Report: Velasquez vs. Werdum at UFC 172 in Mexico City on April 19 or 26
When Cain Velasquez beat Junior dos Santos, the next challenger for the UFC heavyweight championship was already lined up – Fabrcio Werdum. Now a report coming out of Mexico says the fight will be at UFC 172, at the league's debut show in Mexico.
It's a matter of days for the UFC will officially announced the first event in Mexico. The Arena Mexico City will host the marquee 172 event, broadcast on pay per view in the United States, that will be headlined by Cain Velasquez vs. challenger for the heavyweight belt, the Brazilian Fabricio Werdum.
The date, the weekend of the 19th or April 26th 2014 is perfect for the Mexican American Velasquez, as he will have half a year to make full preparation. On Tuesday afternoon, the president Dana White confirmed that the announcement will take place on Mexican soil. That moment could come in the coming weeks as the company's promotional activity intensifies.
This Sunday, the heavyweight champion returns to Mexico for the second time in less than two months. One of the priorities of the company in 2014 is Latin America.
The matchmakers at the UFC, Sean Shelby and Joe Silva, are also working to ensure that fighters with Latin roots are included. Names such as Diego Sanchez, Gilbert Melendez, and Kelvin Gastelum are on the deck. Besides the possibility that Erik Perez Nuevo Leon fight on Mexican soil and the likely debuts of fighters that are in the development program for more than six months.
Another names that may be announced is Gabriel "Moggly" Tijuana Benitez, who will fight at 145 pounds on December 6 in Albuquerque, New Mexico in what could be his last fight before the promotion's debut show in Mexico. Other names include Augusto "Dodger" Montaño and Argentine Martin Cannetti Guido, who have been training in the Greg Jackson camp.

In the endless struggles between Jews and Muslims in Israel and the West Bank, in countries like Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan and other places where they are a minority population, Christians are suffering terribly. They are in a no-win situation. Politically, they don't count to the powers-that-be; economically, they are in dire straits. In some places, they are not even allowed to self-identify as Christian. This is a source of deep concern to Pope Benedict XIV and should be to us as well.
The internal resources of the Eastern churches themselves are not able to keep up with the pastoral, educational and social services needs of their people, especially in the places that are experiencing violence. The Eastern churches need our assistance.
Fortunately, there is a way for us to help: the Catholic Near East Welfare Association (CNEWA), a pontifical agency established in 1926 in Rome by Pope Pius XI with administrative offices here in New York City at the Catholic Center. Its mission is to assist the Eastern Churches, to work for church unity, and to raise consciousness here in the West about the churches and peoples of the East. CNEWA works with the local churches to address their needs. This is how CNEWA describes its activities.
"From training priests to serve the people of God in India to providing clean water systems to war-damaged villages in Lebanon – from providing job opportunities to unemployed Palestinians to caring for orphaned children in Ethiopia – from providing health care to the poor in Iraq to awarding scholarships for Orthodox priests to study in Catholic universities in Rome, CNEWA connects generous North Americans with those in need living in some of the remotest parts of the world."
So what can we as individuals, as parishes or as parish-based religious education programs do through CNEWA? We can sponsor a child's future, help a man answer God's call to priesthood, help men and women who wish to join religious life. And more. It is so easy.
For example, just $28 dollars per month (you can send a check or have the money charged automatically to a credit card) will make you as an individual or a team of people the sponsor of a boy's or girl's room, board, health care and education. The sponsor(s) receives a profile and a photo of his, her or their child annually along with a progress report. Sponsors may even write to their children. $28.00. That's fewer than three movie tickets, about half of what it costs to fill a gas tank…but for a child in a country served by CNEWA it goes so very, very far. By the way, you'll be interested to know that your money goes through the Church's own diplomatic channels. Local Governments have no access to those funds.
When you join with CNEWA, you also receive a wonderful magazine, One. There's also a terrific on-line newsletter for all to read and learn from.
Most of us Christians trace our faith to Rome. However, there are the great ancient Churches: the churches of Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem. These Eastern churches are found in the Middle East, the Horn of Africa, parts of India and also Western Europe. Of course, the mother church of us all is Jerusalem, as Pope Paul VI stated. So we truly are brothers and sisters to these Eastern churches. What we do for them through CNEWA is all in the family.

Fire up those knitting needles and in due time, you too can have a royal baby of your own.
Fiona Goble, the creator of Knit Your Own Royal Wedding (which recreated the royal wedding with knitted figurines), has made an addition to her popular knitting patterns – the impending royal baby!
"In preparation for Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge's new bundle of joy, I'm very happy to announce the arrival of my own little woolly royal. It's been a privilege to prepare this 'little extra' for Catherine and Will dolls in my book," Goble says.
While Goble says she hopes she's "captured a good likeness" to the yet-to-be-born child, only time will tell as the baby isn't due until July. But with Kate recently spotted shopping for antiques, a little crafting might be just what the doctor ordered for the expectant mother.

Sookie goes through her physical recuperation at the beginning of the book, and I think she's recovering mentally through the book. But of course, life and death keep happening around her. Bless her heart.
To whose family, or families, does the title of Dead in the Family refer? Any surprises?
I certainly hope there are a lot of surprises. There are several families included in the story; Bill's family, Eric's family, Sookie's family. I think some of the family members will startle the readers.
Amelia, Sookie's roommate, who thinks more of her powers as a witch than perhaps she should, has a lot of fans. Can you tell us anything about her future?
Amelia, as the beginning of the book makes clear, is returning to New Orleans to try to restart her life there. She's left too many loose ends to stay in Bon Temps. She'll recur in Sookie's life.
And so does Bill, although he and Sookie have been broken up for most of the series at this point. A lot of people—myself included—keep hoping they'll end up together again. Are we just being naive fangirls, or is there any hope left for Sookie and Bill?
There's always hope.
The Fellowship of the Sun, a vampire-hating cult, is full of such believable and diabolical villains. Will we see them again?
Sure. I love a good villain, and the Fellowship is full of 'em.
The HBO series True Blood is delectable, but it certainly differs from your novels in parts of the plot and some characterizations. When you watch the show, what representations most pleased you, and what most surprised you?
I love the show, too, and I'm glad it's different from the books. That way I don't get bored. I'm happy with ALL the casting, there's not a one I would change. I was very surprised about the plot change that resulted in Jessica's being brought over, but I think she's a great character.You've also written a mystery series for Berkley Prime Crime about sleuth Harper Connelly, who can sense the location of a person's death and their last moments, making her life as an investigator for the families of the deceased very interesting—and dangerous. For fans who haven't discovered the series that started with Grave Sight, can you tell us a bit more about it?
As you said, it's more of a mystery based series, with a dash of the supernatural. The Harper Connelly books are travelling books. Harper and her companion Tolliver go to a new town in every book. Harper, while trying to solve the current murder in each book, is also anxious to find out what happened to her sister, who disappeared years before. And she's struggling to make a life for herself despite the terrible upbringing she and Tolliver, her stepbrother, endured.
In fact, you were published as a mystery writer for more than 20 years before you began the Sookie series. Would your advice to an aspiring author looking to break into publishing differ depending on the genre they wanted to write?
No. If you want to be the best writer you can be—and who doesn't?—you need to read, read, read, and then sit down, take a deep breath, and write. At first it won't be good. It's hard work to become the writer you want to be.
You just had your first book tour through Europe! Can you share some of your favorite moments? What did fans of Sookie from across the pond seem to most want to know?
Actually, my fans in other countries wanted to know exactly the same things my fans here want to know! My favorite moment came in Poland, when some of my younger fans curtsied to me. I loved it. And meeting some wonderful journalists and a great radio personality, Rosaria Renna, in Italy, I enjoyed that. In Portugal, my publishers took me to Sintra, which was amazing. And England—well, I just loved being in England.
Any final thoughts to share with your readers?
I hope you all enjoy the continuation of Sookie's adventures, and I look forward to seeing you on tour and hearing from you on the website when the book is out.

Recently, Judith Reitman of the travel news, information and resources blog/website where to go next stayed with us during her visit to Richmond and gave us a glowing review.
Of course, Judith visited before the Regency Room was redecorated. Now its brass bed has been replaced with a vintage rococco-style upholstered headboard, the plaid draperies behind the bed have been updated with new ones, a new dustruffle dresses the bed, and new custom fabric "London-style" shades top the shutters at the windows. Its still elegant – just a little different and, somehow more spacious.
She was also here earlier in the year, before Spring came to Richmond. In fact, we had snow while she visited! Now the yard around the inn is covered with annual color of coleus, impatiens, petunias, and million bells. Hydrangeas are blooming, and yellow roses dot the east garden. Birds have nested, young birds have flown the nest and frequent the yard as they search for shelter from predators and, of course, food. The fish are awake in the fishpond and every evening break the surface looking for food.
And, the porch is ready for porch-sitting! Multi-colored cushions and pillows make the sitting easier on the porch rockers. Two new tables between the rockers are the perfect spot to set that glass of wine or your laptop.
So y'all come! Ya hear! You'll enjoy charm and elegance at our urban bed and breakfast!

Click the link for daily surf reports presented by Nichols Surf Shop, 411 Flagler Ave., New Smyrna Beach
NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- Due to the popularity of a park and ride shuttle offered a few months ago, the NSB Waterfront Loop once again will offer free rides to a popular Flagler Avenue event.
The shuttle will tote LOOP-goers Aug. 16 to the 5th annual Flagler Avenue Shrimp and Seafood Festival.
NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- Just how many people were without power or for how long resulting from Saturday night's thunderstorm is anybody's guess because media inquiries went unanswered.
As Headline Surfer reported exclusively, lightning from a fast-moving thunderstorm rolling through the city, struck a substation transmission line and knocked out power for customers in parts of the city.

Miguel Angel Frank departed this life on earth from Halifax Health Hospice of Volusia/Flagler, Edgewater Care Center, Edgewater, on October 4, 2011, and ascended into Heaven to join his beloved Cuban Family.

Ever since Google introduced the Android mobile
OS to the world in the fall of 2008, the company has advocated an open-source
approach to its development and implementation. On one hand, this attitude
helped fuel Android's
auspicious growth. On the other hand, it also resulted in a
fragmented OS. Now, Google is beginning to rein in the rampant tweaking of
the software, in an effort aimed at uniformity.
BusinessWeek reports that Google over the last few months has sent this message to the
major carriers and device manufacturers that support Android: Playtime is over.
Google, particularly Android head Andy Rubin, will have oversight of any future
Android partnerships, and anyone who wants early access to the latest iteration
of the software will need to seek permission from Rubin himself.
Google that once welcomed all comers to help get its mobile software off the
ground has become far more discriminating—especially for companies that want to
include Google services such as search and maps on their hardware," Bloomberg reports.
Rubin predicted the fragmentation that would follow a platform as open as
Android. That's why the company chooses a chipmaker and device manufacturer
when it launches a new product, to show off what it can accomplish. In the
past, it was Qualcomm and HTC -- both companies have made huge market gains as
a result.
to several sources for Bloomberg's report,
Google has demanded that Android licensees abide by "non-fragmentation
clauses" that grant Google the final word on customization matters. It
also means they need approval from Google to partner with others. John
Lagerlin, director of global Android partnerships, told Bloomberg that it's about quality control and
aiming towards a "common denominator" experience.
And while
Rubin claims that a clause has always been part of the license, sources say
that Google has been clamping down in recent months. Facebook, which is trying
to launch its
own Android device, has reportedly been unhappy because of Google's
oversight. Google has also gotten involved with an upcoming Android phone from
Verizon that incorporates rival Microsoft's Bing search engine, holding up its
policy has reportedly resulted in complaints to the Justice Department. Google
declined to comment on this aspect.
addition, Google has also begun to withhold code from the public, which hurts
developers and smaller companies. According to Bloomberg, Google will not
release the source code for the tablet Honeycomb OS anytime in the near
premise of a true open software platform may be where Android started, but it's
not where Android is going," Nokia Chief Executive Stephen Elop told Bloomberg. Elop, a former
Microsoft executive, recently established a
"strategic partnership" with his former employer instead of Google because, he says, he
would be able to innovate more with Windows Phone 7 than Android.
often got criticized for treating all partners the same, whether they were
doing great work or mediocre work," Gartner analyst Michael Gartenberg
told Bloomberg.
"Google seems to have no problem with playing favorites."
bottom line from the report: "Despite grumblings, Google's Android mobile
operating system is still open—it's just getting more heavily policed."
quote: Playtime is over in Android Land. Over the last couple of months Google has reached out to the major carriers and device makers backing its mobile operating system with a message: There will be no more willy-nilly tweaks to the software. No more partnerships formed outside of Google's purview. From now on, companies hoping to receive early access to Google's most up-to-date software will need approval of their plans. And they will seek that approval from Andy Rubin, the head of Google's Android group.
quote: Microsoft is definitely making money off the Xbox 360. Yes they lost a lot of money initially. Compounded by the $1 billion dollar charge for all the warranties on early 360s.
quote: Because those core products are sustainable. There will always be a need for those products, contrary to your consumer gadget takeover mantra.
quote: Why would they possibly lock any service exclusively to Android? Everything Google does is web based. They do everything web based because of their ads. It's how they make their money which you even admitted too. By putting services exclusively on Android they would be cutting into their very own revenues.Once all the iPad clones crash and burn? You were saying the same crap about Android against iOS and how did that turn out? We'll see how Samsung does with their 10.1 and 8.9 tablet's running Honeycomb at competitive prices. I expect them to do rather well. Not iPad well since Samsung doesn't have an RDF to herd the sheep, but in the end users prefer choice and openness of their devices. This is already seen with how quickly Android has grown and the failure of iPhone 4 on Verizon.
quote: Here, let's word this for you as simple as possible since you depend on apple products:Since day one, Android =! Google Phone.Android = openGoogle Apps = closedUse Android = open platformWant Google integration = closed platform.Stop trying to spread FUD with your bull sh it.
quote: (there was always secret clauses negotiated with Android handset makers - these remain secret)
quote: Open means anybody can use it. iOS isn't open. Android is open.If you would just drag your head out of the RDF for a minute you'd realize that Google doesn't want to go walled garden. They want to stop crap like this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=117...Hopefully they want to stop stupid stuff like Sense, Blur and Touchwiz as well because stuff like that causes tons of lag time in updating a phone to the latest Android version.Google also wants to stop stuff like what Samsung is doing to their customers. Keep promising updates but never actually updating squat. That's all Google wants to do because that will reel in the fragmentation. Any platform (your beloved Apple included) has some sort of fragmentation. The key to minimize it which is what Google is trying to do.Google wants Android to be relative untouched. Anything that gets added to it needs to be an installed package. HTC gives us Sense because its "pretty". The problem is not everybody likes Sense. I hate it. My Thunderbolt doesn't have it anymore thanks to rooting. Tmobile released an open source theme engine for Android. That's what Google wants. That way HTC can push out updates to its phones faster then they already do.
quote: Xbox is making money. The amount doesn't matter (no matter what you say) because the point is they are making profit.
quote: What do you mean Google blocks Bing from searching Youtube? I just pulled up 2 videos both going back to YouTube. http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=super+bowl+201...
quote: There is a big difference between being "our best launch" and being successful. Sorry but even Verizon has said sales were below expectations. What happened to all those predictions of 11 million devices on Verizon sold?
quote: iPod dominance wasn't due to the device. It was due to iTunes and DRM forcing people into a platform. Joe Average doesn't know that they can burn those songs to a CD and rip back into MP3 which would be DRM free. They just know that if they don't keep using iTunes their music stops working.
quote: Nobody should love or be as obsessed with any company as Tony is with Apple.

SULLIVAN'S ISLAND — A newly designed military vehicle will be tested here, officials said.
The workout in the surf is part of an evaluation process for the vehicle prior to delivery, said Tommy Pruitt, a spokesman for defense contractor General Dynamics Land Systems.
"We're not offering a lot of details about the vehicle. We can only say it's a military vehicle. Part of the testing will be done in the community," Pruitt said.
Testing will happen between March 4 and April 20. During that time, the vehicle also will be put through its paces in fresh water at a public boat landing managed by Berkeley County, according to a presentation made to Town Council on Tuesday night.
Specific dates and locations for the testing were not available, Pruitt said.
The vehicle that moves on land and water was made elsewhere, he said, but the testing is being done here because of more favorable weather conditions.
Town Council OK'd the activity, and on Tuesday received an update on it. "They have not indicated exactly where they are going to do the testing. We don't know much about the vehicle," Councilman Jerry Kaynard said.
The test will be conducted safely in a secure area, he said.
"Council felt it was an appropriate activity," Kaynard said. "We were really trying to accommodate a local company."
Mayor Carl Smith said he thought the testing would be fun to watch.
"Historically, Sullivan's Island has been involved in the military since 1670," he said.
Smith said the council was curious about what the vehicle looked like.
"Once they start maneuvers out here, anybody can take pictures," he said.
Pruitt said a photo of the vehicle was not available for public release.
"Swim and surf testing" will occur near Charleston Harbor. The vehicle will be launched at a private boat landing and/or beach entrance, according to a copy of the presentation to council.
All required approvals have been obtained from local, state and federal regulators, the document states.

When MTV reality star Diem Brown was diagnosed with ovarian cancer at 23, she had to have one ovary, several lymph nodes and part of her fallopian tube removed – but she didn't let that stop her from traveling to Australia to participate in the Real World/Road Rules Challenge one month later.
Now she'll have her strength tested again.
Brown, who founded MedGift, a gift registry for those suffering any illness, was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer yet again.
"Didn't think ovarian cancer could come back," Brown, 30, Tweeted last week. "Please get internal ultrasounds/year."
In May, she Tweeted that "pain is an indicator telling u something is wrong," and that she needed to have a "large cyst" removed because of elevated CA125 levels. Luckily, her doctor was able to leave in 30 percent of her remaining ovary so that she could harvest eggs.
"Want the baby hope," she wrote. "On a mission 2try&find ANY fertility doctor that will allow me2 freeze ovarian tissue even w/ovarian cancer."
She found him. Brown is working with NYU doctor Jamie Grifo, and added that she's getting shots to "get some eggs" before her second ovary is removed entirely.
"I know I will be fine," she writes. "I beat Cancer once & I'm gonna do it again! I know God has a reason for every speed bump in life & I'm ready."
Diem Brown Reveals She Has Ovarian Cancer Again

ROARING SPRING - As the Spring Cove school board grapples with the prospect of closing a $1 million budget deficit, administrators are vowing to adopt high-tech teaching methods at the expense of small-scale and individual student programs.
Tax increases alone won't be enough to close a potential shortfall, which stands at nearly $1.05 million, Business Manager John Clark told the board Tuesday in a budget presentation. A series of graphs showed only tiny increases in government funding while retirement costs continue to rise.
But with enrollment numbers in a downward slide, an administration overhaul and program cuts could pave the way for a new curriculum, Superintendent Robert Vadella said in a prepared statement on behalf of the board.
"We can no longer limp along and ignore the need to properly outfit our curriculum with the necessary and sufficient tools," Vadella said.
A stronger focus on science, technology, engineering and math - a popular shift in recent years - coupled with personal technology access for each student could represent a major change in career opportunities for Spring Cove graduates, he said. Vadella's statement referenced a "one-to-one technology strategy," a plan that usually entails a personal computer or tablet for each student.
"Now the big question: How can we afford to do this?" he said.
The answer, according to the board's budget plan, is to cut expensive but little-used programs that serve small numbers of students.
"At this point, we do not have any specifics on the programs that will be impacted by such curtailments," Vadella said.
Board President Jeff Brennecke did not return a call seeking information on possible cuts Wednesday.
The board statement details the process by which programs might be eliminated: Administrators will calculate the per-student cost of each program and the number of people involved with an eye toward cutting those that operate beyond their means.
The plan is reflected in administrative changes already under way, including the transfer of Central High School's assistant principal and Vadella's personal secretary to newly created, districtwide positions.
Nonteaching jobs will be reviewed to determine if they are essential, board members said.
Tax increases will be considered, but specifics aren't known, the statement reads.
"We know this approach will not be popular. ... And it will disrupt out current routines, curriculum and schedules until a new normal emerges," Vadella said.
Board Vice President Julie Mills questioned the breadth of cuts needed, with millions of dollars still available in the district reserve funds. But the depth of Spring Cove's deficits would rapidly exhaust that savings without massive budget cuts, others noted.
The number of administrators needed to run Spring Cove isn't what it was in past generations, Vadella said.
"I think people need to look at the number of students we had five years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago," he said. The student body was one-third larger a generation ago, he noted.
"We have to take those things into consideration across the board," Vadella said. "We're going to have to make some tough decisions."

Lindsay Lohan and Brody Jenner avoided being photographed together Friday night as the two hit night clubs in New York, but while inside they got pretty cozy, sources tell PEOPLE.
The pair were spotted "all over each other" at Beatrice Inn. They stayed about 30 minutes and then headed to another celebrity hot spot, The Box, along with buddy Frankie Delgado. Reportedly, they both lingered until 3:30 a.m.
"She likes him. It's early, but they are more than friends," a source says of Lohan. "He seems to like her back. They're actually sweet together, it would be nice if she kept him around."
On the other hand, Brody recently told PEOPLE that his "new girlfriend" Cora Skinner had "met the parents" and "She's part of the family."
It's getting hard to keep up!
A rep for Jenner did not return calls for comment.

When a woman has such a severe hangover her makeup runs off — giving the appearance of a waxy face
Claire and Emma were in the midst of a severe hangover. It was so severe in fact that they both had waxy face and felt really ugly — they couldn't wait to get home and get the wet wipes out.

What is NO2 Extreme?
Endothelial cells can be found on the inner surface of blood vessels and are responsible for the reaction that produces nitric oxide from L-Arginine. Once produced nitric oxide can diffuse into the nearby vascular smooth muscle, promoting relaxation and subsequently vasodilation. This allows for increased blood flow which can be beneficial when training, since your blood transports oxygen and nutrients.
L-Arginine is not produced endogenously, and so must be consumed via diet. NO2 Extreme combines Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AAKG) with Arginine Ethyl-Ester HCL (AEE) along with Alpha-Ketoglutarate (OAKG). This product also contains niacin. Our NO2 Extreme is a revolutionary approach to amino acid based NO promotion.
NO2 Extreme Benefits
NO2 Extreme provides an excellent source of L-arginine and is conveniently dosed in capsules for your ease of use. Furthermore, our recommended use directions provide 4.5mg of niacin daily which contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Who is NO2 Extreme suitable for?
NO2 Extreme is recommended to anyone looking to get the most out of their training regime and particularly to those doing high-intensity strength workouts. This product may also be suitable looking to increase their dietary intake of L-Arginine.
Please note that the labelling on this product is provided in English as a minimum. French, Italian, German, Spanish, Danish, Swedish and Finnish may also be present on a product by product basis.
Consume 3 capsules daily. For optimal results consume around 30 minutes before exercise.
Do not exceed the stated recommended daily dose. This product should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet. Keep in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight. Not suitable for vegetarians. Store out of the reach of young children.

Quality product, delivers a half decent pump for a short while after taking a capsule. What people seem to forget is that this is a pump enhancer - if you're not at the gym, you're not going to swell up have veins busting out of your skin, but you will get a pump. Also, if you're not already lean and reasonably vascular, you're not going to suddenly become it from taking a pill; they enhance what is already there, and so visible results will be proportional to your BF% and so on. In terms of recovery time reduction, I would say that these are worth getting as they help nutrients get around your body faster. Whether this is a placebo effect or not I'm not sure, but even if you get them just for the middle of the day pump then they're worth it. I took a capsule before bed with 3 Zinc and Magnesium capsules and I woke up feeling refreshed and with barely any DOMS.Goes Well With:Black coffee pre-workout, MyProtein Zinc and Magnesium before bed, a rest day
I love myprotein. I use and recommend their products to my clients. Unfortunately, I don't love these pills. I was looking for something to help with the pump as pumped muscles grow and as you all know tis currently the season to make gains. From the first workout I took these I felt very nauseous, to the point where I had to stop my set (and this wasn't even leg day), I thought it could be any number of factors maybe, not my new amazing pump enhancing pills... The next day was the same story, then the day after that too. After 6 days I took a few days off and low and behold no nausea! What's going on here! I'm a PT i have diet and training etc in check so I can't think of another potential culprit for the nausea. Goes Well With:Pulling a sick day at work if you ever feel like knocking off early. Maybe next Friday so you can go see the force awakens?
This product is incredible and does exactly what it stated! Over the course of the past few weeks of using this product, my body has began to change and become more vascular. This product really increases the effectiveness of a pump and allows the individual using it to go one step further and achieve a greater more appealing physique as well as increasing the workout potential of the user.Goes Well With:Pre workout or a pre gym supplement
Bit early to tell but it feels like it is working. I feel more vascular and also feel that I can do cardio for longer. I recommend giving it a try!
Take before gym; no point taking them 3 times in a day so just take 3-6 roughly 30mins-1hr before u start training for a nice energy boost.. i was taking 6 but i always cut my supplements down so my body doesnt become reliant on taking them.. if u struggle with feeling tired then also get some desiccated liver + super vitamin b complex and ul be pumped up and ready
"AWESOME is all i can say i was pumping well, i was going very red but felt great and such a increased pump this is by far the best product i have ever used AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME"
"i thougt the pump i got was considerable but not amazing, however, i have terrible circulation but when i took this, i noticed that my hands were no longer purple, definatley affects circulation in a god way :P"
This product is fantastic in that it works to make me more vascular during workout.. However none if the ingredients seems to help me with my prolonged workouts (however neither am I affected by caffeine) overall this is a very good product and I'm sure its effective for many others.. Great product from MyP
At the start of taking this there was slightly noticeable effects but i been taking them now for while and it seems the effects fade away after sort of period of time. Definitely not the best pump product i have tried from myprotein there is definitely more effective ones on this site. At this stage there is slight pump but nothing major , atleast this is the way my body reacts to it some people might get different effects but for me this product isn't the greatest as expected.Goes Well With:creatine , bcaa
These pills make a noticeable difference to vascularity and give a very good pump, I wouldn't want to train without them. Goes Well With:Pre workout
Haven't really felt a massive pump as a few reviews have said they provide but I feel slightly more explosive and have improved my strength quite quickly over the past 3-4 weeks All together decent product but not as great a pump as I would have hoped Goes Well With:Water
These to me have been one of the best supplements I've ever had! Veins pop, muscles fill with blood and get an amazing pump! I took 3 before workout and myself I couldn't feel a difference so I take six before a workout take four 40 mins before and take 2 just before leaving to get to the gym and they last me right through the workout! Feel bigger everytime I go loving these!! If ur thinking of getting them just get them! You'll love it Goes Well With:Anything
I was recommended these by a friend, gave them a read up and decided to give them a try.. Did exactly what it said on the tin.. 3 half hour before training, although I now think taking them an hour works better for me. Trust me when I say they do exactly what they're meant to!! The pump off them are crazy!! They work a lot better if your more into high reps, not really as effective on lower reps and higher weights.. Easy to take as they're pretty much the same size as any other capsule i.e paracetamol or anything like that.. Obviously don't taste of anything either so can be taken with anything. Highly recommended !! Goes Well With:Anything
Very good to help out before training and no crash afterwards. Bonus
Very surprised by how effective. Tried it as soon as it was delivered; within 15min I felt an unbelievable need to lift. I take it just before I get to the gym and by the time I'm halfway through my warmup I feel a massive boost in energy coupled with pump that I only used to get with heavy lifting. Thank you my protein for giving me pump in a pillGoes Well With:Enthusiasm when you'r struggling to even stay awake
Been using for 2 week now ,been taking 3 tables b4 training with fresh orange ! feel stronger getting few more reps and muscle are getting a good pump and feeling harder . Would buy this product again
Been taking 4 before a workout and can feel a pretty good pump and look more vascular during workouts. I would recommend to anyone who's looking to gain a big pump and leaves the gym with solid musclesGoes Well With:Water, pre workout
Just finished my first pot of these. Loved taking them on workout days, especially on my hypertrophy days. After a couple of weeks taking them noticed more vascularity. Pumps felt stronger, especially in shoulders. Took a week off of training after a competition, and when I came back to the gym my shoulders pumped up just touching a barbell. As others have stated, visible results are based off of BF%, but I still felt they aided workouts a lot, and give that bit of an edge in terms of recovery, which is always a bonus. I'd always take these with caffeine tablets. The capsules themselves are really easy to swallow. I'd take 4 capsules at a time. Definitely getting another pot next payday.Goes Well With:Caffeine, Water
very pleased with this item, works just great.
I've used similar products in the past just for the fun of getting a great pump, so thought i'd give these a try. Unfortunately these did absolutely nothing for me.
Works well, gains a nice pump and results are visible!
Good product, I can feel a difference during my workout since taking these!
Great product Can't believe the pump you get!!!
For me I did not find this product helped me in the gym. I took 3, 30 minutes before workout with my pre workout shake. At the gym I felt it dos not give me the "pump" people were talking about and what I was looking for. However, I did notice myself being more alert and more focused, which could have (on a slight tangent) increased my input into the gym.
I've been using no2 extreme for a few months now and I get a great pump in the gym and it does prolonge the vascularity and pump I get. I've had great care comments from friends about the pump and vascularity I get from my workouts and it's down to these bad boys.Goes Well With:Water, a heavy session
Love the stuff would recommend!
Unbelievable product. Works straight away. Gives you that extra kick in the gym!
OK, Does give you increased energy but does not make you charged. This is with three tablets, anything less and it is hardly noticeable.Goes Well With:Something stronger.
"I have to say i have been using this for a while at the 3 doses of 3 tabs daily, one being just prior to workout as instructed. I cannot say it has given me much effectiveness regarding energy, focus or pump, but then from reading the others reviews, i have never gone over 3 tabls prior to training. I see alot of guys here have the same trouble as me, experiencing very little off the recommended dose so have upped it, so i will give this a try and report back. I am on legs tonight so i will do as one of the guys suggested and dose 20 minutes before and then again right before training, he seems to suggest this keeps the product kicking through out the entire session. I will report back with the results. :) BUT, great price and availabilioty MYPROTEIN...as always, keeps me coming back. :)"
"Recently ordered my second tub of these after being extremely satisfied with the first tub. They give me a great boost of energy and focus, and give muscles a massive pump making me feel big and tight after a workout. I would recommend these to people of any experience level."
"Best supplement ever! pumped in the gym, meant i was able to do more reps in a set and ultimately gain the muscle and strength! felt more awake and energetic aswell would recommend to everyone and anyone!"
"Great work MyProtein, just the smell makes you understand that it is a pure pharmaceutical grade product that being works excellent. Thank you MP for quality and prices!!!"
"AWESOME, i take 6-8 per sesh (3 a week) 4, 15mins before i leave for gym and 2-4 just before a work out, this gives you a great buzz from the first lot as u start and the 2nd lot kick in just as u start to get knackered and give u that extra boost!!! they make u very veiny aswell!"
Great product! Get you pumped which is great on a physiological level and boost your training due to psychological effects as you looked ripped!
"This Product I am afraid to say is not very good. Its just one of those hyped UP products! All it actually does is make you feel bloated and if your stressed you'll feel massive constantly and want to start a fight, it makes your lean tissue bigger looking and makes you feel massive but to tell the truth all it is just GAS filling your stomach with GAS! I don't recommend it for strength or anything like that! You won't be adding loads of reps to your bench with this either! BELIEVE ME I DO POWERLIFTING! and this does notbhing to strength! But well done My protein for supplying it cheaper then other places ;) thats exactly why we buy from you! Keep up the good service!"
This is the nuts when mixed with the above supplements added 20kg instantly to my squat and bench ace product.
"i have never reviewed a product on any website. however being a myprotein regular i thought i should congratulate them on a f*****g amazing product. you dont need an explanation, just buy it... you wont regret it. mad pumps in the gym literally mad"
Excellent product. But anybody using this should supplement NAC to counter nitrosative stress which can harm the immune system after a certain time! This really is important!
i was going to write a stinking review on how this doesnt work but upped the dosage to 'advanced' user dosage and i must admit i got an extremely good pump and stayed swolen and tight all day.good stuff.thanks mp
didnt do much for me - cant win them all
awesome combined with bsn no explode fires up my volume training 2hr workout in 1hr!!!!\nboosts confidence and an amazing pump makes my biceps bulge out when working on the door
"Works well, enjoyed the pump effects, taken with CEE and i found i could work harder and would need less time to rest between sets."
This is an excellent product which i will be using from now on. Gave superb pumps and energy.
"for some reason i didnt feel anything when i started this product but i stuck with it, i take b4 and after training, some people feel a rush during training but myself my effects are after training, seem fuller, more pumped, actual visible effects"
"Im amazed at the price of this! I been lookin everywhere it an it is expensive else where, So i give t a 5 star jus for the price alone! i will give a product review once i recieved my order.. \n"
"Great pumps with 4 caps half an hour before a workout, you must take this before food tho as it takes too long to work if you have to digest a meal (take with a protein shake).\nI had a great arm workout on this, huge pumps for the next hour after the workout, my triceps looked swolen and tight, use this with CEE and your well away!!"
"Ive only just started taking this today,i took two this morning and two before the gym...This week ive been really acheing,but,having this stuff accompanied by CEE i felt the effects instantly, it gave me the extra power i needed.I have taken similar products in the past and would say that Myprotien has done good with this one,not only a good price but a good quality product."
"GOOD VALUE, HELPS ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN PUMPS, HELPS METABLOLSE YOUR PROTEIN.\n\n"
"Personally, I found I had to take the maximum recommended 3 caps 3 times a day to even begin to notice (mediocre) pumps. But as we can see from scanning the array of reviews, the majority seem to have received good results from using this supplement. So, one might deduct that it's effectiveness is based on individual response, rather than a simple case of it either working well or not working. My advice would be to go ahead and try it if the intended purpose (Pumps etc.) appeals to you, and simply asses your individual response."
Just coming to the end of first 180 and have experienced a good pump expecially doing chest and arms with this gear.

Growing up Buddhist, I wanted to pursue a career that would allow me to better understand my own religious heritage, as well as contribute academically to the growing body of research on contemporary Japanese religion. We are moving into an exciting time for Buddhist Studies as more attention is being given to ritual, popular religion, folk and oral tradition, as well as visual and material culture. Ultimately I would like to bring a deeper awareness and understanding of Buddhism to American universities, moving beyond the sweeping generalizations and surface readings that we sometimes encounter with imported religions.

How well does the GTU prepare doctoral students to teach? And how can we do a better job? Those were the questions that we asked ten alums from five years ago who recently came back to Berkeley for a consultation sponsored by the Wabash Center for Teaching and Learning in Theology and Religion as part of their Graduate Programs Teaching Initiative.
March 30, 2011 - Uriah Y. Kim (Ph.D. '04), Professor of Hebrew Bible at Hartford Seminary, has received a prestigious 2011-2012 Lilly Theological Research Grant for his new book, The Politics of Othering in the Book of Judges.
March 30, 2011 - Kristin Johnston Largen (Ph.D. '02), Associate Professor of Systematic Theology, Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg (PA), has received a prestigious 2011-2012 Lilly Theological Research Grant for Seeking God among our Neighbors: Toward an Interfaith Systematic Theology.

Three years ago, a spiritual director asked Mistie Shaw (M.A. '04) where she wanted to go. Her answer was literal and unequivocal: China.
Growing up near Harlem, Laura Stivers (Ph.D. '00) frequently saw homeless people. There was much diversity in her grade school and many children from poor homes. When she was eight, her family moved to the state of Washington where she lived in a predominately white suburban neighborhood. The social and economic inequalities she observed as a child and her father's influence as a Christian ethicist, contributed, she says, to ethics and social justice becoming a focus of her teaching.

In Praise of Messy Lives by Katie Roiphe, The Dial Press, 265 pages, ($25). The critic's neologism describing her that Katie Roiphe likes is "uncomfortabilist. For some probably perverse reason, I am drawn to subjects or ways of looking at things that make people, and sometimes even me, uncomfortable."
Forget, for a second, her thoughts on date rape. Most famously, her "uncomfortabilism" led to an essay in the New York Times Book Review called "The Naked and the Conflicted" in which she allowed that oppressive patriarchal villainies of "The Great Male Novelists of the Past Century" (Roth, Mailer, Updike, Bellow) maintain a vitality amid feminist obloquy, whereas "characters in the fiction of the heirs apparent are often repelled or uncomfortable when faced with a sexual situation." Because she'd probably rather not write than avoid naming names, that means David Foster Wallace, Michael Chabon, Jeffrey Eugenides and Jonathan Franzen. "The same crusading feminist critics who objected to Mailer, Bellow, Roth and Updike might be tempted to take this new sensitivity as softness or indifference to sexual adventuring as a sign of progress … But the sexism in the work of the heirs apparent is simply wilier and shrewder and harder to smoke out." That's because their characters are "too cool for sex." So Roiphe asks "why don't we look at those older writers who want to defeat death with sex, with the same fondness as we do the inventors of the first failed airplanes, who stood on the tarmac with their unwieldy, impossible machines and looked up at the sky?"
In the realm of discomfort, consider "Making the Incest Scene" where she deadpans that in Jane Smiley's "A Thousand Acres," incest exists in the fictional "bargain basement." She asks "Is Maureen Dowd Necessary?" (you can guess her answer) and parties down at the expense of celebrity profiles. Hillary Clinton is called "Sister Frigidaire." Twitter, Facebook and the Internet are here, along with Joan Didion, Susan Sontag and "Mad Men" (which gave her a title). Anyone looking for lineage shouldn't stop at Mary McCarthy standing at the gender gate when, a few yards into history is George Orwell, who'd probably think this book just dandy.

7 Tips for Not Screwing Up College
#3. Take Up a Martial Art
Take up a martial art. Don't have any fantasies about utility. Experts can defend themselves, but the average martial arts student couldn't defend himself against harsh language. The point is exercise that isn't catastrophically boring. You'll want to start something physical now if you don't want your guts to collapse later, and treadmills are for rehabilitation, not people with working legs. Martial arts let you practice focus, discipline, meeting new people preselected for "actually doing things" and imagining that you're knocking out terrorists.
You don't get to do that in ultimate Frisbee. They ban you.
Freeing yourself from thoughts of actual combat allows you to enjoy some of the best physical training you can get, exercise that keeps you interested and offers constant motivation. You even get to pick your flavor. When the clubs at my university demonstrated, karate were kicking their way across a hall, Shaolin were calling out the summoning of Captain Planet en masse, BJJ were using real-life 40-hit combos and the Aikidoka were practicing how to fall over without hurting themselves. The choice was obvious. And while I still have the street-combat ability of a curbside sofa, unlike most martial arts students, I got real use out of my skill on nights out.
#2. Work Beyond the Course
College is practice for the real world. That's the entire point. If you just sit on your ass and scrape by with the bare minimum required to continue, that's what your life will be like. Courses aren't about memorizing raw data -- we have Google now -- they're about the ability to think and work and complete tasks. Anyone whining about professors not giving out the test questions is worse than missing the point.
"Professor, I'm planning on having my co-workers hand-deliver prechewed food to my mouth,
so when will you tell us exactly what's on the exam?"
Resources will never be so available to you. Libraries, tutorials, fellow students -- it's an informational bonus level specifically designed to make you the best at what you love. Use it. Follow up on things you're interested in. Study the hard parts to work out what's going on, because that only takes a few hours in relaxed October and means you're actually learning throughout the course, instead of saving up an agony of stress the week before the exam. Then do more, because the fact that your course exists means there are thousands of other people who merely passed. And by now they have experience, too. Write an essay on exactly why Othello would have beaten Hamlet in a fight, or prove thrust bearings wouldn't work in Voltron's ankles ... do anything as long as it practices your course material.
"And if you integrate over how much we could conceivably drink, you'll see that my chances of sleeping with you AREN'T imaginary."
You might think you're too busy, but remember how high school showed how easy elementary was? And how the high school workload looks light compared to college? That process hasn't even nearly stopped. It's going to get significantly heavier every year, until you get a job, at which point you'll actually know what work is. Right now you have absolute control of how you spend your time. It's your choice whether you even turn up! The sooner you start glorying in how much time that is, and getting ahead of the curve by using it, the happier you'll be for the rest of your life.
#1. It's Not About Getting a Degree, It's About Becoming a Person
College isn't about a piece of paper; it's about becoming someone who can be trusted not to fuck something up. You're saying you'll become competent at something. That is the upper limit of qualification, and a glorious ideal several billion people still fall short of. Third level education is the real world's tutorial mode: You're given clear objectives and access to all the resources you need. Later you might not have either.
"If only someone had told me that being able to do things would help!"
If even half of what you learn is in the classroom, you're not doing things right. College is also the ultimate self-discovery school, a Brownian personality-builder that bashes you off other people to help you all stop sucking. The most important part of education is learning who you are because no, shut up, you really don't know. Not a clue. And that's awesome! Imagine how terrible the world would be if every 17-year-old was actually right about what's important.
For one thing, the species would go extinct.
We've built a special facility where you can gain wisdom by making fun mistakes as quickly as possible, surrounded by people doing the exact same thing, often with you. And that's only a side effect of getting to choose what you want to do in life. Then getting better at it.

Wednesday, August 14, 2013
Dear Liz,
My boyfriend and I are planning to move in together and merge our families in the next month or two. We are in pre-marital counseling and consider ourselves engaged when we do move in. It is both a love thing and a practical thing. What do you recommend for the children who range from a first to a ninth grader, two girls and two boys? They are already planning the housewarming party and helping us select a home to share together. We are fortunate they feel that way, but what steps do we need to take to help this transition be as smooth as possible?
"A Moving Experience"
Dear "Moving,"
This is a huge step, as you acknowledge. It is great you are in pre-marital counseling already and urge you to continue that. Some counseling sessions for the children specifically about the adjustments of becoming a family would be extremely important. Make sure that counselor is highly experienced in blended families.
We need to make sure all children feel they have a voice, and each persons' individual needs are understood and respected. The key points to agree upon include:
1. Household rules and pre-determined consequences (and rewards) that are age-appropriate and fair.
2. Chore and contribution plans with consequences and rewards.
3. Conflict resolution guidelines.
4. Financial agreements on who pays for what and when including meeting the needs of the children.
5. Morning and night-time routine/schedule (especially on school nights.)
6. Curfews and communication guidelines.
7. Religious expression/church attendance.
8. Guidelines for visiting friends.
9. Creating a master calendar with each child and adults' schedule on it so everyone knows, in advance, who is going to be where, when.
10. Safety and emergency procedures, including fire drills.
11. Privacy rules and expectations.
You each have parented two children — four is a whole new experience and requires much more coordination, communication and humor. It may test your love and devotion to one another more than you expect.
Remember, that to your children, this is expected to be permanent. They will bond with each of you and the children. Solve each problem as they arise in a calm and fair way. Lean on your counseling and don't hesitate to reach out for a "tune up" with your counselor, long-term, to "nip any problem in the bud."
Best wishes to you all.
Dear Liz,
Thank you for your suggestion to have "school morning" drills with the whole family. It has turned into a blast in our family. We did as you recommended, setting the routine up, making sure everyone understood their role, then turned it into no-warning random drills.
Our kids are 6, 8 and 11 – and we are amazed at how quickly they have learned their routine and find it fun to be fast and efficient. They even came up with some suggestions for improvement.
Great idea. Now they can't wait for school to start so we can do it for real. Bravo. Love it.
Smart starters
Dear Smart,
Thank you for the feedback. Let me know the added things that work for you so we can pass it on. No more school morning blues.
Contact Liz via firstname.lastname@example.com. Liz Brisacher Sharp is a Master degree level Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice with 35 years experience in mental health.

Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
The FDA yesterday issued proposed rules or "draft guidance" designed to encourage drug developers to manufacture abuse-resistant opioid pain medicines.
"Guidance for Industry: Abuse-Deterrent Opioids—Evaluation and Labeling" will apply to biopharmas companies planning to launch new formulations of opioid products. It contains FDA's perspective on what studies drug makers should conduct to show the agency their medications are abuse-resistant, how those studies will be evaluated, and what labeling claims may be allowed based on study results.
FDA said drugmakers should present data from each of three categories of premarketing studies—in vitro manipulation and extraction studies, pharmacokinetic studies, and clinical abuse potential studies—as well as from postmarketing studies showing how a potentially abuse-deterrent formulation results in "a significant decrease in population-based and use-based estimates of abuse" compared to abuse estimates for non-abuse-deterrent formulations.
Labels of abuse-resistant opioid drugs, FDA continued, should describe the product's specific abuse- deterrent properties as well as specific routes of abuse the product is designed to deter. The agency promised to "take a flexible, adaptive approach" to evaluating and labeling treatments with the potential for opioid abuse.
"Our goal here is to encourage the development of abuse-deterrent formulations that work to reduce abuse in the real world. And the intent of the guidance is to find a way to incentivize that, and to encourage the development of that science," Douglas Throckmorton, M.D., deputy director for regulatory programs in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said yesterday during a conference call for reporters on the proposed regulations.
FDA opened a 60-day comment period for the draft guidance, with a public hearing to follow. The date of that hearing has yet to be set, Dr. Throckmorton said.
The draft guidance comes in response to a provision of the FDA Safety & Innovation Act (FDASIA) as well as requests from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). The agency said the proposed rules were part of a multi-agency response to pain drug abuse, which according to FDA resulted in about 15,600 deaths and nearly 425,000 emergency-room visits involving opioid medications.
"Abuse and misuse of these products is a serious and growing public health problem, and is a priority for the FDA," Dr. Throckmorton said.
FDA released the draft guidance about a month after guidance comes one month after an advisory committee voted against recommending agency approval of the Zogenix opioid drug candidate Zohydro, citing the drug's lack of abuse resistance, and resulting potential for abuse. But the Anesthetic and Analgesic Drug Products Advisory Committee balanced its decision by advising that FDA not make its decision until it adopts a rule requiring abuse resistance formulations of pain drugs. Zogenix has said it is developing an abuse-resistant version of Zohydro.
A few other drug developers are marketing abuse-resistant formulations of their pain drugs—including Purdue Pharma, maker of OxyContin (oxycodone), and Endo Pharmaceuticals, maker of Opana (oxymorphone). However, FDA-approved generic versions of Opana that lack tamper resistance were approved before the branded drug's June 2012 reintroduction with a crush-resistant formulation. Generic versions of Opana ER 7.5 mg and 15 mg are available from Actavis, which will join several companies expected to launch additional generic versions in 2013 including Impax, Sandoz, Teva, Watson, Roxane, and Ranbaxy.
Questioned why FDA is asking branded-drug makers to switch to abuse-resistant formulations and not makers of generic Opana or other generic drugs, Dr. Throckmorton said he could not comment on agency conversations with the generic developers involved.
While the draft guidance does not apply to generic drugmakers, FDA says it is evaluating several citizen petitions requesting action on abuse resistance in generic drugs. "What we do about the generics is something we have not yet determined," Dr. Throckmorton added.

PEOPLE.com readers aren't so quick to forgive and forget, it seems, given their reaction to the remarriage of Sandra Bullock's ex, Jesse James, though they were quick to warm up to how Jonathan Taylor Thomas has conducted his life since his Home Improvement days.

TV star Jonathan Taylor Thomas had fame and fortune starting when he was 8, and now that he's 31, he doesn't miss them – a trait readers strongly admired.
The wedding of custom motorcycle-builder Jesse James and drag racer Alexis DeJoria ticked off readers. Could it be because: 1. This was his fourth marriage? 2. He broke off his engagement to Kat von D? 3. Or how he treated Sandra Bullock?
Grief accompanied news of the loss of one of Twilight star Ashley's Greene's two fox terriers in a fire that swept through her West Hollywood condo.
Kim Kardashian elicited loud chuckles when she wisely ditched her signature high heels in favor of flats more suitable to a pregnant woman.

Be a part of IYV+10
14 June 2011
A related event took place in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, on 30 April 2011. The local volunteer network association 'Honduras Voluntaria' invited its member organizations to contribute to the 'Illustrating Volunteerism book.
One of them, 'Solidaridad, Honduras' (SOLI) helped children benefitting from their 'Centro Nutricional Solidario' programme to express their perceptions of the SOLI volunteers. The children used their creativity to put on paper the distinctive activities SOLI volunteers undertake with them.
Over the coming weeks, similar events will be repeated by other member organizations of 'Honduras Voluntaria'.
To find out more about the event in Honduras, refer to the article (in Spanish). If you would like to contribute to the 'Illustrating Volunteerism' project, please download the information flyers below for details.

WV DEP and their "watershed" durge is one of the biggest farces in agencies, and misuse of state funds & paychecks we have.They ALLOW, (along with county planning commissions)permitting of all problems we have with water quality contamination in our state. So long as they do a little 'face value work" to ward off "The feds". They represent "Industry", will not enforce any laws,same for DNR, so we basically have two worthless agencies on the state payrolls here. As far as "trout" are concerned for water quality indicators; Rainbows are nothing but hybrids. Can swim in solid crap water so long as it's cold and they have plenty to eat and places to hide- true trout for water quality indicators are the brookies and browns..which are/were native. As far as heavy metals are concerned in beverages; you can't "ferment out" heavy metals, (that will kill off your liver & kidneys faster) Chlorine leads to bladder and kidney cancer, i

something very wrong with that staement...Rocky Marsh is stocked heavily with trout by the DNR.One agency says it's polluted,another says it's clean enough to supply fish to be harvested and eaten. DEP: a good agency thats' gone out of control.

We love hearing your passionate responses to PEOPLE.com news through article emoticomments and readers didn't disappoint this week.
You loved Kate's pregnancy news, were wowed by Anderson Cooper's bout with blindness and were disheartened by the tragic murder-suicide of Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher.
Keep sounding off by clicking at the bottom of every article, and let us know what makes you happy, sad, or just plain laugh out loud.
You were filled with love for the Duchess of Cambridge, who is carrying a new royal. You also adored attentive dad-to-be Prince William, who was at Kate's side while she was being treated for severe morning sickness.
You were devastated to hear about Kansas City Chiefs player Jovan Belcher, who killed his girlfriend, Kasandra M. Perkins, and then shot and killed himself in front of his coach and general manager. The couple had a 3-month-old daughter.
Ouch! Anderson Cooper's painful temporary blindness after burning his retinas while on assignment had you saying, "Wow!" His mishap comes with a lesson, though: Don't forget to wear your sunglasses.
Demi Moore made you giggle again this week, but this time it was because of her dance moves. "Demi was wild and crazy and having the time of her life" at a party at Alex Rodriguez's Miami home, a source told PEOPLE. Moore is in town for Art Basel where the scene is buzzing about whether she is or isn't dating 26-year old art dealer Vito Schnabel.
You weren't as happy as Peter Facinelli about his budding romance with Nurse Jackie costar Jaimie Alexander. Facinelli's split with Jennie Garth might be on your minds. But rest assured, even though the split hasn't been easy, Garth herself says she's "happy that he is happy."

The Stetson University men's golf team will return to the course this week when the Hatters head to Lake Worth to participate in the Spring Break Championship, hosted by Florida Atlantic University.
The event, being held at The Fountains Country Club, will feature Stetson playing the likes of Bethune-Cookman, Florida Gulf Coast and the University of Central Florida among the field of 16 teams. The teams will play a total of 54 holes over three days.
Other teams in the tournament include Connecticut, DePaul, Hartford, Jacksonville State, Lafayette, Loyola, McNeese State, Miami of Ohio, Morehead State, Murray State and Northern Illinois in addition to the host team from Florida Atlantic.
The Hatters participating in the tournament include freshmen Dustin Dingus (Palm Harbor, Fla.), Andrew Peterson (Andover, Minn.), Michael Primavera (Naples, Fla.), and Brian Kehoe (Katonah, NY) along with junior Tyler White (Palm Harbor, Fla.).
Head coach Bob Weickel is looking for a better performance from the Hatters than their last time out.
"I'd like for them to do very well," Weickel said. "They've had some good scores individually in various tournaments and, if they could do it all at the same time, then they could contend. It's a very difficult field and they have to play well because of that."
The tournament will start with split tee times at 8:30 a.m. on Friday. Play will continue through Sunday. Live scoring for the event will be available on golfstat.com.
