Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is a cancer that generally starts in the cells that line the airways of the lungs. The 2 basic types of lung cancer are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
Follow up with your oncologist as directed:
You will need to see your oncologist for ongoing treatment. Write down your questions so you remember to ask them during your visits.
You may be given oxygen through a mask or nasal cannula to help you breathe easier. Do not smoke or let anyone else smoke in the same room while your oxygen is on. This may cause a fire.
Self-care during cancer treatment:
- Rest as needed. Return to activities slowly, and do more as you feel stronger. You may have trouble breathing when you are lying down. Use foam wedges or elevate the head of your bed. This may help you breathe easier while you are resting or sleeping. Use a device that will tilt your whole body, or bend your body at the waist. The device should not bend your body at the upper back or neck.
- Drink liquids as directed. Ask how much liquid to drink each day and which liquids are best for you. Drink extra liquids to prevent dehydration. You will also need to drink extra liquids if you are vomiting or have diarrhea from cancer treatments.
- Eat healthy foods. Healthy foods include fruits, vegetables, whole-grain breads, low-fat dairy products, beans, lean meats, and fish. It may be easier for you to eat several small meals a day rather than a few large meals.
- Do not smoke. If you smoke, it is never too late to quit. Ask for information if you need help quitting. Avoid being around others who smoke.
Contact your primary healthcare provider or oncologist if:
- You have a fever.
- You have blood in your mucus or spit.
- You are vomiting and cannot keep food or liquids down.
- You have questions or concerns about your condition or care.
Return to the emergency department if:
- You cannot think clearly.
- You suddenly feel lightheaded or are short of breath.
- Your lips or nails look blue or pale.
- Your arm or leg feels warm, tender, and painful. It may look swollen and red.
- You have chest pain when you take a deep breath or cough. You cough up blood.

Looks – Court-Aprooved Super Subtle & Natural Makeup
This is a look I did on Wednesday, but I'm just getting around to posting now. It's the look I wore for my actual oral argument, which I got complimented on, so yay, guess it's court-approved!
I used Soft Ochre paint pot on lid, Ricepaper eyeshadow all over lid, Cork eyeshadow on outer crease and lid, Espresso lightly in outer crease, Ricepaper eyeshadow above brow and on crease, UD Stash 24/7 Liner on lower lash line, and Plushlash mascara on lashes. I wore Margin blush on cheeks. I had Sandy B lipstick with Full On Lust lipglass (LE) on my lips.
** These are recommendations for dupes based on permanent colors available — may not necessarily be identical; they are the closest I can think of!
Full On Lust = Lust

Blues, Jews, and Money
Few forms of American music are considered to be as indigenous, authentic, and regional as blues, especially Mississippi Delta blues. Born on isolated plantations, refined and embellished on Chicago's South and West Side ghettos, the influence of blues on popular music has been inestimable. Indeed, the quintessential rock 'n' roll band, the Rolling Stones, took its name from an obscure single by Mississippi-born McKinley Morganfield—aka Muddy Waters—recorded for a small, family-owned business in Chicago called Chess Records.
A new documentary, Born in Chicago, stresses that the spread of blues was far from inevitable. It makes clear, as well, the key role American Jews played in preserving and promoting the blues, as well as using it as the basis for new musical innovations of their own.
The film tells the story of a group of postwar teenage Jewish suburbanites from Chicago's North Shore—including keyboardist Barry Goldberg, guitarist Harvey Mandel, harmonica player Corky Siegel, and, most notably, guitarist Michael Bloomfield—who began to haunt the blues lounges of the South and West Sides. There, they developed relationships with old masters such as Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, as well as rising stars of the era, such as Junior Wells and Magic Sam. These boys ended up serving as a sort of blues diaspora, through such influential white and interracial groups as the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Canned Heat, and the Rolling Stones (with whom Mandel played briefly). Then there was Bob Dylan, née Zimmerman, from Hibbing, Minnesota. Bloomfield played in particularly electrifying and original ways on Dylan's best work, most notably the still fresh album Highway 61 Revisited (the title is a reference to the main drag in the Mississippi Delta). Unlike Dylan, who pretended otherwise early in his career, the late Bloomfield was always forthcoming about his Jewishness; in the 1967 film Festival (about the Newport Folk Festival), he distinguished his own life from those of blues musicians by bringing up his bar mitzvah and comfortable upbringing.
Born in Chicago complements this focus on these specific musicians with the story of Chess Records, the family enterprise of the Polish-born brothers Leonard and Phil Chess. They recorded Waters and Wolf, Otis Rush, Etta James, Sonny Boy Williamson, Little Walter, and blues-influenced rock 'n' roll pioneers Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. Leonard Chess's son Marshall—who hilariously recalls first meeting his New Trier High School classmate Mike Bloomfield when the latter complimented him on the style of his pants—serves as the film's de facto narrator.
It's worth considering why Jews have been so much involved in all this—in both business and the music itself. For the Chess Brothers were not the only Jewish owners of independent record labels specializing in what is today celebrated as American "roots music." Art Rupe of Specialty Records recorded Little Richard and Sam Cooke; Syd Nathan of King Records recorded James Brown, as well as a host of country greats including George Jones on his companion label, Starday. (And both made some of the greatest gospel-music recordings.) The easy answer, of course, involves some common bond of injustice and oppression.
Marshall Chess himself offers a version of this view in a piece about the movie in the New York Times. "I think there's something in the pain of the blues, something deep, that touches something ancient in Jewish DNA," he said. "It's not easy to put into words, maybe because it's beyond words, but it's a true thing. When I stand next to cantors, and they are really wailing, it opens that same thing, some similarity that connects. Etta James, now she could sing like a cantor."
One can well understand why Chess would feel compelled to place his family's staggering library of recorded music in that sort of context. But he leads us in a much more fruitful direction in the film itself, when he confesses that, as a young man, he had simply thought of Chess Records as a family enterprise. As he put it in a 2008 interview with the British music magazine Clash: "You know, if your dad owns a grocery store you know about apples and oranges as you're growing up but in my case I was just around this music, I didn't realize it was anything different or special, it was something I was used to and all the characters and people that were involved in it."
His father and uncle, in other words, set out to make a living—and in the process captured and popularized what has come to be viewed as a significant American art form. There is much to ponder in this. In general, small businessmen like the Chess Brothers, haunting South Side dives for talent, are not among those—whether scientists, physicians, or writers—whom Jews have traditionally celebrated. Mordecai Richler captured well the disdain felt by the small-business Jew in his novel The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz, in which the entrepreneur hero clashes with a more refined uncle who compares his hustling nephew unfavorably with his doctor-in-training brother; for his part, Duddy sees his uncle's pretensions to socialism as part of a deep discomfort and embarrassment with open capitalist ambition.
And yet from the brew of wheeling, dealing, and making a buck came Chess Records. Without the benefit of grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, Chess managed to make records without which the "discovery" of the blues by upper-middle-class whites would not have been possible. The Chess Brothers were struggling to find economic value in what others overlooked. To do so—and this is crucial—they had to understand, deeply, a culture not their own. One can see them as anthropologists without portfolios—not only learning about blues but also finding ways to figure out who was good and who was not. They did this not to create critical distinctions but to make hit records.
Not surprisingly, one can find unattractive websites that denounce all this as Jewish exploitation of the suffering underclass. That is nonsense. What Chess Records and others did was to create value from what might otherwise have been obscure and overlooked. It turns out that the skills associated with trade—understanding products and markets—are far from unrelated to the methods of the scholar. It's only a few short steps from junkman to antiques dealer to museum curator. Are the Chess Brothers utterly unrelated to Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, the Paris gallery owner among the first to recognize the importance of Cubism (and to buy Picassos)? Kahnweiler, a Mannheim-born German Jew, had been groomed for the family stock-exchange business. Picasso, neither well-known nor well-off when Kahnweiler discovered him, would observe, "What would have become of us if Kahnweiler hadn't had a business sense?" It's all a good deal higher-brow than Chess Records—but without the Chess Brothers, celebrated American musicians would have probably died broke and obscure, and the Rolling Stones would have had to find another name.
It is not a surprise that successful Jewish businessmen often become great collectors, at times specializing in the work of cultures not their own. Commerce can call on the same habits of mind required for the aesthetic appreciation. The Hare with Amber Eyes, Edmund de Waal's bestselling memoir of Vienna's Ephrussi family, centers on the fate of the family's prized collection of 17th-century Japanese netsuke—tiny, sculptural belt-ties for traditional kimonos—in the wake of the Nazi occupation. To collect such objects in the first place, the Euphrussis had to value art and understand a culture that could hardly be less European, or less Jewish.
Indeed, one of the largest surviving collections of netsuke can be found today in the Jewish Museum in Cape Town, South Africa—a bequest to the museum of Isaac Kaplan, whose family founded the Cape Gate Fence and Wire Works to sell gates and benches in the polyglot Cape Town region. Kaplan, to improve his understanding of netsuke, learned to read and write Japanese. None of this would have been possible without selling fences to farmers, just as the preservation and popularization of blues music would not have been possible without a Jewish family wanting to make a buck on some vinyl.

Sync CAM with FreeBSD using lockmgr locks instead of mutexes. Note: This is mostly a code sync with FreeBSD which improves stability in addition to the items listed below. This provides a framework for releasing the mplock, but for now it's still there. Add an xpt_print function to reduce most of the xpt_print_path/printf pairs. Convert the core code to use it. Initial cut at Basic Domain Validation. Make cam_xpt's pronouncements match camcontrol (Tagged -> Command) Queueing. Pay attention to return value from xpt_bus_register in xpt_init. Add an xpt_rescan function and a thread that will field rescan requests. The purpose of this is to allow a SIM (or other entities) to request a bus rescan and have it then fielded in a different (process) context from the caller. Check the return value from cam_periph_acquire. Drop the periph/sim lock when calling disk_destroy(). Drop the topology lock before calling the periph oninvalidate and dtor vectors. For the XPT_SASYNC_CB operation, only decouple the broadcast to the bus and device lists instead of decoupling the whole operation. This avoids problems with SIMs going away. Split the camisr into per-SIM done queues. This optimizes the locking a little bit and allows for direct dispatch of the doneq from certain contexts that would otherwise face recursive locking problems. Zero the CCBs when mallocing them. Only schedule the xpt_finishconfig_task once. Eliminate the use of M_TEMP. Add a helper function for registering async callbacks.

Instead, first query the list of VPD pages it does support, and only query the serial number if it's supported, else silently move on. This eliminates a lot of noise during verbose booting, and will likely eliminate the need for most NOSERIAL quirks. Reduce diffs from FreeBSD. Obtained-from: FreeBSD
Make CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE default. As previously mentioned, this makes a huge performance difference for one of my disks, and future work depends on this change. Obtained-from: FreeBSD
Update the list of USB device IDs for umass(4) and needed routines. Reviewed-by: hasso@ Taken-from: FreeBSD
Pay attention to the timeout value passed down by the upper layer. This fix makes USB CD/DVD writers work. Obtained-from: NetBSD via FreeBSD
Make NO_GETMAXLUN quirk really do something useful. Obtained-from: FreeBSD
When attached to a high-speed device, report a more appropriate base transfer speed to CAM. The actual value used (40MB/s) is fairly arbitrary, but assumes the same 33% overhead as was implied by the 1MB/s figure we used for USB1 devices. Obtained-from: FreeBSD
Pass all ATAPI commands through. Fixes detecting capabilities of DVD writers. Obtained-from: FreeBSD with modifications.
Fixes for CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE. This commit is taken from a FreeBSD changeset, and is not intended to be comprehensive. Some drivers will still not compile/work with the CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE option, but this opens the door for wider testing. Obtained-from: FreeBSD
Kill devinfo handling in drivers, set device description in one place - usbd_probe_and_attach() and let generic device code to output descriptions. Obtained-from: FreeBSD with modifications
Nuke usbdevs and references to it.
Kill usage of USB_VENDOR_FOO and USB_PRODUCT_BAR defines mostly using two methods: - USB_DEVICE(vendor_id, product_id) macro. - Using C99 structure initialisers. While at it, kill all custom "vendor and product id pair" structures and custom walkthrough methods for these structures.
Nuke USB_DECLARE_DRIVER and USB_DECLARE_DRIVER_INIT macros.
Nuke USB_MATCH*, USB_ATTACH* and USB_DETACH* macros.
Nuke SIMPLEQ_* and logprintf.
Nuke device_ptr_t, USBBASEDEVICE, USBDEVNAME(), USBDEVUNIT(), USBGETSOFTC(), USBDEVPTRNAME() and Static with help from sed(1).
Nuke the code specific to NetBSD/OpenBSD/FreeBSD at first. I doubt anyone will update these pieces and I don't intend to review macros for all platforms. There is the chance though that I might kill something which should stay in the code in form "TODO: port it to DF". So, please review and kick me.
xpt_bus_deregister() never returns 0, don't test for it. Assert that the sim is attached if a backend sim function is called, because cam_sim_free() now replaces the functions when the sim is detached.
Refuse to poll a detached sim.

Cleanup missing and duplicate defines from the last commit, rename an entry in umass to conform. Reported-by: "Alexander \"alxl\" Lobachov" <email@example.com>
When a umass storage device is unplugged there might be pending requests which either fail or wind up in limbo. The state machine will attempt to issue a BBB RESET, but since this does not occur on our bulk or interrupt pipes simply aborting the pipes is not sufficient to ensure that all of our xfer requests have been idled. We must also wait for any in-progress RESET's to complete, which is accomplished by testing sc->transfer_state. Otherwise we may wind up freeing an active xfer request and blow up.
timeout/untimeout ==> callout_*
When detaching UMASS, abort all the pipes before detaching the sim. Note sim detachment path is: umass_cam_detach_sim -> xpt_bus_deregister -> cam_sim_free. If there is anything pending as of the cam_sim_free() bad things will happen.
Do some M_WAITOK<->M_INTWAIT cleanups. Code entered from userland, such as device open and device ioctl, generally use M_WAITOK, while low level structures such as the capacity structure are allocated using M_INTWAIT.
The cam_sim structure was being deallocated unconditionally by device driver detach routines. The problem with this is that part of the CAM bus structure may still be active (for example, with pending timeout()'s), and even though the bus, target, and device is freed, since the sim IS freed any accesses through the sim will hit 0xdeadc0de. This case most often occurs with USB UMASS devices. The CAM_XPT and CAM_SIM layer has been revamped. CAM_DEV_UNCONFIGURED is now accounted for in the device->refcount, and the cam_sim structure is now ref-counted as well. Additionally, the cam_simq* code which handles the device queues has been revamped to refcount as well, so shared device queues (raid and multi-channel devices) are not free()'d before all references have gone away. scsi_low free'd its cam_sim twice. Fixed. USB was improperly using M_NOWAIT. All M_NOWAIT instances have been renamed to M_INTWAIT.
Actively manage cam rescan timeouts in the usb subsystem. This does not fix any known issues but it should make things a bit more robust.
Add defined(__FreeBSD__) and defined(__DragonFly__) where appropiriate.
Bring in the entire FreeBSD-5 USB infrastructure. As of this commit my USB camera, Hard Drive, Mouse, and Sony memory key all work and I can even unplug and replug them in without crashing the port. Not all drivers and subsystems compile as of this commit, but the ones that do not are very close.
Synchronize the USB, CAM, and TASKQUEUE subsystems with FreeBSD RELENG_4. Also update the $FreeBSD$ ids in the files to the synchronized rev numbers. This has the side effect of bringing in some additional SCSI robustness checks, bug fixes, quirk inheritance between subsystems (e.g. USB now sets PIM_NO_6_BYTE by default and CAM now understands it). This also brings in a huge amount of SCSI CD code that had been MFCd to FreeBSD-4 from FreeBSD-5.
Misc cleanups to take care of GCC3.x warnings. Missing 'U' and 'LL' postfixes on large unsigned or 64 bit constants, non-storage structural declarations embedded in structures, deprecated use of __FUNCTION__, missing 'break' statements in the last switch case, goto label ops where the label occurs just before an end-brace (many of which appear to be fixable with 'break' or 'continue' instead and existed simply due to programmer-paranoia), garbage data in #endif lines that was not commented out. GCC3 also caught some argument count issues in kernel printfs. Many of these (obvious) fixes are similar to or copied from 5.x. Also fix a few other minor issues such as certain drivers declaring a proc pointer instead of a thread pointer. Move -ffreestanding from CWARNFLAGS to CFLAGS. It doesn't belong in CWARNFLAGS.
kernel tree reorganization stage 1: Major cvs repository work (not logged as commits) plus a major reworking of the #include's to accomodate the relocations. * CVS repository files manually moved. Old directories left intact and empty (temporary). * Reorganize all filesystems into vfs/, most devices into dev/, sub-divide devices by function. * Begin to move device-specific architecture files to the device subdirs rather then throwing them all into, e.g. i386/include * Reorganize files related to system busses, placing the related code in a new bus/ directory. Also move cam to bus/cam though this may not have been the best idea in retrospect. * Reorganize emulation code and place it in a new emulation/ directory. * Remove the -I- compiler option in order to allow #include file localization, rename all config generated X.h files to use_X.h to clean up the conflicts. * Remove /usr/src/include (or /usr/include) dependancies during the kernel build, beyond what is normally needed to compile helper programs. * Make config create 'machine' softlinks for architecture specific directories outside of the standard <arch>/include. * Bump the config rev. WARNING! after this commit /usr/include and /usr/src/sys/compile/* should be regenerated from scratch.
Add the DragonFly cvs id and perform general cleanups on cvs/rcs/sccs ids. Most ids have been removed from !lint sections and moved into comment sections.

MOUNT VERNON, VA – Mount Vernon, home of America's first 'spymaster-in-chief', George Washington, offers new 18th-century spy programs inspired by AMC's new Revolutionary War spy television show "Turn" beginning April 5. Delve into the 18th century world of double agents, invisible ink, and coded messages during "Spy Training at Mount Vernon", but beware – you never know who might be a British spy! Learn about Revolutionary War concealment codes and work to decode a message from your fellow patriots. A select number of guests will have the chance to write a message in Washington's preferred concealment method, invisible ink! Accept your first "Spy Training at Mount Vernon" mission on Saturdays and Sundays only at 3 p.m. through June 1. Capacity is limited for the "Spy Training at Mount Vernon."
In "Mount Vernon Spymaster Adventure", visitors ages 10 and above use a self-guided map to navigate the estate using clues to solve the identity of Agent 355. It is September 11, 1781, and Major Benjamin Tallmadge, an aide to Washington and the head of the Culper Spy Ring in New York City, must send a coded message to one of his spies. Writing under the name John Bolton, Major Tallmadge needs your help to code a letter to Agent 355. Discover the identity of Agent 355 and take home a prize (while supplies last). The self-guided "Mount Vernon Spymaster Adventure" map is available at Mount Vernon's Ford Orientation Center.
General Washington took his role as spymaster in chief quite seriously, laying the groundwork for today's complex intelligence community and recognizing that civilian observation, mobilization and insight was just as important as military might. Without this foresight, the outcome of the Revolutionary War might have been quite different. The war for independence from Great Britain was not just one of battles and firearms, it was one of intelligence. As one defeated British intelligence officer is often quoted as saying, "Washington did not really outfight the British. He simply out-spied us."
From April 5 through June 1, both programs "Spy Training at Mount Vernon" and "Mount Vernon Spymaster Adventure" map are included in admission. To learn more about these programs, the Culper gang, and how Washington used espionage to defeat the British, please visit MountVernon.org/Spy.

LETTER: Hiring search agency sends wrong message
Apr. 03, 2013 @ 05:00 AM
To the Editor:
It looks like the Lee County School Board is ready and willing to spend several thousand dollars to hire an external search committee to scour the country for a new school superintendent.
This is a slap in the face to all qualified educators currently serving in the local school system. The message that it is sending to them is, "You are good enough to follow, but not good enough to lead."

Germany's Tandem Communications and Ridley and Tony Scott's Scott Free have released the first cast photo from their upcoming miniseries Labyrinth. Tandem and Scott Free are the team behind the multi-Emmy nominated The Pillars of the Earth
The grip-and-grin shot shows Oscar-winner John Hurt alongside executive producers Ridley Scott and Tandem's Tim Halkin, together with Kate Mosse, author of the best-selling thriller on which the 4-hour miniseries is based. Mosse's tale is an adventures story set in modern and medieval France which centres on two women's search for the holy grail. Delivery is set for late summer 2012. Germany's Sat.1, Channel Four in the U.K., France's M6, Spain's Quatro and ORF in Austria have pre-bought the show. NBC Universal Home Entertainment and Koch Media have certain U.S. home entertainment rights. So far, there is no U.S. broadcaster attached to the series.
Other talent on location at the Labyrinth set in the Carcassonne countryside in the south of France includes director Christopher Smith; actress Vanessa Kirby, who plays Alice Tanner; Captain America's Sebastian Stan, who plays Will and Jessica Brown-Findlay of Downton Abbey who plays Alais Pelletier du Mas.
Among the behind-the-scenes talent squeezing into the shot is screenwriter Adrian Hodges, casting director Priscilla John, Sat.1 television executive Thomas von Hennet, executive producer Liza Marshall and producer Moritz Polter.
Also on the Labyrinth cast, though not in the photo, are Harry Potter alumnus Tom Felton, Game of Thrones actor Emun Elliott and Merlin actress Katie McGrath.

Some of the players N.C. State coach Mark Gottfried will be counting on this season rolled into the Durham School of the Arts gym Tuesday night as the S.J.G. Greater NC Pro-Am resumed after a week off for the Fourth of July.
A handful of Wolfpack players including top recruit Anthony "Cat" Barber, a 6-foot-2 guard, incoming 6-9 freshman forward Kyle Washington and Alabama junior transfer guard Trevor Lacey came through the door togther but couldn't play as a group.
A new NCAA rule limits to two the number of players from a particular college on each pro-am team, league compliance director and co-founder Chuck Jones said.
This is the sixth season of the pro-am, a summer league that includes professional, college and now high school players.
Pro-am teams always have included just two returning players from a particular college, yet those pro-am teams had been allowed to be rounded out with that same college's incoming freshmen and transfers but no longer, Jones said.
"I wish we didn't have to do that," pro-am co-founder and NBA veteran Jerry Stackhouse said, preferring to keep a college team's players together during the summer league. "It makes the game more exciting. It kind of gives them an identity, gives the team an identity as an N.C. State team, a Duke team or a Carolina team.
"It is what it is. We'll work around it."
No players from Duke or North Carolina played on Tuesday. UNC's Leslie McDonald was in the gym for opening night on June 27, but he didn't suit up for any floor time.
Some N.C. Central players were in the gym on Tuesday but didn't play. Among them were Emanuel Chapman and Jay Copeland, who is injured and was wearing a walking boot.
The pro-am since its inception had been played at NCCU, which meant high school players could not participate, the NCAA viewing the venue as a recruiting advantage for the university that was transitioning to Division I when the league launched.
Pro-am organizers moving the summer league to DSA opened the door to high school players, creating momentum toward getting to the heart and soul of what the league's founders had in mind from the very beginning.
Jones, Stackhouse and co-founder Donyell Bryant, childhood buddies from Kinston, envisioned a league wherein the older players would mentor the younger ones.
"It's a lot of talent, man," Stackhouse said, in the bleachers checking out the high school players who were finding their way out there with the college guys. "It's good for them just to get out there and bump and grind with some of the older, mature players. I think it does wonders for their game."
Moving from the physicality of the high school game to that of college ball requires a learning curve, Stackhouse said.
"A lot of times you don't get that until college," Stackhouse said. "That's why there's an adjustment for high school guys going to college."
Southern High School guard Amari Hamilton played on Tuesday and said the game was faster and had more bumping than what he's used to at the prep level.
"It's a little more physical," Hamilton said.
Southern High big man Isaiah Maurice looked more confident and stronger than he did last season in the PAC-6. He credited his trainer, Darryl Harris. Southern coach Kendrick Hall said he's been trying to get Maurice to fall in love with the weight room.
Stackhouse said he's been running up and down the court elsewhere since the NBA season ended. He'll keep busy as first vice president of the NBA Players Association but said there's some more ball in him should an NBA squad need a veteran to fill out the roster.
"If they're looking for an old guy, I'm still available," Stackhouse said.

Freshman Alex Brinker takes to the court tomorrow for singles and doubles play.
Oct. 18, 2012
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Xavier women's tennis team started off the 2012 USTA/ITA Regional Championships with two individuals competing for a chance to make the main draw, which begins Friday.
Senior Kally Alkire was one win shy of reaching the main draw while her teammate Andrea Wolf lost her opening match at the Basham Courts at the Schwartz Tennis Center on Purdue University's campus.
Alkire defeated (3-6, 7-6 (6-2), 6-3) Ball State's Kristel Sanders in a back-and-forth match. After losing the first set Alkire stormed back to win the second set on a tiebreaker and captured the final set. She then lost to Chattanooga's Jovana Pecovski in straight sets (6-4, 6-3) and was eliminated from the tournament.
Wolf lost her opening set to Purdue's Claudia Escribens, 7-6 (7-6), 6-2.
The doubles team of Wolf and sophomore Daniella Patton also lost. The duo dropped an 8-5 decision to Kelsey Coots and Katie Polk from Chattanooga.
Xavier returns to the court on Friday with Patton and freshman Alex Brinker taking part in the 64-player main draw. Patton plays Middle Tennessee State's Nayara Moraes at 1:15 p.m. and Brinker faces Vanderbilt's Marie Casares.
Brinker will also play a doubles match with Alkire against Escribens and Krisztina Kapitany from host school Purdue.
Kally Alkire (Xavier) def. Kristel Sanders (Ball St.) 3-6, 7-6 (7-2), 6-3

Airbus has laid out preliminary details of a gradual migration plan between production of its baseline A320 twinjet and the re-engined A320neo, which will become available from early 2016.
The A320 is to undertake a two-stage evolution, initially being produced with "sharklet" winglets from 2012 before a further development will lead to the A320neo coming off the line four years later.
Airbus says that the A320neo will have an increase of around 400kg (880lb) in weight compared with a sharklet-equipped A320 in 2016.
This increase will be the result of strengthening the centre wing box and the wing itself - which together will account for 200kg - plus possible changes to the landing gear, which the airframer has yet to finalise, which it says would amount to less than 100kg.
Airbus adds that the remaining difference will be taken up by a little over 100kg in modifications to the airframe and systems.
But while Airbus intends service entry in early 2016 - a timescale which has not changed, although the airframer says it would like the twinjet to be available to customers "as soon as possible" - it will also still be producing baseline A320s under its current backlog.
"Customers taking delivery of an A320 in 2016 will not be taking delivery of the reinforced airframe that the customers taking delivery of an A320neo in 2016 will get," says Airbus.
"We plan that the [A320neo] ramp-up and today's A320 ramp-down will be a continuous market-driven process, albeit in steps."
Airbus will gradually migrate production tooling and jigs from the A320 family to the A320neo family.
"To ensure the most efficient production we may choose to standardise certain individual parts on the A320neo standard from a point in time, if the weight impact is insignificant."
Airbus says the A320neo is "95% common" with the current A320, but has already insisted that it will not be entertaining order conversions between them.
Sharklet winglets will become available on the A321 and A319 from 2013 while production of the A321neo and A319neo will follow in six-month stages behind the A320neo.

BM - Nothing yesterday. I meant to take Vit C this morning to see if I could coax things along but forgot. Not feeling too uncomfortable at least. [edit] Type 2, late afternoon. [edit] Type 5, evening, after mag citrate w/ lunch & after dinner, plus some sips of kombucha. [edit] Type 6 late evening.
I had pumpkin ice cream last night (one scoop) and woke up with a pimple on my chin. But I did not seem to have any digestive issues from it, oddly enough. Not even gas.
Hulky helped me with the new shower head last night. Apparently, it did need the adapter, it just didn't look like it. Oh well, fresh plumber's tape all around! My hair feels so much softer today . If the doggy shampoo alone doesn't cut it as my hair grows out, I'll start experimenting with baking soda and ACV rinses again. I think my scalp might need some extra attention initially. It's been kind of itchy and pretty grimy lately. I can really feel the difference in the water just last night though. I'll work on getting the shower liners through the wash one at a time this week to get the scum & water spots off. I'll probably splash some white vinegar into the machine. I hope that helps. It'll be interesting to see how clean they stay from here on out.
It's a very foggy morning. Makes me want to cozy up somewhere. I'm going to swing by the new Whole Foods on my way home from work (realized it's partially on the way home, less inconvenient than the one in the mall area anyway) and grab some carrots, an onion, and a chicken for more soup. I'm not sure if I want to keep the celery & onion in the soup this time or if I should stick with just carrots for now. I guess just carrots until I learn more from my stupid gut.
I had time this morning to eat some eggs, but not to use the neti pot. I am definitely a bit phlegmy from the ice cream. I'll have some KE tea to try and clear things up a little soon. I was pretty tired this morning, but I did go to bed later than intended. Not as tired as last week.
I'm on to my second bottle of kombucha, just a few sips a day. I think I'll take mag citrate again today, with the goal of being strict with my diet for the week so I can actually troubleshoot my gut instead of just playing catch-up. I can't tell what was causing the diarrhea last week and I ate poorly a few times over the weekend so that's a factor too. I need to eliminate those factors.
My back, shoulders, and neck are still pretty sore.
My nose still hurts from when somebody kicked it at the concert Friday night. I'd be concerned, but it doesn't hurt that much and only when I rub it.

May 2nd 1854
My Dear Sister,
I chanced to be at the Hotel yesterday when Doctor White was passing through town and was much pleased at meeting him; it served to some extent the purpose of seeing you; as I thereby had an opportunity of seeing someone who had recently been with my sister. He told me that you had written to me and after the Post Office had opened I received your letter. The mass1 of which you speak I would send to you, had the Doctor not have procured it before seeing me, he told me that he had found it in the shop of some doctor as he was coming to Lexington. Should you wish any more at any time, let me know and I will procure it for you. I do hope that little Tom is free from that dreadful disease the scrofula.2 I trust that your apprehensions may prove groundless but it always best to be wide awake, and not permit ourselves to be taken by surprise.
I hope that your health may continue to improve. The poor little Babe what can be the matter with it? I suppose that it is difficult to decide in so young a child, but let us hope for the better while we continue to be prepared for the worst.
Ellie's face has not yet entirely recovered; but I am of the opinion that time will effect a perfect restoration.
Remember me very kindly to Mr. A. and to all enquiring relatives and friends. Tell Thomas and the other children, that I love them, and that they must be good children. Ellie joins me in love to you all.
Your brother, Thomas P.S. Tell Thomas that I am sorry that he is sick, and that I wish that I could do something for him. T.J.J.

Need two great Tel Aviv restaurants & two Jerusalem ones -mixed group 13-80!
We are doing a family trip with 3 generations next week and have tow nights free in Jerusalem & Tel Aviv.
Our group is mixed, a few 40 yr olds, a 13 year old and some 70-80 year olds. So we are looking for great places that everyone will be comfortable in. we don't mind trendy but we don't need a scene. The 13 year old is kind of picky, I guess we can't worry about that! Price an be high or low.
What are your musts? We love a local feeling, not too touristy, don't mind trendy but are not looking for places that seem too precious.
Thanks in advance! We are up for anything. We live in NYC so we have no shortage of great places, so i guess we would love local flavor or fabulous fun places. we will probably eat at 8:00pm most nights if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance!
re: cresyd
Hi, we do have one kosher member though not glatt kosher so they will eat fish or veggie. I should have mentioned, seven in our group. None of speak hebrew so if they can translate great, if not we'll be lost. Thanks in advance!
re: ellendia
So the restaurants don't need to be kosher? If so, I believe on my list only two cafes qualify.....
In Jerusalem you won't really find any language problems in regards to menus - but in Tel Aviv that can vary. Regarding Jerusalem suggestions, my favorite place to suggest would be Mona. Great usage of local ingredients - not kosher, but they do have fish/vegetarian dishes. Others prefer Machene Yehuda - but given the size of your party (and should any of the older guests have any difficulty hearing) - Mona is roomier and not as noisy. And both restaurants are owned by the same group, so I wouldn't suggest going to both. The restaurant is also in the Bezalel Art Academy, so the building is interesting and has a student art gallery attached.
Other places that I really like in Jerusalem and would be good for a party that size include Culinary Workshop (off of Dereh Hevron) and Lavan (restaurant in the Jerusalem Cinematheque). Lavan and Colony (restaurant off of Dereh Beit Lehem also close to Culinary Workshop) I believe are (or were) owned by the same people - and while I've always preferred the food at Lavan and the view of the Sultan's Swimming Pool, others prefer the atmosphere at the Colony.
With 7 people, the classic Israeli café experience might be a bit tricky/tight squeeze even for dinner, but my favorites in Jerusalem are Timol Shilshom and Kadosh (both in the city center). Timol Shilshom might take reservations but I'm pretty sure that Kadosh does not. Kadosh in addition to having lovely meals has really excellent desserts. (both of these options do have kosher certification) If you're ok with a really tight squeeze - then my absolute favorite café is in the shuk, Café Mizrachi. But for 7 people that might really be pushing it.
Another idea that I don't necessarily recommend for the food (so a good idea if you've had a really heavy lunch/aren't super hungry) is the rooftop of the Notre Dame wine bar. The food is good, if a little over priced - but the view over the Old City is absolutely amazing. If it's a place to go for a pre-dinner drink, it's just lovely. The rooftop bar at the Mamila Hotel is also nice, but the view isn't as good (IMO) as the Notre Dame rooftop. And should you eat anything, the Notre Dame is better.
re: cresyd
This is all so amazing, thanks so much!!! I really appreciate all of the time you took to put this info together! I appreciate your feedback regarding the large party as well! Thank you!
re: ellendia
Quick point - with a party of 7, I'd plan on reservations for everywhere with the exception of the Notre Dame rooftop bar (should you chose to go). I don't believe Kadosh or Café Mizrachi take reservations, but as they're more hot spots for breakfast/lunch - around 8pm it might not be as difficult.
Mona definitely requires reservations regardless of what night of the week you go, and I'd err on the side of having reservations for any other place I mentioned. The places I mentioned are all fairly roomy and typically have more than one table that can accommodate 7 - but it's a gamble I wouldn't take.
You won't have any trouble finding menus and explanations in English. Please note that Thursday evening is when Jerusalemites go out to eat, so you will need a reservation. In fact, with your group you should have reservations in any case. The young and the old members of the group wouldn't be happy sitting around at the bar--if there is one--and waiting for a table.
One place that we have enjoyed in Tel Aviv, and that can accomodate your group, is Bertie's. Not cheap, but good. Another is Habasta. Toto and Shila are both excellent, but both are much too noisy. Hatzela Hashminit (the 8th rib) is interesting.
It is much more difficult to eat well in Jerusalem. Some people like a steakhouse called The Colony, but I've never eaten there. I have enjoyed Chakra, but it's not up to Tel Avivian standards. What I like best in Jerusalem is what they call a "steakiya", a simple place that serves good Middle Eastern salads and grilled meats. Two good ones are Hashipudia and Fortuna, across the street from each other in Machane Yehuda.
re: bcc
I absolutely love Habasta, but are you sure it's the right choice for this group? The space is small and I thought that the seating was a bit uncomfortable for my much-less-than-80-year-old body. The food is excellent, though, and with a little care, my then 10-year-old enjoyed her meal, as did the other young teen seated outside.
re: rockycat
Now that the enclosed porch is non-smoking, I thought it would be ok. But you are right; the tables and chairs are not the most comfortable.
And if the OP and family choose Bertie, they should request the enclosed porch, which is quieter than the inside room.
I would add Steakiat Hatzot to the list in Jerusalem. It is not gourmet but it is a great way to taste local Israeli food, grilled meats and lots of fresh salads. It is kosher and suitable for all ages. It is also near the Jerusalem market and popular with locals and tourists. Another place that is more high end and is more geared to tourists than locals is the Rooftop restaurant of Mamilla hotel. A very interesting menu (happens to be kosher) and great views of the old city.
For Tel Aviv I agree with the recommendation of Shila but it can be noisy but Mizlala by Meir Adoni is delicious and not as noisy. The dishes are very creative with a strong Israeli influence.
Benny Hadayag is a fish restaurant in the Tel Aviv port and is a great setting if your family like fish. The fish is incredibly fresh and the selection of salads is diverse and tasty.
Happy to give further advice if you have specific questions.
re: debs76
Thank you! this is all really helpful.
I think there are some good choices here!
re: ellendia
In Jerusalem, I'd recommend one of the restaurants at The First Station (I heard people refer to it just as "The Station"), a collection of shops and restaurants built at an old train station. Our group of twelve, including three aged 73-82, all enjoyed it and were accommodated well. We ate as a group at Adom, and some tried a couple of the other spots on other nights. There is a buzz to the plaza that would be of interest to your teen and not too overwhelming or too far to walk for your older members.
re: GourmetWednesday
Great rec! We ate at Landwer Cafe twice (close to our hotel) and had a pizza that would rank in our top pizzas. Talked to others who loved the pastas.

when you walk face first, mouth open into someone elses ass cloud. Even though you can taste it, it's definitely not desert.
I just had a taste of John's fart cake and to be honest, it was slightly better than a payday candy bar.

A cake being farted on by women. For example, there are lots of fart fetishists who fantasize about women doing so, and some videos on line.
Lady Eve positioned her gassy butt towards the cake and produced this fart cake.

A cake that has been corrupted by a perverted woman who indulges above all in sitting in cakes and releasing her stinky methane ass juice into it. Remarkably produced by women who have fart fetish.
Q: What kind of cake is it?
A: It's a fart cake. Someone has just passed gas on it.

Decorating your home with vases
Vases are one of the most overlooked decorating pieces that easily bring a room together by adding an elegant decorative touch. The best part about decorating your home with vases is that you don't always need to have fresh flowers on hand to put in them. We've put together a list of our favorite decorative vases to put in your home and included some great vase filler ideas.
Tall floor vase
This vase design is a great statement piece that looks lovely in an unused corner of the room or on an accent table in an entrance way. If you are decorating on a budget you can definitely find a lot of reasonably priced cheap floor vases. To balance the big vase's height, fill this vase with some twisted and curly willow branches. If you want a soft glow, put in some lighted branches. You can also mix in some peacock feathers for added color.
Fish bowl vase
This is a cool vase because the oversized nature of the round shape gives you a lot of creative freedom to decoratively fill it the way you want. Particularly if this is a clear glass fish bowl vase you can fill it with gemstone pebbles on the bottom and then arrange a few Calla Lilly flowers inside to fill out the vase's circular shape, which makes for a beautiful centerpiece. And interestingly keeping the flowers inside the vase actually preserves them for longer. However, if you do not want to go down the flower route you can fill it with sea shells and some sand for a beach feel. Or you can store your fun costume jewelry that you don't wear very often. Really any kind of abandoned jewelry, like earrings that you lost one of, or buttons and beads look chic and cool arranged randomly in a glass vase.
Porcelain vase
These vases have a great antique feel because they are typically characterized by a hand painted finish. Whether it is an oriental design or a floral motif, these vases also look great with willow branches coming out. And depending on the lighted branches, they can even look similar to cherry blossom branches, which complement the oriental design.

Genre: Science fiction
Publisher: Open Road Media
The blackcollars—an elite, genetically enhanced fighting force—may be humanity's only hope
Decades after a successful invasion of Earth and the Terran Democratic Empire by the Ryqril—hostile, leathery-skinned aliens—resistance fighter Allen Caine is training for an undercover mission. He will assume the identity of an aide to the senate—part of the government that colludes with the invaders. But when the mission begins earlier than planned, Caine finds himself stuck on the off-planet outpost of Plinry with no idea of what awaits. He's responsible for the most important mission undertaken by the resistance in twenty years, and when the operation goes awry, Caine's only hope is to locate Plinry's so-called blackcollars—the elusive, martial arts–trained guerilla force whose wartime resistance efforts are legendary. With his life and the freedom of everyone in the TDE on the line, Caine's success will depend on whether or not he can find them. . . .
My thoughts:
I quite enjoyed this book. I'm a fan of military sci-fi, and this one didn't disappoint. The action did move a tad bit slower in the first chapter or so (slower than the rest of the book, anyway), but then it picked up speed and didn't slow down until the last page.
Which was, of course, awesome. (The more action, the better! Hehe.)
This book had great characters. For a book with a large cast, none of the characters — except for maybe Argent's Prefect Apostoleris — were stock characters. They all had some sort of depth and dimension, which made the book that much more interesting to read. I actually wanted to know what the characters were going to do next. I wanted to know how they were going to face the next obstacle/bad guy/traitor. Simply put, I cared about these people.
Comsquare Lathe was one heck of an enigma. Even though the story jumps POV from Allen Caine to other members of the blackcollar squad, we never really learn that much about Lathe. He's not an ogre, but like Shrek, this guy's like an onion with layers.
Okay, so none of them were particularly easy to figure out. But that was part of the reason why they were so interesting to read about. After all, nobody wants stock characters.
I thought this book was just as much about the characters — the blackcollars, the Argentian rebels, Caine himself — as it was about the action that surrounded the characters. I truly enjoyed this book, and this reminded me what good military sci-fi should be like.
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
