I don't know which string orchestra is responsible for the screeching sound after ever twist on "Lost." But they're underpaid.
Unfortunately for the Mets, no matter how much money they pour into their bullpen, they can't seem to consistently save games for their ace, Johan Santana. Another perfectly winnable Johan start fell by the wayside Wednesday when J.J. Putz suffered his first breakdown of the season. Walks will kill you every time. They certainly killed Putz this time.
And while this loss is clearly on Putz's shoulders — and the shoulders of the batters who stranded 14 runners on-base — all you really want to talk about from this game is Jerry Manuel's peculiar decision to pinch-hit for Ramon Castro with Omir Santos with the bases loaded and two outs in the ninth.
Actually to call that decision "peculiar" is an insult to every possible UFO or Sasquatch sighting that gets the "peculiar" tag. This was just nonsensical.
As I wrote earlier this week, Castro never seems to seize the opportunities he's handed and he has a bit of a bad reputation dating back to the Willie Randolph regime. But the guy has pop in his bat and had a couple hits Wednesday in his increasingly rare at-bats. To take the bat out of his hands there for his rookie backup just doesn't seem like the thing to do. Of course it's easy to say that now after he popped out but I don't know anyone that would claim to have understood it at the time either.
Here's Manuel's explanation, via MLB.com:
"I thought Santos had a better shot. When you have a little shorter swing, you have a better chance against a guy throwing in the upper 90s [mph]."
OK, if you honestly don't think Castro can catch up to an upper-90s fastball, then it's time to trade him. You'll probably get something for him because everyone seems to think he could be a decent catcher.
Everyone but the Mets it would seem.

Mariska Hargitay: Staying Sane When Life Is Moving Fast
By David A. Keeps
Special Offers
Stay-Safe Wisdom
Mariska Hargitay cares deeply about personal safety and so does GH. Here are smart tips from the National Crime Prevention Council (ncpc.org) to help you avoid becoming a victim.
To Prevent an Attack
- If you're alone, be sure to walk in busy, well-lit areas. If you know an area is sketchy, avoid it, period.
- If a stranger stops to ask you a question, be sure to stand an arm's length away as you respond. You'll have a better chance of escaping if you're attacked.
- Avoid scrolling through your smartphone, talking on your cell, or playing with your iPod while walking. You'll look distracted, which makes you an easier target.
- If you're walking at night, never wear headphones. During the day, if you must wear them, keep one earbud out and the volume low so that you can always hear what's going on around you.
- Avoid dark stairwells. And if you're in the elevator alone, close the doors as soon as possible so you are less likely to get stuck inside with an attacker.
- If you feel threatened when you're in a bar or restaurant, don't just sit there; tell the staff. Make it look like you're talking about the menu. You can also send a text-message or call 911.
If You Are Attacked
- Yell "FIRE!" rather than screaming or yelling "HELP!" It's hard to interpret screams, and the word "fire" draws more attention than "help."
- Use whatever you can as a weapon: your purse, your keys, your nails. Carry a travel-size container of hairspray in your purse; you can use it to blur your attacker's vision.
- Kick your attacker in the groin, or scratch his eyes to help you escape.
- If your attacker wants your purse, give it to him.
- Take a mental photo of your attacker; note tattoos, height, weight, clothing.
- Call 911 ASAP after the attack. Then, write down everything that happened in your phone, or on paper. Another option: Text a report to law enforcement. Check with your local police and preprogram the number to text into your phone.

text: Latin freestyle group Collage helped revitalize an all-but-abandoned style still reeling from its drastic, early-'90s loss of popularity. Collage was essentially vocalist Anthony Monteleone, along with producer/songwriter Adam Marano, who also ran the Viper Records label for which Collage recorded. Viper's parent label, Metropolitan, issued the Viper's Freestyle Hit Parade compilation in 1994; it helped break the Collage single "I'll Be Loving You" nationally, reviving the freestyle sound that had produced a number of club and pop hits during the late '80s (but subsequently lost most of its audience). Collage's debut album, Chapter One, was released later that year, producing another hit in the follow-up "Gangster of Love"; it also prominently featured female backup vocalist Denine. Collage's success helped spark a renewal of interest in freestyle during the '90s (on a more underground rather than mainstream level), and Marano went on to work with several other artists. The second Collage album, Chapter II: 1999, didn't appear for another five years; however, it still managed to produce a minor hit, "Angel." Chapter 3 was released in late 2001, spawning the single "Tonight." ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

The fact is, mobile is the opportunity that papers have been waiting for. The PC—the bolt-upright, lean-forward experience—was never a good technology for journalism and was always going to be transitional. And laptops are only slightly better. The industry has waited a long time for something better to come along.
Now it has. Time to get cracking.
It's true that newspaper companies have a much bigger job than startups—to transform what are essentially industrial operations into technology companies. And it's easy to pick on them.
On the other hand, they have zero choice in the matter.

Obama Won Florida Because of the Gay Vote
"Similarly, analysis of preliminary returns from Florida show that the 420,000 total LGBT votes cast in the state may be a deciding factor in President Obama's projected lead in Florida," reads a new analysis by the Williams Institue. "Though final results aren't yet known, an estimated 300,000 LGBT Floridians voted for the president -- a margin many times larger than the current vote difference between the two candidates."
Nationally, 76 percent of self-identified LGBT voters voted for the President. Only 22 percent voted for Romney.
In Florida, Obama got 73 percent of the LGBT vote. 26 percent voted from Romney.
That's not much of a surprise. Obama repealed Don't Ask, Don't Tell, and became the first sitting president to personally back gay marriage. Mitt Romney maintains that Obama won because of "gifts" he gave to certain groups of voters, and apparently the "gift" of equality goes a long way.
Among state voters in Florida, the Institute finds that Romney won 51 to 49 percent. Romney also would have won the national popular vote and other close swing states, like Ohio, if it were only up to straight voters.

"This is a solid 89 rated cigar"

Bert in United States October 23, 2013
"Excellent Cigar"
Excellent construction, slow burning with a medium to full body. A very compacted stick with a complexity of spice, pepper and sweetness. This is a must-try for the price. I won it at the auction site and immediately bid on more. You can not do wrong with this one. You have to try this stick!

You Are Dumb, which is not a blog, posts new columns every weekday, except for a couple of days each month when it doesn't. It is also a Twitter feed, @youaredumb, with content in a similar vein but much shorter. My spinoff food site, Forkbastard, can be found easily enough by the clever.
Archive - Mar 9, 2007Who To BlameMemo to me: OLDER AGAIN. Time for the You Are Dumb Dot Net birthday tradition. Sometimes I put a fair amount of effort into photoshopping an image. Sometimes I throw up a fern and some links to past columns. Sometimes I ignore the tradition in favor of some vitally important mocking. This year, I have an image that doesn't actually mean anything, but I like it anyway. It's a panel from Vertigo Comics' "Jack of Fables", issue 8, by Bill Willingham, Matthew Sturges, Tony Akins, and Andrew Pepoy. The panel has context, but I like it better removed entirely from that context and reappropriated for my own. I don't know. There's just something strangely appealing about a random, beaten man blaming his woes on my clan. This must be how Jimmy Khan of Bugfuck, Nebraska feels every time he gets to that spot in Star Trek II. You know the spot. And if you don't know the spot, show this paragraph to the nearest nerd and have him explain it to you. |

There is of course much more happening in the build, so continue reading for more details…
Spaatz Feature: Limited Faction Resources

Special Assignment Weekend Winners!
UPDATE 9th of October 2014: It appears that there were some issues with some of the stats in the Infantry contest and the Fighter Pilot contest, so we have now updated the results with new data. The Infantry contest counted caps/cap assists for all characters and not just infantry, where the new list is for infantry characters only. The Fighter Pilot contest counted how many players (pilots) you have killed who are sitting in a plane, where the new list shows how much damage you have inflicted on enemy fighter planes (each plane has 1000 hp).
The top-3 results are almost the same, and we will make sure compensate the ones who are no longer in top-3. The reason for this screw up from us was due to bad communication internally here at the office. We hope you can bear with us and forgive us.
What a fantastic weekend! We have pulled the numbers from the servers, and are proud to announce the winners of the Special Assignment Weekend. CONGRATULATIONS to the winners of the Steam Packs, and thanks to all who joined and made this special weekend memorable. :)

Officer/General: Seek and Destroy!
drTannenbaum with Assault Team T.Baum's Lemmings 01 (Lem01) destroying 2164 resources
drTannenbaum with Assault Team T.Baum's Lemmings 02 (Lem02) destroying 1892 resources
Narauk0 with Assault Team 1.GjDiv 'Edelweiss' (1.GjDiv) destroying 1781 resources

For each assignment we give the following packs to the top-3 performers:
1st place: Ultimate Heroes & Generals Pack (US faction/German faction)
2nd place: All Heroes Pack (US faction/German faction)
3rd place: Tank Crew Starter Pack (US faction/German faction)
We will contact the winners this week on the email-address their account is registered with.
Below you'll find the top-100 performers in each Special Assignment:
Special Assignment Weekend – Win Steam Packs
UPDATE Tuesday the 7th of October: We're doing an extra "cheat-review" today of the players with the highest score in each assignment to be sure that the numbers are legit, so we will probably not be able to announce the winners today – we aim to do it tomorrow instead.
UPDATE Monday the 6th of October: The contest is now over, and we'll announce the winners tomorrow (Tuesday)!
This weekend we're trying something new, while we wait for the coming Spaatz update! We're running 6 Special Assignments, where the top-3 performers in each assignment will win one of the new Steam Packs, giving loads of Weapons, Vehicles, Characters, Gold and much more.
We will also give players who have registered an account and played at least one battle before Friday the 26th of September a free 3-day Veteran Membership for the weekend to make up for the server-downtime we had due to the DDoS attack two weeks ago.
Steam Packs
As a new or veteran player you might have visited the in-game store and looked at all the cool stuff you could unlock and buy, but don't feel you have the time to unlock and earn the credits for it – or maybe you've wondered what you should buy to get started on a new career.
So we have created 2 x 4 packs (4 per faction) loaded with Characters, Weapons, Vehicles, Gold, Veteran Membership and other cool stuff – all with a considerable discount compared to if you were to buy the items in the packs individually for gold.
These packs are now for sale on Steam as 'Downloadable Content', and they all exist in two versions: one for the US and one for the German faction – look under "Downloadable Content For This Game" just below the green "Play Game" button on our Steam store page.
Infantry Rookie Pack
A great starter pack for Heroes & Generals, that gives you a fully equipped Infantryman and an All Terrain Vehicle, plus gold and a Veteran Membership that boosts your XP-, ribbonpoints-, credits- and warfunds-earnings for 7 days.
US faction / German faction
Tank Crew Starter Pack
If you wish to start a career as Tanker in Heroes & Generals, then this pack is for you. It gives you a Tank Crewman with a selection of tanks and a tank destroyer, plus a submachine gun, a handgun and a wrench for repairing tanks. Besides you will also get a good amount of gold and a 14-day Veteran Membership.
US faction / German faction
All Heroes Pack
If you wish to be able to play all roles on the battlefields and don't want to play for weeks or months to unlock all the Heroes and their weapons, equipment and vehicles, then this pack is for you as it gives you 5 characters with loads of gear and vehicles. It also includes a substantial amount of Gold and a 90-day Veteran Membership.
US faction / German faction
Ultimate Heroes & Generals Pack
This pack enables you to get the full Heroes & Generals experience, where you can play all roles as Heroes on the battlefields AND command Assault Teams as a General without first having to spend hours, weeks and even months of playtime to progress your characters and unlock weapons, equipment and vehicles. You will also get a huge amount of gold to allow for extra premium purchases and Veteran Membership for a whole year (365 days). This pack contains over 200 EUR/250 USD worth of in-game items, Veteran Membership and gold!

In 2009, the Oregon Heart & Vascular Institute's board-certified electrophysiologists performed 214 cardiac ablations.
Cardiac ablation involves inserting an electrode-bearing catheter into a blood vessel in either the neck or groin and threading it to the heart, where it can pinpoint the location of the faulty electrical site. Once the damaged site is confirmed, energy -- either radiofrequency or cryotherapy -- is used to destroy a small amount of tissue, ending the disturbance or electrical flaw and restoring healthy heart rhythm.
Catheter ablation is most often used to treat rapid heartbeats that begin in the upper chambers of the heart. The procedure can also be used to successfully treat atrial fibrillation.
At the Oregon Heart & Vascular Institute, electrophysiologists and surgeons work closely together, whether during a cardiac ablation procedure or minimally invasive surgery, to thoroughly test and verify that the procedure has the intended therapeutic outcome for the patient.

On Saturday, family and friends remembered a loyal Bladen County coach and friend. There was a barbecue held at the Dixie Youth Field in Clarkton in honor of Buddy Burney.
Burney was the longtime sports editor for the Bladen Journal. In December, he was diagnosed with pancreatic and liver cancer, and unexpectedly passed away last Saturday.
Burney coached Dixie Youth Baseball for more than thirty years. He left behind family, friends and years of memories.
Marsha Burney, Buddy's sister-in-law said, "Fantastic man, did not have an enemy, didn't have a bad thing to say about anybody. Just the salt of the earth. Just the finest fellow you would ever want to meet."

After nearly two decades in daily journalism as a staff photographer at the Arizona Republic and The Chicago Tribune Paul Gero transition his career into portraiture and wedding photography. He is a die hard RadLab fan, and we're very excited to feature him in a mini-interview.
Because we're not immune to New Year Resolutions a big part of our photo talk lately is about what we want to do with our photography in the coming months. We've rounded up some of the crew's favorite photo ambitions for 2013.
Today's prize is a $300 credit to Colorati! It is the perfect thing to get you out from under your pile of work, and let you start taking back your life.
The only thing that comes close to our love for photography is our love for talking about photography! Our staffers have decided to get together to share some of our favorite online photography resources.
You shot the photos, toiled away editing, and it is finally time to send away for prints. Just one problem, your printer offers a TON of paper options, and you have no idea which to choose. Lucky for you the good people at ProDPI are here to help.
Let's face it; Photo editing can be a little scary. There are a million tools, and a million little ways to use them. The good news is we've got your back. For this week's webinar we're going to collect your questions ahead of time, and at 4 pm PDT on Thursday July 12th Doug is going to give you some answers.
Along with some great prizes, Doug will be showing you how to get the most of Lightroom with three different Totally Rad! products, including exclusive LR4-only features. Your workflow definitely doesn't want to miss it!
I'll be honest, I have mixed feelings about January. On the one hand, the New Year is an opportunity to start fresh, set new goals and establish new habits. On the other hand, the New Year brings with it a lot of pressure to start fresh, set new goals and (you guessed it!) establish new habits. Add to that the sheer exhaustion that inevitably comes during the Holidays and January can be a real bummer.
We caught up with Mathieu Snelson to ask him about the experiences behind capturing the heart warming images from a USMC homecoming that we shared on our Facebook page and Twitter last week.
Have you ever heard of a 365 project? It is one of the biggest undertakings a photographer can do. Come on in, we'll tell you all about it!
Developing a consistent visual style is one of the most important things you'll ever do with your photography. It will help you create a strong brand, that gives your clients confidence in your work. We recently were able to catch up with the talented Keith Cephus for a quick Q + A about creating a strong visual style.
The best photographers never stop learning, and there is no better way to learn than to work for someone you respect. To help you improve we've collected some of the best advice on second shooting from some of the best photographers out there.
This is part two of our deluxe bout of He & She goodness. (Part One lives here.) Today, it's all about the post processing! TRA: Describe your wedding workflow for us. Who does what, and […]
We sent some question-y goodness over to Southern California shooting dream team He & She, and they responded in a big-bold-badass way. We've decided to split their interview into questions + Totally Rad eye candy, […]

BOX 1-1 Statement of Task The Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology) (ASAALT) has requested the NRC BAST to conduct a study of neuroscience in terms of its potential to support military applications. The study will address what neuroscience can be expected to do as well as what neuroscience advances could do if provided appropriate direction and investment. Given the fact that the field of neuroscience is very extensive and there are many other investments underway in numerous areas and sub-areas, this study will focus on those areas that have high-payoff potential for the Army where it is unlikely that others will devote substantial resources to research and exploitation in these areas for Army benefit. The study will also suggest opportunities for leveraging specific investments where appropriate for the Army. Specifically, the study will
The NRC appointed the Committee on Opportunities in Neuroscience for Future Army Applications to carry out the study. Special care was devoted to the composition of the committee. Some members had backgrounds in the traditional facets of neuroscience such as psychology and cognitive science and in neurology, including neuronal stimulation, neuropharmacology, imaging techniques, and human–computer interfaces (traditional ergonomics); others had expertise in newer and emerging subdisciplines and cross-disciplinary fields such as neuroimmunology, neuroeconomics, neuroergonomics, augmented reality, and computational neuroscience. Members were also selected on the basis of their experience in research and development (R&D), military operations, and medicine, and in training specialties such as memory and learning, assessment, decision making, prediction, and reading intentionality. Short biographies for the members are given in Appendix A.
Initially the committee was divided into data-gathering teams based on the Army's own perception of neuroscience requirements. The teams determined sources of outside expertise that would be helpful to the committee's study and reviewed recent publications on neuroscience topics, including two recent NRC studies for DOD sponsors (NRC, 2008a, 2008b). The streams of data-gathering activity were brought together midway though the committee's deliberations when the first full-message draft was being written. A consensus was reached on pertinent findings to be contained in the report, and the committee was reconstituted into writing teams to draft the findings. The committee's conclusions and recommendations were refined and ratified at the final meeting. All of the meetings and data-gathering activities are documented in Appendix B.

I finally decided I'm not talking to that person anymore. She doesn't respect me. And she doesn't care about me either. I dont' know why she continued to talk to me after I told her I was gay, honestly she didn't for two monthes and I thought our relationship was fine. But then she sort of gave me an ultimatum that if I was going to talk aboutbeing gay or talking about other gay people I would have to find new friends..
Why? I don't even understand this myself. I know you can't exactly help who you get crushes on but comeone give me a chance at least once. I don't understand why I get crushes on straight girls all the time.
Yeah so my new crush is straight. And I haven't told her. I don't know when I will.Though I have a little but of hope, not that I won't be turned down but that I will actually be thought of
I miss the feeling of your arms around me
Miss the walks in the pouring rain
Miss the noon brunches
Miss the kisses when you knew I missed you
I miss the chocolate strawberries in the fridge
And the way you used to feed me at midnight
I miss the laundry sheets
The way the bed used the smell of roses
I miss the moon light dinners by the beach
I miss the sand between my toes
The glimmer in your eye
So my friend, Loren told me about this website. She recently told all of our friends that she is bisexual. I have known that for a while and support her 100% in what she does.
I have my own little secret. I'm a lesbian. And while a handful of my friends know and don't even think of me as a different person. My parents would kick me out of the house if I told them.
I don't want to feel like I have to hide.

The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators & 10 Early Texas Psych Bands You Should Know
Forty-six years ago today, rock and roll got a hell of a lot weirder in the state of Texas. On Nov. 30, 1966, Austin garage band The 13th Floor Elevators released their The Psychedelic Sounds Of album on Houston's International Artists label. Powered by the raw, fluttering classic "You're Gonna Miss Me," the record helped fuel an acid explosion in rock from Buffalo Bayou to San Francisco Bay.
This is a record that still sounds edgy and unbound today. In 1966, it must have sounded shocking.

If anybody has had the opportunity to buy a new house from a "certain builder" , you may understand what a pain it is to get anything done... I mean anything. First you deal with the builder who comes in with a "checklist." You tell them what is wrong, and you think to yourself, that was easy. Little did I know, it would take umpteen phone calls to get even the simple things accomplished.

text: I have long admired the critic James Wolcott–his slashing wit, his erudition, his vocabulary, his taste and perception–but although we know many people in common, we have never met. Until I read his new book Lucking Out: My Life Getting Down and Semi-Dirty in Seventies New York, his lively memoir of a youth spent in Manhattan during a decadent, fertile decade, I didn't realize how very much more we had in common. Wolcott, like me, grew up in Maryland, although his home was not Baltimore but Edgewood, where my sister now lives. He, like I, spent afternoons in libraries sopping up Norman Mailer essays and evenings watching Dick Cavett, trying to absorb their teachings of far-off New York. He mentions making exciting visits to Sherman's newsstand (on Charles Street, was it? Or Cathedral?), just as I did, where under the dusty posters of Yves Montand and Steve McQueen and the gnarled supervision of the proprietor, Abe Sherman, he eyeballed exotic publications like Ramparts and The Nation and tasted an intellectual world far away. Later, his Old Line State roots served him well when he was able to decode the Baltimore Colt references in Diner for the New Yorker's Pauline Kael. Wolcott is a coupla-three years older than I, knew what he wanted earlier than I, moved to New York several years before I, and made important connections sooner; in reading his memoir, I felt like I was being caught up on what I'd missed about scenes that I had entered a few years later in their lives–garbagy, crime-ridden Manhattan, porny Times Square ("Wanna go out?"), punky Greenwich Village, the fesity, glamorous Village Voice and New York magazine, the city's whole collapsing, Bronx-Is-Burning era. Those were different days,as Wolcott points out, when people didn't spend much thinking about real estate or their salaries; when the city, as Christine Baranski recently pointed out, was governed by creative people who cared about the arts, not by financiers. It was a city that writers found it worth fighting to get into; now I wonder if it still a city worth fighting to hold onto. In one of the most valuable moments in the book, Wolcott shares the lessons he learned from his days working the front desk at the Voice, taking in over-the-transom submissions from optimistic freelance writers. "Avoid parody, which slides too easily into facetiousness. Avoid political satire, which has the shelf life of a sneeze. Avoid preamble–flip on the switch in the first sentence. Find a focal point for your nervous energy, assume a forward offensive stance, and drive to the finish line, even if it's only a five hundred word slot: no matter how short a piece, there has to be a sense of momentum and travel, rather than just allotted space being texted in. . . Writing that was too talky lacked the third rail below the surface that suggested untapped power reserves, an extra store of ammo." And danger, I might add. Thank you, maestro, for the lesson, and for the recollections.

Photographs of their murales were thereafter developed into wallpaper to cover the walls of the Hong Kong store and those of the showroom in Milan. They are very good indeed!

WTF is this? Click for full-size. (Thanks to the person who sent it)
Reader comment: Doug at iFilm says,
Funny you posted that picture. Here's a video of those guys in action. Whoever they are. (No annoying ads here, but it does require flash 8)
Reader comment: aragoto says,
The two comedians (they're Japanese, naturally) are Koji Higashino (in the blue) and Koji Imada (in the red). The sketch Doug links to is literally titled "The After-School Electromagnetic Wave Club", and involves them (this may be obvious, but the mini-tards are distracting) using their magnets to pull a groper away from his victim. I sense the humour is mainly to be had from the costumes. Link
Reader comment: Gwen in Oakland says,
That's the men's slingshot thong they're wearing, readily available online for the guys out there looking to surprise their loved ones, here's one for $25: Link. Unfortunately, my sister made her boyfriend wear one while DJing and showed me photos. I can't face him anymore.
Reader comment: justin says,
Here in Austin we are graced with the best movie theater chain in the world (well ok, they're spreading to other Texas cities too), The Alamo Drafthouse (link). The downtown theater does this show called "Super Happy Fun Monkey Bash" which features clips of random Japanese sketch comedy (many of which features those two guys in the thong/slingshot outfit) and Japanese TV commercials. Unfortunately there are no shows coming up, but you can get them on DVD. I found this, but don't know if it's endorsed by The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema or not: Link.
WINNING CAPTION: From Boing Boing reader Ben Bleiberg,
Together, we can finally defeat Chuck Norris.

Correction: Etsy artists will not go into space, but their artwork will
An onstage gaffe at a PSFK Conference panel made it seem like the results of an Etsy-NASA collaboration contest will get to fly into space. Not quite.
OK, this makes more sense.
CNET News.com reported earlier on a collaboration between crafts site Etsy and the NASA Ames Research Center on a new contest that encourages members of the Etsy community to design NASA-inspired handmade goods. The announcement was made at the PSFK Conference in New York during a panel discussion featuring NASA's Andrew Hoppin and Etsy founder Robert Kalin.
In an unintended verbal gaffe, Kalin said, "We'll send the two winners into space." The audience, along with this reporter, assumed he meant that the Etsy crafters who won the contest would get to be astronauts--in this world of Microsoft space tourists and Virgin Galactic , it didn't seem all that ridiculous.
Unfortunately for any wannabe astronauts, it'll be the winning artwork, not the artists, who get to go to space. Hoppin said later that he clarified the matter shortly thereafter, but that a malfunctioning microphone (there had been some sound issues earlier in the morning) may have that it wasn't widely heard.
So if you're an avid Etsy artist, you probably still won't fulfill your dreams of going into orbit--but your crocheted pillows might.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Clitoris enlargement is a form of body modification which has recently gained popularity because of its potential to increase pleasure and enhance the appearance of the genitals. Clitoral enlargement can be accomplished through a variety of means, each having certain side effects and risks.[1][2][3][4]
Motivations for desiring enlargement of the clitoris vary. Women who have a very small clitoris may not get adequate pleasure from sexual intercourse and therefore may choose to enlarge it to increase pleasure. Women with normally sized clitorises may wish to increase size to increase pleasure or to appear more attractive. The clitoral pump, like the penis pump, may be used prior to, or during, masturbation for temporary effect. Some testosterone-altered, female bodybuilders, with enlarged clitorises, may better be able to use such techniques. Another reason for clitoral pumping is that some transmen may desire to enlarge their clitorises through pumping.
Clitoral enlargement can also be a medical condition known as clitoromegaly or macroclitoris.[1][5]
The most common methods of clitoris enlargement are
There is disagreement on the best approach, many claim size increases from pumping while others say testosterone is the only way to obtain significant results. Both methods involve some risk. If pumping is done incorrectly it can cause damage to the erectile tissue and blood vessels. The use of any steroid such as testosterone incurs risk as these compounds can have broad systemic effects.
While the systemic effects of testosterone are both expected and desired in both transmen and female body builders, they are generally undesirable for most women. Thus, one of the most pressing questions is whether the clitoris can be enlarged without causing other unwanted virilizing effects. To reduce side effects, many women attempt local topical administration. Anecdotal evidence[6] suggests that DHT (Dihydrotestosterone), a very potent androgen, can effectively be used for this purpose with minimal side effects. No scientific studies have confirmed this effect in female anatomy but research targeting the treatment of micropenis has found that local application of DHT is very effective at stimulating penile growth.[7] Due to the biological similarity between penile and clitoral tissue, significant growth of the clitoris is likely. Unlike testosterone, DHT can not be converted into the estrogen Estradiol and is thus ideal for generating purely androgenic effects. Topical administration of DHT is a well known treatment for clitoral growth in the FTM community.[8]
Pumping is another commonly applied method of clitoris enlargement. Evidence proving its effectiveness is still lacking but it continues to be a popular activity. The potential dangers of vacuum pumping are well known to those familiar with penis pumping. If the applied vacuum pressure is too great it can cause bursting of blood vessels, bruising, blistering, damage to erectile tissue, and other types of trauma. Safe pressures are generally considered to be less than 5 in-Hg of vacuum or .17 atm (16 kPa).
A less common approach to clitoral enlargement is saline injection.[9] The side effects of this technique are unknown.

Project Success
What is Project Success?
Project Success, or EDUC 205 & 470: Life and Career Planning is a one-credit academic course for seniors and sophomores that focuses on personal development, community service, career development, and citizenship. The course prepares students to excel both in their time at Longwood and in a competitive employment market.
Sophomore participants will gain a range of attitudes and skills essential for learning: self-discipline, confidence, perseverance, responsibility, integrity and hard work. They will work with a Senior Mentor to set challenging goals that will help them become more competent, concerned and complete human beings who have workable plans for academic and social success. Both seniors and sophomores will participate in an interactive curriculum designed to promote self-discovery. Senior members serve as mentors - as role models challenging and supporting sophomore participants to engage in learning activities that promote academic success, involvement, and social responsibility.
In addition, each Senior Mentor will lead a group of sophomores in collaborating on a significant community partner project.
What students are saying about Project Success:
- "I learned the deeper meaning of community service and why it is important. I feel empowered and ready [to be] a citizen leader after Project Success!"
- "I learned there is not one type of leader. In fact, there are multiple styles of leadership all of which have their own unique qualities."
- "Of all the things we covered in Project Success, I have to say that I learned to trust in myself and my abilities rather than simply relying on the strengths of others. I learned that I have a voice and should use it much more often. I should never feel as if my opinion doesn't matter because it can have a great impact and make a huge difference."
Coming Soon! Apply to be a Senior Mentor for Project Success 2015!
Please know that Senior Mentors are chosen through an application process. If you are interested in participating, online applications will be available starting in March 2015. Students selected as a Senior Mentor will be registered for EDUC 470: Peer Mentoring by the Facilitation Team and will receive one-credit hour.

For those of us on quarter system, school seems pretty far away, even as August 1 approaches. For those of you on semesters, however, school is just around the corner. I was pleased to see that my Instructors' Resources for Discovering Biological Psychology 2e were up and running on the Cengage site. Instructor Resources for Discovering Biological Psychology Are Up and Running The resources contain the usual–testbank (2400 questions by me), powerpoints, lecture notes and enrichment ideas, and so on. We still have our wonderful 1e animations that I did with John Woolsey–lots of good feedback on those from students and faculty. I am especially proud of two new features–I spent a huge amount of time sorting through online videoclips on youtube and other sources, and integrated my recommendations with the lecture notes. I piloted these with my Spring Quarter 09 students, and they were really well received. Most are in the 2-3 minute range, so they break up lecture without losing one's train of thought. Students stay awake. The second feature we added was a set of 10 clicker questions for each chapter, again integrated with the lecture notes. I really enjoyed using iClicker this past Spring, so once again, these questions have been tested on my own students. I hope you find these resources useful in your own teaching! If you can think of other things we could incorporate, please let me know. |

The Changing Media EcosystemThough the transformation of the motion picture industry from a fully analog culture to a fully digital culture is nearly complete, our media ecosystem is still ever evolving.

Craving Carbs? Here's Why (And What to Do About It)
If you find yourself craving carbs at this time of year, it may be because your serotonin levels are low. Levels of this "feel-good" neurotransmitter often dip during the winter, leaving you with the blues—and the munchies. Chowing down on sweets and starchy foods like bread, cereal, pasta, and sweets may temporarily elevate serotonin levels—and your mood. But "self-medicating" with food can also lead to winter weight gain.
Fortunately, there are other ways to stimulate serotonin. A brief session of moderately intense exercise can boost serotonin production, raise your spirits, and help you feel more energized. And instead of eating unwanted calories, you'll have burned some instead! So, the next time you want to dive into a bowl of noodles, head out for a brisk walk or fire up the Wii Fit instead. Chances are, the craving will pass. (Serotonin is a natural appetite suppressant, as well.)
When you do reach for carbohydrate foods, be sure to choose whole grain options, which are more nutritious. And eat them in moderation.
If you're in the mood for something sweet, reach for some fresh fruit. In season (and supernutritious) right now: grapefruit, clementines, oranges, pomegranates, and kiwi! For ideas on how to cook with the fruit, see these low-carb fruit recipes.
Read Amy Palanjian's post "Find Your Way to Fruit Salad"for some delicious low-carb, low cal ways to make fruit hit the sweet spot.
You'll lesson your love affair with carbs with the help of these Low-Carb Recipes.

A low-carb diet limits carbohydrates — such as grains, starchy vegetables and fruit — and emphasizes dietary protein and fat. Many types of low-carb diets exist, each with varying restrictions on the types and amounts of carbohydrates you can eat.::-;

The stench from the prison kitchen woke him in the mornings. Inmates were given vermin-rife bread for breakfast and sooty rice and watery beans for lunch, "with a side of bloody ground beef." The highlight came once a month: chicken day. Sometimes they'd get soft-serve ice cream — so melted it would inevitably trigger mass diarrhea. "I loved it. I didn't care about all the shitting," Gorki says. "It was the only thing with flavor they gave us."
That same year, Gil arrived in Miami. On a Fourth of July, no less. He headed to Kendall, where his wife had family. From the car, Miami looked like a neon-lit world full of promise. The fireworks, he thought, could only be a good omen.
Those blue-and-red-colored lenses soon wore off. Kendall "was very 'Welcome to the Jungle,'" he says. His wife's family pushed him to get a job.
Before the year was over, he split from South Florida and his wife, and headed to Las Vegas, where a friend lived. For a year, he worked as a prep cook at the Mirage Hotel & Casino. "It was a tough experience," he says. He didn't speak English. Nobody knew him. In that big town, he felt as anonymous as a chorus girl. Dreams of making it seemed to be dissipating, even if he carried his guitar everywhere.
"I thought, If this is America, I prefer Havana," he says. He stayed out West only a year.
In his dungeon, Gorki didn't write a single song for Porno Para Ricardo. He couldn't find the inspiration. His early songs seemed cruelly naive, and he didn't know how to write seriously about the depravity around him. "I didn't have any creative time," he says. "My head was too stressed out, too distraught with other thoughts." For one, his 6-year-old daughter, Gabriela, visited him only once during his sentence.
She appeared in her Sunday best — a mirage in that Dantean underworld — ran toward him, climbed onto his shoulders, and sobbed. "It's hard for a little girl to understand where I was or why," he recalls in one of several conversations from Havana, this time his voice breaking up not because of bad reception. "I broke out in tears. I still don't like to talk about it."
Instead of writing, Gorki sang Willy Chirino from his cot until lights out, while a fellow inmate banged on buckets they used to shower. The sound echoed through the stone-gray walls, and other prisoners sang along in unison, drowning out the screams of torture emanating from the basement.
Gorki's time in prison warped him, but not the way his jailers intended. Aside from murderers, political dissidents were also held at 5 1/2. In December 2002, Óscar Elías Biscet, who would receive George W. Bush's Presidential Medal of Freedom in absentia five years later, began a 25-year sentence for "counterrevolutionary activity." When the dissidents walked in the afternoons, the punk singer talked to Biscet through the peephole-sized window in his cell.
"They were very conscious of why they were there and had the strength of their convictions, and that fed me, gave me perspective," Gorki says. When he was released early two years later, the 35-year-old emerged eager to "assault those who screwed" him, he says.
"Politics trumped sex, what I used to write about. I got out hating the regime more and wanting to do something about it."
Biscet, meanwhile, is still serving his quarter-century sentence.
Alberto Alonso sets aside a glass of cheap Palo Viejo rum and lumbers toward what he calls el cuartico. He walks through a dirty kitchen where unpaid bills lie piled on the countertop, steps down into a dank laundry room, and then maneuvers into a converted utility space more confined than Dee Dee Ramone's stinky Converse sneakers. The walls are adorned with Ramones and Clash posters, tattered Cuban flags, and skull stickers. One frame holds a photo of a half-naked biker chick who resembles Bombshell McGee.
This is where Gil and the three other members of G2 rehearse Mondays and Wednesdays, usually after 9 p.m., when they've gotten off work. Alberto is the drummer, and his set occupies half the room. Beside it stand Javier Hernández on bass and Cesar Rios on the second electric guitar. They can hardly move without hitting one another, so the keep their feet planted, bobbing back and forth like dashboard hula dolls. If they weren't middle-aged, you might say there was some glamour in their struggling-musician look.
Near the entrance, Gil stands in full punk regalia. He pulls it off. Mostly. Where Iggy Pop has big blue eyes to set off his cubist face, Gil has a goofy grin he pulls as indiscriminately as punks spit at their audience. "Check, check," he says into the mike, where a beanie baby hangs loosely, and then flips a page of the lyric notebook spread open on the floor. "This is going to be enpingao, fucking dope."
Alberto closes the door. Outside, this late at night, the only sounds are of planes taking off from Miami International Airport and dozens of TV sets turned to Telemundo. He sits at the drums and taps his sticks twice. The effect is atomic — deafening silence followed by cigarette smoke, which the ceiling fan slowly circulates around the room. As the four tear into their instruments, the room shakes and the lights flicker bug-zapper-like from all the equipment plugged in.

Indie developer thatgamecompany's has made a name for itself in the game development world with games that are boldly simple and at the same time beautiful and evocative.
In flOw you swim in an underwater world, causing microbes to evolve and in Flower you control the wind. Journey follows its simple design and premise, in it you play a a nameless cloaked figure, you must reach the light beaming from a distant mountain by walking. That's it.
Naturally, there's much more to Journey than first appears so we accosted thatgamecompany's Robin Hunicke for a chat about the innovative game, life at the studio, the universe and online...
Journey is a broad idea - a walk down a very long road. How do you build boundaries to make that interesting?
We really wanted it to feel like when you go on a hike - even though the place is the same, it's different because of what you bring in your head. We thought it'd be better for you to choose to play with someone else rather than to feel you had to.
It's about really embracing that level of choice, and really letting the player drive it. I think it's a common thread in both Flow and Flower - trying to create a world that embraces your choices and respects them.
As vague as it sounds, that's a really hard rule for us. If something feels unnecessary or arbitrary, we wouldn't put it in just because it would look cool.
It has to have a meaning, it has to be there for a reason, it has to respond to the player's choices in a way that makes sense. If it doesn't, then we cut it.
Journey brings the lonely travel of Shadow of the Colossus to mind. Some loved that. Others didn't...
[Nintendo's Zelda game] Wind Waker has the same thing. I loved being in the boat in Wind Waker, but a lot of people hated it.
Are you expecting the same kind of polarised reaction?
I have no idea. This is something we're really excited to see. It's an experiment; we made it to see what online could be, to challenge expectations about what it means to play online with someone else.
That's the only reason we made it, the rest is kind of up to everyone else. It's their experiences that matter... what they take away from it in the end, we have no idea. What makes our experiment so interesting and worthwhile is that we're really waiting to see what other people say.
Who do you look to when you're trying to innovate?
[From Software's] Demon Souls and Dark Souls are things we've talked about a lot in the office. They've been inspiring to me. Also Minecraft - the idea you can create a server and people can go in and share that experience of crafting and creating without necessarily collaborating.
There's a lot of interesting work to be done in asynchronous but reflexive gameplay. I think that's a real fruitful area for designers to discover. That's a really fascinating idea and I think there are some really interesting designs there.
How do you play Journey?
When I play with someone who's pretty good, I take advantage and see how high we can fly and how we can dive. Another thing is I try to land without falling flat on my face; if you land at a certain speed and you aren't careful, you'll do a roll and then faceplant.
You've said you want to create new feelings. What sort of feelings?
The guiding light for this has been to create a human connection for that time when you're playing with a stranger - to take away the anxiety about performance. Journey is an opportunity for people to play in a safe way, which embraces the fact there are strangers and embraces the fact they may not even know the world in the same way. That feeling of connection and smallness is what we focused on for most of the project.
In a world where everyone's just fine shooting others in the face, are those feelings worth creating?
It's what we're passionate about. I don't think we have a choice. Life is short and you should do what you believe in - I believe you should work on things that make the world a better place, that increase the peace and bring people together.
Working on Journey has allowed me to experience a real dialogue about what it means to be on your own journey, what life means, and to ask, why are we here? Is it worthwhile? I feel like it is.

Two-stop strategy just enough to give Ferrari the edge
A superb tactical race saw Michael Schumacher clinch his seventh Canadian Grand Prix win in Montreal this afternoon. The Ferrari star came from sixth on the grid to finish a second ahead of brother Ralf, who scored his best result of the season with Williams.
It was also Michael Schumachers 77th Grand Prix triumph and his seventh of the season, yet for a while it seemed that the laurels would go to Ralf.
The younger German sprinted into the lead from pole position, from Jenson Button , Fernando Alonso, Juan Pablo Montoya, Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen (who so nearly got by Michael in Turn 1) and Rubens Barrichello. But behind them Jarno Trullis race ended as he left the startline with a suspected suspension failure accelerating away. When the field got to the first corner, Christian Kliens attempt to nip inside David Coulthard ended with the Austrian spinning the Scots McLaren, and then his Jaguar landing on team mate Mark Webbers.
On the sixth lap Barrichello passed Raikkonen, but we had to wait for the first pit stops for further action. Coulthard refuelled on lap 11, Raikkonen on lap 12. Button and Montoya came in on lap 13, Ralf on lap 15, and Alonso on lap 17, so by lap 18 Michael had moved smoothly ahead. How long the red cars stayed out would be crucial, but against expectations Barrichello refuelled as soon as lap 18 and Schumacher on 19.
Now Ralf led again with Button pushing hard, and Montoya chasing along between the two following Ferraris. When Button, Montoya and Ralf all refuelled before the 33rd lap, Schumacher was back in the lead with a clearly faster Barrichello breathing down his neck. The Brazilian didnt stop until lap 44, but Michael went even longer. When he finally came in on lap 47 it was clear that Ferrari had suckered everyone with a two-stop strategy instead of their rivals three. By the time everything settled down again after Ralf stopped on lap 47 and Button and Montoya pitted on lap 49, Michael was still leading comfortably from Ralf, and Barrichello was back ahead of Button and Montoya. Alonsos race ended with a mechanical failure at the start of the 45th lap, making this the first time this year that Renault have failed to finish a car.
Schumacher consolidated his lead as everyone else seemed to lose heart, opening it to 10 seconds before letting Ralf close within a second by the finish. Barrichello also caught Ralf, while Button and Montoya provided the final excitement as the Colombian was less than a second adrift of the Briton by the flag.
Further back an electronics problem lost Kimi Raikkonen sixth place to Giancarlo Fisichella when the Finn had to pit on lap 61 for a new steering wheel. Cristiano da Matta clung on for eighth and another point for Toyota, ahead of the delayed Coulthard who had a frustrating afternoon, and team mate Olivier Panis. Nick Heidfeld lost time when a refuelling stop on lap 21 went awry and he knocked over one of his Jordan pit crew (who was unhurt), so debutant team mate Timo Glock headed his fellow countryman home in 11th place. Klien and Zsolt Baumgartner completed the finishers.
Takuma Sato had a terrible afternoon, starting from the pit lane after taking the spare BAR, narrowly avoiding involvement in the first corner fracas, spinning in front of the leading Ferraris while challenging da Matta, and finally suffering another major engine failure on lap 49.
Felipe Massa was unhurt, but taken to hospital for a precautionary X-ray on his left elbow, after a high-speed shunt on the 65th lap caused, it appeared, by a detached left rear wheel on his Sauber.
This was a very satisfying win, and one that I owe to the team and its fantastic work, Schumacher said afterwards. We planned this race very carefully, and I am delighted that all our work paid off so handsomely. I couldnt have asked for more.
The win gives the apparently unstoppable Schumacher 70 points to Barrichellos 52 and Buttons 43, while Ferrari have 122 points, Renault 61 and BAR 51.
