You don't have to supplement 12 weeks is prime time for a growth spurt! Frequent nursing is totally normal and so is increased efficiency. Diaper output should be 5+ soggy wet diapers and some babies that age poop 3 times a day and some don't poop for a week (both are totally normal) as long as babies poop is yellow mustar seedy cottage cheese and runny to pasty. Other signs baby is getting enough: Growing and meeting milestones, generally content after eating.
I agree with PP, she's probably just going through a growth spurt. As long as she's gaining weight and having plenty of wet and dirty diapers, you're probably doing fine and there's no reason to supplement. Just continue feeding her on demand.
By nursing faster do you mean that she's not nursing as long? If that's the case she's probably just getting more efficient. DS only ever nursed for 5-10 minutes total and we never had any problems or need to supplement.

Hi, I am a newly single man that is simply looking for a great friendship and solid foundation that can grow into something amazing! I am not in a rush or looking to force a relationship. I have 3 amazing boys, ages 6, 4, and 2. I come as a package deal and you'd have to be willing to take on the challenge of loving us all! I am not into games and have nothing to hide. I'm not a cheater or a liar. I hope to find a woman that can see through our past relationships and recognize that we are both much better because of those experiences. My mistakes and trials have all made me better. I repent, pray and read daily. I am honest and open. I am an RN and love it. I work hard and serve others. I am LDS and have a personal relationship with the Savior. I believe in the power of prayer and the atonement. My worthiness is important to me and so is yours, I will not jeopardize either! I'm not uptight about religion but do take it seriously. I am genuinely interested in finding that special someone some day so I'm not here to waste your time or mine. I'm not here looking to hook up or play games. I've been hurt, betrayed and cheated on before and want no part of it. I'm not broken and don't need to be fixed. I look forward and move on! On the lighter side, I'm an active country boy who loves just about anything. From movies to hunting. From plays to dirt bikes. From formal dress to the mud. I'm up for just about anything and love to get out. Let's see where this goes OR best of luck to you in your search! Either way, Thanks for the view ;)

Meet the Wichita Women Standing Up to Anti-Abortion Extremists
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
The following was originally published in Ms. Magazine's Summer 2013 issue.
South Wind Women's Center in Wichita, Kan., she ducks down on the floor of the car. She wants to avoid being spotted by the anti-abortion demonstrators stationed at the entrance of the clinic's parking lot.
This precaution started in April, when the extremist anti-abortion group Operation Rescue posted Chastine's name and photo on its website, headlined "Identity of New Wichita Abortionist…Uncovered." The post included a surreptitious audio recording of Operation Rescue head Troy Newman posing as a reporter and asking Chastine if she performs abortions at the Wichita clinic. Chastine is heard asking that he not identify her publicly: "I would like to keep my name off the record [because] of the crazy people with guns," she says.
Newman's years-long goal to make and keep Wichita abortion-free escalated when he moved Operation Rescue's headquarters from Southern California to Kansas in 2002. At the time, he told Rolling Stone, his "single, shining goal" was to shut down Dr. George Tiller's Wichita abortion clinic. He even ran a full-page ad in Catholic newspaper The Wanderer, reading, "Wichita isn't big enough for George Tiller and me." For seven years, he and his second-in-command, Cheryl Sullenger, who served two and a half years in prison for conspiracy to bomb an abortion clinic in California, spearheaded the stalking and harassment of Tiller—right up until the Sunday morning in May 2009 when Dr. Tiller was gunned down in his church.
So different cars, never taking the same route twice and an armed escort are precautions Chastine does not question.
Now Operation Rescue is redirecting its attention to South Wind. When the story broke early this year that a clinic providing a full range of women's health care, including abortions, was opening, Newman told the Kansas City Star, "They can try to pretend it's a full-service women's center, but it's just an abortion clinic…And they're going to go out of business, because we're going to make sure that it's not economically feasible to run it."
South Wind, which began offering services in April to women in western Kansas and parts of Oklahoma and North Texas, isn't just any new clinic: It's located in the same building that once housed Dr. Tiller's clinic. Even before Newman moved to Wichita, Operation Rescue's antiabortion protesters had flooded into the state in the summer of 1991 to blockade the clinic.
It had also been bombed and vandalized, and in 1993 Dr. Tiller was shot in both arms during an assassination attempt.
When Julie Burkhart, who had been Tiller's political advisor and legislative director, formed South Wind, it was in part to carry on her mentor's legacy—as well as to fill a void in a state with only three remaining clinics providing abortions, all more than two and a half hours by car from Wichita.
Dr. Chastine, who became involved with the Wichita clinic because she wanted to help women who have limited access to abortion and other reproductive-health care, agreed to fly to Wichita from her home in Illinois. But targeting abortion doctors is a familiar tactic for extremist groups; Chastine was soon on the target list. In addition to the clinic in Wichita, she faces protests at her family practice in the Chicago suburb of Oak Park, even though she doesn't perform abortions there.
Her problems in Illinois began after Troy Newman tracked her and posted her identity. A couple of weeks later, anti-abortion protesters showed up at her medical office and have continued to protest there every month, organized by Eric Scheidler, executive director of the Chicago-based Pro-Life Action League. A second-generation antiabortion leader, Scheidler is the son of Joseph Scheidler, author of the book CLOSED: 99 Ways to Stop Abortion. The older Scheidler is also credited with inspiring Operation Rescue's use of clinic blockades and invasions. In fact, it was at a conference in Chicago involving Operation Rescue and the Pro-Life Action League where the idea of "justifiable homicide" of abortion doctors was first discussed.

Is it safe to take decongestants if I have blood pressure?
Decongestants can temporarily relieve nasal congestion, but also slightly raise blood pressure during their usage - especially with decongestants containing the ingredient pseudoephedrine. Due to these small spikes in blood pressure, consult your physician if you have high blood pressure and wish to use decongestants.
Decongestant uses
Nasal congestion has many different root causes, including colds, flu and allergies. You can take decongestants orally (by mouth) or as nasal sprays or drops. Most oral decongestants contain the ingredient pseudoephedrine - an ingredient that is more likely to cause small spikes in blood pressure. These products, such as Sudafed� , are more likely than nasal varieties to cause an increase in blood pressure, since they're more readily absorbed into the bloodstream. Common nasal decongestant sprays include products such as oxymetazoline (Afrin�) and phenylephrine (Neo-Synephrine�). Phenylephrine is now replacing pseudoephedrine in many over-the-counter cold and allergy medications, but can still cause an increase in blood pressure when taken orally.
Elevated blood pressure
Blood pressure elevations caused by oral decongestants are often very mild, but they can be a problem if your blood pressure is high or uncontrolled. If you have high blood pressure, consult your doctor before taking an oral decongestant. He or she may recommend that you take a regular (short-acting) form of pseudoephedrine rather than extended-release products. Or that you should avoid oral decongestants and use a nasal decongestant instead.

Equal Access - Necessary Supplemental Accommodation (NSA) and Long Term Care
Revised March 3, 2014
Purpose: To explain Aging and Long term supports administration (ALTSA) policies related to NSA and long-term care. Necessary Supplemental Accommodation (NSA ) is also known as equal access (EA)
NSA-Equal Access and clients receiving ALTSA/HCS LTC services
EAZ manual NSA-Equal Access for cash and food
Medical-Health Care Authority Equal Access
Additional information is followed by Aging and long-term support administration (ALTSA) for individuals receiving ALTSA services.
The following information is from chapter 3 of the long-term care manual used by ALTSA/HCS social services. This describes the responsibilities of the HCS SW or AAA case manager. All ALTSA LTC clients are treated as if they are NSA.
Clients who have a mental, neurological, physical, or sensory impairment or other problems that prevent them from getting program benefits in the same way as those who are not impaired are considered in need of necessary supplemental accommodation/Equal Access. (WAC 182-503-0120)
Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA) follows Policy 5.02 Necessary Supplemental Accommodation in the DDA policy manual.
ALTSA/HCS Social Worker and AAA Case manager responsibilities
Discuss with clients any issues that would hinder their ability to access DSHS programs and services and determine if they require any necessary supplemental accommodation/equal access services to ensure that they can submit the necessary information to the financial worker for an initial (or on-going) determination of eligibility for Medicaid. If the client requires or requests NSA/EA:
EXAMPLE: The client has significant cognitive impairment and cannot be responsible for the application and eligibility review process. Her daughter, who is her DPOA, will be identified as the contact person for the financial application process.
EXAMPLE: The client cannot read. All form must be sent to the designated representative.
EXAMPLE: The client has a hearing impairment so staff should not contact the client by phone or would need to use the TTY system when appropriate.
Implementing the Necessary Supplemental Accommodation (NSA) - Equal Access
In addition to documenting NSA/EA information on the Care Plan screen, you must:
HCS/AAA case records must be identified (or flagged) if the client has specific needs identified (e.g. large size print for forms, hearing impairment, cognitive impairments, limited reading ability, etc.) that are in addition to the required accommodations that are already identified in HCS policy. "NSA" is printed on the outside of the case record folder. Although all ALTSA/DDA LTC clients are treated as if they are NSA, only develop an NSA plan and mark the case "NSA" if the client has specific NSA needs
ALTSA/HCS Financial Worker Responsibilities
Processing Late Eligibility Reviews
It is the policy of ALSTA to ensure all clients receiving LTC services are given the required NSA/EA to services. See LTC renewals for complete instructions on processing late reviews.

From the Georgia Department of Natural Resources
-- Georgia's Pollinator Week, June 22-28, couldn't come at a more appropriate time in Georgia. The first of 12 butterfly counts in the state starts this week.
The purpose of Pollinator Week is to teach pollinator-friendly practices and raise awareness of the importance of the birds, bees, bats, beetles, butterflies, moths and flies needed to produce 80 percent of flowering plants and a third of food crops.
There is evidence some pollinator species in North America are declining, according to the National Academy of Sciences. As Georgia's butterflies flutter through the state, biologists with the Wildlife Resources Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources remind residents that butterflies are key pollinators for many flowering plants and crops.
DNR biologists and volunteers working with the North American Butterfly Association are coordinating counts to provide a better idea of the status of butterfly populations in Georgia.
"Compared to Georgia's vertebrate wildlife, relatively little is known about our insects, even highly visible and beautiful species like butterflies," said wildlife biologist Tim Keyes of Wildlife Resources' Nongame Conservation Section. "As public interest grows in these charismatic and important insects, the knowledge can help contribute to baseline knowledge of species distribution, abundance and eventually their response to habitat, weather and climate changes."
Keyes will lead a July 6 count at Bond Swamp National Wildlife Refuge near Macon. Other events are scheduled from Rabun to Dougherty County (details at www.naba.org/counts.html).
Retired entomologist Jerry Payne organizes the count at Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge and Rum Creek Wildlife Management Area north of Macon—for Friday, June 26—and takes part in five others.
Butterflies are sensitive indicators of the environment's health because of their dependence on specific plants where they lay eggs and feed, and even certain habitats, Payne explained. Counting them also has
its rewards. "They're colorful as fireworks and a lot less dangerous," he said.
The data volunteers collect is compiled into a report that researchers use to study geographical distribution and population sizes. Comparisons of years of data - 2009 marks the 35th year of counts - yield some of the best information for determining the health of butterfly species.
Georgia is home to about 165 of those species. While monarchs are the best known of the butterfly migrants, many other species, including cloudless sulphur, gulf fritillary, painted and American ladies, and Georgia's state butterfly, the Eastern tiger swallowtail, are also migratory, although the exact nature of their migratory flights is not well understood.
Weather can change count dates.
For a list of Georgia's butterflies and more information on how you can participate in the counts or other Pollinator Week activities, visit these Web sites: DNR Wildlife Resource www.georgiawildlife.com), the North American Butterfly Association (www.naba.org/counts.html) and Pollinator Partnership (www.pollinator.org/pollinator_week_2009.htm).

iLock By MMMOOO Updates To 1.1.0 With A New Look And New Features
MMMOOO let us know that they updated their iLock application and I have to admit, it's quite noticeable. I had to check it out and see what was new, and was pleasantly surprised. The new app has a new look, new menu, and works really nicely. Come take a closer look with us…
As you can see, I'm really impressed with the new look and it includes much more. It's similar to Options/Applications where you can choose what apps to lock from Third Party and Core apps. I tested it out and it works perfect. All my messages, my BlackBerry Messenger, any app I chose. Great job MMMOOO in the new update! It kept my most prized apps behind prying eyes, and kept them safe. I tried different ways, and it still came up to a password to allow me access to each one that I chose.
If you have iLock, you can sign in to the BlackBerry Sync Store online, go to My Apps, and send it to your phone. If you have the mobile Super Store, go to My Apps and download from there. If you don't have iLock, it's available in the BlackBerry Sync Store for only $3.99. What is the advantage of this application? Password protect your apps whether its for home or work. What I like most? That if someone keeps attempting to try passwords, you won't have a wipe out in ten tries.
You can grab a copy of iLock by MMMOOO for $3.99 from the BlackBerry Sync Store here

Deep Fringe UHF/HDTV Outdoor Antenna w/14dB amplifier
Highly rugged, 70 element directional antenna is engineered to receive UHF signals for digital and high definition television broadcasts from great distances. Corner Yagi design provides exceptional directivity and gain.
Boom mounted 14dB amplifier provides increased signal strength ensuring reliable reception on weak stations, even with long antenna cable runs. This amplifier is powered over the existing coax cable, via an included power inserter which can be located anywhere inside the home.
Excellent build quality and performance for the money. I knocked off a star because the instructions were a bit lacking. This was not an issue for me as I've assembled many antennas, but for some it may cause some confusion. From West Liberty Ohio, using a rotor I no problems receiving stations from Lima, Dayton or Columbus. All in all, I am very happy and would highly recommend.
The amplifier blew out in 2 weeks. It didn't even get wet inside, it just went out. I pried opened the little box afterwards to see if it was fixable (I sure wasn't going to sent the whole antenna back), it was all micro components and almost nothing to it, but no way could I fix it with out having the correct parts. It worked fine when it did work. I then tried to connect the antenna with just a coax to it, and it was below average on reception. I just bought another Stellar Antenna Mounted Amplifier and will try to adapt that to the antenna and see if it helps, it should be in soon. The amplified antennas do make quite a difference. I can get NYC on a clear day from my home which is 90 miles away from NYC. Without a antenna mounted amplifier, it can't do it. I tried a in the house amp and they won't do it either.

Ashley Skittles Is Still Fat, Still Not Famous
THE DIRTY ARMY: Last year someone posted pictures of Ashley's fat gut. Some of her friends disputed her being fat. Well Nik, here we are alittle over a year later and she still has a fat gut. In the group photo Ashley is on the left side, look at that gut. Look at the cellulite in her thighs. This girl thinks she is gorgeous and modeling material. I think she needs to lay off the booze and do some crunches. What say you Nik?
Her legs look wider then the ones in jeans.- nik

I wear this pretty regularly, but it reacts to my chemistry in very different ways depending on the day, so I have to test it--sometimes it is nice and fresh and light, other times it can be a little "grandma" on me like a reviewer said below. I have to take a tiny roll-on to try it, see what it is like that day, and either proceed or abort.
I like this strange smell, better than the other ones I got (Rasta and Black Orchid) at Tom's, but even though I wear it several times a week, I wouldn't say it is HG.

i love all different fragrances. yet the one i always return to is egyptian musks. they are just more, me. this in particular is a lovely sexy earthy, feminine scent. its soft enough to be intriguing but it is very lovely. i adore perfume oils too. much better staying power and with spray perfumes it takes a while to let the scent "develop". i just love this. i am always smelling my wrist when i wear this. its isnt for everyone but it is unique and lovely.

I got into Egyptian musks a few years back for some reason or another, and ended up trying all different blends/brands. I came upon Auric Blends Egyptian Goddess during that time and have been wearing it ever since.
I'm really not an perfume oil kind of gal. I really like a perfume I can spray and that I KNOW is getting on my clothes and skin. Despite this, I really love Egyptian Goddess. It's very warm, soft and feminine. A tad sweeter than my other favorite musk (Abdul Kareem's Egyptian Musk) but still very mature. I don't wear this as often as I should but every time I do, someone compliments me on the scent.
The staying power is also awesome. I generally only dab this on my wrists and inner arm and the scent lasts forever! Not a few hours, I'm talking like ten to twelve hours. Also, the price is simply astounding. So cheap but not at all cheap smelling.

Mmm! This one I like. It is very unique, feminine, and just yummy. I enjoy it and would definately recommend.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
A decent Egyptian-style musk without a lot of added frills; there may be some discreet floral notes in here but I pick up a supporting cast of mainly quiet spices and woods. Dries down soft and close, hangs around a long time. It's evocative of clean skin but unlike so many of the recent popular musk scents the emphasis is on the "skin" rather than the "clean" so it smells warm and slightly sexy, not soapy. Surprisingly good at the price point and worth it if you want an everyday, neutral light musk. If you like it, you may want to check out "Special Delivery"from Dirty Sanchez Soaps on etsy, which uses a very similar fragrance.
EDIT 2012: after educating my nose a little more, I can identify this scent as having a solid backbone of musk + jasmine. I'm not a big jasmine wearer but together with the musk I really like it. I believe it's the jasmine that evokes the "soapy" association some people have for Egyptian musk.

I just got this in the mail today along with two other scents. I ordered it off of Amazon and Tom's Incense, it was $19.77 for the three of them.
This scent, I'm not really positive, but I think I detect water lily, musk and maybe sandalwood amongst many other notes. It's a sort of incense smell to me...which I like. It's more on the mature side.
I think it could be considered a "sexy" scent depending on who you're trying to attract. I'm sure a few people would consider it an old lady scent though haha. But it's soft and I like it.
3 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i read the reviews ,bought it without thinking(i had it shiped internationally) 3 roll-ons plus other scents (which i ended up liking them better than EG)
at first i could not smell it at all (weired) never had this problem with any other scent,but after 2 uses i could smell it and i need to tell those poeple who think this sexy IT IS NOT,it's a clean ,skin scent,like your skin smells after a shower with a very obvious floral notes nothing more.
the price is good ,packaging is handy and now i use it after showering and when going out i spray my own perfum as you can easily layer this with almost anything,not going to buy again,i liked other auric blends better.
I bought Egyptian Goddess because of the staggering number of positive reviews it got here. And while it was pretty, it was a tad too sweet for me. However, I liked to use it for the gym -- until the second or third day I developed a red irritation on my wrists, neck and backs of my knees.
Not sure what kind of oil is in it, but it's the only one I've found that does not agree with me. And while less than $10 is cheap, it's expensive when you have to throw it out or give it away.

I've been on the search for a perfect musk scent. I love Skin Musk but I was looking for something a little more sophisticated. I love NR for her and heard that the Auric Blends Egyptian Goddess is comparable to BR Musc oil. I sure hope not.
I blindly ordered this from the AB website after reading so many positive reviews. I was at my local Central Market today and dabbed a bit on my wrist to sample the scent. It was OK at first. Very powdery and synthetic, but your typical egyptian musk scent. I continously sniffed my wrist during the shopping trip and the scent became more acrid and metallic as time went by. I arrived home and my 6 year old daughter said 'You smell just like grandma!" and my husband thought it smelled cheap and powdery. It's very unpleasant. Maybe the sample was rancid, but everytime I sniff my wrist I get a sharp and pungent odor that reminds me of burning tires and spoiled fruit. Not a HG for me. I hope I can cancel my order in time!

More reviews by Bassmastadroog
Because I am an oil frag fan and because I read reviews manically before I purchase things I do not have tester access to, I was pretty sure I couldn't go wrong with Egyptian Goddess. My skin is able to hold and react lovely to fragrances in general very well, so I really had no qualms about purchasing before testing after the reviews. First of all, the packaging is handy, holds enough oil to last you (I put two large stripes down one arm, and swipes on each side of my neck) for a while, as 1/3 of an ounce is surprisingly much for a roll-on bottle. It allows for no wasting of the product. Also, oil roll-ons tend to be MUCH easier on the sinuses than spray, and is more convenient to freshen up with when you aren't at home.
To the scent: When I wear fragrances, I like to be able to smell them when I move, all day long getting tiny whiffs. Not have them overpower my senses throughout the day like I literally sprayed them above my lip. Auric Blends Egyptian Goddess does EXACTLY what I want. It almost feels magical; when you are least expecting it, you will smell it. Its actually a scent I have trouble smelling when I want to, as I don't really sense much when I smell where I rubbed it. Having said that, for those who like strong smells, this does mean that it is a rather weak one in comparison to most I have tried. As for the scent itself, it is very ethereal. To me it smells like light orient incense, floral notes slightly powdered, and a cool white moon on a fresh rainy morning. It really can be that poetic! It is a strangely attractive scent and is easily able to make the wearer feel comfortable and in tune with it, rather than having to live up to its stench. This is definitely a natural scent that smells like it belongs on the skin, just barely hovering above it. A whisper scent.

Emily VanCamp
Amid all the Easter dinners and visiting, prime-time television tried to lure viewers with a mishmash of first-run episodes, specials and repeats, and CBS won the night in total viewership — helped by the new Hallmark Hall of Fame movie Beyond the Blackboard.
Betty White
The indomitable, irrepressible Betty White is just gaining momentum. While she was winning a Screen Actors Guild award for her work on Hot in Cleveland, her Hallmark Hall of Fame movie was putting up the anthology movie series' best numbers in four years.
Jason Clarke and Jason Isaacs in Brotherhood by Jim Fiscus/Showtime
This Sunday, it sure didn't feel as if the sweeps month had already ended. Major pivotal episodes of ABC's hit series, a movie special on CBS (one of the better Hallmark Hall of Fames to air in a while) and, somewhat lost in the shuffle, a season finale of one of TV's more underappreciated dramas. That's a lot to digest.First off, the watercooler show of the night was unquestionably Desperate Housewives, capping an above-par season with the long-awaited arrival of a devastating twister. The circumstances were just about as far-fetched as most things that happen in this diverting comedic soap, but that final shot of a flattened Wisteria Lane was truly apocalyptic. Lynnettes banshee screech would have been justified even if she hadnt just realized the house where her family had hunkered down in the basement was buried in rubble. Outstanding.(For the record, I side with those who think that Ida, the owner of the wayward cat, is probably the friend referred to in...

The Boston Celtics seem insistent on making the Atlantic Division tougher and tougher every season for the Raptors, and their latest dip into the free agent market will certainly add weight to the depth of the league.
The Big Three of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce could now be as deep as a Big Six with the addition of Shaquille O'Neal surely making them a prohibitive favourite to at least win our little section of the NBA.
Although basketball betting pundits note that Shaq is years removed from his best play, and remains a liability when sent to the free-throw line, it remains true that his big-bodied style of play has a place in the league, especially when you put him up against a team, like ours, that will be going through some growing pains in the paint.
This team went to Game Seven of the NBA Finals last season without Shaq and Jermaine O'Neal and it was their play in the frontcourt, without the injured Kendrick Perkins and with Rasheed Wallace clearly on the downgrade, that cost them badly.
While they are probably not worried about competing against Toronto, looking more to the teams they will face in the playoffs, this will impact on the smaller sides in the league as they and the Miami Heat All-Star Crew should now have the Eastern Conference between them.
O'Neill, who was the top pick in the 1992 NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic, averaged 12.0 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 53 games for LeBron's Cleveland Cavaliers last season.
"I am honoured to be joining the Celtics," O'Neal said in a statement issued by the Celtics. "I have played against Paul, Ray, Kevin, Rajon (Rondo), and Jermaine for many years and it will be great to be able to call them my teammates. I cannot wait to get to Boston to get started in pursuit of another championship."
I'm sure fans in Toronto will be eager to see whether these big egos can manage the chemistry to pull off another run to the finals, but the final score on the Jumbotron might not make pretty reading for those backing them in NBA betting tips and predictions!

'Three Dimensional Sketchbook' A Solo Show by Jill Downen
- What:
- Plug Projects' newest exhibition Three Dimensional Sketchbook introduces Kansas City to the work of Jill Downen and the intimate process she uses to plan large-scale installations. This exhibition presents maquettes that investigate the relationships between the human body and the architectural structures we occupy. These works use a vocabulary of sensual forms reminiscent of abstracted bodily parts. Sculptural objects make points of comparison between bodies and buildings by identifying parallel natures between human anatomy and skeleton and skin structural systems used in architecture. The thematic possibilities of construction, deterioration and restoration become concerns for our bodies and where we reside. The exhibition offers a peek into the artist's process, as well as an opportunity to survey her work from a new and unexpected perspective. Viewers will encounter a long table and cabinet of drawers displaying models crafted from plaster and basswood. The small scale of these sculptures reverses the experience that viewers generally have with Downen's monumental installations. The inverted scale and assembly of the maquettes as a singular tablescape/cityscape cause a reconsideration of the forms in relationship to each other, the body and to Downen's art-making practice overall. Jill Downen is a 2010 John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellow and has received a 2009 MacDowell Colony National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship with additional support from Leon Levy Foundation and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. She was awarded a Cité International des Arts Residency (2007) in Paris and was selected for the 2004 Great Rivers Biennial, a grant and exhibition sponsored by Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis and the Gateway Foundation. Downen has extensively lectured about her work and contemporary art at venues including the 2007 Luce Irigaray Circle Conference on philosophy in New York and the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts in St. Louis. She holds a BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute and an MFA as a Danforth Scholar from Washington University. Downen is an Assistant Professor of Sculpture at the Kansas City Art Institute and is represented by the Bruno David Gallery in St. Louis. www.jilldownen.com PLUG PROJECTS is a curatorial collaboration and exhibition space run by five Kansas City artists who share the mission of bringing fresh perspectives and conversation to the local art community. Our goal is to energize artists and the public at large by exhibiting challenging new work, initiating critical dialogue, and expanding connections of artists in Kansas City as part of a wider, national network of artists. PLUG presents bi-monthly exhibitions featuring national and international artists who are actively challenging contemporary perspectives in all disciplines. Accompanying each exhibition, PLUG's program includes critique nights, a curated blog, interdisciplinary events, lectures and studio visits to contribute to greater artistic dialogues. PLUG Projects is in the Stockyards District of Kansas City, Missouri at 1613 Genessee Street, 64102. "Support for this project is provided by the Rocket Grants program, administered by the Charlotte Street Foundation and the University of Kansas Spencer Museum of Art. Funding is provided by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. This project is also made possible through the generous support of The Metropolitan Arts Council of Kansas City and the Francis Family Foundation." Photos courtesy of Charles Schwall

The Speech
There is something I should point out: when the cane cutters from Havana were there in Oriente, the first thing they said was that they didn't want to leave while there was any cane left; and the second thing was, with respect to the earthquake in Peru, that they were ready to go to Peru if necessary. [Applause] That is the spirit, the conscientiousness of our workers! Our workers have become much more conscientious.
Often men with no authority to make decisions are the ones who have to confront the problems.
On the other hand, some people believe that problems can be solved miraculously, that it is just a matter of replacing certain individuals.
I was saying that it has been necessary to remove some ministers and that it will be necessary to make some other changes. But sometimes it occurs to me with a certain sadness that there might be some confusion when the masses think that the problem can be solved simply by replacing individuals. And sometimes people say, "If they take this one out and put that one in…." And there are a tremendous number of government organizers and disorganizers and soothsayers.
But, of course, politics is not a game.
We must make changes, because, logically, there are comrades who have worn themselves out; they have run out of energy and are no longer able to handle the responsibilities they have on their shoulders. And we must make changes. But what I want to say is that it would be a fraud and we would be guilty of demagoguery, of unforgivable deception of the people, if we tried to make them believe that our problems are problems of individuals, if we tried to conceal the root of the matter, if we didn't come right out and say that it isn't a problem of an individual, group of individuals, or even teams. We believe this is a problem of the whole people! And we sincerely believe that the only way we can solve the problems we have today is by all working together—all of us—from the men in the highest positions of responsibility in the Party and state right on down to those in the most humble industrial plant and not just those in leadership positions there.
On this trip we discussed a series of ideas with the Minister of Labor. We said that we were still somewhat underdeveloped in the field of industrial administration. We explained why a factory of the people, which belongs to all the people, doesn't even belong to its workers. A worker wouldn't gain anything by being the owner of a cement factory together with his group, absolutely nothing at all. We have never shared that opinion.
We have seen the love the workers have for their factory—this is something else again—and believe it would be a good idea to link the workers' everyday life—even their family problems, vacations and birthdays, lots of things—to the job. The workers' affection for the factory would be strengthened if it were extended to tie in their families with their work. Some vacation plans have already been organized along these lines.
Some of the factories quite a way out from Santiago were assigned some of the buses that are being put together here in a shop which has greatly increased its productivity. The shop is assembling about four medium-sized buses a day. We gave some of these buses to the factories so the workers would use them at certain hours of the day. If a shift at a power plant or oil refinery winds up late at night and the workers have to try to catch a bus at a time when there are fewer buses on the streets, logically, the factory's buses could be used to take the workers to their destination. These same buses can be used when the vacation period comes around, to take the workers and their families to the beach or other recreation areas.
The problem of housing distribution can be handled through the factories, as well. And the workers should be the ones to make the decisions. They, better than anyone else, know which worker needs a home most, or if he has a home…. He should speak about it. This problem should never be solved through administrative channels.
In the same vein, we told the comrades in Santiago de Cuba whom we have assigned the cement, trucks, and electric concrete mixers that we couldn't solve that problem by looking for a labor force we don't have. Urgent problems such as that of housing can only be solved with the aid of the masses!
Why? We have already explained the manpower problems we have and our problems with important industrial installations, schools, hospitals, and new factories.
Among other things, over one hundred jobs involving the installation of the equipment that is already here must be done. We could add that the installation of plants that are already here must be completed before we bring in new ones. Before we bring in new plants, we must first have all the already established ones operating at full capacity. Before we purchase new plants, we must purchase lathes for maintenance shops, tools, gauging equipment, and, occasionally, even a motor—these are what we call microinvestments—in order to get all those plants operating at 100 percent capacity, first of all—and, if possible, at 110 percent—and raise the workers' productivity. We must also install all the equipment whose installation is still pending.
Suppose this crash program makes it impossible to organize the brigade needed to solve the problem of repairs…. What did we tell the people in a number of towns? In Caney, for instance, they said to us, "We don't have a barbershop or a store." And we said, "If we supply you with the materials, will you take care of the construction end?" The answer was, "We'll do it." The same thing happened in Mataguá, in Las Villas Province, and in Quiñones. We got the people together, and now they're even going to build a polyclinic. Right away a bricklayer pops up from somewhere, and then another, and then still another.
They're even going to build a thirty-bed polyclinic! They want a polyclinic? Then let them have the prefabricated sections and the equipment with which to do the job, and they'll take care of the construction. Because the main problem is to find ten or twenty workers to build a house, anywhere. This problem of housing should be handled by the masses—repairs in some cases, construction in others.
And we used to say to our comrades, "Whenever there is repair work to be done, never decide what's to be done by yourselves; let the neighbors decide, for only they have the right to decide, with their spirit of equity and justice, who needs the repairs the most." Because, even though the decision may rest on the administration, it is subordinate to a series of contradictions and opinions and even subject to the danger of favoritism. [Applause]
Let us conserve our men, let us protect our cadres from this danger, and let's make it a point that it will be the neighbors who will make the decisions. And if the neighbors make a mistake, they are allowed to make mistakes. It may be hard, but it's their decision. If the workers in a factory err on deciding on a problem of that type, it is hard, but it's the people's decision.
Take the problem of plant management. Last time we spoke of the work of the Party, of how we had to revive the work of the mass organizations and give them a broader field. But that is not enough. New problems come up, and we must delve deeper into the matter. We don't believe that the problems of managing a plant should fall exclusively to the manager. It would really be worthwhile to begin introducing a number of new ideas. There should be a manager, naturally—for there must always be someone accountable—but we must begin to establish a collective body in the management of each plant. A collective body! It should be headed by one man, but it should also be made up of representatives of the advance workers' movement, the Young Communist League, the Party, and the women's front—if such a front can be organized within the plant.
We must remember that, in a factory, we cannot appoint the Party Secretary to the post of manager—there are certain things on which we must have a clear understanding—nor can we appoint the manager as Party Secretary. This is because, if he devoted his time to the task of production, he wouldn't have time for anything else. The plant works with machines that handle material, and the Party works with men, handles men. The Party's raw material are the workers, and the management's raw material is just that—material. It could be iron or any other material. Each shop has its own laws, and that shop must be attended to; somebody must always be concerned about it. These tasks must not be confused, and the Party should not be held responsible for the management of the plant.
The Party's responsibility should be an indirect rather than a direct one. It is the Party that must immediately call the attention of the superior administrative body to any deficiency, any error of an administrative nature, but the Party should never tell the manager what to do. The functions of the head of the Party nucleus and those of the manager—or, rather, of administration—should be clearly defined.
Why should a manager have to be absolutely in charge? Why shouldn't we begin to introduce representatives of the factory's workers into its management? Why not have confidence? Why not put our trust in that tremendous proletarian spirit of men who, at times in torn shoes and clothes, nevertheless keep up production? [Applause]
And we'll have to work seriously on the problem of industrial efficiency, based mainly on labor productivity.
There can be the case of two factories, in one of which the workers seem to have attained higher productivity, due to the fact that that plant is better equipped technologically and its work force is more highly trained; while another factory, working under different conditions and apparently with a lower productivity per man, may be putting forth a greater effort.
Why do we mention these problems to our workers? Because there is something that is real and crystal-clear: Arithmetically speaking, the account does not jibe nor can it jibe. Those figures we mentioned in connection with our population growth, the age structure, the basic services that cannot be curtailed except at the cost of paying a terrible price for it in the future. Nonetheless, with all our inefficiency, we must solve those problems that we mentioned…. We must win the battle against inefficiency! We must win the battle against those difficulties!

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ:HTBI)
The other stock that I came across this morning just got caught in my "Google Alerts" web. I have one set up for "Thrift Conversions." These things really clog up your in-box but they're one of the best sources of ideas that know of. It's a piece from this week's Barron's on a thrift conversion, prototypical special situation that both Peter Lynch and Joel Greenblat talk about extensively in their books. The bank that is talked about, HomeTrust Bancshares (HTBI) doesn't seem to be very well-run at least in terns of its loan portfolio, but that theoretically can be fixed, especially if the economy continues to improve as I believe it will. Plus it's flush with cash after its recent conversion and cheap compared to its peers.Deej

Out of Stock
Item # TXU0183
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Tri Suits in stock than that.
2XU Long Distance Men's Trisuit $0.00
Engineered for speed.
While the 2XU Long Distance Trisuit is intended for endurance events, its cooling and quick drying fabric, which is optimized for aerodynamics, will assists in shorter distance events as well. But, when events start at dawn and stretch to dusk, this trisuit's muscle compression and premium ELITE LD chamois will ensure that you push hard all the way to the end.
So, you might be asking yourself what gives this suit the 'long distance' designation when compared to 2XU's other trisuit offerings? Well, while you still retain retain 2XU's hallmark compressive efforts, the primary composition of the Long Distance is made from the ICE X fabric. This material takes a twofold approach to endurance, starting with its yarn being embedded with Xylitol. Yes, the sugar substitute. And like its application in gum, your skin will receive a cooling rush when ICE X is confronted with perspiration. Basically, the material operates as a refrigerant that rapidly evaporates moisture, then converting it into cool air. So, the fabric counteracts heat by utilizing its byproduct -- kind of like physiological recycling. Additionally, the second approach to endurance is the material's IR blocking properties. This means that infrared light is largely blocked from penetrating the skin. What's infrared? Infrared light is the most predominant form of radiation from the sun's sea-level irradiance. Basically, IR transfers around 16% more heat to the body than visible light. So, limiting your skin's exposure to this energy minimizes spikes in your skin temperature. In fact, 2XU claims that ICE X will actually lower your skin temperature up to 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
Specifically placed panels of the Trisuit have also been constructed from 2XU's 70D Kinetic Speed fabric. Basically, the '70D' stands for 70 denier. What's a denier? Simply put, a denier is a unit of measure for the weight of a fabric. Technically speaking, it measures a fabric's grams-per-9000-meters. And while a typical recovery compression piece features a material choice around 200 deniers and up, the Trisuit uses a lighter, less constricting 70 denier fabric. This means that you still receive a lightly focused graduated compression, but the most direct gains are made through limiting muscle oscillation. So, whether you're getting slapped by wakes, getting rattled in the saddle, or pummeled by your pounding on the pavement, the Kinetic Speed fabric provides an enhanced level of muscle support that will minimize fatigue. Additionally, this material utilizes 2XU's turbulent airflow technology in order to minimize drag while you're in the saddle.
For the chamois, the Trisuit features 2XU's Elite LD insert. Developed specifically for triathlon, the Elite LD uses a thin, yet ample, 3mm variable density padding. This design provides the necessary support while in the saddle, but it won't become irritable over the course of your swim or run. In fact, 2XU selected this chamois because of its impressive ventilation and quick-drying characteristics.
To ensure the Trisuit's fit, 2XU placed its own non-abrasive, elastic leg grippers. Entry and exit of the suit is handled by a 3/4 length front, semi-autolock front zipper, and nutrition storage is made possible by three rear pockets. For further comfort, the Long Distance Trisuit features a complete flatlock seam construction. So, you won't experience anymore pinching or painful rubbing over your body.
The 2XU Long Distance Trisuit is available in six sizes from X-Small to XX-Large and in the colors Black/black and Charcoal/burnt orange.

As the narration hits its stride and a skull and ribcage half-buried in sand appear in Fallout 3's introduction, I suppress the little voice that's asking, no, begging me to stand up, stride around Bethesda's viewing area Poirot-style with my index finger raised in the air before pointing directly at the game's executive producer and loudly saying: "I put it to you, Todd Howard, that this very scene is taken directly - directly! - from the image you saw when you died in Fallout!"
At this point everyone would have applauded, and Howard would have come down from his control platform and given me a medal for being the biggest, bestest Fallout fan that there ever was. I would then have rolled over to let him tickle my tummy and we'd live forever in a little house on a prairie, where I'd often fetch sticks for him.
It's a strange fantasy (my girlfriend is a patient soul), but one that hit me again, and again and again as I was guided through the newly first person-ised wastes of Fallout 3. And I'm not just talking about the reappearance of Vault Boy's friendly face, or even the PIPBoy PDA gloriously strapped to your wrist. I'm talking about the little things. Within the Vault 101 itself even ventilation shafts, previously a smattering of pixels high that said 'rattle rattle rattle' when you fiddled them, give an almost uncanny sensation of déjà vu.
The same is true top-side as you enter the town of Megaton and a wary local sheriff warns you not to misbehave (as they always would back in the day before you did misbehave); or stand outside the Washington DC HQ of Galaxy News and see the globe that previously spun in intro scenes of previous Fallouts rendered as a glorious 3D statue. Much time has passed, but the whole damn thing just reeks of Fallout. Whoever thought there could be quite so many shades of brown?
The Fallout treatise states that come the year 2077, everyone lives in a very Jetsons-esque future - Mr Handy robots trundle around being helpful and saying "Good day to you sir!", and cars are powered by nuclear fusion. Unfortunately though, mankind still hasn't quite kicked the habit of murdering people, and things, quite spectacularly, fall apart.
A quick cut to 200 years into the future and the world is an arid, irradiated wasteland - peppered with death, decay, rusted-out cars harbouring rather explosive engines and cheery robots who have learned to call you a 'stupid git' as soon as your back is turned.
The game proper, as most things do, begins with a birth: your birth, deep within the loving steel confines of Vault 101. It's at this point that your masked father runs a DNA test on you, letting you choose your basic character details such as race and sex, after which your father will magically remove his mask to show that he shares the same genetic material.
He'll always have the voice of Liam Neeson though, that's a given.
Later, as the action skips to your first birthday, old Qui-Gon will presumably blow a party streamer in your face (I didn't actually see this bit) before presenting you with a book called 'You're SPECIAL!' in which you can choose your attributes. Then when you're 16, having presumably warned you of the dangers of unprotected sex, Rob Roy rushes you into a G.O.A.T. test for you to choose some specific skills.
200 years of isolation have bred a sense of claustrophobia and paranoia, with an almost dictatorial leader who has an intense mistrust of the outside world. Indeed, the Orwellian overtones of both the Vault's number and the nearby presence of Washington DC suggests that Bethesda may well be about to get a mite more political than previous Elder Scrolls bouts with Emperor Curious Septic III, or whoever.

My own experience is that deep stance training is more effective than stretching and high kicks for re-making young Northern Shaolin students bodies so that they have a bigger range of movement potential. This is sometimes called, "getting the qi in the channels."
While in my twenties, an hour a day of low stance training initially made my thigh muscles and shoulder muscles bigger, but as time passed and my alignment improved my muscles got smaller and smaller. This is sometimes called, "qi going into the bones."
It's true, my muscles got smaller. My alignment improved and along with it my ability to issue power, to connect (integrate), twist, and pulse (open/close). Believe it or not, I got weaker. Not lazy or deficient but muscularly weaker and functionally more sensitive.

Fascinating thesis: Chinese Opera (performing arts) and Chinese Martial arts were deeply interrelated until the 20th century:
Apparently entertainers were viewed as extremely low-class people, in a way reminiscent of the European prejudice against the Rom people, and so today's martial artists deny their arts' roots in opera, dance, and village ritual.
Look at the athleticism in this Chinese opera scene:
Take a look at Jackie Chan breaking bricks on this German TV show:
Oh, that Jackie. What a clown. I'm sure he doesn't know how to actually hit anybody.

Binn and
Gates, entering his ninth NFL season, was bothered by a plantar fasciitis injury most of last season. He'll be conservative with his body when possible during the weeks before the season-opener and rely on Head Coach Norv Turner and the training staff to decide when to push it and when to throttle back.
"I'm trying to get what I need to be well-rested and well-prepared," Gates said. "It's a give-and-take at this point."
Binn injured his hamstring in the season-opener at Kansas City and missed the rest of the year after playing in 269 of the last 270 Chargers games. San Diego used five long snappers last season but Binn should stabilize the position.
"It was weird not being in there," Binn said. "I feel back to my comfort zone right now. I'll keep working, stay healthy and do my thing."
