WASHINGTON — Its been a busy first week for New Jerseys newest senator, who so far has shown hes more interested in getting to know his colleagues and learning the ropes than basking in the national media spotlight.
Democratic Sen. Cory Booker was sworn into office Oct. 31, replacing Republican Sen. Jeff Chiesa, who had been appointed to serve temporarily after Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg died in June.
At the weekly party lunches on Tuesday, where reporters armed with notebooks and digital recorders stake out lawmakers, Booker left through a back exit. He gave only brief answers to reporters who trailed after him before he stepped into a members-only elevator.
Im a championship spelunker, so I now know the tunnels, Booker said Friday, referring to the labyrinth of underground subways and tunnels connecting the U.S. Capitol and Senate office buildings.
But Booker hasnt done a complete about-face. He continued to fire off a steady stream of tweets throughout the week.
On Wednesday, he tweeted about attending his first hearing, in which the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs subcommittee on emergency management discussed recovery efforts after Superstorm Sandy.
Booker had to speak from behind a makeshift nameplate. He won a few laughs when he thanked Sen. Mark Begich of Alaska, the subcommittees chairman, for giving him more time to ask questions.
The Senate is a generous institution, I am finding, Booker said.
He IS new, Begich joked in response.
On Thursday, Booker tweeted: Day off to a great start, from a good workout to now continuing to meet 1 on 1 with Senate colleagues to learn as much as I can from them.
Booker said hes spent the week getting to know colleagues by talking to them in the Senate gym, attending the morning prayer breakfast and sitting down with lawmakers in their offices.
Almost every senator I talk to, my mind gets buzzing with things to do, Booker said. He conceded that hes had to narrow in and focus on whats important to his constituents.
The key urgency right now is focus on whats important in New Jersey and deliver, he said. Deliver, deliver, deliver.
Booker also got his first shot presiding over the Senate as the chambers president pro-tem, an experience he described as darn awesome.
I mean, come on, just a few weeks ago I was mayor of a big city and working on problems and challenges, and the next moment, I am a United States senator and presiding over one of the most important governmental institutions, said Booker, 44. He said he was awe-struck listening to senators speak who have been in office since he was a child.
And theyre all referring to me as Mr. President, he said with a grin.
Booker did rely heavily on Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough for guidance during his time holding the gavel, and he was spotted thumbing through a book showing head shots of senators.
Also Thursday, Booker co-sponsored his first bill, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which would outlaw workplace discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans. The bill passed 64-32 but faces an uncertain future in the GOP-controlled House.
Booker celebrated the vote by tweeting ENDA passes!!! and fist-bumping Human Rights Campaign President Chad Griffin as he exited the Senate floor.
He then joined Democratic colleagues at the White House to talk to the president and vice president about the troubled roll-out of the Affordable Care Act.
I have a lot of concerns, Booker said. Tens of thousands of New Jerseyans are now in this point of fear and concern. Were hearing a lot about it.
But on the flip side of that, weve actually gotten calls from people who are thrilled, he added.
Booker said the discussion at the White House gave him confidence that in the next month or two, most of the problems, not all of the problems, are going to be behind us.
Booker wrapped up his first week with a live question-and-answer session on his Facebook page Thursday evening and a meeting in his office with Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate on Friday morning.
I didnt want to come down here and be a firebrand, a partisan, Booker told three local reporters Friday, standing in the midst of his sparse Senate office. I wanted to come down here and make relationships. And eight days in, Im off to a good start.

P6-M worth mining equipment seized-A A +A
Wednesday, January 8, 2014
THE Cagayan de Oro City Local Environment and Natural Resources Office (Clenro) confiscated mining equipment worth some P6 million during an operation conducted by a composite team of government agencies on Monday.
After receiving a tip from an informant that backhoes allegedly used for mining are operating in Barangays Tumpagon in Cagayan de Oro City and Kauyonan in Opol town, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB)-Northern Mindanao, through Regional Director Rex Monsanto, called for a meeting to launch operations in the area.
On January 2, Clenro received a tip about barrels of diesel gas being transported to the hinterland communities.
The agencies involved in the operation were the MGB-Northern Mindanao, Community Investigative Support–Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIS-CIDG), and the Philippine National Police–Public Safety Battalion (PNP-PSB) in the region.
Sulog: One Sendong is Enough, a non-government organization and environment advocate based in the region, was also present during the raid.
As a result of the meeting, the group decided to initiate the raid early morning of January 6.
"We started the operation around 5 a.m. in the morning last Monday," said Edwin Dael, chief of Clenro.
Dael said they divided the big group into three teams, and they were assigned in the villages of Tumpagon, Kauyonan, and Mainit in Iligan city.
He added that the team headed by Monsanto nabbed two backhoes with an estimated price of P3 million to P5 million each, and 10 water pumps that cost around P8,000 each.
Ralph Abragan, vice chairman of Sulog, added that the backhoes' brands are Hitachi and Hyundai.
Dael said the backhoes and 10 water pumps were seized at sitio Looc, Mainit, while the other four pumps were confiscated at Tumpagon and Kauyonan.
The mining equipment units, which were allegedly used for illegal mining operations in the hinterlands, are believed to be owned by Wintech, which is based in Iligan City.
However, Dael said it is possible that the mining operators were just renting the equipment from the said company.
He said the operation also confiscated around a hundred meters of expensive suction hoses.
Due to the discovery of the alleged illegal mining operations, Dael said Clenro will try to request the city's mining regulatory board to create an ordinance to address the problem of illegal mining in the hinterlands.
"The City Council should come up with an ordinance that regulates the transportation of water pumps and huge amount of diesel gas in the hinterlands," said Dael.
He added that the equipment like water pumps should undergo inspection before transporting them to the hinterlands.
Dael said it is also possible to pass an ordinance that will require a permit from the city's agriculture office before such equipment can be transported.
He said they are set to talk with petroleum suppliers to explore options on how to regulate the supply of diesel gas for illegal mining operations in the upland areas.
Dael said Cagayan de Oro is a convenient entry point of illegal mining operators to the mountains.
"If they (illegal mining operators) will set foot in Iligan City to the hinterlands, they will have to spend more," he said.
Monsanto, in a local television interview, said the MGB will study if the equipment caught were allegedly used for mining operations is illegal or not.
Dael said the backhoes are now under the custody of the village officials in Mainit. (Anjo J. Bacarisas)

Bought "Top Tomato" and it didn't even pass the hand test. I dotted some on the back of my hand, made sure it was a thin even coat, let it dry for ~5 minutes until it looked thoroughly mattified, and rubbed with a finger. It smeared immediately and a couple more rubs removed all of it.
On reflection I thought maybe this could be because I had sunscreen on the back of my hand, so I cleaned my skin carefully with a baby wipe and tried again. Same result.
I'm looking for something like the Maybelline 24-hour lipcolors, with a less sad color selection. This is not it.

This has been hit or miss with me. I have 3 shades, 025, 055, and 040. Sorry I don't remember the names. 025 and 055 are decent. They are smooth when they go on but then dry out. But I have found if I really more than once the color piles up around the edges of my lips and looks bad. 040 is the worst lipstick I have ever used. How does it come off so quickly yet stay on only around the edges of my lips so much I have to scrub to get it off?? Also it applies really unevenly. I'll use up the ok shades, but I definitely won't repurchase.

This was amazing. A tube of Royal Raisin lasted me almost five months, for a few days every week. It goes on smoothly, doesn't dry the lips out, and LASTS ALL DAY. That can't be emphasized enough. It is a little sticky, but if you just leave it for a minute or two after drying, the stickiness won't be a problem. The color itself is also very vibrant and natural-looking, without being too dark (which is difficult to find on my dark skin).
I only wish the applicator was more pointed so that I didn't have to worry about using lipliner to keep myself from "coloring outside the lines" (which can then stain and last if you're not careful about checking application).
I can't wait to try out the other colors!

This goes on smoothly and easily. As it is drying, it is extremely sticky and transfers for a long time. The color is long lasting, but it gets really flaky and gross looking if you don't continue to apply a balm regularly. I don't hate it, the color is nice and almost iridescent, but I probably won't buy it again because I own other products by revlon and others that don't flake and crack and dry, so it's just not sensible to me. I felt like it made my lips look old. Lasting power it does have, in this case however, it's for better or for worse.

This is my go to lipstick. As a uni student I'm always eating out. I can eat very oily foods and still have my lipstick untouched. I used to use the superstay lipcolor by maybelline but it has been discontinued. I'd have to stay revlon does it better. The color is light and not too overpowering for everyday use. I find that it only flakes if I try to layer it on top of another lipstick or try to build the color. I have this in nude, platinum petal and precious pink (my favourite which I just bought today). I don't usual wear pinks as I'm more reds or nude but the colour is quite subtle but still very noticeable. I wouldn't say it lasts 24hrs but it does last all day and night of drinks with only 1 touch up. I would like to add that it does feel sticky but if you touch your lips it's not sticky. It does take a little getting use to because it feels drying but it actually isn't for me.

Ugh! I bought this lipstick and found it to be really sticky, also drying and flaky. I bought the colour, 'Brilliant Bordeaux' which is still a lovely colour, but what a shame about the formula! It should just be a normal lipstick!

I am going to try some of the application tips I've seen here for this product because I LOVE the color. I got Best Bubbly and it's a gorgeous nude on me. I usually like a little more pigmentation, but this looks very polished and professional.
Unfortunately, the way I applied it, it felt so weird after a while that I couldn't stand it. I'm familiar with lip paints and I was OK with letting it sit and dry (for a pretty long time actually). It requires patience, but the long wear you get out of it is the payoff.
Except with this product, it about glued my lips together, even an hour or two after application. I tried putting balm on top, and then the color sort of balled up.
Eh - formulations like this can be fiddly. I think the color is worth a few more attempts!

I'm not gonna lie, I just bought this today and I cannot describe how ineffably terrible this stuff tastes/smells. I have it in Ultimate Orchid, I always wanted to trya lavender lip and the color is so pretty and unique! It's a bright lavender and it stays and stains so well. Revlon lip products never disappoint me, in all honesty. It is a bit sticky though, but dries fairly quickly.

I bought this lipcolor in Miracle Mauve, and I love it so much I'm considering buying a back up just in case they discontinue it (Revlon: DON'T DISCONTINUE!!! PLEASE!!!)
Let me start out by saying that, were I to choose a darker color, I don't know if it would wear as well. This shade is about two shades brighter/warmer/pinker/darker than my lip color, so when it does start to wear off, it does not show.
I do find it drying, but then, I find EVERYTHING drying. I'm one of those people who has multiple lip balms in every room of the house. :D I do wear this with a clear gloss (also by Revlon, I use their Superlustrous gloss in Shine City which I'm not sure they make anymore), which I don't mind one bit- I WANTED a stain, which I could reapply balm/gloss over at will, without having to worry about it. I read the reviews before buying this product and pretty much knew what to expect.
This turned out to be a perfect "everyday" color. I can eat hot wings for lunch and not worry that by the end of my lunch break, I look ridiculous until I can run to the locker room to fix my lipstick. I can eat and drink (which I do carefully out of habit when I'm wearing any sort of lip color) without worry. I reapply gloss when it gets dry (without a mirror even) and don't have to be concerned that it's coming off (and it hardly leaves any stain on the gloss applicator, even!)
It also doesn't bleed at the edges of my lips (I usually wore a tinted balm before and sheesh! If I wasn't careful, by the end of the day I'd have a smudge of tinted balm ALL THE WAY AROUND my lips!!!! This does not happen with this, and since I'm applying a CLEAR gloss on top, I don't need to worry about making a mess of my face if I don't happen to have a mirror available.)
One thing I will say is that the application of a balm or gloss on top of this lipstick does reduce the transfer-resistance and seems to reduce the longevity of it, which stands to reason since most of those products contain oil, and oil is what is typically used to remove longwearing products. If I didn't have the sort of lips that became horribly uncomfortable without being coated in balm/gloss all of the time, this product might well stand up to its (and other reivewers') claims of not wearing off at all after so many hours, but that is not how I wear this lipstick, which likely has an impact on longevity.
All that being said, I apply a dot in the center of each lip, spread it with my finger (like a stain), let it dry (yes, it DOES feel weird) and then apply clear gloss on top. So far I've had to reapply once (only once) in 10 hours' time, with eating and drinking, and I could have gotten away without doing so, but I have OCD and wanted it to be perfect! :) I also was totally NOT careful while eating my greasy Chinese takeout.
At some point I'll probably try a different color (I was eyeing up the darker shades but decided to go with one I didn't already have a close match for in another formula), I'm curious as to how the darker shades wear compared to the lighter ones, but I love, love, LOVE this color!
I also think they may have changed the packaging recently, as mine DOES seem to have the little thing to prevent dispensing too much product, which other reviewers complained about it not having. There's also very little scent to speak of in this, and what IS there, is gone as soon as it dries.
ETA: I love this stuff more and more. Since purchasing this I have to practically force myself to wear anything else. It's just that good. It doesn't dry my lips out, actually, even the odd feeling of wearing this has gone away now, I don't know if I've gotten used to it or what, but it's only a tiny bit sticky and doesn't feel dry or like my lips are coated at all now. I still do prefer to wear a clear gloss over this...but I found it interesting and worth noting that the particular "coated" characteristic had diminished with time.

While I agree with many reviews that say this lip colour is drying, this is a find that really surprised me. At first I was bit put off by the applicator, sticky texture and odd smell, but completely won over when I found out just how fantastic the staying power is! I can eat, drink, and ignore it all day, and at the end of the day I can still see most of the colour. It seems to fade pretty evenly too, so none of that coloured-edge look you can get from other lipsticks fading.
To offset the dryness, I usually apply a lip balm over the top, or a very light layer of balm before applying the colour so that it doesn't prevent the liquid lipstick from fixing. I find the best technique to applying this lipstick is to get as little colour on the brush as possible. Apply a 2 dots of colour, one on the center of each lip, and use the applicator to spread the colour evenly from there. Once on the lip, it does get tacky at first as it dries, I either blot it with a tissue if I can't be bothered waiting or let it dry before applying a balm, but once completely dry, it gives great colour, looks natural andm ost importantly stays on.
I have 2 colours "Stella Sunrise" a red-ish coral with silver shimmer and "Superb Sangria" a dark wine red with gold shimmer. Both are great colours, and i've even had success mixing and wearing the two. They were also very cheap, around $7 NZD (about $5US I think?) and I use them almost every day. or under another lipstick so that when that fades, my lips won't look naked. I'm always on the lookout on these at make-up sales because I'm keen to pick up more colours. They are my favourite lipstick so far, purely because I'm lazy and just LOVE their amazing staying power.

I don't suffer from hair loss. But my hair has always been thin and limp since I was a child. I was advised to go to a hair loss clinic rather than a hair salon for my hair extensions and I am glad I did. I now have the look I always wanted to have. Rich, thick, full hair with body and weight. This was money well spent. I only wish I had made the decision to go to Fresno Hair Solutions years ago.

Fresno Hair Solutions promised me a longer, fuller, shinier and healthy look to my hair that would be both safe and natural and they delivered. Now I understand, finally, how fun and enjoyable hair can be.

I have a new appreciation for how important hair is to how one looks and feels. My fine hair has always just hung straight down. Now I have thickness and wave. I can do so much more with my hair. Fresno Hair Solutions really cares about how their clients look and feel.

I thought hair extensions was for movie stars. I thought a look like you see on the posters was prohibitive by the cost. Wrong. Hair extensions are for any woman who desires longer and healthier looking hair. Expensive? Not for what you get at Fresno Hair Solutions.

Low Magnitude Mechanical Stimuli Effects on Bone Structure in ESRD

The proposed 6 month pilot and feasibility randomized trial will evaluate LMMS as an anabolic stimulus to bone in 30 adults on maintenance hemodialysis. The intervention will consist of 20 minute daily sessions in the home standing on an active LMMS platform or a placebo device that emits an audible hum suggestive of an active device. Each device contains an electronic monitor that documents adherence. The study will examine trabecular bone volume fraction (bone volume/total volume, BV/TV %) and architecture using microMRI, and cortical volumetric BMD and dimensions using QCT at baseline and 6 months. The hypothesis is that active LMMS will results in greater mean changes in trabecular and cortical parameters in hemodialysis patients. The proposed study will test the feasibility of conducting the intervention in dialysis patients and will generate preliminary data on rates of change in trabecular and cortical parameters in the active and placebo groups.

Device: Low magnitude mechanical stimuli
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a multifactorial and pervasive disorder in chronic kidney disease (CKD). As renal failure progresses, ensuing abnormal parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and mineral metabolism result in sclerosis of trabecular bone, thinning of cortical bone, and increased cortical porosity.(1) Despite the widespread use of phosphate binders and vitamin D therapies, hip fracture rates and mortality risk following fractures are markedly greater in dialysis patients, compared with the general population.
The vast majority of studies of bone loss in CKD relied on dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measures of bone mineral density (BMD). However, DXA summarizes the total bone mass within the projected bone area, concealing disease effects on trabecular and cortical bone. For example, in high-turnover ROD, increased trabecular volume may offset cortical bone loss, resulting in normal or increased areal-BMD despite poor bone strength. Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) enables discrete assessment of trabecular and cortical volumetric BMD and dimensions. However, this is an incomplete solution in the setting of CKD because QCT does not assess trabecular architecture. Micro-magnetic resonance imaging (µMRI) provides a non-invasive technique to assess trabecular architecture. The µMRI data are quantified by 3D digital processing methods, such as topological analysis, to determine trabecular properties. Our pilot study of µMRI in dialysis patients revealed significant reductions in cortical thickness and suggested deterioration in the trabecular network. This innovative imaging modality may be uniquely suited to the assessment of ROD therapies.
Mechanical forces on the skeleton arise from muscle contraction and these forces generate signals that modulate bone architecture. Animal studies demonstrated that daily exposure to low magnitude mechanical stimuli (LMMS) enhanced trabecular and cortical bone quantity and quality. A randomized trial of LMMS in post-menopausal women demonstrated that LMMS were associated with increased DXA BMD, without adverse effects. LMMS may be uniquely suited to restore cortical and trabecular bone structure in ROD.
The study will enroll adults, ages 21-65 years, treated with maintenance hemodialysis at UPENN. The study will exclude the elderly and subjects with major co-morbid conditions in order to increase the likelihood that subjects will complete the 6 month intervention without significant interruptions due to hospitalization.

Mamadou Diarra scored 21 points and De'Andre Haskins added 14 to lead Chaminade past Carleton (Minn.) 65-60 in a nonconference men's basketball game yesterday at McCabe Gym.
The Silverswords (5-2) shot 57 percent from the floor against the Knights (0-3).
Brigham Young-Hawaii's Marques Whippy turned in his third consecutive double-double with 20 points and 10 rebounds in an 84-56 nonconference basketball victory over Oakland City on Saturday night at the Cannon Activities Center.
Jet Chang added 18 points and Junior Ale had 12 on four 3-pointers for the Seasiders (3-1). The Mighty Oaks dropped to 1-5.
EDMONTON, Alberta » Former Utah State star Anthony Calvillo led Montreal to its second straight Grey Cup title and third in nine years, completing 29 of 42 passes for 336 yards in the Alouettes' 21-18 victory over the Saskatchewan Roughriders last night.
Last year in Calgary, the Alouettes won on Damon Duval's 33-yard field goal with no time left after Saskatchewan was called for too many men on the field on Duval's apparent game-ending miss from 43 yards. Montreal has played in eight of the last 11 Canadian Football League title games, also winning in 2002.
Former Hawaii star Ryan Grice-Mullen did not handle the ball for Saskatchewan despite being the punt return specialist in the previous game, when he muffed a punt in the final seconds.

Severe weather
Record Flooding in Pensacola, Fl.
- dsashin, CNN iReport producer
It was just crazy. I kept to the central parts of Pensacola trying to check on the shop and friends. I couldn't make a straight shot to anywhere. Streets were rivers and cars that didn't make for very good boats. It was even stranger to see stranded cars left in the middle of roads with no standing waters. Then I realized "OH,,,these cars WERE in flooded areas just a few hours earlier."
Even after countless hurricanes, never have we seen so much rain in such a short period of time.

If I have my years right, in cowher's last draft... Santonio Holmes & Anthony Smith, the hot-dog Syracuse were his first 2 picks... Just saying...
2013 MNF Executive Champion!
1. C.J. Mosley LB Alabama
2. Jordan Matthews WR Vanderbilt
3. (comp) Philip Gaines CB Rice
4. Arthur Lynch TE Georgia
5. Ross Cockrell CB Duke
5. (comp) Derrick Hopkins DT Virginia Tech
6. Josh Mauro DE Stanford
6. (comp) Shaquil Barrett OLB Colorado State
7. Quincy Enunwa WR Nebraska
even the comments bray made about putting on weight were completely ludicrous. He claims that he could only afford the dollar menu which is complete BS. UTs training table is as good as any in the nation and bray comes from money. I hardly believe his parents would let him go hungry. The real reason he never put on any weight is that he never made an effort to get better or stronger. Its just more excuses from this kid.
I'm with ghost, turn in a blank card before you draft this bum.
The Steelers also spent a lot of time talking to Geno Smith, but we all know that we aren't drafting him. We were likely getting insights about Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey. Similarly, the Steelers spending a lot of time talking to Tyler Bray likely means that they were fishing for nuggets about Cordarelle Patterson, Justin Hunter, and possibly even Da'Rick Rogers.
Final Ruthless Mock:
1.22 CB Marcus Peters, 6'0" 197 lbs., Washington
2.56 FS Damarious Randall, 5'11" 196 lbs., Arizona State
3.87 TE Clive Walford, 6'4" 251 lbs., Miami
4.121 DE Henry Anderson, 6'6" 294 lbs., Stanford
5.160 WR Titus Davis, 6'1" 196 lbs., Central Michigan
6.199 OLB Kyle Emanuel, 6'3" 255 lbs., North Dakota State
6.212c OLB Max Valles, 6'5" 251 lbs., Virginia
7.239 RB John Crockett, 6'0" 217 lbs., North Dakota State
And talking to EJ Manuel?
Connect the dots people:
Ben due for a new contract.
Yinzer backup signed for 3 years.
Now fishing around 2nd round QB on a team with 2 average RBs under contract, 1 receiver gone, another half way out the door, and Miller is hurt.
Not hard to figure out why.
I think we draft one of those WRs ruthless.
I would take rogers in the 2nd. He reminds me a little of julio jones. Very physical player.
Heck, regular students can eat as many times as they want in the regular cafeteria's plus they have a million and one options all over campus. Alumni wouldn't let him go hungry let alone his parents.
I can't believe he would say something like that.
With so many needs now I don't see us picking a QB until the last round if at all, maybe next season the steelers can get serious about the QB position. This draft is weak at QB, otherwise maybe the Steelers would consider, lets get some playmakers on this team instead of long shots.

Happy New Year to you. May it be one in which the roots of your life grow deeper into the unfailing and faithful love of God for you. Here's a good word I came across in preparing for the sermon I'm preaching this weekend at Crossway Church in Santa Ana.
"The great temptation always crouching at the door of prayer is to use prayer is a way to avoid God: using God language to avoid God relationship; using the name of God as a screen behind which to hide from God. Clichés are the usual verbal giveaways of prayer that is, in fact, nonprayer." (Peterson, Eugene. Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 2005, p. 278.)

LIVINGSTON — When an elevator at the Livingston hospital got stuck between the second and third fl oor in the bed tower, maintenance workers were able to free most of the occupants within 20 minutes, according to Doug Champagne, one of the stranded. The Shepherd resident was one of four that became trapped in the elevator last Thursday night. Champagne said his family was leaving the ICU unit of the hospital about 7:15 p.m. when the elevator stopped between fl oors. Staff members called a maintenance man who arrived about 20 minutes later. Champagne said they were able to open the doors just enough to free him, his 17-year-old brother, Garrett; his wife Jean Greer and their 18-month-old son, Doug Jr. by 8 p.m. Livingston Fire Department was called to the hospital at 8:22 p.m. with maintenance and security unable to open the doors enough to free Doug's father, Lynn. "These kind of things just happen, Champagne said about the mechanical breakdown. "The hospital has been doing everything they could to help us." Doug said staff had remained near his father and providing food and drinks to him and the other family members who now waited outside the elevator. When his toddler ran out of diapers they brought diapers baby supplies from the hospital nursery. Livingston Fire Chief Corky Cochran and 10 fi refi ghters were standing by while a technician from Otis elevators drove in from the south side of Houston. He arrived shortly after 10 p.m. and Lynn Champagne was freed at 10:50 p.m. An attempt to reach hospital public relations staff for comment was not successful.

DANCE 2050: The Future of Dance in Higher Education is a visionary and generative symposium seeking a broad ranging consideration of what pathways dance in higher education might take into the mid-21st century. Inspired by the 1966-1967 Developmental Conferences on DAnce held at UCLA, the symposium includes plenary sessions and break-out group discussions organized around many of the topics brought forward in submitted vision statements, including: future projections for our institutions, the evolution of dance program designs, dance in local, regional, and world communities, dance and the opportunities and challenges of emergent technologies, and other overarching considerations that symposium participants believe will shape, form, and interact with the discipline of dance over the next three decades.
To help tie us to our history, Dance 2050 will also include the release of Revisiting Impulse: A contemporary look at writings on dance 1950-1970. Over two decades,
Impulse: annual of contemporary dance brought forward many of the discussions, viewpoints, and planning reports that set the stage for dance in art and education well into the 1980s and 1990s. This new volume, featuring contemporary consideration of each Impulse issue by selected contributors, will bring field history into clear focus. Cambria Press will publish this volume and make it available at a discount to participants. To access back issues of Impulse, click here.

Something funny about Pokemonon August 17, 2012 at 12:01 am
I'm writing this on Monday, which means you're reading it in the future, and by now I've been at Gencon for 2 days already.
Poor Modest, her snakes aren't even trying. Then again, they tend to have a weird effect when they bite things, so it's all for the best.
I can't wait to give you more of my money jake whether it's for the yeld kickstarter in a few months or Season 3, Strips like this remind me why I buy the books
You go, Medusa. It's important to have priorities!
"I can has Pokemons?" (best line ever!) Totally not related to this strip but that is what I think of whenever I hear about a DS. XD
Next time, if you don't want people to recognize you, wear a Cylon Centurion costume, or something.
Single minded just like a kid, love it!
That was not me when I was a kid…:[
Okay maybe sometimes! 😮
But Jake seems very fatherly to her… it's so CUTE!!!
I love the way Modest (I guess I can call her that now) is all psycho and ravenous and the snakes are just happily looking around. I really like the snakes. (and the Bitchy Mermaids)
Why does it feel like Jake is walking straight into a trap?
Single minded, just like a child, I love it!
sorry for the double post, it did not look like it posted the first time.
This is the same woman who rejected pennies and chocodiles but accepted a DS. Can you trust someone with such poor judgment?
Considering I am writing this in yoru past, and you will read it in my furure, How was it?
you're at gencon? No manga club?
Manga club?
gah sorry didn't mean to post twice…
*Something funny about comic*
BTW Jake, MM's line work is top notch. You really outdid yourself this time.
I noticed that as well, it looks very sharp and clean, I like this style much better then what you see from some DC and Marvel artists, great job Jake!
I'm glad you're back, or at least still putting up funny comics. I've missed them. Modest is so funny.
I met Jake at GenCon! WHEEEEEEEE!!! *does happy dance*

Hip-Hop Artist M.I.A. Wrote a Song About Her Three-Hour Verizon Tech Support Call
M.I.A. Collaborates With Verizon Tech Support For a New Track
Like us on Facebook
I was having issues with my cable and wireless, and I was on the phone [with tech support] for three hours, and I thought, "Maybe this needs to be part of my music, could you just learn these lyrics and sing it down the phone to me?" Ten phone calls later, I have Internet that sticks and a song.
I can't wait to hear it, but I also can't wait for all the parodies to hit YouTube — how does "I'm Down Like Your AT&T Signal" sound?

(Springfield) – When an improvised explosive device blows up in the face of an American soldier, medics rush to treat life-threatening injuries. That often means injuries to the eyes, which account for nearly 40 percent of all war wounds, can go untreated for days, frequently resulting in blindness.
Now, scientists at Mercy Research and Development (R&D) in Springfield, Mo., have a solution, thanks to a $4.8 million research grant from the U.S. Department of Defense. Mercy scientists have developed prototype contact lenses capable of delivering medication. They're designed for medics to apply to soldiers' eyes right on the battlefield – immediately stabilizing the eye and preserving vision.
"This research project is the most personal thing I've done in my career," said Dr. Shachar Tauber, Mercy section chair of ophthalmology and optometry and principal investigator on this research and product development. "My father was injured in war, causing blindness in one eye and diminished sight in the other. Making sure our soldiers not only live, but live to literally see their families again, is so important to me."
Other researchers have been working on similar projects for decades, but Dr. Tauber looked at it from a different angle. He had the idea to apply a Nobel prize-winning breakthrough – electrospun polymer fibers – to the world of ophthalmology. "We decided to impregnate those fibers with medication," he explained. "More than a few experts said it couldn't be done, but we now have the test results and the patent to prove the science works."
Mercy researchers have developed several lenses with different uses. One lens can simultaneously deliver a steroid and an antibiotic to reduce swelling and fight infection for up to seven days. When wounds involve lacerations to the cornea, another product works as a sealant to hold the wound shut for up to three days, while also delivering medication. That allows time for the soldier to be transported to a military hospital for surgery.
"Another great thing about this research is its applications beyond military needs," said Keela Davis, director of Mercy R&D. "The base lens can be infused with just about any drug for the eye and made available to everyone. We know when patients are prescribed eye drops for things like glaucoma or pink eye, the medication only reaches the eye about a quarter of the time. That's either because the patients don't use the eye drops, or the medication lands somewhere else. Eye drop installation is difficult, plus tears immediately dilute the drug and wash it away. This solves those problems and will lead to improved visual outcomes for patients."
Now that researchers have tested prototypes that work, they still have one obstacle to overcome before the contacts can get to the battlefield. "They need to be mass produced," explained Davis. "We are looking to license the technology to an established company or find an investor to help us set up the manufacturing process here."

I've got nothing against people who really need to hunt to eat.
I definitely am for government by the consent of the governed. By that I mean the people of the state of Alaska have a right to rule themselves as they see fit including making their own rules about hunting. That's just the way it goes. Call it the tyranny of the majority.
I am dubious about a number of things however:
I wonder just how it is possible to know about how many people in Alaska absolutely have to hunt to survive.
I wonder how many of the hunters use eating as a pretext for prize hunting.
I wonder how many of the wolf hunters are actually doing it for the right reasons and not just for the money.
I wonder if Alaska has any controls in place to ensure that this culling isn't abused.
Finally, even if it's wrong to our way of thinking, it's really none of our business if the majority of people in Alaska want it that way. Incidentally, if the majority of them wanted to destroy all the flora and fauna and totally ruin the environment in that state it would be their right to do it. They and their children have to live with the results of their choices good or bad. The only problem is that if they ruin their state it will have an impact on the rest of the world. That's the paradox of democracy.
