text: Yet more proof that the only difference between the major parties 99% of the time is who pays the bribe ... er ... lobbying fee. Media is hardly saying "boo" about this lawsuit against him. Gee, I wonder why. CORRUPTION RULES!!!!! http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-07-07/wall-street-spin-machine-mobilizes-for-corzine.html From the link: Levander also claimed the lawsuit is "based on meritless allegations that Mr. Corzine failed to supervise an experienced back office professional" -- O'Brien -- "who was located in a different city and who did not report to Mr. Corzine or even to anyone who reported to Mr. Corzine." But it's quite clear from the CFTC lawsuit that O'Brien was taking a lot of supervision from Corzine on how to move money around to keep MF Global from going down the tubes. Then there is Steven Goldberg, a partner at communications firm RLM Finsbury, who called the CFTC lawsuit "not surprising considering the political pressure to hold someone liable for the failure of MF Global." That's an even bigger joke: There has been zero political pressure to hold Corzine accountable for what he did to MF Global. In truth, the CFTC's vote to file the case against Corzine was unanimous. It also crossed political lines. (CFTC Chairman Gary Gensler, a former partner of Corzine's at Goldman, recused himself.) "Given the damning evidence, we'd be negligent if we hadn't brought a case," CFTC Commissioner Bart Chilton told me. He's absolutely right about that.

Some fun (& exciting!) news + some craftiness :)
Gossamer Blue, and I couldn't be happier!!
Lori (the owner) is a gem. I've 'known' her for several years, and she is the real deal...kind, generous and caring. Opting to join her Life Pages team was a no-brainer, and I had a blast creating with her kits this month. Things literally fell together...love when that happens.
This first layout was made using only the Life Pages kit. Plenty of exclusive 3x4 & 4x6 cards, loads of embellishments and a fun stamp set. Add to that, FREE cut files AND PRINTABLES are included with both the main Life Pages and 'traditional' scrapbooking kits.
I sized the 'happy' box to fit one of the 4x6 cards ;)
My second layout uses a mix of the Life Pages add-on kits + scrapbook kits. The add-ons are all sold out (wow!), but the main kits are not to be missed...look at everything you get HERE!
I really can't find the words to convey how happy I am about joining the GB Crew...they are a lovely, talented group of ladies with a wide range of styles, so please make sure to check their work out HERE:
Life Pages January Gallery
Scrapbook January Gallery
Also make sure to check out their subscription options...there is no minimum time commitment, free digital elements each month (different files for Scrapbook & Life Pages kits...no duplicates!), early access 24-hours prior to non-subscribers for kits/add-ons/classes...the details are all HERE:
Gossamer Blue FAQ
There is also a message board, and we would love to see new faces there, so please don't be shy!!
Thanks for letting me share my news...if you have any questions about their kits, please don't hesitate to ask and I will be happy to answer!!
Have a great week!

Xen: How to Convert An Image-Based Guest To An LVM-Based Guest
Submitted by falko (Contact Author) (Forums) on Thu, 2009-04-16 16:51. :: Xen | Virtualization
Xen: How to Convert An Image-Based Guest To An LVM-Based Guest
Version 1.0
This short article explains how you can move/convert a Xen guest that uses disk images to LVM volumes. Virtual machines that use disk images are very slow and heavy on disk IO, therefore it's often better to use LVM. Also, LVM-based guests are easier to back up (using LVM snapshots).
I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
1 Preliminary Note
To use LVM-based guests, you need a volume group that has some free space that is not allocated to any logical volume. In this example, I use the volume group /dev/vg0 with a size of approx. 465GB...
server1:~# vgdisplay
... that contains the logical volume /dev/vg0/root with a size of approx. 232GB and the logical volume /dev/vg0/swap_1 (about 1GB) - the rest is not allocated and can be used for Xen guests:
server1:~# lvdisplay
I have an image-based Xen guest called xen1.example.com that I created using the following command:
xen-create-image --hostname=xen1.example.com --size=4Gb --swap=256Mb --ip=192.168.0.101 --memory=128Mb --arch=amd64 --role=udev
This is its Xen configuration file:
vi /etc/xen/xen1.example.com.cfg
As you see, the guest is using two disk images, /home/xen/domains/xen1.example.com/disk.img (4GB) and /home/xen/domains/xen1.example.com/swap.img (256MB).
We need the exact image sizes so that we can create logical volumes of the same size. If you don't remember the exact disk and swap sizes anymore, you can go to the directory where the images are stored...
cd /home/xen/domains/xen1.example.com
... and run the following command - it will show the image sizes in human-readable format:
ls -lh
2 Converting The Images To LVM
Before we convert the images, we must shut down the guest:
xm shutdown xen1.example.com
Then we create logical volumes of the same size as the disk images, e.g. as follows:
lvcreate -L4G -n xen1_root vg0
This creates the logical volumes /dev/vg0/xen1_root (4GB) and /dev/vg0/xen1_swap (256MB):
server1:~# lvdisplay
Now we can convert the images as follows:
dd if=/home/xen/domains/xen1.example.com/disk.img of=/dev/vg0/xen1_root
(This can take a lot of time, depending on how big the images are.)
Afterwards, we must open /etc/xen/xen1.example.com.cfg...
vi /etc/xen/xen1.example.com.cfg
... and change...
... to ...
You can now start the guest again:
xm create /etc/xen/xen1.example.com.cfg
If everything goes well, you can delete the disk images:
rm -f /home/xen/domains/xen1.example.com/disk.img

Great quality & design
Love in the Woods Save the Date Magnets I'm so happy with my MagnetStreet purchase! They have so many designs to choose from, its easy to save my work, and shipping was quick! Very cost effective as well - thanks!
Perfect save the Dates!!!!
Sketched in Love Save the Date Magnets I found these perfect little magnets after my fiancé an I decided on the "Sketched in Love" wedding invitation. They are a little larger than a business card and are perfect size if your like me and don't care for the huge save the dates that are so common today. As well as being affordable the quality is great. The print was clear and legible. I opted for only one photograph in the top corner. They turned out absolutely beautiful and just like I designed them. They even arrived ahead of schedule! I also added in the location for those who want to make reservations early since we are having a destination wedding!
Great Save-the-Date Magnet
Autumn Stamp Save the Date Magnets I orderd my save-the-date magnets and they turned out amazing. I got a smaller size to save in price and this Magnet Street seemed to be the only site that I could find with this smaller size option. It was very easy to add personalization to the magnet and they came out exactly as I had expected. We received the magnets in a timely manner (and they were in a very professional box and display - very organized). No complaints - I would definitely recommend this site to a friend.
Save the Dates
Enchanted Encounter Save the Date Magnets I think magnet street is great for doing your own personalized save the dates and/or invitations. The website is super easy to use, and I can customize any design, down the font and color. Whenever I needed help, I just emailed and got a reply the same day. My save the dates are precious, I love them, and I love that I have already customized my invitations and can save them in my profile and make changes when I need to. I will definitely do my invitations with magnet street, too!
Perfect Save the Dates!!!
Autumn Stamp Save the Date Magnets I love how you can change all the colors and text to match your exact needs. After ordering they even sent a preview with some changes they made to enhance the text better that I wouldn't have thought of. They came out even better than I expected. Can't wait to order the matching invitations, and thank you cards! I would absolutely recommend this product for a fabulous Autumn wedding! Thanks again!

BSN vs. RN Salary - page 3
Hi! I got a lot of information about RN salaries from another thread. What it seems to be, is that around the Bham area, starting salaries are at about $18/hr. My question is, to any of you that know, or any of you that are... Read More
- 6May 13, '10 by steelcityrnHaha..people say the strangest things! I am a diploma nurse, and I am holding a title of management with the money that comes with it.
- 0May 17, '10 by nitronymphWhatever it takes to get you up and going in the morning...whatever it takes for you to love your job! I'm a staff nurse and LOVE direct patient care!!!! I don't need a BSN(only lack 5 classes, mainly clinicals and theory component)to enjoy what I do. Besides, where I work, the salary is not but $1/hr more for a BSN. You actually have to "climb" the career ladder to achieve the big $2/hr more that is available only if you "climb" the ladder. By the way, we have ADNs who are department managers and over BSN holders in their department! I am happy with me, just as I am, and my patients are, too!
- 4Jun 28, '10 by Bloop23I am a nursing student (BSN) and from my experience there is no difference between knowledge base and skill level of Associate or BSN prepared nurses who have been working for a while. However, difference I've experienced in critical thinking skills between and nursing theory knowledge among BSN students and Associates students is pretty big (I'm going to get torched for this but its been my honest experience). I go to school in Philadelphia, most major hospitals are magnet and only hire BSN due to magnet status.
I feel like the goal of a BSN program is to prepare you for an APN career or career in management. My school, inparticular, doesn't give us enough practice in nursing skills but overloads us in nursing and medical theory. I feel underprepared to be an entry level nurse in terms of practice and over prepared in terms of theory. Associates programs are the exact opposite, I feel like they are great nurses because programs emphasize what nurses actually do and under emphasize theory.
In terms of management, BSN and MSN nurses just sound better on paper. Management is about leadership and your ability to make sound decisions, not necessarily related to level of education. However, graduate degrees demonstrate your ability in higher level thinking which is valuable as you strategize to make your unit or hospital (if your an executive) run as efficiently as possible.
- 2Jul 22, '10 by crnawant2beMy hospital pays more for a BSN (3%) + 3% more for MSN but also pays 3% for CCRN, PCCN or any other cert. they consider it more edu but BSN does not make you a better nurse. (case in point one of the most imperessive open heart nurses in our unit is a 20+ year LPN. I have more respect for her than some BSN I work with) just my
- 0Jul 23, '10 by TheChair1Quote from MsCTNo, i highly doubt holding two associates degrees would yield one a higher salary.I am so glad to see this information. I just signed up for Associates of Nursing program. I feel so much better now. I do have an Associates in General STudies. Do you think I would make a little more with two associate degrees?
- 12Jul 25, '10 by NightAngelleI'm gonna take heat for this post...but it is all good...
I've been an ADN for eleven years. I've seen the threads on allnurses.com for years debating the validity of ADN vs. BSN. And for a long time, I've sided with the ADNs regarding "What's a BSN got to do with it?" Trust me, I shared that frustration.
I am enrolled in a RN-BSN program at Auburn University-Montgomery. The three semester program has a cute nickname..."Perspective Transformation Journey." And perspective changing it has been. Earlier, a poster mentioned that other "professions" require at best, a Bachelor's degree for entry level practice. That being said, in order to be taken seriously as a profession, we need to up the ante on our educational requirements to gain that said respect. It has nothing to do with "I've been a manager with my Associate's degree, and that's where I'm gonna stick it" mentality, or "I know LPNs that run circles around some of the RNs on our unit." Although this may be true, it does not hold weight for us as a PROFESSION.
My professor made a profound statement in class one day.."Anyone can train a monkey to be a nurse. But monkeys do not have multiple level critical thinking skils." Now, that being said, I reiterate I've been an ADN for eleven years. I am highly intelligent, and very technically sound, and can see sh*t hitting the fan hours before it comes (intuition). However, in just ONE SEMESTER, my horizons have been broadened. Just what does it mean to be a "nurse"? Most people describe us as "caring, compassionate, devoted, loving, blah, blah blah...". But who ever describes a nurse CONSISTENTLY as SMART, EDUCATED, etc...and why is it that when we show promise to people like our patients, they ask us why we didn't go to MEDICAL school??? One day, when we gain respect as a profession, our patients will say..."Wow..you are something else. NO WONDER YOU BECAME A NURSE."
The professional nurse does more than manage and think critically. He/she gives back to their community, they teach, they participate in forward moving legislation for our field, they contribute to evidence-based research, they participate ACTIVELY in their professional organizations, and they think OUTSIDE the box. If you are happy with being an ADN, and the shoe fits, by all means wear it. I've worn those shoes for ELEVEN YEARS. But I pat myself on the back for being open-minded and giving myself a chance to be a more well-rounded nurse who wants to be taken as seriously as she takes herself.
Check out the BSN in 10 initiative. Google it. People, there is a reason the Magnet movement exists. And it ain't all about YOU. It's about nursing- as a profession! When we stop looking at the BSN as a stepping stone to advanced practice nursing, and more like progression of our profession, our pay rates will change, our level or respect will change, we will get the legislation we need to end the nursing shortage, and maybe, just MAYBE, those little "naughty nurse outfits" will slowly fade into oblivion because we will be taken MORE SERIOUSLY!!
- 0Aug 12, '10 by gking2010Well in the hospital setting nurses with a BSN can become a manager if they wanted after a few years of staff nursing. I really dont see a difference because we all take the same exam. I mean why dont we just be a BSN after the nclex. I know folks from a BSN program that didn't even pass their exam yet. My school passing rates are better than most 4 year colleges. I chose the ADN route so that i could make money and then go back if I choose to.
- 0Aug 12, '10 by indreams84Quote from sosiouxmeAn RN with only the "ADN" (which, by the way, is not considered a college degree) would make as much as someone with a BSN only if they hold the same position. However, most BSN's are hired at higher levels than the non-degreed RN's to begin with. With the ADN - you will almost never advance to the same level as someone with a BSN, or better, a Master's, can achieve.
ADN= associate DEGREE nursing from two year COLLEGE.....and yes, actually our ICU hires and pays BSN and ADNs equally. Perhaps you may advance eventually, but by the time you can, the ADN can earn their BSN@home for a fraction of the cost.....when I graduate this December from an ADN ill have ZERO student debt and am starting my BSN while getting an ICU job. Can you say the same?Last edit by tnbutterfly on Aug 12, '10 : Reason: Inflammatory
- 0Aug 13, '10 by denit1amThis forum is ridiculous, RN vs BSN. I am going into an accelerated program at an community college in Michigan that happens to hold to highest board pass rate in the state of Michigan, and that is competing with MSU and UofM. I also know from holding a bachelors degree in Cardiac Rehab, most of the classes you take to obtain your degree are a joke. I will eventually get my BSN just because I know its something to put on a resume when another position opens with higher pay. I know of bridge programs offered only have a couple nursing courses, but I also know of associate nursing programs that don't require Pathophisiology as a prerequisite. I guess choosing a school and the way you spend your time learning to material and being successful at taking the boards is more important than arguing over RN vs BSN, becuase at the end you all hold the same title RN.

Description And Comments
Beetlejuice's Graveyard Mash-up features Dracula, the Wolfman, Frankenstein and his bride singing pop music from the 1980s, such as Michael Jackson and Motley Crue, with a few recent pop songs thrown in for the kids. Beetlejuice, the title character from the 1988 film of the same name, serves as the show's emcee, adding monster jokes, groan-worthy puns, and pop-culture references in between songs. When the show switched over from Graveyard Revue to Graveyard Mash-up in February of 2014, longtime cheerleader characters Hip and Hop were replaced by Cleopatra (a female Mummy) and Phantasia (a female Phantom of the Opera), and a quartet of ghoulish backup dancers were added to the mix.
This is not one of Orlando's best theme park shows, though it is starting to grow on us after years suffering through the exhausted earlier incarnation. The performers don't play any instruments, so the show seems a little like a Halloween-themed karaoke party, without alcohol to make everything better. But the new cast admirably gives their all in executing the non-stop energetic choreography, and several of the actors have stellar vocal chops.
Beetlejuice no longer gets to improv interactively in the audience, and is no longer really the star of his own show now. His dialog was also made more family-friendly since the last iteration, to combat complaints about his risqué jokes; still, keep an eye on DJ in the background for some snarky sight gags.
While the show runs around 20 minutes there is almost no break between any of the songs (or mash-ups), making sitting through a set almost an exhaustive ordeal. The pyrotechnics are less percussive but more frequent than before, and the soundtrack is still cranked to 11, making for an audio assault on the audience.
Songs used in Beetlejuice's Graveyard Mash-up:
- "Let's Go Crazy" by Prince
- "Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics
- "Walk Like an Egyptian" by The Bangles
- "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper
- "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns n' Roses
- "Dr. Feelgood" by Motley Crue
- "Be My Frankenstein" by Alice Cooper
- "What I Like About You" by The Romantics
- "You Really Got Me" by The Kinks
- "Smooth Criminal" by Michael Jackson
- "Ballroom Blitz" by The Sweet
The show is staged in a covered theater.

Gears of War Judgment is still a far ways off from release, and while Microsoft didn't exactly reveal some breaking news about the game this past week at E3 (it was probably more concerned about hyping the forthcoming Halo 4), it did have a private booth on the show floor that let players try out a new multiplayer mode being offered in the People Can Fly-produced prequel. Say hello to Overrun mode.
I've been a big fan of Virtua Tennis for years, getting my start back on the Sega Dreamcast with several spirited multiplayer sessions and eventually moving on to other platforms to see what they have to offer. Most recently, the series hit its stride on the PlayStation Vita with a modified version of Virtua Tennis 4, and though not all the modes were to my liking, the core gameplay and various other options delivered service with a smile. So, tell me, why couldn't Sega do the same thing with its iPad port of the game?
Last year's DiRT 3, I think, was the pinnacle for Codemasters' long-running rally racing series, as it simply got everything just right. The feel of the cars, the variety of the tracks, the sheer thrill of flying off a jump and landing for a first place finish…everything just clicked. So with that, the team was probably wondering…"So what next?" We get that answer today with the release of DiRT Showdown, a not-so-routine sequel where you're taking part in a racing festival, competing in fun – and quite destructive – racing events.
More often than not, I always hear about these developers who try to load a multiplayer game with an abundant amount of features, whether it's additional weaponry, new maps or some other technical doodad that's trying to draw attention. But, honestly, the best kind of multiplayer games are the simplest ones, built upon an ideal concept that players can immediately grasp onto. For some inexplicable reason, When Vikings Attack, a new PlayStation Network effort from Clever Beans, found its way into our hearts.
The idea behind E3 was to showcase the latest and brightest games of 2012, but there are always a few games that disappoint us. Some games on our list made serious changes to their formula, and not for the better. Other games took center stage at E3 when they shouldn't have. There were many games at E3, but here is our top five list of disappointments.
When Virtua Fighter 5 initially released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 a few years back, it entertained long-time fans of Sega AM2's brawling series, though some missing features – namely online play on the PS3 – left them being somewhat uneven. But the company finally resolved those differences this past week with the release of Final Showdown, a long-awaited follow-up that fixes some (but not all) of the mistakes, thus making it a smoother fighting experience. And cheaper, too.
Ubisoft had a huge set-up on the E3 show floor this week, with a number of major sequels available for play, as well as two new Wii U titles coming out in time for the system's launch later this year. But one of its hidden gems, tucked away in a behind-closed-doors section in its offices, was The Avengers: Battle For Earth. Based on the popular Marvel franchise of the same name, this game demonstrated some proper use of Kinect motions when it came to controlling some of your favorite superheroes and villains. So, of course, we were eager to give it a test drive.
Jesper Kyd has been working his music composing magic in a number of projects over the years. Fans will immediately recognize his work from the Assassin's Creed series, as well as entries in the Hitman series and the original Borderlands. But now he's stepping his game up with Death, producing an epic new soundtrack for Darksiders II, which releases this August. We had a chance to chat with him about the upcoming game, as well as what else he's working on.
This year's Electronic Entertainment Expo was supposed to be the place where Nintendo would proclaim domination with its Wii U device, and show the world what its next gen system could do. And while there were more than enough games to go around, Nintendo themselves only had so many surprises up its sleeve, with the main one being…Nintendoland? That said, the company came up short in its presentation, and we count the five most crucial ways they did so.
When Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure released last year, Activision and the development team at Toys For Bob were taking a pretty big gamble, producing toys that interacted with the video game at hand, presenting a unique new experience for gamers everywhere. But, boy, did it pay off. Making over $30 million in revenue between game and toy sales, it proved to be a reputable new franchise for the company. So, of course, it's understood that they're taking advantage by releasing a much-improved sequel in time for the holiday season. You ready to take on some Giants?
One of our most anticipated games for the summer is actually coming right near the end of it, High Moon Studios' Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. We're not sure if it's the genuine old-school appeal of the 80's franchise (and we mean in the form of animated series, not Michael Bay's movies) or the fact that 2010's War For Cybertron was immensely enjoyable. Either way, we're in for a treat with the sequel, as Activision recently invited us to go hands-on with it at a pre-E3 session.
While Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions and Spider-Man are great games in their own right (and proof that Beenox has a heck of a track record), there's this inescapable thought that the games feel "closed in", without giving Spidey too much room to roam around. It's a change of pace from what we were able to do with him in Treyarch's movie-licensed Spider-Man games. Again, they're not bad at all, but some of you have been clamoring for a return to the "go anywhere, do anything" style. Well, later this month you'll be getting just that with The Amazing Spider-Man. And Activision recently invited us down to go hands-on with him.
Assassin's Creed 3 Creative Director Alex Hutchinson shares more details on Assassin's Creed 3 at E3 2012 in this exclusive video interview. Set in the American Revolution, Assassin's Creed 3 introduces us to a new assassin Connor as he navigates the American frontier alongside the likes of General George Washington as they fight off the British in the American Revolution.
For the past couple of years, 2K Sports has been dominating the paint with its NBA 2K franchise, as 2K12 managed to sell well over five million copies, thanks to the help of a talented development team and, of course, a virtual Michael Jordan. But the pressure is on this year, as EA Sports is bringing back NBA Live in a big way. 2K, however, isn't breaking a sweat. Live didn't even make it to E3 this year, and the team had its own plans with NBA 2K13, which it showed to us behind closed doors.
The Metal Gear Solid franchise has always been known for creating a captivating atmosphere that originated in Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. At that time Hideo Kojima development work was the hallmark of game design and video game storytelling. But much has changed since then and with Snake's storyline wrapped up in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, it's time for the series to move in a new direction. They're for, a new development team and a new main focus is the story behind Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

CytRx To Present At The Jefferies 2014 Global Healthcare Conference
CytRx Corporation (Nasdaq: CYTR), a biopharmaceutical research and development company specializing in oncology, today announced that President and CEO Steven A. Kriegsman and Vice President of Business Development David Haen will present at the Jefferies 2014 Global Healthcare Conference on Wednesday, June 4, 2014 at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The conference is being held June 2-5 in New York City.
A live and archived webcast of the presentation will be available on the Company's website at www.cytrx.com/investors/presentations.
About CytRx Corporation
CytRx Corporation is a biopharmaceutical research and development company specializing in oncology. CytRx currently is focused on the clinical development of aldoxorubicin (formerly known as INNO-206), its improved version of the widely used chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin. CytRx has completed a global Phase 2b clinical trial with aldoxorubicin as a first-line therapy for soft tissue sarcomas, a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial primarily in the same indication, a Phase 1b study of aldoxorubicin in combination with doxorubicin in patients with advanced solid tumors and a Phase 1b pharmacokinetics clinical trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. CytRx recently initiated, under a special protocol assessment, a pivotal Phase 3 global trial with aldoxorubicin as a therapy for patients with soft tissue sarcomas whose tumors have progressed following treatment with chemotherapy. The Company also recently announced that it has received approval from the FDA to continue dosing patients with aldoxorubicin until disease progression in that clinical trial. CytRx has initiated a Phase 2 clinical trial with aldoxorubicin in patients with late-stage glioblastoma (brain cancer), and a Phase 2 clinical trial in HIV-related Kaposi's sarcoma. CytRx plans to expand its pipeline of oncology candidates based on a linker platform technology that can be utilized with multiple chemotherapeutic agents and may allow for greater concentration of drug at tumor sites. CytRx also has rights to two additional drug candidates, tamibarotene and bafetinib. CytRx completed its evaluation of bafetinib in the ENABLE Phase 2 clinical trial in high-risk B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL), and plans to seek a partner for further development of bafetinib.

"The best and the worst things you hear about him are both true."Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964) was an American general during the time of the Second World War and the Korean War. He was one of only five to receive the rank General of the Army in the U.S. Army. He is a highly polarizing man in American history - you either think he was a great war hero and commander, or a dangerous and egotistical madman. As the youngest major general by 1925, MacArthur became the Chief of Staff of the United States Army. Infamously, MacArthur was sent by Herbert Hoover to peacefully remove jobless World War One veterans marching on Washington - instead, MacArthur used tanks and injured hundreds. He was the lone field marshal of the Philippine Army, of which he supervised and spearheaded its foundation and development. A Medal of Honor recipient, MacArthur played a prominent role in (among others) the Pacific War, the Philippines campaign and the New Guinea campaign, elevating to the role of Supreme Allied Commander for the Allied Forces. As the de facto military governor of Japan, he effectively restructured Japanese society in the aftermath of the occupation, thereby garnering the nickname of Gaijin Shogun, aka the Foreign Generalissimo. If you could describe him with one word, it would be "imperious." He was very much his own man, caring little - if at all - about any established power outside of his own, whether it was other nations or that of his superiors. He disobeyed or ignored orders entirely, even getting into verbal clashes with Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman. He promoted soldiers based on their loyalty towards the general, and his influence extended through the Army and some on the Air Force, but never in the Navy. He was eventually relieved of command by Truman, largely because he wanted to use nuclear weapons during the Korean War. On China at the height of the Cold War. His public criticism of Truman's policies didn't help his case.
—Sir Thomas Blamey, summing up the character of General MacArthur.
Tropes That Apply to MacArthur:

Cam'ron – Movin' Raw Lyrics (feat. Vado)
I feel like, the streets is hungrier than ever!
I feel like this is necessary! (Uh) Vado you with me?
I keep my ear to the streets so I can hear what niggas thinkin' 'bout me
You ain't gotta ask niggas what they think about me
Leave your party before the toast, like ya'll could drink without me
Keep a set of twins baddest Tamara Tia Maudie
Berkin' badge, lookin' like her purse pregnant
Hottest track in seeing my worst record, no work ethic
No hooks, we just making sure every verse reckless
Whats presented without a way, you hearing first segment
Shoot up's with niggas from up the block from me
Pick the drop off, damn near stole a whole block from me
Convertible ass niggas, then gave the drop on me
Feelin' myself in this presidential like Barack on E
Diamond bezel, red face, never under sleeps
Gunner squeeze, no chain, neck a hundred beads
Send my dogs at you, had you cast, running trees
Coke or weed, you could eat here, just no pumpin' D
Winter, Summer, Spring, Fall
24 we be movin' rawwwww
Lennox, 7th, 8th of the Broad
Wayward way, we move it all
Chloe, Louie, Fendi for Cindy
Don't be salty brother (why you mad?)
Lori different story, Maury, multi-colors
Move sour D, hourly, 100 gram is our fee
Push flower, but stay powder free
24 hours, Jack Bauer, lack pop black top
Black power, spray 'em up, fast shower
And might I tell, my clientele is buying well
Wanna say gracias to Raphael, might as well
Cause y'all copy cats, 10-4 copy that
Wanna pull me in? Well you got me back, cocked the Mack
Popped his hat, quarter mill I lost it but I got it back
Flipped it quick, tripled it
How hot is that, how hot is that?
It's like I'm scoring, you give me I'll make a lot of points
These ain't Adidas, these the D&G soccer joints
They got four stripes, me, I got 5 baby
G14, 1 Ounce, 580
Winter, Summer, Spring, Fall
24 we be movin' rawwwww
Lennox, 7th, 8th of the Broad
Wayward, way we move it all
Yo, find 'em leanin' at the bar, 50 shots of liqueur
Guess who the hotter nigga (Vado!)
You aggy, should be happy I got a lot of niggas
Mescata niggas, that's why I designed Prada niggas
Bout it niggas, just squeeze, don't think about it niggas
Kavali zippers, guap flippers, work the route
Show you how to drop pounds off without workin' out
I'm who you heard about, just off of word of mouth
Thanksgiving, find 'em in the fox, handing turkeys out
Man, I see why they hatin', or try my patience
Cause my earrings are lookin' like some diamond datin's
Truck sirens and the lights send the wire out
Hoes in the crib bitch, welcome to the fire house!
What you'a crying about? My entire route.. (what else?)
Well my entire 'bout to be there and requires clout
Fuck it, try 'em out, come up short, lie 'em out
Hitman, fly 'em out, this is what fly's about.
Winter, Summer, Spring, Fall
24 we be movin' rawwwww
Lennox, 7th, 8th of the Broad
Wayward, way we move it all
Winter (Yep), Summer (Word), Spring (I know), Fall (Damn)
24 we be movin' rawwwww
Lennox (yes), 7th (huh?!), 8th of the Broad (Harlem!)
Wayward, way we move it all

Audiences are invited to follow a passionate traveler on his flight from destruction to find the promise land in the original two-act play, "Pilgrim's Progress," at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 17-20 in the Davis Administration Building's Alumni Auditorium. Friends University's ACTS of FAITH will be presenting a new comic adaptation of Patrick Dorn's poignant 17th century classic by John Bunyan. Though originally produced by Denver's The Troupe in 2008, this will be that production's Kansas premiere.
Friends University's faculty members will showcase their diverse musical talents in the Faculty Brass Quintet Concert at 3 p.m. Nov. 13 in the Riney Fine Arts Center's Sebits Auditorium. The concert will be comprised of four brass instrument professors: Dr. Gary It's sure to be a reunion of epic proportions, as more than 70 alumni of the Singing Quakers will come together in a Concert of American Classics at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 12 at the Eastminster Presbyterian Church, 1958 N. Webb Road in Wichita.
Friends University's faculty members will showcase their diverse musical talents in the Faculty Brass Quintet Concert at 3 p.m. Nov. 13 in the Riney Fine Arts Center's Sebits Auditorium. The concert will be comprised of four brass instrument professors: Dr. Gary Leopold on trumpet, Denise Kintzel on horn, Steve Slater on trombone and Dr. John Taylor on tuba. Also performing will be trumpeter Dana Hamant, who is the band director at Wichita East High School and trumpeter in the Wichita Symphony Orchestra.
The Friends University Jazz Department will present a concert that will feature both vocal and instrumental jazz students. The concert will be at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 11 in the Riney Fine Arts Center's Sebits Auditorium.
The Friends University Jazz Vocal Ensemble, directed by Craig Curry, will perform a variety of jazz standards and the Friends University Jazz Ensemble II, under the direction of Lisa Hittle, will conclude the concert.
Tickets costs $8 for adults and $5 for senior citizens and students. Tickets can be purchased at the door or by calling 316-295-5677.
Since 1996, Friends University's composer- or conductor-in-residence program has brought fresh and powerful talent to the stage in Wichita. This year will be no different as Larry Clark, renowned band composer and conductor leads the Friends University Concert Band in a performance of his own compositions at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 7 in the Riney Fine Arts Center's Sebits Auditorium.
The Sebits Auditorium will be alive in celebration of Franz Liszt's 200th birthday at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 3 in the Riney Fine Arts Center.Dr. James Knight, Friends University professor of piano, will perform in honor of Liszt – the Hungarian composer, pianist, conductor and teacher – who was born Oct. 22, 1811. In fact, musicians all over the world are programming Liszt's works in honor of the occasion; and even the Budapest Ferihegy International Airport has been renamed the Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport.
Be prepared to witness the dark side of dance when students take the stage in "Nicest Kids in Town" at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 28-29 in the Riney Fine Arts Center's Sebits Auditorium. The third annual student-led showcase has "a dark-to-light theme," said Cherie Sullivan, senior Music Theatre major. "The first act has a more dark and creepy feeling to it. 'Is It Scary' is a Michael Jackson dance with a little Halloween theme to it. And the second act is more light and fun with hopeful songs."
Lawrence, Kan., artist Elizabeth Rowley is on a continuous quest to find and showcase the reality of the world.
"I try to truly see – not just look – at the spaces I am in every day. And then I translate this visual information to the spaces I create," said Rowley. "I can only hope that this search for the real will be a constant reminder of why I continually search and strive for these real experiences."
The Friends University Jazz Department will present Casado Jazz Night at 8 p.m. Oct. 19 in Friends University's Casado Campus Center. The guest artist will be Dr. Ron McCurdy, trumpet player and director of Jazz Studies at the University of Southern California.
Admission is free and the performance is staged in a relaxed coffeehouse atmosphere. All four Friends University Jazz Combos will be featured. The combos are directed by Friends University faculty Lisa Hittle, Beau Jarvis, Jeff Gordon and Randy Zellers.
Call 316-295-5677 for more information.
Audiences will walk the plank into the perilous hilarity of W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan's ocean of comedic opera, as those peerlessly predacious "Pirates of Penzance" take the stage at Friends University.
An unruly band of pirates, giggling girls, blundering policemen, a "very model of a modern Major-General," and – of course – a dashing protagonist will take the stage in this charming and ridiculous performance of this Gilbert and Sullivan classic.

Home > CHIA SEEDS PART II
by Dave Foreman
Over a year ago I wrote a feature article on Chia for my newsletter. A year later, it seems like Chia is still misunderstood - and it shouldn't be. Let me put it this way, if you haven't looked into using Chia as part of your everyday diet - YOU SHOULD! Chia has been around for centuries and is perhaps one of the best superfoods you can add to your everyday diet (read Step 3 of 4 steps to a healthier you on superfoods). I know that most of us think of The Vitamin Shoppe as a place to buy our supplements, but these days it is where I buy my superfoods too. Chia is a new addition to my family's everyday diet. Why? Check out the following info and you might want to add this amazing seed to your family's diet too.
The nutritional profile of Chia is amazing. Here are just a few reasons why:
High in Omega-3
The oil from the seeds naturally contains more than 60% Omega-3 fatty acid. This is the higher than any other plant we know. Chia seeds do not have to be ground up prior to consumption like many other seeds high in good fats, which adds a convenience factor. Health Benefits: Cardiovascular, Weight Loss, Anti-inflammatory, Cellular, etc. Just about every health challenge benefits from more Omega-3s.
High in Protein
It is estimated that between 19 and 23% of the seed by weight is protein. This, too, is higher than most other seeds and grains. Combining the good fats with an excellent source of protein make this a dieter's dream. Health Benefits: Weight Loss, Bone Support, Blood Sugar, Athletic Recovery and Performance.
High in Fiber
We need to consume 35+ grams of fiber per day and if it doesn't come from your food you must supplement. Now, with Chia, a one tablespoon serving can give you about 1/5th of your daily needs (7.4 grams). One tablespoon of Chia isn't very much so I recommend at least 2 to 4 per day as part of your daily diet. in addition, Chia can absorb up to 30 times its weight in water. This also works with other liquids like juices. This ability can prolong hydration (I call it having time-released water) and retain electrolytes in body fluids, especially during exertion or exercise. Health Benefits: Digestive, Diabetes, Cardiovascular, etc.
Chia contains Vitamin C and Vitamin E but also has something named Cinnamic acids. It is believed that these three (especially the cinnamic acid) help preserve the seeds, and, more importantly, protect the good fats from oxidizing (going bad). Health Benefits: Everything!
This one will make you stop in your tracks: Just two ounces of Chia seeds contain 600mg of Calcium, compared with 120mg per the same serving size of milk. Following the Herbal Pharmacist® recommendations to find your vitamins and minerals in a food or "food form" makes Chia a top suggestion for those looking for more calcium in their diet without having to take more tablets or capsules. Throw on top of it that Chia also contains Boron - a critical mineral for bones. This also becomes part of your diet for those concerned with Osteoporosis and overall bone health. Health Benefits: Bone, Cardiovascular, Athletic Performance and Recovery, etc. The bottom line: Chia is a great superfood! You and the rest of your family (all ages) can benefit from adding this to your diet. It has no taste, so even your kids won't object.

Smart Grid Program Created Nearly 2,700 Jobs In First Quarter 2013
CHICAGO, May 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ComEd announced that work related to the Smart Grid program created nearly 2,700 full-time equivalent jobs in the first quarter of 2013. These include nearly 900 direct full-time equivalent jobs at the utility and its contractors as submitted in a report to the Illinois Commerce Commission, plus nearly 1,800 indirect full-time equivalent positions.
The report showed that the grid modernization program produced 896 full-time equivalent positions, including 313 at the utility and 583 at its contractors. In addition, based on the proportion of direct to indirect jobs created by the program in 2012, ComEd estimates that 1,792 indirect jobs were generated in the first quarter among a variety of businesses that benefit from the ripple effect of capital spending. Throughout 2012, the Smart Grid program created 785 full-time equivalent jobs at the utility and its contractors along with an estimated 1,700 indirect jobs.
"The Smart Grid program continues to create new opportunities at ComEd, among labor and supplier partners, and at other businesses benefitting indirectly as we build a 21st century electric grid," said Anne Pramaggiore, president and CEO, ComEd. "This important work is strengthening our system, improving reliability and helping keep Illinois competitive in a digital economy that requires high quality electric service."
Smart Grid job creation will continue to grow with the enactment of Senate Bill 9, which will put the program back on track by clarifying language in the original law. Smart Grid deployment, which began in January of 2012, has provided an important boost to local manufacturers and service providers with the expertise needed to support the electrical system upgrade."Because of the Smart Grid program, we are working with ComEd to accelerate the installation of distribution automation technology, which is recognized globally for the customer benefits it provides," said John Estey, executive chairman of S&C Electric Company in Chicago. "The technology creates a self-healing capability that is already reducing the frequency and duration of customer interruptions in northern Illinois." The Smart Grid law passed in 2011 authorized ComEd to invest $2.6 billion over 10 years to modernize the electric grid in northern Illinois, over $1.3 billion of which is earmarked to build a Smart Grid network and install smart meters in four million homes and businesses. ComEd's grid modernization plan for 2013 includes $148 million in capital investments dedicated to system reliability, including the inspection and refurbishment of cable, poles and manholes, along with storm hardening to improve resiliency of circuits especially susceptible to storms. The utility will also invest approximately $80 million in Smart Grid technology this year, including the digital upgrading of two ComEd substations with micro-processor relays. ComEd also will add more than 600 distribution automation devices that automatically reroute power around potential problem areas, often with no noticeable interruption in service. Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) is a unit of Chicago-based Exelon Corporation (NYSE: EXC), the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately 6.6 million customers. ComEd provides service to approximately 3.8 million customers across northern Illinois, or 70 percent of the state's population. SOURCE ComEd

Samhita Mukhopadhyay asked today on Al Jazeera: Can online dating ever be women-friendly? She talks in her op-ed about the challenges of online dating after your mid-30s, the rash of gross misogynist messages you can expect to receive as a woman on online dating sites, and how Tinder was intended to be woman-friendly, but can it really be woman-friendly if its creators don't know what life is like as a woman and have, now, been accused of sexual harassment? She doesn't mention sites like Straight White Boys Texting, which cull their content from Tinder users, among others, and which seems like a pretty pertinent point: Even if you "approve" of them based on their profile, you have no guarantee of how a potential date will actually treat you in real time.
Her conclusion is this pretty depressing last-stage-of-grief coping mechanism: "It's as though the offensiveness on dating sites becomes a sorting mechanism, a virtual last man standing; only the last man is (hopefully) not a drunk sexist jerk." My god. I mean, I know what she's talking about. I've been there. It's just that I was 25 and after four months of being on OKCupid the well of all right guys had already dried up and I couldn't find anyone who was neither sexist nor duplicitous nor hyper-defensive (I expect from previous bad online dating experiences of their own).

TRN: The Coaches' View37
There's been a lot of discussion lately about what is being called 8th grade red-shirting; that is, players changing their graduation year on Tennis Recruiting Network to repeat the 8th grade. The reasons being bandied about for this re-classing range from trying to game the system to ducking competition and everything in between. I've had several in-person and email exchanges with parents asking me to look into it, so I reached out to Dallas Oliver at TRN and have had numerous email and More >
My Son Said the "F" Word9
Tennis is a game. Games are supposed to be fun. Ergo, tennis is supposed to be fun. However, as many of us Tennis Parents know, junior tournaments by their very nature can suck the fun right out of things. So, imagine my surprise and delight when my son said the "F" word in relation to a junior tennis event this past week!
We left very cold and very windy weather in Atlanta Thursday afternoon to travel to Naples, Florida for the ITA Coaches Convention Junior Showcase, a one-day event being More >
Summer 2013 Version: The Ins & Outs of TennisRecruiting.Net2
Below is a re-print of my June 13, 2012, article on TennisRecruiting.net. Twice a year, TennisRecruiting.net updates its Top Prospect ratings – sometimes known as "The Stars". The next update to the Top Prospects comes in September 2013. This week, TRN announced a change to their ratings process – starting with this rating period, ratings will be based on a player's second-highest rankings during the eight-week period from July 23 through September 11. Why is TRN making this change? More >
High School Tennis Revisited0
Last year, about this time, I was writing regularly about my son's experience on his high school tennis team – the good, the bad, and the ugly.
However, due to some ridiculous eligibility rule changes by the Georgia High School Association (GHSA), my son did not play for his school team this year. It was HIS choice, don't get me wrong, but, basically, our state governing body made it very unattractive for any high-level players to join their high school teams this year – to summarize, the More >
"If You Don't Like Us, Find A Way To Get Rid Of Us!"3
"If you don't like us, find a way to get rid of us!" That was Patrick McEnroe's response to a parent's question regarding the 2014 Junior Competition Changes at last summer's Girls 12 Nationals in Atlanta, and it was really the beginning of my extensive coverage of the new calendar that USTA was planning to implement beginning January 1, 2014.
Now that the calendar changes have been finalized and approved at the National Board level, I figured I should do a sort-of recap of the process More >
Approved Changes Still Need Board Okay8
The following is the official announcement I received just a few minutes ago from LetUsKnow.com. Given that I'm going on the air in less than 15 minutes, I haven't had a chance to read through everything yet. I welcome your comments below.

2014: What Are Our Options?84
There seems to be some (a lot!) confusion about USTA's governance procedure as it relates to the 2014 changes. After reading through the USTA by-laws in their entirety, I can tell you that I'm not any closer to understanding the intricacies of how this terribly complicated organization operates. I have asked some people who have been involved with USTA for way longer than I have to please explain to me what our options are moving forward. Here's what they have told me.

Quota Comparison Between 2012 & 201428
The link below is to an Excel spreadsheet comparing Boys 18 entries by section between the actual 2012 Winter Nationals tournament and what the numbers will look like if the proposed 2014 changes are approved. The numbers for SoCal and NorCal may be off by one or two as there was some confusion as to which of the two sections certain players were from. Please take some time to read and understand the differences and feel free to comment below.
Amended 2014 Changes – Just A Proposal At This Point35
Please refer to my post from earlier today to understand how the process will work going forward. In the meantime, here's the 28-page document outlining the changes to the 2014 Junior Competition Schedule as well as the shorter 5-page summary version along with the new proposed national schedule.

March 6th Official Statement from USTA6
Today is March 6th, the day USTA said we would hear something from the work done by the Junior Competition & Sportsmanship Committee last week in Dallas.

Fallout Online, the MMO being developed by the back-from-the-dead Interplay (the series' creator), started accepting open beta applications last month. The game was announced under the working title, Project V13, and all that's been released thus far is a smattering of early concept art, a brief FAQ, and the minisite where you can sign up for beta eligibility. Note that signing up does not guarantee beta inclusion, though it does add you to the game's newsletter list.
The site is very official-looking, but we're still unclear on the game's legal status. Bethesda purchased the rights to the Fallout franchise from Interplay in 2007, and made a deal allowing Interplay to develop the MMO. After the deal, however, Bethesda claimed that Interplay breached contract, and the two companies entered a legal dispute. Does the creation of the official website imply that a settlement has been reached?
We contacted Bethesda for a comment, but are still awaiting a response. Interplay has not made a statement either - Lead Systems Designer Chris Taylor commented in their forums last month, "We cannot discuss the lawsuit. Thank you for your understanding."
Chris Taylor is one of Fallout's original designers (not to be confused with the other Chris Taylor, who's known for Dungeon Siege). Also working on the project is Jason Anderson, a lead artist on the original. Interplay has also expressed an interest in getting Fallout's original composer, Mark Morgan, back for the game. We honored Morgan last week in a Fallout 2 edition of Game Music of the Day.
We'll update when we have more information on the game, its legal status, and the beta test. Until then, take a look at Interplay's FAQ for a rundown of the team's design philosophy.

Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (Ft. Macklemore) – Cowboy Boots Lyrics on Genius
One might think that Capitol Hill alludes to the famous Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. But Capitol Hill most likely actually refers to the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, Macklemore's home town. Capitol Hill has been the center of Seattle's music scene since the grunge scene in the 1990s.

But we do get this tidbit from Jepsen: "It's been a cool day today. I ran into RedFoo from LMFAO at the airport, and we've been writing a song together today. Over the phone." The mind, it spins over what sort of cellular concoction these two chart-topping forces are weaving together.
Carly then discussed her newfound fame, now that "Call Me Maybe" has been #1 in the US for the past two weeks. "Pretty much every day, there's a moment where I'm having to pinch myself and think, 'When did this happen to my life?'"
The 26-year-old British Columbia singer, who placed third on Canadian Idol in 2007, added, "What I really love about music is that, despite all this craziness the creative process remains the same. And that same exciting feeling that I had before anybody knew me, when I was just beginning to work on 'Call Me Maybe,' is the same feeling I had today with RedFoo from LMFAO. You can sense the people who really have it are about writing that right word or that right melody to make it lift and make you feel that perfect emotion."
Fingers crossed for some sort of "Call Me Sexy And I Know It…Maybe"-type hybrid jam. That would lift us to feeling some real emotions.


text: HomeTVDays of Our LivesWhy Hope Needs to Let Vargas Break Her Back on Days of Our Lives Jamey Giddens March 21, 2013 Days of Our Lives 21 Comments There may be no greater task in soapdom than existing as the remaining half of a mega popular supercouple. As a rule, fans have a hard time seeing characters that represent 50 percent of a beloved squish name moving on. What generally happens when one half of a famed pairing leaves the show, is their former screen partner is either left dwindling in the fictional winds, or paired off with someone else with little forethought (Remember Days of Our Lives' Kayla and Shane?) As the ultimate fan of DAYS' Bo (Peter Reckell) and Hope (Kristian Alfonso)—this used to be my cellphone ringtone—I've held out hope that TPTB would come to terms with Reckell, so that Beauregard could finally come downstairs from tucking Ciara in bed, or wherever he is, and reunite with his Fancy Face. Since that doesn't appear to be happening any time soon, I have come to the bittersweet realization that it's time for my fav-o-rite Salem, U.S.A. heroine to move on with her soap operatic life. It isn't fair to Alfonso to have Hope running around town, serving as everyone's nosy cousin/aunt. The actress is still much too sexy and viable for that. It's also a tad bit insulting to Bo and Hope's legend to always have him in the other room, or off visiting Shawn, Belle and Claire. Bo Brady needs a right and proper exit storyline. It's the only way Bope fans can move on with the days of our lives. On Wednesday's episode, I noticed quite the spark between Hope and ex-con Vargas (Sean Douglas). I know the villainous character is meant to serve as a tormentor for Hope's cousin Nick (Blake Berris), whom he shared a questionable relationship with in jail, but I think Vargas would smolder in a forbidden romance with Hope. A noble-yet-sultry cop seeing the good in an equally sexy, career criminal—who can't yet see it in himself—could be good television. Many a DAYS character started off vile, yet morphed into leading man material. Steve "Patch" Johnson (Stephen Nichols) was a dirtbag when he first arrived in Salem, U.S.A. Maybe Hope's good loving can do for Vargas what Kayla Brady's (Mary Beth Evans) "Sweetness" did for Patch? I know it's soap opera sacrilege to speak of Hope being penetrated by anyone else but Bo—despite the fact that Bo has hooked up with plenty of other brunettes over the decades—but when practically everyone else in Salem is having red-hot sex except for Hope, something is amiss. My girl needs some Vargas in her life. 21 Responses nysam March 21, 2013 Hope should not be with anyone unless Bo is killed off. Log in to Reply bonobochick March 21, 2013 I like Vargas, and especially shirtless in jeans like yesterday but I wouldn't want him with Hope. I've never been a big fan of Hope so that is part of it but I feel like being with her would change him and I like him as is from what I've seen. For some reason, I think it'll end up being Rafe/Hope and Eric/Nicole/Vargas. Log in to Reply tmac March 21, 2013 Did you forget about Hope's fling with Patrick several years ago? And she's had sex with John, so Bo isn't the only man she's ever had sex with. And seriously? The actor's name is Sean Douglas? As in Hope's son, Shawn Douglas? Log in to Reply Jamey Giddens March 21, 2013 Did you forget about Hope's fling with Patrick several years ago? And she's had sex with John, so Bo isn't the only man she's ever had sex with. *** I didn't say Bo was the only man she had sex with. I said it was soap opera sacrilege to speak about her being penetrated by other men. With both of those instances you mentioned, Bope fans went crazy about Hope having sex with other men. Log in to Reply RealityCheck 33 March 21, 2013 Vargas needs to hook back up with Nick. Log in to Reply zanefan March 21, 2013 Easy enough. Let's find out that Vargas has a saintly twin brother who comes to town to make amends for whatever misdeeds his brother committed. Then we could have Hope fall for him. Log in to Reply soapbaby March 21, 2013 Jamey: As a huge fan or Bo & Hope (my all-time favorite soap couple) I COMPLETELY agree with you! I noticed how good Hope & Vargas were together in their brief scenes. Peter Reckell is not coming back any time soon and I'm not happy about Kristian Alfonso being "Aunt Maggie"-ed! Now, my only reservation is that I REALLY, REALLY want Nick to have been Vargas' prison wife and Hope couldn't be with the man who bitched-out her cousin, right? Lol. Log in to Reply bishbay March 21, 2013 I really don't care how they do it as long as they keep Vargas around. He's really hot. A bit wooden, though, so I hope he loosens up. Log in to Reply SoapArmageddon March 21, 2013 I'm one of the biggest Bope fans there is, but I'm an even bigger HOPE fan. And I don't like seeing one of daytime's greatest romantic heroines being a talk-to. That Vargas guy is sex on a stick. I love how the show never misses an opportunity for him to take his shirt off. He smolders on the screen. I'm also guessing that it will turn out that he didn't rape Nick so he'll be sticking around for some time to come. He and Hope could be super hot! Vargas and Nicole would probably be even more hot. Log in to Reply geobear4 March 21, 2013 Vargas seems a little young for her, but I could get over that. Age is just a number, right? That said, I prefer zanefan's "Twin Brother" idea as opposed to having Hope fall for the creepy-but-good-looking ex-con. And definitely not unless Bo gets the "presumed dead" treatment. Log in to Reply Katiebug9624 March 21, 2013 This is why I love and hate supercouples it seems like they end up considered a pair and not characters outside of the coupling. Hope should be allowed to move on and so should Bo but they need to do something with Bo kill him off off screen if they have to we all know he can come back again. I think that's why originally I liked Carly/Bo so much in the 90s. Hope was dead course she came back. Log in to Reply angrierblackerman March 21, 2013 Well, there's probably no chance of Vargas sticking around, as I think he may have sexually assaulted Nick in prison. There's really little coming back from something like this. Let's just hope Vargas kills Daniel and Rafe before he heads back to Prison…which you know is coming since Gary Tomlin can't write. Log in to Reply Jamey Giddens March 21, 2013 Well, there's probably no chance of Vargas sticking around, as I think he may have sexually assaulted Nick in prison. There's really little coming back from something like this. *** Remember that dude who tried to get Nick's booty in jail on Young and the Restless? He had a big romance with Jill Abbott! Log in to Reply alstonboy4315 March 21, 2013 I have enjoyed Kristian Alfonso lately as Hope. Hope seems a lot sassier than usual, though I must admit I really haven't followed her that close over the years. I still prefer Kristian as a supporting actress, since I do still find her acting to be mediocre, for the most part. I say give Hope a new lover and let her move on with her life, but I have no desire to see her, Princess Gina, Princess Hope, Princess Pilar or Princess Lauren Etheridge, or any other of Hope's 12,000 alter egos invading Salem anytime soon. I will say that it appears that Kristian is having fun. Log in to Reply nysam March 21, 2013 @AngrierBlackman…."there's probably no chance of Vargas sticking around, as I think he may have sexually assaulted Nick in prison" This is DAYS….One of their most popular leading men raped a woman. Jack raped Kayla back in the day and went on to be one of the greatest couples along with Jennifer in DAYS history. At least Vargas' story could be written in such a way that he was in prison and there are no rules in prison. Since daytime likes to redeem rapists of women (OLTL's Todd, AW's Jake, DOOL's Jack) it would be interesting to see them redeem a guy who raped another guy. Log in to Reply mufasa March 21, 2013 No, no, no. no…..it is SO obvious – Rafe and Hope have chemistry! It would be perfect!!! Log in to Reply days4ever March 21, 2013 Have Bo presumed dead and put Hope with this sexy ex-con Vargas. They should have never killed off Jack though because he wanted to stay and could have been paired with Nicole, Hope, Kayla, or of course Jen. Hope and Kayla are both without the other half of their super couple. Right now the only couples to root for are (IMO) Will and Sonny, EJ and Sami, and maybe Brady and Kristen. I don't know anyone who wants Jen with Daniel. I would rather he get with Chloe. The only time I liked Jen was when she was with Jack. Log in to Reply mfarris70 March 21, 2013 Funny that the actor who plays Vargas is Sean Douglas while Hope's son is named Shawn Douglas. Log in to Reply Yoryla March 21, 2013 No. Vargas needs to meet WILL! Can you just imagine how hot a daddy-twink type of sex relationship would be? That would finally be compensation for the EJ/Will thing to not have evolved the way it should have! Besides, Vargas is likely not here to stay, so no point in pairing him with Hope. She needs a viable, long-term, slow burning new LOVE, not a one-night stand. Log in to Reply Margaret Thatcher March 21, 2013 Bo stayed behind in Oregon to fish. He never came home. Did he die? Was he abducted by aliens? No one ever mentioned him again. Talk about sloppy writing. His character needs to be dealt with. To leave him hanging is an affront to longtime viewers. Most importantly, it's disrespectful to Bo. Log in to Reply twb6yz March 22, 2013 Heck with breaking Hope's back, let him break mine first!

Six = One?Difficult to believe, it has been 6 months since I started my HRT journey.
Just as a bit of history, I started on a minimum dosage along with "Spiro" which is a Testosterone blocker.
In February the dosage was doubled with the understanding I still had a lot of "dosage" room to play with.
It's time to "play" again.
You regulars here at Crysti's Condo most likely recall I'm trying to get the Veteran's Administration to completely take care of my needs. The VA where I live will fill my presc
Initially, I went to the outside doc with two ideas. I knew initial consultation was costly but follow ups weren't. The drugs themselves were not an issue because both are inexpensive. OK, so far I'm living with this until my prescribing doc decides he is leaving his practice to another physician. Very quickly I'm thinking I will be starting all over again cost wise and not amused.
So-what's a transgender vet to do? Read advice from other trans vets. I happened along a post advising another vet to contact the closest center and try to find out who the "transgender specialist" is in the facility.
For a fact I know there wasn't one in my facility last fall. I started with four visits to an in house VA psychologist who approved my request for hormones but was clueless how I could get them there.
For once I took some advice and called the clinic today and asked for their "transgender specialist". I was pleasantly surprised to find out the "specialist" was now the very same person I saw before and could get an appointment next week.
I was equally impressed with the guy on the phone who suggested she refer me to a VA psychiatrist who could prescribe. To increase your confusion, my "primary physician" has no problem filling the "sc
It will be interesting to see how things have changed in the system. I was such a shock to their system-hopefully a positive one. I can say I was impressed with the no hesitation response I received today.
At the least, both of us are much more experienced this time around and I have a clear path of where I want to go.
I have totally loved the changes so far and want to double the dosage I am on which I understand is totally possible with no toxic results. (One of the benefits of having a physician which I totally recommend).
Stay tuned on this one. The process should heat up hotter than this summer very soon.
cyrsti 61-65, T 4 Responses 1 Jul 4, 2012
It never occurred to me to use the VA as a resource. Thanks for that information.

Brenda Karen
What changes have you noticed so far that make you so satisfied/happy?
I don't know what your current dosage is, but are you using tablets, gel, patches or injections? For us over 50s tablets should be off the menu with the other three much better for our liver.
My info came from my endocrinologist and as it his speciality, respect his judgement.
Isn't rather lovely when something goes really well and unexpectedly? Good luck with this. X
