A Few Surprises and the Buzz About Welsh Springer Spaniels
"One of my favorite things about being involved with dogs is whelping and raising puppies." So writes Senior Editor Christi McDonald who learned about whelping from her mother, and who always finds something new to learn with every litter. Today Christi shares the surprising stories of one Toy Poodle's self-sufficiency and the cooperative efforts of two Norwich Terrier dams.
The distinctively red and white Welsh Springer Spaniel is a hunting dog of ancient origin. Dogs of similar color and conformation are depicted on medieval tapestries, where their similarity to today's dogs is rather remarkable. Discover some of the distinguishing features that have supported this Celtic character's survival into the modern age.
Many of this year's top show dogs are featured in their own beautiful mini-websites on Best In Show Daily. Simply click on a banner ad to see the dog's up-to-date show history, plus a slide show of photos that reveals exactly why it's a top dog..
Dan Sayers
Editor in Chief
One of my favorite things about being involved with dogs is whelping and raising puppies. There's nothing like holding those wriggling babies in your hands for the first time, hearing their first little cries, seeing those beloved dams nurturing their own, then watching them grow and develop over the following few months. more
The secret of the Spaniel's appeal is really no secret at all. Good looks, a beguiling expression and an unbridled enthusiasm characterize the breeds that comprise one of the dog world's most enduring families of gun dogs.
During the 15th century, dogs with feathered coats and dependable noses were used to assist falconers in pursuit of partridge and other fowl. These versatile performers worked on land and in the water, happily flushing their way into the hearts of gentlemen hunters on both sides of the English Channel. more

Thrombocytopenia (Low Platelet Count) Topic Guide
Thrombocytopenia (Low Platelet Count): Thrombocytopenia or low blood platelets, are caused by impaired production of platelets, increased destruction or consumption of platelets, or splenic sequestration of platelets. These three categories are associated with specific diseases and conditions. The treatment of thrombocytopenia depends on the cause.
Must Read Articles:
Complete Blood Count (CBC) Complete blood count (CBC) is one of the most common blood tests. The complete blood count test provides valuable information about the quantity of the different types of cells in the blood. Red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are the major cells in the blood. Complete blood count can assist in diagnosing anemia, certain cancers, kidney problems, and allergic reactions.

• Watch Wilson Press Conference
MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin senior quarterback Russell Wilson reflected on the Badgers' 42-13 win over Minnesota and looked ahead to Saturday's vital Leaders Division clash with Illinois during his weekly press conference Monday at Camp Randall Stadium.Archived video of the media session is available through the link above, and a complete transcript of Wilson's remarks can be found below.
QUESTION #1: Russell, you're on pace to smash the record for pass efficiency rating. What do you know about that rating? And so you think it's a fair way to measure a quarterback?
WILSON: I definitely think that passing efficiency is definitely something that you want to be great at and have a high number in. And that means that the quarterback completing a lot of passes. The average yards per play is usually pretty good and you're scoring a lot of touchdowns. In terms of your interceptions, those are down. But I don't focus on that. I do believe that it is a significant number, but at the same time, I have keep competing every single day and just trying to perform on Saturdays.QUESTION #2: Russell, could you give us your impressions of Montee Ball, and just the season he's having, how you've enjoyed playing with him?WILSON: Montee's an impressive player, from practice to film room to his work ethic in the weight room. Then when he comes out on Saturdays, he wants to be great. And that's something I always tell him right before the game starts, let's be great today. And he always gives me a big smile. He gives me the nod saying, yeah, let's do it.Some of the moves he made this past weekend, one in particular on the safety, were pretty impressive. And he does that all the time. He's a great player. He's got a lot of talent. He pass protects extremely well. He runs the ball obviously extremely well, and he catches too. So with all those intangibles, and all the things that he does in terms of leadership aspect, it's pretty impressive.QUESTION #3: Russell, if you had a Heisman vote, who would you cast it for right now?WILSON: I'd probably have to vote for Montee. He's my teammate. He's the man. Money Ball, I guess they call him. QUESTION #4: Russell, are you surprised how quickly things have turned around in this conference. You know, two weeks ago, you're two full games behind Penn State. There's this three-way tie for second place. And now, all of a sudden, you're two games away from playing in that Big Ten championship game. Does that surprise you just how quickly that's turned around?WILSON: It doesn't necessarily surprise me in terms of where we are. I believe that things happen for a reason. We have a lot of talent on this football team. It's a great conference to play in, the Big Ten, and things happen. We're in a great situation, but we have to take care of that situation, play a great game on Saturday, have a great week of preparation. And then focus on what we can control right now.QUESTION #5: Russell, I don't know how much tape you've looked at of Illinois yet, but when you look at their ends, what stands out, their two guys?WILSON: They look like pro-style defensive ends. They're tall, really athletic, fast, coming around the edge really well. You really have to make sure you're stepping up in the pocket, throwing the ball on time, making sure that you're just gaining positive gains every single play, and trying to get first downs, and then go from there. Obviously, we have a great offensive line, and they have a great defensive line, so it's going to be a battle.QUESTION #6: Russell, have you ever had Jake Byrne remind you he's an eligible receiver and throw him a couple, and, but do you see him contributing in other ways if he's not catching balls?WILSON: Yeah, Jake Byrne reminds me every time in the hotel. We may have a particular play that goes to him for a touchdown. And he always reminds me, 'Hey, I'm there, you know.' We haven't gotten to him yet, but he's a spectacular player. He blocks extremely well. I know he pass protects extremely well for me and gives me enough time to find other guys too, and he's strong, he's athletic and he's really an intelligent player.QUESTION #7: It seems like you're throwing a touchdown pass every game to Jacob Pedersen. What's it do for you as a quarterback, just this offense, to have him out there, especially it seems like you're finding him an awful lot in the red zone?WILSON: Besides an offensive line and having a great running back, having a great tight end is a quarterback's best friend. (It's) his ability to catch the football, his ability to block. And he's extremely fast, too. The advantages he has on linebackers and safeties is something that you don't see too often, and I believe he's one of the best in the country. He deserves that. He's a great player, and he wants the ball in his hands all the time.QUESTION #8: With (Peter) Konz being out for at least of couple weeks, what level is your confidence in (Ryan) Groy stepping into the job? And how important is the center to the offensive line and to you in making out calls and setting up and establishing a play?WILSON: You know, Konz is obviously a loss for us in terms of his ability. He's one of the best centers in the country, but Groy is right behind him. I truly believe that. He's got a lot of talent, he's extremely athletic. That's something you notice from Groy in the weight room and in practice all the time. And he's intelligent in terms of the play calling. So in terms of what he'll be able to do on Saturday, I think he'll be able to do everything that Konz can do. And we're excited about his opportunity. A start could be made, you never know. And so I believe that Groy has a lot of talent and he's ready for it.QUESTION #9: You were asked about the efficiency rating before. I'm just curious. What do you think is the best representative number of a quarterback's success if it's not just wins and losses?WILSON: Well, in my mind, it's competing. When things aren't going to well, when you're behind and you have to bring the team back, when it's third down and it's third-and-13 or third-and-7 or third-and-2, how is that quarterback going to get the first down? When you're in the red zone? So I think those two things … competing on third down and in the red zone are the two main things that a quarterback has to do and be successful at.Thank you guys. On, Wisconsin!

This is a REAL behind the scenes video. It really shows how Nicki Minaj was hands on with how she looks on camera. It almost has a reality show feel to it, with a comedic dialogue between Nicki and Pharell about how smooth his skin is.
Check out the Behind The Scenes video of "Get Like Me":
The video will premiere later this month. Nelly's new album M.O. is due this fall featuring T.I., Future, 2 Chainz, Nelly Furtado, Trey Songz, and Florida Georgia Line.

The Promise
Could you slow down aging, get more energy, and lose weight, too -- without counting calories or sacrificing taste?
The O2 diet, by registered dietitian Keri Glassman, says you can.
Glassman's 32-day plan centers on the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) scale, which tells you how rich a food is in antioxidants. The higher the ORAC score, the better.
On this plan, you count ORAC points, not calories. You eat more of the ORAC scale's top-rated foods, including leafy greens, artichokes, blueberries, salmon, herbs, and spices and less of the lowest, such as fried foods, baked goods, candy, and soda.
What You Can Eat and What You Can't
You eat three meals and at least one snack a day.
Off-limits: fried foods, baked goods, sugar- and fat-free processed foods, high-fat or processed meats, soda, artificial sweeteners, trans fats, and high-fructose corn syrup.
The first few weeks of the plan can be fairly intense, particularly the first few days.
Phase 1 (lasts 4 days): This phase is a "cleanse." You get a whopping 50,000 ORAC points per day on very few calories, and you drink water and green tea.
Phase 2: You get 30,000 ORAC points a day, control your portions, and eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies for 2 weeks.
Phase 3: You can add one indulgence per week, and you get more food options. This phase lasts for 2 weeks.
Phase 4 (ongoing): Stick with the Phase 3 guidelines, plus one more indulgence per week and one more high-ORAC fruit per day.
You can't have alcohol during Phases 1 and 2. You can drink, in moderation, in Phases 3 and 4, as one of your indulgences.
Level of Effort: Medium
You may have to make a big change in your food choices, depending on what you eat now. But this change is meant to last.
Limitations: You have more restrictions at the start of the plan, which gradually loosens up.
Cooking and shopping: You should be able to find many ORAC-rich foods at your grocery store. The book includes tips for eating out and choosing foods at convenience stores.
Packaged foods or meals: No.
In-person meetings: No.
Exercise: Every week, you should do 2.5 hours of moderate exercise.
Does It Allow for Dietary Restrictions or Preferences?
You can easily adjust this plan to fit vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free needs.
What Else You Should Know
Cost: Just your groceries.
Support: You do this plan on your own. Glassman's web site includes an option to order meals.

PAT'S CREEK. Pat's Creek rises in southwestern Ochiltree County (at 36°04' N, 101°03' W). Two branches, Pat's Creek (formerly known as Walker Creek) and the East Fork of Pat's Creek, flow together and then join the Canadian River (at 35°57' N, 100°58' W) to the south. Most of the creek, including its two forks, lies within Roberts County. The distance from the source of each fork to the confluence with the Canadian is about six miles. The creek flows through flat to rolling terrain where sandy loams support brush and grasses. The area was once part of Henry Cresswell's Bar CC Ranch range.
The following, adapted from the Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition, is the preferred citation for this article."PAT'S CREEK," Handbook of Texas Online (http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/rbpev), accessed October 08, 2015.

Intense i-Color Liquid Liner for Eyes has a brush and application that are nearly identical to Almay's Liquid Eyeliner, except that each of the four shades are loaded with iridescence. The cool factor of this eyeliner is that the shades alter in changing light (for example, Raisin Quartz is a metallic purple but in certain light takes on a brownish cast). The negative is that this much shine so close to the lashes is distracting, and not flattering if wrinkles are noticeable. Still, teens and twenty-somethings will find this a fun departure, and it does last.
Almay At-A-Glance
Strengths: An excellent assortment of mascaras; several exceptional foundation options to choose from; a phenomenal liquid eyeliner; a selection of good makeup removers.
Weaknesses: Some of the Intense i-color products do the exact opposite of enhancing eye color; mediocre blushes; "Smart Shade" products don't automatically adapt to skin's color as claimed.
Long a standby for those with sensitive skin seeking hypoallergenic products (though that term is unregulated and can be applied to any product, regardless of ingredients), Almay continues to refine its comprehensive makeup line. In early 2006 the company repackaged its old favorites, and also relaunched several new makeup items. Everything now has a sleek new look and color-coded packaging. We admit, the makeover is effective, not just product-wise but visually too.
Shopping this drugstore line is now much easier because of the clearly defined product and color family groupings. Lamentably, testers and trial sizes of the makeup are still scarce regardless of where you shop. Almay has always been a reliable line for foundations, powder, and mascara. Within its current lineup you'll find that remains true. Their foundations are better than ever, and still offer full, broad-spectrum sun protection and a mostly neutral palette. We also found their concealers and mascaras have improved, as have the pencil options. When it comes to shopping for makeup staples with state-of-the-art formulas, Almay has many winners, and some innovative surprises that its competitors would be wise to learn from.
For more information about Almay, owned by Revlon, call (800) 992-5629 or visit www.almay.com.
The new Beautypedia Team proudly and unequivocally maintains the commitment to help you find the best products possible for your skin. We do this by relentlessly pursuing and relying on published scientific research so you will have unbiased information on what works and what doesn't-and the sneaky ways you could be making your skin worse, not better!
The Beautypedia Team reviews all products using the same research, criteria, and objectivity, whether the product being reviewed is from Paula's Choice or another brand.
I got the raisin colour which is lovely with my green/grey eyes. The iridescence was much less obvious on the eyelid compared to swatching on my arm. I have oily eyelids so don't use anything too emollient if I'm putting on eye makeup. Unfortunately, withing a few hours I couldn't tell that I'd ever applied this liner - very disappointing.
The packaging doesn't indicate how sparkly this product really is. It is more appropriate for holiday and evening out events than work. Control of the tip is also better in other products.

Awesome. I love it
This works wonders. I am used to the VSTS 2010 look and feel and the Blue theme brings back the nostalgia! It would be more of a theme editor if we could have more flexibility in configuring or rather creating our own themes. Or may be it's possible and I need to explore further :-)
Just awesome! I agree it should be included in the standard VS 2012 setup.
You saved my world :). TBH new design in VS11 is terrible, but with your Blue theme I think I'll manage to get used to it...
Awesome! Just love it...
it's really useful.I like the green theme.
Wow, thank you. My head almost exploded when I saw "light" and "dark" as the only themes. Out of the box, the vs 2012 themes are pretty horrible. When you have to stare at a screen all day long, it sure helps if it is aesthetically pleasing. Thanks again.
Very nice. Replaces the hideously ugly "Light" theme with the "Blue" theme, which looks a lot like VS 2010. Thanks!
I quite like VS2012 out of the box, but it is always great tweak it. Thank you!
FANTASTIC. Just the fact that it has the Dark with light editor made this DL worth it, and the theme customization window is phenomenal! Well, as phenomenal as you can get with the 80,000 options you have. I LOVE the sorting function. I used it to change all the obnoxious highlighted-tex
What a life-saver. I've only had time so far to give the themes a quick look over, but so far this looks like it's a winner!
Version 2.1 fixes the problems with the earlier version that I mentioned in my previous post, so I am now using this extension.
Such a relief!
Great addition to VS12,and would love to see the same for the Web Access site.

The Palm Restaurant Review: Part of an international chain, The Palm feels like home to transplanted New Yorkers who yearn for a nostalgic taste of the Big Apple. The original West Coast location in West Hollywood has earned a reputation as an L.A. institution, its walls covered with caricatures of Hollywood celebrities. This branch is located one block from Staples Center in the once-dreary South Park neighborhood, suddenly exploding with high-end condos and lofts. The signature high-backed wood booths, caricature-filled walls and crisp white linens are all found here, amidst vintage columns and chandeliers. The service downtown is a bit more relaxed and attentive than in West Hollywood, and the menu delivers all the usual steakhouse staples, as well as some Italian specialties. Start with clams casino before moving into the big, juicy steaks. The three-pound-plus lobsters, paired with a steak for The Palm surf 'n' turf specialty, are also popular. Among side dishes, we suggest the creamed spinach and fried onion strings (which we forgive for being a bit greasy). A big red wine from California, Bordeaux or Piedmont is the best way to wash it all down, and the list is more than respectable. Cheesecake, flown in from the Bronx, is a good way to finish before being shocked by the bill.

COVENTRY - Following the ice storm in late December, Dale Perron, head of District 9 for the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTRANS), decided a quick cleanup was in order.
A controversy arose when a 3.6-mile stretch along Route 5 south of Newport City in the Coventry was cleared of storm damage.
Property owners objected to the work because they were not notified previously, and the wood was collected by VTRANS and delivered to state garages in the area to heat the buildings.
Please see The Newport Daily Express Friday for the complete story.

as the others said lack of instructions! and the cake was a bit dry as well. I used this recipe for a paying customer and they were disappointed!flag if inappropriate

need more details on recipe do you beat 8 egg whites then fold in?at what temp do we bake? helpflag if inappropriate
could you update this recipe on how to make the cake especially with the 8 egg whites, do you beat them? how long to cook etc.flag if inappropriate
NO quality control on recipe before printing? No BAKING TIME LISTED FAILED TO GIVE INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT WHAT TO DO & WHEN TO ADD EGG WHITES WHEN BAKING CAKE!! If I were a novice cook, my cake would have been a disaster. Fortunately for me, I am a better cook than Epicurious is a proof-reader!!flag if inappropriate
Truncated instructions, so I beat the egg whites to stiff peak and folded them in. A dense, but not dry, cake. My old fashioned plain tin pan had the layer cooked in 20 minutes; the two non-stick pans OVERBAKED! Not sure I would leave a whipped cream-filled cake out for 3 days! FUN icing to make! Beautiful to behold.flag if inappropriate

An obscure dialect called Texas-German is about to disappear.
It was easy for Dorothy Schneider to get in touch with her European roots growing up in the tiny farming community of Galle, Texas, in the 1930s and 1940s.
"There was German spoken everywhere," the now 75-year-old said recently. "It was our first language in my family. You could speak it at the church, at the butcher shop, all over the place."
Today, though she doesn't live far from her girlhood community, it is almost impossible for Schneider to find people who will speak her native tongue with her. She knows it is dying, and she can't do anything about it.
"It's terrible, but I just have to accept this," she said.
As the obscure dialect of Texas German nears extinction, an entire culture and way of life that deeply shaped Texas is about to disappear.
A century ago, more than 100,000 people in a large swathe of south central Texas spoke the dialect. To the uninitiated, it sounds like a strange mishmash of English and German.
Read the rest of this interesting article HERE
My grandparents on my mother's side spoke German quite often in their house, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Texas-German however as they came from Missouri and moved to Texas when my grandfather's job with the VA caused him to come to Waco.

Though it was never in doubt, the contract negotiation issues with the cast of MTV's Jersey Shore have been resolved and MTV has renewed the series for a second season of 12 episodes. If reports that the cast was requesting $10,000 per episode per cast member were true, that's a bargain based on the show's ratings that currently make it MTV's highest-rated reality show.
According to James Hibberd the second season of 12 episodes will air this summer, meaning that production for the episodes will get underway soon.
"Our audience has fallen in love with 'Jersey Shore' and its amazing cast who have really grown together as a family. That bond gives the show its heart, and we're thrilled to reunite these friends to bring fans more of what they love -- laughs, love, drama and of course, GTL [gym, tanning, laundry]," said Tony DiSanto, president of programming for MTV.

Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's "more-in" QE3 announcement last week set off the expected wave of criticism by those who believe all monetary expansion is damagingly inflationary.
Lost in most of those comments is discussion of how the Fed's $40-billion-a-month of asset repurchases will dovetail with fiscal policy.
From my trench, it seems clear that the difference between heading into reflation and a higher standard of living in America vs. heading into stagflation and a lower standard of living is almost now completely in the hands of Congress and the president (more Congress).
"Inflation is when you pay $15 for the $10 haircut you used to get for $5 when you had hair."
If they — whoever they are in a couple of months — agree on how to flatten out the budget over the next decade (before the "next" generation hitting full stride) without imposing an austerity induced mega-recession, America and Americans will be fine.
If, however, the balanced budget crowd somehow imposes a sharp austerity program on America, then we will probably see the third stock market crash since 2000 and a deeper depression.
It seems very unlikely that America will follow a path of sequestration mandated or any other deep austerity. It is equally unlikely that the U.S. continues to run trillion-dollar deficits much longer.
The most likely path for America is something akin to a light version of the Simpson-Bowles budget recommendations. Why is that? Because that is the path of least resistance for politicians.
Regardless of what fiscal policy follows in America in the coming quarters, we are now firmly on a path toward inflation due to yet another round of domestic and international monetary expansion, as well as, fiscal stimulus in India and China. The eventual timing and severity of inflation are really the only things in question at this point.
In order to have reflation and improving standard of living, we will need to grow the economy at least 3% consistently and preferably 4%. As I discuss in my upcoming book "The American Resource Boom" the key to America growing will be our responsible development of our vast natural resources, particularly in energy.
Here, government has a role. Appropriate pipeline development, EPA regulation of hydraulic fracturing, transportation and utility policy are all vital as America decides how to take advantage of the "energy technolution" I described late last year.
For the investor, what to do now is difficult. In looking at charts of the market and various companies, we are either near a market top that could easily be followed by a drop to 2011 lows, or near a breakout point that would lead to new record highs in stocks and commodities.
Take a look at Caterpillar CAT, -1.31% It is a good example of a stock that could legitimately go 20% to 30% in either direction. Technically speaking, technical analysis can't tell us much at this juncture.

Government Incentives for Electronic Health Records
Speaker(s): Mike Fischer
Join us the morning of June 22 at Butte des Morts Country Club for a special breakfast event focused on the major provisions of the EHR Meaningful Use financial incentive program for physicians.
As you know, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH Act) legislation was created to stimulate the adoption of electronic health records (EHR) technology in the United States. HITECH became law on February 17, 2009 as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).
The HITECH act stipulates that beginning in 2011, healthcare providers will be offered financial incentives for demonstrating meaningful use of electronic health records. Incentives will be offered until 2015, after which time penalties may be levied for failing to demonstrate such use.
Our event speaker, Mike Fischer, will explore the major provisions of the new incentive program. He will provide specific examples of how meaningful use can be demonstrated in a physician office and draw on his experience to provide suggestions for successful implementation. Mike will answer the following questions, and encourage additional questions from the audience:
- What is the EHR Financial Incentive Program?
- Who is eligible for funds?
- What are the financial incentives for eligible medical professionals?
- How is successful demonstration of an EHR measured?
- How soon must a physician act?
Mike Fischer is an independent health care consultant with extensive experience in practice management and implementing EHRs in ambulatory health care settings. Mike is currently consulting with a large health care enterprise located in Eastern Wisconsin, as the HITECH Project Manager for over 1,500 eligible professionals.
First Business and Schenck SC are proud sponsors of this event for health care physicians and professionals. There is no cost to attend.

The Rise of the Aerial Commuter: When Will We All Be Flying to Work?
Last month, a blog post by Sam Cookney captured the imagination of anyone who pays a little too much money for the convenience of living near work. He reasoned that, for the same price he paid for his one-bedroom London flat, he could live in a three-bedroom flat near the beach in Barcelona and fly to work in London… »

Worst: Welp, I Guess We're Starting Off This Week's Show With Mason Ryan Dancing
The opening segment of the first NXT show in a set of tapings that includes Sami Zayn vs. Antonio Cesaro having a 2-out-of-3 falls Match Of The Year is Enzo Amore announcing a dance contest, Tons of Funk showing up randomly to beat them up and dance and Mason Ryan pulling a Rikishi. This was the first thing I saw at my first-ever live NXT show. For a moment, I thought I was having Nam flashbacks about Raw.
The good news about NXT is that even the bad stuff isn't so bad, because it doesn't have years and years of horrible memories attached to it to justify pessimism. On Raw they can do something positive, like have Daniel Bryan main-eventing, and there's still this creeping feeling that Stephanie McMahon and Triple H are gonna show up to give him a makeover. On NXT, Brodus Clay beats up a developmental guy and dances and it's not great, but at least he's gone quickly and you don't see him again for 3.8 shows.
Best: SAWFT
I thought BADABOOM, REALEST GUY IN THE ROOM was going to be the defining Enzo Amore catchphrase, but nope, it's S-A-W-F-T. Sawwwwwft!
I'm not sold on Amore as a wrestler yet, but God, that dude is a catchphrase machine. He's almost horrible on the microphone, but it's that purposeful kind of horrible that lets you know he's doing it intentionally. SAWFT works because it (1) allows the crowd to demean a wrestler of their choosing a la the "what" chants with a succinct, easily heard shout-word — see the Tyler Breeze promo, where random people start yelling SAWFT to let the video screen know what they think of him — and (2) it makes wrestling fans sound like the seagulls from Finding Nemo. SAWFT, SAWFT, SAWFT
Worst/Best: A Dance Contest To Set Up Another Dance Contest (But At Least It's Full Of People I Like)
As a rule, I do not like dance contests. LOOK AT THE FUNNY DANCING has never done it for me, especially when funny dancing is used to determine title shots or whatever like it is here.
That said, a bad wrestling segment can be made wonderful by upping the talent of the people in it, so when Emma and Dusty Rhodes are in the same place at the same time, wonders happen. There's a lot of good and bad to this dance-off storyline (which I'll get to in later weeks as it plays out), but seriously, here are three GIFs to concisely explain what I'm talking about.
1. Summer Rae thinks it's stupid that Emma gets title shots and wants to make fun of her dancing. Summer, however, is a master of dance, so she can't do the Emma dance properly and looks like she's doggypaddling.
2. Emma proves her dancing ability by doing The Cabbage Patch. She is super, super hot. And then DUSTY RHODES STARTS DOING THE CABBAGE PATCH WITH HER TO THE DISMAY OF EVERYONE ELSE.
3. Dusty thinks Summer's idea of a dance contest is stupid, but he also thinks it'd be kinda entertaining and funny, because Dusty Rhodes understands wrestling fans better than anybody in wrestling and is allowed to be honest. The GM knowing it's a sorta bad idea but going with it anyway works when they're just being upfront about it. Also, when they're likable wrestling legends.
Oh, right, the third GIF. Emma dances away with Dusty and the camera lingers just long enough to catch Summer Rae corpsing her ass off. This is probably the most I've ever liked Summer Rae.
Send for the man.
Best: Charlotte's Chops
If you read last week's column, you were privy to the surprisingly awesome debut of Ric Flair's daughter "Charlotte." That continues this week, with Charlotte taking Sasha Banks to the woodshed with a combination of gymnastics flips, creative offense and brutal chops.
Jump to the very end of that video. If you need proof that Charlotte's the Flair kid who got the wrestling ability, listen to that pop across the chest. She's got it. Remember David Flair trying to throw strikes? Here, I'll remind you. It was the worst thing in human history. Worse than famine.
What's weird is that the NXT crew of Divas are so well-trained and get such a comfortable place to perform that they're already head and shoulders above the ladies on the USA network. In a perfect world, Sara Del Rey keeps Charlotte, Paige, Emma, Summer and whoever else in developmental for another two years, axe kicks them until they're fighting like joshis, then unleashes them on the unsuspecting WWE Universe.
Uh, who'll probably chant "we want puppies" at them. But still, at least I'd be happy.
Best: Everything About This, Not Counting CJ Parker
This is my motherf**ker right here.
It's hard for me to explain why I like Tyler Breeze so much, but this Jason Schwartzman thing he does with Renee sorta speaks for itself. So many gems here.
– Taking FOUR ATTEMPTS to find the proper adjective for a debut Renee's already called "magnanimous."
– A solid minute of improv about how he's gorgeous while CJ Parker acts like an asshole in the background
– HIS VOICE. He almost sounds like Eugene Levy describing Crabtown in A Mighty Wind
– "Do you feel that? I think we're done here."
– "You just stay being … you, and I'll just stay being me. Tyler Breeze."
– "Tyler Breeze has left the building." The best part of this is that he had a match shortly after that, so Byron Saxton had to stand in the ring "getting a message from backstage" that was ultimately "Tyler Breeze has re-entered the building."
Also important: all of Kassius Ohno's parts in the NXT open have been replaced by Tyler Breeze clips. I'm not sure how to feel about that, so I'm gonna lean toward the positives of "Tyler Breeze is in the open" and shy away from the colossal negatives of "WWE is Taeler Hendrixing Chris Hero."

'microsoft' Suliman appears serene and amazing
Afghan graffiti artist may make her recognise in China

The BBC Hindi's Zubair Ahmed reports. Malina Suliman's "crime" was to shade the wall structure of Kandahar aided by the graffiti of a bone structure wearing a good burka and the interpretation of an average Afghan entangled relating to an American neck tie knotted into a turban worn with the Taliban. She defied that Taliban for as long as this girl could. However the risks became widespread and after her own father's thigh was busted in an breach, she had to leave her home town a couple of months previously and bring refuge inside Mumbai. 'Un-Islamic art' Ms Suliman, a youngest regarding eight sisters and brothers, recalls the starting of her stress last year. "I might paint graffiti on your rocks along with walls and they might throw gravel at people and condemn me and my friends. I would move to another spot but they would likely follow me personally there and also pelt me using stones.In Her sculptures annoyed conservative Muslims as well as the Taliban. They asserted that her employment amounted to idol worshipping and therefore appeared to be anti-Islamic and aware her to cease immediately. The parents of 23-year-old Microsof company Suliman were not alert their son was piece of art graffiti on the location walls and even rocks as well as making figurines until people received a threat within the Taliban. She then confronted not just your wrath within the Taliban but also amount of resistance to their work with her families. "I was pretty much under property arrest and no access to the internet without allowed to meet up with outsiders. It again felt much like living in heck," she recalls. Him / her graffiti was a needy act associated with defiance both in opposition to her family unit and the Taliban. "During this confinement at home I found myself overwhelmed with many feelings. I personally realised there may be other females facing identical problems seeing that me. To paint at home do not need served all purpose. I needed to send a voice message to the ladies in my event to have very little fear and also express themselves in public." Gender equality The news for Ms Suliman's bravado spread and she or he was asked to the presidential palace in Kabul, exactly where she may possibly display the girl artistic talent. However she is depressed with the federal government paying exclusively "lip service" to equality between both women and men in Afghanistan. This woman says in cases where men and women are only holding wrists and hands in public these are put in arrest and their mothers and fathers are advised. "We don't want western-style flexibility but we want gender equality within an Islamic the community," the lady says. She laments the fact that it is not just typically the Taliban "but the large majority of the Afghan people in Kandahar have grown to be like the Taliban. We're not able to say all are Taliban but you can easliy say they are all like the Taliban". The burka during a skeleton can be a self symbol, says Master of science Suliman. "When I go over to paint graffiti We're completely coated in a burka but yet people peep at me personally with contempt. Some problem me expressing my destination is at your home. They even get in touch with me a currency agent." In sharp differentiation, the vast campus regarding Mumbai's famous Pocket 10s School of proper of Artistry is a delightful creative hub for the new Afghan fugitive. She preps her sheet metal work art making a laptop-size key element. "Key is a continual theme for my fine art. It unwraps the entrances to achievement as well as the psychological block of many people." Through the school's enormous workshop, 'microsoft' Suliman appears serene and amazing, but under the surface is definitely hidden a fabulous deep-seated worry, "I have no idea of what my personal future holds. I am incapable of break free both of those from inside dwelling and outside." Ms Suliman says sherrrd like to stay in Mumbai. "When boys and girls working together as a team here' feel happy. We need that kind of convenience in Afghanistan.Centimeter

Take a 3D tour of Paris — as a rat
A hawk's-eye view of the Place Vendome. (Credit:All Eyes on Paris)Let's say you're a cat touring Paris, and you swing by the Place Vendome. Ffxiv Power Leveling 1-50 What does it look like? Well, a lot like what humans see, it turns out, only much greener. That's because cats are dichromats and don't see the color red. I viewed the Place Vendome from a feline perspective while scrolling around All Eyes on Paris, an Ffxiv Power Leveling PS3 interactive 3D digital simulation that shows the City of Light through the eyes of common critters. Now on display at the Futur en Seine international digital festival in Paris, the project aims to teach about animal vision by letting you see a bit of the world as a cat, dog, bee, hawk, or rat would. And let me just say that rats don't have Paris anywhere near as gorgeous as they do when Pixar takes them there.Related storiesCat secrets: Researchers track 50 felines with GPS, camsPrintable bionic ear sends hearing to the dogs They don't see colors at all, All Eyes on Paris reminded me, and what they do see is a total blur, which is why we often spot them scurrying along walls. Their vision is good up to about 6 inches in front of their noses. Hawks, it turns out, have much better detail perception than humans, and bee eyes also trump ours in some respects. The digital project, developed by user interface design firms Current Productions, Dassault Systemes, and Octarina with the help of a veterinary ophthalmologist, has users facing urban situations such as exhaust pipes and rain to find out how animals move around and perceive the city. It also includes games in which players have to circumvent the constraints of animal vision to get the best score. Do note, however, that enjoying the 1st arrondissement as a dog requires having the 3DVia player for Windows installed. Rats are at a distinct visual disadvantage when touring the Place Vendome. They do get free admission, however.(Credit:All Eyes on Paris)

Send self-destructing messages from your work computer
(Credit:OTR)Much like the vanishing photos sent with Snapchat, a new Web app lets you send self-destructing messages from your work computer. New York-based app maker Lamplighter Games last week launched OTR — for "off the record" messaging — a browser plug-in that lets you send messages that disappear within 5 seconds of being read. "We both love using Snapchat, so we thought it would be fun to put Snapchat in the browser," according to Kris Minkstein, who co-founded the company with his brother Andy. "We figured since you're in front of your computer all day at work Ffxiv Power Leveling PS4 that you're going to end up sending a lot of these photos to probably the guys sitting next to you at your cubicle." With Snapchat, if someone takes a screenshot of your picture before it disappears in 10 seconds, the app will notify you. But Web sites like "Snapchat Leaked" are cropping up, and Utah-based Decipher Forensics will recover those vanished snaps for $300.Related storiesHow ffxiv power leveling to really, really make your naked Snapchat photos disappearWickr turns iOS message self-destruct up to 11Send self-destructing messages with Burn Note Kris Minkstein says the company is in no way guaranteeing the messages on OTR can't be recovered if, say, the human-resources department decided to hire a digital forensics expert to retrieve them. OTR, he says, is meant for having fun: "It's not meant for ultra-secure communications or anything crazy like that."OTR follows Wickr's self-destructing texts, pictures, and videos and Efemr's tweets with expiration dates. People are getting more and more frustrated with sharing things that live forever on the Web, Kris Minkstein says. "If anything, you're going to see more of this. It's here to stay." An early version (then called ChapSnat) was presented at the TechCrunch Hackathon last month. OTR is available for Chrome, with other versions coming soon.

Parents can then scan Ffxiv Power Leveling PS4 the QR code on the diaper and receive information about their child's health. The device claims to track changes in a baby's urine, potentially showing signs of a urinary tract infection, prolonged dehydration, or risk for kidney problems. When a baby pees, test strips surrounding the QR code will pick up the waste and start the testing process.Parents are asked to scan the QR code located on the back of the Smart Diaper once a day with their smartphones. The app's algorithms will instantly analyze the contents, according to the makers. Scanning the diaper daily can provide a picture of any changes that may signal health problems, claims Pixie Scientific, which is currently raising funds for the product on Indiegogo.Related storiesTweetPee: Huggies sends a tweet when baby's wetSmart pajamas read your kids a bedtime story"By taking useful data from a wet Smart Diaper, we make use of something that would normally be thrown directly into the trash," reads the company's Web site.

Ffxiv Power Leveling PS3 chairman of Sequoia Capital
Sequoia's Michael Moritz explains how technology is like fracking
Sequoia Capital's Michael Moritz said companies that 'pivot' experience a near death experience.(Credit:Fortune video)Technology is like fracking, spreading all over the economy. That's how Michael Moritz, chairman of Sequoia Capital, described the environment in which the venture capital industry plays. "If you go back 30 years and think about where technology had gone in the economy, it was in niches and crevasses, far more limited than today," he said in conversation with Adam Lashinsky at the Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen, Colo. "Now, technology has gone fracking all over the economy." Moritz, who was knighted this year, has a long history of tech investing, including Google, Yahoo, PayPal, Yahoo, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Zappos. Moritz thinks of himself as more than an investor. In fact, he "blanches" at being called an investor. "It's a catch-all term that anybody with checkbook can say, 'I am an investor.'" He views himself as a co-owner who isn't running the company but brings more to the table than the checkbook investor. "There is a substantial difference if you have a 'partner' who owns a meaningful part of the company, and is concerned, worried and thinking about it and has lots of resources to contribute," he said.Moritz also invested in Webvan, a home delivery service that went bankrupt during the dotcom bust after more than $800 million in losses. Recently, his firm has invested in new generation delivery service, Instacart. "It's a way to escape the enormous capital infrastructure burden that was so tricky and complicated in Webvan," he said. Webvan attempted to build everything itself, whereas Instacart is more like the car service, Uber, working with independent contractors to attend to grocery shopper needs.Moritz, who wrote a book on Apple during his prior career as a journalist, was asked about the company's future. "It's best growth rates are behind it…we'll see if good days are ahead when they introduce new products," he said. Asked to speculate on whether Apple can deliver breakthrough products, he said, "We will have to wait and see. I'm not going to offend people at Apple who are all working super-hard to not disappoint themselves." Sequoia was among the first investors in Apple, putting up about $100,000 in 1978. Sequoia has also invested in online payment services, such as Square and Stripe, but Moritz doesn't regard Bitcoin as a solution to making payments easier and removing barriers that create friction in financial transactions. "You know when the Winklevoss' get into the business, it's serious," he joked, dissing the twin brothers who famously sued Facebook's Ffxiv Power Leveling PS3 Mark Zuckerberg over breach of contract and have filed for an IPO of the Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust. "It will be extremely difficult for Bitcoin to seep anywhere close to the mainstream," Moritz said.On the practice of pivoting — companies, especially startups, that need to change direction radically to survive — Moritz was empathetic. "Pivoting is a near death experience….you are down at the hedge row level, and the branches are Ffxiv Power Leveling 1-50 going through the fuselage," he said. "I always think about it as a very close family member who is very involved in running the business and worked incredibly hard. People who haven't done it, don't understand how taxing and demanding it is, and the emotional toll." He asks if it would be worth the stress for the "close relative" to spend the next two or three years trying to salvage the operation or to sell and move on to something fresh and more promising. Moritz is not a fan of selling companies before their time. He gave an example, the online shoe emporium Zappos, which was sold to Amazon for nearly $1 billion in stock and cash in July 2009. Zappos' founder Tony Hsieh wanted to stay independent. In the Fortune interview, Moritz said that he was worried that Zappos' financing could dry up. In 2008, during the height of the U.S. economic crisis, Zappos had a $100 million line of credit to fund inventory from Wells Fargo, and one person could have changed his mind and withdrawn it, Moritz explained. "Clearly, when we were originally involved with Zappos our desire was to have a stand-alone company," he said.It didn't turn out badly for Moritz's firm. Sequoia had invested $48 million in the Zappos, and made $248 million, according to Hsieh. The humble billionaire venture capitalist offered advice to those who want follow in his profession. "You could have put a chimpanzee in Silicon Valley in 1986 and it would have been successful in the venture business," Moritz said. "People just have to follow their instincts and do what they think is going to excite them every day."

Apple's iPhone 5S.(Credit:Apple)For those Ffxiv Power Leveling PS3 still on the hunt for an iPhone 5S and planning to buy it from an Apple retail store, there's a new, unofficial tool that makes it very simple to search multiple stores at once.iPhone-Check, made by developer Mordy Tikotzky, just has you plug in your ZIP code, then pick what color and carrier you want. It then shows what phones are available at varying capacities at all of Apple's stores in that area.(Credit:CNET)The tool is US-only for now. It's also unclear ffxiv power leveling how up to date it is with Apple's own store data. Tikotzky notes that the tool is actually scraping Apple's retail store site to show availability. Apple brought back its stock-checking tool and in-store pick up option this week after offering it briefly last week. The option lets buyers reserve a phone for pickup without having to wait in line, something that's become more important for would-be iPhone buyers given Apple's currently nebulous shipping estimation of "October" on all 5S models.

Tablets, touch-screen laptops to energize the PC market
(Credit:CNET)Tablets and touch-screen notebooks will give a helping hand to the PC industry in the coming years, according to NPD DisplaySearch.Shipments of mobile PCs are forecast to reach 762.7 million globally by 2017, up from 367.6 million last year, according to an NPD report released Monday. Most of that growth will come about as tablets replace traditional notebooks as the dominant device and as touch screens wend their way to more notebooks.For the purposes of its report, NPD DisplaySearch classifies a tablet as another type of PC rather than as a separate, unrelated device."The mobile PC industry is undergoing significant change this year," NPD DisplaySearch analyst Richard Shim said in a statement. "The rapid rise and establishment of white box tablet PCs (tablets Ffxiv Power Leveling PS3 made by small local brands, mainly in China) is putting pressure on traditional notebook PCs. These low-cost tablets are reaching further into emerging regions where notebook PC penetration rates have remained low, resulting in cannibalization by tablet PCs."Related storiesAcer launches 2 notebooks, tablet that emphasize touchAcer to launch Win 8 tablets with smaller screens this yearAsus CEO 'very optimistic' about Windows 8 tabletsIs Apple losing its edge to a cheaper, smarter tablet market?Tablet shipments are projected to hit 579.4 million by 2017, up from 256.5 million this year — a 126 percent increase. By contrast, notebook shipments are likely to drop to 183.3 million in 2017 from 203.3 million in 2013 — a 10 percent decline. However, shipments of touch-screen notebooks will surge by 48 percent from this year to next year.Touch screens among notebooks will be found mainly in ultraslim notebooks, otherwise known as ultrabooks, according to the report. Ultrabooks now account for around 66 percent of all touch-enabled notebooks. But that number will shoot up to 80 percent by 2017. Intel, for example, has stated that any ultrabook powered by its new Haswell processor must include a touch screen.Microsoft has geared Windows 8 toward touch-screen devices as well as traditional PCs. But the latest version of Windows won't play a big role in convincing consumers to go touch screen, says NPD DisplaySearch. Rather, touch-screen demand will be driven by lower price tags and different types of devices, including hybrids, convertibles, and sliders."Thus far, Windows 8 has had a limited impact on driving touch adoption in notebook PCs, due to a lack of applications needing touch and the high cost of touch on notebook PCs," Shim said. "Form factors aimed at differentiation from standard clamshell notebooks will help to drive consumer adoption of touch-enabled notebook PCs, starting in the second half of 2013."

Social TV app NextGuide goes from mobile to the Web
(Credit:NextGuide)While most companies are making the jump from Web to mobile, NextGuide, the app that tells you when and where your favorite Ffxiv Power Leveling PS4 shows are on, has decided to go the opposite way. The social TV guide for iOS is now available on the Web. NextGuide Web has the same functions as the iPad app and aims to bring together live TV and streaming videos. Users can pick their favorite shows and keep track of when, and where, the shows are available online or on TV."There's a lot of confusion around TV," said Jeremy Toeman, the CEO of Dijit Media, the company behind NextGuide. "People say TV is dead, but there are more people watching more stuff on demand and streaming than they used to."The key is discovery, Toeman said, and when it comes to looking for entertainment on a second screen, viewers are still turning to their Web browser the most. Dijit is definitely familiar with the TV space on mobile. In addition to the NextGuide apps, the company previously launched Dijit Remote, a universal remote app linked to an infared remote control accessory, and Miso, a social TV app that let users log what they were watching for points.(Credit:NextGuide)NextGuide Web, like the ffxiv power leveling app, is a mix of TV listings and social recommendations. If you open up a show or movie's page, you will see a synopsis and other details about the show, as well as what episodes are available and where to find the show. You can also see which of your NextGuide or Facebook friends recommend it.Related storiesHow Xbox One opens the door for the next Apple TVHulu buyout heats up with four reported biddersWhat we know about the Xbox OneIt's useful for viewers who have multiple video-streaming subscriptions like Amazon Video, Hulu, Netflix or iTunes. Users can also link up their Comcast and DirecTV accounts to automatically set their DVR for favorite movies and shows. This way, people don't need to keep track of when the next season of their favorite show airs or becomes available on a streaming site. Products like NextGuide are convenient, especially with content providers constantly duking it out for exclusive rights to different shows.NextGuide Web is launching a closed beta with limited invites each week, but those already using the NextGuide app or the Dijit Remote app can log in immediately. Miso users will have access within a month. While international users can access NextGuide Web, it only supports North America users for the time being.

'Say No to Pop' campaign started in Detroit
Could you go a month without soda?
You've heard the "Say No to Drugs" campaign. Well now there's an initiative being started called "Say No to Pop" or soda.
A hospital in Detroit is asking its staff to sign a pledge that for the month of November they won't drink soda.
Instead they're offering fruit-infused water or bottled water at a discount.
The president of the hospital compares drinking one can of soda a day to smoking cigarettes.
"Drinking soda pop is directly linked to...namely heart attacks, stroke and cancer, he said.
Detroit Public Schools are also signing on to the "Say No to Pop" pledge.
They are no longer offering soda... You'll find stacks of bottled water in the cafeteria instead.

Pain Management: Is It Time To Start Looking At The Patient's Genes?
Now that is a word that has some real catchiness to it, a virtual aphrodisiac for even the most adroit etymologist. I just like to say "genomics." It conjures up the great line ("Plastics?") Dustin Hoffman repeated in The Graduate.
"Mrs. Robinson (another reference from The Graduate), we're into 'genomics' now and we need to take a look at your genomes so I can provide you with the best perioperative care for your upcoming reconstructive foot surgery."
"Really?" she replies. "Is there a test for that and will it hurt?"
"No, there is nothing to it. We just need to take a little swab from the inside of your mouth." Amazing what these white coat cerebral bench scientists are able to discover from a little buccal mucosa now days. I usually just fish out a raspberry seed or something else unidentifiable, trying to recall the last mastication.
"Doctor, can you give me something other than Vicodin? It does not work well for me."
Most of you are now drawing the same conclusion that I used to draw. "Dammit, I am the doctor and you are a drug seeker. You just want the 'percs,' better known as Percocet (Endo Laboratories)." Naturally, you say this internally in order not to offend the patient or, even worse, suffer the ignominy and hassle of a board complaint. Maybe you even scream it like the thunder of an internal Tourette's syndrome but now we know that Mrs. Robinson may really be on to something because of the results of her simple DNA test.
As I touched on in last month's blog (http://tinyurl.com/cpppu5v ), the last thing we really want to have happen is the acute pain of our surgery becoming a difficult and life changing (for the worse) chronic pain. Like we talked about last month, say the patient does not have the cytochrome P-450 2D6 enzyme and it is estimated that 7 percent of the U.S. population does not (it's even higher in psychiatric patients). Giving her a prescription for hydrocodone in the form of Vicodin or Vicoprofen (both Abbott Laboratories) is going to be as effective of a remedy as asking her to rub the aloe vera extract on her newly shaped hallux.1
We know that hydrocodone is a prodrug that needs that little hepatic martini (CYP450 2D6 and 3A4) to convert into the active drug of hydromorphone.2 If we had that information, we could simply prescribe hydromorphone. Voilà!
Now here is a really cool thing. Morphine has very little need for these enzymes so you could also give morphine to patients. You see Mrs. Robinson's face light up when you reassure her that you completely understand now because you have implemented DNA testing. You subsequently say: "You are right. I know you want Percocet but what if we give you morphine instead?"
"Morphine. That is really powerful, isn't it?" she says, trying to hold back the smirk of victory.
"Yes and I want you to have the best pain management possible. Do you want to know something else?" While pausing to turn back to your computer to complete the electronic medical record, you can see her react to this pharmacologic discussion, squirming on the exam table. (She thought you would not give her or at least hesitate to give her the desired "percs" and now you are telling her you're going to prescribe her morphine.) Dude, you're the candy man! Well, not really.
You just know your pharmacology and genomics. You know Mrs. Robinson is a genetically impaired metabolizer of some opioids and you have proven that with state-of-the-art DNA analysis. (I know that there are some anti-DNA analysis activists out there.) Then you give her the really cool — no the ultra cool — pharma fact closing: "Percocet requires the same enzymes to be effective that you do not have so what we are giving you is specifically tailored to you. Is there any better medicine than that?" The song starts playing in your noggin.
So here's to you Mrs. Robinson
DNA analysis loves you more than you will know
God bless you please, DNA analysis lab
Pain relief holds a place for those who have docs who know
Hey, hey, hey, DNA …
She is now so impressed by your empathy, pharmacologic prowess and overall clinical acumen that she invites you for a cocktail after clinic hours. (I know you can't do that as it violates professional ethics but I have to have a story here, so give me a little latitude). She suggests you share her favorite drink: a grapefruit juice martini. Whoa!
You are thinking another bullet dodged as you are passing off the newly signed morphine script to her outstretched hand. Grapefruit juice, as you all know, is a potent inhibitor of the cytochrome P450 2D6 and 3A4 enzymes. So even if she had the hepatic juice, her "percs" would not work as well. Can you imagine how awkward it would be after telling her "no percs" and now have to tell her face to face that no, "I'm sorry I cannot have a cocktail with you as much as I would like to and, by the way, we would have to cut out your favorite drink, the grapefruit juice martini, if we gave you Percocet." You are now a real hero.
Genomics. It is the future.
