So my Re is moving me from Novarel trigger shot to probably Follistim. Anyone paying out of pocket? What is it running you a month for the extra RE time and meds? I may have to take a few months off to save just checking to see how much on average I need a month... Might need to play the lottery too!
Cost without insurance???

TTC baby #2 since 2010 (Blighted Ovum 2010)
No clue on the RE (mine is a family friend)... My Follistim was $276 last month at Metro Drugs. It was a 300iu vial and since this was my first month, I dont know if its more expense as the dose goes up. The ladies here are super helpful, so hopefully you will get a better answer soon! Good Luck!

There was a post awhile back (like 4 months) that someone had researched the costs...I tried to find it and had no luck:-( Maybe someone else will remember it and help find it!
Ask your RE's office about donated meds...I had a box leftover and donated it to them for women w/o insurance. Also, maybe see if Gonal F is cheaper than Follistim (same thing) and if it is, ask your RE to change your script...GL!!!!!!!!
Me (34) + DH (41) = DS (6) Twin DD's (1)
I pay out of pocket for everything, and here is our breakdown:
Cycle Monitoring:
Office visit - 5 @ $70 each ($350 per cycle)
u/s - 5@ $100 each ($500 per cycle)
estradiol lab - 5 @ $45 each ($225 per cycle)
Progesterone - 2 @ $45 each ($90 per cycle)
This can vary per cycle, but for us that is what we had for our first and second rounds.
from Walgreens Specialty Pharm
(2) Follistim 600 iu cartridges - $1016.09
IUI - our RE does back to back
Sperm wash - 2 @$75 ($150 per cycle)
Artificial Insemination - 2@ $100 ($200 per cycle)
*We did get a $300 coupon not reflected in the above Follistim cost. I used one 600 iu cartridge our first cycle. The second cycle I was given a 600 iu cartridge from a friend ($$ savings $$) and we used all of that one and broke into the second - but still have about 400iu left if this round fails and we have to go again. Also note, each 600iu has about 720iu in it - so that is nice. I did have to order another HCG for the second IUI trigger.
Each RE is different, but they should be able to send you over a price est - mine did and it was very accurate!

I am supposed to start Follistim this month after 3 rounds of Clomid not working. I just found out i have PCOS. Does anyone know any indiviual insurance plans that cover anything? i have looked and every company has been saying no.
Follistim is very expensive. You can ask for Bravelle (basically the same thing according to my RE) which you'll have to mix yourself but it's like half the price.

Thanks Bizzybeee will keep that in mind! Changed RE docs so I am back to Clomid, Trigger shot, and now IUI's. But this is good to know if they go the same treatment plan latter down the line:)

Haylizzle not sure about finding anyone to cover it. I have seen other boards where people recommend that you look into working at a company known to cover. I know most companies cut way back on covering fertility treatments when the economy tanked :(

Review By Jonathan Martini - September 13, 2005
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is the third installment of Ubisoft's leading tactical spy game. With stealth and secrecy being the primary requirements for a successful mission, the Splinter Cell series is a much slower-paced game than your typical first person shooter. As such, the development team has placed a very high importance on shadows and proper light behavior, resulting in awesome visuals and the inclusion of High Dynamic Range option through Shader Model 3.0.
Being such a slow-paced game, 30+ frames is all that's required for a great gaming experience. Might as well take everything we can get, as is the case with 1600x1200 and 4x AA and 8x AF
Enabling HDR provides a more convincing environment within the game. The screen captures above display how a better management of the light source can impact the wall it is illuminating as well as the rocks along the cave wall. The colors are also more vivid when HDR is enabled.
Despite the performance loss incurred by enabling HDR rendering, I believe the added effects are well worth it.

I recently discovered that my favorite barrel horse is proud cut, it doesnt seem to affect him to much. But my two questions are (1) will being proud cut ever affect his performance and (2) he also got in with my mares(I usually keep the geldings and mare seperated) will any of the mares he mounted have a chance of getting pregnant?

Along with how the game handles, British, Insurgent, IDF forces, Canadian, and Russian factions are included, plus a number of community assisted factions are currently in the works.
mikeros says:
"The BF2 engine on its edge... the BF2 gameplay reformed and finally promotes real teamwork. If you search for challenges in tactics and adrenaline boosted firefights this is the FPS game you search.
For me it worths to buy BF2 (if you haven't yet) just to experience this mod. Read More..."
Rated: 94%Forgotten Hope 2
An award-winning World War II modification for Battlefield 2TM and is based on the original Forgotten Hope, a modification for Battlefield 1942TM, one of the most popular multiplayer games ever. Battlefield 1942TM featured land, sea and air combat in a way never before seen. It was the goal of the development team to maximize the game experience by adding both a realistic and enjoyable gameplay to FH and now to FH2.
ADTeam™ says:
"Historically correct, crude and with lots of violence, completely realistic, action in the most pure level, what else can be said about it? one of the most biggest, and in my opinion, greatest modifications ever done for BF2, brings us the real feeling of the WW2 and makes us feel like if we are there. Epic." Read More...

Proper damage and accuracy in this mod are nicely balanced so that you actually can kill things if you aim Read More..."
Keep voting and reviewing your favorite mods and until next time, keep changing the game!
Best mods in one article :3
Alpha Project is still SERIOUSLY under-populated! >.<
Hopefully this bundle will change that
I agree. AP is probably the best BF2 mod I've ever played. The sheer quality that's being poured in is already why I love it so much
I totally agree with your opinion! I can't even imagine what can we find upon the mod's real release! I mean, it's the only mod still incomplete here, v1.0 will still need months or years even until it's available to the public..
Nice article but I've already got all these mods. This was on the startpage so I'm sure many new users will try and love them! :D
Cool, thanks for this
Your name! <3
i was sure trying to find popular mods that people played on bf2 for a while now
The ModDB ranking system is not representative at all its more a joke.
Compairing a PR with 95% and a Allied Intent Xtended or Alpha Project with the same %. Come on guys :D
Every guy gives every mod the same epic super points lower then 8 what a lot of mods compared to others are dont get used. I did it and got directly flaimed. To get an 9/10 it must be extraordinary good. And sorry 95% for a Allied Intent Xtended or Alpha Project. OMG :D
This bothe are not more than a 6/10
ROFL you're full of **** dude, realism is nothing compared to skill action mods, mods in general for this game are badly coded, that doesn't stop us from playing it, moving on, AIX and Alpha project are action mods which has changed more gameplay from vanilla then the random streams of mods seen here dude, and DON'T deserve anything less than an 9, its clear you know nothing of hard work and real skill to total conversion mods, PR is **** code with constant issues, still it deserves the score it gets, **** comments like yours are the biggest joke I've seen yet because mods like these are why BF2 are even playable, and why BF3/4 are a HUGE joke and pretty much put to shame, you know NOTHING about "good" or the gameplay provided and why we REAL people who love classic battlefield, love the mods portrayed here, STOP talking dude, you have NO room to even breath here
If your comment would not be so stupid, what makes me sad, i could laugh about it. :D
So i can only give you a :)
The best mods for one of the best fps games ever! :D
These mods are the best mods for BF2! I have all of them, and i hope this increases the popularity of these mods and Battlefield 2! :D
It MUST!! :D
All bf2 mods were always so similar to the original game.... Highlighting how samey everything had become with semirealistic shooters back in 2006 & 2007 when I first tried all these bf2 mods. Honestly, I like to see new ideas from mods not an endless stream of maps and reskins all with the same functionality.
Its clear you know nothing about total conversion, PR plays NOTHING like BF2, its more tactical and requires REAL skill and teamwork to play, also this engine is VERY limited, its NOT like source where we can literally change the game, still that's what MODS ARE, "NEW skins and models, and of course maps, you have NO idea AT ALL how ****** "new ideas" are dude
this makes me long for the time when I had every custom map ever made/ported for AIX2. many of them seem to be gone from the internet now :(
...anyone remember Hard Justice?
Point of Existence 2 also has great singleplayer/coop
you missed lions roar and tactical war. you can pilot a freaking aircraft carrier,a battleship, and a ton of other stuff that makes bf4s naval strike look like a beach party.
Agreed. Controlling naval systems along side air and land assets brings together the full wrath of modern military aggression. Its like getting change for a $5 bill and finding out they gave you a $20 by mistake.

These healthy fava crostini are so easy to make and you'll simply love their fresh flavor! Enjoy them on their own as a light lunch or serve alongside a bowl of soup for a quick and easy dinner.
Submitted to Foodista by La Tavola Marche
1 cup of double shelled (outer pod & inner shell removed) fresh fava or broad bean
couple glugs of olive oil
garlic clove, skinned, whole
squeeze of lemon
shaved parmesan
salt & pepper
baguette or crusty bread, sliced & toasted
Throw the fava in a pan & cover with water & a little salt. Bring to a boil & lower to a simmer. Cook a couple of minutes until the fava are tender. Drain.
Return the pan to the heat. Pour in a couple glugs of olive oil and the garlic clove. Fry the garlic until browned. Then discard garlic.
Toss the fava into the pan & saute for a minute or two. Then begin mashing with the back of a wooden spoon until you form a paste. If you need to add a bit of water, do so.
Remove fava paste from heat & season with salt & pepper add a squeeze of lemon.
Toast slices of good bread & rub warm fava mixture & top with shaved parmesan. You can drizzle a little really good quality extra virgin olive oil as well if you like.

After the film "300" hit the screen in 2006, Google trends showed a threefold increase in searches for "six-pack abs." And every magazine with the word "muscle" in its title shared a version of a "Secrets of the '300'" workout.
But there are no secrets to seeing your abs. Methods vary, but they sum up as: Train hard. Eat fewer calories than you burn. The end.
The sequel, "300: Rise of an Empire," is now in theaters, and the actors recently gathered at a Century City hotel to talk about their physical transformation from ordinary humans to chiseled glory.
Considering the effect the rippling midsections of "300" had on popular culture, it might be surprising to learn that aesthetics took a distant second to developing the actors' physical performance. Mark Twight, the trainer for the movie and owner of Gym Jones in Salt Lake City, said, "Appearance is the consequence of fitness. We very rarely work from anything but a performance-based perspective."
And the actors echoed that. The roles are physically demanding, and that's what they were trained for. The physiques would come as a result of developing the strength, stamina and skill for mock battle.
But still: those abs.
"With '300.' I said everyone needs to be buff," screenwriter and producer Zack Snyder said. "When you look at the drawings from the graphic novel, that's what they look like."
"It's very hard," said Eva Green, who plays the female lead Artemisia. "It's scary at the beginning to do all the squats and lunges, and it's painful, but then it helps you for the fights."
She learned to move quickly and smoothly and to get "into lower fighting stances, because it looks cool."
Green learned to run, and to cleave heads while doing so. Unlike the first film, "Rise of an Empire" has two lethally efficient female leads.
The other is Lena Heady, who reprises her role as Gorgo the Spartan queen.
"I'm a masochist," she said. "I love Mark. I would say, 'I can't,' and he proves that you can. He designs the program in such a way that you can do it, and afterward you say, 'Wow, I did 900 of those, and I feel great!' "
And Twight pushed Heady to the wall. "The harder the workout, the better she liked it," he said. "I kept dialing up the intensity. She loved punching and kicking and wrecking stuff. She was always willing to get down and dirty and work hard in the gym."
That may be because Heady was waiting for her turn to kick some butt. "In the first movie I didn't get to do what the boys did, and I was envious of that," she said. "I love physical work. I respond to it."
That doesn't mean it wasn't challenging.
"If you're not getting hammered, you're not working hard enough," said Callan Mulvey, who plays Greek soldier Scyllias.
Mulvey, who nearly lost a leg in a 2003 car crash, emphasized that the training was designed to keep the film's cast from harm. "They were so safe, and we warmed up so thoroughly. I never had to worry about any injuries."
Twight also pushed the cast with resistance training.
"It was barbell squats and box jumps and kettle bells and pull-ups and push-ups — and you have 25 minutes to complete it all," Mulvey said. "I did it in 22 minutes, and I was stoked!"
Rodrigo Santoro is reprising his role as Xerxes and looks leaner than in the first movie. "Mark has the ability to make the training incredibly hard but fun at the same time. It's a total combination of suffering that needs to be endured," Santoro said.

More trouble for the fuel cell market: ClearEdge Power files for bankruptcy
By Cosmin Laslau
Fuel cell developer ClearEdge Power has gone bankrupt, officially filing for Chapter 11. The company initially focused on proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, but suffered from a high unit price and a lack of differentiation, prompting caution early on. Nonetheless, ClearEdge was still able to raise money in recent years, including $73 million in funding in 2011 and $36 million in equity financing in 2013.
At the same time, ClearEdge was attempting to pivot from its PEM technology towards the lesser-known phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) architecture, through an acquisition of United Technology Corporation (UTC)'s money-losing fuel cell unit in 2011.
This muddled strategy has left ClearEdge in a difficult situation. Its PEM technology is undifferentiated and costly, and its newer focus on PAFC technology has skeletons in the closet: PAFCs have a notorious history of losing money, with some estimating that UTC frittered away about $1 billion in their PAFC development before deciding to abandon the work.

Does anyone have a configuration they use to stream PC games so that the delay is only 1 second or so? it's hard to get people to react when there is a 5 second delay.
My Sorta-kinda weekly podcast about gaming news article that my team and I find interesting. We try to keep shows to 30 minutes or less.

Former White House press secretary Jim Brady dies at 73
Posted: August 4, 2014 at 1:07 p.m.
WASHINGTON — The family of James Brady, the White House press secretary who was wounded during the 1981 assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan, says he has died. Brady was 73.
Brady undertook a personal crusade for gun control after he suffered a devastating head wound outside the Washington Hilton Hotel on March 30, 1981.
A federal law requiring a background check on handgun buyers bears Brady's name.
Although Brady returned to the White House only briefly, he was allowed to keep the title of presidential press secretary and his White House salary until Reagan left office in January 1989.
The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence is named in his honor.

Judd-1690, PR65
Judd-1690, PR65
Design. The Charles Barber Liberty Head obverse, here in a so-called "transitional" design, nearly the regular issue but dated 1882. Head facing left, similar to the adopted Liberty Head nickel design, but there are slight differences in the position of the stars. The date is below. The reverse is the same as the infamous 1883 NO CENTS reverse: A Roman numeral V is flanked by an agricultural wreath, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA circling the rim and E PLURIBUS UNUM below. Struck in nickel with a plain edge.
Commentary. The transitional patterns such as the Judd-1690 1882 Liberty Head nickel and the Judd-232 1859 half dime are doubly popular, as they are collected both by pattern collectors and by collectors of the regular-series issues and varieties who desire "something special" but might not otherwise dream of collecting patterns in general. With several dozen examples available in the numismatic marketplace, this pattern also has wider availability than most other issues.
Physical Description. A beautiful Gem example, with a sharp strike characteristic of the regular-issue proofs, essentially free of distractions and with gray and champagne hues throughout. A tiny dark spot near the bottom of the 2 in the date provides pedigree identification but is otherwise completely undisturbing. NGC Census: 5 in PR65, 4 finer. PCGS Population: 6 in PR65, 10 finer (12/08).
Provenance. Ex: Stack's private treaty (9/1985).

I'm looking into cord blood banking and was wondering if anyone else is or if they have with previous children they've had.
Is it a good health insurance investment, or more of a rich parents' safety net?
Some statistics for where I'm looking into it suggest that there is a 1 in 200 chance stem cells may be required to assist a person. When you break down that figure, that's actually not that high.
Then there is cost (naturally). It's going to be around NZD $2900 for the initial kit and first year storage. After that it's NZD $215 a year - no guarantee the company doesn't go bust in the meantime.
I'm looking at the pros and cons and trying to get a feel for whether it's a good thing or if money is better spent elsewhere. Your thoughts?
Meeting my daughter somewhere between 21st - 27th November 2011
I think it's more of a novelty thing and not something that is worth the money in any kind of practical terms. I haven't refreshed myself on all the details lately but I think there aren't that many diseases it can be used to treat or cure. I believe it can possibly be used among siblings and other genetic family members so I do feel a little bit of comfort knowing that I have that safety net. I think it can only be used once.
SAHM to 3 boys and 1 man; 22 , 9, 5 and now 1 year old!
Thanks for your input MarineWife.
Yes, I wondered if it might have been a bit of a novelty. I can see potential practical applications for spinal cord injury etc, but when do we stop trying to cover all bases in a world of infinite possibilities and let life become what it is supposed to?
I guess the idea with cord blood is that you don't want to ever have to use it, but just in case. It also means that when the child becomes an adult later on, if advances in cancer etc prove the cord blood to be useful, they have their own supply.
Reading your comments makes me feel a bit more grounded. Thank you!
Meeting my daughter somewhere between 21st - 27th November 2011
I've never done cord blood banking, because like the pp, I want the baby to have all of the blood s/he's supposed to! Here's a good article by a midwife who used to do cord blood collection (she no longer does).
Tallulah Dare 8-01, Marcos Gael 12-04, Cormac Mateo 9-09, Leonidas Ronan 11-11
I do still pay the $900 a year to store the blood we did bank but every time that bill comes around I wonder why. I think there have been some advances in the use of stem cells since we banked the blood but not much. I've also come to disagree with a lot of the medical treatments available for extending life that maybe shouldn't be extended by treating disease that may just be part of the natural process of life. It seems that everything is a disease these days. Aging in and of itself is considered a disease by the medical community. That means that from the moment we are conceived we are diseased. Crazy!

This is me too, the blood belongs to my baby at birth.

We banked DS #1's cord blood. However, I've since done much research and wish we had allowed for delayed cord clamping. We will not be banking Sprout's blood and will delay cord clamping. The article that ultimately led me to decide this is here.

I've never done cord blood banking, because like the pp, I want the baby to have all of the blood s/he's supposed to! Here's a good article by a midwife who used to do cord blood collection (she no longer does).
Wow! I read the article and then followed the link to the cord clamping info page and remark at how much I have to still learn about the physiology of a baby at birth. Thank you for that.
All the other posts so far, in conjunction with this have certainly swayed my vote. I'm hopeful I can go with the delayed as opposed to premature cord clamping. I had no clue that up to 50% of baby's blood volume was swirling around the placenta and cord.
Meeting my daughter somewhere between 21st - 27th November 2011
Ditto this. I think the blood is better used by baby when it's born than after being banked.
#1 born unmedicated after IVF. #2 born unmedicated after FET.
Personally, I would ONLY do private cord blood banking if I had an older child who had a disease that could be cured (at this point) with the stem cells. There's a good post on it at Science & Sensibility (http://www.scienceandsensibility.org/?tag=nicholas-fogelson). Dr. Fogelson (of Academic OBGYN blog) has a great podcast where he talks about private cord blood banking and basically concludes it's totally pointless for most people who do it. He's a major supporter of delayed cord clamping and thinks the baby who's owner of the blood is best off with it (as are most people in the NCB-world who suggest DCC).
I agree with the controversy surrounding private banks. Certainly the costs associated with this procedure are questionable when you consider the benefits. It seems like cryo storage - hoping that the future will cure your disease. Even so, the fact that the stem cells are only good until adult hood really doesn't provide much help for your child later in life. Corporation preying on the vulnerabilities of new parents. http://cordbloodbankingworthitornot.blogspot.com/

Same here!
Sarah, partner to J and mom to DD1 April 30th, 2002 and DD2 May 5th, 2012.
Depending on your care provider and where you live, you could consider donating whatever is left after you have a delayed clamping. It might help someone else in the long run.
This thread got me thinking...
We have a family friend that suffered a spinal cord injury in a 4-wheeler accident about 10 years ago. He's paralyzed from the waist down. For someone like him, if he were to have a child and were to save that child's cord blood would "they" someday be able to use that to help him walk again? If so, that would be one situation where I would consider doing it. But only if the injury had already occurred...not for a "just in case there's an accident someday" kind of thing.
Sarah, partner to J and mom to DD1 April 30th, 2002 and DD2 May 5th, 2012.
BubbleMa, Parents and children aren't always matches, so it would really depend on the situation. As far as I know, stem cells are more useful in bone marrow transplants and so on than they are (so far) for treating spinal cord injuries. If I were a minority, I might consider it more. A friend of ours died at the age of 18 because he was mixed race and they couldn't find a bone marrow donor that matched. Had his mother been able to save his cord blood (which was not an option when he was born), it might have saved him.
I'm still debating it. I have a rare blood type and I just can't shake the possibility that my child could get leukemia or something. At the same time, I know it's like preparing for a really miniscule probability and that it probably doesn't make much sense monetarily or health-wise. I just don't know.
Beautiful baby girl born 8/13/2012. Little star baby lost at 10 weeks pregnant, 12/18/2013. Rainbow baby girl born 12/22/2014.
Cord blood banking and delayed cord clamping are at odds with one another, and while I'm not going to dive into that argument it's something you should be aware of.
As others have said, it's not clear that private banking is a great option. The expense versus the odds of it ever being useful just don't seem to match up. Public banking seems to be a much more reasonable option, and in many places doesn't incur any cost to the donor (ok, the donor's parents, since most newborns don't have a lot of cash).
For us, stem cell use and research on the long-term storage of them would have to be a lot farther along than it is now to consider private banking.
Mother to an adorable girl born May 2012, dealing with recurrent miscarriage.
Personally I would rather baby get that blood immediately. It's very important.
Nic, loving mama to 5 with a SURPRISE 6th on the way.
I wouldn't do private cord blood banking- it's expensive and there is no guarantees- that is, they could damage the cord blood, go out of business, etc, and you are out your $. I do not believe that there are many regulations governing the banks.
With DS#2, I was going to donate his cord blood since he is mixed-race (half white/half asian) but I gave birth the Sunday night before Labor Day, and they told me that no one was around to collect the blood. I guess I could only donate Monday - Friday from 9-5! So we delayed his cord clamping and called it the day.

Electric Organ Discharge
Petrocephalus microphthalmus produces EODs of short duration, which is typical of the entire genus. No sex differences have yet been reported in any population. Similar EOD durations have been observed in the Odzala population of P. microphthalmus (range = 0.252 – 0.511 msec) and among conspecifics from Gabon (range = 0.380 – 0.561 msec). A relatively long, slow rise characterizes the initial part of the first head–positive phase in EODs recorded from the Odzala population, often resulting in a shoulder early during the waveform's head-positive rise to P1, the first main peak. The early head-positive rise and shoulder are very low in amplitude, however, such that they may only be apparent at high amplifier gain. These subtle waveform features appear to be uncommon in EODs of other Petrocephalus species. A similar slow rise (and shoulder) preceding P1 has been recorded among a small number of P. microphthalmus individuals from Gabon, but it seems to be much less common than in Odzala.
Based on histological examination, electrocytes are known to be type NPp.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by TiffanyMichelle pretty I love the crinkling embellishment on this slip. It gives it an antiqued feel. The cut is very flattering. It its true to size. Really beautiful and versatile piece. Layer, or wear alone. 12.23.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Jessae Amazing I adore this slip, everything about it. The embroidery, the fabic, the lace, the cut, it's just perfect. I've ordered two so far, might get more colors, I've never seen anything like it. So perfect for layering, under other dresses or cardigans or tunics. 12.14.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cari Gorgeous! I bought this in Neon Red, which does have an orange tint to it, but I love it nonetheless! FP sent me a size Small in an XS bag and I ordered an XS. XS is my normal size so this is obviously loose but I think even the XS would have been loose. I really wanted to wear this and didn't want to wait for the exchange process so I kept the size small since I'm going to be wearing it under items anyway. I love this peeking out from under other tops. The straps are adjustable so this can be as low or high cut around the bustline as you want it to be! 12.14.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by jrpersia I need another one This is another great layer piece from Free People. I ordered the champaign colored dress and the color was as expected and very romantic fit. As with many Free People items it is rather sheer, but as with many of those items they are perfect for layering. It is defnitely a solid clothing staple. 12.14.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by FPKaraK So gorgeous..I got 2 colors..maybe 3! Not much to say that the other reviewers didn't already mention. The uneven hem and lace trim is amazing. This piece is so versatile you can do anything with it. A cute nightie, a great layering piece, a cute slip dress under a sweater or cardi. It fits true to size and is long enough to wear as a dress even if you are on the taller side esp since it has adjustable straps! The only thing I felt others should be aware of is that the "Watermelon" is not a pale pink as shown it is more of a coral darker pink..which I love! 12.13.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by tink champaign This slip is amazing. It's featured in the December catalog, and it is amazing. I would suggest ordering your usual size. I got the XS (I am 5'2 110, 32B). I tried on the purple in the store but I was not feeling it, it is still a beautiful color, but not for me. I bought the champaign, which I have been eyeing for quite a while. In person, it is more blush than pictured, but it is still beautiful. I could see myself wearing this for any season! 12.13.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by laceydaisy feel so pretty in this slip i too like the other reviewers love this slip. I bought the watermelon color which is a vibrant pink but not garish in the least. I bought it to wear under the Crochet holiday dress and it does, I think, really work well. I thought it ran a touch small as I am usually a small in FP but this was snug through the hips and seat for me. I also wanted the extra length so it could peek out from under the dress. have my eye on the black. 12.10.2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Hollan36 Gorgeous So this is my first slip purchase and I was a bit nervous about it not fitting or being made of cheap material or something, but I have to say that this slip is absolutely beautiful and it looks and feels very well made. I got the champagne in a large and it fits me perfectly. I'm 5'8, 36-30-39. It is the perfect length for me...it comes to mid thigh. It is pretty see-through, but I'm already envisioning wearing it with the Lacey Layering Skort underneath...or something similar...and a pretty cardigan. I really love this slip. I think its one of the best pieces I've ever bought and I can see myself mixing it with a lot of different outfits. 12.7.2010

Ensemble Hand-Clapping Experiments under the Influence of Delay and Various Acoustic Environments
(Subscribe to this discussion)
With ensembles composed of musicians connected over large distances via the Internet, the issue of sound delay becomes very important. This study explores the effect of delay on tempo change, imprecision, leader–follower strategy, and quality. Eleven pairs of musically experienced subjects clapped a simple complementary rhythmic pattern together for about 15 seconds while the delay was varied from 6 to 68 ms. Acceptable delay thresholds were empirically determined.

Great study. I was thinking about this subject a few years ago in regards to winter drumline percussion competitions. These competitions (such as the WGI series) take place in reverberant gymnasiums that also have echo. The ensembles consist of highly rehearsed musicians playing complex rhythms on instruments that produce a highly impulsive response. If there are 8 snare drummers playing side by side, the reverberance may have a smaller influence how clean (precision) they play together. But if they are trying to play in unison with the mallet percussionists 30 feet in front of them, reverberance probably plays a larger role. The winner of the competition is the group that has the highest judged precision. As the paper illustrated, judgement goes down as the delay (echo) is increased. But to what degree are the musicians and judges able to adjust to the environment? How long does might the adjustment take? Would the drumlines have an advantage if they were able to warm up in a reverberant environment vs outdoors in a reflection free environment? Maybe these could be investigated in the future.

Merlin Entertainments promotes Nicky Marsh to divisional role
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 08:00AM
Merlin Entertainments has appointed Nicky Marsh as the marketing director of its "midway" division to lead its short-stay attractions, including waxworks Madame Tussauds.
Marsh, who takes up the newly created role this month, has been promoted from her position of global marketing director for Madame Tussauds. Her replacement on the waxwork brand is currently being sought.
Marsh will oversee the brand positioning and global marketing for Merlin Entertainment's "midway brands".
These are primarily indoor attractions that consumers will spend between two and three hours visiting, and include Madame Tussauds, the London Eye and the Blackpool Eye, Sea Life aquariums, Legoland Discovery Centres and the London Dungeon.
The global marketing directors for each of these brands will now report directly to Marsh, who in turn will report to Glenn Earlam, the managing director of Merlin Entertainment's midway division.
Earlam said: "This is a very important role given our dynamic growth and the need to both ensure consistent brand propositions worldwide, while constantly looking to increase 'the magic' we provide."
The midway division sits alongside Merlin Entertainment's two other operating groups – Legoland parks and resort theme parks. The latter includes Alton Towers, Chessington World of Adventures and Thorpe Park brands.
The midway segment is the company's highest growth area, with six to seven attractions within the division opening globally each year.Follow @loullamae_es

AUSTIN, Texas — Two recent graduates of The University of Texas at Austin School of Law and one current student have been selected by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) in Arusha, Tanzania, to serve as interns in the Office of the Prosecutor this fall. Robert Benedict (Ben) Fleming, '05, Benjamin (Benjie) W. Putnam, '04, and Erin E. Ruble, '03, will be the seventh, eighth, and ninth UT Law students and recent alumni to be accepted to participate in the ICTR internship program. The Law School has been sending students and graduates to the Tribunal since 2000, but this fall will mark the first time it has sent three at one time.
The International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda was established in 1994 by the United Nations Security Council to investigate and prosecute participants in the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. Students work in the Office of the Prosecutor, conducting a range of investigative work, factual development, and legal research on both procedural and substantive international criminal law issues.
"These internships provide UT Law students and recent graduates with unique opportunities to learn and serve in the area of human rights and international criminal law, as well as expose them to parts of the world they would otherwise be unlikely to see. It is a great tribute to Ben, Benjie, and Erin, but also to the work of former UT interns and to the Law School that the Tribunal has selected three applicants from UT for the coming fall," said Professor Karen Engle, director of the newly founded Human Rights Initiative at the Law School.
The International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda Internships last for three to six months. The internships are open to qualified second and third year students as well as recent graduates with strong backgrounds in international and/or criminal law. Participants receive either academic credit or a living stipend, as well as airfare. Travel expenses and stipends are made possible by a grant from the Effie and Wofford Cain Foundation.
The Law School has sponsored six interns at the ICTR's Office of the Prosecutor in recent years: James Sanford (summer of 2004), Hope Williams (2003), Yonit Sharaby (2003), Douglas Cox (2002), James Bischoff (2002), and Roberta Ritvo (2000).
"By the unprecedented acceptance of three of us at the ICTR this fall, UT Law has demonstrated a truly impressive commitment to the work of the tribunal, to international law, and most importantly, to its students," said Ben Fleming. "Benji, Erin, and I have a lot to be grateful for, and look forward to being strong ambassadors for the school in this sobering, but worthwhile work."
Fleming will begin his third year of law school this fall and graduate in May 2005. He received his B.A. in English from The University of Texas with honors in 2002. He spent the summer after his first year as a UT Law Democracy Fellow doing environmental protection work in the Attorney General's office in Brazil. During the 2003-2004 school year, Fleming worked on the Texas International Law Journal. He is currently an intern with The Center for Justice and International Law in Washington, D.C., researching and writing about recent events in Haiti as well as paramilitary groups in Colombia.
"One of the reasons we were drawn to UT was its excellent reputation in the field of international law. Facilitating (and funding) these internships reaffirms the law school's commitment to strength in this area," said Benjie Putnam and Erin Ruble, who are married to each other. "This will be an unparalleled opportunity to watch international law in the making, and to participate in tremendously important work. We are honored to have been chosen."
Putnam graduated from the Law School in May 2004 as the Clerk of the Chancellors Society. He received his B.A. in Politics from Pomona College in 1998. While in law school, Putnam was an articles editor of the Texas Law Review, received an award for outstanding international law note, and was chosen to compete in the Willem C. Vis international moot arbitration competition. Putnam worked as a legal intern and legislative fellow with the ACLU of Texas from 2000-2003. In summer 2003, he worked as a summer associate for Wilmer, Cutler & Pickering in Washington, D.C.
Ruble graduated from the Law School in May 2003 in the top 10 percent of her class. She received her B.A. in English from Swarthmore College in 1998. While in law school, Erin was an associate editor of the Texas Law Review and was also selected for the Willem C. Vis arbitration team. In 2002-2003, she was a law clerk with Simon F. Azar-Farr and Associates, working on immigration law cases. In the summer of 2002, she gained experience in international litigation as a summer associate for Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton in New York. The following summer, she worked as a free speech intern with the national office of the ACLU in Washington, D.C. She has spent the past year clerking for The Honorable William Wayne Justice, Senior Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
"The Rwanda Tribunal internships are only one example of the wealth of exciting international internship possibilities that UT offers to its students," notes Professor Sarah Cleveland, one of the faculty members overseeing the internship programs. UT Law currently runs six formal international internship programs, including internships with the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY), the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the Democracy Fellows program, the European Court of Justice, and an independent international internship program. A total of 20 students and recent graduates are participating in international internships this year.

About the artist
After releasing the Gypsyhook EP in 2009, Moore was scheduled to record his debut studio album, Bells, with producer Noah Shain. However, he ceased production of the album and began performing under the name Skrillex, distributing the My Name Is Skrillex EP for free download on his official MySpace page. Subsequently, he released the Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites EP in late–2010 and More Monsters and Sprites EP in mid–2011, both of which have since become moderate commercial successes.
