I'm different. I'm not like the others. Their lives revolve round instinct. If they're hungry, they eat. If there's danger, they run. If there's a squabble, they fight. Sometimes I feel sorry for them. They only have an awareness of the basic things, to eat, sleep, flee, and reproduce; and they do it without imagination, understanding, or curiosity. They can never stop to appreciate the simple joy of watching the sunrise. No thoughts beyond finding the next meal or safe place to sleep concern them.
They've already eaten and drank today, and there's no immediate danger, so they laze around, sleeping and grooming themselves. Doing the same things as they've always done, and they like it. Sometimes I envy them.

|Helene Godin
Seth Godin (born July 10, 1960) is an American author, entrepreneur, marketer, and public speaker.
Born in Mount Vernon, New York, Godin graduated from Williamsville East High School in 1978. He received degrees in computer science and philosophy from Tufts University, followed by an MBA in marketing from the Stanford Graduate School of Business.[1] From 1983 to 1986, he worked as a brand manager at Spinnaker Software.[1]
After leaving Spinnaker in 1986, he used $20,000 in savings to found Seth Godin Productions, primarily a book packaging business, out of a studio apartment in New York City.[2] In the same offices he met Mark Hurst and founded Yoyodyne. After a few years, Godin sold the book packaging business to his employees and focused his efforts on Yoyodyne, where he promoted the concept of permission marketing.
Business ventures[edit]
In 1995, Godin launched Yoyodyne, which used contests, online games, and scavenger hunts to market companies to participating users. In August, 1996, venture-capital firm Flatiron Partners invested $4 million in Yoyodyne in return for a 20% stake.[2] Over one million viewers visited the site, and the companies America Online, American Express, H&R Block, Microsoft, Procter & Gamble, Sony Music, Sprint, and Volvo have used its services.[3] At Yoyodyne, Godin published Permission Marketing: Turning strangers into friends and friends into customers. In 1998, he sold Yoyodyne to Yahoo! for about $30 million[4][5] and became Yahoo's vice president of direct marketing, a position he held until 2000.[6]
In March 2006, Godin launched Squidoo, a community website that allowed users, called "lensmasters," to create pages (called "lenses") for subjects of interest.[7] The site donated 5 percent of the profits to charity, and 50 percent to the lensmasters.[8] Godin and Squidoo were profiled on CNN and in the Washington Post,[9][10] while the website was given top prize in SXSW's community/wiki category.[11] In July 2008, Squidoo was one of the 500 most visited sites in the world.[12] On August 15, 2014, he announced that Squidoo was acquired by HubPages, and stated that the aim was to relocate some of Squidoo's content to its new home at HubPages by October 1, 2014.[13]
Other projects[edit]
Godin developed the idea for ChangeThis, a website aimed at spreading ideas through PDF files.[14] In the summer of 2004, Godin hired five interns—Amit Gupta, Catherine Hickey, Noah Weiss, Phoebe Espiritu and Michelle Sriwongtong—to build and develop the website.[15] The website went live on August 14, 2004.[16] Tom Peters, Chris Anderson, and Guy Kawasaki all had manifestos featured on ChangeThis.[17] In July 2005, ChangeThis was turned over to 800-CEO-READ, a distributor of business literature in the United States.[18][19]
In December 2008, Godin announced in a blog post that he would be offering a six-month alternative MBA program at his office in Hastings on Hudson, NY.[20] 48,000 people looked at the post and 340 applied. He invited 27 applicants to his office for a group interview. They spent two hours interviewing one another. After further discussion, they and Godin together wrote down the names of their favorite candidates. Three weeks later the nine chosen applicants came to Godin's office.[21] This group graduated in July 2009.[22]
In June 2012, Godin launched a new project—an experiment in crowdfunding a published book. Instead of approaching his publisher for his next book, The Icarus Deception: Why Make Art?, Godin launched a Kickstarter campaign.[23] In the first week, he raised more than $250,000 from readers, which in turn secured him a book contract with his publisher.[24]
In October 2012, Godin started a podcast on the Earwolf network. In the weekly podcast he guides thirty entrepreneurs through a workshop exploring how they can build and run their dream business.[25]
As of April 27, 2014, Godin is the author of 17 books: Tribes and Linchpin are his two best-selling books, while Free Prize Inside was a Forbes Business Book of the Year in 2004.[26][27] Additionally, during its first two years of release, Purple Cow sold over 150,000 copies in over more than 23 print runs.[28] The Dip was a Business Week and New York Times bestseller.[29][30] In the early 1990s, he created a 10-book series for children titled Worlds of Power, which was written by various writers. Each of the book's plots is based on a video game and are written in a novelized form.[31]
In April of 2016, Godin's book, All Marketers Are Liars, was selected by Carine Alexis at Forbes as one of six essential books every marketer should have on their shelf.[32]
Godin also releases a daily blog on the Typepad platform. [33]
In May 2009, Godin's Seth's Blog was ranked in the AdAge Power 150 as the number 1 marketing blog out of the 976 tracked. [34]

When they finished loading they realized that not all the pieces would fit. They arranged to meet us the next morning at 9 am. They showed up at 9 am eastern time, which is 8 am in Memphis. They then removed all my household items IN THE RAIN in my drive way so that when we arrived all our items(furniture, boxes, mattresses) were soaking wet.
They then stood at the back of the truck and physically pushed our belongings toward the front of the truck so they could fit the last items on.
When they delivered the items we were over our weight (of course)and they could not produce a light-weight ticket, as is required by the DOT. They tried to use the title of the truck as their ticket since it has a weight on it. FYI their title said the truck was exactly 12000 lbs. Nobody makes anything that weighs exactly 12000 lbs. They've been ripping people off with this for awhile.
They saw we were taking pictures with our camera so they stole it. Luckily for us we had to change film so we have some pictures. They didn't put anything back together like we were told they would do.
They have now said that we authorized them to offload in the rain. Total Lie. And six months later they are now saying that all the damage was there before the move, except for the two lightest items. What a surprise.
And we have jsut found out that the comapny itself is responsible for settling the claim, not an insurance company. So the people who damaged all of our stuff has to write the check themselves. So for damage to property with real value of over $6000, they are taking responsibility for $102.
Do not use Rapimax or Nationwide Relocation Services/Moving Cost. They will try (and usually succeed) to rip you off coming and going.

Here is Rapimax's insurance contact
AUTHOR: Sharon - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 13, 2005POSTED: Monday, June 13, 2005
Here is the contact info for Rapimax's agent. You may have to call several different offices to find out the specific agent for the policy number, but keep at it and you will get at least some of your repair costs.
Attn: LEBOEUF, LAMB, GREENE & MACRAE
Address: 1875 CONNECTICUT AVE.,NW
Telephone: (202) 986 - 8000
Fax: (202) 986 - 8102
Policy # R403890/0259
Just keep asking for the agent who holds this policy.
Then you need to file all sorts of complaints, like the BBB, the DOT (1-888-DOT-SAFT), and anywhere else you can find. Emphasize the no weight ticket thing to the DOT.

----------------------------------- APX Alarm BEWARE of this company Provo Utah
Like a majority of the complaints on here, I too was rooked into getting an alarm system by APX Alarm out of Utah back in June 2006. I too, was approached by two, clean cut Mormon college students who gave me the line of they've been installing alarm systems in my neighborhood all day and they could offer me this and that if I decided to do the installation today.
They pulled out an application and started asking me for my social security number and personal information and credit card number that the monthly payment could be charged to. Other than a T-Shirt that said APX Alarm, I didn't know if these guys were from a reputable company! guess I learned my lesson to say NO first then check into companys like this prior to signing my soul away.
The installation was a rush rush deal, shottily done, the kid rambled off some instructions on how to use the alarm, left me a paper and that's the last I heard from APX Alarm.until recently.
My credit card that was attached to my checking account quit working and I was issued a new card. My payment typically comes out between the 21st and 24th of the month. I didn't put two and two together until they called on the 26th of November about a billing issue. I then realized I had used that other credit card for the payment and needed to give them the new card number.
A couple days later I received another phone call on 11/29 on my cell phone by an APX representative, I told him I knew what he was calling for and gave him the new card number for Novembers payment, he asked me if I wanted to go ahead and pay December's payment as well and I said, NO, it isn't due until later in the month, he said okay.
Low and behold I'm looking at my banking information on line and see that they debited my card on 12/3 $39.99 and again on 12/5 for another $39.99, I proceeded to call them and give them a piece of my mind for doing exactly what I told them NOT to do.
The girl I got on the phone was rude and basically told me she could not discuss the account with me because it was not in my name, I told her you have my credit card on file, I pay the bill and I was good enough to talk to the other day when the guy hit me up to pay the bill, she refused to talk to me, so I had my husband call.
The next day, after going home and re-reading our contract, my husband called. After nearly 40 minutes on the phone and being transferred around, the representative told my husband that because our bank kicked back the charge in November our contract we signed with our due date was VOID and they made our payment due date the 1st of the month now, without notifying us or anything. They refused to credit our account back the $39.99 that they fraudulently helped themselves to out of our account. The representative begrudgingly agreed to move the due date back to its original date, now I guess I'll be watching my account closely around the 21-24th of this month to see if they take another $39.99 out.
APX has horrible customer service, they are rude and not helpful at all, and they are argumentative. They spoke to my husband like he was an idiot, when he finally had enough of their unprofessional attitude and demeaning treatment, he just hung up on the girl. This company is VERY lucky they are in Utah and not anywhere near California, or I would be on their front door step.
This company gives poor customer service and treats customers horribly because they CAN! A majority of their customers are in other states and basically once you sign their agreement they have you by the you know whats! You cancel, they turn you in to collections, you fulfill the contract you still are obligated to use them to provide monitoring service or just be out the money paid for the system, yank it out and opt to go with a reputable alarm company. Any way you look at it, they win.

"RE: D4 or D800?"
>thanks for posting the question .. I am going thru the same>dilemma and have been following thru the threads .. I>currently have a D800 and have a D4 on order .. >Marv ..Well, I did it, and had my first outing last night at a rodeo. The jury is out on many aspects, but the speed is amazing. Roping or a bucking horse at 11fps gives you a lot of choices of expression and position. Unlike (say) volleyball or baseball where at least in theory one can hit the moment of greatest action with good timing, this is more random, and it is a huge benefit in comparison.However, I've been spoiled by the resolution on the D800. I've gotten in the habit of framing loosely to make sure I get everything, and with the D4 (and shooting at 6400) I'm finding myself saying "why didn't I zoom on more" when I look closely and faces are filled with noise. I shot with both, swapping lenses back and forth, and then loaded all in lightoom and started culling (not noticing which was which or having it displayed). When I was done I had about 3 times the initial keepers with the D4. That's a bit unfair, as I also had probably 5 times the images.But it was very nice having two bodies. While bright I a long lens on the D800 for action on the other side of the arena, then would switch to the 70-200 on the D4. Awkward to carry two, but SO much easier. But yes... 10fps is just a whole different world from 4fps.Comments welcomed on pictures: Http://captivephotons.com

WASHINGTON (August 22, 2016)—The 2016 G20 Summit in Hangzhou, China is just around the corner, September 4-5, and will be the first G20 Summit since the Paris Agreement was reached last December. Many are looking to the G20 for a clear signal from world leaders that the message of Paris was received, and that member countries are putting climate and clean energy action at the heart of their growth agendas.
climate policy
A climate change strategy for all of North America could transform how we address a defining issue of our time. The move would be unprecedented, but it is more possible than ever. Heads of state from Canada, Mexico and the United States have the opportunity at the North American Leadership Summit in Ottawa to begin the process by setting out strong continent-wide climate actions.
WASHINGTON (MAY 12, 2016)— The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency finalized the first-ever federal standards for methane emissions from new and modified sources in the oil and natural gas sectors. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas pollutant, with up to 34 times more global warming potential than carbon dioxide, and it accounts for roughly one-quarter of human-made global warming. Methane valued at more than $1 billion escapes from oil and natural gas extraction processes in the U.S.
New analysis from World Resources Institute shows that Illinois is in a strong position to meet or exceed its emissions target under the EPA's Clean Power Plan (CPP) to reduce emissions from the power sector.
While a carbon tax has attracted little attention in the U.S. media before the primary debate last week, WRI research shows it's a policy that can reduce emissions in cost-effective, pro-growth and equitable ways. In fact, some 40 countries and more than 20 cities, states and regions have or are planning on putting carbon prices in place.
Since 195 countries adopted the Paris Agreement in December 2015, many countries are starting to implement their climate commitments or "nationally determined contribution" (NDC). But many developing countries lack the tools to measure, report and verify progress on their climate commitments and actions. The Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) was launched today in response to calls for support from countries for improved transparency and capacity building related to the Paris Agreement.
Insider blogs offer timely, specialized analysis for experts on key topics.
The Paris Agreement on climate change is anchored in plans – known as Intended National Determined Contributions, or INDCs -- to cut greenhouse gas emissions submitted by individual countries. As countries put policies in place to fulfill their INDCs, the Agreement also lays out requirements to regularly monitor implementation and progress. Performance...
In his final State of the Union address, President Barack Obama ranked the importance of a climate change strategy on a par with national security, economic equality and a more effective political process. Here are six steps his administration can take this year to cement its climate legacy.

Spot-on mel.
When I read Ayre's comments yesterday evening on Yahoo frontpage, I wanted to post a similar thread to question the club's ambition but thought decided not to.
I think Ayre is taking the mick, and that's coming from a fan of a club (AFC) at the forefront of the FFP crap.
This latest statement by the club shows exactly where their sole interest lies - profitability, and not improving the playing squad and taking the club to the next level as they claimed when they took control of the club.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Mel agree with you and if you look at my earlier posts you will see that I mentioned that they were setting out the stall as per Arsenal business model.
This now is the proof that is exactly what they are doing.
As usual nothing us fans can do but sit and watch.

Tuesday the 12th we called, and the customer service person, Channel Kind, told us that they have to fix it or replace it with a comparable unit within 3 days, so they would have it the next day. Wednesday the 13th we called, and again it was not ready, so we asked for our money back. They said no, it would be fixed by the end of the business day. It was not, and my calls were not returned.
The next day, I called, and was told it was not ready nor did they have a comparable unit. I again said I wanted my money back, and she said no. It was Tuesday that the customer service person, named Channel, began to get rude, yelled, and challenge us to try to get a refund.
When I told her I was coming down there to get my money back, she told me she would call the police if I showed up. I am mortified that anyone, especially in customer service, would treat another person this way. When I asked for her supervisor's name and number, she said she was not obligated to tell me. When I asked for the owner's name as well, she said they dont talk to customers, and gave me a false name. We have not recieved a refund. We have contacted our credit card company, the better business bureau and this website. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS!!!!

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you're a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on one pitch.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled 'Please note'.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

The Orioles went into the All-Star break at 36-52, a foreshadowing to a dismal season. Expectations were low for the second half and the O's were looking like triple digit losers for a while, but they managed to turn things around a bit in the second half, going 33-41 in the games after the break.
The year didn't turn out as anyone hoped, but the second half became a valuable time to evaluate talent for the future and figure out who can be used to make the Orioles relevant again in the AL East.
Here is a look, position-by-position, at how the Orioles did in the second half of 2011.

Scottsdale Az 85255
On July 21 we brought our poor dog (Shenzi) to the vet because she had begun to lose weight at an alarming rate. She was a 13 year old Cattle dog that we had owned her entire life and loved dearly. The test results were not good at all. Our poor baby girl had a heart murmur, severe diabetes, Cushings disease, and possibly pancreatic cancer (test results were still pending). We set up another appointment for July 24 to discuss treatment options or possibly euthanasia to end her suffering.
Unfortunately, our poor doggie took a turn for the worst on July 23 and lost the use of her rear legs. She also began to vomit what appeared to be dry blood---a total of 12 times in 24 hours. After repeatedly finding our baby girl lying in a pool of vomit and whimpering....our decision to put her to sleep and end her suffering was painfully clear.
By the time we brought her into the clinic again.....she had become limp and lifeless. My step daughter had gone to the vet with me to say her final "good-byes" to the dog she had known most of her life. Our normal vet was unavailable so a Dr. Paula Mack was sent to discuss the situation with us. After expressing my desire to put our dog to sleep....I was SHOCKED when Dr. Mack told me that I was being irrational and completely overreacting to a minor medical situation. My step daughter's face began to glow as Dr. Mack explained that our dog would be fine by tomorrow morning if I allowed her to treat her illness. Normally this would be good news to me but I have to admit that I didn't feel the vet was being honest with me at all and was taking advantage of my emotional step daughter to pressure me into spending money that I couldn't afford just for her own financial gain.
I was then presented with an estimate of $1884+ to treat my dog and save her life. I protested that there was NO WAY I was going to spend that kind of money when I know in my heart our dog was going to be dead in a few hours! Dr. Mack massively pressured me (in front of my step daughter) to spend the money and make my dog well again. I reluctantly agreed. Several hours later Dr. Mack called me and recommended euthanasia because our dog wasn't responding as planned. Total cost for tests, treatment, etc...nearly $2100!!
In my opinion Dr. Paula Mack's behavior was unethical and completely disgusting and should not be tolerated by anyone. I have taken my dog's medical records to other vets in the Scottsdale area and not a single one of them agrees that ANY form of treatment should have been an option. My dog was way too sick and way too old to have any chance of survival.
There must be something that I can do to recover atleast a portion of the money that I needlessly spent trying to help my dog. The fee for euthansia is only $61 and that is what I originally brought my dog in for. Any advice would be appreciated.
Shenzi's dad (Mark)
P.S.---When I asked for a refund under the circumstances....Dr. Mack's reply was " I didn't hold a gun to your head so stop blaming me!"

Never had anything but superior service from AMSC
AUTHOR: T Layshock - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Friday, October 09, 2009POSTED: Friday, October 09, 2009
My cats have been seen by all of the vets at AMSC and I cannot fathom this kind of experience. I have always recommended AMSC to anyone I know and will continue to do so. We have had nothing but positive experiences and everyone that works there is extremely knowledgable and professional. They have extended hours and are open on the weekends which is wonderful for those who work M-F. The facility is state of the art, nothing like other vets offices I have been to. I have always been impressed with the concern and care that my cats and my parents dog receive when they are treated there. You can always expect a follow up call a day or two later and if you have any questions, someone is there to answer them or will call you back promptly when they find out.
My cats have been seen by Dr. Mack and I found her to be very kind and knowledgable. She didn't rush the exam and gave detailed explanations to everything that needed to be done. She has a great demeanor towards both pets and their owners which I appreciate, as my anxiety level is always sky high when one of the girls is sick. I would highly recommend her or any of the vets at AMSC.

I have another cat which she euthanized about four years ago. In that case she also explained the options to me - from euthanasia to expensive treatment and what the odds were.
I actually was doing an on-line search for her to thank her for saving Oscar's life when I came across this complaint.
I think being a vet must be extremely challenging work; especially when pets are our family members, rather than just pets.
I greatly miss have her here in our community - she was worth every penny of care she gave to all my animals.

I was coerced into allowing the procedure. No, the vet didn't hold a gun to my head, but she did lead me to believe my pet would die. I wasn't worried my pet would die from bad teeth. I was worried that my pet might die as the result of a little too much anesthesia from a pissed off vet and I was too far away to do anything about it because my pet was already in the process of having it's teeth cleaned and I was at work. I complained to the state licensing board. The rep said there is nothing the board can do about the vet's beside manner.
I know they teach "bedside manner" in vet school, but they might as well call it extortion 101. Some vets don't care what you can afford or about the welfare of your pet. They care about the limit on your credit card.

Rebuttal to Accusations on Dr. Paula Mack of Animal Medical & Surgical Center
AUTHOR: Real Deal - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, September 13, 2007POSTED: Thursday, September 13, 2007
To Whom This May Concern,
I am saddened by the sentiments expressed by Mr. English regarding the treatment of his dog Shenzi.
Mr. English presented his dog to me at Animal Medical and Surgical Center for examination in July of this year. Shenzi had been diagnosed with Diabetes earlier in the year, and was obviously not doing well. She was not eating and was lethargic. I suspected a problem with her Diabetes control, or possibly a pancreatic tumor, and asked Mr. English if he wanted to treat his dog. He said yes, and I proceeded to create an estimate for the plan of diagnosis and treatment. He did not bring up euthanasia. He was presented the estimate for treatment by a staff veterinary technician, and carefully reviewed the plan. He declined an ultrasound of the abdomen and x-rays at that time. After receiving the signed estimate form by Mr. English, the support staff ran blood work and discovered that Shenzi's blood glucose was very high. I called Mr. English and alerted him that we would start insulin intravenously to stabilize her glucose levels. Her glucose levels began to normalize with treatment, and Shenzi started to feel much better. Earlier in the evening, Mr. English's daughter came in to visit Shenzi and feed her food she brought from home. Later that evening, her blood glucose levels started to rise again despite our continued efforts, and the next morning, Shenzi started to vomit with dark blood flecks. I called Mr. English to alert him, that despite our best efforts, Shenzi's condition was declining. I suggested euthanasia as an option, as I felt it was the responsible thing to do. Never did I guarantee that Shenzi would be fine after treatment.
Mr. English's allegations that I guaranteed such an outcome is wildly and irresponsibly fictitious. As all health care providers, I do guarantee my absolute best effort to promptly diagnose and treat patients with compassion and care. It is my oath. I did my very best to help Mr. English and his dog Shenzi. Obviously hers was a critical case, and we are all disappointed with the outcome. I am sorry Mr. English feels remorseful about his decision to treat rather than request euthanasia for his dog, and offer my condolences for the loss of his dog.

Firstly, I think mathjax is the best Latex render for html, especially in Firefox, it looks perfect. In fact, in my site:http://wamath.sinaapp.com/, I have tried to translate some Latex code to html too, such as
\subsubsection, and define some new environment, such as Theorem(
thm), Lemma(
lem) and so on, which can auto-numbering it works almost well so far, you can view here for an introduction to the plugin(Latex2Html).
But, there is a problem when I try to set some commend as
\newcommand{\pt}{\partial} and put it into "Custom LaTeX preamble" box, it works for IE9, Firefox8.0, Chrome16.0, however, for IE6, it is not work, and it says that has some problem of the js. I try to solve it, but failed.
In fact, I can define it in the "Custom mathjax config" box, as
Macros: {
pt: '{\\partial}'
which will work for all the browser incuding IE6.
So can you check the code, and tell me how to solve it, since a lot of my firends are still use IE6. Thanks!

Women's Volleyball
Team of the Year Runner Up: Women's Volleyball
With the program's first ever berth in the NCAA Tournament, this year's volleyball squad will leave its name in the history books.
Female Athlete of the Year Runner-Up: Corie Bain
Buoyed by Bain's triple-double of 15 kills, 18 assists, and 14 digs, the Crimson cruised to victory past Mattaliano and Princeton in a four-set victory to nab the program's first NCAA bid.
Bain So Good
Senior Corie Bain, shown here in action against Yale, ended her Harvard career as one of the most dynamic players in program history.
Serving Up Success
The women's volleyball team celebrates a point during its 3-0 win against Ivy League rival Columbia on November 7, 2015. This win gave the team a piece of the Ivy League title, and helped it gain a playoff berth in the NCAA tournament.
Two Teams, One Program
As the women's volleyball team won a share of the Ivy League title, the men's team was at home following along through the Ivy League Digital Network. The men and women try and go to each of the other team's games, even working the games when the players are in off-season.
Men's and Women's Volleyball Connect On and Off the Court
The men's and women's volleyball teams share a gym, a lot of physical height, and an assistant coach in Jeff Aucoin, but they also share a mutual love for each other that bonds the two programs even beyond their shared sport. This unique connection permeates classes and continues to grow as new athletes join the teams.
Harvard-Yale Rivalry Goes Beyond the Game
At the heart of the excitement and drama lies a rivalry that stretches back a century and a half. Although football may be the most salient part of this competition, the rivalry is a tradition between Harvard and Yale that runs deeper than the gridiron.
Heading the Offense
Freshman middle blocker Christina Cornelius, pictured above in action against Columbia on Nov. 17, had eight kills and five digs in the Crimson's four-set loss to Nebraska in the first round of the NCAA Tournament
Women's Volleyball Falls to Nebraska in Four Sets in First NCAA Tourney Appearance
For one set, the Harvard women's volleyball team went toe-to-toe with a top five team in the country on the college game's biggest stage.
Athlete of the Week Runners-Up: Week of November 23rd
Justice Shelton-Moseley took advantage of the big stage, as he delivered several game-changing plays at the Yale Bowl on Saturday, but several other Crimson athletes had performances that were just as commendable.
Comeback Victory
Thanks to a team-high .500 kill percentage and nine kills from freshman middle blocker Christina Cornelius, pictured above against Columbia on Nov. 7, the Crimson earned the Ivy NCAA bid with a four-set victory over Princeton.
With Four-Set Win Over Princeton, Women's Volleyball Claims Ivy League NCAA Tournament Bid
While Harvard students filed down to New Haven for the 132th rendition of The Game, the women's volleyball team stayed behind Friday night at the Malkin Athletic Center to take down Princeton, 3-1, to end the Tigers' season and send the Crimson to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history.
Games of the Weekend
Although many Crimson supporters will be wholly focused upon "The Game" between the Harvard and Yale football teams this coming weekend, there are a few other Crimson squads that have competitions this weekend with major NCAA implications.
Women's Volleyball Earns Share of Ivy Title; One Game Playoff to Decide NCAA Bid
No one likes sharing. But when it comes to the co-owning the Ivy League title, the Harvard women's volleyball team probably isn't too upset about it.
Weekend Preview
Whether they're kicking off a season, in the midst of one, or drawing it to a close, several Harvard teams are playing key matchups that you'll want to keep an eye on this weekend.

I'm having a lift and aug in a few days and am a hairstylist, so I want to know what to expect as far as a discomfort level and return to work. My doc told me a week and come back light, just wanna know that's long enough.
How is Recovery After a Breast Lift and Implants?
Doctor Answers 21
Recovery After Breast Surgery
- Stiffness, swelling and bruising in the chest region: These are normal experiences as the skin, muscles and tissue heal. Pain medication and muscle relaxants will help you cope with any discomfort. Consistent sharp pain should be reported to your board-certified surgeon.
- Hypersensitivity of nipples or lack of sensitivity: This is normal and will gradually resolve over time.
- A mild to severe itchy feeling of the breasts is possible as healing progresses. An antihistamine like Benadryl can help to alleviate severe, constant itchiness. If the skin becomes red and hot to the touch, contact your board-certified surgeon immediately.
- Asymmetry, the breasts look different, or heal differently: Breasts may look or feel quite different from one another in the days following surgery. This is normal. No two breasts in nature or following surgery are perfectly symmetrical.
- Discuss returning to work with your board-certified surgeon, in our office it is typically 3-5 days post-surgery but you may not overexert yourself or do any heavy lifting.
- You may resume exercise and your normal routine at six weeks unless your surgeon advises otherwise.

Recovery following Breast lift
Best of luck,
Breast lift and augmentation post op pain
I think your doctor is right on course with the recommendations especially considering he knows your situation and body type.
The breast lift causes very little pain. Even with larger breast reduction patients do not experience much pain post op for the most part. I have done many thousands of these so I can tell you with a good deal of certainty that the patient with a breast lift or breast reduction that has a lot of pain post op is the exception.
Now the augmentation part of your case is different. If your doctor is placing the implants under the muscle (my preference), then the muscle takes time to adjust to the new stretch and tries to get back to the chest wall. This does cause post op pain that should be treated with pain meds as needed.
Your doctor has given you good advice but of course you have to consider that pain and discomfort is variable from patient to patient.
You might also like...
Return to work after breast augmentation and lift
Unfortunately, you do not describe the type of lift you are having. These can vary from around the nipple to a lollipop or boat anchor incisions. Also, you do not describe whether the implants will be placed in front of or behind the muscle. Implants behind the muscle hurt longer and stretching of the muscles can aggravate the pain. Usually 1 one week would be enough to get you back to light duty or 4 weeks to be completely back to normal.
Best of Luck,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Recovery after Breast Augmentation/Lifting?
Your plastic surgeon will be in the best position to advise you regarding returning to activities, including work. Generally speaking, patients are able to return to light duty/desk jobs about one week after surgery. If you are holding a heavy blow dryer you may require an additional week to 10 days away from this activity.
Best wishes.

Time off Work post Breast Lift and Augmentation

Augmentation and Back to Work?
Thank you for your post. Yes, in general, going back to work in 1 week is fine for a motivated individual. Expect to be sore but can certainly be done. When you are at work, avoid lifting anything heavy or reaching too high above your head, stretching the incisions.
Best Wishes,
Pablo Prichard, MD

It really depends on a few factors. Adequate pain control is likely the most important. Individual pain tolerance differs greatly. I find that women who have had children generally have less post-op pain, as they have a much higher pain tolerance. From a surgical point of view, there are several things the surgeon/anaesthesiologist can do to decrease your post-op pain.
I generally perform breast blocks prior to making any incisions with a mix of short- and long-acting local anaesthetics. I have found this greatly reduces post-op pain. I also encourage patients to take the prescribed pain killers regularly every 4 hours especially for the first 24-48 hours. If you don't stay on top of the pain in the immediate post-operative period, it is extremely difficult to "catch-up". Most of my patients experience very little post-op pain after breast augmentation.
Of course, the type of augmentation you have will also determine your post-operative discomfort. Larger implants, and subpectoral implant placement will also increase post-op discomfort. This doesn't mean you shouldn't get large implants, or place them under the muscle - you simply need to know what to expect. Many women also experience difficulty with sleeping in the first few weeks after augmentation due to the weight of the implants on their chest. This is more significant in back-sleepers.
To answer your question about time off work, my experience has been that there is a huge range. I have patients that go back to work the next day (against my advice), and I have had patients take as much as 2 weeks off of work. It really depends on what you do for work, and how you feel. As for taking care of your kids, if your implant is placed under the muscle, it will be a few weeks before you feel comfortable enough to pick them up.
As for scars, I tell patients it will take a year to see the absolute final result. Practically, however, by 3-6 months the scar will be very close to the final result. I suggest 3M paper taping, and have a specific scar massage protocol I use to help speed scar resolution.
I hope this helps. Good luck!
Activities after a breast augmentation
The only activities I would restrict a patient to after a breast augmentation would be not to lift greater than 20 pounds and avoid activities where the breasts bounce up and down for 6 weeks. Atlanta Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Z
Recovery after a breast lift and implants
Recovery after a breast lift and implant surgery is a little more recovery than after just implant surgery. Breast implant surgery recovery or breast enhancement surgery recovery is essentially a 24 hour recovery, back to light activity, with a shower the same day of surgery. In my practice, no restrictive bra or dressing is necessary after a breast augmentation. The breast lift would mean that the patient would not shower for one to two days after surgery. There is a little more discomfort with the combination of a breast lift with implants rather than an isolated breast implant surgery.
