Our Player Ratings: More Interesting Than England
Driving home from work last night I heard the team news over the radio and for a brief moment I thought Roy might have seen the light and play the diamond formation Liverpool used on Sunday to great effect. I then realised he would start with 442 with Sterling and the Ox wide.
Roy, Roy, Roy when will you learn. You started with your perceived strongest eleven (debatable) and subsequently toiled for seventy minutes in an archaic formation that is just not fit for purpose. Milner and Welbeck on and you finally switched to a diamond. Why not start with this Roy? The Ox can play centrally and drive forward and currently England's brightest light (Sterling obviously) playing in his best position.
I fully expect to be in the same place on Monday with the same team sheet being read out and realising that Roy has no real clue. Sod the people turning up for the game, If 20 seconds into the game Sterling is wide left and the Ox is wide right, I'm going to turn my TV off and look forward to your player rating section post match. (Takes a few mins to read and far more interesting than Roy's England for 90 mins).

No Technically Gifted Players
After watching last night's game I felt compelled to write in. I have always wondered why England have struggled so much in international games and the one thing that always seems evident is the poor technical ability of English players. Having been born in Scotland I have had to put up with some really crap football in my lifetime, particularly when I'm playing.
This brings me to the ability of the professional players. Last night John Stones had acres of space to run up the right wing, but when faced with a defender he usually turned back and passed to whoever was the deepest of the midfielders, usually Henderson. Now he's not a marauding right back in the mould of Dani Alves, but is it too much to ask that he take a man on and maybe whip in a cross? When Welbeck came on he received a pass and let the ball go under his foot and out for a throw- £16 million? Don't think so.
Germany won the World Cup this year because the players were technically better than most (and they also had a fair amount of good luck). Ozil for all the stick he gets is more proficient with the ball at his feet than Wayne Rooney. The only exemption from criticism is Raheem Sterling. When he receives the ball his first instinct is to push forward, whether it's with a driving run or a through ball to the strikers. He's the sort of player that makes fans stand up in anticipation. James Milner? Not so much. This is something which affects all the British teams, not just England. Is it the coaching, the attitudes or something else?

More 'Token Rubbish' From F365
As someone who has often slated F365 and their opinions, I have decided now to only read the mailbox and John Nicholson's column. Anything labelled "F365 says" , I feel, should always be treated with trepidation as their opinion is often absolute tosh, driven by market trends and corporate social responsibility so actually we don't get an honest opinion, we get what society allows us to read.
In light of this, I couldn't help but read the England player ratings (it didn't say F365 says so I accidentally read it) and of course I find myself disagreeing wholeheartedly with the opinion.
The phrase "With that in mind, it makes sense for Hodgson to build his side around Sterling, and that surely means him operating in a No. 10 role" really is the most parochial, uneducated and frankly stupid comment you could possibly come out with and is exaclty why England are stuck in the dark ages.
Why? A team is not a team if you build it round 1 man. Why the obsession to always build a "team" around 1 man? So we can build him up to knock him down again?
It is so pathetic that a supposedly well respected site (I use that term very loosely) would come out with such token rubbish that shows they have absolutely no understanding of football.
It is a team game so stop trying to find your new messiah to crucify when it all goes pear-shaped.
Fat Man Scouse, EFC
Get Huddlestone In
I thoroughly expect to be slated for this but considering the state of last night's performance - watching England is now akin to watching a football minnow with the odd talented forward; for England read Montengro, for Jovetic, Sterling - perhaps it is time we tried something different.
For decades we have been crowbarring the biggest names from the biggest clubs into a rigid English team with little or no results. Last night, there was no England player who could start attacks, stretch player from deep, control midfield and spread the play. Wilshere is good for short, fast passes but has no range; Henderson is too slow, taking too many touches and simply doesn't have the vision for a play-maker.
Instead, I believe we should play Tom Huddlestone. Watch him play for Hull or remember him at Spurs - superb technique, huge array of passing, able to sit and control the game and then launch direct long-range balls. He could play next to Henderson and replicate the Liverpool axis which is doing so well. Can you think of another English player available who can do that job?
Yes, he does not play for a London club, but last season he was Hull's best player and they finished mid-table and got to the FA Cup final (his goal in the semi-final is an utter peach, too). Simply, with him in the side, the team would function with more fluidity and threat - just imagine him spraying those balls to Sterling's feet. And, realistically, if we did try him, would it be any worse than the previous, say, six England games?

Why Do People Care About Red Cards?
Ian M's mail to this morning's mailbox seemed to fixate on the fact that Wayne Rooney had been sent off twice while playing for England. Presumably this is a sentiment people have been harbouring since Alan Mullery's playing days (Mullery is to England red cards what Ronnie Radford is to FA Cup upsets, he simply plays the waiting game, or Hungry Hungry Hippos), but what is it about being sent off for England that makes people get such a bee in their bonnet?
We see these players week in and week out in the Premier League, we know who is and isn't susceptible to red mist, rash challenges or petulance, but stick them in the England shirt and some people expect saintly behaviour. It's like teachers who put up with a bit of horseplay or swearing, but as soon as a semi-important visitor is coming to the school, they turn really serious and remind you that you're representing the school so they expect best behaviour.
Do any other countries have this sort of double standard? Is Miroslav Klose's World Cup scoring record tarnished in any way because he was sent off (albeit harshly) in a group game in 2010? Is Zinedine Zidane's standing as one of the greatest players of his time diminished by his red cards? Or did German and French fans just accept that this is either part of the player or the game, and get on with their lives?
I never thought I'd be the one defending Wayne Rooney, or David Beckham, but as frustrating as their red cards were, it doesn't seem right to use them as a stick with which to repeatedly beat them, or to suggest that they are not suited to the role of England captain.

England Need A Part-Time Manager
Totally agree with Simon CFC on Hodgson being a lovely and much needed transition from the 'arry style boys club, but not someone who can now make us train on. He mentions Brendan Rodgers as an ideal, which seems an obvious choice given Liverpool's play and their players making up half our front six. He's contracted, but why can't he (or anyone) do both?
It's not like being a manager of a Premier League team means you're less aware of English players in other teams. And working on a daily basis with some players in your squad can only help, surely? Besides, what do club managers do in the international break anyway? Half their squad buggers off, they're left with the fringe, and I imagine it's just light training. Can't you just leave the coaches to do that? Similarly, what do the FA need with an England manager outside the international breaks? And surely you can appoint an England staff to do the manager's bidding scout-wise etc?
Mourinho said he considered managing England, but couldn't do without the day-to-day contact of club football. Keane (not suggesting him...) is doing a job at Villa whilst also in Ireland. Sir Alex picked up the reins for Scotland (albeit under tragic circumstances) for a summer tournament. Hell, the players do it - play for a club side, temporarily bugger off for international duty - why not the manager?
Any problems?

When Will We Turn On Sterling?
I'm sitting here, counting down the days until the English turn on Sterling.
It's inevitable. Exciting young talent, bright spark on an otherwise dim night, the saviour on whom's shoulders the Three Lions will gloriously ride the wings of change and, before too long, ultimate, sweet and magnificently satisfying glory.
The sort of glory Shearer was going to bring. The sort of glory Owen was going to bring. The sort of glory Lampard and Gerrard were going to bring. The sort of glory Rooney was going to bring.
Just deal with it, England fans: success hinges on more than one man being in or out of the team.
Don't try to prematurely retire Rooney. Don't try to prematurely champion Sterling. Drop the messiah complex.
Accept that at the moment you're without the cattle necessary to challenge the best nations in the world. It's a generational thing. Maybe in the near future a crop of skilled and driven kids will arrive on the scene at the same time and compliment each other. There needs to be more than just the one man.

Thanksgiving should be at the heart of our celebration
Think about how often in a day someone does something for you, however small. How often do you say thanks? Now think about how often God helps you in a day. Think about how much God has given you. How often do you say thanks to him? Thanksgiving is a celebration of the giver and the gift. We should celebrate often.
God is not against celebration!
He wants us to celebrate, but for the right reasons.

Now don't get me wrong, fall is always a beautiful time of the year. Some showcase super-brilliant foliage. Others are, well, more drab, with less splash and panache. I would have to personally rank this fall as being a little less spectacular on the scale of falls I've experienced.

This article responds to female genital mutilation with a look at human rights standards and a national education program on FGM (1996-2000).
This book focuses on the worldwide abuse of the female body, whether culturally sanctioned, aesthetically inspired, or politically motivated. There is also special attention paid to African women, colonial discourse and imperialist intervention in the name of addressing FGM in Africa.
An information material on the types of FGM practised in Ethiopia, its prevalence and severe forms found among both Ethiopian and Somali societies.
This book is relevant for those who care for women and girls who have had, or are at risk of having, female genital mutilation. It focuses on caring for both the physical and psychological needs of the vulnerable or suffering and maintains an understanding, holistic and objective approach to the current situation. It contains colour plates, illustrations, photos and graphs.
This chapter deals with immigration issues and asylum in the United States and the controversy over FGM.
This journal deals with intercultural ethics and female genital mutilation, as well as academic discussions of female genital mutilation.
This survey assesses the knowledge, attitudes and practices with regards to female genital mutilation (FGM) among gynaecologists in Flanders, Belgium. The survey revealed gaps in the knowledge of FGM and the provision of care by Flemish gynaecologists to women who had been mutilated.
The journal deals with strengthening evidence-based strategies for interventions to address harmful traditional practices in Africa. It highlights the need for effective engagements, making reference to specific country context – i.e. Nigeria – and the prevalence. Overall it focuses on evidentiary basis for action against FGM.
This study showcases the effects of FGM among Somalis both in Kenya and in Somalia, and how practices such as infibulations impact women's health. Furthermore, the authors discuss health facilities' ill equipment to support women suffering from complications of FGM.
Interest curtailing the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM) has increased in the past 20 years. Although the political and legal environment towards the practice is more hostile, this awareness has yet to translate itself to measurable changes in prevalence. At the local level activities are shifting from a clinical, health risk, model to an understanding of the phenomenon in its social context. Under patriarchal structures of social control of sexuality and fertility, women and girls are the primary social group to suffer from as well as to perpetuate the practice of FGM.

Winter Global Business Conference 2013
Tignes, France
Winter Global Business Conference 2013 in Tignes primarily aims at understanding the key issues for growth in shrinking markets. We are interested in different perspectives: different fields' perspectives, different levels of analysis (macro to micro), different industries, etc.
Shrinking markets can be observed from, at least, three perspectives: (1) macro perspective: market shrinkage as a result of crisis – therefore all industries and markets to a certain extent face the shrinking market today; (2) industry perspective: market shrinkage as a result of industry maturity – in mature environments it becomes increasingly challenging to achieve growth; (3) firm perspective: market shrinkage as a result of firm's bad choices.
Shrinking markets can be taken as given, thus seeing the market players (competitors, consumers, governments, etc) and needing to adjust to the new rules of the game. However, the question that arises is what can be done to achieve growth in spite of shrinking markets? What are some key issues that can help grow out of market problems?
This conference provides an opportunity for an interdisciplinary take on these issues. We are looking forward to diverse contributions aiming at excelling our knowledge on the key ideas about growing in shrinking markets.

Hi folks!
Just registered on here to ask for some help and advice!
My speedo on my Mk1 Focus 1.8 LX with the IB5 box threw in the towel. Pin 1 is at 12V and Pin 3 is at ground, and the diagnostic procedure sweeps the gauges correctly so I ordered a new Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).
Now, I'm sure this topic has been covered before many times as it seems to be a frequent problem and a pig of a job to do. I've managed to remove the retaining pin successfully and in theory the sensor should just pull out. But it wont. Mole grips, screwdrivers, twisting, levering, pulling from above, applying heat, you name it I've tried it, wont shift.
Now I'm left with a a little stub of plastic sticking out where the connector used to be and nothing left to pull on! So, looks like I'm going to be drilling it out. Has anyon ever managed to do this successfully without dumping a load of swarf and metal into the box? Anything I can do or avoid to increse my chances of success?
Thanks folks!

The 1st season's a bit shady, but stick with it as it does get better. If you like your vampires edgy and dangerous (this most definitely isn't Twilight) and your tv a bit saucy, then this should be right up your street. Watch it with an element of tongue in cheek as well. Thoroughly enjoyable supernatural thrills for adults with a dash of humour and bad language and, of course, blood.

Carbon price on par with dollar float: PM
PUBLISHED: 14 Jul 2011 13:12:12 | UPDATED: 15 Jul 2011 04:05:38PRINT EDITION: 14 Jul 2011
Prime Minister Julia Gillard has likened the importance of her carbon pricing scheme to the floating of the Australian dollar.
"Pricing carbon is this government's biggest reform yet," she told the National Press Club in Canberra on Thursday.
"The carbon price is our dollar float."
Floating of the currency in the early 1980s was the paradigm example, Ms Gillard said.
"The big enabling decision, the big change which sets the ball rolling for all the others.
"The big call for the future which demands courage at the time ... and which when we look back, no one would seek to undo."
Ms Gillard said she saw a great clean energy future for Australia.
"Within a few years, we'll be seeing big changes on the energy supply side, big changes in industrial production, changes among consumers and households as well," she said.
She cited examples from her carbon price sales tour around the country this week including a geothermal power at work in Brunswick, an inner suburb of Melbourne.
"A source of energy which we usually associate with hot rocks in the central desert is at work in a city we hardly think of as hot in July."
Ms Gillard said she had met some interesting people in recent days and heard "some interesting things".
"When you give Australians a chance, they give it to you pretty straight," she said.
"I love that about our country. I enjoy the scepticism and respect the scrutiny."
Ms Gillard reflected on the Rudd government's effort to address climate change and the difficulties around the long, drawn out debate.
"In the final weeks of 2009, the last parliament had its Maxwell Smart moment," she said.
"We missed it by that much."
No government, no political party or leader could claim to have got everything right, Ms Gillard said.
"The parliament, the people elected in 2010 have found the path to the clean energy future our country so badly needs."

(FootballStL) – The St. Louis Rams officially signed its newest receiver, Kenny Britt, to a contract on Monday. And now it looks like he'll be wearing the number of one of the franchise's all-time greats.
The troubled wide receiver will wear No. 81, previously worn by Tory "Big Game" Holt, according to multiple reports.
The news quickly spread through Twitter, and most of the feedback wasn't positive.

The program provides financial and technical assistance to constituencies in the region in meeting its special problems, to promote its economic development, and to establish a framework for joint federal-state-local efforts toward providing the basic facilities essential to its growth, attacking its common problems and meeting its common needs on a coordinated and concerted regional basis.
New York State is one of the four states in the federally-defined Northern Border region that includes parts of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
Under the program the States are responsible for recommending projects for NBRC assistance in one of the following seven categories:
The Northern Border region of New York State contains the following fourteen counties: Cayuga, Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Herkimer, Fulton, Jefferson, Lewis, Madison, Oneida, Oswego, St. Lawrence, Seneca.

The NBRC grant solicitation cycle begins in the spring and is completed with project application approval at the end of the Federal Fiscal Year in September. Area development program grant awards provide matching funds for projects in or affecting New York's fourteen Northern Border counties. Priority is given to projects that will expand transportation infrastructure, build basic water and wastewater systems, enhance telecommunications access or increase work force and economic development activities.
Funding is available for up to $250,000 per project. The maximum NRBC contribution for a project or activity to be carried out in these counties is 80%.
FY 2012 New York State NBRC Projects
Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena - $123,500
The Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena in Saint Lawrence will construct a new rail spur from the CSX Transportation's St. Lawrence Subdivision to serve an existing industrial park in a remote area of Northern New York. The project will provide efficient and environmentally-friendly alternative transportation modes for the industrial park and surrounding area. This will allow a recent startup producer of alternative, domestic fuels (wood pellets) and an established supplier of wood fiber to succeed in the national and global marketplace, while reducing dependence on overseas fuels. This projects anticipates that it can create seven new jobs and retain of 119 more.
The Wild Center – $158,120
The Wild Center and its partner, the Paul Smith's College Visitor Interpretive Center in Franklin County, will implement the Northern New York Maple Project. This initiative will promote job growth through resource conservation and tourism. In cooperation with the Cornell Sugar Maple Research and Extension Program, this project will provide hands on training to current and potential maple producers; create and maintain two public, energy efficient maple sugaring demonstration sites at destination sites; raise community awareness of the potential for maple sugaring as a renewed part of a sustainable, local, working forest-based economy; provide stimulus, support, and resources for tappers and new entrepreneurs in northern New York's Maple industry; educate the economic development sector by demonstrating the energy efficient technologies available in the maple industry today; and generate self-sustaining income and employment for this region. This project anticipates direct and indirect creation of 40 new jobs for the region.
FY 2011 New York State NBRC Projects
Clayton Local Development Corporation - $250,000
Located in the Thousand Islands along the Canadian border, the Village of Clayton community relies heavily on tourism. While the community boasts many unique shops, parks, eateries, and recreational opportunities, the area currently lacks adequate hotel accommodations. This funding will support the installation of basic public utilities to develop a remediated brownfield site on the St. Lawrence River. The existing public utilities were required to be removed during site remediation activities. The town and the development corporation have secured a funding commitment from a corporation with success in developing the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel in Appalachian New York. The proposed development will include a $20 million 100-room hotel, creating an estimated 80 full-time jobs.
Lewis County Development Corporation - $95,320
The Lewis County Development Corporation recently purchased an old mill site from a private owner and is looking for redevelopment possibilities for the site. The mill site used to house a pulp and paper mill that employed 286 people, but closed in 2000. A local private entity, Aries Chemical Inc., is looking to expand its operations into a warehouse located on the site if rail service is available. This project will rehabilitate a railway spur located in the Village of Lyons Falls and allow for the expansion of Aries Chemical Inc.

Belarus Reverses Course on Giving up Bomb-Grade Uranium
Belarus on Friday declared it would suspend an agreement to surrender all of its weapon-usable uranium in response to new economic penalties imposed by the United States, Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported (see GSN, Dec. 1, 2010).
The bilateral agreement was unveiled last December while U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with her Belarusian counterpart in Kazakhstan.
While Belarus was left with a number of nuclear weapons after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Minsk swore it would not use them and the warheads were sent back to Russia in the 1990s.
Roughly 440 pounds of weapon-ready fissile material remained behind in the Eastern European nation, according to DPA. The James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies last year projected the nation retained between 375 and 815 pounds of highly enriched uranium, including no less than 90 pounds of material enriched to bomb-grade levels of around 90 percent.
The material by next year was to be sent to Russia for conversion to a more proliferation-resistant form of uranium, according to previous reports. The Obama administration pledged to "provide technical and financial assistance to support the completion of this effort as expeditiously as possible."
Instead, Minsk is "freezing" cooperation on the nuclear material divestment deal in retaliation for new U.S. trade sanctions, which the Belarusian government asserted were "unfounded ... and illegal," the nation's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
"Belarus will as it has in the past provide physical security to these nuclear materials in full accordance with international standards,"Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Savnik told Interfax.
The State Department earlier this month announced that four government-operated Belarusian firms were now prohibited from operating in the United States and encouraged other nations to similarly target the companies with sanctions. The department said the sanctions were a consequence of ongoing political repression in Belarus (Deutsche Presse-Agentur/Monsters and Critics, Aug. 19).

It's an emotionally satisfying answer if the fault doesn't lie with the poor but with wealthy policymakers and corporate executives.
The cause seems kind of obvious to me. The failure to delay gratification contributes to poverty, poor health, teenage pregnancy, poor academic performance, and crime. No amount of bike lanes, community gardens, free condoms, or even education or job training is going to solve that. It needs to be taught, preferably early. It's why I favor universal quality child care. Not because 3-year olds need to learn the alphabet but because there really is such a thing as poor parenting. Behavioral training is important.

Today I wanted to talk about taking your pram all terrain. Now I don't mean pushing it through sand dunes or anything crazy. Let's keep it real. Sometimes a simple walk at the park can be difficult with the wrong pram. Heavy four wheeled prams can limit your options for outdoor activities and who wants that.
Thankfully, its 2014 and we have come a long way. One of the better leaps in technology for prams has been this little beauty -
The three wheel pram. Heaven. Notice the large wheels which mean you can take the pram on most terrains no problem. Now the pram pictured in a Valco Tri Pram which actually has air filled tyres which provides suspension ensuring bubs has a smooth ride.
Weight is another plus with this one. It's super light. No one needs to be pushing heavy prams these days, especially with options like the Valco readily available and affordable.
Jogging is made so much easier with these types of prams. Gone are the days of trying to job with a heavy and cumbersome pram. Having to choose your route carefully to avoid rough surfaces and bundling the kids in blankets so they didnt get jostled around to much. Sounds hideously difficult and unnecessary. Like running with a shopping cart.
Now days, many a mum and bub can be seen jogging around neighborhoods all over the world thanks to the three wheel prams.
Jogging isn't the only benefit an all terrain pram offers. Even a walk to the local park in made easier. Ever tried to wheel a pram on thick grass? It's not easy.
A friend of mine runs a candle making business and often has a stall at our local markets. (Click here to check out some great ideas on how to run a market stall)
Once a month hoards of people descend on our local park looking for something they just cant get at the mall. There is a lot of cool stuff there but I am getting off topic! The point is that the markets are held on a big grassed area which must be a nightmare for people with four wheeled prams. No thanks.
Market days, sports events, dirt walking tracks in national parks. None of these needs to be off limits to your and your bub. As long as you choose the right pram for the terrain. Now the Valco is a good start but there are literally hundreds of options out there. Have a think about what type of surfaces you spend time walking on and consider that carefully when choosing your pram.

Landscape / Mt Eden Sunset in Auckland, NZ
« on: July 24, 2013, 11:58:37 PM »Some of you living the big cities might get amazed by the lack of tall building here, but that's all we have, country style!
16mm (21mm equivalent), f11, 1/20s
It's actually a 2 shot HDR, one for top half sky, another for the landscape. I've used a 2-stop soft GND but it's too weak to darken the sky to an acceptable level.
Need some C&C please, I'm pretty new to landscape photography. Thanks!

AICAR induces Bax/Bak-dependent apoptosis through upregulation of the BH3-only proteins Bim and Noxa in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Get AccessAbstract
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AICA) riboside (AICAR) is a nucleoside analogue that is phosphorylated to 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide ribotide (ZMP), which acts as an AMP mimetic and activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). It has been recently described that AICAR triggers apoptosis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells, and its mechanism of action is independent of AMPK as well as p53. AICAR-mediated upregulation of the BH3-only proteins BIM and NOXA correlates with apoptosis induction in CLL cells. Here we propose mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) as a useful model to analyze the mechanism of AICAR-induced apoptosis. ZMP formation was required for AICAR-induced apoptosis, though direct Ampk activation with A-769662 failed to induce apoptosis in MEFs. AICAR potently induced apoptosis in Ampkα1 −/− /α2 −/− MEFs, demonstrating an Ampk-independent mechanism of cell death activation. In addition, AICAR acts independently of p53, as MEFs lacking p53 also underwent apoptosis normally. Notably, MEFs lacking Bax and Bak were completely resistant to AICAR-induced apoptosis, confirming the involvement of the mitochondrial pathway in its mechanism of action. Apoptosis was preceded by ZMP-dependent but Ampk-independent modulation of the mRNA levels of different Bcl-2 family members, including Noxa, Bim and Bcl-2. Bim protein levels were accumulated upon AICAR treatment of MEFs, suggesting its role in the apoptotic process. Strikingly, MEFs lacking both Bim and Noxa displayed high resistance to AICAR. These findings support the notion that MEFs are a useful system to further dissect the mechanism of AICAR-induced apoptosis.

Matsuno, Kyoto
Japan 605-0016
Tel: 81 75 561 2786
Concierge.com's insider take:
A family-run restaurant near the Minamiza Kabuki Theatre, Matsuno raises eel cuisine to high art. Though the menu includes a smattering of other offerings, ignore them and order one of the set meals that includes charcoal-grilled eel served over rice, and a bowl of a delicate clear broth that contains the mildly flavored liver (you can slurp the broth and skip the liver if you're squeamish). Mrs. Matsuno, if she's on the premises, is a gracious hostess who speaks English and will teach you the finer points of eel cuisine. Already an aficionado? She may suggest two unusual house specialties: shirayaki, eel cooked and served with a lighter sauce and wasabi; and hiremaki, skewered, broiled eel fins wrapped around gobo (burdock root).
Open Mondays through Wednesdays and Fridays through Sundays noon to 9 pm.

I was interviewed some time ago by the North Carolina Museum of History concerning the writing of this trilogy.
This podcast is highly recommended
"Science currently holds that time travel is an impossibility, but readers of Down the Sky, thefinal volume of Colonel Pat Lang's Strike the Tent trilogy will question that assertion. Code-named "Hannibal," Confederate penetration agent Claude Devereux is firmly lodged in the upper echelons of the Federal war machine. Now a Brigadier General of the Union forces with the new Congressional Medal of Honor on his chest, Major Devereux of the Confederate Secret Service knows time is running out. His minders in Richmond may no longer trust him, his personal life is a shambles, and Union spy-catcher Lafayette Baker is determined to bring him down. Only his peculiar, personal friendship with President Lincoln holds his enemies at bay.

Rate Dr. Paul K. Ky
Dr. Paul K. Ky's Ratings
Very good doctor who truly cares about his patients and does his very best to help alleviate the chronic pain my husband suffers with. Whenever Dr. Ky does a medical procedure he is so good to me to explain everything, answer my questions and is very patient and understanding of my concerns for my husband.

I really appreciate Dr. Ky and his staff. Dr. Ky really cares about his patients. He has been working with me on my back condition and has explained everything to me so that I understand what treatment is needed and what he is going to do. He has really helped my back. After I had the MILD surgery both him and his Nurse called to check on me to see how I was doing. When I have called to ask questions they have been friendly and efficient. His entire staff is caring and helpful. Although his office is small and may be crowded I have never had to wait a long time. Mike Bitner

Unlike those recent comments, I actually had a good experience Dr. Ky and his friendly staff on my first visit. I didn't have to wait long at all. While there were some patients in the waiting room who complained of a long wait time, it's because they busy filling out all the paperworks. All the ones who had their paperworks done seem to be seen rather quickly.
Dr Ky was quite thorough in my initial visit. He spent around 40 minutes with me answering my questions with a full physical. I've since seen him in follow up and he thoroughly went over the MRI of my back. He also presented the various options for treatment. And, he did it in plain English. So far I really like this doctor. I think he's the most thorough doctor I have ever had so far. I'm also going to bring my to see him for her neck pain.

Dr. Ky has changed my life forever. Both, my mother and I have similar debilitating issues. She was referred to Dr. Ky first and was so impressed by him that I thought I should try him too. I am so grateful that I did. I have been in pain for the past 20 years. I was becoming hopeless that I would ever improve and freighted of what my future had to offer when I watched how bad my mom had become. Dr. Ky has given me back by life. Slowly but surely, he has worked on my issues and improved my quality of life immensely. All without throwing pain pills at the issue. On top of it all, Dr. Ky's compassion is unmatched. He cares so much for his patients and truly wants to help. He is kind and explains things so clearly and with great detail. The entire staff is wonderful, friendly and caring. They make me feel like family. The office is small and always full, but receiving care from Dr. Ky and his staff is worth any amount of wait, not that I've ever had to wait a unreasonable amount of time. I would like to thank Dr. Ky, from the bottom of my heart, for improving my (and my mother's) quality of life and for giving us hope again. A truly special man....
Thank you,
Alisa Wright

Dr. Ky is the best doctor I have ever had the pleasure of being treated by. He's a very smart doctor and his staff is top notch. Dr. Ky is truly concerned with my pain and will do whatever it takes to keep me out of pain. Dr. Ky's practice is not a pill mill that just throws medication at you. Sure he will provide medication if it is needed but he will also explore many other option in order to keep you comfortable. He has changed my life for the better and I am forever in debt to him. Thank you Dr. Ky!!

I was sent to this doc by my do, I walked in and felt like I walked into the circus.The place was busy and that's great but when they finally started to see me the nurse didn't introduce herself. She then asked me if I looked the doc up online. When I told her no she went on to tell me how great he is as she pointed at a wall with awards and credentials and how he went to John Hopkins and I think that is great for him.I just felt like she was trying to sell his care to me like a car salesman. I finally made it to a exam room were his staff entered some of my info in computer mind you the exam room door was open the whole time they entered my info and that exam room is right off the waiting room. The staff member checked his text message while collecting my info not to professional if you ask me. He left the room telling me the doc would be in shortly. As I sat there waiting with the door open I was able to listen to office staff discuss patients records as well as the doc discussing a patients diagnosis to someone on the other end of the phone.That is fine until the patients first and last name and diagnosis is said out load at front desk with a full waiting room.I worked in healthcare for seven years and last I checked that is against HIPPA patient privacy act. I was then brought my co pay amount due of $150 due then no payments. I personally felt this office was very unprofessional that is my opinion .This doc may be great at what he does but do your homework . I just wasn't feeling it.

I am very thankful for being referred to Dr. Ky. He is a great doctor with an endless amount of experience in his field. I am particularly grateful for the Kyphoplasty procedure he performed on 6 (six) of my vertebrae. The procedure was a little weird to me at first, but I soon realized that it worked. It relieved a significant amount of pain on my back in areas that had hurt me for years. I wish that insurance was able to pay for his enspire procedure on my lower back to make it feel better also.

Town (pop., 2000: 73,213), capital of Tlaxcala state, Mexico. It is located in a mountainous region at the foot of La Malinche volcano. Settled by a Nahua people around the 14th century, it vied for power in the 15th–16th century with the Aztec city of Tenochtitlán (modern Mexico City). Though the inhabitants initially opposed Hernán Cortés, they later became his allies and aided him in his defeat of Azetec leader Montezuma II. It was a refuge for the Spaniards when they were driven out of Tenochtitlán in 1520. Cortés established the first Christian church (San Francisco) in the Americas there in 1521. The sanctuary of Our Lady of Ocotlán and archaeological ruins are nearby.

The city of Tlaxcala (in full, Tlaxcala de Xicoténcatl) is the capital and chief center of population of the Mexican state of Tlaxcala. The city is located at in the south-central portion of the state. At the census of 2005 the city had a population of 15,777 inhabitants and was by far the smallest state capital in Mexico. It is only the tenth-largest city in the state of Tlaxcala. The city is the municipal seat of its surrounding municipality of Tlaxcala, which had a population of 83,748. The municipality has an area of 41.61 km² (16.066 sq mi) and includes several other communities, the largest of which are Ocotlán, Santa María Acuitlapilco, and San Gabriel Cuauhtla. The city of Tlaxcala is not even the largest in its own municipality, as Ocotlán, with a population of 22,082 is larger than Tlaxcala.
The city, though originally settled by native peoples, was officially "founded" in 1520 by Hernán Cortés – with whom they had an alliance against their former Aztec oppressors.

Beyonce unveiled a drastic new hairdo on August 7, as she stunned fans with a series of photos on Instagram. Are YOU a fan of Beyonce's new pixie cut?
Beyonce, who is known for her trademark honey-colored tresses, has ditched her long hair for an edgier short pixie cut.
Beyonce Hair — Singer Cuts It All Off: Debuts New Pixie Cut On Instagram
To show off her new look, Queen Bey, 31, posted photos on Instagram on August 7, showing herself gazing in a mirror and feeling the back of her head where her long hair used to be.
While we absolutely love the new do, we're completely shocked because Beyonce has been a diehard weave wearer for years. She likely thought long and hard about making this huge decision.
Since she blasted onto the music scene with Destiny's Child, Beyonce has rarely sported anything other than big, bouffant looks.
Beyonce: Taking Safety Precautions After Fan Accident?
Interestingly, the new hairdo comes just two weeks after her blond tresses got tangled in the blades of a fan during a performance of "Halo" in Montreal on July 22. Perhaps she's taking some bizarre safety precautions!
Other stars who have rocked the pixie cut in the past include Rihanna, Michelle Williams and Anne Hathaway.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Do you like Beyonce's new pixie cut? Do you love or loathe?
