Could you Adam n' Eve IT!!!!!!!!!
3-2 to Spurs at Old Trafford!!!
Will have to regrow all my hair and probably dye it black again after, but wow! Well done Lads and AVB
Now I need to check at least 20 different websites just to make sure what I saw was no dream :PSort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

still grinning...even work was fun today!!!
Ahhh, so I'm not going crazy...any manager worth his salt will be able to set his troops up to take advantage of that (United just didn't have the killer finisher as in past encounters...well they did, but we kept them relatively quiet - did you see the clattering tackle Gallas gave RVP!).
My problem with the set up is that its reactive...the supply comes in a steady stream, and that's what we need to stop.
Phew!!! Great!!! So it was not a dream! :)
I thought we were outstanding from Kick Off, Sandro & Dembele really bossed the middle superbly in the first half (I think they could be one of the truly great Central Midfield pairings) with Bale and Lennon making some really excellent runs and scaring the knickers off ManUtds defence.
Agreed Kentish! Vertonghen is a gem! I love his forward runs and his coolness in his position be it CB or LB. And with Caulker doing so well, Gallas really proving many wrong with his energy, drive and stature, Kaboul on the road to recovery, I think BAE may have a real challenge to reclaim his place.
I think you're right SB... At the moment it is between Vertonghen and Dembele that could be our man of the season. Both suits me fine :)
Sandro is getting better and better and seems to be really clicking with Moussa better than he did with Modric. They complement one another more it seems.
Joe was right to point out the hard work Defoe put in at OT. It was very easy to forget him as he didn't really get any clear chances on goal. I have noticed though that this season he seems to work alot harder off the ball and stretches defences and creates space for team mates. His part in our 3rd goal was immense, his strength and determination to hold the ball until support came and then releasing Bale was fantastic.
The goals he's scored for both club and country already this season really seems to have given him a new lease of life and it is clear to see he is enjoying every moment of his time on the pitch. The hunger is back with our Defoe, long may it last!
I think if I had to be critical about our performance, it would be that we sat back too much too early. Right from the start of the second half we seemed to revert to type and gave posession away far too cheaply and invited the onslaught rather than try keep a cool head and frustrate Utd and make them work to get the ball. Like SB I was convinced even at 90 mins that we would at best finish at 3-3 and feared 4-3.
Some may say we were lucky with that penalty incident, but we were more than owed that with all the c.r.a.p.p.y decisions that have had to endure over the years against ManUtd. So I don't feel we were at all fortunate to come away with 3 points.
Well done to the ref Foy (He of that Stoke game last season) for not succumbing to Fergie and the crowd and keeping the game fair and flowing.
Also for remembering that it's a league game that does not require Extra Fergie Time that is usually mandatory if Utd are not leading after 90 ;)
As for Fergie! His comments post-match were unsportsmanlike, shameful, embarassing and alltogether hilarious! It seems he truly believes his teams require special treatment and outside assistance beyond the 11 in red.
Four minutes were more than fair as I only recall a minute or two where Gallas needed a new contact lense put in.
He got it wrong in the first half, that's it!

Yes triffic result, we had some "good" luck @ OT for a change but very proud of our teams performance.
ESPN had stats of 62 to 38% to Spurs at half-time. Showed how much we bossed the first half.
Here's hoping the AVB doubters will cut him a little slack.

hmmmmmmmm just got up off the pub floor with a massive hangover thought the last 12 hrs had been a dream until i saw MOTD and OMG it wasn't a dream we beat manure on their home turf 2-3.
I was impressed with our gung ho play in the first half.
Take nothing away from Man Utd they where poor in the first half but the second half was mainly all Utd we parked the bus and clung on for dear life.
Rooney and Scholes where running the show for them.
I have turned grey and lost alot of hair after that game and now have a dodgy ticker but i wouldnt have it any other way Spurs till i die and i came very close last night after that game lol.
Final note i found found AVB somewhat endearing last night with his celebrations and may have started to warm to him just a bit.
It's definitely a Spurs wonderland, just feels so good, closest we ever got to beating manyoo in the league previously of course was under ramos at home, only seeing a last minute deflection off daws from a corner. Thank God Foy didn't fold, Lady Luck was with us, Finally !

Morning fellow yids.
Finally got that monkey off our back.
Wathced the game at the pub and thoroghly enjoyed the first half with the beer flowing well.Second half all seemed a bit blurry and as utd seemed to take control and the nerves started to kick in.
Was hoping we could get more control of the game and beat utd in true style,but as usual they came back with real desire in front of thier home fans and the last 30 mins seemed like 3 hours and when that final whistl blew i jumped up and down like i'd just won the lottery.
After that is all a bit blurry now with the hangover to go with it.
Hope we can push on with a decent run of games as we all know; its tough to try and get into a CL spot.

Definitely not dreaming Sledge :-D
Cracking win at OT, despite the poor 2nd half performance. The Mancs often win despite playing badly but I'll take all 3 points at OT all day long however we play.
Another Vertonghen goal - I reckon he'll be our Player of the Season. He really is a cracking player. Glad to see Dempsey opening his account too.
COYS - let's hope this is the kickstart to the season we need to maintain our push for CL footie.

I didn't see it apart from the MoTD highlights, but the radio commentary made it sound as though Sandro was immense.
Absolutely brilliant result - another '....we haven't won there since....' gone.
maybe player of the season will be between dembele & verthoghen kentish?
at least fergie wasnt a bad loser!
"They gave us four minutes [injury time], that's an insult to the game. It denies you a proper chance to win a football match. There were six substitutions, the trainer came on, so that's four minutes right away and the goalkeeper must have wasted about two or three minutes and they took their time at every goal kick. That's obvious to everyone today and it's a flaw in the game that the referee is responsible for time keeping. It's ridiculous that it's 2012 and the referee still has control of that."
even if the 90th min i thought we would lose 4-3!
well done lads & avb of course!
but of a crazy game. some awful defending but who cares.
another memorable bale goal to the collection.
& thats bale who has missed training all week because he has been tucked up in bed with the flu!
thats me in a good mood for at least a month!
living in manchester makes it even more fun!
best win in ages!

A draft agreement that resolves years of acrimony and multimillion-dollar court battles between Bullis Charter School and the Los Altos School District was unanimously approved Monday night.
The charter school will drop four lawsuits, most filed over what facilities the district has offered Bullis in previous years, and the district will drop one suit. The agreement also provides the charter school with specific terms -- down to numbers of portable classrooms and days its students may use the playground, gym, tennis courts and fields -- for five years.
How each board arrived at its decision was a study in contrasts.
The district's Board of Trustees followed a roughly hour-long closed session with a public vote at about 7:15 p.m. The charter's Board of Directors, on the other hand, reached consensus during a predominantly closed-session meeting that ended just before midnight.
First announced on July 2, the agreement was fleshed out by a handful of members from each board over the past month. Monday marked the first time it had been shared with all board members.
"We're working our way through these documents," Jennifer Carolan, vice chairwoman of the charter's Board of Directors, said during the portion of the meeting that was open to the public.
"This is the first time we have seen some of these because of the Brown Act," she added, referring to the state's open meeting law. "We need to make sure we do our job and closely review them."
Across town, district Board Member Doug Smith said he was "very happy" about the agreement. The conflict between Bullis and the district has been an issue during his five years in office.
"I'm excited about the prospect of putting that to bed, so our staff can spend all of our time focusing on the kids," he said.
According to Smith, the district spent $1.7 million on Bullis-related legal fees in the past school year alone.
The agreement was nurtured in part by both sides' desire to pass a $150 million bond measure in November to fund more schoolrooms. The district is grappling with enrollment that has increased 25 percent in 10 years. And short of building its own facility, Bullis must rely on voter goodwill to realize its goal of having its own standalone campus.
Los Altos Hills Mayor John Radford, who stopped by the Bullis board meeting, called the agreement "historic." He said the conflict, now a decade old, has turned neighbor against neighbor.
"It's been a long, long time coming, but I think it's a great agreement to have," Radford told The Daily News.
"Initially, it was just about the kids, but it's now become a much broader community issue and the community needs to heal and move on," he continued. "Thank God we have this in place."

'Fat Albert' to come down after 33 years
Published: Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 6:36 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 6:36 a.m.
KEY WEST - Officials say a military blimp that's been tethered in the Florida Keys for more than three decades is coming down for good.
An internal email by Exelis Systems Corp. — the defense contractor that operates the blimps nationally — says Air Force blimp known as "Fat Albert" that hovers over Cudjoe Key will end its 33-year flight on March 15.
The Key West Citizen (http://bit.ly/UlVYjF ) reports that the blimp — a Tethered Aerostat Radar System — is part of an Air Force program that is being cut. The Air Force told Exelis employees on Jan. 15 that TARS sites all along the U.S. southern border will be eliminated.
The 250,000 cubic-foot blimp was the first such aerostat used by the Air Force. U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Coast Guard use the blimps in counter-drug trafficking operations.

Please check the status of this specification in Launchpad before editing it. If it is Approved, contact the Assignee or another knowledgeable person before making changes.
This specification proposes exporting an environment variable to all job processes so that it is possible for scripts and binaries to determine which job they are being run within.
Jobs will frequently use libraries of functions or helper tools that may wish to adjust their behaviour depending on the job being run. In particular, initctl may wish to act on the job it's being called from by default.
Use cases
- Common function or binary that changes behaviour for a certain job.
Allow calling of start or stop directly from a job without having to specify the job name.
The scope of this specification is limited to the addition and use of this environment variable.
The name of the job is placed in the UPSTART_JOB environment variable for any process.
initctl commands that accept a job will default to UPSTART_JOB if none is given.
pre-start script [ $DISABLED ] && stop end script post-stop script [ $RESPAWN ] && start end script
The environment variable will be seeded by modifying process_setup_environment in init/process.c.
start_action in util/initctl.c will be modified to check this variable when no arguments are given, and only error if the variable is also missing.
Data preservation and migration

Hi gembo. It can take a while to come out of your system but it really varies depending how long you were on it and from woman to woman anyway. It's really impossible to predict how long it will take you to get pregnant but sometimes if you have a baby it can mean you'll have better luck getting pregnant in future.
Posted: Fri Jun 21, 2013 9:44 pm

I really hope it doesn't take as long as before but with only two shots of it too might be in my favour a little. (Here's hoping!) thanks for the reply, I know it varies as my cousin missed one and got pregnant straight away! lucky thing lol I was just looking for experience really and to see how long it took others to get pregnant afterwards. Thanks again Xx

I will so laugh if we fell pg together the same again haha. Just a shame we live far apart as we could go do things together!! Hopefully wont take too long for you to try.

What are your thoughts on Trent's bookstore opening? Leave your comments below.
A teen in Tennessee is determined to go to college. So much so, he's started a business to fund his dream.
Stephanie Langston tells us what he's doing to make that all possible.
In the historic community of Nolensville, nestled inside the antique barn, is Trent's bookstore.
It may be easy to pass by with only one small red sign in the window, but the opportunity is one Trent Crowthers wasn't going to let slide.
"I decided I needed to find a way to try to get some more money for college."
At 17 years old Crowthers decided to follow in his father's footsteps and open a bookstore.
"We started really small, just that one side over there, and then they gave us a deal for the whole room, and we got books in the whole place now."
Paperbacks, hardbacks, collector editions, and the like fill the shelves.
"This is just a teeny amount compared to all the books we have."
Crowthers parents invested close to a $600 for the teen to buy thousands of books off of Ebay and open his own business.
"We went down to Knoxville and we got 14,000 books."
And while some say bookstores are dying, Crowthers believes the life of a book will never end, especially with prices like his.
"Most normal books, if it's a paperback it $3, a hardback it's $4.
He hopes those few dollars will add up to college tuition and when it's time to go, he wants to pass the business on.
"What I'll probably do is I'll leave it to my little brother and then that way he can build up more for his college. He'll have more time to save up more money."
Crowthers says he hopes to attend Ohio State or Georgia State and become a doctor.

Jay Mohr is backtracking after comments he made about Alyssa Milano's weight in a radio interview last month caught fire online.
Eight days after Milano called Mohr out for his comments, Mohr responded to both Milano and blogger Perez Hilton and tried to apologize for his remarks. "She's stunning. I mistakenly thought the absurdity of what I was saying would have been taken as a joke. #fail," he tweeted.
The beef started after Mohr, 43, and Milano, 41, attended a NASCAR event in Las Vegas on Dec. 6 and Mohr later made some less-than-kind remarks about the actress' figure. "She was one of the presenters. ... She's very tiny. In height," Mohr said of Milano, according to the New York Daily News. "It seems like she had a baby and said, 'I don't really give a sh--' ... I read it on her gut."
More of the biggest celebrity feuds
Mohr then referred to Milano as "Melissa" instead of her real name. "'Melissa what's-her-name'" was very nice but didn't look so great," he added. "Somebody sat in the director's chair and was not wearing Spanx and I was like, 'Jesus Christ.'"
On Christmas Day, Milano shot back at Mohr on Twitter. "So sorry you felt the need to publicly fat-shame me," she tweeted at Mohr. "Be well and God Bless. Please send my love to your beautiful wife."
Milano has yet to respond to Mohr's apology. Do you think their feud is over? What do you think of Mohr's mea culpa?

Could Cord Cutters (and Lena Dunham Fans) One Day Get a Crack at HBO?
By Keach Hagey and Martin Peers
It's a cord-cutter's dream: the chance to get HBO without having to pay for the full television package. Comments by HBO's new chief executive, Richard Plepler, on Thursday night suggest that while a standalone HBO broadband offering won't be available anytime soon, HBO may be at least pondering the possibility.
Appearing on stage at a New Republic event, Mr. Plepler was asked by a young woman who described herself as a member of the "Lena Dunham, Millennial generation" how HBO would reach people who, like many of her friends, don't have televisions or pay-TV subscriptions but want to watch Ms. Dunham's "Girls," one of HBO's hottest new shows, legally.
"We are going to get you a little raise where you work so that you can afford the product," Mr. Plepler joked. He made clear that an unwillingness to alienate HBO's distributors – cable and satellite operators that carry the product – would prevent the channel from going direct to consumers anytime soon. But he also acknowledged that this means HBO is missing out on some potential customers.
"We recognize that there's a piece of the audience out there that, if they could get HBO without going through a pay package, we would get it."
For the moment, he said, HBO needs to make the product so valuable "that it's worth the subscription." But then he dropped a subtle hint that HBO is internally debating the issue, mentioning that he wants to foster a corporate culture that allows for debate — including "an environment that challenges the status quo."
The rest of his comments are worth quoting in full:
"At the same you have to keep your eyes on your north stars, which define your business. Part of the north star reality for us is, there is billions and billions of dollars in revenues that are part of our distribution landscape, and to simply circumvent that, even though we understand there is a part of our audience which would subscribe to the network if they didn't have to have a cable package or a satellite package, just doesn't make business sense for us to do. Doesn' t mean we are not mindful that the problem exists.
Every day there are people now thinking about what are the variations on the theme. How can we work with our partners to do that? Is there a broadband-only play, with HBO Go, with our partners, that might be appealing?"

The body was reported at 9:45 a.m. after being discovered behind Out Reach Ministry, 1854 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Way, according to the Sarasota Police Department. Police would not disclose who found the body.
The death has not been ruled a homicide, but is being investigated as suspicious. Genevieve Judge, agency spokeswoman, would not say why it is considered suspicious.
Police are working to identify the woman and contact her next-of-kin before releasing her name.
"We don't know who she is or how she was killed," Judge said.
An autopsy will be performed to determine the cause and manner of death.
Crime scene tape blocked off part of the sidewalk, an adjacent building and a house behind the ministry. Trees shielded the back side of the property.
People crowded around the white building, accented with the words: "Love, happiness, peace" painted in yellow and black between the windows.
The Rev. Wesley Tunsdall Jr. of Out Reach Ministry was leaning against a nearby light pole. He said he received a call Thursday morning about the incident. The ministry was not open when the body was discovered.
Tunsdall said the nonprofit opened about a year ago with the purpose of fostering "unity in the community," by helping the needy in Newtown.
"We are out in Newtown to help our brothers and sisters who have given up, who have lost hope," Tunsdall said. "We want to reach out and help each other because of things like this here."
If anyone saw suspicious activity in the last 24 hours in the area, they can call Sarasota police at 316-1199.

It's expensive to live in Silicon Valley, and for years developers have pointed to the region's many parks and conserved landscapes as a major reason for the high cost of housing. If land is conserved it cannot be used for homes, the argument goes, and this forces up housing costs, pricing moderate income buyers out of the market.
It may be a logical argument, but it not a valid one, according to recent research out of Stanford University, which released a story in mid-March:
In a study conducted by the university's Bill Lane Center for the American West, executive director Jon Christensen, sociology graduate student Carrie Denning and landscape ecologist Robert McDonald analyzed whether land conservation efforts in Silicon Valley – which has about 116,000 acres of protected parks, forests, waterfronts and wildlife refuges – have hurt housing development.
Their findings, published online in the journal Biological Conservation, suggest that land protection may not have much of an impact on the number of housing units available in the region. That's because most of the protected land isn't suitable for development, they say.
Yesterday, the San Francisco Chronicle published its own story on the Stanford research.
Using a complicated measure to determine how development would have proceeded if more than 100,000 acres set aside for parks, wetlands and protected forest and wildlife areas had been left open for construction, the researchers found that only about 6.5 percent more housing units would have been built . . .
About 41 percent of those 51,000 new dwellings would have been in areas where the typical house is on a half-acre lot and sells for $1.5 million, which wouldn't provide the affordable housing the Bay Area sorely needs.
As the Chronicle story suggests, the lack of land suitable for new homes is one more reason to increase the density of housing in already developed areas, especially those served by public transportation.

Yarn Profile: Northwest Angora
Note: Unfortunately, as of January 2003 Northwest Angora's Web site has been discontinued. Northwest Angora may be gone, but this review can still help you understand what to look for in an angora yarn.
First Impressions
The fiber combination is subtle and unusual: angora for softness, merino wool for elasticity and strength, and a smidgen of silk for good measure. There's nothing scratchy or irritating here. Northwest Angora currently only offers this specific blend in grey and silver, but please don't let that deter you.
I can honestly say that this yarn is more satisfying to work with than cashmere. If you think of it that way, the $12 you'll pay per skein is a true bargain.
Learn more by reading our profile of Northwest Angora and its founder, Gretchen Beedle.
Knitting Up
The merino and silk tame the angora fluff, helping give it an overall solid, substantial feel while maintaining a buttery softness.
Knitting was much too slippery with Addi Turbos, so I switched to Clover bamboo needles, which grabbed the yarn perfectly.
Blocking / Washing
There was no fading, or if there were, I couldn't tell since the yarn is light grey. However, the swatches did expand slightly to a gauge of 21 sts per 4 inch square (from a previous 22 sts). Chances are you'll be using this yarn for scarves or other small items where gauge won't be so critical, but do keep this expansion in mind.
The swatches softened and became increasingly fluffy with wear. The only sign of age came as occasional flecks of silk separated slightly from the yarn.
Because of its lightness and moderate loft, this yarn would have only a medium drape. Still, any type of textured stitches or lacework would show nicely.
As for its use, the $12/skein pricetag is somewhat limiting. It'd be best used for socks, scarves, or anything else you'd wear against your skin. If you just use it for special details on other projects, one skein can go a long way.

Many car purchases start with one decision: New or used? It's hard to remember a better time to buy either. There are plenty of good vehicles out there either way.
In the end, the decision to buy new or used boils down to what you can afford and what will give you peace of mind.
If you're on a tight budget, then buying a used car gets you the most vehicle for the money. You can count on one hand the number of new cars that list for less than $14,000. For less than half the price of the average new car, you can buy a 3- or 4-year-old used vehicle that is larger and loaded with more features than a small, bare-bones new one. But buying a used vehicle has its own risks, which could cost you over the life of the vehicle. The fact is, you are buying a vehicle that someone else has owned and driven. You don't know how it's been driven or how well it's been cared for. A used vehicle will almost certainly require maintenance and possibly expensive repairs sooner than a new one, and those repairs probably won't be covered by a warranty.
The Case for Buying New
For some people, buying used isn't an option; they want a brand-spanking-new car. They want to select the color and the features in it. There's definitely a pride of ownership and peace of mind in being a vehicle's first owner. Some other advantages include:
The Case for Buying Used
If you're not married to the idea of buying a new car, used vehicles have their own appeal:

So i wasn't born a wedding photographer, big deal.
But a lot has changed since then(obviously). A couple of years ago, i was just your average Nigerian dude with no particular interest in wedding photography, to me wedding photographers just made up the numbers at weddings. So much so that when i was to get married it wasn't even in my budget, my parents offered to take care of it and i was glad they did. They got this old looking dude to cover the event and i couldn't even be bothered at the time, to me it was free, so it was ok, i just smiled into the camera when i was asked to and prayed the flash from the old dude didn't blind my eyes.
The wedding pictures came out a few weeks after and they were ok, i didn't make any fuss about bad composition, bad lighting, the harsh flash and the blurry images, to me i had an album for my wedding and that was all that mattered. I didn't even touch the album again for months to come.
Then i was online one day and met a guy called Mike Colon,a wedding photographer, OMG !!!!, my whole life changed, this couldn't be wedding photography could it? Simply speaking i was blown away. I spent the next few weeks going through the works of Mike, Joe Bussink, Bambi Cantrell, Yervant and instantly i knew i had found my calling.
I wanted to be a wedding photographer for the rest of my life, i couldn't see myself doing anything else, i began to invest in books and DVDs and became friends with the top wedding photographers in Nigeria, the Body-Lawsons, Emma Ologeh, Mike Iyang and a few others, i began to learn from everywhere and everyone, i even traveled out of the country a few times to rub shoulders with the big boys internationally.
Why do i write this post? Well a Fan just posted a comment on my Facebook fan page and i thought i take it from there.
You need to get a proper photographer to cover your wedding, you need to take out the time to fall in love with photography (if only for just that one event) trust me you will thank me later for this tip, i look at the beautiful albums i turn out for clients now on a regular basis and compare them to what i have from my own wedding and its almost an irony.
A bride recently changed her wedding date, so she could fit into my calender, that tells me she knows what she wants for the main day, she can't afford to get it wrong the first time, for weddings there is no second chance.
Xsightn would love to shoot your wedding, its what we do best.
Book Xsightn
And because a picture is worth a thousand word, here's a sneak into what i am currently working on.
Have a great day.

Infants are not born with normal vision and within the first six to nine years of life, children have to learn how to see properly. But if a condition like stabismus (a misaligned eye) or amblyopia (poor vision in one eye from disuse) occurs, a child's brain will never learn how to see correctly.
Pediatric ophthalmologists at the University of Michigan say four to five percent of children under 12-years-old will develop a serious eye problem.
Amblyopia is the most difficult to diagnose and treat, because there are no symptoms for parents to see, but if it's caught early, it can be corrected.
Eyes that are not aligned, cross-eyed or turn outward; eyes that don't work together to follow a target or eyes that don't look in the same direction at the same time are signs of amblyopia.
Surgery and glasses can usually correct the problem, provided it's caught before the child reaches age four to six.
For more information: www.kellogg.umich.edu/conditions/pediatric/amblyopia.htm
wilx.com: Extended Web Coverage
January is National Eye Care Month.
Common Vision Problems
People with myopia have eyes that are a little longer than normal, measuring from the front of the eyeball to the back. This extra length means that light focuses in front of the retina instead of on it.
Glasses or contacts can easily correct this problem.
Someone with significant farsightedness will need glasses to correct his or her vision.
To be able to see well either close up or far away, the person needs contact lenses or glasses.
Presbyopia can be corrected with reading glasses.
Floaters are usually normal, however, they can be a warning sign of eye problems such as retinal detachment, especially if they happen with light flashes.
Dry eyes cause itching, burning, or even some loss of vision. A humidifier or eye drops may help.
Cataracts form slowly and cause no pain, redness, or tearing in the eye.
If a cataract becomes large or thick, it can usually be removed by surgery.
If detected early, glaucoma often can be controlled and blindness prevented.
Most people with glaucoma have no early symptoms or pain from increased pressure.
It can cause itching, burning, tearing, or a feeling of something in the eye. Conjunctivitis can be caused by infection or allergies.
Anything that happens to blur the vision or cause the eyes to be crossed during childhood may cause amblyopia.
Because there are several causes of amblyopia, the treatment must match the problem. Glasses fix some problems. Surgery may be needed for cataracts, droopy eyelids or crossed eyes.
To make the child use the weaker eye, a patch can be put over the stronger eye. Patches may be used all day or part of the day, depending on the child's age and vision.

Monday, October 8, 2012
A year ago, the Greenbrier volleyball team was feeling it. The Lady Wolfpack was rolling along and imagining state rings.
Then they ran into a buzz saw in the Sweet Sixteen and that was it.
Don't think these ladies have forgotten.
"Last year we made it to the Sweet Sixteen, so we would definitely like to surpass that," said senior setter Hayley Hughes. "Certainly State is a goal we would love to achieve."
They aren't just throwing pennies in the well with the wish of a state title. At 31-1, Greenbrier is easily the most accomplished team in the area so far, and it has everything to do with the mental make up of this squad.
Head Coach Debbie Born said, "They have the attitude of 'Let's just get it done. Let's have fun and let's get it done, and let's have a great year.' So, they know what the expectations are."
They've been getting it done, even if the voters haven't noticed. The Lady Wolfpack has the best record in 5A, but they're only ninth in the rankings.
Of course, they see that as an advantage.
"I think being ranked so low in the state is a good thing because they won't be expecting how well we can play," said senior libero Sarah Sather. "And I think we've definitely proven ourselves to be higher than No. 9."
No doubt, the Greenbrier ladies are chasing some unfinished business, but accomplishing that state championship goal isn't the only thing that matters.
Sather said, "I would love to make it to State; State Finals, Final Four; I would push for Final Four, but I'm very happy with how we've played so far."
Hughes added, "As long as we played our hearts out and did the best that we could on the court, then we'll always come out as winners."

1. My cat: 10:08
My cat's generally psychotic nature can be explained by the fact that when we found her, she was this ant-covered starving little ball of fur trapped inside our bathroom wall. She's always been a little bit distrustful, quick to bat at others. It didn't help that my sister liked teasing her and that I'm the only cat person in the house. As a result, she has a well-deserved reputation for being snooty and more than a little ill-tempered.
But she lets me blow raspberries into her fur, and she sneaks under the covers and curls up with me when I'm sleeping. It's been good seeing my cat again. She was so scrawny when I arrived, but it's good to see that she's gained a little weight during my stay.

2. Home: 10:35
Most people take vacations to escape reality. I took this vacation to get back in touch with it. It's been a very good trip.
I didn't see all the sights that the Philippines has to offer. I didn't do all the networking that I was thinking of doing. I didn't even meet all the people I wanted to meet. But I felt truly at home here, and I know that when I go back to Toronto, I'll feel at home as well.
Where is home, anyway? Home is where you know people so well that you can be fully yourself. Home is where you share people's saddest moments and their best ones. Home is where even the most frustrating moments help you grow, and where the best moments make you soar.
Being with my barkada reminded me how *wonderful* it is to have deep friendships, and how totally awesome it is when your best friends are also best friends with each other. I'm still growing all those friendships in Canada, but we'll get there. Being with my family reminded me that through all things, family is there. I don't have family like that in Canada, but I can love my friends.
I'm going to miss leaning over and giving my mom a hug, scooping up my cat and listening to her meow half-heartedly in complaint, and watching my barkada's antics at videoke. But there's a time and place for everything, and I'll be able to enjoy all of that again during my next trip.
I'm flying off tomorrow, but I'm not leaving. When I arrive in Toronto, I won't be lost. I have two homes now. Isn't it so wonderful that I can experience the joys of coming home twice over?
When I go back to Canada, I'm going to keep trying. I'll work hard on my thesis so that I can graduate early. I'll also work on my job permit so that I can take advantage of the opportunities. I'll go out and meet more people so that I can mix more people into the group. I'll dare to live life and to share it with others.
Life is awesome.

3. I won't be part of the brain drain: 10:42
It'll be easy for me to establish myself abroad. I have to keep my ties to the Philippines strong. If I wait until I'm rich, my reasons for caring won't be as vivid. I might forget why I love my country despite the smog, the traffic, the scandals. I'll make sure I remember. I'll keep an eye out for stories that make me feel good about the Philippines and I'll keep looking for ways to help.
I pledge 10% of my income towards charitable causes. I don't want to stop at sending money home. I want to find a cause that I can be involved in, that will e-mail me reports of the difference it is making in people's lives.
As long as the Philippines is real to me, I will also be fully real and alive.

4. Job search? Company search!: 16:09
I figured out what I really, really, really want to do as my next job. I'm a perfect fit for it, and it's a perfect fit for me. Now all I have to do is sell my future company on the idea so that they'll create my position. I'm not searching for a job... I have a job that'll create a *lot* of value, and now all I have to do is search for a company!
Watch. I've got Awesome Things planned. Here are my next actions.
- Find out how many companies get started in Toronto each month / year and their survival rate.
- Establish links with entrepreneurial groups and meetups.
- Find a news source for new companies.
- Identify the potential established companies that would benefit from the kind of work I want to do, and set up meetings.

Children's Vaccines Health Center
Whooping Cough Vaccine Protection Wanes Fast
Sept. 12, 2012 -- 2012 is shaping up to be the worst year for whooping cough in more than five decades, and a new study from California may help explain why.
When researchers studied a 2010 outbreak in that state, they found that protection among children vaccinated against whooping cough (also known as pertussis) waned dramatically during the five years after their last immunization.
Vaccines Safe, but Protection Doesn't Last
In the U.S., most children receive five doses of the combined diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTaP) vaccine, beginning at around 2 months of age and ending between the ages of 4 and 6 years.
Researchers have long suspected that a newer version of the whooping cough vaccine, introduced in 1997, does not protect as long as the older version. And this, they think, has contributed to the increase in cases across the nation.
The new analysis of the California outbreak appears to confirm this.
"The current available vaccines are the safest that we have ever had, and they do protect against pertussis," says researcher Nicola P. Klein, MD, PhD, of the Kaiser Permanente Vaccine Study Center. "They just don't last as long as we would like."
26,000 Whooping Cough Cases Reported
As of last week, slightly more than 26,000 cases of whooping cough had been reported to the CDC since the first of the year, says CDC medical epidemiologist Thomas A. Clark, MD.
That's twice as many cases as were reported by this time last year.
"We are seeing 1,000 new cases a week right now, so they are still coming at a pretty brisk clip," Clark says.
Other than infants, the rise has been greatest among children between the ages of 7 and 10, followed by young teens.
The spike in these age groups first alerted investigators to the possibility that the newer vaccine may not be as long-lasting as the older one, which was replaced for safety reasons.
To test this theory, the Kaiser Permanente investigators focused their research on children who had been vaccinated with the newer combined vaccine.

Any course may be offered on demand should sufficient interest be demonstrated and should a qualified instructor be available. "Demand" courses with a defined content will be offered as regularly as practical for the host department.
At the end of the course description, the following information will be given when applicable: laboratory information, corequisites ("concurrent enrollment") and prerequisites, cross listed courses ("same as"), special fees and pertinent information about the use of the course.
Courses and Numbering
All courses are listed alphabetically by course prefix and numerically within each prefix. The department and college assignments are also noted. ACU uses a three-digit course numbering system. Courses numbered 100 to 299 are lower-level courses (primarily for freshmen and sophomores). Courses numbered from 300 to 499 are upper-level, or advanced, courses (primarily for juniors and seniors). Courses numbered 500 to 799 are graduate courses. All courses numbered 000 to 099 do not count toward graduation or GPA.
Prerequisites and Corequisites
Some courses have prerequisites, which must be met before a student may register for that course. In some cases, a student may have special knowledge, skills or background that will enable him or her to perform well in a given class without meeting its prerequisites. Such a student should seek special permission from the department and/or instructor offering the course. Courses listed as corequisite must be taken together. Students should refer to the most recent catalog for course corequisites, prerequisites and restrictions.
Course Sequencing
Some courses have recommendations of a previous course(s) for appropriate sequencing. Such recommendations are not prerequisites; the system will allow any student meeting a course's prerequisites to enroll for a course regardless of whether the student meets the sequencing recommendations. Students are cautioned, however, to follow sequencing recommendations when all of the courses in the sequence are on their degree plans.
Guided Study, Special Topics and Tutorial Courses
Each department may offer Guided Study (also called Independent Study) courses (200, 400, 500, 600, 700); Special Topics courses (140, 240, 340, 440, 540, 640, 740); or Tutorial courses (generally offered to students at Study Abroad locations) as special needs dictate and/or available faculty allow. The first number will indicate the level of the course. Special Topics courses are offered on a one-time basis, to take advantage of particular faculty expertise, or to allow a department to develop a course for permanent inclusion in the inventory of courses. Generally, Special Topics and Tutorial courses may be included in the Semester Schedule when they are offered; Guided Studies will not be included in the Semester Schedule.
The Texas Common Course Numbering System
The Texas Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS) has been designed for the purpose of aiding students in the transfer of general academic courses between colleges and universities throughout Texas. Common courses are freshman and sophomore academic credit courses that have been identified as common by institutions that are members of the common course numbering system. The system ensures that if the student takes the courses the receiving institution designates as common, then the courses will be accepted in transfer.
For further information contact the transfer course coordinator in the Registrar's Office.
