Is this procedure common and or expensive? What is the average cost? How long after can you expect to go back to work? Any reasons why one would be denied? Can they make it so you have a flush or almost no nipple at all? Could it be as little as possible especially in the outward diretion?

Nipple reduction for men
A very timely question. I just fininshed removing stitches on a young man who had "puffy" areolas and overly prominent nipples. He was otherwise happy with his chest (me too!). I perfomed a procedure where I tightened up his areolas and reduced his nipple length. He wanted his nipples almost flush and I accomplished that. He's very happy with his early result and I think his long term result will be excellent.
I was able to do his procedure under local anesthesia. He drove himself home and was able to return to work after one day of recuperation.

Male nipple reduction reduces self-consciousness
Male nipple reduction is performed under local anesthesia. Laughing gas may also be used, if desired, at no additional charge. Chevron-shaped (think of the Chevron logo) removal of excess tissue is performed, and the incisions are closed with absorbable sutures. I generally recommend leaving some residual nipple projection, though the nipples can be reduced considerably. The scars are frequently imperceptible. Surgical cost is about $1200 for both nipples.

Nipple Reduction for Men
Nipple reduction is fairly routine and the cost is modest compared to other cosmetic procedures. You can expect to be able to return to work in just a day or two, though you may experience light soreness for a few days. A plastic surgeon who has performed nipple reduction in the past should be able to reduce the projection of your nipple so it is almost flat (see before and after photos on our gynecomastia website for examples).
Regarding your question about whether you might be denied, it's virtually certain that your insurance company won't cover the procedure (call to find out more from your carrier). A plastic surgeon is unlikely to decline to operate on you unless you have a serious health issue. Arrange a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to find out all the details you need to know.

Male Nipple Reduction
Fortunately, male nipple reduction is a relatively simple procedure that can be performed using a local anesthetic as an office procedure. The recovery is rapid and you will be able to return to work quickly if no heavy lifting is involved. You should be able to achieve your goals of a flat nipple.

Nipple reduction for Men
Thank you for the question.
Nipple reduction for men is a good procedure to treat prominent nipples. I do this procedure by removing a segment of nipple and covering the area with a superior little flap. The degree of flattening (most men want the result to be almost flush with the areola) can be tailored to the patient's requests.
This procedure is usually done under local anesthesia and requires no time off from most types of work. Patient satisfaction was a high and scars often not noticeable.
I hope this helps.

Nipple Reduction for Men is possible.
Excessively projecting nipples in men can be corrected by nipple reduction surgery.
These procedures are generally done under local anesthesia.
Seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who will examine you and advise you on your options.
Male nipple reduction is not an uncommon request.
Male nipple reduction is requested commonly and may be just an elongated and large nipple or may be present in the setting of a disproportionately large diameter areola or occur along with various degrees of gynecomastia. Improvements can often be achieved under local anesthesia. Patients usually are back in public and at work within a day or two but should avoid exercise and possible trauma to the area for a few weeks.
Often the degree of change needed is small but results are long lasting and can lead to improved confidence. Ask a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for an opinion.
Dr. Mosher
Yes, Nipple Reduction for Men is possible
Thank you very much for your enquiry, the best option for you depends on whether it is the nipple itself which is protuberant or the brown area (areaola) around the nipple which is puffy.
Both can be corrected but in correcting puffiness of the areola is slightly more complicated than simply reducing the size of the nipple itself.
It is just the nipple that's causing concern it is possible to make this flash and flash with the skin with no outward direction but you would need to discuss this in detail with your surgeon.
You would need to discuss the appearance you would like with surgeon.
I wish you the best of luck if you do decide to go ahead with treatment.

Griffin Press Room
Griffin Technology Announces its DriveSafe Initiative and Family of Handsfree In-Car Solutions
Devices designed to reduce driver distraction, including the all-new RoadTrip HandsFree and BlueTrip DualConnect
Nashville, TN — January 5, 2011 — Griffin Technology Inc., maker of innovations for everyday life, today unveiled DriveSafe, a major new initiative in automotive accessory design and usage. DriveSafe is a comprehensive range of in-car products designed to limit driver distractions from smartphones and mobile devices. The DriveSafe family includes a number of Griffin devices, including the new RoadTrip HandsFree and BlueTrip DualConnect, both featured products for CES 2011. The entire DriveSafe family is on display during CES in the Griffin booth, iLounge Pavilion — North Hall #4727.
"DriveSafe is not just a family of products. It's a philosophy of safer driving behaviors that encourages drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road," said Mark Rowan, President of Griffin Technology. "Bluetooth headsets are declining in popularity, and integrated in-car solutions are too expensive. Our DriveSafe products are designed for the real world, priced for everyone, and contain all the great Griffin in-car features drivers expect."
DriveSafe products are designed to help drivers by removing distractions caused by their smartphones or mobile devices. As mobile technology has developed, feature sets have expanded, and drivers have more potential distractions than ever before. Because their phones do more, drivers are encouraged to do more with them; but the devices, themselves, have become more complicated to use, demanding more of a driver's attention. These distractions are visual, physical, and cognitive; combined, they cause more than 1 million crashes annually in North America alone (AAA Foundation). For this reason, a number of states have created handsfree laws, limiting the ways drivers can use their phones. But handsfree solutions can often be impractical or uncomfortable, like Bluetooth headsets; or prohibitively expensive, such as integrated in-car systems. In spite of the extra expense, they sometimes fail to account for everyday smartphone needs, like charging and music playback. This led Griffin designers to ask the question, "How do we handle the reality of smartphones on the road?"
The answer is Griffin's DriveSafe family of handsfree devices. DriveSafe features new and proven Griffin devices, ranging from cables to integrated FM transmitter and Bluetooth devices, and everything in between. No matter the DriveSafe device, drivers are provided with simple, useful in-car accessories that help drivers keep their eyes on the road, their hands on the wheel, and their minds on the task at hand, while also staying in compliance with local laws. DriveSafe products fit every budget, from Griffin's HandsFree Mic + AUX Cable, to the new, feature-filled RoadTrip HandsFree and BlueTrip DualConnect. The full DriveSafe lineup, with feature sets for each product, can be found at www.griffintechnology.com/drivesafe.
The DriveSafe family of products will be featured in the Griffin booth during CES, iLounge Pavilion — North Hall #4727, including the brand-new RoadTrip HandsFree and BlueTrip DualConnect:
RoadTrip HandsFree
RoadTrip HandsFree is Griffin's complete in-car solution for iPhone, iPod, and all Bluetooth-enabled smartphones. RoadTrip HandsFree holds your iPhone or iPod securely in place on a flexible steel neck, in a cleverly designed cradle that accommodates most cases. The powerful FM transmitter sends music wirelessly to your car's FM radio, and features all the same great Griffin innovations of our standard RoadTrip, like: SmartScan, user-defined presets, SmartSound signal adjustment, and tactile remote control buttons.
You can also use RoadTrip HandsFree as a handsfree speakerphone in your car. RoadTrip's built-in microphone picks up your voice, and your caller's voice plays through your stereo speakers. RoadTrip's handsfree phone features work with iPhone and any other Bluetooth-enabled phone, even when another device is occupying RoadTrip's dock. When a call comes in, just touch RoadTrip's phone button and your call plays through the car's speakers. Touch the button again to end the call. Raised buttons that provide tactile feedback allow drivers to answer calls without taking their eyes off the road.
BlueTrip DualConnect
BlueTrip DualConnect is a handsfree in-car solution with a footprint so small you won't even notice it's there. BlueTrip plugs discreetly into your car's 12 volt accessory socket to satisfy its own modest power requirements. It connects to your iPhone or other smartphone wirelessly via Bluetooth. (It also works with iPad and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.) From there, BlueTrip gives you a choice of ways to get the music from your player to your car stereo. It can broadcast the music to your car's FM radio via FM transmitter, or you make a physical connection from BlueTrip to your car stereo's AUX-In port. When a call comes in, BlueTrip's built-in microphone clearly picks up your voice while playing call audio through the car speakers.

Pricing and Availability
RoadTrip HandsFree, $99.99, will be available in January 2011. BlueTrip DualConnect, also $99.99, will be available during the first quarter of 2011.

Mitrione Denied VADA Testing Only Due To Inconvenience | UFC NEWS
"Roy asked me, I don't remember what day it was, whatever day it was, it was probably a week and a half something like that ago," Mitrione said. "I just never, I had a bunch of other things going on. It felt like a little bit of a distraction, I just wasn't able to.
I have no problem with being tested, people can come and test me whenever they want. It's a couple weeks out on my training camps, I was so intent on getting my blinders put on, I cut my career off, I canceled my Twitter. I didn't want distractions on somewhat short notice, cutting a couple weeks out of my camp … I wanted to make sure I didn't have any issues couldn't distract me.
Actually it wasn't that big of a deal, you know, I asked him and its either a yes or no question and that's all I can do is ask for it and you either take it or you don't," said Nelson. "You know, so far I'm 0 for 2."

I agree with all the above picks, except I think Daley will take out Kroscheck. Looking forawrd to seeing Kimbo demolish Mitrione, but sad to see Marcus Davis demoted to the undercard. He's about as Irish as Jackie Chan, but still a great fighter.

The Senate voted down the Paycheck Fairness Act yesterday, a bill that was ostensibly aimed at closing the fabled 77-cent-on-the-dollar pay gap between men and women in the workplace (and in reality aimed at helping Democrats increase the gender vote gap between them and Republicans next November). The bill failed mainly along party lines:
The Paycheck Fairness Act earned 52 votes in favor of proceeding to final consideration, short of the 60 votes necessary. Senate Republicans voted en masse against the measure, believing that it could adversely affect businesses if employees attempt to file pay-related lawsuits.
But Democratic senators spent the hours before the vote speaking about why the legislation is needed to protect women concerned with having lower pay rates than their male colleagues. No Republican lawmaker discussed the issue on the Senate floor ahead of Tuesday's vote.
The Paycheck Fairness Act is a seriously flawed bill, but it's not completely without merit. A provision that would prevent employers from retaliating against workers who inquired about potential gender-based wage discrepancies sounds reasonable. And provisions that support more government research into the "gender wage gap" and supply job interview training for women aren't necessarily bad — just ineffective and probably a waste of government money and time.
But other parts of the bill — particularly the burden of proof issue — are downright dangerous, as the Heritage Foundation explains:
Under the current Equal Pay Act, once employees have provided prima facie evidence of sex discrimination, the burden of proof shifts to the employer to show that the difference in wages results from "any factor other than sex."
The PFA eliminates the "any factor other than sex" defense and replaces it with a "bona fide factor other than sex" defense. Employers can use this "bona fide factor" defense only if they demonstrate that "business necessity" demands it.
The legislation is fairly vague on what these "bona fide factors" might include, but lists education, training or experience. Of course, in real life there are other less tangible factors that could play a role in determining salary, including leverage during negotiations, innate talent or intelligence, competition from other employers, or a potential employee's previous salary. The employer might find himself in legal trouble if he based the decision on one of these more subjective factors.
And that's not the worst part — as Heritage explains further, the act would also require employers to provide training and education for female employees so that they can be on par with any male employees with higher salaries:
The PFA further provides:
Such [bona fide factor] defense shall not apply where the employee demonstrates that an alternative employment practice exists that would serve the same business purpose without producing such differential and that the employer has refused to adopt such alternative practice.
Consequently, the PFA would make virtually any pay difference between a male and female worker grounds for a lawsuit. An employee could sue if she could find an alternative pay practice that arguably serves the same business purpose. This would lead to the government and the courts dictating business practices to employers.
Consider a company with two employees in a division: a man with 10 years experience and a newly hired woman. If the company paid the man greater wages for his greater experience, the woman could insist that the employer provide her with intensive training to make up the experience gap and then pay her identical wages. And if the company refused? The woman in question could sue.
At best, the gender wage gap has been overstated. And to the extent that it does exist, it seems to have little to do with misogynistic employers trying to keep women down. If that were the case, the female Senate Democrats who have been championing the Paycheck Fairness Act wouldn't have gender wage gaps in their own offices.
Actually, it seems like the proponents of the Paycheck Fairness Act are the only ones who are nostalgic for workplace gender discrimination. While advocating for the act, President Obama has repeatedly claimed women make 77 cents for every dollar men make. That number is highly skewed and misleading — even Ezra Klein's liberal WonkBlog crunched its own numbers and came up with 91-cents-on-the-dollar, when controlling for life choices. Is that nine-cent gap due to actual gender discrimination? It's nearly impossible to say for certain, because there are a number of other factors that may also need to be taken into account. But the fact that advocates for the Paycheck Fairness Act have seized onto the scariest, least accurate number seems to be an intentional attempt to demoralize and disempower vulnerable women, convincing them they have less control over their lives and careers than they actually do.
This won't be the last we hear about the Paycheck Fairness Act. Obama will likely keep it in his reelection pitch. But its failure in the Senate yesterday was a good thing for employers and for women in the workplace.

Read Poems by
Stephanie Whitley
I'm tired.
All I do is clean our house,
And do your laundry,
And make your bed,
And pay these bills.
I'm tired.
All you do is play around,
And sleep all day,
And spend more money,
And build useless things.
I'm tired.
I can't see straight anymore.
I'm tired.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm tired.
Everytime I look in the mirror,
I wonder who I'm looking at.
I'm tired.
I watch you play
And smile
And laugh,
While I clean up something else.
I'm tired.
You spend money on things
That we don't need.
I'm tired.
I worry about bills,
And important things,
While you try to figure out what game to play.
Then you say I need to stop being so stressed.
I'm tired.
I'm tired of working
And cleaning
And praying
And watching
And wondering
And thinking that I am going to go crazy.
I'm tired.
I'm tired of you.

The leg tingler who says Sarah Palin doesn't know anything turns out not to know anything: "There is nothing, and I mean nothing, like watching Chris Matthews get his a– demolished on Celebrity Jeopardy. … Do I smell a Wolf Blitzer repeat? If you aren't watching tonight, how else would you learn that the Rocky Mountains actually run through California? Christo is on fire!"
The latest in the Fort Jackson food poisoning investigation is here. A new wrinkle: it is not clear whether the suspects were U.S. citizens or part of an outreach program to non-citizens who can speak "fluent Arabic, Dari, Pashto, or some other needed language."
Par for the course for Chicago pols: "Rep. Joe Sestak (D., Pa.) said yesterday that the White House offered him a federal job in an effort to dissuade him from challenging Sen. Arlen Specter in the state's Democratic primary." You kind of see why Blago thinks "everyone" trades jobs and public offices.
It's not hard to figure out why Obama "seems incapable of speaking to Muslims without slyly suggesting he is one of them." (We saw that "in his Cairo address, he basically so bloated up the early relations between Morocco and America that his version amounted to a virtual falsehood … [and] he still thinks his speech to the university in Cairo was historic." ) Answer: Obama has a bloated view of his own importance and has adopted the Left's Third Worldism, in which the "Muslim World" — another fiction! — is oppressed by the West. (Recall that he also told us Palestinians are like enslaved African Americans.)
Martin Feldstein on Obama's deficit blame-mongering: "The administration's projected $18.5 trillion debt in 2020 would be more than double the size of the debt when Mr. Obama took office. The annual interest on that debt would exceed $800 billion, requiring a 36% rise in the personal income tax just to pay that interest. Mr. Obama complains about the problems he 'inherited.' But the key to shrinking the nearer term deficits is to avoid his costly new initiatives.' Feldstein complains that instead Obama is focused on tax hikes which "would hurt incentives, hurt the recovery, and hurt the economy's long-term growth."
Andy McCarthy, prosecutor and critic of the Obama-Holder criminal-justice approach to terrorism, does the impossible: he gets treated fairly in the New York Times. Yes, read the whole thing.
Charlie Cook says that "if I had a choice of the Republican Party's problems right now or the Democratic Party's problems, I think you could triple the Republican Party's problems and I'd still rather have their problems than the problems facing Democrats." It's that kind of year.
Minority Whip Eric Cantor says that if Obama is going to jam through ObamaCare with reconciliation, then forget the "bipartisan" health-care summit. He seems to have a point — the hamhanded Democrats shouldn't have rolled out their "we'll do it anyway" plan before the summit. What were they thinking?
Yuval Levin thinks it's crazy talk: "The apparent decision to push Obamacare through reconciliation gives new meaning to the term political suicide. It will almost certainly fail, for one thing. And it will persuade rank and file Democrats in Congress that their leaders have lost their minds, and so will badly divide the Democratic caucus and make for a very difficult year to come for them."
I'm not the only one who noticed that Tim Pawlenty has an authenticity problem."When I read that the governor 'appealed to the tea-party movement, calling its critics a 'brie-eating' elite from 'Ivy League schools' who don't like 'Sam's Club Republicans' who 'actually like shopping at places like Wal-Mart,′ I thought just one thing: The guy's a phony. And patronizing, too. Good grief." Yeah, but it's only 2010.

Penn State Head Coach Quotes
Oct. 29, 2011
PENN STATE HEAD COACH Joe Paterno POSTGAME QUOTES
Award Ceremony:
Joe Paterno: Thank you Tim and President Spanier. It really is something I'm really proud of to be associated with Eddie Robinson. Some of you may not have heard; I've told people many, many times two of the greatest people we've ever had in college football are Jake Gaither and Eddie Robinson. Jake was a head coach at Florida A&M. At 24 years of age, Eddie became the head coach at Grambling. Those two men opened up the doors for the African-American kid. They had no place to go. The Southeastern Conference didn't take any black kids. There were very few playing up North. Jake Gaither and Eddie Robinson went out and showed people what kind of athlete these kids could be. So for me; a kid from Brooklyn, whose Grandfather was an immigrant, to be something like this really means a lot to me. An awful lot. There's a lot of people I have to thank. As I walked in here, Jay Paterno said, 'Hey, don't forget to thank the groundskeepers, they've been here for 25 years doing things.' Also, the coaching staff and a really good bunch of kids that I think proved today that they got; they're good kids. I don't know. For crying out loud, you've got me making a speech. To all the fans out there, thanks for sitting through that today, you've got to be nuts (laughter).
Press Conference:
Q: Joe, with the way you're offense was playing, did you have any doubt about that last drive?
Q: Joe, can you go into the decision to play Derek Moye, especially in the 4th quarter?
Q: Joe, what did Matt McGloin show you on that last drive?
Q: Joe, what were your thoughts on how Silas Redd played today?
Q: Coach, can a team grow into the kind of team you desire through these struggles more than lopsided victories?
Q: With all of the games you've been involved with, what's it like for you when it comes down to the last play?
Q: You are the last unbeaten team in the Big Ten. How does that feel?
Q: Is there any part of you that is enjoying the style of games that have been all over this season? It's kind of like the 1970s, isn't it?

Being a man is difficult if you've never tried it before. Dressing up as the opposite sex is never enough to accurately reproduce the mindset of your character, and generations of actors who have switched genders on stage have had to deal with this conundrum. There is a wide spectrum of intention behind cross-dressing in theater: the actor has to decide whether they want to actually portray a member of the opposite sex, or just appear to be a man in a woman's clothing. So much of our culture is tied up in stark delineations between the two sexes, and successful juggling of genders of the actor and of the role is difficult without a very distinct artistic motive.
As I learned rehearsing for an all-female production of "The Taming of the Shrew,"the only thing harder than learning to walk like a man is learning to stand still like a man. When walking, you can focus on stiffening your shoulders or taking the rotation out of your hips: those are only for ladies and Latin dancers. Standing still, however, especially for long periods of time, is more of a challenge. "I think it honestly is a lot about having a penis," says Olivia L. Ball '14, who plays Petruchio in "Shrew However, it is also very tempting to rely on this anatomical novelty and swagger around with your pelvis stuck out, scratching and spitting. The propensity to fall into stereotype is one of the pitfalls of acting the opposite sex; most men—thankfully—don't behave in the way that it's easiest to portray them. Some of the aspects of male competitiveness were explained during "sock penis" rehearsals for the production as cast members produced a range of socks from anklets to knee-highs. "It makes a huge difference in how you act physically and emotionally," says Ball of the prop penis. It changes the walk, the stance, and more nuanced body language, and therefore redefines the way an actor interacts with other characters. A deal of extraneous awkwardness is of course derived from the lack of attachment, which can at times change the new gait from swagger to limp.
"Another interesting thing that you need to keep in mind as a man is how you interact with women," says director Simone E. Polanen '14. A great deal of gender identity is centered in interactions with the opposite sex, and so this informs the characterization of male roles and often other actors' portrayal of the female characters. "What often happens in a show that becomes all-female specifically is that the female characters, the people who should be female, become heightened," says student director Josh R. McTaggart '13, a Crimson arts editor. Indeed this is a potential danger to an all-female cast, as actors may be inclined to increase their femininity in a kind of arms race with female performers in male roles.
Certainly in Shakespeare's time all roles were written for male actors, and women were usually portrayed by younger boys in female clothing. As a result, the gender of characters—particularly female character—can be a significant feature of their lines and interactions. "A lot of what you can use is in the language, because Shakespeare was writing for men even when it was a female part." says Morgan Goldstein, an MFA candidate in Dramaturgy and Teaching Fellow for Dramatic Arts 115: Acting Shakespeare. Changing the gender of the performer but not the role—which Goldstein calls "real disguise"—has become less common in contemporary theatre and usually only occurs in productions with a single sex cast. For example, shows put on by Shakespeare's Globe in London, which aims to give a realistic portrayal of the Elizabethan theatrical experience, frequently puts on plays with exclusively male casts.
It is the instinctive identification of the sexes that makes gender swap such an effective theatrical device. However, to successfully achieve this effect, actors must suppress the gender identity they have been conditioned to have normally, and in the process convincingly challenge the audience's own preconceptions of gender.

The fourth-ranked Western Nebraska Community College volleyball team recorded seven aces as the Cougars notched their 30th win of the season with a 25-14, 25-11, 25-18 sweep over Lamar Community College Thursday night at Cougar Palace.
WNCC's serving definitely was a key factor in the win on Friday and Lindsey Wehkamp said the team has been working on their serving.
"We worked a lot on our serves from the beginning of the season and we are missing a lot less," she said. "I think that is a big positive."
The win marked the 17th straight year the Cougars have won 30-plus games dating back to Michelle Gomez' 1997 team that went 31-18. Wehkamp said that the losses last weekend were good for the team as it opened their eyes to what they need to get better at.
"Honestly, those two losses put a lot of fire into us and made us focus what we really need to do to win," she said. "We have improved since then [the losses to Tyler and Blinn]. Those losses were an eye-opener for us."
More importantly, though, WNCC stayed in control of capturing the South sub-region. WNCC moves to 6-0 in sub-region play and are a perfect 18-0 in sets won. Wehkamp said they played well for a second consecutive night.
"I think we played really well. We are getting a little bit more consistent every game and I think that is important for us to do, especially when it comes to the end of the season," the sophomore from Cimarron, Kan., said.
Another big key for the Cougars in the win was their intensity. Wehkamp said when they play with emotion and high intensity, they play better on the court.
"When we relax, just play our game, and have fun, cheer, be intense that is when we play our best," she said.
The Cougars offensive weapons were also spread out. Martin paced the team with 10 kills and three blocks, but Leticia Silva matched her jersey number with nine kills, including a thundering kill in the first set that set the tone for the rest of the contest.
Also for the Cougars, Mendes tallied six kills, Kylie Fa'amoe had five kills and five blocks, Gabriela Varela had three kills and two blocks, and Wehkamp and Amanda Schoene each had two kills.
Morgan Broussard the contest with 16 set assists and eight points; Luiza Martins had 11 set assists and three points; Mendes finished with five points, two aces, and eight digs; Rachel McCracken had five points, an ace, and six digs; Martin had eight digs, six points and an ace; Schoene had six digs and two points; and Erika Goodwin had five points and two aces.
Half of the Cougars aces came in the first set as the Cougars received two aces from Mendes, and one each from Martin and McCracken. McCracken had the big service run, putting together four points to open up a 14-9 to a double-digit 19-9 lead. Also in the first set, Silva pounded the floor with five kills.
The second set saw the Cougars continue to excel on all cylinders as Wehkamp had three service points to give the Cougars a 7-3 lead. Wekhamp later had a kill and a service point to push the lead to 18-9 and then Goodwin closed off the set with five points, including two aces for the win.
The third set was close as Lamar held a 14-12 lead on two Kindle Kirkham points. But a kill from Martin and then two points from Wehkamp put the Cougars in front 15-14. After Lamar retook the lead at 16-15, WNCC came back as Broussard racked up six straight service points as Martin had back-to-back kills and Silva hammered another rocket shot to the floor. Schoene then finished off the Lopes for the Cougars' 30th win of the season.
WNCC will wrap up the 3-day home stand with a contest against Trinidad State Junior College today at 1 p.m. at Cougar Palace.
"Trinidad is a good team and we just need to focus on our side and worry about us," Wehkamp said. "We just need to play our game."

After the obligatory handshake line, Charleston Southern players streamed to the far side of Johnson Hagood Stadium, celebrating with delirious Buccaneer fans in the stands.
"We just wanted to gain a little respect," CSU quarterback Malcolm Dixon said, minutes after the clock ran out on the Bucs' 32-29 upset of The Citadel on Saturday night. "We know this is a Citadel community, but we wanted to show that we are here too."
On the home side of the stadium, the bulk of the 12,196 fans stood in stunned silence. The most anticipated Citadel football season in years had begun in disaster, a shocking loss to a CSU team playing its first game under coach Jamey Chadwell.
"There's a thin line between being confident and over-confident," Citadel quarterback Aaron Miller said outside a silent Bulldogs locker room. "And we may have been just a tad bit over-confident in this game."
This was no fluke, even though the 0-1 Bulldogs gifted the Bucs two touchdowns on punts muffed by Citadel slotback Vinny Miller. After rushing for just eight yards in the first half, Charleston Southern (1-0) pushed the Bulldogs' defense around in the second half.
CSU rushed for 131 yards in the final 30 minutes, taking its first lead at 21-16 after a 75-yard march to open the second half. Cameron Mitchell booted a 29-yard field goal with 6:01 left for the winning margin, and The Citadel could not even get into field-goal range on its last two possessions.
"Disappointing game," said Citadel coach Kevin Higgins, whose team built a 16-0 lead late in the second quarter and was outscored 32-13 from there. "The two muffed punts gave them short fields with momentum, and we gave them life. I give a lot of credit to Charleston Southern, though. Jamey has done a very good job."
Chadwell, an assistant to former CSU coach Jay Mills, opened his tenure with the Bucs' second win in seven meetings with the Bulldogs, who may want to move Charleston Southern up a few notches on their rivalry chart. Dixon threw two touchdown passes, and the Bucs' 3-4 defense threw a lot of different looks at The Citadel's triple option.
The Citadel rushed for 293 yards, but got nothing going consistently. The Bulldogs were just 6 of 15 on third down, had to punt four times and turned the ball over twice on the muffed punts.
"We caught them on a good night," Chadwell said. "Regardless of whether they say it or not, they were probably looking past us a little bit (to Wofford next week). I feel proud of what our guys overcame. They were hammering us early, and to be able to finish it off and get a win, it's huge for us."
Despite a sputtering offense, The Citadel seemed ready to take control early, after a bad-snap safety and TD runs by Aaron Miller and Terrance Martin gave the Bulldogs a 16-0 lead with 5:19 left in the first half.
But two plays kept CSU in the game. Citadel safety Julian Baxter failed to give help over the top on a 64-yard TD pass from Dixon to Kevin Glears to make it 16-7 with 2:52 left in the half.
Then, Vinny Miller tried to field a short, end-over-end punt from CSU freshman Truett Burns, who employs an unusual side-winding sytle. The Bucs recovered his muff at the Bulldogs' 19, and Dixon found receiver Donte Sumpter for a 19-yard TD on the next play. Just like that, it was 16-14 at the half.
A 4-yard TD run by Dupree had given the Bulldogs a 22-21 lead in the third quarter when Vinny Miller botched a second punt at his own 25. This time, CSU scored on an 11-yard run by Zachary Frazier for a 29-22 lead with 1:34 left in the third quarter.
"We practiced against those type of punts," Vinny Miller said. "I just got too excited, and I paid for it."
Vinny Miller got a measure of redemption on a 4-yard TD run that tied the game at 29 with 11:30 left. But the Bucs would not be denied, their 54-yard drive keyed by a 24-yard run by Christian Reyes, who finished with 92 yards on 22 carries. Mitchell, a 6-5, 225-pound sophomore from Tarpon Springs, Fla., stayed cool after the Bucs got a delay penalty on his first field goal try, converting a 29-yarder for a 32-29 lead.
On their final two drives, the Bulldogs could get no farther than the CSU 36, failing to convert on fourth-down passes both times.
Now, Higgins must figure out how to pull his team together before what was supposed to be a showdown of Southern Conference contenders next week against Wofford, which lost big at Baylor on Saturday night.
"It's no easy challenge," said Higgins, whose "1 and 0" slogan was supposed to keep the Bulldogs focused on CSU instead of Wofford. "But we do have great kids, great character kids. We just have to re-focus and get this game behind us. We've got to establish who we are next week."

At this point in the season, the Science Hill High School 'Topper Band is marching to a different tune.
The band's 1970s-inspired show, which includes KC and the Sunshine Band's "That's the Way (I Like It)," the Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive," and Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," has captured the attention of the Friday night football crowd as the band prepares to enter competition season.
Work that began in the summer is now paying off as the band works on perfecting its halftime show and it's showing off, according to directors Carson Vermillion and Dan McGuire.
"This is probably one of the hardest-working groups we've had," McGuire said of the 156-member marching band.
The band will participate in the Tennessee Valley Showcase at Dobyns-Bennett High School Saturday, competing against marching bands from Tennessee, Georgia and Kentucky.
After this weekend's competition, the band will be heading to Sullivan Central High School Oct. 20 for the Appalachian Classic, then to Farragut High School in Knoxville Oct. 27, where they will end competition season at the Admirals Cup Invitational.
This year's show is a bit of a departure for the band after performing more classical shows over the last few years, but it's a show that has allowed the band to be more engaging with their fans.
"I think the show definitely is a lot more crowd-pleasing than shows we've done in the past, not to say that shows we've done in the past are bad in any way, but it's a different kind of thing," senior horn player Elizabeth Simmons said.
With the band's first competition only a day away, they are fine-tuning every little nuance of their performance, hoping to better themselves as they prepare to face judges.
That's the whole point of competition season, according to McGuire.
"The average person on the street is not really going to understand and hear the things that take us from fifth place to first place, but if we stop going to competitions and we didn't get the feedback anymore to make the band better, they'd start hearing it on Friday night in a year or two," he said.
Senior Lyndsey Smith, one of the band's drum majors, said there are a lot of small factors in their performance that if done wrong could mean the difference from fifth and first place.
"Competitions are just so different from Friday night performances. There's so much more that you think about," she said.
Through evaluations from competition, the band is able to grow, which makes them a stronger unit, Vermillion said.
"Obviously, we don't want to be performing our best at the beginning of the season. We want to be performing our best at the end of the season," he said.
That type of growth has helped create the strong reputation the Science Hill band has.
Simmons and Smith both said they're happy to be part of a band that is known for its success and they're also glad to be adding to its already glowing reputation.
"It's pretty cool to be a part of what's happening now but also what used to be," Smith said.
"It's also pretty cool that we're in our own way getting to build the reputation of the band. At times that can be nervewracking ... but it's a very fun thing because we are doing pretty well this year as I see it," Simmons said.
But when competition season comes to an end, that doesn't mean the 'Topper band's marching season is all said and done.
After they compete in Knoxville, the band will begin practicing for The Hollywood Christmas Parade, which will be held in Los Angeles Nov. 27.
Once the marching season has been put to rest, the band will take a short break and then reconvene for concert season, which picks up in the spring.
"I think people tend to think we slow down in the spring, but it's just as busy. We just aren't out on the field every Friday night, but we are still really, really busy," Vermillion said.

One of Aam Janata's favourites !!!
Although it has been a while since I visited here, this is a place that I have fond memories of. Anyone who has grown up in Bangalore, especially around North or West Bangalore, would know of this iconic place on Malleswaram 8th Cross. It has been a great part of my childhood & beyond.
The simple Vegetarian, South Indian Hotel is a trademark of Bangalore & this place is just that. It offers mouth-watering "tiffin" items along with another B'lore favourite- Filter coffee.
I'm a huge fan of their Masala Dosa, Vada and Mangalore Bajji. Other dishes like Idly, Rava Idly, Kesari bath etc too are quite good.
This is a place you would visit, eat and just leave. Simple 70s-80s decor, milling crowds, waiters etc are a typical sight here.
A recommended place for all South Indian food fans.

Wonderful Mysore Bonda
Yet another typical tiffins restaurant where there is limited menu with quick service. We found ourselves a table, ordered butter masala dosa, savige bath(vermicelli upma), mysore bonda, tea and coffee.
All the items were delicious to the core. Butter masala dosa was tasty - dosa was quite crispy and the potato masala was delicious. The dish that is worthy mentioning is Mysore Bonda. Usually, at other places, the bondas are crispy on the outside and a bit raw/uncooked from inside. But these ones were completely different. Crispy from outside, completely cooked from inside too. The chutneys that accompanied were tasty too as well as sambhar. Nothing to complain about, in fact.
Food: 3.5 / 5
Ambiance : 3.5 / 5
Service: 3.5 / 5
Price : 4, pretty reasonable

Delicious Dosas
This is a small darshini that has been around for a long time now. I can never figure out their timings. They shut and open shop at really odd times. But when they are open, I consider myself to be super lucky.
The ambience of the place is very simple, it's a no-frills place, where you come, order and scoot as soon as possible. The service is brisk and to the point, very effective in places as crowded as these.
Their dosas though are something else! Don't miss them when you are here. Golden, crisp and simply delicious. The bill barely adds up to anything, that's the best part.

Used to have the best Kharabath
Till about two years back the Kharabath served here (only after 9AM) used to be really good. Later I am not sure what happened, it went to the other extreme of being just pathetic. Kharabath used to be dry earlier but now its like concrete mix with large pieces of onion.
Other dishes are okay and nothing really special. They are now on self-service mode which is good as most of the waiters there are too ill-mannered to be able to 'serve'.

Declining Service
Hi All I'm a Malleshwaram resident all my life and Hotel Janata is one of the few places that used to ring the taste buds and needed no assurances. I've been a very frequent Customer right from my school days and can now clearly see the decline in Quality and Service. I agree that the food is still yummy but that's not all, Customers have to be treated with respect because it is WE who turned the place to fame. The management need to be courteous and dignified. I have witnessed many times how Customers are ill-treated and scolded for no fault of theirs. Their rule is if U have placed an order or take away just shut-up and take it or leave it, guys we need to shout this out together and make them understand what Customers are, it's very sad to write a bad review being a Malleshwaram resident but i cannot keep coy about it as Customers are not beggars but it's US who made the place famous

Perfect Dosas
It is rare to get doses made to perfection. My experience at janata hotel, malleswaram, left me in no doubt that this is a kind of dose paradise ... MMMMMMM ... what texture, what taste, the masala filling was just right ... the chutney super. The sambar was a trifle too sweet but hey, lets let some things just pass, right ? In the larger scheme of things ... My request to make it with lesser-than-usual oil was honored ...
I left the place a very happy man ...
Superb dosas and mangaluru bhajji
I have been going to this place for nearly 15 years and the last time I went its undergone a massive change. Its turned into a self service place. Thankfully the taste has remained the same. The first thing I order when I go there is the dosa. The dosas are really yummy, melt in your mouth. The chutney isn't very hot and full of coconut. Other popular item on the menu is the mangaluru bhajji. Very tasty but high on calories. I haven't gone beyond these 2 items in the menu. Never felt like eating anything other than these.
The only flip side is the cleanliness.

Best Vadas in the UNIVERSE. PERIOD.
Glad to see the board has English Translation. In 1981, it was all kannada, but the unmistakable smell of frying vadas would draw you in. It used to close between 11AM and 5 PM! Only breakfast in the AM (vadas idlis and uttapums - with more offerings in the PM....or so I remember. I don't think I ever ate anything other than vadas in this joint.
It was pay first type of place. The dude who sat at the counter had not washed his "baniyan" since first purchase, and never wore a shirt in the morning (no females for breakfats - may be that was the reason).

Best Vada Sambhar in the world
I have been having Vada Sambhar in Janata Hotel for almost 26yrs now, the taste and the service has not changed a bit, the ambience has been little modified, I dont care for that, for me the nostalgic flavour of Janata remains thier USP. have stood in long qs outside the hotel just to have that double vada, dose and torino...
Used to go their with Grand Parents and I hope one day I can take my grand kids to this place :)

The best uddin vadas in Bangalore
Janatha hotel is world famous for its uddin vadas and sambar. I've often had masala dosas in CTR (next street) and then moved on to Janatha to satisfy my hunger for great vadas. This is another heritage place that probably has nt changed in taste, service and looks for decades.

Probably the best dosas in town
The extra ghee and the super-fast service and the general atmosphere of a really busy south Indian kitchen is what this place is about. The masala dosas are cooked to a perfect roasted that's really consistent. But if you're calorie concious, then don't visit this place too often. But if you really gotta go here, don't miss the masala dosas.

Pharma/fine chemicals roundup—14 May 2013
11:14 AM MDT | May 14, 2013 | By DEEPTI RAMESH
Ampac Fine Chemicals swings to profit
Ampac Fine Chemicals (AFC; Rancho Cordova, CA), a subsidiary of American Pacific (Las Vegas), recorded an operating profit of $3.8 million in its fiscal second quarter, ended 31 March, compared with an operating loss of $1 million in the year-ago quarter. Second-quarter sales were $37.3 million compared with $20.6 million in the year-ago period. For the fiscal first half ended 31 March, AFC recorded an operating profit of $5 million compared with an operating loss of $2.2 million in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. First-half sales were $58.6 million compared with $42.1 million in the year-ago period. In the fine chemicals segment, oncology product revenues increased in both the second quarter and the six-month period, supported by revenues from new oncology products for drugs that were commercialized in the later part of the previous fiscal year, the company says. The second quarter also includes increases from the anti-viral, central nervous systems and development product groups. These increases are substantially due to inter-quarter timing when compared to the prior fiscal year, AFC says.
ScinoPharm and Coland form alliance for oncological injectable products for China
Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) manufacturer ScinoPharm Taiwan (Shanhua, Taiwan) says that it has formed a strategic alliance with Coland Holdings (Shanghai) to develop a series of generic oncological drugs for mainland China. The cooperation utilizes ScinoPharm's process R&D and production advantages in the field of highly potent oncological APIs and Coland's well-established marketing capabilities in China to build an active presence within China's rapidly growing anticancer drug market. Under the alliance, ScinoPharm will provide the APIs; a third-party company will be commissioned to develop, formulate, and register oncological pharmaceutical products; and Coland and ScinoPharm will be jointly responsible for the marketing and sales efforts in the Chinese market. Several APIs have been initially selected for development and future sales as injectable formulation products from the list of ScinoPharm-developed APIs. This will allow the companies to compete in the anticancer drug market in China and to tap into this large and growing business, ScinoPharm says.
Codexis net loss widens
Codexis (Redwood City, CA), a company that engineers enzymes for pharmaceutical, biofuel, and chemical production, has reported a net loss of $9.62 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared with a net loss of $7.49 million in the year-ago quarter. First-quarter sales decreased 63%, to $11.48 million, primarily because of the termination of Codexis's collaborative research agreement with Shell in August 2012 and the resulting loss of associated collaborative R&D revenue, Codexis says.
Codexis says that, as a result of the termination of the agreement with Shell, year-on-year comparisons for its first three quarters of 2013 are not an appropriate measure of the company's financial performance. Sales for the first quarter of 2013 increased 45% from the fourth quarter of 2012. Product revenue in the first quarter of 2013 was $9.1 million, a 34% increase from $6.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The first quarter net loss of $9.6 million compares with a net loss of $15.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2012.
USP opens center for pharmaceutical advancement and training in Ghana
The US Pharmacopeial Convention (USP; Rockville, MD) says it has launched a Center for Pharmaceutical Advancement and Training (Cepat) at Accra, Ghana, to increase the number of experts and available tools to combat falsified, substandard, and counterfeit medicines in countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Ghanaians and many in sub-Saharan Africa currently face a serious problem when it comes to accessing quality medicines, USP says. "Serious public health issues related to poor-quality medicines have been linked to lack of trained human resources, in countries with limited resources," says Patrick Lukulay, v.p./global health impact programs at USP and who also oversees Cepat operations. "With the center, we want to bring the opportunity to improve local, quality assurance systems by training national regulatory agencies and quality-control professionals so they can fight the problem of fake and substandard medicines in a sustainable way."
Ranbaxy's API business reports fall in sales
The active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) business of Indian pharmaceutical major Ranbaxy Laboratories (Gurgaon, India) recorded sales of 1.81 billion Indian rupees ($33.2 million) in the first quarter, ended 31 March, compared with sales of $34 million in the year-ago quarter. Profits for the API business were not disclosed.

Police: Pennsylvania priest caught with pantless 15-year-old on college campus
(CNN) -- A Catholic priest in Pennsylvania has been charged with molesting a teenage boy after police said he was found in a car on a college campus with a 15-year-old who was wearing no pants, according to a police criminal complaint filed Friday in Lackawanna County.
A MESSAGE FROM SNAP: http://www.snapnetwork.org/pa_scranton_priest_arrested_snap_responds
We urge every current or former Scranton area Catholic church employee or member to search his or her conscience, find some courage, and spread the word about these allegations against Fr. Paulish. We urge anyone who may have seen, suspected or suffered crimes by Fr. Paulish or cover ups by Scranton church officials to call law enforcement immediately. That kind of prompt, compassionate action is what protects kids.
The Rev. W. Jeffrey Paulish was charged with one felony count of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and one felony count of unlawful contact with a minor after Dunmore police say they found him and the boy on Thursday in a car on the Worthington Scranton campus of Penn State University, according to the complaint.
Paulish, 56, of Scranton, was also charged with three misdemeanor counts -- indecent contact with a person under 16, indecent exposure and corruption of a minor. He is being held at the Lackawanna County jail on $50,000 bail.
Dunmore police officers say they discovered Paulish and the boy after responding to a call of a suspicious vehicle, according to an arrest warrant affidavit filed with the court.
Allegedly Paulish told police he was at the campus working on his homily when he met the teen, who he said was in emotional distress, and began counseling him.
According to the affidavit, he later admitted to police that he had arranged the meeting with the teen through the "casual encounters" section of Craigslist. Paulish told investigators that he had asked the boy three times if he was over the age of 18, the affidavit said.
A telephone message left by CNN for Paulish's attorney, Bernard J. Brown, was not immediately returned Friday.
Paulish has been removed from his post at the Prince of Peace parish and has been suspended from acting in the capacity of a priest, according to a statement released by the Diocese of Scranton.
The diocese pledged its cooperation with the investigation, and it called on anyone who "may have been sexually abused by Father Paulish or any member of the clergy" to notify the district attorney's office.
"I wish to acknowledge how unsettling this is to me personally and to countless others, that yet again a priest has been involved in such inappropriate, immoral and illegal behavior," the Bishop of Scranton, the Rev. Joseph Bambera, said in the statement.

I searched for good gun scripts everywhere and got sick of the search; here is a bit of almost every script I seen all added together. It's a machine gun, burst / single shot, shotgun, and a grenade/rocket launcher all-in one script (c# only sorry). With a few changes in variables, you can make almost any weapon you wish. This gun side script supports variable bullet penetration, bullet creates impact effects and bullet holes on both sides of a penetrated wall, and variable tracers. Gun also has variables for random bullet spread with support for a decrease in accuracy during sustained fire from machine guns. Burst mode can fire any number of rounds per trigger pull and you can set the time between the rounds fired in the burst. Want a single shot? Set the burst to 1 and done. Shotgun has a variable for the number of pellets fired per shot. The Launcher supports both rockets and grenades if you're into noob tubes. ...the scripts have the framework in for multi-player, but hasn't been fully integrated yet, but should be soon. I'm working with the standard unity master server so my multi-player parts will be geared toward that. Forgot to mention, use the right mouse button(fire2) to look down the sights of your gun.

Tower Recods selling all Wii games 25% off
Reader Jayson Cote wrote in and said:
"Tower Records is selling off all inventory at 25% off. They have almost every Wii game in stock for 25% off…I just bought WarioWare and Excite Truck for $37.49 each!"
Tower, which owes creditors about $200 million, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in August. In its filing, Tower said it has been hurt by an industry-wide decline in music sales, the trend toward downloading online music rather than buying CDs and competition from discount stores such as Wal-Mart.
Bad for Tower, good for Wii game buyers.

I'm Ambari v.1.2.4 user.
I want to change period on 2hr graph of ganglia from 6min to 5min.
So I changed /etc/ganglia/hdp/gmetad.conf
(remove # and RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:244 to RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:20:244)
RRAs "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:244″ "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:20:244″ "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:168:244″ "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:672:244″ "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:5760:374″
And then, I restart ganglia by Ambari but there was no change..
I tried "service gmetad start" command on ganglia server, but it also doesn't work.
What should I do to change ganglia graph period??

text: The Luttrell Public Library was established in 1951. The library was housed in Dr. R. S. Monroe's small office building in Luttrell. School girls served as librarians in the afternoon each week. Under the sponsorship of the Luttrell Ruritan Club the library was moved in May 1959 into the stock room at Harry Waddington's store in Luttrell. The Union County Court then appropriated library funds, a library board was elected and the Clinch-Powell Regional Library then started to supply books. The Ruitan Club built the shelves in this facility. The library was open three hours each week on Thursday. In September 1960 The Library was moved to the Donahue Building in Luttrell and rented the room for $10 a month. In 1982 the library was moved into a 550 square foot room in the same building with Luttrell City Hall. This building at one time was an Oil Company Building. In 2004 Luttrell Public Library applied and received a $100,000.00 Library Construction Building Grant from the state. We are now in the new Luttrell Public Library with over 2000 square feet of space. The new library is located next to Luttrell Elementary School (grade K-5) in the Luttrell Recreational Park.
