Despite the ongoing drought in Central Texas, arborists are trying to keep up the region's tree canopy.
And as development continues to bring more homes and jobs to Austin, it also brings growing pains, including the loss of green space to new buildings and paved parking lots.
To combat that loss, Austin Energy has partnered with local non-profit Tree Folks to plant 10,000 trees throughout Austin neighborhoods each year.
"What we want to do is reduce the urban heat island effect by planting trees along the street," Greg Mast with Tree Folks said. "When they are mature, they will shade the pavement, and it won't get quite so hot."
In order for the trees to be effective, they have to be planted within 15 feet of the curb.
"It's OK to plant these trees near a power line. That's why we offer the smaller stature trees," Mast said.
Michael Embesi is the city's on-staff arborist. His job is to keep Austin's tree canopy healthy.
"The natural environment plays a very important part into monitoring our urban forest," Embesi said.
Despite a persistent drought that began in 2010, nearly one-third of Austin is still covered by trees, but it will take the help of willing homeowners and nonprofits to keep it that way.
Prime tree planting season is October through March.
Tree Folks encourages anyone with a blue or yellow flag in their yard to claim and plant the tree before the weather heats up. You can do so by visiting TreeFolks.org.

I vividly remember listening to this show when it first aired Jan 26 1977.I was in bed the lights out wearing my headphones it was snowing outside just like in the episode. Listened to it again on Halloween 2011 still gives me the shivers!

The synopsis makes it sounds like a Scooby Doo episodes, but its actually a great listen!

This is an adaptation of a story by Captain Frederick Marryat who apparently wrote other adventure stories (some for children). This one, however, doesn't have very many winners, but unlike some similar episodes where families are profoundly affected ("The night of the wolf" (a totally different storyline), "Out of focus", "The real printer's devil") I had a certain enjoyment of it...kind of like the feeling one gets trading stories around a nighttime camp fire. Norman Rose plays a kindly man who is a fugitive no longer on the run. He's got three children, an older, devoted son who is sick with a debilitating illness (the episode opens up as he's getting bled by their family doctor), an older daughter and a middle school aged son. The doctor knows Rose's secret...he was a Romanian nobleman's valet who killed his wife in a fit of passion after she was bedding his (Rose's) wealthy employer. Rose has moved the family to a remote cabin in the Hartz Mountains in Bavaria. There are more secrets out there, though...a wolf keeps howling in the distance. The doctor says it will stop when he leaves, as it can smell blood. Later, Rose's character and his oldest son are hunting the wolf, which keeps howling in the distance. The son thinks he sees it, and draws a bead on it with his rifle, but is stopped by his Dad...who says what the son sees is no wolf, but a beautiful woman. This is a fascinating tale.

This story is gothic horror at its best! Very atmospheric. You can almost feel the wet snow faillng on your shivering cheeks. Nothing quite like the howl of a wolf late at night! Norman Rose and Kristoffer Tabori are first--rate. Jada Rowland also contributes nicely. You really feel her growing fear and foreboding. The ending may be one of the bleakest and darkest RMT offered. (Very clever way to kill a werewolf-- though-- If Not Drastic!) No happy ending for any of the characters. I stated once before, that's what makes RMT so compelling-- never knowing how it's going to end-- they always managed to keep you guessing to the very end! Great Choice!!! Until Next Time.........................

One really can't predict who's gonna git it. I've mentioned being a bachelor before, but I swear to Apollo that I used to date this girl. Well anyway, she seemed to draw sustanence from draining my heart's blood, I can tell you that much. I remember talking to her dad once, when she and I were getting kinda serious, and he asked me to swear to the most outlandish things; somehow I had the fortitude to say no and so avoided this kind of inevitable gruesome carnage. I count my stars; do you think it really was the same girl?
N. King, 2013-01-24 10:00:15
The White Wolf is a contender for best RMT ever (I rank it second). The show creates a very creepy atmosphere and the ending is very clever. I wish RMT had tackled the werewolf theme more often. The only other werewolf show I can recall was Night of the Howling Dog. An outstanding selection that would make my Best Of..... list.
Charlie S., 2013-01-24 10:00:17
Yep, this is a real good one! Finally got through it LOL!
Mr. Carbonel, 2013-01-24 10:00:18
Excellent show. Couple of things: 1. If you read the original ending to the story "The white wolf of the Hartz mountains" which inspired this show as it was written back in the day by Frederick Maryat, the ending is still - dark and bleak but - er, "different". (One hint - instead of a winter temperate climate, the ending appears to take place in a tropical one, with a different type of apex predator. ) 2. Great use of music, as usual. 3. I learned a new word I hadn't heard of before in this episode: "Margrave". 4. The theme of judgment (against Norman Rose's character) was a powerful subtext here. 5. Back to "Hartz Mountains" - too bad they didn't play the commercial for the eponymous pet care product that sometimes ran in the RMT: "And teach a flea...it's no fun to be...a flea anymore."
Rael M., 2013-01-24 10:00:18
Just read in the morning paper that Larry Haines died at age 89 on July 17. He played Stu Bergman on "Search for Tomorrow" for almost the show's entire run from 1951 to 1986-- winning 2 Day time emmys for the role. He also had a successful career on Broadway. And, as we all know, he was in numerous RMT's.

Does caffeine raise blood pressure?

Does caffeine raise your blood pressure?
Dear Reader,
In people with normal blood pressure, it appears that caffeine may cause a temporary increase in blood pressure. This is becasue caffeine is a vasoconstrictor — that is, it can narrow blood vessels. Some folks develop a tolerance to caffeine, and it no longer has this effect. But above all, it is important to know that there is no evidence that caffeine can cause high blood pressure, also known as hypertension.
For individuals with high-normal blood pressure or diagnosed hypertension, however, caffeine seems to raise their levels to a much greater degree than those with normal readings. Therefore, a person who has hypertension should try to avoid caffeine.
For reference, classification of blood pressure is as follows:
|Systolic in mm Hg (top #)
|Diastolic in mm Hg (bottom#)
|Stage 1 HBP
|Stage 2 HBP
For your average joe, Because of the temporary rise in blood pressure triggered by caffeine in some people, it's probably a good idea to refrain from a cup of joe just before a blood pressure test. It's also important to realize that chocolate, soda, and energy drinks all have various amounts of caffeine.
For those who cannot give up good ol' java, decaffeinated coffee may serve as a suitable substitute, with a typical caffeine content of about 5 mg per 8 oz. cup (versus around 135 mg of caffeine for the regular brew). For those seeking an alternative beverage altogether, hot cocoa is a choice that also contains approximately 5 mg of caffeine per 8 oz. mug, plus it contributes calcium and the oh-so-sought-after (for some) taste of chocolate! There are also herbal teas, which contain no caffeine and are available in a variety of flavors. More options can be found at your local health foods store, including non-caffeinated herbal or grain beverages.

RELEASED: Aug. 18, 2010
EAU CLAIRE — As has happened in 12 of the past 15 years, a number of University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire students will be housed in area hotels this fall.
The university can accommodate 3,927 students in its residence halls, and requests for housing have exceeded that number by approximately 267 — 41 more than last year, said Charles Major, director of Housing and Residence Life at UW-Eau Claire.
The Plaza Hotel & Suites and Americas Best Value Inn, selected following a bidding process, will house the additional students for the fall semester.
Approximately 162 freshmen, returning and transfer students will live at The Plaza. Another 105 returning and transfer students will live at Americas Best Value Inn.
In the past, an effort was made to avoid placing freshmen in the hotels, but the increase in demand for campus housing has made that difficult to avoid, Major said, noting that students consistently have had a positive experience living in area hotels.
"The hotels are treated as off-campus residence halls that have live-in resident assistants as well as hall directors who oversee the programs in the hotels for students," he said.
Major added that students living in the hotels will have ready access to all UW-Eau Claire campus services, with city buses making stops at the hotels on a 30-minute schedule throughout the day. A university shuttle will be available after the buses stop running until 1 a.m.
It is likely that the majority of students will be housed in UW-Eau Claire residence halls for the second semester.
"In the majority of the past 15 years we've been able to accommodate all students back on campus for the second semester because of the number of on-campus students who graduate at the end of first semester as well as those who study abroad in the second semester," Major said.

Ronald Louis "Ron" Ziegler (May 12, 1939 – February 10, 2003)[3] was White House Press Secretary and Assistant to the President during United States President Richard Nixon's administration.[3]
Early life[edit]
Ziegler was born to Louis Daniel Ziegler, a production manager, and Ruby (Parsons), in Covington, Kentucky.[3] He was raised religiously as a Missouri Synod Lutheran.[4]
He attended Concordia Lutheran School and graduated the 8th grade in 1953. He graduated from Dixie Heights High School in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky.[3] Ziegler first attended Xavier University in Cincinnati.[3] He transferred to the University of Southern California in 1958 and graduated in 1961 with a degree in government and politics.[3] While at USC, he was initiated into the Sigma Chi fraternity.
He worked at Disneyland as a skipper on the popular Adventureland attraction, The Jungle Cruise.[3] He later worked as a press aide on Nixon's unsuccessful California gubernatorial campaign in 1962.[3] Subsequently Ziegler worked with H. R. Haldeman, who later served as President Nixon's White House Chief of Staff, at advertising firm J. Walter Thompson.[5]
White House appointments from 1969[edit]
In 1969, when he was just 29, Ziegler became the youngest White House Press Secretary in history. He was also the first Press Secretary to use the White House Press Briefing Room when it was completed in 1970. Historically, White House Press Secretaries were recruited from the ranks of individuals with substantial journalistic experience; among these were Stephen Early and Pierre Salinger, begging the question of whether Ziegler was hired less for a reputation of substantial journalistic achievement than for perceived loyalty to what became an inner circle in the White House.
He was the White House press secretary for the Nixon administration during the political scandal known as Watergate. In 1972, he dismissed the first report of the break-in at the Watergate Hotel as the discussion of a "third rate burglary," but within two years Nixon had resigned under threat of impeachment.
Some of Ziegler's public statements from this period reflect an ostensible commitment to democratic civics which in hindsight was not borne out by the facts. For example, in 1970 CIA security adviser Dan Mitrione, whose later reputation as the promoter of torture techniques became substantiated, was assassinated in Uruguay. It fell to Ziegler to give to reporters a eulogy which in hindsight seemed generously optimistic.[6]
In 1974 he became Assistant to the President.
Strong personal identification with Nixon[edit]
Particularly in the period following the resignations of such senior administration officials as Bob Haldeman and John Ehrlichman, Ziegler became one of Nixon's closest aides and confidants, defending the President until the bitter end, urging Nixon not to resign, but rather fight impeachment in the Senate.
During the unfolding political scandal, Ziegler himself appeared at least 33 times before Congress.
Continuing closeness to Nixon[edit]
Unlike many other former aides after President Nixon's resignation in 1974, Ziegler remained very close to him. Ziegler was on the airplane that Mr. Nixon took to Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, near San Clemente as Gerald Ford was sworn into office.
On November 12, 1999, Ziegler was due to participate by telephone in a television panel discussion that included several former Nixon and Ford aides, including his successor as White House Press Secretary, Jerald terHorst, who resigned in protest at President Ford's pardon of Nixon. However, Ziegler's feed failed to hook up for the session, which went on without him. [See: Jerald terHorst#Reflections .]
Truck stop and chain drug store advocacy[edit]
In 1988, Ziegler became president and chief executive of the National Association of Chain Drug Stores, living in Alexandria, Virginia.[3] He was previously known as President of the National Association of Truck Stop Operators.[7] He was described by leading truck stop advocate William Fay as "a significant factor in expanding the travel plaza and truckstop industry's presence in the nation's capital." Hay further credited Ziegler as having achieved "great strides in membership recruitment and expansion of member services." [8]
He moved to Coronado Shores (Coronado, California) where he died of a heart attack at the age of 63.[3]
In popular culture[edit]
Ziegler appears in the 1976 film All the President's Men as himself in archival news footage.
Ziegler is portrayed in the 1995 Oliver Stone film Nixon by David Paymer.

Good Rec for a Nose Revision here in Los Angeles
Looking for a good surgen here in LA to do a revision on my nose (I'm a male), my nostrils have become a little bigger over time, I have had two surgeries, the last from Dr. Kamer who has since retired....
Here is a list of doctors I have been reading about...
Any reccomendations?
Dr Torkian
Dr. Rollin Daniel
Paul S. Nassif, MD
Babak Azizzadeh
Stephen J. Pincus, MD
Andrew S. Frankel
Richard W. Fleming, MD
I know Raj Kanodia is a top one and he did a friend of mines who is an actor and it turned out nice, but he is expenise.
Any good or bad things and any other names that might be worth looking into...thanks!
What is the best way to research someone? Does anyone have any rec's besides the ones on the list I gave?
You can either look them up as stated by the previous poster or go to plastic surgeon's city (whether he works out of Bev Hills, Encino, etc.) municipal court and you can find out if any actions were taken against that doctor.
Anyone have an experience with Dr. David Sayah....?
Dr. Solieman & Dr. Litner Rhinoplasty
Any comments or recommendations on these doctors? after going to many rhinoplasty consultations i thought Dr. Solieman and Dr. Litner were the one but after hearing some negative things i cannot make a final decision anymore. any opinions?
Hi MK94, can I ask what negative things you've heard about S&L? I'm considering them for a primary and there is very little 'real' patient feedback available so I worry that they're too good to be true. I'm also looking for a great surgeon in the LA area; so hard to find someone conservative and skilled

3 Essential Elements for Apple's iWatch Success
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- With the Samsung and Qualcomm (QCOM) watches officially unveiled, the elephant in the room is now Apple (AAPL).
Samsung's attempt at a watch is destined to fail because it lacks a "must have" application that differentiates it from a smartphone. It won't be easy to find a target market willing to pay $299 for mirrored functionality between the two devices. Apple will experience a similar fate if it chooses a similar approach to the iWatch.
Yes, Internet scrolling, email, iMessaging, social networking apps, health monitoring, camera's and weather are nice to have access to, but all such functionality has been tried and tested on the wrist without significant success.We are so convinced that such mirrored functionality is doomed to failure that if Apple were to come out with an iWatch that performs anything like the Samsung watch or even the Nike (NKE) fuelband we would transition our bullish thesis on the company into a bearish one ahead of the expected iWatch launch in 2014. The forfeited opportunity cost would flood AAPL action with negative uncertainty. To our knowledge, there has never been a watch that sold more than a few million units in a quarter. Apple needs to grow this new product category into 20 million units per quarter if it hopes to move the needle. If Tim Cook and company are serious about creating a viable new product category, then the following three elements are essential:
iWatch should do something that iPhone doesn't do.
iWatch should do something that that is enhanced by the wrist security.
iWatch should have so much high tech built into it that the product costs $400 or more and is sold with a subsidy.

BILLINGS - Graduation is right around the corner for many area seniors; but what about the students are not graduating?
Montana Education Secretary, Denise Juneau, was in Billings today, promoting her program: Graduation Matters Montana. The program aims to cut the dropout rate in Montana in half by 2014.
Juneau came bearing a $10,000 grant for Billings schools to use for this program. Juneau also visited Hardin and Libby with similar grants. The program is taylored for specific areas, looking at rural verses urban, and other factors.
In 2011, the state's graduation rate was 82% - up from 80% in 2010. Billings West High's 2011 graduation rate was 82%. Skyview's was 79%, and Billings Senior High's was 73%.

Implementing President Obama's health-care reform law was never going to be an easy. Its complexity makes it one of the biggest domestic policy challenges ever undertaken by the federal government.
And Republican opposition to the law at every turn has only made implementation harder. The GOP will stop at nothing in its attempts to derail the law.
But yesterday's surprise announcement delaying the large employer mandate until after the 2014 midterm elections was a political earthquake inside the Beltway.
Said Speaker John Boehner in a statement: "This is a clear acknowledgment that the law is unworkable, and it underscores the need to repeal the law and replace it with effective, patient-centered reforms."
Making matters worse, the Treasury Department made the statement while President Obama was on Air Force One returning from Africa. Putting out an announcement just before the July 4th holiday only made it seem as if the administration was trying to bury it.
The perception is terrible for Democrats. GOP lawmakers suggested the implementation is going badly and threatened to make it a big issue in the midterm elections once again. As First Read wisely notes, "When it comes to politics, perception matters — a lot. And the perception could give political foes the idea they have a chance at stopping the law, which in turn could lead to less cooperation."
Rick Klein points out that "this is a blow in every conceivable way to the Obama administration — an admission that its signature legislative accomplishment isn't ready for prime time, just as the law's critics have been arguing, and arguing."
But the reality is much different than the political perception. The main parts of ObamaCare — the individual mandate and the health insurance exchanges for purchasing plans — are not delayed. And there remains almost no chance Republicans can repeal the law as long as Obama is in the White House.
So while the day's headlines are bad for the White House, ObamaCare remains the law of the land and will likely remain in place for a generation or longer.

Ya! Im up to 43 digits! Only 67 to go!
I think this is right. Someone please tell me if i am wrong.
thanks! 3 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.

Ya! Im up to 43 digits! Only 67 to go!
I think this is right. Someone please tell me if i am wrong.
thanks! 3 years ago
An interesting way I found to memorize, that I haven't really seen anywhere before is to visualize yourself typing out the numbers on a standard 3×3 keypad (or type them out numerous times), or write them down & re-write them down on paper. Both stimulate muscle memory, which retains informations better (usually) than normal memory. I can recite 100 digits without error, that i memorized four years ago. 4 years ago
It's not perfect yet, but I'm getting there. 4 years ago
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288, bitches! :D 4 years ago
I love the number pi, and I love memorizing things.
so far I've memorized 29 digits. 6 years ago
I've memorized 162 digits of pi. I would have thought memorizing lots of numbers would be hard, it's harder to believe how easy it is. I'm making a new more ambitious goal now. 7 years ago
I've got 102 digits in my short term memory. Didn't take very long at all. Now the test will be to see if I can still recite them all a week from now. 7 years ago
For all of you people who want to know the first 100 digits of pi, here you go (I know I cheated):
I will edit this to get the number higher (When I feel like it) 7 years ago
I (Think) I know the first 35 digits of pi without cheating. Can someone please tell me if I'm wrong? Here's what I know:
PLEASE TELL ME IF I'M WRONG!!! 7 years ago
Checked, it's correct. Done. 7 years ago

Mitsubishi models, news & reviews
Feelgood factor
Readers' rating
By Ben Whitworth
First Drives
14 December 2006 09:32
With its faux-rally flared wheelarches, stubby nose complete with diamond-studded 'Mount Fuji' nose and hatch-mounted spare wheel, this new fourth-generation Shogun may look pretty much the same as before. But three-quarters of it is new, apparently. Like the new Outlander , it arrives here next March, and comes as a stretched five-door or short wheelbase three-door, running one engine – Mitsubishi's familiar 3.2-litre four-cylinder turbo diesel.
No. There's the familiar Equippe, Warrior and Elegance derivatives, and Mitsubishi will also introduce a topdog Diamond model, complete with big 20inch alloys, a lot of chrome and a different front grille. Despite these wholesale changes, prices remain unchanged, ranging from £22,949 for the three door entry-level Equippe to £34,999 for the new five-door Diamond. Expect the aggressive-looking long-wheelbase Warrior – the car we drove – to take the bulk of UK sales.

Gothic lolita dresses?
i adore them ^_^ i put my own style into it and i get alot of comments on it.
Apr 11 2007, 08:18 PM
Personally... no. But if you live in Japan or somewhere, it'd work for you
Apr 11 2007, 08:23 PM
Never heard of them until now :X
Apr 11 2007, 08:37 PM
can i see some pictures b4 i comment.
Apr 11 2007, 09:32 PM
^ Definitely not for casual wear =p
They're pretty though.
It reminds me of anime for some reason
Apr 11 2007, 09:38 PM
^ Because it's Japanese?
They're cute. I just don't see people around here wearing them and not being made fun of.
Gypsy Eyes

I think they are the tackiest things in the world.
My Cinderella.
Apr 11 2007, 10:12 PM
It depends on who's wearing it, I suppose. Some people can pull it off.
Apr 11 2007, 10:35 PM
They're adorable at the right time: anime conventions, Sunday in Harajuku, etc. Most of those Japanese chicks only wear them on Sundays for tourists to take pictures of them.
I think a more subtle gothic lolita style is very cute, though. Black + white lace, etc :)
Mystic Eyes
Apr 12 2007, 12:01 PM
I like the style very much. It's cool and funky.
Apr 12 2007, 12:07 PM
never heard of it until now..
i like the general style of it, its just not me lol.
some of the lighter colored ones remind me of a huge baby doll lol
Apr 12 2007, 01:16 PM
I love EGL. It's adorable. But if I ever wore it, it'd only be for something special and not an everyday type of wear.

Fron what i've seen gothic lolita dresses look alot like the old time victorian dresses. yes some are taky lol but some can be very gorgeous.i suppose its just the way someone wears them
heres a pic of what they are.[well some]
Apr 12 2007, 02:58 PM
Its really cute but I dont think I would wear it for everyday...
I doubt anyone wears it around here though
maybe fore a play or something
Apr 13 2007, 03:37 AM
I've seen people wearing these before, but I live in Japan.
I, myself am personally not into it...
it's not my style.
Apr 20 2007, 02:54 AM
Gothic lolita is really pretty, but kodona and decora/Fruits are more of my style. Some stores, I heard, sell pretty durable dresses and can be worn daily.
Cute siggy, btw. :D is it AnCafe? <---doesn't know them well>
Apr 20 2007, 03:46 AM
I like Gothic Lolita dresses. Yep, they don't look comfortable to wear allllllll day or consecutively, but it's nice to wear it once in a while. :] The lacey frills are really adorable :] If I could find a good dress, I'd wear it to Comic-Con or animeexpo.. Ahh that reminds me I need to find some clothes to cosplay..
Apr 20 2007, 10:25 AM
i think they look pretty in a photoshoot but not to wear everyday lol. but my friend has one and she adores it.
Apr 20 2007, 10:32 AM
they look like halloween costumes so tacky i would never wear them
Apr 20 2007, 12:49 PM
Hmm they are interesting, I would never wear them though.
Apr 20 2007, 05:04 PM
I love Gothic Lolita dresses. <33 They are adorable. Not something I'd wear everyday, but something I'd wear at animecons (if I ever go to one?), maybe Halloween, or some random days where I feel like wearing it. XD I have those moments.
Apr 20 2007, 09:49 PM
perfect for halloween and special events.
Apr 21 2007, 12:04 AM
Most of them look really cute, I would consider wearing it for special events but definately not for everday wear.
They're quite expensive and I don't know where to get them anyway.

The Gothic Lolita dresses looks cute, but it probably wouldn't look that nice on me. But they're so cute.
May 18 2007, 08:13 AM
Yeah, I like the Goth Lolita style. It's really cute....but I'm not sure I'd wear something like that out....I'd probably get alot of funny looks *teehee*.

How Kathleen Woodiwiss Changed Romance
One need only read the tributes paid to romance author Kathleen Woodiwiss, who died yesterday at the age of 68, to get an inkling of the impact her work had on readers. "Meeting Ms. Woodwiss [sic] in Houston and hearing her speak was a pleasure. She was such a sweet person and she made immeasurable contribution to the romance industry," wrote Carolyn Smith of Weatherford, TX. "It is through her work that I fell in love with historical romance and because of her I write the same," commented Melissa G. of Murfeesboro, TN. Sarah Wendell of Smart Bitches, Trashy Books noted that "without her work, the genre we both love wouldn't be what it is today", and at the Goddess Blogs, Karen Hawkins was effusive in praising the work of a woman she never had a chance to meet. Woodiwiss's fellow Avon author Teresa Medeiros summed up the appeal of Woodiwiss's controversial but landmark debut novel, THE FLAME AND THE FLOWER:
Whether you love The Flame and the Flower or hate it, we're still talking about it thirty years later. How many other romances will be able to make that claim? As I turned the last page of the book with a wistful sigh, I was humbled all over again by what a tremendous debt of gratitude we all owe Kathleen E. Woodiwiss. Brandon Birmingham and Heather Simmons are truly the grandparents of all the historical heroes and heroines who came after them. At the end of the book, Kathleen E. Woodiwiss shouldn't have written The End, but The Beginning.
Woodiwiss's passing comes only a few days before the Romance Writers of America hosts its annual convention, which starts tomorrow and runs through Saturday at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dallas. It remains to be seen whether RWA will have any sort of official tribute, as the convention plans its program months in advance, but there's little doubt Woodiwiss, and her influence, will be on the minds of many over the course of the week.

It was set up in 2007 by Laurie and Rhonda Stiller who took a tree change from Sydney to live near family.

A slow roasted blend of grains, seeds fruits and nuts provides the deliciously crunchy base in our Wyangapinni crunch muesli.
Our Award Winning caramelised almonds, pecans and macadamia nuts and Nutty Snackers make great snacks to have with a drink. Nutty Snackers are great with a drink and perfect for cheese and dips.
Chalala Micro-Bakery produces breads, fine quality muesli, biscuits and crackers which have a strong local following. Through our online store we aim to make these products more widely available. If you have any problems using this site for ordering please let us know by using the "contact" link on the bottom left hand corner of the page.
We sell our breads retail in Toowoomba, Warwick, Stanthorpe, Goondiwindi and Pittsworth. Our Muesli is also available in select Brisbane outlets.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!

I've been lifting free weights (i.e. curls etc), doing push-ups etc. for about a year trying to build some muscle and i have noticed that my chest is very developed and protrudes from my body quite a bit .. almost giving the 'man boobs' look (or will if i continue along this path)
Just wondering if anyone knows anything which can be done to fix this and what are the best excercises to broaden the shoulders and get the 'V shape' look and continue to build the arms without adding anything to my already bulging chest? My shoulders aren't very broad in relation to the size of my arms and chest.
I'm pretty much average build, average body fat, trying to get a bit leaner as well.
Thanks a lot for any advice..
p.s. new to the forum so i wasn't sure if this was the best place to put it - please move if necessary

But the situation soured when Steven Kotlinski, 55, stepped out to watch his wife's sobriety test, provoking the Mundelein officers to order him into the SUV. He reluctantly obeyed, but one officer said Kotlinski had obstructed his efforts. He ordered him back out, then tried to pull him out.
A Tribune analysis shows Taser use has jumped fivefold in the city since 2008 and suburban agencies that were surveyed were on pace to double their use, as departments equipped more officers with the devices. Chicago police were deploying Tasers at a rate of more than twice a day in 2011.
And oversight has not kept pace with the explosion in use. Departments are on their own in developing policies on when and how electroshock devices should be deployed, with no state regulation.
In Kotlinski's case, the engineer at Abbott Laboratories was removed from his SUV and pinned in the snow. He lost control of his body as an "intense burning sensation" accompanied the surreal feeling that he was floating over the ground, he said. He roared about his heart condition, then begged in a faint wheeze for someone to call 911.
"Pain. I've never felt that way in my life," Kotlinski said.
They may bring pain, but the weapons save lives by reducing the use of guns or physical combat, police say. Civil rights advocates and experts on use of force counter that some officers deploy them too eagerly, spurring lawsuits and fomenting distrust of officers. The potential lethality of the weapons remains under debate, but critics point to hundreds of deaths that have followed their use as proof that electroshock devices should be seen as deadly weapons.
"It's a wonderful tool, when used properly," said Geoffrey Alpert, a University of South Carolina criminal justice professor who co-wrote a recent federal report on the weapons.
"But they've just got to be used judiciously, and in many departments, they aren't."
Like almost all states, Illinois does not track the weapons' use by local police, and departments have been left to monitor and govern electroshock devices with a patchwork of policies. In Chicago, the leap in the number of police carrying Tasers coincided with the scaling back of post-shock investigations by the Independent Police Review Authority.
Safety debate
Although no Illinois agency collects data on uses of force by police, figures provided to the Tribune by Mundelein and eight randomly selected suburban departments that use the devices show police are on pace to deploy them roughly twice as often in 2011 as they did in 2008.
Police in those departments used the weapons 35 times in 2008. By fall 2011, they had used them 56 times on the year. If that pace continued through December, the figure for 2011 would fall near 70.
Departments reported deployments at different levels of detail, and it was not clear in every case how a "use" or "incident" was defined. But the trend toward more frequent use was clear.
The rise has been steeper in Chicago. In 2009, officers logged 197 incidents. A year later, after hundreds more weapons were passed out, Chicago police reported 871 incidents. As of fall, the department was on pace for 857 uses in 2011, which works out to 2.3 per day.
The growth in the weapons' use should not come as a surprise, given their rise in popularity.
Several companies make electroshock weapons, which override the target's central nervous system by firing wire-tethered probes that deliver electrical jolts. Arizona-based Taser International makes the most popular models. About 576,000 of the devices are used by more than 16,500 law enforcement and military organizations, nearly all in the United States, said spokesman Steve Tuttle. Only 500 or so agencies used the weapons in 2000, he said.
In Illinois, a little fewer than half of the municipal police agencies that responded to a 2007 survey reported they were using electroshock weapons, according to the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board, and more departments have since bought the weapons. Several suburban agencies contacted by the Tribune appear to have started using them in 2008 or 2009.
