Information architecture (IA) is the art of expressing a model or concept of information used in activities that require explicit details of complex systems. Among these activities are library systems, Content Management Systems, web development, user interactions, database development, programming, technical writing, enterprise architecture, and critical system software design. Information architecture has somewhat different meanings in these different branches of IS or IT architecture. Most definitions have common qualities: a structural design of shared environments, methods of organizing and labeling websites, intranets, and online communities, and ways of bringing the principles of design and architecture to the digital landscape.

Dog is my co-pilot and other bad ideas
By Joe Wilkes
Living in Los Angeles, there's usually ample time to enjoy the bumper stickers of your fellow commuters. I've seen the "Dog Is My Co-Pilot" one a number of times. But the other day when I was passing the car it was attached to, I noticed that the bumper sticker was more of a warning than a joke. A retriever-sized mutt was sitting in the driver's lap with his head out the window enjoying what breeze could be enjoyed in the stop-and-go traffic. Maybe the dog was helping the driver prepare for a merge, but it didn't seem like the ideal driving scenario, and while I couldn't see, I'm almost certain the dog's paws weren't at ten and two.
The American Automobile Association recently released a survey that said 56 percent of pet owners drove with their pets at least once a month but only 16 percent used any type of restraint, such as a harness or a crate. Drive-time activities with the pets included:
- Petting: 52 percent
- Restraining pet while braking: 23 percent
- Keeping the pet out of the front seat: 19 percent
- Reaching into the backseat for pet: 18 percent
- Allowing the dog in the driver's lap: 17 percent
- Feeding the dog: 17 percent
Now growing up in the 1970s, I'm not sure I even remember whether any of our cars had seat belts in the back. If they did, they were stuffed far enough into the cushions, so no one had to endure the discomfort of sitting on top of one. At any given time, you could find two or more small children and a dog roaming free in the back of my parents' station wagon. Somehow no one was injured, but today my parents, along with most of their generation, would probably be in jail. Now, when you look at state-of-the-art car seats (legally mandated in most states), most children are as ready to take part in a shuttle launch as a trip to the store.
Dogs, however, do not seem to enjoy the same safety requirements as children. As the AAA survey (and my own randomly observed anecdotal evidence) can attest, the vast majority of dogs are not protected from any kind of crash or sudden traffic event like slamming on the brakes. Man's best friend can turn from pet to projectile in a matter of milliseconds, posing a danger not only to the pet but to the other passengers in the vehicle. As nimble as your dog is when catching a tennis ball in midair, in a car he has no footing and no means of holding on to anything and is purely at the mercy of gravity and momentum.
And as dangerous as it is for dogs as passengers, they are actually pretty lousy co-pilots and largely do more harm than good when "assisting" the driver. Dogs rarely have any relevant experience operating heavy machinery and while owners talk about how they smile when they stick their heads out the window, that just may be the G-forces they're seeing. Unrestrained dogs lead to distracted driving, one of the leading causes of accidents. Even if it's only a teacup Yorkie, if it's on your shoulder, your driving is going to be impaired.
So don't stop taking your dog to the beach or the park or the vet, but do look into a safe crate. It'll keep your pet safe, you safe, and the rest of us on the road safe. Watch Cesar's tips on what to look for in a crate.
What has been your experience using a crate to transport your dog in your car? Tell us all about it in the comments.

**Coordinators will provide estimates and actuals for buyer's reference as they are available, per bag if needed. However one person in the split must take on the "whole bag" responsibility. This means one buyer will be responsible for (a) payment of the full bag (b) pick up/distribution of the full bag.
[B]As the close of the buy nears splits may be opened up on a limited basis to help close up the order. Typically the splits will be restricted per person (rules to be laid out at that time)
Special notes about this order: 1. This buy will not ship until summer time or so (and until we have 3-4 full pallets) 2. New payment methods are listed (we are no longer using paypal) 3. Order deliver TBD - but will be in Syracuse, NY area

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
Today's cops may still gather over a case of cold beer, but they also gather online using social networking tools such as MySpace and Facebook. Which is a problem for agencies and officers because what many users of social networks don't realize before its too late is that anything they do or say or write on these sites is done so in full view of the public.

Definition of Fees
Definition of Fees
Tuition is established to support the administrative and instructional costs of each OUS institution. There are three basic tuition and fee structures at OUS institutions: the regular academic year, summer session, and continuing education.
Educational Delivery Fee
The Educational Delivery fee is assessed each term to students enrolled in only Online/Onsite courses. The "Educational Delivery Fee" is set on a sliding per credit scale, as a reflection of economies of scale, to provide funding necessary for the delivery of courses, to enhance technology leveraging of instruction, to assist and expand academic support services to students who are not on campus.
Application for Admission Fee
Currently no application fee is required for students seeking formal admission to Eastern Oregon University.
Admission to the university does not guarantee admission to a program. To learn program specific admission requirements, please contact the school of interest of see an advisor for additional information.
Building Fee
A building fee is assessed each term to all students registered for "On-Campus" courses. This fee is established by legislative statute and is intended to fund construction projects associated with student involvement throughout the Oregon University System.
Incidental Fee
The incidental fee is assessed each term to all students taking "On-Campus" courses. This fee supports institutional student programs that are beyond the academic mission of the institution. Funds generated by incidental fees are used to fund student union operations, educational, cultural, and student governmental activities, and athletics. Incidental Fees are governed by a committee, comprised of student body officers, students, faculty, staff, and advisors.
Health Service Fee
The Health Service Fee is a mandatory fee that provides student access to the Student Health and Counseling Centers. This fee is assessed each term to students enrolled in a total of at least 6 credits and one or more of these credits is an "On-Campus" course. Information regarding the services provided at the Student Health and Counseling Centers can be found on the Student Health Center webpage at https://www.eou.edu/health/ and the Counseling Center webpage at http:/www.eou.edu/counsel/
Health Insurance Fee
Beginning Fall 2012, Eastern Oregon University will offer a voluntary student health insurance plan. To be eligible to enroll in the voluntary student health insurance plan you must be taking at least 6 credits of on-campus classes (online credits do not count towards student health insurance eligibility). More details regarding rates and the enrollment process will be coming soon.
Hard-waiver Mandatory Student Health Insurance Plan (International)
All international students enrolled at Eastern Oregon University are required to purchase the International Student Health Insurance. In certain circumstances, International Student Health Insurance may be waived upon proof of a comparable student health insurance plan. More details regarding rates and the waiver process will be available soon.
Matriculation Fee
The Matriculation Fee is a one time fee charged to all newly admitted, degree seeking students to cover the costs associated with admissions, student orientation, transcripts, web, and other services associated with the enrollment of freshmen and transfer students.

For the triumphant ode to Nelson Mandela, "Mandela", CyHi enlists newcomers Well$ (who we recently featured) and Reason. How do they do alongside CyHi? The G.O.O.D. rapper chosen to release this remix, very appropriately, on Mandela's birthday today. Nelson Mandela passed away in December.

4 Ways to Take Advantage of LinkedIn's Changes
Being in front of your audience has always been important to business leaders and their companies. For the past few years now, LinkedIn has been seen as the premier network for professionals to connect with one another to network, share ideas, and see what their competition is doing. Through a series of upgrades to the network, LinkedIn has positioned itself to continue to be a great place for you to be. One often overlooked advantage of LinkedIn as a social network is the ability for companies to introduce their products and services, as well as the company, to a broad audience through the use of "Company Pages."
In one of our previous posts, Are You and Your Company LinkedIn?, we discussed some of the benefits of a company page. Here are 4 tips based on LinkedIn's new updates that can help you optimize your company page:
- Ensure you meet the requirements for a company page – LinkedIn has specific requirements for creating a company page. The most important of these is being listed as a current employee of the company on your personal profile and having an email address with your company's unique domain name (e.g. @powerteninc.com).
- Complete your company profile – Often we view the company profile is basic housekeeping and it falls down to the bottom of the to-do list, this is not the time to be brief. Share as much as you can about your company, being careful to use accurate information about the company including website information, email addresses, and statistics. A brief scan of the company profile will help determine whether your audience will engage or move on.
- Use a banner graphic for the page – LinkedIn has followed Facebook with the inclusion of a banner image opportunity for your company page. This will be the first thing a visitor will see, so tie the banner in with your website and social branding to make it easier for your company to be recognized. Images should be under 2MB in size and need to fit a 646px X 220px space; failure to fit these dimensions will result in your banner being cut off.
- Add "Products and Services" that you provide – LinkedIn has placed links to your "Products and Services" prominently in a sidebar on the company page. Take advantage of this great marketing tool that allows product information, website links, contacts, video, recommendations, and much more. Take advantage of this opportunity for showing off what you specifically have to offer.
The changes made for company pages offer great opportunity to engage with your intended audience in a targeted and far more relevant way. You can offer content and optimized information to attract more followers while providing finely customized information.
LinkedIn is still making tweaks and changes to the social network based on the experience of others using features that combine some of the best parts of Facebook and Twitter. The big difference is that LinkedIn has a distinct business focus that could make this especially valuable for B2Bs who may not have had the success on Facebook as their B2C counterparts.

Mercedes Kaestner-Varnado is a professional wrestler currently working for WWE in their developmental promotion, NXT Wrestling. She appears as Sasha Banks.
Before joining WWE in August 2012, Kaestner-Varnado appeared as Mercedes KV numerous independent promotions including New England Championship Wrestling, Chaotic Wrestling, Premier Wrestling Federation Northeast, Powerhouse Wrestling and NWA on Fire.
Expect to see a new "Bossy" face in the Divas Division.
WWE NXT Diva Sasha Banks is the current front-runner to be promoted to WWE's main roster. Word going around Thursday's WWE NXT tapings at Full Sail University is that company officials are looking to call up the 22-year-old on her own, and soon.
Sasha is actually considered ready for the main roster from a performance standpoint, but WWE's directive for promoting talent to the main roster is to only do so when a solid television role is in place.
Donning ridiculous silver sunglasses and a bedazzled leather jacket, the 22-year-old calls herself "The Boss of NXT." It's this character that has shown more of her personality than fans have seen before. As part of "The Beautiful Fierce Females" with Summer Rae and Charlotte, she was given glitz to go along with added direction (the group disbanded in July).
The feisty, fast and talented wrestler is destined to not only make her way to Raw and SmackDown, but to thrive as one of the best mat technicians in the division. She will likely struggle to become the top Diva as long as the likes of Paige and AJ Lee are around, though.
Alongside NXT Divas Champion Charlotte, Sasha recently performed at what was once WWE's central venue, Madison Square Garden, against Nikki Bella and Natalya. Mixing it up with the main roster is often a sign of a prospect getting a call-up in the near future.

@Vincenzo -- A good compromise is a router that receives a fiber optic, high speed signal but connects with other computers through WiFi connections. While the speed of WiFi isn't quite up to that of pure fiber optics, it is usually more than fast enough.
But there's something to keep in mind. Those WiFi connections seem to get "confused" from time to time and boot computers off the network. That means the routers have to be reset every now and again.
The most reliable connection is through traditional wires hooking up to a router. For now, that is the setup that makes the most sense for a lot of businesses.

The former Los Angeles Lakers player Vlade Divac was thrilled to meet with the Swiss Guard to discuss sports and learn about their work at the Vatican. "I was very excited to be here, and they have a basketball team here with very tall people," the 7-foot, 1-inch Divac joked in the Swiss Guard's barracks. dfwcatholic.org
What do you consider a bigger move personally, getting Shaq or Kobe?: Jerry West: "Trading [Vlade Divac] was difficult, and particularly when you're trading someone of his caliber — a starting center — for a 17-year-old kid who couldn't even sign a contract. But we were lucky because I had a great working relationship with Arn Tellem … who used to be Kobe's agent. Arn was very instrumental in us being able to get him, way down the draft list. Charlotte got a very good player in Vlade Divac, and they played well with him, but at the end of the day we got the prize we wanted. … We got really lucky and that's what sometimes you need." Sports Radio Interviews
The fact is Kahn and Adelman love the thought of Gasol in their offense. Adelman's recipe for success in Sacramento was due in large part to Chris Webber and Vlade Divac. The Wolves look at Love and Gasol as comparable to that duo. Gasol is an excellent passer. Adelman loves big men who excel at that. A team source said Taylor is willing to go over the luxury tax for the 2013-14 season if the right deal presents itself. With a salary of nearly $20 million next year, Gasol fits that mold. 1500 ESPN
At 6-foot-11 and 235 pounds, he should have an easier adjustment than his predecessors. The position no longer has bruisers such as Shaquille O'Neal, Patrick Ewing or David Robinson. With the exception of Dwight Howard and Andrew Bynum, Bosh will face competitors who are mostly glorified power forwards. Bosh said the move is "over analyzed" because the evolution at center. "The game was different back then," he said. "The game changes every now and then. At that point, it was all about girth. You have to be big, Anthony Mason and Charles Oakley and Patrick Ewing and Vlade Divac. It's different now. The game is a lot faster. If you're big, we're going to run right by you. South Florida Sun-Sentinel
During the Olympics you have met with NBA commissioner David Stern in order to discuss the matter of flopping. How do you comment the new anti-flopping rule? Vlade Divac: "They started overdoing it, I think it was bad for basketball and it was a great decision to make basketball more clear". EuroHoops.net
Both Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol suggested that the FIBA rule for international play of a warning for the first flop and then a technical foul for the next (meaning two free throws and possession for the opponent) was better. "I'd love to see it have an impact on the game itself," Bryant said. "I think in international play a technical foul is the penalty for it. Free throw and get the ball back, that sort of thing. But I like the rule. Shameless flopping is just a chump move. We're familiar with it because Vlade (Divac) kind of pioneered it in a playoff series with Shaq (O'Neal). And it worked pretty well for him." Orange County Register
The year was 2005, and he was, at 36, a still-reasonably-productive Los Angeles Lakers center in his 16th NBA season. Life was, for the most part, very good. He was playing basketball in the city he loved alongside the legendary Shaquille O'Neal and the soon-to-be-legendary Kobe Bryant, eating at the finest restaurants, staying in luxury hotels. Just happy, happy, happy ... Then, The Moment. "I came home from a road trip," he says. "No different from any other road trip I'd been on. It was 2 a.m., and I check on my kids, who are sleeping. And I see a man sleeping in one of the beds. It was my older son [Luka], and it really hit me. I thought to myself, 'Wow, I missed all of his childhood.'" SI.com
That's why, as the man leading his nation's Olympic charge, the words, "We must win ..." never emerge from Divac's lips. Sure, he craves triumphs, just as the United States does (he is a dual citizen, and owns a home in Los Angeles). But when Divac is asked about the victory-or- bust approach of certain nations, he cringes. "It's all about pride, and doing your best, and representing your country with honor," he says. "Yes, I will celebrate wins. But I will celebrate spirit even more." SI.com
The year was 1996. The Cavs needed "bigs" in the worst way and had two first-round picks — Nos. 12 and 20. They had settled on Wright State's Vitaly Potapenko at 12 and Zydrunas Ilgauskas at 20. In hindsight, Z was a much better player, but that's an argument for another day. Before the draft, the Los Angeles Lakers were calling teams in the lottery and inquiring about moving up. They found a taker in the then-Charlotte Hornets, who had the 13th overall pick, who agreed to deal their pick for Lakers center Vlade Divac. The Lakers offered the same deal to the Cavs, sources say, but were turned down. The Hornets drafted Lower Merion (Pa.) High School star Kobe Bryant and dealt him to the Lakers. News-Herald
Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond, Jerry Krause and Vlade Divac top the list of new nominees with league ties for the Hall of Fame, NBA.com learned Friday. They are among a field that joins returning headliner Reggie Miller as candidates for the Class of 2012 in Springfield, Mass. The group is, in many ways, a continuation of the '11 class. Chris Mullin was inducted in August, and now friends and Run TMC namemates Richmond and Hardaway are hoping to follow. The strength of the Divac nomination is his international impact and contribution to the worldwide growth of the game, much the same way Arvydas Sabonis was elected, with his NBA contributions secondary on the resume. NBA.com
Vlade Divac, the reigning president of the Serbian Olympic Committee and former player, has recently been in Slovenia visiting the basketball camp called Basketball Without Frontiers, and answering the questions at a press conference, said Slovenian Basketball Association had made the wrong move by hiring Bozidar Maljkovic for the post of men's national team coach. Divac suggested Maljkovic should not have been appointed in place of Jurij Zdovc, saying the latter would have been the only coach able to lead the Slovenian team to success. Blic
Boza Maljkovic, who is currently with the Slovenian national team in Kranjska Gora preparing for EuroBasket, has spoken for Zagreb-based newspaper Sportske novosti and on the occasion said he would yet speak out on Divac. - "Am I surprised? Well, I am and I'm not. I could have expected something like this from Divac – he is a cheat and a liar who is ignorant of the facts. Now he feels the need to defend my former player Zdovc from myself, and I am surely more of a friend of Zdovc's than Divac. He is also forgetting the fact I did not succeed Zdovc and that Memi Becirovic was in charge of Slovenia at the World Championships. Blic
The reporter who interviewed Divac was totally inconsiderate towards Divac and asked him a question in the morning, and Divac was still dazed as he usually gets up around 3 pm – that's why he was saying nonsense. I will most probably deal with the life and work of Divac more seriously after the EuroBasket is over because I don't have the time for that now," Maljkovic responded bitterly. Blic
What is one of your favorite pranks you instigated? Vlade Divac: "I had a lot of them but I'll pick one you'll really like – it's about Bobby Jackson. He lost some (card games) on a plane and, obviously, we were so close that we didn't want to take each others' money. But I told him, 'You don't need to pay me, but you need to be in your underwear and check-in to the hotel in New York.' So that happened. We were laughing and had a lot of fun — ask Bobby about that!" sacramentokings.tumblr.com
In 1989, the league welcomed Divac and Zarko Paspalj (Serbia), Petrovic (Croatia), Sasha Volkov (Ukraine) and Sarunas Marciulionis (Lithuania). Later, it was Hakeem Olajuwon, Tim Duncan, Rik Smits, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, among others. Opening-day rosters last season listed a record 84 international players, including NBA Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki (Germany). "Vlade was one of the pioneers," said Kim Bohuny, the NBA's senior vice president of international operations. "He was a dominant player who was funny, a real character. He invited Americans into his living room to learn about his country and himself. And he was very open about things." Sacramento Bee
He spent the past several days in Slovenia participating in Basketball Without Borders, the NBA-sponsored program that brings together youths from regions in conflict and attempts to foster peace and friendship. "Vlade was involved in the very beginning," Bohuny said of the first BWB held 10 years ago in Treviso, Italy. "I remember we were shooting an anti-drug commercial, and a spokesman from the United Nations said, 'The (Balkans) war is over. We've tried everything to get these kids together. We tried music; we tried soccer. Nothing works. But the thing that might do it is basketball. Vlade, would you ever be interested in something like this?' He said, 'Yes, absolutely.' Then I called Toni Kukoc, and right away he said, 'I'm in, too.' " The event this year not only was held in Slovenia, the first republic to split from Yugoslavia two decades ago, but for the first time, all six of the former republics were represented. "It was just an incredible week," Divac said. "The kids got along great, had good times. I think this is very important." Sacramento Bee
The Basketball Without Borders camp held this week in Ljubljana, Slovenia, served as a celebration for everyone involved. For the NBA and the international governing authority FIBA, it was a milestone achievement -- the 10th anniversary of an idea created from the former Yugoslavian wars. For Divac, it was something more personal. "What had happened was Vlade and I were in the [NBA's] New York offices on a Sunday, where he was shooting a commercial for the United Nations,'' recalled Kim Bohuny, the senior vice president of international basketball operations who essentially serves as the NBA's global ambassador. "A gentleman from the U.N. said, 'We don't know what to do -- we've tried music, we've tried soccer, and nothing is working to get our young children together. We think the only thing that could possibly work is basketball. Do you think the NBA would be interested in bringing together young children from all six countries?' " SI.com
Petrovic died at 28, in a 1993 car crash, before they could repair their relationship. So volatile were the times that Divac felt he had no choice but to stay away from Petrovic's funeral. "I feel sad that he's not here with us today,'' Divac said from Slovenia. "If he were alive, he would definitely be part of this. Part of what brought us together is the NBA, because we were too far from home.'' Several former NBA players who helped run the initial BWB camp -- including Rasho Nesterovic, Dragan Tarlac, Bruno Sundov and Dalibor Bagaric -- regathered in Slovenia this week with Divac. "Life is too short,'' Divac said. "What we try to send to the kids is a message that they should believe in themselves and respect each other, have tolerance for each other and have fun. Live the life in the right way.'' SI.com
Divac and Petrovic once were best friends, and you would think that would count for a lot/something. But there are certain parts of the world where nationalistic pride dissolves bonds once thought indelible. Not saying that's right or wrong, just how it is, and watch a soccer match between two former warring nations and see if you don't agree. I'll never forget the tears that welled in Divac's eyes when I asked about the troubles back home, knowing I never would understand them in the way he did. Las Vegas Review-Journal

What are the major applications of (set theoretic) forcing in model theory?
Rather than addressing the issue of whether an application is major or not, let me point out a recent one: See (The paper is downloadable from either of their webpages). What they do is work in the context of Abstract Elementary Classes, and provide a unified framework for several results on the number of models of size $\aleph_1$ in various infinitary logics. Their approach uses "$\mathbb P_{\mathrm{max}}$-techniques" to obtain the models through iterations of countable transitive models of enough set theory via embeddings given by the non-stationary ideal on $\omega_1$. The models so produced are typically ill-founded, as the technique is applied without the assumption of large cardinals. Similar constructions appear in the follow-up paper (Also available at their websites.) Actually, recent work on Abstract Elementary Classes provides a nice environment for non-trivial interactions between model theory and set theory, not just in the form of forcing techniques. See for example this post at the Forking, Forcing and back&Forthing blog. |
Applications of forcing in model theory, following directly from Robinson's 1970 work, are reviewed by T. Zhang, Model-theoretic Forcing and Its Applications. For a more recent application, the construction of finitely generated models, see A.O. Houcine, Forcing in Model Theory revisited. |

Dr. Richard French, DVM, dean of animal studies and Allerton Chair of Animal Health Sciences at Becker College, is urging pet owners to pursue healthy lifestyles in honor of May as National Pet Month. The bond between human owners and their pets may affect the health of both, he says, especially for health concerns associated with obesity.
"In the veterinary sciences field, we have observed that the epidemic of overweight humans is being mirrored in the population of pet cats and dogs," says French. "According to the US Food and Drug Administration's Center for Veterinary Medicine, obesity is just as threatening to the animals as it is to their owners."
Diseases being diagnosed in obese pets "are eerily similar to those reported for people," according to the center, citing an annual study by the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention. Obesity is a leading epidemic in the US for both humans and pets, with more than two-thirds (68.8 percent) of adults considered overweight or obese, and 53 percent of adult dogs and 55 percent of cats considered overweight or obese by their veterinarian, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. Veterinarians say this equates to more than 100 million pets.
"Pets are family members, and we often treat them as loved ones, with all the benefits of a great home life. But our pets are, sadly, falling victim to one of the biggest health issues facing their human owners," French says.
A large part of the problem with pet obesity is the "fat pet gap," the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention says, because many owners are unaware that their pets are overweight. In many cases, this correlates to obesity in people, too.
"When we see dogs that are overweight, we essentially should see a child that's at risk for excess weight," says French. "Think about the lifestyles of many of our young people, and then we can readily see how their pets are emulating those lifestyles. If a child is playing video games all day, the dog isn't outside playing. Rather, the pet is sitting at her feet or on the sofa. If the child is lying around snacking on high-calorie treats, chances are the dog is sharing in those same excess calories—and is also likely to get something from the dinner table."
The mid-year meeting addressed several regulatory matters affecting petfoods
Committees discussed key proposals such as a possible shift in the oversight of animal feeds
Public meetings invited comments and provided updates
It's the finishing touch that can meet both owner and pet needs.
The question is whether they provide additional benefit to the dog or cat
It's an "Intel inside" type of molecule -- but also a problem child

"Ultimately, in my best interest, I want Conor to win," Mendes told MMA Fighting. "This puts me right back in li read news >>
Chad Mendes won't exactly be draping an Irish flag around himself in July. But the top featherweight contenders does have somewhat of a rooting interest when it comes to Jose Aldo vs. Conor McGregor for the 145-pound title at UFC 189. Mendes has mixed feelings about the fight in general. He just knows how business works. And he thinks if McGregor wins and becomes champion there is an easier road for him back to a title shot. That being said, Mendes also wants a third crack at Aldo at some point, read news >>
Conor McGregor will have plenty on his plate against Jose Aldo in July. But another fight on his mind is one against another champion: Anthony Pettis. The rising UFC featherweight says that moving up to lightweight is highly likely down the road. And a bout there with Pettis, the titleholder, strikes his fancy. "I think it would be a great fight," McGregor said during a media scrum at UFC 183. "Definitely, 155 is in my future. Anthony is phenomenal on the feet. He's got good jiu-jitsu.

LAS VEGAS -- Jose Aldo has won 18 straight fights and is the best featherweight champion in the history of MMA. But for Conor McGregor? He's just another guy. "I don't feel his boxing is great," McGregor said Friday during the fan Q&A before UFC 183 weigh-ins. "His shot selection is poor. I would classify him as an intermediate at best.

What is a Sacred Intimate?
A Sacred Intimate is one who is aware of the connection between the body and the spirit.
A Sacred Intimate listens with his/her/hir heart on the deepest levels of your soul's need in the present moment.
A Sacred Intimate focuses his/her/hir intentions on your highest good in the Eternal Present Moment.
A Sacred Intimate is a professional.
I offer you my services as a Sacred Intimate.
There are those who consider Sacred Intimacy to be sex work, but that's a stereotype. Each session is unique and is not scripted. You can achieve deep intimacy with your clothes on. An amorous gaze can be extremely erotic. Each session is intentional and part of my job as a Sacred Intimate is to help you form a clear intention.
"I saw Rex for a Sacred Intimacy session recently. He was very skillful, very present and very
compassionate towards the things that I was dealing with, and was also creative at coming up with ideas
to help me to move through the issues that I was facing and to experience greater freedom and ease
within my mind and my body. His compassion and caring definitely shines through, as does his comfort
with engaging skillfully with challenges issues. I highly recommend Rex's work."

"Boring book!"
This book was very boring. It is just a long dissertation on tank movements. There is no character development. You do not learn anything about the men who did the fighting. You only learn about tank regiments and their movement.
"Great Book!!!"
I really enjoyed listening to this book! Nick's stories and narration are outstanding. You will not regret buying this audio book!
"When the NBA was fun to watch!"
I really enjoyed this book. I was in high school when Bird and Magic where in their prime. This book took me back to when the NBA was great intertainment! My only issue with the book is the narrator. His voice makes me tired. He just seems bored by the material. It didn't ruin the book for me but it didn't enhance it either. I am sure many people will not mind the narrator but I wish that they would have used someone else.
"Great Listen!!"
I really enjoyed Adams new audio book. It has a lot of great stories about his early life. If you like his podcast then buy the book today!!
"Very funny!"
I really enjoyed this audio book. The content and the narrator was awesome. I only wish it was longer. I listened to it twice.
"Great audiobook!"
This is an outstanding book about the life and assination of President Garfield. The narrator is also very good. You will not be disappointed with this audiobook!
"Outstanding audiobook!"
This is a great audiobook about Anne Frank and the people who helped her and her family while in hiding. The narrator is also great. You will not be disappointed if you get this audiobook!
"The best adventure story ever told!"
This book is outstanding! It is one of the best WWII stories I have have ever heard. Please get this audiobook. You will not be disappointed. The narrator is also great. There is a bonus interview with the two main characters at the end of the book that you also must hear.
"Great Book!"
This is another great book by Laura Hillenbrand! The story is almost to hard to believe. The things that Louis Zamperini and his fellow soldiers had to endure was really gut wrenching. The narration was also outstanding. Buy this book. You will not be disappointed.
I enjoyed the book. The writing style was not great but I liked the story. I did have a small issue with the narration. The narrator pronounced the word motorcycle in an unusual way. It almost sounded like meutercycle. It would not have bothered me much except that the word was used many times. It just seems odd to me that the producers would not have corrected him. But it was not a big deal, just a little odd.

PJ Newkirk was born into a bowling family.
His grandfather, Jerry Held, owns Monroe Sport Center.
His uncle, Shane, and mother, Sheri, have worked there since they were young.
"I don't think I had a chance," he said with a laugh. "I didn't have a choice. I've been bowling my whole life, since I was in diapers."
Newkirk joined his grandfather and uncle in the perfection club this season. He threw his first 300 game in December, then added another one recently in the Sportsman League at Sport Center.
"I never thought I would get one," he said.
The second 300 was special because his grandfather and Ian Saum, who coached Newkirk as a youth bowler, were there to see it.
"We were talking and goofing off, and they just kept falling," he said. "I got to the 10th frame and thought, 'Holy crap, I can shoot a 300.' I was shaking pretty bad on the 11th ball."
He had more confidence the second time.
"I was nervous, but it was a different kind of nervous," he said. "I thought, 'I've got this. It's just another ball.' I just threw it like I've always thrown it."
Newkirk, who carries a 208 average, shot a 756 series, just shy of his career-best 772.
The Sportsman League has become a hotbed for 300s.
Gary Pendleton and Rory Turner reached perfection in the league just minutes apart Tuesday night.
Pendleton rolled the second 300 of his career, then a few minutes later watched as Turner finished up the 17th of his career.
"It was a fun night for the league," Turner said. "The scores were real high."
Pendleton, 66, bowled his first perfect game 20 years ago.
"I quit bowling for 15 years, because of surgeries and arthritis," he said. "I started back last year. It is a little painful at times, but I'm holding up okay."
Pendleton bowls in three leagues, carrying averages ranging from 189 to 201. He followed his 300 with lines of 174 and 234 for a 708 series.
"I've been close the last four or five weeks with 8, 9, 10 in a row," he said. "I just could never get them all to fall. For a couple of frames, I was a little nervous. But once I got the first one in the 10th, all the pressure was off."
Turner felt exactly the same way.
"I get most nervous for the first one in the 10th," he said. "When I get that first one out of the way, I know I've got it."
Turner lives in Toledo, bowling in two leagues there, but he loves coming to Monroe for the Sportsman League on Tuesday nights.
"My father worked in Michigan and bowled at Sport Center for years," he said. "He got me into this league. I like the guys in the league."
The 31-year-old carries a 226 average in the Sportsman League. He shot a 762 series.
Barry Neimeth soared 221 pins over his 172 average with a 737 series in the Monroe VFW League at Monroe Sport Center Tuesday.
It was the first 700 of his career. He was 116 over with a 288 game.
Zach Parsons of Dansville (876 in Division 1) and Daniel Ludeman of Imlay City (871 in Division 2) are the singles leaders in the state tournament at Monroe Sport Center and Nortel Lanes.
Doubles leaders are Casey Donneworth and Matt Galanos of North Street (1,647 in Division 1) and Alberto Allen and Richard Vasquez of Rochester Hills (1,598 in Division 2).
Topping the team leader boards are Genesee Valley Center of Clio (4,140 in Division 1) and Westside Beer of Hastings (4,001 in Division 2).
Roma's Pizza won both rounds to wrap up the championship of the Labatt Blue City Keglers at Monroe Sport Center.
Youth bowlers at Flat Rock Lanes have been racking up career bests in recent weeks.
Ben Griffith, 15, rolled a 625 for his first 600 series in the High Schoolers League, Doug Stump, 14, also reached 600 for the first time with a 604 in the Seniors League and Tanner Jeska notched his first 500 series (506) and 200 game (209).
Kevin Robinson and Kyle Hunter both racked up 300 games in the Thursday Night Specials League at Sport Center.
Hunter's came as part of an 824 series. Robinson shot 789.
Tom Patrick shot a 778 series, which was 232 pins over his 182 average.
Monroe Sport Center won the fourth-round title in the Carleton Merchants League at Sport Center Wednesday.

Because of their lipophilic character, persistent organic pollutants are absorbed and transported to fatty tissues in fish and marine mammals. Uptake of POPs can occur through exposure from sediments in water or via consumption of smaller fish by predatory species (Geyer et al., 2000).
Farmed fish are exposed to these contaminants to the extent that they are present in feed (Hites et al., 2004a). Recently, Hites et al. (2004a) found that, perhaps because of their higher fat levels, some farmed salmon contain significantly higher concentrations of certain organochlorine contaminants, including PCBs, than wild-caught salmon. In addition, PCB concentrations in samples of commercial salmon feed purchased in Europe were higher than those in samples purchased in North and South America, suggesting that regional differences in the composition of feed contribute to regional differences in the PCB concentrations in farmed salmon. The mean wet weight concentration of PCBs in farmed salmon was 50 ng/g or below (Hites et al., 2004a), regardless of source, and thus below the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) action level of 2 ppm for PCBs in food. Using the US EPA risk assessment for PCB and cancer risk, Hites et al. (2004a) concluded that, given the PCB levels in the fish samples, a consumer's risk will not be increased if consumption is limited to no more than 1 meal per month of farmed salmon. Given the substantial regional differences found in PCB levels, however, these analyses demonstrated the importance for the consumer of knowing whether a fish was farmed or wild-caught and also its region of origin.
In a subsequent paper, the same group of investigators reported a quantitative analysis of competing risks and benefits associated with consuming farmed Atlantic and wild-caught Pacific salmon, for both cancer and noncancer end points (Foran et al., 2005b). Sixteen organic contaminants were considered. A benefit/cancer risk ratio was calculated for cancer using cancer slope factors developed by the US EPA (assuming that a 1×10−5 risk is acceptable) and a benefit/noncancer risk ratio using reference doses established by the US EPA. Foran et al. (2005b) concluded that neither farmed nor wild-caught salmon can be consumed in quantities that would provide 1 g/day of EPA/DHA while still maintaining an acceptable level of carcinogenic risk (1×10−5). In contrast, they determined that based on the benefit/noncarcinogenic risk ratio, wild-caught salmon could be consumed in amounts consistent with EPA/DHA intake levels recommended by the American Heart Association (see Chapter 2).
As expected, however, the results differed for farmed and wild-caught salmon. Consuming farmed salmon in amounts that provides 1 g/day of EPA/DHA would produce a cumulative cancer risk that is 24 times the acceptable cancer risk level. For wild-caught salmon, the cumulative cancer risk would be eight times the acceptable level. Both farmed and wild-caught

Basically Midori stays attached to his hand throughout the story, and problems arise regarding whether she can truly be "happy" in that state. Plus other girls are mysteriously attracted to Seiji, and hilarity usually ensues.
Manga becomes at times philosophical, other times touching, and sometimes just plain redundant, but it was a good read. Anime, I haven't watched yet, but the first few minutes of the first episode looked promising. Seiji's friend's voice is utterly annoying, though.
The anime compressess a lot of the story by leaving out much (though not all) of the redunancy and focusing on just Midori and Seiji's story. Many of the side plots, such as the American transfer student, are cut entirely. Other incidents are combined, so the first two meetings with Rin (at apartment, then the hot spring) are done as one episode, which strengthens both parts.
Today is always the most enjoyable day. Just ask Yotsuba.
all guys love fan service(who doesn't?)
we all love them.....
Ichigo 100%
almost the same with I"s
I think you're looking for a manga focusing on the lovelife of the male protagonist....
just like I"s
All humans will, without exception, eventually die.
After they die, the place they go is MU. (Nothingness)
your looking for university level which is kinda hard
i would deffintly reccomend Suzuka. although it takes place in high school it goes through it and after. it is a very good one and im sure you will like it because love hina is one of my favorites and so is suzuka.
Ichigo 100% i hear is alot like I's even though i've never read I's i love Ichigo 100%.

Words of Wisdom
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? . . . It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence liberates others.

"The crud" going around East Texas
It may have caught you, your family, or your co-workers.
Doctors say there's something going around right now when it comes to viruses, so be extra cautious.
It can only be described by those who have gotten it as "the crud."
"We're seeing a lot of diarrhea and nausea, vomiting, just the whole thing," said nurse practitioner Lisa Blackwelder.
Thomas White says it's affected him, and his whole circle of friends.
"Me, my wife caught it, then my fellow friends (in Corsicana) ... they've all caught it ... in the last two days," White said.
Blackwelder says if you catch it go easy on your stomach, and test what she calls ... the BRAT diet: bananas, rice, apples and toast, to sample the stomach and see how it's doing.
Avoid milk ,cheese and other dairy products and anything too sugary, and after that the best thing you can do is let "the crud" run its course.
"Typically, we don't recommend over-the-counter medications," Blackwelder said. "What they do is stop the virus from moving so it can't travel through the system and get over it. So just water, Gatorade 2 (lower calorie), Pedialyte and Tylenol or Motrin if you have a fever.
Blackwelder recommends being extra diligent about washing your hands right now and not sharing drinks with other people.
If you catch the bug and your symptoms persist for more than seven days, make sure to see your doctor.
