Intravenous drug abuse can cause serious medical problems. Endocarditis and noncardiac pulmonary edema are the main cardiopulmonary complications of use of intravenous street drugs (1, 2). Previous reports have not shown any consistent direct myocardial complications secondary to use of these drugs (3). We report a case of a woman who developed acute cardiomyopathy with myocardial dysfunction and pulmonary edema immediately after intravenous amphetamine abuse. Possible causes for this severe cardiac abnormality, as well as its clinical importance, are discussed.

The volume V of a rectangular box is given by the formula V = lwh where l is length, w width, and h height. What is the height of a rectangular box with volume 56 cm3, length 4 cm, and width 2 cm?
Substitute 56 for V, 4 for l, and 2 for w. Find the equation 56 = (4)(2)h, and solve to get 7 = h. Yep. That should be big enough to fit your little sister.
Solve the formula 8x + 4y = 12 for y.
We get , which simplifies to y = 3 – 2x.
Solve the formula z3 – 3x + z2 = z for x.
If 4x – y = 5, find x when y = 15.
x = 5
If y2 + 2y – 3x = 5, find x when y = 2.
x = 1

Man arrest on assault chargesNovember 23,2012WEST RUTLAND A West Rutland man will be in court on Monday to answer to charge of aggravated domestic assault stemming from an incident early Thursday morning.
Matthew Shook, 34, was arrested around 1:40 a.m. Thursday after police responded to a domestic disturbance at Jens Motel on Route 4A in West Rutland.
Police said an initial investigation showed that Shook was involved in a verbal and physical altercation with a woman, who suffered some injuries as a result.
Shook was also found to be in violation of court-ordered conditions of release after a preliminary breath test showed he had been drinking, police said.
Shook was arrested and held at the Rutland jail on $5,000 bail.
He faces a felony charge of aggravated domestic assault and a misdemeanor charge of violating conditions of release.MORE IN This Just In

"There is no sight equal to learning, no austerity equal to truthfulness, no misery like passion, and no happiness equal to following the ideal of renunciation. The secret meaning of the Vedas is truth; of truth, self-control, freedom from all limitations. This is the sum of all the scriptures. Purity of conduct is the greatest purity. To think of God continuously, to worship him, to chant his name and sing his praises–this is the best way of attaining the highest good." ~Mahabharata

Monkey See Monkey Do
I have been training at a dojo in southern Taiwan for the past 8 months. While I can get around here using Chinese (American) well enough, at the dojo, they speak Taiwanese( More difficult to learn then chinese). I have been getting though the basics using the monkey see monkey do method, but I am starting to come to the point where I feel more explanation is needed. (they don't use any Japanese language in class). Am I wrong? Can one get by just by sight learning?
:ai: :ki: :do:
No not just sight But sight and feel, that is enough.
Re: Monkey See Monkey Do
Seriously having been, and to some extent still am, in the same boat the answer is these very forums. Most of us feel the need to talk about what we do - without that we tend to confuse ourselves. Use the forums as an outlet and in the dojo you can concentrate on the physical.
Side notes
You don't know us from Adam. If there is a contradiction between something said here as opposed to your teacher - lean toward your teacher.
A lot of what you do is made up of a small set of movements. Once you get past that a lot of the confusion goes out the window. Just sight becomes far easier.
I suggest you take a look at this link. It may anwser some questions. :p :p
Copy and paste it into your web browser.
Is that monkey style?
Brian: just goes to show you never to monkey around in class. That was funny.
I think there is some macho idea that you can learn just by seeing. I don't believe that at all. You can learn techniques and replicate what somebody is doing, but if we are doing aikido properly each technique is unique (because we are responding to the movement of uke, which varies).
Underlying aikido are the principles - these need explanaition. You may be able to follow principles with some physical explaition (e.g. gesturing etc when you are actally training) but I think it may take much longer.
The same happened in my swimming - I read one chapter of a book on swimming efficiency and within weeks I was swimming far far faster. I could swim before, but my speed was purely through fitness rather than technique. I had seen others in the club swimming fast, but now when I look at them I understand WHY they swim fast.
I've never found a good book that really explains aikido principles concisely and well (without getting obscure). Maybe the aikido community should get together with some sports physiologists and psychologists and write an excellent scientific book on aikido principles that would benefit everyone in a direct and practical manner.

Close to the shore of Lake Windermere in the heart of the Lake District National Park, Great Tower Scout Activity Centre is an ideal base for exploring this famous area. Set in 250 acres, the centre offers both sizeable woodland to explore as well as natural rocky crags for climbing.
Great Tower offers a wide range of both land and water based activities, including archery, low and high ropes, climbing and abseiling, sailing and canoeing. With the opportunity to build in as many or as few instructed activities into your visit as you like, the Great Tower team can work with you to plan the perfect experience for you and your group.
Great Tower has extensive woodland camping areas for both large and small groups and also offers five accommodation lodges and a tented village. You can also talk to us about how we can support your catering and transport needs for a fuss-free stay. Planning a trip to the Lake District and taking part in some of Great Tower's many activities is possible all year round.
School Adventures
At Scout Activity Centres, we believe that great school residentials give pupils the opportunity to learn tangible skills, work collaboratively, develop responsibility and break down barriers with teaching staff. We call this method 'Adventure'. For over 100 years the Scout Association has been using adventure as a tool to develop young people.
'The residential visit was the best thing I've done as a teacher.'
We know that teachers are busy people. With piles of papers to grade, lessons to plan, and parents to contact, a dedicated teacher's to do list is never complete with even the best of veteran teachers feeling overwhelmed at times. We appreciate the demands to meet curriculum requirements is a constant challenge and priorities are often quick to change. To this end, and following consultation with a wide range of professionals in education, engagement with Learning Outside the Classroom and Learning Away, we've created a range of adventure experiences that aim to support you to meet aims and objectives. Our packages are competitively priced, easy to book and residential experiences cover a range of subjects in the National Curriculum. Children attending our day and residential experiences are grateful of life changing experiences that stay with them long past the time they have left full-time education. They have fun, learn by doing and perhaps above all, teachers and pupils leave our centres with relationships that have strengthened. View our packages on the School Experiences page.
We take your feedback very seriously. If you've visited our centre we'd really appreciate your comments and suggestions. With your responses we can make sure that we keep doing what we're doing well and improve the areas where you think we could make changes. If you could spare a minute of your time please complete our short questionnaire.

According to the World Taekwondo Federation:
"In the Olympic taekwondo competition, each weight category will consist of a single elimination tournament with a repechage for the bronze medal contest. The winner of the final contest will receive the gold medal and the loser will receive the silver medal.
"Losers to the finalists from all phases will advance to the repechage. In the repechage, the losers of the semifinals during the elimination phase will be seeded directly to each of the repechage finals, but on the opposite side of the bracket. Other losers will advance to the repechage unseeded, at the same side of the bracket in which they contested during the elimination phase. The two winners in the repechage finals will each receive a bronze medal."

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I am writing this letter to let you know how I feel about your company. (Target) I recently purchased a Simplicity 3in1 crib set; we paid over $300 for this item. We received the item in the time frame given and were happy with the purchase. I then began to put it together the following weekend. I put together all of the items, (crib, and changing table) I then moved on to the dresser and to my surprise, I was sent the same 2 sides. This would not allow me to line up the dresser properly and assemble it the proper way. No big deal right? Well it became a big deal when we called the manufacturer and the company was no longer in business. We then called Target to explain the situation and see what could be done. I was absolutely shocked when I called the support team for Target.
My wife called and the initial supervisor she spoke was not only rude, but short as well. Almost like he was in a rush to get off the phone then help s resolve the issue at hand. She is pregnant so she much more emotional then usual, and when she told me what happened she was very upset. I then called Target support team and was given the run around and put on hold for 30 minutes. Finally when someone came back to answer the phone I was told a supervisor would call me back. No supervisor ever returned my call. In fact I had to call back the following day and start the process over. I first called the corporate office and was quickly transferred to the Target.com representative, when I told the initial representative I did not want to speak to them. I then went through the whole process again and was told that there was nothing that Target could do, they would refund us for the purchase and we would have to return the item.
I am not happy with this resolution for a few reasons. This package was over 70lbs and I had to carry it up of 3 flights of stairs. It then took me 3 hours to assemble and set up. I do not feel I should disassemble and return. So the representative then said they could schedule a pickup for the item.
My biggest issue with this whole thing is, I put my trust in a company (Target) to purchase an item that I would be happy with. Why would you sell an item from a company that is no longer in business? Situations like this can occur and one did. Why should I suffer for the mistakes of your company? When speaking to the representative I asked if I could be sent a replacement dresser and was laughed at and told no. What is so funny about that question? My wife and I are expecting and I need a resolution, a resolution your support team could not provide. So now I am stuck with a 3 in 1 crib set that is half put together. And apparently there is nothing Target can do or will do.
When I was told this I could not believe what I was hearing, is the phrase The customer is always right thrown out of the window in situations like these? I was so disgusted that I explained to your representative that I had brought a good amount of business to your company and with the economy being the way it was I thought Target could show a little more empathy towards my situation. I have registered my wedding and my baby shower at Target and now people spent a lot of money on our registry. We have also registered our baby shower and know we have received a lot of items again from this list. Not to mention we get a lot of our household items hygiene products. I then told your representative that I would no longer be doing business with Target and she chuckled and said ok. With the times being as tough as they are, are you above everyone else? Can you afford to just lose business? I thought her actions were pretty arrogant and quit rude.
I really think Target should rethink a few things. Especially doing business and selling a product from a company that is no longer in business. You should also run your support team through some customer relations training. As a market support representative myself, I would grade your staff very poorly.
I am very disappointed in your company and your lack of compassion with my situation. I am now packing up the set that I purchased and waiting for someone to pick it up. I will be then waiting for my refund and taking my business else where since Target is not affected by the economic crises. I would like to thank you for absolutely nothing and advise you to take a look into your operations.
Maybe you can take this as a lesson learned and move forward. Lastly I will be returning all items received from Target for our baby shower, and I will be posting this letter to websites and blogs to show other people how Target operates and how they obviously don't need as much business as everyone else.

Target didn't rip you off...
AUTHOR: Edgeman - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, June 05, 2009POSTED: Friday, June 05, 2009
I do sympathize with Geoffrey. With a baby on the way, you don't want to deal with problems like this. I also agree that Target shouldn't have taken so long to offer a solution and that many of their employees could use a refresher on customer service.
It is not Target's fault that the package came with two identical side panels. That is the fault of the manufacturer.
It is not Target's fault that the manufacturer went out of business. How can any store know how long their suppliers and vendors will stay in business? Can anybody name a discount department store that has only bought from companies that haven't eventually gone out of business?
It is not Target's fault that Geoffrey had to lug the item up three flights of stairs.
As noted above, Target is responsible for how their people treated Geoffrey on the phone.
In the end, Target agreed to eat the $300 cost by giving Geoffrey a refund. That wasn't good enough though - Geoffrey didn't want to disassemble everything and take it back to the store.
So Target offers to PICK UP the item and still give him a refund. That wasn't good enough either.
In this regard, Target is being more than reasonable here.

I do think it was kind of shady that it took forever to get to talk to someone to give you an answer on what Target should of done....however, I think their return policy is nothing to write this forum about.
All companies purchase goods from other companies. How many stores are being affected by companies that went out of business due to the peanut butter scare. This is a tough economy right now and many businesses will fail until the economy evens out. It's not Target's fault the crib maker went out of business. The can't sign a contract with a business that says "you're not allowed to go out of business." You need to get used to that.
However, as you mentioned, Target said they would give you a refund. That is actually going above and beyond considering the business went away. They are going to eat that $300 you paid. Target is actually the true victim here...not you. You are inconvenienced....Target is actually the one losing money.
By the way...with Big Box retailers...the refund policy is simple. Bring the item in with your receipt...get a refund. I don't think it's Targets responsibility to go and pick up your item for you. You can take the crib back to Target, get your refund...and buy another crib. However, Target is ultimately the one getting the shaft on this deal as they cant recoup the money they paid for the crib.

Rooney - Back Saturday?
I think Saturday is too early for Wazza considering he only started full training this week. Besides, with Saha fit and fresh (no international duty for him), Ronny back from suspension and Tevez also available there's no need to rush Wazza back. I think a more realistic target is the bench for Sporting Lisbon and first team action against Chelski.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Tevez has just travelled from UK to Australia and back again raj, get real. He will not be able to start on sat! Saha and Roony up front seems the best policy.
A Yahoo! User Sep 14, 2007 07:38 Flag
Agree with Raj. Tevez and Saha to continue saturday, Rooney possibly on the bench but throwing him into a physical battle of the magnitude of Everton is risky. We have some big games coming up, he'll play his part Im sure. On another note I hope Nani keeps his place ahead of Giggs with Ronnie on the other flank.

Regular power outages are not acceptable
Published: Thursday, March 3, 2005 at 3:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 2, 2005 at 11:00 p.m.
The issue: Power outages for parish utility customers.
We suggest: Reliable service is a basic expectation.
Residents of the Woodlawn Ranch Road area deserve better electric-utility service than they are getting from the Terrebonne Parish Utility Department. Going into last weekend, they counted 14 power outages just since November. That's outrageous.
Parish utility officials are sympathetic and say they area working on improving service. That's good because the outage problem seems to exist to some degree all over the Parish Utilities Department service area. There are more than 11,000 parish utility electric customers in the Houma area, and probably most have had the experience of wondering why their power just went out on a bright, sunny day.
In the Woodlawn Ranch Road area, the outages are not brief either. "It's not just out 30 minutes," resident Holly Breaux told a Courier reporter. "It's more like two-and-a-half hours."
Geez, 30 minutes sounds like a long time.
Beyond the aggravation, residents are worried about the effect on home appliances. Perhaps fortunately, the Woodlawn Ranch area is served by a local government utility. That means they had recourse beyond complaining to a faceless corporation. In the time-honored tradition of the democratic process, residents gathered signatures on a petition and came to the Parish Council where they got a full hearing and some answers.
"We are extremely sensitive to their concerns," said Tom Bourg, parish utilities director, "and we are not pleased with the reliability of their service."
That was the right answer. Additionally, the utility is taking action, according to Bourg. Utility officials have been unable to determine the cause more than a third of the 21 Woodlawn Ranch Road-area outages they were aware of during the year ending Feb. 18. Some were weather-related, understandably, and some were because of equipment failures. Meanwhile, beyond the sagging line that was shorting out the circuit and a known flaw in the circuit that serves the area, the Utilities Department is adding equipment that will help limit future outages and is hiring a company to study the electrical system and create a model to better operate it more reliably.
Another complaint, leaning power poles, is probably not totally the utility's fault. Our area is soggy, and the ground is slowly sinking. Utility operators elsewhere don't face that challenge.
Leaning poles are unsightly and could eventually even be a hazard, but it's unlikely they are causing power all the outages.
The Terrebonne Parish government administration was asked to investigate and give a follow-up report to Parish Council members next week. Residents in the Woodlawn Ranch area and everyone else served by the parish utility deserve dependable service and rightfully expect action.
Electric service is a basic quality-of-life issue. Parish officials should use the pursuit of this problem as an opportunity to make life better for the community.

Tim Coppens is not the ebullient sort.
This story first appeared in the May 29, 2013 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
The Belgian-born designer, who launched his men's wear collection in 2011, smiles rarely and takes his craft quite seriously. But while he may not be the back-slapping, joke-a-minute type, he's definitely doing something right.
An avid snowboarder and cyclist, his special take on men's wear is helping to define a new aesthetic of a global youth movement with a blend of streetwear and athleticism. He has developed an expertise in tailoring luxury fabrics with technologically advanced materials. Barneys New York was the first retailer to sign on to buy his collection in its debut season. Stockists now also include Louis Boston, Altai in Los Angeles, LN-CC in the U.K. and Isetan in Tokyo.
Coppens has received industry recognition for his work, capturing the Ecco Domani award for Best New Menswear Designer and the Fashion Group International's Menswear Rising Star award. Most recently, he was nominated for this year's Council of Fashion Designers of America Swarovski Award for Menswear.
RELATED CONTENT: Tim Coppens Men's RTW Fall 2013 >>
The designer graduated from the acclaimed Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 1998, then moved to Munich to design for the active luxury brand Bogner. In 2004, he joined Adidas to lead the conceptual development of a new high-end men's performance division. Four years later, he was recruited by Ralph Lauren to move to New York to become design director for RLX, the company's most technical offering.
With that solid background, he made the decision to branch out on his own. Coppens admits that taking that leap was anxiety provoking, but when Barneys gave him a vote of confidence by buying his first collection, he knew he was on his way.
"I remember when Barneys said they liked it. But then I knew the next step was to produce it," he said.
He hunkered down and drew from his background working at the other brands, and the collection came together. Since then, the collection has grown in scope, and in February, Coppens staged his first runway show.
"Every season we grow a little more," he said. "It's a little scary, but the more you grow, the more risk you have to take."
The fall collection centered around athletic street classics such as bomber jackets and parkas with voluminous sleeves, sweatshirts embellished with graphic prints and sleek dress pants cinched at the bottom. Graffiti prints, statement zippers and closures, and leather paneling details pushed the collection into designer sportswear territory.
Showing that collection on the runway for the first time was a milestone for the New York-based brand.
"I always wanted to do a show, but I gave it a couple of seasons," he said. "I needed to give people the opportunity to get to know the brand first, but then I was ready to step it up a little. Choosing the location, the music, the graphics, that's important for the image of a brand."
Although Coppens knows that he has garnered a reputation for clothes with touches of athleticism, he's quick to point out that they're "not athletic clothes." Instead, he endeavors to offer a collection with "energy and fast-paced movement. It's not a static collection."
His next collection will have something to do with speed, he hinted.
Coppens believes that there's more crossover today between sports brands and sportswear, and he plays into that by experimenting with different fabrics and construction techniques to create something special.
"It comes down to functionality," he said. "And you wear clothes, so they have to be functional."
Experimenting with different forms of artistic expression has been part of Coppens' life from the beginning. Growing up, he didn't aspire to become a designer, but he was always interested in creating things and was intrigued by the construction of garments.
"My parents let me explore," he said, adding that he also dabbled in painting and sculpting. "I never said I wanted to be a designer, but when I went to the Academy, I picked fashion because I didn't know it and wanted to learn."
Looking five years down the road, Coppens wants to continue to grow his company at a consistent yet manageable rate. But don't expect any major shifts in direction.
"You'll continue to see what you've seen up until now; we're going to keep communicating that," he said. He would like to offer additional products, as well as a collection that could be sold at a more affordable price. "It wouldn't be a diffusion line, but it would be complementary," he said. "We're thinking that would be a natural evolution."
He's also set his sights on expanding into women's wear. "I want to do that someday," he added. "There's a lot more to explore."

Is Stauskas Injury Cause for Concern?
10/08/15 1:41 pm EST
The 76ers announced on Monday that shooting guard Nik Stauskas has been diagnosed with a right tibia stress reaction, but will only be sidelined for the next two weeks as a "precautionary" measure. Brett Brown maintained that despite the injury, Stauskas should be ready for the season opener later this month.
After practice yesterday Stauskas himself commented to a group of media members (Including Philadunkia's @therealmkbizzy), "Obviously this is a little bit of a setback, but I'm not too worried about it."
Raise your hand if you have heard these lines come out of the 76ers' practice facility in the last few years.
While each injury is unique and each player heals differently, the Sixers and Stauskas may want to pump the brakes on a quick return to action for #11.

Von Hagen on Flexible Payroll Tax
Jürgen von Hagen, economics professor at the University of Bonn and a noted specialist in fiscal policy, had two main comments on the suggestion (which I wrote about here and here) that other members of the euro zone could benefit from a flexible payroll tax, as Finland introduced in 1999 when it joined the European Monetary Union.
First, he says that Germany has done the same thing in a different way.
"Part of Germany's labor market legislation allows the federal government to pay supplementary incomes to workers on 'work shortage'. Employers can apply to the government for work shortage status. It is granted when the firm does not have sufficient orders to keep its work force busy, when temporary layoffs cannot be compensated with vacation days, and provided the shortage is sufficiently severe. Under those circumstances, the federal government can pay the workers' social contributions on behalf of the firm. This amounts to the same thing: A reduction in unit labor cost which translates into a devaluation of the real exchange rate."
Second, he says what might work for a few smaller countries shouldn't be used by a big country like Germany and, if all governments of the euro zone do it, nobody wins and the governments just lose tax revenues.
"The German or Finnish arrangement is a smart idea if an individual small country does it. If a large country like Germany does it, it amounts to an old-fashioned beggar-thy-neighbor policy with adverse effects on the labor markets in other EMU countries. Remember that the Finnish arrangement was designed for cases when Finland is in a recession and the rest of EMU in a boom. When all are in a severe recession, as recently, such an action should be regarded much more critically if taken by a large country. Finally, if all do it, then of course nobody gains, and the governments are left with the bill."

Even though the Gables is precariously close to the cultural void of Kendall, it has many exciting places to feed the brain. This is oneof them. Although it is part of a chain, this location is unique. They have a HUGE selection of regularly priced books, along with an INCREDIBLE selection of sales books. Many of the reduced priced books are exceptional values. The store s very comfortable and even sells coffee and tea, if you like to read and drink. They also schedule readings and meet the authors. Good deal!

The Spanish-American War
The Spanish-American War Terms
AnnexationThis is a formal act in which a state or nation claims control over territory outside its domain, often after some form of military conquest, or by military occupation.
Cuba LibreIn the late 1890s, the American press published stories of war atrocities in Cuba. Spanish colonial forces, the American public learned, were responsible for the starvation and suffering of the Cuban colonists. These stories stirred the sentiments Americans and inspired many to offer support to the Cuban cause. "Cuba Libre" ("A Free Cuba") was the rallying cry behind rallies, food drives, and fund-raisers held throughout the United States.
DepressionA period of economic malaise during which business and employment decline.
A depression is a severe economic downturn marked by a sharp rise in unemployment and a steep decline in manufacturing and production. Before the Great Depression of the 1930s, economic crises were referred to as "panics."
ExpansionistAny practice, policy, or person in support of territorial or economic expansion.
Gilded AgeFrom the title of Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner's 1873 novel, the "Gilded Age" became a term popularly associated with the second half of the nineteenth century, a period from the end of the Civil War to the turn of the twentieth century marked by political corruption and materialism.
The name coined by Mark Twain for the last quarter of the nineteenth century in America. Twain meant to emphasize that behind the fabulous new wealth of the era there was a decadent and thoroughly corrupt core.
The name coined by Mark Twain for the last quarter of the nineteenth century in America. Twain meant to emphasize that behind the fabulous new wealth of the era, there was a decadent and thoroughly corrupt core.
Imperialism, Imperialistic, ImperialistImperialism is generally defined as any government policy or action that is aimed at exerting power over another territory or nation of people. In its most obvious form, imperialism involves the use of military force, often to acquire land. But it can also be the result of more subtle extensions of power such—economic, political, or religious.
Independencia O MuerteThis Spanish phrase, meaning "Independence or Death," was the bold slogan used by Cuban revolutionary leaders such as José Martí and Máximo Gómez to rally the Cuban people behind the 1895 movement to expel the Spanish colonizers and achieve national independence.
Insurgent, Insurgency, InsurgentsAny person who resists an established government regime, usually with force, may be considered an "insurgent," particularly by the state. Often insurgents consider themselves to be "rebels" or "revolutionaries" fighting against an authority they consider corrupt.
Manifest DestinyThe concept, popular in the nineteenth century, that the United States was ordained by God to conquer the entire North American continent.
This phrase was first coined in 1845 by those who advocated the annexation of Texas. Thereafter it became the calling card for western expansion and, ultimately, a rallying cry for those who sought to justify American imperialism.
First used by those who supported the annexation of Texas in 1845, the term later justified American settlement of the Great Plains and the West (and then the broadening of the American empire).
The idea, popular in the mid-nineteenth century, that the United States was ordained by God to spread across the entire North American continent.

Definition of Riemannian geometry in English:
Riemannian geometry
noun[mass noun]
A form of differential non-Euclidean geometry developed by Bernhard Riemann, used to describe curved space. It provided Einstein with a mathematical basis for his general theory of relativity.
Example sentences
- His interests had turned away from affine and projective differential geometry and turned towards Riemannian geometry.
- The argument relegating Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry to footnotes of Riemannian geometry would be valid only if one were conceiving them as the 'standard' geometries over the real numbers.
- His research on the theory of real algebraic varieties, Riemannian geometry, parabolic and elliptic equations was, however, extremely deep and significant in the development of all these topics.

As a teen with big teeth and NHS specs, Janet Street Porter only got cards from her mum. 50 years on she still thinks: Valentine's Day? It's just for smug CREEPS!
Today is the day I dread. Valentine's Day is when the country is cruelly divided into winners and losers.
You can easily spot the winners — those smug creeps swanning around with a self-satisfied grin on their faces, like the cat that got the cream.
They're the ones who have had flowers delivered to their office, or who already know they have been invited out for a 'special treat' this evening. The ones who got a hand-delivered card or present posted through their letterbox at dawn.
Romance? No thanks! According to JSP, Valentine's Day is a celebration invented by the card companies
The ones whose partner proposed to them on the train to work, or whose chap rented a billboard so the whole world could share in their undying love.
Or the ones who awoke to find a saucy e-card had plopped into their in-box overnight. YUCK!
The rest of us — the so-called losers in love — will spend today superficially behaving as normal, acting as if we've better things to do than drink Prosecco and eat oysters by candlelight (pretending we're going to our book clubs, have signed up for hot yoga or are meeting some friends for a pizza).
But deep down we'll be experiencing that mixture of jealousy and impotent rage that only comes on Valentine's Day — because we've been unfairly categorised as rejects, yet again.
Tossed on the stockpile of non-essential singletons. Destined never to rise to the dizzy heights of being an object of love, or even an object of fumbled lust.
I loathe the banality of Valentine's Day, the horrible notion of designating one day in the year the occasion to declare our love for another person. It seems so arbitrary.
A fake 'celebration' exploited by greetings card manufacturers and florists.
Schmalz: Janet can't stand the faux romance and cheap, mass produced Valentine's Day cards

As for the romantic concept of anonymity, that vanished decades ago.
These days, hand-made cards, designer chocolates, flowers grown in the depth of arctic weather and tasteful-not-tarty knickers are so expensive we want to make sure the lucky recipient knows who coughed up, so we sign our names on the package.
Valentine's Day started before the Middle Ages — even Chaucer wrote about it.
The Victorians celebrated it by sending beautiful hand-painted cards with lacey cutouts of birds and flowers.
But back in those days, sex was something that happened after marriage, not post happy hour at the pub.
Romantic love really existed, and these cards were one way to express the unsayable, and perhaps win a woman's heart.
In the modern world of sexting and round-robin emails about sexual conquests in the workplace, what's so special about coughing up for a mass produced Valentine card, or an over-priced bunch of tulips or roses at your local supermarket?
My hatred of Valentine's Day started as a teenager. With NHS specs, beige hair and big teeth, I was never going to be the stuff of anyone's dreams.
In my mind I was a winner, an individual, someone whose potential hadn't yet been spotted by any local member of the opposite sex.
Even so, every Valentine's Day was torture — the day when all the 'normal' girls gloated and made the rest of us feel awkward and miserable because we weren't wearing padded bras and didn't have a cheap card from some spotty bloke who worked at the chip shop and wanted to get into our knickers.
Back in those days, the post arrived before school, so the lying started at 9 am upon arrival in the playground.
Worse than getting nothing was receiving a naff card with a scribble inside that you knew your mum had sent you out of pity.
These were easily detected by the postmark, which gave away the fact that she'd mailed it on her way to work the day before.
Although by the time I was 16 I had managed to score a few real cards, sadly these were mostly sent by boys who were so creepy I chucked their attempts at romance straight in the bin. These vulgar offerings weren't worthy of a snog!
Aural anguish: Just a few bars of Chris de Burgh (left) and Bryan Adams (right) is enough to have Janet reaching for the sick bag
Over the years, I have come to associate Valentine's Day with lying and deception. I've often given cards to men I'm fed up with, just for a quiet life. It's polite, isn't it?
Real love, true passion, has been downgraded into this bland marketing opportunity. I might make a funny card for my partner, but it will celebrate his quirky shortcomings, not his prowess in bed.
As for going out, this is the worst night of the year to be in a restaurant, as any maître d' will confirm.
At exactly the same time, your favourite hostelry will fill up with slightly embarrassed couples who will start the evening whispering, then gradually run out of things to say to each other, before swiftly degenerating into a bored mutual silence.
Between each couple will be a sad single rose or carnation in a glass, bravely trying to convey a feeling of gorgeous romance.
In the background, smoochy music will attempt to paper over the cracks in these flimsy relationships. But how many times can you endure a loop of Chris de Burgh's Lady In Red, Bryan Adams' (Everything I Do) I Do It For You and — the killer track that has me reaching for the sick bag — Whitney Houston burbling I Will Always Love You?
By 10pm, it's all over. Half the couples will have had a row and left separately, new parents will have dashed home to pay the babysitter.
Dodgy dining: Thanks to the cooing couples, Valentine's Day is the worst day of the year to have supper out
The rest have drunk a couple of bottles of house plonk, called a cab and are on their way for some sex (or not, depending on the amount of units consumed). All in all, a washout.
Instead, on Valentine's Day, why not celebrate our friendships — our relationships that don't rely on sex?
I shall be spending this evening having a meal with one of my ex-husbands and his very nice wife, together with my partner of ten years, an old friend and her sister. We've known each other for ever, and it will be an evening of laughter and love.
As a society, we need to connect more with our friends.
Research shows that the number of people we count as 'close' has diminished drastically over the past decade.
There's a worrying number of people who now say they have no one special in their lives at all, and more of us than ever are living alone.
I want Valentine's Day to be an opportunity for us to reach out and be friendlier to each other.
To hell with the roses, the chocolates, the smutty cards and the frilly pants — why not hug a total stranger today. That's what modern love should be about.

Interesting to see in the most recent interview posted here that Carlsen said that the best player should be world champion and that this had not been the case for some time.
This might highlight the difference between match play and tourney play + rankings. If Anand held the championship a few times while not rated the highest or winning the biggest tourneys...was he still the best player for beating his challengers anyway? Interesting question.
when anand got his title he was the top player in the world, but he hasn't been for years now.
I agree, but that's what is fun to discuss. Suppose Anand had won this latest match...many would say he was not the best player in the world, but if he beats all comers in matches, is he?
Interesting to see in the most recent interview posted here that Carlsen said that the best player should be world champion and that this had not been the case for some time.
Actually, what Carlsen said was a bit different. He said that the world champion should be proving that he his the best player in the world.
In defence of Anand, he has had to defend his title in back to back years, and his age probably didn't permit him to participate in as many tournaments as Carlsen. When Carlsen is Anand's age, he probably won't still have the same appetite for tournaments. If Carlsen was criticizing Anand, it was somewhat unfair.
Well yes, but that is even more damning and I did not want to characterize it this way. I am not sure Carlsen meant to imply that Anand had been hiding out as world champ with the #8 ranking...and what should Anand have done, thrown a match to lose the championship if he did not feel he was the absolute best? ;)
It's not like the old days anymore, where world champions could simply refuse a challenge just because he was not shoved a large enough suitcase of 100 dollar bills. With such regular matches nowadays, and with an improving candidates cycle, the world champion has rightfully earned his title if he is able to best all challengers.
Carlsen has no reason to be aggrieved that Anand was not toppled sooner, since he withdrew himself from the previous candidates cycle.
That's what happened to Karpov when he was given the title from Fischer.
Anand wasn't the best player in the world just because he won a rapid tiebreak against Gelfand. The problem with matches is that it makes it too "simple" to just pronounce the latest winner of a match between two players the best player in the world (regardless who the participants in the match are). It is after all only one event between two players. Anand may have kept the title after two very even matches against Topalov and Gelfand, but these players have all been quite a bit below the top three the last three-four years.

Skylight finds power of human spirit in 'El Cimarron'
Esteban Montejo, a onetime Cuban slave who lived to be 113, loved trees and the forests that held them. It's therefore no accident that Lisa Schlenker's scenic design for the just-opened Skylight Music Theatre production of "El Cimarrón" — Hans Werner Henze's musical adaptation of Montejo's remarkable autobiography — revolves around a massive tree.
Trees, Montejo continually suggests, are not just alive. They're also analogous to people, with their shadows expressly linked in his autobiography to human spirits. »Read Full Article

Definition of amphipathic in English:
(also amphiphilic /ˌamfɪˈfɪlɪk/)
(Of a molecule, especially a protein) having both hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts.
Example sentences
- Many peptides and proteins interact strongly with amphiphilic molecules and these interactions are of vast importance, not only in vivo but also in technical applications.
- This should be taken as an indication that the contributions of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic portions of the amphiphilic molecules to the free energy of interaction with the solvent phases are not independent.
- In our present paper, we added a spherical nanoparticle interacting attractively with the hydrophilic segments of amphiphilic molecules.
1930s: from amphi- + Greek pathikos (from pathos 'experience').

We'll see you back in 2 seasons. You'll be a bit stronger then. Perhaps your manager will use his head and grab some of the youngsters at Chelsea on loan.

If you do I'll look forward to your quick return.
