When the Cat's Away, the Mice Will Eat Innuendo-Laced Girly-FoodMr Lady
My husband left this week to spend a few weeks at rehab, and that has absolutely no bearing on this post at all, except that it means I can cook whatever the hell I want now. I can also see whomever I choose. I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant, but I am never, ever shaving my head bald, so don't ask.
My husband really doesn't like eating fish tacos, which explains a lot about the state of my marriage right now. Also, his cholesterol levels.
Naturally, now that he's in another country for the next few weeks, I am going to eat all the fish tacos I can get my hands on while I can. When the cat's away, yo.
I make my fish tacos with tuna-safe dolphin. Please do not tell my children this.
So, all I do is grill or pan-fry mahi-mahi, and after it's done, I soak it in lime juice and sprinkle it with blackening seasoning. My personal favorite that'll-do blackening seasoning is Emeril's Original Essence. While not exactly officially blackening seasoning in the strictest sense of the word, it's freaking delicious and an excellent thing to keep laying around in the pantry. I use it in almost everything seafood, from these fish tacos to this shrimp scampi. (I just buy it in the spice aisle, but here's the recipe on Food Network.)
Then the fish goes into corn tortillas (I use two per taco, because they crumble) with shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, black beans, a little mild cheddar, and a lime wedge. Sometimes I throw some rice in the mix, especially if I'm making fish bowls instead of tacos.
And that's really it. What makes it interesting, however, it what goes on it. That little side bowl up there? Avocado salsa. Here's how you make it:
- Dice up three avocados, the large, chunky kind of dicing
- Also dice up 1 1/2 roma tomatoes, into slightly smaller than the avocado chunks
- Throw those in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper
- Drizzle that whole mess with just a leeeeettle oil, and a smidgeon of honey
- Little-kid-friendly: Toss in one totally insanely crazy-minced de-seeded serrano pepper
- Big-kid-friendly: Toss in 1 1/2-2 totally insanely crazy-minced serrano peppers, with the seeds
- Drown it in lime juice (well, maybe just waterboard it; you get the idea)
- Stir
- Chill
- Die from delicious
You can toss that on top of fish tacos, or serve it with chips at a party, or live on it for a week straight because, oh, your husband, like, went to rehab and you keep forgetting to cook yourself food or something.

Salt and pepper grinder by Menu
With Bottle Menu presents a salt and pepper grinder that fascinates and makes curious. Beside the visual qualities, while the development of the grinder, the practical performance is the focus. The Bottle grinder possesses a powerful ceramic grinder and a form that reminds of a water bottle.
Powerful grinder
The design of the aesthetic salt and pepper grinders was coined by Norm. Bottle initially impresses with its strength because of its size and intensity. The upside-down design ensures that salt and pepper only scatter when you mill. If the grinder stands, so that the opening is upside, no traces will remain.
As material for the Bottle grinder, the Norm and Menu designers chose ABS synthetics with a rubber layer. The grinder includes a lasting, strong ceramic grinder.
The salt and pepper grinders are available in three Scandinavian natural colours and with wooden or steel lids.Also in our blog:

• Former Ball State teammate Jauwan Scaife set the school record for 3-pointers last year, finishing his career with 203 treys.
Replacing Scaife
• One of Ball State's biggest challenges this season will be to replace the scoring punch of Jauwan Scaife, who completed his career last year 14th on Ball State's all-time scoring list.
• An All-MAC Second Team selection, Scaife ranked second in the league during MAC play last year with 19.9 points per game.
• Also gone from last year's team are center Zach Fields, who graduated after starting 21 games, and guard Marcus Posley, who transferred after averaging 6.5 points and 2.9 assists per game.
Last Year versus Butler

Apple claims Samsung knew its Galaxy line took its design cues from Apple and was warned by Google
0. phoneArena 25 Jul 2012, 19:08 posted on
An unredacted (no blacked out spots) copy of Apple's trial brief shows that when the Apple v. Samsung patent battle goes to trial next week, the Cupertino based tech firm will claim that Samsung knew that its designs copied those belonging to the Apple iPhone and Apple iPad...

That's because Apple is born to be a patent trolls :D
28. sammy_saw (Posts: 28; Member since: 07 Jan 2012)
And come to think of it the o2 smartphone come out way before apple has some model design of the rectangular shape and round edge too , so I think it's not right that apple to claim the design is belong to them . What you think about this guy?

iPhone was announced BEFORE the prada came out. Prada is irrelevant because it wasn't even close to an iPhone.
84. 50taco (banned) (Posts: 5; Member since: 26 Jul 2012)
So its irrelevant, because it only LOOKS like an iphone but doesnt function like one huh? Im sure you will say the same about the samsung F700, but the bottom line my evil twin is that the lawsuits against samsung are based in...GASP! Design cues! Rectangle w rounded corners/ touchscreen/ a homescreen button. Yeap its irrelevant if it was made before apple made it gotcha.
20. tiara6918 (Posts: 2036; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
Once again, apple will continue suing the top manufacturers who they think copied their design while those other smartphones from the "not so popular manufacturers" that completely resemble the iPhone/iPad would not be sued. Apple, you're just bashing samsung because you're already starting to loose in the competition...
29. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
Because two rectangular phones with rounded edges are the same phone. The SIII looks nothing like the 4S

I know they are talking about the Galaxy S, but I'm talking about modern phones, not 2 year-old ones. Idk why they are bringing something up that's so old. The Galaxy S didn't look the the iPhone at all.

Now it's getting dirty. I mean, i's never been a clean fight, really, but now the gloves have come off and it's beyond repair. It won't stop until one of these companies is done for...and I'm sure you know which one I would be rooting for. :p
Seriously, though, this does nothing to help the evolution of technology. We've come so far, and now we're stuck because one company doesn't like how the other company does their business. We're doomed.
33. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
I can see it with the original Galaxy S. However, the successive designs of the S2 and S3 have diverged further and further from the IPhone design. All that's left are thing like S Voice. Therefore, a phone like the Nexus, which is so distinguishable from the iPhone it isn't even funny, shouldn't even have a case against it.
70. Mxyzptlk (Posts: 13068; Member since: 21 Apr 2012)
The problem is that they shouldn't have copied its design in the first place. I don't think they deserve having some slack cut from them. Businesses are out to make money and protect their property. Hating Apple isn't going to change that because that will hold true for any business.
34. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
ok.. all this tit-for-tat back n forth is pretty funny stuff. I'm just immagining 2 cartoon 3 year olds flinging mud back n forth screaming "mommy, he's throwing mud at me for no reasons" even though they are both covered in it.
That aside.
How could Samsung "intend to free-ride on the iPhone's and iPad's extraordinary success" when they've proven that their designs were out before the iphone's launch.. and thus had NO IDEA if it was going to be successful or not.
OI.. time lines people.. time lines.

Actually it looks like Apple has evidence that Samsing purposely copied Apple. Maybe that's why Samsung is destroying evidence.
82. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
And samsung have evidence that they were going for rectangle design with 1 home button and large screen way before the iPhone was announced... End of the day let's just hope that this leads to stricter patent policy's cause at the moment the patent system is handing out patents to who ever got the money. Example the Google glasses thing I mean Microsoft, Apple, etc all have patents essentially describing the same thing which is ridiculous. Someone at the patent office is either not doing good there job in researching if there is any prior art or not.. As long as patent office remains like this we will always have e lawsuits on patents such as the shape of a phone or the shape of an icon.. The courts should be spending time on more serious stuffs than the shape of a icon etc. As long as apple and others have these patents have the right to use them regardless of what they are but some which have had prior arts should not have been given. One thing that boggles my mind is how apple thinks Samsung 3g parents which I consider real patents is worth less than a bounce effect patent.
88. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Apple doesn't have a patent on the shape of the phone.
Samsung is in trouble for their design because they clearly tried to make their phones and tablets replicas.
89. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
APPLE have a patent for rectangle with curves and the thinness of a tablet... Seriously how can you patent the thinness of a device.
90. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
Thankfully these lawsuits don't affect me Personally as I live in the UK where the courts don't hand out bans for things like shape etc
100. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
oh troll, like always you are misinformed. Apple has literally said in court that anything that is rectangle with rounded corners, a centrally located screen, and a center button is a clear violation of their intellectual property. There are examples of this design from before the iphone, and most recently from the Sony designs that floated around internally to SJ and Ives who then purposefully copied the whole thing... made mock ups.. and left the SONY label on it because it was like a 99% match for the original iphone. Yet at retail, it didnt say sony, it had a fruit on it.
What a big change. I guess thats why they think its THEIR design now. Because there is no Sony label on it anymore.
101. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
and here's a "what" moment for you. How can they take "cues from apple", if its proven apple completely ripped off Sony? A copy of a copy? If apple got a hold of those designs from Sony, who's to say that Samsung didnt as well? Since I dont see Sony SUING EVERYONE for likeness, I dont see how Apple has a case.
"we ripped it off fair and square, just like everything else we've done. Therefore its ours, we own it, and we are gonna sue!"
The only thing SJ and Ive are talented as.. as designers.. is finding other people's designs and ripping them off completely.
Iphone, Ipad, Ipod, and even the macbooks are all rip offs of other things. They may make some things like the Macbooks a little nicer, but the design is not original.
In the case of the iphone and ipod, they are 99% rip offs of the original design.

It's hard not to notice the similarities between them (aesthetically). Too bad it causes such a backlash onto Android because of it's openness.
54. Forsaken77 (Posts: 553; Member since: 09 Jun 2011)
I had the OG GS1, the Captivate from AT&T, and it doesn't look anything like the iPhone. The Captivate was the only model of the GS1 line that sported a different design from the other 3 by being more squared, aside of Sprints' version with the physical keyboard. Maybe AT&T requested that it not look so similar to the iPhone?
Regardless of Samsungs claims against Apple... Samsung thought it could mimmick Apples' iPad design so customers would think it was the same type of device. Samsung, you got caught with your hand in the cookie jar. Time to pay up. Stop trying to fight the fact because you're wasting more money and time, and looking stupid in the process.
Any non-bias person can blatantly see they copied. I'm an Android supporter myself, but thems the facts.
And in response to someone else saying that Apple is mad cause Samsung makes better phones... I wouldn't go that far. The phones have more and better features from Samsung, but they continue to use garbage parts and components. On the surface, the Galaxy phones blow the iPhone away. But Apples' phone is much better quality. They both have instances of very public failures, but overall, Samsungs' products are made like junk... from TV's to phones. I'm speaking from personal experience. I went through 5 GS1 Captivates under warranty, 2 GS2 Skyrockets (and it only came out in Dec 2011), and 2 high-end Samsung tv's that had screen issues.
57. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Drop tests have shown that the captivate, sgs2 were superior to iphones - not so much for the sgs3.
55. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Again, in America, where APPLE does the best, the Galaxy S phone - the CAPTIVATE - looks nothing like an iphone.
56. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Besides, how can a company patent the look of a phone, when over the years lots of phones have looked like lots of other phones?
63. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Wow once Apple presents evidence that Samsungs own design team admits to copying Apple, what will all the fandroids that said Samsung doesn't copy say then?
74. Mxyzptlk (Posts: 13068; Member since: 21 Apr 2012)
They'll backtrack and come up with every excuse in the books.
80. MeoCao (unregistered)
Actually if what Apple claim is true then we can say that SS did not copy Apple design. SS designer said : "regretably" and that means he did not expect that their design was similar to iPhone.
And SS F-700 indeed looked like iPhone but F-700 came out only 1 month after the iPhone so that clearly was not copying but simply coincidence. And Galaxy S design came from F-700 (minus the keyboard).
64. jopancy (Posts: 74; Member since: 25 Apr 2012)
If Apple was so innovative how come they just can't make another phone design that would make the whole world drop their jaws in amazement, thus making the earlier design redundant???
Apple should be flattered and give Samsung a big bear hug for coping their Iphone design because Samsung sees it as fantastic.
It's a great compliment from Samsung to Apple.
66. mukrenol (Posts: 90; Member since: 03 Sep 2011)
It's an interest to me the article did not say when google warn Samsung, meaning could Samsung made changes after the warning or did they stay the same?
83. Aeires (unregistered)
Google didn't have access to Samsung's R&D prototypes that clearly showed they were working on full screen phones prior to the iPhone. Apple can make whatever claim they want, it's not going to hold up if claimed parties had only limited knowledge of the overall big picture of what was being developed.

Samsung Galaxy S "looked like it copied the iPhone too much," and that "innovation is needed."..
ahaahahah.. innovation!!!!
there innovation is design not the specs and in its phone inside

Apple, your a piece of BULLsht. How does Samsung Galaxy S3 copies the iPhone, so does the S2? Bich please, Apple, stop being a child whining cuz you lose the game.

This pink felt cloche hat was worn with a Lanvin day-suit of pink marocain. The ensemble was a worn by the donor for her second wedding in 1929. She recalled that this hat was a 'copy of a French model, purchased at the same time as the dress, and is characteristic of what was very smart indeed at that time'.
The milliner, Miss Fox, was based in Hanover Square, London which had been a popular address for exclusive dress makers and milliners since the late 19th century. In the 1920s Paris was still very much the leading fashion city and it was not unusual for milliners and dress makers to copy Parisian models of clothing.

Magdalena Ujma-Gawlik (1967, Krakow), is an art critic and she investigates sexual identity in Polish art, feminist art, writing and painting methods in the so-called reflection era about art critique and the end of painting.
Nosadella.due invited Magdalena Ujma as part of Even identities, a research program about gender culture in Italian art, in order to favor relations between Italy and Poland with a view to a future information and cultural projects exchange. For this reason the curator has been introduced to current Italian situation through studio visits and meetings with artists and experts at the residence, as well as exhibitions in nearby galleries and museums.
Magdalena is a professor of History of Art at Catholic University in Lublin and she is also the chief-curator of the Planning Department at Bunkier Sztuki in Krakow. Since 1989 she published over 250 contemporary art essays and she currently writes for several art magazines and the quarterly «Kresy».

So far, the "most vulnerable" lists are skipping over her, as you can see here and here.
The basic reason was described by former Washington GOP Chairman Chris Vance, who pointed to Democratic Sen. Patty Murray's victory over Republican Dino Rossi this month after a hard-fought and expensive race.
"A lot of people will say if you couldn't beat Murray in a Republican wave, what makes you think you can beat Cantwell," Vance told McClatchy Newspaper's Les Blumenthal.
Vance noted that Attorney General Rob McKenna may be the state's strongest Republican right now, but that he's more likely to run for governor. And he doubted that any of the state's four GOP members of Congress would be likely to challenge her.
Of course, early predictions in politics are notoriously unreliable. Just a year ago, a lot of pundits thought Murray's reelection race would more closely resemble the cakewalk that Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., enjoyed this year. But it doesn't hurt Cantwell if Republicans are not lining up to run against her at this point.

Bipolar Disorder Health Center
Rapid Cycling in Bipolar Disorder
In this article
What Is Rapid in Cycling Bipolar Disorder?
Rapid cycling is a pattern of frequent, distinct episodes in bipolar disorder. In rapid cycling, a person with the disorder experiences four or more episodes of mania or depression in one year. It can occur at any point in the course of bipolar disorder, and can come and go over many years depending on how well the illness is treated; it is not necessarily a "permanent" or indefinite pattern of episodes.
Who Gets Rapid Cycling Bipolar Disorder?
Virtually anyone can develop bipolar disorder. About 2.5% of the U.S. population suffers from some form of bipolar disorder - nearly 6 million people. A rapid cycling pattern may occur in about 10% to 20% of people with the disorder. Women, and people with bipolar II disorder, are more likely to experience periods of rapid cycling.
Most people are in their late teens or early 20s when symptoms of bipolar disorder first start. Nearly everyone with bipolar disorder develops it before age 50. People with an immediate family member with bipolar disorder are at higher risk.
What Are the Features of Bipolar Disorder?
The major features of bipolar disorder include:
- At least 1 episode of mania or hypomania in the patient's lifetime
- Episodes of depression (major depressive disorder), which are often recurrent
Mania is a period of abnormally elevated mood and high energy, usually accompanied by erratic behavior lasting at least seven days at a time. Hypomania is an elevated mood not reaching full-blown mania a minimum of four days.
A few people with rapid cycling bipolar disorder alternate between periods of hypomania and major depressive disorder. Far more commonly, though, repeated and distinct episodes of depression dominate the picture. Repeated periods of depression are punctuated by infrequent, shorter periods of elevated or normal mood.
How Is Rapid Cycling Bipolar Disorder Identified?
Bipolar disorder is diagnosed after someone experiences a hypomanic or manic episode along with multiple additional episodes of either mania, hypomania or depression. Rapid cycling in itself is not a diagnosis, but rather a "course specifier" or descriptor of the course of illness. In bipolar disorder rapid cycling is identified when four or more distinct episodes of depression, mania, or hypomania occur during a one year period. Rapid cycling can occur at any time in the course of bipolar disorder and may come and go at varying points over a lifetime.

Cetacean Species Sighted in the Research Area
Significance of cetacean research in Indonesia
Indonesia Oceanic Cetacean Program
|The waters of Indonesia include numerous coastal and marine habitats, and are characterised by strong currents and complex bottom topography such as deep sea trenches, sea mounts and volcanic islands result in productive localised upwellings and an impressive array of rare marine life. Indonesia has exceptional tropical marine bio-diversity and recent coral reef and fish surveys have identified this region as the most bio-diverse marine area worldwide.
No detailed long-term studies have been done in these waters on cetacean species diversity, abundance and distribution. A review of cetaceans sighted in Indonesian waters lists 29 species. The occurrence of two species is still unconfirmed (Indonesia Cetacean Species List).
For marine mammals such as cetaceans, Indonesia is unique as the only low latitude region that is influenced by both the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Global and oceanic circulation exchanges are channelled through deep-sea trenches and deflected by oceanic islands, producing a complex and dynamic oceanic environment.
|APEX Environmental has been conducting a research program on oceanic cetaceans inhabiting the waters of Indonesia for numerous years. The Indonesia Oceanic Cetacean Program (IOCP) is associated with the Cetacean Society International, Dalhousie University-Biology Department, the Lembeh Strait Preservation Society and The Nature Conservancy - Indonesia Coastal and Marine Program, amongst others.
The IOCP is presently conducted in northern Sulawesi, the Sangihe-Talaud Archipelago, as well as Komodo National Park and World Heritage Area, located between the islands of Flores and Sumbawa (Map of Research Areas).
The benign, non-intrusive research techniques are based on passive acoustic tracking and telephotographic identifications of individual whales and dolphins. This allows us to conduct detailed ecological studies while minimising any adverse effects of our research presence.
|The IOCP consists of a multi-faceted research approach:
|The Program adds to the scant ecological data that currently exists for cetaceans inhabiting these remote waters. It provides species specific information for marine resources management and conservation programs on: Cetacean diversity, distribution and abundance, local movement patterns, population dynamics, feeding ecology, calving rates, social organisation, behaviours, fisheries interactions and environmental impacts.
This information on Indonesia's oceanic cetaceans will be used to identify sensitive marine areas (SMAs) and to earmark these areas for increased protection and management responses where necessary. SMAs are defined as essential habitats for oceanic cetaceans including preferred feeding areas, mating and calving grounds, as well as migration corridors such as inter-island passages.
The research also examines the magnitude of environmental impacts that threaten Indonesian cetaceans and works to identify realistic conservation measures to minimise these.
In addition, the program outreach activities include an active participation cetacean monitoring program for nature-based tourism operators, educational and environmental awareness seminars, media releases, and ocean conservation initiatives.
The research at sea includes non-intrusive techniques, such as photographic identifications of individual cetaceans and passive acoustic tracking. These techniques are designed to allow for close observations while causing minimal disturbance and to obtain data discretely.
To date the program has obtained detailed information on over 15 different kinds of oceanic cetaceans in these waters, including several rare and endangered species (Sulawesi and Komodo Cetacean Species Lists).
Indonesia Oceanic Cetacean Program Objectives
Sulawesi Sperm Whale Ecology
|The Sulawesi sperm whale data provide us with a case study to obtain important ecological insights into how this specialised, deep diving cetacean uses this complex oceanic habitat of trenches, sea mounts, steep rising volcanic islands and inter-oceanic exchange currents. Sperm whale movement patterns and habitat use are examined in relation to population dynamics, social organisation as well as indicators of feeding and mating success.
Since 1997, over 100 photographic identifications (IDs) of individual sperm whales have been made. The results to date have established that the waters of north Sulawesi are an important feeding and mating/nursing ground for a substantial resident population of adult females and immatures of both sexes. Large (14-18m) socially mature males, called bulls, are seasonal visitors to these tropical waters. Long-term studies relating to sperm whale ecology are conducted each year and findings published.

The Power of Hope (and of a little humour)
Harry McGee
There was a time when I couldn't get enough of Maureen Dowd in the New York Times but I have tired of the formula, and the over-cleverality, and the devices, and verbal pony tricks. I have switched loyalties to Paul Krugman (him of Erin go Broke fame) and Thomas Friedman in the same paper. Both are required reading, especially when it comes to the big issues like the economy, climate change, and the future of society.
There's a really good contribution from Friedman in this weeks NYT (read here) called Invent, Invent, Invent. The gist of his argument is that America should not, and cannot, spend its way out of a recession.
One of the key arguments is wonderfully laid out plain as always:
"We might be able to stimulate our way back to stability, but we can only invent our way back to prosperity. We need everyone at every level to get smarter."
Strangely, Brian Cowen was making the same argument during Leaders Questions this morning saying we can't just throw money at the problem because that's going to get us deeper into the morass.
We have had endless analysis. And enough dismal dirges to make keening at a wake sound upbeat. We need a bit of invention, of though and of deed. People have scoffed at the Spirit of ireland but at least it's trying to be bring positivity and energy. Much more of that is needed.
And we need a bit of humour too. In the run up to the elections Village magazine did a question and answer session with most of the sitting MEPs, north and south. The last question was 'tell us a joke'.
Most of them couldn't come up with anything. The po-faced dull as ditchwater MEPs were Liam Aylward; Colm Burke; Brian Crowley ("I'm more of a singer than a comedian and once sang with a hard rock band called Galaxy"); Bairbre de Brún ("I'm not really a joke sort of woman."); Proinsias de Rossa; Marian Harkin; Jim Higgins; Mary Lou McDonald; Mairead McGuinness; and Eoin Ryan.
The only two who gave a joke were Gay Mitchell and Kathy Sinnott.
Here they are…
Gay Mitchell: Two Irishmen, two Scottish, tow Welsh and two English men were lsot at sea. When finally they were discovered on a desert island, the Irishmen were fighting, the Scots had set up a distillery, the two Welsh had established a choir and the two Englishment were waiting to be introduced.
Kathy Sinnott: A man took his dot to the cinema to see War and Peace. The dog sat beside him and the audence was amazed to see the dog and his reactions to the film. When the heroine was facing dire straits the dog would howl and when thing were going well he'd bark and wag his tail.
After the film ended a woman came up and said: "Wow your dog's reactions were amazing!"
To which the man replied: "I know, I'm really surprised. He hated the book. "

Baby Got BackMost women wouldn't relish adding extra pounds to their booty, but Penelope Cruz was excited to try out the prosthetic bum she wears for her role in Pedro Almodovar's dramedy Volver. "It was great when we found it!" the petite actress told us at the Cannes Film Festival. "All the energy went down there and usually, because of my years of ballet training, it is up (by my shoulders). So it was strange for me at first." No word on what beau Matthew McConaughey thought of her enhanced posterior.

As the 2012 NFL season approaches, there are a handful of future Hall of Famers who should be thinking that this will be their last.
With NFL training camps beginning soon, these players will find it harder to get out of bed in the morning, survive two-a-days and get off the trainer's table in the evening.
These men have all had illustrious careers and shouldn't feel like they have anything more to prove on a football field.
The NFL now has a new bevy of talent that can carry the torch.
Thanks to these guys, the NFL is as popular as it's ever been. While the game won't be the same without them, the NFL will forever be better because of their presence.

America is culture sick with shallowness and pretense. Everyone thinks they need to look like royalty, everyone obsessed with money and things. If you reject that vapid state of the culture you get labeled a LOSER. As if desiring some substance in your life is a bad thing and born of jealousy of the pretty people. I can't wait for the real estate market to crash to bring some humility to this country. Don't think it will happen? In less than 20 years 90% of real estate will be worth less than when purchased and be rentals. The real estate craze is just a place for capital to appreciate in a dying industrial economy. It cannot be sustained.
They are predicting the bubble will burst, but will be a mild one, not like the internet of 5 years ago. It's going to be like back in the 80's, lots of property for sale, and no buyers. I guess we will see.
After reading your cheerful note, I may just hang myself now to get it over with.
Nice post...However, the sad part is that most of it is true... Yikes! So, history will hold true. All great empires come to an end (greeks, romans, etc...)

Metcel™ VMF is a selective herbicide used at low use rates to control noxious weeds, brush and problem broadleaves on non-crop and forestry sites with excellent grass tolerance.
Metcel™ VMF herbicide is a dispersible granule that is mixed in water and applied as a spray by ground or aerial application.
Metcel™VMF herbicide is registered for the control of annual and perennial weeds and unwanted woody plants on private, public and military lands, on rights-of-way, industrial sites, non-crop areas, ditchbanks of dry drainage ditches, certain types of unimproved turf grass, and conifer and hardwood plantations, including grazed areas on these sites. Do not use on irrigation ditches.
Metcel™VMF herbicide controls weeds and woody plants primarily by postemergent activity. Although Metcel™ VMF herbicide has preemergence activity, best results are generally obtained when Metcel™ VMF herbicide is applied to foliage after emergence or dormancy break. Generally, for the control of annual weeds, Metcel™ VMF herbicide provides the best results when applied to young, actively growing weeds. For the control of perennial weeds, applications made at the bud/bloom stage or while the target weeds are in the fall rosette stage may provide the best results. The use rate depends upon the weed species and size at the time of application.
The degree and duration of control may depend on the following:
Metcel™VMF herbicide may be applied on conifer and hardwood plantations, and non-crop sites that contain areas of temporary surface water caused by the collection of water between planting beds, in equipment ruts, or in other depressions created by management activities. It is permissible to treat intermittently flooded low lying sites, seasonally dry flood plains and transitional areas between upland and lowland sites when no water is present. It is also permissible to treat marshes, swamps and bogs after water has receded as well as seasonally dry flood deltas. DO NOT make applications to natural or man-made bodies of water such as lakes, reservoirs, ponds, streams and canals.
Low rates of Metcel™ VMF herbicide can kill or severely injure most crops. Following a Metcel™ VMF herbicide application, the use of spray equipment to apply other pesticides to crops on which Metcel™VMF herbicide is not registered may result in their damage. The most effective way to reduce this crop damage potential is to use dedicated mixing and application equipment.

Getting to know my dad, again
My 93-year-old father emerged as a different person when my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's five years ago. He became independent, assertive, interested and engaging. When my mother died in October, he even became a bit spiritual. He's certainly not the exhausted father with whom I grew up, who often didn't know what to say to me. As a teenager and young adult, I never thought we would have much of a relationship. But now, as I approach 60 and he nears 94, the engagement between us has blossomed, as it has with my brother and all our children. The relationship he now has with my wife has become his most significant. She handles his money.
At 93, my father takes almost no medication. He doesn't use a cane or a walker. And his mind rarely skips a beat. Until he was 88, my mother made just about every decision for them. All the family's relationships with him were tracked through her. I realize now we had almost no idea who he really was.
Last year, when the Steven Spielberg/Tom Hanks miniseries about the World War II battles in the Pacific was being shown on TV, my father came forward with stories we had never heard. During the segment on Guadalcanal, he excitedly said to us, "That's my regiment. Boy, they got that perfect. That's exactly what it was like." Then he recalled his fears hearing the Japanese soldiers talking above his head while he was hiding in a fox hole, seeing his friends' body parts being blown off and suffering more than 10 bouts of malaria. When the segment aired about the regiment being taken on furlough to Australia, he told us about the women greeting the soldiers at the boat and their nights out on the town after unrelenting months in the jungle.
When I watched the young soldiers each week, I tried to see my father as one of them, and through it I saw a whole different person. It is painful to accept that his entire generation is almost gone, including my father's four siblings, all his friends and his unit. He used to see his Army buddies at reunions, but that ended about seven years ago. He tells me often, "Everybody is dead."
One of the most difficult realizations is that there is no one alive who was a witness to his life before my generation. He no longer has anyone to gibe with, sharing the particular Yiddish expressions that he, his brothers, sisters and cousins grew up with, contorting into their own vernacular, and mimicking specific uncles' intonations that came from the Lithuanian shtetl. "Ahh, ich hawb a hejhek — I could give a sh__" and "Zhesh tu? —Take a look at that … you get it?"
True to his generation of Chicago soldiers, one of his favorite foods is still fried shrimp. I sometimes take him to Malibu Seafood, where I order salmon and he loads up on all the treif I stopped eating years ago. Once he said to me, "I'm going to take the leftovers back to the place, so they can heat them up in the microwave." The place is the Jewish Home in Reseda.
I said to him, "Dad, they're not going to heat up shrimp in a microwave at the Jewish Home."
"Sure they will, if I ask them to."
"No, Dad, they won't." And I threw the bag away.
Food has become one of his obsessions. He misses my mother's cooking terribly. Recently, my son opened a restaurant on La Cienega Boulevard. The style is shared, small plates, where many dishes make up a night's experience. After my father's first visit, he called the next day: "Listen, don't they serve a full meal at Micah's restaurant? How's he going to make any money?" And then he added, "I sure wish your mother had been alive to see this." On his next visit, Micah had put on his contemporary Middle Eastern menu an appetizer of "challah and Gramma's chopped liver." My father lit up with a huge smile … and ate it all.
He now often asks me about my work. I travel for business. Each time I tell him that I am leaving, he begins to rant and rave: "Again, you're going? Jesus … how many times can you get on a plane? You need to stay home once in a while." I realize he misses me. It's a strange feeling. When I was growing up, I think I could have disappeared for months and he would have never noticed.
Recently I began a blog, called 60DaysTil60, about the 60 days leading up to my 60th birthday. One of the posts was about my mother. Somehow, someone with a computer at the Jewish Home must have been forwarded what I wrote, and they mentioned it to my father. He called and asked where it was published. I attempted to explain a blog to him. That opened up a whole conversation about technology, the Internet, Twitter and Facebook. In the end he said to me, "But if it's not in a newspaper or a magazine, how can someone read it?" Try explaining that to a person turning 94.
The next time I saw him, he said something that really shook me. I told him I had a dream about my mother and that she was shuffling business cards when she said to me, "Gary, I just can't seem to reach anybody."
My father, always very rational, responded, "She's not really gone."
I took a deep breath. "Tell me."
"The other night, I was lying here on the bed. I heard her call out to me, 'Herbie?' It was just the way she always did. She was in this room."
I believe him.
My father doesn't ever like to be the center of attention. When I told him I was asked to write this article, he responded, "About me? What's there to say about me?" Everyone at the Jewish Home reads The Jewish Journal. As he said to me, "No one in this place ever stops talking. There are no secrets."
I hope he comes out of his room.
Happy Father's Day, Dad. I know you're reading this.

Robber suspect lynched in Jessore
A Correspondent Jessore: An alleged robber was killed in a lynch-mob attack at Nehalpur in Manirampur upazila early Monday. The deceased was identified as Touhidul Islam Touhid, 32, son of late Nazrul Islam of Masna village in the upazila. Mollah Khabir Ahmed, officer-in-charge of Manirampur Police Station, said a gang of robbers swooped on some workers while returning from a local factory in the wee small hours. Hearing screams of the workers, locals rushed out of their houses and managed to catch Touhid, believed to the ringleader of the gang, after a hot chase. Later, they gave him a good beating, leaving him dead on the spot. On information, police recovered the body and sent it to Jessore Medical College Hospital for autopsy, police said, adding that Touhid was wanted in several cases.

Yahoo! Distributing Malware
Two separate Internet security firms have reported that over the past several days, Yahoo's advertising servers have been distributing malware to visitors to Yahoo! properties, and other sites that have the Yahoo! ads being displayed. It is believed that the malware was put onto the advertising servers by malicious parties who found a way to hijack the ad network.
A blog post written by Fox IT, a respected security firm in the Netherlands, said, "Clients visiting yahoo.com received advertisements served by ads.yahoo.com. Some of the advertisements are malicious." It went on to say that the Yahoo servers send the users an exploit kit which, "exploits vulnerabilities in Java and installs a host of different malware."
At this point it is not clear whether Yahoo's advertising servers were hacked, or if an advertisement was written with the malware, and then submitted via the normal channels, and happened to make it past Yahoo's screening process.
According to the reports, visitors to Yahoo properties have been getting infected with this malware since at least December 30th. When it was discovered, Fox IT says it was delivering the exploit kit to around 300,000 users per hour. Due to anti-malware software and other factors, only about 9% of those 300,000 actually got infected by the malware. This is still 27,000 users per hour, which is a significant rate of infection.
The other security firm that confirmed the malware was Surfright, also based in the Netherlands. Surfright is a maker of anti-virus software.
A Yahoo spokeswoman said in an email to the Washington Post, "At Yahoo, we take the safety and privacy of our users seriously. We recently identified an ad designed to spread malware to some of our users. We immediately removed it and will continue to monitor and block any ads being used for this activity." Yahoo also confirmed that this attack did not affect users in North America, or anyone who used mobile devices or MAC computers.
The investigation is still undoubtedly ongoing by Yahoo's security team. Anyone who visits any Yahoo properties should run the anti-malware software of their choice to confirm they have not been infected.
2014-01-06 at 11:16
Ah, that's a clever hack! Now, I wonder how many other sites were also hit with malicious ads. I'm sure Yahoo is not the only site with such a vulnerability.
2014-03-03 at 06:30
So it seems we are not safe anywhere .. recently I was hit by some adware from YouTube then there was full of ads pop up and banner adds even on error pages and it took me several hours to clean up everything … it had installed software and extension for all browsers I used, since then I am very careful of ads on sites.

Traveled on the Breakaway the May 26 2013 sailing out of NY, getting on board was pretty painless our room was actually ready when we boarded around 12:30 the cabin however was a closet, we had an inside cabin on the 12th floor. The hallways are extremely narrow, cabin layout is confusing, when we entered the room I was very surprised to see how very tiny it was. There is not much storage space for clothing. The bathroom is a decent size but thats about it. The pool area is narrow felt clusterphobic to me, there is not a lot of seats in the sun if you want to be poolside especialy near the childrens pool, which oddly was right near the smoking area which I found awful.
The childrens pool is cute and the slides are impressive, some you need to be at least 100lbs to go on. The entertainment was excellent I loved the Cirque show and Rock of ages and burn the floor as far as cruise ship shows this one has exceptionally good ones! If you didnt get to the non pay restaurants by at least 5;30 there was a long wait. The food was okay, the dessert menu never changed for the whole 7 nights. Not the best food I have ever had on Norweigian. The layout of the shi p is lacking in my opinion, the casino was cramped hot and just oddly designed. The service of the staff was excellent. I was dissapointed there were not many meet and greets with the nickelodeon characters, I guess they want you to pay for Pajama Jam.
Some shopping areas directly at the port, a snorkel beach that is $5 to go on, we took a cab to Horseshoe bay it was very nice

Despite yesterday's heat, dozens of people flocked to see the "Virgin Mary tree" near the corner of 60th Street and Bergenline Avenue in West New York.
All afternoon, crowds surrounded the tree, which some say appears to carry an image of the Virgin Mary.
Since the image was first discovered in the tree last week, a large shrine of candles and flowers has grown around the tree.
The tree has been cordoned off by the town's police, along with a section of the street so passers-by can stop and view the tree.
A framed photo of the image, hanging from the tree, was a new addition to the display yesterday.
The image has touched off a worldwide craze, with outlets across the country and the world picking up the story of the "Virgin Mary tree." The media sensation has spurred a steady pilgrimage to the tree.
Maria Medina came from Hoboken yesterday to see the "Virgin Mary tree" for herself.
"I'm not really sure if it's actually her," said Medina, who's Catholic.
Since the vigil first started last week, West New York police have placed an officer at the tree round-the-clock to safeguard it and the people viewing it.
Police aren't the only 24-hour presence at the site. A group of volunteers has patrolled the shrine since last Tuesday.
Silvia Sinchi is one of those volunteers and was at the shrine yesterday.
"There are many of us who help keep up the shrine," she said. "Some of us work all day to take care of it."
Not everyone, though, is enthralled by the image.
Michael Oquendo, who was jogging by yesterday incensed some in the crowd when he shouted that the vigil was a form of "idolatry" and compared it to sins referenced in the Bible.
He ended his rant by shouting "may a lightning bolt strike that tree down," prompting cheers of "Amen!" from some in the crowd as well as angry comments.
Two older men began shouting at Oquendo in Spanish, and one of them grabbed his hand and tried to push him away from the scene.
An officer broke up the confrontation.
"I was simply preaching the word in the Bible," Oquendo said. "I respect other people's faith and their right to their beliefs, but this is a little crazy."
So far, there's been only one arrest at the site, and that was for disorderly conduct over the weekend, Police Director Michael Indri said.
An 18-year-old man began throwing things near the shrine and then became belligerent after an officer asked him to stop, Indri explained.
The 24/7 police presence at the site might not last much longer since the Police Department has had to pay officers overtime to staff the area, officials said.
"Once taxpayers get wind of it, that will probably stop," said town resident Mario Garcia.
Garcia also agreed with Oquendo's take on the vigil.
"I'm a hard-core Catholic, but I'm not going to pray to a tree," he said. "All of the trees have the same thing. It's just some discoloration."
And at least one local business owner isn't very happy about the tree's large following.
"Business has died since this started," said Moshe Ferrnando, owner of the T-Mobile store located directly behind the tree on Bergenline Avenue. "No one stops anymore . . . A priest already has said it's not a miracle, and yet it's the seventh day this has been going on."

The old-town area west of the Ramblas is known as El Raval (from the Arabic word for "suburb"). In medieval times, it was the site of hospitals, churches and monasteries, but by the twentieth century it had acquired a reputation as the city's main red-light district, known to all as the Barri Xinès – China Town. Even today in the backstreets around c/de Sant Pau and c/Nou de la Rambla are found pockets of sleaze, while a handful of old bars trade on their former reputations as bohemian hangouts. Over the last two decades, however, El Raval has changed markedly, particularly in the "upper Raval" around Barcelona's contemporary art museum, MACBA. Cutting-edge galleries, designer restaurants and fashionable bars are all part of the scene these days, although you'd hesitate to call El Raval gentrified, as it clearly still has its rough edges.

Anchoring the upper Raval is the huge, luminous Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, known as MACBA. Once inside, a series of swooping ramps from the ground floor to the fourth floor afford continuous views of the square below – usually full of careering skateboarders. The collection represents the main movements in contemporary art since 1945, mainly in Catalunya and Spain but with a good smattering of foreign artists as well. The pieces are shown in rotating exhibitions, so you may catch works by Joan Miró, Antoni Tàpies, Eduardo Chillida, Alexander Calder, Robert Rauschenberg or Paul Klee. Joan Brossa, leading light of the Catalan avant-garde "Dau al Set" group, has work here, too, as do contemporary Catalan conceptual and abstract artists.

Oscar-winning actor Dustin Hoffman stepped behind the camera for his directing debut with the British film Quartet about a group of retired opera singers. It opened in US theatres yesterday.
The film, which stars Billy Connolly, Pauline Collins and Tom Courtenay, tells the story of former members of a famous quartet who live in a retirement home for musicians. Old rivalries come to the surface when the fourth member, played by actress Maggie Smith, moves in.
Hoffman, 75, spoke about directing, opera and why it took him so long to venture behind the camera.
You tried to make your directorial debut on the 1978 crime drama Straight Time. What happened?
"I cast it, started shooting and was acting and directing. But we didn't have playback. I couldn't wait two days to see how I did, so I fired myself as a director and a friend of mine (Ulu Grosbard) took it over. It's one of the best films I've been in and one of the best acting jobs I've done, but (to fire myself from directing) was a mistake that I regret."
What do you regret about it?
"I should have kept at it. I should have done it because I probably would have continued to direct. But it just kind of spooked me and I hung up the directing hat. I over-doubted myself for some reason. It took a long time for me to come to terms with. I still don't have an easy answer. One has their demons and I guess that was one of mine."
And now you are a first-time director at the age of 75. What drew you to this project in particular?
"I liked the idea of people who were no longer in their prime, who were once at their peak of excellence. I learned that the writer of (the script) was inspired by a documentary called Tosca's Kiss about a home for retired opera singers and musicians in Milan. It was so poignant because they couldn't do what they had once done so brilliantly. Now they were in a retirement home and they refused to retire in a spiritual way — that got me."
Did you feel it paralleled or mirrored your own life in some way?
"Not specifically. So far, stamina hasn't left me. In fact, the proof of that is that directing takes a lot of stamina. But I jokingly say things like, 'Okay, I don't do nights. I don't do cold. I don't do wet. I've done all that.' I won't sit in a river of freezing water all night as I did in one film. And yet, if a script came along that had all of that and was a great part, I'm sure I would do it."
Did you know much about opera before taking on the subject in Quartet?
"No, I didn't, but one of my first roommates was Robert Duvall. We were both struggling actors for years in New York and we needed to get more roommates to pay the rent. He had a brother who was an aspiring opera singer who had a couple of friends who were opera singers. So all of a sudden there I am living with three opera singers. So I got to know them."
What did you learn about them?
"I remembered their instrument is so fragile and so problematic that they would actually call it in the third person, like, 'I woke up this morning and the voice is not very good today.' They are not like actors, who can fake it. You're either an opera singer or you're not. There are great ones, but there is no such thing as a bad one."
Having now officially made your directing debut, how do you feel?
"When you reach three-quarters of a century having lived, there's something offensive about it from a societal standpoint. 'It's over.' That's the attitude. I'm not sure the culture has caught up with the individuals who, as far as we're concerned, we are still in our second act. What's interesting is that the feeling doesn't limit itself to saying, 'Hey maybe I'll direct or maybe I'll run a marathon.' Everything opens up. Everything becomes not just a possibility, but a stone's throw from a reality."
You ventured into television for the first time with last year's HBO horse racing series Luck. It was cancelled after one season after it was reported that three horses died during production. Would you ever return to TV?
"They closed us down like a guillotine. The facts were so distorted that it frightened HBO into making that hasty decision. It really was a freak accident ... But I was so glad I had done it (television). And I would do it again."Reuters

Pope topic of talk at Erie Benedictine monastery
Erie Benedictines are inviting the public in to learn about the new pope.
"Pope Francis has taken the world by storm," Erie Benedictine Sister Stephanie Schmidt said.
She said he was a good topic for Mount St. Benedict Monastery's Enrichment Series. The free talk on the pope will be Monday at 7 p.m. at the monastery, 6101 East Lake Road. The Rev. Jim Piszker, chaplain and adjunct faculty member at Mercyhurst University, will present "The Emerging Ecclesiology of Pope Francis."
Schmidt said the former Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio seems to be in the media a lot since being selected to head the Roman Catholic Church in 2013.
"He's always surprising us with something new coming out of his mouth," she said.
At a panel on the pope at the 2013 Religion Newswriters Assocation conference, speakers described him as complex and not politically correct.
Pope Francis is "a Jesuit through and through," said Alejandro Bermúdez, director of the world's largest Catholic news agency in Spanish.
He edited "Pope Francis: Our Brother, Our Friend." The book has recollections about the man who became pope from 20 people including priests, a layman and a beggar.
"Jorge Mario Bergoglio is someone that has a really really complex personality," Bermúdez said.
Greg Burke, senior communications adviser with the Vatican's Secretariat of State, described Francis in 10 words: mercy, moxie, margins, prayer, encounter, joy, service, simplicity, humility and compassion.
Burke said the pope has the courage to shake things up, spends a lot of time in prayer, engages in dialogue, is close to people, lives a sober lifestyle and is focused on service rather than power.
"We are all going to get challenged by Pope Francis," Burke said.
Piszker said certain themes have been emerging in Francis' papacy, including poverty and joy.
The Erie priest said he'll speak about the pope's theology of the church from the perspective of the Second Vatican Council.
His offering in the Enrichment Series is open to anyone.
The series allows Mount St. Benedict to open its doors to people who may have never been in a monastery and offer them cultural and learning opportunities, Schmidt said.

This is a wish list for the version of Maple after whatever immediate next version is being developed.
It's about three-quarters of a year since Maple 16 came out, and if Maple follows its recent history of annual releases then development of new features of the very next release after 16 would be quite well along, and possibly even nearing completion. But that could mean that this is a good time to discuss wish lists for the version after that -- the version two releases after 16.
I'll start off with some items relating to Embedded Components:

KALAMAZOO, MI — The Gorilla Gourmet is going communal.
Noel Corwin, owner of the Gorilla Gourmet food truck, is launching the Kalamazoo Supper Club, which he calls a "seasonally focused community table event."
The first event is planned for 6 p.m. May 4 at Rupert's Brew House, 773 W. Michigan Ave. The beer-focused menu will include light appetizers and a three-course meal of a salad, entrée and dessert for $20. Drinks are extra.
"I've wanted to do a supper club in Kalamazoo for a while," Corwin said. "It's like a social club, a community event where people can break bread."
When Corwin had the Gorilla Gourmet truck set up on Bellevue Place, he had a communal table near the truck.
"It drew a cross-section of people who would sit there any given day. It was a meeting place for that block for sure. It would draw the neighbors out of their houses. It became a social place.
"I want to create that social experience and to connect people with their neighbors."
The effort is starting at Rupert's, where he hopes to have at least one more supper club there. He's also discussing holding the supper club — or pop-up restaurant — at other locations around town.
"Hopefully it develops into a symbiotic relationship with some of the restaurants," he said.
Corwin bought the truck in 2010 — the area's first food truck — and since then it's been a regular on the mobile food scene. His truck, which is known for its homemade soups and unique tacos is a favorite at the Kalamazoo Bank Street Farmers Market, at Bronson Park and near Bronson Methodist Hospital.
Corwin is Culinary Institute of America-trained pastry chef, who worked at numerous restaurants on the West and East Coasts before moving to Kalamazoo in 2010. His resume includes the White Elephant Hotel and the Wauwinet Relais-Chateaux in Nantucket, Maine, and the White Cask Restaurants and the El Encanto hotel in Santa Barbara, Calif.
Establishing the supper club would allow him to show off a fuller range of skills, Corwin said.
"People know the Gorilla Gourmet in one sense unless they've come to a wedding we've catered or the Zazio's chef's table or other higher end events where the do food with some finess," he said. "We're just opting to get out there and have some fun with food we don't normally do."
Reservations for the Kalamazoo Supper Club may be made by emailing email@example.com.

bloodorchid is always right
Hi all - this is my first post on the forum. I couldn't resist as a UK forum I go on has been discussing the same thing. Over here there has been a bit of a revolution in how bras are fitted. Some shops are still plodding along doing the measure, add 5 inches thing, but many independent retailers and a fantastic chain called Bravissimo are doing it differently. The old way results as in a bra that is far too loose around the ribs, providing not much support at all.
I walked into Bravissimo a few years ago wearing a 36D and came out with a 32F and looking slimmer and younger with my clothes fitting better. Before the 36D I wore a 34B for years and thought that all bras were desperately uncomfortable and worse than useless - it turned out that I was just wearing the wrong size. After Primal I'm a 28G. This doesn't mean that my boobs have got bigger, it's just the way the sizes work 32F = 30FF = 28G in cup size.
Here's a fine page of examples showing good and bad bra fitting.
Bra Guru's Better Bra Campaign: Bra Advertising
It is incredible that the ones lower down the page are actually used in advertising!
It looks as if US sizes are similar to the UK with a few differences. Maybe find your UK size using the technique below, then convert?
HTH someone!How to measure yourself:
Standing up - measure firmly under your bust in inches.
Then measure your overbust as shown in this diagram
Look here for sizing help: Fitting Advice
Testing the band and cup
To test the band size, put the bra on back to front on the loosest hooks. If you can breathe but if feels tight and you can only fit two fingers underneath the wire at the front, then that's the correct back size for you. If it's so tight it's unbearable then go up a size.
The cup will differ much more between brands and styles than the back. Put the bra round the correct way and pop the shoulder straps up, lean forward then take your right hand and put it inside your left cup. Reach right round under your armpit/towards your back and scoop all the backfat/escapage forward in to the cup of the bra. This may require vigour!
Repeat on the other side.
Then put the shoulder straps up and adjust as necessary (not too tight as it's the back that should be doing most of the supporting work). If after scooping you find that you have some bulging over the cup and four-boobage going on, this means you need to go up one or more cup sizes. Keep going up through the cup sizes until all your breast tissue is firmly in place. Once you have put your bra straps up you may well need to repeat the scooping described above but with the straps in place. Breast tissue goes surprisingly far round under the arms which most people don't realise so often their wires are actually sitting on breast tissue.
A good fitting bra…
If your bra is a good fit after doing this it should:
•Be worn on the loosest hook (when new). If you can fasten it on the tightest hook then try a back size lower.
•The band should be completely horizontal
•You should only be able to fit a couple of fingers under the front of the bra. If you can get more than that, or you can pull it more than an inch or so away from your body at the back, it is TOO BIG!
•If you raise your arms, the back should not really move - no riding up
•The wires should be entirely encasing your breast tissue - breast tissue goes surprisingly far back and a lot of people don't realise this. If you feel where the wire is sitting under your arm then it should be sitting on a fairly firm surface.
•The central gore (where the wires meet) should sit flat between your boobs. if it is being pushed away, then the cup is probably too small (and the back possibly too big as well)
•There should be absolutely no lumps over the top of the cup. Take a fitted t shirt with you to put over the top of the bra and stand side on to a mirror and watch as you breathe in. If you have a bit of a bulge only when you breathe in, you probably need to go up 1 cup. If it is visible when breathing out then it's probably more like two cups or more.
•The cup shouldn't gape. If it does, it may be too big or it may be the wrong shape of bra for you. Moulded cups are particularly bad for this as they don't adapt to your shape.
•The shoulder straps shouldn't be painful and digging in. Most of the support should come from the back. If you find that you can't get enough support without the straps being so short they hurt the bra isn't for you. Most likely it's too big in the back but it may also just be a bra that doesn't suit you.
•and on that note; not every brand works for every person. There are quite distinct differences in shape between brands which mean a particular brand may just not suit the shape of your breasts.

I started this thread two months ago now... still bra-free!
"I think the basic anti-aging diet is also the best diet for prevention and treatment of diabetes, scleroderma, and the various "connective tissue diseases." This would emphasize high protein, low unsaturated fats, low iron, and high antioxidant consumption, with a moderate or low starch consumption.
In practice, this means that a major part of the diet should be milk, cheese, eggs, shellfish, fruits and coconut oil, with vitamin E and salt as the safest supplements."
- Ray Peat
Very few stores in the US carry smaller sizes. Victoria's secret has maybe one 32B when I visit, so I eventually gave up. H&M is the only place that consistently stocks the smaller sizes, so I buy all my bras there now.
Thanks for posting this thread.
I wear one to work because the AC is too cold to go without one (what's she pointing at?) Plus, I'm 58 and it just seems more dignified to wear one at work and out in public, for me. However I prefer to go w/o at home, as does Mr Let Me See That. I recently read that it is ok to go w/o if you start out that way but for those of us that are "trained" to wear them it may not work out well. Maybe if we let the girls out more for short outings and then longer as time goes maybe it would be fine? Dunno.

Introspection is the order of the day for legal education and the legal profession. The economic stress of the last few years tore away at many of the traditional models of law practice and caused many to question the value of a legal education. The combination of rising tuition and a challenging employment market causes very bright, aspiring lawyers and judges to question whether law is a wise professional choice for them. The history of legal education and the legal profession provides powerful positive responses to these contemporary doubters. Rigorously educated legal professionals are problem-solvers, models of civil discourse, agents of orderly social change, articulators of policy, enforcers of procedural safeguards, and guardians of sacred inalienable rights. Law-trained professionals are, in short, the face of the rule of law that is the envy of much of the world. Recognizing all the challenges of this time in history, the central value of the importance of legal education cannot be diminished.
