Hypnosis Can Help Ease Pain
by Dr. Reeja Tharu on May 17, 2012 at 12:44 PM Health In Focus - G J E 4
Hypnosis is a psychological tool that is used to explore the human mind but it has now been highlighted by experts that this technique may also be employed to relieve pain.
Hypnosis has, all along, suffered a dubious reputation; mainly because the average man sees it being employed in movies, to control the mind against the wishes of the person concerned.
AdvertisementBut according to Dr Bob Large, a Perth-based psychiatrist and pain medicine specialist, hypnosis could be employed to control pain, even in those who are undergoing surgery. It has been observed that some patients can be deeply hypnotized to enable them to undergo surgeries such as thyroid or gall bladder removal, without the use of any anesthetizing drug.
Dr Large claims that about 15 percent of people can be easily hypnotized. The best response comes from those with an active imagination, those who are pliable and from children in the age group of 8-12 as they are naturally blessed with vivid imagination.
It has been observed that some sort of pain control is possible by engaging the patient in a good 'clinical interaction' using a reliable hypnotic technique. This indicates that anesthetists and other clinicians can interact with the patient during the pre-operative period using a set of instructions and suggestions that are capable of creating positive vibes in the patient rather than alarming the patient.
Clinical Hypnosis is perfectly ethical; it involves motivating the patient to be in control rather than controlling the patient. The technique has been used in many fields of health care involving chronic pain including cancer care and also in dentistry, childbirth and surgery.
Hypnosis begins by asking the patient to gaze at a particular spot on the wall and go easy on everything else.
Childbirth is a promising area where hypnosis can be used effectively. Women were able to deliver with greater comfort and required less anesthetic drugs. Some did not require drugs at all. Another plus was that the baby thus delivered was less sedated.
Dentistry is another area that could potentially benefit from hypnosis. Some dentists use hypnosis as a method to reduce anxiety among dental patients.
Dental Association president Dr Geoff Lingard said "You get patients who are more anxious than average. In those cases hypnotherapy can certainly be an effective aid to relaxing them and providing them with comfortable, pain-free dentistry."
There is nothing extraordinary about the role of hypnosis in pain relief as it just taps into our inner potential to be able to slip into an altered state of awareness.
In some parts of the world hypnosis has been employed on patients before a surgery. Experts believe that in future, hypnosis will be used widely around the world as a form of analgesia and anesthesia.
Nevertheless the health community is sceptical. Some believe that hypnosis can never take the place of anaesthetic drugs but can be a part of a multi-modal approach. At best it can be considered as a good adjunct for making people feel comfortable before a surgery. It can never replace chemical anaesthetic drugs, many believe.

Go back in time and listen to some classic radio shows with the great actor himself, Orson Welles. Welles and his radio performances are just as good as his movies. The internet is a treasure trove of classic radio shows that you can find and legally download for free. There are many chilling ones out there like "Suspense," "Lights Out,""Inner Sanctum, "Nightfall," etc well I've searched for some good horror ones with Mr. Welles.
Did you know that Orson Welles was Dracula once? For radio that is. The actor in 1938 performed for Mercury Theatre on Air (he also created it) as Dracula and Dr. John Seward. It was also the first radio program to air for Mercury Theatre, it was before the famous "The War of the Worlds" one too. This was produced in July 11. Elizabeth Fuller, Agnes Moorehead, Ray Collins, and Karl Swenson were also in the radio production. You can download this from Archive.
"The Hitch-hiker," aired on September 2, 1942 on the radio program, Suspense. The story was written by Lucille Fletcher, and "Twilight Zone" fans might remember a story like this on the program, though Sterling's version is a little different than the original. If you like a good ghost story, then listen to this one. You can listen to this on YouTube or you can get it on Archive.
So these two stories are roughly around an hour. Welles and his voice is perfect for these two creepy tales, one about an immortal vampire, the other about a man that is haunted by a ghastly man. So while working or just relaxing plug in some headphones and enjoy these two tales from your computer. It's a modern take on a vintage idea.
Do you like listening to Old Time Radio? What's your favorite program? Please share your thoughts!

what was it that Suigetsu and juugo found at orochimaru's hideout??? they said it could end the war just with it, whaddya think it might be??? was it Madara uchiha himself or something Bigger????
what was it that Suigetsu and juugo found at orochimaru's hideout??? they said it could end the war just with it, whaddya think it might be??? was it Madara uchiha himself or something Bigger????
it is the secrets of edo. it even tells how to end it without help of the caster.
Cept that Suigetsu doesnt know that Edo is being used in the war....
There are many that think it is an Edo Tensei CounterAttack but also they think it's the research of the evolution of the Sharingan to the Rinnegan.
It's going to be one of three things...The ancient Uchiha tablet decoded which probably contains the true secret to obtaining the Rinnegan, a way to stop edo tensei or Tobi's weakness/origins of his Sharingan.
I never liked orochimaru and I always thinking that he was a loser.but now my mind has completely changed.I believe that he is the reason of everything.why orochimaru left the organization(akatsuki)? and then tobi joins.there is a relationship about them.WHY TOBI CANT TRUST KABUTO?.my opinion is that TOBI and orochimaru was enemys.KABUTO was always on orochimaru's side.mabe thats why tobi does not trust him.anyways I believe that orochimaru secret scroll has to do with tobi and has to do also with zetsus...
After typing this much text, I'm not sure I'm interested in the third either. We can deduce a few of his weaknesses from his fights againt Minato, Torune, and Konan, though with his inherited Rinnegan abilities and knowledge, they may know longer be a problem. As for the source of the Sharingan, well we've seen his lair filled with preserved Sharingan which we may assume were stolen from Uchiha corpses after Tobi and Itachi massacred the clan.
Overall, a good effort there, but after further review I find all 3 of your suggested options highly unlikely.
just wondering.....
What is the true purpose of the sharigan and the Uchiha?
I mean.... they are powerful and all, but what for? Even the So6P left a 'how to' guide for them!
And what exactly is written on the uchiha tablet?
I mean.... we know that it was written by So6P.... but with what purposes?!
I can't help but think that there is a higher purpose to the Uchiha and their sharigan.
So far, all the sharigan and the Uchiha clan have done is ****ing the world up. But since So6P, aka, kishi's avator, left a guide to them personally, their role must be more than that(****ing the world up).
Why would someone as powerful and cunning as Tobi want to put the world into an eternal genjutsu when he could be thriving to rule over everyone and cause more and more war? He wants the world to be in genjutsu so there is no more war and people will live in peace forever..this is obvious to us all and it's also obvious Madara always wanted power and war. BUT do you think the Moon's Eye Plan is something Tobi thought up himself and is getting personal gain out of completing it? We know Tobi doesn't even care who he is, but only on his main goal of completing the plan by any means. It's like he is a programmed robot in a sense...which I as well as many others believe he could just be an experiment/fusion/clone of many great ninjas dna. So back to this question, why would Tobi want this?
We know Tobi is crazy and technically wants peace and war to end...but it seems to me that Tobi is either someone who was traumatized by war as a child or someone who contains the Will or Beliefs of someone who was traumatized. Who does this make you think of? Orochimaru and Nagato. I bet Tobi is clone/experiment created by Orochimaru and Madara. Orochimaru was alive when Nagato was a kid and Madara knew of Nagato straight out of the grave, so its likely they worked together at some point to create a clone of Madara to carry on the Rinnegan he unlocked and complete their plan. Tobi is just a shell of his former self and could not utilize the power of the Rinnegan, so just as Oro experienced pain as a child, Nagato experienced the same and was given Rinnegan by Tobi or Orochimaru after they had his parents killed. Tobi (who it would seem contains the will of Oro more than Madara) then bended Nagato to his will and created the 6 paths of pain to lead akatsuki and gather the tailed beasts. Once he had enough power from the tailed beasts he took the Rinnegan from Nagato. But we know Oro wanted to kill the orphans so perhaps Oro knew Nagato had the Rinnegan the whole time and wanted to kill them so he could take it. We also know from Madara that the "things aren't going according to plan" so I assume Oro had his own secret agenda if he really was working with Madara..If Tobi is the work of Oro, it would make sense that Tobi seemed nervous that the real Madara was revived probably because Madara is the only one who can stop him. We ALSO know Tobi was upset Nagato used the Outer Path Samsara "he said it was His to use" (at least i think) which leads me to believe Tobi wants to bring at least one person back to life...probably not Madara, but maybe Hashirama or Orochimaru. (Tobi probably isn't Oro because Tobi seemed very ignorant about Edo Tensei-unless he was bluffing) We could assume Oro wanted to learn every jutsu to ultimately to obtain the Rinnegan with one of his goals being to bring his parents back to life because Edo Tensei would just bring back a zombie... To further solidify that Madara and Oro MAY have been working together is how did Oro just happen to obtain Madaras dead body to upgrade it? We also know Danzou was working with Oro and that Danzou had Shisuis eye so anything is possible there. We also know Tobi was most likely the third mizukage, if not he killed the third and controlled the fourth mizukage. In any case, the main players in everything are Itachi, Oro, Danzou and Madara.
Hopefully somone can critique and expand on all these random points...almost all is obviously speculation and to get people thinking, but basically all I'm saying or agreeing with is that The Moons Eye Plan could be Orochimaru's plan or he changed it and that Oro and Zetsu have a big part behind the scenes in all of this and are likely directly connected to Tobi...unless Tobi really is Izuna or Kagame somehow. Sorry this kind of turned into a "Who is Tobi post?"

NORTH ROYALTON — Contrary to its fast start this season, the Medina volleyball team began slowly and sluggishly Tuesday in a Northeast Ohio Conference Valley Division match with North Royalton.
Despite the unseasonably warm temperatures outside and inside the gym, the Bees were anything but hot in losing to the Bears 25-18, 25-14, 25-21.
"We were very flat," Bees coach Connie Daum said. "You play like you practice, and we practiced like that yesterday. I kept hoping they would snap out of it. Ksenia (Klue) started hitting the ball and we got fired up in Game 3, but against a team like North Royalton, you can't wait that long.
"This wasn't the same team that played against Brunswick. There wasn't enough hype for us around this game, but one of our goals is to win conference. To do that, you have to beat teams like Royalton, which is a very good team. This team has the heart and the intensity, but it was just missing tonight."
Medina (8-3, 1-1) committed too many errors and quickly fell behind 7-2 in the opening game. Daum used an early timeout to urge her team to play with more intensity, but the Bees responded only in spurts over the first two games.
North Royalton (8-2, 1-1) capitalized on the errors and used an 8-1 run to close out Game 1.
With Game 2 tied 6-6, the Bears again surged ahead to win by a 10-point margin.
Medina seemed out of sync or one step behind much of the night, but the Bees made the final game interesting thanks to the energetic play of senior outside hitter Klue.
Klue found some spring in her step to post five of her team-high six kills in the final game, which featured 11 ties and a 20-20 score before the Bears pulled away.
Klue also led the team with 10 digs, while junior Ashley Pavlescak finished with 20 assists, seven digs, three blocks and four aces. Senior Erika Grumbach contributed nine digs.
"We are very hard-working, have a lot of heart and love to play this game because it is our passion," Grumbach said. "We need to get more intense, pumped up, get our heads in it right away. We need to be all-around more focused."
For the Bears, whose only losses this season have been to Solon and Norwalk, Holly Hetman recorded 33 assists, Allison Baird had 17 digs and Katie Baird tallied 13 kills.
"We were also a little sluggish tonight," coach Kristin Hubbell said. "We aren't very big this year, so we've got to be fast, and usually we are a lot faster than we were tonight. We are competitive, have a lot of drive and know how to win.
"We were frustrated after last week's five-game loss (to Solon) and in starting the conference off 0-1. I think our girls had a little motivation because of that."
North Royalton made it a sweep by winning the freshman (25-19, 25-19) and junior varsity (25-17, 25-16) contests.

Doug Hepburn Routines
Posted 15 November 2011 - 10:51 AM
Here i am writing to you a very simple and easy to understand training routine that will help you build strength in the most easiest way possible. There is no complex programming or annoying assistance exercises implemented in this routine. This routine focus on the four most strength rewarding exercises available: Squat, deadlift, bench press and overhead press. You rest usually 1-5 minutes between each single/triple depending on how you feel.
Program layout:
Monday/Thursday: Upper body (Bench press and overhead press)
Tuesday/Friday: Lower body (Squat and deadlift)
This is the basic layout for the program and as you can see you train four days a week and also you will work all body parts twice a week. The benefit with this is increased volume, increased strength and increased hypertrophy.
If you do not have the time to train four days a week you can do the same program as above two days a week. The drawdown of this is that it will take more time to add weight for you and you will only hit all bodyparts once a week. Which means less strength and less hypertrophy. But it's still a good program only if you do it twice a week, i do it twice a week sometimes when i am short of time during that week because of work or exams.
Start at 85-90% of your a rep max at each exercise, start by doing four singles your first workout, the add one single each workout until you are able to do ten singles for each exercise. When you have hit ten singles you just restart at four singles again the next workout, but this time you bump up the weight 2,5-5 kg (5-10 pounds).
Example below:
Squat 100 kg
4x1, 5x1, 6x1, 7x1, 8x1, 9x1, 10x1 - Now you can add 2,5-5 kg and start over at 4x1.
The beauty with this is that when you add weight, volume goes down so even if the weight is heavier the volume is more then halved which is like a built in deload week.
After a while on the singles routine you will start to peak out on all the exercises, you will find it harder and harder to add that single each time. Just continue to train hard and add one single until you start failing to do so. When you have failed to add a single despite trying for several workouts, are mentally tired or are going backwards in progression, don't panic! Because this is completely normal and have happened to myself several times. At this time you move to the deload phase.
Now that you have peaked on all the exercises it's time for a deload. The deload works the exact same way as the singles routine. Now you start by doing triples at 75-80% of your 1 rep max and the goal here is to let your nervous system replenish and work back up to your old singles weight. If you did 100 kg in the squat for ten singles (10x1) and peaked at that weight your goal is now to work up to 100 kg for ten triples (10x3).
If you feel the need to try out your new maxes, do so. Let's say your old one rep max was 110 kg in the squat and now you do 120 kg in the squat your goal is still to continue using triples until you can to 100 kg for ten triples. When you reach that goal, you start the singles routine again, but this time calculated 85-90% by your new one rep max which is 120 kg.
This is an very easy to understand program which i have used myself with great success. What i have learned since last time i ran the program is to use two exercises instead of three exercises during each session. Because three exercises during one session will get you extremely fatigued in the long run and will drain both time and mental energy from you.
If you want to do assistance work, you can throw in what you want on the end of each workout. I usually do some abs/calf exercises on the end of Fridays workout and some biceps and triceps at the end of Thursdays workout. But this is only if you are focusing on appearance/esthetics and not really necessary for the program.
If you cannot do deadlifts, just do rows instead. If you feel the deadlifts is too little volume for your back, throw in some rows at the end of the squat/deadlift workouts.
This is Doug Hepburn pressing 380 lbs (172,5kg):

Hepburn's Powerbuilding program (8x2->8x3)
This program consists of (approximately) monthly linear progression. There are two portions to the workout: power phase and pump phase.
- Power Phase: you pick a weight (80% 1RM, usually) and the first day do 8x2. Next time, you do 7x2 + 1x3. Then 6x2 + 2x3, and so on, until you reach 8x3. At this point, you increase the weight and repeat, indefinitely.
- Pump Phase: after the entire power phase of the workout is complete, drop ~20% from the power phase weight, and do 3x6 with the same lift performed in the power phase. The next workout, do 2x6 + 1x7. Then 1x6 + 2x7, etc., until you reach 3x8. Then increase the weight and repeat.
This program is designed as a full body workout each session.
- Day 1: Bench Press (or, horizontal upper body push), Chin/pull-ups (vertical upper body pull), Squat (lower body push) 8x2->3; 3x6->8
- Day 2: Overhead Press (vertical upper body press), Rows (horizontal upper body pull), Deadlift (lower body pull) 8x2->3; 3x6->8
There's a 4-day version and a 2-day version.
- 4 day version:
- Monday: day 1
- Tuesday: day 2
- Wednesday: "off"
- Thursday: day 1 with progression
- Friday: day 2 with progression
- 2 day version:
- Monday: day 1
- Thursday: day 2
- Next Monday: day 1 with progression
Other Notes: I'm running this program on a deficit, so I haven't seen noticable increases in strength, but I haven't seen non-injury-related decreases in strength, either.
With supersetting, I get through an 8x3 day (plus pump sets) in about 1.25-1.5 hours.

Maslow's "Hepburn" Program
Monday: Deadlift (4x1 @80%1RM, 2x3 @80% of singles weight ), Bench (4x1
@80%1RM, 2x3 @80% of singles weight ), Barbell Row (3x5)
Tuesday: Squat (4x1 @80%1RM, 2x3 @80% of singles weight ), Overhead Press
(4x1 @80%1RM, 2x3 @80% of singles weight ), either curls/snatch/pullups
(3xFail etc.)
Thursday: Squat (5x1 @80%1RM, 3x3 @80% of singles weight ), Bench (5x1
@80%1RM, 3x3 @80% of singles weight ), Barbell Row (3x5)
Friday: Off
Saturday--Power Clean (4x1 @80%1RM, 2x3 @80% of singles weight), Overhead
Press(5x1 @80%1RM, 3x3 @80% of singles weight), either curl/Pullup/Snatch
(3xFail, etc.)
For the single (power) sets start with 4x1 and increase up to 10x1, then add 5 lbs and repeat; for the tripple (pump) sets start with 2x3 increase up to 5x3, then add 5 lbs and repeat. Squat, press and bench weights will progress faster than the others since they're done more often. At the beginning it may be advisable to add more weight to a lift if it seems to easy, but it's important to use a lot of caution with that. If single attempts are missed, cut out the singles until progress is achieved on the pump sets, then reincoroprate the singles. Over time the weight used in the pump sets will approach the weight used on the power sets. Once the weight amounts are very close--so close that it's not really possible to do--you can take a week off and then reset the pump sets back to 80% of the power sets. You can run it a few times and when desired switch to doing doubles for the power sets. The main thing about Hepburn's method is it is designed to get very close to what's physically possible without overtraining. That's the key point that Boola mentioned as far as not being tempted to do extra sets. This program takes a lot of time (about 8 hours/week in the gym) and is not for the faint hearted.
I don't know how to do snatches so I do curls one day and chin ups/pull ups the other.
The pump sets are the real key to progress. The power sets compell perfect technique, increase CNS efficiency and teach you to not fear going heavy, but the pump sets are what drive the muscle growth.

Squat 3/3/3 -> 5/5/5
Bench 3/3/3 -> 5/5/5
Row 3/3/3 -> 5/5/5
Deadlift 3 -> 5
Press 3/3/3 -> 5/5/5
Weighted Chin 3/3/3 -> 5/5/5
Workouts rotated 3 days a week just like stronglifts. I add one rep to the earliest set every workout until I hit 5/5/5. When I reach 5/5/5, I up the weight 5-10 pounds and start over. The volume is fairly low and there's a lot of room for recovery so I'm hoping I ride this routine to the sacred 300/400/500 ground

Choose a suitable weight ~85-90% of 1RM = X kg
3x5@80% of X
1x6 2x5@80% of X
2x6 1x5@80% of X
3x6@80% of X
1x7 2x6@80% of X
Workout 1: Squat+Bench Press
Workout 2: Deadlift+Pull up
Simply alternate - I got 3-4 workouts in a week just going by feel.
Minimal assistance work.
I did neglect the OHP - I am sure you could arrange things differently to include it.

How long were you able to run it without resetting or taking a week off?
That seems like a lot of deadlifting. Do you really go like: Monday-squat, Wednesday-Deadlift, Friday-Squat, Sunday-Deadlift, Tuesday-Squat, Thursday-Deadlift, etc.? Or do you do two squat days for every deadlift day?

There are separate sheets for 2010, 2011 and now 2012. Note: some of the sheets have not been updated for a LONG time.
For the Hepburn stuff (2011):
1st June->8th July
20th July->23rd August
I did mess around with the rep numbers quite a bit - the above shceme is what I have settled on if you like.

The spreadsheet is here: .xlsx version | .xls version | google docs
Now for the explanation. What I've done is take Hepburn's 4x1 and 4x3 routines and merged them together. I felt that doing one or the other would either have the intensity but not the volume I desire, or vice versa. There will be two distinct training days, described below, and each day there will be a power phase and a pump phase. Because I wanted a monthly increase in weight, I have a slightly accelerated rate of rep increases. So instead of jumping from 4x1 to 5x1 between sessions, I am jumping from 4x1 to 6x1 on singles days (then 8x1 and finally 10x1 -- and of course 4x3 to 6x3 to 8x3 to 10x3 for triples progression).
The pump phase on singles day will transition from 3x3 to 3x5 to keep intensity up, and the pump phase on triples day will transition from 3x6 to 3x8 for additional volume. In the first cycle, singles day will begin at 90% of max for power phase, and 70% for pump phase; triples day will be 80% and 60%. Each cycle will have a 5% increase in weight.
The exceptions to the rep scheme are the back movements -- they will only be done with the triples day volume.
In deciding the movements in each training session, I stuck with Hepburn's principles of having an upper body vertical pull paired with an upper body horizontal press and a lower body movement. The other session is a vertical upper body press and a horizontal upper body pull, with an opposing leg movement. My days are OHP, barbell rows and squats, and bench, pull-downs and deadlifts. Any lifts will do, though. Incline/decline bench, other rows, shrugs, front squats, RDLs, anything. Just find a balance.
Intensity is placed earlier in the week, because I personally find it easier to recover from. Volume later in the week to get muscles warmed and blood flowing, but still train hard. Press is placed earlier in the week because it will have less effect on bench than the reverse. Squats before deads because I like them better. Rows and pull-downs were ordered based on the pressing movement they should be paired with.
In addition to this Hepburn inspired training, which will take place 4 times per week after work, I will be training the Olympic lifts 5 days a week at lunch time. I will have to adjust, but I think I can manage the workload. I will be keeping the Olympic work light on most days, just high rep to work on form and get proficient in the lifts. The blood flow will help in recovery, I'm hoping.
Here is my scheduled first three weeks. Weights are in lbs.

I respect Hepburn (who wouldn't) but damn, that seems like a lot of work even though I like the idea of progression by slowly ramped up volume but these must be, what?, 2 hour workouts, yeah?
Any one get to the 10x3 stage with 3 heavy compound movements, yet? How'd it go?

Posted 19 April 2012 - 08:04 PM
I should note, for the template/spreadsheet that I posted above, please be conservative on your training maxes entered into the spreadsheet for calculation. It will be very difficult otherwise.
I am putting together another modified routine based on the above, but volume will be lower.

I REALLY believed in the program, ate a ton, worked as hard as I could, and slept. (which, as we all know, will give you results with almost any routine)
I have switched to a lower poundage, more volume, Squat, Press, Pull fullbody routine....but I am thinking of modifying the Hepburn (a little more assistance work) and going back to it. Who knows...I will give the new routine at least a month before I decide anything.

Time to wake this thread!
I am currently doing the extended russian power rutine and have three weeks left. After that I will do Hepburn as follows
Bench (power and pump)
Press (Power and pump)
Curl (power and pump)
Squat (power and pump)
Deadlift (power and pump)
Chins (minimum 50 reps
Bench (power and pump)

First of all, do you guys prefer this "upper/lower" layout, or do you prefer for example squat/bench on monday and dead/press on tuesday and so on?
I´ve also been trying to understan whitch of the program A or B you should start wirh? The A seeams like more volume compared to the B whitch is more intensity oriented with less volume?

(Ivanhoe Newswire) – A multicenter, randomized, controlled trial involving patients 45 years or older with a meniscal tear and evidence of knee osteoarthritis randomly assigned 351 patients to surgery and postoperative physical therapy or to a standard physical-therapy regimen; then, they evaluated patients at six and 12 months in order to see if arthroscopic partial meniscectomy has better functional outcomes than non-operative therapy.
The researchers found that at six months, 51 patients who were assigned to physical therapy alone (30%) had surgery and nine patients assigned to surgery (6%) did not have surgery. The results after 12 months were similar to those at six months.

Match Notes | Live Stats | Video
GREENVILLE, N.C. – The East Carolina volleyball team will play host to Conference USA rival UAB on Sunday, Oct. 21, at 1 p.m. at Minges Coliseum.
|East Carolina
Blazers Top Pirates In Three
UAB 3, East Carolina 0
ECU and UAB will meet for the 20th time in program history and the Blazers lead the all-time series with a 14-5 record. The last time the two squads met, UAB swept East Carolina in Greenville on Nov. 18, 2011. The Pirates have not defeated the Blazers since 2006 when the Pirates held off UAB in four sets.
The Pirates are coming off of a 3-1 loss against Memphis on Friday night in which junior Nicole Willis slammed 20 kills and posted 12 digs to record her team-leading ninth double-double of the year.
East Carolina is 1-19 overall and 0-9 in Conference USA action and looking to get its first conference win of the season. UAB is currently on a seven-match winning streak and holds a 14-11 overall mark and a 6-3 conference record.
Willis has been a consistent part of the Pirates' offense this season as she leads the squad with 218 kills on the year. Her 3.63 kills per set rank her eighth in the conference, and she has tallied 172 digs, 30 total blocks and 13 service aces for the Pirates. Shelby Beasley continues to play solid defense for ECU. The junior libero leads the team in digs with 310 and her 4.25 digs per set are good for fifth in the conference. Sophomore Zarah Cecich has emerged as the Pirates' setter late in the season and has amassed 452 assists to average 7.17 assists per set. Senior Kelly Derby is East Carolina's leader in blocks with 74 and her 1.01 blocks per set put her sixth in the conference rankings.

Flash is usually a no-no in runway shots, as mentioned above. If you are doing studio type shots, the use the SB900. The built-in popup is not something you want to use. It cannot take the abuse. If it is not runway stuff you are going to shoot, look at location shooting and use the SB900 as a fill.

MILWAUKEE, Wis. – Coming off a big win against Ball State Saturday afternoon, the Northern Illinois men's tennis team fell to Marquette in a very close 4-3 match to fall 18-6 in 2012. "It was a tough loss today," said Head Coach Patrick Fisher. "We just dug ourselves a hole when we lost the doubles point and we just can't keep doing that if we want to win a championship this season. When we win doubles it really helps us out a lot and we just can't put that kind of pressure on ourselves to win our matches in singles alone." Only the doubles pair of Maksym Bartiuk and Roman Turtygin that emerged victorious in the match as they defeated Logon Collins and Cameron Tehran, 8-7. Axel Lagerlof was a victor at No. 3 for the Huskies with his straight-set 6-4, 6-2 score, while Bartiuk again won in singles with a grinding score of 6-2, 2-6, 6-3. NIU's final point of the match was at No. 5 with Frederic Cadieux defeating Tehrani, 7-6, 1-6, 1-0. Northern Illinois will play a pair of MAC matches next weekend as it hosts Toledo and Buffalo on April 15 and 15, respectively. NIU is 2-0 in Mid-American Conference play this season. MARQUETTE 4, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 3 Milwaukee, Wis. DOUBLES: 1. Schwerin/Mamalat (MU) def. Lagerlof/Amir (NIU) 8-32. Turtygin/Bartiuk (NIU) def. Collins/Tehrani (MU) 8-73. Teofanovic/Kakar (MU) def.

Member of the reality-based community of progressive (not anonymous) Massachusetts blogs
The "in-state tuition" issue for undocumented residents is back on the table.
According to yesterday's Boston Globe, 'the [Massachusetts] Board of Higher Education gave its stamp of approval Thursday to a document that looks favorably on legislation to let illegal immigrant students pay in-state tuition at state colleges."
Last January, Massachusetts lawmakers defeated a measure that would have allowed undocumented residents of our state to pay the same tuition rate as other residents. (more…)
If you have not yet read today's Lowell Sun's editorial on the raid on undocumented immigrants in New Bedford this week, please do so.
In the past, I have disagreed with the Sun's editorial position on many issues but they should be commended for reminding Lowell that the "complicated problem of illegal immigration" has a face—"hundreds of tear-stained, panic-striken" women in this case.
But more importantly, they are advancing a rational solution by stating that this "incident highlights the critical need for reform of our fractured immigration system" and they agree with Senator Ted Kennedy's approach to reform. The paper is advocating that "a system be created that will put illegal immigrants who are otherwise lawful residents on the path to legal status." (more…)
What else do you call it when a candidate uses robocalls and other media to attack an opponent on an issue on which he's not really strongly against?
David lays it out for us: despite Gabrieli's supposed stance against the immigrant tuition bill which failed this past year, and his use of that issue to attack Patrick and Reilly, who are for it, he apparently isn't really against it. David quotes the Globe:
Just a month ago, on Aug. 15, Chris Gabrieli told Globe editors he did not feel strongly about the issue of giving favorable in-state tuitions to illegal immigrants seeking to attend UMass and other public colleges. While he wouldn't propose it, Gabrieli said, "I never say I'm actually against it." If the Legislature approved it, he added, "I have not said I'd veto it."
Okay…but that doesn't sound like the Gabrieli campaign when they sent out this robocall. But I love this part:
His rationale: "I wish those kids would get the education, and I do feel they're caught in between." But there is a political problem for Democrats, he added. "Putting that out on our forehead is some kind of suicide impulse" suggesting that "our priority is to fund a group of kids whose parents are here illegally."
So, Chris, you'd rather pander to the public, ignoring how you really feel, than stand up for your principles, in order to win? Sounds an awful lot like Kerry, to me. And he lost what should have been a cakewalk election. (Sure, there was fraud, but the election had to be really close for the fraud to work.)
I've said before that Gabrieli should be ashamed for cynically using a hot-button issue in order to win votes, especially since he bills himself the "education" candidate. Now I think he should be doubly ashamed for pandering to the voters on an issue while not telling the truth about his own stance on it.
Some part of me, by the way, wonders if this fake "stand" Gabrieli took against the immigrant tuition bill was one of the factors in his favor with the Sun editorial board. Just, you know, wonderin'.
There are moments in your political life when you hit yourself in the forehead and say, "d'oh! We've all been punked." It took my husband to point it out to me, which is why I married him - he's an incredibly smart man and independent thinker.
Last night I drove in to take the T to Boston to meet Chris after work. We had a lovely date night. On the red line home, the conversation (as it nearly always does) turns political. The topic? What everyone is talking about, of course. The current immigration debate.
The car was relatively full and even though we were talking privately, a man across the aisle overheard us and butted in. His rant was as loud and clear as only a hot-button issue could provoke. Something about how white people can't immigrate into Mexico and get a job so why should they come here or some junk. I really tuned him out quick - not because he disagreed with me, but because he sort of scared me with his belligerence.
For a few days now, Chris has been increasingly annoyed with the immigration debate. He calls it the latest Republican ploy we Democrats have all fallen for, even on liberal talk radio and the blogs (including mine). He listens to Ed Schultz and thinks, stop doing their dirty work. Because he came to realize what we all should have seen immediately: with their hopes of retaining Congressional power falling with Bush's sagging poll numbers, the Republicans have come up with their cult-base-rallying-cry for 2006: 'dem damn immigrants. Immigrants are the new gay marriage.
The man on the red line demonstrated perfectly how well this works as a divisive issue for the Republicans.
Chris asks, what, did we suddenly wake up this week and realize there was an immigration crisis? That suddenly there's 11 million illegals and now they are the main number one problem in America? That conservatives in states across the nation including New England (the furthest away from the Mexico border) suddenly discovered that illegal immigrants were taking food from their family's mouths? No. The Republicans, having played out many of their other bogymen, now need someone else to point the finger at so their hardline base can keep blaming people other than their own leadership for their stagnant wages, "moral decay," and bad governance. Defense of Marriage Acts have already been passed in many states, and so therefore how are they going to get their raving voters to the polls?
For a while, I thought it was Hollywood and the culture wars that they wanted to use, with all the hubbub about fines and new regulations on TV and radio. But it's a bad play, because just as many, or more, "values voters" enjoy Desperate Housewives. In the end, entertainment trumps moralistic preachiness after all.
So immigrants it is, then. Dominate the news with that "sudden crisis"; never mind that another DeLay aid copped a plea of guilty in the Abramoff scandal. Ignore that Abramoff himself got 6 years for his plea and it's said he's singing like a bird. Forget that the infamous Debt Clock in Times Square is going to be in need of another digit, it's going up faster than anyone expected. Or that former FISA judges indicated that Bush's wiretapping program is unconstitutional. Lots of big things happened this week, but all the talking heads talk about is immigration. Lou Dobbs must be in heaven.
The Republicans play their base like a master concert pianist. They lead the debate, and us, by the nose, and panting, we follow. We are led right into the trap they've set for us.
I've begun reading Mark Crispin Miller's Fooled Again: How the Right Stole the 2004 Election & Why They'll Steal the Next One Too (Unless We Stop Them). Yes, the title seems alarmist and reactionary, but the evidence cited in just the first chapter is chilling. Maybe there isn't some grand conspiracy of the Right to steal elections; but the use of a riled-up fanatical base is key to the many election irregularities that went on in Ohio and many other states. (The other key was lots of money.)
When people say "this is like red meat to their base," it's taken as a mild form of pandering by politicians to make their voters happy. When I picture this phrase now, I see drooling, growling hounds fighting and tearing into the meat like feral wolves. Then showing up at the polls with blood dripping from their mouths.
Please, please, let's stop doing the Republicans job for them. On liberal talk radio, in Congress, on blogs. Let's talk about the issues voters really should be angry and emotional about - not the concocted specter the Republicans are using as their most vicious tool.
The University of Massachusetts Lowell has set up a $1 million endowment fund in the name of F. Bradford Morse to promote international affairs, global understanding and peace. The majority of those living in Greater Lowell today may not have heard of this man.
He was born in Lowell in the early 20s and went to college and law school after serving in the army in World War II. He died in 1994 after a distinguished career as a public servant.
He served as Director of the U.N. Development Program; he was Deputy Administrator of Veterans Affairs; he was Congressman from the 5th Middlesex District and he was a former Lowell City Councilman. Lowell should be extremely proud of this man.
But it is what he did in 1965 for a family of (documented) immigrants living in Lowell that stands out for me. The family had been in this country for a little bit more than a year and their grandmother had arrived with a tourist visa to spend some time with them. They did not have a single political connection but Morse who heard of the family's situation through a social worker who assisted immigrants, introduced a bill to grant this grandmother a permanent visa which Congress approved.
This gesture was done occasionally by all House members to help out their constituency. But I wonder how much grief a congressman would receive these days from the anti-immigration element in this country if he stepped up and did the right thing?

Children and water play stations combine to create magical summer days for kids. Knoxville has just announced that the water play fountains are open for 2014. They promise to do their best to make the fountains available daily from 10:00 am - 9:00 pm. Outages and maintenance alerts can be found on the City of Knoxville website.
What child doesn't love to scoot and twist between shooting jets of water? The spray can be too much for kids (and a few adults) to resist. Looking for summer fun in Knoxville?
Locations for the four water play fountains are:
• Market Square Mall
• Krutch Park
• Volunteer Landing at Neyland Drive
• World's Fair Park
Seating at the water play fountains can be limited. Visitors may be well advised to bring lawn chairs or blankets to spread on the ground. Trash receptacles are available near the fountains. It is always a good idea to exercise common sense precautions when it comes to summer heat.

The Finney County Commission has approved incentives to bring a Florida-based animal science technology company to relocate to the Garden City area.
Finney County authorities say TekVet Technologies Co. would
bring 60 new high-paying jobs to the area in its first year.
The Garden City Telegram reports that TekVet has been
negotiating with economic officials since late summer about
relocating its livestock health monitoring company to an industrial
site at Garden City Regional Airport. It's also considering two
other out-of-state locations.
Garden City commissioners on Tuesday unanimously approved an
incentive package that includes tax exemptions and cash grants.
The agreement includes Garden City buying two buildings, a
warehouse and office building, and allow the company to use them at
no cost for the first 10 years.

AR Rahman For The New Lekar Hum Deewana Dil
by http://www.bollywoodlife.com
Armaan Jain – cousin of Ranbir Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor – is all set to make his Bollywood debut with Lekar Hum Deewana Din, which will be directed by Imtiaz Ali's brother Arif Ali.
AR Rahman is going to do a song called Khaleefa for the film which the makers are most impressed with. A contemporary upbeat number with a youthful feel to it, 'Khaleefa'features the lead pair of Armaan Jain and Deeksha Seth. Apparently, Dinesh was so impressed with the song that it was an instant decision to play it right through the first look promo of the film, which has just been unveiled.
We are looking forward to the makers releasing the full song soon.

A pensioner who complained of hearing voices in his head stabbed his wife of more than 50 years to death, before using the same knife to kill himself.
An inquest has heard James Stokoe, 79, had repeatedly spoken about harming his wife May, also 79, in the weeks leading up to their deaths.
The couple, who had been married for 56 years, reportedly had a "turbulent, distant and unloving relationship and would go for a long period of time without speaking to each other".
Police said the pair were discovered on the bed in the rear bedroom of their Sunderland home with a knife next to Mr Stokoe.
Detective Chief Inspector Christina Barrett, of Northumbria Police, said following an investigation it appeared that Mr Stokoe, a retired blacksmith, had attempted to kill himself in the bedroom.
But having been disturbed by his wife, a former dinner lady, he attacked her, before going downstairs and out to the shed to sharpen the knife.
During this time Ms Barrett said Mrs Stokoe had barricaded herself into the bedroom but he returned, broke through the door and killed her before killing himself, with both dying from wounds to the neck.
The inquest at Sunderland Civic Centre heard that following a diagnosis of cancer and a failed suicide attempt a few months before, Mr Stokoe had begun to receive visits from mental health nurses and had talked about the thoughts he was having.
Ms Barrett said: "James Stokoe described things like gremlins in his head telling him to do bad things, like causing his wife harm."
Before the deaths in May last year, the court also heard that some members of the family had started to hide items such as knives in the house from Mr Stokoe.
Sue Wilmott, a mental health nurse, had visited Mr Stokoe a number of times before the attack and said even though he had spoken of harming his wife, he had always qualified it with the assertion he would "never harm her for the world".
But she also said he had stopped taking an anti-psychotic drug that he had been prescribed.
Dr Paul Danson, a consultant psychiatrist, said before the incident Mr Stokoe had spoken of how the anxiety and intrusive thoughts he had been having had gone, and therefore his visits were changed from daily to twice weekly.
He said that he had concerns, but they were not critical, and that he did offer Mr Stokoe the chance to come into hospital but he declined.
"It was my opinion that he did not fulfil the criteria for detention," he said.
The court heard that Dr Danson actually tried to contact Mr Stokoe on the day he and his wife died, but received no answer on the phone.

"They played pretty scrappy," Head Coach Kristy Kleespies said. "I was happy with it."
The second quarter saw the Bruins outscored 5-6, but their first quarter lead was enough that they were never in any trouble.
In the third and fourth quarters the Bruins doubled the efforts of their opponents and put 11 points — to the Raiders' 5 — on the scoreboard in the third and 8 — to the Raiders' 4 — in the fourth to end the game with twice as many points as the competition.
Anna Serna led the Lady Bruins with 16 points and, according to Kleespies, more steals than you can shake a stick at.
"She is very unselfish on the floor," Kleespies said. "She can score at will and she had a ton of steals. It was good."
Kaylee Strain had 7 points while Jenna Martini and Chloe McCrae each contributed 4. Jensyn Glazebrook rounded out the Bruins scoring with 3.
"It was a good game," Serna said. "My teammates played the best they've played all season."
Eighth graders eke out 30-26 victory over Raiders
The eighth-grade girls basketball team took an early 12-4 lead but two low-scoring quarters allowed the Raiders of Redwood to claw their way back into the game and take it down to the final seconds of the game.
The Lady Bruins were outscored by 6 (7-13) in the second quarter to go into halftime with just a two-point lead, 19-17.
They kept it knotted in the third quarter with a 7-7 score, but were able to score two more than the Raiders in the fourth quarter to win the game by four, 30-26.
Post Shawntisha Bailey and guard Abby Farmer tied for most team points with 11 each. Kayla Watson put 4 points of her own in from the forward position while Mikaya Bruce had 3 and Barrieanne Fallert had 1 to round out the Bruins scoring.
"It was a win," Head Coach Lori Cooper said. "Still can't seem to find the basket on shots but we came out on top tonight."
For Farmer, it came down to how the Lady Bruins played in the end.
"I'm proud of our team for taking control of the ball and keeping control," she said. "We made good choices at the end of the game which really helped."

On Thursday, March 6, SR2 Motorsports announced that Ryan Ellis has been signed to their 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series, (NNS) program. Ellis will be serving as the Team's resident driver, doing testing and race driving for SR2 owner Jason Sciavicco. His first 2014 event for SR2 will be this weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in the the team's #24 Toyota Camry, sponsored by Superlite Cars, a Michigan-based manufacturer of exotic street and race cars. The full extent of Ellis' program will depend on their ongoing sponsorship searches, but plans are in place for a number of 2014 races.
Ellis ran five NNS races with SR2 in 2013, and quickly became a favorite of fans and crew members alike. With today's announcement comes the certainty that he'll be racing much more this year, as the 24 year old sets out for what will be his most ambitious year ever in NASCAR.
"I'm happy to be back racing with SR2 and Toyota this year," explained Ellis. "It's really what I had hoped for all last off-season. Jason is a great guy and I am truly honored that he has brought me back and into this expanded role on his team."
Ellis will likely be assigned driving duties in both the SR2 Motorsports #24 and #00 Toyota Camry's over the course of the season, as the Team looks to build on the last several years of experience in the NASCAR Nationwide Series.
"We are really excited to have Ryan as a part of our program this year. He showed a tremendous amount of talent last year and is a very likeable young man who is committed to this sport. We have big plans going forward, and Ryan is now positioned to be a major part of them," Sciavicco added.
Ryan's 2014 program actually began in February at Daytona Beach International Speedway in Jim Rosenblum's FDNY #28 Chevy Silverado, which Ellis drove from a 34th starting position to a solid 18th place finish in the season-opening NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event. He'll continue driving for the part-time FDNY Truck program throughout 2014, with 3 more races in the works.
It was in the NASCAR Nationwide series where the Virginian first impressed many NASCAR observers last season. Ellis is a veteran of Grand AM professional road racing, where he was 2011 CTSCC ST Rookie of the Year and went on to finish 3rd in the series Championship. He is also the factory race driver for Superlite Cars of Frasier, MI, where he pilots 700 horsepower Prototypes in National competition.
Ellis and the rest of the NASCAR Nationwide Series take to the track at the 1.5-mile Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Boyd Gaming 300 on Saturday, March 8, and ESPN2 will have a live telecast with announcer Allen Bestwick as well as analysts Dale Jarrett and Andy Petree. The broadcast will also feature pit reporters Dave Burns, Jamie Little, and Dr. Jerry Punch. NASCAR Countdown airs at 4 p.m. ET while the green flag will fly at 4:31 p.m. The race telecast will air on ESPN Deportes at 4 a.m. on Sunday, March 9.

Cycle Touring
EcoRoamer: a touring trailer takes the load off the bike for bicycle camping (Photo: dionhinchcliffe on flickr)
Often one-wheeled in design, touring trailers put the emphasis on lightweight, all-weather (waterproof) materials.
If a touring trailer is attached to the back of the bike, there is probably also a GPS unit attached to the handlebars up front.
Single-wheel Trailers
These type of trailers are almost exclusively used for touring, providing greater comfort and stability on rough, unpaved roads and track.

2-wheel Trailers
Two-wheeled trailers resemble cargo trailers but are tuned to heavy-duty touring including additional carrying racks, weatherproofing and shock absorbers on some models.

The Midget Solo Bushtrekka is a bicycle camper including a pop-up tent and storage space made to order in Australia. The elevated construction keeps you off any cold, damp ground. The Bushtrekka was launched in mid-2008 in North America as is available online through various sources although the manufacturer's website is down as of summer 2012.

Bike Camper Trailers
Perhaps it is an artist's desire to escape and retreat easily and quietly that several bike campers have been designed and built by artists.

Wild West: Gunter Lorenz' DIY chuckwagon-style trailer for bicycle camping (Photo: w44.de)
An avid touring cyclist, Guenther Lorenz of Germany, developed a chuckwagon pulled by a bicycle that comfortably sleeps one person. Soonafter, this inspired Andre Mantz, also in Germany, to build his own fold-down chuckwagon with changes to reduce overal weight. Both parties used their chuckwagons extensively during extended bicycle tours through neighbouring regions and around the country.

Rolfing® is a system of soft tissue manipulation and movement
education that organizes the whole body in gravity. Rolfing affects
the body's posture and structure by manipulating the myofascial
system (connective tissue). Research has demonstrated that Rolfing
creates more efficient muscle use, allows the body to conserve
energy, and creates more economical and refined patterns of movement.
Rolfing has also been shown to significantly reduce chronic stress,
reduce spinal curvature in subjects with lordosis (sway back),
and enhance neurological functioning.
seek Rolfing as a way to reduce pain and chronic stress, generally
resulting from physical and emotional traumas.
Rolfing is used by many professional athletes, dancers
and entertainers to improve their performance. Some manufacturing
companies have employed Rolfing to decrease workers' compensation
costs due to repetitive stress injuries. And, based on
the mind/body connection, many counselors and therapists
incorporating Rolfing in the therapeutic approach. Greater
physical support and flexibility ultimately influence emotions
and energy levels.
Rolfing® structural integration is named after its creator,
Dr. Ida P. Rolf. Dr. Rolf received her Ph.D. in biochemistry
from Columbia University in 1920 and furthered her knowledge
of the body through her scientific work in organic chemistry
at the Rockefeller Institute. Her extensive search for solutions
to family health problems led her to examine many systems that
studied the effect of structure on function, including yoga,
osteopathy and chiropractic medicine. Dr. Rolf combined her
research with her scientific knowledge to stimulate a deeper
appreciation of the body's structural order, resulting
in the theory and practice of Rolfing. There
are more than 1,000 Certified Rolfers in 27 different countries.
Rolf Institute is located in Boulder, Colorado, with offices
in Germany and Brazil.

If you're a fan of any kind of speculative fiction and live near Altoona, Pennsylvania, Sci-Fi Valley Con should be part of your plans this weekend (June 27-29). See vehicles from movies such as Jurassic Park and Back to the Future. Take your selfie with the Stargate or TARDIS. With over 140 exhibitors on the upper and lower floor of the Jaffa Shrine, panels going on all weekend and other special events, it might be challenging to figure out where to start
The Gearbox Union would like to offer their "Mega Table" L5-L7 on the lower floor of the Jaffa Shrine as the perfect place to begin. Why? Because they have a quest for you, a ConQuest.
For a $5 donation to the Child's Play Charity, you'll receive five raffle tickets for the fabulous prizes available along with a 'quest log' card. On the card is a list of other participating tables at the convention, each of which will reward you for visiting their table and completing their task. For each quest completed, upon returning to our table you'll receive one additional raffle ticket to win even more prizes!
Your quest, should you choose to accept it, may be to answer a question, say a secret word, or tell a joke. (Some of them are very creative.) Not only will this encourage you to meet some of the vendors who donated prizes, but it will also be fun. Best of all, the money goes to the Child's Play charity, a group dedicated to brightening the lives of children in over 70 hospitals worldwide. Last year, the GBU raised about $350 for the charity, and they hope to blow that number out of the water this year. With your help, they can!
Once you have your ConQuest card, be sure to stop by The Geek Girl Project's table (right behind the GBU at K7) and say hi.
Sci-Fi Valley Con hours: Friday, 2 pm. – 9 pm, Saturday 10am. – 8 pm, Sunday 10 am. – 5 pm.
A three-day pass is only $20.

Four different goalscorers helped Reading United earn a 4-2 win over the Baltimore Bohemians at Paul Angelo Russo Stadium on Wednesday.
After severe weather in the area delayed kickoff by more than two hours, the teams were finally able to get out on the pitch, and it would be the hosts who would threaten the goal first. On ten minutes, Austin Martz delivered a shot from the edge of the box, but directed it straight at Reading keeper Alexander Bono. Eight minutes later, Mamadou Kansaye's shot from 18 yards was bobbled by Bono, but he was able to pounce on the rebound.
Reading got on the board first after 25 minutes. A cross from the far post by Brett Campbell flew across the six-yard box and found Graham Smith, who tapped the shot home past a stranded Andrew Harris.
The game would remain 1-0 in Reading's favor until the 66th minute, when Baltimore was awarded a penalty. Mamadou Kansaye opened his goal account for the season by slotting the spot kick past Bono's right side.
Six minutes after the equalizer, Reading regained the advantage. A give-and-go breakaway saw Campbell feed Ignacio Maganto, who swooped around Harris and easily slid the ball into the yawning net for a 2-1 lead. Less than a minute later, the visitors would add a third, as Campbell scored this time around. His shot snuck past Harris' lower right corner, hitting the back frame of the goal before popping back into play. There was momentary confusion on the field, but the goal was legitimate, and Reading had their two-goal lead.
Baltimore scored a late consolation goal in the penultimate minute, as a free kick delivered into the box pinballed between multiple players before reaching Marquez Fernandez, who tapped the ball towards the goal, where it barely crossed the line before Bono could reach it.
The visitors tacked on one more of their own seconds before the 90th minute, with Campbell picking up his third assist on a goal from Andrew Morales.
Baltimore (4-5-2) starts their last road swing of the 2014 PDL campaign next Wednesday, as they take on the Northern Virginia Royals.
Goals: REA – Graham Smith (25'), Ignacio Maganto (72'), Brett Campbell (73'), Andrew Morales (90'); BAL – Mamadou Kansaye (66' - penalty), Marquez Fernandez (89')
Yellow Cards: REA – Owen Griffith (11'), Guillermo Delgado (75')
Shots: REA – 12, BAL – 15
Saves: REA – 4, BAL – 2
Fouls: REA– 13, BAL – 13
Offsides: REA – 1, BAL – 0
Corners: REA– 3, BAL – 7

Carl Sims
Without question, Carl Sims has brought his career full circle throughout the years. In his early years, he toured continuously with Otis Redding and The BarKays. But his touring was cut short with the untimely death of Otis and three of the five members of the BarKays in a plane crash on December 10, 1967. Sims and James Alexander (one of The BarKays) flew a commercial flight carrying the musical equipment to one of the shows while Redding and The BarKays took a private flight. Sims soon returned to Memphis to find solace in Denise LaSalle. They began a four-year tour together until LaSalle convinced Sims to go on tour solo. Since then, the rough voiced artist has enjoyed tremendous success and a huge fan following.

Neil Young and Crosby, Stills & Nash fans can check out a free audio preview of the group performing Young's 1970 single "Only Love Can Break Your Heart". The legendary Canuck's singer-songwriter's After the Gold Rush album is one of 40 tracks set for release on the upcoming CSNY 74 live box set.
Posted on June 30 via RollingStone.com, the two-time Grammy winner's very first solo top 40 single release is perfectly suited to the CSNY's lush harmony work. Though released by Young as a solo single in September of 1970, Young first debuted the song live in May of 1970 during a concert with CSNY, and the song became a staple of their 1974 tour. The ballad has other connections to the '70s supergroup as Young reportedly wrote the song for CSNY bandmate Graham Nash after the ex-Hollies star split from Canadian folk-rock icon Joni Mitchell.
The live set is made up of songs culled from their historic 1974 reunion tour and will hit shelves on July 8, 2014. CSNY 74 will be available in a variety of formats, including a 3 CD/DVD set, a Pure Audio Blu-Ray, and a 16-track single CD. Bonus material includes a 188-page booklet, and there will also be a limited edition set of 1,000 copies featuring a coffee table-sized book and six 180-gram 12" vinyl records. Fans can check out can pre-order the album at CSNY.com.
CSN reunited with Young in 2013 for the first time since the CSNY's 2008 "Living With War Tour" to perform at Young's annual Bridge School Benefit. CSN hit the road in March 2014 for a soldout U.S. tour leg in support of their upcoming Live 1974 release. On the heels of the tour's huge success, CSN booked a second U.S. leg, which kicks off July 2 in Bethlehem, Pa. at Sands Bethlehem Event Center, and wraps up with a pair of shows on Oct. 3-4 in Los Angeles at the Greek Theatre.
Young recently released a new studio album titled A Letter Home, which contains low-fi acoustic renditions of classic songs by a range of artists which influenced the legendary Canuck singer-songwriter in his formative years. Young will kick off a European summer run with Crazy Horse on July 7 in Reykjavik, Iceland and will be back in North America for his annual appearance at the Bridge School Benefit on Oct. 25.

What Does the Supreme Court GPS Ruling Mean for Privacy?
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that police violated the Fourth Amendment when they attached and used a GPS device to track a suspect's vehicle without a warrant. So is this the death knell for warrantless location tracking?
Not so much.
The decision in the case, U.S. v Jones, is a "near-optimal result" for people concerned about privacy and surveillance technology, wrote Paul Ohm, a professor at the University of Colorado Law School and a former computer-crime attorney at the Department of Justice.
But that doesn't mean the debate about privacy and surveillance in the technological age is over – not by a long shot.
For starters, the unanimous opinion is relatively limited. It applies only to the placement and use of a GPS device that had to be attached to the suspect's car. The justices said the device was an intrusion onto the suspect's property, even if the car was being driven on public roads. The opinion doesn't say anything about what would happen if the government were able to track the car through other electronic means, without ever touching the vehicle.
"The present case does not require us to answer that question," writes Justice Antonin Scalia, succinctly leaving the matter for other poor schmucks to handle.
But it's a big question. As technology becomes more advanced, law enforcement is increasingly collecting information from video cameras, cellphone signals, license plate readers and the like to build a picture of people's activity, even without physically intruding on a suspect's property.
What's really interesting, though, is that a majority of justices on the court seem prepared to tackle that question themselves, should they ever be presented with a case.
In a concurring opinion joined by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, Samuel Alito writes that "the use of longer term GPS monitoring in investigations of most offenses impinges on expectations of privacy" – an idea that has nothing to do with whether anyone physically touches a suspect's property.
Sonia Sotomayor seems to go even further, suggesting that the court may need to consider something called the "third party doctrine," the idea that if a person knowingly gives data to a third party, they lose their Fourth Amendment protections for that information. "This approach is ill suited to the digital age, in which people reveal a great deal of information about themselves to third parties in the course of carrying out mundane tasks," she writes.
And even Scalia says "it may be" that electronic surveillance "is an unconstitutional invasion of privacy"; he just doesn't think the court needs to tackle that in the Jones case.
The opinions, when taken together, read as though the justices are basically asking for a better case that allows them to look at the issue of electronic surveillance. With the increasing use of this type of tracking, they should have that case soon enough.

#1 Ranked Children's Hospital by U.S. News & World Report
MyPatients provides referring primary care providers with secure access to their patients' information.
Boston Children's has launched the world's 1st program dedicated to offering hand transplants to children who qualify.
Innovation insider is a semi-monthly e-newsletter analyzes innovations at Boston Children's, other academic medical centers and from industry.
Read the latest blog by a Boston Children's doctor, clinician or staff member.
There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
Our program provides initial assessment to children who may have tuberculosis. If your child is suspected of having active tuberculosis (usually tuberculous pneumonia), he will probably be hospitalized and begin treatment with several anti-tuberculosis antibiotics. The Department of Public Health is notified and arrangements are made for them to oversee medication administration after your child leaves the hospital.
If your child has active TB, once he is allowed to go home, he will be followed by doctors in our outpatient clinic through monthly appointments with our doctors and nurses.
If your child has been infected with tuberculosis but does not have the active form of the disease, he is considered an inactive TB patient. He will be treated with an oral antibiotic for nine months and followed monthly by a clinic nurse until he has finished his course of treatment. This helps prevent your child's TB infection from turning into the active form of the disease.
At clinic appointments, we give your family and child extensive education about tuberculosis. Our staff provides training and guidance to your family regarding all aspects of home care, including how to give your child his medication.
The future of pediatrics will be forged by thinking differently, breaking paradigms and joining together in a shared vision of tackling the toughest challenges before us."

Under the spotlight today, we have NYX round lipsticks in Pumpkin Pie and Tea Rose.
NYX Round Lipstick
NYX Round Lipstick is a classic lipstick for all-year round. The mineral-based emollient formula offers a beautiful velvet texture, saturated color and it resists wear and smudging. It's your go-to lipstick. From Pure Nude to Pink Lyric to Chic Red, Round Lipstick is available in a jaw-dropping 144 shades.
My thoughts?
Pumpkin Pie
It's a semi sheer peachy nude shade.
Tea Rose
It's a beautiful muted rosy shade. A full coverage lipstick.
I hear people raving so much about these lipsticks. What makes it so special? The price + huge variety of shades I believe. I truly admire this but unfortunately, these didn't work for me so well. I really wanted to love them but I don't.
I got myself pumpkin pie and tea rose and I LOVE the shades. I so don't like the flimsy packaging - it makes me angry. The lipsticks are creamy, moisturizing and soft but in my case, they're too soft and fragile (I live in a hot/humid city). I ordered these through Pork Daisy.com and my first pumpkin pie came damaged. Pork Daisy was very kind to replace it for me. The second one came alright but if you look closely, both lippies are slightly bent from the base. Now thanks to Nyx, I have developed this phobia that if I press my lipsticks too hard, they'd melt or break. All of a sudden all my lipsticks (M.A.C, Rimmel, Beautyuk, DMGM) feel shaky and seem bent, I fear I'd break them or something. I am beyond careful with all my lipsticks now. Also, these don't last long on my lips. The color starts fading on me after an hour.
Despite the problems, I can't deny the fact that these are cheap and come in a huge variety of colors and finishes.
Here are the swatches
Here's how they both appear on me
|NYX Round Lipstick Pumpkin Pie applied on NC30 skin tone
|NYX Round Lipstick Pumpkin Pie applied on NC30 skin tone
You might like it if...
- You are looking for inexpensive lipsticks with variety of shades and finishes.
- You want a lipstick that is creamy and moisturizes.
- You're hunting for M.A.C dupes.
- You have to order them online. These are very fragile and bend easily.
- You want your lipsticks to last long.
My rating:
Overall, these are just OK lipsticks, not very impressive in my opinion. I am sorry Nyx.
These cost $2.98 from PorkDaisy.com. The website ships worldwide.
So what do you think about these? Do you own NYX round lipsticks?

Some people get frizzy hair in the summer humidity. Our hair gets as limp as a bizkit. So we picked up hair rules Lift Volumizing Shampoo ($5) to put a little Christina Aguilera à la Lady Marmalade back into our coif. It caps split ends and distributes shine throughout, giving us hair that is as perky as our
tatas attitudes.

While traveling in Germany, I am always on the lookout for historical evidence of Jewish life here. Unfortunately not much exists, having been wiped out by Germany's Third Reich. That's why I was especially pleased to find the oldest Jewish cemetery in Europe just up the road from us in the walled city of Worms (pronounced voorms).
Just outside the city walls, a few blocks from the famous Cathedral of St. Peter, sits the triangular patch of greenery containing the cemetery. Hundreds of sunken tombstones, all in varying states of decay, cover the peaceful site. The markers are mostly simple stone tablets inscribed in Hebrew, some with more ornamental borders. The oldest tombstone that is still legible dates from 1076.
Interestingly, all of the grave markers face the same direction which gives the eerie impression they are all looking at you as you make your way down the dirt path that rings the site. In Jewish cemeteries it is customary for the grave markers to face Jerusalem.
The most recent burial here was in 1940, however as early as 1911 the community had started using a new site since this one was already too full. Only established families could still use the Heiliger Sand after that time.
Worms had a large Jewish population from the 10th century with the first synagogue built in 1034. Located at the northeastern bend inside the original city walls, the Jewish quarter has been rebuilt and preserved and includes the synagogue and mikvah or ritual bath. More information in English is available at www.worms.de.
