Tuesday, August 20, 2013
You know how the fashion press declares red lipstick to be in style again every few years? The same thing seems to happen with black gems. I'm pretty sure I've already sent out "black gems" selections to editors and store buyers twice since starting my business in 2005. It's clearly time for a third mailing because, yesterday, WWD reported, "Jewelers are showing their dark sides, using a range of black stones — onyx, spinel, diamonds and sapphires — to create a refined sense of drama and intrigue."
You want black gems? I've got them. There's onyx …
… spinel …
… and diamonds.
Want more? Here's the full list of my black-gem designs.
Black diamonds
Meanwhile, She Finds says weapon-shaped jewelry is hot. Naturally, I've got dangerous designs for you. The most dangerous-looking one is my Matilda sword necklace: an 18K white gold sword that can be pulled out of its 18K yellow gold scabbard. Here it is sheathed …
… and here it is unsheathed.
The matching Matilda earrings don't come with a scabbard, but they're great candidates if you want to hop on the single earring trend I wrote about on Saturday. They were styled that way in some of the photos in a huge spread in W Magazine last year.
Last night, I wore one Matilda sword earring with one middle finger emoji earring and one of my special Skylar Grey double-ax earrings. (I have three ear piercings.) Speaking of Skylar and her double-ax logo, I have single-ax stud earrings available. You can get them in 18K yellow gold …
… or silver.
I can also do custom orders for ax earrings (and other studs) in 18K rose gold, 18K white gold or gold-plated silver. Holla at me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com if you are interested in one of those options. And if you have any other dark and dangerous jewelry requests, feel free to send them my way. Maybe I'll get inspired and add one of your ideas to my line!
8 Responses to "Dark and Dangerous Jewelry for Fall"
Oh I like the Clemence necklace – going to send you an email re: NYC plans x
The skull ring is my fantasy piece of jewelry! Sometimes, I sit and stroke it on the screen. TMI? And the Matilda necklace…stunning. I might need a "dangerous" roller skate made for my derby anniversary.
The jewelry is fabulous. I love the skull locket.
I wish the black skull buttons I used on the plaid Harris Tweed jacket this season could have been Wendy Brandes onyx!

February Bee Notes
I can tick off one New Year's resolution – I have a hive scales in place! It was designed and made here by our carpenter and is a very simple design using an upturned scales – the numbers reflected in a mirror. The hive sits directly on top of the upturned scales.
The most difficult thing was to find one of the old style scales. A digital scales is hard to read as the numbers would be upside down and there is the issue of switching it on and off! I had to buy a digital scales and swop it with someone for the older variety.
The hive scales provides lots of useful information – you can measure the honey coming in during a flow or the stores being used in the winter months. It helps you determine when a honey flow begins, and ends. A sudden drop in weight, of maybe three pounds, would tell you that a colony has probably swarmed.
Record the weight at the same time each day so you can get accurate comparisons. It is best done at dusk as all the foragers will be home but then it maybe difficult to read the scales!
A comment in last months Irish Beekeeping Journal was interesting and explained something that I experienced last summer.
At the end of August I came across what I was fairly sure was a queen less colony or two.
They had drones well into September and no sign of brood in late August or early September. As a drastic measure I decided to unite one of these to a queen right colony. When I went to reduce them some days later, I discovered a beautiful brood pattern in the supposedly queenless colony! A big mistake!!
An explanation is that the queen had stopped laying during the latter part of August as there was no nectar available. Once the ivy started to yield pollen and nectar she began laying again
This tendency of our native bee to taper off or even stop laying for a while during August gives it an advantage.
This break in laying is also useful as it provides for more effective results in varroa treatment as no mites are protected in sealed brood cells.
This trait is not shared by imported queens who continue to lay heavily only to provide a bee population well in excess of requirement at that time of year and safe hiding places for many mites sealed in cells.
Another New Year's resolution is to be better prepared for Anaphylactic shock. I have seen this happen to two novice beekeepers and it is quite frightening. It can happen after one or several stings. You can have been stung before and have had no reaction and suddenly collapse and loose consciousness.

Lately the world has much to worry the masses over. Most people know it only from minute glances at the news channels. It only takes a second to see bad reports covering everything from guerrilla wars, ethnic cleansing, arms races, earthquakes, world poverty, and of course the largest oil spill in human history. However, course there have been beautiful shining star examples of hope and love in the past few years of humanities compassion for each another. Just a few examples are when Americans pulled together after the September 11 World Trade Center bombings, the humanitarian aid which poured in after the countries after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the aid which reached the Haitian's after that countries 2010 earthquake, the global effort to contain the pandemics of SARS and H1N1. In the past few years, we have seen brilliant minds come together to drive scientific progress toward cures for HIV/AIDS, cancer and in the elimination of Malaria.
However, it seems the world has always been pulled toward both good and bad. We tend to act like double-edged swords toward ourselves. If you were brave and you asked someone would you rather help someone in need or hurt them, do good or bad of course, a rather redundant question the answer would be something along the lines of, "Well, I would never hurt someone, at least not intentionally."
Then why is there so much damn suffering in the world? Why do people hurt each other; tribal wars in Somalia, with Apartheid in South Africa, the crisis in the Balkans, landmines that still blow up little children in Vietnam, the ethnic cleansing in Darfur, the regime of North Korea where death by starvation is commonplace, or the wholesale annexation of Tibet by China? Why do people start wars, commit fraud, create massive Ponzi schemes steal or just plain hinder progress?
One of the many reasons might be how easy we are swayed by popularity, group pressures, the need to be wanted, the need to succeed, the wants of pride and wealth. We think either we need to go along or we want to in order to get. What if we all were to say no to following the crowd? What about that stuff that is deep inside us? What drives our soul, our ethical fortitude? Let me explain. How strongly do you believe in what you believe and why? Do you know what you believe before making certain actions; before you have to decide to do or not to do them?
Ask someone what he or she believe and they will usually respond by mentioning their faith, religion or philosophical mindset. They may mention they are Christian, Atheist, naturalist, evolutionist, Pagan, Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, Hindi, Islamic, Buddhist, Taoist and the list can go on. Maybe we would not have so many conflicts if we could all realize that although religions, faiths and philosophies differ in many ways, each of these have as their foundation fundamental ethical truths that we can all agree on and make decisions on. If we believe these as truth then we can make good ethical decisions together. The other option is gridlock, strife and turmoil. We have all seen where that leads this world. If you have a faith or prescribe to a religion, a type of ethical lifestyle, how accurately do you adhere to its principles, its morals and its rules? If you are an atheist what moral laws do you align your actions to? I mean how closely do any one of us follow what we believe when we make everyday decisions? Can we voice our beliefs in words? What disturbs me is the answers to any one of these questions, because more likely they will be pretty vague. You cannot compromise with others if you do not know what you are willing to give up, what you are not willing to give up and what you are willing to take. You might get a muted response to the above questions, something like, "Well I just like to do good things for people and be a good person?" Ah, but what is good? How would you define it? Don't lie, don't steal, don't cheat, don't murder and so on.
Pin this dilemma on someone and you might understand my point: What if you pose this hypothetical situation to deal with to someone: It is World War II and a Nazi SS troop is going house to house looking for concealed Jews. You have hidden a Jewish family in the attic of your house. An SS soldier enters your house and asks, "Where have you hidden the Jews?" Would you lie and say, "I have not hidden anyone." Alternatively, would you tell the truth knowing that the family would face certain death at the hands of the Nazis? Most people, including me would lie to save the hidden family from the SS soldier. Does that mean I or we advocate lying? -No, not really. Okay for conditional lies? Then well, how conditional? Should you lie to save your job? What if you had to lie to prevent yourself going to jail?
In society today we seem so much more in a permanent state of chaos, upside down and constantly changing, if we all had a more unified view of what is morally right and morally wrong it would bring this world a bit closer together. Can we lessen the polarization between us all that apparently has caught us by surprise in the last twenty years? Thought common understanding I think so. Are there truths we can all agree on and act on? Can this world gather around small truths so we can agree to stop fighting each other, stop ourselves from all this war? I believe we can. In the second installment of this series I will cover major moral philosophical theories based on two of my favorite books on morality:
The Elements of Moral Philosophy by James Rachels
Biomedial Ethics by Thomas Mappes and David Grazia
What does this have to do with our Children? Would you want to raise your children in a world constantly at war with itself? Would you want your grandchildren to grow up in a world full of disease and hunger?

High Steaks
The Editors | Photo: Courtesy of SideDoor | July 8, 2014
First, there was fire. Then came steak. Here, a round-up of new palaces of prime.
1. 437 Rush
This classic Italian go-to just off the Mag Mile has whisked away its white tablecloths and emerged with a sleek, contemporary look. The 30-ounce prime rib-eye chop ($59), we are pleased to report, remains unchanged. 437 N. Rush St., 312.222.0101
2. GT Prime
Chef Giuseppe Tentori was apparently not satisfied with his dominion over the sea at GT Fish & Oyster. Sometime early next year, in a new spot, he plans to rule the land as well. Stay tuned.
3. River Roast
Is there nothing Tony Mantuano can't do? This summer, he and his pal chef John Hogan (see "Chefs to Watch" in this month's cover story) are opening this waterside palace. 315 N. LaSalle St., 312.822.0100
4. RPM Steak
Expect everything from Japanese Kobe to American wagyu at this forthcoming River North spot, an offshoot inspired by the success of steak at its bustling sibling, RPM Italian. 60 W. Kinzie St.
5. SideDoor
"We are a roasted meat emporium," says chef Vic Newgren, of this Lawry's neighbor. "We're not doing foams." Which sounds exactly like something we want the man cooking our meat to say. 100 E. Ontario St., 312.787.6768

Listening to Space Dimension Controller's The Pathway to Tiraquon 6 for the first time this week, I was reminded how much storytelling affects how I perceive music. There's plenty of great tunes and releases who don't utilise this path, and for good reason, as a tacked on narrative quickly becomes corny or a false representation of the work. This will only serve to hurt the music's intentions, whether for the dancefloor or the bedroom...the heart and soul of the tunes don't reside in the story, and the listener can hear this small but important fact.
Take a trip with our 22nd Worth the Wax mixtape this week
Some of our favorite music lacks narrative but makes this up in a variety of ways. But for many of us out there, including myself, the highest praise for the music we love most inevitably circles back to an overarching concept that fits the audio so perfectly, we're left in awe at the ambitions of the artist and the scope of that which they've created. The ability of a song or album to take us to another place, to focus our consciousness and attention not on the stimuli present in everyday existence, but in another realm, world, dimension! - that is the stuff of legend, and it becomes personal in the mind of the listener.
The prescence of other planets like ours, and the imminent possibility that we will meet foreign beings as technology continues to propell us deeper into our galaxy, should not interfere with any creative imaginings of other life in the cosmos. After all, there are plenty of strong narratives right here on Earth, and the question of whether these stories are real or fake does not detract from their power as a work of art. But what they all have in common is that transcendental capacity to remove our mental selves from the physical, to instill a sense of exploration and adventure even when we do not have the "real" world means to do so in our own lives.
It's the stories we'll remember when we're too old to move without crumbling to pieces, not the kick, the guitar, the synth. Our physical capabilities wane, but the brainwaves and their recollection of that time you went somewhere else, somewhere only you could go...it's about as real as it gets.
What are your favorite titles that transport you outside the screen, to alien worlds? Speak up now, don't be shy.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
by Ken Kesey
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Part I, Chapter Three Summary
- While McMurphy looks around at the day room, Chief describes how the room is ordered, socially-speaking.
- The Acutes move around a lot and tell jokes and spy on each other.
- The Chronics aren't there to get fixed, but simply to keep them off the streets. Chief acknowledges that he's a Chronic.
- The Chronics are further divided into the Walkers and the Vegetables. Chief's a Walker.
- Some people who are now Chronics used to be Acutes but they got mangled in the Shock Shop—electroshocked so badly that their brains are now fried. Ellis is one of those.
- Ruckly was also an Acute who became a Chronic after they mangled him another way. Chief describes what happened to Ruckly, so we can figure out that the guy was lobotomized. A lobotomy is a surgical operation on the frontal lobe of the brain that was used back then to treat mental illness.
- Colonel Matterson is the oldest Chronic. He's a terrified cavalry soldier from the First War.
- Chief has been in the ward the longest, though, ever since the Second World War. Big Nurse has been working at the asylum even longer than Chief has been there.
- The Chronics and the Acutes don't mingle. The Acutes claim it's because of the Chronics' stench, but the real reason is they're scared they'll end up that way too.
- McMurphy figures out right away that he's an Acute. He heads over there to greet everybody but he makes them nervous with his laughter. Finally, he realizes he's making them upset and he starts telling them they don't seem crazy to him.
- He asks Billy Bibbit who is the "bull goose loony" here. In other words, he wants to know who's top dog.
- Billy stutters that he himself isn't, but he's in line for the spot.
- McMurphy says that's cool and all, but he thinks he'll take over that job, thank you very much.
- So McMurphy asks Billy to take him to their leader so they can figure out who's going to be boss around here.
- Billy turns to Harding and says he guesses that Harding would be the man McMurphy is seeking.
- Harding is president of the Patient's Council and he always brags about his sexy wife.
- Harding looks at the ceiling and asks if this "gentleman" has an appointment.
- Billy asks McMurphy if he has an appointment.
- McMurphy tells Billy that the hospital isn't big enough for both him and Harding. Besides, he's used to being top dog wherever he goes. So either Harding meets him "man to man" or he's yellow and should leave town by sunset.
- Harding tells Billy that this "young upstart" (meaning McMurphy) should know that he will meet him in the main hall at high noon and they'll settle it once and for all.
- McMurphy tells Billy that he should warn Harding that he's so crazy that he even voted for Eisenhower.
- Well, Harding tells Billy to tell McMurphy that he's so crazy he voted for Eisenhower twice.
- To one-up Harding, McMurphy instructs Billy to tell Harding that he's so crazy he expects to vote for Eisenhower again this November.
- Harding says, " I take off my hat."
- Everybody knows McMurphy has won.
- The Acutes wander over to learn about McMurphy. He tells them how he's been in and out of jail here, there, and everywhere. Then he goes over to meet the Chronics.
- None of the Chronics understand what he's up to, but McMurphy keeps insisting that it's important he meet everybody and know the men he'll be dealing with.
- When he reaches Chief—strapped in his chair in the corner—McMurphy leans back to laugh. Suddenly, Chief is scared that the reason McMurphy's laughing is because he realizes Chief's deaf-and-mute act is just that—an act.
- McMurphy asks what's his story and Billy Bibbit calls across the room and answers for Chief that his name is Chief Bromden but everybody calls him Chief Broom because the orderlies always make him sweep.
- The patients start discussing Chief. Harding says he's a Columbia Indian and that his father was the tribal leader. Also, he's deaf.
- McMurphy leans down to ask, "Is that right? Are you deaf?"
- Billy tells the new leader that Chief's deaf and dumb.
- Well, he can still shake my hand, can't he? McMurphy says, holding out his hand. Chief shakes his hand.
- Then Nurse Ratched comes in and calls "Mr. McMurry" over. She says that she understands he's being difficult about taking his shower, but everyone is required to follow the rules.
- McMurphy and the Big Nurse look each other over and size each other up.
- McMurphy points out that the only time that people remind him to follow the rules is when they expect him to break them.
- Then he lets go of Chief's hand.

There are many places to go Skiing, but few compare Beaver Creek. Beaver Creek is like the "master planned community" that other ski resorts look to for how to build their own. Here are some reasons why picking Beaver Creek is a GREAT idea for your next ski trip:
1) Skiing The Mountain:
A delightfully pristine perfect mix of extremely tough and easy runs. Which makes everyone in your family or group beyond happy. Isn't that what a vacation is all about?
2) Ski School:
Ski School is what teaches your child to ski. You want the best right? Every day the instructors would spend time talking about how each child did as well as talking direct to the parents to let them know specifics. Very impressive ski instructors.
3) Ski Girls Rock Ski Camps Lyndsey Vonn.
Got Girls? If you are traveling with a young girl who is signing up for ski school, take a look at "Ski Girls Rock." It was created by Lindsey Vonn because she wanted a place where girls could learn to ski without being competitive with boys! And where girls could learn other 'life' skills just from skiing with other females! And... If you book your daughter at the end of the season…Lyndsey just may show up for lunch and photos! Learn more by clicking this link: http://www.beavercreek.com/ski-and-snowboard-school/childrens-ski-and-snowboard-school/ski-girls-rock.aspx
4) Women's Tour - Hello Wives With An Impatient Skiing Husband:
Got Wives? Beaver Creek has a Women's Tour (they call it a tour, it's not a tour, it's a group of whatever women just happen to show up that day. Many who come are strangers...when they start! By the end, they are all friends!) The group formed because some women don't always enjoy skiing with their husbands. Sorry Mr. Hubby who reads this! What a brilliant idea, huh? (Ha...again, see the first paragraph of this page!!) They meet on certain days/times and travel up and down the mountain in their own group - and NO you don't need to know anyone or have a secret pass word, all you do is show up. Just ask the Beaver Creek Staff about this tour and they'll direct you where to go or learn more.
5) Haymaker Tubing:
If you have kids under 12 – Haymaker Tubing (located on Beaver Creek Mt) is great! Kids over 12 will have fun too, only the 'run' isn't as long as most 'older kids' would like. The guides sending you down the run do make it fun and will either push your or spin you on your way (see video attached to watch this happen!). Then you take your tube and head back up on a....wait for it....on a moving walkway! Yes. The first time I've seen such a thing and let me tell you, after visiting many tubing places and knowing the climb back up would be tough, I was beyond thrilled to see Beaver Creek (ever the innovators) install such a luxury (ok lazy) machine! Cause yes, the run is short, but doing it over and over with this walkway makes the experience so much better! But don't let it fool you. It still is exhausting. So if you plan on going out that night for dinner or well...anything…be ready for tired kids. They have little tiny tubes for the little kids, and bigger ones for the bigger guys. See? Beaver Creek has thought of everything!
6) Ice Skating and Fire Pits:
Every day from 12noon till 9pm, you can go ice skating in the village! So if your kids aren't ready to lay down after a day of skiing…take them here!. Rent skates and go around to fun music in a beautiful location! And if you aren't skating, there are firepits next to the rink for you to relax, watch and feel toasty on your wonderful vacation.
7) Beaver Creek Restaurants That are a MUST:
Blue Moose Pizza (yummy pizza and great prices)
Beano's Cabin, a unique dinning experience which involves riding in a sleigh to even get to the restaurant!
8) Beaver Creek Hotels are Close To The Mountain
The Beaver Creek Park Hyatt is the closest you can get to all the activities and it's a fantastic hotel. Go click back on the link in the previous sentence to see a video and read about The Beaver Creek Park Hyatt.
The Osprey is steps away from the lift. Steps. Okay, I think you can crawl! It's awesome! I've never stayed anywhere that close to a lift and if you are an avid skier and have never had that experience either, don't miss the opportunity to stay here! The Osprey
**Beaver Creek Extras
Right next to the ice skating pond is the Beaver crepes. This could go up by restaurants, but even after you have a full meal, after smelling these, you can still add it to your tummy! Why? You can SMELL them all over Beaver Creek square. So if you don't want one…avoid the ice rink….or bribe the kids, "If you eat well and behave....you'll get a treat." Trust me....I milked that one nightly for a week!
Bottom Line: Beaver Creek (even if you don't ski) is an adventure in doing a vacation "Better."

A shot in the dark here but I'm in the market for a CD player. I have just changed direction from SS to Valve's, SS kit for sale soon.
If you had a budget of £500 ish for a CD player second hand what would you recommend based on what you have owned or heard.
Music taste is varied but would prefer something that has grip on the bottom end, clear vocals and not too harsh on the top end.

We the subscribers of Hulu+ demand the removal of advertisements from the Hulu+ service. As shown by other companies like Netflix a paying user base does not need nor require advertisements to sustain the business providing the content.
We the paying subscribers of Hulu+ have paid for content and expect a better quality service as such. We also want to note that because we pay for the shows we are not in turn downloading those shows from torrent or other P2P services which do not contain such advertisements. This is important to note because we have for years heard the cries of the entertainment industry about how pirating is causing the downfall of the industry. In this case all we are asking for is to meet your paying clients half way and let those who pay enjoy the convenience of not being forced to watch advertisements.
In closing we would like to take the first step and provide some additional ideas in which we may all benefit. Each bullet goes from the most desirable outcome to the least.

STANFORD, Calif. – Stanford hits the road for the fourth time in five weeks when it heads to Utah this weekend for a three-game series.
The series begins Thursday at 2 p.m. (PT), continues Friday at 2 p.m. and concludes Saturday at 11 a.m. The games on Thursday and Friday will be televised on the Pac-12 Network and Saturday's game will be streamed online.
The Cardinal went 1-2 last weekend against No. 10/10 Washington. The Cardinal fell 7-0 in the series opener but responded with a dominating performance in game two, defeating the Huskies 13-5 in six innings. Stanford couldn't keep the momentum going in the finale, dropping a 11-2 decision in five innings.
Cassandra Roulund and Hanna Winter played well for the duration of the Washington series, making multiple highlight defensive plays and leading the Cardinal in batting. Roulund hit a team-best .429 (3-for-7) with two RBI and a walk. Winter finished the weekend going 2-for-6 (.333) with one double, three walks and an RBI.
Kylie Sorenson (3-3) picked up the victory in the circle for Stanford in game two, allowing two runs on two hits, striking out three and allowing one walk in 4.1 innings.
Game times, live statistics and results are available via GoStanford.com.
• Utah enters the weekend 18-19 overall and 3-11 in Pac-12 play. The Utes are 2-3 in their past five games, falling in three consecutive games at Arizona State last weekend and picking up two victories Monday at Utah Valley.
• Utah is led offensively by Kate Dickman who is batting .414 and leads the team in hits (55), doubles (12), total bases (80) and slugging percentage (.602). Four additional Utes are batting over .300, including Hannah Flippen (.392), Kendal Bergman (.333), Anissa Urtez (.317) and Mariah Ramirez (.302). Bridget Castro leads the team with five home runs.
• Kayce Nieto (8-11) has seen a majority of the time in the circle for Utah and holds a 4.88 ERA with 42 strikeouts in 104.2 innings. Nieto has held the opposition to a .322 batting average. Sammy Cordova (7-5) has contributed significant time at pitcher, throwing 83.2 innings and recording a 3.76 ERA. Mariah Ramirez (3-3) holds a 4.77 ERA in 54.1 innings.
• Stanford is 11-2 all-time against Utah and swept last year's series in convincing fashion, winning each game by a run-rule decision. The Cardinal opened the 2013 series with an 8-0 victory in six innings, won the second game 12-0 in five innings and punctuated the weekend with a 9-1 victory in the finale.
• Stanford will play host to Santa Clara on Tuesday before welcoming No. 1/1 Oregon for a three-game set. Friday's game against Oregon will be televised on ESPNU.
• Stanford is 1-3 in series-openers against Pac-12 opponents this season, with three of the four contests producing a thrilling result. The Cardinal defeated California 14-13, fell at Arizona State 16-15 in nine innings, dropped an 18-12 decision at Arizona and lost 7-0 to Washington.
• The Cardinal scored six runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to earn the comeback victory against California (March 14). Trailing by six runs entering the top of the seventh at Arizona State, Stanford scored eight runs to take the lead. The Sun Devils scored two runs in the bottom half of the inning to send the game into extras, where it eventually earned the win (March 28).
• Six Cardinal players combined for 11 hits and Stanford held the lead through the middle portion of the game, but Arizona capitalized on two grand slams to earn the victory (April 4).
• Stanford took leads into the bottom of the seventh inning in its series finales at Arizona State and Arizona but was unable to hold on for the victory. The Cardinal led the first six-and-a-half innings at Arizona State and took a 5-2 lead into the bottom of the seventh before the Sun Devils rallied for five runs – including a walk-off three-run home run – to claim a comeback victory.
• Bessie Noll delivered a solo home run in the top of the seventh to put Stanford up 3-2 at Arizona, but the Wildcats responded with a run in the bottom half of the inning to send the game to extras. After Stanford was unable to capitalize on a bases-loaded situation in the top of the eighth, Arizona's Katiyana Mauga delivered a walk-off two-run home run to take the victory and sweep the series.
• Stanford's five-member freshman class has made significant contributions throughout the season:
• Madi Schreyer (17-9) has been strong in the circle, holding a 3.10 ERA with 138 strikeouts and 78 earned runs in 176.0 innings pitched. She has held opponents to a .244 batting average, and of the 172 hits she has allowed, only 34 have gone for extra bases.
• Kylie Sorenson has been outstanding at shortstop and leads the team in batting average (.375), doubles (14), walks (33), slugging percentage (.616) and on-base percentage (.520) on the season. She ranks second on the team in RBI (33) and third in hits (41). She has become Stanford's second pitcher due to injuries and has pitched 40.2 innings, notching a 3-3 record with one save and a 6.37 ERA.
• Bessie Noll joined the team from Tokyo, Japan, with three summers of softball experience and an elite background in baseball. Noll has transitioned nicely on The Farm, batting .315 with 21 RBI, 32 runs, 7 doubles and three home runs.
• Lauren Bertoy and Carley Hoover have also made strong contributions this season. Bertoy has primarily played at second base and pinch-hit, while Hoover has made five appearances in the circle.
• While Madi Schreyer has been carrying a majority of the load in the circle, Stanford's pitching options have been limited due to injuries. This has led to a "pitching by committee" situation in which four Cardinal players that typically do not pitch, have spent time in the circle. Infielder Kylie Sorenson, utility player Kayla Bonstrom, designated player Tylyn Wells and infielder Erin Ashby have each seen innings at pitcher.
• The pitching situation has caused lineup changes in the infield with each starting infielder logging time at two or three positions during a weekend. Despite the regular shifting, the Cardinal has produced some outstanding defensive plays and holds a .957 fielding percentage.
• Leah White has been one of Stanford's most consistent players in all areas this season. The junior is second on the team with a .359 batting average, leads the team with 13 stolen bases and is second in hits (46) and fourth in on-base percentage (.446). She has been terrific defensively, starting every game in left field and recording a .969 fielding percentage.
• In conference play, White leads Stanford in batting (.375), hits (15), doubles (4), triples (1) and total bases (21). She is second on the team in RBI (11). She boasts a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage against Pac-12 competition.
• Erin Ashby and Kayla Bonstrom have played a majority of the time at second base and first base, respectively, and heated up offensively just in time for conference play. In the final preseason tournament before Pac-12 competition, Ashby went 9-for-17 (.529) with six RBI, two doubles and a triple over six games. Ashby's triple was a walk-off, giving Stanford a 3-2 victory over UC Davis.
• In conference play, Ashby is third on the team with a .367 batting average. Ashby leads the team with 13 walks, a .568 on-base percentage and a .667 slugging percentage.
• Bonstrom is tied for second on the team with 11 RBI. She is the reigning Pac-12 Freshman of the Year.
• Stanford has been electric on the base paths this year, stealing 48 bases in 53 attempts (91 percent). Leah White has swiped 13 bags in 14 tries, while Hanna Winter has taken 12 bases in 14 attempts. Tylyn Wells has been successful in 11 of 12 stolen base attempts.
• Cassandra Roulund – or "Boo" as she's known by teammates, coaches and fans – is third on the team in RBI (30) and home runs (3), third in doubles (8), and fourth in total bases (55).
• Hanna Winter has been outstanding defensively this season, leading the team with 107 assists and holding a .950 fielding percentage. While Winter has spent a majority of time at third base, she has made multiple appearances at shortstop. She has started every game of her collegiate career at second base, third base or shortstop.
• Jessica Plaza was one of 24 players selected to participate at the 2014 USA Softball Women's National Team Selection Camp on June 9-12. The sophomore catcher will compete for a spot on the 17-player USA Softball Women's World Championship roster that will compete for the International Softball Federation World Championship in Haarlem, Netherlands, this August. The final selection for the 17-player roster will be announced June 22.
• Plaza earned a silver medal with the U.S. Junior National Team at the 2013 International Softball Federation Junior Women's World Championship.
• Sophomore Kayla Bonstrom was one of 50 players in the nation named to the USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year award watch list. She was one of six sophomores included on the list that consists of players from 36 NCAA Division I schools and 12 athletic conferences. Bonstrom is one of 12 Pac-12 players included on the list.
• Stanford had eight players selected to all-conference teams in 2013. Five of those players return for the 2014 campaign, including Kayla Bonstrom, Hanna Winter, Cassandra Roulund, Leah White and Jessica Plaza.
• Stanford was picked to finish fifth in the Pac-12 Preseason Coaches Poll. Arizona State and Washington tied for the top spot, while Oregon was picked third and UCLA fourth. Arizona was selected to place sixth, followed by California at seventh, and Oregon State and Utah tying for eighth.
• The Cardinal finished the 2013 season with a 39-21 overall record – the 17th consecutive winning season under head coach John Rittman. Stanford finished fourth in the Pac-12 with a 13-11 mark, and was 26-10 against nonconference opponents. The Cardinal competed in its 16th straight NCAA Tournament, concluding its season with a 2-2 result at the Lincoln Regional.
• In his 18th season at the helm of the Cardinal program, head coach John Rittman is one of the winningest coaches in collegiate softball, boasting a 745-350-3 (.680) career record. Since stepping onto The Farm in July 1996, he has coached the team to 17 consecutive winning seasons, 16 straight NCAA Tournament appearances and 13 40-win seasons. Under Rittman, Stanford claimed a share of its first conference championship and made two appearances in the Women's College World Series (2001, 2004).

Speaking up for the Polar Regions, Presentation to the University of Waterloo
28 Mar 2012 - 28 Mar 2012Interested in learning about the polar regions, sustainable development and the Earth Summit?
St.Paul's University College, University of Waterloo
St.Paul's University College, University of Waterloo
'Speaking Up for the Polar Regions' is a talk that draws much needed attention to the emerging challenge of sustainable development in the Polar Regions. The Polar Regions are crucial to global sustainable development, but have received very little attention in the lead-up to the Rio+20 Conference, also known as the Earth Summit.
Speaking at this event is Andrew Wong, the Founder and Executive Director of the Students on Ice Alumni Delegation (www.soidelegation.com), an international youth delegation that will be attending the Rio+20 Earth Summit. This delegation is comprised of youth under 24 who have visited the Polar Regions and are committed to their protection. Joining Andrew is another member of the delegation, Fatin Chowdhury.
Andrew will speak about the importance of the Polar Regions in the context of sustainable development, threats facing these regions, and opportunities to promote sustainable development of the poles. He will speak from personal experience having experienced the Arctic firsthand in 2010.
This event aims to raise awareness about the unique sustainable development challenges facing the Polar Regions and to inspire youth and civil society to commit to their protection. Attendees will even be able to take concrete action during the event!

According to CBC Sports, Canadian Olympic gold medalist Martin St. Louis scored one of his most emotional goals of his National Hockey League career on Sunday. While playing for the New York Rangers, St. Louis opened the scoring on Mother's Day as the Rangers defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1 to tie their Metropolitan Division Final at three games apiece.
St. Louis's goal was emotional because his mother France passed away late last week. However, St. Louis, who won the gold medal for Canada at the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, decided to play game five on Friday and game six on Sunday. St. Louis's presence has seemed to spark the Rangers.
The Rangers dominated the last two games of the series including a game five victory on Friday by a score of 5-1. St. Louis did not register a point in the fifth game, but the 38 year old veteran who can play both left and right wing at a very high level, provided strong leadership for a Rangers team looking to win their first Stanley Cup since 1994.
St. Louis now has three goals and four assists for seven points in 13 playoff games. The native of Laval, Quebec had his father and sister in the stands at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, when he was in the right place at the right time at 3:34 of the first period. Derek Stepan and Anton Stralman registered assists on St. Louis's goal. With the win, the Rangers force a game seven Tuesday evening in Pittsburgh.
Meanwhile in the Central Division Final, Canadian Olympic gold medalist Jonathan Toews of Winnipeg, Manitoba scored the game winning goal as the Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Minnesota Wild 2-1.
Toews, who won the gold medal for Canada at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver and the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, scored from Marian Hossa and Canadian Olympic gold medalist Patrick Sharp of Winnipeg, Manitoba at 4:33 of the third period. With the win, the Blackhawks now lead the series 3-2.

|Vandals to run at Dellinger
MOSCOW, Idaho – For a second consecutive meet, Idaho men's and women's cross country will face competition on a national scale and this weekend, the schedule takes the Vandals to the Dellinger Invitational, hosted by the University of Oregon.
The men's 8000m race features No. 3 BYU and No. 23 Oregon, while the women's race features No. 3 Oregon and both competitions feature regionally-ranked competition, so there's no question about the level of talent the Vandals will face in their third race of the season.
"Oregon is ranked really well, so we know their girls are really good and they're going to be on their 'A' game," Idaho junior Hannah Kiser said on Thursday. "This meet has good competition every year, so we're definitely going to have to run fast to do as well as we did last year."
Kiser is no stranger to the race and she showed that she's not intimidated by the stage last season when she pulled off a bit of an upset to out-sprint a group of All-Americans and NCAA qualifiers for the individual women's victory.
That race was first big result in a year that included an individual NCAA Cross Country Championships bid for the junior and included a Second-Team All-America accolade during the indoor track and field season to go along with her three Western Athletic Conference records, three individual WAC titles and four First-Team All-WAC honors.
"I've only had one race so far this, so I'm still trying to get to the point where I have a really good feel for things," Kiser said – but that doesn't mean she's not aiming for a repeat. "I'm definitely going to go in knowing that I can do well, since I did in the past and I'm in even better shape now."
The task for Kiser and the Vandal women will be to improve upon their fifth-place finish from last season's meet. With the competition being held on a relatively even golf course surface, as well as being just a 5000-meter race, Kiser said she and the team are excited for a quicker pace against the strong field.
Vandal senior Barry Britt was Idaho's second finisher at this race last year at 17th overall, and he said the prospect of running against several of the nation's top runners has each member of the young men's team excited.
That excitement is good to have, Britt said, but it can also be troublesome once the race begins. He said it's important for the younger runners not to get caught up in the moment and forget their race strategy. At the same time, he said that being at these big races against high levels of competition helped to keep him focused on loftier goals.
"They're probably not going to win – they'll be in the middle of the pack, but it's good for them to be in that level of competition and hopefully it gives them a renewed sense of work ethic," Britt said of the young runners. "It shows you what's out there and how far you have to go to reach that level of being the best."
The same goes for Idaho's freshmen on the women's side. With juniors Holly Browning (Stanton) and Emily Paradis under the weather two weeks ago at the Sundodger Invitational, Vandal freshman scored in the third, fourth and fifth positions for Idaho. Kiser said that experience was good for their development and that the most important thing is for the young runners to maintain that focus and take another step forward.
"The job of the veterans is to make sure everyone is calm, because it can be very intimidating," Kiser said of the environment. "All of a sudden you're competing with big, nationally-ranked teams, so it's important to make sure the freshman know they deserve to be here and they just need to run their own race.
"I hope we make some more good progress this weekend so we can have a lot of momentum going into our next big meet in two weeks at Pre-Nationals."
The meet will be held at the Springfield Golf Course and Country Club at Springfield, Ore. The women's 5k race starts at 10:30 a.m. (PT), while the men's 8k competition will follow at 11:15 a.m.

Cameron Diaz is now a shoe designer. The 41-year-old has took on the role as creative director for accessories and shoe line Pour La Victoire, according to PEOPLE on Feb. 3.
Diaz will help oversee the artistic direction of the shoe collection. She also designed her first shoes in the collection.
The fall 2014 collection includes lots of neutrals, suede, leather, and high heels. Diaz has made it clear that she doesn't want her name all over the brand. She just wants to add a touch of her class and style to the collection.
"When I first came to PLV, I saw the potential in it because it was a brand that didn't really have its own identity," she tells Footwear News, adding that she wanted to "pare down" and "refine" the existing collections. "It was a little bit all over the place. I looked at it as an opportunity to help create that."
Diaz admitted she spent a lot of late nights at the Pour La Victoire showroom. But she doesn't mind. She said, "This is very important to me. I'm not a person who does anything halfway."
Cameron Diaz does want to make it clear that she wants to design shoes for other girls. She says, "I don't want girls to aspire to be me. That's not what this brand is about. It's not about wearing a shoe I would wear," she said. "I want them to see themselves in this shoe."

How many times have you felt you needed to prove yourself? How often do you let your ego drive the words that speak through your mouth? What if your perception is what is getting in your way? Do your beliefs block you from being your highest vision of yourself?
I was in a situation where I felt pressured and tested for my intelligence. I remember thinking, "Oh no, they are going to think I am dumb if I do not get this answer." Even though I received the answer quickly, I second-guessed it immediately. My lesson was, I would have trusted the answer to be true if I were in a calm state, recognized that my receptors have infinite intelligence, and standing in confidence is the key to opening that wealth of information.
The back of your head, specifically your visual cortex, is one way where you can alter your perception. Experiences where your ego is tested are gifts for you to learn what inner work is to be done. Today, I am writing this article because I learned that my ego wanted to drive yesterday and if I did, I would have not received the answer, at all. For now, I am just letting the ego take the back seat.
Due to me setting my own processing boundary, the answer came to me, with a delay. The glitch was disbelief in my own wisdom and I let others shape my response to the information. When I learn to fully trust myself, I will let ego get a ride with someone else. For now, ego is observing. My highest self is in the passenger seat, observing my transformation. Ego is learning that even if it calls "shotgun," I will still say, "I called shotgun first."
"Any conflict you see or experience in the outside world is a projection of your ego. In truth, the world is completely at peace and you project your fear of peace onto the world. You don't want to resolve your inner conflict, but you do want to get it away from yourself. So, you project it onto other people and think that 'they' are the ones who are causing you discomfort. Other people are neutral, blank slates and you color them with your own meaning and definitions. Then, you react to them as if these colorations and definitions were real. Other people, in turn, treat you in the way that you expect, in a self-fulfilling prophecy" (Virtue, D).

Released: Jun 01st, 2003
Running Time:
Director: Vinni Rossi
Company: VCX
Cast: Misty Dawn, Jerry Davis, Scott Irish, Mark Harris, Susanne Winters, Hershel Savage, Alan Richards, Mai Lin, Bunny Bleu, Becky Savage, Randy West, Kay Parker, Tamara Longley, Bill Margold, Ruby Smart, Ron Jeremy
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Film
Directed in 1983 by the legendary (well, more or less) Vinnie Rossi, and written by the well-respected Mark Weiss, Desire takes its name from the last word Tamara Longley utters as she leaves lover Herschel Savage for good — and in his declining years, the lover (played by a well-aged Bill Margold), now very rich, hires researcher Kay Parker to discover what Longley meant by that. To do so, Parker collects a variety of sexual "amateurs," including Mai Lin, Bunny Bleu, Ron Jeremy and Randy West, and has them tell her what "desire" means to them — that is, their sexual stories and fantasies — in hopes that she can divine what Longley meant when she said it.
Along the way, there's some excellent sex to be seen. Best is Longley herself, in her brief interlude with Savage, but not far behind is Jeremy's love-making session with a mannequin which turns into the highly-attractive Misty Dawn for b.j. and doggie. Parker is underused sexually, essaying only a b.j. with West, a half-decent girl/girler with an unidentified woman, and a short Gg/mish session with "chauffeur" Jerry Davis. Desire is a decent example of too much early-'8os porn: Hot performers underused in short scenes.

White Sulphur Springs, W. Va. -- New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees hasn't practiced since last Friday, but coach Sean Payton still declined to say whether Brees would play in the team's opener Friday night at St. Louis.
"Not yet," Payton said Wednesday after the Saints completed practice at the Greenbrier resort.
The Saints will go through a light walk-through Wednesday afternoon and travel to St. Louis on Thursday. The game against the Rams kicks off Friday at 7 p.m. CT at the Edward Jones Dome.
Payton also declined to comment on the status of offensive guards Ben Grubbs and Jahri Evans. Grubbs worked aggressively with a trainer on the sidelines Wednesday, an encouraging sign after he has spent most of the past two weeks standing and watching practice. Evans has been absent for parts of two practices. Payton has not elaborated on either player's injury.
Brees threw some light passes on the sidelines and looked nimble in doing post-practice running. Payton has described his injury as a strained left oblique.
Three other players were absent Wednesday: fullback Erik Lorig, outside linebacker Victor Butler and reserve offensive lineman Ty Nsekhe. Payton has not addressed the status of any of those players.
Receiver Joe Morgan dressed out and participated in Wednesday's practice after wearing shorts Tuesday, while fellow receivers Kenny Stills and Andy Tanner watched from the sidelines. Receiver Nick Toon showed no ill effects from a minor shoulder injury suffered Tuesday.
Cornerbacks Champ Bailey and Terrence Frederick and tight end Je'Ron Hamm were also held out. Cornerback Derrius Brooks, who was banged up earlier in the week, was dressed out and participated in practice.

Free dental implant surgery
Dental implants are very effective. They have a long life. If proper care is taken, they can last up to 15-20 years. However, there is one major disadvantage associated with them–they are costly. The surgical procedure is also costly because it takes a lot of skill and effort. For this reason, it may not be possible to get dental implants for free. However, it may be possible for you to get dental implants for much cheaper prices. Here are some pointers to get dental implant procedures performed for much cheaper cost:
* Dental implants and other dental procedures are much cheaper in countries such as India, China, Thailand and Mexico. If you live in the United Kingdom, you can visit Poland and Hungary to get procedures done. Dental procedures are also cheaper in other Eastern European countries. In these countries, dental implants are cheaper only due to difference in economy and
not due to quality or skill-sets of the dentists. You can be certain that you will be getting good results.
* Dental colleges: Dental colleges often offer dental procedures for free for demonstrating to students. You can contain your nearest dental college if this is a possibility. In some cases, dental students may perform the procedures. However, they will always be supervised by an experienced professor and so you don't have to worry.
You can also evaluate other options. For example, some dental insurance companies have started offering cover for dental implants. Contact your insurance company for more information.

Full list of appearances
|Ken Merckx
Count Dregon is the conqueror of Edenoi and the mortal enemy of Prince Dex, the Masked Rider. He is the main villain in the Edenoi sections of "A Friend in Need".
While the Edonites lived in peace without weapons or armies for centuries, He arrived with a vast army, devastating and conquering the peaceful world; he went as far as to force the Edonites to mine toxic gas, polluting their own home. His main goal is to take the Masked Rider powers for himself.
In his time in space, he encountered Lord Zedd. The two are fierce rivals, with Zedd angry that Dregon keeps trying to outdo him as a villain.
Soon after the Power Rangers visited Edenoi and helped Dex, Dregon decided to turn his attentions towards Earth. This led into the spin-off show Masked Rider, but he never again appeared on Power Rangers. He ran into the team again in the Masked Rider comic.
He is absent from Dark Specter's convention of villains in "From Out of Nowhere".

Lady Raider Tennis Announces 2012-13 Schedule
Head Coach Todd Petty and the Lady Raiders look to defend their 2012 Big 12 Conference title.
August 27, 2012
2012-13 Lady Raider Tennis Schedule
LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech Lady Raider women's tennis team announced its 2012-13 schedule today. The slate features six fall events and 22 regular season spring matches, including 12 matches against teams that appeared in the 2012 NCAA Championships.
"I think our schedule provides us with both regional and national exposure," said Lady Raider head coach Todd Petty. "We have the opportunity to be tested and look forward to what this year has to offer."
Texas Tech returns all seven letterwinners from last season's squad and adds newcomer Sofya Malysheva to the lineup. The Lady Raiders went 19-6 last season and won the Big 12 Conference regular season title with an 8-1 mark.
Texas Tech will open the season at the Midland Raquet Club Club Collegiate Invitational in Midland. Each year, this event features the nation's top collegiate talent from coast to coast.
The fall schedule also includes the Little Rock Classic, a hidden dual match event with Ole Miss, Arkansas and Oklahoma, followed by the Riviera ITA All-American Championships in Los Angeles, Calif. The Lady Raiders will compete at the Air Force Invitational and the ITA Texas Regional Championships in October and close out the fall slate with the New Mexico Invitational in November.
The Lady Raiders open the spring season on Jan. 19, when they host the University of Denver.
Texas Tech then travels to Waco for the ITA Kickoff Weekend, an ITA National Team Indoor Championship qualifier. The Lady Raiders will face No. 30 Rice in the first round and either No. 40 Florida State or No. 13 Baylor in the second round.
The Lady Raiders will then continue a string of six consecutive road matches against ranked foes, including NCAA participants No. 27 Arizona, No. 56 Sacramento State, No. 30 Rice and No. 11 Alabama.
Texas Tech returns home on March 1 to host SMU and No. 74 Wisconsin, before returning to the road to close out the non-conference schedule against No. 50 San Diego and No. 8 North Carolina in San Diego, Calif., on March 12-13.
No. 46 Oklahoma travels to Lubbock to open Big 12 play on March 17 to begin a four-match homestand that includes West Virginia, Iowa State and No. 41 Oklahoma State.
The Lady Raiders will then hit the road for four straight Big 12 matches at No. 17 Texas, No. 71 Kansas State, Kansas and No. 35 TCU, before returning home for Senior Day against No. 13 Baylor on Apr. 21 to close out the regular season.

Who discovered the mitochondria?
The mitochondrian was first identified at the end of the 19th century by a German pathologist and histologist (tissue researcher) named Richard Altmann. It was given the name "mitochondria" by Karl Benda, a German physician. (1857-1933). [source: wikipedia] Altmann is known for his work involving cell theory and structure. In his study of animal cells, he investigated small granules in the protoplasm of the cell. He called these particles- bioblasts, which he postulated were elementary organisms that had metabolic and genetic autonomy. Today Altmann's bioblasts are known as mitochondria.
So what are mitochondria?
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the modern cell, providing some 90% of the energy needed for survival. In 1963, scientists discovered mitochondria had their own DNA, arranged in circles, containing the blueprints for 37 of the molecules mitochondria need to create to generate energy.
The single-cell embryo that results from the merger of the egg and sperm has a solitary nucleus with a matching set of chromosomes with about 100,000 genes from the sperm and 100,000 from the egg. These are coded in about three billion base pairs along the strands of DNA.
The fertilized egg, and all of its descendant cells, divide their chromosomes into two mirror images and then split into new cells with each cell obtaining a full set of genes.
By comparison, the DNA of mitochondria has only 16,569 base pairs and these are all inherited from the cytoplasm of the egg. The male makes no contribution to this complement.
Making Fuel for the whole body
Each mitochondrion has a convoluted inner membrane, like a giant nucleus, within its smooth outer membrane. It generates energy by relaying electrons along a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane. This series is called the respiratory chain. The electrons interact with oxygen and protons to form water and energy.
Mitochondria direct the energy released from the oxidation of hydrogen to pump protons across the inner membrane. This creates a charge and chemical differential that facilitates the synthesis of ATP Synthase which in turn facilitates the creation of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is liberated into the cell cytoplasm and distributed throughout the body as fuel for all cellular activities.
The process depends upon a steady supply of oxygen and hydrogen (H+) as well as electrons supplied from food. Should any of these be in short supply, the cells rapidly run out of fuel and die. Should mutations inhibit the process of ATP production, the cells begin to weaken.
