A man, seeking to lose some of his excess weight, visited the local doctor.John: How can I lose twelve pounds of ugly fat?Doctor: Of course! Cut your head off.
All Out of AnaestheticA dentist ran out of anaesthetic just before the last extraction for the day was scheduled. He gave the nurse a very large needle, instructing her to jab it hard into the patient's butt when the signal was given, so it would take his attention away from the tooth extraction.It all happened in an instant. The nurse, patient, and pliers were in place. The signal was given, and the nurse bayoneted the patient with the needle just as the dentist yanked the tooth.Afterwards, the dentist asked, "Hurt much?"The patient hesitated, "Didn't hardly feel it come out. And, man, those roots were really deep!"
Medical JokeStuttering ProblemA guy walks into his doctor's office and says, "Ddddoc, I've bbbeen sssttttuttering ffor yyears and III'm tired of it. Ccccan yyyou hehehelp mmme???" The doc says, "Well, I'll have to examine you first before I can answer you."The doc examines him and says, "Well, I'm pretty sure that I know what the problem is." The guy asks, "wwwell wwwhat is it, ddoc?" The doc says,"It's your penis. It's about about 18 inches long and all of the down pressure is putting a strain on your vocal chords." The guy asks, "Wwwhat ccan wwe ddo about it?" The doc replies, "Well, I can cut it off and transplant a shorter one. I can guarantee that the operation will cure your stuttering." The guy says, "Dddo it!"The guy has the operation and about four weeks later he comes back to the doctor's office and says, "Thanks Doc. You've solved my problem and I don't stutter any more but I've only had sex once in the past month. My wife doesn't enjoy it any more. I cannot satisfy her. She liked my long penis. I don't care if I have to stutter, I want you to put my long one back one!" The doc replies, "Nnnnope. A ddddeal's a ddddeal!"
Mix Up at the HospitalThis guy went to hospital for a circumcision, but because of a mix up, he ended up having a complete sex change.All of the doctors and nurses had gathered around his bed as he was waking up so they could give him the bad news.Naturally, the poor guy went to pieces and started crying when they explained what had happened to him."Oh no!" he moaned, "this means I'll never be able to experience an erection ever again!""Of course you will," one of the doctors soothed. It'll just have to be someone else's, that's all."
Need SamplesAn old man goes to the doctor for his yearly physical, his wife tagging along. When the doctor enters the examination room, he tells the old man, "I need a urine sample, a stool sample and a sperm sample."The old man, being hard of hearing, looks at his wife and yells: "WHAT?""What did he say? What's he want?"His wife yells back, "He needs your underwear
������������� Oh Krap!!!!!!!
Joe was moderately successful in his career, but as he got older he was increasingly hampered by incredible headaches. When his personal hygiene and love life started to suffer, he sought medical help. After being referred from one specialist to another, he finally came across a doctor who solved the problem.
"The good news is I can cure your headaches... The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition which causes your testicles to press up against the base of your spine. The pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."
Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. He couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but decided he had no choice but to go under the knife.
When he left the hospital, his mind was clear, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself. As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life.
He walked past a men's clothing store and thought, "That's what I need: a new suit." He entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit."
The salesman eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see... size 44 long." Joe laughed, "That's right, how did you know?"
"It's my job."
Joe tried on the suit. It fit perfectly. As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?" Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure..."
The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see... 34 sleeve and... 16 and a half neck" Joe was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?"
Joe tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly. As Joe adjusted the collar in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about new shoes?" Joe was on a roll and said, "Sure..."
The salesman eyed Joe's feet and said, "Let's see... 9-1/2... E." Joe was astonished, "That's right, how did you know?"
Joe tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly. Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, "How about a new hat?" Without hesitating, Joe said, "Sure..."
The salesman eyed Joe's head and said, "Let's see... 7-5/8." Joe was incredulous, "That's right, how did you know?"
The hat fit perfectly. Joe was feeling great, when the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?" Joe thought for a second and said, "Sure..." The salesman stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see... size 36."
Joe laughed, "No, I've worn size 34 since I was 18 years old."
The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34. It would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."

Critical coupling in plasmonic resonator arrays |
Optics Letters, Vol. 36, Issue 15, pp. 2770-2772 (2011)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (506 KB)
We report critical coupling of electromagnetic waves to plasmonic cavity arrays fabricated on Moiré surfaces. Dark field plasmon microscopy imaging and polarization dependent spectroscopic reflection measurements reveal the critical coupling conditions of the cavities. The critical coupling conditions depend on the superperiod of the Moiré surface, which also defines the coupling between the cavities. Complete transfer of the incident power can be achieved for traveling wave plasmonic resonators, which have a relatively short superperiod. When the superperiod of the resonators increases, the coupled resonators become isolated standing wave resonators in which complete transfer of the incident power is not possible. Analytical and finite difference time domain calculations support the experimental observations.

My daughter has been showing more interest in her American Girl doll lately so I've decided to get her another 18" doll for her birthday. With 2 dolls she's going to want more doll stuff. I enjoy sewing & craft projects so I've decided to make stuff for the dolls myself. I came up with this idea of recycling clothing items into doll clothes when we were assessing my daughter's clothes the other day. My first project was taking 3 tier knit skorts and turning them into a dress or skirt. No gathering, no pulling through elastic, just a few easy steps!
Step 1- Cut the shorts out of the skorts and then cut up the seam. I was able to get 2 out of these 4T skorts.
Step 2- Sew the edges together. I serged mine and discovered that it's better to start with the elastic end.
Step 3- Turn inside out and add ribbon for dress ties or just leave it as a skirt for the doll.

A prime example of a solid romantic comedy.
You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy this light romantic comedy, but it helps.
Younger knows it's fun to watch Rafi and David cross lines of age, culture and religion. He also knows it's painful. That's what makes his movie hilarious and heartfelt.
There are some one-liners that zing not only with humor but truth. On the whole I was satisfied.
Prime serves as yet another showcase for Streep; to prove how expertly she plays a Jewish mother with a Ph.D. in psychology, just imagine Barbra Streisand in the role -- you'd have a farce only a step above slapstick. With Streep, you get a smartly observant comedy that never overplays its hand.
Yes, Younger has made an update of the ''shiksa who changed my life" story in ''Annie Hall." But Prime is missing the psychological acuity and scabrous cultural wit of Woody Allen at his best. These lovers meet standing in line to see Antonioni's ''Blow-Up" and never mention the movie.
Prime may have its unlikely moments, but overall its heart is winningly untraditional and in exactly the right place.
This may sound like Woody Allen - in fact, it often feels like Woody Allen (minus the expected helpings of angst) - but it's not. Prime is from writer/director Ben Younger and, while it's not up to the level of Allen's great romantic comedies ("Annie Hall," "Manhattan"), it's better than anything the acclaimed New York auteur has brought to the screen in recent years.
Despite the snappy brilliance of the setup, Prime doesn't entirely deliver on its promise -- something about the way it ends feels like a cop-out, and the opportunities for humor aren't exploited quite as well as they could be.
Prime is neither deep nor as shallow as it first threatens to be, but surprisingly good fun.
Sure, this romance, starring Meryl Streep, Uma Thurman and Bryan Greenberg, follows a familiar boy-meets-girl scenario, but Younger turns the routine into combustible fun.
The real revelation here is Streep, who spends every moment comically negotiating her conflicted impulses.
Frankly, the most disturbing thing about Prime is that Uma Thurman is now officially an Older Woman.
Despite its title, Prime is not a cut above. This romantic comedy's predictability and rather dull love story make it the cinematic equivalent of a slightly stale hamburger.
The sort of movie where all of the best jokes are in the trailer, but these days a romantic comedy with anything worth quoting at all is something of an accomplishment.
Despite a comic Yiddishe mama turn by Meryl Streep and a sensitively nuanced performance by Uma Thurman in a convincing changeup from her recent kickass action roles, Prime remains an oddly juiceless older woman-younger man romance, with a Freudian twist.
All of this makes the movie pleasant, but not very memorable - a pale mirror image of "Shopgirl," which touches on some similar themes.
Now that Woody Allen is no longer making acceptable Woody Allen movies, it's surprising we're not seeing more comedies like Prime, a slight but well-meaning picture that strives for the same kind of pleasurably neurotic sophistication that Allen, at his best, used to give us.
Not one bit of the story tracks. But with these women in these roles, you're asking for truth?
Unfortunately, this rich story about actual adults takes up maybe a third of Prime. The rest of the time, we're hanging with David and Rafi as they act out relationship cliches.
Greenberg and Thurman are both engaging, but they can't quite compensate for their characters' shallowness. Streep, on the other hand, just can't stop compensating. Her oy-vey-can-you-believe-the-kid-and-his-shiksa performance is all studied mannerisms with no real heart.
Younger, for whatever reason, simply can't abide their happiness, and so he destructs the relationship from time to time for no reason, using plot devices that wouldn't have been out of place in episodes of "Three's Company."
On and on drags this amour fou, with its one-liners, ripostes, elaborate misunderstandings and chastened reaction shots, all courtesy of writer-director Ben Younger, straining to let out his inner femme after the testosterone excesses of "Boiler Room."
I found nothing likable or funny about either of these characters, who both deserve a pie in the face. (One of them even gets it.)
The occasionally amusing, generally fatuous romantic comedy about a dazzling divorcee, a smitten Jewish boy and a controlling Jewish mom who also happens to be the divorcee's psychotherapist, is a high-concept movie with a Yiddish accent.
A romantic saga that dares to ask realistic questions.
Prime seems aimed at prime-time television, with endless iterations on the same theme of "frustrated relationship" that will finally get resolved during sweeps week in the season before cancellation. Call it: My Mama, the Shrink.
The film's greatest asset, however, is its unusually authentic use of Manhattan locations: Younger clearly knows New York much better than the topography of the human heart.
Not quite a romance by numbers, Prime is nevertheless a movie we need like a hole in the head.
This has the raw material for a decent rom-com, but the aimless structure and ambiguous tone undermine both humour and romance.
The sheer absurdity of the presented relationship is redeemed by a sort of surprise ending, but by the time it arrives, you wish it had come sooner, as the pain of viewing has already been interminably long.
It has the low-budget look and feel of an indie dating comedy -- and not a very good one at that.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
/ Ground-breaking Ceremony in Georgia
Loading Tree...
On November 16, NRCS Georgia State Conservationist James E. Tillman, Sr., announced that the agency recently held a ground breaking ceremony and project review at three American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 dam rehabilitation sites.
The three dams are: South River #4 in Madison County, Sandy Creek #15 in Jackson County and Marbury #22 in Barrow County. Other projects that are part of ARRA are Little Sandy & Trail Creek #1 in Madison County and Sandy Creek #23 in Jackson County. All five dams are scheduled to be completed by August 2011.
Watershed dams, originally built to protect agricultural lands from floods, are now protecting homes, roads, and utilities from flood waters. As a result, they are being upgraded, or rehabilitated to meet current public safety standards.
The first project, Marbury #22, began on September 29 and is scheduled to be completed by December 11. The second project, Sandy Creek 15 in Jackson County, started work on October 18. The estimated completion date for this one is August 18, 2011. The third project, Little Sandy & Trail Creek #1 in Madison County, was started on October 25, and has an estimated completion date of January 25, 2011. South River #4 was scheduled to start on November 15 with a completion date of May 5, 2011. Sandy Creek #23 is scheduled to start on December 5 and it should be completed by July 5, 2011.
The Georgia Soil and Water Conservation Commission (GSWCC) Executive Director, Brent Dykes, said "The Conservation Commission is pleased to be partnering with the local soil and water conservation districts and the USDA-NRCS to fund these very worthwhile projects. As work begins, much needed rehabilitation of these five structures will be accomplished, resulting in continued flood control benefits for Georgia citizens for years to come."
Funding is being provided through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
The NRCS is delivering over $5 million in financial assistance through its Watershed Rehabilitation Program, which is being matched by almost $3 million in state funds through the GSWCC.
This year represents the 75th year of NRCS helping people help the land. Since its inception in 1935, the NRCS conservation delivery system has advanced a unique partnership with state and local governments and private landowners delivering conservation based on specific, local conservation needs, while accommodating state and national interests.

Ford Racing M-3200-R used hydraulic steering rack off of a 2010 Boss302R before they got the EPAS sorted out. 15.6:1 steering ratio designed for road racing. Standard part on the FR500S and FR500C. Direct bolt on for 2005-2010 GT and 2007-2010 GT500. May also fit other models, but I am not 100% sure. Gives a heavier steering feel which translates to better high speed feedback. Would be great for an autocross-er, weekend road course warrior, or just a street car wanting a different feeling. Asking $550 but price is neg. Located in Deland, FL
Is it still available? I desperately need this, my steering rack is pooped out and this would be great for my mountain drives. Thanks!
Sorry for the months of delay as racing season has been in full swing with the IMSA CTSCC series. The rack is still available so please feel free to contact me directly by email at [email protected]. Thank you!

OMEN DVD. Palisades Tartan.
It takes some nerve to title a film Omen, but writers Danny and Oxide Pang just about get away with it in this 2003 movie that, while nowhere near as good as their seminal horror movie The Eye, has some interesting ideas and a whacked out ending. Starring Thai boy band D2B (who appear as characters with the same names as the actors), the film follows three childhood friends who have grown up to be not very good graphic designers. One night, the three take separate journeys home that lead them to supernatural encounters – one crashes his car and wakes to find himself in the home of a mysterious old woman, another meets a new girlfriend after she knocks a plant pot from her balcony onto his car below, and the other encounters a young street seller who uses sleight of hand to trick him out of a toy car. So, cars would seem to be central to the story, right? Actually, no. That really seems to just be a coincidence. Eventually, the three stories converge, leading to a final revelation that is one of the oddest, and potentially most ludicrous you'll ever see. I won't spoil it much – the whole film has hinted at reincarnation, and that's exactly what you get – but in the most unlikely way possible. It's to the film's credit that this revelation isn't as laughably ridiculous as it could be, and instead almost manages to be quite touching. The pop stars do a solid job in what is clearly a bit of a vanity film for them, as do the supporting cast (most notably Supatchaya Reunreung as the female romantic lead), but their characters are pretty thinly drawn, and much of the film is an exercise in atmosphere over story. But it's not boring, and has some great visual moments working for it. Thai horror is generally a mixed bag, and Omen is somewhere between the best and the worst of the genre. Not perhaps a film that will burn itself into your memory, it's nevertheless entertaining enough, and certainly worth checking out.

Grand Cypress Golf Club - New Course
One North Jacaranda, Orlando, FL 32836Map
Grand Cypress Resort
+1 407 239 4700
email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Neighborhood: Walt Disney World
A classically designed course, New Course at Grand Cypress Golf Club offers more challenges in terms of slopes and mounds. The course is a bit tough even to the most experienced and skilled golfer. To pose a new dimension to the challenge is the not so prominent water body which might suddenly come into the picture. The landscape even with very less trees, still is spectacular. The course is designed by Jack Nicklaus and inspired by the much acclaimed St. Andrews course.

Lake States
Examples: Anderson, C. and
D. Otto. 1994. The Economic Impact of Rural Highway Bypasses: Iowa and
Minnesota Case Studies. Ames, IA: Iowa State University. Bypasses are viewed as a cost-effective method of improving traffic flow by
routing traffic around central business districts of communities. However,
retailers and other businesses in central business district view bypasses as
having adverse impacts on them. This study examined the effect of bypasses on
rural communities. The paper looked at 11 communities in Iowa and 10
communities in Minnesota. The paper used several methods to examine potential
impacts. Pull factors of overall retail sales were compared in communities
with and without bypasses. Total sales were analyzed in various classes of
retail sales to understand the impact on different types of businesses. A
survey was conducted of businesses to assess their attitude towards bypasses.
This information was analyzed using a Probit model. The findings suggested
that bypasses do not affect retail sales. Wisconsin Department of Development. 1990. Economic Impact of Mergers and
Acquisitions in Wisconsin: 1978-1989. Research Paper RP-90-1. Madison, WI:
Division of Research and Planning.
Because of the general perception that mergers and acquisitions were having a negative impact on the Wisconsin economy, this study analyzed employment and wage data from 1978 to 1986 to determine if there were any negative effects. A statistical regression technique was used in this analysis. In addition, the study sought to determine if there was a difference between hostile mergers and acquisitions and friendly ones. The study found that on average 9,400 jobs and $220 million in payroll were affected each year. Loss of employment due to an out-of state acquisition was statistically significant; and hostile acquisitions resulted in a larger loss of employment than a friendly takeover.
Lieber, S. R., D. R. Fesenmaier and R. S. Bristow. 1989. "Recreation Expenditures and Opportunity Theory: The Case of Illinois." Journal of Leisure Research 21(2):106-123.
This paper investigates the factors that affect decision making of recreators. In particular the spatial context within which recreators make destination choices in considered. The relative effects of site characteristics are compared to the spatial context using a multiple regression model. Significantly, the results show that agglomerative effects and contextual effects of spatial structure are the principal factors influencing per person per day expenditure levels. The number of other facilities within 20 miles of the chosen destination had the most impact on per person per day expenditures. Facility development was shown to be the dominant predictive force in accounting for the level of expenditures.
Nadal, J. R., A. R. Font and A. S. Rossello. 2004. "The Economic Determinants of Seasonal Patterns." Annals of Tourism Research 31(3):697-711.
This paper examines two particular issues: the applicability of the Gini-coefficient as a measurement of seasonality in tourism and the influence of some economic variables on seasonal distribution. It was found that the Gini-coefficient is a good indicator easily able to summarize temporal variations in seasonality. Through regression analysis it was determined that some specific economic variables have a significant relationship with the seasonal shape of the tourism demand. The analysis points to the conclusion that as people have more income at their disposal they tend to divide their holidays into several sub-periods. In contrast, the nominal exchange rate plays an opposite role in that the more it benefits tourists they more tourists are likely to travel at peak periods. The overall results support the idea that tourists in the peak season differ from those in the off-season period.
Mules, T. 1998. "Decomposition of Australian tourist expenditures." Tourism Management 19(3):267-271.
This paper looks at the various components of the economic impact of tourists on the Australian economy. In particular, the total expenditure of visitors is seen as a function of the number of visitors, the length of stay and the average expenditure per visitor per night. Over time the growth in the Australian tourism industry is seen to a product of an increasing volume of visitors rather than visitors who consume more or stay longer. The author suggests this has important policy implications and the reliance on the mass tourism is a potential risk to the Australian economy. This paper illustrates that from a public policy perspective it is important to understand not only total economic impact, but also the factors that result in that impact. Misinterpreting the most influential factors in yearly expenditure trends can lead to poor public policy decisions.
Lindberg, K. and R. L. Johnson. 1997. "The Economic Values of Tourism's Social Impacts." Annals of Tourism Research 24(1):90-116.
This article presents the use of contingent valuation to estimate the economic cost of three social impacts of tourism on the Oregon Coast: traffic congestion, noise and minor crime, and provision of low-income housing. A detailed description of the contingent valuation method is provided along with a discussion of its challenges, sources of errors and major pitfalls. In particular, the challenge of discriminating between the valuation of the commodity and the valuation of the policy presented in the contingent valuation scenario is highlight. The authors present logit models of the contingent valuation scenarios and analyze the various factors that influenced a respondents willingness-to-pay. Factors analyzed included the importance of the issue, income level and length of residency in the community.
Di Matteo, L. and R. Di Matteo. 1996. "An Analysis of Canadian Cross-Border Travel." Annals of Tourism Research 23(1):103-122.
This paper presents results on the determinants of per capita same day automobile trips from Canada to the United States and expenditures on a provincial basis. The results suggest that over 90% of the variation in same day cross-border trips is accounted for by variables such as income, exchange rate, gasoline prices, the Goods and Services Tax, and seasonality factors, though the size and strength of the relationships vary across provinces.
Loomis, J. B. 1995. "Four Models for Determining Environmental Quality Effects on Recreational Demand and Regional Economies." Ecological Economics 12(1995):55-65.
This paper addresses the paucity of research which links recreational demand modeling with regional economic analysis modelling. The choice to participate in a recreational activity at a particular site are based on four related recreation choices: 1) decision to participate in a given recreation activity; 2) decision about which of the available sites to visit; 3) decision about the frequency of trips to take to a given site; and 4) decision about length of stay at the recreation site. Each of these four recreational choice decisions is related to and influenced by environmental quality and site facilities. When modelling the economic impact of the improvement (or degradation) of environmental quality or site facilities it is important to consider all four factors or risk underestimating the economic impact of the change.
Mitchell, C. J. A. 1993. "Economic Impact of the Arts: Theatre Festivals in Small Ontario Communities." Journal of Cultural Economics 17:55-67.
This study looks at the economic impact of small professional theatre companies (budget of less than 2 million) on nine small communities (population less than 10,000) in southern Ontario. Economic impact is measured in terms of total visitor expenditures. The study also calculates correlation coefficients to investigate the factors that lead to the differences in total economic impact in each of the communities. The study concludes that economic well-being will be maximized by attracting more non-local visitors (more prevalent in communities with established theatre companies) and if the tourist infrastructure to sustain tourists is in place.

Advocate file photo by CATHERINE THRELKELD -- LSU's Jordan Mickey shoots over Arkansas' Moses Kingsley last season at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. Mickey was named to the All-Southeastern Conference preseason first team and received votes for player of the year. Darkhorse Tigers focus on 'four-game season' BY MATTHEW HARRIS| email@example.com March 15, 2014 Comments ATLANTA — Andre Stringer slipped up. Sitting behind a microphone inside the bowels of the Georgia Dome, the LSU guard hinted the No. 7-seeded Tigers again hear rumblings they've underwhelmed ahead of the Southeastern Conference men's basketball tournament. "Everybody's excited," he said, "especially knowing how rocky our season was, some games we didn't do as well in, and we're anxious to play." Whether the Tigers can emerge as a darkhorse to survive into the weekend is another matter. On paper, LSU (18-12), which faces No. 10 seed Alabama (13-18) at 6 p.m. Thursday, appeared worthy of being tabbed to finish fourth in the SEC. The Tigers returned three reliable veterans, including All-SEC forward Johnny O'Bryant III. A top-10 recruiting class was wooed to Baton Rouge. And despite the insistence of its coaches, LSU played in a conference that is trying to shore up its basketball brand. Instead, the Tigers, a trendy pick to nab an NCAA tournament bid, went 9-9 during SEC play. They lost winnable road games at Ole Miss, Alabama and Kentucky inside the final two minutes. And they were swept by Georgia — a team picked to finish 11th in the preseason. The Tigers may need to knock off Crimson Tide to simply keep their clutches on an NIT slot. "We can't worry about the past," O'Bryant said. "This is a four-game season right now. You take it one game at a time. You know you get one win, then you move on to the next." A deep run would certainly aid the effort, though. "Everybody will be vying and playing to put themselves in position over these next few days," LSU coach Johnny Jones said. "We have to have an edge about ourselves, because we know that every team in this conference has shown on any given night it can be victorious." Already, Jones faces questions about whether his alma mater failed to live up to its potential. His posture Monday was optimistic, but Jones hinted an awareness of faint grumblings and critics as his second season in charge winds down. "The anticipation and excitement has built up around it because people aren't expecting us not to do well," Jones said. "When things just don't happen, you have to have a little bit more of an edge, really, about yourself." Unlikely runs studded by upsets aren't totally out of place, either. Over the past 15 seasons, six programs that finished below third place in their division — dumped when the league expanded two years ago — have reached the semifinals. Two of those squads reached the final. South Carolina, which finished fifth in the Eastern Division, lost to top-seed Florida in 2006. Two years later, Georgia, which went 4-12 during SEC play and finished last in the SEC East, famously reached the finals after a tornado struck the Georgia Dome and knocked off Arkansas to claim the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Forecasting those runs is difficult, though. Or so said Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings, whose Commodores made it to the semifinals last season in Nashville as a No. 10 seed. "It tends to happen just in the games," Stalling said. "You win one, and then you get on a little roll. There's never been anything I've sensed going into the tournament when we've done well, or when we've done poorly." Jones said he holds the same logic. Maybe LSU exacts some vengeance against the Crimson Tide. That feeling could carry over into the quarterfinals against No. 2 seed Kentucky, a team LSU came within 3.9 seconds and a Julius Randle stick-back in overtime from sweeping. And perhaps the Wildcats' won't be able to match the Tigers' residual intensity from an victory. "You sometimes feel comfortable being out there because of the layoff some times of your opponent," Jones said. "You have to really play to that. So you feel that you have the pieces in place to do what you feel." Whatever mixture of emotions or perceived slights fuels LSU is unknown. The typically reserved and muted Tigers didn't divulge whatever slights, losses or matchups stir their passions. They like the setup in Atlanta: four days with quick turnarounds and bouncing quickly from one foe to the next. "You're more engaged on playing," Hickey said. "You're not worried about nothing." But frankly, Stringer doesn't particularly care how the Tigers rev up. "I want that sense of urgency to come now," he said. "Not how we played them the first time, but a clean slate, preparing for another basketball game and another win." Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Delegate Shane Pendergrass thinks the "top officials" of the Howard County Public School System "ought to take a pay cut to help avoid facing the General Assembly's wrath when members convene in January to confront a looming fiscal 2011 shortfall…"
According to this story by Larry Carson in The Sun, the delegate from District 13 in Howard County thinks the school officials should "think about what message they want to send."
And it isn't like the school officials haven't already made cuts in their compensation.
"Cousin said Wednesday that all senior school officials salaries were frozen this year, and administrators have stopped taking expense money for milage, a savings of thousands of dollars to the board's budget."
Delegates make $43,500.00 for ninety days work. Shane claims that she has given back eight days pay like all other state employees. If she wants to set an example that's a pretty insignificant amount considering it is a part time job. I believe delegates get some other pretty nice perks as well.
Hey Shane, how about leading by example and giving up something significant before asking others to make sacrifices?

Wouldn't 8 days pay for 90 days work be about 9%?

Anon 8:05 PM,
Excellent question. One question is whether the delegates annualized their salary. If so, it would only be about 2%. Another question is what other types of compensation they receive (travel and entertainment expenses, office allowances, etc.). I attempted to find this out online but that information is not readily available. It was difficult enough to find out what their base pay is.
I believe that, at a minimum, this information should be much more accessible. It's our money after all.
Whatever happened to concept of citizen legislators?

Well, it's finished! Stephanie and I have officially sent off the first issue of sated magazine to the printers! I can't tell you what a big sigh of happiness we heaved when we finally reached that milestone. After months of long nights, intense work (and re-work), we can say we accomplished the first step of that goal we set for ourselves months ago: to create a new, beautiful, food magazine.
Thanks to everyone who's expressed their support and well wishes, and thanks to everyone who's already pre-ordered! It definitely gave us that extra boost of motivation to finish the first issue and make it as perfect as possible, knowing there were already so many people waiting to see it.
Thanks to all of you and your support of sated magazine! As a reminder, there are couple days left in the giveaway to win a free copy of the first issue. We will also be announcing pre-order information very soon, so please keep checking back!
I apologize for the late post; what with trying to finish up work on the first issue, plus a visit to wine country last week (writeup of that trip forthcoming as well!), I was finally able to sit down and share this very spring-y strawberry ice cream with you, as well as the trip to Pebble Beach that inspired this ice cream.
Thanks all for your support of sated! And now, a quick diversion:
I'll be providing cookies for a book event tomorrow: the authors Improv Sewing: A Freeform Approach to Creative Techniques will be doing a demo and book signing at Britex Fabrics in downtown San Francisco. I was approached because they were looking for a local blogger to provide treats for their event. Well, I was flattered to help out and who knows? I might actually learn how to do more with a thread and needle than sew buttons back on! A baker I am; a seamstress I'm not!
If you'd like to learn about the book, you can visit the website for a cute video.
Thanks also to everyone for their support of sated! As a reminder, if you are entering the contest through Twitter or Facebook to win a copy of the magazine, you must follow sated on Twitter and leave a comment, or like sated on Facebook and leave a comment. We see some people only following us without leaving a comment, so make sure you've done both parts! Thanks, good luck, and have a great weekend!

The dispassionate mirror: towards a transcendental narrative in film practice
Knudsen, E 2002, The dispassionate mirror: towards a transcendental narrative in film practice , PhD thesis, University of Salford.
- Submitted Version
Download (4MB) | Preview |
The use of Zen - advertent or inadvertent - in the practice of artistic creation is not new. From Japanese Haiku poetry, the early poetry of Wordsworth and even aspects of Shakespeare's Hamlet, to the paintings of Cezanne and Dali, to the novels of Ben Okri and the work of Samuel Becket and Peter Brooke, we see differing efforts to transcend the dominant mode of understanding ourselves and the world around us: namely that of the duality of thought, of the kind our conscious, logical intellect can comprehend. One could even point to contemporary physics - and in particular the physics emerging out of quantum mechanics' - to see that efforts to transcend the limitations of our own intellect in the quest to understand the phenomena of life are not confined to artists. One could describe this quest as spiritual, in that it is concerned with understanding life predominantly through feeling. As a relatively young art form, first conceived and developed within a mechanistic paradigm, the film medium does not have a tradition that both filmmakers and audience alike can relate to in terms of transcending modes of dualistic thought and exploring our spiritual nature. With some notable exceptions who remain on the whole on the fringes of popular film culture - Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer and Tarkovsky being the most prominent of these - filmmakers have been confined to working predominantly within the idiom of cause and effect, conflict and resolution, and the logic of psychologically explicable character motivation and consequent plot development. With relatively few reference points, the process of examining and exploring the film form beyond this psychological realism is difficult, not least because of the economic restraints that have traditionally hampered innovation within filmmaking. While our conscious thoughts and emotional lives are amply studied within the bounds of largely Freudian and humanistic psychology, there remain aspects of human experience - feelings connected to our transcendental natures - which film does not adequately explore or express. Here, I shall seek to illustrate and evaluate the efforts I have made as a practicing filmmaker through three films - One Day Tafo, Reunion and Signs of Life - to explore and develop a film form which seeks to reveal a truth about myself and the world in which I live: a truth which goes beyond what may be psychologically and intellectually explicable, a truth which is essentially experiential and devoid of traditional concepts of meaning. I am tempted to refer to this as `Zen and the art of filmmaking'? For me, this work is only the beginning of a life-long process, the outcomes of which I hope others may be able to use for further research and exploration.

UPDATED 9:18 PM CDT Jun 26, 2014A quick response from bystanders and paramedics helped to save the life of a toddler who wound up in the water at a Kansas City apartment complex pool.
Video TranscriptOVER THE WEEKEND, NOT MUCH RELIEF IN SIGHT. THE HUMIDITY STAYS HIGH AND SO DOES THE TEMPERATURE. A TODDLER IS ALIVE TONIGHT AFTER NEARLY DROWNING IN A POOL SHE WAS FLOATING IN THE WATER AT A NORTH LAND PASSAGE APARTMENTS. WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS CASE WAS AN OBSERVANT BYSTANDER AND PARAMEDICS WHO WERE JUST BLOCKS AWAY WHEN THE GIRL STOPPED BREATHING. I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING LIKE THAT WOULD HAPPEN RIGHT HERE. THIS MAN SAYS IT'S HARD TO SEE HOW A CHILD CAN FALL IN THE WATER IN HIS COMMUNITY POOL LONG ENOUGH TO STOP BROTHERING. I WAS SURPRISED. IF I SAW THAT I DEFINITELY WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. PARAMEDICS SAID THE GIRL WAS SITTING ON THE EDGE OF THE POOL SPLASHING HER FEET AND A WITNESS SAW HER FACE DOWN AND SAID IS THAT KID OK AND SOMEONE PULLED HER TO SAFETY. SHE'S VERY LUCKILY SOMEONE NOTICED HER. PARAMEDICS STATIONED BLOCKS AWAY WERE THERE MOMENTS AWAY. THE INCIDENT FOLLOWS A DEADLY WEEK ON METRO AREA WATERS WITH SEVERAL DROWNINGS, INCLUDING THAT OF A 7-YEAR-OLD. THAT'S TRAGIC. WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A LIFEGUARD AT EVERY POOL. THAT LITTLE GIRL WHO NEARLY DROWNED TODAY WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL AND IS EXPECTED TO BE OK. REPORTING LIVE IN THE NORTH

WASHINGTON: The US special envoy to Af-Pak, Marc Grossman, is stepping down after leading the American diplomatic campaign in the volatile region for two years as President Barack Obamas pointsman to the crucial zone. His resignation would come into effect from December 14. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, had roped in Grossman, a former State Department diplomat, after the sudden death of Richard Holbrooke, in 2010. The Secretary (of State) thanks Ambassador Grossman for his efforts to help create the diplomatic surge that Secretary Clinton laid out in her 2011 speech at the Asia Society, the spokesperson for the Special US Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan, Eileen OConner, told The Cable. What youve seen over the last year is his effort to lead a diplomatic campaign which put in place a network of regional and international support for Afghanistan post 2014 and into the next decade, she said. Grossman plans to return to private life. |

I tested these with a Crosman 1377 and Winchester 1029-S.
On the Winchester 1029-S they had a 1-inch POI shift with a 0.375 CTC grouping. I measured 995 FPS. While tighter than Crosman Wadcutter on same rifle (0.5 CTC) the POI shift invalidates them for this rifle. May work better at a slower speed.
For some reason on the Crosman 1377 I had two separate groups with 0.125 centers each separated by 0.375. I don't know if this size or weight deviation.
Pros:Cheap, groups well in rifle, but strangely in pistol.Cons:Major POI shift over Crosman Destroyer and Crosman Wadcutter with faster rifle, but expect to see an improvement at a slower speed. |

I was pleasantly surprised after shooting a number of these pellets. I've encountered no problems with accuracy, since they compare favorably with more expensive pellets. They're also clean on the fingers. I've used them in all my airguns, springer, pump and CO2, with much success.

These pellets are awful !!! I received them "free" due to purchase of Hatsan 1000S and they are CRAP !!! I lined the rifle up with RWS Super H and could shoot groups about the size of a golfball at 30 yds. I tried these pellets and could not even hit the 16" X 16" target.....anywhere !!! I understand now, why that they were "FREE" !!! I also had some PBA Platinum pellets from another gun and they were grouping less than a quarter at 30 yds. I think I will stick with the PBA's since the gun seems to like them !!!

San Diego, CA
San Diego—Oct. 29, 2012—NewSchool of Architecture and Design (NSAD) President Steve Altman, speaking at the school's convocation ceremony on Oct. 19 at Copley Symphony Hall in San Diego, encouraged students and faculty to take advantage of global education and learning opportunities in design and architecture fields. He also recognized NSAD's contributions over the past year to environmental sustainability, urban engagement and preparing students for practice.
"We continue to improve and grow NewSchool of Architecture and Design into a global leader in higher education. We are building on a comprehensive program to internationalize the campus by bringing more international students to our campus, and encouraging more of our students to study abroad," said Altman during the event that marked the start of the school year for almost 600 students at NSAD.
Altman reminded attendees that students can spend a term studying abroad at other institutions in the Laureate International Universities (LIU) network. He also highlighted the participation of NSAD in the tri-continental architecture master's program offered through Universidad Europea de Madrid—which includes study opportunities at NSAD and schools in Spain and China. Additional collaborative opportunities are being developed with Media Design School in New Zealand and Domus Academy in Italy—all part of the LIU network.
The convocation ceremony also included a presentation by guest speaker Rob Wellington Quigley, FAIA, a well-known designer and architect of San Diego's new downtown public library. Quigley emphasized the value of a global education, remarking that one of the values of studying abroad is in how the experience impacts students and their work when they return home with a different perspective.
During the event, Altman announced the hiring of NSAD's new provost, Henri T. de Hahn, who is currently department head of the architecture program at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Altman thanked Acting Provost Kurt Hunker and announced that Hunker will become NSAD director of graduate programs and graduate architecture program chair. In other faculty news, NSAD Construction Management Program Chair Linda Thomas-Mobley will step into the newly created post of dean of academic and student affairs, while George Welch takes on the role of acting construction management program chair.
In addition to the school's global education initiatives, Altman also emphasized the school's three other "pillars"—environmental sustainability, urban engagement and preparation for practice—and a number of students and faculty members were recognized for their achievements during convocation. The NSAD Staff Member of the Year Award went to Laura Wilson, academic advising manager, and the Faculty Member of the Year Award went to Bruce Matthes, chair of general education. Student awards for academic and/or design excellence went to: Kasi Schnell, Tara Avery, Scott Hook, Quinn McCarron, Philip Auchettl, Liz Marie Oyas, Miguel Esobar-Evans, Morgan Blaydes, Anthony Salamone, Ramiro Martinez, Alexander Pisch, Brenda Licea, Gary Lewis, Robert Smith and Ba Le.

The Murder of Mary Phagan
The Murder of Mary Phagan, a 1987 two-part TV miniseries made by Orion Pictures Corporation and distributed by National Broadcasting Company (NBC), is a dramatization of the story of Leo Frank, a factory manager charged and convicted with murdering a 13-year-old girl, a factory worker named Mary Phagan, in Atlanta, Georgia in 1913. The trial was sensational and controversial. After Frank's legal appeals had failed, the governor of Georgia in 1915 commuted his death sentence to life imprisonment. In 1915 Frank was kidnapped from prison and lynched by a small group of prominent men of Marietta, Georgia. The film features Jack Lemmon, Kevin Spacey, Rebecca Miller, Charles Dutton, Peter Gallagher, Cynthia Nixon, Dylan Baker, and William H. Macy.

For the past three years, "Mighty Breaks" has been the epicenter of San Francisco's strong breakbeat scene, offering up DJs and performers that stretch the genre's definition. Mighty Breaks parties range in offerings from chunky, hip-hop–based party jams and freaky electro beats to blistering drum 'n' bass rattlers. The event celebrates its birthday with its all-star crew of local DJs, including Tamo, Murphstar, the Geometrist, Aaron Pope, and Shissla on Friday, Jan. 25, at Mighty at 10 p.m. Admission is $5; call 762-0151 or visit www.mighty119.com for more info. — Tamara Palmer
Techno music can be wrongly associated with an all-guns-and-bravado attitude, characterized by pummeling 4/4 kick drums and cold, percussive-based arrangements. São Paulo's Gui Boratto does much to dispel that myth. His heady approach to minimal techno yanks your head in first, whereupon your ass just may follow. Tracks like "The Blessing" or "Beautiful Life" from his 2007 album, Chromophobia (on German techno label Kompakt), combine thin, percolating midtempo beats with chirpy synth riffs and glossy, ambient flourishes, creating a warm vibe that works equally well for both dancefloor and at-home listening. Gui Boratto performs live on Friday, Jan. 25, at Fat City at 9 p.m. Admission is $12-$15; visit www.blasthaus.com for more info. — Tim Pratt
"Eggs" is a club night consistently delivering under-the-radar techno and experimental electronic sounds. This month, it plays host to an American dance music icon: Lady Miss Kier, the vivacious lead singer of Deee-Lite, the early-'90s act behind "Groove Is in the Heart." Since that hit's heyday, Kier has stayed active as a DJ, playing a wider range of tunes than the discofied songs that were Deee-Lite's signature. She was even an early champion of London's drum 'n' bass movement. It's a safe bet that her DJ set for "Eggs" will not play it safe on Saturday, Jan. 26, at Mezzanine at 9 p.m. Admission is $15; call 625-8880 or visit www.mezzaninesf.com for more info. — T.P.

How long does it take a kitten to get used to new food? Please help!
Hi all,
I have two 10 week old kittens, and they were in a pretty horrible home before and had to be taken out rather quickly. So, we don't know what food they were on before, so we put them on dry biscuits. Gizmo is perfectly fine no problems, but our little Loki has a bit of a dodgy stomach. Sometimes his stools are much firmer, but others are like liquid. He's still eating and drinking perfectly fine, and seems OK. He's been deflead, dewormed and had his first jabs. He's been with us since last Saturday (24th) I'm just wondering if it's the new food/new surroundings and how long it might take him to get used to it? Or if there's something I can give him to help his stomach. I'm based in the UK if this helps. I just feel horrible that he might be poorly, especially as he keeps stepping in it too, and we keep having to have emergency paw washes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance. |

My kitten is now 7 months old and still has soft stool, though occasionally there are some firm pieces. His gas is really bad. This morning I heard him fart for about 5 seconds. He has been treated for worms twice a month apart. I think the intestines need time to recover from de-worming treatment.
We mix 4 different kinds of dry food together, and give him canned, also. |

When our stray litter were kittens, they were very touchy on food...even if it was the same brand but a different flavor. Once/week, I opened a capsule of acipophilous and it seemed to help, mixed into their canned food.
As for how long it takes to adjust to new food...I thought you meant to decide to eat it. I am trying to switch our cats to EVO and they ate the canned at first and now, it is touch and go and rarely touch. They have exhibited gas even as adults with new food introduction, so I suppose it is like people upping their fiber...just the nature of the beast. |

I never (or very rarely) buy the same thing twice for my cats. I always switch the brand of food that I have fed them every time they run out of food. That said, I do have about 3-4 favorites that I will rotate between from now on. I also do canned and raw to get variety in their diet. I haven't had a problem with them not doing well on a food and I switch pretty much cold turkey.

I can understand, it can be quite discouraging when there are no responses. But I just realised, sometimes its cos those who view do not have the experiences or any suggestion to offer. I for one, have no experience with kittens, so nothing to suggest, sorry for going off topic.

Has a stool sample been tested? Giardia and coccidia are two microscopic parasites that would not be covered by a basic deworming.
The stress of rehoming and new food could be causing their system to be upset. Could be an intolerance for the food, especially if it's a low quality brand (what brand are you feeding?). Or even an allergy to a particular protein or grain. If the stool test hasn't been done, that should be first. If negative, I would try some canned pumpkin, the fiber helps to bulk up the stool. A probiotic and digestive enzymes wouldn't hurt either. Overeating can also cause diarrhea. Kittens should be allowed to eat their fill, but not pig out and stuff themselves. And read up around here about food quality and the need for canned food (if you're not already educated on cat nutrition).
