I have dents in my cheeks. I am in my late 30s and it seems pretty early to have blepharoplasty or a cheek lift. However, I want to minimize or ideally get rid of them because they look awful and make me feel bad. A facial plastic surgeon friend told me that he didn't recommend fillers since the cheek pads are hard to augment.
What is Recommended to Get Rid of Cheek Dents?
Doctor Answers 17
Several options to correct cheek dents
There are several good options to correct depressions in your cheek. To get a great result, your surgeon should first evaluate what the causes of the dents are. If these are normal dimples, they may be filled with a dermal fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm. If these dents are from scarring or disease such as chickenpox or acne, you may be best served either with a dermal filler or by releasing the deeper fibers that are pulling the skin down.
Cheek dents
Midway in the cheek, there is a set of ligaments effectively forming a barrier to downward flow of fluid. It is the reason patients form black eyes if their eye is injured, and the reason the bruising often stops exactly at a semicircular line on the cheek.
This anatomic boundary is difficult to defeat.
For younger patients such as yourself, hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm, Restylane) work very well.
For patients with a more pronounced problem, we can perform a superficial cheeklift.
However, it would be premature to perform such a procedure in a young patient with so minimal a problem.
All you need are fillers
You don't need a lower blepharoplasty. You have some specific volume deficits that are a family trait showing up early in you. Well done Restylane by an experienced plastic surgeon will help you avoid surgery for years and will give you a rejuvenated look that eyelid surgery in your case isn't as capable of doing.

You will need lower blephoplasty and cheek lift
Looks like you have fat pockets under your eyes and you have two options
1)filler to camafloge the dent
2) lower blepoplasty ( you will need check lift with this and if you get only fat pocket removal you will have the same issue down the road)
The cheek lift with lower eyelift is some thing that not all plastic surgeons offer.
Fillers will work but must be injected deep
I would highly recommend fillers for this specific problem. The cause of these dents is a mild descent of midface tissues around the deep bands attaching the dermis to the bone (Osteocutaneous ligaments). The droopy tissues pull on these deep bands causing these dents.
Since it is mild I would not recommend a full cheek lift but filling.
The choice of filler and technique is a very important issue. This is not similar to injection of nasolabial fold or tear trough. Injection must be done deep as these bands are not superficial. Micro fat technique is my procedure of choice but other fillers could work as well.
I hope that helps, you can view similar cases injected with fat on the practice webpage.

What's recommenede for cheek dents?
From your photos, the cheek dents would not be reduced, or effected by eyelid surgery. A cheek lift would lift all the cheek area and most likely raise the entire cheek fat pad, including the dents, upward. Your best bet, IMHO, is to place a filler like Perlane in the dent to smoothen it out. Sculptra could also be usde for a result that could last for about 2 years. If the cheeks were flat, which they do not appear to be, a cheek implant would permanently correct the dents, IMO.

Radiesse is an Excellent Treatment for Cheek Dents
The unique viscosity and elasticity of Radiesse allow it to be molded to minimize irregularities in contour. Radiesse will stimulate collagen production which then will have a nice, long lasting lifting effect for these dents. Radiesse is comprised of calcium-based microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. The gel carrier causes immediate correction and is gradually absorbed. The calcium particles act as a scaffold for new collagen formation around the microspheres. This fixes the particles in place discouraging migration. Radiesse reportedly lasts 12 to 15 months. A booster injection 3 months after the initial injection will usually prolong the duration of Radiesse for 15 to 18 months. After that Radiesse can be repeated as necessary.

Fillers for cheek dents
Fillers such as Restylane or Perlane help with filling in the dents of the cheeks. The filler works well in adding volume to the deficits of the cheeks. Make sure you go to an experienced injector that is familiar with this area that you are concerned with.
Web reference: http://www.zubowicz.com
Juvederm or Restylane good for cheek dents.
From your picture, I would say the little dents in your cheeks can be easily corrected by injecting a little Restylane or Juvederm just under the skin. The result should last at least nine months.
Radiesse or Sculptra better option for cheek depressions or 'dents'
The conservative approach for cheek depressions or 'dents' is dermal fillers. Radiesse (made of fine calcium granules) is the best short-term solution. Sculptra may be the best long-term solution as it may last 2 to 2 and 1/2 years though it may require 2-3 injections.

A time to share and serve
HUNTINGTON -- Dozens of people who filed into the Huntington City Mission's cafeteria came from different walks of life.
For some, it was substance abuse or mental illness. For others, it was the struggle of being a single parent and not making enough money to put food on the table. Then there were senior citizens who had no other place to go to eat.
But for three hours Thursday, none of that mattered. All that mattered to the small army of volunteers preparing the mission's 73rd annual Thanksgiving feast is that those who walked in the door with a craving for a home-cooked meal and the fellowship and hospitality that go along with it weren't disappointed.
It took more than 35 volunteers working behind the scenes to feed Huntington's hungry. Preparations began last week with the purchase of 44 turkeys, hundreds of pounds of potatoes and all the other trimmings. In the end, there was enough food to feed about 400 people.
Sweet Confections and several local churches chipped in by making all of the desserts for the feast, which allowed full-time staffers and volunteers at the mission to focus on the main course. Students at Ranger Elementary School in Lincoln County also added a personal touch by making place mats.
The Thanksgiving dinner is about much more than serving a meal, said Lynn Clagg, the mission's special events coordinator. It's about making guests know that they are in the company of people who care about them, she said.
"Some are blessed more than others, so those who are blessed should do whatever we can to make sure everyone has a bountiful Thanksgiving."
The Marshall University men's basketball team and staff spent the day serving meals, cleaning plates and handing out drinks at the mission. Coach Tom Herrion said his players are frustrated with the rough start to their season, so he thought it would be a valuable lesson for them to give back to the community and see that not everyone is as fortunate as they are.
"It puts it all in perspective when you see people who need a whole lot more help than you do," Herrion said. "As an athlete, you think sometimes that you're invincible. This allows us to keep ourselves grounded and appreciate what we've been given in life."
Senior forward Dennis Tinnon agreed with his coach. He said helping others was his top priority of the day because most of his extended family lives too far away to spend time with at Thanksgiving.
"It's always a blessing to be able to do things like this," Tinnon said. "Whether it's passing out food or just talking to people, it makes me happy knowing I can help them smile."
Harmond Montgomery, his wife, Rena, and the couple's four children were among the few hundred who ate at the City Mission. The Montgomerys recently lost their home in Lincoln County and have been living at the City Mission for the past three weeks.
"I'm just thankful that my family and I can have a regular Thanksgiving meal, even though we're in the position we're in," Harmond said.
The City Mission wasn't the only place where those less fortunate could eat Thursday. The Salvation Army served dinners for two hours at its 3rd Avenue location.
"We've usually done this the day before, but I thought to myself, 'some people want to celebrate Thanksgiving on the day of,' " Major Matt Riley said.
The Salvation Army received food from Forth Foods, the Huntington Area Food Bank, Walmart and community members. The organization also joined forces with Huntington Lodge 795, B'Nai Brith to hand out 200 Thanksgiving food baskets on Wednesday.

This utility application claims priority on a U.S. Provisional Application entitled "Multiple Exponential Adaptive Triage," Ser. No. 60/436,169, having a filing date of Dec. 23, 2002.
The present invention relates generally to resource management and, more particularly, to a system and method of predicting and managing the performance of one or more electronic devices.
Managing a computer system which includes a plurality of devices such as networks or servers, is of special interest to data processing or information technology personnel. Such computer systems typically include a plurality of diverse devices including memory, disks, local area network (LAN) adaptors and central processing units (CPUs) which interact in various ways to facilitate data processing applications.
As systems become larger and more complex, interactions between electronic devices become harder to define, model, and/or predict. Such systems may suffer from inefficiencies or "bottlenecks" that slow or even stop the system.
Often, the performance of a computer system or network is less than it could be because of one or more components having an inappropriate load applied thereto. Thus, it is desirable to know what changes to the system would be required in order to improve capacity of each electronic device. Further, such changes would allow the manipulation of a preset number of electronic devices instead of the system as a whole. To accomplish this, there remains a need for a system and method capable of collecting and analyzing performance data such that it may be utilized to predict future performance of individual electronic devices.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a performance management system and method capable of generating a plurality of forecasts for one or more electronic devices. The forecasts are generated from stored performance data and analyzed to determine which devices are likely to experience performance degradation within a predetermined period of time. A single forecast is chosen for further analysis such that computer modeling may be performed upon the performance data to enable the user to predict when device performance will begin to degrade. In one embodiment, graphical displays are created for devices forecasted to perform at an undesirable level within a predetermined period of time.
A more complete appreciation of the invention and many of the attendant advantages thereof will be readily obtained as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
The present invention is herein described as a method of managing one or more electronic devices and as a computer system for managing one or more electronic devices.
Referring to
In another embodiment, performance data is fed through a computer network for storage upon the storage device. In this embodiment, the data is collated and processed by a central processing unit (14) coupled to each electronic device, as well as the computer network.
In one embodiment, the processing unit (14) of the present invention is equipped with a graphic display interface (20) capable of providing graphical displays of analyzed performance data, as discussed further below.
In one embodiment, the results of analysis performed by the processing unit may be sent either to a printer (22) for the creation of hard copy reports, or electronically to one or more analysis personnel (24). In one embodiment, such analyzed information may be transmitted through one or more computer networks (18). Further, the reporting capabilities of the present invention allow this system to provide the analyst with analysis summaries. This feature of the present invention provides the analyst with an overview of one or more of the electronic devices at issue, in order to allow the analyst to make an informed decision regarding which devices require attention.
For the purposes of illustration only, in one embodiment, the present invention may be utilized to determine when to upgrade an Intel� server, such as a Compaq� Pentium II� having a quad processor running at 333 MHz. A performance data collection tool residing on the server, Best 1 for example, is capable of capturing performance data every few seconds. Data is then sent to an IBM R/S 6000 midrange server, via a local area network (LAN), where it is collected and processed. A batch job is then run, using SAS� Proc Reg for example, which appends the data into a database stored on a storage area network (SAN). The data may then be gathered from the SAN and analyzed according to the present invention using, for example, a Dell� Desktop computer having a Pentium IV� processor operating at 1.7 GHz. Capacity charts may be displayed on the computer's monitor, sent to a printer, and/or stored electronically on the SAN.
Referring to
Such statistical analysis systems are utilized by the present invention to generate a plurality of forecasts relating to the performance of one or more electronic devices. In one embodiment, the present invention is utilized to analyze one or more servers such that a plurality of forecasts may be generated for each one, as illustrated by box (28).
The present invention may utilize any number of known statistical methods, in order to generate a plurality of forecasts for each device. In one embodiment, the system (10) of the present invention generates graphical displays of each forecast for review by the user, as illustrated by box (32). In one embodiment, such displays may be used to provide the user with an overview of a device's capacity as well as fluctuations over any given period of time.
The processing unit (14) of the computer system (10) of the present invention selects a single forecast from the plurality of forecasts generated, as illustrated by box (30). In one embodiment, this is accomplished via the assignment of selection parameters by the user or analyst, as illustrated by box (34). These parameters may consist of a threshold value relating to the device data being analyzed or a predetermined time period. For example, the graphical display of
Multiple selection parameters may be assigned to enable the system to single out individual forecasts having particular attributes. For example, if the user assigns a capacity threshold of 11 SPECint95 and a planning horizon of January, 2003, the graphical display of
Data modeling for the purpose of generating forecasts, as illustrated by box (52), is well known in the art. For the purposes of the present invention, any reasonable linear or non-linear statistical model (such as a polynomial or an exponential model) may be utilized to forecast when the capacity threshold of an electronic device will be exceeded. In one embodiment, a log-linear model is utilized because it provides conservative forecasts for many electronic devices. In many cases, the resource consumption growth of an electronic device will behave in a log-linear fashion. Thus, for many electronic devices, the log-linear model provides the most accurate forecasting results.
This model takes the form of Y=AcBx, where Y is the actual capacity consumed, X is the time or date of consumption, c is the rate of exponential change, and A and B are model parameters to be estimated from the data. One may assume any value for c, or, in one embodiment, estimate the value of c from actual data. However, in this example, c is taken to be 2.71828.
In one embodiment, the forecasting procedure utilized by the present invention for this example model begins by converting the exponential model to natural logarithms, i.e., Ln Y=Ln A+Bx, and then utilizing linear regression to determine estimates of Ln A and B. In order to determine an estimate for Y, the present invention calculates eLn A+Bx by replacing Ln A and B with their respective estimates. The use of linear regression is well known in the art and is available in many statistical analysis computer packages.
For the data shown in the example of
Forecasting techniques may be applied either to peak, average, ninety-fifth percentile, minimum, or any other chosen statistic in order to provide a statistical confidence interval for each forecast. Further, the present invention may be applied to software applications executed by one or more electronic devices. In one embodiment, forecasts may be sorted by date in order to inform the user or administrator which device(s) require the most immediate attention. Further, each forecast may be reviewed and validated by one or more analysts familiar with the device at issue, as illustrated by box (50). In some cases, the analyst agrees with the forecasted data and begins an upgrade and/or adjustment of the device to prevent performance degradation. In other cases, forecasted data may be in error such that the analyst recommends that the forecast be disregarded, as illustrated by box (49).
Subsequent to the review of the selected forecasts by the analyst, the selection parameters discussed above may be adjusted according to the modeling results, as illustrated by box (54). Further, the statistical analysis methodology utilized by the present invention may be adjusted based upon the knowledge and experience of the analyst with respect to the device at issue. In one embodiment, additional statistical analysis as illustrated by box (56) is conducted utilizing adjusted selection parameters to create a subsequent graphical display for further review by the analyst, as illustrated by box (32). Different types of electronic devices may require different statistical analysis methodologies. For example, if the user desires to analyze a large system comprising a plurality of different types of devices, the planning horizon and threshold capacity would require adjustment. Further, the statistical methods utilized for each type of device may require adjustment in order to produce the most conservative forecast results. For example, a first statistical analysis method may take all of the input data into account such that each data point is weighted equally. However, a second data analysis technique may weigh the most recent data points more heavily, depending on which technique is being utilized. Thus, depending on the type of statistical analysis technique employed, the forecasted results will change accordingly.
In one embodiment, the present invention allows the user to choose from a host of statistical analysis methods complete with explanation as to what device types are most suited for each of said statistical analysis methods. Further, in one embodiment, the present invention provides the analyst with guidelines regarding the time required to upgrade/adjust various types of electronic components. This feature of the present invention allows the analyst to easily choose his or her selection parameters, thus providing the analyst or other user with enhanced efficiency and ease of use.
Further, the processing unit of the present invention is capable of determining the device type based upon the format of the data collected and stored upon the storage device, as illustrated by box (58). In one embodiment, the metadata characteristics of the performance data for each electronic device is utilized by the processing unit to determine the type of device at issue. Once the device type has been ascertained, the system is capable of automatically, or through manual direction, selecting and utilizing the most appropriate statistical analysis method and/or selection parameters suitable for the device type at issue, as illustrated by box (60). The above analysis process may then be repeated utilizing the methods/parameters best suited to the device(s) at issue.
It should be understood that the present invention is not relegated to the use of capacity data or any other particular number or type of device, as in the above example. On the contrary, the present invention may utilize any metric, or combination of metrics, such as intensities, in place of or in addition to system utilization data. For example, electronic device usage may fluctuate according to traffic and/or maintenance patterns. The present invention allows the analyst to adjust the forecasting results to compensate for peak and off-peak workload patterns, as well as maintenance or resource allocation procedures. This information may be stored on the storage device for use in conjunction with performance data collected from the device(s) during statistical analysis. Further, such information, through the display and reporting capabilities of the present invention, may assist the analyst in consolidating and/or adjusting workload or load balancing parameters.
This feature of the present invention is particularly useful when applied to a large number of electronic devices undergoing aggregate statistical analysis. Specifically, selected forecasts maybe aggregated in order to present the analyst with a performance overview of analyzed devices working in combination. This allows the analyst to conduct load balancing and/or consolidate workloads over multiple devices. The reporting capabilities described above may be utilized to provide the analyst with best and/or worst case forecasts designed to provide an overall "level of confidence". In one embodiment, this is accomplished through graphical and/or textual display of performance data.
Although the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limited sense. Various modifications of the disclosed embodiments, as well as alternative embodiments of the invention will become apparent to persons skilled in the art upon the reference to the description of the invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claims will cover such modifications that fall within the scope of the invention.

Editorial: Summit reminds us of contributions of the arts
This weekend, theater buffs in the Tri-State can enjoy several innovative local productions, ranging from a youthful take on Disney's "Little Mermaid" to an interactive murder mystery to the haunting "Dracula The Musical."
That's not counting a touring company production of "The West Side Story."
The arts calendar also includes a huge range of music from a classical recital at Marshall University to funk grooves and rock at the V Club to bluegrass at the West Virginia Pumpkin Park's new concert venue.
Meanwhile, a growing number of galleries in the region showcase the handiwork of local painters, sculptors and artisans.
To say the region is alive with the arts is an understatement.
The Huntington Museum of Art has been praised by Chairman of the National Endowment of the Humanities Jim Leach as "perhaps the finest museum in America for a city its size." Marshall University's College of Fine Arts not only provides top-flight educational opportunities but also concerts, plays and exhibitions enjoyed by residents throughout the area. The Huntington Symphony Orchestra, the Marshall Artists Series and a host of other community performance groups not only entertain us but also introduce young and old to the fine arts in a live setting.
The historic Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center in Huntington and Paramount Theater in Ashland provide remarkable venues for both local and touring shows, and The Big Sandy Superstore Arena hosts top national concert tours.
Marshall's plans to move its visual arts program into the former Stone and Thomas department store building in the heart of downtown Huntington will only raise the profile of the arts in Huntington.
This vibrant scene is not only great for area residents, but it also adds to regional tourism and the area's quality of life, which is so important to economic development.
So, it was good to see a strong turnout of artists, arts organizations and arts supporters this week for the first Huntington Arts Summit. About 120 people gathered to discuss how the community can work together to nurture and promote the arts.
Some arts leaders already are working on putting together an application for Huntington to become a Certified Arts Community. Charleston, Morgantown and several other communities in the state already have received that designation through the West Virginia Commission on the Arts, and Huntington certainly deserves that recognition.
Even more importantly, the summit reminds all of us of the many ways artists and arts organizations enrich our own lives and our community. Showing your support is not only easy, but it's fun.
Just buy a ticket and enjoy the show.

The Contemporary House RA in Santa Fe, Argentina
With an area of 320.0 square meters this contemporary house is situated in Santa Fe, Argentina. It is developed in a plot whose bottom coincided with the perimeter of clause of a private neighborhood beyond the limit. This house is known as House RA. It extends sown fields that allow having a broader vision of the surrounding landscape and to provide more privacy. Unintentionally, the near façade is oriented to the north part, so that the most private part would have the best orientation.
At first, the owner made a distinct importance for a wide living room. It will directly connect to the courtyard and the gallery. The homeowner demands that the bedroom and the most private part of the residence will be found in the upper level. Besides, the possibility of parking in the garage required two cars. While as a result of the dimensions and determinants of the lateral separations, it was finally decided to place the entire width of the living room area with the gallery. Now it is located toward the bottom. It is raised in the volume of the bedrooms of children in the front.
It creates a garage intern with the requested capacity of the vehicle of the clients. Well, this simple movement releases the façade on the ground floor and serves as a framework that improves the visuals in the entire project from the front to the backyard. At the same time it takes the full advantage of the better orientation. And to make these more powerful visuals influences, the entire bedroom is supported by just four joints. Now are you excited to discover more of the interior and exterior spaces of the house? Why don't you check the images of this House RA below.
Precisely, there is a continuous floor L-shaped here, which distributes the laundry, a guest room and the master bedroom that opens onto a terrace. The project is assembled with the three simple volumes which are set by the verticality of the stairwell. It works as patella that organizes the internal functions. With the idea that you can use to maximize the visual environment, in the living room stands a terrace which can be accessed independently from the exterior. The designers completed this house this year 2012.
The use of contemporary language, pure and simple lines is complemented by the use of a single color for the siding in this house. It leaves the stones covering the specific elements that seek its features. We can strongly say that Pablo Anzliutti achieved the demands of the clients. He utilized the existing materials and spaces in the facade. Through this building we can perceive the product of the creativity, wits and techniques of the designers. We hope that once again we gave you another idea on how to design your future home someday.

Open less than three months, we lunched at Bricktop's in Palm Beach, Florida last week and enjoyed it very much. It's much better than what has been at that location. We hope it improves. We started with delicious lobster bisque and guacamole appetizers: very tasty, fresh, appropriately hot or cold and quickly served along with toasty, crusty bread and a glass of cabernet. Waiter was very pleasant and efficient. The entree's side of sautéed spinach, however, was bitter and nearly inedible and my son's delicious burger's french fries accompaniment were inadequate. Both need work. But the Palm Beach salad (crab meat, avocado, shrimp and egg) was fresh, good sized and tasty. I like cold dishes served properly chilled and they did so again here! Hot fudge sunday was our shared dessert served, inexplicably, with soup spoons not properly elongated ones fit for this messy purpose (needed to minimize sticky fingers and to facilitate reaching over the table to grab some). Fudge not up to northern standards but for Florida not bad. Bricktop's was lots of fun except for the ultimately successful credit card check out experience which dragged out about half an hour. Their credit card machine failed to authorize the charge because, I'm told, of its failure to function properly, not a problem with my card. This problem (which they tell me has happened before) should be handled ASAP.

Click Here to Watch the Whole Video in HD at Men Over 30
Nothing but prime beef here, featuring the hottest real men on the net. These studs are aged to perfection and love to show where experience counts.
Rocco Russo is a fresh young face who is eager to please. A bit quiet and reserved, Rocco comes to life in the gym, as he flexes his muscles and works up a sweat, curling his biceps and toning his chest and back, before slipping out of his workout attire and stripping down to the bone. Seated in the gym, he fondles his cock through his underwear, before losing them as well, revealing his hardening cock as he begins to stroke himself off, spreading his legs around the bench and arching up with his feet. Once hes fully hard, Rocco stands and leans against his locker, his ass perched in the air as he looks down at his cock, before he twists around, presses his back to his locker and launches his load all over the ground below, painting the floor with a spattering of jizz that reflects in hard florescent lights as Rocco looks on, satisfied and sated.Enjoy!

It was a good news-bad news situation for the Pansy Kidd Middle School football teams in their season openers against Broken Bow Thursday at Costner Stadium.
The seventh-grade Raiders defeated the Savages 26-6. However, the news was not as good for the eighth-grade Raiders as they fell 16-6 to the Savages.
The PKMS teams will return to action next Thursday with a pair of games against McAlester at Hook Eales Stadium in McAlester. Games will begin at 5 p.m.
EAGLETOWN — It was a rough Friday afternoon offensively for the Whitesboro Lady Bulldogs on the softball field in Friday's three-way.
The Lady Bulldogs fell 4-0 to the host Eagletown Lady Eagles, then lost 3-1 to the Bennington Lady Bears to end the day.
BATTIEST — It was a very profitable day for the Whitesboro Bulldogs baseball team as they posted a pair of wins in Thursday's three-way, beating the host Battiest Panthers 9-5 and then edging the Smithville Braves 2-1.
Cameron 7, Crowder 6: In Crowder, a two-out, three-run rally in the seventh inning lifted the Yellowjackets past the Demons.
Samuel Humphries' RBI single and Alex Humphries' two-RBI single, each with two outs, in the seventh inning capped the comeback for the 'Jackets.
TAHLEQUAH — One big inning doomed the Poteau Lady Pirates Thursday afternoon in their road loss to the Tahlequah Lady Tigers.
The host team scored five runs in the third inning as the Lady Tigers blanked the Lady Pirates 6-0.
Arkoma 12, Bokoshe 6; Arkoma 5, Bokoshe 1: In Bokoshe, the Lady Mustangs took two games from the Lady Tigers in Green Valley Conference action Thursday afternoon.
Wister 9, Howe 5; Wister 11, Howe 3: In Wister, the Lady Wildcats swept a Green Valley Conference doubleheader from the Lady Lions.
TAHLEQUAH — The Poteau High School cross country teams each placed fourth in Thursday's Early Tiger Meet, while both Heavener squads were eight.
In the girls' 2,000-meter race, the Lady Pirates scored 93 points, coming in behind champion Coweta (39 points), host Tahlequah (58) and Keys (Park Hill) (83). The Lady Wolves scored 208 points.
Although the new era of Poteau Pirates football has already started under Greg Werner, their new coach, the realistic beginning will commence at 7:30 p.m. tonight when the Pirates travel to meet the Durant Lions at Paul Laird Field on the campus of Southeastern Oklahoma State University.
There's nothing more than the Pirates want to do than start out 2012 at 1-0.
"Anytime you start a season, everybody has high hopes," Werner said. "We want to get it kicked off right, and start the season right."
BOKOSHE — The 2012 football season will begin at 7:30 p.m. tonight for the Bokoshe Tigers as they entertain the Oaks Warriors.
For all intents and purpose, this will indeed be nothing more than a scrimmage for the Tigers. The Tigers did not get to do any scrimmages this preseason. In fact, due to a late start to the school year, they've only been practicing about a week in pads and helmets.
"It's been a slow process," said Tyler Massey, Bokoshe's second-year coach.
POCOLA — The Pocola Indians saw a heart-breaking end to their 2011 season last year. They lost three of their four final games — all three losses were in games in which they led — which kept them from making the Class 2A playoffs. They don't want that to happen tonight when they travel to meet Tulsa Regent Prep at 7:30 p.m. in Coweta.

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to one and all! When I was a child, I always preferred Christmas Eve more to Christmas Day. I think that was because it was the pinnacle of anticipation and excitement. And also because it was a fun night of revelry at my beloved Grandmother's house. We ate good food, unwrapped gifts, laughed, talked, and we kids were allowed to sample our parents' highballs. I can still remember peering out the window with my cousins, trying to spy the Christmas star (and Rudolph's nose!). My mother and I lived with my Grandmother for over ten years, and the first Christmas without my Grandmother was a very difficult one. I really felt the darkness of the season. She was the glue that held our extended family together. But, time marches on, and for the last few years it has been wonderful to make new Yule and Christmas traditions with my husband and some of my other family members.
Thus far, this dark half of the year has brought an unexpected gift of warmth from Mama Gaia. The weekend after Thanksgiving, my husband and I headed to the park, and I felt like a mole blinking in the fierce sun after too many rainy dark days. And in the midst the sunshine and scores of other cheerful walkers, the realization hit me like a freight train that autumn was over, and winter had begun! The last time I had been to the park, there were myriads of golden, scarlet and orange-clad trees, creatures rustling in the undergrowth, and plenty of fallen leaves to crunch. Now there were bare trees, standing like the bones of giants, bleached or pealing monoliths in a quiet graveyard. They swayed gently in the wind. How had it happened so fast? But I was also struck by how far I could see in the park. New vistas I had not noticed before (it is a very hilly, rolling park) were open, and the atmosphere was completely different. It was harsh, but very beautiful.
In nature, the code, the pathway, the map is always in front of us. The seasons guide us through each phase with subtle changes, clues, visions. Through the bareness of the trees we see new things, new horizons… things that were hidden in the midst of all that was verdant. Death brings clarity. Death brings fertility and the chance for new growth. The darkness holds terror, but also limitless possibility. In darkness there are no boundaries. The soul, if bolstered by the seasons' lessons that came before, can stretch to its fullest potential and breathe a sigh of relief. I once read that Aristotle tells us that that which is beautiful is also terrible. How fitting that we finally recognize the beauty in our shadow selves, embracing the dark half of the year as equal to the light, quivering before its awfulness and looking it in the eye, loving each part of ourselves so that we may evolve, and give that love back to the Universe.
Even so, I'm always looking for that Christmas star- that little pinpoint of light in the midnight hour that reminds me that just after the darkest moment, light will return. Perhapss that is why I'm really drawn to the energy of The Star card during this time of holy days which commemorate the birth of light into the world,
The Star from The Gaian Tarot by Joanna Powell Colbert
Following a gentle glow through the darkness and into the light half of the year seems like the perfect thing to do at this moment, just as the three Wise Men followed that Christmas Star. Rather fittingly, Stella Maris, or Star of the Sea, is an ancient name for the Virgin Mary, one of the manifestations of the Great Mother during this season. It is also another name for Polaris, the guiding star.
One of my favorite bands, The Medieaval Baebes, recreates a lovely hymn to Stella Maris on their album "Salva Nos."
There is a gentle peace to The Star, which seems to embody that same peace we all want to experience during this time of year (and which modern life often seems bent on destroying). As the heavenly host said, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." Celebrating the time between the winter Solstice and the new year has deep roots reaching back to the time before Christ, and writer Waverly Fitzgerald has a wonderful post at her website Living In Season about this liminal time of year. May you have a holiday season of laughter, of revels and of good times with kindred spirits. May the light of the Star be with you, and peace be to you.
CommentsOne Response to "Merry Christmas!"
Lovely words and visuals; they are like a beacon for me. I plan to use this quieter time of year to do a bit of star-gazing on clear nights, hibernate and make a visual landscape of things I want in my life in 2012.

Israel's Control of Palestinian Residency in the West Bank and Gaza
This report describes the arbitrary exclusion by the Israeli military of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians since 1967 and documents the impact that exclusion continues to have on individuals and families. The way Israel's military has exercised its control over the Palestinian population registry – the list of Palestinians whom it considers to be lawful residents of the West Bank and Gaza territories – has separated families, caused people to lose jobs and educational opportunities, barred people from entering the Palestinian territories, and trapped others inside them. Egypt also has problematic policies on Palestinians trying to enter Gaza that are based on the Israeli-controlled population registry.

I found the plans here:
and altered them slightly for my own means.
Total cost is around $20.
Step 1: Measure it out
I copied and blew up the dimensions template, printed it out, and traced it onto the board to make the first piece that would act as the template for the rest of them. You could also just measure it out by hand on the board as well.
Step 2: Drill the holes and cut them out
In total, I measured and cut out 12 of these holders and cut them out with my jigsaw, sanding each down to a 120 grit finish (doesn't have to be perfectly smooth, just sans splinters with no sharp edges).
Step 3: Measure out the placements and pilot drill
I used 1-1/4" wood screws to attach the holders to the board, so I drilled 3/16" pilot holes (1/8" works too), spaced symmetrically 1-1/2" apart on each line of the zig-zag. To be on the safe side, I counter-bored the holes on the back of the board (1/4" bit, 1/4" deep), so that there wouldn't be any chance of the wood cracking.
I then clamped each holder individually on top of one of the lines, with a dab of wood glue in the middle, and drilled the pilot holes through the back of the board about 1/2" into the holder. After the pilot holes, I screwed the wood screws into the two holes.
I then did the same thing to the rest of the holders, starting from one end to the other.
I built two of these one out of Ambrosia Maple (Sounds better than wormy maple) and the other out of Oak. I made mine 6 tiers high. I copied the pattern, resized them on Microsoft Word and used a glue stick to attach them to the wood for the nests. They went together very fast and simple . I left these raw but plan on staining others. Thanks for the great instructable.
They look great, thanks!

Meet the new village president

Editor's note: This is the first in a two-part series about Bill Antti, Genoa City's new village president. This installment focuses on Antti himself and how he sees village politics. The final installment will discuss what he sees as the village's most crucial issues during his two-year term.
GENOA CITY — When it comes to village politics, Bill Antti isn't loud, flashy or emotional. That seems about right, considering he's a retired quality engineer with more than 30 years' experience who holds a degree in mathematics and a double minor in science and engineering.
"I like to pose a hypothesis and either confirm or refute it," he said during an April 25 interview. "If you present the facts, usually you can make a logical conclusion."
That's the mode of conduct Antti employed as a trustee since 2000. Now, he takes center stage.

On April 2, Antti won his first bid for the office of village president, in an uncontested race.
At the village's April 16 reorganization meeting, Antti asked the board and village department heads to create specific goals. On April 25, he discussed several ideas they're working on with the intention of improving communication between village government and the people it represents.
But he also talked about some things people sitting in the audience at regular board meetings may not know — himself, and his perceived general misunderstanding of village government.
"A lot of people, I think, get on the board because they think water rates are too high, taxes are too high," Antti said. "I think a lot of people don't realize there are state restrictions all of these things that influence what we do. A lot of it is out of our control."
Is that how Antti began his local political career as a trustee in 2000?
"I ran because I wanted to be more involved in the community and more aware of what was going on," he said.
A former Scoutmaster and little league coach, Antti said it was part of a natural progression.
"You do that when the kids are younger," he said about his involvement in those child-geared programs.
"Then, when you get older, you do something for the community itself."
Antti said there is an obligation to serve, one which sort of falls in line with why he became a quality engineer, having worked over the years as Sta-Rite, Delavan, and Sun Electric Corp., Crystal Lake, Ill.
Because being a quality engineer, he said, means ensuring the level of service a product provides the customer.
"I think a lot of times, companies, they're in business to make money, but I think the best way to do that is to make a good product," Antti said.
Antti said being in village government is not so different from quality engineering. Only in village government, he's "an advocate for the electorate," he said.
What makes him the right person for the job?
Experience, he said, along with being open-minded, well-researched and knowing how to work with others.
But Antti seems to have the same desire as anyone else who sat in the president's chair.
"I guess I'd like to be remembered as somebody who worked hard to do the right thing for the village," Antti said.
Born and raised in Chicago, Antti said he and his wife, Pat, moved to Genoa City in 1978 because they wanted to raise their children outside of the city. Those children are adults now — Brent is a certified financial planner in Oshkosh, Heather a copy editor for Rotary International in Evanston, Ill.
The name Antti should be familiar to anyone who attended or worked in the Brookwood School District. Pat was a librarian at Brookwood for 26 years.
Although Bill began his run as trustee in 2000, it wasn't by an election victory. In fact, he lost his first election attempt. However, one of the trustees, Tom Holden, resigned that summer because of health concerns. Antti said the board asked him to serve that term.
He remained, successfully being re-elected, and now is the person on the village board with the most experience.
Antti's financial skills earned him the chairman's spot on the board's Finance Committee for years. He also chaired the Economic Development and Zoning and Human Resources committees, as well as headed the subcommittee to create a village master plan in the 2000s.
When asked what's the most rewarding part of being in village politics, Antti said it's when he accomplishes something.
"Like the master plan," he said. "What we wanted was to have something that was specifically for our community, an honest vision of where we're going to go in the next 25 years."
Now, in addition to his role as village president, Antti chairs the Finance Committee and the planning commission.
But as president, Antti's at the helm. He said they talked about department and village board goals April 16, and there are ideas floating around in an effort to show the general public how government works.
For example, he said, the police department provides a list of calls each month to the board, so trustees can see how many calls were logged for each type of incident. Antti said something like that — even in the form of a graph on a bulletin board — could help people understand what happens, say, in the office of village clerk-treasurer.
"They get a lot of different calls, from a lot of different people, about a lot of different issues," Antti said.
The village's website will be key in this, he said, and they're talking about posting village regulations online.
In addition to increasing the level of transparency, Antti also expressed a desire to help improve people's understanding of village government, specifically the powers of the board.
When asked to sum up that power, Antti discussed different types of scenarios.
One, he said, relates to how people often assume that once they are elected, they can lower taxes. Aside from state regulations by which the village is bound, "there's kind of a dilemma" that Antti said some people may not understand.
"There are two things you can do — raise taxes or cut services — in order to be fiscally responsible," Antti said.
It's a fine line, he said. A board could decide to cut services, but it may not be providing enough to its community. The other side is, a board could raise taxes, "but then people can't afford it," Antti said.
People who, like the customers he was the voice for in quality engineering, he was elected to represent.
When asked why he thinks he had a relatively easy bid for village president in the April 2 election, Antti seemed to draw his answer from his experience as a Human Resources Committee chairman than being at the head of the Finance Committee.
"I guess my strength is I can lead the board in a positive direction," he said.

|Pete Seeger's gift to American music cannot be overstated. Using basic, often biblical themes, he created and interpreted a body of work which is ingrained in the American national consciousness, and helped to further define the American musical tradition. Appleseed Recordings head Jim Musselman undertook the task of creating a tribute to Seeger, bringing together some of the finest contemporary musicians, folk and otherwise, to interpret some of Seeger's songs.
|A standout track is "My Father's Mansions," contributed by British folk/rock troubadour and Woody Guthrie historian Billy Bragg and violinist Eliza Carthy. Seeger disciple Ani Difranco offers a disarmingly tender, delicate reading of "My Name Is Lisa Kalvelage." The most unusual track on the album, the Indigo Girls' take on "Letter To Eve" features processed vocals, elaborate percussion and production tricks. Seeger's standards are well represented: "Where Have All The Flowers Gone" is given a poignant treatment by Tommy Sands and Vedran Smilovic; Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt sing "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine," and Nanci Griffith performs "If I Had A Hammer" along with a band of notable Seeger devotees.

Concern Over Lab Oversight
By KRWG News
New Mexico – Two Republican members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee are concerned the Department of Energy could be easing safety and security oversight at national laboratories.
U.S. Reps Joe Barton and Michael Burgess of Texas sent letters Monday to the Government Accountability Office and Energy Secretary Steven Chu.
They asked the GAO to review the proposed plan, which they say would allow contractors to implement safety and security programs without strong federal oversight.
They say the Energy Department has suspended some independent inspections of nuclear weapons complex facilities and that dozens of internal reviews and assessments have been suspended in the past year.
They say incidents at Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore labs showed the need for safety and security improvements in the past decade.

When it comes to giving money away online, Seattle was the most generous last year among U.S. cities with populations of more than 100,000, according to a new analysis by a Charleston software firm.
Blackbaud Inc. said Thursday it based the findings on 2013 web-based donations that were processed using the Daniel Island-based company's fundraising technology.
Seattle took the top spot with $53.5 million in online largesse for every 1,000 residents. The top 10 was rounded out by:
Alexandria, Va.
Washington, D.C.
Cambridge, Mass.
Ann Arbor, Mich.
Arlington, Va.
Bellevue, Wash.
San Francisco
Now in its sixth year, the Blackbaud study analyzed 265 cities that gave away a total of about $822 million last year.
South Carolina had two representatives on the most-generous list, including the software firm's home town: Columbia and Charleston were ranked 41st and 51st, respectively, with $13.8 million and $12 million in donations per 1,000 residents.
Blackbaud's software and services are designed specifically for nonprofits to help them connect with donors and raise money more effectively.
"Online giving continues to be an important part of a nonprofit's overall strategy," said Steve MacLaughlin, the company's director of product management. "We continue to see growth in online giving and it is helping to drive fundraising results across nonprofits of all sizes."

Justin Timberlake appeared on Ellen yesterday and dropped a bomb that will send fan fiction authors into overdrive. Apparently he and fellow mega-star Ryan Gosling used to be roommates! But before you let your fantasies wander, it's probably important to note that this was when they were mere tweens, or "pre-hotties." Little Ryan came to live with Justin when they were cast mates on The Mickey Mouse Club in the early '90s. "His mother had to keep her job in Canada the second year that we were on the television show," Justin explained, "and my mom was his guardian for like six months." That's how the bond between the two Mousketeers went deeper than most. "We were probably a little closer that the rest of the kids that were on the show just because we had to share a bathroom."
Clips of the guys at the time show that they definitely had chemistry, but Justin admits that he and Ryan were also partners in crime off camera as well. "We used to do terrible things… I was like, 'What you want to do, thug?' And he was like, 'I don't know, cuz,' because that's definitely how we talked." Their hefty rap sheet includes vehicle theft…sorta. "We stole a golf cart. You know what it's like on a backlot. There's just golf carts everywhere. So, we stole the golf cart and we drove into MGM Studios, which is totally illegal by the way." Mickey would be appalled! Maybe they did it to impress little Britney Spears.

Alamo Heights shakes off pain of playoff loss
By David Hinojosa : September 3, 2013
Photo By San Antonio Express-News file photoAlamo Heights' Byron Proctor (22), seen here in a Nov. 9, 2012, game vs. Buda Hays, is a key returnee for the Mules. He rushed for 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns on 175 carries as a junior last year.
Alamo Heights' second-year football coach Mike Norment gathered his team following its scrimmage against MacArthur two weeks ago and told them to learn from the past and look to the future.
For the Mules, the past was a heartbreaking and shocking first-round playoff loss to Brackenridge and its playmaking quarterback Ramon Richards, who gained nearly 400 yards of total offense.
It was a stunner, and it offers the Mules plenty of motivation for the new season.
Norment has done his best to quell talk about last season's playoff loss among his players. It's in the past, and it's time to move on.
"That was something we talked about in the offseason, but this is a new group," said Norment, who was 8-3 in his first season as Mules' head coach last year.
"It's always in the back of our minds, but I don't really talk about it because this team is different from last year's team."
For those who participated in that game, it offered some good reminders for the Mules as they prepared for the 2013 season.
"We learned not to underestimate any team and any player, specifically," senior cornerback Daniel Mays said.
"I mean, I know we got blown out by a quarterback. We know that we have to make every play like it's your last."
The Mules are indeed moving on . They opened the 2013 season last Friday with a 41-28 loss to O'Connor, and they face Clark on Friday. Those two teams are helping Alamo Heights in its preparations for District 27-4A play.
"We schedule teams like that because it forces us to get better," Norment said.
The Mules took some big hits from graduation. They return four starters on offense and three on defense. Alamo Heights is expected to field a team with several first-year varsity senior starters.
Norment said getting those players adjusted to varsity play as quickly as possible is crucial for the Mules' chances this year.
"That happens every year," Norment said. "We're usually a senior-heavy team. Every year, we expect the incoming seniors to take a leadership role. I'm very happy with what I've seen, and hopefully, it continues to improve."
It looks like the Mules are ready to go.
"We're all pumped," senior slot reciever Jacob Osborne said. "We are ready for the season. This is what we want. We want to do our best."
