Last week New Mexico's advisory board for the state's medical marijuana program unanimously voted to add Alzheimer's disease to the list of qualifying conditions for treatment by medical cannabis.
If approved by the state's Secretary of Health, New Mexico will become the 14th state to permit medical marijuana for treating Alzheimer's.
New Mexico's Drug Policy Alliance filed the petition to add neurodegenerative dementia to New Mexico's Compassionate Use Act on behalf of the state's Alzheimer's patients.
Research on cannabis as a treatment for Alzheimer's has been positive, including studies that found approved prescription drugs consistently failed to reduce Alzheimer's-related brain inflammation, while cannabis was demonstrated to be the most effective anti-inflammatory medication when tested on animals.
New Mexico's medical pot program currently has 16 qualifying conditions, including cancer, Crohn's disease and anorexia.
Over 30,000 New Mexicans are living with Alzheimer's disease – a figure projected to increase to more than 40,000 by 2025.

College Hockey:Tuesday Morning Quarterback: Dec. 1, 2009
Jim: Well, Todd, when people talk about the biblical tale of David and Goliath, there often comes a time when the David character can no longer be referred to as David. In the case of Bemidji State, might we be getting to that point? The Beavers aptly played the David role during last year's NCAA tournament, becoming the first "mid-major" to reach the Frozen Four. Now the Beavers' hot start to their season was capped last Friday when they defeated No. 1 Miami. You have to think that if it wasn't for Bemidji State dropping Saturday's overtime game against Ohio State (one that doesn't surprise me given the ultimate high the team likely had a night earlier), it would be No. 1 in the country right now.
Todd: I, for one, was kicking around the possibility of putting Bemidji State at No. 1 on my ballot after Friday's result, so I think that's a valid argument. And I also think it's fair to start moving the Beavers out of the underdog role, at least for this season. I'm not sure we'll ever get to the point where we're putting Bemidji State's program in with Division I's blue bloods because others have so much more Division I history behind them. But there's a place in the elite class for smaller, less-recognized-outside-college-hockey circles, and I think Tom Serratore's program is on the brink of that kind of recognition.
Jim: Another program certainly inspiring to be mentioned in the same breath as Bemidji is Quinnipiac. The Bobcats remained white hot last week with wins over Princeton and nationally ranked Massachusetts. The UMass win required a dramatic rally and overtime game-winner but that doesn't take away from the fact that Quinnipiac now sports the best record in the country at 12-1-0. We've talked a bit about the "Q" in this column already this season, but as we get toward the winter exam break, it's pretty realistic this club could be sporting a perfect league record of 9-0-0 and an overall mark of 16-1-0 when Santa comes down the chimney. Maybe the Bobcats deserve some consideration for No. 1?
Todd: It's not like they haven't been tested, that's for sure. I think holding off a late Cornell charge at Lynah a couple of weeks ago was an honest challenge at the highest level for Quinnipiac, and it appears that right now, the Bobcats are for real. For a team that had only nine conference victories last season, this is quite a dramatic improvement. I've been impressed by the fact that they've been able to score big consistently this season. They've scored at least three goals in every game, and only three times in those 13 outings have they managed only three. There are a lot of teams that would love to have three goals a game be the low-water mark. In this era of defense and goaltending, it's nice every once in a while to see a team be able to win by lighting up the scoreboard.
Jim: Now the test Quinnipiac will have is not getting too caught up in their own headlines. Many of the top teams this season, including Miami, Massachusetts-Lowell and Michigan State last weekend, had difficulty keeping the winning going once the national-ranking number got extremely low. Moving our attention elsewhere, let's look at a team at the other end of the spectrum that's played better than expected in recent weeks: Bowling Green. I'm sure I wasn't alone in being concerned that the Falcons might reach the holiday break without a win, having started 0-7-1 and having some daunting league opponents waiting in the wings. But as the competition has elevated, so too has BGSU's efforts — and results — as the Falcons have posted two wins and a shootout victory in three weekend series against Alaska (series split), Michigan (series split) and Notre Dame (loss and shootout win).
Todd: Obviously, Dennis Williams entered into a difficult situation at Bowling Green after Scott Paluch left in the offseason. So it wasn't too much of a surprise that the Falcons had trouble out of the gate. If this season is a bit of an audition for Williams in the head coaching role, I think the past few weeks have set his team up for a possible uptick in the second half. Whether that will be enough to keep the Falcons from looking elsewhere, I'm not so sure. On the topic of new coaches, one of the most interesting shake-ups of the offseason came late, when Shaun Hannah left Sacred Heart without a head coach in the second week of September. The Pioneers hired Yale assistant C.J. Marottolo in early October, but you knew it was going to be an interesting season there. So far, they're 3-7-2 — one game better than at the same point last year. Those are two situations that deserve some time to shake out this season, don't you think?
Jim: I think new coaching situations can often be interesting for schools. Sometimes the can be a shake-up and the new coach can inject life into a down program. Other times a coach can take over a program where the predecessor left for greener pastures and thus left behind a pretty good team that rallies in the wake of their past coach and performs above and beyond expectations. And then there are the cases of Bowling Green and Sacred Heart. Neither program was coming off successful campaigns and both coaches departed mid (or in SHU's case, late) summer. Thus the replacements are in a precarious situation of taking over a program without the opportunity to put much planning into the mix. With Marottolo and Williams, both are rookie college head coaches, so this has become trial by fire. But I think both schools still have high hopes. As you mentioned, Bowling Green is displaying reasons for such hope while I think C.J. needs more time at Sacred Heart. He's only been on the job for a few weeks, right? Anyway, what has your attention heading into this weekend?
Todd: It's Gold Pan time in Colorado, with Denver and Colorado College starting their four-game season series. The Pioneers haven't won the Gold Pan since 2006, and that gets noticed around the Denver program, considering how intense the rivalry with CC is. Denver is second in this week's poll; the Tigers are sixth. I don't think a lot of people expected to see the teams tied for first place in the WCHA standings with identical 7-2-1 records at their first meeting of the season, but there they are. Miami hosts Notre Dame, with the Irish just four points behind the first-place RedHawks in the new three-point CCHA system.
Jim: Out East, there's another rivalry a-brewin' as Boston University will host Boston College in the first of three meetings. The second of these contests, of course, will be played at the famed Fenway Park as the league takes advantage of the NHL's Winter Classic coming to town. I think this year's BC-BU series is a bit different than years past. Both teams will look to use this weekend's game on Saturday as a jump start to the second half. Despite being the two most recent national champions, we've documented it many times here that both BC and BU would like to be a bit better than their current records reflect.
Todd: It seems weird to me to already be talking about the second half, but we really have only two more full weekends of play before the holiday break. Then we're talking holiday tournaments, then the race for conference championships and before you know it, we'll be down to 16 teams. Until next week …

I know of no other book that speaks so well to those who want to continue to ply their excercise as they age. Based on interviews with 50 athletes over 50, this work offers valuable insights into how older individuals successfully maintain regular exercise and sports programs.
Spellbinding, inspirational stories of consistency and accomplishment are the lynchpins of this book. Their bold lives provide joy and satisfaction, and greater health and stamina is their prize.
Chapter Seven
The Ultimate Over-50 Athlete:
"Banana" George Blair
"If I have seen further than others, it is by standing
upon the shoulders of giants."
There is no one who exemplifies a strong and healthy life better than 94-year-old "Banana" George Blair. World-renowned for his colorful athletic style, George discovered a passion for water skiing in his forties, and developed an exercise plan that has served him into his nineties.
He was still water skiing, barefoot, at the age of 93.
It was my good fortune to connect with George and his wife, JoAnne. I am honored that George gave me his approval to include this profile of him in my book, because he is the very definition of what an older athlete is capable of.
If Jack LaLanne is the pioneer of raising America's awareness of what can be achieved through fitness, it is Banana George who symbolizes the joy and exuberance available through exercise. All who know the love of an active life owe a tremendous amount of thanks to both George and Jack for helping to stoke the fire of our athletic passions.
George's life is as interesting as it is long and strong. Born in 1915, he grew up in Todedo, Ohio, and was captain of his high school golf team. At Miami University of Ohio, he studied government and political science. With the Great Depression in full swing, George would hop trains to get from Ohio to Florida for spring break with his college fraternity brothers. It was on one of these trips that George was thrown from a train by hoboes and badly injured his back. This unfortunate incident would actually set the stage for the invention of Banana George as we know him.
After college, George worked for the city of Butler, Pennsylvania; served as a prcurement officer in the Army Air Corps during World War II: and started a company that took hospital photos of newborn babies and their mothers. Later, as a successful banker and real estate investor, he lived in New Jersey and had an apartment in New York City. In his late thirties, his back injury was so painful that he needed to have surgery. After surgery, he spent time recuperating in Florida.
His doctor advised him to swim to help him recover, but when George tried, he sank like a rock. A water ski instructor suggested that he try skiing, and when he did, George became totally enamored with the sport. At age 46, he skied barefoot for the first time, and soon adopted the moniker "Banana George," because of his lifelong love for the color yellow, his love for bananas, and the sunshiny joy that he himself exuded when he water skied. From yellow wetsuits to yellow suit jackets, George can readily be seen wearing his trademark color.
With his newfound enthusiasm for skiing and his knack for showmanship, George was soon entertaining crowds at Cypress Gardens in Florida. He was so adept at water skiing that he set several world records, including being the oldest person to ever barefoot water ski. He was also the first person to barefoot water ski on all seven continents.
Known all over the world, George has been a guest of leaders of many countries, including China, Australia, France, Germany, and Monaco. His popularity proved itself with American women when in 2002, Sports Illustrated for Women voted, then 87-year-old George, one of the world's sexiest men in sports.
Having picked up one of his fondest sports at the age of 46, George represents an approach to exercise that is taken by the majority of the over-50 athletes I have interviewed. This approach is used by innovative people who change from one sport to another – sometimes more than once. The result is a fresh and interesting physically active life.
George often tried new athletic adventures. After skiing barefoot for the first time at 46, he took his first solo airplane flight at 53. Then at 70, he took up wakeboarding; at 75, snowboarding; at 81, race car driving; at 82, skydiving; at 83, surfing; and at age 85, he rode a bull.
It's been said before: he's an incurable daredevil. Couple that with his outrageous joy and enthusiasm, and it's easy to understand his legendary influence on American athletics. George's vitality has infused our culture with a "can do" spirit for decades, while his playfulness reminds us of the fun and pleasure that we get from sports. Who in America's athletic community hasn't been affected by his crazy-happy spirit?
George, we thank you from the bottom of our healthy hearts!
Banana Geoge has a special friend in Florida: Ann O'Brine-Satterfield, inset photo far-right, founder
of UcanSki2, a program that shows athletes with disabilities that "they can ski too." Ann invited George to try out her invention the sit-ski.
George has not skied since two bad barefoot falls affected his balance a year ago. Here he is, enjoying the sit-ski for the first time and "having a ball," as he put it!

College Hockey:Semifinal Notebook
Three is Nice
When Boston College beat North Dakota to advance to their third consecutive national championship game, it set up an interesting symmetry with the second game.
The last team to advance to three consecutive national championships was Lake Superior, when Notre Dame coach Jeff Jackson was at the helm.
This is the second consecutive year that Michigan has ended their season at the Pepsi Center in an uncharacteristic offensive shootout. Last year, the Wolverines fell 8-5 to North Dakota.
Michigan goalie Billy Sauer, a Colorado Avalanche draft pick, has now given up 10 goals in four periods of hockey in the Pepsi Center, a .714 save percentage.
Michigan tied the game at the 14:49 mark of the third period, and looked to have a lot of momentum going into the overtime. However, Notre Dame dominated the extra session, outshooting the Wolverines 8-4.
"We didn't look good in the overtime, don't ask me why," said Wolverines' coach Red Berenson. "We were on our heels. We didn't get the puck deep, we were passive defensively, and we gave a few odd-man rushes. We just had a sloppy overtime."
Michigan played in the last overtime game in the Frozen Four, against Minnesota, also on April 10, in 2003. Michigan lost that game 3-2.
"We just said we have one overtime to play for a national championship game," said Notre Dame captain Mark Van Guilder. "We realized that we had to put the second and third period behind us and just move on. The game was back and forth all along, so we knew that if we got some momentum right away and got some cycle shifts we'd be just fine."
Hobey numbers
Kevin Porter, the favorite to win the Hobey Baker award tomorrow, assisted on Michigan's first goal, and finished his season with 33 goals and 30 assists.
Boston College's Nathan Gerbe, another Hobey candidate, had four points against North Dakota in the first game, and has the same number of goals as Porter and one more assist.
Jeff Jackson is now 6-1 in the Frozen Four as a coach. Jackson has never lost a semifinal game at the Frozen Four.
"I'm just fortunate that we've had the opportunity," said Jackson. "You try to get your team prepared to peak at the right time. I can't say that happened this year, but we turned the corner and we're back on the rise again, and there's no easy way to bottle peaking. The biggest thing is getting your team to believe in something."
Red Berenson is now 4-8 in Frozen Four games and 2-8 in Frozen Four semifinal games.
This will be the first all-private school matchup in the championship since 1985, when RPI played Providence in Detroit. It will be the 10th all-private school matchup overall.
This will also be the first all-Catholic school matchup in the NCAA hockey final, and Notre Dame's first appearance in the national championship game.

Not too long ago at the request of a dear friend and bride, I designed a black wedding gown for her. I personally am not traditional, but it definitely took my a minute to take in the request. I kept asking her, "Are you completely sure you want this for your wedding day? I know you want to be unconventional, but what about a different color?"
In my opinion, black always seemed like the color intended for mourning and to be worn at funerals. Though wearing a black wedding gown to your ceremony will probably still result in some ohhs and ahhs, it seems as though these days anything surprisingly taboo isn't so much so anymore. While reading articles and scanning through fashion magazines, brides seem to be taking more of a risk in choosing the cut and color of their gown.
I must say that after my dear friend tried on her gown for the first time, it literally took my breath away. There's just something romantic and mysterious about black. She looked absolutely gorgeous and the color of the gown didn't seem so important after all.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance Movie Reviews
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
Release Date: Feb 17, 2012
Genre: Action/AdventureComedy
Rating: (PG-13)
User reviews on Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
I likde watching this move and enjoyed it very much. If you know Ghostrider from the comics or the first movie you know what to expect and it delivers. Metaphysical stuff, impossible motorcycle stuff, self-serving and/or deserving revenge stuff with an ironic ending. But just action without good characters is not gonna cut it by itself. So I'm happy to report the casting and characters are excellent and its done with a twist of humor but still maintains its intensity.
I love B movies. I like to find the good in those films that everyone else berates as second to worst. To find some appreciation where others might have overlooked. That being said, GHOSTRIDER: SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE isn't worth the time I'm taking to type this review. I dragged MYSELF to this movie, and I hate myself for doing it. Where's a flux capacitor when you need one?! I want 1 hour and 35 minutes of my life back.
It's a steadfast practice of mine to compliment at least one aspect of a film out of sheer politeness, no matter how bad it is/was...in this case, I'd have to say it was the previews. Of the other movies.
Francis Ford Coppola must be absolutely mortified--heinously disappointed in his nephew Nicolas Cage. At the same time he's most likely blissfully thankful that Nick changed his last name to Cage, lest he bring shame to the Coppola name for starring in this train wreck of a film. Sorry, Francis--we know. My heart goes out to you & your family.
Y'know, just a couple hours ago I was thinking, "Gee, should I go see 'Ghostrider: Spirit of Vengenace', or should I gouge myself in the eyeball with a rusty 5000RPM dentist's drill?" In retrospect, I'm thinkin' I'd look pretty damn sexy with an eye patch. And depth perception is overrated.
As a girl I hated this film and I do not recommend seeing it in the theaters but I can see how teenage boys might enjoy it because it is full of action and silly characters that make no sense whatsoever. I was incredibly bored throughout the film but I tried to stay positive and find some things that are alright about this film, like the scenery was really beautiful because it was filmed in Turkey and Romania, i also thought some of the action scenes were pretty good. However, everything else about this film was pretty terrible, it was very uneven and chaotic and i had no idea what exactly was going on. Nicolas Cage was alright but i do not see him as an actor anymore, i think of him as a person who appears in movies in order to pay off his debts and nothing else.
I took my 13 year old nephew to see this film because he was begging me for a week and I of course had a terrible time watching this film but my nephew loved it and that is all it matters to me. I mean this film is ridiculous and a normal adult should not see it because I think it literally kills brain cells. However, teenage boys will probably like it because it has macho characters, special effects and insanely silly dialogue. This film was made for a very specific audience and that audience will be happy with this film. My nephew loved this film and he thanked me like hundred times for taking him to see this movie, so Nicolas Cage lost the respect of grown-ups but gained the respect and admiration of teenage boys.
Well, I have not seen the first movie and I am glad I did not because if it was as bad as this one then I am sure glad I d not waste my money. My boyfriend dragged me to this film and I kind of hate him for that. This film was so ridiculous and stupid that I wanted to leave in first 10 minutes. The story is really dumb and boring and all the characters in this film are overblown and silly, I think Nicolas Cage does not care about his career anymore and money is the only thing he cares about. The dialogue in this film is so funny and not in a good way, I really wish I did not waste my time on this film. Overall, this film sucked and I do not recommend seeing it in the theaters.

I have a stochastic matrix $A \in R^{n \times n}$ whose sum of the entries in each row is 1. When I found out the eigenvalues and eigenvectors for this stochastic matrix, it always happens that one of the eigenvalues is $1$.
Is it true that for any square stochastic matrix, one of the eigenvalues is $1$? If so, how do we prove it?

ICA to Make Donation to ASU Libraries
TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona State University's Intercollegiate Athletic Department (ICA) is forwarding $50,000 to the ASU Library System, as announced by department officials.
The presentation of the proceeds will take place just before kickoff of the ASU-USC football game on Saturday, October 11, 1997, at the Sun Devil Stadium. Kickoff is set for 12:30 p.m. (MST)
"Our intent is for these resources to be utilized by the Dean of the University Libraries in a way the most improves the ASU Library System," says Director of Athletics Dr. Kevin White. "The $50,000 is a result of excess Rose Bowl residual income. To be sure, the entire ASU Athletics community feels a strong commitment to supporting one of the finest library's in the country, wherein all Sun Devil students are incredibly well served."
ASU University Libraries has already distinguished itself as one of the top 35 academic research libraries in the United States and Canada.
"As an avid reader, I know the value a library can provide any community," Head Football Coach Bruce Snyder says. "Just as a first-class playing facility is vital to our athlete's success, a first-class library is vital to their success as students. The ASU community is blessed with both."
Members of the Student Athlete Advisory Board and ASU head coaches will make the presentation together prior to the game.

Meg Viggars
Nov. 25, 2013
CARBONDALE, Ill.—Southern Illinois University volleyball player Meg Viggars has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Freshman of the Week, the league announced Monday.
Viggars was the Salukis' spark over the weekend recording her fifth and sixth double-double of the season as Southern Illinois topped Illinois State and Indiana State to tie the school record for most conference wins in a season.
The Stoke-on-Trent, England native compiled 22 kills to average 2.44 per set. Viggars also was efficient behind the service line knocking in four aces. The freshman setter also recorded 25 digs to average 2.78 per set and tallied five block assists.
This honor marks the first time this season Viggars has been recognized as the MVC Freshman of the Week but second overall accolade. Viggars was named the Defensive Player of the Week on Nov. 11.

Chinese Baby Formula Scare
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is now urging parents to avoid Chinese-made baby formula. Reuters reports the FDA fears some of the formula, which is being blamed for the death of an infant in China, may have slipped into U.S. markets.
In response, China is widening its efforts to find the source of the contamination. They believe melamine—a substance used in fertilizers and plastics—may have been mixed in with milk used in manufacturing baby formula; more from Reuters.
Actually, melamine has run amuck before. Last year melamine contaminated a bunch of hogs and chickens—EEK!

Christina Aguilera was having a terrible 2011 for a while. Once known as pop's brightest talent, with the voice of a Mariah Carey and the bombshell appeal of Britney Spears, her star began to sink last year, with one lousy event after another. Album Bionic's electric hype disappeared last year once the record short-circuited. Burlesque might not have been as mocked as Mariah's Glitter or Jennifer Lopez's Gigli, but a soft, cushioned flop is still a flop. There was the divorce from husband Jordan Bratman, ending a marriage seen to be one of pop's strongest (granted, that's a low bar to clear), that National Anthem screwup, the arrest for public intoxication that drew P!nk's mockery.
But like J. Lo, Aguilera may well saved her career by swallowing her pride, cashing a fat paycheck, and becoming a reality-TV star. With her role as de facto lead judge/coach on NBC's new hit singing competition The Voice, Aguilera has found a prime platform to show millions of people that she's really not a train wreck, and to remind them that she still possesses a world-class voice (and that such things still matter). She's even dropping generalities about a new album as if nothing bad happened this year. Wait, maybe that's a low. Who can keep them straight anymore?
We can! In the spirit of Popdust's Jennifer Lopez feature back in April, we've put together a comprehensive guide to the ups and down of Xtina's career, from her "Genie" genius to the "Dirrty" sludge that smeared her image, up to Back to Basics retro dominance, the killer futuristic album that never was, and more.

MADISON, Wis.—Junior Shelby Houlihan and the Arizona State women's cross country team had a standout day for the Sun Devil program, topping six ranked teams as it finished in a superb 14th place with 461 points at Wisconsin's adidas Invitational at the Zimmer Championship Course.
The No. 30 Maroon and Gold men's team saw each of its seven competitors run under 25 minutes en route to a 20th place finish with 522 points, and ahead of five ranked opponents. Each Sun Devil runner posted a season best in Saturday's 8k race.
Houlihan finished fourth overall in the women's 6k race with a time of 19:52, improving upon her previous 6k mark this season by nearly 38 seconds (20:35.45 at the Griak Invitational on Sept. 29).
Once again, sophomore Adriana Olivas ran the race of her life, crossing the finish line in 20:26 for 33rd place and shattering her season best in the 6k, which was originally 21:45.30, set at the Griak Invitational in Minneapolis, Minn.
Freshman Chiara Warner, who joined the program from Townsend, Mont., raced for the first time as a Sun Devil on Saturday, and finished with a respectable mark of 21:01 for 86th place in a field of 288 runners.
Freshman Kala Stone and junior Shaina Corbin also scored for the squad, crossing the finish line in 21:37 and 21:40, respectively, for women's cross country head coach Ryan Cole's Sun Devils.
Of the numerous teams either ranked or receiving votes in this week's USTFCCCA poll, the Sun Devils finished ahead of twelve, including No. 15 Cornell, No. 17 Duke, No. 24 Boston College, No. 25 Vanderbilt, No. 26 BYU, and No. 29 Texas.
ASU also finished ahead of Pac-12 Conference foe UCLA, who received votes in the USTFCCCA poll and is ranked seventh in the West Region, where the Sun Devils are ranked at No. 12. UC Davis is also ranked ahead of ASU in the regional rankings at No. 9, but finished behind the Sun Devils at Wisconsin's race in 21st place.
For the men's team redshirt senior Garrett Seawell led the ASU finishers with a season best time of 24:07 for 59th overall. Seawell's previous best this season was set at the Griak Invitational at 24:42.2.
Each of Seawell's teammates also recorded sub-25 minute season bests and finished within a 46-second span. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Herson finished at 24:21, 35 seconds off his previous best mark, set in the Sun Devils' season opener, the George Kyte Classic, on Sept. 7.
Redshirt junior Garrett Baker-Slama recorded a time of 24.26, redshirt senior Steven Schnieders finished at 24:27, and freshman Bernie Montoya crossed the finish line with a season best 24:34.
ASU finished ahead of No. 27 Dartmouth, No. 26 Florida, RV Michigan State, No. 24 Georgetown, and No. 22 Minnesota. Furthermore, the Sun Devils topped Pac-12 foe No. 21 UCLA and league rival Arizona.
Overall, it was a good day for cross country programs in the state of Arizona, as the No.3 Arizona women won the team title with four of its five point scorers finishing in the top-25 and 117 total points. For the men, Northern Arizona won the team crown with each of its five point scorers finishing in the top-50 for 121 total points.
Individually, Dartmouth's Abbey D'Agostino crossed the finish line first with a course record time of 19:31. Arkansas' Kemoy Campbell won the men's individual title with a time of 23:12.
Up next, the Sun Devil squads will have two weeks to prepare for the 2013 Pac-12 Cross Country Championships, set for Saturday, Nov. 2 in Louisville, Colo.

That seems pretty useful so far, and I found that if a material is enjoyable I can read it without difficulty or any track of time. Ok, so following this document, I should start studying Python, then move on to C# and Java. I will go ahead and search for useful material on the forum, but if anyone has anything to add to what is already here, I would appreciate it.

Twenty-three teams from 18 ISU member nations, representing five continents, contested the 2010 World Synchronized Skating Championships in Colorado Springs, Colo., last weekend.
Finland claimed the top two steps of the podium. The Rockettes, (Finland 1) claimed gold ahead of Marigold Ice Unity (Finland 2) and America's Haydenettes were ecstatic to claim the bronze medal.
The Rockettes won the short program with their performance to the music of "Harem´s Secret," scoring 81.4 points. The team's free program to "Catch Me If You Can" earned top program component scores, including a mark of 9.15 for presentation. With a combined score of 223.90 points the Rockettes skated away with the gold medal.
Heading into the free program, Marigold Ice Unity, the three-time World champions, were in a distant fifth place. But their performance to "Les Miserables" which featured beautiful spread eagles, butterflies and transitions, touched the audience and the judges. Their total competition score of 216.98 points flipped them into second place.
Skating to "What a Wonderful World," the Haydenettes placed second in the short with a score of 78.62 points. The team's free program to "West Side Story" was their best performance of the season, with great lines in the no hold block and a stunning circle element. The total competition score of 216.48 put them in third. "We are in disbelief right now," the team captain later told the press. "We have been so close to the medals but never got one, not until today. We are very happy." Haydenettes coach, Saga Krantz, a native of Finland, was a member of the Rockettes team that claimed silver at the 2001 World Championships.
Canada's second ranked team, Black Ice, finished fourth with 210.90 points, ahead of the national champions, Nexxice.
Team Surprise from Sweden was fourth after the short but a number of falls in the free skate proved costly and they could do no better than sixth.

Light and Dark Spots
The light and dark spots come from when you expose a photographic plate to
x-rays. The plate starts off whitish, and when x-rays strike the plate, that
section of the plate gets darker.
That means that different amounts of x-rays are reaching different parts of
the plate.
Uh-huh. And why should there be these differences? Try this out.
That makes sense and explains something else. Anytime there is more matter,
whether it's thicker or just has a higher density, fewer x-rays get out. Bones
appear lighter on the image because bone is denser than the rest of the body.
And in dental x-rays, metal fillings appear white, because the metal is very
dense. That's why they put a lead apron on you, to protect your body from the

After a £70,000 matched investment refurbishment by brewers Shepherd Neame and new licensee Andy Martin, The Anchor in Abbey Street is now set to offer an additional service to the Faversham community.
Under the management of husband and wife team Grant and Natalie Ravenscroft, a South-African and French couple with eighteen years' experience in the hospitality industry, the pub's new general store will open daily from 8am serving coffee and cake and tea and toast, as well as the more usual pub fare, available all day from midday until 9pm.
Says Grant, "What we're offering is an opportunity to come and breakfast in relaxed surroundings, meet friends for a coffee and a superb, locally-made cake or simply browse our general store. Customers will be able to enter the coffee shop area via a separate entrance and there will be a range of luxury produce such as jams and chutneys for sale."
Licensee Andy, 39, who is in banking and investment and lives and runs a farm in Hernhill, adds: "The Anchor is a wonderfully characterful community pub, the essence of which our renovation works have sought to preserve, while making the interior of the pub brighter and fresher.
"Our restaurant menu will be 50 to 60 per cent fish-based, with meat dishes sourced from my own farm. The coffee shop is intended to meet the needs of diverse locals, from walkers to mums."
The Anchor will also play host to the local theatre group and a collective of local artists, whose work will be displayed in the pub.
Shepherd Neame property and tenanted trade director George Barnes, comments: "It's great to see a traditional pub like The Anchor diversifying to offer something new, which really serves its local community."

FilmOn launches new remote TV service
By Emily Steel in New York
FilmOn, the controversial start-up from Greek billionaire Alki David, is raising the stakes in the battle over the future of television with a new service that lets viewers remotely watch local television broadcasts.
Through its "Teleport Technology", a person in New York can watch local television broadcast in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Miami and Denver, among other US cities. The free service is launching in the US but could extend internationally.
The technology is likely to spark concern among traditional broadcasters such as ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC who are fighting the advance of television streaming services from the likes of FilmOn and its rival Aereo, which allow people to watch broadcast television without paying for traditional cable subscriptions.
At the heart of the battle is the threat to so-called retransmission fees that cable companies pay to carry broadcasters' content.
For years, broadcasters offered their signals to cable, satellite and telecoms groups for free. In the past five years, however, broadcasters started demanding that distributors pay to retransmit their programming, creating a new revenue stream worth more than $2bn a year that could soar to $12bn, according to Rich Greenfield, a BTIG Research analyst. Those fees account for as much as a third of some broadcaster's profits.
While only about 10 per cent of Americans rely on "rabbit ear" antennas for watching television, those retransmission fees could come under threat as more viewers cancel traditional pay-television subscriptions in favour of cheaper online streaming alternatives, such as Aereo and Netflix.
A Supreme Court battle now looms in the US over the legality of television services such as FilmOn and Aereo. Broadcasters are trying to shut down the services, claiming that they violate copyright by rebroadcasting signals without consent. FilmOn and Aereo claim instead that they have invented a new and more convenient form of rabbit ears that allow Americans to watch free-to-air television.
The new FilmOn teleport service allows consumers to watch the television shows they want to watch when and where they want to watch them at the same time that it is broadening the audience for independent broadcasters, said Mr David, the self-described "serial killer media entrepreneur" also behind the peer-to-peer streaming site BattleCam.com. FilmOn makes money by selling advertising as well as access to high-definition video and other services.
"It is not killing the media industry at all," he said. "The media industry has ultimately killed itself."
Aereo, the subscription-based television streaming company backed by Barry Diller's IAC, has won a series of court battles and is due to argue its case before the Supreme Court this spring. FilmOn, which offers a similar service for free, has filed a motion to intervene in the case.
Unlike Aereo, court restrictions bar FilmOn from offering major network television through its service in most locations. Mr David said that those restrictions inspired the company to invent its latest offering. "Desperation is the mother of invention," he said.
FilmOn now offers more than 350 live television channels as well as original programming globally and across devices. Last month, 20m FilmOn viewers watched more than 1.2bn video streams.

Sophomore Lauren Spargo had 14 points and eight rebounds in a loss at Big West-leading Pacific.
Feb. 2, 2013
Box Score | Breast Cancer Awareness Game
STOCKTON, Calif. - The Long Beach State women's basketball team hung with Big West-leading Pacific for 30 minutes, but the Tigers pulled ahead midway through the second half for the 69-53 victory Saturday evening at Alex G. Spanos Center.
LBSU (11-10, 4-5 Big West) outrebounded UOP, 50-39, and owned a better field goal percentage (37.0-to-32.8), but it suffered from 27 turnovers that led to 33 points for the home team.
Sophomore Lauren Spargo paced the 49ers with 14 points and a career-best eight rebounds. Sophomore Bianka Balthazar also finished with 12 points, while classmate Ella Clark added nine points and a career-high 11 boards. Sophomore Alex Sanchez had a team-best seven assists.
Long Beach State took an early 2-1 lead with a Devin Hudson layup at the 18-minute mark, but Pacific answered with a 9-2 spurt to go on top, 10-4. Spargo then scored five-straight points to cut the deficit to 10-9.
The Tigers (18-3, 8-1 Big West) went back out front by six before the 49ers used a 12-6 run, capped by a three-point play from Balthazar, to tie it up at 21-21 with 6:44 to play. UOP then proceeded to outscore LBSU, 13-2, over the next four-plus minutes to take a 34-23 advantage. Long Beach State was then able to close the gap to seven as Jade Wilson's jumper at the buzzer made it 34-27 at intermission.
Balthazar and Spargo paced the 49ers with nine points each, while Clark had eight rebounds in the first period.
Long Beach State accounted for the first five points of the second half to tie it up at 34-34 following a three-point play from Balthazar with 16:58 remaining. Pacific went back on top before LBSU knotted the score again at 37-37 on a Sanchez 3-pointer. The Tigers then pulled ahead for good as a Kendall Kenyon jumper sparked an 11-2 run that gave them a 48-39 advantage.
Clark brought the 49ers within six (48-42) with a 3-pointer at the 10:07 mark, but Pacific went on a 16-4 sprint over the next 6:36 to take its largest lead at 64-46. The Tigers then held on for the 69-53 win.
Kenyon registered a game-high 16 points and 19 rebounds, while Kendall Rodriguez had 13 points for Pacific. UOP also finished with 18 steals, led by Erica McKenzie's six takeaways.
Long Beach State returns to the Walter Pyramid next week when it entertains Hawai'i (Feb. 7) and Cal State Northridge (Feb. 9). The 49ers will hold their Breast Cancer Awareness Night against the Matadors on Saturday, Feb. 9.

You don't have to look too hard to find a positive encouraging K-love station in your area and it will soon be even easier to find them in more locations. With expanding their market a top priority this year, K-love set to the task of tackling their Spring pledge drive this past week. K-love's Spring and Fall pledge drives help support their commercial-free Christian music radio station that reaches millions of people each day.
A typical pledge drive season for K-love and many other such stations often leaves them short on funds and lacking full funding in many demographics. But this year is turning out to be different for K-love. Even after they announced that they had met their goals nearly two days before the drive was set to end, calls still streamed in as more and more listeners donated thousands of dollars.
At a time when so many businesses, including radio stations, are going belly-up it's refreshing to see so many companies, families, church groups and individuals give to a cause that reaches a widely diversified group of people with positive, inspirational music and the message of Jesus Christ.
All donations received from a particular area code are credited to that area in order to fund their local stations. In Kentucky 89.9 FM, 96.3 FM and 95.3 FM is where you'll find K-love. For those who wonder what will happen to the additional funds from an area code that gets an over abundance of pledges, K-loves policy states the following: Donations we receive are credited to the zip code where you live. If an area reaches 100% of the goal and there is extra, it helps other K-LOVE stations. If you're an Internet listener, your gifts really are a big help to keeping online listening as an option.
There are many ways to support your local K-love radio stations. Prayer is the first and foremost but they have other options for those who want to support them financially but can't afford to give a monthly gift. To check out those options, click into Supporting K-love.
Never listened to them before? You really are missing out! As a lover of all kinds of music genres, I personally can't get enough of this positive, heart-felt music. There's never a need to be concerned if kids of any age are listening because the lyrics aren't filled with cuss words or sexually inappropriate scenarios. For people of all ages, K-love is a source of comfort, inspiration and joy. Wondering what K-love believes about God and The Bible, click into their Statement of Faith to find out.
To listen to K-love online from anywhere in the world, click into Klove.com You'll also find News, music links, daily inspirational scripture, concert information, local events and a place to share prayer requests on their website.

Daniel Lanois relates the title track to his new album Here is What is, to a Jamaican proverb he heard many times when he worked with reggae legend Jimmy Cliff. The song cautions, "Here is What Is. Don't you go walking too long in the dark." Advice Lanois seems to heed, as the album is the soundtrack to his new documentary of the same title. The documentary Here is What is, is what Lanois would call "the travelogue of his life" filmed over the course of the past year. In the film, Lanois guides the listener on a search for the "source of the art, rather than everything that surrounds the art." A point he simply describes as the "beauty of creation." The film and its companion album, allow Lanois to delve into "his orphanage" of many previously unreleased textures, rhythms, hooks, grooves, prose, rhymes and atmospheres and bring them all to light in a one of a kind sonic journey grounded by Lanois' stellar musicianship, imagination and relentless pursuit for that "spark of initial magic." Lanois is one of the most distinct and celebrated music producers, solo artists and composers in the modern era.
Lanois brought together some of his frequent collaborators including Brian Eno, Garth Hudson and Brian Blade for Here is What is. The album is currently available in digital form via Lanois' label Red Floor Records, with a wider release slated for March 2008, in tandem with DVD release of the documentary. The documentary debuted to great acclaim at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2007, which features guest appearances by U2, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Aaron Neville, Billy Bob Thornton and Sinead O'Connor. It has been described as "an invitation to experience a year of creation, looking over Daniel Lanois' shoulder." This exclusive look at this elusive artist in the recording studio is something music fans and scholars have longed for— for more than twenty years. From this journey, an array of songs emerge across a broad spectrum of musical genres.
Highlights on the 18 track album include "Lovechild," which begins with a remarkable improvised piano solo by Garth Hudson and transitions into Lanois on his trademark pedal steel guitar, an instrument he calls his "church in a suitcase." The pedal steel guitar later becomes the center of "Sacred and Secular," a song which heightens a poignant dialogue between Lanois, Eno and Blade.
The simple, "I Like That" is a song of appreciation for "the little things that keep the motor going." Lanois pines: "Give me sleeves rolled up, a wild tongue and good luck. And I like that." On a completely different plane, "Bells of Oaxaca," recalls Lanois' fondness for a Mexican village where an ambient symphony of bells rings every night at 7 p.m. This track is immediately contrasted with a roaring rendition of "This May Be The Last Time" led by Brian Blade's Father and his Zion Baptist Church in Shreveport, Louisiana. "Joy" has its roots in a sermon about the "pursuit of happiness" given by Blade's father, where out of loss, the choir asks the sky to let "destiny set them free."
Beyond the album's diverse musicality lies Lanois' gift for songwriting, conjuring up images of the real and the mysterious, like in the song "Where Will I Be" where the character is caught between "a poet's lament" and "blistering a heel by running in the dark." In "Not Fighting Anymore," Lanois offers, "a new part of the character's self is coming into bloom," indicating a changing shift in priorities. This is echoed in "Harry," a melancholy figure who Lanois encourages to "let the water pass" and allow "a stranger to feel his power," "know his secrets" and "see a passion no one has ever seen."
Earning an accolade from Rolling Stone Magazine as "the most important record producer to emerge in the '80s," Lanois along with Brian Eno broke ground in the music industry by collaborating on a number of landmark ambient releases, which transformed perception of space, music and performance. From here, Lanois began to forge relationships with some of the world's most renowned artists, offering them a fresh perspective on their sound. Through his production work with U2 on their seminal works, Lanois took the techniques he developed with Eno and went on to produce career defining albums for Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, and Emmylou Harris. Lanois describes his production work as follows: "Some people call it atmosphere, some people call it a hook or a groove, essentially what I'm looking for is that part of the song that sets it apart, gives it its identity. Take Bob Dylan's 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door,' you understand what that song is before he even begins to sing. That's what I'm looking for. That's magic."
As a producer, Lanois, the recipient of ten Grammy awards and five Juno awards, has been at the heart of some of the past century's masterworks including U2's The Joshua Tree, The Unforgettable Fire, Achtung Baby, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, and All That You Can't Leave Behind; Bob Dylan's Oh Mercy and Time Out of Mind; Peter Gabriel: So and Us; Willie Nelson's Teatro; Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball; Scott Weiland's 12 Bar Blues; The Neville Brothers' Yellow Moon; Brian Eno's Apollo, Music For Films II, On Land, The Pearl, and Plateaux Of Mirror; Robbie Robertson's Robbie Robertson; .Luscious Jackson's Fever In Fever Out, and the soundtrack to Billy Bob Thornton's Slingblade.
In the meantime, Lanois is anxiously awaiting his next trip to Dublin, to meet Brian Eno, Bono and the boys, where he will co-produce U2's forthcoming album. He credits the band's longevity with having "hungry hearts" and creating an atmosphere where "commitment is contagious." He is even preparing a speech for their first day back. The first line is, "I need you to make a masterpiece."
Lanois understands the delicate balance between the songwriter and the producer, skills he jokingly says he picked up attending "the University of Bob Dylan."
"No one else can write Daniel Lanois song, the same way no one else can write a Bob Dylan song," says Lanois. "As a producer you help an artist build the framework for their tracks and help them find sparks of magic. As a songwriter and solo artist, you are serving your own personal life experiences." Lanois has shared his life experiences through a beautiful and moving collection of solo albums beginning with his acclaimed 1989 debut, Acadie. Following through with 1993's Beauty of Wynona, 2003's Shine, and 2005's releases: Rockets and Belladonna. "For every song of mine that gets released there is an abundance of material that does not," says Lanois. (The Orphanage.) He plans to release six CDs of previously unreleased material through Red Floor Records known as The Omni Series. Each album will be assembled to represent a certain part of Lanois' work. For example, one album will be called Steel, featuring Lanois' work with steel instruments.

You know what's so great about having friends? Being able to talk about things like waxing, ingrown hairs, and regrowth. So, here we go: After we've been properly waxed, we think that Bliss Get Out Of Hair ($11) is pretty terrific. This lotion soothes, moisturizes, discourages ingrown hairs (how do you discourage an ingrown hair - by subtly criticizing it?), and keeps fuzz at a minimum. So glad we were able to share this moment with you.
Bliss no longer sells "Get Out Of Hair"Is there any other website that still sells it?It's fabulous!!

It was kind of sketchy place. NOT the bigger nicer best western we thought it was
Friendly staff & professional.
Used fabreeze to "freshen" room. A person who has slight allergies was overwhelmed by the smell. Will call ahead to change this for my next stay.
Staff were extremely friendly, service oriented, rooms clean, breakfast was really good. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and so did our two little dogs.
Very nice and clean. Friendly staff
Good repeat visit.
Rate and location
Floor and bathroom shower not clean
It was disgustingly dirty. There was a crack in the doorjam so big you could see daylight. I was required to pay in full at check-in rather than check-out.
At the cafe the burger is great value and worth it if you don't want to drive into Riverton to eat. Rooms are huge and well kept. The hotel staff is pleasant.
There's no alcohol available at the restaurant or the casino and they prohibit personal use in your room. The casino is terribly smoke filled and could be worthwhile if they had video poker or video blackjack
large comfy bed, large clean rooms with nice bathroom. Great shower head!
Clean place
Quick check-in and close by to amenities and event.
Building was only still under construction and because it was a small town, its hard not to be close by.
We had a great experience when we arrived. The lady at the desk was welcoming and gave us a good recommendation for dinner.
The breakfast in the morning was not good. We were trying to eat right away at 6:00 when it opened so we could hit the road. We chose this location because it offered a breakfast. The food was not ready, they didn't have any coffee, and the staff was not friendly. She looked like she just rolled out of bed and she wasn't wearing any shoes. I was concerned with he hygiene.
Excellent staff. Room was smoke-free.
Hallways and area outside of lobby had strong smoke smell. No re-usable (bowls, cups, places, utensils) at breakfast.
Here's why:
We're not the seller

SEATTLE - Alvin Snow scored 24 points to lead Eastern Washington to a 62-58 victory over Washington, the Eagles' first-ever victory over the Huskies.
The 6-2 Eagles are off to their best start since opening the 1976-77 season with a 15-1 record.
Nate Robinson scored 19 points, Doug Wrenn 12 and Will Conroy 11 for Washington (2-4).
Chris Hester added 10 points for Eastern Washington.
Washington had won all four of the previous meetings between the two schools.
Washington never led, but the Huskies scored eight straight points to tie the game for the third and final time at 56-56 on a Jeffrey Day put-back with 2:15 remaining in the game.
The Eagles led by two with six seconds remaining when Snow missed a long jumper as the shot clock expired, but T.J. Williams grabbed the rebound for Eastern Washington and passed it back to Snow.
Snow was fouled and made two free throws with 1.7 seconds remaining to seal the win.
Snow, a junior, had seven steals to increase his career total to 121.
With the game tied 26-26 early in the first half, Snow had eight points and a steal during a 12-4 run that put the Eagles up 38-30 with 14:07 remaining.
Three of Snow's points during that run were free throws resulting from technical fouls against Wrenn and Washington coach Lorenzo Romar.
The Eagles jumped out to an 8-2 lead and led by as many as six points twice in the first half.
Eastern Washington led 26-24 at halftime.

Confused? Excited? Don't worry. Dr. Vajayjay can fix that.
The New View Campaign has put together a parody training video as part of its Vulvanomics activist event.
In this video, we see an enterprising, unscrupulous, nominal doctor capitalizing on externally-created insecurities, sexualizing genital mutilation and effectively pathologizing female sexuality. His bumbling assistant Steve sees the truth but is powerless to stop the charlatan, money-hungry Dr. Vajayjay. Meanwhile, nameless female prop character is kept in the dark, the pawn in the doctor's get-rich-quick scheme.
"Dr. Vajayjay does not solve problems; he makes the most of them."
What most interests me about labiaplasty and "cosmetogynecology" is how easy our contemporary culture makes it for such corporatized quack medicine to succeed: Our puritanical lack of honest, pleasure-based sex education coupled with the preponderance of sexualized advertisements (which rigidly define attractiveness and sexuality in terms of white, nubile teenage girls) makes it easy to manufacture discontent and stigmatize the ignorant masses into believing they're deficient.
What is normal anyway? Genital diversity, like all manner of physical, racial and gender diversity is sorely lacking in mainstream media. In a rigid, capitalistic-at-all-costs culture, it's easy to create unnecessary insecurity about what is deemed "normal," especially when sexuality, women and female genitalia are so regularly and unremarkably criticized and scapegoated. With the help of female genital surgery, "naughty, nasty" vulvas, Dr. Vajayjay purports, can be turned into generic, prepubescent-looking "normal" vulvas, hence instantly achieving for their owners utter sexual, interpersonal, creative and self-actualized happiness. Right?
But doesn't genital surgery remove sensitive tissue? Aren't doctors co-opting scientific and feminist language to assume the mantle of legitimacy, then sexing it all up as "what women want"?
Sure they are. Welcome to America!
New View Campaign is a grassroots network that challenges the medicalization of sexuality through song, dance, and— well, mostly the written word and various activist/art projects. Founder Leonore Tiefer was featured widely in the muckraking documentary Orgasm, Inc.
Author comments are in a darker gray color for you to easily identify the posts author in the comments
I recognize that the emphasis on plastic surgery in out society is somewhat troubling. However, videos like these seem to take an infantilizing view of women, implying that they can't make mature decisions about their own sex organs, and are simply being coerced by doctors, partners, etc into getting procedures like these. This patronizing attitude reminds me of some anti-abortion videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMTMfrXaqRQ, which seems to cast women as "victims" of nefarious doctors.
"Somewhat troubling"? More than "somewhat". Porn is creating totally unreal expectations for women's private parts and that hurts everyone– women and men.
The video is not seriously taking a patronizing attitude, but rather spoofing one. And do I respect women's right to amputate their own genitalia to conform to these expectations? No. That's why the word "patriarchy" was invented….to treat the reality that insidious misogynist thought works its way deeply into women's consciousness, making us enemies of our true selves.
