Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital Foundation Completes $500,000 Pink Ribbon Campaign
The Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital Foundation has successfully completed its Pink Ribbon Campaign to raise $500,000 to support the Breast Care Initiative at Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital.
Through the support of donations from the community, the SYVCH Foundation matched a $250,000 grant from The Wood-Claeyssens Foundation that enabled the purchase of a new state-of-the-art digital mammography system for the hospital.
The Pink Ribbon Campaign began in 2009 and was led by a committee that included co-chairs Tresha Sell and Gerry Shepherd (both directors of the SYVCH Foundation), Puck Erickson-Lohnas, Judy Canby and Pat Simon.
Gerry Shepherd, co-chair of Pink Ribbon Campaign and SYVCH Foundation board member; Wende Cappetta, vice-president of Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital; and Tresha Sell, co-chair of Pink Ribbon Campaign and vice-president of SYVCH Foundation.
"Digital Mammography has become the industry standard for breast mammography. We are fortunate to have the generous support of The Wood-Claeyssens Foundation and Valley residents," said Wende Cappetta, vice president at Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital. "We now provide our community with the highest quality of care in the prevention and early detection of breast cancer. We are extremely grateful for the community's support."
Digital mammography services and the new medical/surgical and advanced imaging wing were opened on March 2011 to serve patients.
Appointments for digital screening mammograms can be scheduled by contacting the SYVCH Radiology Department at (805) 686-3967.

Red Sox, Tigers hope to heat up in pivotal Game 5
Game 1 starters Lester, Sanchez gave up one run over 12 1/3 innings
DETROIT -- Going into Game 4 of the American League Championship Series, it looked like the tight, intense matchup between the Red Sox and Tigers would continue to be all about pitching.
Then again, it's October in southern Michigan and New England. The leaves are changing, the autumn winds are shifting, and with every inning of these games, the script is being ad-libbed by wily managers and played out in real time by actors with bats and gloves in their hands.
Wednesday at Comerica Park brought what has been an ALCS outlier: a five-run second-inning outburst by the Tigers, a 7-3 win, and a clean series slate: we're at 2-2 now, with a guarantee of a trip back to Fenway Park for at least a Game 6, and who knows what else to expect in a series that's still impossible to predict.
Thursday night's Game 5, which will be broadcast on FOX at 8 p.m. ET, will offer an anticipated rematch between Game 1's brilliant starters, Jon Lester of the Red Sox and Anibal Sanchez of the Tigers.
They combined to give up one run on six hits in 12 1/3 innings of Game 1, with 16 strikeouts. Sanchez didn't give up a hit and fanned 12. Lester wasn't shabby, either, giving up only one run.
But things can change fast the second time around.
The hitters might be more accustomed to the stuff of Sanchez and Lester. More video has been watched. More scouting information has been absorbed. There could be a comfort level.
There could be … offense, and possibly even offense in abundance?
"When you see a guy more than once, you feel better against the guy," Red Sox catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia said. "They've done a great job of maintaining and keeping it down in the zone and keeping us from having those big innings.
"We're going to take that same approach. We're trying to get to the starting pitcher, get some runs on the board and get to the bullpen."
Detroit will try to repeat the collective effort at the plate that was generated on Wednesday, scoring seven runs in two innings: a five-run second and a two-run fourth against Red Sox starter Jake Peavy.
Prior to the game, Tigers manager Jim Leyland orchestrated what he referred to as a surprising lineup change: having Torii Hunter bat leadoff, moving Miguel Cabrera from third to second, and putting struggling former leadoff man Austin Jackson in the eight-hole.
It worked for everyone, except the Red Sox. Jackson drew a full-count, bases-loaded walk and ended up with two hits and another RBI. Hunter doubled home two runs.
In other words, Leyland will go to the same configuration in Game 5.
"I really think you have to," Leyland said. "You have seen good pitching. It's not that easy. If you look at all the series, I think it's remarkable.
"If you looked at some of the batting averages from all the teams involved in the playoffs, and I'm including the National League, it's pretty shocking sometimes. It's just not that easy. It's hard. But I will go with this lineup tomorrow for sure."
Meanwhile, the Red Sox will look for encouragement in the fact that they outhit the Tigers in Game 4, 12 to nine, and had plenty of chances to score.
"The one thing when we've been in stretches like this, we continually do a very good job of creating opportunities," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "We did that tonight. We haven't done it so much in the first three games, but that's a tip of the hat to the pitching that we've been facing.
"But the one thing that we've maintained is a constant approach with the lineup and not creating further uncertainty. And I think our guys have responded well to that. I thought overall it was a very good offensive approach tonight. Unfortunately, the two-out base hit was elusive and any kind of extra-base hit with any men on base."
Thursday's Game 5 brings about the rematch of a duel that observers of the game will likely remember for a long time.
Most will remember the fact that Sanchez's six-inning, no-hit, 12-strikeout, six-walk work, but Lester was very good, too, going 6 1/3 innings and giving up only one run on six hits while striking out four and walking one. The hit that did him in was a soft line drive to center field by Jhonny Peralta.
Despite the loss, there was ample evidence yet again that the Lester the Red Sox have come to expect in October is back, and the veteran left-hander said it's not difficult to pinpoint how he's been able to rebound from a disappointing 2012 and inconsistent early 2013 campaign.
"I think any time you have fastball command, it sets everything up," Lester said. "That's the name of being a pitcher. You've got to have good command of your fastball down the zone on both sides. For whatever reason, whether it was just that little extra time after the break, I just physically felt better within each game."
For Sanchez, despite the feat of having rendered the Red Sox hitless for six innings in Game 1, there's room for improvement.
The right-hander, whose 2.57 ERA was the lowest in the American League, said he would try to not walk so many batters and lower his pitch count in the process. That would lead to an outing of more than six innings.
"I need to do my job," Sanchez said. "And I have to control what I can control. ... But when I don't have control … then I can't do too much."
Red Sox: Bogaerts to start?
• Rookie infielder Xander Bogaerts entered Game 4 as a pinch-hitter and doubled in the ninth inning, becoming the youngest Red Sox player, at 21 years old, to record a postseason hit. After the game, Farrell was asked if Bogaerts would get the start in Game 5, presumably at third base or shortstop, where Will Middlebrooks (1-for-9 in the series) and Stephen Drew (1-for-13 in the series), respectively, have scuffled.
Farrell wouldn't commit to it, but he didn't say no, either.
"We're struggling a little bit to get production out of that [left] side," Farrell said. "So it's something that's being considered, for sure."
• Outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury had four hits in Game 4, giving him five games in his postseason career in which he's had at least three hits, passing Kevin Youkilis and David Ortiz for the most postseason games with three hits in team history.
• Boston has a 0.74 bullpen ERA (two earned runs in 24 1/3 innings) this postseason, with 22 strikeouts.
Tigers: Fielder still struggling
• Even though the Tigers scored seven runs in their Game 4 victory, slugger Prince Fielder was not a part of the action. The big first baseman took an 0-for-4 night with a strikeout and is hitting .200 (3-for-15) with no home runs or RBIs in the ALCS and only one extra-base hit, a double. He has struck out four times and drawn one walk.
"That's just part of it," Leyland said. "Like I've always said, when he stands in the batter's box, you think something big could happen at any time, and I still feel that way. Will it happen? I don't know. … But I don't want to put any pressure on anybody, say, 'You have to go up and hit a home run.'"
• Tigers starting pitchers have registered a quality start in eight of the club's nine games thus far during the postseason. Detroit starters have compiled a 1.97 ERA (13 earned runs in 59 1/3 innings) and 81 strikeouts during the nine starts. The Tigers led the Major Leagues with 108 quality starts during the regular season.
• Designated hitter Victor Martinez has hit safely in seven of the nine postseason games and has collected multiple hits in six of the nine. He is hitting .429 (15-for-35) with four doubles, a home run and three RBIs during the postseason.
Worth noting
• Through the first 36 innings of the ALCS, the Red Sox have been tied or behind after 32 innings, having only led after Jarrod Saltalamacchia's walk-off single in the ninth inning of Game 2 and after Mike Napoli's solo home run with one out in the seventh inning of Game 3.
• With Doug Fister's seven strikeouts in Game 4, Tigers starting pitchers have 42 strikeouts in four games. The Atlanta Braves starters hold the LCS record with 49 strikeouts in the 1991 LCS, and the Arizona Diamondbacks hold the postseason record with 51 strikeouts in 50 1/3 innings by their starters in the 2001 World Series. Both the LCS and postseason records were set in series that went seven games.

We spent the last four days in Chicago and enjoyed every minute of it. My kiddos have officially been bit by the traveling bug which couldn't make me happier. We planned the trip because we wanted to see my cousin get married. It meant a lot for us to be able to go back and be a part of the beautiful day. Life is short and it's memories like these that are so special. And a huge thank you to my dad's family for making us feel so welcome. I had spent a good amount of time in Chicago when I was back in college so it was fun to be back in the city. It really is fantastic. The bride and groom had created the most spectacular list of places to go to eat, see, and visit. We held onto that list for dear life and tried to hit as many places as we could. Let's just say we didn't hesitate to eat our way through the city.
I remember going to the Museum of Science and Industry with my family when I was younger so it was a pleasure to take my children and see it all again through their eyes. I had forgotten how captivating this museum really is. We had a blast and had to force ourselves to leave to make it to our next event!
On another day, we hit up Shed Aquarium. Thank goodness there was glass between my son and the glorious creatures because as the rest of us were looking up at the shark . . . I looked over to see my son trying to get in to swim with him! Hilarious.
The weather was quite crisp and cool which felt really great. Here in California, we are still sporting warm temps so it was fun to break out the warm clothes and bundle up with a warm coffee.
These kiddos are serious troopers and enjoyed walking to places as well. Here we had just come from popping in on my sister and her husband at The Purple Pig {amazing food and atmosphere}.
Here are my two buttercups standing outside of the church after the wedding ceremony. What I love most is that my son was able to wear a blazer that my brother had worn when he was little. I am a sentimental sap so things like that really mean a lot to me.
And thanks to my dear ND friend, Carrie, we were able to borrow her trusted babysitter so that the hubs and I could enjoy a date night for the reception. It was all so perfectly planned and beautiful. The bride and groom did not miss a detail. And my husband did not hesitate to bust out the Gangnam Style dance at the reception. I am not joking.
Dubbed as The Cameo Wedding, everything about the celebration was well thought out and executed with so much style and grace. This is a look at the paper that was handed out at the ceremony. The back of the paper boasted silhouettes of each and every person in the bridal party. So clever and so special.
These keys were all resting on gorgeous pieces of moss to direct guests to their tables. My sister suggested using this as a Christmas ornament to remember the day and that is what we plan to do. All of these touches were designed and carried out by the bride and groom.
And does the beautiful bride resemble Penelope Cruz or what? Even more so in real life. Congratulations Carrie and Ryan. You make a wonderful couple and we couldn't be happier for you. And thank you to my entire family for making us feel so welcome and loved. Oh, and a huge shout out to my Uncle who created a Chocolate Raspberry Port just for the occasion. It was delivered to all of us in our hotel rooms and was DELICIOUS. Chicago, we miss you already and will be back soon!
Have you been to Chicago? Do you love it as much as we do?
And I could not let this day go by without saying that I am proud to be an American and cherish my right to vote. God bless America.

Blame me, but I'm thinking that latest kernels put the lamp at 100% by default instead older kernels put the lamp at 50% (kidding, but not really seriously) ... how is it possible for such a different hardware to behave all the same way?
Phoronix: Mobile Users Beware: Linux Has Major Power Regression
For those that follow my personal Twitter feed will know that for the past week I've been closely testing Ubuntu 11.04 and all Ubuntu releases going back to Ubuntu 8.04 on many mobile devices in the office. The overall system performance, power consumption, and boot performance have been the principal targets. However, late this week I discovered a glaring regression: Ubuntu 11.04 is viciously going through power. Compared to Ubuntu 10.10, the power consumption on Ubuntu 11.04 for mobile devices is up about 10% on average but under some workloads, I am seeing the power consumption up by nearly 30%. This is happening on many mobile systems spanning multiple generations of Intel CPUs and with Intel / ATI / NVIDIA graphics. This issue has been tracked down to a frightening kernel regression in the mainline tree that is still not addressed.
Blame me, but I'm thinking that latest kernels put the lamp at 100% by default instead older kernels put the lamp at 50% (kidding, but not really seriously) ... how is it possible for such a different hardware to behave all the same way?

Id really much appreciate an explanation for the X-axis for the Graphs.
In most cases its time. But it doesnt make sense when you have idling...
Why are graphs ending at different times if not caused by increased performance?
It isn't clear if the power measurements are for the whole system or just the processor. I'm assuming they are for the whole system (ie including screen, drives etc). If that is the case then this problem is even worse. It is reasonable to believe that those physical devices are consuming the same amount of power as before.
If the devices consumed half the power and the cpu etc consumed the other half then the overall number going up by 10% means all of that increase came from that half of the system. (Sort of the inverse of Amdahl's law.)
It boggles the mind how after so many years the rest of the world is still trying to catch up to OS X's power management. You would think in this day and age that it would be common knowledge how to do it properly and not be some black obelisk.
Ubuntu is Linux. Linux is not Ubuntu. Just to make that distinction. In my (admittedly limited) experience, Ubuntu is more power hungry by default than many other distros, and I wouldn't use it on a mobile device anyway.
I noted a distinct lack of anything AMD, or other distros being tested. Is there any particular reason for that? Well Ubuntu only I can guess at, but the lack of AMD hardware has had me intrigued for some time.

What do you think of the
Giordana Laser Jersey
? Share a...
quality jersey
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
Really happy with this jersey, It's not as tight as I thought it might be, maybe US sizing differs slightly to the european purchased Giordana gear that I own. this isn't a bad thing.
I'm a tall rider with a muscular build and this does not look short on me or problems with the sleeves been to tight.
The fabric is extremly soft and stretchy so you get a good fit when sat in the saddle.
Just hope that the material holds up over several washes. I have found Giordana to be of good quality in the past so I have faith.
For sizing i am 3XL but i am stretching the sizing boundaries by being 6ft 7" and 95kg.
Overall very pleased.
Debbie C
Yes, the European sizing is a different than our U.S. (there's a little cool way you can double check size 'translations' by, of all things, checking the size charts on sites such as www.saks.com, or Neiman Marcus.com, etc., on their mens' designer page...they list all the European/U.S. size equivalents. Plus, you can go directly to the Giordana site and view their very detailed sizing chart.
I've both the F.R.C. and Laser jerseys & shorts...if you're wanting a bit more compression, go with the F.R.C. line...you'll love it!
Tony Lopez-Isa
Race Fit Comfort
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Giordana's Laser is a very comfortable race fit jersey. I have a couple of other Giordana jerseys and this buy far is the most form fitting I now own. I am not a racer, nor do I have 2% body fat, I bought a size large and kept it even thought the XL would probably fit like most of my other Giordana jerseys in a L.
Wearing this out for the first time took a bit of courage, but I busted it out on a hot and humid 95 degree day. The jersey is silky smooth and comfortable. The zipper works well and I didn't feel any of the seems. What really impressed me is the sweet transfer. The jersey pulled sweat off and kept my skin dry all day long. While the pockets are not the biggest, I got everything I needed in them without a problem. The small zip on the center pocket is great for keys or $$$.
I would highly recommend this jersey for rides on hot days or races. Or if you need some motivation to drop that last 10lbs.

In January 1998, James Van Der Beek was introduced to the world as "Dawson Leery." Take a look at where he and his "Dawson's Creek" co-stars are today, more than 16 years later.
Van Der Beek played Dawson Leery, a Capeside, Massachusetts, teen with a passion for movies and the girl next door, Joey Potter.
Van Der Beek went on to star in such movies as "Varsity Blues," "Texas Rangers" and TV shows like "One Tree Hill" and "Mercy." More recently he played a version of himself on the sitcom "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23." He also had a role in the 2013 movie "Labor Day" opposite Josh Brolin and Kate Winslet and starred in the short-lived 2014 sitcom "Friends with Better Lives."
Katie Holmes landed the role of Joey Potter by sending in an audition tape and wowing the show's creator, Kevin Williamson. Joey proved to be a love interest for both Dawson and Pacey Witter, played by Joshua Jackson.
Holmes has starred in movies like "Batman Begins" and "Thank You For Smoking." In 2011, she played Jackie Kennedy in ReelzChannel's "The Kennedys" and co-starred in the Adam Sandler comedy "Jack and Jill." She was also known as half of the celebrity couple "TomKat," with husband Tom Cruise, but the pair split in 2012. She's had recent roles in the movies "Days and Nights," "Miss Meadows" and "The Giver."
Joshua Jackson played Pacey Witter, the class clown who had a relationship with his teacher and ended up with Joey at the end of the series.
Jackson got his start before "Dawson's Creek" in "Mighty Ducks" and appeared in the movies "Cruel Intentions" and "Skulls" while on the show. Since 2008, he had starred in the sci-fi TV series "Fringe," which came to an end with its 100th episode on Jan. 18, 2013. He most recent role came in the Showtime drama "The Affair," which debuted in October 2014.
Michelle Williams played Jen Lindley, who moved to Capeside to live with her grandmother because of her wild past.
Williams has starred in movies like "Shutter Island" and "Brokeback Mountain," for which she earned her first Oscar nomination. She was again nominated for 2010's "Blue Valentine" and 2011's "My Week with Marilyn." She most recently starred in the 2012 indie comedy-drama "Take This Waltz" and played Glinda the Good Witch in 2013's "Oz the Great and Powerful."
Kerr Smith played Jack McPhee, who, after a brief relationship with Joey, made history as one of the first openly gay teens on a TV drama.
Smith, who got his start on "As the World Turns," also appeared in the movies "Final Destination" and "My Bloody Valentine 3D" and has had recurring roles on series like "Charmed," "CSI: NY," "Life Unexpected," "Eli Stone," "NCIS" and, most recently, the ABC Family series "The Fosters." He also starred in the 2013 indie thriller "Criticized" and the 2014 drama "Where Hope Grows."
Mary Beth Peil played Evelyn "Grams" Ryan, who raised her granddaughter Jen.
Peil followed up "Dawson's Creek" with roles on "The Stepford Wives" and "Flags of Our Fathers." She now appears on the CBS drama "The Good Wife."
Meredith Monroe played Jack's sister Andie McPhee, one of Jen's closest friends and a love interest for Pacey.
Monroe has made a career on TV, including roles in "CSI," "Criminal Minds," "House, M.D.," "Bones," "The Mentalist," "The Closer" and "Hawaii Five-0."
Busy Philipps played Audrey Liddel, who was a bit of a wild child and became Joey's roommate during their freshman year at college. She appeared on 46 episodes over two seasons of the show.
Philipps appeared on the short-lived TV series "Freaks and Geeks" before "Dawson's Creek" and had recurring roles on "ER" and "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles." She now appears on the Courteney Cox sitcom "Cougar Town."
Mary-Margaret Humes played Gail Leery, Dawson's mother. A former Miss Florida, Humes has appeared on various TV shows since "Dawson's Creek," including "CSI: NY," "Grey's Anatomy," "Saving Grace" and the HBO series "Luck." She most recently starred in the Lifetime movie "The Girl He Met Online," which debuted in February 2014.
Nina Repeta played Bessie Potter, Joey's older sister. Since the show ended, Repeta has kept a low profile, appearing in one episode of the TV series "Palmetto Pointe" and starring in the 2011 indie mystery movie "Murder Biz." Most recently, she had a minor role in the newly released horror-thriller "The Remaining."
John Wesley Shipp played Mitch Leery, Dawson's father, who died in a car crash in season five. Shipp is a veteran of soap operas, including roles on "One Life to Live," "All My Children," "Guiding Light" and "Santa Barbara." He's recently had guest roles in the TV shows "Drop Dead Diva" and "Teen Wolf." He's also had a small, recurring part in The CW's "The Flash," playing the father of Barry Allen, the titular superhero's alter ego. Shipp actually played the role of Barry Allen in the short-lived 1990 version of "The Flash."
Pacey's older sister, Gretchen, was played by Sasha Alexander. Alexander can now be seen on the TNT drama "Rizzoli & Isles." She's also had recurring roles on "Presidio Med" and "NCIS."
Oliver Hudson appeared on the last season of "Dawson's Creek," playing bartender and Joey-love-interest Eddie Doling. Kate Hudson's sister and Goldie Hawn's son, Hudson went on to star in the TV series "The Mountain" and "Rules of Engagement" and now has a recurring role on the TV series "Nashville." He's also appeared in movies such as "The Breed," "Black Christmas," "Grown Ups 2" and "Walk of Shame."
Michael Pitt played star quarterback Henry Parker.

Wash & Care
Why do we encourage proper care of our clothing and gear?
Because you have invested in (or are thinking about investing in) one of the most technically advanced pieces of apparel or equipment you'll ever own and we want to make sure you have the information you need to protect and care for your purchase. Proper care assures you will optimize the performance of your Marmot product and maximize its service-life.
Tent Care
- If necessary, use a sponge and warm water to clean your tent. If the entire tent requires cleaning, wash in a large bathtub of cold water, but do not soak the tent for an extended period of time.
- Do not use hot water, bleach, dishwashing soap or detergent to wash the tent. If needed, a mild, non-detergent based soap can be used to clean the tent.
- Do not use a washing machine or dryer to clean your tent. This can remove the waterproof coating.
- To dry the tent, either pitch it in the shade, or hang it on a line to dry. Be sure the tent is completely dry before storing it.

Ten After Eleven
Friday, April 15, 2005
"Ten After Eleven," is a radio play written for The Next Big Thing by Theresa Rebeck, in collaboration with the Naked Angels Theater Company, starring Marlo Thomas, Lili Taylor, Dan Lauria and Fisher Stevens. The play was inspired by the infamous 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese -- a crime said to have been heard by many, but acted upon by virtually none, in a Queens neighborhood. 50 years after the murder, the details of the case have changed, but the reaction is still the same.

From the article:
^Their. Own. Fault.I do see, however, a few areas where Clang/LLVM have gone that I do not think GCC is currently thinking of entering: "toolability" (for the lack of a better term). Clang's design follows a different path than g++. It's not just a code generating parser, it is a pure parser that also generates code. The difference makes it suitable for any kind of tool that needs to understand C++: static analyzers, code re-formatters, syntax highlighters, and other similar tools. Additionally, it is designed as a library, so it can be embedded into applications.
Look up the history of GCC, the Free Software Foundation and RMS specifically and explicitly wanted GCC to be as monolithic and singular as possible so that closed source programs couldn't rip out individually pieces and incorporate them. I'm pro-FOSS and pro-OSS but the FSF's and RMS's shortsighted zeal is now catching up to them and have shoved them to this point: adapt or die.

I find software RAID support to be a bigger deal - it kind of surprises me it took so long.
Phoronix: GParted 0.17 Supports Online Resizing
GParted 0.17.0 was released today and its key feature is support for online resizing of file-systems along with other bug fixes and updates...
I find software RAID support to be a bigger deal - it kind of surprises me it took so long.
Software Raid mdadm is so common these days... gparted really needs to fully support mdadm raid !
To online resizing, I only have to say... Fucking finally!
Yeah. Now we just need people to realize that resizing is a professional RAID feature. One of those don't-try-this-at-home-kids things.
"I resized a partition and now my PC/laptop won't boot" was one of the most common complaints I saw on Ubuntu Forums along with "WiFi doesn't work" and "I tried to set up dual boot and lost all my data".
I've lost my data due to resizing only once, and it was NTFS. Thank god I have R-Studio.
I've resized partitions all the time whether they be FAT, NTFS, EXT3/4, swap, or HFS. I've personally never had corrupt data, even on a RAID0 setup. Generally, I make clones of the disks before I do it, just because there is a big risk.
With the hundreds of resizes I've done over the years, I've never lost any data or ran into any issues whatsoever. I think one thing that might have contributed to my success with resizing is the fact that any time I resize a NTFS partition I make sure to do it right in Windows, this is what I was recommended to do on any Windows Vista or higher NTFS partition and I have had no reason not to keep doing it that way.
