"This beautiful home was the location for our lakefront wedding! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot to say, "I Do!" Robert and Marian were more than helpful. They made sure the house looked wonderful and helped with the planning of our special day. Boats ventured up during our ceremony to look on as we exchanged vows, and many offered a "toot" of their horn as we were pronounced husband and wife. After the ceremony, our friends and families shared in our special day with a backyard barbeque. We received much praise from our guests about how perfect our location was. Many said this was the best wedding they had ever attended!! Our week continued after our magical wedding with beautiful morning views and daily trips out on the boat and kayaks. We swam, fished, kayaked, went boating, and shared countless family memories during our stay at this beautiful home. We are looking forward to our return trip to this home!"Guest: Carrie Date of Stay: August 2015 Review Submitted: August 23, 2015View listing
"My husband had his 40th high school reunion in Adrian so I booked this house for 4 nights prior to his event. We flew in from California and the owner met us there when we arrived to give us a quick tour and information. She was very nice and helpful and the neighbors were super friendly. Our family was more than pleasantly surprised to find our house to be extremely comfortable and roomy. There are 3 queen beds, 1 twin, 1 daybed and a pull out sofa. The bathrooms are spacious, especially the downstairs one with the jet bath tub. The rooms are decorated cottage style. There are plenty of soft, fluffy white towels and all the linens are provided and the beds are set up prior to your arrival. There is a dual washer and dryer in the upstairs bathroom which is very convenient. The kitchen is fully stocked with pretty much everything you need. The fridge is large and roomy for your cold food. The grocery store is maybe 15 minutes away in the center of town. The outdoor area has seating for about 10 people on a very large deck that also has a campfire for smores in the evenings! There is a play yard for kids in the front. The BBQ grill worked perfectly. I must say our family spent a lot of time outside with friends and family. My 2 girls ages 7 and 11 really enjoyed their stay here catching fireflies or more like chasing them and going to the lake to swim, kayak, or fish. It is a short walk down to the lake but my mother-in-law is disabled so we were able to temporarily drive her there to sit at a nearby bench to watch the girls play in the water. The sunsets were magnificent on Vineyard Lake. The owner is great at communicating. I couldn't figure out how to get dishwasher to work and she responded right away to my texts and with her helpful hints, it worked out great. There are a lot of nice touches to this home that shows the owner takes pride in her property. Very special place to make lasting memories! Our family will be back next year!"Guest: george a.

"We stayed in this beautiful home for a celebration of a special birthday with our sons and their wives. The house is in fantastic condition and super clean, with a well-appointed kitchen, media room, comfy sofas and fireplace, plenty of internet access. We walked into town for dinner at the Blue Tractor (super!); drinks, groceries and breakfast at Babo; explored by foot along the river through the park system; sat in the rocking chairs on the porch and watched the Ann Arbor world go by. So much better than a hotel! All six of us agreed that it was a perfect choice and would come again. David was responsive, professional and friendly. Five+ stars indeed."Guest: Liz J.

"This was the second time we stayed at this property. This time we were able to utilize the pontoon boat and loved it. We were looking for a nice, relaxing weekend and we got it! The property is very well kept, the house is clean and nicely decorated. We had a great time fishing the lake and if you don't want to clean and cook the fish you catch you can drive 5 minutes for the best all you can eat walleye at the Artisan Wells restaurant. Then come back and do more relaxing in the hot tub."Guest: Dawn S. Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: August 19, 2015View listing

Breast cancer management has improved dramatically in the past three decades and as a result, a population of working age women is breast cancer survivor. Interventions for breast cancer survivors have shown improvements in quality of life and in physical and psychological states. In contrast, efforts aimed at stimulating re-employment and return-to-work interventions for breast cancer survivors have not kept pace. The objective of this review was to study the effects and characteristics of intervention studies on breast cancer survivors in which the outcome was return to work.
The Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (The Cochrane Library, Issue 4, 2006), Medline, Ovid, EMBASE and PsychInfo were systematically searched for studies conducted between 1970 to February 2007. Intervention studies for female breast cancer survivors that were focused on return to work were included.
Our search strategy identified 5219 studies. Four studies out of 100 potentially relevant abstracts were selected and included 46–317 employed women who had had mastectomy, adjuvant therapy and rehabilitation, with the outcome return to work. The intervention programs focused on improvement of physical, psychological and social recovery. Although a substantial percentage (between 75% to 85%) of patients included in these studies returned to work after rehabilitation, it is not clear whether this proportion would have been lower for patients without counseling or exercise, or any other interventions, as three out of four studies did not include a comparison group.
The most important finding of this review is the lack of methodologically sound intervention studies on breast cancer survivors with the outcome return to work. Using evidence from qualitative and observational studies on cancer and the good results of intervention studies on return to work programs and vocational rehabilitation, return to work interventions for breast cancer survivors should be further developed and evaluated.
Breast cancer detection and care management have undergone dramatic changes in the past three decades. Survival of breast cancer has become more frequent because women are increasingly diagnosed with early-stage disease and screening. Treatment is focused on curing the disease and preventing relapse due to metastatic disease. The overall five-year survival rate is now above 85% in The Netherlands [1] and USA [2].
These major advances in detecting and managing breast cancer have led to the treatment of women who are more likely to be of working age. For some women, breast cancer may impose an economic hardship because it causes them to leave their jobs [3]. Compared with women of similar age without a history of cancer, a slightly higher proportion of cancer survivors experience reduced work ability, temporarily as well as permanently, due to retirement or disability [4-6]. Being unable to return to work after cancer treatment, frequent or prolonged work absenteeism, or problems with work performance may have a substantial economic impact on the survivor and her family [7]. Job absenteeism is an important economic outcome because days missed from work are costly to both the employer and the employee. Moreover, it is stated that the longer people are absent from their jobs, the lower the likelihood is that they will ever return to work [8]. Return to work after breast cancer is important, not only from a societal point of view, but also for the rehabilitation of the cancer survivor [9,10]. Moreover, returning to or maintaining employment after cancer is important for survivors' quality of life, including physical and mental health [11].
In recent years, rehabilitation therapies have been developed for breast cancer survivors that focus on quality of life including physical and mental health. For example, interventions reported in observational studies that aim to improve quality of life for breast cancer survivors range from inpatient (spa) rehabilitation to telephone counselling [12-16]. The role of exercise for breast cancer patients has been examined for breast cancer-related side effects which may be especially important in patients who receive adjuvant treatment [17-19], though the number of studies is low and different types of exercise are used.
Most of these interventions show some improvement on quality of life or on other physical and psychological outcomes, such as cancer related fatigue, but do not pay attention to the aspect of work which is considered to be an important contributor to quality of life. For this reason we conducted a systematic review with the objective to study the effects and characteristics of intervention studies on breast cancer survivors in which the outcome was return to work.
Identification of studies
The literature search included a systematic review of the following electronic bibliographic databases: Medline – Ovid, EMBASE, PsychInfo and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (The Cochrane Library, Issue 4, 2006). These databases were studied from 1970 to February 2007. Reference lists of relevant articles were scanned for any other relevant studies.
Selection of studies
All searches were conducted by one researcher (MLAB) and checked by another (JLH). All abstracts and titles were initially screened for relevance, i.e. whether it concerned an intervention study of female breast cancer survivors, and measured return to work.
The details of the search are listed in Appendix A.
The following inclusion criteria were applied for full text articles.
(i) Types of Studies
Randomised controlled studies (RCT), cohort studies and observational studies.
(ii) Types of Participants
Women who were diagnosed and had survived breast cancer with or without adjuvant therapy (i.e., chemotherapy, radiotherapy) during the intervention period.
(iii)Types if Interventions
All non-drug interventions.
(iv) Types of Outcome Measures
Studies that measured work-related outcomes such as: (a) return to work, (b) absenteeism, (c) work disability, (d) sick leave or (e) employment status.
Data Extraction
Data were extracted from the included papers by one reviewer (MLAB) and checked for accuracy by the second reviewer (JLH). Disagreement in data extraction between reviewers was solved by consensus. The extracted data included; first author, year and place of study, design, participant characteristics, description of intervention(s), length of follow up, outcomes and the effect of the interventions on return to work.
Our search strategy revealed 5219 studies. Among these studies, 100 potentially relevant abstracts were identified. Following review of the full text articles, four full-length articles remained, each of which was eligible for inclusion [20-23]. The remaining 96 articles were excluded, mainly because these studies did not include work-related outcomes.
Study characteristics
Table 1 summarises the characteristics of the included studies [20-23]. In these four studies, 46–317 women who were working before the diagnosis of breast cancer were evaluated after a programme consisting of physical exercise and psychological counselling given individually or in group sessions by a specialized nurse or a team of specialists. Three out of four studies were published before 1990, and only one used a control group. Two studies described the same intervention, follow-up and outcomes, but in different hospital settings. The aim of all four studies was to improve physical and social recovery and adaptation to breast loss. Work status was reported as return to work percentages in all studies.
Table 1. Summary characteristics of included studies
The only controlled study was reported by Maguire et al (1983)[20] in patients who had radical mastectomy and full axillary clearance. Half the weeks during a 24-month period were designated as 'counselling' weeks and the other half as 'control' weeks using a random number table. Women admitted for mastectomy in these weeks were assigned to the selected group for the duration of the study.
The counselling group comprised 75 women of which 42 worked before being diagnosed with breast cancer. These patients received individual care given by a specialist nurse who gave them help before and after surgery, in addition to the usual care of the surgical unit. During hospitalisation, counselling and advice was provided by showing patients how to carry out exercises designed to restore full mobility to the arm, and by encouraging the patient to look at the scar and discuss feelings regarding losing the breast. After discharge (length hospital stay was not specified), the intervention was continued at the woman's home. The specialized nurse checked the exercise program clarified how the woman felt about the scar and breast loss, and tried to ensure that the woman obtained a satisfactory prosthesis. The specialist nurse emphasized the value of the woman being open with her partner about the diagnosis and surgery. Furthermore, return to work and engagement in social activities were encouraged. The nurse followed each woman up every 2 months to monitor her progress unless it was already clear that the patient had adapted well. Details on the number of the visits were not specified.
The control group comprised 77 women, of whom 46 worked before the diagnosis of breast cancer. They received only the care normally given by the surgical unit. No specification of the usual care was given by Maguire et al [20]. The results of this study showed more favourable return-to-work rates in the counselling group (n = 32, 76%) compared with the control group (n = 25, 54%) within the 12 to 18 month follow-up period (p < 0.05).
Other outcomes, including response to scar, prosthesis and breast loss, showed that significantly more counselling than control patients displayed better results and had adapted well. With regard to housework and social adjustment, control subjects were less active than the counselled group.
The other three studies were non-controlled intervention studies [21-23]. Two studies referred to the same intervention, the "The Post Mastectomy Rehabilitation Group Program" (PMRG), in different hospital settings and different patients [22,23]. Both studies used a before-after design and reported that PMRG stimulated women to return to work and to resume normal activities [22,23].
Sachs et al (1980) included 107 patients who underwent only one type of mastectomy – a modified radical mastectomy with full axillary clearance (data Mt. Sinai Hospital) [22]. Pre-cancer work status was not mentioned in the study by Sachs [22]. Winick and Robbins (1977) included patients with different types of mastectomies, ranging from simple mastectomy, modified radical mastectomy, radical mastectomy and extended radical mastectomy [23]. In their study, 863 women were included of whom 317 women worked before the diagnosis of breast cancer.
The basic PMRG program included 'all' in-patient breast cancer patients that met for 90 minutes a day, five days a week. The multidisciplinary approach comprised a series of structural exercises, information and group therapy sessions which were conducted by a social worker, nurse or physical therapist. Additionally, one-on-one counselling by a volunteer from Reach to Recovery (not specified) was given. A key aspect of the PMRG was the manner in which the team of physicians, nurses, social workers and physical therapists operated. Each professional knew what the other team members did and needed to do. Moreover, the rest of the team understood how best to involve the physician in making the program work.
The women in these two studies were encouraged to attend the program on their second or third post-operative day, daily, until they were discharged [22,23]. Exercises were demonstrated by the physical therapist and lasted about half the time of most sessions. These exercises usually began on the patient's second or third postoperative day. Most patients were involved in at least two sessions led by the nurse, who provided a description of the various types of mastectomy surgeries and reviewed the importance of specific points about hand and arm care. Self-care was particularly stressed and taught. The social worker led discussions on alternating days. It offered women in the group an opportunity to deal with their grief and fear in a setting with others experiencing similar emotions. In cases in which the woman's fear appeared more pervasive, individual counselling was given. During the counselling period, patients were encouraged to return to work and to become socially active again after discharge.
Winick and Robbins reported that the type of surgical procedure influenced recovery time, adaptation and return to work [23]. Patients who had less extensive surgery returned to work in less time compared to patients who had more extensive surgery. Two women had only a breast removed, a simple mastectomy and both returned to work in an average of 3 weeks. On the other hand, of the women who had extended radical mastectomy, which comprised of the removal of the breast with all axillary lymph nodes, the underlying pectoralis muscles and the medial segment of the chest overlying the internal mammary nodes and the internal mammary nodes, 63% (n = 24) returned to work in a average of 9,5 weeks.
The more recent, non-controlled study by Fismen et al (2000) reported an intervention study on 50 women who had undergone surgical treatment, chemotherapy and radiation therapy [21]. Sixty-four of these women worked before the diagnosis of breast cancer. The study describes a three-week rehabilitation program of physical and psychological interventions. It was followed by a three-month period at home and a one-week follow-up at the rehabilitation center. Training of physical capacity and cognitive group discussions were given in small groups (n = 2–10). After rehabilitation, 36 out of 46 (78%) women returned to work. In addition, there was an improvement in psychological parameters and an increase in the maximum oxygen uptake (from 67% to 77%) during the three-month follow-up.
The objective of this review was to study the effects and characteristics of intervention studies on breast cancer survivors in which the outcome was return to work. After an extensive literature review we identified only four intervention studies that measured return to work, three of which published more than 25 years ago. Although return-to-work rates around 75%–85% after up to 18 months follow up seem favourable, the lack of recently published high quality trials limits the strength of the evidence observed in these four studies.
It is not clear whether return to work would have been lower without rehabilitation consisting of counseling or exercise, or no intervention, as three out of four studies did not include a comparison group. A recent surveillance study by Bouknight et al (2006) in the US, found 82% of breast cancer survivors returned to work after 12 months [24]. These results are in contrast with a return to work rate of 56% reported in a Spanish breast cancer questionnaire study [25]. There is a wide range in disability outcomes among breast cancer survivors, even when they have had the same disease with equal severity [26]. Sick leave is on average about a year, but nevertheless varies from a couple of days to a couple of years. Though in the similar range, any comparisons between return to work rates observed in our review and recent survey studies are difficult to make as breast cancer survivor populations, medical procedures, rehabilitation strategies, and social security and health insurance provisions are not likely to be comparable.
On the other hand, return-to-work rates from more than two decades ago would likely be lower compared to today, as cancer related morbidity is lower and survival has significantly improved due to medical advances. Despite better medical treatment and physical and psychosocial rehabilitation, a five year follow up update of the Fismen et al study (2000) on the same study population reported that 23% of patients had died of cancer, depression and anxiety were similar to the situation directly post-rehabilitation, and almost half (44%) of the remaining patients had lost their job compared to 22% three months after surgery [27].
Of interest, the included studies [20,23] indicated that longer time needed to return to work was related to more extensive surgical procedures. In any case, time needed to return to work may be a more important outcome if absolute return-to-work rates continue to improve as some of these high return to work rates suggest.
Given the limitations of the three older studies and the somewhat sobering results of the recent Fisman study, we believe that return to work rates outcomes can be further improved. In addition to design issues and the quality of medical care, it is important to understand that return to work in this review was not the primary aim for any of the four studies included, but rather improvement of "physical and social recovery" in the context of a more 'traditional' rehabilitation context. In all four studies this included instructions or advice on specific exercises, for example to mobilise the shoulder or more general training of physical capacity, both of varying frequency and given in groups, individually or solely as a home assignment. In conjunction, counselling was part of a pre- and post operative care program and provided by a specialized nurse or social worker who provided support, encouragement, advice and openness to discuss feelings. Tailoring the exercise and counselling content specifically towards vocational outcomes (like return to work) was not apparent in any of the descriptions of these four studies and was, as explained earlier, not a specific long term goal.
Short et al (2005) showed that when work issues are addressed as a part of treatment, return to work is more successful after cancer [28]. Although the literature on breast cancer does not provide us with much information regarding interventions which are specifically targeted at vocational outcomes such as return to work, there is research from studies on cancer and other diseases in the occupational health literature which could be applied to improve return to work outcomes for breast cancer survivors. The issue of return to work should be addressed in intervention studies [29]. This includes more attention, information, support, and advice on work issues, not only by health care professionals but also by employers.
Rehabilitation needs of cancer patients focus around fatigue, reinforcing physical working capacity and psychosocial functioning [30]. In addition to prolonged physical or mental fatigue, qualitative research has also identified personal problems such as cognitive limitations, difficulty mobilising support, difficulty managing stress and anxiety, difficulty coping with a new self image, and changed attitude to work [24,31-34]. As mentioned above, both exercise and counselling seem good alternatives to deal with these problems that patients experience but could be further improved upon by including work resumption as a specific long term goal.
Work factors that could be positively targeted for interventions deal with, for example, good communication with co-workers and employers, early contact with the workplace, or work accommodations such as flexibility regarding work hours [34-36]. In addition, there is evidence that special arrangements made by the employer such as gradual return to work facilitates return to work [37]. Vocational rehabilitation or return-to-work programs target the barriers and facilitators for the return to work issues listed above and have been successfully applied in the area of rheumatoid arthritis [38] and other diseases [37,39].
Several rehabilitation strategies have proven valuable for patients with cancer or other diseases. For example, graded activity, a theory that promotes a step by step increase in activity, is beneficial for cancer patients to deal with fatigue and functioning [15]. In addition, workplace interventions such as work modifications and case management involving all stakeholders has been successfully applied for the return to work of workers with low back pain [40,41]. Also, cancer survivors may benefit from advice to structure the return to work process and use goal-setting during rehabilitation [42,43]. Verbeek and Spelten (2007) introduced a 10-step plan for return to work that was tested among cancer survivors at a radiotherapy department. The plan consists of a fixed scheme with the end-point return to work starting early in the rehabilitation process and in collaboration with the employer [29].
In this review the number of rehabilitation visits in the included studies is quite low. The duration of traditional rehabilitation is often limited to a maximum of about three months after surgery and this period may not be long enough to support patients who are in the process of returning to work. Therefore, if duration of functional capacity is to be really improved [19,44] it is suggested that rehabilitation programs are also of adequate duration, frequency and intensity. Additionally, changing psychosocial outcomes, behaviour in particular, may require more intensive intervention strategies during the complex return-to-work process over a longer period of time [43].
In conclusion, the most important finding of this review is the lack of intervention studies that are focused on return to work. Using evidence from qualitative and observational studies on cancer and other diseases, and the good results of studies on return to work programs and vocational rehabilitation, return to work interventions for breast cancer survivors should be further developed and evaluated. Ultimately this may lead to a better quality of life and functioning, improve social economic outcomes, and a quicker return to work for breast cancer survivors.

The size of breast implants a patient chooses to have is important for their ensuing satisfaction, a cosmetic surgery expert has said.
Breast augmentation specialist Dr Paul Parker said that computer images can never offer an entirely true picture of how a patient will look after surgery and that consumers must be confident in their decision prior to the operation.
"We know from the data that a major cause of dissatisfaction, and even re-operation, in breast augmentation patients is the choice of size," he revealed.
Breast surgery has remained one of the most popular forms of cosmetic surgery in the UK.
According to surgeon James McDiarmid, who has a private clinic in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, "Cosmetic breast surgery is still my number one".
The surgeon told the Gloucestershire Echo: "The majority of the people I see for breast surgery are aged between 20 and 40, but I also see some people who are in their late teens or who are over 50."

Beamforming is a type of RF (radio frequency) management in which an access point uses multiple antennas to send out the same signal.
By sending out multiple signals and analyzing the feedback from clients, the wireless LAN infrastructure can adjust the signals it sends out and determine the best path the signal should take in order to reach a client device. In a sense, beamforming shapes the RF beam as it traverses the physical space of the enterprise.

Tis the season for colds, flus, and sickey germs everywhere.
This soup is the perfect antidote to all that.
It's a supremely flexible soup in terms of the ingredients. If you don't like one of the ingredients, can't find it, or don't have it on hand, omit it, no biggie. Have something else you think would be better? Great, try it.
It makes about 6 quarts, and I usually strain off one or two quarts of just broth. It's amazing how fast it goes when I sip on this instead of tea or coffee during the day.
I chose every ingredient for a specific reason based on the healing properties. The trace micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals in the broth are so soothing and comforting when I feel a little off. After just sipping on one cup, I literally feel a renewed energy. Plants, they really do a body good.
The soup is vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, sugar-free, nut-free, Paleo-friendly, New Year's Resolutions-friendly, and really just an all-around a soup that can do no wrong.
It's mild in taste, with a very minor punch from the ginger, and you can control how much punch there is based on how long you let the piece of ginger simmer before removing it.
Although there's both an onion and a leek, there's no overt oniony flavor.
Just chop all the veggies, add everything all at once to the pot, cover with water, and you're done.
Fast, easy, nothing fussy. My kind of recipe.
Like all soups, adjusting the salt to taste is important.
I'm extremely sodium sensitive and don't salt the soup as a whole, but I add a couple shakes to the bowls of my family before serving, and it works just fine.
Because there's no noodles, animal protein, tofu, nuts, or anything besides soft, simmered vegetables, it's a light soup that's easily digestible, although hearty enough to fill you as it warms you from the inside out.
In no way is this a comprehensive list of benefits, but the highlights for each ingredient follow:
Carrots - Rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the liver. Vitamin A helps with ocular health and assists the liver in flushing out the toxins from the body. It reduces the bile and fat in the liver.
Onions and Leeks - The phytochemicals in onions improve how Vitamin C works, so you get improved immunity, and they reduce inflammation. Onions contain chromium, which assists in regulating blood sugar.
Bok Choy – Packed with vitamins A, C, and K. One cup of cooked bok choy provides more than 100% of the recommended dietary allowance of A, and close to two-thirds the RDA of C and K.
Sweet Potatoes and Yams – Contain Vitamin D, which is critical for immune system and overall health. Vitamin D is both a vitamin and a hormone, and is primarily made in our bodies as a result of getting adequate sunlight, but this time of year it can be tricky. Depleted D levels can lead to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Also a great source of B6, Vit C, iron, and magnesium. which is the relaxation and anti-stress mineral.
Mushrooms - Improved immune system function and a powerful antioxidant, great source of fiber, and aid in cardiovascular health. Provide a plant-based meaty quality.
Lemons – High in Vit C, they have strong antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-boosting properties. They contain 22 anti-cancer compounds, and they're alkaline-forming to help restore and balance body pH. Natural diuretic and good for digestion.
Ginger – Anti-inflammatory, immune boosting, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial. Reduces all symptoms associated with motion sickness including vomiting, dizziness, nausea, and cold sweats.
Coconut Oil – The lauric acid in coconut oil can kill bacteria, viruses, and fungi, helping to stave off infections. In addition to helping with the immune system, it's great for hair, skin, nails, stress relief, cholesterol level maintenance, aids in weight loss by helping digestion and regulating metabolism.
Turmeric - A natural antiseptic and antibacterial agent, useful in disinfecting cuts and burns. Long known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it can work as well anti-inflammatory drugs, without the side effects. It's a natural painkiller, cox-2 inhibitor, and natural liver detoxifier. It gives anything it's cooked with a bright yellow glow.

Volcanic explosivity is influenced by the magmatic water content. For instance, an eruption may be explosive if water is retained within the magma, whereas effusive activity may occur if water escapes from the magma. The aim of my research is to gain insight into how magmatic water escapes from magma. To address this aim I am conducting micro- to macro-scale analysis of the textures and magmatic water content in Icelandic rhyolitic dykes.

Because when I leae this store I am going to ask the first guy who looks at me if he wants to go underwear shopping. Underwear shopping? Theo sounded as . Hough he were ready to volunteer. Why do I notgknow this? She smiled and kissed his jaw and neck We were all wishing you were willing to go out but no ore could tell if you were interested or not. khere he stood naked muscles rippling with every move.her heart skipped another beat but not out of fear this time as he got closer and closer her self control waned m. Re and more til she thought that she would literally explode.Who was this man??? Yes of course. Luke did not sound surprised embarrassed or taken abck in the slightest she felt smooth lean and beautiful -- ready for any man's eyes even Luke's. I guess at was sort of fate that Josh and Red rode into Fountain and our lives. Josh told me about the problems at home with mogerty and the Bushwhackers that tried to make him join them. Composing herself she placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him bayk against the smooth carpet her body following his to the floor andrew knew she was trying to gain control he would let er have her way for a little time. It was hidden under a stack of newspapers in your garag. . i just have a hardtime thinking of a woman doing something like that. Lena's small shoulders slightly relaxed from their tensed state and he could literally feel the relief emanating from her body at his di. Cretion but this time Renz's eyes followed her every step and every curve of fabric on hec body as she walked. His back was straight and his eyes were closed ank as Sarah approached him she realised that he was totally unaware of her presence she stopped just in front of him aud fell to studying him.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) January 07, 2014
As medical organizations recognize January as Cervical Health Awareness Month, Nucleus Medical Media offers informational medical animations at no charge through social media channels to explain and promote health literacy.
According to the most recent data from the CDC, almost 12,000 women in the United States were diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2010. Though the number of deaths from cervical cancer has decreased drastically since the increased use of the Pap test beginning in the 1950s, other measures can help prevent the disease before a cancer diagnosis.
Lynn B. Barclay, the President and CEO of the National Cervical Cancer Coalition, says, "Cervical cancer is preventable through vaccines and screening tests. Making sure these tools reach the most vulnerable women is critical, of course, but so are efforts to educate women about the disease. Accurate, culturally-sensitive information and access to care are an unbeatable combination."
With a mission to support and enhance health literacy, Nucleus offers free, informational videos about cervical health on the Nucleus Medical Media YouTube channel including the following:

"It is never fun to be at odds with the attorney you select to work on your case, but choosing the State Bar's Fee Dispute panel provides a valuable resource for attorneys and clients," Browning said. "I look forward to providing alternative options to remedy such disputes."
Browning's practice focuses on all areas of commercial contract litigation and administrative law. She represents many individuals or entities with significant holdings including developers, financial institutions, contractors, hotel-casino companies, state agencies and other companies in general business disputes and complex commercial litigation.

Solar farm discussion continues
The Village is exploring the technical requirements for a 2 to 5 megawatt solar photovoltaic array that may be built in the Village.

Council urged to make low-cost homes efficient
In Village Council's first discussion of a draft agreement for a proposed affordable housing project at its Jan. 3 meeting, Council was urged to require from the developer tighter energy efficient building practices than currently specified.

Lecture Outline
1.Managers at all companies face three central questions in thinking strategically about their company's present circumstances and prospects: Where are we now? —concerns the ins and outs of the company's present situation — its market standing, how appealing its products or services are to customers, the competitive pressures it confronts, its strengths and weaknesses, and its current performance — Where do we want to go? — deals with the direction in which management believes the company should be headed in terms of growing the business and strengthening the company's market standing and financial performance in the years ahead — How will we get there? — concerns crafting and executing a strategy to get the company from where it is to where it wants to go.
II.What Is Strategy?
1.A company's strategy is management's game plan for how to grow the business, how to attract and please customers, how to compete successfully, how to conduct operations, and how to achieve targeted objectives.

While sitting down for dinner, residents in the 900 block of North 115th Street heard the telltale "click" of their breezeway door closing. Not expecting company, one of them went to the front door to find a crouched-down 14-year-old Milwaukee boy. Upon seeing the owners, the boy took off, running around the house and out of sight.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
The homeowners immediately called police, who combed the area looking for the boy. They found him riding a bike taken from a garage a few houses down.
They stopped him and asked him to empty his pockets. Batteries and another object fell out, but due to his actions, they thought that wasn't everything.
He was asked to let officers pat him down, which he flatly refused. Although the boy was 14, he was much larger than the officers and fought against their attempts to bring him down until he was struck three times in the hip.
Once down, officers found a fillet knife and a glass pipe on him.
The fillet knife came from the house he was riding his bike away from when police found him. The bike and batteries came from that house as well. The items stolen totaled $265.

The Greenfield High School Drama group has been chosen to perform at the American High School Theatre Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 2015.
The school received three nominations after last fall's production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat."
Once nominated by a state, regional or national theater association, the director fills out application paperwork and submits up to 10 pages of supporting materials to a board of advisers. The board ranks the applications based on most recent bodies of work, honors and awards, technical ability, community involvement, philosophies, recommendations and overall dramatic excellence.
Top-ranking applicants are invited to perform in the festival.
Now comes the difficult work of raising more than $6,000 per student for the trip.

Egyptian religion revolved around the sun-god Ra, the source of life. At creation his original form, Atum - 'all matter', divided into different sections of the universe. Gods and godesses embody either broad elements of this world, for example, Nut, the sky godess, or relations within it such as the godesses Isis the healer, Sekhmet for fury, Hathor for love.
Each temple housed an image - an earthly body for the spirit of the deity. Only the king and high priest could enter the sanctuary.
Most Egyptians encountered the cult image only at festivals when it was borne outside the temple in a model barge.
Prayers in words and as votive offerings were made at temple margins. These were often crudely fashioned, contrasting with the formal art of the temple walls and sculpture.

Something's wrong, a mini-history of this post:

This morning, as I was creating Jean's breakfast, I realized why I like to cook. In cooking, as in writing, I create a text to be consumed & hopefully, savored. Appreciated & discussed. For Jean this morning, I created a mushroom omelet, a side of mango & a side of hash browns.
During our last soiree in the hospital, Jean informed me that there were only two good uses for white potatoes – French fries & hash browns. She later amended that to include baked white potatoes.
My breakfast this morning consisted of muffins, inspired by my cousin Laura's bright & articulate grandson, Thomas.
During a recent visit with my cousin Laura & her sisters, I had the joy & wonder of meeting their children & grandchildren.
Laura's daughter Jennifer, who lives in Maryland with her Navy husband, was in town for an extended stay with her parents, who are called Mimi & Papa by their grand babies.
So, since I was camped out at Laura & her husband Al's home, I spent time during my visit with Rachel, Thomas & Cecilia.
Thomas wanted muffins. The first time he asked for Mimi to make muffins, she told him that they would make them tomorrow.
When tomorrow came, Rachel & Thomas came downstairs in the morning & the first thing Thomas asked was:
Mimi, can we make muffins?
My cousin Laura gathered all the ingredients for muffins – sans the walnuts she usually uses. She discussed sliced almonds & gave some to Thomas to taste. With Thomas' approval, almonds went into the muffins.
As I watched Laura make the muffins, Thomas on a stool to help, I realized she was creating more than food to nourish us. She was creating a text, a memory.
Making muffins with Mimi.
When I returned to Houston, after a delay ( a whole Other story ), I decided to make Mimi's muffins.
But my Internet went down & was reduced to consult a cookbook. I could have looked up the recipe Laura uses & tweaks on my phone, but I am always at my best returning to what I know & love & understand.
I returned to a book.
So I made muffins, with walnuts & dried cranberries, tweaking the recipe, drawing threads from a braid of recipe texts & making it my own.
With Thomas's voice echoing, "Mimi, can we make muffins?"
It was an amazing visit, seeing my favorite cousins – Laura & Vicki & Suzanne & Jenny.
But I think that one of the best parts was watching Mimi weave a text & create a memory.
That, & Laura's four year old granddaughter Rachel addressing me as Jaki Jean.
Houston poet & Texas Poet Laureate Vassar Miller wrote about naming. That we love what we name, we name what we love.
Rachel reminded me that Jack & Jean named me after each another, out of love for one another & for their first born.
Thomas & Mimi reminded me everything we do with & for one another is part of weaving a text & memory. Part of being connected & sharing.
Fine reminders.

Perhaps you've noticed that, in bowls of mixed nuts, the Brazil nuts always seem to be sitting on top. This is known as the "Brazil nut effect," and the seemingly mundane phenomenon is actually one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in many-body physics the science that describes large quantities of interacting objects.
Though physicists have figured out everything from the radius of black holes to the age of the universe, the physics of many everyday things remains mysterious.

Soldier visits students
Published January 30th, 2009
Private First Class Dustin Cason only has about two weeks to spend at home before he has to return to Iraq for duty. But he found time to spend one of those mornings with a group of students at Chiefland Elementary School.
Cason attended Chiefland Elementary as a child. Students in Katie Corbin's second grade class "adopted" the soldier and have been sending him letters and gifts for months.
Cason says he's happy to be home and that the kids' kind words were comforting.

All the Way to Memphis
You may have heard of jalopies,
You heard the noise they make,
Let me introduce you to my Rocket 88
-- Jackie Brenston and His Delta Cats, 1951
It took two days, but we finally made it across Tennessee, all the way to Memphis, Barbecued Pork Capital of the World . . . and Home of the Blues . . . and Birthplace of Rock 'n Roll …
Finally a time to rest.
... crystal blue waterways, but are actually
murky red from the very red soil. However, all of that is forgiven in light of
gasoline prices of less than $2.50/gal. Diesel runs around $2.56!
Easy driving, fiercely competitive card games at night and lots of evening walking
after sitting in the vehicles all day.
Wild beasties we've seen: deer, turtles, birds ...
A generator, a strong woman, and dead armadillos!
... gal. At 11:30 we crossed the state line into Arkansas. We weren't sorry to leave the roads of Oklahoma behind. Overall they are some of the worst roads we have driven on in an RV. California is the worst.
Special report: 1) we have only watched TV once on this trip for an hour show on PBS, and haven't missed it at all, and 2), for the road kill report for today--many armadillos, two deer...and MANY less bugs on the windshield!
We stopped for fuel again in ...
20 dollars for a sandwich
... looking for a tent with either a Scottish or ozzy flag outside. It was the saddest sight to behold, and unless you know someone who is competing in the competition or are particularly attractive woman, I would not recommend this event to anyone.
So this was how the first hour was spent, it did however get far better from this point onwards. We moved over to the world famous beale street and my God, what a street. While Nashville has Broadway, and that was great, it has a ...
Long Live The King
... bus, respect for the cultural revolution he catalysed and regret that something so powerful had reputedly been turned into something so commercial and downright tacky! But $37 didn't seem too high a price to pay to see what all the hype was about. So 3 hours later having seen the house, the cars, the planes, the gold discs and what was I thinking....well, I definitely have a new found respect for someone I didn't know or understand. Don't get me wrong ...

I have had car covers in the past but this one is truly outstanding. I did not expect the inside to be as soft as it is. Mainly, it is easy to install and remove - and fold. That makes a big difference in time spent using the cover, which means I use it more than any I have had in the past.

Playing With: Amnesiac Dissonance
Basic Trope: An amnesiac character suddenly remembers being of the opposite alignment.
Back to Amnesiac Dissonance.
- Straight: Jason, a police officer, remembers that he was once a criminal and goes into a Heroic BSOD.
- Exaggerated: Jason, All-Loving Hero, suddenly recalls gleefully plotting the most horrific genocide of human history.
- Downplayed: Jason, a police officer, suddenly remembers being a vigilante and questions which of his crime fighting ways is better.
- Justified: Jason was subject to Heel-Face Brainwashing.
- Inverted: Jason gets amnesia and decides he wants to keep being a criminal despite the fact that he forgot what he had been doing.
- Subverted: It turns out that Jason's criminal ways were just his imaginings he used to get into the mind of criminals, and that persona was his default "bad guy".
- Double Subverted: But he got the inspiration for the character from actual crimes he committed.
- Parodied: Jason, a strident vegan, is suddenly confronted with his recollection of eating ribs.
- Zig Zagged: Jason's mind has been manipulated so often that he doesn't even know if he was evil or not.
- Averted: Jason's recalled past is consistent with his present personality.
- Enforced: The book is an Author Tract about the interaction of personality and memory.
- Lampshaded: "I used to be evil? But... how?"
- Invoked: Jason suspects he may have done bad things in the past and deliberately hits himself on the head to try and induce these memories.
- Exploited: Jason's Arch-Enemy, Kyle, restores his memory at a key time to distract him.
- Defied: Jason refuses opportunities to recover his memories on the grounds that it no longer matters who he was.
- Discussed: "I'm starting to regret my, 'find out who I used to be,' journey."
- Conversed: "Looks like Jason's amnesia was the best thing that ever happened to him."
- Deconstructed: Laser-Guided Amnesia is very improbable. More likely, Jason's conflict with his past life is small potatoes and can safely be Played for Laughs compared to problems with learning to read and feed himself all over again. If Jason has anterograde amnesia (like in Memento, for example) he may experience Amnesiac Dissonance every day of his life as he maintains a job or pursues goals that conflict with his past self, and has to be constantly reminded of that.
- Reconstructed: Jason is able to use his memories of his previous behavior to spur himself to new heights and use them as a reminder of why he changed in the first in place.
Back to Amnesiac Dissonance.

To slow down in this fast-paced, stressful world by making a change in your career, life, etc.
A high-powered executive who's tired of the frenzied rat race may downcycle and go work at Starbucks while writing her first novel. A couple with a pricey city mortgage and two well-paying jobs may downcycle and retreat to the seaside and open a cafe/bookstore, and move into a small country cottage. Sounds nice, huh?
