Frozen shoulder is when the shoulder is painful and loses motion because of inflammation.
Adhesive capsulitis
The capsule of the shoulder joint has ligaments that hold the shoulder bones to each other. When the capsule becomes inflamed, the shoulder bones are unable to move freely in the joint.
Most of the time there is no cause for frozen shoulder. Risk factors include:
The main symptoms are:
Frozen shoulder without any known cause starts with pain. This pain prevents you from moving your arm. Lack of movement leads to stiffness and then even less motion. Over time, you become unable to do movements such as reaching over your head or behind you.
The health care provider will ask about your symptoms and an examine your shoulder. A diagnosis is often made when you are not able to rotate your shoulder.
You may have x-rays of the shoulder. This is to make sure there is no other problem, such as arthritis. Sometimes an MRI exam shows inflammation. But imaging tests do not show specific signs to diagnose frozen shoulder.
Pain is treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) and steroid injections. Steroid injections plus physical therapy can improve your motion.
It can take a few weeks to see progress. It may take as long as 6 - 9 months for complete recovery. Physical therapy is intense and needs to be done every day.
Left untreated, the condition often gets better by itself within 2 years with little loss of motion.
Risk factors for frozen shoulder, such as diabetes or thyroid problems, should also be treated.
Surgery is recommended if nonsurgical treatment is not effective. This procedure (shoulder arthroscopy) is done under anesthesia. During surgery the scar tissue is released by bringing the shoulder through a full range of motion. Arthroscopic surgery can also be used to cut the tight ligaments and remove the scar tissue from the shoulder. After surgery, you may receive pain blocks so you can participate in physical therapy.
Treatment with physical therapy and NSAIDs will usually restore motion and function of the shoulder within a year. Even untreated, the shoulder can get better by itself in 24 months.
After surgery restores motion, you must continue physical therapy for several weeks or months to prevent the frozen shoulder from returning. Treatment may fail if you cannot keep up with physical therapy.
If you have shoulder pain and stiffness and think you have a frozen shoulder, contact your health care provider for referral and treatment.
The best way to prevent frozen shoulder is to contact your health care provider if you develop shoulder pain that limits your range of motion for an extended period. Early treatment and helps prevent stiffness.
People who have diabetes will be less likely to get frozen shoulder if they keep their condition under control.

So You Want to Develop Engine Oil Engine Tests
Instructor: Don Smolenski, Evonik
Where: STLE University, live webinar event broadcast to your computer
When: Wednesday, March 26, 2014 at 12-1:00 p.m., with optional Q&A from 1-1:30 p.m. Central Time
Cost: $39 for members, $59 for non-members
Of all of the tests that engine oils must pass to meet API, ILSAC, ACEA or other specifications, engine tests are the most expensive and probably the most important. If developed properly, their relevance to real word driving is generally better than a bench test. There is much that goes into the process, however, including engine selection, test stand configuration, critical hardware and test parameter determination, etc. Just getting an engine on a test stand to think it's running in a vehicle, for instance, is no small feat, much less getting it to produce results that correlate well with the field. It must discriminate reliably between oils that are "good", "borderline" or "bad" in the field – and with good reproducibility. Once this is done, religious monitoring and maintenance is required to keep the test on track. This webinar will provide an overview of engine oil engine test development, with some anecdotes of real experiences included.
Presenter Biography
Don Smolenski has a BS in Chemistry from the University of Michigan-Dearborn and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from Wayne State University. He is currently the OEM Liaison Manager – North America for Evonik Oil Additives, after retiring after 33 years with General Motors.

USDA Names National Peanut Board Members and Alternates
Release No.: 133-13
Pam Stanziani, (202) 720-8998
WASHINGTON, August 7, 2013 Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack appointed three members and three alternates to serve on the National Peanut Board (Board).
"I am pleased that these individuals have agreed to provide their time and expertise," said Vilsack. I am confident that domestic peanut producers will be well served by them.
Board appointees serve a three-year term beginning January 1, 2014, and ending on December 31, 2016, with the exception of the South Carolina member and alternate member positions, which begin immediately and end on December 31, 2015. New members include Gayle White, Frederick, Ok; Edward M. Rast, Jr., Cameron, SC; and Wayne Baker, Portales, NM. Alternate members include Les Crall, Weatherford, Ok; Kenneth Cox, Portales, NM; and Corrin F. Bud Bowers, Jr., Estill, SC.
USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service provides oversight of the National Peanut Board in accordance with the Commodity Promotion Research, and Information Act of 1996 and the Peanut Promotion, Research, and Information Order. Under the order, domestic producers pay an assessment at the rate of 1 percent of the total value of all farmers stock peanuts sold. The program is administered by industry Board members selected by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture.
Research and promotion programs help to expand, maintain and develop markets for individual commodities in the United States and abroad. They allow commodity groups to conduct promotion, market and production research, and new product development for the benefit of their industries.

Brazilian made iPads to ship in December, production already started
According to a report by Brazilian technology website UOL, the Brazilian Minister of Science and Technology, Aolizio Mercadante, has confirmed that the new Foxconn factory in Jundiai is up and running. The iPad 2 production line is in operation and they will begin shipping this December.
At first many doubted, but it will be the first time that the company will produce iPads outside Chinese territory. We are taking a big step for digital inclusion in the country," he said. Mercadante also said that the federal government will announce in the coming days to invest in a big factory of games in the Manaus Free Zone.
Originally the factory was scheduled to start production in late August / early September so it appears that the time frame was spot on. Foxconn has apparently sent over 175 engineers from China to assist with the smooth running of the iPad 2 production process.

Brazilian made iPads to ship in December, production already started
Hard to believe...the press in Brazil shows the real facts. It is a political thing. The production didnt start yet, and foxxcon didnt get license to start the production. Still waiting...http://veja.abril.com.br/noticia/economia/foxconn-ainda-nao-tem-licenca-...
How about Apple contracting with a US manufacturer? They certainly have high enough margins on their devices to eat the higher cost...
Apple could be making iPads in the US and I bet people would be glad to pay a little more for the "made in the USA" tag.
Anyway, is this factory going to start shipping iPad2s three or four months before Apple releases iPad3? Does this makes sense?
Anyway, Mercadante is famous for being economical with the truth.
I am Brazilian and I hope it means a reduction in price ... the price of iphone 2 here should be one of the most expensive in the world .. wifi 16gb version costs the equivalent of $ 964.00:http://store.apple.com/br/browse/home/shop_ipad/family/ipad
the long term trade relationship between the united states and China is increasingly unclear, and there is a possibility - however remote - of increasing tariffs on trade with China in order to create government revenue. smart for Foxconn too, for the same reason.
what isn't a remote possibility is that as oil prices steadily increase, shipping costs from China will likewise increase. need to do some research on this but i'm guessing shipping from Brazil to North america and Western Europe has the potential to be significantly less expensive than shipping from China.

As the snowbirds fly back north, that must mean it's time for the youngsters to invade our piece of paradise — otherwise known as spring break.
With the onslaught of co-eds on area beaches, some locals leave town or lock themselves indoors. Others brave the crowded stores, restaurants, and roads.
Locals watch the crowds come and go year after year, so we at The Sun asked the wise parent figures among us the following question: "With the largest week of spring break coming up, what is your advice to spring breakers in South Walton?"
As a teacher at
30A resident Annie Lockamy has also witnessed some absent mindedness in her encounters with visitors. "My advice is for them to PLEASE remember that 30A is road, which cars actually are traveling on, so don't just cross it without looking!" she said.
Along those same lines, Seagrove's Barbara Olschner advises: "Enjoy, but remember, the laws of physics are not suspended while on vacation. Exercise the same care for safety and well being you would in crossing the street at home."
Rosemary Beach artist Allison Wickey just wants to keep her beautiful town and beaches clean — "exactly how you found them ... thank you!"
As does
Realtor Bobby Johnson advises spring breakers to remember the three Rs, "Relax, respect, and remember some of us live here."
As does Seagrove's Barbara Rowan: "I would hope they can respect those of use that live here full time. Yes, we are fortunate to be able to do so. But, we still work, have places to go by a certain time and not all of us like to stay up until 2 a.m. listening to loud music … at least I don't."
Seagrove's Bob Dobes says, "My advice is: 1) Spring breakers rarely listen to advice. 2) When events get out of hand, neighbors can take matters into their own hands and call the sheriff's office as a matter of due diligence. If that fails and real property is involved, seek the owner of the property (via rental agency or otherwise tax records). Report the potential risk of property damage, plus nuisance, and express good neighborly concern. Then give them (the owners) the sheriff's number. 3) Also, if the rental agency does not assist with a solution or an eviction, encourage the owner to find another agency that will protect their property."
As a business owner,
Fans of the Walton Sun's Facebook page also had some advice for spring breakers
Dora R Hurst: Have fun... enjoy and remember: If you drink, do it in moderation! No drugs please! You can have fun without being out of your head!
Florida Department of Juvenile Justice: Spring breakers should keep in mind that the decisions they make now can affect them the rest of their lives. There are consequences to breaking the law and those consequences can hinder future education, scholarship and employment opportunities, not mention your pocketbook.
Abrakadoodle Art Education and Parties: Bring a coat!
Laurie Aldieri Daher: What is the point? They will not heed any advice, unless you are telling them where the best deal is on alcohol.
Rochelle Penik: go home
Nick Nelson: Telling spring breaks to go home? Yeah that'll help our local business...
Kelly Calvert Roe: slow down, hang up and drive.
Kurt Rieper: Do NOT talk to cops!
Sand Dollar HR: Have fun! Enjoy our beautiful beaches and take care of them! Make Memories with good friends and make new friends! Also, remember a photograph lasts forever good or bad!
Stephen Brown: Stay off the balconies it you have been drinking, or keep your friends off the balconies .

McFARLANE STORE CELEBRATES ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY, DEC. 6
Spawn Creator Todd McFarlane to Sign Autographs from 11am-3pm
Thursday, November 20, 2008
The McFarlane store is celebrating its first birthday, and we're throwing a party!
On Dec. 6, from 11am-3pm, Spawn creator and McFarlane Toys CEO, Todd McFarlane, will be signing autographs and visiting with fans at the McFarlane store located within the Westgate City Center adjacent to Jobing.com Arena in Glendale, Ariz.
The big day will also include prizes and special anniversary sale prices on select action figures. Commemorative "VIP Passes" will be given to the first 300 people in line, so be sure and arrive early. 98 KUPD radio will be remote broadcasting at the event from 11am-1pm.
"It's a good feeling to have been in at the beginning of Westgate, and to see how much it's grown," says McFarlane. "A year later, it's tremendously vibrant, and it's still only halfway to completion. We look forward to providing high quality at a low price to consumers in the area for years to come."
The McFarlane store is stocked with plenty of choices for everyone on your gift list, including Halo, Guitar Hero, Call of Duty and officially licensed pro sports action figures.
>> McFARLANE AT WESTGATE
SPAWN ISSUE 185 SELLS OUT! REPRINT AVAILABLE AT McFARLANE EVENT
The historic Spawn issue 185 comic book did not last long on store shelves. The new creative team and bold new direction of the story made this THE issue to have. The result: an immediate distribution-level sell-out. In response to public demand, an additional run of 5,000 copies of this historic issue will be printed. The reprint will feature an exclusive variant cover in an alternate color palate, penciled, inked and colored by Spawn creator, Todd McFarlane. Both the reprint and issue 186 are expected to be at the Westgate store for the autograph signing on Dec. 6.
For more information about the event call (623) 670-5601.

New in Gmail: Select All Messages
When you select all the messages from the inbox or from another view (search, all mail, sent mail), Gmail gives you the option to select all the messages from that view, not only the first 50 or 100 that are displayed. If you want to delete all the emails that contain "Peter", you can search for "Peter", select all and click on the link "Select all conversations that match this search". This is extremely useful, especially if you have many emails. Until now you had to select the messages from each page and repeat the same action, which was time consuming.
Unlike desktop applications or Yahoo Mail Beta, Gmail doesn't show all the emails from a view. Its design is similar to Google Search: you can view at most 100 messages at a time. This is a big issue when you try to apply a new label to all the messages that match a criteria, or when you try to archive all the inbox emails from a person.
Like the other new features, the new link will be available to everybody in the days to come. An improvement to this feature might be to let the users select read / unread messages from all the pages of a view.
Other new features in Gmail:
Delete all spam

That sonofabitch had 10,000 red flags, but the FBI didn't bother putting him on a list.
Yet kids with NRA shirts are getting busted..
Makes you wonder where the priorities are.
yea it is rather weird.
a alien muzlium can go around in the USA going DEATH TO THE USA, ZIONIST PIGS!, start making bombs for 10 years--and nobody even looks into it!
sort of like the trade towers attacks.
all kinds of red-flags everywhere in every bodys in box and no one even bothered to look.
i suppose the government is too busy giving away the treasury to foreign muzlums and trying to take away the citizens rights to be bothered by a few "terrorist"?

I'm looking for wifi connection manager software. Please recommend any that you know of. There was one I saw on bits du jour a long time ago, and I can't find it anymore. Can anyone remember?
So, I want an alternative to the network manager that comes either with Windows itself, or the intel one that can also be used. They both have their pors/cons, but I don't really like either of them. I want more control, more options, nicer interface.
The only one I've found (and it's free) is this one:
Avanquest Connection Manager
But I'm hoping somebody remembers the one on BDJ, that one looked nice.

Born in 1974 in Florence, Italy, Nicolas was raised in the Terzani family's creative culture. His style is emblematic of the Terzani brand, which is known for combining artisan techniques and luxurious materials with experimental, cutting edge manufacturing processes.

His unique, original, meticulously handcrafted designs are constantly evolving.
Terzani began as a creative design and production laboratory for lighting objects, with roots in the noble craft traditions of wrought iron, carved wood, and Murano glass.
In 1985, Sergio Terzani met Jean-Francois Crochet, an experienced Parisian designer. Together, they updated the craft culture, presenting it from a contemporary design angle.
The end result has been "Luce Pensata": lamps and objects as lighting sculptures, no longer accessories or cold technical supports, but the animated, vital protagonists of living areas, with a completely original and identifiable character.

The ultimate luxury hotel room now comes with 24-carat gold iPads
The Burj Al Arab in Dubai is one of the most luxurious hotels in the world. Staying there requires a healthy bank balance, but the luxury speaks for itself. Recently, the hotel installed Macs in each room at the all-suite hotel, in an effort to offer a "thoroughly modern guest experience." Their latest trick; 24-carat gold iPads in every room.
The iPads come emblazoned with the hotel logo on the rear, and are offered to guests upon checkin as a 'virtual concierge.' They also offer up information on the hotel services, restaurant menus and the spa facilities. But, you don't have to leave Dubai without your very own gold iPad, oh no.
Produced by Gold & Co of London, if you so desire you can purchase your very own 24-carat gold iPad from the hotel boutique. Just make sure you don't leave it on the plane.
It's great to see the iPad continue to be adopted in such ways, though the gold isn't likely for everyone. Money aside, would you like to get your hands on a 24-carat gold iPad?

The ultimate luxury hotel room now comes with 24-carat gold iPads
Yuuuckk.. A 24-cr gold iPad.. eekks..
Is this really necessary? How much more will guests enjoy their stay because of this? Hopefully, one day, history will look back at this in absolute dismay so the same superficial nonsense comes to an end.
BTW, 24-carat gold is pure and thus extremely malleable. This would make it very impractical to plate something that is handled like an iPad.

I will......and I wanted to add that what freed me from that was knowing that we were lowered into what had us in bondage because we had to have something to overcome. It says "not willingly"; that means it was not of ourself, the "make-up" of us was itself already predetermined, which means the outcome of our "shortcomings" was also predetermined, BUT so was the grace needed to overcome them, ie. He subjected us with hope. And it's not, "the devil made me do it" excuse, it's HE lowered us so we could learn and learn to love Him with the same unconditional love He first loved us with. In our finite understanding, we think we only have to love others unconditionally, but we also have to love Him unconditionally, because as David said, "Though He slay me, yet will I love Him." And as Job found out, we must accept whatever He throws at us, understanding that He knows what is best, even when it appears to be "bad". And it's a hard lesson to learn. My
I so see things in a similar fashion as you, Nathan and I see something, through a glass darkly, but I see something that you probably do too but I'd like your input on it. I don't stop at seeing the sheep and goats as representing something within me, I don't stop at all things Scriptural representing aspects of who I and all humans are. I see Jesus as representing the Holy spiritual aspect of my essence. Do you see this?2 big questions are doing somthing in me. What is God? What is Jesus?cp
Matt. 25:46: Everlasting punishment--life eternal. The two adjectives represent the same Greek word (aionion)
ETERNITY: The Bible hardly speaks of eternity in the philosophical sense of infinite duration without beginning or end. The Hebrew word
That the adjective is applied to some things which are "endless" does not, of course, for one moment prove that the word itself meant "endless," and to introduce this rendering into many passages would be utterly impossible and absurd.
There is no word either in the O.T. Hebrew or in the N.T. Greek to express the abstract idea of eternity.
Time: The O.T. and the N.T. are not acquainted with the conception of eternity as timelessness. The O.T. has not developed a special term for "eternity." The word
On Ecclesiastes 1:4. The preacher, in contending with the universalist, or restorationist, would commit an error, and, it may be, suffer a failure in his argument, should he lay the whole stress of it on the etymological or historical significance of the words,
I must be so candid as to acknowledge that the use of these terms, "forever," "eternal," "everlasting," shows that they who understand these words in a limited sense when applied to punishment put no forced interpretation upon them.
Olam (aeon) seems to be used much more for an indefinite than for an infinite time.
Let me say to Bible students that we must be very careful how we use the word "eternity." We have fallen into great error in our constant usage of that word. There is no word in the whole Book of God corresponding with our "eternal," which as commonly used among us, means absolutely without end.
Under the instruction of those great teachers, many other theologians believed in universal salvation; and indeed the whole Eastern Church until after 500 A.D. was inclined to it. Doederlein says that "In proportion as any man was eminent in learning in Christian antiquity, the more did he cherish and defend the hope of the termination of future torments." Many more church historians could be quoted with similar observations.
The Rabbi teach no eternity of hell torments; even the greatest sinners were punished for generations.
It is often pointed out that "eternal"
I fail to find, as is used by the Greek Fathers, any instance in which the idea of time duration is unlimited.
It is possible that "aeonian" may denote merely indefinite duration without the connotation of never ending.
(Page 63) Since, as we have seen, the noun
Though the fire is everlasting, not all that enters it is everlasting . . . . "The word everlasting signifies only to the end of its period.
All the way through, it is never feasible to understand
(Page 59) The adjective
(Page 52) What we have to learn is that the Bible does not speak of eternity. It is not written to tell us of eternity. Such a consideration is entirely outside the scope of revelation.(Page 279) Eternity is not a Biblical theme.
Eternal: Greek: "aeonion," i.e., "of the ages." Etymologically this adjective, like others similarly formed, does not signify "during," but "belonging to" the aeons or ages.
First, The different classes of individuals referred to in the text, are acquitted and condemned on account of their Works, and therefore the subject cannot refer to the immortal world; for heaven is not to be attained by good works! Eternal life is the pure, free and unpurchased gift of God, and is not of works of righteousness that we have done, lest any man should boast!The second important consideration to which we invite the reader's attention, is, that the original word kolasis, supposed to teach the doctrine of endless punishment, was frequently applied, as lexicographers inform us, to the pruning of trees. In this sense, its application here is full of significance. It shows at once the important object of punishment, viz.: to improve and benefit man. For what purpose are trees pruned? Not to injure them, certainly; but to improve them. Such being clearly the object of punishment, under the government of an all-wise and benevolent God, hence this term kolasis was appropriately employed in the text.Lexicographers define kolasis thus: "Punishment, chastisement, correction, the pruning of trees." This "everlasting punishment" (aionios kolasis) is designed for some wise and benevolent purpose, not absolutely to injure, but ultimately to benefit and improve those chastened.Again: The word rendered everlasting (aionios) is not the same word as is translated endless, and therefore the doctrine of endless punishment is not taught in the passage, under consideration. The word endless, from akatalutos, occurs but once in the Bible, Heb. 7:16. "After the power of an endless life."
My understanding is that Jews of the Old Testament believed that the Messiah would come and establish an eternal Kingdom on earth.......Daniel wrote of some being resurrected to "everlasting life" and others to "everlasting contempt" (12:2). Regardless of what the underlying words are in the original language, it's a real stretch to say the immediate audience would envision a limited age.
In a similar way, Jesus taught that there was a limited amount of time to qualify for entrance into the Kingdom which He would return to establish. Neither the Old Testament nor the Gospels suggest that if you are disqualified for the Kingdom, you will be reconsidered at a later date.

Through study and numerous experiential activities she has embodied the work that she champions deep into her soul. Michelle reflects that many of the courses in her PhD program have impacted her on a profoundly personal level. During courses such as the "Spirituality and Health" course she chose to use the opportunity to deepen her relationship with her husband. She created a spiritual ritual that has strengthened their personal relationship, an unexpected gift from her graduate education.

The 26-year-old joined the Hammers in January last year, helping them to a top-flight return by scoring the decisive goal in a 2-1 play-off final win over Blackpool.
Vaz Te has been linked with an Upton Park exit this summer, but Allardyce denied that the newly-promoted Welsh side have been in touch regarding a move.
He said: "There's no official bid from Cardiff for Ricardo Vaz Te. It always happens at this time of year - it's just agents getting busy."
The Hammers broke their transfer record earlier this summer, spending £15million on Andy Carroll, but when asked whether there would be any further arrivals, Allardyce was quick to dismiss the idea.
"Not unless the chairman has found some money he hasn't told me about," he said.
"I've got no more money left, so the squad I've got is the squad I've got."

Flit Lit in the Sweet Sunny South
Tom Rankin reviews Chuck Thompson's new book Better off Without 'Em: A Northern Manifesto for Southern Secession (New York: Simon and Schuster, 2012).
When I saw a note about Chuck Thompson's new book, Better Off Without 'Em: A Northern Manisfesto for Southern Secession, I had to take a look. From the title alone I thought it might be the proverbial train wreck of colliding stereotypes, but like most passersby of an accident I had to stare at least a little. A writer of "travel memoirs," Thompson seems to have arrived in the South with much of his opinion fixed, many of his storylines nearly set in stone. I've been amused in recent years with the increasingly terse genre categories of writing: Chick Lit, Grunge Lit, or speaking of the American South, Grit Lit. I have to admit deep suspicion of easy taxonomy. But after reading Thompson, I'd like to offer a new genre: Flit Lit.
Flit Lit is the work of a growing tradition of writers who descend into a locale or region or perhaps even another person's life, and become, rather miraculously and quickly, experts. And then record their revelations and deep understandings in writing, for us, their wide audience.
"Flitting" is not the same as traveling. And it's certainly not the same as moving into new spaces and geographies with a keen eye and ear for reflection and understanding. The American South was chronicled early, and at times with profound resonance, by a range of travelers and visitors. William Bartram and William Byrd left indelible and artful accounts in the 1700s. What would we be without James Audubon's nineteenth-century visual and literary records of where he went, what he experienced, and what he saw. Or what about Frederick Law Olmsted's A Journey in the Seaboard Slave States? I wouldn't consider any of their work a result of flitting. But Thompson, with his bar tab calculations and his smug questions fired at southerners across an imagined territory, recounts his journey, twelve states wide and a quarter-mile deep. That, to be sure, deserves a special place on any bookstore's Flit Lit shelf.
In the book's Epilogue, Thompson writes about attending Professor James Cobb's "Understanding Southern Culture" class at the University of Georgia. After class he treats three professors and three students to adult libation in hopes of learning more about his set plot of secession. "Although the night hadn't produced the secession quorum I'd be angling for," he muses, "in an unexpected way it did provide a glimpse into how the future of the South might play out, with or without separation." He writes on, summarizing his lessons from the three Georgia students, his characteristic patronizing tone in high form: "Shots shooted, bar tabs settled, bro hugs administered, I said good-bye to my new college buds—three intelligent, thoughtful, ambitious guys on the campus of a major university that pulls 60 percent of its student population from metro Atlanta, the most important city in the South. Three likely leaders of tomorrow."
But I like the honesty of his approach. ("Mr. Thompson decided to use wishful thinking as his guide," wrote Janet Maslin in the New York Times.) Thompson refers to his task as that of a "fledgling ethnographer," and his cutesy, near-humorous conclusions remind me of a plethora of reality television shows. I just wish for much more reality and a lot less TV. "How can I miss you when you won't go away?" sings native Arkansan Dan Hicks in his tongue-in-cheek classic. As someone continually and deeply interested in individual stories, personal explorations of postage stamps of community soil, I ask Thompson, "How can you understand the South if you won't stop and stay?"
The real answer, perhaps, is just that I'm just not made for Thompson's approach or book—flit's not my lit.

http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news...ss-conference/What do you think he is going to announce? And if it is a rematch, why is he, rather than the UFC orquestrating it?
The news was broken by the French language Montreal Journal.
The mixed martial arts fighter Georges St-Pierre is expected to reveal his intentions regarding his future on Friday.
The 32-year-old will meet with the media in Quebec at a press conference, his agent told TVA Sports, and will announce what is coming for him in the coming months.
Retirement? Resume training in a not so distant future? The options are many.
On November 16, after his controversial win face Johny Hendricks, St-Pierre said he was hanging up his gloves "at least for a moment."
Since then, several rumors have circulated about Quebeces, but he said that everything was fine. He took a vacation and has recently taught BJJ at Tristar Gym.

I can do that. The triangles may be wonky, but then I'll call it a wonky bow-tie block.
It's so much fun being a noob quilter.

Ruth Vanita
Office: Liberal Arts Room 146 A
Phone: (406) 243-4894
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Office Hours:
Ph.D. Delhi University, India
Professional Experience:
Founder co-editor of Manushi, India's first nationwide feminist magazine, 1978-91
Lecturer in English, Miranda House College for Women, and Reader, Department of English, Delhi University, 1976-1997.
Other Publications:
On Gender, Sex and the City:
This book explores the urban, cosmopolitan sensibilities of Urdu poetry written in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in Lucknow, which was the center of a flourishing Indo-Islamic culture. Ruth Vanita analyzes Rekhti, a type of Urdu poetry distinguished by a female speaker and a focus on women's lives, and shows how it became a catalyst for the transformation of the love poem.
"The book belongs to my favorite genre, where the translations, excellent as they are, push the reader toward tasting the 'original.'' - Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, series editor (with Hosam Aboul-Ela) of Theory in the WorldOn Love's Rite:
This absorbing new book…offers a marvelously global perspective characterized by profound historical understanding, impeccable scholarship, and a rare and delightful precision of feeling.
- Terry Castle, Prof, Stanford University
On Gandhi's Tiger:
Ruth Vanita's scholarship is staggering. She scours the intellectual landscape, from the Upanishads to writers of our times, from the tale of Oedipus to that of Ashtavakra, from Sappho the tale of lesbian love in the Bengal version of the Padma Purana. …deftly demonstrating how the celebration of diversity has roots in ancient India.
- Kaushik Basu, Prof, Cornell University
On Sappho and the Virgin Mary:
The story of Mary is that she conceived her son immaculately, an autonomous creation without the intervention of a human male. This Marian ideal of feminine independence, suggests Ruth Vanita in her brilliant book, is one basis for the vast number of independent, unmarried female characters in British fiction. The poetry of Sappho, the direct antecedent of the confessional Romantic lyric, is the other. ... This well-researched, erudite survey shows how present lesbian dynamics have been throughout English literary history.
Ruth Vanita's Sappho & the Virgin Mary is an eloquent refutation of the conventional theoretical association of lesbianism with cultural invisibility. ...Vanita demonstrates that love between women has long constituted an enabling, enriching and ubiquitous component of the literary imagination for female and male authors alike. ... Intrepid, sophisticated, and worldly."
- Corinne Blackmer
On Same-Sex Love in India:
This path-breaking volume presents the English-reading public with an imposing array of texts relating to an important but little-studied aspect of Indian life and literature.
- Sumit Guha, Professor, Brown University
This enchanting collection is a tribute to an ancient civilization which has always cherished love that defies conventional ideas of sanity and normality.
- Ashis Nandy
An encyclopedic collection … Vanita and Kidwai's essays are works of outstanding scholarship.
- Lillian Faderman
Through research and interpretation of ancient, medieval and modern literary texts, traditions and popular culture, she brings to light texts and traditions that construct the picture of a highly exploratory and non-judgmental sexual culture which is South Asia. One that both accepted and celebrated same sex love and intimate friendships.
