On Saturday, Oct. 17, three-time LPGA Tour winner Emilee Klein was among the Class of 2009 for the Arizona State University (ASU) Sports Hall of Fame. Klein, who is the women's golf coach at San Diego State University, played for the Sun Devils from 1992-94, and helped lead the team to two national team titles and garnered her own NCAA Division I individual national championship in 1994. That same year, she was named Golfweek Magazine's Collegiate Player of the Year and earned a spot on the U.S. Curtis Cup team.
One year later, she earned 1995 LPGA Rookie of the Year honors to kick-off an 11-year Tour career, before stepping away to coach collegiately, first at the University of Central Florida and, as of July, San Diego State University.
Klein was the 14th women's golfer inducted into the ASU Sports Hall of Fame and was joined by Katie Freeland, gymnastics; Christine Garner, volleyball; Juan Roque, football; Cappi Siefarth, women's swimming; Mike Sodders, baseball; Morrison Warren, football; and the men's 4x800 relay team from 1984.

No more gac ??
On another forum I saw a comment that Disney was going to do away with their gac and turn to a universal style system where people get given a time to return. Now I don't use the gac as I use a scooter, but I wondered if this just another rumour which going about of if this is what Disney are planning.? Would have a huge effect for some families if it true.
They didn't say when this might take effect |

With the latest testing of magic band the dis got to do it and showed pics of a hand held device that can scan your magic band. That they use at restaurant so to can pay with your band at the table. And at locations that are not attractions like illuminations and parades they can scan and see if you have a fast pass plus reservation. Now each attraction will have a computer with a screen that they could see you have a gac and be able to treat it just like if you had a card. Or they could give each one the hand held device that programmed to tell what the need is and be better able to help you. Their so much they can do now the have a hand held device lost kids now can get scanned and they can get info to can have allergy info on it and at the restaurant they could scan it and see so the chef knows before hand and comes out to talk to you a little but more prepared.
Their so much they can do with the new system that we have to wait and see. So right now as I said before the rest is just rumors only high level dissent execs know anything they are kinda afraid to announce anything just yet. Because they take their Responsibilty to guest with disabilities very seriously and don't want to make it harder for guest with disabilities and plus they have a great image they do t want to hurt either. So that why they have not come out and said anything they want to get it right so I honk we all owe them some respect and wait for them to he ready. And not start speculating on what the changes will be and start getting upset. We have to wait and see Disney won't do something so drastic you won't be able to enjoy your trip. They want you to have fun and be able to do things just like everyone else they just have to fix the system so people who don't need it don't get one and guest who do can still get one and enjoy their time.

There are very many rumors about GACs at WDW and Disneyland, but no actual news.
Rumors tend to pop up every 6 months to a year anyway, but have been more recent because of news about RFID cards, Magicbands and problems with GACs. We are asking people to NOT start new threads asking if there is any news. When there is something to report, a Moderator will add the information. If posters have any news, we are asking them to send one of disABILITIES Board Moderators a message and we will post it in a single place. This will keep all the news together and separate from rumors. Post 6 of the disABILITIES FAQs thread will also be updated as there are changes to report. Since the information on post 6 is quite general, basic, and based the ADA, it my not actually change much. You can find the disABILITIES FAQs thread near the top of this board or follo the link in my signature. Neither of the Moderators on this board work for or peak for Disney, but we do have ways to get information from CMs that isaccurate. Here are the things we do know: 1) GAC (Guest Assistance Cards) are not going away, but the program is being revised. 2) The target date for rolling out the changed program was reportedly August 1, but as been pushed further into the future - some sources now say October 2013. 3) One of the changes coming up a lot in rumors is giving some sort of a return ticket, based on the current wait time at the attraction. A similar system is currently in use at Universal. If the current wait is short (less than 30 minutes) guests with disabilities may be brought into the attraction through the Express Pass line (this is Universal's version of Fastpass). If the current wait is longer at Universal, a return pass ticket is given for a time similar to the wait time. (This is how Universal is reportedly working at the time of this writing) 4) Although many posters have not ever received a 'return time ticket' at Disney World or Disneyland, they have been an option. They are currently in use at some attractions at Disneyland, particularly in The Cars area. My family has personally gotten a return time ticket at WDW on several attractions, so they are not new. This is one of the rumors that is most likely to be part of the revised GAC program. 5) Although RFID enabled GACs or GAC information encoded onto passes or Magicbands is possible at some time in the future, it is not likely to happen soon. The RFID/Fastpass Plus program is in the testing phases at this time (early August 2013) and is not ready for full roll out at WDW. Fastpass Plus and RFID cards/Magicbands have not begun testing at Disneyland yet. 6) Disney does not have anything official published currently about GACs, either in print or on their website. The only information about GACs present on the Disney website has been on the Disney Mom's panel. The information there was often incorrect and the disclaimer on the page indicates that Disney takes no responsibility for correctness or completeness of the answers.

This is a nice scrub and does get rid of chapped lips, but for $10 i dont think it's worth it but I will probably repurchase.
One little pot can last over six months, and it's so yummy!! This is one of my top five favorite Lush products. Really great for dry lips.
I know I could make my own lip scrub if I were feeling industrious, but I love the Mint Julips one from LUSH. It tastes fantastic - sweet minty chocolate. It comes in a cute little glass jar and doesn't get sticky or gross as I use it. I don't tend to ingest it when I use it, but I like that I could if I wanted to. It's coarse enough to do the job but not too rough on the lips. The price is decent when compared to other lip scrubs. I have not found one that I like more, including the more expensive ones I have tried. I have repurchased it and will probably continue to do so. The first one I bought lasted me a good six months, though I do not use it every day.
I recently purchased this lip scrub and have enjoyed using it. It is a cute little pot but not the most effective, I hate having to dig out the perfect amount and often use to much. I do enjoy that it leaves nice moisture on your lips, but not so much that it effects your lipstick application (as some chapsticks will). I also struggle with my pours around my lips getting clogged, because I wear so much lipstick and this really helps with that. I will use it twice a day if wearing a dark color. Unfortunately when I went to buy this product I was looking for the Sweet Lips, which they didn't have. I am not as fond of the Mint Julip texture, as it is more fine. Also the taste to for me is rather disgusting. So when saying I would repurchase, I would but probably try a different flavor. Luckily if you go to lush, they will happily let you try anything on, so you can choose for yourself!
I LOVE this! My lips were always dry and chapped but this buffed them to beauty! I think it's a little pricey for what it is though.
I always have chapped lips. I've tried using a dry soft toothbrush, and it just worked okay. $9.95 for a lip scrub IS silly. I decided to treat myself because of all the raves, so I gave in and forked out the cash. It will last a long time, even with nightly use. Its key to not have wet hands, it'll make the sugar hard and clump. I really this product. Its a mint chocolate flavor, which is alright- better than no flavor I suppose. Would not repurchase based on price, and also I think this one container will last!
I didn't like this the product it is messy and sticky, I suffer from dry lips anyway and this just made it a lot worse. It didn't really take the flakey bits of my lips it just plain made my lips massively dry. I won't be repurchasing this
I read that for some people this didn't seem to work, but for me, it's been amazing for my lips! I hate when I apply lipstick or even some types of gloss and you can see that my lips are uneven due to flakiness, but this scrubs them right away! I chose Mint Julep because I liked this scent best.
I agree it's priced a bit high, and IMO the packaging is a bit difficult to get the product out at the end, so I didn't give it 5 lippies. However, I'm happy with it and am going to pick up another one or two to keep in reserve.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love this stuff. My favorite flavor out of the bunch. I'm not gonna front, you do get better exfoliation from a warm wet washcloth but its so much more fun using lush lip scrubs. Mint Julips smells so delicious and it taste even better even though I was one of those folks that thought it would be gross to lick it off lol. I would suggest using this daily as a maintenance product but don't depend on it for anything heavy duty. Totally unecessary but it does lift your spirits when you use it :)

Thursday, April 01
American Airlines Center
Attendance: 19,965
Dallas, TX (Sports Network) - Mickael Pietrus was a perfect 6-of-6 from beyond the arc en route to 24 points off the bench, as the Orlando Magic held off the Dallas Mavericks, 97-82.
Dwight Howard added 17 points and 20 rebounds for the Southeast Division- leading Magic, who have won three in a row and 14 of 16 overall. Orlando sits second in the Eastern Conference, six games back of idle Cleveland.
Vince Carter had 17 of his 19 points in the second half, while Jameer Nelson donated 14 points and seven assists for Orlando, which is 4 1/2 games ahead of Atlanta in the division.
"I thought in the first half we took some very difficult shots, and then I thought on times on drives in the second half," Orlando head coach Stan Van Gundy said. "I don't mind when we're going to the rim strong on big guy. I don't like it when we are shooting runners over seven footers, I think that's a bad shot. I thought in the first half we took too many shots with no passes. I thought our ball movement was better in the second half. We played more drive and kick and I think that's why our percentage went up as much as it did."
Dirk Nowitzki ended with 24 points and six rebounds for the Southwest Division-leading Mavericks, who had a three-game winning streak snapped. Dallas is tied with Utah for second in the Western Conference, 4 1/2 games back of the first-place Lakers.
Jason Terry and J.J. Barea had 16 points apiece off the bench for the Mavericks, who hold a four-game edge over the Spurs in the division.
"We've got to continue to work to get better," Dallas head coach Rick Carlisle said. "Look, we want the best seed possible. We are trying to get to number two, or number one, if something happened and the Lakers completely fell off the face of the earth. But playing your best at the right time is the real critical thing."
Ahead 54-46 midway through the third, Orlando put together a 14-4 run to create some breathing room. Carter and Nelson each tallied five points during the stretch, which Brandon Bass capped with a free throw for a 68-50 advantage with two minutes to go. The score was 72-56 heading to the fourth.
The Mavericks stayed close in the fourth and got within nine, 91-82, on Barea's reverse layup with 1:14 to play.
Pietrus sealed the victory for Orlando by making a pair of three-pointers around Jason Kidd's missed trey.
The Magic were in front 18-16 following a tight first quarter and led throughout the second, holding a 43-36 edge at the half.

Does Oxycontin And Oxycodone Show Up The Same N A Drug Urine Test
(Newest posts first)
Renee Says:
When taking a urine drug test, does oxycontin and oxycodone come up as the same drug? I took a 40mg oxycontin on a monday and was drug tested on thurs. I am tested once a month from my pain mangement dr. to make sure my oxycodone's are in my system. So will the 2 drugs show up as one or is there a differance in them with the drug test?

America, if you crush up the pill there will only be a trace of it. It has to be metabolized into your body sorry.
jayden Says:via mobile
Renee how did your test turn out I have same issue . Was yours sent to a lab? I know there the same but I'm worried they hv 1 different chemical than the other mine always goes to the lab
Robert Says:
is there a difference on a UDS from oxycodone and oxycontin, i am an CRITICAL CARE REG. NURSE and I am very aware of the difference of the 2 meds but as far as laboratory goes will it come back with different properties and be declared as a "dirty urine" the oxycontin was mine but from awhile ago,not from this physician. Thank-you for your reply "R"

REALITY CHECK INDEED AND IT WASNT EVEN MY NONSENSE BEAT AROUND THE BUSH..SUGAR COATED QUESTION LMBO!! GREAT JOB
Fred Says:
Don't punish all because of some people being a addict or overdosing. That is life. Things happen.
Lily Says:
HI, REDGRACE! In regard to getting just a one month prescription from your doc for the Oxycontin--when taking Oxycontin, you need a new WRITTEN prescription every month from your doctor. The doctor cannot put refills on it nor can it be phoned in; again, it must be written each month. As for the results of your test, it's perfectly OK to call your doctor's office to ask for them. You could also make an appointment to discuss the results if it's financially feasible for you. If your medication isn't showing up on your drug test, it makes the doctor wonder if you're selling it. The even bigger problem, of course, is that your husband is "stealing" medication for HIS pain even though he knows you need it for YOUR pain. I'm not "condemning" him--I know what it's like to be desperately trying to live and work every day with pain that isn't well-controlled--but this is still not the way to deal with it. It sounds like he may need to find a new doctor. The doctor's suggestion that your husband should just find a new job (as though that's easy and no big deal) shows insensitivity and ignorance. What his doctor SHOULD be doing is addressing the issue of adequately treating your husband's pain so he can do his current job, which the doctor is apparently not doing. That's negligence on the doc's part. With regard to the fact that your husband is stealing your pain medication--I assume he realizes that his theft of your medication is causing problems for you with your own doctor and perhaps with the drug testing being done on you, plus presumably leaving you in pain. Yet he continues to steal your meds. Again, I'm not condemning him; we'll just assume that the degree of pain he's experiencing pushes him to do this. I would suggest that you purchase a small safe with a combination lock (not a key) and keep ALL your medication in it. Don't leave even one pill somewhere else--in your purse, a pocket, a cabinet or whatever. I had this same issue with a friend who I realized was periodically "sneaking" pain meds from me in small amounts when she visited; I ended up using a safe like this in which to keep my pills. You have to be absolutely strict about keeping your meds locked up; open the safe, take out the pill(s) you need and lock the safe again before you even take the pill. (In other words, don't forget to lock it!) Then immediately take whatever medication you took from the safe. This plan would make it impossible to allow any pills to be taken from your supply. If you follow this plan, no excuses, it will be impossible for your husband to get any of your meds. If he can break into a locked combination safe, he's a better safecracker than many professional bank robbers!:-) All the best to both of you!
redgrace Says:
What if you came clean on your drug screen for everything but supposed to show positive for oxycontin er? The doctor sent urine to a lab, will the lab just test for my prescription in question? Or do they test the sample for everything all over again at a higher rate? Asking because I made a stupid mistake and tried methamphetamine for the first time ever and did less that .5 over a 3 day course (3 days butwasnt continuously used, still ate, drank fluids, slept, etc) My UA at doctors came up clean (it had been almost 7days since use) and showed my other prescriptions but not my 20mg oxycontin BC I had run out early do to spousal theft. I didn't want to tell doctor BC my husband is on pain mng program too and just has no self control and runs out and then takes mine without asking(I've tried hiding and locking up and somehow he always finds it or gets ahold of my keys when asleep) but again doctor sent urine to lab BC it showed negative. Its been 2 weeks and haven't heard anything but he didn't give me full months of scripts just one month until results came back. Am I to assume something is wrong since they haven't called me? Or maybe they're waiting til end of month to UA again to see if I am negative again? I dunno. Any advice would be helpful, especially from anyone who has experienced similar and didn't get the boot from doctor. Any advice about the spousal issue to, nice realistic comments only please. He isn't addict, doctor just won't change his medicine and he works 60+ hours a week with his hands(5prior surgeries/can't find another job that pays same so he deals with pain/doc said find another job/don't k ow what to do really at any front geese!)
redgrace Says:via mobile
Her post is in regard to a post on page1out of these 4 pages of posts (i believe), so it is relevant to another persons question/statement made earlier, just very different than a majority of all the other posts lol
kttssteel Says:
If your not taking the meds. then why are you going to get them as if I have to ask.
Lily Says:
Just teasing, John--that's why I put a smile at the end of my comment!:-) I take Oxycontin daily for severe pain that I've had for 21 years and my insurance company requires that my doctor periodically do a "surprise" drug test to see if it's in my system (I guess to make sure I'm taking it and not selling it!) So far, it's always shown up. Maybe it didn't show up because you only took one and it was out of your system by the time you took the test? I'm not sure--hopefully someone else out there who only takes it occasionally and whose dose is low would know about this and could answer your question. Here's hoping!:-)
john Says:via mobile
Well if you knew that was a misprint then you wouldn't have answered that way. Yes OXYCONTIN did not show up on an 8 panel or 10 panel urine test. Does anybody know why or should I be worried about taking a drug screen for a new job?
Lily Says:
Well, John, "oxycotin" wouldn't show up in your system because there is no such medication. Now if you were looking for OxycoNtin...!:-)
john Says:via mobile
My wife works at a st.joes clinic and brought home an 8 panel and 10 panel drug test and I take 40 mg a day. I had just taken an oxycotin earlier that day why didn't it show up on the test?
Sid Says:via mobile
Everyones system gets rid of drugs at different rates due to a myriad of factors, such as Metabolism, hydration, liver function, kidney, thyroid functions. One would have to be over-using at a high rate, over a long time to be able to tell. Urine is a waste-product. The only way to tell current level of intoxication is through a blood-test.

my friend had a MINUTE amount of cocaine come up 2x in a row. She doesnt do cocaine and her Dr. said it was odd becuz it was the same exact amount both times. She said it wasnt even a lines worth on the test! She had he nurse go on the computer and found out that amoxacillin will give a false positive for cocaine. She had done amoxacillin prior to both tests!

Do they tell u if they are measuring the levels in your blood . My doc jyst does urine test.

Hi Spyz! Your doc is lying to you! You are not even close to being "maxed out" by any means. I take four 60 mg. Oxycontin per day plus up to eight 8 mg. Dilaudid (another opioid). (Oxycontin actually comes in an 80 mg. strength also so not sure how you could be maxed out on 2 - 40 mg. Oxys!) I used to take six 40 mg. Oxycontin (which is extended or gradual release oxycodone) per day plus eight 10 mg. oxycodone (immediate release). The only reason my doc switched me to 60's rather than 40's is because my insurance decided it would only pay for 4 Oxycontin PILLS per day. That could be four 10 mg. Oxys or four 80 mg. Oxys so even though I'm on the same total amount per day (240 mg), I'm forced to take more or fewer mg. per dose than with the 40's simply because it's cheaper for the insurance company this way. Insurance companies care about cost; they don't give a hoot about good medicine or what works best for the patient. What you describe is a typical problem for chronic pain patients--if they say their pain medication dose needs to be higher because it isn't working at the dose prescribed, they're immediately labeled as "drug seekers." Doctors forget that low doses work for some people while even much higher doses may not work for others. My daughter has had to take pain medication on various occasions (broken bones, etc.) and didn't even fill the prescription for Vicodin prescribed in the emergency room because that particular pain med doesn't work for her. When she told them Percocet did work for her, she was told that they "didn't prescribe that" in the ER. She had to wait until she saw an orthopedic specialist a week later who was furious that the ER hadn't given her adequate pain meds (she'd been trying to get by on Ibuprofen) because it kept her from doing the movements necessary to help healing. Once she had the pain medication that worked for HER, healing went much faster and smoother. Six years ago, I was taking a lower dose of Oxycontin which wasn't enough; I was still in significant pain most of the time. I was used to my terrible doctor in Massachusetts who accused me of drug seeking when I told her I hadn't slept more than 2-3 hours our of 24 for the previous 4 months and was falling apart due to lack of sleep (lack of sleep significantly increases my pain) and BEGGED her for help. In spite of bringing my husband to appointments with me as a "witness", she never did anything to help me--which is now considered malpractice in most, if not all, states. My present doctor (in Michigan) didn't respond that way when I told him I was still in significant pain. His response? "It sounds like you need more pain medication." I nearly fell over! He upped my pain meds and worked very hard with me to find a medication set-up that would make sure I'd sleep. I've been with this doc for nearly 6 years now and, for the most part, I sleep quite well and my pain level is tolerable. What's more, since we found what the WORKING doses of pain medication and sleep medication were FOR ME, I haven't needed an increase in the strength or amount of these meds for almost 5 years. Your doc's attitude that it's better for you to suffer than to (God forbid!) need an increase in your dosage at some point is bad medicine. Again, failing to adequately treat a patient's pain and leaving them suffering is a malpractice issue in many. if not all, states. Check it out! :-) No one should be condemned to a life of pain just because their doctor is cowardly and misinformed.

Those urine test sometimes will produce a false positive reading they need to wait 10 minutes for the results not 2 minutes had it happen to me. Also if ya really belive he didn't use cocaine go to your primary dr & get retested or draw blood & see if the result is different ?
Spyz Says:
Cynthia, wisegirl Is at the rite site its just that it was not a recent post. Also, i have a new pain doc who said he was scared to take me because im on 2 20mg oxycontin plus 4 30mg oxycodone per day. He said im maxed out and he wont know what to do in the future. He said he is worried about my compliance since i told him up front that 6 work better for me. I have neve taken 4 per day and yes, it is possible to get 0 pain but not at the levels they prescribe. I can take 10 a day and no, its not to get high but to be more active. My body metabolizes it quick like lightening and ive never even had the luxury of 'getting high' i simp,y have high tolerance to everything. I u derstand that they are afraid of DEA BUT they need to understand that we are afraid of not having a life. Why should we get dismissed? Cant we agree to disagree with each others methods? Does a diabetic get dismissed if he eats a candy bar and needs an extra shot of insulin?

Author information
Summer Land is 24 year old 'average American girl' who shares her story from babyhood through to backpacking as a uni student, before falling in love and moving to Mudgee, Australia. But Summer is really anything but average; she's a self-professed attention-hungry discretion-free egomaniac who seeks out every joke she can be the butt of and holds nothing back in recounting them here in a collection of outrageous stories that are nothing short of shocking.
Customer reviews
By Leah Mandeltort 28 Mar 2014
Dear Summer Land,
This is by far one of the most entertaining reads I have ever read! It's unfiltered, crass and full of farts and poops. Its uncensored, shameless, inspirational, candid and a fabulous read!
I recommend this to absolutely anyone and everyone!
Cannot wait to read your follow up.
From your newest fan x
By Emily 27 Nov 2013
Summerlandish is the best book I've read all year, and I'll tell you why. It's real, filter-free, hilarious, and so unbelievably relatable, that you'll kind of feel like she's your best friend. It's clear that Summer is just one of those people who has amazing things happen to her all the time. And since she just happens to also be an author, we all win. If you're traveling at all this holiday season, this book should be by your side. It's the perfect way to keep your spirits up in long lines and busy airports. If you're not traveling at all, but are just looking for an intimate stand up comedy show that you don't have to put make up on for, here's your book.
I rate this book a 5 because it won't let me go any higher.
By Erica 23 Nov 2013
A fantastically funny read!
By Nelly 23 Nov 2013
Because of your book I don't mind saying that and owning it! Lol
I love the charisma Summer writes with, her vivid details and fantastic punch lines.
I can't wait for her next book, my only advice for improvement is: PLEASE MAKE BOOK 2 LONGER!! I finished book 1 too fast and now I'm sad
By Paul Jongsma 23 Nov 2013
It was a very entertaining read and I'm not just saying that because she's my wife.


text: I will admit that I was rather disconcerted by the fact that Watson had moved out. However, at the end of last season, she said she was going to, so we were forewarned. And the addition of Kitty, to me, is a positive thing. I like her and I think that it's wrong to be so against the addition of this character. As this season has progressed, we've seen Holmes and Watson continue to work closely together. We've also seen Kitty be of great assistance and come up with some excellent deductions of her own. As for the focus on Watson's personal life, it seems to me that that is a natural extension of the relationship between Holmes and Watson. She did, after all, live with him as his sober companion, which would have meant that they would have, by necessity, developed a very intense relationship. Added to that is the fact that she also became, and continues to be, involved in his work, and became his "apprentice"; their closeness then becomes quite understandable, both personally and professionally. And they've both grown and changed through this process. I binge-watched most of season 2, and all of Season 3 that has thus far been broadcast, very recently, and so I'm able to see this change in a different light, as I watched so many episodes in succession. I truly enjoy this show. I hope it continues on for many years to come. Sherlock, most especially, never, ever, bores me.

Bann's lunch box, at $12.00 is pretty good. Especially the braised beef ribs. The attractive tray includes a very good dmpling soup, a small selection of pickles and kimchee, salad, rice and the main course. The cooking is competent, not spectacular. The ala carte section of the menu,however, is overpriced. And beware of accepting the offer of tea - it's $3.00 per person, not free as in every other Korean place. (They even charge for the pickled vegetable!) The service is somewhat incompetent, but that's because they can't hold on to servers for any length of time. As for atmosphere, it's a pretty room, but way too big, empty and cold-feeling. If you want to go, go soon - I can't see how they stay in business. The place is huge, and almost always empty.

I ate dinner here with a group of people and everyone was impressed by the quality and presentation of the food. From tuna tartar served in a boat made of ice to another appetizer that came out with fire, just looking at the various dishes was a show of its own. Everything we ordered was fantasitic and full of unique flavors. The service was excellent and the entire staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. I wish I had a bigger stomach so I could have tried everything on the menu! I'm definitely rushing back for another meal.

We have been to Bann several times and the food was alway excellent. The dungeness crab and the baked scallops are amazing as appetizers. The black cod entre is the best dish we had in a restaurant. The bar-b-que, especially the fillet is also magnificent. We highly recommend it.
Posted by AltecLansing on 02/24/2006
My girlfriend and I had been looking forward to Bann's opening, as we were searching for a good Korean restaurant in the neighborhood. We went there when it first opened. It had a great atmosphere, and the wait staff was hospitable. But, the food there was expensive and of average quality. I understand the restaurant wants to attract a non-Korean crowd and perhaps has tried to adapt traditional Korean recipes to the Western taste. But to my native Korean taste, the food was nothing special. To be fair, their dessert menu was creative and tasty.
Posted by Anonymous on 02/16/2006
Beautiful decore, excellent service, good food. It is a perfect place for 1st date, birthdays, etc. But if you just want to have some good Korean food with old friends, go to Korean Town, that will save tons of $$$$
Posted by Anonymous on 02/11/2006
A few of my co-workers decided to go to Bann because it is convenient to our office. We weren't expecting anything great, particularly because it was fairly empty at lunch time. When we walked in, we were impressed with the atmosphere. Very modern and clean. We were also quite surprised at how amazing the food was. The service was also really attentive. We shared a series of appetizers that were all really delicious. We also did the barbeque, sharing fish, meat and vegetables. We were all really impressed. This place is hidden in the courtyard of world wide plaza so it is easy to miss. We all really enjoyed our meal. No one was disappointed. I highly recommend it.

Woo Lae Oak has been my favorite restaurant for years and the managers there told me about their new location in Midtown. I was reluctant to leave the downtown scene but I finally went to Bann and let me just say it was great. The decor is elegant and chic and the menu, with some of my favorites from the SoHo location, is more refined and adventurous. They really know what they're doing at this new restaurant. Service was great and I think I will be venturing back to Midtown to eat here more often. All in all, I think it's better than Woo Lae Oak.

- Description: Photography lets your imagination come to life and getting my first camera at age ten...opened up pandoras box for me. My darkroom however, is what made me really fall in love with photography. I had no idea at the age of ten, that my fate was sealed. Loving what you do is a dream for so many and I absolutely love what I do. I travel the world shooting what I want and also teach photography and Photoshop. Not many people can say that they really love what they do...so I guess I am one of the lucky few. I have heard it said....that "Art is not something you choose to do...It chooses you". Well, I am glad that it chose me.

So I have an idea but I wanted to ask your guys opinions. I want to pasturize in a 5 gallon bucket. I checked and the ones made from hdpe can withstand constant temps of up to 230 f. So I don't see why it could be an issue to pasteurize in one. Simply get 175° water and fill partially then put bottles in and close up the lid. I will use an airlock for pressure to escape. Even if the plastic leached which it shouldn't at that temp the bottles are sealed. So no harm done and if I have a bottle bomb no issue either because it will be contained. Thoughts?
175F water + a number of bottles at 70F will not equalize at 175F. Your water will cool down. MC
Well what temp should I start at then. I was hoping to shoot for 165 -170. Maybe closer to 200?
If you start with 190deg. water and add 6 bottles temp should center around 145deg.
Mark F in Central CT Amateur Cider Maker
A rough estimate would be: Weight of one bottle: we'll say 16 oz to make it simple. Temperature of bottle: 70F Thermal mass of bottle is 16oz x 70F = 1120 F-oz. Mass of 1 pint of water = 16.64 oz (weight) Temperature of water: 212F Thermal mass of water is 16.64oz x 212F = 3527 F-oz. 3527 + 1120 = 4647 F-oz 4647 / 32.24oz weight = 144F So putting one 12oz bottle of cider at room temperature into 1 gallon of boiling water should stabilize somewhere around 144F. Lots of water, and lots of heat. [The above doesn't take into account inefficiencies, and whatever other factors] MC
Can you do this all with the caps on the bottles? I would assume so, but I'm just making sure for future reference.
A mangiar questa minestra o saltar questa fincestra.
That's what u do. Cap to hold the CO2 the heat to kill the yeast. I do 6 bottles at a time in a spaghetti pot.

Dawn Marie
(Former Wrestler -
In her youth, Dawn Marie was a fan of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). She was raised to be a tomboy. Her father was a zookeeper. Growing up, Dawn admired Bob Backlund and Roddy Piper as well as his Pipers Pit.
At the age of 23, Dawn Marie found herself out of NYU business school and into a real estate consulting firm in Manhattan, New York. Dawn was working as the Director of International Real Estate before deciding to move into the entertainment industry with the goal of being either a model or actress.
Later, during an autograph signing for an independent promotion in Florida Dawn met a wrestling talent agent. He had asked her if she wanted to get into the business. Shortly after, she received a phone call telling her she was booked on a show in New Jersey. She reluctantly went, managing Tony Atlas that night in a match against Jimmy Snuka. She stopped modeling and acting and started to learn all about the wrestling industry with the help of Snuka (who became like a second father to her) while she was traveling the Indy circuit. She made her debut in January 1995.
Four years later, after valeting for various promotions, Dawn heard that Mark Lamonica (better known as Bubba Ray Dudley) from Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) had an interest in her and invited her to try out for the company. Dawn left for Philadelphia where ECW promoter Paul Heyman paired her with Lance Storm. In her first night with ECW, Dawn lost her dress and was left in the ring in her underwear. Dawn was only billed to be with ECW for one night but Paul Heyman loved her chemistry with Lance Storm so much that she was offered a developmental contract. She was then immediately added to Lance Storms current storyline.
Dawn was soon put into a high profile storyline involving Chris Candidos manager Tammy Lynn Sytch. Her alliance with Lance Storm put over Storms storyline that had him feuding with Candido. During this time, Dawn was dubbed Dawn Marie Bytch, to spite Candido and his manager. Dawn worked with Lance through his solo career in ECW as well as with Lance and Justin Credible as part of the Impact Players faction. The trio had a high profile run until Lance left for World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in May of 2000. Dawn was offered a contract by WCW as well, but she declined in order to stay with her fiancè in ECW.
Dawn also was involved in various cat fights while in ECW and did some color commentary before working with her real life fiancè Pat Kenney (better known under his ring name Simon Diamond) in late 2000 and early 2001, until ECW closed down. During her ECW tenure, she also worked with Justin Credible, Raven and Shane Douglas.
After ECWs demise, Dawn decided to return to the independent promotions and worked in various promotions with Pat until she was contacted by the WWE. Dawn made her wrestling debut for the WWE on 13th April at a live event, on May 30, 2002, Dawn made her WWE television debut on SmackDown! as Vince McMahons legal assistant, Dawn Marie Renaldi.
Dawns first PPV match was at No Mercy in which she lost to Torrie Wilson.
In her next angle, Dawn was in a relationship Torries father Al Wilson. Torrie shared a lesbian kiss with Dawn at a hotel to avoid her marrying him. Despite this, Dawn and Al Wilson married anyway. As part of the storyline, Al Wilson died during their honeymoon. Outside of kayfabe, Dawn was called Mom by Torrie.
After being on hiatus from SmackDown! programming, Dawn began a feud with Miss Jackie, bragging that her and Jackies fiance Charlie Haas had an affair. This angle lead up to a match between the two at WWE Armageddon 2004, with Haas as the guest referee. Dawn won the match but afterward, Haas confirmed their affair and broke off both relationships.
On April 15, 2003, in Norfolk, Virginia Dawn Marie along with Rhyno, Rey Mysterio and Sable, visited the USS Vella Gulf, a guided missile cruiser. The WWE superstars expressed their gratitude to the Navy for their efforts during the Iraq War. Dawn Marie also gave an emotional speech to the soldiers about how she knows what its like for their families at home since Dawn has a brother in the military.
During the WWEs tour of Iraq, Dawn spent the night in one of Saddam Husseins palaces. The palace was gutted and slept on a cot as did the other WWE Superstars.

steam engine
steam engine
Machine that uses steam power to perform mechanical work through the agency of heat (hence a prime mover). In a steam engine, hot steam, usually supplied by a boiler, expands under pressure, and part of the heat energy is converted into work. The rest of the heat may be allowed to escape, or, for maximum engine efficiency, the steam may be condensed in a separate apparatus, a condenser, at comparatively low temperature and pressure. For high efficiency, the steam must decrease substantially in temperature as it expands within the engine. The most efficient performance (i.e., the greatest output of work in relation to the heat supplied) is obtained by using a low condenser temperature and a high boiler pressure. See also Thomas Newcomen, James Watt.

Memory Support (Acetyl-L-Carnitine+R Alpha Lipoic Acid) 60V's
Full label text available here.
Acetyl-L-carnitine and alpha-lipoic acid are each impressive supplements in their own right; however, research is showing that in combining these two supplements, the deterioration associated with aging can be subdued or even reversed.
In 2002, the University of California, Berkeley; and Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute teamed up to do research on Acetyl-L-carnitine combined with alpha-lipoic acid. In their study, rats were fed a combination of these two supplements for over a month, which resulted in them having a better memory and more energy. Amazingly, their brain chemistry actually improved. Dr. Bruce N. Ames of UC Berkeley noted that all the characteristics they looked at seemed more like a younger animal after supplementation. UC Berkeley was so impressed with the findings that they patented the combo for cell rejuvenation. The researchers founded a company to further their research and, at the time of the publication, were engaged in human clinical trials.
Healthy mitochondria are vital for healthy aging, and this combo is built to make them last. In normal aging, free radicals accumulate instead of being destroyed by the mitochondria. With the Acetyl-L-carnitine and alpha-lipoic acid combo, alpha-lipoic acid triggers the mitochondria to destroy free radicals and the acetyl-L-carnitine boosts the activity of carnitine acetyltransferase, an enzyme largely responsible for burning fuel in the mitochondria. As Dr. Ames said, "Each chemical solves a different problem - the two together are better than either one alone."(1)
Ames went on to say that the dramatic effects on the rats would be similar to a senior citizen behaving like someone in their fifties. A different study found that even young animals treated with the combo had better intact morphology than untreated young animals.
Researchers began to look more closely at the affects of supplementation on memory function. Both spatial and temporal memory improved, and oxidative damage to the hippocampus of the brain decreased. It has been said that the Acetyl-L-carnitine/alpha-lipoic acid combo may also protect from neurodegeneration or cognitive impairment. This combination also shows great potential for neurological repair in diseases such as: age related dementia; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which is better known as Lou Gehrig's disease; Alzheimer's disease (AD); and Multiple sclerosis (MS), which is also known as "disseminated sclerosis" or "encephalomyelitis disseminata."
In short, if you are looking for more energy and a healthy brain, try Life Choice™ Memory Support!
Helps to support short and long term memory. Helps to support short and long term memory loss. Helps to reduce the biomarkers of oxidative brain damage. May help reverse age-associated mitochondrial structural decay. Helps normal growth and development, in tissue formation. May play a role in the treatment of lead poisoning.

School leavers with NCEA Level 2 or above
What We Have Found
Seventy-four percent of school leavers achieved NCEA Level 2 or above in 2013.
Updated: July 2014
Indicator Description
Percentage of school leavers with an NCEA Level 2 qualification or above.
Why This Is Important
A formal school qualification is a measure of the extent to which young adults have completed a basic prerequisite for higher education and training and many entry-level jobs. The main qualification available to secondary school students is the NCEA, which encompasses a wide range of learning. NCEA enables students to undertake multilevel study to attain credits, perhaps at different levels in any one year, towards an NCEA qualification. Students can attain credits through internal and external assessment, and they can accumulate these credits both within and across years. Future educational and job prospects will be limited for those who leave school without Level 2 NCEA.
The attainment of an upper secondary school qualification is linked to labour force status and incomes. In 2011, New Zealanders with no qualifications had an unemployment rate 48% higher than those whose highest qualification was a school qualification (OECD, 2013).
How We Are Going
In 2013, 74.2% of all school leavers attained at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent. This is similar to that in 2012 (74.3%). Since 2009, there has been a 6.9 percentage point increase with respect to those who attain at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent, with 74.2% in 2013 compared to 67.3% in 2009.
In 2013, for the first time, students were required to obtain 10 literacy and 10 numeracy credits at level 1 to achieve a NCEA level 2 qualification. Investigation shows that an additional 0.4 percent of school leavers in 2013 would have achieved NCEA level 2 under the old requirements. If there had not been any change in the NCEA level 2 requirements there would have been an overall positive growth for NCEA level 2 from 2012 to 2013.
Female school leavers were more likely to attain at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent than their male counterparts in 2013.
When looking at ethnicity, in 2013, Asian students had the highest proportion of school leavers attaining at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent, followed by European/Pākehā. Pasifika and Māori were found to have the lowest rates of attainment.
Figure 1: Percentage of total school leavers with at least an NCEA Level 2 or equivalent (2009-2013)
Ethnic Group
Total response ethnicity collection involves counting people who identify with more than one ethnic group in each of these ethnic groups. However for the New Zealand total, individuals are counted only once. In 2013 Asian students had the highest percentage of school leavers attaining at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent (87.9%), which was nine percentage points higher than European/Pākehā (78.9%). Pasifika (67.6%) and Maori (55.1%) had the lowest rates.
Looking at the ethnic group trends, the largest percentage point increase in those attaining at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent has been in Pasifika school leavers, with an increase of 11.1 percentage points between 2009 (56.4%) and 2013 (67.6%) and Māori school leavers, with an increase of 9.5 percentage points between 2009 (45.6%) and 2013 (55.1%). This can be compared to the European/Pākehā school leavers, who had a 6.4 percentage point increase between 2009 (72.5%) and 2013 (78.9%). Asian students (87.9%) had an increase of 5.1 percentage points over the same time period. These changes indicate that the disparities between most ethnic groups have reduced slightly over time but a large achievement gap remains for Māori and Pasifika students.
Since 2012 the proportion of European/Pākehā students achieving at least NCEA Level 2 or equivalent dropped by 0.5 percentage points while Māori achievement levelled off to a 0.2 percentage point improvement. The proportion of Asian school leavers with level 2 or above improved by 0.9 percentage points from 2012, but Pasifika leavers had the greatest improvement (2.7 percentage points) from 2012 to 2013.
Figure 2: Percentage of school leavers with at least an NCEA Level 2 qualification or equivalent, by ethnic group (2009 to 2013)
From 2009 to 2012 there has been a consistent pattern of females attaining NCEA Level 2 or equivalent at higher rates than males. In 2013, the trend of Female school leavers (77.2%) achieving at a higher rate than their male counterparts (71.4%) continued. However, the size of the gender gap is closing with the difference decreasing by 3.1 percentage points since a recent peak in 2010.
From 2012 to 2013, male achievement rose by 0.7 percentage points whereas female achievement dropped by 1.2 percentage points. This reduced the gender disparity by 1.6 percentage points over the same period.
Figure 3: Percentage of school leavers with at least an NCEA Level 2 qualification or above, by ethnic group (2012)
A clear positive correlation can be seen between the socio-economic mix of the school the student attended and the percentage of school leavers attaining at least an NCEA Level 2 or equivalent qualification. Schools in the lowest deciles (deciles 1 and 2) draw their students from communities with the highest degree of socio-economic disadvantage.
In 2013, 90.0% of students from schools in the highest deciles (deciles 9 and 10) left school with at least an NCEA Level 2 qualification. This was 31.4 percentage points higher than the percentage for school leavers in deciles 1 and 2 (58.6%). There is, however, a great deal of variation amongst schools within each decile, with some schools in the lowest deciles with a greater proportion of students achieving a level 2 qualification or above than some schools in the highest deciles.

Diversity of opinion is good. And shutting it down can cut both ways.
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice spoke at the California Republican Party 2014 Spring Convention in Burlingame, Calif. University of Minnesota faculty and student activists are pressuring the school to rescind its invitation to Rice to speak at the Twin Cities campus April 17 as part of the Humphrey School of Public Affairs' lecture series.
As a parent of a college student, I have come to have a renewed appreciation for the necessity of free speech as well as the importance for diversity of opinion on college campuses.
Donna Shalala, a former secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and a former college president — and someone with whom I share very little in the way of political views — once said: "You can't have a university without having free speech, even though at times it makes us terribly uncomfortable. If students are not going to hear controversial ideas on college campuses, they're not going to hear them in America. I believe it's part of their education."
On this, I wholeheartedly agree with Shalala.
The desire by some on the campus of the University of Minnesota to restrict the ability of former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to speak and be heard is, at one level, understandable. At another level, it is not just incongruous with, but perilous to, free speech.
I get it. Her opponents reject the policies Rice has supported. But my understanding of their rationale is not enough for me to support their goal of blocking the speech of one they disagree with — and the right of others who may agree or disagree with that speech to hear it.
Is Rice being paid a lot of money to give her speech? Yes. So are folks like former President Bill Clinton.
Are they worth it? I suppose, like many things, it's in the eyes (and ears) of the beholder.
Should their speeches be paid with public dollars? Absolutely not. Rice is being paid with dollars raised by private individuals.
These issues cut both ways. No matter my opinion of him, I should no more attempt to block the presence of Clinton on campus than others should attempt to block the presence of former Secretary of State Rice.
Diversity of opinion and argument is good.
Perhaps, rather than attempting to shut down speech we don't agree with, more of us should join our peers and friends and debate the ideas. Maybe we will agree on many. Disagree on more. But, when all is said and done, each of us will be better informed of the world around us, as well as the people who occupy it.
I am years from that bright-eyed college student enjoying all of the freedom and ideas of a college campus. However, I am the mom of a son who is now having those experiences, and I will soon have a daughter who will, as well. I want them to be able to learn from others — both those whom they agree with and those with whom they don't.
Inherent in the rush by some to stop Rice from speaking is the ultimate question of why they should have the right to decide what ideas their peers on a college campus should be exposed to and what speech they should be allowed to hear. I suspect they would recoil in horror if a classmate of theirs with a differing opinion were given the right to randomly decide what ideas they would hear or whether they, themselves, would be given the right to protest that speaker's words.
Is there ugly, venomous speech in the world in America? Are there groups and individuals whose ideas and rhetoric are so vile that it causes us to cringe and withdraw or even strike out?
Should we pay public dollars to afford those who seek to offend or cause harm to others the platform to do so?
In America, however, we also should not deprive them of their right to speak freely and openly. Nor should we deprive others of the right to choose to hear what they have to say, or simply ignore it.

in contingency planning for a crisis over the STL, i can see why they'd
watnt to stockpile and i can also see why syria would want to keep a tight
lid on that

military and commercial grade explosives are more regulated, so it's
easier to track shipments and keep that stuff out of bad guys' hands.
Also, if we're saying that Syria and Iran are trying to tighten the
screws on HZ, then they could be limiting their shipments, too.
Agree that you can still make a big nitrogen based (i.e. fertilizer)
device, but it takes some more, or at least different know-how than C4
or RDX. I'm sure a group like HZ could adjust appropriately, but like
Chris points out, fertilizer bombs are less discretionary and more
crater inducing. More appropriate for a huge terror attack rather than
small, specifically targeted attacks.

The question to ask is why is HZ having trouble getting PE and other
military grade bang? What has changed their?

my chemistry is pretty rusty, but from what i remember from my organic
chem days, you can make explosives from that stuff but it requires a
lot of bulk
doesn't strike me as v good for conventional weapons or suicide vests

*** Tactical team, would like your take on this. If this checks
we should publish.
HZ is having difficulty obtaining C4 and RDX for producing
devices. Syria is now supplying HZ with one-third of its production
ammonium nitrate, a high nitrogen fertilizer that has a military
because it is an excellent oxidizing agent in explosives. He says
Syrian supply comes from its petrochemicals facility in Homs and
amounts to about 15 thousand tons. He says Lebanon imports the
nitrates ostensibly for agricultural purposes, but only five
of the supply reaches farmers and agricultural cooperatives.
This explains why HZ insisted, when Saad Hariri was forming his
cabinet in 2009, on appointing one of its men as the minister of
agriculture. The present minister of agriculture Hussein Haj Hasan
sells the nitrate shipments to HZ agents and sees to it that they
transferred to HZ warehouses as soon as they enter Lebanese
via al-Dabbusiyya border station in north eastern Lebanon. HZ pays
Syrians twice the market price for the sodium nitrates. The Syrians
who produce only half their needs of nitrates use the money for
purchasing cheaper fertilizers from sources in east Europe.

Hello. I am trying to build deactivated/airsoft Suomi M/31 as my school degree work. Even tho i live in Finland and it's a Finnish gun i can't find any blueprints on my own. I mainly need the measurements for the external parts. Barrel cover OD and length, barrel cover vent hole width and length, receiver total length ( inc. end cap) and diameter, end cap length and diameter, total length from end cap to muzzle. Basically i plan to draw the outline into a CAD program using the above dimensions, then overlay a photo of the gun including stock into this. Hopefully i will get the rest of the dimensions from this. TIA Arzi

Thank you both for linking me those but they don't help me at all. Those sites give me information about the gun and i know it all, but i need measurements so i can build one myself. I need blueprints and measurements for external parts.
