Copland: Symphony No. 3
Aaron Copland
B. Nov. 14, 1900, Brooklyn, New York
D. Dec. 2, 1990, North Tarrytown, New York
Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra premiered Copland's Third Symphony in October 1946, a year after the end of World War II. In his autobiography Copland avoided giving a program, but called the work "a wartime piece – or, more accurately, an end-of-war piece – intended to reflect the euphoric spirit of the country at the time." Though this characterization is accurate, the narrative path traced in the 40 minutes of this symphony suggests that this euphoria is achieved only after private reflection and collective struggle.

Ministry Update
Teen Mania Closes Chapter on Historic Ministry Outreach
After almost 30 years of effective ministry to youth in North America, Ron & Katie Luce have completed this extensive chapter in the calling God gave them three decades ago to evangelize and mobilize youth for God's kingdom. Literally, millions of lives have been touched with the gospel and the discipleship training around the world.
"Katie and I feel this chapter coming to a close, and are grateful to the Lord for all that He has done through those who have rallied around this vision over the years. Together we have taken many risks, climbed many mountains and slayed many giants!" ~ Ron Luce
After starting in 1986 with a few hundred dollars and a passion to reach and inspire a generation to change the world, by the grace of God Teen Mania has had almost 30 years of thriving ministry to teens. Together with hundreds of staff, interns, donors and prayer partners our impact includes:
- Established Acquire the Fire– Beginning in 1991, Acquire the Fire (ATF) a revolutionary approach to reaching teens with high-tech and high-impact worship and teaching conference events.
- 33 regional cities reached annually
- 515 Acquire the Fire events in North America
- Over 3,000,000 attendees
- Over 100,000 youth pastors bringing their youth groups
- Historic youth stadium events beginning in 1999 at the Pontiac Silverdome with 73,000 attendees
- Acquire the Fire TV ( ATFTV)– 190 countries carry ATFTV with 200,000-300,000 monthly viewers
- Initiated a Battle Cry for a Generation through the mid-1990s with books, curriculum, stadium events and leadership events for pastors, to bring awareness to the plight of teens and tools to build successful youth ministry locally.
- Garnered media attention of CNN, ABC Nightline, NBC Nightly News, Sean Hannity radio, Bill O'Reilly show and Front Page of The New York Times.
- Potentially the largest annually and longest-running Christian youth conference in American history (24 years)
- Acquire the Fire International– Myanmar–July 2015– Teen Mania's Acquire the Fire made history by holding its first international event in Yangon, Myanmar, becoming the first youth event of its kind and magnitude in the nation's history with 13,000 in attendance and 3000 Buddhist's coming to Christ
- Established Global Expeditions– Beginning in 1986, the global outreach mission branch of Teen Mania has inspired and equipped 77,230 teenage missionaries and sent worldwide to 67 countries bringing 1,318,664 people becoming followers of Christ!
- 112 Homes built for homeless in Baja Mexico
- Over 1,000 children's vacation Bible schools and children's ministry outreach events
- SURGE Movie Event opened nationwide in 700 Movie theaters in fall 2013, with 20,000 attendees and 1,100 committing to Christ!
- Established in 1994 the Honor Academy Internship– with 7,300 Interns graduated and equipped
- Established a media arm for the ministry Center for Creative Media (CCM)-with hundreds of graduates producing music videos for top Christian bands, video content for live events, produced SURGE movie event and thousands of TV programs viewed worldwide.
- Teen Mania summer camps called Extreme Camps hosted 7,741 camp attendees
- June issue 2014, Ministry Today named Teen Mania in the "21 Most Effective Ministries in the 21st Century"
- Setting out with a goal of, "Making youth missions normal for the American Church", Teen Mania began to invite youth to go overseas when there was only one other youth missions organization of note.
- Today, almost every church in America operates their own youth mission trips!
- Managed to endure the financial crisis of 9/11, and the Great Recession to continue to reach teens and keep an organization operating while defying all the odds and challenges of para-church ministry to youth while producing large events, touring annually for 24 years across America and spanning the globe with teen mission outreaches.
- Being a catalyst for change as a forerunner ushering in a new era in youth ministry.
Teen Mania's partners and supporters have been a significant part of the organizations success since its establishment in 1986. Over the years, Teen Mania has partnered with numerous ministries, global Christian thought leaders, mission organizations and tens of thousands of churches through its 30 year history. Teen Mania's partners and friends have comprised of steering committees, well-known authors, council advisers, governing officials, 2 former Presidents of the United States of America, and prominent church and ministry leaders worldwide. Here are just a few:
"Teen Mania has been a multigenerational force of influence and instruction impacting the lives of teens all across America. The Church and generations of youth have been served by their gospel and leadership development. "
~ Pastor Robert Morris, Gateway Church, Southlake, Texas
"One of the most satisfying relationships I have is coming alongside of Teen Mania. For years, you have been making a difference in the lives of kids and it's just a joy to be a little part of the team."
~ John Maxwell
"I commend Teen Mania for the stand you are taking for Jesus. It is thrilling to see what God is doing through young people. I believe that you can change our world."
~ Billy Graham
"Teen Mania is a vital ministry changing multitudes of young people's lives. Ron Luce's impassioned call to youth challenges them to live a life that counts; one that is consumed with the cause of Christ."
~ Joyce Meyer
"Nearly 3,000 teenagers in twenty-two countries paying their own way for two weeks of hardship, coming to this world of so little, leaving behind, temporarily, their world where they have so much. Do they do it because of conviction, or something more?"
~ Bob Faw NBC Nightly News, Teen Mania's Global Expeditions
Teen Mania has helped to reach, minister and influence for Christ millions of young people. Many have gone on to become leaders in business, start and serve in churches and ministries both here in America and worldwide. They have become leaders in business, authors, teachers, successful entrepreneurs and planted mission organizations. Having been birthed from dreams that started at Teen Mania, innumerable lives have been impacted by living and sharing the Gospel in places of business, homes and mission outreaches around the world.
"As we will be stepping away from public ministry for a season we are seeking the Lord to see what our next assignment is that God will give us. We are grateful to our Pastor, Robert Morris and Gateway Church as they assist us both in the spiritual and physical renewal process after 30+ years in ministry and for helping us hear from the Lord on what calling He has next for Katie and me. Thank you for all who have joined us to see so many lives impacted over the 3 decades and your prayers and for your prayers for us as we seek the Lord for the future. " ~ Ron Luce

Mod Garages
The three Mod Garages in San Andreas offer a wide variety of personalization options for many different vehicles. Mod Garages are marked on the map by a red wrench icon.
Many items can be purchased and/or upgraded at these garages; Paint Jobs, Vents, Hood, Exhaust, Spoilers, Lights, Nitrous, Roof, Wheels, Stereo, and Hydraulics. Most items will vary depending on the vehicle, but wheels cost $620 to $1560, custom paint jobs are $1000, stereo upgrade is $100, and a hydraulics system is $1500. A Nitrous system is available in 3 different "strengths," 2×, 5×, and 10× (these options indicate how many times you would be able to use a nitro "boost").
- Opens after Cesar Vialpando
Transfenders the name is a play on the word Transgender. They offer customization options for about 65 different car types. The amount of customization available varies greatly for each car model; bring a car into the garage and see what each mod looks like for yourself! Nonetheless, all cars can get basic paint jobs, a choice from 10 types of wheels (including off-road wheels) and hydraulics.
Loco Low Co.
- Opens after Cesar Vialpando
Loco Low specializes in the eight Lowriders; these are the Blade, Broadway, Remington, Savanna, Slamvan, Tahoma, Tornado, and the Voodoo. While most of the Lowriders have a plethora of options (especially the Remington), options are limited with the Tahoma and Voodoo. All the Lowriders are compatible with Nitros, the stereo upgrade, and of course, hydraulics.
Wheel ArchAngels
- Opens after the second mission in the optional Wang Cars asset mission thread.
Wheel ArchAngels specializes in six street racing vehicles; these are the Elegy, Flash, Jester, Stratum, Sultan, and Uranus. Unlike the other two mod shops, the available options among these vehicles are largely the same. You can choose between three custom paintjobs, Alien and X-Flow brand exterior mods in six areas of the car, ten types of tires/hubcaps, nitrous, stereo boost, and hydraulics.

His hit song, "I Need a Dollar," was featured on HBO's "How to Make It in America," and sparked major attention. With a bouncing bass line, clean blues guitar riffs, and a sax and trumpet section from The Grand Scheme, Billie Jean's intensely personal lyrics are brought out in an entirely new way in one of the best covers of the song we've heard. Look out for more Aloe Blacc videos in the near future, and if you're in the New York area, don't miss him at Giant Step's Summerstage on July 17th on the Central Park main stage.

Last show I saw, a caller says she's 'addicted' to saving. The woman has $7000 in the bank and has a $7000 car loan. Bank pays 1%, car loan costs 6%. Simple math right, Suze? Pay the loan off and you're 5% to the good? WRONG! The first rule is to protect yourself from ruin. To have enough in the bank for emergencies. You didn't ask how much she made or what other savings she had. Or what she would do if she lost her job. The right answer is: Find a good money market fund or CD that will now pay 4%. Now your difference is only 2%, $140/year is a small price to pay to avoid getting evicted if you lose your job. This is part of the lesson of balancing the debt side and the savings side. It CAN make sense to be paying loan interest while saving, especially in retirement accounts. If your employer matches your 401(k) savings, maybe the first 5% you put in, it makes sense to fund the acount with that amount.
Of course the above numbers will change depending the current rates. And more important, the format of the call in show really didn't allow for the follow up question needed for Suze to give advice more specific to the caller's circumstance. I'll put this one in the 'grey' area, where her advice may have been right, although mine would have been different given the limited information.
I'd have quickly asked about her emergency funds. If she lost her job tomorrow, how would she pay her bills for the next few months. If she said she had futher funds or available low interest money, Suze's advice may have been what I'd suggest. But, as I say above, if she had a matching 401(k) that she wasn't taking advantage of, that would be the investment route of choice. We'll never know.

Two University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry dental clinics co-hosted Give Kids a Smile events on Saturday, Feb. 2, bringing free dental care to families in need. Sponsored by the American Dental Association, Give Kids a Smile events take place nationwide each February. The school has participated in or hosted Give Kids a Smile events for many years.
At Pacific's Dental Care Clinic in Stockton, volunteer dental professionals from the dental school, San Joaquin Dental Society and the local community came together to treat nearly 350 children. Dozens of student volunteers traveled to Stockton to participate in the event on behalf of the school's Student Community Outreach for Public Education (SCOPE) Program.
As in years past, the Stockton Give Kids a Smile event was co-hosted by Pacific and the San Joaquin Dental Society. Thousands of dollars worth of free dental care - in the form of fillings, sealants, cleanings, and more - was donated. The event also featured entertainment, games and oral health education opportunities.
A Give Kids a Smile event was also held on Feb. 2 at the school's Union City Dental Care Center, in partnership with the Southern Alameda County Dental Society. The clinic and dental society have together been hosting Give Kids a Smile events for many years, and through the years have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of care. This year alone more than $35,000 worth of care was donated.
Volunteer faculty, residents and staff; SCOPE student volunteers and local dental professionals joined forces to treat and educate area children. Nearly 70 children received care including fillings, crowns, pulpotomies, extractions, sealants and more. Families also received oral hygiene instructions, free toothbrushes and entertainment.
"It's wonderful to see so many talented professionals come together to treat children who might otherwise not receive any dental care," said Dr. Allen Wong, director of the Union City Clinic. "Thank you to everyone who volunteered and made this Give Kids a Smile one of our best yet."

wtf seriously. Yesterday we had 80 ° + plus the humidity factor in Montréal. Today it's only like 70 but I'm still sweating like hell so I'm guessing humidity must be around 300%. WTF is going on seriously? Summer's over. We usually get 55° as average max at this time of the year.

|Universities UK released its report on "Freedom of Speech on Campus: rights and responsibilities in UK universities."
The Working Group responsible for the report was chaired by Professor Malcolm Grant, Provost of University College London and member of the Caldicott Inquiry which investigated claims that Umar Farouk Abdulmuttalab had been radicalized during his student years at UCL (claims the Caldicott report unequivocally rejected).
He adds that "Universities need also to ensure that potentially aberrant behaviour is challenged and communicated to the police where appropriate. But it is emphatically not their function to impede the exercise of fundamental freedoms, in particular freedom of speech, through additional censorship, surveillance or invasion of privacy."
The report has been one year in the making and activities on university campuses across the country have given the working group's members much food for thought.
The cancellation of the German Society's event at LSE, which was due to feature Thilo Sarrazin, or Oxford University's hosting of Dr Zakir Naik via satellite link this week, are just a couple of cases where universities have grappled with balancing freedom of speech with security and legal requirements on equality, public order and incitement to racial or religious hatred.
The UUK report makes a strong case for the preservation and advancement of freedom of speech on campus sating, "unless views can be expressed they cannot also be challenged.
"It is precisely by being places where ideas and beliefs can be tested without fear of control, and where rationality underpins the pursuit of knowledge, that universities have come to represent one of our most important safeguards against views and ideologies that divide and undermine our open society."
The report restates the conditions espoused by PM David Cameron in his Munich address on the characteristics which mark out our "muscular liberalism". Qualities such as "freedom of speech, freedom of worship, democracy, the rule of law and equal rights, regardless of race, sex or sexuality."
The report notes the distinction between academic freedom and freedom of speech and observes that universities, like any other corporate body, are regulated by the law. The UUK report states:
"The right of academic freedom is qualified by the expression 'within the law'. This means that there are boundaries to academic freedom, but those boundaries are as set by the criminal and civil law, with the effect that acts which are unlawful are not protected. It is therefore the law that constrains the requirement to protect academic freedom, not a university's choices.
"Freedom of speech has a special role in universities, specifically protected as a matter of law. The legislation, in the form of the Education (No. 2) Act 1986, emphasises the significance of free speech for universities by imposing a legal obligation on them to promote and protect it, and in particular states that the only constraints on the duty to secure freedom of speech are those imposed by the law. As with academic freedom, it is for the law, not for institutions, to set limitations."
The report rejects the popular notion that universities are hotbeds of extremism noting that:
"The view of experts within government is that the higher education sector does not currently have a major problem with violent extremism."
The report also notes the important role universities play in provoking thought, debating ideas and enabling students to engage in critical thinking. It observes:
"Indeed by being places of debate universities are one of our most important pillars of civil society, and represent a safeguard against forces that divide and undermine society. If universities are to be the innovative and dynamic organisations that push back the boundaries of knowledge in areas of science, social sciences and the humanities, they must also be places where differing and difficult views can be brought forward, listened to and challenged.
"The Dearing Report provides a useful comment stating that one of the four main purposes of higher education is:
"…to play a major role in shaping a democratic, civilised, inclusive society.""
The UUK report notes the challenges posed by Islamophobia and anti-semitism on university campuses and the need to have strategies in place to deal with this. The report states:
"…if there were robust evidence of significant antisemitism or Islamophobia on campus, steps would need to be taken to address those specific developments."
The report also surveys the implementation of equality legislation and the requirements of the law on incitement to racial or religious hatred. It notes, "Tolerance and respect for opposing viewpoints, and the right to hold and express those opinions, are central to the preservation of the right to freedom of speech and entirely compatible with the fostering of good relations."
On the weaker protection afforded to Muslim students on campus, the report highlights the exemptions that apply on incitement to religious hatred which don't apply to incitement to racial hatred.
The report notes that:
"There is a specific exemption in the legislation relating to religious hatred which acknowledges that the offences should not be applied 'in a way which prohibits or restricts discussion, criticism or expressions of antipathy, dislike, ridicule, insult or abuse of particular religions or the beliefs or practices of their adherents or of any other belief system or the beliefs or practices of its adherents, or proselytising or urging adherents of a different religion or belief system to cease practising their religion or belief systems.'"
And Annex C of the report, on the summary of the legal framework within which universities must operate, the report usefully notes that "It will be noted that the focus of these offences [incitement to religious hatred] is on threatening words or behaviour but not insulting or abusive words or behaviour. Further, as the offences all involve the intent to stir up religious hatred, the defences available in relation to racial hatred do not apply. Intent is a necessary ingredient of the offences – it is not sufficient to show that religious hatred was likely to be stirred up."
The greater burden of proof required to prosecute on grounds of incitement to religious hatred has already been raised by the CPS and the Black Officers Association in their frustrated attempts to prosecute the BNP for distributing leaflets that foment anti-Muslim hatred.
Speaking to The Guardian on the UUK report, James Brandon of the government funded Quilliam Foundation said that the report failed to distinguish between the legitimate exercise of free speech and inciting hatred. He said:
"It also does not give clear advice about how universities should deal with suspected hate-preaching on campus or how they can support students who seek to challenge such hate-preaching themselves."
Perhaps Mr Brandon should read again the section of the report on universities being regulated by legislation on incitement to racial and religious hatred, equality legislation and the Public Order Act. The report is very clear that universities are governed by criminal and civil law on these matters and not by other special provisions.

My lucky guess would be the 2nd person. Normal you ovulate after 14 days of the 1st start of period. However, it is possible to get pregnant at anytime. That is a hard place to be in. Best wishes to you....posted 11/11/2014 by a BabyCenter Member

Mississippi State placed an SEC-leading 23 baseball players on this year's academic all-conference team, matching the program-high 23 academic honorees from the 2008 campaign. Eighty-three student-athletes representing MSU's eight spring sports were included on the league's spring academic honor roll, based on grades from the 2012 Summer, 2012 Fall and 2013 Spring terms.
Representing MSU on the 2013 SEC spring academic honor roll are: C-Nick Ammirati, P-Ben Bracewell, OF-C.T. Bradford, INF-Matthew Britton, P-Preston Brown, P-Trevor Fitts, INF-Nick Flair, SS-Adam Frazier, INF-Sam Frost, OF-Tyler Fullerton, P-Chad Girodo, P-Kendall Graveman, P-Jonathan Holder, P-Jacob Lindgren, P-Evan Mitchell, P-Ross Mitchell, INF/P-Daryl Norris, P-Luis Pollorena, P-Trey Porter, 1B-Wes Rea, OF-Hunter Renfroe, C-Mitch Slauter and P-Brandon Woodruff.
The list does not include first-year players, who will be included in a separate academic honor roll announced by the SEC later this summer.
SEC Baseball Scholar-Athlete of the Year Sam Frost of Hoover, Ala., and junior pitcher Kendall Graveman of Chelsea, Ala., earned their fourth academic all-conference designations.
John Cohen's fifth Mississippi State baseball edition posted a 51-20 record en route to a national runner-up finish in the 2013 NCAA College World Series. That team compiled a 3.25 grade point average for the 2013 spring semester with 24 of 34 players earning grade point averages of 3.0 or better and three posting perfect 4.0 GPAs.

Hosted by the Blazers, the meet is being held at the newly-constructed Birmingham CrossPlex. This marks one of two meets the Panthers will compete in at the CrossPlex during the 2013 Indoor Track season, after traveling to Birmingham three times last season.
The lone events on Thursday are the women's and men's 5,000m, which will start at 8:00 p.m. ET. The remainder of events will take place on Friday, beginning with the women's mile at 8:00 a.m. See the link to the meet information for a full schedule of events.
At the 2012 UAB Invite, GSU had a total of seven student-athletes place in the top-10 of their respective events. Georgia State was paced by a pair of third-place finishes from Jennifer Rubel in the women's 5,000m and Chris Harper in the men's mile.
The Panthers opened the 2013 indoor season with a successful showing at Clemson's Orange and Purple Winter Classic. Rubel won the 3,000m, while Niamh Kearney took first place in the 1,000m. GSU also had three individuals finish second in their respective events.
Georgia State track and field will compete in the Sun Belt for the first time this season, beginning with the conference indoor championship on Feb. 24-25 in Jonesboro, Ark.
Both Rubel and Kearney earned All-Sun Belt honors for the GSU during the 2012 cross country season, when the Panthers captured the women's conference championship.

Bravo Company, Spikes Tactical sell parts. Not too bad on prices and easy to install. Instructions usually come with parts but make sure they are for the proper length. Mid- Length, Carbine or Rifle.
First, what's your need or want? Better looks, or do you want a rail? Obviously a rail give you lots of options, such as a vertical foregrip and a light mount. My advice is to try a carbine with a VFG to see if you like it before you commit to the trouble of installing one.
Simply replacing the existing forend with a similar design or to install a heat shield is pretty straightforward. However, installing a rail, especially a free-floating one, requires additional tools which might require a gunsmith if you're not willing to buy them. For example, the gas block has to come off, which will daunt some folks. Brownell's has some videos that are quite informative, like this one - http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/lid=1...loat_Handguard
If you don't want to end much, the Magpul MOE is one of the best on he market. Rails are available as well as sling mounts and light kits. I can't recommend a quality quad rail for $150 or less, so that's what I'd do.
Accessories at the bottom of the link as well - http://store.magpul.com/product/MAG405/50
If you're on a budget, take a look at YHM's offerings. http://www.yhm.net/store/forearms.html Their fore-ends are at or under your price point, and are quite good, IMO.
If you want a free-floating barrel, I would recommend their diamond-pattern or light-weight options to avoid adding too much weight to the front of the rifle. If your mainly after the rails and don't want to mess with removing the FSB or barrel nut, they also make 2-piece quad rails that just replace your existing handguards, no smithing required.
I'm currently using a YHM diamond-pattern carbine length on my main AR. No complaints, it does what it's supposed to and it doesn't weigh much.
Great! Thanks guys. Now I have a little more info to go on.
To drop in another rail it helps to get the proper tool, they are under twenty bucks. You can do it with a buddy's help without the tool, gotta hold down the ring to release the grip. Like others said, what are you trying to do? Do not cheap oun on a hand guard/rail. It's a little pricey, but the Daniel Defense Omega rail is excellent and can be installed without gunsmith work.
The MOE hand guard give you better heat shielding to the support hand as well as being designed to accept acc. rails. If you want a free float rail the only thing that really fits in your price point that's worth a hoot is Yankee Hill Machine
I'm gonna go with the MOE. :)

As the summer season approaches singleton's thoughts turn to the delightful notion of summer romance. With so many outdoor activity options, where is the best place to meet your summer hottie?
The beach is one option, but with so many hot bodies in every direction, it's hard to zero in on one without rubbernecking every time another gorgeous guy or gal strolls by.
Backyard BBQ's, weddings, picnics, amusement parks, are great places as well.
Would you ever consider spending some time volunteering this summer to help those in need? First and foremost, it's for a good cause.
Secondly it's a great way to meet a thoughtful person who cares about people and helping others. You may meet other volunteers, perhaps some with common interest, and if there's a connection and a spark, doing a good deed can lead to a summer romance with potential.
That is, if you are interested in something more than a hook-up. Although, a number of great relationships and friendships have started with a little flirting or a fling. Sometimes when you're not looking for love; is when love finds you.

Central Valley performers will celebrate 25 years of Broadway-style revues with a retrospective show featuring the most requested numbers from previous years.
Of the original four nationwide senior companies, Fresno City College's New Wrinkles is the only active senior showcase company remaining in the country.
In addition to popular performance playbacks, many of the show's early alumni are scheduled to return.
"By building this year's entire show around the most popular numbers from the past 24 years ... we plan to recognize a number of our earlier performing alumni," said director Fred Bologna.
The setting for this year's show will be a birthday party enhanced by music and dancing, both spirited and reflective, befitting a celebration of 25 years.
The New Wrinkles venue includes 16 performances featuring more than 60 cast members, including North Fork's own Harlan Lang. All cast members are 55 years of age or older. This includes three seniors who have been with the show since it's inception in 1989.
For the 10th year, the New Wrinkles vocal coach and musical director is Dede Nibler with the entire production under the direction of Fred Bologna. This year's costumes will be supervised by Nancy Wayne and Judy Irvine.
The state-of-the art Fresno City College theatre, with not an obstructed seat in the house, has always been home base for the New Wrinkles shows.
Tickets for this year's show cost $16. Tickets are available at Fresno City College theatre box office and by phone at (559) 442-8221 or online at newwrinklesfresno.com. Box office hours are Monday thru Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Session 3 of the 2014 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships concluded Friday afternoon at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, and with it, some championship dreams for a couple top seeds and a 2013 champ... while Penn State, Oklahoma State and Minnesota have the most title hopes still alive for the Friday night semifinals.
Quarterfinals developments
No. 1 seeds Mitchell Port of Edinboro at 141 pounds, and Nebraska's James Green, both lost their quarterfinals matches. Port fell to No. 9 seed Evan Henderson of North Carolina State, while Green was pinned by Minnesota's Dylan Ness, the third straight opponent the Golden Gopher has pinned. In addition, Oklahoma's Kendric Maple, 2013 NCAA champ at 141 who moved up to 149, lost to Northwestern's Jason Tsirtsis in the quarters.
In the consolation bracket, Central Michigan's 174-pounder Mike Ottinger was disqualified for "flagrant misconduct" with just three seconds left in his match with Navy's Matt Miller, who had been winning 10-1. According to the Lehigh Valley Express-Times, "An NCAA official confirmed that Ottinger's offense was biting. All of the team points he earned for the Chippewas were forfeited and CMU was deducted an additional team point."
Semifinals forecast
Arguably the most-anticipated match for Friday night's semifinals will be at 184 pounds, where two-time NCAA champ Ed Ruth hopes to avenge his one loss of the season to Cornell's Gabe Dean at the 2014 Southern Scuffle in early January.
The 40 wrestlers who will be competing at Friday night's semifinals represent 20 schools. Penn State, Oklahoma State and Minnesota each have four competitors still in the title hunt, while Cornell, Iowa and Minnesota each have three. University of Missouri, Northern Iowa, Ohio State, and Virginia Tech each have two semifinalists.
Wrestling writer and University of Virginia All-American T.R. Foley offers his analysis and predictions for the semifinals at InterMat Platinum (requires a paid subscription).
The semifinals begin at 8 p.m. Eastern Friday, and will be telecast on ESPN Networks' flagship, ESPN.

From the NYTimes: BC Survivors should lift weights!

Phys Ed: Lifting Weights After Breast Cancer
By GRETCHEN REYNOLDS
Michael Hitoshi/Getty Images
Last year, an influential study examined whether breast cancer survivors with lymphedema could safely lift weights. Lymphedema, a painful and even disabling swelling of the arm, is a dreaded complication of breast-cancer surgery, especially if a woman had lymph nodes removed. Experts long thought that hefting weight of almost any kind would contribute to lymphedema in breast-cancer survivors and advised them to avoid picking up or carrying heavy purses, grocery bags, suitcases or their own children and to steer away, by all means, from formal weight training. But in last year�s study, breast-cancer survivors with a history of lymphedema who completed a slow, progressive program of weight training suffered fewer subsequent flare-ups of the condition than women who didn�t train, suggesting that weight lifting might actually combat lymphedema, not cause it.
The study, though, while suggestive and encouraging, was limited. It looked only at breast-cancer survivors who had already had lymphedema, not those survivors � a much larger group � who had not, so far, experienced the condition. Could those women also safely lift weights? Should they?
A large-scale follow-up study being published this week in The Journal of the American Medical Association provides some persuasive answers. In the study, weight training did not induce lymphedema. More fundamentally, the findings suggest that most breast cancer survivors would benefit from trips to the gym.
More Phys Ed columns
Faster, Higher, Stronger
Fitness and Nutrition News
For the study, researchers randomly assigned 134 breast-cancer survivors to a one-year progressive weight-training program or to a nonexercising control group. The women in the exercising group received gym memberships and attended supervised sessions twice a week for 13 weeks, then continued on their own. They began by using extremely light weights, typically one pound, progressing to heavier weights in one-pound increments if they experienced no swelling. Most did not. While 17 percent of the women in the control group developed lymphedema over the course of the year, only 11 percent of the women in the weight-training group did. The results were particularly striking for women who had had five or more lymph nodes removed. (Fewer lymph nodes generally means a greater risk for lymphedema, since the nodes help to drain fluids; without them, fluids build and limbs swell.) Twenty-two percent of these women in the nonexercising group developed lymphedema, compared to 7 percent who weight trained.
The researchers were excited by their findings. �We showed that weight training is safe� for breast cancer survivors, said Dr. Kathryn Schmitz, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and Abramson Cancer Center, Philadelphia, and lead author of the study (as well as the earlier experiment). �That�s an enormous breakthrough. Also, although we weren�t looking directly at whether it would be preventative� against lymphedema, �we suspect that it would be and that most� breast cancer survivors �should be doing this kind of exercise.�
The results come at a fortuitous time, because another study released this month suggests that progressive weight training in older women can confer significant and lasting benefits on mental and physical functioning. The study was a follow-up to a much-discussed experiment from last year, in which women aged 65 or over were randomly assigned to weight lifting classes either once or twice a week or to balance and toning classes for a year and then completed tests of their memory and other cognitive skills. The women who lifted weights performed notably better than those in the toning class. But researchers wondered whether the benefits would linger after the formal experiment had ended, so they returned to the women a year later, and retested them. What they found was that the women who�d lifted weights once a week in the original experiment remained significantly more active than they had been before joining the study. Presumably as a consequence, they had better cognitive functioning and had suffered 30 percent fewer falls than the women who had been part of the toning class.
Interestingly, the women who had been assigned to lift weights twice a week in the original study were now actually less active than they had been before the study and had suffered 8 percent more falls than the control group. Although it might seem that these women had disliked the twice-a-week program and subsequently quit, the researchers don�t believe that that was the case. �The participants who were in our twice-per-week program may have been less willing to switch to other forms of exercise� after the program ended,� said Dr. Teresa Liu-Ambrose,a principal investigator at the Centre for Hip Health and Mobility and Brain Research Centre at Vancouver Coastal Health and University of British Columbia, and lead author of the study. She says, from her own observations of the classes, that the women in the twice-a-week group had particularly enjoyed the weight training and when they couldn�t find any comparable programs afterward, had stopped working out altogether and their cognitive and balance skills had slipped.
The lesson is that �we need to promote strength training in older� women,� Dr. Liu-Ambrose wrote, with far more well-designed, readily accessible programs.
This is the same lesson that Dr. Schmitz sees arising from her study, with respect to breast cancer survivors. �Slowly progressive, well-supervised and medically prescribed weight training can have substantial benefits for these women,� she said, helping them to return to their former levels of activity and engagement with life, she said.
No woman should embark on a strength-training program completely on her own, though. Consult with a doctor and qualified physical therapist first.

Thanks for sharing. I do lift and I had 29 nodes removed. So far no swelling. I used to wear a preventative sleeve when working out, but found that it really bothered me and I also found out that it wasn't needed. I monitor how my arm feels because if you lift you will have some aching from lifting, so I guess the pain would be different and the pump you may get with lifting weights just wouldn't go away.
Keep up the good work... ~ Dee

Chelsea writes: "Hi there! I'm on the hunt for a pair of shoes I'm not sure exisits... waterproof flats. I'd like to avoid the rain boot booties/sneakers look and find something more in the "jelly flats" category, but that are made for rainy weather. I usually wear a steady size 9, but might wear these with socks so 9.5 would probably do, too. I'd like to find a pair in black, but a fun solid color (who doesn't love yellow rainboots?) would be great. I'll be visiting San Francisco next weekend and would like to find some by then, but since it's super short notice, I'd appreciate your help to add these to my wardrobe for next time as well. My budget is around $50, but it's flexible for the right flat. ;) Thanks so much! -Chelsea
Hi Chelsea, I'm Found of You. All these shoes claim to be waterproof, although I cannot attest to the veracity of that claim, having not personally worn them in wet weather.
1 - Crocband Flat ($35, in eleven colors)
2 - KEEN Golden MJ Casual Shoe ($58, in three colors)
3 - Crocs Silver Fox ($50, in two colors)
4 - Sloggers Garden Shoe ($22, in two colors)

Thanks so much, everyone! I didn't even think about Crocs... but my favorites from the round up are 1 and 8. The yellow is so cute! I also like the native shoes from zappos from the comments... they kinda look like converse! But I think I may just end up splurging for the pair of red rainy day shoes from J. Crew. :) Thanks again!

College Hockey:Northeastern Sweeps Providence
Ginand's Hat Trick Leads Huskies
BOSTON — The No. 5 Northeastern Huskies (17-5-2, 13-3-1 HEA) didn't have much trouble with the Providence College Friars (6-14-2, 3-10-2 HEA) in either of their two previous games this season, winning 4-0 in October and 3-1 Friday.The trend continued Saturday night, as the Huskies were victors 6-3 at Matthews Arena thanks to a six-goal output, including a hat trick from senior Ryan Ginand.
Northeastern coach Greg Cronin saw the energy he has been looking for.
"I thought we had a lot of energy. I thought we skated as well as we have all year."
The Huskies wasted no time, striking at 2:15 of the first when Ginand scored his 13th goal of season, this one on the power play. Matt Bergland was in the box for a hooking call and the Huskies set up after Joe Vitale won the faceoff. Vitale worked the puck to Wade MacLeod, who fired it to the point. Mike Hewkin passed to Ginand at the top of the circles. Ginand took two steps in on Providence goalie Alex Beaudry before firing a wrist shot high glove side.
The Huskies struck again on the power play at 7:37 when MacLeod scored his ninth goal of the season off a rebound. Ginand had the puck to Beaudry's right and took a shot on net. Beaudry was able to make the save and the puck was alone in the crease. Vitale gave it a whack that was turned away and then on the third effort MacLeod put it in the open net.
The Huskies power play had been struggling for most of the season but the past few weekends have proven successful; the Huskies have scored eight power-play goals in their last four games.
"I think you're seeing guys develop a chemistry, there is pretty good puck rotation," said Northeastern coach Greg Cronin. "Ginand is real clever on the half wall. He forces people to really respect him and it opens lanes up. Wade [MacLeod], getting him off the blue line and getting him on the goal line he's able to see plays. I actually thought we left some goals on the ice."
Providence brought the score to within one during a two-man advantage. Both Mike Hewkin and Dan Nycholat were in the box for the Huskies and it only took Providence 10 seconds to make the Huskies pay. Chris Eppich was in the slot, taking a quick feed from John Cavanagh behind the net. Eppich took the quick shot on Northeastern goalie Brad Thiessen, which he turned away, but on the rebound Matt Germain put it past the Huskies' netminder, scoring his fifth of the season.
In the second period, the Huskies increased their lead back to two goals when Dennis McCauley scored his fourth goal on a slap shot from the boards. The Huskies broke the puck out of their own zone to Chris Donovan, who deflected it back to Jim Driscoll. Driscoll passed out of the zone to a streaking Dennis McCauley, who came racing down the wing and with no options to pass to decided to shoot. Beaudry got a piece of the puck, but it rolled its way to the back of the net.
McCauley accomplished a rare feat on the goal. He not only scored, but received a penalty on the play. After the goal, McCauley shoved the trailing Friars' defensemen and was issued two minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct immediately after scoring.
Providence added a goal in the second period when Ian O'Connor came racing in on a breakaway from neutral ice and ripped a shot over the blocker of Thiessen.
Northeastern brought their lead back to three goals with less than a minute left in second period when Ginand scored his second goal of the game on a shot past a screened Beaudry.
Ginand scored at 10:16 of the third period to put the Huskies up by four goals. For Ginand, it was his 15th of the season. Ginand finished the night with four points.
"He's a goal scorer, he just wants to score goals," said Cronin of Ginand. "Sometimes I want to strangle him cause I think he makes some low percentage plays with the puck, but it's real visible how badly he wants to score goals. He lights up like a Christmas tree when he gets the puck near the scoring areas."

I am having trouble with this problem:
Suppose that you would like to use the RSA system to send the secret message $P$ to a colleague across an insecure line of communication. Assume that you have made public your personal RSA modulus $n_1$, and encryption exponent $a_1$, while keeping your decryption exponent $b_1$ secret, and that your colleague has made public his or her personal RSA modulus $n_2$ and encryption exponent $a_2$, while keeping his decryption exponent $b_2$, secret. Assume also that $n_1>n_2$.
- Explain how your message could fail.
I know that $n_1>n_2$ has something to do with the message failing but I am not sure why.
After this, I am wondering how I could devise a method for signing a message that could not fail.
Thank you for your help!

I am beyond thrilled to have my darling friend Jacqui of Baby Boy Bakery here today sharing one of her YUMMY recipes with us! Jacqui is one of those girls who you see and just go "ahhh" she is not only tall and beautiful and Oh so stylish but the SWEETEST heart warming talented gal! {yes I did just say gal}. I was so lucky to have met her and became friends with her at SNAP this year and hope to be able to spend some time with her again soon! SO here she is the talented MRS. Baby Boy Bakery….
Recently, I have fallen victim to my toddlers tantrums. Those screaming fits have taken me by storm and are rocking our world! We are dealing with them the best we know how…though most say this is the beginning of the terrible twos? (Did I mention he isn't two yet?) Anyways, I've been trying to find ways to relax and take time for myself. You know to regain composure. I've been told lavender calms the body…Naturally, I figured out how to make it edible. Below is an amazing recipe I created for a relaxing, sweet treat. Enjoy!
`Mix both the wet and dry ingredients together until a dough forms. (Dough will be dry, but should form balls)
`On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper roll out cookie dough balls. Then press them with the back of a spatula to make them flat. (Pictured Below)
My name is Jacqui and I am the author of Baby Boy Bakery. Over in my neck of the woods I'm the 'health nut' who bakes a ton of desserts. I usually eat the majority of them…sometimes more than once a day. Who's counting? (My butt probably!) However, I do have a passion for eating organic and keeping leafy greens a daily staple in my family's diet. Buuuuuut lets face it…I make desserts for a living a girl likes to indulge every so often. (Key word being often) So, I bake with only organic-all natural ingredients and call it even. I've come to realize I just like to eat. Period.

A in depth look at the events for the month that will provide you with the greatest opportunities to enhance your life and achievements. See how to handle this in the best way possible... Oluwo Philip Neimark uses ancient Yoruba African divination to determine what energies are in play for the month.
People always want to know: "What is the purpose of receiving your Icofa?" The answer is: This single hand of Orunmila, which is EXACTLY the same for either men or women, is a direct conduit to the energy of the Orisa of divination. The energy of Orunmila might be equated to the General Practioner in medicine - It is Orunmila's knowledge of all that was and all that will be, that imparts a tremendous insight and power to those connected to it. Other Orisa are more specific in their areas of energy, more like the specialists in medicine. Because Ifa is so intimately connected with balance in our lives, the energy and wisdom of Orunmila is essential to achieve this...for only this overview can place the various parts in their correct order.
As the years roll by, and they have definitely done so, I become more and more convinced that, other than dealing with those emergency issues of our life ( illness, legal problems, new job, new birth etc ), that we are best served by paying the most attention to the broader, longer range divinations that impact our lives. First and foremost is your Life Path Reading, which is the template for understanding ALL future readings with the exception of Orisa or Ifa initiation. Second, would be the monthly indications of your Icofa.
Each month gives us an accurate idea of just how we should consider, act upon, and react to the events of our everyday life. Many times these events will seem to contradict those things we are attempting to do...but such is NEVER the case. These are the implications, in a broader sense, of the meaning of events as they impact, or could impact, your everyday life.

OKLAHOMA CITY — Arizona junior first baseman Hallie Wilson has been named as one of 25 finalists for the 2014 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year, the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) of America and USA Softball announced on Wednesday. This award, which is considered the most prestigious honor in Division I women's collegiate softball, is designed to recognize the outstanding athletic achievement by female players across the country.
So far this season, Wilson is batting .402 which ranks her ninth in the Pac-12, with seven home runs and 41 RBI. In addition, Wilson ranks third in the league with a .529 on-base percentage, tenth in the conference with a .709 slugging percentage. She is also second in the Pac-12 in triples with three, and she leads the conference in runs per game, which also puts her tenth nationally.
Wilson led Arizona in batting average during each of her first two seasons as a Wildcat with figures of .372 and .346 as a sophomore and freshman, respectively, good for a career .359 batting average. The Santa Ana, Calif., native was a first-team all-Pac-12 performer last season and an all-region selection. Wilson hit seven home runs and drove in 24 runs to go along with an impressive .476 on-base percentage in 2013; she led the team with 12 doubles.
Now in its 13th year, previous recipients of the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award are UCLA catcher Stacey Nuveman (2002), Texas pitcher Cat Osterman (2003, 2005 and 2006), Florida State pitcher Jessica Van der Linden (2004), Tennessee pitcher Monica Abbott (2007), Virginia Tech pitcher Angela Tincher (2008), Washington pitcher Danielle Lawrie (2009 and 2010), Stanford shortstop Ashley Hansen (2011), and Oklahoma pitcher Keilani Ricketts (2012 and 2013).
This year's Top 25 is comprised of 12 seniors, 10 juniors and three sophomores. The student-athletes selected represent 16 NCAA Division I universities and five athletic conferences. Alabama, Arizona State, Florida State, Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon, South Alabama, Tennessee and Tulsa each have two players represented and Arizona, Baylor, Oklahoma, South Florida, Texas, UCLA and Western Illinois each have one member among the Top 25 Finalists.
Just prior to the start of post-season play, on May 7 the list will be narrowed to the Top 10 Finalists. The Top 3 Finalists will be announced May 21, while the winner of the 2014 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award will be revealed on May 27 prior to the start of the NCAA WCWS in Oklahoma City.
The USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award is voted on by coaching representatives from 11 Division I Conferences in the 15 ASA Regions, members of the media who consistently cover Division I Softball across the country as well as past winners of the award.
In addition to bestowing the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award, ASA/USA Softball is now in its 11th season of presenting the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll and the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Week, which are announced Tuesdays during the regular season. A complete history of the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Award, past Top 25 Polls and Player of the Week honorees are available at Teamusa.org/USA-Softball/College-Corner.aspx.

Brian's exclusive forecast for Baltimore, Annapolis, and northern Delmarva:
Today: Sunny and cold with a west wind from 10 to 15 with a few higher gusts. The high will be 25 to 30.
Tonight: Variable cloudiness with a low around 20.
Monday: Mostly cloudy and milder with a few rain and/or snow showers. The high will be 35 to 40. Southwest wind becoming west.
Monday Night: Becoming clear, windy, and sharply colder with a low around 12. West wind 10 to 15 with a few higher gusts.
Tuesday: Sunny but cold with a high around 17.
TuesdayNight: Clear and cold with a low near 9.
Wednesday: Continued sunny and cold with a high around 20.
The extended outlook calls for clouds and sun on Thursday with a chance of a snow shower. The low will be around 10 and the high will be near 25. Mostly sunny on Friday with a low around 15 and a high near 30. Increasing clouds on Saturday with a few rain and/or snow showers. The low will be around 20 and the high will be near 35.
Another surge of fresh arctic air has overspread the Chesapeake Bay area today. At 8 a.m. the mercury is showing 15 degrees at Baltimore, 21 at Annapolis, 21 at Cambridge, 18 at Leonardtown, 18 at Richmond, and 16 at Tappahannock. Cold high pressure will provide the area with ample sunshine today, but it will remain cold with high struggling to eclipse 25 degrees this afternoon. Occasional gusts of wind from the west will make it feel even colder. The center of high pressure will move offshore this evening as a new frontal system approaches from the west. This will create a more southerly flow and will enable temperatures to only drop into the lower 20s tonight. During the day on Monday, the frontal passage will be accompanied by cloudiness and occasional rain or snow showers. Temperatures will be relatively mild compared to our recent cold snap, with afternoon highs from the mid 30s to around 40 degrees. However, it is likely that these highs will be reached early in the day with the temperature dropping through the 30s and into the 20s during the afternoon hours. By Tuesday morning, lows will range from 10 to 15 degrees. Tuesday will be the coldest day of the week with highs from 15 to 20. Wednesday will be a few degrees warmer with readings in the lower 20s. A storm system along the southeast coast may impact the Tidewater area of Virginia with snow next Thursday, but this storm is not expected to impact the Annapolis area with anything other than a snow shower. The long-range outlook calls for a break in the cold weather by next weekend with highs above freezing, although winter is not over as the first two weeks of February will feature occasional cold snaps and more storminess than what we've experienced lately.
On the Maryland portion of Chesapeake Bay, a Small Craft Advisory is in effect through Sunday morning. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect from Sunday evening through early Monday morning. Winds on Sunday will come out of the west at 10 to 15 knots with gusts over 20 and waves from 1 to 3 feet. Winds on Sunday night will come out of the south at 10 to 15 knots with gusts over 20 and waves from 1 to 3 feet. Winds on Monday will come out of the west at 10 to 20 knots with gusts over 20 and waves from 1 to 3 feet. Visibility may be reduced in snow showers. Marine information is provided as general guidance. Boaters should always stay tuned to the latest forecasts and advisories from the National Weather Service.
The average high temperature for January 26 is 42 degrees and the average low is 24 degrees. The records at Baltimore on this date are 79 degrees in 1950 and 2 degrees in 1961. Today's sunrise will occur at 7:18 and the sunset will occur at 5:20. Weather data courtesy of the National Weather Service.

How would I go about showing this?
Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring, $A \in R_n$, and the homomorphism $f: R^n \to R^n$ defined by $f(b) = Ab$ is surjective. Show $f$ is an isomorphism.
(Edit: $R_n$ is the ring of $n\times n$ matrices.)
I'm thinking that since $f$ is surjective on $R^n \to R^n$, for every $x \in R^n$, $x = Ab$, so that $f^{-1}(x) = A^{-1}x$. And since the inverse of any element in a ring is nonzero, $\ker(f) = 0$.
I'm not terribly confident with my answer though. Thanks!

Flying Overseas After Brostrom
Hey guys! I am flying overseas next week and it will be a 9 hour flight followed by a couple hours layover and then another 2.5 hour flight. On the way back it's 2.5 hours and 10 hours. I tend to swell some anyway from high blood pressure even though I get up and walk around a pretty good bit and I do ankle pumps (well on previous trips I did) too. My question is have any of you been on long flights after recent ankle surgery where you're still in the swelling and pain phase? If so, what did you do (if anything) to keep it from swelling on the plane. I'm thinking of wrapping an ACE on it or using a compression sock, maybe using one of those instant ice packs if they're allowed in my carry-on (but I don't think they are), or bringing my own ziplocks and asking flight attendants for ice. Any tips for that and anything else to make these flights anymore comfortable? This a long time to be that swollen and in pain! Thanks!!

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Jun 24th, 2013
Running Time: 157 Min.
Director: Kevin Moore
Company: Jekyll & Hyde Productions
Distribution Companies: Buttman Magazine Choice, Evil Angel
DVD Extras: Biography(ies), Cumshot Recap, Still Gallery(ies)
Cast: Bridgette B., Ashton Pierce, Karen Fisher, Gia DiMarco, Kagney Linn Karter, Brooklyn Chase, Kevin Moore, Nikita Von James, Lolly Ink
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Big Bust, POV
For incorrigible boob men, the ultimate goal in life is to come upon buxom beauties—that is, to enjoy hot, sensuous titty-fucking climaxed by shooting creamy cum into the hot mama's fulsome, curvy cleavage. Deviant director Kevin Moore's "Titty Creampies 5" makes that erotic dream come true in seven sizzling scenes of non-stop titty tease and breast-obsessive POV action. Eight of the hottest girls in porn show off their bountiful bazooms, then wrap those juicy tits around the director's shaft—they suck, jack and massage his stiff dick with their massive jugs until he spurts his appreciation onto their chest. No guys jerking off here; it's all just huge tits smothering Kevin's hard boner and making it explode in ecstasy. If you love dumping hot cream between a lady's bouncy boobs, "Titty Creampies 5" is a load of nasty fun.
There are so many huge hooters displayed in this massive mammary treat that it is easy to miss a minor cover typo that proclaims there are eight scenes (there are seven), but there are in fact eight girls thanks to the incredible threesome in the opener with Bridgette B. and Kagney Linn Karter. Kevin Moore, as the director, is also a fortunate fella as the sole male meat in this topheavy sphere spelunking.
Russian export Nikita Von James has Moore entranced by her upper torso and her subsequent titty-fucking and chest pop. She manages to take him to completion by tit-rubbing alone, and the only reason it ends as a titty creampie is thanks to gravity: he shoots his wad straight up, missing her face, and the goo falls back to earth—or in this case, her huge mounds. This is his primary theme as well as destination for his releases.
From there, repeating the general procedure of getting off between absolutely huge chests keeps things connected to the title. Well done, you lucky bastard!

Working out on an empty stomach? Don't.
According to department of biology at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, your time at the gym will be much more effective if you have a small snack beforehand. Here are some great ways to get your nutrients in that won't sabotage your diet but will give you the energy you need to create more muscle.
- A handful of raisins. Sun-Maid makes 100 calorie raisin boxes that are perfect for snacking.
- A banana. Not only are they 100 to 115 calories, but they're high in potassium.
- Wheat toast and peanut butter. 150 calories.
- Granola Bar. 100 to 200 calories. Just keep an eye on the sugar content.
- Raw almonds. 170 calories for 1 oz. (about 22). They have a high protein count and will fill you up.
Try to eat an hour before your workout so that you are less likely to have stomach cramps.

Demon loads, nose rape and the West Palm Beach Improv
I'm sitting here on a plane headed to West Palm Beach Florida where I'm performing at the Improv comedy club this Friday and Saturday night, and I'm able to breathe freely from my nose for the first time since I was a little boy. My timing is perfect, because the guy sitting next to me smells like my dog's dick. And he's drinking, at 11 am. Without an ounce of irony I judge him silently while I pop a pot cookie in my mouth.
Actually I wouldn't really think that, because he seems like a really nice guy. I'm just being silly. He does fucking stink though, I have have a feeling he's going to get drunk.
2 weeks ago this tuesday I had surgery to repair a deviated septum, and yesterday I had the plastic splints removed from inside my nose and had my nasal passages cleaned and vacuumed.
If you've never had this procedure done, let me tell you – it's pretty fucking intense.
Just getting the surgery done was a relief as I've had a fucked up nose since I was about 5 when I smashed it falling down a flight of stairs. I've always wanted to fix it, but it was just hard to organize the down time. Last month I tore a hamstring muscle which I knew was going to take me out of action for a little while, so I figured now was the time to go ahead and get it fixed. The surgery went off without a hitch, and once they removed the packing inside my nose it really wasn't too bad.
The cleaning of the nasal passages, however, was one of the most uncomfortable things I've ever experienced in my life. I can't say it hurt too much, because the doctor sprayed the inside of my nostrils with a numbing agent called Lidocaine. It numbs the inside of your nose pretty well, but the downside is that it tastes like rotten demon sperm.
The instant the doctor stuck the tube up my nose and started pumping out that horrible liquid tears were rolling down my face and I'm gagging and coughing while this vile shit drips down my nasal passage to the back of my tongue – way in the back where it feels like you shouldn't even be tasting things.
Once the numbing kicked in, the doctor started the cleaning process which made Satan's loads feel like they were just a warmup act.
I couldn't exactly see what he was doing, but he was using these forceps to stretch open my nostrils, and then he was sticking various instruments in there and cutting out gigantic blood clots that could best be described as something you might expect to find in Amy Winehouse's toilet after a weekend bender.
Big, thick, black clots that looked like aborted rat fetuses.
He would cut and clean, and scrape the clots off the wall, and then stuff a long metal vacuum up there to get all the loose blood and mucus. And when I say up there, I really mean UP there. It went so far back I didn't even know that there was a tunnel back there. I was shocked. It was like he found a secret cave in my head. The vacuum had a long metal tip that looked like a car antenna, (remember those?) and he stuck this fucking thing way up my nostrils past my eyebrows. I could hear the liquid, sucking sounds both outside my head, and far more disturbingly – inside it too. There's something extra freaky about hearing a biological, liquid, suction sound when it's coming from in between your eyeballs.
Occasionally it would go too far and the vacuum would poke what felt like the wall to my brain. Not even like a wall, more like a membrane that seemed about as thick as a truck stop condom, and this pokey little car antenna vacuum thing would jam into it and stick onto the back wall just like when the pay-per-suck hose at the self service car wash gets stuck on your floor mats. I would even hear that same high-pitched vacuum protest noise in my skull when it happened, and every time it stuck up there I clenched up like my asshole just got tasered.
The whole procedure took over an hour, and every 15 minutes or so he would dose me back up with more Lidocaine when it was obvious that it's magical pain-reducing spell was wearing off.
We had a nice little system going, where he would poke my brain, I would clench the chair like I was on the space shuttle reentering the atmosphere, and he would ask,
"More hot, bitter demon loads?"
"(coughing and gagging) Yes, please…"
As the slippery Lidocaine tube went up my raw, post-surgery nose, all I could think of was Satan's dick – gray and slimy like a dead eel – shooting billions of individual evil sperm cells up there, each one of them looking like a microscopic version of the chest burster from the movie "Alien." I envisioned them roaring down my throat, screaming in agony and ecstasy as they alternately fucked each other and eat each other alive.
I'm gagging and coughing, and as he's pumping this vile shit up my nose, my head is pressed against the back of the chair and I'm imagining that the head rest is the Satan's big, hairy, 6 fingered paw holding the back of my head like a selfish boyfriend getting his nut off. Thankfully, Satan is a two pump chump. 5, 6 pumps at the most and I'm leaking tears like a bitch, and numb as an old whore's clit.
"OK? Back to the nose rape?"
"(gagging and coughing) Back to the nose rape, please."
The next hour was a repeat performance, with; "Demon loads" opening the show, followed by "nose rape," your middle act, and then, "asshole taser brain vacuum," your headliner.
There's 3 shows in a row, and each show has a two violent sneeze minimum. I mean sneezes so violent I thought I was going to blast a hole through the universe and blow my blood and snot into other dimensions.
Much like at a comedy club, if there's 3 shows in a night, by the time the final show rolls around the audience is usually a fucking mess.
Just like the drunk people who worked all day and are falling asleep in the audience at a midnight show on a Friday night, when that third "asshole taser brain vacuum" act kicked in, as much as I try to see the humor in everything, I really didn't believe that anything could ever be funny at that moment.
Finally, like all things, eventually it ended, and when it did, I was on a spectacular Lidocaine and endorphin high. I walked out of that doctor's office loving every person in the whole fucking world. I was so happy that my "demon load," "nose rape," "asshole taser brain vacuum" loop had ended that I was just really appreciating everything.
No bullshit, I was in the elevator afterwards, and I was thinking, "Wow. What a nice elevator. It has a 3000 lb capacity? That's pretty impressive." I was LOVING that fucking elevator. I wanted to buy one just like it.
I got a diet coke from the pharmacy downstairs, and when I stepped outside, cracked it open and sipped it in the warm sun I felt like a P.O.W. getting released from the Hanoi Hilton.
It's kind of amazing that sometimes it takes something shitty to make us truly appreciate how great and enjoyable this life can be.
