Not much to say about this one except to learn from it and move on. The Celtics stayed within 2 in the first quarter but after that, it wasn't even close. Once again, one of the culprits was turnovers as the Celtics gave the ball away 21 times. Another problem was once again their pick and roll defense. That's one thing they have to solve before the season starts because the Heat will eat them alive on the pick and roll if they don't. Boston Celtics' Paul Pierce (34) drives against Philadelphia 76ers' Spencer Hawes (00) in the first half of an NBA preseason basketball game, Monday Oct. 15, 2012, in Philadelphia. (AP Photo/H. Rumph Jr) The Celtics also shot a horrendous 38% while allowing the Sixers to shoot 49%. The Celtics were out-rebounded 48-42. They had just 20 assists as opposed to 32 assists for the Sixers. They even shot just 11-18 from the line. The concentration just wasn't there. They were outplayed by the Sixers on both ends of the court. Doc started Rondo, Lee, Pierce, Sully, and Darko. Paul Pierce was a bright spot in the game as he finished with 16 points on 5-10 shooting and was 2-2 from beyond the arc. He also had 6 rebounds and 2 assists but also chipped in 4 turnovers. Rajon Rondo seemed to struggle a bit. He had just 4 points on 2-7 shooting. He also missed his only 2 free throws on the night. He also contributed 2 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 turnovers. Courtney Lee added 4 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals and was the only starter without a turnover. Boston Celtics' Rajon Rondo (9) shoot over Philadelphia 76ers' Jrue Holiday (11) in the first half of an NBA preseason basketball game, Monday Oct. 15, 2012, in Philadelphia. (AP Photo/H. Rumph Jr) Jared Sullinger had 9 points and 5 assists along with 2 turnovers in 22 minutes of play. Darko started at center and played pretty well, scoring 6 points, pulling down 3 rebounds and blocking 1 shot. He also turned the ball over 3 times. Darko was playing with his wrist taped after tweaking it last week in practice. He aggravated the injury when he fell on it early in the third quarter. After a timeout, he returned to the court and on the next play, threw down a left-handed dunk. Bass was a bright spot off the bench as he pitched in 11 points and 6 rebounds. Jeff Green scored 8 points to go with 3 rebounds. Jason Terry had a line of 3 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 turnover. Melo pulled down 3 rebounds in 7 minutes of play. Dionte Christmas shot just 1-4 with 1 rebound and 1 assist in 13 minutes of play in his return to his hometown. Doc still has plenty of work to do with this team. There are the turnovers to clean up as well as the defense to tighten up. It may be time for him to tighten up the rotation so that they can begin to build some chemistry and work on learning their roles on the team. At least they don't have a lot of time to dwell on this stinker as they play again tomorrow night. The Celtics and Sixers will meet again on Sunday so hopefully the C's will have a better showing then. [Discuss on CG Forums!]

I am staying in San Francisco for a month and would like to go skiing during weekends ( dep fri noon - rtn sun noon). I have never been to Tahoe before and do not know which area I should go. I am a high intermediate skier and my little cousin is a beginner snowboarder.
People told me it is about 3 hrs drive from San Francisco to Tahoe depending on the road condition. As I am completely new to this place, I wonder if it is safe for me to drive up there or I should take a bus. But apparently, all buses leaves 3am to 5 am from San Francisco :(
Furthermore, the hotels and ski passes in Heavenly are quite expensive and I wonder if there are other slightly more economical choices......
Thank you all in advance.

What Does South Jersey Call This?
When you are stuck in traffic, and it's moving slowly because of a car accident.
When you are stuck in traffic, and it's moving slowly because of a car accident.
If you were like me and attempted to drive across the Great Egg Harbor Bay Bridge towards Cape May yesterday, you know it was an absolute mess.
A fiery crash involving two tractor trailers, a car, and a bus has caused some major problems on the New Jersey Turnpike this morning.
There's not much left of an Acura sedan following a horrific crash on I-295 this morning. The accident caused two deaths and three more injuries.
Beginning Monday, a stretch of Jimmie Leeds Road in Galloway will be closed for construction, and motorists will be detoured.
I guess anybody can sue for just about anything these days.
More than fifty bridges are in line for repair on Route 55, a project that will begin this week along the roadway.
Just what motorists need to open Memorial Day weekend. A dump truck went through a guardrail and over the Great Egg Harbor bridge near Somers Point today, causing traffic to be backed up for miles.
To help to keep the traffic flowing, and to set your wallet at ease, the expressway will be waving tolls for just one hour on Friday!
A stretch of Tilton Road in Northfield has been partially closed while authorities work to clear an accident.
The 42 Freeway southbound remains closed and area roads jammed with alternative traffic as crews continue to clean up an overturned tractor trailer near Creek Road.

A one-room schoolhouse feel, minus the 'marm but plus the mac? That seems right for a light-hearted, full-flavored spot that zaps you back — maybe not to Little House on the Prairie days (although the ingredients are Ingalls-fresh), but at least to second grade, when a grilled cheese and tomato soup were all the haute cuisine one needed. Oakland's cute Homeroom makes us want to check that we have both of our mittens clipped to our sleeves as we dive into updated youth classics: grilled cheese with Inna jalapeño jam, Blue Lake string beans, and Three Twins root beer floats. Best of all, oodles of mac 'n' cheese, made with everything from tangy chevre to hot chorizo, Gilroy garlic to vegan-version walnut. School's in for summer!

I think it went wandering off down yonder
And stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen
Cause I need an interventionist to intervene between me and this monster
And save me from myself and all this conflict
Lyric Meaning
Eminem needed someone to step in and separate him from this monster, much like a drug addict needs to be kept away from the drug, for his own sake. Fighting the monster or otherwise going head-to-head against it would mean destroying himself since this monster is a part of him.
Fortunately, he found someone to intervene. Jeff VanVonderen is an author, motivational speaker, former pastor, and interventionist who is best known for his appearances on A&E reality show Intervention.

I edit this version as experiment, and the result is quite a pleasure.
Now I know why people like black & white photography. The absence of color emphasize the lighting & shadow dramatically, and it look super 'classic'. The part of illustration that have a lot of light may overexposed by now if this work was colored, but this B&W version have no problem with it.

Oh wow I really like this black and white version, makes the whole scene more alive and 'dramatic'!! Very good experiment!! ; )
felt a different kind of love with this black and white version.... automatic fave!!!
Really good!
AMAZING kaaaaa!!! >[]<
I like it! It feels nostalgic somehow. Though if you wanted to achieve the quality of a black and white photograph it lacks a bit of contrast and detail on the edges, just a little bit. Film black and white photographs have a bigger quality in detail than color ones, I forgot the technical explanation for that. Still is a great work and how the background behind the windons is blurred is really realistic.
O Thank you as always for your suggestion~!
I fear that by increasing the detail will make it suddenly look "too 3D", thus I decide to blur it a bit.

I very rarely channel a rocker chic and that's why every time I visit a Diesel store I just come back with goodies for my husband. Lucky man, don't you think?! Haha all that's about to change because I am absolutely loving Diesel's new collection for women. The pieces are confident, smart and sexy with a touch of femininity. I can see more attention to detail in terms of shape, material used and finish. Take a look at Blake Lively in Diesel "Grupee" jeans and leather "L-Sienna" coat from the new Spring Summer 2012 collection. I am liking what I am seeing and if you like it too then let's go shopping!
Can you imagine – A Hollywood comedy for Dior directed by John Cameron Mitchell??!! Can't wait for the video but till then we got to make do with the 'making of' L.A.dy Dior. Oh and there's a quick teaser too!
This morning, when I woke up to a text announcing my credit card bill, I wasn't expecting anything to pep me up for the next few hours at least. But I got lucky! Yesterday, my friend Dionne Vaz did a cute little post on Chanel's Paris Bombay Métiers d'Art show and just now I saw this gorgeous video showcasing the brilliantly crafted collection. Now, what's even more exciting is that the soundtrack is called "Charu's theme!" Confused? The C in Picky C stands for Charu for those of you who didn't know that yet. Okay okay I get it, no big deal and Karl(yeah we are on the first name basis :P) didn't 'exactly' dedicate it to me but can't you just let the poor little blogger be?!
BTW was I the only one who thought the Chanel dress that Blake Lively wore for MET Gala was Sari-Inspired and not Grecian as others thought?! Either way, I am absolutely loving the attention India is getting from some of the top designers across the world. Chanel's collection is a great follow up act post Jimmy Choo and Gucci's "India special" clutches/bags and Hermès saris. Noice!! Do check out the StyleSlant post here.
This evening, I went to Ogaan to check out Anupama Dayal's resort wear collection over Mimosas and cheese. It's the collection she is going to showcase at the Indian Resort Fashion Week in two days' time. As I went through those rows of brightly hued pieces, I instantly fell in love with a powder blue pleated dress. As I have said many times earlier, I have a total weakness for pleated dresses. Here are some pictures of me that dress and more!
Finally India is about to have it's own India Resort Fashion Week in Goa starting 7th Dec and among the designers I am really looking forward to are duo Shivan & Narresh. Not because I ended up at their studio with the lovely Rimzim Dadu last Saturday and had a great impromptu evening. Not because I am in love with the lights in their swank workstation. Not because they are in possession of a video with me dancing to "tututu tututara." I am really looking forward to their collection simply because I have always admired their über haute swimsuits and resort wear, and the latest collection is just fabulous!
Here are some of my picks from their lookbook and their first fashion film – Forêt Noire, a sneak peek into the collection they are going to showcase at the IRFW. You go guys!
2011 has been the year of fashion videos with every brand worth its salt releasing really fun videos to launch their collections. It's almost the end of the year and it's only fair that we pick the top 3. Because we can! To make things easy, I have picked the top 10 International + Indian fashion videos of 2011 and now you help me pick the best 3!! Just scroll down to watch all the listed videos and then vote for up to three videos of your choice. Yeah? Let's do this!
Enjoyed the films? Now don't forget to scroll up and vote!! Oh, and don't forget to tell your friends, spread the word!!

Washington -- William McGurn, the esteemed Wall Street Journal columnist and soon-to-be editor of the editorial page of the New York Post, has made an interesting observation about the fabulous Bush tax cuts that are about to lapse. They amount to a substantial sum of money for a middle-class family. For the middle class it will be a big deal if they disappear. President Barack Obama has portrayed the Bush tax cuts as a rich person's tax cut, but now he is portraying them as a huge tax break for the middle class. Of a sudden he says do not let them lapse! Instead raise taxes on the wealthy!
The president recently said, "A typical middle-class family of four would see its income taxes go up by $2,200. That's $2,200 out of people's pockets. That means less money for buying groceries, less money for filling prescriptions, less money for buying diapers." Certainly we would all agree with the president that a $2,200 bite from a middle-class income will hurt the middle class, a substantial swath of the American people. Thus he wants to take a bigger bite from the top two percent of income earners towards balancing the budget. That will, according to his plan, add up to seven percent of the deficit. Unfortunately it hardly puts a dent in his trillion-dollar problem, a trillion-dollar problem that will confront him every year of his second term. Moreover, it will almost certainly impede growth and job creation. What is to be done? Sacrifice the middle class or sacrifice the upper two percent?
The president is depicting the present fiscal problem as a tax-revenue problem. Rarely does he speak of spending. Yet it is clearly a spending problem. The federal government spends too much money, and under his plan it will spend even more. According to The Heritage Foundation's studies, median income earnings have grown since 1970 by 24 percent. On the other hand federal spending since 1970 has grown by 287.5 percent. Put another way, the historic average of revenue is 18.1 percent of GDP, and the historic average of federal spending is 20.2 percent of GDP. Clearly the fiscal problem we face is a spending problem.
Back in the 1980s President Ronald Reagan was also confronted with a spending problem. His answer was to keep taxes down. It left the citizenry with more money in their pockets, which was good for savings and personal expenditure. Yet even more salutary, it did not leave much revenue for the federal government to spend.

2013 Volkswagen Eos Problems
2.0L turbo charged engines may develop a hesitation on acceleration and/or illumination of the Check Engine Light due to a failed high pressure fuel pump or a worn camshaft follower or camshaft. Our technicians tell us that whenever the high pressure fuel pump is replaced the camshaft and the follower should be checked for wear. The camshaft lobe pushes on the follower to operate the high pressure fuel pump. Frequent oil changes and use of synthetic oil may help with this wear issue.

Cuz they don't wanna see you happier than them and girl you swear they all
Lyric Meaning
Jealousy in the air tonight, I could tell.
Girls are catty creatures, and every girl has a couple of those friends that just like to hate on everything they do because she's better. She calls them her friends when they really are her haters. You know what they say "Misery loves company."
He also addresses this in his So Far Gone song "Little Bit":

This book is a random collection of photo's taken in the last 3 years. They are not professional but I think thats why I like them. They were taken in Australia in Newcastle, Melbourne and Sydney and cover a huge range of subjects from chickens to china town.
They are not in any kind of order.

Clinical Features
Townes-Brocks syndrome (TBS, OMIM#107480) is a multiple malformation syndrome characterized by the triad of imperforate anus, dysplastic ears frequently associated with sensorineural and/or conductive hearing impairment, and thumb malformations (triphalangeal thumbs, preaxial polydactyly, hypoplastic thumbs) without shortening of the radius. Foot malformations (flat feet, overlapping toes) and genitourinary malformations are also common. Renal impairment including end-stage renal disease, congenital heart disease and mental retardation may occur (Kohlhase. GeneReviews. 2007).
Townes-Brocks Syndrome (TBS) is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Penetrance seems complete, but expressivity is highly variable. SALL1 is the only gene known to be associated with TBS; about half of cases are caused by de novo mutations. SALL1 encodes sal-like protein 1, a C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor of the SAL type. Sal-like protein 1 appears to be an essential developmental regulator, which interacts with SALL4 and is regulated by TBX5 (Harvey&Logan Development 133:1165–1173, 2006). The majority of reported mutations in SALL1 are nonsense and frameshift mutations that positioned in exon 2 of the gene and resulted in premature stop codons. Both haploinsufficiency and dominant-negative effects of mutated SALL1 protein have been proposed for the pathogenesis of TBS (Kohlhase GeneReviews 2007; Maquat et al. Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 5:89–99, 2004; Borozdin et al. Hum Mutat 27:211–212, 2006; Kiefer et al. Hum Mol Genet. 12:2221–2227, 2003).

Testing Strategy
This test involves bidirectional sequencing using genomic DNA of all coding exons of the SALL1 gene plus ~20 bp of flanking non-coding DNA on each side. We will also sequence and single exon (Test #100) in family members of patients with a known mutation or to confirm research results.
Indications for Test
Candidates for this test are patients with clinical features consistent with Townes-Brocks syndrome, and family members of patients who have known SALL1 mutations.

|Test Number
|CPT Code
|SALL1 Sanger Sequencing
|SALL1 Targeted Familial Mutations - Single Exon Sequencing
|SALL1 Targeted Familial Mutations - Double Exon Sequencing
|SALL1 Targeted Familial Mutations - Triple Exon Sequencing
Test Procedure
Nomenclature for sequence variants was from the Human Genome Variation Society (http://www.hgvs.org). As required, DNA is extracted from the patient specimen. PCR is used to amplify the indicated exons plus additional flanking non-coding sequence. After cleaning of the PCR products, cycle sequencing is carried out using the ABI Big Dye Terminator v.3.0 kit. Products are resolved by electrophoresis on an ABI 3730xl capillary sequencer. In most cases, sequencing is performed in both forward and reverse directions; in some cases, sequencing is performed twice in either the forward or reverse directions. In nearly all cases, the full coding region of each exon as well as 20 bases of non-coding DNA flanking the exon are sequenced.

Clinical Sensitivity
Sequencing of SALL1 is predicted to detect disease mutations in up to 70% of individuals with the classic triad of malformations (Kohlhase GeneReviews 2007; Kohlhase et al. Am J Hum Genet 64:435-445, 1999; Marlin et al. Hum Mutat 14:377-386, 1999). Large deletions involving single or multiple exons have been reported to account for less than 5% cases (Borozdin et al. Hum Mutat 27:211-212, 2006); such deletions are generally not detected by sequence analysis.

Analytical Validity
As of November 2014, we compared 11.3 megabases of Sanger DNA sequence generated at PreventionGenetics to NextGen sequence generated in other labs. We detected only 4 errors in our Sanger sequences, and these were all due to allele dropout during PCR. For Proficiency Testing, both external and internal, in the 11 years of our lab operation we have Sanger sequenced roughly 4,000 PCR amplicons (~ 2 megabases). Only one error was identified.
Our Sanger sequencing is capable of detecting virtually all nucleotide substitutions within the PCR amplicons. Similarly, we detect essentially all heterozygous or homozygous deletions within the amplicons. Homozygous deletions which overlap one or more PCR primer annealing sites are detectable as PCR failure. Heterozygous deletions which overlap one or more PCR primer annealing sites are usually not detected (see Analytical Limitations). All heterozygous insertions within the amplicons up to about 100 nucleotides in length appear to be detectable. Larger heterozygous insertions may not be detected. All homozygous insertions within the amplicons up to about 300 nucleotides in length appear to be detectable. Larger homozygous insertions may masquerade as homozygous deletions (PCR failure).
Analytical Limitations
In exons where our sequencing did not reveal any variation between the two alleles, we cannot be certain that we were able to PCR amplify both of the patient's alleles. Occasionally, a patient may carry an allele which does not amplify, due for example to a deletion or a large insertion. In these cases, the report contains no information about the second allele.
Similarly, our sequencing tests have almost no power to detect duplications, triplications, etc. of the gene sequences.
In most cases, only the indicated exons and roughly 20 bp of flanking non-coding sequence on each side are analyzed. Test reports contain little or no information about other portions of the gene, including many regulatory regions.
In nearly all cases, we are unable to determine the phase of sequence variants. In particular, when we find two likely causative mutations for recessive disorders, we cannot be certain that the mutations are on different alleles.
Our ability to detect minor sequence variants, due for example to somatic mosaicism is limited. Sequence variants that are present in less than 50% of the patient's nucleated cells may not be detected.
Runs of mononucleotide repeats (eg (A)n or (T)n) with n >8 in the reference sequence are generally not analyzed because of strand slippage during PCR and cycle sequencing.
Unless otherwise indicated, the sequence data that we report are based on DNA isolated from a specific tissue (usually leukocytes). Test reports contain no information about gene sequences in other tissues.

Deletion/Duplication Testing Via Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization
|Test Number
|CPT Code
|SALL1 Deletion/Duplication Testing via aCGH
*Prices: Allele copy number analysis of one gene $ 940
Allele copy number analysis of each additional gene $ 60
Targeted testing for relatives of probands tested at PreventionGenetics is available (Test #1400, $340) if we are able to test the del/dup by PCR or MLPA.
Test Procedure
As required, DNA is extracted from the patient specimen. Equal amounts of genomic DNA from the patient and a gender matched reference sample are amplified and labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes, respectively. To prevent any sample cross contamination, a unique sample tracking control is added into each patient sample. Each labeled patient product is then purified, quantified, and combined with the same amount of reference product. The combined sample is loaded onto the designed array and hybridized for at least 22 hours at 65ºC. Arrays are then washed and scanned immediately with 2.5 µM resolution. Only data for the gene(s) of interest for each patient are extracted and analyzed.
PreventionGenetics' high density gene-centric (HDGC) aCGH is designed to have comprehensive coverage for both coding and non-coding regions for each targeted gene with very high density probe coverage. The average probe spacing within each exon is 47 bp or a minimum of three probes per exon covering all targeted exons and UTRs. The average probe spacing is 289 bp covering all intronic, 2kb upstream and downstream regions of each targeted gene. In addition, the flanking 300-bp intronic sequence on either side of targeted exons has enriched probe coverage. Therefore, PreventionGenetics' aCGH enables the detection of relatively small deletion and amplification mutations within a single exon of a given gene or deletion and amplification mutations encompassing the entire gene.
Clinical Sensitivity
Analytical Validity
PreventionGenetics' high density gene-centric custom designed aCGH enables the detection of relatively small deletion and amplification mutations (down to ~300 bp) within a single exon of a given gene or deletion and amplification mutations encompassing the entire gene. PreventionGenetics has established and verified this test's accuracy and precision.
Analytical Limitations
Any copy number changes smaller than 300bps (within the targeted region) may not be detected by our array.
This array may not detect deletion and amplification mutations present at low levels of mosaicism or those present in genes that have pseudogene copies or repeats elsewhere in the genome.
aCGH will not detect balanced translocations, inversions, or point mutations that may be responsible for the clinical phenotype
Breakpoints, if happened outside the targeted gene, may be hard to define.
The sensitivity of this assay may be reduced when DNA is extracted by an outside laboratory.

Folks, the combines are rolling in Brazil, as farmers harvest the 2013 soybean crop. For a first-hand look at what the yields and conditions are like, here's a report from our friends with the Crop Expedition at Gazeto do Povo newspaper in Curitiba, Brazil.
In Mato Grosso (Center West Brazil), farmers are getting yields as low as 30 bu/acre and as high as 48 bu/acre on early planted beans. They say these are the areas planted right before the two week drought period in November and will probably be the worst areas of the season, as yields tend to go up as harvest progresses to those fields planted after that dry period.
Harvesting season is only beginning down here. There is some activity underway in parts of Mato Grosso and Goias, but that's pretty much it. So far, we've been hearing other reports of 44 to 48 bu/acre beans in those areas, which is pretty good, normal to above average yields for early planted beans. Parana is getting ready to start in the next few weeks and farmers are excited cause they have been having plenty of rains lately. Same goes for Rio Grande do Sul. There are, however, some people complaining about a dry spell in Mato Grosso do Sul. They are saying that if it doesn't rain soon early planted beans yields can be cut by 50%. But, a co-worker of mine was there a few weeks ago and he says he doesn't believe that is true, at least not for the most part of the state. In MaToPIBa (Maranhao, Tocantins, Piaui and Bahia) planting season was delayed due to lack of rain early in the season. So far crops are looking great there, but there is still a very long way to go.
We are now at a point that everything can change in only a few days, pretty much like August for US beans, you know.
We will need at least three weeks to have a better understanding of what our crops will actually be like this year. What I can tell you right now is that Brazil will surely have a WAY better crop that last year. Even though yield losses are still a possibility, it that happens it absolutely will not be a widespread thing.
As far as marketing goes, there has been a lot of forward sales this year (at least half of the soybean crop is already priced). Most of the other half will probably go from the combine to the local elevators. Domestic prices are pretty good now, and they tend to go down as harvest progresses.

Greenfield - Greendale gave Whitnall its first real test of the 2012 softball season on April 4, but the Falcons met the challenge.
The Panthers pushed across three runs in the bottom of the third inning for a 3-1 lead, but Whitnall tallied twice in each of the fourth and sixth frames to take a 5-3 advantage, then went on to a 6-3 victory.
The Falcons improved to 3-0 overall and, in the Woodland Conference, tied with New Berlin Eisenhower for the lead. Those two teams are set to meet at 4:15 p.m. April 17 at Eisenhower in an early-season showdown.
Greendale slipped to 2-1 overall and in the Woodland and will visit South Milwaukee at 4:15 p.m. April 17.
"The game was a great first test for our girls," Whitnall head coach Tom Hickman said. "We had to deal with our first bit of adversity when we gave up our first runs of the season."
In the third, the Panthers tallied two runs and had additional base runners. Whitnall pitcher Carolyn Dudek picked up a strikeout for the first out of the inning, then allowed a sacrifice fly for the third run before ending the inning on a groundout.
"Carolyn showed great poise to not get rattled," Hickman said.
The Falcons then answered with the pair of two-run innings to grab the lead, and they blanked Greendale the rest of the way with the help of a fine play by Lizzy Menden in center field.
Menden made a circus catch of a fly ball in deep center, then threw to third base to double off a runner who left early to help get Whitnall out of another jam in the fifth inning.
"This was the first time this year that we had to deal with runners on base and in scoring position, and that we had to play from behind," Hickman continued. "The composure that the girls showed was what I would expect if we were in the middle of the season, not week two. The ability of our girls to not get down says a lot about their resolve."
Liz Thon collected two hits and two runs batted in for the Falcons, while Renee Caron tripled in one run and finished with two RBIs as well. Maria James had two hits, including a triple, and stole two bases, and Kim Robinson also had two hits. Hickman said Robinson, Thon and Caron all played well in the field.
Dudek worked the entire game, allowing four hits and striking out seven.
For Greendale, Natalie Burton went 1-for-2 with an RBI and Heather Justus worked a complete game on the mound, giving up eight hits and fanning five.
Despite the loss, Panthers head coach Sarah Dominguez is optimistic about the season, which began with Greendale's first victory over rival Greenfield in six seasons.
"We are a young team with experience," Dominguez said. "I am very excited about the season and what we have done thus far. This is a very dedicated and fun group of ladies with a lot of talent."

I don't think too many people will care to see Molina fight anyways, know I don't. Okay, so you fought a style that was probably gonna get you the win but boxing isn't just about winning. You have to impress fans and be an interesting watch. I'll go out on a limb and say not many people enjoyed watching Carlos Molina last night.

Dont care much about Molina but Kirkland is going to get KTFO soon.
Kirkland is the new Devon Alexander. Cant win against lesser opponents? Dont worry, your promoter or "advisor" will help ya out with a win!
Dude already been KO'd by a bum, and yesterday was exposed that he cant box.
Dude a fraud, a judah, definition of a ***** and a paper champion.

Shahnaz's Group
There are four other women in my loan group: Nazira B., who is borrowing for her grocery store; Walan B., who will invest her share of the loan to buy a machine for their business; Manzoora B., who embroiders clothes; and Parween A., who wants to buy a donkey cart. These women are very cooperative and will repay your loan on time in a responsible manner.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Memorial Day weekend will be especially poignant for Sephardic Temple Tifereth Israel, a congregation with a tradition of honoring war veterans and members of the Jewish War Veterans (Department of California). More than 100 people are expected to gather at Home of Peace to dedicate Los Angeles' first monument for Jews who laid down their lives in the defense of our country.
"A lot of people say that Jews never fought. It hurts me when I hear this," says Sephardic Temple board member Hy Arnesty. "So many Jews - men and women - have given their lives for this country."The idea for the monument came to Rabbi Daniel Bouskila during a trip to Washington D.C. with a graduating confirmation class. Following a visit to the National Museum of American Jewish Military History, he took the students to the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery. "Some of the students wanted to know if there was a monument honoring Jewish war veterans," says Bouskila, who served in the Israel Defense Forces in 1984.
Bouskila approached Arnesty, a veteran of two wars who had helped establish the congregation's annual Veterans Day Shabbat dinner, with the idea of a establishing a memorial to honor all Jewish veterans. The monument will list all of the wars in which America has fought - from the American Revolution to Desert Storm - and bear the emblem of the 104-year-old Jewish War Veterans of the United States, the oldest veterans group in the nation.
The ceremony, to be followed by a catered reception, will take place Sun., May 28, at noon in the Garden of Maimonides at Home of Peace, 4334 Whittier Blvd. in Los Angeles. For more information, call (310) 475-7311.

Peyton's Lesson #7: Approach Tasks With Joy
Approach all things with the same enthusiasm, no matter how many times you've done them.
Peyton & I have been working on a new trick: wave. It confused her greatly, as she was used to the palm of my hand as meaning "high-five". Then she saw the waving motion, and thought "dance?" but that wasn't what I wanted either. (Don't get me wrong, she would definitely get frustrated after a while, if I kept at it too long.) But her enthusiasm and determination for figuring out what I was trying to get her to do is awesome. Peyton finds joy even in the difficult tasks.
Mom told us we needed to rake leaves before the weather got really bad & it started snowing. That's right, FREAKING SNOW. Ugh. I was putting my shoes on, reluctantly getting ready to go out to rake, when I thought about voicing my complaints. That's when I looked to my side & noticed Peyton's excited expression at the anticipation of getting to go outside. So I stopped myself, distracted by her cuteness. Needless to say, once Peyton realized we were NOT going for a car ride, & all she ended up doing was standing around watching us shove leaves all over the place, she wasn't quite as excited as before. But she was still happy to be out there with us. (& to run through the occasional leaf pile!) Unpleasant tasks: still finds joy.
I've been noticing all the times Peyton has shown enthusiasm or joy for what she is doing. Even the seemingly mundane, daily things. It's almost contagious sometimes. I often wonder what she would look like if she still had a tail, the amount of times I notice her little "nubbin" moving with excitement.
So, even though I don't see myself jumping for joy at everything I do… approaching unpleasant tasks with a slightly more positive attitude has really made a difference. Of course, Life and the wonderful people in it never fail to test me on this. Hopefully I can keep it up..
Peyton's Lesson #6: A Best Friend
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself.
– Josh Billings
A dog is a man's best friend.
I was not very nice to Peyton a few days recently. I still made sure she was fed, & her bathroom needs were met. However, I hadn't been playing ball with her, or spending much quality time with her. Yet, I was almost tricked into thinking I was spending quality time with her, because she continued to stay by my side while I did what I wanted to do. (I'm so thankful for you, Peyton!)
Well, one night she was [understandably] very antsy. That's when I realized I hadn't been very fair to her. I hadn't been paying attention to her & giving her the appropriate amount of play time she deserved. I don't play ball with her just for me and my sake, only when it's convenient for me, or if I feel like it. I play ball for her, because it makes her happy. (Which her happiness in turn does make me happy.) She gives me so much, and she doesn't even expect that much in return. The least I can do for her is make sure she has her daily fun/playtime. I wasn't being a very good friend.
If I haven't mentioned it previously, I am moved back into my parents' house. Still on the job hunt. My state of mind isn't the best here. I don't want to be here. I tend to be a selfish person, & it's easy for me to get wrapped up in my own pity parties about how much life sucks here. Mentally, it's just not the best situation for me. Peyton is my saving grace. She prevents me from doing anything stupid/drastic.
Thank you, Peyton, for keeping me sane & reminding me to be less selfish of a friend/person. She is truly my best friend, & I hope to continue to be the best friend I can be for her.
I'm so sorry for ignoring you Peyton.
Shit [Grad] Students [Still] Say/Do
Ok, so as a sort of disclaimer I want to say a few things. One, I am guilty of all these things at one point or another. I'm not above any fellow students. Two, I occasionally find myself starting to fall back into a few of these "mindsets", but I quickly remind myself I am now a graduate student & too old for this shit. Three, these are all things that I thought at least most graduate students would have grown out of by now. (Apparently, I get the faulty idea that every one of my peers should be at the same level, on the same page as me.)
Here are some things I've noticed my classmates doing/saying that old-student-ashley would have said, but new-student-ashley shakes her head/laughs at:
"Can I see my grade?" / "Why aren't our tests/papers graded by now? It's been two days!"
- dude, calm down. Instructors/professors have lots of things to do. They're busy too. Give them a reasonable amount of time. Not like finding out your grade sooner is going to change it any, anyway. As long as papers are handed back a reasonable amount of time before the next one… all's good. (Different educators grade papers differently. Students should be able to have feedback to know how to write the next one.)
"It would have been nice to have a study guide. There's just too much information."
- A study guide? Are we in fourth grade? Yes, I used to love study guides. I would bitch & whine when professors didn't give us one. But, professors even stopped the study-guide-giving in my undergrad. So I started talking to the professors outside of class, trying to figure out how their brain works & if they'd give any sort of direction for study focus. Really the "too much information" is usually BS. (& Trust me, I've used that excuse MANY, many times!!) The main points are reasonable to figure out, from the textbook layout or the professors lectures. Time management plays a huge factor in this. Whatta bitch.
- You shouldn't be "learning things for the test" anyway. Especially not in grad school, when you should definitely be taking only classes that interest you. You should want to just learn about the subject.

"I just can't retain anything if I study days before the exam. I swear I learn best when I study the night/day before!"
- HAHAHAHHAHA. Hello, I'm Queen Procrastinator, if we haven't met before. While I haven't figured out how to NOT write a paper the night before it's due, I, Master Procrastinator, have shockingly concluded from recent experiments… the best way of studying is by learning & reviewing a little bit each day along the way. NOT by
"studying"cramming the night before. (I'm not saying cramming doesn't work, because it can & has for me, but it truly is better not to. & it now it highly annoys me when people confuse studying & cramming for some reason..) I have also found this method to even reduce complaints about too much information!

Complain complain complain how hard something is. Once it's done, brag about how easy it was.
- You should be punched in the face for doing this. Especially if you go on & on about it. We all remember the hours of complaining and bitching; it wasn't that simple. Someone should have slapped me once or twice during my undergrad…
Spooky Sunday: Part 1
Scary movie /31 Nights of Horror Update:
October 1: Shutter (The Original)
Ok, so someone once told me the original movie is much scarier & better than the American remake. (I've heard from horror film fans that this is generally the case.) I saw the remake a few years back in 2008 when it was released. Even though it wasn't that long ago, I do not recall if I liked it or not.
Anyway, back to this original version. I did not care for it. I don't know if it was: the fact that I had too high expectations for it, the fact that I had to read every conversation, or that I already knew the plot/storyline and that just wrecked the whole effect for me. Either way I was not too impressed.
October 2: Cabin in the Woods
This is one I had already watched previously, but I had schoolwork to do & thus didn't want to be distracted too much. Ok, this one gets a little bit of a mixed reaction from viewers, & understandably so. It's a bizarre movie, to say the least. It's a horror/comedy. If you're a die hard horror fan, (& I mean not just "I like to get scared") you'll probably love this, as there's references to other horror films. I can't tell you too much about it if you haven't seen it, otherwise it will give the movie away.
October 3: Kill Theory
This film is one of those 8 Films to Die For. I didn't know what that meant, so I looked it up, & basically it is an independent horror film festival event held annually. Cool. This one sounded good, but I wasn't expecting too much. So I decided to give it a try, & I am certainly glad I did. It was a psychological take on your slasher film. Sort of like Saw. I recommend this movie if you like slasher films that have a decent storyline along with the blood & gore. I think I'm going to give more of these After Dark Horrorfest / 8 Films to Die For movies a try…
October 4: The Crazies
I've seen this movie multiple times. That alone should tell you it's good. But here's a few things I like about it most:
- The pace of the movie. Not too fast, but not too slow.
- It's not another stupid zombie eating brains movie.
- The main characters aren't superhuman. They're just human.
- Although the visuals are AWESOME in this movie, it doesn't rely on that to keep your interest.
October 5: Dot Kill
Terrible movie. I found it hard to keep watching, I lost interest. The film/editing was also weird at parts. The plot was boring, the script poorly written. Predictable. Go watch fear dot com instead. (Actually, I watched fear dot com a long time ago, so I don't know how good it is. But I'm pretty sure I liked it better than this one.)
Should I keep doing this type of (weekly, biweekly) post for the movies I watch this month? I don't know how interesting that was to read, or if people are interested in this type of post from me. :P If you watch any of these, please let me know your thoughts on it! Or if you have any recommendations, those would be appreciated, also. :]
My 31 Nights of Horror
It's October bitches!
Everyone knows October is the best month ever, because for one it's my birthday month, but more importantly.. it's HALLOWEEN! You should know by now that I love the scary stuff. LOVE it. Which makes it perfect that my birthday is in the same month as Halloween; all the scary movies were coming out! Every year for my birthday I made it tradition to invite all my friends to see a scary movie. It was a spooktacular time. (I'm not even sorry for that one.)
I've decided this year to attempt my own 31 Nights of Horror.
I say "attempt" because with school & everything that is going on, I'll probably miss a night or two here & there. Sometimes I may even watch a movie earlier in the day. Just depends on my schedule. But I will seriously do my best.
Anyway, I may get some suggestions from this 31 Nights of Horror site, or I might just watch a horror flick that's on TV, OR I might just watch a scary movie I have access to. Either way, I'll try my best to report back here on a somewhat regular basis & do a review-style type post. [Or maybe I'll simply live tweet it, if it's on TV. (@aayjayell is my "live tweeting" account) I enjoy live tweeting things too much.]
Although I'm sure I'll watch some of my favorites (or just a lot of ones I've already seen), I hope to get to watch some good horror flicks I haven't seen out of this!
What's your favorite scary movie?
p.s. if you're doing your own 31 nights of horror, let me know!
I Have Officially [& Finally] Turned To The Dark Side.
In honor of the iOS 7 release that Apple is supposed to be doing sometime today, I thought I would remind y'all of this post. A little over a year later, I am truly a member of the Apple army of brainwashed souls.
(ps I'm so excited for this update I just want it already!!!)
No, not that dark side. I am president of that dark side. I'm talking about the dark side of cellular devices and electronics.
That's right, I'm now an owner of a new iPhone 4s!
After my parents putting on what I'm calling their most convincing performance to date, getting me thinking it would be a while before I could say I was an iPhone person, they surprised me with it this evening. Getting up at the ass crack of dawn and doing some unpleasant things (laundry, dishes, ..yuck!) paid off after all. Anyway, now I'm just waiting for my phone cover. (Which is really gonna test my patience… It's not supposed to get here until around Aug 15-27!)
My iPhone + my MacBook Pro = Apple lover ♥
Yes, I remember the days when I shook my head at the iPhone and thought "seriously? I have an iPod touch! why would I…

THE technology used for electric car batteries is so backward they will die after only two years, experts have warned.
The cars will also be extremely expensive to run and cover far less distance on one battery charge than previously claimed, they say.
David Cameron recently confirmed the Government would go ahead with a [pounds sterling]20million grant to help Nissan build electric cars in the North-East of England. In Scotland, [pounds sterling]7.7million of funding for green vehicles was announced yesterday by First Minister Alex Salmond.
As part of the drive to replace As part of the drive to replace petrol and diesel-powered cars, a Government incentive scheme offers those who buy electric vehicles a [pounds sterling]5,000 rebate. There are also plans to spend millions on building a network of charging points.
But research by the Institution of Engineering and Technology suggests that claims about the performance of electric vehicles are 'pure fantasy'.
A team at its magazine, E&T, found the batteries are likely to burn out within two years, requiring expensive replacements. It says the batteries, which use the same lithium-ion technology as mobile phones, are unlikely to be able to run for more than 100 miles between charges.
Experts at E&T said the gap in performance between conventional cars and electric vehicles is so huge that consumers will not want to convert to electric.
They pointed out that a standard model Ford Focus or Volkswagen Golf is capable of travelling more than 360 miles on one tank of fuel, easily maintaining 70mph.
For an electric car to offer a similar level of performance, the batteries alone would have to weigh 1.5 tons. They would be larger than a conventional car and cost about [pounds sterling]100,000, experts warned. The cars themselves will cost [pounds sterling]30,000.
'Manufacturers' range calculations are based on running a complete cycle from full battery to empty,' the E&T experts said.
'Yet they already know that to have any hope of getting a reasonable life from lithium-ion batteries, they should not be run from full to empty but should be kept between 20 and 80 per cent of their charge.' Peter Miller, of automotive consultant Ricardo, said: 'To get a vehicle that behaves the same way as a petrol or diesel model is not viable for the foreseeable future.' Nissan claims its Leaf electric car, which will have a range of 47-138 miles, can be recharged to more than 80 per cent capacity in only 30 minutes at charging stations.
The company seems likely to get round the problem on battery burnout by leasing them to customers, so they don't need to go to the expense of buying them outright. …
