Breast Enlargement or Reduction at GNH Hospital Gurgaon India
Breast Augmentation or Enlargement and Breast Reduction
Breast augmentation is the surgical placement of breast implants to increase fullness and size of the breasts or to improve symmetry of the breasts. The cosmetic and aesthetic surgeon at GNH Hospital Dr Shilpi Bhadani specializes in both the Breast Augmentation as well as Breast Reduction Procedures. Breast Reduction is mostly done in middle aged women with sagging breasts. In Breast Reduction Dr Shilpi removes some excess Breast tissue and firms up the breasts. With good quality Silicone Implants the cost of Breast Augmentation Surgery at GNH Hospital is approximately USD 3000. Special packages for Indian patients can be availed by calling at 91-8800188336
Breast augmentation surgery increases or restores breast size using silicone gel implants, saline implants or in some cases, fat transfer. One of the most popular and frequently performed aesthetic surgery procedures, breast augmentation has a long and successful track record in satisfying women who wish to enhance, regain or restore balance to their figures.
When to Consider Breast Augmentation
- If you want a better proportioned or more appealing figure
- If you wish your clothes fit better
- When pregnancy, weight loss or aging has affected the size and shape of your breasts
- To restore symmetry if one of your breasts is smaller than the other
- Augmentation is a long-term solution for achieving an ideal figure.
- You will look better in clothes and swimwear.
- You will have a more youthful-looking figure.
- Breast implants require monitoring.
- Implants will eventually need to be replaced.
- Normal surgical risks are involved.
These are the three top pros and cons to weigh when considering breast augmentation. If you wish to focus on what is unique to you, please consult with your aesthetic plastic surgeon.
Are you a good candidate for breast augmentation?
The following are some common reasons why you may want to consider breast augmentation:
- You believe your breasts are too small for your body.
- You feel self-conscious wearing a swimsuit or form-fitting or low-cut tops.
- Clothes that fit your hips are too large at the bust line.
- Your breasts have become smaller or less firm after you've had children.
- Your breasts have become smaller due to weight loss.
- One of your breasts is noticeably smaller than the other.
If you are in good health, have a positive attitude and realistic expectations, you are most likely a good candidate for this procedure.
Detailed Procedural Info
How is a breast augmentation procedure performed?
In breast augmentation using implants, your surgeon makes an incision, lifts the breast tissue, creates a pocket in the chest/breast area and places an implant in the pocket.
An additional option for breast augmentation is autologous fat transfer, a process in which your surgeon removes your own fat, using liposuction, from a fat-yielding body part (such as your abdomen, thighs, or flanks) processes it and then injects it into your breasts. This procedure is currently considered experimental, due to a limited history of data, but the process has shown promise.
Where will my breast implants be placed?
Multiple factors, including your anatomy and your surgeon's recommendations, will determine how your breast implant is inserted and positioned. The implant is placed in a pocket either:
- Underneath the pectoral muscle, which is located between the breast tissue and chest wall.
- Underneath the breast tissue and on top of the pectoral muscle.
Breast implants are placed either above or below the pectoral muscle.
Placement of the implant underneath the pectoral muscle may interfere less with mammograms and breast-feeding. Your plastic surgeon will discuss this with you.
What are my options?
There have never been more choices for breast augmentation. The following options are available, depending on your medical history, body shape and aesthetic goals.
Saline-filled breast implants are filled with sterile salt water. They may be prefilled at a predetermined size or filled at the time of surgery to allow for minor modifications in implant size.
Silicone-filled breast implants are filled with soft, elastic gel and are available in a variety of shapes. All silicone breast implants are pre-filled and may require a longer incision for implant placement.
Cohesive gel silicone implants, also known as "gummy bear" or "form stable" implants, are filled with a cohesive gel, made of crosslinked molecules of silicone, which makes them a bit thicker and firmer than traditional silicone implants. This enables them to hold their shape better. Approved by the FDA for use in the United States in 2012, these implants have been available in much of the world since 1992.
Autologous fat transfer removes fat through liposuction from an area of your body in which there are abundant fat cells, such as your thighs, abdomen and hips. After a process of preparation and refinement, the fat cells are injected into your breast. This is a less common method than breast implant augmentation and is still undergoing clinical studies and research for safety and effectiveness.
Your plastic surgeon might combine any of these breast augmentation options with a breast lift if there is any sagging or drooping of your breasts.
Your anatomy and health profile as well as your personal preferences will help you and your surgeon determine:
- The best type of surgery for you
- Your optimal breast size
- The type of implant and incision location that will best fill your needs.
Factors that influence the size and type of breast augmentation recommended for you include:
- Your medical history
- Your goals for breast enhancement
- Your existing body frame and mass
- Your existing breast tissue
- Your preferences related to size and incision placement.
The goal of your aesthetic plastic surgeon and staff is to help you achieve the best results and to make your surgical experience as easy, safe and comfortable as possible.
What will my breast augmentation incisions and scars be like?
An incision can be made in one of four places:
- Inframammary: Underneath the breast, just above the crease
- Transaxillary: Near the armpit, where the arm meets the chest area
- Periareolar: Around the lower edge of the areola (the dark area surrounding the nipple)
- Transumbilical: in the navel
Is breast augmentation safe?
It is important for women with breast implants to keep in mind that while breast implants are intended to last your lifetime, replacement may become necessary. After breast implant surgery, you should have periodic examination by Dr Shilpi Bhadani to monitor your implants.

OK, I'm going to disclaimer by saying that I may be slightly sensitive to this issue and therefore may be overreacting. My ILs make it a point to come visit us for our children's birthdays every year and we either do Christmas at our house or there house depending on what works best. Things have always worked out and been fine in that regard.
However, when we announced that this baby that I'm pregnant with was a boy they both got overly excited. I say this because our last LO is a girl and they were basically like, "Oh that's so nice, how fun!". They didn't get a chance to be excited about ODD's birth because I already had her when my DH and I married. They've always treated both girls equally. With my announcement that this one is a boy they both got tears in their eyes and my MIL seriously kissed me on the cheek and said "Thank you" about 6 times to me. Ummm... yeah because we ordered a boy just for you guys. I will say also that they definitely favored my DH over his sister when they were growing up. I don't know why it is that to them boys shoot rainbows out of their asses and girls just need to get their teeth fixed so they can find a husband (seriously a comment my FIL made about his own DD).
So ever since the announcement I have been very vigilant about trying to make sure there will be no favoritism shown. I made a post here about announcing squishy's name. I made sure to shot down any thought they might have about having an opinion (link). MIL keeps asking to see ultrasound pictures, I've told her she can see them when I have time to send them. I'm not going to go out of my way to send her pictures when she never hounded me this much about YDD's ultrasound pictures.
Now here's my issue. I don't know at this point if I'm being overly sensitive and reading too much into this or not. Which is why I'm asking about it here.
IL's came up in September for YDD's 2nd birthday. They stayed with friends of theirs and not at my house. I put a stop to the staying at the house a while ago. Things were mostly fine except I knew they were going to try and push my ODD to get baptized if they had any alone time with her. So when my DH called me at work to tell me that FIL wanted to take ODD for a walk, I said absolutely not! DH agreed and told FIL he would go with them on the walk. FIL got pissed and implied we didn't trust him, which only strengthened our resolve that he was going to try to plant seeds in her mind. DH and I have no problem with ODD getting baptized, but only when she's ready. So IL's have a hissy and leave the house till it's time for the party. Sadly DH didn't send the gifts with them and tell them not to come back.
Now my ODD's birthday is at the end of October and they had planned on coming for it. I got really sick at the end of September and was admitted to the ICU and put in a drug induced coma after being diagnosed with A.R.D.S, the doctors gave me a 50% chance. The ILs drove up to be with their son. Instead of watching the girls and allowing him to be with me at the hospital as often as possible they monopolized him and had him take them and the girls places and would go with him to the hospital only when my parents would leave the hospital and watch the girls or when my brother and SIL would watch the girls. This kind of pisses me off, but I wasn't conscious, so I couldn't do anything. DH was already so overwhelmed with doctors asking him what to do about the baby if I died, should they save him or not. I pretty much feel like the ILs only came because they thought their grand son may be born early (I was 24 weeks). After 5 days of them being there they informed my DH that FIL had an art show in the bigger city and they were leaving to go to that. Until MIL decided to stay at the house and help DH, which basically meant she cleaned my house. OK, I can be alright with that, I appreciate it even. Her and FIL were gone and back home before I was taken off the meds keeping me in the coma.
Now fast forward to 2 weeks before ODD's birthday party. I ask MIL when they will be arriving. She tells me they won't be coming as they don't have the money for it since they came up when I was sick. This confuses me because they were going to come up for at least that weekend anyway for the art show. But I can kind of understand because they did miss a week of work. Now MIL works part time and FIL owns his own business doing faux finishing work in his client's houses. So I don't know how much they lost out on personally and was OK with this. I did tell her that I wanted her to talk to ODD so that she could explain it, and ODD would get to talk to her. ODD was upset and cried (she just turned 9). She said she understood and I listened on speaker to make sure that nothing manipulative was said.
After that conversation I told her that with our finances and my pregnancy being so high risk at this point that we couldn't afford or even take a chance on traveling so far away from my doctors so Christmas was not going to be at their house. I then told her with how bad their finances are that I didn't think it would be wise for them to take the trip to see us either. Which MIL then responds that they won't come up for Christmas but they will come up when I have Squishy and we can do Christmas then.... Ummmm, what? So basically they want to arrange everything around when the grand son will be born. I feel that this is going to upset ODD once again. It looks (especially to a 9 year old) as if they are only planning their trips based around their biological grand children. I explained this to my DH and he has been thinking about it. He agrees with what it looks like and I told him I don't want him to say anything about it to them. My MIL is going on the assumption that they are going to schedule my induction, or c-section. I of course don't want that to happen unless completely necessary for mine and baby's health. I'm seriously in a place at this point where I don't think I'll tell them even if it is scheduled. They don't need to be there.
So being as I just wrote a novel. I'm curious what you ladies think. Am I overreacting? Am I BEC? Am I right to be concerned? I'm sure I could add more details but I think I've written enough. I will be happy to answer any question you may have. I could really use some advice on this.

The Wasatch County School Board is pleased to announce that Paul Sweat has been hired as the new Superintendent of Wasatch County School District. Mr. Sweat will assume these responsibilities on July 1, 2016.
Paul Sweat has a long history in the Wasatch County School District. He has most recently been serving as the Director of Secondary Education for the District. Earlier in his career, he taught math and driver education. He has been an assistant principal in the junior high. He also worked as an assistant principal and athletic director at Wasatch High School.. He was principal of Wasatch High School for five years before moving to the district office, and was very instrumental in the drive to build the new Wasatch High School building.
Mr. Sweat graduated from Wasatch High School. He married a classmate, Teri Moulton, and they have 6 children. Mr. Sweat received his undergraduate degree from Brigham Young University, and his Master's Degree from Utah State University. He is currently a Doctoral Candidate at the University of Utah.
Based on the progress that Wasatch County School District has made in their move to the digital classrooms, Mr. Sweat, along with Wasatch County School District, were recently nominated to become members of the National League of innovative School Districts. He has also been asked to serve on the Utah State Digital Advisory Board.
School Board President, Mark Davis, said about the selection of Mr. Sweat: "We are so pleased to make this appointment. We know Paul well. He has been the driving force behind some of our most significant academic programs during the past several years. As we look to the future, we anticipate continued academic excellence under the leadership of Superintendent Paul Sweat."
Mr. Davis went on to thank the citizen's committee who worked so diligently to narrow down the applicants to a manageable size. "We were very pleased at the number of applicants for this position," said Mr. Davis. "The citizens' review committee, made up of 19 individuals, read each application and ranked them before giving the applications to the school board. Their guidance was a great service to us and helped us to focus in on those individuals who were best prepared to provide Wasatch County School District the leadership we need."
Because there were applicants from within the district, the search process was overseen by the Utah State School Board Association to assure impartiality. Wasatch District employees, including the School Board members themselves knew nothing of the number of applicants or the names of applicants until the closing date of the application process.
"The process worked very well," said President Davis. "The citizen's review committee worked so hard to analyze each of the applicants. By the time we received the information from them, their opinions were very clear, and for the most part, almost unanimous. From there, we interviewed the four top candidates, and in that interview process, Mr. Sweat rose to the top."
Mr. Sweat will be taking over for Superintendent Terry Shoemaker, who served for 15 years as the Superintendent of Wasatch County School District and who has taken a job with the Utah State School Board Association.

By Crystal Lewis Brown, Fort Jackson LeaderDecember 16, 2008
Early in his tenure as tactical support operations supervisor at Fort Jackson, Harvey J. Jackson heard a comment from a Soldier that he said bothered him.
"I got another broken weapon," Jackson recalls hearing the Basic Combat Training Soldier say. The statement made Jackson wonder.
"A Soldier is here only 10 weeks, how do you have another broken weapon'" he asked himself.
Jackson soon made it a priority to ensure each Soldier had working equipment, but despite his staff's long hours and dedication, it was nearly impossible for his team of 11 technicians to service the 20,000 weapons Soldiers used in the course of the year.
But a new U.S. Army Materiel Command program, started at Fort Jackson this year, will go a long way to ensuring the weapons, radios, night vision goggles and other equipment put into Soldiers' hands work each and every time.
The $4.8 million U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command/TACOM Life Cycle Management Command-initiated project, called Fleet Management Expansion - or FMX -- tasks TACOM to bring in outside teams to service tactical equipment for the entire post.
TACOM manages the Small Arms Readiness and Evaluation Team and the Communications-Electronics Evaluation Repair Team. SARET arrived first in late November and work is planned to continue through Dec. 20.
SARET brought 80 men and women who work up to 13-hour days on weapons ranging from M-9s to mortar rounds, said mission leader Terry Rosenthal.
"We are inspecting and repairing small arms weapons," he said. "They leave (here) mission capable, which is our goal."
The team brings more than 1,000 parts with them to be able to repair or completely refurbish the weapons, Rosenthal said. Those weapons that cannot be repaired are "coded out," or designated as unusable, and taken out of the rotation to be replaced.
Rosenthal said his teams usually work on weapons for Soldiers who are deploying or who have recently returned from deployment. This mission, he said, is not only for a different purpose than usual, it is larger. In a normal mission, the team may fix 500 weapons a day. This time, they are aiming for 1,000.
"For this one, we have double the teams and double the weapons," he said.
Jackson said each battalion on Fort Jackson is given a designated day to drop off weapons to be repaired.
Estimating each company has 267 weapons, Jackson said a company can have its weapons dropped off and returned within two or three hours. A battalion's worth of weapons can be completed within a day. The formula to have the weapons repaired may seem complicated, but timing is crucial. BCT Soldiers need their weapons to train, and can spare little time without them.
Next door in the weapons pool, behind a locked gate and barbed wire, another team works diligently on electronics. CEER-T has staked out a corner where they are working on radios. other members of the team are in a small, mobile trailer outside, where they are taking apart, cleaning and repairing night vision goggles.
William Bolling II, site lead for the 17-member team, said his team does all things electronic.
"You name it, I do it all," he said. "We go to the various bases and we basically fix their radios and their night vision. They bring us junk, and we give them stuff that works."
His team arrived Dec. 1. Unlike SARET, Bolling said his team is working on a smaller scale than usual. He expects his team to repair about 1,000 night vision goggles and 1,000 radios in the three weeks it will be here.
Usually, the team may have two months to repair between 2,500 and 3,000 of each for a brigade combat team.
"We'll be busy, but the way things are looking now, it shouldn't be a problem," he said, referring to the timeframe.
So far, Jackson said, both teams are off to a great start, and despite the hard work, he said it is important to remember why the job is so important.
"If it goes in the hands of Soldiers, it's our responsibility to make sure it's in good condition," he said. "It's a monumental task to get it done, and it's great for everybody."

A sexual act when a woman has intercourse with a man, while she is at the end of her menstrual cycle, and then the man ejaculates semen and blood on her face turning her into Heath Ledger as The Joker. The man then asks: "Why so serious?!"
"I woke up this morning with The Joker."
بواسطة Sweet Cinnamon Bunns أغسطس/آب 1, 2012
When you apply period blood to both sides of your cheeks to make your appearance resemble that of Heath Ledger's character in the Batman series.
You can obtain the joker by using your fingers to smear on the blood or simply perform cunnilingus with vigor.

I made this recipe with fresh raspberries and somehow forgot the raisins. Still, amazing! The flavors just pop! The colors are really pretty, but suffer some in the pressure canning process (becomes more brown than red/purple). I pressure canned this in half pint jars for 15 minutes at 15 lbs pressure. It might not need pressure canning, but I cannot measure the pH and err on the side of safety. This is great over cream cheese on bagels, or served with a rich cut of meat: pork roast, roast turkey or chicken.
I shall be using the Onion-Raspberry Jalapeno Chutney as my contribution to the "Jarred-Swap" at the Ontario Tapas Party, being held at Country Lady's Ponderosa on March 10. Excellent for my purpose, and for gifts... I shall be preparing several batches for our annual bake/preserves sale. Thanks again, Sharon 123

The Gunstringer moved from XBL release to retail due to request from Microsoft
Twisted Pixel's CEO has said its upcoming marionette game, The Gunstringer, was switched from an XBL-only release to a full retail version, due to a decision made by Steve Baller and other Microsoft head honchos during a business retreat.
Speaking in a video interview with D'toid, Michael Wilford said the business types at MS saw a demo of the game, apparently liked it, and asked if the developers could switch it over to a full release.
Wilford also said that the team had been working on a retail version "secretly" since February.
You can watch a demo of the game below, with Wilford providing the walkthrough.
The Gunstringer is slated for a September release on Kinect.

It is great vanity and my wife & I love it. The only thing missing from it is backsplash that does not come with it and if you putting this in bathrooms you need a black splash to prevent water from going down... Otherwise nice piece, great looking, travertine is a great top makes it look rich, carvings and wood is nice, the shelving is rock solid as well. Definitely recommend it to my friends...
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Looks exactly the same
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Solid, well done, tightly packed,
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Quite accurate
My husband and I purchased this to remodel our hall bathroom. We have received so many compliments on it. It arrived in perfect condition. Would purchase again if it was available!
Love the detail on the woodwork. Solid wood throughout and very hardwood too. No OSB or particle board even inside the drawers. Wish it came with granite top but the travertine is proving a worthy choice.
The vanity itself is beautiful. When I removed it from the packaging I was impressed With the looks of it. After closer inspection, I realized how cheaply made it is. There are areas on the vanity where I can see finishing nails from the inside protruding through, not breaking through the wood, but giving the appearance of many bumps under the finish. And I'm not sure why I referred to this as wood. After the first day in the bathroom my shoe kicked the corner (rubber sole) and the first chip of the finish came off revealing the light colored pressed wood underneath. It's been installed for two weeks and I have about six noticeable chips so far. I guess I'll have to color them in with a brown magic marker so they blend. The vanity is beautiful, but cheaply made. I knew I was taking that chance when I saw the cost. If you need something lower in cost that can boost the value of your home, then this s the way to go, but I don't suggest it for long term with the way the finish chips away with barely any contact.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Almost exact
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor
This vanity would have cost me twice as much in any of the home improvement stores in our area. The vanity arrived on time and in excellent condition. The shipping company called me the day before to schedule a delivery time. When the van arrived the delivery men carried the vanity into the house and placed it in the master bedroom. They were courteous and professional. The vanity was better than the pictures and fits perfectly in my small master bathroom. Once again Overstock has exceeded my expectation.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? excellent
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. excellent
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? exellent
First time ordering off Overstock.com but they were the only company I could find that had this particular vanity in stock and ready to ship as well as the absolute best price ($$$). Ordering was simple except for my stupid credit card that saw the large online purchase and wouldnt allow it until I called them and verified it was actually me using it. Understandable in these days, and not Overstocks fault, but nonetheless, annoying. Anyway, received item after about 2 weeks and exact delivery date and time was established by the shipping company they used which was also very professional. The shipping company would not wait for me to unpack the item to inspect for any damage, so I noted it on the slip and took a ton of pictures of the item boxed up after arriving and throughout the unpacking process just to cover my a** just in case. Luckily the vanity had zero damage on it and was just as lovely as I was hoping for. Finish is pretty nice for a more manufactured type item. All the drawers opened and closed well, and the granite was very nice. The only tiny thing I will note here (and I mean really tiny) is that the front edge of the granite where it had been carved using a router was a little bit wavy when viewed down the edge. Worth mentioning, but keeping things in perspective, this was really being nit picky. Haven't finished changing the plumbing to accommodate the double sink yet, but mocked it up in our bathroom and I can tell it is going to look great when completed. All in all, It was a great purchase, i am very pleased with the item and would buy another if i had use for two. As for Overstock, things went so smooth and effortless all i can say is they were great. If I had a problem with my item I might have got a chance to see how good or bad their customer service was, but fortunately everything went so smooth, all i can say is that I am very pleased with every aspect of this transaction.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Very Close
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Quality is very nice considering these are not one off custom pieces. There are a few minor things one could complain about if you were being insanely picky, but all things considered, I think the vanity is extremely nice.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Accurate

"Going into the meeting, I had several concerns and was loosely contemplating recommending a take-private transaction, with funding commitments in place before I got on the plane from NYC."
The dude had funding commitments. That was before he was blown away by the steady resolve of the officers of the company. The company clearly has a Wall Street's backing. Too many funds and not enough shares. The stock price can only go in one direction. Now I fully expect a similar article on REED's in the not too distant future. One of these days....
Yeah he was so blown away he bought zero stock.... what a joke

Authorised capital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The authorised capital of a company (sometimes referred to as the authorised share capital, registered capital or nominal capital, particularly in the United States) is the maximum amount of share capital that the company is authorised by its constitutional documents to issue (allocate) to shareholders. Part of the authorised capital can (and frequently does) remain unissued. This number can be changed by shareholders' approval. The part of the authorised capital which has been issued to shareholders is referred to as the issued share capital of the company.
In the United Kingdom, the concept of authorised share capital was abolished under the Companies Act 2006.[1]

Social Media
Expect a bit more video – six seconds at a time – via your favorite federal agencies' social media accounts.
The video application Vine has been approved for federal agencies to use with their Twitter and other social media platforms, joining more than 60 other social media platforms and applications with negotiated federal-friendly terms of services agreements. Vine videos are limited to six seconds.
The announcement is a sign of the rapidly evolving social government community, coming via the General Services Administration New Media office's Twitter account and via a Vine video.
Justin Herman, new media manager at the General Services Administration's Center for Excellence in Digital Government, wrote in a blog post announcing Vine's availability to agencies that Vine is just the latest tool in an evolving digital culture that's continuing to improve how agencies interact with customers and the general public.
Herman noted that the app is free and enables users to record videos with iPhones or iPads and easily share it on Twitter and other social media platforms. "Like Twitter, which limits messages to 140 characters, Vine keeps the process simple and concise while providing an opportunity to engage in a compelling way," Herman wrote. "Government knows that citizens want official information available anytime, anywhere and on any device, and Vine can help agencies engage through mobile video sharing and feedback."
In the post, Herman encouraged agencies to share Vine terms of service (TOS) with attorneys and decide whether the tool can help them meet their mission needs. (Read a list of tools with negotiated federal-specific terms-of-service agreements here.)

Peppers at 10, which seems low.
Kyle Bosch To Transfer
Bosch on the right with Mason Cole and Jack Miller.
247's Steve Wiltfong is reporting that Michigan OL Kyle Bosch is set to transfer.
Bosch started on and off as a true freshman as Michigan struggled to put their 2013 line together, then competed for a starting job last spring. He dropped off the radar in favor of a lineup with Jack Miller at center and Graham Glasgow and Erik Magnuson at guard, played one snap in the opener, and then went on a medical/personal/mental health leave for the remainder of the season.
He's back on campus now but is apparently going to light out for greener pastures with Michigan returning its entire starting five and Magnuson. Michigan still has two redshirt sophomore guards in David Dawson and Dan Samuelson, so Bosch's departure doesn't create any alarming gaps in the OL progression. It does increase the urgency for Michigan to find two or three capable prospects before signing day.
Exit Michael Ferns
After a couple players tweeted the news, 247's Steve Lorenz confirmed that freshman linebacker Michael Ferns will transfer to West Virginia. Ferns, a 2014 four-star recruit from St. Clairsville, Ohio—very close to the West Virginia border—redshirted last season after enrolling early.
While Michigan loses a once-promising recruit, this is a transfer that shouldn't have a huge short- or long-term impact. Desmond Morgan, Joe Bolden, Ben Gedeon, and Mike McCray projected to fill the two-deep at inside linebacker in 2015, while Ferns's 2014 classmates Noah Furbush, Chase Winovich, and Jared Wangler provide options for the future. Michigan also returns James Ross, Royce Jenkins-Stone, and Allen Gant; as position groups go, linebacker is one of the deepest on the roster.
Ferns is the first member of the 16-man class of 2014 to depart the program.
Mailbag: OC Or DC Background, The Other Kelly, Blues Brothers Dance Hug-out
The importance of coach background?
Patterson is a rare defensive HC standout
Hi Brian,
I know there are plenty of questions about the coaching search coming through, I'd hoped to give a different take.
In your opinion what is the preferable background of a coach. In the modern game with high powered, explosive offenses being the key to success, the trend seems be leaning towards guys with strong background in developing offenses (Tom Herman, Gus Malzahn, etc). I still maintain that the best background for a head coach is having a much stronger background on the defensive side of the ball. A top notch defense requires the ability to adapt to the offense (everyone runs the same offense week to week, defenses must adjust) putting a higher premium on extensive experience multiple jobs running multiple defenses.
The other key to success is recruiting (it seems you can out scheme your way to an effective offense, but a defense is more about the 'Jimmy's and Joe's). In my estimate, the best coach would be a guy with a lot of DC experience who knows what hates to defend and hires that guy. For instance, if Hoke had just admitted he didn't know anything about offense and spent the blank check Brandon gave him on the best guy to run a Denard led team (As I recall there were heaps of Oregonesque coordinators out there who would kill to walk into an experienced Denard job with money to spend on top assistants), we would probably be celebrating Hoke as a genius for not wearing the headset. I'm not sure Rodriguez hiring a stud D coordinator and letting them run the D the way they wanted would have worked because a number of his D recruits didn't pan out, which I believe goes to talent identification.
Please don't excommunicated me from the M family, I still think Harbaugh is the top candidate despite his offensive background!
You've got a pretty good case with "DC who knows what he hates to defend," as that's exactly what Bob Stoops did and he's been pretty successful. On the other hand, the top guys in college right now have a decided offensive bent.
Defensive guys at top 25 schools: Saban, Dantonio, Patterson, Snyder, Whittingham, Mora.
Offensive guys: Meyer, Helfrich, Fisher, Briles, Mullen, Freeze, Rodriguez, Johnson, Richt, Graham, Pinkel, Swinney, Andersen, Malzahn, Harsin, Petrino, Miles, Sarkisian, Kill.
A few of those are tenuous (Swinney was never a coordinator, Kill has been a head coach for so long he's just a head coach); even considering that it seems like the rapid evolution of offense has made OCs preferable to DCs.
And when DCs do have sustained success it's often because they have an oddball system they make work, whether it's Saban's NFL-style pattern matching, Dantonio's hyperaggressive cover 4, or Patterson's 4-2-5. Imposing your will is possible on defense; it seems to be a lot easier on offense.
How long?
I know you are being loaded with questions around the coaching search. My question is for after the search is over. The basis of the question is simple. How long do you think until Michigan is back to at least consistent 8 to 9 win seasons.
My personal belief is that with Harbaugh the chances are quick. But, what if it is not Harbaugh and someone who specializes in spread concepts to their offense, ie.) a Mullen or Herman? Do you think those hires would lead to as heavy an attrition as the Rich Rod transition did? If not how well would the current roster mesh with those schemes. Lastly if one of those two or another spread guy was hired, and the transition isn't a great fit, should we be prepared for Harbaugh, Harbaugh, Harbaugh, all over 4 years from now? Thanks in advance.
There wasn't actually that much Rich Rod-Hoke transition attrition. Most of the guys who left did so because they couldn't stay in school or find playing time. IIRC, Cullen Christian and Ray Vinopal left with Tony Gibson to go to Pitt, but I don't think anyone else could be claimed to have left as direct effect of the changeover. (Check the most recent Attrition Watch and correct me if I'm wrong.) In general, transfers are rare. PSU had their program burned to the ground and open season declared on their players and they only lost a few guys.
Recruits who haven't signed LOIs are a different matter, but if Michigan has a coach in January they'll have about ten spots to fill.
As far as spread/not spread, the differences in personnel there are considerably overstated. OSU and Miss St run power-oriented spread offenses built on being beefy mean guys; that kind of offense would fit well with Michigan's recruits on the OL. Receivers are receivers; Michigan has a couple slot guys. Tailbacks like Brandon Minor and Carlos Hyde function in the spread; Michigan's current crew could do just fine.
QB is the big difference, and it's an issue. I do think Morris has sufficient wheels to be a keep-'em honest threat, and as OSU's shown over the past half-decade or so, a spread oriented system tends to keep reads for shaky QBs relatively simple.
Hoke did a very good job stocking the roster with guys who stick around and they are beginning to mature, so a relatively quick (read: year 2) turnaround is within the realm of possibility.
[After the JUMP: frankly, things get very silly.]

Replacing Horford: Fifth-Year Options Limited
[Original photo: Bryan Fuller]
Jon Horford's unexpected decision to transfer will hurt Michigan's frontcourt depth regardless of the NBA Draft decisions of Mitch McGary and Glenn Robinson III. Senior big men with significant playing experience don't grow on trees, and even though Horford struggled down the stretch he posted very impressive rebounding rates while shooting 57% from the field and easily recording the highest block rate on the team.
John Beilein's made multiple mentions of his willingness to look to transfers as a means to improve the team, and—perhaps knowing what we didn't at the time—he reiterated his stance this week:
Beilein expressed a ready willingness to accept transfer players, depending on NBA attrition in this offseason and anticipating more after next season.
"I would be open to transfers," the coach said. "At Canisius and Richmond and West Virginia, transfers were really important to us. If we have openings and there are transfers who fit who we are, we would be open to that."
ESPN's Jeff Goodman compiled a master list of all currently available transfers. The list is quite long and not particularly useful for this exercise; if Michigan wants to fill the gap Horford leaves, they'll be looking at a grad-year transfer who'll be eligible to play right away—the only potential exception would be a player with a case for a hardship waiver.
Villanova blog VU Hoops helpfully narrowed Goodman's list to the available grad-year transfers, and I've further cut down their table to frontcourt players. The list is short, and not particularly distinguished:
|Jordan Allen
|Jeylani Dublin
|Austin Etherington
|Sommy Ogukwe
|M.J. Rhett
|Tennessee State
|Malik Thomas
|Boston University
Unfortunately for Michigan, none of these players seems to fit the criteria needed to be worth offering, which would be...
- The ability to come in and play more effectively than the current options on the roster. If McGary goes pro, U-M would need someone who could at least compete for a starting spot.
- Any interest in Michigan whatsoever.
None of these players is a true center, which is a tough break. Jordan Allen (88 ORtg for a bad Hofstra squad), Austin Etherington, and Sommy Ogukwe can be eliminated with one look at their respective stat sheets.
Jeylani Dublin could potentially provide depth—he shot 55% from the field with a top-100 OReb rate last season—but the fact that he played less than half of the available minutes for Longwood, KenPom's 343rd-ranked team with a bottom-ten defense, raises some red flags. Malik Thomas is intruiging given his impressive defensive rebounding (18.0 DR%). However, he's just 6'7, 190 pounds, struggles with his shot, and turns the ball over at what I'd expect to be an unacceptably high rate for Beilein's system.
That leaves Tennessee State's M.J. Rhett, and there's no question he'd be a good fit—he's 6'9", 235 pounds, rebounds very well on both ends, blocks a decent number of shots, and finishes efficiently with a knack for getting to the line. As you'd expect, though, he's the most hotly-pursued player on this list, and his list of schools under consideration—Oklahoma State, Tulane, ASU, Miami, Tennessee, and Mississippi, per Goodman—doesn't include Michigan or any team remotely close to the Midwest. He plans to make a decision two weekends from now, and it appears Tennessee and Miami are the two most likely destinations.
A couple other players on Goodman's list of top available transfers($) fit the bill, but one is already ticketed for Ohio State (ex-Temple F Anthony Lee) and the other, Virginia Tech center Trevor Thompson, has already narrowed his list to three Big Ten schools:
Transferring Virginia Tech basketball player Trevor Thompson announced on Twitter Monday morning that, in no order, Big Ten rivals Indiana, Ohio State and Purdue are his top three options with a decision planned in the next couple weeks.
Thompson will be just a sophomore next year, but Goodman mentions the potential for a waiver, presumably due to VT's coaching change. For Michigan's purposes, however, that's a moot point—he's going elsewhere unless the Wolverines come out of nowhere to make a late push, and that would surprise given there's no guarantee Thompson could even play next season.
Unless another fifth-year senior makes a surprise transfer decision like Horford, it appears Michigan will have to go another route to replace him for next season.

Pictured here is my newest completed pedal project. It's the Aion Electronics Nimbus Overdrive. Recently I had built myself a Klon clone and found it useful enough to include in my rig. If you didn't know, the Klon is kind of known for it's prominent mid-hump EQ. At first, I wasn't really too crazy about this, but ultimately I decided that the contrasting nature of the Klon to my other OD tones was a good thing and this secured it a space on my board.
While browsing the Aion Electronics shop, I came across the Nimbus. The one thing I really like about this site is that if a pedal has any interesting history/controversy at all, it will be clearly written about. Well, apparently, the Maxon OD-820 had some, and it had to do with the Klon. Continue reading Maxon OD-820 Clone: Aion Electronics "Nimbus"
Klon Clone Demo
OK, this video is 75% the Klon clone, but I give Amp 11 and the Fuzz Tool Jr. a fair amount of play, I think.
Well, here are my thoughts on the Klon. First off, I have absolutely no first-hand experience with the real thing. But with this Klon clone being a part-for-part reproduction of the original, I trust that I've assembled something that sounds faithful to the genuine article. Continue reading Klon Clone Demo
Klon Centaur Clone: Aion Electronics "Refractor"
Shortly after sharing about my new mini-board (here), I acquired a Pluetoneum Chi-Wah-Wah V2 (careful…oddly nsfw) to complete and maximize the usefulness of my new mini setup. I didn't really feel like posting about it, although I may do a more lengthy demo in the future. Other than that acquisition, it's all been Boss mods and new complete builds. This one pictured above is one of my proudest completed projects.

Pedaltrain Metro-16
Here's my mini pedalboard mounted on a Pedaltrain Metro-16, one of their new offerings for 2015.
Previously, I had the old Pedaltrain Mini. Apparently, my model had gone through a couple of revisions. One of them is publicly known and visually obvious. The other, more or less nobody knows about and you really can't tell just by looking at it. What it comes down to is that my Mini doesn't accept any non-daisychain power supplies.

My First Hot Air Balloon Ride

Pedalboard as of 06/17/15
This is the latest version of my pedalboard. The newest addition, my Sho 'Nuff boost in the bottom right corner.
Here's a closer shot of my drive section. Below is the complete signal path. Continue reading Pedalboard as of 06/17/15
Updated My Sho 'Nuff Boost
The innards of this Sho 'Nuff (I really don't like this name) boost are the same as the one I previous posted about. As I was trying to fit the original one onto my board, I ran into an issue where the DC jack located on top was problematic. So I ordered another enclosure, redrilled all the holes, and moved the DC jack to the side. As you can see, I also went with a different color scheme, which I'm liking much more than the mint green w/ black knobs that I had before. It was too late for me to do any rearrangement on my board, but I'm fairly certain it will fit now.
First Pedal Build – Sho 'Nuff Boost
Here's my first ever guitar pedal build. In the past I've modded my gear and replaced components here and there, but I've never built one "from scratch." The PCB was purchased from guitarpcb.com and this is the Sho 'Nuff Boost. Continue reading First Pedal Build – Sho 'Nuff Boost

Applies to
Microsoft Office System
As more and more computers come standard with a CD-ROM drive, burning your data onto a CD makes sense and is replacing floppy disks as the removable media people use to create backup copies and to share files with other people. For example, you might want to burn a CD to preserve the digital photographs you took on vacation instead of taking up precious space on your hard drive. Or you might want to keep a digital record of your house inventory on a CD and store that CD in a safety deposit box. The reasons for putting your data on a CD are endless.
Important: Microsoft Windows 2000 does not have built-in CD-burning capability. This procedure applies only to Microsoft Windows® XP, which provides basic CD-burning capability. For additional functionality, you can use CD-burning programs available from third-party software vendors. For more information on these products, visit the Windows XP Catalog, click the Software tab, point to Utilities, and then click CD-ROM.
Copy files and folders to a CD
Insert a blank, writable CD into the CD recorder. Use one of the following:
Recordable compact disc (CD-R)
Rewritable compact disc (CD-RW)
With rewritable CDs, you can copy data to and erase data from the CD multiple times.
Click Start, and then click My Computer.
Click the files or folders that you want to copy to the CD.
To select more than one file, hold down the CTRL key while you click the files you want. Then, under File and Folder Tasks, click Copy this file, Copy this folder, or Copy the selected items.
If the files are located in My Pictures, under Picture Tasks, click Copy to CD or Copy all items to CD, and then go to Step 5.
In the Copy Items dialog box, click the CD recording drive, and then click Copy.
In My Computer, double-click the CD recording drive. Windows displays a temporary area where the files are located before they are copied to the CD. Verify that the files and folders that you intend to copy to the CD appear under Files Ready to be Written to the CD.
Under CD Writing Tasks, click Write these files to CD. Windows displays the CD Writing Wizard. Follow the instructions in the wizard.
Do not try to copy more files to the CD than it will hold. Check the CD packaging to see the capacity of each CD. For files too large to fit on a CD, you can copy files to a recordable DVD (DVD-R or DVD+R) or rewritable DVD (DVD-RW or DVD+RW). However, Windows XP does not support copying to a DVD, so you have to use DVD authoring software.
Make sure that you have enough disk space on your hard disk to store the temporary files that are created during the CD-writing process. For a standard CD, Windows reserves up to 700 megabytes (MB) of the available free space. For a high-capacity CD, Windows reserves up to 1 gigabyte (GB) of the available free space.
After you copy files or folders to the CD, you can view the CD to confirm that the files have been copied.

Plantain Fritters (Andre' Style)
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 3 mins
The best breakfast dish you'll ever get your hands on. It's simple to make and tastes real good. It's one of those meals you can grab on the go or even use for lunch or a snack. You can even jazz up the dish by adding your best topping like pancake syrup.
Ingredients Nutrition
For frying
- 1⁄4 cup oil
For batter
- 1⁄4 cup minced onion (optional)
- 1 cup flour, sifted
- 2 eggs
- 4 tablespoons water or 4 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
For filling
- 2 big plantains, sliced
- Prepare pot/skillet for frying the fritters.
- Combine all the batter mixture together and whisk until well blended.
- (Slice plantains to your desire. I slice my plantains round, similar to potato chips--just be careful not to do them too thin).
- Dip plantains into the batter, allow the extra mixture to run off. Fry until each side is golden brown.
Most Helpful
Excellent and quick meal. I would generally say that it serves 2 people per plantain used. Onion powder works instead of minced onion.
Tried this in 2009 and again today. I guess we just aren't plantain people. My eldest liked them this time, but my middle child and myself couldn't finish them. They smelled great cooking! I'm not putting a rating because I don't think it would be fair seeing as how it's the food item itself rather than the recipe that we're having difficulty with. Thank you so much for providing an easy recipe for us to try a new-to-us food!!
Wow, all I can say is wow. I love plantain's and this is an awesome recipe. Really enjoyed the addition of the minced onions and vanilla in the batter. They were wonderful, crisp and tender, sweet and flavorful. Thank you so much for sharing my new favorite plantain recipe. I will be making this one again and again. I can't wait to make this for my family.

White Girl by Rashid Johnson (2007)
Rashid Johnson's nude at James Harris Gallery this month (review coming up in this week's edition) is called White Girl, which in itself is a pretty terrific art-historical joke.
But she reverses tradition in another way that's so obvious, you can overlook it.
These are the most famous and influential reclining nudes in art history.
Sleeping Venus by Giorgione (ca. 1507)
Venus of Urbino by Titian (ca. 1538)
Grand Odalisque by Ingres (1814)
Olympia by Manet (1863)
Here's the exception at that level of fame, but the mirror device turns her around in your mind anyway:

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyThis is the seventh crime novel by Grimes, an American who writes wih assurance on the exploits of Scotland Yard's Richard Jury and his titled friend Malcolm Plant. They meet at The Deer Leap, a pub in Ashdown Dean where people and pets have been dying ``accidentally.'' Plant focuses his attentions on a solitary, 15-year-old girl who calls herself Carrie Fleet. She's an amnesiac, rescued from London lowlifes who had found the child and were using her to collect government money for her support. Carrie's unlikely savior is a baroness, living on drunken fantasies in the decayed splendor of her late husband's estate. In an isolated corner of the grounds, Carrie maintains a sanctuary for abused animals. Her zealous care makes her a suspect in the destruction of the local fox-hunting headquarters, but Jury casts his net elsewhere. In the last act of the witty and deeply moving drama, retribution for heinous crime is exacted. Here gentle Plant plays a role so utterly unexpected that readers will feel its impact for a long time.

It ended very abruptly, but I'd buy it again anyway!
Ok...... cats don't say Oh my gosh.
A great story but a couple of little quibbles. I didn't really understand the point of the earlier deaths of the animals. I don't understand how the responsible got everyone away from the lab for the showdown. I didn't like how open ended the fate of the ultimate victim was. That said, I loved that Carole-Ann and Mrs. Wasserman had actual roles to play. I loved that Melrose got his hands dirty and even made a bit of a connection with a child (he never seemed to like children much in the earlier novels). Several of the characters were written as almost completely unlikeable, and that led to a lack of sympathy for their plights. But, I did like the character development of some of the characters (Polly finally seems to be coming along). The book club edition was formatted well with no obvious spelling/grammar errors.
I like it so far!!! Keep going! Characters//

 Age/ 15 moons

Melodystar and Searingwhisper padded along the quiet thunder path.
 They where patrolling to find a place to settle their small close-knit clan. Melodystar saw a small patch of brambles that looked like it had a path behind it.
 "Searingwhisper!" She called, padding towards the brambles.
"I may have found where we may be able to live!"
 Searingwhisper padded over, his face showing the fear and disapointment that had haunted him his whole life.
"Are you sure?" He mewed, prepared for disapointment.
 "Positive!" Melodystar called, bravely poking her head through the brambles.
 "It looks uninhabit-Oh. My. Gosh." She broke off her own sentence, staring at the huge clearing.
 "Searingwhisper!" She mewed, her voice full of awe.
 The clearing was beautiful! You could see the stars through the dense patching of overhanging tree limbs, there was a small sapling in the middle of the clearing, and Melodystar even saw a few mice scrambling around and making nests.
 Searingwhisper poked his head in and gasped. He saw everything his mate did, and knew it was perfect.
 Melodystar carefully wiggled through the brables and paded to the sapling. She then slashed a crooked music note in its soft bark.
 Searingwhisper followed Melodystar revrently. Melodystar leaped up on a tree that had fallen and bent in a perfect half circle. "I declare this clearing as Melodyclans, now and here after! May all cats who enter this sacred place of peace forever remember the bravery and courage that Melodystar and Searingwhisper, the founders of this clan! Searingwhisper!" Searingwhisper stepped forward. "I annouce you Searingwhisper, but not Searingwhisper the warrior, but Searingwhisper, deputy of Melodyclan!" Searingwhisper bowed his head, feeling that all the cats of Starclan were calling his name...

A high-sensitivity vector two-dimensional (2-D) magnetic sensor system for low magnetic field measurements has been realized and tested. The system, made in PCB technology, consists of a double-axis Fluxgate magnetic sensor and the readout electronic circuitry, based on second-harmonic detection. The amorphous magnetic materials Vitrovac 6025X (25 μm thick) and Vitrovac 6025Z (20 μm thick) were used as the ferromagnetic core of the sensor. By applying a sinusoidal excitation current having a 450-mA peak at 10 kHz with Vitrovac 6025Z, the measured magnetic sensitivity was about 1.25 mV/μT. This value seems to be adequate for the Earth's magnetic field detection (±60 μT). The full-scale linearity error was about 1.5%. By using the thicker Vitrovac 6025X and a sinusoidal excitation current having a 600-mA peak at 10 kHz, a maximum sensitivity of approximately 1.68 mV/μT with a linearity error of about 1.55% full scale in the range of ±60 μT were measured. Due to the use of commercially available ferromagnetic materials, the vector 2-D magnetic sensor system presented is characterized by a very simple fabrication process, thus allowing low-cost devices to be designed.

Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney gestures during a campaign event at Horizontal Wireline Services on Tuesday, July 17, 2012 in Irwin, Pa. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio (AP) -- Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney says the contraceptive coverage mandate in the federal health care law sets "a dangerous and unfortunate precedent."
At a town hall meeting in Ohio this week, Romney said President Barack Obama's administration is usurping religious liberty by requiring employers to provide insurance coverage that violates their consciences.
Roman Catholics have been the most prominent opponents of the mandate, but Romney said all Americans should consider themselves Catholics on this issue and "push back."
He pledged to get rid of the health care law and its birth control mandate if he's elected president.

Bill seeks to legalize fish and game donations
Last Wednesday (4-1-15), eight legislators introduced a bill that would allow Alaskans to donate sport- and subsistence-harvested fish and game to non-profit meal programs. Under House Bill 179, schools, senior centers, and other non-profits could legally serve donated fish and game, such as moose, venison, caribou, and salmon. Alaska law presently bars the sale of such foods.
