Review of anthrax probe extended
Friday - 12/10/2010, 2:25pm EST
HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) - The National Academy of Sciences says it is extending its review of the investigation into the 2001 anthrax mailings to consider new information from the FBI.
The Washington-based academy said Friday that the FBI delivered additional materials last week after it received a draft of the academy's report.
The academy had planned to release the report this month. It now says it will hold one last meeting, probably in January, to hear an FBI presentation on the new material.
The public release is now expected in February.
The academy is reviewing the scientific methods the FBI used in concluding that Army biodefense researcher Bruce Ivins made the anthrax and mailed the letters that killed five people in the fall of 2001.

With ds2 I breastfed until he was 2 and I was 4 months pregnant, and it actually made me nautious each time I breastfed.
With ds3, I thought about weaning when he was 2.5 year old because I was pregnant and it was getting uncomfortable. I decided to stick it out and see how it went. Unfortunately, I lost that pregnancy, but was glad I had continued to breastfeed. I ended up breastfeeding for 3.5 years despite my dh's family being appalled. My ds finally weaned himself and decided that snuggling my "smooshy" belly was just as nice as snuggling my breast. Hey. at least someone liked it that way!
Still breastfeeding my 6mo, loving it and going strong. I'm doing Baby Led Solids and Weaning, and I am so glad that I learned about this. My baby is still a baby, and I know that my breast is best for him right now. I feel in my heart like we've got at least full more year to go.
I'm wondering what comments I'll get from family who weaned around 6mo. Luckily I have a crunchy sister, so if both of us do it then maybe they'll bite their tongue!
Momma to a weaning nursling DS1 (8/10) and expecting #2 (EDD 9/12). DS1 currently Milk, Soy, Egg, Peas, Peanut, & Tree Nut Free (hives/vomiting).
I plan to follow a similar path with this baby, unless I get pregnant sooner, in which case I will probably wean a little more quickly.
Mommy to an exuberant 3 yo and a new one!
DD- 2.75 years. She would have gladly nursed longer, but I was just done. I kept getting thrush, she kept getting thrush. Also, I wanted to just have my body to myself for a while before TTC for the next baby. She was already nightweaned for a while before I decided to stop. She weaned surprisingly easily, with some extra TLC. Then I immediately got pg with DS, so it turned out that I only truly had my body to myself for 10 days.
DS- Almost 2. I'll probably wean him when he gets to 2.5 or so. We may have another baby in a year or two, and I'd like to give myself that little break in between.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength."
― George Orwell, 1984
DS and DD2-- 16 months. I wanted to breasteed them longer, but I have a chronic serious illness that wasn't responding to the "safe" treatments, and I nearly died trying to stay off stronger meds. We then nursed a few times a day, around the dosages, until DD2 had an adverse reaction. So we weaned. It was heartbreaking.
#1: Breastfed without a hitch until around 16-17 months, stopped during my second pregnancy because my milk dried up and bf became very painful. She started again after new baby was born, tandem nursed for a while, and continued nursing until age 5 when she didn't need it any more.
#2: Had latch problems (tongue tie) and supplemented for the first few months, but was mostly breastfed. He weaned at 18 months when we were going through a stressful time in our family. In retrospect I think I mistook a nursing strike for weaning, but I did the best I could under the circumstances.
I am still currently nursing my 4.5yo and 2yo.
Mama to two girls: 5/06 and 3/09
With DS1 I weaned him at 17 months, just because I figured he was old enough. Stupid. Even worse, it was November - right at cold and flu season!
With DS2, I weaned him at 19 months because I was pregnant and nursing was making my skin crawl. I couldn't stand it. I wanted to go longer, but couldn't do it. Luckily he didn't seem to phased by it.
DS3 is 6 months old and we have no babies planned in the future, so I'm shooting for 2 years minimum, longer if he wants.
Bubba (9) Lukey (5) Fat Baby (2) Me
DD: Until just after her second birthday. I was pregnant with ds2, and she had been cutting back for a long time. One day I offered, and she told me "No thanks! That's for babies! I'm not a baby - I'm TWO!" She tried a couple of times after ds2 was born, but she couldn't remember how and wasn't really interested.
DS2: He stopped when he was around 3.5. It was just a gradual thing - he was done, and I was ready to be done.
ds1 BF until 2.5 on demand then i cut down to just nap time and bed as i was preggo and my supply was still there but was really low so it was uncomfortable. He nursed all through pregnancy and then for 9 months after baby was born.
I only stoped because i had one night where we was just attached ALL NIGHT LONG and i felt so drained and dry that i didn't even want to nurse the baby so we had a 'big boy' party and he had a cake with ice cream and some little presents. He fussed and cried for a minute or two for 2 or 3 nights but has been fine since (although he still snuggles and touches and cuddles my 'nurses' all the time.
ds2 is 15 months and going strong.
Ak Hippie mama Yamia DSD '03 DS '07 DS2 '09 & DS3 '12
My seven year old stopped nursing a few weeks ago :( She just hasn't asked for it.....I didn't even see it coming. my 4.5 year old, on the other hand, nurses about 4 times per week. I just found out I am pregnant, about 5 weeks, so it'll be interesting to see if she keeps it up. I am all for tandem nursing :)
#1 self weaned at a year (boy)
#2 self weaned at 15 mo. (girl)
#3 self weaned at 19 mo. (girl) around my third month being pregnant with
#4 self weaned at a year (boy)
I'm not sure why none of them kept going longer...perhaps it was the drop in my production? When they stopped I kept pumping after each in the hopes that they might come back to it and wanted to make sure it was still available...each time I was surprised at how little they were really getting! This last time I kept pumping enough to make some soap...it has always been a dream of mine. :)
I would have loved to keep breastfeeding, but it was very evident that they were not really interested any longer.
DD nursed until she was just about 17mos... She stopped asking for it gradually over two months time and didn't take me up on my offers so I figured she was done and I wasn't going to push it :)
My twins boys self weaned at 2 1/2
S & Y and 2 DS... H (7) and K (3) and a September 2015 baby!
with DD i weaned her at 19 mo because i was pregnant and it hurt so much that i was so cranky and irritated that it wasn't doing either of us any good. DS was 26 months and only because he would only nurse at night, i work, and i wasn't getting any sleep. 2 nights of a bit of fussy time, he has been fine. I and DH still bed share with both of them now 2.5 and 4.5. they are great kids!
DS1 had just turned 2, and I was 5 months pregnant. My milk changed, and he told me, "No more, mommy - it's yucky!" So, that was it, for him. I offered at bedtime, for a couple of nights, but he wasn't interested.
DS2 breastfed until the day of his 6th birthday. We'd talked about it, and had agreed that he would quit when he turned 6. He woke up, asked to nurse, said goodbye, gave them a kiss each & that was it. It was time, for me. I asked, when he was 3, if he'd be done soon & he said, "When I'm 4." 4 came & went, and he said, "When I'm 5." He didn't ask to nurse every day, and for a while, he'd even go a week, or more, without & I'd think, "He's done." Then, he got very sick when he was 5 & had to be hospitalized & given heavy doses of IV antibiotics & started nursing many times a day again. I didn't think he'd really wean, when he turned 6, but I was glad when he did. He still speaks fondly, of nursing.
I was breastfed until I was 4, so the idea of nursing a child past infancy & toddlerhood wasn't exactly an odd concept, to me.
I breastfeed our firstborn, Jamie, exactly 2 years. On his second birthday he pushed his, "Mi-mi's" away, saying, "Bad milk," as I was due with his sister, Julia, in one month. The milk was turning to colostrum.
Julia nursed on demand until she weaned herself at 3-1/2 years...
Our third child, Daniel, came along when Julia was about to wean. She weaned shortly after he was born. She did not seem to mind the taste of the colostrum as much.
Daniel weaned when he was about 3-1/2 to almost 4 years old. I am sixty three and can't remember exactly. All I know is he wanted the comfort more than the milk the last half year.
I breastfed DD until she was 2 1/2 years old. At that point, we threw a "no more mommy's milk party" and weaned her. She was waking up through the night to nurse and once she was weaned, she started sleeping through the night. :) She is almost 5 now and still loves snuggling, cuddling and being close.
#1- about 11 months, I was about 5 months pregnant, my milk dried up, nursing hurt like he**, and was giving me painful contractions. I cried and cried about it, but DD didn't seem nearly as upset!
#2- about 18 months, maybe a bit more. She was a terrible biter, and really annoying about sleep nursing, I finally couldn't take it anymore. When she actually broke the skin I decided enough was enough.
I'm pregnant with #3 and very curious to see how long I will nurse this one, I'm open to nursing much longer if the above scenarios don't repeat, so we will see.
Mama to 3 awesome girls: DD1 born 2001, DD2 born 2002, DD3 born March 2011
I) 8 months--pressure to stop by family
2) 12 months weaned because I had to have surgery and had no idea I could just pump and dump and continue nursing--no support.
3) self weaned at 2yrs
4) self weaned at 6 1/2 yrs (nursed through a pg and tandem nursed)
5) self weaned at 5 1/2 yrs (nursed through a pg and tandem nursed again)
6) still nursing strong at the age of 3 1/2yrs
DS also nursed for 2y7m and again the feelings returned where I couldnt contain the rage and I realized that for me that was just my natural limit and I stopped feeling guilty. Though I would still have loved to have been able to nurse until they self weaned it wasnt something I was capable of.

DS1 nursed for 26 months and 1 day. I was 4 months pregnant and my milk dried up so he stopped asking.

My daughter self-weaned at 7 1/2 years. She's on her way to becoming a successful, happy, beautifully-minded & connected young woman. It was the best start in life that I could give her.
7 may sound old to many but, in the grand scope of our 70-80-year lifetime, 7 is a baby imho and in retrospect.
I'm so delighted to write this somewhere where people understand. I nursed my only child - my daughter - until one month shy of her sixth birthday. We stopped because she walked into my office and said "Mom, I think I'm going to wean today". I said ok and tried not to act shocked, and that was it. LOL Best six years ever!!
I nursed DS until this past Saturday. He is 16 months old. I'm 23 weeks pregnant and my milk just dried up. He hadn't really been asking to nurse for weeks but I was trying to get him to keep going through flu season. So he's fine, I cried. Maybe he'll start back up when the new baby is here?! I was really looking forward to tandem nursing :(

Humor book by Dilbert comic author Scott Adams< read all 3 reviews
What did you think of this review?
Use Trust Points to see how much you can rely on this review.
The Dilbert Principle refers to a 1990s satirical observation by Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams stating that companies tend to systematically promote their least-competent employees to management (generally middle management), in order to limit the amount of damage they're capable of doing. In the Dilbert strip of February 5, 1995 Dogbert says that "leadership is nature's way of removing morons from the productive flow."
Adams explained the principle in a 1995 Wall Street Journal article. Adams then expanded his study of the Dilbert Principle in a satirical 1996 book of the same name, which is required or recommended reading at some management and business programs. In the book, Adams writes that, in terms of effectiveness, use of the Dilbert Principle is akin to a band of gorillas choosing an alpha-squirrel to lead them. The book has sold more than a million copies and was on the New York Times bestseller list for 43 weeks.
Although academics may reject the principle's veracity, noting that it is at odds with traditional human resources management techniques, it originated as a form of satire that addressed a much-discussed issue in the business world.
The Dilbert Principle is a variation of the Peter Principle. The Peter Principle addresses the practice of hierarchical organizations (such as corporations and government agencies) to use promotions as a way to obtain greater advantage from employees who demonstrate competence in their current position. It goes on ...

Pianist's music fails to put tortoises in the mood
More News from Associated Press
LONDON— No wonder they're endangered.
Galapagos tortoises at London's zoo lumbered around impassively as famous French pianist Richard Clayderman serenaded them with music from his latest album, "Romantique."
The music — an attempt Thursday to put the reptiles in the mood to mate — appeared lost on the slow-moving giants.
Even a rousing rendition of "Chariots of Fire" did little to lift the tortoise's spirits. They only seemed to perk up when zookeepers brought them some carrots.
Galapagos tortoises are the largest in the world and can live for over 150 years. But the gentle animals have struggled to fend off predators and are now under threat.
Clayderman said that it was "funny to be here."

The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.
Given the ugliness demonstrated by so many of the supporters of North Carolina's Amendment One, it is tempting to believe that most of the state is composed of the liars, fanatics, and creeps who have emerged to lead the dispiriting campaign to write discrimination into the state constitution. But if there is plenty of evidence of North Carolina Ugly, we also need to remember that the tarheel state is composed not solely of crazies like Baptist preachers Patrick Wooden and Sean Harris or of rednecks who shoot or urinate on opposing campaign signs. A video recently released by a North Carolina string quartet featuring James Travis Creed and Billie Karel serves as a perfect antidote to North Carolina Ugly.
Vote Against Amendment One: String Quartet, featuring James Travis Creed & Billie Karel from Laurelyn Dossett on Vimeo.
The musicians in the video include Creed (guitar, vocals), Karel (vocals), Karen Strittmatter Galvin (violin), Maria Evola (violin), Peng Li (cello), and Amy Mason (viola). The song, "Vote against Amendment One," is by Laurelyn Dossett. The string arrangement is by Karen Strittmatter Galvin.
The lyrics to the song are as follows.
Stranger there across the room / Your children are my children too / When seven days of May are done / I'll vote against amendment one
Father one or fathers two / Your family is my family too / Ties that bind won't be undone / We'll vote against amendment one
Love thy neighbor, word and true / Your neighbor is my neighbor too / To work beside and lean upon / And vote against amendment one
Points of light and points of view / Your city is my city too / The crumbling walls we'll overrun / To vote against amendment one
We cannot see for red or blue / But your state it is my state too / And when the 8th of May is come / We'll vote against amendment one
We'll rise up with the morning sun / And vote against amendment one / The sounding cry has just begun / We'll vote against amendment one
James Travis Creed has issued this statement: "Working in the Arts has opened my eyes and torn down walls. The people I love come in all shapes, sizes, colors, ethnicities, and sexual orientations. I am happy to do my part to ensure ALL North Carolinians can live their life as they please and be happy. I am thankful to have such talented friends and honored to play a small role in making my state a better place to live."
A hat tip to Jeremy Hooper whose excellent coverage of Amendment One at his GoodAsYou blog brought this gentle and beautiful song to my attention.

Using Technology to Deepen Democracy, Using Democracy to Ensure Technology Benefits Us All
Oh I think it pretty likely there will be at least 20 years of increase in average lifespans by the time I am 75, and I will be able to afford none of it. Yes, anyone who has even an inch of subconscious urge to pay his way into those 20+ years in the full knowledge other will not -- needs his (her) head on the block, logan's run style. Whatever sweet or bitter we get, I'd like everyone to share the fruits in full, including his eminence, the pope of dythiramblyness, Dale Quixote.
I wonder… what [Carrico] would say if extreme life extension and mind uploading were to become available during his lifetime. Perhaps he wouldn't believe it, like those who think Apollo 11 never happened? Or would he refuse these inventions of the devil?
I was totally unaware of this event until I visited the IEET site. Given what I know as a scientist about the likelihood of the Singularity, I couldn't muster much interest. But ever the curious cat, I toddled over and examined the roster of speakers. All are white men. [Emphasis added --d] For several, their sole relevant qualification is that they believe in the imminence of the Singularity.
a SIAI representative informed me that they had looked really hard for qualified women and, since they found none, "would you rather we picked a token female with nothing to say?" Then one of the speakers chimed in, to let me know that "the gender war was a thing of the eighties". [Obviously so! --d] It got even funnier after that…
How highly qualified are those so carefully chosen for admission to the boys' treehouse sanctum? Let me give you a whiff. One of the participants is a dotcom millionaire who has concluded that giving the vote to women doomed capitalist democracy. One of the two speakers that sorta kinda qualify as biologists is the originator of the concept of quantum microtubules (the biomolecular equivalent of Intelligent Design). The other stepped down from on high to deliver unto transhumanists the revelation that mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to cellular damage… a radical notion hidden away by those power-hungry biologists in, oh, every Biochemistry 101 textbook since the seventies..
"[A]ny plan I sign must include an insurance exchange . . . including a public option to increase competition and keep insurance companies honest."
You have said that there is no "better" or "worse" when it comes to wanted lives, regardless of physical or mental "impairment." And you have said that these lives are totally equal (I agree with you on this, by the way). However, when taken to an extreme, it could be inferred from your argument that you would find a rabbit (who very much enjoys being a rabbit) to be just as important as a conscious, intelligent human.... If you do not agree with this, would you be able to provide the "cut-off" at which one wanted life becomes more important than another?

"Rather close but correct reading." -- Evgeny Morozov
"Mean, but true." -- Annalee Newitz
"Dale Carrico's skewering of the salvific pretensions of Silicon Valley's soi disant savior/founders never disappoints." -- Frank Pasquale
"Pretty breathless, but I guess it had to be said." -- Bruce Sterling
"An essential reality check for those who are too entranced by transhumanism to notice the sordid reality behind the curtain." -- Charlie Stross

Pop music at the end of the millennium seems to pose a challenge to the once-essential guitar: You can either get Neil Young-primitive like most indie rock, go "retro" in some classic rock or jazz mode, or you can chuck the guitar altogether for electronics. Is the guitar dead?
The six axmen playing Friday and Saturday at Inter-media Arts (no, not Golden Smog; they're next weekend at First Ave.) would surely answer no. Intermedia's "You're My Guitar Hero: New Works For Avant Garde Guitar" promises frontier-spanning sounds, a truckload of weird gear, and several new ways to think about the six- (or however many) string thing. Acclaimed headliner Henry Gwiazda and local trickster Satoshi Shinozaki, for example, explore ways of using their guitars to trigger samplers. Gwiazda is a North Dakotan who curator Chris Strouth calls "the Charles Ives of the guitar;" he utilizes 3D audio techniques and familiar found sounds to tell vivid musical stories. By contrast, Shinozaki is a pure improv player with a punk/free-jazz backbone. Shinozaki (a veteran of Exploding Head Trick, Tribo and Tin Drum) can move seamlessly from ambience to noisy grooves to thrash,
giving new meaning to the term "sliding scale."
Next down on the "Guitar Hero" bill is Mike Croswell of avant-jazz group Metaphor. Croswell, who also composes for local theater, is forming a duo called Chromedome-- a mixture of avant-garde jazz with the trance-inducing electronica of acts such as The Orb and Flying Saucer Attack. Croswell's preceded by Dave Foley, that madman of punk-cum-R&B collective Things That Fall Down; his solo stuff runs along the lines of guttural, mechanistic noise with samples and tape loops; for this weekend's shows, he'll be testing (and no doubt extending) the full capabilities of that down-home staple, the lap steel.
To warm things up for these evenings of cacophony, trance, and decidedly uneasy listening, "You're My Guitar Hero" will commence both nights with two familiar faces from the club scene: groove-heavy session player/Nun's Honey bassist Jim Anton; and Paul Horn, the ambient-noise specialist from the waterfall of effects that is Shapeshifter. If the work of these musicians is any indication, the guitar is far from dead; after all, it's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the instrument.
"You're My Guitar Hero," featuring Henry Gwiazda, Satoshi Shinozaki, Mike Croswell, Dave Foley, Jim Anton and, Paul Horn runs at Intermedia Arts (2822 Lyndale Ave. S., Mpls.) Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. $8. Call 871-4444. (Simon Peter Groebner)
So you've got a band and a great new recording, and you want to self-release a CD. Sounds like a fine plan-- if you do it right.Toward that end, you might want to check out the workshop "Releasing Your Own CD," which is being held tonight (Wednesday) by Resources and Counseling for the Arts along with the Minnesota Music Academy and the Minnesota Association of Songwriters. The local-biz symposium, featuring Noiseland's Andrew Volna, Best Buy's Gary Wisner, Electric Fetus's Joe Steinger, Terry Katzman from Garage D'Or and Rev-105 jock Brian Oake, will cover issues of manufacturing, distribution, press/radio and more. As we know, the CD format has become little more than a spruced-up demo tape these days. But if you've put the proper care into your recording, you may be ready for the next step. The RCA workshop takes place tonight at 8 p.m.; the class fee in $20 ($15 for MMA/MAS members); call 292-4381 to register. . . (Groebner)

COMLOG WESTPAC Holds All Hands Call Aboard Pinckney
Story Number: NNS140320-08Release Date: 3/20/2014 10:03:00 AM
By Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Jay Pugh, Commander, Task Force 73 Public Affairs
SINGAPORE (NNS) -- Rear Adm. Cindy Thebuad, commander, Logistics Group Western Pacific conducted an all hands call aboard the Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer USS Pinckney (DDG 91) at Changi Naval Base in Singapore, March 19.
Pinckney pulled into Singapore for a routine maintenance availability after participating in search operations for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.
"The willingness of the U.S. Navy to detach from their current missions and assist in search and rescue operations is a huge testimony to the versatility of our Navy and the readiness of Pinckney," said Thebaud.
Thebaud noted that Pinckney's recent efforts highlighted the U.S. Navy's role in supporting security and stability in Southeast Asia and enhancing cooperation and response capabilities of all regional navies. Pinckney was diverted from a training mission in the South China Sea to search for signs of the missing aircraft March 9.
"We prepare for anything, and when called upon to do so, we do it with aplomb," said Thebaud. "The U.S. Navy promotes prosperity, stability and security on the high seas."
Following her remarks, Thebaud held a question and answer session with the crew. She fielded questions about the logistical challenges of operating in Southeast Asia, anti-piracy missions, global and regional implications of Malaysia Airlines MH370, missions and capabilities of the littoral combat ships and operating forward. She then hosted a women's leadership seminar in the wardroom.
"She touched especially on how important our presence in Southeast Asia is to promote maritime security," said Lt. j.g. Jenine Campbell.
Campbell stressed the emotional impact that missing flight MH370 had on the crew.
"This was a global problem. A lot of our Sailors called loved ones back home and all felt committed to the search and rescue mission. It was a mission that touched the crew's heart and it had all of their support," said Campbell.
COMLOG WESTPAC is the U.S. 7th Fleet's provider of combat-ready logistics, operating government-owned and contracted ships to keep units throughout 7th Fleet armed, fueled, and fed. Additionally, COMLOG WESTPAC is 7th Fleet's Theater Security Cooperation agent for South and Southeast Asia.

Kobe not counting out Lakers despite 3-0 deficit
DALLAS Kobe Bryant knows the deal. His Los Angeles Lakers are down 0-3 to the Dallas Mavericks and none of the 98 NBA teams facing that deficit have ever come back to win a series.
Yet Bryant also knows his team has won the last two championships, and reached the finals three straight years. And that his soon-to-be-retired coach has won a record 11 championships and has never been swept in his 20 years on the sideline.
Bryant also realizes how close his team is to leading this series 2-1. They blew a 16-point lead in the opener, losing only in the final seconds, and on Friday night they fell apart down the stretch again on the way to a 98-92 loss.
So, with all that in mind, he made this declaration following the Game 3 defeat: "I think we're still going to win the series."
Confidence, eh? Well, he also prefaced that line by laughing and saying, "I might be sick in the head or crazy."
The Lakers have mostly themselves to blame for being in this predicament. Leading by seven with 5:05 left, and having controlled the game throughout the second half, they got sloppy on defense. They gave Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Terry and Peja Stojakovic wide open shots, and that turned things around in a hurry.
A 20-7 closing run jump-started by 3s from Nowitzki and Stojakovic put the Mavericks on the verge of not only winning this series, but pulling off a sweep. Dallas can move to the Western Conference finals for the first time since 2006 with a victory at home on Sunday.
"We're not good enough to relax or take the pedal off the metal," Nowitzki said. "You don't want to ever give a champion life, so hopefully we can have the same effort and the same crowd and a great game on Sunday."
The Mavericks scored 32 points in the fourth quarter, the most by either team in any period this series. Bryant said the Lakers helped by making "some of the dumbest defensive mistakes I've seen us make all year."
"We're disappointed," said Lakers coach Phil Jackson, who has never been down 0-3 in a series, much less been swept, in 20 years as an NBA coach. "We feel like Games 1 and 3 we controlled the pace of the games. They were better at finishing the games than we were. But we still believe we're going to win the next game and we'll go from there."
Nowitzki and the Mavericks want to get this over with as soon as possible.
This veteran-filled club would love to avoid another long round-trip flight and to start resting up for the next series. Dallas would be the home team in the conference finals, regardless of whether Oklahoma City or Memphis advances.
For a franchise that's perennially underachieved, and is still trying to overcome blowing a 2-0 lead in the 2006 NBA finals, ending this series Sunday also would send a great message about their chances of winning their first title. It also would avoid any chance of yet another postseason disaster.

Italy has some competition. Croatia, the slender post-Cold War country that sits just across the Adriatic Sea from the land that is home to pizzas and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, is quietly luring the jet-setting class to its soil. In particular, the rugged coastal city of Dubrovnik offering unending views of the emerald sea and petite untouched islands is thriving with a surge of international guests. American couples and roving European families are quickly filling its medieval streets and winding coastal highways, and it is not a surprise to the Adriatic Luxury Hotels (ALH) group.
There are a lot of special effects in the HBO blockbuster fantasy series Game of Thrones, but one thing thats never faked is the spectacular scenery.

The bulb of penis refers to the bottom portion of the penis. It is also known as the base of the penis. The bulb is composed of a large bundle of tissue. The tissue mass expands from the corpus spongiosum. The bulb is located above the scrotum, which is the protuberance that contains the testicles. In conjunction with five other components, the bulb forms the internal structure of the penis and the visible, external shape of the penis. The bulb appears as a prominent ridge on the shaft of the penis. Its corpus spongiform is attached to the perineal membrane that extends from the perineum. From the bulb, the corpus spongiform travels up the length of the penis along the urethra to form the glans at the top of the penis. The urethra extends from the bulb. The surface of the bulb is surrounded by bulbospongiosus muscle. The bulb of the vestibule, similar to the bulb of the penis, is present in women. The internal pudendal vein drains blood from the bulb while the internal pudendal artery supplies the bulb of penis with blood.

I was fingering this sexy blonde guy a couple weeks ago and when he came and I pulled out of his pulsating asshole the two fingers I had up there were totally covered in shit. It as unexpected, and I tried to hide it to spare him embarrassment, but he saw and profusely apologized... before grabbing my wrist and sucking them almost-clean (took a few long handwashings later) and then proceeding to fuck me and fill my asshole with cum. I was clean as a whistle, much to I'm sure his disappointment.
HOT - my kind of boy
Another horny thread that needs to be back
An uncleaned ass just get me so horny, anybody has good videos? It's always just over the top scat, which isn't my thing... It seems hard to find nice natural ass without somebody eating a pile of shit!
Something in that genre is just enough for me: http://www.xtube.com/user_videos.php?u=dirtyholefuck
Hey Newbie. I just found this thread myself and was happy to see the contributions. Gemini Men has a lot of masculine, country boy types with dirty assholes. William Higgins has the young Czech boys coming in for the auditions...dirty. First Auditions.com (now CastingRoom.net) has a LOT of hot str8 studs coming in for an audition...vids and close-up pics. Most of them have dirty asses, some are over the top filthy, which is very hot that these str8 guys are walking around so dirty. Some guys at AuthenticFootballers had brown O-rings in their pics.

I always have more fun reading these dirty butthole threads while sniffin' my anus from my own stink finger.
Check this video posted on my manstink blog:
"Bubble-Ass Dude Finds Hygiene a Challenge"
Looks like he might stink.
Towards the end of his webcam session, this str8-identified dude reveals his challenge, as the more he spreads that perfect set of full cheeks, the riper it appears to get as he pucker is pulled wide open.

What Consulate are you under right now?
If it is one with long appointment waits then a year traveling should not be a problem.
When you apply the consulate will ask for your US Passport, State Driver license and some enforce the rule seeing a bank statement, ulitity bill to establish residency to prove you fall within the area they serve.
Moving to a new area should not presenta a problem as you will have to change your drivers license, you will or should have ulitity bills and in most cases a bank account.
Most states require a change in drivers license as soon as you take a permanent residence. Renting an apartment with a lease makes you a permanent resident in most states.
To be honest I would make the appointment and then plan any travel around it.

I'm thirty-one years old, and I live in Brevard, NC. I'm a graduate of Western Carolina University with a degree in cultural anthropology and a minor in professional writing.
I'm currently unpublished (professionally published at least), but I won the high school division of the Flat Rock Playhouse's annual play-writing contest and my play was performed there. I have a life-long love of reading and writing, and my interest in folklore has only intensified that appreciation. I write primarily urban fantasy, though occasionally I work in science fiction and magical realism elements- I enjoy writing fantasy stories that the reader could believe could actually happen in our world.
Blood Dawn is my second book, and is the first volume in a planned four book series.
Review by:
Alison Rupp
on Jan. 03, 2012 :
(no rating)
I've already read the book three or four times, and I'll likely read it again and again. I love the characters, the plot, the world. Don't let the slow set up get you down. Blood Dawn is definitely worth your time. You'll fall in love with the characters as much as I did, I'm sure. The best part is the fact that the vampires in this book are classic. If you've been let down by the recent developments in vampire novels, then give this book a try. It's like coming home.

on Dec. 12, 2011 :
After reading Blood Dawn three times I still go back wanting to read it again. Fisher's book will keep you reading till the end and wanting more. Her new creations leap from the pages with a life all their own. One can not help but be attached to Lilith and her family. No sparkles needed in this book to make vampires and their counterparts interesting. A good read for any true vampire fan.

Breakfast Changes Livesby Leah Brickley in Food News, March 1, 2013
We've all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and a new study shows just how important breakfast is for kids. The study, released by Share Our Strength, an organization Food Network has partnered with to raise money to fight childhood hunger, reveals that of the 21 million U.S. kids that get free or reduced-price school lunch, only a shocking half get breakfast. That means millions of children are starting their day hungry, making it more difficult for them to learn. The study also found that kids who eat school breakfast attend on average 1.5 more days of school, average 17.5% higher on math test scores and are 20% more likely to graduate high school.
Share Our Strength is making breakfast in schools a priority through Breakfast Changes Lives, an initiative in conjunction with the organization's No Kid Hungry campaign.
Does your child's school serve breakfast? Help Share our Strength reach their goal of mapping 10,000 schools by March 31st.
Don't let busy mornings be an excuse to skip breakfast: here are 50 breakfast on the fly ideas that will help your kids start their school day full and hungry to learn.
Cinnamon-Raisin Oatmeal (above) Combine 1/2 cup plain instant oatmeal, 1 tablespoon honey, 1/4 cup raisins and a pinch of salt in a mug. Add 1 cup boiling water and sprinkle with cinnamon. Let sit 5 minutes, then stir.

My story-For the most part I've been blessed with fine but soft and manageable hair. So soft that I never really needed to comb them-my fingers were enough to sort out any tangles. THEN A few months ago-I went against my better judgement and decided to lighten my hair with hydrogen peroxide. A couple of months later-I found myself with hair that was making me miserable. There were knots that would come undone no matter how hard I tried. I'm pretty sure there were dreadlocks beginning to form(I still hadn't realised that I now needed to spend time combing my hair) and when I did manage to sort the best on my head out, it was brittle and I could see split ends poking out everywhere. Using the product- I picked this up because the store owner recommended it highly -above all other prod it's from the same brand and because it was on sale. The first time I used it-I used some 5 pumps all over and then I sat down to detangle my hair. It made the task relatively easy but I hadn't really made up my mind. That quantity of any serum would help the same amount. I followed the routine preferred by other MUA members and added a dollop of the oil to damp hair and massaged it through. The actual review-I LOVE LOVE THIS PRODUCT!! It has rescued my hair- and I had come so close to chopping it all off into a bob( which is something I would have regretted after a month because I NEED my hair in a bun or a pony when I work or study-I also LOVE my hair when it's long) it's smooth it's shiny it's manageable-it's HAPPY-it doesn't feel dry anymore. I am back in hair heaven!!! I do still need to comb it when it gets mussed but that's on me. Additional stuff-like other members said-use it on the hair shaft and that too mid-lower shaft coz it can weigh your hair down. My hair just about covers my bra(that's the length) and I would ideally need a little less than a pump. The bottle does NOT travel well. Also-(and this is just advice) I have been oiling my hair with regular coconut/olive/almond oil(roots and ends) before I sleep-plaiting it and then washing it the next morning. So if you are in the middle of a hair tragedy like I was, that is something you should really consider adding to your routine. Hope this helps!

I love this macadamia oil treatment, it definitely works wonders!
I have really dry coarse hair from all the dying, colouring and toning. That is why I do not use heat tools as often as I want to because my hair is supperrrr dry.
It has this straw-like texture and it has became one of my insecurities. However, this product as well as the other products in the campaigns range have almost fully restored its natural strand's cuticles. My hair needs further hydration as well as good therapy thus, by using this particular oil has given me some sort of barrier to help moisturise and maintain its shape with an extra conditioning. I have dyed my hair from black to blonde and If you do have a very dark base colour then obviously, you would know what it feels like If you want to go blonde. I have some photos in my profile in which you can view how it is quite dry once I dyed it to blonde. A really fantastic product and range! Absolute recommend for people who are looking for good quality product like this especially with people who have experienced what I am going through.
Love, Sette V.

HG product for sure. I use about one pump of the oil in wet hair before blow drying, then after straightening I use about half a pump. This oil makes my hair feel light, and it's super shiny and feels SO soft. I use this in conjunction with the Deep Repair masque however this product is amazing on it's own also. It's lasted me a good 12 months and smells amazing also. It's a bit pricey but like I said, it lasts extremely well! Highly recommend this product not only for damaged hair but also for styling. Nothing else has ever made my hair this soft and shiny.

I use this product once a week in conjunction with my deep conditioner. It really helps moisturize the ends of my hair and leaves the hair feeling smooth and soft afterward. I think it is a little overpriced for the amount you get but a little bit goes a long way so that makes me feel a little bit better about the price. Overall, I like the results it gives me. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is maybe just to experiment with other hair oils.

This is an okay silicone serum- adds manageability, tames frizz, provides heat protection. I use this by adding a small amount to my damp hair before blow-drying. But I find it leaves my hair sticky and weighed-down. It's a tad drying as well.
Not a horrible product, and I'm a fan of this brand. But now that my bottle is empty I've decided against repurchasing this one. I much prefer CHI Silk Infusion to this.
For reference I have thick wavy-texture color-treated hair that I heat-style regularly.

While I do think that this product works well enough, I don't think it is at all worth the exorbitantly high price. I got a 1 oz tester sized bottle from my girlfriend (a diehard ipsy subscriber) and I have been using it for about a month and a half. My hair is waist-length right now and I am looking to grow it much longer; I don't have an especially dry, thick, or coarse hair type, but since my hair is getting long, the ends are drying out and need extra love. I use about a dime sized amount when I get out of the shower and my hair is damp, and I work it into my ends and down the length of my hair. I am benefitting from this product; my ends are soft and hydrated, and I LOVE the smell. So many ladies on here can't stand it and prefer fruitier smells, but I can't get enough of the nutty, musky scent, I would love it if it stayed in my hair all day. :) That being said, as I get older I am paying more attention to the ingredients in the products I use, and am trying to stay away from products that use sulphates, silicones, and other harmful/"filler" ingredients. And this oil is chock-full of those! The first two ingredients are silicones, and only two out of the 19 ingredients have anything to do with Macadamia oil. Considering that I haven't seen the full sized bottle on sale for less than $33 where I live, I feel that this oil is a huge rip-off, when there are so many hair oils on the market that are far cheaper and have similar ingredients. Heck, you can buy a bottle of pure, organic Macadamia nut oil from a health store/online for half the price and 3x the amount of product. There is even a page on this site where some very helpful ladies describe in detail all the uses and benefits of pure Macadamia nut oil, including the amazing results you get when you use it in your hair. With that in mind, I would never buy this product, because you pay way too much for really generic ingredients. I would rather skip the pretty packaging and spend (much less of) my money on the real thing.

After getting a sample of it, I just HAD to get it. I'm on my second bottle now and I don't think I'll be able to give it up.
Makes a huge difference in the way your hair looks and feels (I usually apply in damp hair) - it becomes very shiny and healthy-looking. Quite lasting since you'll only need about one pump for your entire hair (beware-only use on tops to avoid greaseball-look!)
Expensive. I also find the packaging quite a problem, there always seem to be a little coming out so it's almost impossible to take it anywhere with you. The 'closing' top on the bottle just doesn't seem to work either. Or is that just me?
I'm gonna give this oil 4 lippies and not 5 because of the packaging issues. Otherwise, great product.

I have used a number of oils and serums in the past and find Macadamia Oil (not to be confused with actual macadamia oil) to be competitive with other products on the market. I have my hair salon-dyed brown every eight weeks and blow-dry every other day. I find this oil blend to effectively protect my hair from all of that heat while keeping my color-treated ends looking healthy. I normally apply a small amount to the lower half of my towel-dried hair before combing it through and blow-drying, though I occasionally mix a bit with other products (paste, shine spray, etc.) and apply after blow-drying and heat styling, depending on the look I'm going for. It's probably not worth paying full price, but it's a good deal when it's on sale.

Whilst I am by no means a connoisseur of hair products, I must say this is really great and I have repurchased many times. It makes my hair sleek, lush and manageable and it just falls nicely. It is on the heavy side so I only use one pump. It makes it so smooth that hair elastics slide out of my hair! it makes it super straight without any effort and I can use a cheap shampoo and doesn't look cheap. I have also tried the Hairdressers oil by bumble and bumble and I must say this is much better.

|The reverend, the terrorist, and a web of rumors: the image repair discourse of Barack Obama
|Davis, Corey B., 1977-
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|During the 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama faced numerous attacks on his character, and on his associations. He was attacked most prominently for his associations with Reverend Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers. Obama's faith, citizenship, and patriotism were also challenged. This study employs image repair theory to analyze Obama's image repair discourse in a variety of messages. Notably, Obama's internet-based image discourse in response to faith, citizenship, and patriotism attacks received unique analysis in this study. Through rhetorical analysis, this study found that Obama used the strategies of simple denial, shifting the blame, defeasibility, bolstering, minimization, differentiation, transcendence, attack accuser, and corrective action to respond to the Wright attacks. To respond to the Ayers attacks, Obama used simple denial, defeasibility, bolstering, differentiation, transcendence, and attack accuser. Obama used simple denial, accident, bolstering, attack accuser, differentiation, minimization, and transcendence in his various internet defenses. An important theoretical contribution of this study is the idea that kairos, or opportune timing of messages with respect to the rhetorical situation, should be an important consideration in the analysis apologia. Generally, Obama's image repair efforts were found to be kairotically effective. Assessment of overall effectiveness was confirmed using the criteria of media coverage, surveys, and internal consistency.

Leonardo da Vinci's Codex Atlanticus Admission in Milan
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Leonardo da Vinci's Codex Atlanticus Admission in Milan. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.

United Kingdom
Beautiful buildings and fascinating exhibitions. Close to many other Milan sites.
A remarkable exhibit spread over two venues...easy to walk. We were humbled by the genius.
Self directed tour but staff were most helpful and we got to see a lot of art without the crowds.
Tammie P
Despite it being rushed for me and my mom, (on our end) I saw the whole museum in less than two hours. We had walked to the museum, and was a little confusing trying to find the actual da Vinci site. We had found the back of the building first then we had to walk around to the actual front finally locating entrance. I bought an audio with headset for about 3 euros, and they give you a Samsung phone which tells you about each room. The paintings are gorgeous, and the place is pretty big. Bring comfy shoes, and a backpack if you're carrying water and such for all the tours. A sweater would be good just in case. Thank you!
Leonardo never ceases to inspire
This tour was amazing!
This tour was very interesting and the audio guide is a must to have.
Had hoped for more. Viator made it seem like it included the Last Supper-which it didn't. Still worthwhile especially if you're looking to beat the heat or the rain. Disappointing in that it is all in Italian-not a word of English, so buy the audio accompanier. Allow 2-3 hrs.
Pretty good value
Interesting museum collection. A small portion of the overall collections at the museum. It would be interesting to see a model of da Vinci's drawings.
Muy mala la excursión. Encima decían que incluia audioguia en español y cuando lo pedi al ingreso dice que no tenían. Me sentí estafado.
