Update 6/28/14: Trixie is safe and has left the facility!
A gorgeous, two-year-old pit bull mix named "Trixie," has reached the end of her time at the Los Angeles County Animal Care and Control facility in Baldwin Park, Calif.
Trixie arrived to the facility as a stray back on May 12 - during the weeks that followed, her owner did not come to the shelter to claim her and nobody has offered to provide her with a new home. According to shelter volunteers, Trixie is an affectionate, playful dog with an incredibly sweet disposition - she is said to do well with people, and other dogs.
Despite the glowing comments and observations, this beautiful dog is out of time - in fact, today may be Trixie's last day. On the Facebook page where her information is posted, the following comments are posted:
Say goodbye to "TRIXIE"---We are going to lose her...
Baldwin park shelter, California: ID# A4708323
Per shelter, she must exit today. No extensions. SHE SCORED 24 OUT OF 25 ON TEMP TEST.
Please share Trixie's information to help increase her visibility, before her time runs out.

Esthetician: I'm not familiar with papain cream alba. What I would do in your case is consulting with physician to find out the actual reason of her symtoms before trying on some products.
Esthetician: Phytomer - HOMME Lift Performance Remodeling Contouring Concentrate is what I would suggest for you. Use it on your face and neck after you have washed your face every morning and night. It will help improve the skin texture but again, the result will not be as sugical procedure and it take a lot longer time.
Esthetician: I don't know exactly the affects it can have on your skin from a makeup brush but I do know that yeast can cause infections in the body so if the brushes were recalled I would suggest you send them back.
Esthetician: I don't believe there is a way to permanetley make your lips fuller but we have many lip glosses that can temporarily make your lips appear fuller. People tend to feel a tingle/burn sensation when using these but it does not last the entire time you wear it just initially.
Esthetician: No you do not need to see a doctor before using this product.
Esthetician: Para más gruesas pestańas sugiero RevitaLash Volumizing Mascara
Esthetician: A trick used to figure out skin undertones is to take a small square of red, blue, yellow, and green construction paper and hold it up to your jawline, right where your neck meet your chin. Which ever color seems to match your skin the most will be your undertone.
Esthetician: Hair by Revitalash is the product that you should use.
Esthetician: No it is for both men and women.
Esthetician: No there is no in home machine. The only machine for this would be a laser that only doctors can use. We do, however, carry a few products to help you with this.
Esthetician: You should try Exuviance Lightening Complex.
Esthetician: To even up and brighten skin tone, I would use the Chroma White line from Dermalogica. But if you are looking for makeup, I would suggest Dermalogica's Treatment Foundation.
Esthetician: The Art of Shaving has bot a pre and post shave unscented oil.
Esthetician: You both should use DS Laboratories shampoo and conditioner.
Esthetician: Bobbi Brown is absolutley a great brand of makeup but we also have some great brands that will also work with your skin and any makeup will stay on all day during humid days if you are using a good primer. Most makeup brand already have a primer but if not you can use any primer with different makeup brands.
Esthetician: There is no money back guarantee or any guarantee for that matter but I promise you that all the products we carry are top of the line and the only reason we cant guarantee any of our products is because everyones skin is different and what may work for one person may not work for another.
Esthetician: None of the products we carry can be found in local pharamacies or drug stores. We carry top of the line brands that cant be sold in certain places.
Esthetician: I don't think we have any "life changing" slimming products but we have many that will help a lot. We have FatGirlSlim by Bliss and we have Priori's Body Shaping complex and Priori's Slimming body complex along with many others for you to choose from.
Esthetician: Relastin has makup products made for each different skin type. This may help you with the acne flare up.
Esthetician: You can try BORGHESE - Ristorativo Di Vita Conditioning Treatment for Hair and Scalp.
Esthetician: Yes the hair loss products we carry really do work.
Esthetician: I would use the razor burn relife first and then the after shave balm. Use the razor burn relief only on effected areas and then use the balm on the entire shaved area.
Esthetician: I would go to your regular physcian and explain to him your problem so he can help you with that because I see no reason why make-up would trigger your asthma but he might.
Esthetician: We have all kinds of soaps and perfumes but if it's an odor problem you cant control you need to go see your doctor.
Esthetician: Well it all depends on your skin type but my personal favorite is their CoffeeBerry Natureceuticals line. It contains coffe berry which is a new and amazing antioxidant.
Esthetician: Phytomer Whiteclat2 Whitening Spot Corrector Serum is the best product for you.
Esthetician: I suggest Jane Iredale Active Light Under Eye Concealer.
Esthetician: Im not sure what brand you are talking about but no you would only get the number that corresponds with the color that you want and on our website there should be a chart for you to look at when you click on the product that will show what number goes with what color.
Esthetician: Some are and some aren't and if you read the description of a product it would mention if it was paraben free.
Esthetician: BABOR Sensational Eye Cream would work for both of you problems.
Esthetician: The only thing I can suggest for milia would be for you to lightly exfoliate using a product like dermalogica's daily microfoliant but you cant get any in your eye so if it is too close then I would not use it.
Esthetician: Well you cant get rid of birthmarks but if you were looking to cover them up then I can suggest any of our makeup concealers from lines like paula dorf, jane iredale, or dermablend.
Esthetician: No, if you are allergic to seeds and nuts I would not use any products containing nuts or seeds.
Esthetician: I'm not sure of which eyeshadow because we have so many but when you are looking through the eyeshadows on our website look at the bottem of the description and the ingredients should be there.
Esthetician: We don't carry either of those products so I'm really not familiar with them. I can, however, suggest a line we carry called Neocutis. This product helps with both fine lines and dark spots.
Esthetician: If the wound is opening you need to see a doctor right away.
Esthetician: For your fine lines you should try Neocutis or any of the anti-aging products we have on our website. There is no product that permanantly plumps your lips but there are lip glosses that temporarily plum your lips.
Esthetician: For one you should stop using that product and go to your local pharmacy and find a cream for your rash. If it still bothers you after that then I suggest you have it looked at by a doctor.
Esthetician: I'm not sure what products you plan on using from our site because we only carry supersmile and that only whitens teeth. I am not a dentist so I cant give you advice on this topic but I do advise that you do not perform any treatments without professional trainning.
Esthetician: Try DS Laboratories - Spectral.DNC Hair Loss Treatment
Esthetician: I would not know which supplements you can take for that as I am not a nutritionist but dermablend is a very good product to cover brusies.
Esthetician: No we do not
Esthetician: For stretch marks you can try one of the products from Mama Mio.As for your thin hair, you can go to our conditions and concerns section on our website and look under hair loss and check out all the different products that can help you.
Esthetician: Well I can't completely answer your question without seeing your skin but I can tell you it is a possibility. However, if you use it lightly over your face with a soft brush, I'm sure you wont have a problem.
Esthetician: We can't do medical consultations but if you live in New Jersey near our store in Nutley you can come in and talk to our esthetician and she can analyze your skin and suggest products for you. If you can't make it hear you can call in and ask what they suggest for your skin type.
Dr. Berger: Dear Virginia, once it's gone, it's gone. That's why we are so very, very careful not to shave eyebrow hair or accidentally laser it off! Wish I had better news. Dr. B
Dr. Berger: Dear Azita, I once knew a girl who had a very similar problem and solved it in an interesting way.
She switched to baby shampoo for the gentle cleansing and, one night a week, rubbed olive oil into her hair, wrapped it in a towel and went to sleep. In the morning she washed it and it looked fabulous!I'd give it a try. Let me know the results.
Dr. Berger: First question: Have you been in the country, where there are deer? Thought about Lyme's? It sounds like you should have been tested for that about a month ago. Has any lab work been done? What were the results?
Dr. Berger: I get asked this all the time. I'm a big fan of Perricone Products, except that they're seriously overpriced... but the Light Renewal system is questionable, at best. The strength of clinical LED lights and the precautions and restrictions involved make a home system essentially toothless in my opinion. Find an MD with an OmniLux system and get REAL treatments that are specific for your skin problems.
Dr. Berger: Dear Tabbie, Scarguard is a decent product for mild scarring, but the scars you describe are probably severe and deep.
Please don't develop false hopes for this product. Use it as directed, but don't expect miracles.
I wish I had better news, but I haven't seen the scars so it's difficult to answer.
Consult a plastic surgeon SPECIALIZING in burn reconstruction at a burn center. The science has come a long, long way in 30 years!
Dr. Berger: As you certainly already know, RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy) believed to be the result of dysfunction in the central or peripheral nervous systems. Other theories suggest that RSD follows an injury and is caused by triggering an immune response.
In either case,
Treatment may include: Physical therapy and exercise, Psychotherapy to relieve stress, anxiety, and depression, Spinal cord stimulation and,
Medications including: Topical analgesics, Anti-seizure drugs, Antidepressants (Pain CAN make one very depressed), Corticosteroids and even Opioids for severe pain.
Ask your internist to recommend a well thought of pain specialist. Start with combinations of topicals such as BLT or EMLA, and work from there.
All the best.
Eric Berger MD
Dr. Berger: Great question! Thanks, Sonya.
TT is a eubacterium. That means it's a bacteria, not a mold, and that it has thick, rigid cell walls (rather than flexible) and a flagella (tail) so it can move.
There's a lot of research going on about TT… it was isolated in a deep, hot water ocean vent off Japan, and prefers to live in VERY hot (65ºC, 150ºF) environments. It also can exist in hot water heaters.
To the best of my knowledge, and all the scientific data I could find, it currently has no human application except to separate you from your money.
Dr. Berger: Dear Sacha, your dermatologist is a good man.
Some things are just plain surgical, and this is one of them. The surgery is relatively simple and routine... don't look for cures that will disappoint. Go to the ophthalmologist, as recommended.
Dr. Berger: I do not... REPEAT: DO NOT... recommend using any adult product on an infant with out Pediatric supervision!
Babies skin is totally different than ours. Beware.
Dr. Berger: Dear Heather,
Feel free to call the office… 212-838-6900. Tell my office manager you contacted me through Beauty Bridge.
Dr. Berger: Dear Beth… STOP!
Retin-A can, in and of itself, dry and irritate the skin and should always be discontinued a few weeks before laser treatment of any type… especially IPL.
Your Aesthetician may be a good facialist, but I must question her judgment in this case.
And IPL will NOT treat rosacea.
I recommend arranging a consultation with a physician cosmetic skincare specialist before proceeding.
Dr. Berger: Dear Rhonda,
The treatment of choice is 4 sessions of IPL pulsed light or, in advanced cases (like you seem to describe) PDT with Levulin™. That will certainly do the trick.
Dr. Berger: Ichthyosis is a relatively rare genetic skin disorder. Literally, it means fish skin, since it is characterized by scaly, dry skin. Since it's a genetic mutation, it isn't contagious, there is usually a family history of the disease, which helps your physician diagnose the disorder.
Most types of ichthyosis are present at birth, and are life-long. There are about 25 different types of some so mild that over-the-counter moisturizers control the problem, some so severe that they scaling can be very painful; even restrict the body's range of movement, cause deep cracks or fissures at the joints, etc.
Normal skin sheds (exfoliates) in small flakes, constantly, and the process goes unnoticed. In Icthyosis, however, the shedding flakes are more firmly attached and larger due to clumping.
Treating this disorder is very labor intensive. To force the skin to shed faster and appear more normal, frequent bathing with an exfoliant sponge (like a loofah) and applying moisturizers and emollients several times a day is required.
I hope this answer was useful. There really is no cure only treatment.
Dr. Berger: Dear Meredith,
I am delighted that your health is improving, and would like to add that about 50% of Discoid Lupus cases go into complete remission. Those are really very good odds for any auto-immune disease.
Unfortunately, acne-form lesions are occasionally the FIRST symptom of the disease, and the treatment is often disappointing.
What modalities has your physician tried? Have you tried antibiotics... laser treatments... possibly, Laser Genesis?
Deep facial exfoliations with glycolic peels?
There is practically no literature regarding treatment, specifically, of these lesions... any attempt would be classified as an experiment, but the problem is emotionally devastating.
That being said, if you are in the NYC area I'd be pleased to see you and discuss the problem in person and see if I can be of any help.
All the best,
Eric Berger MD
Dr. Berger: Dear Xen,
I'm not certain I understand the question.
Is your skin still dry and thick, and are you under the care of an MD, or was it a transient problem of infancy?
Any good baby moisturizing lotion should do the trick... and remember, while adults "shed" a layer of skin every 30-60 days, your baby is renewing her skin every 10 days!
Talk to your pediatrician, but moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!
Eric Berger MD
Dr. Berger: Dear Dawn,
Though your description was pretty good for a non-dermatologist, there are any number of problems which present in this way.
Among them are melia, seborrheic hyperplasia and even pre-cancerous actinic keratotic lesions.
I highly recommend that you make an appointment with a dermatologist in your area for a more accurate disgnosis and treatment.
Not a spa... a physician.
Best regards,
Eric Berger MD
Medical Director
Dr. Berger: Dear Mickey,
Melia are actually trapped beneath the outermost layer of dead, keratinized skin.
The best solution is simply to exfoliate regularly.
There are several different types of exfoliation, but generally mechanical exfoliations such as Vibraderm, which gently vibrates away dead cells and refreshes the skin, or chemical peels (Glycolic acid, for example) will do the trick.
Find a qualified aesthetician near you and treat yourself to a Vibraderm or peel once a month.
Your melia will be gone and your skin will look wonderful.
Eric Berger MD
Dr. Berger: Dear Nelly (Deer Nelly?),
The thin skin is being extra protected by circulation and that's why you get the Rudolph-nose.
Don't IPL... IPL is for hyper-pigmentation, not transient, temperature related changes.
The best thing to do is keep your nose warm... a ski mask, for example, and HIGHLY protected with Chapstick/Vaseline-like substances to prevent chapping and cracking.
I've never been to Norway, and this would be an excellent excuse, so if you need me to make a housecall...
Best regards,
Eric Berger MD

"Thinking, Fast and Slow" Author Plagiarizes Thinking Paradigms to Dupe Intellectual Community?
"The confusing, whipsaw dichotomy of thinking systems is well documented in mythology, children's literature and television shows, yet Daniel Kahneman force feeds his audience this as an exciting new paradigm seasoned with Nobel Laureate salts." – Blanche Beecham
Scientific parody and satire are becoming all the rage amongst the liberal educated elite. Perhaps as homage to Darwin's parody of creation, a new fiction category of scientific satire has been steadily gaining popularity. Daniel Kahneman, winner of the 2002 Nobel Prize for economic science, published his contribution to this new fiction genre in late October 2011. "Thinking, Fast and Slow" is currently #12 on Amazon's best sellers list.
According to Kahneman, two distinct systems are at work in the brain. System one represents the intuitive or the 'gut feeling' method of quick decision making. System two is the more reasoned cousin of system one whereby the logical path to a final action is plotted and evaluated along the way. In "Thinking, Fast and Slow" Kahneman braids these two concepts into a beaded macramé hanger for the shrunken skull. He compares and contrasts each with lively parables and insights seasoned with some questionable experiments on the favored rats of psychology labs, graduate students. The result is a tome that is both didactic and at times a paradoxical portent of the mischief human beings can create.
Kahneman has attracted quite the intellectual audience with his work. The literati, or intelligentsia, are scholar-bureaucrats that determine the intellectual value of work. They have rapidly consumed Kahneman's words and left their erudite scat upon the pages of The New York Times, The Washington Post, The New York Review of Books and Vanity Fair. These book reviews have all the wisdom of owl pellets – dry, formless and filled with pitted bones from long dead concepts of scientific method. The reviewers plod about prostituting their media status to the newest thinking trend without considering that it may be a satirical wile that mocks the their endeavors. In true system one approach, these word smiths for the intellectual community follow gut reactions. They are oblivious to the irony and thusly are transformed into unaware participants in the ruse.
Perhaps due to the operant conditioning chamber of the scientific peer review process and social media, many so called intelligentsia simply fall prostrate when seeing 'Nobel Prize' next to an author's name. In social media terms it's an automatic 'Like' button. These ink coated whores of the printed word are charmed and beguiled by the notion of intelligence, but have no skill to identify it independently. They are not alone.
The average person seems to have lost the ability to identify scientific satire, preferring instead to outsource their thinking to others. This may explain Kahneman's wide appeal with the financial jet set that tends to gravitate towards 'gut check' righteousness of estimations and herd mentality. Kahneman's satirical scalpel slices into the meat of this hypothesis with a series of questions that parody scientific research with hilarious result.
In one example, students are given a short description and then asked a single question to illustrate the power of system one and two thinking.
Linda is thirty-one years old, single, outspoken, and very bright. She majored in philosophy. As a student, she was deeply concerned with issues of discrimination and social justice, and also participated in antinuclear demonstrations.
Which alternative is more probable?
1. Linda is a bank teller.
2. Linda is a bank teller and is active in the feminist movement.
According to Kahneman, a strong majority of Stanford business graduate students (85%) and an estimated 90% of undergraduates from other universities erroneously chose number two as an answer. This was declared incorrect because it "violates the laws of logic and probability."
Kahneman boldly places a perception paradox before his lab rats where 'Linda' is solely defined by her employment and social concerns. In terms of probability, when given multiple choices for highest accuracy and each includes the same quality, one should intuitively go for the answer that repeats the quality found in each answer as a simple rule of thumb. In his field work, Kahneman extols the virtues of system two logics and simultaneously derides the subjects of thinking too much. The description never said she was active in the feminist movement, only deeply concerned. While it is probable she would be active in feminist aggression, it is 100% probable that she is a bank teller because that is what the description says.
It becomes very clear to those engaged in financial and banking culture that this is satire since a majority of philosophy majors are bereft of money counting skills required for the position of bank teller. Counting money is a system one skill whereby the intuitive reaction to seeing Washington's face is to count to next consecutive number; Thomas Jefferson would mean adding twenty and so on.
The fact she is described as female is a false flag. Women are particularly good at counting due to the gathering and mothering instincts given to them by a loving Creator. Women have to be able to count children in motion, sometimes a near impossible task, to avoid Amber alerts and losing her husband's heirs. While many bank tellers are women, the statement she is a philosophy major seems to negate any natural inclinations.
The paradox of a Philosophy major as bank teller is not addressed because the description clearly states she is a bank teller, as improbable as that may be. Supporters of Kahneman will no doubt point to those feminine outliers that dabble in philosophy and also count money to shore up the Nobel Prize winner, but they fall flat since there is no empirical evidence to support all female philosophy majors are able to count money or have worked as bank tellers. The description as a whole seems improbable, but worthy of a chuckle.
The circumlocution undertaken by Kahneman is dizzying yet charming. He welds both a whip and feather to shame and tickle his audience and thusly distract them from his blatant plagiarism of past works. Much of the revelatory modeling presented in the book is based on cultural plagiarism. The confusing, whipsaw dichotomy of thinking systems is well documented in mythology, children's literature and television shows, yet Kahneman force feeds his audience this as an exciting new paradigm seasoned with Nobel Laureate salts. It becomes, in layman's terms, recycled nourishment also known as fecal waste.
"Lord save us!" cried the duck. "How does it make up its mind?"
Regarding the Pushmi-pullu from The Story of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting
The mythical pushmi-pullu from the Hugh Lofting children's classic, The Story of Doctor Dolittle, is easily identifiable as the primary hypothesis for Kehnerman's satirical work.
Reflection on the Pushmi-pullu and Kehneman's thinking systems reveals comparisons and contrasts worthy of note. With two brains, the creature is described as skittish and difficult to capture since one side is always alert and ready to react to any situation. Of course the animal is elusive since with two heads and no discernable procreative reproductive system, it is highly probable the pushmi-pullu indigenous population is limited.
And so it is with the two system model. Both elusive and without the ability to evolve it clearly begs for answers beyond the "Fast and Slow" model. Where do new ideas, faith and creativity come from in Kahneman paradigm? What of humor, music and beauty in this fast slow model? The work tends to have extreme bias with regards to these questions. Encouraging the reader to frazzle their thought process to a level of high alert for thinking bias, the reader's creativity is rendered barren, sterile and perfect for actuarial mathematics.
The fact Kahneman gives Lofting no credit should be indicative that this is not work to be taken seriously. This is where the Nobel Laureate fails to communicate the joke. Several commentators on the psychology forums and in the twitterverse have noted the great affect to their own thinking after reading the work. Unable to determine fact from fiction, they become bogged down examining situations rather than enjoying the moment. The investment circles are abuzz with 'fast and slow' thinking revelations and incorporating the lexicon into the business gibberish of quarterly reports and market analyses.
Science, even behavioral or 'meat' science, should bring positive change, not reduce people to lumbering shells of cognitive reactions, unable to discern fiction. Unfortunately, far too many will take "Thinking, Fast and Slow" to a level it cannot sustain. The intelligentsia should know better. Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel Laurette, should admit the satirical ruse he has so expertly played over 499 pages of text.

May 21, 2014
DEKALB, Ill. - Northern Illinois University Director of Sports Performance Brad Ohrt received the prestigious title of Master Strength & Conditioning Coach by the Collegiate Strength & Conditioning Coaches association at the CSCCa's annual convention in Salt Lake City, Utah.
"You have to hold yourself to a higher standard knowing you're considered a Masters in this profession," Ohrt said. "There are certain things people try to do on a professional basis, but this is one more thing that separates yourself."
A native of New Ulm, Minn., Ohrt enters his 18th season in college football and his title of Master Strength & Conditioning Coach is recognition for his years of service in the profession.
"The CSCCa does a couple different certifications," he said. "Then, they offer another level to anyone that's been a full-time collegiate or professional strength & conditioning coach for 12 years or more. They can apply to be considered a Master Strength & Conditioning Coach. It's their way to distinguish those who had the extra years of service."
While Ohrt's title is recognition for his service in the profession, it's part of a bigger movement by the CSCCa and the NCAA to have all strength & conditioning coaches be certified by August of 2015. All interns and graduate assistants will have to go through a practicum doing 600-plus hours of certification, take a written exam, write a program, defend and demonstrate they can teach that program properly to all the Master coaches.
"This test is a lot harder to take and a lot harder to pass," Ohrt said. "They're trying to make this the gold standard for what the NCAA is trying to achieve with this August 2015 deadline."
While overseeing the entire strength & conditioning efforts of the 17 Huskie Athletics teams, Ohrt works primarily with the NIU football program. During his tenure, the Huskies have appeared in three-straight Mid-American Conference championship games, with the league title in 2011 and 2012. In addition to the team's success, Ohrt has trained two league MVPs and one Heisman Trophy finalist.
"Northern's a great place. It's amazing how other coaches at this recent convention have realized that Northern is doing a nice job, not only with football, but with all the sports," Ohrt said. "There were a lot of coaches, many from the power five conferences, that came up to me and my staff wondering what we're doing because everything we're doing is working really well, which is kind of unique.
"It's been a lot of fun. I've told them all we've got great student-athletes, really good coaches and we're trying to do the right things to develop them the best we possibly can."

Thousands of mango-lovers converged on Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden for the 21st annual International Mango Festival on Saturday, July 13, and Sunday, July 14, 2013.
It was an opportunity to savor this succulent tropical fruit, and to learn more about its many varieties and uses. Although this year's festival featured Mexican mangos, varieties from elsewhere around the world were not neglected. The world's largest mango collection was on display in the Garden House, providing a touch-and-sniff experience of the assorted aromas, shapes, and colors of diverse kinds of mangos.
Attendees could also taste a selection of mangos and vote for their favorites, attend cooking demonstrations by top chefs, sample baked goods and other foods containing mangos, buy mango seedlings to plant and mangos to devour, and watch a flock of owl butterflies feast on mangos in the garden's Wings of the Tropics Exhibit.
Among the participants
A highlight of the festival, on Saturday morning only, was the Mango Bites Sampling – a selection of mango dishes and products from restaurants, caterers, and businesses. They included mini mango choux buns from Joanna's Marketplace, mango pie from Kenny's Great Pies, and mango coco-chia pudding from Whole Foods Market. Linda Aamal Kite of Antie Mae's Enterprise offered a piquant mango-ginger bread pudding.
Many of the food vendors on the Garden House lawn included mango recipes on their menus. Among them were Thai sticky rice and mango salad at Bangkok Cuisine, mango salsa at the Greek Food booth, a soup called mangospacho at CJ's Peruvian Grill, and mango pastries and juice at Gerbaud Bakery.
Also on offer was rambutan, a bright red fruit that looks like a hairy lychee. Originally from southeast Asia, it is grown in Guatemala and imported to south Florida by Ecoripe Tropicals, which doled out samples and sold the fruit at the festival.
Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is located at 10901 Old Cutler Road in Coral Gables.

Saturday, February 16, 2013
I was thinking about butterflies today. They are so beautiful and delicate. Not to mention the journey they go on to be healthy, they too pig out like crazy not because of the hustle and bustle of life but to become a more beautiful version of themselves. We often go through years of eating to much, and not thinking about what we are doing especially when some of us get married and have a family of our own. We tend to let ourselves go, but as we lose the weight and realize how special we are, we too our going through our little cocoon stage. We too will blossom into our own special little butterfly, we just got to keep at it and never give up. Believe in ourselves despite what is going on around us. Don't let slip ups make us want to give up. We owe it to ourselves more than anything else in the world.
So I am going to keep working on my inner butterfly, and I'm going to be that butterfly soon, may not be tomorrow, may not be next month, but will be soon. And as long as I see that light at the end of the tunnel, and realize I am worth every step... I will keep going, I will keep growing into the beautiful butterfly that I am. I have a question for all of my sparkfriends...if you got to choose what kind of butterfly you could be what would it be? I would be a an Australian Painted Lady
She is one of the more beautiful butterflies that I have come across on my search. But I do challenge you to find your inner butterfly, find your inner beauty... you will be much happier for it.
Also I am excited as I've mentioned in yesterday's blog, I finally got my treadmill. I absolutely love it. I have to watch my heart rate though, anything over 140 spells disaster for me so I have to pay attention. It's not the most fancy treadmill, but I hope it works for me as well as I would like it too. I even managed to get my new shoes today, even got 2 pairs for the price of one because they were on clearance and actually were buy one get one free at reebok. I was so thrilled. Well my photos wouldn't load, but I looked them up on line.

Dear FrogPrincess84,
What a lovely illustration, using butterflies for our inner selves! Love it! I don't know many kinds of butterflies, but I'd most like to be a Monarch. They fly to Mexico during cold times and, as a Spanish teacher, I'd like to go back there!
Thank you for helping my perspective and journey. Best of luck on yours.

Problems starting Yi on OSX
Colin Fleming <colin.mailinglist@...>
Hi all, I posted on the haskell-cafe list the other day about problems compiling HOC to try Yi out. It was forwarded onto the fine folk here and now HOC and Yi both build nicely. However I can't seem to start Yi with the Cocoa front end. I copied yi.hs from the examples page to ~/.yi and uncommented the import Yi.UI.Cocoa (start) line. However when I then try to start Yi get the following error: yi.hs:17:7: Could not find module `Yi.UI.Cocoa': it is not a module in the current program, or in any known package. This is with either Yi head or the version in Hackage. I'm guessing this means that when Yi was build it couldn't find HOC? Do I have to do anything else when configuring either Yi or HOC to make this work? Thanks again for any help, Colin

Fish Epic
- Release Date: Dec. 2013
- Publisher: 6waves
- Developer: 6waves
- Genre: Puzzle
- Official Site
Fish Epic is a free and fun match-3 puzzle game from the leading social game creator 6waves. As the latest installment in 6waves' 'Epic' franchise including Bubble Epic, Treasure Epic, Wonderland Epic and Mystery Epic, the new puzzler is a new exploration in the popular and crowded match-three genre leading players into a foaming journey in search for the legendary city of flying fish!
Fish Epic is built on the classic swap-and-match pattern of the match-3 games. On the differently shaped boards, you need to switch fish to match three or more species of the same color to pop them away gaining scores and stars towards the level goal. The level goal remains the same (except the last stage of every regional map) throughout the entire play: collect required fish and special livings like carol, turtle and clam within available moves. That doesn't mean the gameplay is lack of variety, however. The ever different board shape, the newly appearing special livings and obstacles and the many different boosters all combine to make every match a unique challenge and present a learning curve with progressively increasing difficulty.
The basics of Fish Epic is what you know very well. Match a minimum of three fish to pop and make bigger matches to create several different rockets that clear at least one row. Moreover, you can make mines by combo for a real blast. If you can continuously pop away the fish in the color of last match, you create combo and so mines that blast to clear an area of fish helpful in collection of fish swamp. When you complete the game goal and still have spare moves, they will be turned into rockets to give you a boost in the score.
Besides rockets and mines, there are a variety of boosters that can be unlocked with progression. At certain level you activate extra moves, trident to clear a space of any obstacles, rainbow spray to change the color of 8 fish to the color of your last match, shell snack to remove all turtles and clams on the board, color net to catch all fish of a chosen color and so on. You have three free supplies of each power-up items after unlocking them and can purchase more for earned coins or real cash when the free trials run out.
Fish Epic is a world of beauty filled by colorful bubbles and cute fish. Currently, it includes 8 maps that vary from one another in the background graphics and special obstacles. As you start the journey from the sky dock, you can travel your way through shellbyville, pirate's hideout and octovine jungle, etc. meeting new livings like carol, turtle and clam. It is designed with great details and animation in terms of obstacles. Matching fish next to a turtle will lure him out of his shell first and a second match allows you catch him; and making matches around the clam several times to see it open up showing its pearl inside.
The last stage of every map is a special boss fight similar to that in Monster Busters. You need to beat the seahorse, crab, octopus and other creatures in the center of the board by reducing their health to zero via making matches next to them. Booster work as effectively against them, too. Bosses will cause trouble as well. During a match they will turn some fish into obstacles from time to time to baffle your match.
Fish Epic can be played completely for free. To show support while gaining certain advantages, you can purchase the hard currency for real cash and use it in multiple aspects for an enhanced experience. With hard currency, you can extend the life slot or refill lives to full, purchase chips to spin on the roulette for a chance of gaining the premium currency, buy exclusive power-ups like the eternal big mine that lets you start off with a big mine on every level forever, or get extra moves to turn around the table.
A world of color and cuteness, a game of immersion and fun. Fish Epic does not revolutionize the match-3 genre but follows the established structure seen in many of its contenders. But with its stylish artwork and solid gameplay, it is a quality creation above the average.

Bradford Bulls 72 Doncaster 6
Shaun Ainscough and Elliott Whitehead both scored hat-tricks as the Bulls demolished Championship One part-timers Doncaster in the Carnegie Challenge Cup this afternoon.
Ainscough was deployed at full-back and capped a fine personal performance with three clinical scores, while Whitehead was similarly deadly from right centre.
Matt Diskin and Keith Lulia claimed two tries apiece, and there were further scores for Craig Kopczak, Ben Jeffries and John Bateman as Bradford booked their place in Monday's fifth-round draw.
Doncaster, missing playmaker Paul Cooke due to injury, stunned Odsal by taking a shock first-minute lead when prop Russ Spiers burrowed over from close range.
Former Bradford academy product Keiran Hyde added the conversion but the response from the Bulls could hardly have been more emphatic as their Super League class told.
Rookie Callum Windley showed some promising touches after coming off the bench in the first half before being replaced by Diskin shortly before the hour mark.

The second half of the 2014 season kicked off Friday night with a full slate of games, including the Mariners hitting the road to take on the Angels. After what turned into an extremely long night for both teams, Efron Navarro's 16th inning walk-off gave the Angels a 3-2 win at home.
Jered Weaver started the night on the mound for the Angels, and was essentially in cruise control through six innings. He had a shutout intact as he opened up the seventh with a 2-0 lead, but a pair of RBI singles from Brad Miller and Endy Chavez would chase him from the game unable to pick up a decision. From there, it was a revolving door of pitchers for the Angels, as nine pitchers in total would take the mound throughout the night.
Offensively, they got their help early on. That early two-run lead was thanks in part to David Freese, who doubled home the game's first run in the bottom of the fifth. He stretched out the double on a catching error and would end up at third. Moments later, he was brought home by a Hank Conger single.
But the hero of the night would be Efron Navarro. A one-out double from Mike Trout would set the stage for a late-game heroic effort. After Albert Pujols grounded out and Josh Hamilton was intentionally walked, Navarro was brought in as a pinch-hitter. He took the first pitch he saw, a 94-MPH fastball, back up the middle to send Trout home as the winning run. Remembering the two teams still had to play again on Saturday, it was a crucial victory for the Angels.
The win marked six in a a row, and a franchise-best 12th straight win over an AL West opponent. The Mariners have now lost five of their last seven heading into Saturday. The Angels remain 1½ games behind Oakland, who knocked off Baltimore on Friday night as well.
Hector Santiago picks up the official win, as he worked the final three innings for the Angels. He allowed just two hits in that stretch to slightly improve his record to 2-7 on the year. Dominic Leone is credited with the loss, pitching the final two-thirds of the 16th inning and giving up the winning run. The loss drops him to 2-2 on the year.
These two teams continue their series on Saturday night at Angels Stadium of Anaheim, with first pitch set for 9:05 Eastern. Felix Hernandez (11-2, 2.12 ERA) takes the mound for Seattle, coming off his start in Tuesday night's All-Star Game. Garrett Richards (11-2, 2.55 ERA) will start for the Angels, having the third best ERA in baseball coming off the break. This should be an interesting match, as King Felix is 7-1 with a 1.98 ERA and 94 strikeouts over his last 11 starts. The Angels however, have won their last eight games where Richards was the starter.

Lee Konitz & Sal Mosca: Kary's Trance
Kary's Trance
Lee Konitz (alto sax)
Spirits (Milestone)
Lee Konitz (alto sax), Sal Mosca (piano).
Composed by Lee Konitz.
Recorded: New York, February 1971
Rating: 95/100 (learn more)
What do two alumni of the Lennie Tristano school do when they reunite after some years? They play a tune that conjures up memories of their master, of course. Lee Konitz and Sal Mosca initially played together in 1949 on Subconscious-Lee, Konitz's first session as a leader, and recorded "Kary's Trance" together in 1956, though not in duo, on the altoist's Very Cool. More than two decades after their first encounter, and 15 years after their first version of this song, what is left of Tristano's lessons? Obviously his two former disciples have evolved, bringing his ideas into modern times.
Mosca is more faithful than Konitz, certainly because he's a pianist and studied longer with his mentor: his percussive touch and articulation are very close to Tristano's. But his angular approach is his own, and owes a lot to Monk's vision of the keyboard. Mosca is a brilliant accompanist with a unique conception of the pulse and of the relationship between the two hands. He's also a creative improviser with a great mastery of the piano's low register, and his melodic inventiveness leads him to insert a rare quotation from Rimsky Korsakov's "Scheherazade" in his solo. His style fully deserves to be reevaluated and studied in times when people have all but forgotten him.
As for Konitz, on this tune he penned while still sometimes playing with his former master, he shows how far he's drifted from Tristano's conceptions. His linear phrasing has evolved into a flurry of twirling, broken or daring melodic lines. His sound has grown harsher, and he sometimes searches for notes so high that he's on the brink of squawking or squealing. In other words, he takes chances, and sounds freer than many a "free jazz" player of the early '70s.

I picked up a book called "The Authentic I Ching" by Dr Wang Chang and Jon Sandifer. It includes information about two alternative methods of coming up with readings.
The first (Mei Hua) is where you come up with the hexagrams using the date and time. Then you analyse the relationship between the two trigrams, these relate to the subject and object in your question.
The second (Na Jia) involves analysing each line in turn of the hexagram, matching each with a specific element/animal and looking at how they work together.
To be honest, although these two methods look very interesting, I find the way in which the book descibes them very difficult to read, and have spotted one or two mistakes which are a bit obvious.
Does anyone else use these methods? I'd be interested to know more about how they can be put into practice - for example, I've attemped a reading using the Mei Hua method and it does indeed seem to make a lot of sense to me, although it's a lot easier if you use the Western calendar to come up with hexagrams rather than the Chinese lunar calendar.

It's a good thing my brother-in-law Dr. Bill Jacobs is a good holiday planner because he's directly responsible for the fact that Terreeia and I are here in Scottsdale, Arizona with my sister Elizabeth and my sweet nephews for 5 nights.
William & Markus
We're staying at the Kimpton Firesky Resort & Spa. When we arrived in our looong stretch limo (men are all about classy transportation–Bill again) we had adjoining rooms but not facing the pool.
I had called two days before and was told that they had adjoining rooms available but that there would be an additional charge to face the pool and that we could arrange it when we arrived.
Well, when we arrived, there was nothing beside the pool.
So what do I do? Do I smile sweetly and ask nicely? No. I get bitchy and cranky while Bill smiles and gets related.
At one point while the front office clerk was bent over her computer searching for rooms and I stood there with my arms crossed, Terreeia motioned for me to come over, get a smile on my face and uncross my arms.
When we walked to our adjoining rooms facing the highway with a promise to be moved the next day, I asked him which one of us got us moved? Bill or me? I'm guessing it was because of him.
The pool at the Kimpton
I was consulting with a client from California recently. She had just moved from New York and as we talked she mentioned that she was enjoying our conversation because of my straightforward, no-nonsense, bossy-but-in-a-charming-way voice.
She confided that when she arrived in LA to stay with her brother and sister-in-law while she was waiting to take possession of her new house, he told her that she needed to tone down her direct and aggresive Eastcoast personality now that she was living in the Westcoast.
I laughed and said that most of my long distance consulting was with readers who live in the East. The percentage of calls that are 3 hours ahead of me is mind-boggling.
I have often thought that if I lived in the East Coast, it would be okay to just be me and then would feel the need to apologize less for my sometimes pushy and impatient personality.
Terreeia won't even sit down in a restaurant until I am happy with where we're being seated. She knows. I can't have glare (my eyes are sensitive) I need atmosphere, and, well, let's face it, I'm a designer, my standards are high.
Speaking of restaurants, last night we had dinner at El Chorro restaurant not far from where we're staying. We loved it and highly recommend it. The atmosphere was perfect (check) and the service was fabulous!
The next day someone even called to ask how our dinner was the night before?? Extraordinary!
William and Markus ran right over to the huge cacti to touch it (above), they thought it was very cool.
I always appreciate good design in a commercial bathroom so I thought I'd share this pretty bathroom done in blues with you!
The only thing I would have changed here was the accent strip of blue. I think it would have been perfection if it was just clean, white subway. Just my personal preference.
I loved the bullnose edge and wall sconces on both sides of the decorative mirror.
Out in the bar area, I really liked the blue and white parisian style bar stools with terra cotta tiled floors.
I even snapped a photo of the decorative mosaic around the bar. Normally matchy, matchy tile like this with the same size blue and white pattern in the chair doesn't work but here it does!
Creative, decorative antlers going down the halls.
And pretty fairy lights wrapped around the trees outside the restaurant. With this atmosphere and the service, I can see why it was totally packed.
I snapped a quick picture of Markus outside as we were waiting for our car to take us back to the hotel.
One great thing about where we're staying is the Mall is a 10 minute walk from here (although we still take a car because it's hot!). We had so much fun shopping today! Every single store you can imagine is here.
Since I'm crazy about orange these days I couldn't resist these Tory Burch sandals. They match my mandarin orange lipstick that I wear constantly from MAC.
Bill and Terreeia went to a ball game together around dinner time so Elizabeth and I took the boys to old town for dinner. Here's a selfie of us!
William and Markus having desert in the perfect ice cream parlour with carrara topped tables and some more hex tile with blue walls and chairs. So great.
Here's Elizabeth with her ice cream!
Here's William and I in an airy taxi on our way back from dinner.
Whenever Markus walks through the front doors of the hotel he says "The sun is broken".
Our adjoining rooms are great by the way. We arrived Thursday night and Friday when we moved to poolside rooms Markus said "Will you guys be beside us again?
Yes, I said.
Will we have a tunnel from your room to ours?
Of course.
It's this experience that has me take great lengths to have the rooms that I want so that my nephews can run back and forth, especially at 6:00 am when my sister has already tip-toed over to have coffee with Terreeia and I in our room.
We love it here so much, we're thinking we need to find some more friends and buy a place here.
Terreeia has arthritis in her fingers and she had really bad allergies that cleared up as soon as we arrived so we need to figure out how we can spend more time here in the desert.
Gotta run, I have to get back to the trashy beach novel I'm reading (I NEVER do that).
PS. There's still time to make sure you get my Exterior go-to colours divided by undertone along with a step-by-step guide to choosing exterior colour during my 90 minute webinar May 29 at 11:00 am PDT time. (We'll send you the link to listen to later, if you can't make it live)
Thanks to all my readers who appreciate my direct and bossy-but-in-a-charming way personality. I love and appreciate you!! xoxo Maria

We need a forum to debate and agree on national issues
Posted Thursday, April 3 2014 at 19:24
In Summary
The reason we advocate for a national conference is to have a forum where a national agreement could be made with arrangements, mechanisms and measures to ensure that no victimisation or extra-legal revenge will take place. This would give assurances to regime pillars that regime change is not the end of the world
According to Joseph Nye, "Success depends not only on whose army wins, but also on whose story wins." I am returning to this theme because as we witness the tribulations of the life-presidency project and its promoters, those of us who stuck out our necks against it are gradually getting vindicated.
Last time, I covered patronage, corruption and repression as some of its consequences but at the time repression was of the opposition outside the regime.
Patronage continues as the means to secure loyalty or at least acquiescence in the schemes of regime survival but repression has spread to erstwhile regime pillars and supporters.
I am sure many of the apostles for the possession of a vision by one man, who have since fallen foul of the sole visionary, now appreciate the veracity of the line in John Bunyan's "The Shepherd Boy's Song…" that "He that is down needs fear no fall, He that is low no pride" and that "He that is humble ever shall have God to be his guide".
Some of these apostles are yet to find their footing as they continue to cling onto the NRM with discordant voices, while others have found their way to an unwelcoming opposition as it is difficult to believe that they are genuine because of their immediate past and their message that is already stale.
The opposition needs to assess the situation correctly in order to be able to take advantage of the gradual disintegration of the regime. All monolithic regimes are bound to develop opposition from within.
That is inevitable. It has started within the political class but it will increase within the security agencies and the military, the business community and even those currently inspired by alleged "divine" visions to support the regime.
Already, in the west of the country support is seriously eroded because of the realisation that the longer the regime continues in power the more it becomes an existential threat to the ethnic groups in the region and thus internal dissent is more likely to come from the West.
Therefore, the opposition needs to seize the opportunities offered by the fissures opening everywhere within the regime. For example, rather than gleefully watch the repression of those who are promoting an alternative NRM candidate, the opposition must defend their freedom of expression and to organise.
Rather than cast doubts on the genuineness of Generals David Sejusa, Biraro and others to the extent of even calling them Museveni agents, they should be welcome as any addition to the opposition is tantamount to a weakening of the regime, especially by symbolic figures like generals, former vice presidents or prime ministers and bishops
The opposition should avoid falling into the trap of condemning whole institutions, like the Judiciary, the army and the police instead of condemning specific actions and specific officers for excesses or errors of commission or omission.
There are some good people trapped by circumstances in all these institutions who are opposed to regime excesses. They must be made to feel that regime change is not a threat to them otherwise they will fight ferociously to defend the regime.
The reason we advocate for a national conference is to have a forum where a national agreement could be made with arrangements, mechanisms and measures to ensure that no victimisation or extra legal revenge will take place. This would give assurances to regime pillars that regime change is not the end of the world. Change will certainly come, but change must be good for all in order to meet least resistance.

N100m Bribe Rocks ANPP Senate Caucus
The removal of the duo is a throw back to the leadership crisis presently rocking the ANPP.
Already, one of the ANPP senators has been fingered to be at the centre of the N100 million bribery scandal which allegedly trailed the change of ANPP guard in the Senate.
Senate sources said the senator got the money from a sitting governor from one of the Northern states to sponsor the removal of Senator Albishir.
Meanwhile, an ANPP senator and the Public Accounts Committee Chairman, Senator Mamman Ali, is said to be up in arm against Albishir.
Aliâ??s grudge with Albishir, it was learnt, borders on clash of interest as both of them are alleged to be warming up for the governorship of Yobe State come 2007.
The senator's desperate moves to outwit Albishir, sources added, stemmed from recent indications from Gov-ernment House Damaturu, that the State Governor, Alhaji Bukar Abba Ibrahim, might be more disposed to Albishirâ??s candidature.
Abba Ibrahim is said to be in favour of Albishirâ??s candidature because of the senatorâ??s perceived maturity and reliability.
When the ANPP crisis broke out in the Senate on November 24, the Senate President, Chief Adolphus Wabara, tried in vain to persuade the ANPP Senate caucus to retain Albishir.
After over four hours of meeting however, the ANPP caucus took a compromise decision to allow Albishir and the Minority Whip, Senator Yushaâ??u Anka, to resign their appointments.
In picking their replacements, the caucus opted for Senator Lawan Shuaibu, Chairman Senate Committee on Drugs and Narcotics from Zamfara State as ANPP Minority leader and Senator Bello Yusuf Maitama from Jigawa as Minority Whip.
The ANPP caucus is said to have opposed all overtures by Ali to have the position zoned to his state (Yobe) to enable him become the new minority leader.
Sources at the meeting said the caucus rejected Ali as Albishirâ??s successor on the grounds that he could be a willing tool for some external forces.

March 13, 2014 | Vol. 117 -- No. 47
In the last few days, I have witnessed a new kind of strength that not many of my favorite superheroes could perform.
I was originally scheduled to spend part of my Saturday with my younger sister Crystal — or Boo as we call her.
She earned the nickname when she was 2, after she received a pair of boots that she refused to take off. The original plan was to see her in the morning, practice some driving and then have a quick lunch before I made the trip back to Cheney.
I did get to see my sister this weekend, but not in the way I could have ever imagined.
Crystal was eight months pregnant...

Tiger Woods who? Elin Nordegren has washed that man right out of her hair.
According to reports for several media outlets, Nordegren, 31, has been spotted "kissing and cuddling" with a fellow student at the Florida school she attends. The student is an attractive 35-year-old South African who has been seen with her several times.
Since divorcing Woods after it was discovered that he cheated on her left, right and sideways, Nordegren has kept a somewhat low profile, attending classes and raising her two children.
Good for her.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – Another year, another successful effort in the classroom, as the Mississippi State men's tennis Bulldogs finished the 2014 spring semester with a 3.77 grade point average, which stands as the highest amongst all MSU sports for the 2014 spring semester.
Seven scholarship student-athletes received Presidential Scholar honors by earning GPA's of 3.80 or higher. Of those seven, freshmen Rishab Agarwal, Florian Lakat and Egbert Weverink, along with senior Malte Stropp earned a perfect 4.00 in the classroom for the spring. Jordan Angus (3.81), Robin Haden (3.80) and Zach White (3.80) also earned Presidential Scholar honors.
Stropp, who was named to the Capital One Academic All-District 6 team on Thursday, is slated to graduate from Mississippi State on Saturday with a 3.97 GPA in Business Administration.
"We ask a lot of our players, both on and off the court," head coach Per Nilsson said. "I'm extremely proud of their accomplishments in the classroom. They take a lot of pride in their work and it shows. They are prime examples of what it means to be student-athletes."
MSU men's tennis, which made its 23rd NCAA Championship appearance in school history this season, was also announced tops amongst all MSU sports in the annual NCAA APR for the third-straight season.
The Bulldogs capped the 2014 season with a 19-11 record, including the program's fourth-straight NCAA Championship appearance. Highlighting the 2014 campaign were 13 wins against ranked opponents, including a 4-3 defeat of No. 4 Georgia earlier in the season at the 2014 ITA National Team Indoor Championship. The win gave the Bulldogs their first win against a top-five squad since 2011 and the first against UGA since 2005.
Individually, the Bulldogs' season is not finished, as State's duo of Angus and Stropp earned their second-straight NCAA Doubles Championship bid, while SEC Freshman of the Year and All-SEC Second Team honoree Florian Lakat earned first alternate for the 64-player NCAA singles field. Play for the tournament begins May 21 in Athens, Ga.
