SYRACUSE Both of Baldiwnsville's indoor track and field teams would find modest degrees of success during the two-day Bob Grieve Memorial Invitational at SRC Arena.
Though the girls Bees had the second turn on Wednesday, they easily outdistanced their male counterparts, picking up 36 points to finish fourth out of 21 sides. Fayetteville-Manlius won with 85.66 points, with West Genesee (57 points) and Liverpool (44 points) in the next two spots.
B'ville gained victory in the 4x400 relay. The quartet of Hailey Couchman, Marissa Lathrop, Katie Wicks and Cierra Allen earned first place in four minutes, 9.24 seconds, more than six seconds ahead of runner-up F-M (4:15.52) the finish line.
Twice, the Bees were runners-up in field events. Couchman went 16 feet 5 ¼ inches in the long jump, the same distance as Mexico's Angel Bresnahan, but finished second because Bresnahan had a better second effort – 15'9", as opposed to Couchman's 15'6 ¾".
It was a bit more clear-cut in the high jump, where Emily Soeder cleared 5'2", beating everyone except East Syracuse-Minoa's Nina Zesky, who won with 5'3". Soeder also finished fourth in the triple jump, with a best effort of 31'10 ¼".
Carlie McNamara, with a toss of 29'9 ½", was fourth in the shot put. Lathrop was fifth in the 600-meter run in 1:46.41, with Wicks (1:50.40) in 12th place. Couchman, Brittany LaRock, Randi Bort and Maria Diamond were eighth (1:59.64) in the 4x200 relay.
Liz Wisely gained fifth place in the 55-meter hurdles in 9.92 seconds, with Hannah Wood (9.99 seconds) close behind in eighth place. Mia Bolton (5:17.38) and Kelley Hull (5:20.65) were ninth and 11th, respectively, in the 1,500-meter run. Elise Seyfritz was 15th in the 300-meter dash.
Going first, the boys Bees had 18 points, putting them in ninth place, though that was well off the winning total of 85 points that Liverpool posted in front of F-M, who gained 66 points.

Realizing the Promise of Technology – In a Flash
The new Ingram Micro is here. On June 23, Ingram Micro unveiled its new brand. It's far more than just a cool logo. It's reflective of a company that is reaching globally with more products and solutions to meet customer demand. It's a philosophical change that will empower Ingram Micro associates to do what's imaginable and enable its business partners to Realize the Promise of Technology™
Meeting Demand in a Flash
Today, the demand for storage has never been greater. There are multiple factors contributing to the demand including:
The good news is that storage has actually become more cost effective. But what about performance? I recently spoke with Shawn Sabanayagam, CEO of Tributary Systems, an IBM partner and leading provider of storage solutions. "The greatest challenge for storage customers is no longer price, it's performance and connectivity," said Sabanahagam. "We are working closely with IBM and have proven that with Tributary's Storage Director we can push data to IBM's flash storage at literally warp speeds of 5.2 GB per second from IBM Power Systems." To give you a frame of reference, 700-800MB per second on regular spinning disk storage devices is considered fast.
In addition to performance and economy, there are two other storage considerations, capacity and availability. However, storage metrics are not a one size fits all. The best metric is the one applicable to your storage use.
IBM is pushing the storage speed barrier to create a Power-ful boom in the marketplace.
Hop on the Train!
With all of its storage product and solution innovations, IBM has also made sure its training content has remained current and relevant. As an IBM Authorized Global Training Provider, Ingram Micro Training is ready to support your journey to storage expertise.
Contact an Ingram Micro IBM training specialist today at email@example.com or 800-456-8000 ext 76094 to help you analyze your organization's training needs and customize a training curriculum that will fit your budget.

100 Gold Brooklyn Green Condos
Green building is bursting at the seams in New York, and if you don't believe me, just read Green Buildings NYC. The REDD Group shot us an email of a project they're working on in Brooklyn (or more specifically, Vinegar Hill and Dumbo) called 100 Gold. They tell us 100 Gold is one of the first green residential developments in the area, which is surprising considering all the activity I read about on gbNYC. The 10-unit, condo building will open a model apartment on Earth Day, April 22, 2009. Here is what to expect from 100 Gold:

Where is the closest place from San Francisco by car that I could take them to a one or two days trip to play with snow? I have looked at yosemite park, Lake tahoe and Sequoia park at internet, but we are worried about possibly driving with snow and road conditions. Besides, kids don´t have patience in long trips. Many thanks to sugestions.

Hey, I'm Cutler!
I'm from coastal North Florida, spent some time in North Carolina, now in San Diego. Here, I enjoy days without humidity and nights without mosquitos, both rarities in my former haunts. I'm in graduate school at UC San Diego, as part of a lifelong quest to have a career doing something I love. In the meantime, I'm easily distracted by beautiful locations, incredible experiences, and any chance to laugh late into the night over a cocktail with my closest friends and family. Preferably accompanied by really good pretzels, properly-made buffalo wings, nearly any shrimp-based concoction. I often don't see as much as I plan to, because I spent too long agonizing over my shoe choice--sneaker affection is a fickle mistress. Having had a VW camper for 15 years, we went our separate ways two years ago, and now I'm trying out staying in "houses" and things like that when I travel. How novel! Hoping airbnb.com can help! My usual traveling companion Marilyn and I are both pretty laid back as guests--we appreciate nice things, but also have a deep and abiding love for the funky, the eclectic--the destination that speaks to its creators more than to a target market. We're probably more likely to wheel into a fried chicken shack or a roadside bbq stand than we are a 5-star restaurant. If we wanted a sanitized snooze-fest, we'd be on some hotel chain website, right? Hope to see you soon! :)

Petition for reconsideration filed in North Bennington school closureBy Patrick McArdle
Staff Writer | November 13,2012NORTH BENNINGTON - After a vote to close the North Bennington Graded School passed by 26 votes in October, a petition, which has 130 signatures may force a second revote, making three votes total, on replacing the public school with an independent school.
Gail Mauricette, school clerk for North Bennington, said a petition calling for a revote had been submitted to her on Tuesday. State law requires a petition calling for a revote have the signatures of 5 percent of registered voters.
For a vote in the North Bennington school district which includes the village and parts of the town of Shaftsbury, Mauricette said a successful petition would have needed about 80 signatures. However, she said she had not yet had a chance to check all the signatures and make sure the names match up with the voter checklist.
Joyce Scarey, who turned in the petitions on Tuesday, said she believed the people who signed them wanted the school to remain a public school and not become a private school.
In March, voters overwhelmingly approved ballot questions on Town Meeting Day that would have allowed the school board in North Bennington, called the North Bennington Prudential Committee, to close the school and lease the building and its equipment to the board of trustees for an independent school called the Village School of North Bennington.
Independent schools must be approved by the Vermont Board of Education which tabled the request in May.
Over the summer, the school board decided to continue operation of the public school. Because the vote in March included language about closing the public school at the end of the 2011-12 school year, school board members said they believed they would need a new vote before moving forward with their plans.
The state school board also said they would need a second vote before approving the independent school to be sure it had voter support.
The October vote had two questions, both of which needed to pass in order for the public school to close. The first question, asking if the voters would give the school board permission to close the school, passed with 52.3 percent of the voters supporting the question in a 294-268 vote.MORE IN This Just InPROCTOR A citizen committee has finalized a survey to poll residents on a new town office...

Tennis is a fast-paced sport for two or four players. It can be played either outdoors or indoors. Tennis players use a stringed racket to hit a ball over a net. They score points by hitting the ball out of the opponent's reach.
- tennis - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
The first book of rules for the game of tennis, entitled Sphairistike, or Lawn Tennis, was published by Maj. Walter Clopton Wingfield in 1873. The retired British cavalryman enjoyed garden-party games as well as old-school sports, but at heart he was a salesman and a promoter. He soon patented a "new and improved portable court" for his outdoor game, which mixed elements of racquets, badminton, and court tennis. Then he began advertising lawn tennis sets with special balls and bats, shoes with India-rubber soles, and Sphairistike tape measures (for the net). To make it an all-season game, he even suggested it could be played on ice skates.

Low Fat Low Sugar Chocolate Apple Snack Cake
Total Time

- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 apple, chopped and peeled (1 cup)
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Oven to 350°.
- Spray a square pan with nonstick spray, I used a glass pan.
- Combine first 5 ingredients in bowl.
- In another bowl, combine water, oil, lemon juice, vanilla.

The method states oil in this recipe but there is none in the ingredient list. Can you tell me how much oil should be added please?
This cake has a very nice consistency: Its moist and soft on the inside with a lovely crunchy top. I baked mine as muffins and that worked out very well. The taste was quite nice but I didnt really care for the cocoa powder, cause I felt it made the cake a bit bitter. I think next time I will leave it out and add some more spices to the cake.
THANK YOU for sharing this guiltfree treat with us, Kasha.
Excellent snack cake! It was very moist and packed a lot of flavor! I too used Splenda as the sweetener and, based on previous reviews, I upped the 'sugar' content to 3/4 of a cup and found that just right. It was so easy to make, the ingredients were all on-hand and without the sugar and fat, I definitely will make this again and again!

I have had multiple SLRs, film and digital. I had an Alpha 700, but got tired of carrying around a movie camera and a still camera. I researched the new Sonys. The regular DSLRs could take HD movies, but the mirror up position prevented them from using auto-focus during filmimg. I bought a Sony Alpha 55 last year for a trip, and found it to be light, agile, and an all around good camera. The functions are laid out a bit differently from the alpha 700, and you have to use Sony's program to get the movies off the SD card. My only gripe was there is no optical viewfinder. If you look into the finder, and you don't depress the shutter slightly, you get the last picture taken through it which caused confusion until I figured out the problem. The flexibility you have with interchangeable lenses seals the deal with DSLRs.

Ed - This is a great analysis of how smart VCs approach their investment decisions (from the product side). I was interested in Ian's quote: "there are elegant products that never get adopted and crappy products that do." Ian is a very smart, young investor and I'd love to hear about how his nose for "elegance" vs. "crappy" has changed over time. Or, because the market will decide what is "worthy," elegance vs. crappy doesn't matter.
Thanks Anthony. Ian -- AND I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HIM POST A COMMENT -- had indicated that products he thought were crappy got adopted meaning that adoption itself might disprove the thesis (in other words, if adopted, it ain't that crappy). I'll defer to him on the rest
Excellent piece, Ed. In this time of renewed startup exuberance--which may be driven in part by the novelty of mobile apps--it harkens back to 1999 when anyone who could code HTML was starting a "business." Your statement that "people spend too much time seeking a problem rather than building useful experience and contacts" that uncover real problems, is some of the most valuable advice I give to today's budding entrepreneurs. Plus, when you start with the problem, and get some validation, the leverage in VC discussions can shift dramatically.
Thanks for your comment Mike. This cycle isn't new. A century or so ago when American Can Company had a near monolopy, people started can-making companies in their homes so that American Can Co would acquire the company to maintain its monopolistic position. Entry costs had gone down and there were great exit opportunities. The current market has some of those dynamics. The 2006 market didn't. Efficient testing enables you to fail inexpensively and rapidly, which is good. Even with that, if you don't have a passion for the particular problem (as opposed to having a passion for not having a boss), your goose is cooked. If you just have a passion for not having a boss, go watch the great movie Slackers. Thanks again.

Truffle Bracelet by TaltyWatch

Available in my Storenvy: [link]
This was an idea I suddenly had and I couldn't rest until it was done ._. my idea was to make a chocolate truffle bracelet, with every truffle being different and with many techniques. It is less realistic than my usual work, but it makes up for it in being colorful and fun! It's fun to try different styles I also thought this rainbow crystal bead spacers were perfect for it, they make it look so shiny and brought everything together!
The first photo shows how it looks glazed, I decided to glaze it because I thought it would look better. I'm not so sure anymore, I prefer things un-glazed (like in the two bottom photos) but I know a lot of people prefer the glazed look. Oh well
Even tho it was fun to make I had no intention in keeping it, so it's up for sale in my Storenvy. I am liking Storenvy so far, so I've been putting a lot more of my work in there than I ever put on Etsy. Please pay it a visit in case you find something interesting! I'm listing things almost daily. One of the things I love is that you don't need to make an account to buy things, you can log in with your Facebook account making it so much more convenient!
I think the price is quite cheap, considering that they're 12 chocolates you're only paying $3.33 for each one x.x oh well if it doesn't sell I'm taking it apart and selling the chocolates individually. I don't ever plan to do this again so this will be completely OOAK, if I ever do something similar I plan to do the chocolates completely different. The bracelet is 21 cm/8.3 in in diameter.
Technical stuff: All laboriously made out of polymer clay by me, no molds or premades are ever used! Some of the shapes were cut using tiny cutters. Glazed for a shiny finish.
how much for the penny ?
Wow. DA spazzed. O.o
I'd probably be grawing that bracelet all day
As a recovering chocoholic, this is how jewellery should be ALL the time! What a brilliant idea and executed by an expert
So sweet!
So cute! They almost look good enough to eat. :3
Also, chocolate truffles are the best!

The bracelet looks very nice with the beads in between
And one question, that conffeti (or whatever you call it) on a truffle on the left, did you also make it? Or is it real one? ^^¡

Thank you!! I'm glad the bead spacers were well accepted
Yep I made it too! I call them sprinkles or "chispitas" in Spanish XD

very cute talty, done any multi tier cakes?

(layered or stacked i guess)
I love your work! It's always so realistic and yummy looking!
Tasty as always, and really detailed work, nicely done!
OMFG XDDD 40$??? is so expensive D: if it was cheaper I would buy it you
Nop, it is not expensive at all if you consider all the time and work I invested in it, besides as I said it consists of 12 completely different pieces so you are barely paying $3.33 for each one. I actually think that it is very cheap.
Just a little advice, think it a little bit better before you tell a crafter that their work is too expensive, it is quite offensive telling someone that their work is not worth it. I understand if you're not willing to pay for it, but it doesn't mean that it is expensive.

i made this things too.. xD there are some things when I started on my deviantart (horrible i know, now is a little better xD), because a friend wanted to upload it, and although I do not like you as much detail is quite similar, although I recognize that you have other pieces much more impressive:3 But I still think $ 40 for a wristband is very expensive .. xD and $ 3 for one piece is still very expensive. We are in crisis!
I have to agree with you -- for these truffles I prefer the unglazed look. It gives the look of a real chocolate texture. But either way, it is a beautiful bracelet. :]
Ooh looks tasty! and pretty!
Now I must go and bake some truffles ^^
They look very yummy, and I love how they are all different and yet look nice together. Bravo!
They look very yummy, and I love how they are all different and yet look nice together. Bravo!
Awesome! XD let me know if you post pics! I would love to see them
Thank you, I had fun thinking of so many different designs, colors, shapes, etc XD
Thank you, I had fun thinking of so many different designs, colors, shapes, etc XD
This is such a cute idea! And you pulled it off so marvelously. I love how each individual chocolate is unique and special. I hope that it sells because it is too beautiful and exquisite for you to take it apart and sell the little chocolate charms off individually! That would be a shame. If I could scrounge up the money (and if I wore bracelets...sadly, I don't wear much jewelry... ) I would buy it just to prevent that fate from happening to it. As for glazed vs. unglazed...I think they both work well for this piece. I actually prefer the unglazed on this one a tiny bit more, but the glazed one *is* shiny, and shiny is always good...
I'm glad that you liked it so much! I agree, it would be sad to take it apart but it would be a waste to keep it if it doesn't sell... it's not easy x.x still I'm so glad that you would buy it, you don't have to but the intention is what counts
You're welcome. And that is true...I don't know if I would have the heart to dismantle it, though, if it were me. I'm sentimental like that or something. I even hate throwing broken things away 'cause I feel kind of bad for the thing, even though it's broken. I'm weird like that. But I hope it won't come down to that. Fingers crossed.
Beautiful work Talty, this is so lovely! High quality chocolate often has that extra shine, especially in hot weather, so I have no preference on gloss or not, I think it looks great both ways. The sparkly spacers give an 'evening wear' feel to it I think - they're lovely!
Thank you so much for your feedback, and I didn't know some chocolates are shiny I don't eat a lot of them, I just think they're pretty XD
We have a tourist attraction chocolate factory about 30 minutes drive from our house. They make very high quality individual chocolate 'truffles' - they cost $1.20 each (not that this means much to anyone outside of Australia, but the large mars bar or kitkat sized bars cost $1.70 in a supermarket). The factory are very proud of their high gloss, particularly on the dark chocolate. From their website... "Enjoy the depth of colour, the sheen and gloss of the chocolate. Dark chocolate has a deep, warm colour. The lighter the cocoa, the finer the flavour"
Ohhhhhh I love that you bling-ified this!! THE SHINIES!!
I normally prefer unglazed as well, but I'm 50/50 on this
I normally prefer unglazed as well, but I'm 50/50 on this
A very cute bracelet! I would definitely wear this! The idea of the crystal bead spacers WAS perfect! They fit beautifully! Awesome work!

Evaluation Software Downloads
I have three PowerShell Webcasts coming up in the next few weeks. Click on the links below to register!!!!
In this webcast, we provide an introduction to Windows PowerShell for IT professionals and show how to automate client administrative activities in the Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista operating systems. We explore the features and capabilities of Windows PowerShell, describe customer scenarios to manage day-to-day server and client administration activities, and discuss command-line syntax usage.
Discover how Windows PowerShell command-line options can interface with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to manage client settings. In this webcast, we explore administrative tasks, how to manage the Windows Vista operating system, and how to troubleshoot network problems.
In this webcast, we look at some of the powerful scripting capabilities of Windows PowerShell. First, we introduce some of the basics of Windows PowerShell. We examine how the help system works and review the Windows PowerShell command structure. We also discuss how to format output and some basic Windows PowerShell commands. Next, we explore variable declaration and scripting constructs in Windows PowerShell to perform basic programmatic functions, like loops and branching. Then we look at advanced scripting techniques involving functions, filters, script blocks, and error handling. We also look briefly at how to use Windows PowerShell with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to gain access to a wide variety of system objects and settings. Finally, we look at how to use the Microsoft .NET Framework to build a simple form using Windows PowerShell.
Hi John. Good show, just caught the Vista one. I assume you'll be making the slides available as they were downloadable from the live meeting? I'll try to watch your blog for them so that I can mention in an upcoming PowerScripting Podcast (http://powerscripting.net)

Article: [Effects of Tongxinluo on neuron ultrastructure and endothelial cell self-repairing ability in hypoxia preconditioning mice].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To observe the ultrastructure changes of cerebral cortex neuron and endothelial cell in hypoxia preconditioning mice and the effects of Tongxinluo (TXL, Chinese traditional medilihe) on them. Mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group, hypoxia group, hypoxia preconditioning (HP) group and Tongxinluo (TXL) group. The hypoxia preconditioning mice were exposed by repetitive hypoxia for 5 runs. The animal's tolerance time of each hypoxia run was recorded. The ultrastructure change of cerebral neuron and endothelial cell were studied by electron microscope. The hypoxic tolerance time in HP and TXL groups were significantly increased run by run. Compared with HP group, the tolerance time of TXL group were increased in every run. The ultrastructure of cerebral neuron and endothelial cell in hypoxia group changed obviously, mitochondrion and endoplasmic reticulum destroyed. However they were slighter in HP group than those in hypoxia group. The change in TXL group had no obvious differentce with control group and were slighter than those in HP group. Hypoxia preconditioning shows that organism has a strong self-repairing ability. Tongxinluo self-repairing; could increase self-repairing ability and adaptive ability of mice to hypoxia obviously.
Article: [Effect of chronic psychological stress on vascular endothelial dysfunction rats and intervention tongxinlo on it].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To observe the effect of chronic psychological stress on vascular endothelial dysfunction rats and to explore the intervention and mechanism of Tongxinluo (TXL) on it. Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the normal control group (with no modeling), the endothelial dysfunction group (the HCY group), the psychological stress group (the model group), and TXL group, ten in each group. Rats in the latter three groups were fed with 3% high methionine diet to duplicate vascular endothelial dysfunction (VED) model. In addition, chronic psychological stress was applied in VED rats using repeated binding method. TXL at the dose of 1.2 g/kg body weight was given by gastrogavage. The plasma endothelin (ET) and angiotensin II (Ang II), serum cortisone (CORT) were detected by radioimmunoassay. The serum nitric oxide (NO) was detected by nitrate reductase. Ultrastructural changes of aortic endothelial cells were observed by transmission electron microscope. Serum levels of norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrin (E) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Compared with the plasma ET level and the serum NO level in the HCY group (161.70 +/- 13.96 pg/mL and 26.82 +/- 13.03 micromol/L), the plasma ET level obviously increased (178.25 +/- 21.85 pg/mL) (P < 0.05) and the serum NO level decreased (24.91 +/- 9.95 micromol/L, P > 0.05), levels of CORT, NE, and E obviously increased in the model group (all P < 0.05). Ultrastructural changes of aortic endothelial cells were obviously injured. Compared with the model group, the plasma ET level (154.74 +/- 13.27 pg/mL), Ang II, CORT, NE, and E obviously decreased (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), the serum NO level obviously increased (34.44 +/- 18.35 micromol/L, P < 0.05). Ultrastructural changes of aortic endothelial cells were obviously improved. Chronic psychological stress could obviously aggravate endothelial injury in VED rats. TXL showed protection on the vascular endothelial structure and function.

ABSTRACT: To observe the effects of Tongxinluo (TXL) on repeated hypoxic tolerance in mice and explore the underlying mechanisms. Mice were randomly divided into groups of repeated hypoxia (control) and TXL according to body weights. The mice in each group were exposed to acute repeated hypoxia for 0 run (H0), 1 run (H1), 3 runs (H3) and 5 runs (H5). The animal's tolerance time of each hypoxic exposure was recorded. Western blot was used to measure the protein levels of hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in cortex tissue. The hypoxic tolerance time in control and TXL groups significantly increased run by run. Both HIF-1alpha and VEGF proteins in two groups increased gradually. Compared with control group, the tolerance time in H1 of TXL group [(18.0 +/- 2.4) minvs (15.6 +/- 2.0) min], H3 [(68.3 +/- 13.2) min vs (41.7 +/- 9.0) min) and H5 (85.9 +/- 7.0) min vs (51.4 +/- 14.4) min] increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01); the HIF-1alpha protein expression in H1 of TXL group (0.95 +/- 0.04 vs 0.79 +/- 0.02), H3 (1.01 +/- 0.03 vs 0.85 +/- 0.02), H5 (1.16 +/- 0.02 vs 0.92 +/- 0.03) increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01); the VEGF protein expression in H3 of TXL group (1.14 +/- 0.02 vs 0.89 +/- 0.03), H5 (1.34 +/- 0.05 vs 0.99 +/- 0.07) increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Under repeated hypoxia, an organism has a strong adaptive ability. The rises of HIF-1alpha and VEGF may be an adaptive mechanism. TXL can increase obviously the adaptive ability of mice to hypoxia.
Article: Extraction, combination and distribution regularity of syndrome elements in patients with variant angina pectoris[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To explore the pathogenesis characteristics of variant angina pectoris (VAP) by extracting its syndrome elements and analyzing the combination and distribution regularity of the syndrome elements. One hundred and seventy-five case files of VAP patients were collected. The extraction of syndrome elements and symptom contribution to syndrome was completed by the partition method of complex system based on entropy theory. Diagnostic threshold was established by receiver operator characteristic curve. According to the results diagnosed by diagnostic criteria for syndrome element with quantitation, the combination and distribution regularity of the syndrome elements in patients with VAP was analyzed. The basic syndrome elements in the patients with VAP were qi deficiency, qi stagnation, blood stasis, phlegm turbidity, phlegm-heat, stagnation-heat, yin deficiency and yang deficiency syndromes. It showed that the combination types of syndrome elements could be made up of one syndrome, two, three, four or more than four syndromes. Qi deficiency, yin deficiency, qi stagnation, blood stasis and phlegm turbidity syndromes had the higher frequency than other syndrome elements in the patients with VAP. The partition method of complex system based on entropy theory can be used in extracting the syndrome elements of the patients with VAP. It is found that VAP has complicated pathogenesis according to the combination and distribution regularity of syndrome elements. Qi deficiency, qi stagnation, blood stasis, phlegm turbidity and yin deficiency syndromes are the main syndrome elements.

Halfway through the tour, they stop for lunch, providing a delicious lobster roll for each participant. Tours begin at Ocean Gateway Cruise Terminal, where customers will be dropped back off at the end of the journey.
Summer Feet Cycling
It took only the encouragement of his friend Peter and the effects of a single beer for Norman "Big Toe" to quit his investment job, buy a bike, and complete his first cross-country cycling ride. After a brutal first week, he found his cycling legs and an enduring love for the sport that led him to found Summer Feet Cycling. "I started Summer Feet with the very selfish goal of spending days outside sharing the beauty of Maine with people," Norman says, "If I wanted to spend my days dealing with swarming hoards I would have taken up bee keeping." He keeps his company and tours intimate and small, guiding his charges on half- to multi-day tours of Maine's coastlines and countryside.

It is hard to say behaviorwise.
They sometimes suggest neutering a male for behavior or aggression issues, but never a female.
There was a study that indicated that females tended to be more reactive when spayed. And if you have a female that is reactive, spaying can actually make her moreso.
If you have more than one bitch and want to avoid hormone-related issues between bitches, maybe it is a good move. Once bitches do fight -- really fight, I do not think hormones play much of a part in keeping it alive though. But usually if my girls get nasty at all, it is when one or the other or both are coming into season. Best to just keep them separated then.
Females have a hormone that is released that actually will calm down situations. With a ovarihysterectomy this hormone is no longer produced, and so it can make bitches seem even more aggressive or reactive.
I have yet to hear of bitches that have gone in to be spayed who have not had these issues, come out with issues though. So, I would not worry about negative consequences in behavior or temperament due to a spay, unless you are already having issues.
I have heard of a young bitch being trained as a police dog who showed a lot of promise, they spayed her, and she lost interest, and was eventually dropped from the program. Often bitches will put on weight after a spay.
I have had a mongrel bitch spayed at about a year of age and she was just as energetic and amiable after the fact as before, other than stomach cancer surgery at 18 months, she have almost no health problems, and we put her down at 14.
I had one older bitch spayed at 6.5 years. She had a bladder infection, then checked low thyroid, and died at 8.5 years from hemangiosarcoma. She had no behavioral or temperament changes from being spayed. On her last day, she bounded out into the field and I thought how she resembled Joy the puppy bounding around.

I have had 3 females in my adult life and all have been rescues, therefore they have all been spayed. I have never noticed any difference in behavior before and after. My first dog did gain some weight but she was a lazy dog by nature so I didn't attribute it to the spay.

Scribble Rabbit by KatarniaHolbartWatch
©2010-2016 KatarniaHolbart
So about 8 hours later (not all at once, over the course of two weeks) after I got the idea I did this. It originated during Game (during combat rounds) while I doodle on paper. When I got the Rabbit at the Studio I fiddled with it for a while before coming to this idea. It was a pain and after every 45 minutes my hand cramped but I enjoy doing it.
I also have a few more pieces in the works with these doodles since I found I like doing them a lot.
I also have a few more pieces in the works with these doodles since I found I like doing them a lot.
Love the doodles.....give it character
Charming. A great way to immortalize doodles
Incredibly cute, I really love it!
Very cute!
Love it! I used to work at a pottery shop, but never had the patience to sit and create something so lovely as this!
Well it was something to do when I have to wait for the outer glaze to set before I load so it did take a lot of time but not all at once.
wow, beautiful work
Magnificent! It must have taken a lot of patience to do this, especially with such a steady hand!
are they arcane runes that when read will bring the rabbit to life as an invincible harbinger of justice?
I'm not sure but if there is then I have a few friends that will help me figure it out, as long it doesn't get any larger than ten feet.
Beautiful job, and I can see why your hand cramped up! I don't know if I'd have had the patience to complete this sort of project!
Me either but due to working at the Studio chipping away at it was something to past the time when it was slow.

Hey guys I have always used a scuf in the past but looking to buy a new ps4 xonttollwr.
I don't want or need mods just something better than the standard.
Go to imagine custom controllers.
If you don't need mods, there isn't going to be anything better than a normal DS4. I'm going to get a PS4 scuf myself. Especially since I can use it on PS4 and PS3.

Privacy Shades, Blinds & Window Treatments
- Opaque products to maintain privacy
- Routeless slats avoid light seepage
- Add a liner for increased opaqueness
- Layer coverings for light versatility
- Good for bed, bath & streetside rooms
Privacy blinds and shades are opaque, or non-transparent, enough to prevent view-through, even when backlit. Perfect for rooms facing the street or a neighbor, privacy shades or routeless blinds are perfect for keeping the inside of your home hidden. Some blind styles, such as woven woods, will require an added privacy liner to provide the extra opacity needed. We also recommend choosing a top down/bottom up lift option or layering your treatments, like a faux wood combined with drapery, to best balance your light control and privacy needs. While these products will block view-through, they will not necessarily block all light like our blackout shades.

"Great value for money!"
By amberdana from Becker MN
I spent a lot of time shopping for custom drapes for my two big picture windows; it was impossible to find off the rack drapes wide enough, and custom drapes through Costco's partner company were insanely expensive. I am so happy I found Blindsgalore--the employees I telephoned and emailed were so professional, and I am so happy with how great my drapes look!View this product
