49ers Win Pool, Nearly Upset No. 1 Pepperdine In First Day At USAV Invitational
April 20, 2013
Hermosa Beach, Calif. - Long Beach State went 3-0 in its first three matches at the USAV Invitational, winning Pool B against USC, CSU Bakersfield, and Loyola Marymount to earn a chance to play No. 1 Pepperdine in the finals, matching the winners of both pools in the first day of team dual action of the USAV Invitational.
Long Beach State started the day with a 4-1 win over No. 4 USC. Three-set wins at No. 2 by Delainey Aigner-Swesey and Chelsea Cabrajac and at No. 3 by Bre Mackie and Libby Fontanilla helped carry the 49ers to their first win of the day. Mackie and Fontanilla rallied from a disastrous first set to win in a very exciting match, a third-set that went all the way to 25-23 before the 49ers were able to become the first team to lead by two points after 15.
After winning 5-0 over both CSU Bakersfield and Loyola Marymount, the second-ranked 49ers won their pool and advanced to face the other pool winner after round-robin play, No. 1 Pepperdine. However, for the second time this season the 49ers were just barely turned back, winning two matches and losing a third in three sets before falling to the unbeaten Waves 3-2.
Day two of the USAV Invitational continues on Sunday at Hermosa Beach, with pairs play beginning at 9 a.m. in the morning. The top two pairs of each team will participate in the "Gold" tournament, while the "Silver" tournament features the No. 3 and No. 4 teams and the No. 5 teams for all eight teams will play in the "Bronze" tournament.
No. 2 Long Beach State 4, No. 4 USC 1
No. 2 Long Beach State 5, Loyola Marymount 0
No. 2 Long Beach State 5, CSU Bakersfield 0

Homeless advocates critical of proposed shelter
Kate Bradshaw
WMNF Drive-Time News Monday | Listen to this entire show:
Pinellas County, especially St. Petersburg, isnât known for taking extra humanitarian measures when it comes to the areaâs large homeless population. A new shelter city and county officials are proposing may dispel â or reinforce â St. Peteâs anti-homeless reputation.
Officials in Pinellas Countyâs Homeless Leadership Network are calling the facility a courtyard. It would provide beds, showers, bathrooms, a host of services, and food â though theyâre not yet sure whether the meals would be hot or cold. In a meeting of the network Friday, Public Defender Bob Dillinger, says the courtyard would be available for anyone in need.
"The concept of the courtyard, I'm not sure that we've completely nailed down but it's generally a place where people can go to be safe, to be showered, use the bathroom and get some food."
Network officials say the closest thing in Pinellas to what HLN is proposing is a Salvation Army facility. This is why they sought the advice of Dr. Robert Marbut, who worked on Haven for Hope, a comprehensive facility for people living on the streets of San Antonio, Texas. He says itâs all about incentivizing members of the homeless population to come to a central location.
"Street feeding really needs to be worked on because if you continue to street feed it's one of your four major magnets. Street feeding, bathrooms, shower, safety/security are your big magnets. So where ever you line those four things up is where your going to have gatherings of homeless peoples."
Critics say that amounts to treating people like animals. Homeless advocate Reverend Bruce Wright says it reminds him of the story of Pavlovâs dog because it aims to condition the behavior of homeless individuals the way one trains a pet. He says the network, which is an assemblage of local government leaders, nonprofit heads, and a single representative from the homeless community activist, simply wants to sweep homeless people under the rug.
"And really the solution is housing first. This is just to get people out of the way that the city doesn't want to be seen, especially during tourist season. And I believe it's also a buildup for the Republican Convention coming here in a couple of years."
Pinellas County Deputy Sheriff Bob Gaultierri says the shelter would be located in a vacant Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority near the County jail. It would house around 500 people, and could be up and running as soon as January. He says thereâs one group in particular that could benefit.
"The Florida Department of Corrections releases about 2,500 people a year into Pinellas County. So these are people that have been incarcerated for a period of time and they're coming back to Pinellas County one way or another. The way the Florida Department of Corrections currently releases them is with $100 and a bus ticket, nothing else."
He says the facility could prevent recidivism for those who have nothing when theyâre through doing time.
"So, as opposed to them just arriving in Pinellas County on that bus with $100 in their pocket, is that they'll be delivered to us through a portal of entry concept. And when they come in we'll have a discussion with them and give them an opportunity. The opportunity is to avail themselves of re- entry services so they can be self-sustaining, help them get jobs and be productive members of society."
Whether or not freshly-released criminals would be living separately from non-offenders is one of many questions the facilityâs planners have yet to address. G.W. Rolle, the homeless communityâs sole representative at the table, says this needs to be looked at.
"The ex-convicts know why they're there, but the homeless people are there just because of economic reasons, just because they're poor. And I think that we don't really have a true understanding of the nature of homelessness. Because if we did, we'd treat homeless people different and what we have now, what we're sitting around here at this table talking about is that."
Another is whether those who violate city ordinances targeting St. Petersburgâs homeless will be forcibly taken to the facility, as opposed to the county jail. Wright says he thinks so.
"This isn't a facility that's going to have much of anything there, and it's forcing people that otherwise should have freedom of movement to go to one location, in a sense to eliminate any sight of the homeless in St. Petersburg."
Wright adds that such a facility is an attempt to further criminalize homelessness.
"First of all they're going to have to check in with police that are there 24/7, you know, and they're sleeping on the floor and eating cold food. It's a joke."
The courtyard facility still has a few details that have yet to be hashed out, including questions like who will provide psychological services, what kind of transit there will be to and from the facility, and how it will be financially sustained. The board voted to support it, but directed Deputy Sheriff Gaultieri, the projectâs main advocate, to draw up a budget and address the issue of whether to separate convicts from those who are just down on their luck. The Homeless Leadership Network meets again in December.comments powered by Disqus

Rob Kardashian famously flew out of Italy the day of sister Kim's lavish wedding to professional annoying person Kanye West but no one ever knew precisely why…until now. Turns out I was right darlings: Robbie was having some body image issues.
"He sent me a long email the morning of that he was going to leave," she told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live. "There was no fight."
Couldn't even tell his big sis face-to-face that he was ditching her I do's? Tres classy, Rob. But, Kim says she understands how he felt and felt sad for him, not angry.
"I just thought, 'You know what, this is my day, I'm not even going to worry about it,'" she explained. "I totally understand that he wouldn't want to see a lot of people if he was feeling uncomfortable and you can only pray and wish that someone would not miss out on more memories in life, because life is about memories."
However, KK admits that she's pretty fed up with her bro's weight woes.
"I'm definitely a tough love kind of person. If I don't like something that's going on in my life, I change it, and I don't sit and complain about it for a year," she snapped. "I try to encourage him," she said. "And once you don't make that change for so long, and it's not happening, I get frustrated. My patience runs out."
For once, I agree with Kim. There's nothing more annoying than listening to a friend drone on about something that is totally within their power to change. For example, when I found out my rival was vying for my spot on the Met Museum council, I didn't sit around crying into my Perrier-Jouet. I took action…and planted a bag of bath salts on her so she'd get sent to boarding school in Switzerland. See? Action.
What would be your tactic if you were Kim trying to deal with an inert Rob? And do you think you would've been so calm if your bro bailed on your wedding day?

L-carnitine is a vitamin-like molecule that serves numerous functions in the body. Its main function is to stimulate the breakdown of fats. L-carnitine is an alpha-hydroxy acid that is primarily located in the muscle. Carnitine is the critical player for the transport of fatty acids into mitochondria. Mitochondria are the powerhouses in the cell that produce energy that the body needs to function properly. The energy is produced when fats are burned in the mitochondria. Since mitochondria need oxygen to burn fat, it follows that supplementation with carnitine ensures an adequate supply of oxygen to the muscle. The supply of oxygen becomes extremely important during exercise. Longer periods of Intense exercise on a regular basis results in the loss of carnitine. Therefore, carnitine must be replaced in order for the muscle to remain toned and healthy.
The muscle needs a regular supply of carnitine in sufficient amounts to remain toned and healthy over a long period of time. It should be taken on a regular schedule before its beneficial effects become apparent. On the average, about 10 to 14 days of carnitine supplementation should suffice to keep the muscle supplied with this nutrient that is central to muscle function.
L-carnitine functions in conjunction with pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). Pantothenic acid is converted into its active form panetheine in the body. Panetheine is the fundamental component of coenzyme A (coA) and is involved in the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria and also to and from cells.

Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life
Guidelines for Designing Courses
Community Engagement
CC courses and projects should strive to include some form of community engagement. This may, for example, be a partnership with an off-campus organization, a service-learning component, an internship program, a series of field site visits, study abroad, collaboration with a non-profit group, attendance at events off-campus, or involvement with a school.
A key aim here is for UWM students to examine the diversity of Milwaukee and the many opportunities for learning that the city provides. Whether they are from the city or beyond, our students often come from segregated backgrounds or have little or no experience with multiculturalism.
Students may know little about our many distinct neighborhoods or their rich histories, or arrive on campus with stereotypes and misperceptions about other people or communities. Engagement should be designed to challenge biases, facilitate intercultural communication, and promote critical self-reflection on the part of students about their own cultural identities.
To qualify, the engagement must enhance the student's knowledge and/or interaction with a community or cultural group and/or strengthen their cross-cultural understanding. Course content should include assignments requiring students to reflect analytically on community engagement experiences and to relate these experiences to the academic content of the class. Instructors are encouraged to work with the Center for Volunteerism and Student Leadership in developing this component.

The Minnesota Vikings are expected to make a "strong run" at free agent LB Desmond Bishop. As has been speculated on here already, source says look out for Minnesota to make a strong run at Bishop, league source says. — Packer Report (@PackerReport) June 17, 2013 Photo Credit: Packers.com Bishop, 28, had a strong two-year stretch in 2010-11, collecting a total of 218 tackles with 8.0 sacks, four forced fumbles and one interception for 32 yards and a score through 28 games (25 starts) with the Packers. The former 2007 sixth-round selection out of California was expected to remain in green and gold for at least another year and considered himself a major candidate for the Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY) award last month, despite missing the entire 2012 season with an injury. It's no surprise, however, that Minnesota is showing interest in Bishop, as the club is arguably the most linebacker-needy team in the league with Marvin Mitchell currently slated to start the season on the we...

It's still too soon to tell whether the arson fire-displaced Peralta Elementary School children will have to share space with high school kids this fall at their temporary home, but the reconstruction situation looks much better than it did last week.
Tim White, OUSD's head of facilities, said the construction plans made it out of the Division of the State Architect's office early this week. In other words, it cleared a big bureaucratic hurdle that would have otherwise stalled the project. When I snagged him after school board meeting Wednesday night, White said work should begin in a few days.
If everything goes according to plan — and is completed within 60 days, as White estimated — it looks like the Peralta kids will be able to return to their 63rd Street home for the start of the semester.
Maybe the contractors will take a cue from the folks who fixed the MacArthur Maze.

My girlfriend and I lived there about two years ago for a 13 month lease. And of course management was so nice at first, no problems for the first few months, it was quiet and was a nice place to live. Then about halfway though our lease we kept getting notices for dog poop on our lawn, and we did not have a dog, always getting notices for noise when in fact it was our neighbors that we tried to tell them about multiple times. Also, they said they did not allow pit bulls and large breeds of dogs, but many people had pit bulls and LARGE breeds of dogs roaming around the complex. For some reason, all our neighbors did whatever they wanted, partied outside all night, kids running around at night breaking into houses/cars, we heard gunshots a couple times, and we always got a letter on the door. Keep in mind our son was born in August of 2008 and our lease was up in December, so all this was happening while having a newborn baby. Every time we went to the office the sign said they were out on lunch or closed for the day and then you could see them inside, knock on the door and they ignore you. Could rarely ever get your parking in front our your place, it seemed like it was just a party complex, always different cars parked in front of your apartment. I worked 3rd shift and while leaving multiple times at night, guys would be drunk outside yelling and fighting, and this did not make me comfortable to leave my girlfriend and son at home all night, I told management many times and they did not know what to tell me beside call the cops. Any maintenance problems, it takes them close to a month to fix, and when they did, it was like an inconvenience for them. Always an attitude when you finally get into the office to talk to them. Never answer the phone when you call. They look at you like your an idiot with any problems you tell them. Not nice people on staff, horrible neighbors, not a god environment to live if you have a family. I do not recommend anyone moving in there at any point. Many of my friends have lived there and they had similar problems as I. And this is only a few of the problems I had in a years time. DO NOT MOVE INTO PRESTON POINTE!!

The 2012 results for the Ordinary Level examinations were released yesterday indicating high general performance this year compared to the previous year. The number of candidates who sat for the exams also increased from 77,473 in 2011 to 81,053.
According to the results, 84.7 per cent of the 81,053 who sat last year's exams passed compared to 82.8 per cent in 2011. However, this year girls emerged the best in general performance with 50.18% over 49.82% boys. Boys however dominated 2011's results with 52.7%. The overall best two students in the country were Andrew Nkubito and Francoise Niyigena both from Nu-Vision High School in Rusororo sector in Gasabo district.
Although there was improvement in performance, 2,733 students registered but did not sit for the exams countrywide. Kirehe district topped the list of absent students with 113, representing 5.49 per cent.
According to the Minister of Education, Vincent Biruta, who received the results from Rwanda Education Board, the general conduct of exams was good compared to last year but added that more effort is needed to improve the performance.
Biruta said the ministry would follow up the issue of candidates who failed to sit the examination to establish the cause and try to solve the problem.
There are some schools, which according to the minister, bar weak students from sitting exams due to the fear of registering failures. This he said was uncalled for.
The Headmaster of New-Life High School, which produced some of the best ten students, John Africa attributed their good performance to good teaching and learning environment.
The headmaster who was in a jovial mood after learning of his school's excellent performance, told The New Times that the school's teaching and learning environment allowed learners to perform well in national exams.
"This year, just like other preceding years, we have been performing well academically...the bottom line is respect fundamentals of education," Africa said.

smile was just in the name, as none of the workers were welcoming people happily. The rates were very cheap for salad beach, but the rooms were justifying such price!! They were simple as it can be, old and with very bad sheets. Our first room was not good as it had no window. I would still come back there tow, as all the other bungalows were expensive and they were t durty

Probably the most miserable place I have stayed at in my extensive travels in Asia. The only friendly creatures at Smile beach resort were the cockroaches. A miserable experience never to be repeated. I have been to Thailand many times but never encountered a bunch of people so unfriendly and unwelcoming as the staff at this resort. Despite my many attempts at pleasantry, they seem only interested in watching tv or messing about on their phones.

It is a cheap bungalow and the service is corresponding. Pros: close, very close to the beach for a little money. Cons: I thought the owner and his family( especially one of the ladies) were weird. Maybe, they just didn t like us? Anyways they were decently rather than exceptionally hospitable. Tip: don t overpay for A/C, get the fan room. If you feel that the fan is not cooling the air enough for you, you can always upgrade it during your staying. For the 28C weather the fan was working out just fine for me. We even turned it off during the night a couple of times.

Hatten im Family Lux. Bungalow in der ersten Nacht 6 Kakarlaken (1 im Bad, 2 im Vorraum und 3 in einem der Schlafzimmer). Jemand vom Team ist jedoch um 23 Uhr noch gekommen, um alles einzusprayen und die Räume abzusuchen. Am nächsten Tag dann nochmals. Hatten danach keine Tiere mehr. In Thailand kann dies passieren, die Reaktion des Teams war hervorragend. Für den Preis kann ich das Smile Beach Resort nur empfehlen. Der Garten ist sehr gepflegt und das Team sehr freundlich. War unser zweiter Aufenthalt dort.

Buchung hat sehr gut geklappt.

We rented the Family Deluxe Air-Con Bungalow--two rooms, two bath separated by a kitchenette. It was perfect for our family. We liked the wood frame and trees. We had to ask for the room to be cleaned/changed, but the housekeeping staff did it quickly and happily. The sheets and towels are low quality. The fans, new A/C, refrigerator and bathrooms worked perfectly. We liked being off the beach in a nice quiet courtyard. The food was also affordable compared to restaurants on the beach. I would not recommend the travel services though--not very knowledgable. The owner and son are very sweet.
Reservation service:
perfect and flexible

SPRINGFIELD -- Firefighters were called to an early morning fire at a mobile home that might be the result of a meth lab explosion, according to acting fire Chief Michael Laramore.
There were five people, including a 1-year-old child, inside the home on lot B at 918 Bob Little Road when it caught fire around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday, Laramore said. The child's uncle sustained burns over 18 percent of his body and was taken to a hospital in Georgia for treatment, Laramore said.
"We treated it as a meth lab," Laramore said, adding that firefighters didn't find evidence of a lab Tuesday.
The home was destroyed as a result of the fire, and child's uncle was the only one injured.

Paraguay secured their place at the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ with a 1-0 win over Diego Maradona's hapless Argentina on Wednesday. For their part, Argentina suffered their fourth defeat in their last five qualifying games and tumbled into the play-off position in the South American standings.
Paraguay showed team play from the very beginning, with attacking duo Salvador Cabanas and Nelson Haedo Valdes teaming up perfectly. Paraguay become the 11th side to qualify for the finals, while Argentina slip to fifth with Peru at home and Uruguay away as their remaining games. Maradona praised his conquerors, but remained defiant.
"Paraguay played well, particularly Cabanas and Haedo Valdes," he said. "They held the ball and midfielders attacked us from the sides. We should have marked them better.
"It is down to poor form and failures as a team. We must re-start and do the puzzle again. I didn't think we were going to be like we are. I wanted to be higher in the table.
"This is the reality we must live and I will face it like always in my life," he said. "We still have a chance and we are holding it."
The defeat will inevitably raise further questions over the stewardship of coach Diego Maradona - a playing icon who inspired Argentina to the 1986 FIFA World Cup trophy and to the 1990 final - as the Argentinians slipped to fifth with just two matches remaining to seal one of the two remaining automatic qualifying places.
We still have a chance and we are holding it.
However, Maradona, who has overseen four defeats in the six FIFA World Cup qualifiers he has been in charge of, insisted that his team would qualify and dismissed his critics.
"I am not afraid of criticism. I am afraid of nobody. I am doing my job, I have my team and I am going to go forward," he said.
"I have been battling critics since I was 15 years old. Now I am 48 and I am going to continue to battle with them [the press]."
Maradona had to once again march to Messi's defence after another anonymous performance. "Do not throw stones at Messi yet again," said Maradona. "The Paraguayan players and Martino knew that he was dangerous.
"They were three or four around him. They neutralised him well and he was not able to shine like he normally does."

SWTOR's Galactic Starfighter: Not For Everyone
BioWare's decision to release SWTOR's Galactic Starfighter expansion as PvP-only was questionable at best. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's all bad.
I've spent a week trying to get to like Galactic Starfighter. I really did. Star Wars: The Old Republic is still one of my favorite MMOs, and I'm a huge Star Wars nerd. The space dogfights in the movies are one of the reasons the series has the rabid fanbase it does, and when the "off-the-rails space combat" expansion was announced, I was jazzed. My spirits were badly dampened when it was later confirmed that the expansion would be PvP-only, but I managed to cling to some shreds of hope and remain somewhat enthusiastic about it.
Find out what happened when it went live with SWTOR's Galactic Starfighter: Not For Everyone over on SWTORHub!

In my 40 years of camping I have never felt so unwelcome as I did when entering this park today. Not only were we not permitted to access a perfectly open site until the 3 PM check-in time, but also we were directed to take our 30 foot motor and just go park it somewhere until it was time. We went to the lake, and the person there was seemingly unwilling to let us take our camper into the beach parking area, the only place there was decent parking anywhere around. Some training in public relations is in order. - SilverOtter

The reason for the 5 rating is mainly because the trees in the park need to be trimmed and pruned back. There are too many low branches, and limbs sticking out into the road. Extensive problem in this park. They recently poured loose gravel alongside all the interior roads, blocking access to even the campsite driveways, had to shovel it away, just to get our RV into the site. Thirty amp power breaker switch was weak, tripped easily, even while using less than 30 amps, breaker switches on pedestals simply need to be replaced. Otherwise park is beautiful. Be careful and drive slow on 77 into park, windy road with many sharp curves and tree limbs. Do not arrive in the dark. - univmd

Very nice, level gravel sites, all pretty much shaded and for the most part nicely separated. The staff was very friendly, but the camp hosts not so much so. We were staying next to some friends and all gathered around the fire when, right at 10 pm, they came around and told us we had to quiet down, even though we were simply sitting talking to one another with no other campers anywhere near us. The actual park staff was excellent, however. The park itself is in a wonderful area with lots to do. - Cyclonic

BGS is recognised as a European centre of excellence for the study of carbon dioxide (CO2) storage, contributing to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) special report. We have a dedicated CCS team active in a number of research areas including:
See our Discovering geology pages for an Introduction to carbon capture and storage (CCS)
The GeoEnergy Research Centre (GERC) is an independent, collaborative institution co-founded by two of the UK's acknowledged pioneers in the fight against climate change; the British Geological Survey and the University of Nottingham.
Scottish Carbon Capture & Storage (SCCS) is a partnership between the British Geological Survey, Heriot-Watt University, the University of Edinburgh and the University of Aberdeen.
It is the UK's largest CCS research group, with researchers engaged in projects and joint industry projects across the full CCS chain.
Visit the SCCS interactive 'Global CCS Map' which provides a world view of carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. It holds information on projects of all scales and at all stages of development — planned and operating, and including cancelled projects of interest.
Developing a suitable regulatory framework for CO2 storage is a high priority, and BGS has a key technical advisory role, both in the UK and overseas. We have provided expert technical advice to policymakers in the UK and Europe who are responsible for regulating the deployment of CCS.
Members of the CCS Team also undertake a range of expert peer-reviews for a number of international CCS demonstration projects on behalf of governments or industrial project consortia. This is exemplified by the UK competition to build the first 'full chain' CCS system, where we are acting as technical advisors to the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) in the bid evaluation process.
The large-scale application of carbon capture and storage may increase the use of Britain's coal — a home-grown resource — in electricity generation, as well as allowing removal of CO2 from other major industrial sources like steelworks and refineries.
CCS technology can make a significant reduction in UK emissions if it were applied to a relatively small number of industrial plants. The UK's major potential for long-term storage of CO2 is in:
A CO2 GIS has been developed as a result of UK studies and further information about storage potential can be found in the UK study report produced for BERR in 2006.
In 2008 the CCS Team carried out the first assessment for geological CO2 storage for the whole of Ireland in a study lead by SLR consulting, Ireland (formerly the CSA Group) and funded by Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The CCS Team has been involved in the following European research:
In 2008, the Best Practice Manual for the Storage of CO2 in Saline Aquifers was produced. This multi-partner volume, published by BGS, distils the findings of a number of recent European projects to summarise the latest understanding of storage site characterisation and operation.
The CCS Team is also active in China, in the COACH and NZEC projects, working with Chinese and European partners to identify opportunities and evaluate potential for geological storage of carbon dioxide in selected regions of north-east China. The BGS co-leads the geological storage work-package for NZEC alongside the China University of Petroleum (CUP, Beijing).
The CRIUS project (Carbon Research into Underground Storage) is a consortium funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), and involves scientists from the Universities of Cambridge, Manchester and Leeds and the British Geological Survey. The project is studying fluids and gasses from natural CO2 reservoirs and from sites where CO2 is being actively injected underground to:
The ultimate objective is to inform site assessment, risk and monitoring for geological carbon storage operations.
The QICS project (Quantifying and Monitoring Potential Ecosystem Impacts of Geological Carbon Storage) is a consortium lead by the Plymouth Marine Laboratory funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). The British Geological Survey is involved on this three year project to investigate the nature and probability of leakage from a geological storage site. The project will inform operational and risk assessment procedures for future CCS installations.

This video provides a tutorial on how to enter and exit the Large Hadron Collider!
There's some pretty futuristic security there… stuff most people have only seen in movies. I wonder if it's a good idea to stick this on the Internet. Although on the other hand, we should all know that "security by obscurity" is never a valid option anyway… so I guess it's not a problem.
The references to "Material Access Device" and "Personal Access Device" evoke the world of Portal to me. All they need is a GLaDOS voice giving instructions and it would round out the creep-factor.
Neat stuff.

What you describe is certainly suggestive of some sort of pancreatic/gut dysfunction. There are a lot of things you might try first. I have a lot of experience with dogs who have the kinds of problems as you mention your dog has. Feel free to email me privately and I can ask you some specific questions and perhaps provide some things to try.
Doing the test will give you more information, but it is likely to result in your trying some of the things I and others might suggest in any case. So I might try some things before I shelled out the cash.
By the way, pancreas problems, just like other health issues, can surface at any age. They most commonly present in a dog over 3 years in my experience, but older dogs can begin to have trouble too as the pancreas looses the ability to consistently produce the correct kind and amount of enzymes necessary for digestion.

You could go with a classic box of chocolates, a necktie, maybe some cologne. But if you want a Valentine's Day gift that will surprise and delight your sweetheart… why not try something new?
Even if you're short on time, there are several simple beauty tricks that can transform your look into something really special!
Whether you've been married 10 years or dating 10 weeks, Valentine's Day is the perfect time to wow your spouse or partner with a beauty makeover. Follow these easy tips to grab your honey's attention:
1. Va-va-volume: If your typical "look" involves a ponytail and lip balm, now is the time to go big or go home.
- Lips: To give lips a fuller appearance, start with a gentle exfoliation – mix a little coconut oil with sugar and rub on your lips to slough off dead skin cells. Next, keep them hydrated with a richly moisturizing balm, such as Desert Essence Lip Rescue with Shea Butter. Follow up with a special plumping product to add volume and shine – I recommend Devita Lip Volumizer. (Did you know that a glossy tint makes your lips look bigger by reflecting more light?)
- Lashes: Go ahead and bat those lovely, lengthy lashes – thanks to Beauty Without Cruelty Full Volume Mascara, your valentine will be head over heels. Unlike other conventional products, this lengthening mascara is free of parabens, icky preservatives and animal ingredients. (What's not to love about that?)
- Hair: Say goodbye to that elastic hair-tie and say hello to shiny, voluminous and all-around gorgeous hair with Jason Thin-to-Thick shampoo and conditioner, which work together to add body, bounce and shine to fine or limp hair. If you have extra time to perfect your 'do, prep it with a volumizing mousse before using a curling iron or hot rollers to add extra volume and shape, then follow up with Jason Extra Volume Hair Spray.
2. Color me pretty: Nude nails are beautiful, but why not spice things up by adding a touch of color to your fingers and toes? Go for a bold, beautiful look with Barielle Nail Polish in "Cosmic Kiss" or try Honeybee Gardens "Desire."
3. Add a little dazzle: I don't recommend you bathe in body glitter, but a subtle shimmer can do wonders for your look! Try a bronzer (like Larenim Mineral Bronzer Goddess Glo) or blush with a touch of sparkle, such as Aubrey Silken Earth.

Roberto Di Matteo is aiming to build on winning the FA Cup and Champions League next season after he was named Chelsea's permanent manager and first-team coach.
Di Matteo, 42, was promoted from assistant manager into temporary charge of the Blues in March following a poor spell under then-boss Andre Villas-Boas. He then led Chelsea to their fourth FA Cup success in six seasons before masterminding their maiden Champions League title with victory over Bayern Munich on penalties.
The former Italy midfielder, who also enjoyed a distinguished playing career at Stamford Bridge, has now been given the job full-time after signing a two-year deal and is looking to build on those successes. He said: "I'm obviously delighted to have been appointed as manager and first-team coach."

High-resolution Fabry-Perot interferometry is being developed and employed for mechanical displacement metrology, linking optical measurements to the atomic time standard using laser frequency combs.
NIST has recently initiated a program to develop a new standard of electrical capacitance. The approach employs a dynamic electrode geometry in conjunction with precision optical metrology. We will use high-resolution Fabry-Perot interferometry to measure the mechanical displacement of an electrode in a "calculable capacitor," and link the optical measurement to an atomic standard of time by means of a femtosecond-laser frequency comb. This work involves a close collaboration between the Physics Laboratory, Electronics and Electrical Engineering Laboratory, and the Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory.
*Design and build a new Fabry-Perot interferometer system employing narrow-linewidth telecom lasers and a rubidium frequency reference
*Replace the rubidium reference with a femtosecond-laser frequency comb for greater accuracy

Alexander Gallery, New York
Born in Scotland and raised in Canada, James Hope spent his adult life in America, where he became one of its leading painters of portraits, landscapes, and genre scenes. Hope settled in Fairhaven, Vermont at the age of fifteen and spent five years working as a wagon-maker's apprentice until he had saved enough money to pursue a painting career. He trained at Castleton Seminary for a year and worked as a portrait painter until 1849, when a meeting with Frederic Church inspired him to turn his focus to landscape painting. It was in that field that Hope found his true calling, and success soon followed. He established a studio in New York in the 1850s and exhibited at all of the major art institutions, including the National Academy of Design, the American Art-Union, the Brooklyn Art Association, and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
Hope joined the Union Army during the Civil War and became an active recruiter for the Second Vermont Regiment. His experience inspired him to create a series of large battle scenes that served as visual documents of the war. He exhibited his paintings throughout the country until 1872, when he built his home, studio, and gallery in Watkins Glen, New York. He spent the last twenty years of his life in the area, painting Rainbow Falls and other striking locations.
Painted in 1873, Winter House likely depicts an area of Watkins Glen. Hope conveys his personal attachment to the landscape in the decidedly romantic tone of the footprints that lead the viewer's eye towards the cottage. Such winter scenes evoked powerful memories for the artist, who was driven to paint snow-covered landscapes by "the recollections of the forest life of the 'wildly picturesque spot of Canada where [he] spent his boyhood."[1] Another snow scene, Winter Scene: The Red Fox, painted in 1855, is now featured in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Hope's work is also in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Butler Institute of American Art, and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art.

Pinking shears have a utilitarian function for cutting woven cloth. Cloth edges that are unfinished will easily fray, the weave becoming undone and threads pulling out easily. The sawtooth pattern does not prevent the fraying but limits the length of the frayed thread and thus minimizes damage.

Adolph Bolm (1884-1951)
Two of the male stars of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in 1909 were Adolph Bolm (1884-1951) and Mikhail Mordkin (1880-1944). Bolm was a student at the Imperial School in St. Petersburg and Mordkin was trained at the Bolshoi, in Moscow. They both joined Diaghilev for his Paris season as leading dancers although they ranked above Nijinsky. Diaghilev made sure that the press wrote more about his young favorite.
Bolm was an outstanding character dancer and scored great successes as the chief warrior in Mikhail Fokine's Polovtsian Dances and Pierrot in his Le Carnival. He did not join the1910 tour, but in 1911 he left the Maryinsky to become a regular member of the new Diaghilev Ballet. After the company's second American tour in 1916 he decided to stay in the United States. In 1918 he was the choreographer for the New York Metropolitan Opera and the Chicago Civic Opera in 1920. Bolm toured South America in 1928 and took up residence in Hollywood where he choreographed many movies. He was the guest choreographer for the first season of the San Francisco Ballet (America's longest performing ballet company) in 1933, and choreographed Peter and the Wolf for Ballet Theatre in 1940. Bolm was one of the pioneers of native American ballet.

Description: Four Quakers of New Garden face trials of the heart. When Josiah Wall postpones his marriage to Ruth Payne for a second time, Ruth is reluctant to give him another chance at love. Deborah Wall is thrilled to work at a hub of the Underground Railroad, until wounded Nathaniel Fox—a bounty hunter for runaway slaves—is left to her care. Leah Wall struggles to turn a marriage of convenience into a marriage of love. Christian Jaidon Taylor pursues Quaker Catherine Wall—but she's convinced their differences will forever keep them apart. Will these women withstand the test of love?
Review: I really liked the story lines for all the books. They were well thought out and easy to read except for the 'thee' 'thou' and like language. It was OK at the start but became a noose during the reading because the weighed down the dialogue. I struggled through this with the start of each story until I could block it out. It seemed to me that it should have been phased out and I doubt that it would have bothered me. They were fun to see them blend from one part of the family to the next with characters that would pop into other stories. I am glad that I read it over all and look forward to hearing good things from these authors in the future.
I would like to thank Net Galley and Barbour Publishing, Inc. for allowing me to read and review this book in return for a free copy and I was never asked to write a favorable review by anyone.
