Olympic Spotlight: Former Gopher and USA Volleyball Setter Lindsey Berg
July 12, 2012
Former Gopher great Lindsey Berg is busy preparing for the 2012 Olympics set to begin on July 26th in London. One of the biggest names on the international volleyball scene, Berg first starred as a setter for the Golden Gophers from 1998-2001. A three-time All-Big Ten selection, Berg was a four-year starter at Minnesota and still ranks second all-time in Big Ten history in both services aces (283) and assists (5,913). She has also been twice named USA Volleyball Indoor Female Athlete of the Year, winning the award in 2008 and 2011, and last year was also inducted into the Hawaii Sports Hall of Fame. Team USA's captain, Berg is currently being coached by future Gopher head coach, Hugh McCutcheon. Here's a question and answer session by Berg.
Q: This will be your third trip to the Olympics and first as the starting setter. How has your past experience helped you prepare for London?
Q: Who is Team USA's biggest competition going into the Olympics and who do you think could be a surprise?
A: This Olympics is really difficult considering the pool we're in. To me, you have to beat everyone to win it all. Whether it's early on or later, doesn't matter. Brazil is always strong and No. 2 in the world and China has gotten better each year. They were peaking last World Cup and are playing well. Italy is always strong. Turkey is a surprise. They won the European and competed in the Grand Prix. We really don't have an easy game in pool play. It's going to be tough.
Q: Other than competition, what's the best part about the Olympics. Do you get to do anything?
Q: You're getting inducted into the Minnesota Hall of Fame. Talk about receiving this honor?
Q: You've played in Italy for several years. Talk about your experience playing internationally and getting used to a different culture?

Sadly, summer is coming to an end. Happily, Seattle's Velocity Dance Center is planning an entrancing entrance into September. Their Fall Kickoff—the Seattle Dance Showcase—combines replays of hits from the last year with previews of what's to come. As Gigi Berardi wrote in our pages three years ago ("Seattle Takes Off"), the Pacific Northwest dance scene is "vibrant, innovative, and inclusive." The three-day series presents 17 artists and companies including zoe|juniper (read Zoe Scofield's Quick Q&A), Heather Kravas, the beguilingly androgynous Ilvs Strauss, Kate Wallich and the YC Quickies, Amy O'Neal (see her in action in our "Choreography in Focus"), Alice Gosti, Dayna Hanson (of 33 Fainting Spells fame), the drag performer Cherdonna Shinatra, and a world premiere, Duet Love, by Tahni Holt.
The timing, Sept 5–7, overlaps with Western States Arts Alliance Conference, which is the West Coast version of APAP, aimed to export performing artists of the region out to the rest of the country.
Also on the docket are the Dance Champion Awards, honoring "unsung heroes" who support dance in the Pacific Northwest. Click here for more info.

Facebook Graph Search – Not As Scary As It Seems
There has been a lot of buzz regarding the upcoming Facebook Graph Search launch and its effect on healthcare marketing. Some of the blog posts have been fairly negative and a little alarmist. I believe that the new Graph Search won't be a big issue for pharma marketing and will potentially allow pharma companies to distribute their resources and information further than ever before, though this opportunity will require marketers to take additional precautions.
What is Facebook Graph Search?
In an effort to try to combat Google's strong hold on the search market, Facebook has developed a new way to utilize their search functionality within the social media platform itself. Graph Search is currently in Beta; you can sign up for the waiting list on facebook.com/graphsearch. Facebook says they have a great deal of work ahead of them to incorporate all the items into the Facebook sphere.
With Graph Search, users will be able to search within their networks for very specific information, such as, "My friends that have been to Argentina" or "My friends who watch Downton Abbey and are from my hometown." According to Mark Zuckerberg, the Graph Search will analyze the user's own network and serve up answers that aren't links, as normal search engines would, but rather relevant posts, photos, images, videos, etc. Results will appear similar to the knowledge graph that Google has implemented. It will also provide results from public domain sources via Microsoft's Bing search engine, though the way this will be presented to the user is yet to be confirmed.
The concerns
Though it may be a little scary that a pharmaceutical company's online content may be getting served up in new ways that they have very little control over, how is this any different than current social media sharing or Google search results? Companies should already be utilizing best practices by not posting anything on social media outlets that could be misconstrued if taken out of a larger context and should be verifying that they are providing compliant information in any metadata that could be shared by a social media user. Yes, there is a concern about Facebook serving up non-sanctioned user-generated content about the brand or company being included in the search results, but this type of information is already accessible via larger search engines.
As with most new social media launches, the pharmaceutical market will need to take a conservative approach on how it will be utilized, but at this point, it seems that Graph Search is more of a concern for individual Facebook users and what they include on their profiles. On a positive note, pharma marketers will have the opportunity to conduct further research as to how users are identifying themselves within Facebook, which may help targeting efforts of future campaigns. It will be interesting to see if these keyword searches are employed by and helpful to Facebook users who are looking for medication information.

The lives of many California coffee drinkers, this one included, were changed for the better by this man.
From latimes.com...
Alfred Peet, a Dutch immigrant who grew a coffee empire in California starting with his first tiny shop, Peet's Coffee & Tea, in Berkeley, has died. He was 87.
Peet died Wednesday at his home in Ashland, Ore., the company announced without specifying the cause.
"What made Peet's so strong was that Alfred Peet had so much knowledge about coffee and tea," Jerry Baldwin, a Starbucks founder and member of Peet's board of directors, told The Times on Friday.
Peet learned the coffee trade by helping his father in the family's small coffee roasting business in his hometown of Alkmaar, Holland. After World War II, he moved to London, where he joined Lipton tea and apprenticed in the tea business.
He worked in that industry in Indonesia, then still a Dutch colony, and moved to San Francisco in 1955.
"I came to the richest country in the world, so why are they drinking the lousiest coffee?" Peet asked himself soon after he arrived in California.
My wife Kathleen has helped to truly educate my coffee taste buds since I first met her. In the days before they opened up stores down here and later made their product available at the supermarket, she used to get their beans by mail order from Berkeley.
When asked to recount his life's happenings, Peet once said "The coffee tells my story."
I raise my cup of Major Dickason's this morning in his honor.

SAN DIEGO A 70-pitch simulated game was a step in the right direction but not enough to convince the Cardinals that ace Chris Carpenter is ready to pitch in a big league game just yet. Carpenter, 37, has yet to pitch this season while dealing with a nerve issue in his neck and right shoulder. But he threw his third simulated game Monday afternoon at Petco Park and continues to make rapid progress towards a return to the mound. And it appears Carpenter will pitch for the Cardinals in the near future - it just won't be this weekend as some had speculated. The right-hander will instead throw another simulated game Saturday in Los Angeles before likely making his season debut sometime next week. "It was a very good outing today," manager Mike Matheny said. "He had more life on the ball, it was crisp movement and he held it all the way through until his last pitch with the same stuff. That was all very encouraging to see. "Another step in the right direction. Right now we just keep ...

Barry Zito has pitched for both the Oakland Athletics and San Francisco Giants for the last twelve seasons. Still there are people in the area who are not familiar with the former Cy Young winner. Good Say L.A. host Steve Edwards tried hard to know something about baseball. Then he asked Kelley James, the musician, his big question. Zito was a postseason hero for the Giants and has been a part of both of their championship winning teams. Edwards should have known better. Watch the video at the 3:05 mark for the awkward exchange.

Study: MINI E Meets Daily Needs for 90% of Trial Participants
Ever wonder if an electric car could really work in your daily driving routine? Take heart, a recently released study from UC Davis and BMW Group found that the MINI E met the daily driving needs of 90% of the trial participants. The study also found that 95% of participants drove fewer than 80 miles in a given day. In terms of commuting and even general errand running, this isn't particularly surprising, but the results are noteworthy because of most people's so-called "range anxiety." Read the full summary after the jump.
[Official Release] The University of California, Davis and the BMW Group today released the largest publicly available study of electric-car users ever conducted – including over 120 families who drove the fully electric MINI E automobile more than 1 million miles in California, New York and New Jersey from June 2009 to June 2010. The report shows that the participants found the cars to be fun yet practical, easy to drive and recharge, and many said they would buy an electric car in the next five years, according to UC Davis researchers.
As battery electric vehicles (BEVs) enter the commercial marketplace for the first time, the results of this year-long study by the UC Davis Plug-in Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Research Center provide valuable insight into new ways that consumers value BEVs.
Through online and telephone surveys of the participating households, and diaries and in-person interviews with a subset of more than 40 households, the UC Davis MINI E research team examined user behavior, infrastructure use, costs, environmental benefits, and other aspects of electric driving.
Among the key findings of the study are the following:
- 100% of respondents said BEVs are fun to drive and practical for daily use
- Respondents said the MINI E met 90% of their daily driving needs
- 71% of respondents drove fewer than 40 miles/day; 95% drove fewer than 80 miles
- 99% of respondents said home charging was easy to use
- 71% of respondents said they are now more likely to purchase a BEV than they were a year ago while only 9% said they are less likely.
- 88% of respondents said they are interested in buying a BEV or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle in the next five years
By the end of the lease period, MINI E drivers overwhelmingly thought that the electricity for charging their BEV should come from renewable resources such as solar, wind and hydropower, and were strongly opposed to using coal to generate electricity for their vehicles.
The UC Davis study is part of a whole set of studies being conducted by the BMW Group on electric vehicles, which includes research in China, Germany and the U.K.
Compelling combination of "clean and funâ€
UC Davis Plug-in Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Research Center director Tom Turrentine said the study highlights three new and potentially significant ways that drivers value BEVs. First, the MINI E meets drivers' desire for a vehicle that is both environmentally friendly and fun to drive. Drivers loved the vehicle's quick acceleration and quiet operation.
"What we heard over and over again in our interviews is how fun it was to drive. That's in part because it's a MINI and in part because of the feel of electric drive,†Turrentine said.
Second, drivers find value in using electricity as a fuel and in mastering their individual energy use through efficient driving behaviors. "The combination of limited onboard energy and extreme efficiency make BEVs the premier appliance for people to experience energy use,†says Turrentine. Additionally, the drivers learned to appreciate the car's powerful regenerative braking function, which returns energy to the battery and allowed them to drive using a single pedal for acceleration and braking.
Third, drivers like to develop their clean driving territory. "Drivers start talking about the MINI E as a special way to explore their region. They of course can go anywhere in their gas car, but they like to talk about where they can go in their MINI E,†Turrentine says.
"Range anxiety†not a big issue for experienced MINI E drivers
While range is often held up as a limitation of BEVs, the MINI E's range of around 100 miles was acceptable to most drivers most of the time. "We found that households adapted their driving around the capabilities of the vehicle and even explored ways to maximize the use of the MINI E,†said Turrentine.
By studying the MINI E drivers' usage patterns and need for range, researchers were able to determine that strategic placement of charging stations could allow drivers to reach most of their desired destinations using a BEV that has a range of 90 to 100 miles. Most charging occurred at home, at night, and 99% of respondents said home charging was easy to use.
BMW Group prepares 2nd phase of its EV strategy with BMW ActiveE
"The MINI E studies are extremely valuable for us as they show that electric cars are already today offering an attractive mobility solution to a broader spectrum of customers. While reducing the tail pipe emissions to zero, the MINI E provides the fun that users expect when driving our products. The results of the UC Davis study have a direct impact on the development of all BMW Group electric vehicles to come,†says Ulrich Kranz, head of project i, BMW Group. "BMW Group now is developing the next generation of full electric cars, with the BMW ActiveE test fleet coming into the market in 2011 and the series production BMW i3 following in 2013.â€
The all-electric BMW ActiveE will be available in select US markets beginning in late 2011, for a two-year lease at $499/month, with a $2,250 down payment. Details can be found at www.BMWUSA.com/ActiveE. Join the growing conversation about the future of mobility at www.BMWActivetheFuture.com.

The alliance consists mainly of ethnic Tajiks, Uzbeks and Hazaras; the Pashtuns, the largest ethnic group, may not accept a new government unless they play a major role.
The opposition group agreed to participate in talks outside Afghanistan, but continues to resist U.S. and British pressure to accept international peacekeeping troops.
With the Taliban out of Kabul, Afghanistan's capital, there are growing concerns that the power vacuum could suck the country into the same anarchy that enabled the Taliban's rise.
In Kabul, there was music in the streets over the weekend, but also fear. Even as they celebrated the defeat of the Taliban, residents worried about a return to civil war and anarchy.
Four Western Journalists Killed
Today on the road from Jalalabad to Kabul, four Western journalists were killed — a reminder that the country has far to go before peace and stability.
The four were traveling as part a convoy of media vehicles when they were stopped in territory that was earlier believed to be safely under Northern Alliance control.
Near the town of Serobi, 35 miles east of Kabul, gunmen told their drivers not to go any further because there were snipers up on the hills shooting at cars as they were going by.
Ashiquallah, one of the drivers, told The Associated Press that a bus then came by and contradicted the gunmen's claims. But when the cars' drivers tried to speed away, the gunmen stopped them, he said.
The gunmen then ordered all the journalists out of the cars into the surrounding hills, and told their drivers to leave. When the journalists refused, they were beaten, Ashiquallah said. Then they were shot and killed
According to their employers, the journalists were Australian television cameraman Harry Burton and Azizullah Haidari, an Afghan photographer, both of Reuters; Maria Grazia Cutuli of Corriere della Sera; and Julio Fuentes of El Mundo.
Local militia have set out to recover the bodies, but turned back because the the ambush site was too dangerous, they said.
The militia commander in the area said he did not believe the gunmen were Taliban, but Ashiquallah said the gunmen told the journalists shortly before killing them, "'What, you think the Taliban are finished? We are still in power and we will have our revenge."'
British Troops Get Cold Shoulder
In other developments:
U.S. troops were joined by 85 British SAS commandos who arrived in Bagram on Friday, but the new arrivals were not greeted with welcome arms by the Northern Alliance, who seem to be growing mistrustful of the increased foreign presence in Afghanistan. Northern Alliance leaders argued that only 15 British soldiers were needed to help protect and maintain the air base. Britain has as many as 6,000 troops on standby to fly in.
Eight Western aid workers held for three months by the Taliban in Afghanistan were reunited with their families in Frankfurt, Germany, on Sunday. The workers had been detained since Aug. 3 on suspicion of preaching Christianity, a charge for which they could have faced the death penalty. The group was released when Northern Alliance forces took control of Kabul.
ABCNEWS' John McWethy, Jim Wooten and Don Dahler contributed to this report.

06 Jun MAXI IN NYC
posted on Friday, June 6, 2014 in OUTFIT
photos by marcel @ onedapperstreet.com
The weather is so hot and humid in New York City right now, you would've believe! I was sweating in this maxi skirt (which is actually so lightweight and breezy) and this tee (sans the jacket). I like heat, but humidity, not so much. But hey, I better start getting used to it. Only going to get more intense from here on in. Better than a freezing winter I guess ;)

List Price: $29.50Publisher: Columbia University PressBinding: PaperbackPages: 296Size: 6.00" wide x 9.00" long x 0.50" tall Weight: 0.836Language: English
This collection critically examines "tolerance," "secularism," and respect for religious "diversity" within a social and political system dominated by Sufi brotherhoods. Through a detailed analysis of Senegal's political economy, essays trace the genealogy and dynamic exchange among these concepts while investigating public spaces and political processes and their reciprocal engagement with the state, Sunni reformist and radical groups, and non-religious organizations. Through a rich and nuanced historical ethnography of the formation of Senegalese democracy, this anthology illuminates the complex trajectory of the Senegalese state and its reflection of similar postcolonial societies. Offering rare perspectives on the country's "successes" since liberation, this collection identifies the role of religion, gender, culture, ethnicity, globalization, politics, and migration in the reconfiguration of the state and society, and it makes an important contribution to democratization theory, Islamic studies, and African studies. Scholars of comparative politics and religious studies will also appreciate the volume's treatment of Senegal as both an exceptional and universal example of postcolonial development.

This is your chance to get exclusive PRE-SET APPOINTMENTS filling your schedule.
Elite Leads Program Members not only get pre-set appointments but they will also get additional Preferred Leads, access to our Proven Phone Selling Sales Process, and ongoing sales training plus weekly coaching sessions to help you get results faster.
- Pre-Set Appointments (We set the appointments FOR YOU!)
- Preferred Leads
- Safe Money Millionaire Virtual Sales Process and Ongoing Training (Get the most effective sales process ever developed specifically for our prospects and IUL/Annuity Products)
- Producer Autopilot CRM software system
- Celebrity Expert Training with National Radio Host Steve Sanchez
- Personal Coaching with Brett & Ethan
Pre-Set Appointments
We've been spending a king's ransom on marketing to generate inbound phone calls so we get people on the phone immediately rather than chasing prospects over the phone.
The calls come into our call center and we focus on finding their financial pains and frustrations so they are invested in having a meeting with you to resolve that major problem in their life.
Once the appointment is set we send the prospect a confirmation email with the date and time of the appointment and it includes a homework assignment of a compelling video they need to watch before meeting with you.
We also mail a hard copy of the Safe Money Millionaire book along with our famous "Shock and Awe" packaged designed to educate and pre-sell prospects before even talk to them.
You are notified as soon as possible so you can call to confirm the appointment.
For the majority of the leads we also get cell phone numbers so you can text a reminder to the prospect a few hours before the appointment.
Preferred Leads
These are the same type of prospects as our pre-set appointment leads who have not yet set an appointment. Normally they want to get the book first and have some time to read it so they are often even better, more educated prospects.
THE NEW SAFE MONEY MILLIONAIRE SALES FORMULA & Ongoing Sales Training.
Over the past year our team of in house agents has been hard at work spending hours on the phones generating appointments, working with prospects and closing huge cases in our laboratory.
We've recorded calls, dissected them, analyzed them, and put them back together. We've tested new approaches, improved the scripting and questioning techniques, and developed a process that is working to close 2 apps per week per agent…ALL over the phone!
In fact, we've taken 2 complete rookies to the industry and turned them into 6 figure (in commission) closers in less than 12 months. Selling over the phone!
The results have been spectacular in creating an effective sales process to close deals over the phone.
When you work with us you will receive our proven sales process.
The scripting to set appointments at the highest conversion level possible.
The confirmation call: Make sure your appointment is planning on showing up
The "You missed your appointment call" (This is killer! Incredibly effective at actually getting people to call you back!)
The First Homework assignment: This includes the email to send and the video they need to watch.
The First appointment: Credibility and ground rules, the prospects concerns, the current financial environment, recommendations and trade-offs, building value, and gaining commitment.
The Second Appointment: Review changes and concerns, the enemies of wealth, the future financial environment and taxes, blueprint for success, health and taking the app.
Getting the App Scripting: Make getting the app an easy part of the process on the second or third appointment all over the phone!
The Second Appointment Homework Video: Continue to develop pain and educate the prospects between the first and second appointments.
The Third Appointment Homework IUL Video: A powerful video about all the benefits of the IUL.

Several media and civil liberties organizations have combined to file a request with the Department of Defense that key documents in the trial of Bradley Manning be made public.

Following the ouster last month of a lesbian Cub Scout leader in Ohio, the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) organization is facing intense pressure to abandon its long-time policy of barring homosexuals from serving as Scout leaders.
Jennifer Tyrrell, a Cub Scout den leader from Bridgeport, Ohio, was removed from that position in early April after Boy Scout officials discovered that she was a lesbian. The Scout Oath emphasizes the importance of Boy Scouts being "morally straight," and homosexual conduct violates that value, BSA officials explained.
President Obama will soon apprise Congress of his plan to supply arms with which to equip Italian drones. According to a story printed by Reuters, "within two weeks" the Obama administration will proceed with the implementation of its projected sale of American-made drones to Italy. Italy will then join the United Kingdom in deploying the remote control weapons loaded with "laser-guided bombs and Hellfire missiles."
Despite an increasingly noisy chorus of resistance to many of its provisions, the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) passed the House, 248-168, on April 26. Passage in the House was assured with more than 70 percent of those supported by the Tea Party voting for it. It moved to an uncertain future in the Senate.
The opposition noted that the bill's many flaws included precious little "protection" for rights guaranteed in the Bill of Rights, especially those guaranteed by the Fourth Amendment.
Upon receipt of verification from Hawaii that President Obama was born there, Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett said that it satisfies his state's requirement for placing the President's name on the ballot for the November election.
The conservative think tank Cato Institute has announced its latest effort to hold local police accountable by establishing its National Police Misconduct Reporting Project. Its purpose is to "determine the extent of police misconduct in the United States ... and report on issues about police misconduct in order to enhance public awareness."
George Washington once said, "Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion." But what do studies of the behavior of religious and secular people really show? Which group witnesses better for its world view?
This Memorial Day, before we further decorate the earth with more graves of more young Americans, let us pause to consider who really "supports the troops." Is it the architects of our policy of perpetual war? Is it those who are eager to send young Americans to die in other people's quarrels or even for other nations' imperial ambitions, all under the endlessly "entangling alliances" of the United Nations and NATO? Or is it those who do not want to put American soldiers in harm's way except when necessary to defend our own country and liberties?
Presumptive Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is essentially playing one card in his quest for Barack Obama's job: his business experience taught him how economies work. But Romney's own pitch raises doubts about this.
The Obama administration has come under fire after the Health and Human Services Department (HHS) hired a public relations firm to help restore the muddied reputation of the President's controversial Affordable Care Act. The $20-million, taxpayer-funded contract was awarded to a PR firm called Porter Novelli, which helped launch the Agriculture Department's renowned healthy food pyramid.

"It actually wasn't on South Street the first time we encountered it," Ramsey said. "It was downtown, in what we call Singer City, where after school, through messaging, kids decided to gather in one of the shopping complexes called Gallery Place. They were put out of there because there were so many of them and they were a little disruptive, but then they started to go through the streets and knocking people over. They went in the Macy's Department Store and caused some issues and problems. We did make a few arrests down there."
Mobs aren't new. Throughout history, crowds of people have gathered, often to protest. And the fun side of flash mobs has given us Michael Jackson dances at the Lisbon Airport, "Hammertime" at a mall in Los Angeles and a few hundred people gathering for a friendly public pillow fight.
But Temple University professor Frank Farley says the difference is the speed at which flash mobs can be assembled, the size, and whether they have a purpose.
"The more people that you have, the more likelihood something unusual can happen and it can spread," Farley said. "The biggest problem is the numbers. You know, and if it's organized around a theme, [a] performance of some sort, that's one thing. If it's ill-defined or undefined, then it leaves it up to people in the crowd perhaps to create something, and that can sometimes be bad.
"When anyone gets together and there's unpredictability and uncertainty, and there's a strong thrill factor involved here, and a lot of arousal and excitement. Sometimes it can spill over to the dark side and, almost by chance, almost by accident, something happens, and then other people pile on."
Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter said he'll institute a stricter curfew if necessary.
"Pillow fights. ... You want to have a pillow fight?" Nutter said. "I'll give out the first 100 pillows. You want to act like a knuckle-head? You'll be one of the first hundred arrested."
Nutter also said it's time for parents to take control. He said parental control extended to kids' text messages or Twitter posts.
"I'll just give you my own experience," he said. "When I was a kid, I didn't own anything in my house. I happened to be a guest. It was a room my parents let me use. I couldn't have anything in my room that was inappropriate. ... Many of the parents are paying for those accounts, so I think they have some right to the information.
"But parents need to know what's going on in their kids' lives. When they don't, unfortunately, sometimes there are bad consequences. They're still kids. That's what this is about."
Some Philadelphia residents voice frustration with their city for the violence.
"I'm trying to figure out why we in Philadelphia couldn't get it right," resident Sharon McWilliams said. "In every other city that has these flash mobs, it's all about the art scene. My daughter who lives in New York, all of a sudden 700 people converged at a certain time and then they all start to dance, or they all start to sing. I don't know how somehow Philadelphia didn't get it [right] again."
To be fair, Philly has "gotten it." There've been pillow fights and people freezing like statues at the 30th Street Train Station, and a dance on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum, made famous by the "Rocky" movies. None of those events went bad. Still, the mayor wishes he could harness all that flash mob energy and put it to good use.
"We'll all meet somewhere and rehab a house," Nutter said. "We'll all meet at the library and study together, help out on SATs or something like that. ... Go volunteer to clean up a neighborhood. There's always stuff. ... Two-thousand young people cleaning up a neighborhood, I love it. There are positive things that you can do."

Guy Zima's defeat in Tuesday's Green Bay City Council election is startling for a community that always assumed he would remain an alderman as long as he wanted to be one. But it also is a sign that there is a growing desire for progress to overtake obstruction in city politics.
No alderman has had a greater influence on city government in the last quarter century than Zima, but his loss to Jim Warner in District 9 on the city's near west side has taken Zima out of the decision-making arena. He ran unopposed Tuesday for the Brown County Board where he has been that body's chairman for the past four years.
Zima has long been regarded as a shrewd politician - even by his enemies - and has been routinely and convincingly kept in office by those who hailed his tax-saving agenda, his willingness to confront city government leaders, and his ability to respond to constituents' needs. But he also had a reputation for opposing many projects other aldermen said resulted in delays that eventually cost the city money.
He has been on the City Council since 1976 and has weathered charges of ethics violations and manipulation of other elected officials. Zima also was known to browbeat city employees who avoided him when they could.
At the same time, Zima has been a strong supporter of programs to address social issues such as teen pregnancy and drug abuse. He has been a tireless worker who seldom missed a committee meeting and almost never missed a monthly City Council meeting.
It is possible that economic development in Green Bay in the past year, as highlighted by decisions by Schreiber Foods and Associated Banc-Corp to increase their downtown work force, convinced enough residents that Zima's style and personality had grown weary. It was telling that he was the only county supervisor who voted against a plan to use surplus revenue from an increased tax on hotel and motel rooms to help pay for the KI Convention Center expansion.
Zima's defeat doesn't mean he won't seek election to the council in the future. But nevertheless, Tuesday's election marked the end of an era.

compatibility of nVidia GeForce 6200 with OpenSuSE 10.2
Hi to everyone!
I want to build a mediacenter based on OpenSuSE 10.2.
Anyone have tested the nVidia GeForce 6200 (256MB AGP) if work correctly under OpenSuSE (10.2 with Xorg 7.2 final, not RC2 as shipped with the distro) and the TV-Out function is available (and working :-)?
Right driver are the latest version (1.0-9746 released on 21 December 2006)?
Many thanks for any suggestion!
Best Regards,
Francesco from Italy.
Re: compatibility of nVidia GeForce 6200 with OpenSuSE 10.2
today I've tested GeForce 6200 256MB AGP with DVI and TV-out under OpenSuse 10.2.
It works great by following the installation tutorial on www.opensuse.org.
Only a small problem: TV-out show on my PAL TV grey images, no colors!
I've tryed various combination of resolution and refresh ratio on second monitor (TV-out) but nothing, always grayed images!
I suspect the solution is to modify the xorg.conf but HOW?

Can I exercise after rhinoplasty? By this I mean heavy weightlifting, intensive training and protein intake.
Exercising After Rhinoplasty?
Doctor Answers 20
When to exercise after rhinoplasty? Use common sense.
I recommend no exercise for two weeks and then gradually returning to exercise using common sense. If you strain your ankle and it hurt when you ran but did not hurt if you walked or walked fast, then you might exercise by having a long walk. If it didn't If you jogged, you consider jogging. If it still hurt when you ran, you wouldn't run.
Similarly, as you increase your exercise after the first two weeks, if you notice pain and pressure swelling or pleading from the nose, then what you've done is too much. So follow simple common sense and you might be able to get back to your normal exercise routine sooner than you think.

Intense exercise after rhinoplasty
Typically, somewhere between 4-6 weeks, you can return to strenuous activities including intense exercise and weight lifting. At this point, it should not cause any damage to your nose.
You should clarify with your surgeon what restrictions you have and when you can return to exercise and strenuous activities.
6 Weeks After Surgery

May Take Up To 8 Weeks To Return To Exercise Following Rhinoplasty
Patients who undergo rhinoplasty are often eager to resume their normal exercise routine. Unfortunately, any maneuver that elevates blood pressure in the immediate post-operative period can result in bleeding. This risk increases when septoplasty is performed in combination with rhinoplasty.
For this reason, we recommend avoiding most exertion for about two weeks following surgery. Strenuous activities such as running and weight lifting should be avoided for six to eight weeks following surgery.
It's important to discuss these issues with your surgeon before resuming exercise. Your surgeon will be able to tell you when it's appropriate to resume your normal exercise routine.
Exercising After Rhinoplasty
I would abstain from any cardio or workout exercise until 2 weeks of recovery, you may still have swelling. I would be Cautious so you don't cause any trauma.

Wait two weeks after rhinoplasty to resume exercising
Web reference: http://www.seattlefacial.com/photogallery/rhinoplasty_photos24.html
Minimize heavy activity for a couple weeks after rhinoplasty surgery
As others have already stated, avoid all strenuous activity, especially heavy weight lifting or intensive training.
Any activity which elevates your blood pressure or causes Valsalva effect may exacerbate and cause bruising, at worst even frank bleeding. Strenuous activities to avoid include, but are not limited to running, exercise, weight lifting, pilates, aerobics, cycling, climbing, and sex. Yoga should be avoided too. Patients should even avoid straining on the toilet! Your plastic surgeon will inform you when you can resume normal activity. Most patients may resume regular activities within a couple weeks.

Interesting thread going on up in the ORG.
Some highlights:
More of the same from Espn this AM on the trade rumors involving Adam Dunn and JR. The Dodgers are desperate to get some power in their lineup and Dunn fits the bill of the 40 hr guy they are looking for. Look for talks to heat up soon.
Rumors also continue on JR to the Braves.
I am always one that feels that if a rumor stays around enough it just might happen. What does everyone else think?
I agree.
I was listening to Tracy Jones (don't ask) yesterday and he was telling the masses that this team was "close" to being a pennant winning team. Sure enough, the next 2-3 callers all said that they appreciated his comments because they also felt this team was close.
I don't think this team is that close. They need several pieces added. A front three of Harang, Arroyo, and Homer is nice. Belisle looks like he could be an immediate #4. That part is nice. Get rid of Conine and Hatteberg and you've got Votto to fill in, and for less money, that's not bad either. Phillips is nice. Encarnacion is nice, too. Gonzalez isn't a bad "veteran" player at SS (but isn't a good solution long term). Ross at catcher isn't the best, but he's not the worst option either. I surely wouldn't keep him when he starts to get expensive, though. Hamilton is great in the OF. Bruce will be up sometime to take over for Griffey. Need another OF if both Dunn and Griffey are traded. So in the rotation we need a #5 starter going forward and in the field we need another OFer (if Dunn and Griffey are traded), and you could argue that the Reds have Cueto and Freel to fill those two roles. That's not all bad, and close enough where I would say this group isn't that far away...
The problems come in the bullpen and on the bench. Currently both are horrid. The Reds need to get rid of Maj and Stanton. Weathers and Santos need to be traded. We need to give important innings to the young guys (Burton, Coutlangus, Coffey, MacBeth, Salmon) and bring up others to help them and get their feet wet (Medlock, Guevara).
The bench: Hopper is fine. Freel is fine. Moeller and Valentin need to go. Castro needs to go. Maybe you could keep Hatteberg for another year to backup and provide insurance for Votto next year. I wouldn't mind Hatteberg as a bench player. The other three positions need to be address, though. A better backup catcher (than Moeller) would be nice. A better LH pinch hitter (than Valentin) would also be nice. A backup infielder to replace Castro? Yeah, we need one of those.
So, are we close? Eh, we're not that far, I guess, but in order to stay close, we have to purge the veterans that Wayne seems so happy to collect, we have to turn the bullpen over to the youngsters soon so they can get invaluable experience and adjust to the level we need them to be at, and we need to bring in some bats for the bench. We can be a lot closer going into next season than we are now, but if this F.O. doesn't do the right things we could also be a lot further away.
Trading chips: Griffey, Dunn, Freel, Hatteberg, Lohse, Weathers and Santos.
Pieces needed: Starting OF (preferably young and RH), Young closer or closer prospect, 5th starter (if Cueto isn't ready by ST 2008), Backup C, Backup INF, LH bench bat.
We should be able to fill all of those spots and get more prospects with the players we have to move, IMO.Right now, the names and teams you hear most about is Griffey to Atlanta and Dunn to the Dodgers. I'm not at all against dealing both of them,I could definitely see Griffey and Lohse plus some cash for Salty and a good minor league arm. I could easily see that, and I would greatly approve of such a deal.
I personally think the Griffey, Loshe, and cash for Saltalamacchia and a minor league arm. Any time you can get a 22 year old, switch hitting catcher who can hit and play D you do it. The Braves have McCann, so Salty is expendable. The deal also gives the Braves a back of the rotation guy in Loshe. The trade works for both things, IMO.
The issue then becomes with trading Dunn. IMO, if you deal Dunn and Griffey you MUST get an OF bat in return. Preferably a right handed one. This team has two legit right handed bats (Phillips and Edwin), and don't have one anywhere close to being ready. Now the Dodgers do have a guy like that they could trade along with an arm (Matt Kemp), but the question is do you want the two studs you get back for Griffey and Dunn to both be position players (Saltalamacchia and Kemp). Now you would still get a 2-3 solid arms in return, but no none of them would be the center of your deals.
Is that a problem?
Just for fun, here is a potential defensive alignment.
LF: (Hopper)????
CF: Kemp
RF: Hamilton
3B: Encarnacion
SS: Gonzalez
2B: Phillips
1B: Votto
C: Saltalamacchia

Hello Everyone,
it has been a long time without any dev response, indeed. I am really sorry about that but there has been a lot going on in personal lives of the team and so there is almost no time to work on this mod. And frankly, a lot of community enthusiasm for modding has been lost thanks to two unsuccessful attempts of HD Interactive to create Nexus 2 and also NBC Universal banning incredible BattleStar Galactica modification.
Let's answer the most important question that you possibly have about SG: War Begins, B5: Conflicts of Loyalty 2 and W40k: Battlefleet Nexus. Are these modifications dead? The answer is NO! However, there will be no massive releases or regular updates as there is not enough free time for such things.
What is it that you should look forward to during 2014 then? SG: War Begins is going to get small update fixing few thing there and there, bringing back energy weapons and improving drone mechanics (a little) for Ancient Battleship, visually altering some parts of GUI, improving some planet visuals and very few other small things. W40k: Battlefleet Nexus might be (finally) getting a small Alpha Version release with handful Imperial and Chaos ships by the end of 2014. B5: Conflicts of Loyalty 2 ... well, let's say that we will see what we can do if there is enough free time for this one too.
---In the meantime, have fun playing Nexus: TJI

Anosmia / Loss Of Smell
Treatment and Prognosis
There are no treatments for anosmia itself. The underlying cause is found out and treated. In cases like sinusitis, complete recovery of smell may not possible even after successful treatment.
There are no treatments for anosmia itself. The underlying cause is found out and treated. In cases like sinusitis, complete recovery of smell may not possible even after successful treatment. Anosmia due to colds or viral infections may be temporary. Treatment of respiratory allergies or chronic upper respiratory infections often reverses anosmia due to the same.
Adding concentrated flavoring agents to food improves the enjoyment of eating in patients who retain some sense of smell. It is also important that smoke alarms be fitted in homes of patients with anosmia. Extra caution should be attached to stored food since they may have difficulty to detect food spoilage. Use of natural gas for cooking or heating should be done with great caution as gas leakage may go undetected by the patient. Avoid excessive use of nasal decongestants.
Prognosis of Anosmia
Chances of recovery are excellent when the cause of anosmia is a reversible one like nasal inflammation. However in cases where nerve damage is the problem, recovery may be difficult.

I'm 46 year old white male and as far back as I can remember I have not had a sense of smell. Sometimes I'm grateful I don't but most of the time I really wish I did. I work in Law Enforcement and it is a sense that would really come in useful most of the time. I don't have a loss of apatite. I am more drawn to sweet foods than most other types of foods. I had an extreme case of chicken pox as a kid...far worse than most people. As a matter of fact the Doctors in the emergency room I went to took pictures of me because they had not seen a case as severe as mine. I have had severe sinusitis as a young adult 25-33. I had surgery that opened up all my sinuses and removed some huge polyps be hind my right eye. I was getting horrible head aches as a result of my chronic sinus problems. Since that time I haven't had anymore problems. I used to smoke for about 14 or so years but have not smoked for about 15-16 years. I would love to be able to smell my wife's perfume, her cooking, or on the job I'd love to be able to detect the smell of alcohol and drugs. Is there any hope of gaining a sense of smell? Where would I go to get answers>

I am a 32-year-old male who has been suffering from anosmia for the past 10 years. Initially, I had sinusitis problems and has been undergoing different kinds of treatments without any significant relief. one of those was the ayurvedic treatment of nasya for approximately 10 days, which made my life a hell, where I lost my smell and consulted an ENT and was told was due to mucus infection and had undergone again various treatments resulting in polypoidectomy too, but everything was in vain. Ultimately, these treatments have provided nothing, but depression, a life without taste, smell, nothing more than a hell, it just continues. Right now, I am undergoing homeopathic treatment, but that too without any success. It should be noted that once in a while, for a fraction of second, I do get smell, and it vanishes for ever. Please may I know kindly if there is any remedy for me to regain my smell and taste back, so that my life will be of some meaning to me. Please do guide me as to which physician I need to consult. Of note, I had CT scan about 5 years ago, which did not reveal anything of significance.

I didn't take any antibiotics but treated some medicine like, antazole, rhinozole, alactrol, flunospray e.t.c. I didn't take medicine for 3 years also. What can I do now?

Lost my sense of smell a year ago. Went from NO smell to horrible phantom smells. 3 different physicians said there was nothing that could be done. Went to an herbalist and a chiropractor. Having great success! No longer having phantom smells [sticky sweet peach, acetone, cat urine, and soggy burnt popcorn]. Can identify some smells now and most foods are starting to taste normal. For me, I am having success with the following supplements (Zinc, Adreno-lymph, Total Thyroid, B-12, Vitamin E, Blood Build, Coral Calcium, Ultimate Green Zone, and Proactazyme). Dr. J.D. Stanfield, Chiropractor in McPherson, Kansas did a lot of research to find supplements to support nerve growth and mucous lining. He also researched some special facial techniques that have been making a difference for me. I am thrilled to be tasting food again and actually smelling things like flowers, cilantro, cinnamon, and more.

Hi. I hope you are already regaining some of your smell by now. I can't say supplements would help you for sure but look carefully at your diet and your hormone balance. As a vegetarian with a hysterectomy, I think these two things had an influence on my loss of smell. When I started addressing the deficiencies from both, my smell started coming back. Hopefully your brain injury just needed some time to heel. After my brain surgeries in '83, it took quite some time to regain the things I lost. Don't lose hope.

It's an irresistible urge for a particular type of Milwaukeean. You're walking down a busy street and something catches your eye: an architectural detail, the name on a sign, the view through an open window. A building that might have seemed like the visual equivalent of background noise - always there but rarely noticed - suddenly takes on a life of its own. You wonder: Where did that one come from? What's its story? What goes on inside?
That urge to know, that historical nosiness, will be satisfied on a grand scale later this month. In the first edition of what promises to be an annual event, Historic Milwaukee Inc. is sponsoring Doors Open Milwaukee, a free showcase of downtown architecture Sept. 24-25.
The event's organizers have lined up nearly 100 buildings in and around the city's center that will be open to all comers. For two days, you won't have to attend a service, buy a drink, pay for a concert ticket or talk your way past an inquisitive security guard to sample the treasures in the heart of town.
What you'll find inside will be just as various as the buildings themselves. Some will offer guided tours, others will feature historical displays, and still others will simply be there for you to enjoy. Historic Milwaukee volunteers will be on hand to provide event information and to stamp your Doors Open passport.
There will also be a variety of free in-depth tours: through the Third Ward, along the Milwaukee Riverwalk, down historic Walnut St., up the City Hall bell tower and across the Menomonee Valley, to name just a few. I'll be leading a tour of Yankee Hill on Saturday morning, and others will share their knowledge about everything from the Latino community to Milwaukee's Irish history.
The spark for this extravaganza was supplied by George Wagner, a retired public librarian whose domain once included the Central Library's Humanities Room - a repository of all things Milwaukee. Wagner was introduced to Doors Open during a 2006 visit to Toronto, the first North American city to import the idea from Europe. He was intrigued, but it wasn't until Wagner experienced Denver's Doors Open event in 2008 that he was completely hooked. Downtown Milwaukee, he knew, had more historic buildings in a smaller area than either Toronto or Denver, and the Doors Open concept seemed tailor-made for our city.
Historic Milwaukee was the obvious sponsor. As the city's leading historic preservation and education group, Historic Milwaukee has been exposing Milwaukeeans to the wonders of their built environment for more than 30 years, through a program of tours, talks and the annual Spaces and Traces neighborhood showcase. Doors Open dovetailed perfectly with Historic Milwaukee's mission.
History definitely will be served. The buildings on the Doors Open roster constitute a Who's Who - or What's What - of downtown architecture. A number of the structures are public, including such civic icons as City Hall, the Central Library and the Milwaukee County Historical Society, all of which have been gloriously restored in recent years. They're open almost every day, but when was the last time you visited any of them? One of the best things about Doors Open is that it adds a layer of intentionality to the urban experience. You come to see in person, not to glance in passing.
Other building interiors are far less familiar, unless you happen to work in them. Northwestern Mutual will offer guided tours of its home office, a landmark that has graced the eastern end of Wisconsin Ave. since 1914. A few blocks away, you can visit the elegant Mitchell Building and its equally elegant neighbor, the Mackie Building - two of the finest Victorian commercial structures in America.
Several inner sanctums of the city's elite, including the University Club, the Milwaukee Athletic Club and the Cudahy Tower, will be on display, and Doors Open will feature a generous assortment of churches as well - from Yankee Hill standouts like Immanuel Presbyterian to humbler houses of worship such as St. George Melkite, a historic haven for Lebanese and Syrian Catholics.
A building need not be old to be a landmark, of course. Some of the nearly new structures on the tour will include the Milwaukee School of Engineering's Kern Center, the Community Sailing Center's lakefront home and Marquette University's Law School, whose facade mirrors the curve of the Marquette Interchange.
Some of the highlights will simply be experiences. Where else, on a single day in a single downtown, could you stand on the deck of a lake schooner (the Denis Sullivan), visit an NBA locker room (the Bradley Center), hear about German revolutionaries (Turner Hall) and enjoy the panorama from the top of Wisconsin's tallest building (U.S. Bank)? The Doors Open Milwaukee website offers a wealth of information about all these landmarks and many others that will be showcased later this month.
Just as no two human faces are precisely identical, no two cities look exactly alike. Each develops a distinctive and evolving blend of buildings that interact in distinctive ways with their given landscape. Together they constitute, on one level, the soul of a city. Just as you can read an individual's personality in his or her face, a community's character is visually expressed in its built environment.
Despite some major losses, Milwaukee has an unusually character-rich downtown. Every chapter in the city's history is present, from the angled bridges of frontier days to cutting-edge condos and office towers. Together they tell Milwaukee's story, and the book will be open for all of us to read later this month.
The event's organizers are hoping that thousands of Milwaukeeans will choose to be tourists in their own hometown, and I certainly plan to be one of them. Doors Open promises remarkable variety, unprecedented access and did I mention that it's all free? Here is a unique opportunity to explore the riches of our common heritage. So put on your walking shoes, bring the kids and open a few doors. You'll never know what's behind them unless you enter.
John Gurda, a Milwaukee historian, writes a column the first Sunday of each month in Crossroads.
