Cox Drops 29 on Tornado; Women's Basketball Remains One Back of Coker for Final Playoff Spot with 84-61 Win over King
February 18, 2012
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Scoring a game-high 29 on 11-of-19 shooting (58%), Brittany Cox (Winston-Salem, NC) once again led Pfeiffer University to victory with an 84-61 win over King College in Conference Carolinas womens basketball action in the Merner Gym on Saturday night. The Lady Falcons improve to 13-11 overall, 8-7 in league play staying just one game back of Coker, while the Tornado fall to 4-21, 4-13.
After Kelly Jackson (Lynchburg, VA) put King up 9-4 just 3:38 into the first, a pair of Kellie Rhoney (Catawba, NC) free throws started a 9-0 run that helped give the Lady Falcons a lead for the rest of the night. Before long, a three-pointer from Cox and pair of free throws by Jodie Lemons (Madison, NC) put Pfeiffer in complete control up 14, 27-13, with 6:05 to play before the break. Brooke Johnson (Roan Mountain, TN) got King to within 11 with just under a minute remaining before Shelley Reese (Brown Summitt, NC) drained two from the charity stripe to give Pfeiffer a 13-point, 37-24 halftime advantage.
In the second half, Rhoney jumped the lead up to 21 with a layup at the 14:51 before a Cox three countered a Johnson layup for King to put the hosts back up 22. The Tornado would get as close as 17 on free throws from Allison Bosse (Knoxville, TN) and layup by Kalen Collins (Wise, VA) with six minutes left until Pfeiffer again used Cox and Reese over the final minutes to earn a 23-point victory.
Behind Coxs game-high 29, Rhoney finished the night with 14 while Reese connected for 12. Rhoney flirted with another triple-double added seven rebounds and six assists. Pfeiffer shot 45% for the game while knocking down 17-of-21 attempts (81%) from the free throw line. Johnson, along with Alley Sprouse (Newport, TN), paced the Tornado with 14 apiece.
Pfeiffer still remains one back of Coker for the easts final playoff spot with just two games left. The Lady Falcons head to Barton on Tuesday while Coker hosts Queens, before the two teams square off in next Fridays regular season finale in the Merner Gym. Tip time at Barton on Tuesday is 5:30 p.m. with live stats and video being available through http://www.gofalconsports.com.

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
Most often as part of a combination HIV antibody/antigen test, to screen for infection with Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV); less commonly, as an individual test to screen for HIV after a recent exposure
When to Get Tested?
As part of a combination test, at least once if you are age 13-64 years; annually if you are at increased risk for HIV; as an individual test, soon after you think you have been exposed to HIV
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm or by a fingerstick
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
HIV is the virus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). The p24 antigen is an HIV viral protein and the level in the blood is typically elevated early in the course of infection, before antibodies to the virus have been produced. This test detects the p24 antigen to screen for early HIV infection. Typically, it is performed as part of a combination test (HIV antibody/p24 antigen). Less commonly, it is performed as an individual test.
When HIV enters the body, such as through contact with the blood or body fluids of an infected individual or exposure to a contaminated needle, the virus begins to replicate itself, producing a large number of copies. During the first few weeks of infection, the amount of virus (viral load) and the p24 antigen level in the blood can be quite high. The affected person typically experiences flu-like symptoms that resolve as the body's immune system begins to produce antibodies directed against HIV. Both virus and p24 antigen levels decrease in the blood as the initial infection resolves and the level of HIV antibody increases. In untreated persons, the infection then simmers for a decade or more, causing few symptoms but slowly degrading the immune system.
With the diminishing immune response, eventually symptoms of AIDS emerge and begin to progressively worsen. HIV viral loads and viral protein levels increase. The weakened immune system leaves the affected person vulnerable to debilitating infections. Treatments for AIDS suppress the amount of HIV virus present in the blood and limit its ability to replicate, thereby slowing damage to the immune system. Increases and decreases in HIV are mirrored with increases and decreases in p24 antigen.
The use of the p24 antigen test as an individual test has declined somewhat. However, combination tests that detect both p24 antigen and HIV antibody have been developed and are used to increase the likelihood of detecting HIV infection soon after exposure to the HIV virus. Still, the p24 test as an individual test may be used in areas where resources are limited and where molecular tests are not as widely available.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

POTENTIALLY deadly blue-green algae has been found on Windermere.
The Environment Agency says it has found evidence of an algal bloom at Low Wray Bay, prompting South Lakeland District Council to issue a warning.
The authority said anyone using lakes, rivers and reservoirs should treat all blue-green algae blooms with caution and contact should be avoided as skin rashes and illness may occur if the water is swallowed.
Farmers and pet owners should also prevent livestock and animals coming into contact or drinking the affected water, as it can sometimes prove fatal for animals.
SLDC's environmental health team leader, Tracy Howard, said: "Blue-green algae can potentially make people feel quite ill if swallowed or even by just swimming in it.
"We just want people to be aware of the affects and are asking people to be extra careful and vigilant when using the lakes and rivers for recreational purposes during the summer months.
"The public should observe any notices near affected areas and avoid contact or drinking the water."
Many waters are vulnerable to problems with the algae, typically between June and November.
Experts say all blue-green algal blooms should be assumed to be toxic.
The blooms vary in colour from discoloured green, blue-green, greenish brown, or reddish brown.
Further information about blue-green algae can be found on the Environment Agency's website at www.environment-agency.gov.uk
A GOVERNMENT appointed planning inspector has ruled that an ancient Lake District fell pass is out of bounds for motorised vehicles.
The decision by the Secretary of State to make Garburn Pass, between Troutbeck and Kentmere, a 'restricted byway' follows three years of legal argument.
It means that any motorist or motorcyclist using the pass is committing a criminal offence and could face serious legal consequences.
The inspector went through hundreds of pages of documents ranging from maps of 1822, guide books of the 1880s, and photographs of motorbikes using the pass in the 1920s.
The Lake District National Park Authority has also announced that thanks to around £55,000 of Government funding invested in repairs following the 2009 floods, the pass is probably in better condition than it has been for hundreds of years.
"The storms of November 2009 badly damaged both sides of the pass, especially the western side where the track effectively became a river, and most of the surface ended up on the main road," said National Park Countryside Access Adviser Nick Thorne.
"We were able to obtain significant funding under the Paths for the Public Project, funded by Defra, the Rural Development Programme for England, and Cumbria County Council. And we have now completely rebuilt the worst affected areas in three stages with the work being carried out by our own staff, the National Trust, and a local contractor."

Civilian agencies set to release sequestration details to employees
Tuesday - 2/5/2013, 6:25pm EST
Civilian federal agencies are expected to begin telling employees how automatic budget cuts set to go into effect in March will impact them, according to federal employee unions who were briefed by Obama administration officials.
The Office of Management and Budget gave agency heads the go-ahead to begin communicating to their employees as early as Tuesday about the possible effects of sequestration, including employee furloughs.
The automatic cuts, slated to hit March 1, would require an 8.2 percent across-the-board cut to agency budgets.
OMB and the Office of Personnel Management briefed federal-employee union officials Monday.
The notices that agencies send to employees will not serve as an actual notice of furlough, according to a statement from National Treasury Employees Union President Colleen Kelley. Instead, the agency guidance will present a range of options to be taken should the budget cuts be implemented.
That includes reviewing contract spending for potential savings and cutting back on travel and training.
In a memo issued last month, OMB told agency heads to "intensify" their planning for sequestration, including considering reducing civilian workforce costs through hiring freezes and buyout offers. But OMB directed agencies not to take any immediate actions at that time.
Will unions be kept in the loop?
Administration officials reassured union leaders that agencies should keep federal unions informed of their sequestration plans. Kelley said NTEU has been trying to wrest information about the impact of the cuts.
"However, NTEU does not yet have specific details of what agencies are planning," she said in a statement. "NTEU is asking agencies to first examine government contracts and look to make cuts in those programs, as well as other cost-cutting measures that can be taken before considering furloughs."
The American Federal of Government Employees denounced the earlier guidance from OMB for imposing a "disproportionate sacrifice" of the planning on federal workers as opposed to reducing contract spending. AFGE President J. David Cox continued that line of criticism with the latest announcement.
"OMB has served up a buffet of cuts for agencies to make to the federal workforce in the event that sequestration takes effect beginning March. ... Yet OMB still hasn't given agencies any useful or explicit guidance for reducing spending on service contracts," Cox said in a statement. "According to this latest memo, OMB is still examining contracts, grants and other expenditures to determine where spending reductions might be made."
Another sequestration delay?
The Defense Department has also issued sequestration-planning guidance to its components. Many of the services, such as the Army and the Air Force, have put a freeze on civilian hiring in the face of ongoing budget uncertainty. The Navy has also begun implementing two rounds of budget cutbacks.
Meanwhile, President Barack Obama asked Congress Tuesday to delay the implementation of sequestration — which lawmakers have already done once — and instead focus on a short-term deficit-reduction package.
However, congressional Republican leaders pounced on Obama's proposal, saying additional tax hikes to reduce the deficit are off the table.
And even federal unions are looking askance at another sequestration delay.
"Kicking the can down the road may be a good option for elected officials, but it does nothing to relieve the pressure on federal workers living in fear of a furlough notice landing on their desk," said National Federation of Federal Employees President William Dougan.
Dougan, who likened sequestration to "taking a hatchet to one area of the budget," said federal employees are seeking real solutions to the budget challenges.

Comments about Incredibell Road Bell:
The product installs remarkably easily and ends up in a great spot, leaving the cockpit less cluttered than any other bell I've used.
It installs under a rubber flap on Shimano brifters. The flap reconnects securely to the bell, but a small opening remains. For my all-weather rides, I am somewhat worried about water and grit getting into the internal mechanisms.

If your doctor suspects you might have kidney disease or damage, he or she may perform a biopsy of your kidney.
During a biopsy a doctor removes a small sample of your kidney tissue to examine under a microscope, according to the Mayo Clinic.
The Mayo Clinic states that biopsies are typically conducted by inserting a thin needle into the patient's skin to obtain the tissue sample. According to the Mayo Clinic, doctors usually use an imaging device to help guide the needle.
Once the tissue sample is obtained, doctors will carefully examine it under a microscope to look for signs of damage or disease.

Arizona Coyotes
Phoenix Coyotes Shane Doan: Lockout 'tarnished' the sport
A deal to end the NHL lockout was finally reached after an arduous 113 days on Sunday. The league and players' association agreed on a new 10-year deal to end the latest labor stoppage which cost the league 34 games.
A shortened season has now been tentatively set to begin on January 19, and no one is happier to return to the ice than Phoenix Coyotes captain Shane Doan.
Doan, who served as an instrumental part of the players' union during the labor negotiations, told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Monday he feels the lockout did indeed leave a negative mark on the NHL.
"As a player you work your whole life and you give up everything you can and sacrifice a lot to become a National Hockey League player and right or wrong you take pride in that when you accomplish that and you are very proud to say �I am a member of that' and I believe that during the lockout it's tarnished," Doan said.
"It bothers you that you've worked so hard to achieve something that's being tarnished and I think it's good that it's over and that we can move on and we can forget about it because it eats at you."
The Coyotes' captain said he felt a sense of embarrassment about the length of the lockout but at the same time he truly believed the cause the players' union was fighting for was critically important and he's satisfied with the deal they were able to obtain.
"I believe the pension we got is so instrumental to our union and our group," Doan stated. "So the pension was a major thing we couldn't have gotten three months ago but at the same time I really wish we didn't have to go three months."
Doan said the players are now committed to winning back potentially disgruntled fan bases, who he feels are owed an apology.
"Our goal is to prove that it hasn't [been tarnished] and bring back that pride and bring back that honor that goes along with being a player and I think we will," Doan said.
Doan acknowledged it will be hard for players, like himself, who haven't been in Europe or in the minors getting regular game action to get back into playing shape and use to the daily grind again.
"You might be able to skate ok and you might be able to do everything okay, but the physicality of the game you just can't practice that. You have to have games to do that and it might take a couple of games to get that kind of rust knocked off and back going again," Doan stated.
It may take a few games to get back into the swing of things for Doan and the Coyotes but he is confident the team will still be able to build off the momentum of last season's enthralling playoff run.

The only back up I ever purchased so far was Gucci Pour Homme II. Great scent, decent price.
So, I was just thinking to myself the other day. When do you guys go out and buy back up bottles. When is a fragrance so special to you that you know you have to have another bottle as back up? This idea came to be as I was smelling my original formulation of Dior Homme Sport and how much I enjoy that scent. Even though its 90% full, I am wondering if I should try to find a back up bottle or just deplete that bottle and buy the reformulated version. The problem is I don't know when that would be. But anyways, enough about me, what are your experiences with back up bottles?
The only back up I ever purchased so far was Gucci Pour Homme II. Great scent, decent price.
The only back up bottles I own are 4 of the vintage 100ml Gengis Khan
Back up bottles of vintage M7. Never want to run out and the price just goes up as it becomes harder to find. No need or desire to have any other back up bottles.
Some Favorites
1. Amouage Epic man
2. Dior Leather Oud
3. Perris Monte Carlo Oud Imperial Black
4. Le Labo Patchouli 24
5. Amouage Opus VII
6. Byredo Bullion
7. Masque Milano Russian Tea
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
I have 2 backups of original Dior Homme, and will likely grab a couple cans of Rive Gauche before they're gone. If you really like DHS you should act fast cuz it won't be around for much longer.
I've got 4 3.4 oz bottles of DHI reform, and 1 vintage left. It's too amazing to ever be without. Too hard to get a bottle of since its not available at most places. Plus if they ever discontinued it I would cry.
I've got 3 big bottles of vintage D&G ph.
3 back ups of Chergui.
3 bottles of Aventus.
3 Millesime Imperial
And 3 Versace Dreamers
This is the stuff I wear always and I can't be without. Might as well stock up!
Money permitting, I usually have a backup bottle of my favorite frags in my collection. It makes me feel better to know that I won't run out any time soon. I also tend to buy backup bottles the moment I hear that a fragrance that I own and like has been discontinued, or when a significant reformulation has occured (such as L'artisan Voleur de Roses as a recent example).
I actually went through my collection the other day and made a list of stuff that I need to stock up on before it gets discontinued or reformulated (if it hasnt already been). I am still in the process of editing though.
I have a backup of:
Creed Royal English Leather
Gucci Pour Homme II
Dior Homme Sport (2008)
Dior Homme Sport (2012)
Dirty English
Mugler Pure Malt
Mugler Pure Havane
by Kilian Straight to Heaven
I will be picking up a backup of Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche soon. And probably several other this summer...
1 of Vintage Zino Davidoff.
30ml Amber Absolute.
Seeking a backup bottle if Carven Homme.
Primarily because these are discontinued. Though I imagine it will take some time before I use up the primary bottles, I would hate to find that they are impossible to find or impossibly expensive once I do run out.

I wish I could get more good bottles of vintage D&G ph. Out of about 7 bottles I've purchased, only 3 actually were still nice and fresh.
Out of the regular market parfums (excluding mass marketed parfums) that get rated 10 on 10 (collectively on BN / other fragrance forums) - Knize 10, few Serge Lutens, vintage Guerlains, andy Tauer LDDM, Parfum d'Nicolai's NY EDT, MPDGantier's line, exclusive's from Chanel / Dior / Parfumerie Generale to name a few - who knows which among these will b'com the next Jean Patou PH - that's discontinued & not available online / stores? or sells at a ransom ???
& parfum houses with 1 grt or unique hit (example IMO - Or Black from Pascal Morabito - many other such examples exist)
& any renowned parfum house's extrait's that are typically ltd editions.
& Thierry Mugler limited editions - (even if they aren't 10/10 for many, including myself, they sell for almost double their original cost within 6-8 months of their release)
(as fyi, Serge Lutens cuir mauresque is apparently discontinued now, however readily available online)
I would like to have 1500ml back up of my three favorites. This should be a lifetimes supply.
Building up that reserve takes time.
Why do I want that much jucie? Because I want the original to last my life, and not reformulations that lack richness and depth.
Vintage Kouros rocks
Dior Homme Intense.
This is the only back up I ever purchased. I found a very good offer for a 100ml sealed box from 2009.
I only get back-up bottles when they are going cheap to very cheap, which usually indicates they're on their way to discontinuation.
Though the last back-ups I bought were as a result of a typing error, when I bought two 125mm bottles of Tabarome Millesime which were mysteriously going for $67 each on a web site, while all the other similar Creeds were $167.

I'm looking to get back ups of vintage Eau d'Hermes and Helmut Lang EdC. If the version I'm loving isn't discontinued, I never buy back ups.
I have back up bottles, plenty of gucci envy, Pour homme one, edition blanche, dior homme... But I just realise i will never going to use them all, so I am selling most of them. I don't want to own more then 20 bottles (100ml)
I own a few backup bottles of A*Men: Taste of Fragrance and just bought 100ml of Gucci PH II. It is "me in the bottle" and all girlfriends were crazy about it so I can not be without it.
TOP 3 hot weather:
1. Gucci Pour Homme II
2. Lalique Encre Noire
3. Creed Millesime Imperial
TOP 3 cold weather:
1. Dior Homme
2. Eau Des Baux
3. L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme
I have 3 Backup bottles of DHI (Original) and 1 bottle of Versace Dreamer.
The only backup I have is Creed Vetiver 48. Ate the moment I have about 600 ml of this juice!! Simply my favourite Creed
None. As I don't have a signature scent, all of my bottles will last me a lifetime?
As many as possibly, but honestly speaking, reasonably functional and affordable considering my current fragrance habits, 3-4 full 100 ml+ bottles and only of the few my absolute favorites in my wardrobe would largely do.
Millesime Imperiale x 75ml
Fahrenheit x 50ml
Burberry London x 100ml
Gucci Pour Homme II x 100ml
Rive Gauche (Tin Can) x 125ml
One back up Bottle of Krizia Uomo
One back up bottle of Giorgio Beverly Hills for Men.
I used to have bunches, but now I'm thinning my collection and only have one small backup of Dior Homme original, and one bottle of a nice smelling batch of Millesime Imperial. When they're gone, they're gone.
Aiming to focus on no more than 20 bottles at a given time.
Current Top Five:
1. Creed Green Irish Tweed
2. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino
3. Hermes Concentre d'Orange Verte
4. Bond No. 9 New Haarlem
5. Creed Original Vetiver
A friend of mine has, and I could see with my eyes, 15 bottles of YSL M7.....
Two back-up bottles of vintage M7 by YSL, and a used back-up bottle of Envy for Men by Gucci.
Back up bottles might be used for brands that reformulate often, signature scents you don't want to lose, scents that are about to be discontinued or produced in few amounts, and of course classic/vintages with great value.
Bad girls don't cry but get even.
When: When you find it for a really good deal.
Why: Because I can't justify any other reason to buy a backup.
How many: 0-1
So far I only own a Egoiste Backup. But will definitely get more of the stuff I love as a backup.
I have quite a few back-up bottles, but I never buy more than one of any particular fragrance since my collection is so large. I buy them when I can get a great deal or when they are being discontinued. I don't back-up everything either, only my favorites.
Never. Life's way too short to obsess over such trivial matters.
only back up on my favs
don't like reformulation or discontinued on the frags that i love
back up bottles that i have are
sycamore, leather oud, musc tonkin and pdn new york
AUSSIES, join our exclusive niche split club.

The Different Company - Oud Shamash, Oud for Love and Aurore Nomade
Guerlain - Sous Le Vent, Angélique Noire, Bois d'Armenie, Cruel Gardenia, Rose Barbare
and many more niches up for split...
You're totally right about that - but at times I've gotten caught up in the moment of saying "OH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH HAVE TO HAVE A BACK UP" without good logic behind it...then end up never using the first bottle I've gotten better at this.
I did go for backup on vintage Dior Homme since it's discontinued... that on I don't regret.
I'll consider getting a backup if my first one was a small (< 5 mL) or medium (7-8 mL) mini, or a decant of any size, because I know that they can evaporate over the years. I find it almost impossible to predict which decants will evaporate, even among those from the same source. Still, I'll just backup a decant with another decant if I can't find a bottle under 30 mL available, because even if I love the stuff I still don't want 50 mL.
That being said, I have a few commercial 15 mL spray minis that I bought two of because I was convinced at the time that they'd be my all-time favorite and I was used to buying 30 mL bottles.
I frankly have too long of a rotation lineup, so over the years, I've gotten less and less attached to some of my "favorite" scents. Even if everything I own FBs or decants of gets discontinued, I have enough interesting vials that are just begging for me to buy a FB of, that I'd replace FBs with those. Many are niche and (hopefully) less prone to reformulation or discontinuation.
I only have backups for three:
Rive Gauche PH - 2 backups of the tin can because I love it, it's inexpensive and they are not making it anymore.
Tuscany per uomo - 1 backup bottle of the original formula. Awesome stuff
Fahrenheit - 1 backup just because I love it, and my wife got me a gift set for Christmas
Never. No point. None.
aramis bermuda tonic. minotaure. issey miyake and prada
I would love a backup of Gucci Envy so I feel like I could actually use it. That and more Tribute. That might be it.
Vintage bottles of:
- Antaeus 1
- Macassar (4 vintage, 1 reformulated)
- Eau de Rochas ph 6
- Envy for men 3
- Ungaro III 1
Kouros Fraicheur 2
Boss Spirit 2
Gucci Nobile 1
Because i love their smell and my tastes are quite permanent. And i hate the idea that i'd run off something (not just fragrances.). In fact i get nearly physically sick just by thinking of such scenario.
"Le parfum est la musique du corps"
(Marcel Rochas)
I get back-ups of stuff that I love and that it's not particularly easy to find.

Had a backup bottle of Il Profumo - Musc Bleu, unfortunately switched the opened bottle for Rancé - Josephine. That turned out to be a disapointment since the Rancé bottle had been stored without care and therefore had turned from green flowers to glue.
When/if my interest in sampling fragrances fade or at least settles into normal proportions I will invest in backups of my most beloved fragrances. Or at least that is what I'd wish - I'll have to save some money to be able to do that.
I have a 100ml backup of the reformulated Dior Homme Intense and a 50ml bottle of the vintage juice. 3 bottles total. I have backups because it is my #1 all time favorite scent and I will never be without it. If it ever reaches the verge of discontinuation, I will most definitely pick up another 2-3 bottles.
1 100ml backup of Gucci Pour Homme II due to the recent rumors of it being discontinued and plus I love this one to death also.
1 100ml backup of Pure Malt just due to the fact that you never know when it may become scarce again. It was a blind buy and I couldn't resist but to pick up 2 bottles while I had the chance.
I have 2 100ml bottles of Gucci Envy, one I bought and the other was a gift. Either way, it is rare enough to warrant keeping both bottles.
I plan on buying backups of LIDGE, Rive Gauche (tin can), Gucci Pour Homme I and M7 vintage if I can find them for under $100.
1. Dior Homme Intense
2. Creed Aventus
3. Tom Ford Extreme
4. Gucci Pour Homme II
5. Terre d'Hermes
2 bottles of 100ml of Tea for Two for me and mom. She is so hooked on it
Jazz YSL vintage 2 big bottles and 2 small ones
Tuscany per uomo vintage 5 big bottles
Eau savage extreme 2 big bottles
SL Borneo 2 x 50 ml bottles
Gucci ph II 4 big bottles
Davidoff silver shadow 4 50 ml bottles
Costume National Scent intense 1 big bottle and a 50 ml one
Gianfranco Ferrè uomo 3 big bottles
jean Desprez Versailles 2 big bottles
Red for men 2 big bottles
Fendi Uomo 2 big bottles
several others I can't remember!
- - - Updated - - -
well...2 big bottles of M7 vintage, 2 big bottles of GrigioPerla essence...
sailing the Oceans of Boredom...
I have 3 back-up bottles of the 4 oz. Creed Aventus Z01 Batch. I paid $275 for each bottle.
I'd be broke if I had to have 'back up bottles' for everything. Ridiculous idea.
Got a couple, scents that I enjoy a lot but that have been discontinued or reformulated. Also tempted to pick something up if I see it for a really good price at times (mostly resisting the urge though).
Thinking about backups of GPH2, DHI, and LIDGE.
CREED Aventus
Frederic Malle Musc Ravageur
DIOR Homme Intense
Guerlain L'IDGExtreme
Chanel Platinum Egoiste
Chanel Allure Edition Blanche
Jean-Paul Gaultier Le Male
Thierry Mugler Pure Malt
Dior Homme (vintage)
Pure Malt
The Dior because I much prefer the original pre reformulation, Pure Malt because I bought into the hype on re-issue so bought two to avoid searching high and low for an over priced replacement in the future.
When you love a frag, that's it. Gucci Envy for men, I have two bottles, would buy one more and will buy if I bump into it somewhere.

Mountain Hardwear Men's Desna Jacket
Excellent light fleece for midlayer insulation when it's cold and windy or outer layer when it's not windy. Works well for what it's designed for. I've had this fleece for going on three years now and use it on a regular basis for everything from peak bagging to xc skiing to mountain biking to dog walking. All in Alaska, at temps from +50°F (outer layer for anything other than rain) to -45°F (mid layer while xc skiing). I think the other reviewer might have misunderstood the purpose of this jacket… Full review

This jacket is very good and sturdy. It's workwear, but very useful in outdoors or trekking. It is windproof, water resistant, and has good insulation properties. I love this jacket. Watch my review. Watch my review here: Full review
Patagonia Men's Piton Hybrid Hoody
Like wearing super skin. I've owned this for about a year and the first time I put this on in my apartment it felt more luxurious than any other fleece that I'd worn before. It wasn't as warm as my R1 Hoody, but I wasn't overheating or feeling itchy either (traits that I didn't like about R1). I later tested it for the first time on a cool morning camp after waking to 40 degree temps and thought... not super warm, but glad that I had it. I've just started wearing this again over the last two… Full review
ECWCS Gen II Brown Bear Jacket
This is an old school fibre pile jacket made for extreme cold weather. It's not pretty, but it works! I purchased this item a few years ago to replace my old Borglite Pile jacket from the early '80s. I usually wear wool, but for travelling north of the tree line I often wear pile. Pile should not be confused with fleece; they are not the same. Whereas fleece resembles brushed flannel, fibre pile is more like wool shearling. However, because pile does not have a windproof backing it breathes much… Full review
The North Face Boys' Surgent Full Zip Hoodie
Warm and versatile for general use. My son is really enjoying this hoodie. Hiking on a cool mountainside, it kept him warm head to waste. Repelled drizzling rain. Soft feeling. Stylish too. He likes that the outside pockets do not have zippers. No zippers could be a problem but the jacket has inside pockets on each side for storing things more safely and saving the outside pockets for hands. As the day warmed up, it was eventually too hot, and tied nicely around the waste. Great price too! All-around… Full review
Mountain Hardwear Mountain Tech Jacket
Very warm jacket. Great for any use anytime. I have worn this camping, out on dates, and even with dress clothes. I love the underarm ventilation that allows for me to not get too hot in the jacket. I bought this jacket probably close to five years ago. I was in need of a great casual winter jacket. A friend of mine had a navy blue one so I got some information about the jacket and then purchased it. Right away I knew the jacket was very different than anything I have ever owned or used.

This jacket is a great mid-layer and truly helps keep your chest warm when it needs to be. It really is almost too warm for a lot of situations, but not necessarily a bad thing. Tight in the chest with long arms. Keeps you very warm; a great mid layer. Full zipper is nice touch. The pocket on the chest is useless. Sometimes it makes you sweat if it's too warm or you move a lot. Doesn't breathe great for a mid sized jacket. Full review
The North Face Men's Surgent Full Zip Hoodie
Thin insulation at its finest. When I spend my own money on clothes I am pretty particular about what I get in trade for my ducats. In an effort to lighten my pack and keep myself warmer I picked up the Surgent Hoodie for my spring hikes this year. This is my "far away" look. The farther away, the better I look ;) The design isn't groundbreaking, it's a hooded light jacket meant to be worn under a shell or alone as long as it's not windy. What I do like about this particular item is its cut,… Full review
Columbia Men's Steens Mountain Full Zip
You can't beat this jacket for the price. Great as a light jacket in cool temps or a mid-layer for colder temps. The only thing I hate about fleece is that I've got pets and it's next to impossible to get the pet hair out of it. That aside, I love this Columbia fleece jacket and I never, never, ever go backpacking, fishing, or camping without it! I've spent WAY more on fleece only to be disappointed the first time a campfire ember burns a hole through it, a zipper fails, or when it pilled on… Full review

Dean Greyling has been handed a two week ban for his forearm smash on Richie McCaw.
Greyling pleaded guilty to the charge, which saw him flying into a ruck and driving his forearm into the face of a defenceless McCaw.
Greyling has been suspended from all forms of the game for two weeks up to and including 30 September, which means he is available, if selected, for the final Test against the Blacks in Soweto on 7 October.

ProcessControl[SControlLimits] - compute control limits for the S chart
Calling Sequence
SControlLimits(X, n, options)
(optional) sample size
(optional) equation(s) of the form option=value where option is one of confidencelevel, ignore, or sigma; specify options for computing the control limits
The SControlLimits command computes the upper and lower control limits for the S chart. Unless explicitly given, the standard deviation of the underlying quality characteristic is computed based on the data.
The first parameter X is either a single data sample - given as a Vector or list - or a list of data samples. Each value represents an individual observation. Note, that the individual samples can be of variable size.
If X is a single data sample, the second parameter n is used to specify the size of individual samples.
All computations involving data are performed in floating-point; therefore, all data provided must have type realcons and all returned solutions are floating-point, even if the problem is specified with exact values.
For more information about computation in the ProcessControl package, see the ProcessControl help page.
The options argument can contain one or more of the following options.
confidencelevel=realcons -- This option specifies the required confidence level. The default value is 0.9973, corresponding to a 3 sigma confidence level.
ignore=truefalse -- This option controls how missing values are handled by the SControlLimits command. Missing values are represented by undefined or Float(undefined). So, if ignore=false and X contains missing data, the SControlLimits command returns undefined. If ignore=true, all missing items in X are ignored. The default value is true.
sigma=deduce or realcons -- This option specifies the standard deviation of the underlying quality characteristic.
Sample Size: constant
Estimated Sigma: .0106658727196788
Sample Size: variable

I've pretty much decided that I'm going to drop WAR, at least after the first month runs out. It's a good game, with superb PvP and some interesting design decisions. A lot of the game mechanics are very well thought out. But I'm just not enthusiastic about logging in. There are several reasons why:
1. Starting the game makes me angry. Mythic, take a long hard look at the time from clicking the desktop icon to actually playing. Then take a look at WoW. In WAR, it's: login screen (which does not have focus for some reason), launcher, splash screen, splash screen, splash screen, intro movie, splash screen, EULA (!!), main character screen. (Why is there an extra button press if you want to pick another character? Why not go straight to the character select screen?)
In WoW, it's: launcher, login screen, character select. So much shorter, and it gets you into the game so much faster. It's like, "Hey, I want to play WoW" and then I'm in the game actually playing. Blizzard understands that when I click the desktop icon, I actually want to play the game, not fight my way through splash screens, movies, and EULAs.
Just starting a game of WAR is a hassle, and I find I'm always logging in slightly annoyed at the whole process.
2. Combat is not responsive enough. There's a distinct disconnect between pressing a button, the effect happening in game, and the animation on the screen. It's really bad on casters with long cast times, but it's noticeable even on melee characters. On my Witch Hunter, hitting an Execution (finishing move) has no relationship with firing my pistol. Often I end up firing my pistol at a dead body, as the Execution deals damage long before the animation actually happens.
3. A lot of basic functionality needs polish and basic fixes, especially the chat system. This is an MMO. It's defining characteristic is being able to play with other people. The chat system should be as close to perfect as possible. As it is, the chat system is mostly useless, and the game feels very quiet and lonely. There's lots of other subsystems with similar problems, like mail, etc.
4. Trade skills seem excessively complex and unintuitive. I don't think I like the design that requires multiple characters to function. I like being self sufficient to a degree. Even games with more intricate crafting, like A Tale In The Desert, allowed you to create things by yourself. Sure, it was a lot of work, but there's something deeply satisfying about constructing something all by yourself, from gathering the raw materials to producing the finished product. (And shuffling materials between a network of alts does not count.)
5. Probably the biggest reason is that I just haven't found a character class that grabs me. Mechanically, they're all quite well done. I really like the warrior priest mechanics, for example. But in a weird way, it might be because the WAR classes have *really* strong flavor. They're very specific: Human Witch-Hunter, Dark Elf Disciple of Khaine, etc. While WoW classes tend to be more general, more archetypical. Even paladin is a pretty generic class, with lots of room for interpretation. A rogue can be assassin, spy, thief, scout, swords, daggers, maces, dwarf, gnome, etc. But a Witch Hunter is a Witch Hunter.
You can see this in the armor. Looking at the first three paladin raid sets, you have Paladin as Golden Knight, Paladin as Dark Inquisitor, and Paladin as Gundam (not exactly a traditional paladin interpretation, but sometimes Blizzard is just weird).
I kind of like the freedom of the generic archetype. I like playing a Paladin, I'm not sure I like playing a Warrior Priest of Sigmar. Even though the mechanics of the Warrior Priest are superior to the mechanics of a Paladin.
But maybe I just haven't found the right class for me yet. Perhaps I'll check back in when Mythic adds the Knight of the Blazing Sun.
Anyways, this is not to say that WAR is a bad game. It's actually quite a good game, with lots of intriguing ideas and solid PvP. If you're thinking about trying it, I strongly urge you to give it a go. Even just playing it for only the first month is worth the money in my opinion. You might find it' s the perfect game for you. I just don't think it's the game for me.

Recent Central Lake Reviews
We are coming back
We came up for a long weekend in the fall for my spouses birthday. It was just what a cottage should be. Very cute, decorated nicely, had board games, and old movies, as well as wifi and cable. We noticed they put brand new bathrooms in the house. They also had new beds and a new stove. We just booked again for Summer of 2015. We cannot wait!!!
From the moment we walked into your lovely house on Intermediate Lake, we knew we would love our vacation! The house was immaculate! There was room enough for all EIGHTEEN of us. The walk down to the lake gave us all a good excuse for a little exercise and it was an "easy" walk. The kids, and adults, loved the sand volleyball/badminton court in the back of the house. Many hours were spent there. The kids . . . and again some of the adults . . . really enjoyed the water trampoline. We rented a few Kayaks and explored the shore line on your beautiful lake. Everyone enjoyed that! A few of we gals spent an afternoon in Belaire. There were some cute and unique shops and we enjoyed the outing. And the Family Fare Grocery store was clean and had everything we needed to complete our stay. (With 18 people, we frequently ran out of food . . . and beer!) On our last night we enjoyed having dinner outside at the Dockside. It was fun and delicious! We had no wait (at 5:30) and were able to have 2 tables next to each other . . . one for the kiddies and one for the adults. Super! Tim, you were so helpful in advising me as to what you had and what to expect. You always replied with expediency! Thank you. We only had one rainy day. The kids and grandkids spent that day at Avalanche Water Park and thoroughly enjoyed it. (They brought back delicious pizza for dinner!) My husband and I headed to the Casino for the day. It gave everyone a little "break". I guess if I had any suggestions for improvements, there would only be two: For as many people as your beautiful home can entertain, I wish there had been TWO blue garbage receptacles instead of just one; and the family who slept upstairs sure would have appreciated a "half-bath" in the middle of the night! Again, certainly nothing major . . . just food for thought. All in all we had a GREAT time! Thank you so much for sharing your little piece of heaven with my precious, crazy family. Mary B. P.S. We "owe" you a volleyball. Sorry about that!

Happy New Year everyone! Since it's January, this is the time that I typically start talking about setting goals for the year: all the things you want to do, be, have in 2013. While I would still encourage you to set do, be, have goals and I do every year myself, this year we will take a different approach by looking at the most important area of our lives: personal relationships.
I was reminded of a great exercise from the Steven Covey's Seven Habits of Highly effective people book and workshop. I originally took the three day class back in 1994 and am fortunate enough to be re-taking in now. The work shop taught me several valuable lessons and tools that I still use to this day. I'd like to share one with you now.
Identify the key roles you play in your life, both personal and professional. This list will include things like daughter, wife, sister, manager, church member, mother, friend, volunteer, employee, neighbor, Sunday school teacher etc. etc. etc. Be all inclusive in listing the roles you're in. As an example:
Role: Friend
Role: Aunt
Next, identify a key person or two for each role. For example, as "Mother" you would list your children's names. As "Sunday school teacher, you could list a key student in your class". Example:
Role: Friend Key Person: Friend Mary
Role: Aunt Key Person: Niece Lindsey
Now comes the fun part: imagine it is your 75th birthday. Attending the birthday celebration are the key people from each of your roles. They will each get an opportunity to speak about you, a tribute statement of sorts. What would you WANT them to say about you? How would they describe you and the influence you've had on their lives. What adjectives would they use?
Role: Friend Key Person: Mary
Tribute Statement: always challenged me to be the best person I can be. She encourages me to try new things. And see the positive in everything. She never judges me and I know her friendship is a safe place. She is my biggest cheerleader She smiles a lot.
Role: Aunt Key Person: Niece Lindsey
Tribute Statement: my aunt Tracy has always been like a mother to me. In fact, I call her my "Mother Equivalent" I know she is always there for me, but more than that, she seeks me out and is involved in my life. She calls me often and involved in my daughter's life. We sometimes go on trips together and though I live far away, we occasionally get to celebrate holidays together. I feel very close to her.
Continue making this list and tribute statements for each roll you have in life.
Now here comes the real deal part. I just checked webmd and they say that in 2010, the average life span in the United States was 77.8 years. That puts me well past the middle of my life. I don't yet feel middle aged, but mathematically, I am past mid-life. I don't have unlimited time to do the things we need to do with the people I care about it and neither do you. Start now! What steps can we take to nurture and develop our relationships, to make sure our tribute statements actually come true.
I'm doing pretty good in the friend department, but lately I have not devoted the time and attention I should to my niece Lindsey. Why not? What am I waiting for? What is more important than our relationships? I'm busy? It's January and the Wellness Center is super busy? Again, what are more important than our relationships? This is particularly profound today, as I write this. She works at the Lone Star College in Houston, where the school shootings occurred. Thankfully, she is fine and thankfully, I have another opportunity to be the best Aunt I can be to her. So what steps can I take this year, as a goal, or resolution, or plan or whatever we want to call it that gets me to the tribute statement I want from her?
1. Speak with Lindsey at least one time per week
2. Remember her birthday and her daughter Alyssa's birthday with cards
3. Arrange to spend Thanksgiving together
4. Two random surprises from me this year (could be flowers or anything unexpected).
Identify the people you love and care about. What will you do to devote the time and attention to them NOW and what are you waiting for?

These knitting wools are for finer, softer knits, but with around 50 finer yarns in our ranges, you might wonder where to start. See the options for choosing, by colour, breed or yarn type in the panel on the right.
Please note that ALL 4-ply yarns are priced the same as our DK yarns - now there is NO excuse not to try them and gain the rewarding experience of working with finer yarns!
Why not work with our pure Shetland, Manx or Rare Breed yarns, or choose luscious Blue-faced Leicester, stylish Gotland and Jacob/mohair blends. Try the deep chocolatey Black Welsh Mountain or mix the toning shades of our Shetland blends, our Classic British or other dyed yarns – ideal for patterned socks perhaps? They are normally in 50g balls, unless otherwise described on the Details tab on each individual product page.
As yet we have only a few patterns for 4-ply and finer yarns, but more are on the way and you should find our yarns work for most purchased patterns.
You can also use them to knit a scarf, cowl, shawl or blanket. No pattern is needed – just pick an interesting stitch and repeat to the required width or length – remember that blankets work best in pieces!
Our 4-ply is suitable for machine knitting and you can contact us to request it on cone. Normally each 50 gram ball of 4-ply will be around 175 metres (190 yards) long. As this varies from breed to breed, to be on the safe side you should work on plus or minus 10%. Please see our advice sheets and download the one about the length of wool in a ball or hank.
TENSION/GAUGE: to be sure of tension, you should always knit a sample tension swatch. Generally the knitter is one variable but the pattern is another, depending on the intentions of the designer! As a guideline: for our 4-ply, on 3mm/US 3, UK 11 needles, you will get 28 sts and 34 rows to a 10cm/4" square, while for less elastic worsted spun yarns you will get around 28 sts but only around 30 rows. The WPI is usually 14 in woollen and 18 in worsted spun yarns.

Since Nicky Slater reckons that she is a star for the future, I thought I would get in early and start a fan thread for Jenni Saarinen!
OK, so the fact that I have a specific question I want to ask about her might have something to do with it too...
Ever since I saw Jennis name on the entry list for the 2013 Junior Worlds, I have been wondering something:
Does anybody know if Jenni is in any way related to the (still much-missed) Finnish motorbike racer Jarno Saarinen?
Jarno Saarinen was the 250cc World Champion in 1972, and is still the only Finn to win a tarmac motorcycle world championship. But he died the following year in a crash during the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
As I wasnt born until 12 years after his accident, I dont know anything about Jarnos family. So, I dont know if he managed to have any children, or if he had any siblings, that Jenni might be descended from.
Now, I know from her ISU Bio that Jenni is originally from Espoo, while Jarno was from Turku. Although the 2 towns are 100 miles apart, that is not much in a country as large as Finland. So, it might be possible that they are related in some way.
On the other hand, in a country with as small a population as Finlands, it is possible that Saarinen is a very common surname! So, it might be just coincidence.
I just dont know enough about Finland to judge whether it is plausible.
So, can anybody shed any light on the matter?
Before I go, may I just congratulate Jenni on her results in Junior Worlds. She was the youngest girl in the competition, so to finish 14th overall out of such a big field was brilliant! Considering she is so young, her performances in both the Short (19th/45) and the Free (13th/24) were very impressive.
OK, so she is not yet in the same league as Elena Radionova or Annabelle Prölß, who were born in the same year but are already big stars. But the potential is there...
