season!

Deus Ex: The Fall Releases Early on iTunes App Store
By - Source: Eurogamer | 4 comments
Someone at Square Enix got a little bit antsy...
This week, Square Enix revealed that Deus Ex: The Fall, the mobile game sequel to the Human Revolution prequel book 'The Icarus Effect', was due for a Thursday, July 11 release date.
Apparently, Square Enix jumped the gun, because Deus Ex: The Fall is available now in the app store.
As previously promised, The Fall will cost $6.99 and is only available for iPad 3 and above, iPad Mini, iPhone 4S and above, and iPod Touch 5 and above.

0drakennz , July 10, 2013 6:27 PMIt's not really jumping the gun if you consider it's already the 11th in many parts of the world?
-1dns7950 , July 10, 2013 9:48 PMReleasing a game for crApple products first is an EPIC FAIL.. I think I've spent more time playing the original Deus Ex than any other game to date, and I loved Human Revolution, but if Square Enix doesn't bring this to Android in the next couple months I'll never buy another product from them. I would bet money that Eidos finished it and Square Enix is just holding off on Android because Apple payed them. I hope it comes out soon, I really don't want to have to boycott Final Fantasy.

Tricia AKA @GimmeUnusual
My Comments
@JesusIsMySavior - I'm $100 poorer...bought both of Ginuwine's CDs I was missing...bought Lesson In Love by Lloyd, Got Jeremih's new CD, Tony Rich Project & Kem's new CD. Then I got 2 erotic books. Not bad - I bought some stuff used off Amazon.
Oops - forgot about the Mixtapes: This is sooo hard. I can't just pick one...I have so many favorites: "Feelin' Myself, "You Ain't My Gurl", "Famous", & "Every Girl", "It Would Be You", & "Bed"...oh & I like "Ego."
@JesusIsMySavior - I actually enjoyed his BET performance. I didn't think he sounded bad...but maybe I was blinded by his good looks. I'll have to listen to it again with my eyes closed. LMAO For me he only messed up at that concert (on My Moment) & on 106 & Park (10 year anniversary) show, but I know for 106 & Park he was just doing too much. I think that week he was on Monique, FUSE, Wendy Williams, 106, and then he did some radio shows & it was all within a couple days. He was doing too much & his voice gave out. I remember Tweeting him that day before he did 106 that he was doing too much & he needs to rest - then he still was leaving 106 & going to Monique. He works too hard sometimes for us!
I'm on Amazon.com now sampling the 2 CDs that I didn't know anything about...I'll decide rather or not I'm going to buy one or both after I listen to them. I missed "Back II Da Basics" & "A Man's Thoughts" - Do U have both of those?
I hoped no one swiped my CD either...but I already know who did it...my brother. He did the same thing to my Tony Rich Project album. Has anyone ever heard that one? As a matter of fact Imma have to buy that one again right now. I SOOOO LOVE that album. It's mellow all the way through.
Chicago didn't get a pre-sale either. I'm cool though because I sucked it up & just paid more for my good seats. People bought the tickets & then put them up for sale on eBay & TicketsNow.com I checked both sites & bought the tickets within my budget. I really wanted to go & I really wanted to be close, so I spent $200 per ticket. It is what it is.

LAFAYETTE, La. – United States Attorney Stephanie A. Finley announced today that Buddy Estelle, 52, of New Iberia, La., pleaded guilty before U.S. Magistrate Judge Patrick Hanna to taking more than $86,000 in Social Security Administration (SSA) benefits to which he was not entitled.
According to evidence presented at the guilty plea, Estelle started receiving SSA disability payments in 1984. While attending a routine meeting concerning his benefit eligibility on Feb. 8, 2011, he told SSA staff members at the New Iberia office that he had not worked since 2000. During the guilty plea, Estelle admitted that he has been self-employed since 2000. He owns a business that buys and crushes cars. The SSA payments that Estelle improperly received totaled $86,261.30.
Estelle faces up to five years in prison, a $250,000 fine, restitution, and three years of supervised release for theft of government funds. A sentencing date of January, 10, 2014 was set.
The Social Security Administration and the Louisiana State Police conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney James T. McManus is prosecuting the case.

You have to feel for picture day portrait artists. There are only so many ways to take a worthwhile picture of a man's face without getting too cute. After pouring over enough boring head shots from MLB's various picture days, you soon gain an appreciation for those who at least try.
Try to make your shots interesting, even if it only ends in tears like poor, pensive Strasburg seen above. At least you tried.
Without further ado, hit the jump for some of the best and beardiest of this year's picture day photos! Vote for your favorite beard in the comment section.
Early contender for best beard, if not best man. Jayson Werth, I want you to teach me things. Things about life and things about livin', man.
Lots of fun had at Joba's expense re: his inexplicable moustache. I say go with, Joba. Go with it and OWN it.
Poor Eli Whiteside. The well-travelled catcher was waived and claimed three times in the moment it took for the camera lens to open and close in capturing this photo.
This is what "getting too cute" looks like. The entire Giants team took weird photos inside this old-style jacuzzi tub. Which is just about the weirdest thing I've seen.
Beard alert! Andrew Miller looks right as well as terrifying!
Pretty excited for Justin Sellers' follow-up 7″ to the stand out Death Before DFA release with "Joe Torre can suck it" inscribed on the record matrix.
Looking sharp, Andrew Cashner. Really think this will be a good year for you, bro. Wait, hurt again? Less bullish on your future, homey.
It's good to be (afraid of) the King.
No words. Not a one.
Strong beard entry from Jason Motte. Should be bulletproof by October.
Jason Giambi is both intense and in his forties. A deadly combination – literally. Watch that blood pressure, Giambino.
Heath Bell needed a hug after a tough season but nobody stepped up to the plate so Bell took care of it himself.
A boy and his dream job, together at last.

In 2006, director Zack Snyder went to a comic-book convention in San Diego to preview his new movie 300, based on Frank Miller's graphic story. He walked away with a storm of buzz that helped propel his sword-and-CG opus to blockbuster box office the following spring and transformed himself into a Hollywood power player.
Next week, Snyder will return to Comic-Con, hoping for a similar response to his follow-up: Watchmen, adapted from the acclaimed 1986 comic by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, a brainy, byzantine, and brilliant skewering of superhero archetypes, and a reality-based reassembly of the entire genre. It's a hallowed cult-pop artifact that many had deemed unfilmable, but Snyder may have proven them wrong. In the following interview, he tells us about his uniquely geeky roots and why he thinks mainstream culture is ready for Watchmen's twisted take on superheroes.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: First 300, now Watchmen have you always been a comics fan?
ZACK SNYDER: I came to comic books through my mother. I loved fantasy art I love Frank Frazetta [the famed illustrator known for adult-oriented, sword-and-sorcery, and sci-fi imagery]. I went to boarding school. You weren't allowed too many posters up, and everything I set up was slightly inappropriate. Frazetta's naked girls, ripped up guys the kids were like, ''What the hell?!'' They had their Boy George posters up, I had crazy Frazetta. My mother saw I was into this comic called Heavy Metal magazine, so she got me a subscription. You could call it ''high-brow'' comics, but to me, that comic book was just pretty sexy! I had a buddy who tried getting me into ''normal'' comic books, but I was all like, ''No one is having sex or killing each other. This isn't really doing it for me.'' I was a little broken, that way. So when Watchmen came along, I was, ''This is more my scene.''
Your mom sounds pretty cool.
She's just a little bit on the edge. She always did inappropriate stuff when we were kids, like teaching us how to toilet-paper the neighbor's house or lighting fireworks. She was a gifted painter and amazing photographer. Just a free spirit. I bought a movie camera and started making movies when I was 11. It was a really cheap camera and it wasn't really working for me, so she bought me the best camera she could find. Awesome camera. I had it forever. My mom always encouraged me, it was never weird. She'd look at Heavy Metal and go ''Woo-hoo!''
Watchmen was published in comic-book form in 1986 but you discovered the story in its graphic novel a few years later when you were in college, right?
I had seen it in the store when it first came out as a comic, but I never got the first issue, and I couldn't get into it at the middle; I felt like I missed it a little bit.
NEXT PAGE: ''Watchmen...almost superimposes its heroes on your world, which then changes how you view your world through its prism. That's the genius of this book.''

Photo Release -- Amarin Reports First Quarter 2013 Financial Results And Provides Update On Operations
Vascepa supply update
In the fourth quarter of 2012, Amarin submitted two sNDAs, one each for two additional active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) suppliers for Vascepa: BASF and Chemport. Both of these sNDA filings were approved in April 2013. Qualification of these suppliers is part of Amarin's strategy to expand its supply chain to provide greater capacity to meet anticipated demand, enable supply diversification and flexibility and introduce cost competition among high quality suppliers. With the approval of these suppliers, Amarin now has three qualified API suppliers for Vascepa, enabling Amarin to potentially reduce supply costs by 50% or more.
Vascepa exclusivity update
Amarin continues to make significant progress in its effort to expand patent protection for Vascepa and now has 22 patents issued or allowed in the United States with over 30 additional U.S. patent applications being prosecuted. This patent portfolio includes claims covering Vascepa's pharmaceutical composition and methods of use for the MARINE indication, ANCHOR indication and other potential uses of Vascepa. Amarin is also pursuing patent applications related to Vascepa in multiple jurisdictions outside the United States. All but two of the granted patents have expiry dates extending into 2030 and the majority of patent applications, if and when allowed, are anticipated to have expiry dates in or beyond 2030. Patent protection for Vascepa is augmented by protection provided by trade secrets, manufacturing barriers to entry and three- or five-year regulatory exclusivity.REDUCE-IT and other Vascepa-related clinical development Amarin continues to progress patient enrollment in its REDUCE-IT cardiovascular outcomes study with more than 4,000 patients enrolled in the study to date. Amarin anticipates continuing to enroll patients in this study throughout 2013. Results of the study will not be available until a specified number of cardiovascular events have been observed, the timing of which is not expected in the near-term.

Recently we've found bed bugs in my place, harmless except for the red spots of irritation on hands and arms after they've vampired you at night. But there is a way to kill them without chemicals, it's micro-organisms that eat bugs, that's how these micro's survive, so I didn't feel bad getting rid of these nuisances in a completely natural way. Of course you can't eat the micro-organisms either or you'll get sick for a few hours but that's easy, you just don't lick the floor! LOL

I don't feel too bad about killing most insects because I know they don't feel pain the same way we do (you could say "at all" but there is the chance of some sort of emotional stress/pain). But there are some insects, like some types of moths or black ants, that I like to watch, and would feel bad killing.
I hate wasps with all the dark side of my heart and have no problem frying them to death with the bug zapper thing that looks like a tennis racquet. I usually catch spiders with a glass and have someone throw them outside (because I'm scared of them), but if there are no glasses handy, or the spider is in front of the glass cabinet, then I throw shoes at it until it's dead or crippled, the slap it a few more times with the shoe for good measure...
If I see a woodlouse or silverfish in the house, I generally just let them be. I don't even bother catching them and throwing them out.

RELEASED: Oct. 8, 2008
EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Network of Unitarian Universalist Students will sponsor a program with author Peter Myers about his recently published book, "Frederick Douglass: Race and the Rebirth of American Liberalism."
The program, "Frederick Douglass: The Original Audacity of Hope," will begin at 7 p.m. Oct. 22 in Room 100 of Schneider Hall.
Myers, a UW-Eau Claire professor of political science, will discuss how understanding the writings and life of former slave Frederick Douglass can enable one to develop a deeper sense of the context of the issues and events of the 2008 political season.
The free public program is cosponsored by the departments of history, political science, English, and philosophy and religious studies.
For more information, contact Tim Hirsch, UW-Eau Claire emeritus professor of English, at 715-832-0410.
