State Dept. security chief resigns after Benghazi
WASHINGTON -- Three State Department officials resigned under pressure Wednesday, less than a day after a damning report blamed management failures for a lack of security at the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, where militants killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans on Sept. 11.
The resignations came as lawmakers expressed anger and frustration over the findings of an independent review panel, and the State Department struggled to find a balance between protecting its diplomats while allowing them to do their jobs.
Obama administration officials said those who had stepped down were Eric Boswell, the assistant secretary of state for diplomatic security; Charlene Lamb, the deputy assistant secretary responsible for embassy security; and Raymond Maxwell, the deputy assistant secretary of state who oversees the Maghreb nations of Libya, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco.
The department declined to comment on the resignation of the officials, whose decisions had been criticized in the unclassified version of the Accountability Review Board's report that was released late Tuesday.
The board had not determined that any officials "engaged in willful misconduct or knowingly ignored his or her responsibilities."

Pyjama dress
Emilio Pucci (1914-92)
About 1968
Printed silk jersey
Museum no. T.337-1997
This trouser-dress designed by Emilio Pucci in 1968 is typical of Italian fashion.Cut in a luxurious Italian-produced silk jersey, it displays the bright Mediterranean colours which have been Pucci's hallmark since the beginning of his career in the mid-1950s. The dress has a sleeveless bodice with a low-cut neckline. The bodice is cut under the bust and continues into a wide trouser-skirt.
Fashion at the end of the 1960s was characterised by the abandonment of short and rigid A-line mini-dresses in favour of long and svelte lines, and by the increasing presence of trousers in women's wardrobes. Long dresses and skirts were no longer restricted to evening wear but were increasingly part of daywear.

EL PASO – On June 12, Gov. Rick Perry arrived on the El Paso Campus of Texas Tech
University Health Sciences Center to attend a ceremonial signing for higher education
legislation and to celebrate the passage of the bill that will provide needed startup
funds for the full four-year El Paso School of Medicine.
In a statement issued by Texas Tech University System Chancellor Kent Hance, he said,
"Today, a dream comes true. Today, the perseverance, commitment and hard work of a
community is realized. Today, the future of healthcare changes dramatically. Today,
Governor Rick Perry signals the approval by the 80th Texas Legislature in funding the final components necessary for the Texas Tech University
Health Sciences Center at El Paso School of Medicine to become a fully operational
four-year medical school."
"Today, the future of El Paso's healthcare, economy and influence in the area of border
and international healthcare research changes dramatically," he added. "Countless
individuals worked diligently to ensure that this medical school has the most extraordinary
curriculum, the most competent administration and state-of-the-art facilities of its
Chancellor Hance concluded, "The Texas Tech University System is proud to become home
to the first four-year medical school on the United States-Mexico border. The impact
this will have on the future health of border residents here and beyond is immeasurable
and everlasting."
The El Paso School of Medicine has already received approval from the Liaison Committee
of Medical Education for a site visit in November.
The event was attended by hundreds, amid a party atmosphere of many congratulatory
remarks, mariachis, food and celebration.
Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center officials began the process of seeking
funding for the school in 1999 with an anticipated 10-year timeline. The Governor's
approval ensured that the 10-year projection is met. Perry officially signed the
budget on June 15 approving the medical school funding.

ABILENE – Meeting a growing need for physicians in West Texas, the Texas Tech University
Health Sciences Center Department of Family and Community Medicine has expanded to
the community of Abilene. TTUHSC officials, along with Abilene community members,
hosted a ribbon cutting and reception for the new Texas Tech Physicians of Abilene
on June 4.
Michael Ragain, M.D., Braddock Chairman of the Department of Family and Community
Medicine at TTUHSC, says the community of Abilene and TTUHSC have collaborated for
many years with a residency training program.
"This program's purpose is to train residents to enter practice in the rural region
around Abilene. Rural hospitals are closing and rural communities are losing physicians.
Traditionally the majority of graduates of programs go into practices within 60 miles
of where they train," Ragain said. "The doctors in the region around Abilene are aging
and if they are not replaced, there will be a crisis in rural communities. Texas Tech
Physicians of Abilene is an extension of providing quality healthcare to the community."
"Texas Tech Physicians of Abilene provides quality patient care and serves as a teaching
model for our Family Medicine residents. Patients are a partner in the extended training
of these physicians," said Ron Cook, D.O., residency director for the Department of
Family and Community Medicine.
Texas Tech Physicians of Abilene offers services such as urgent care, minor emergency
care, routine care, complete physical exams, well-woman exams, flu shots and other
immunizations, gynecological care, obstetrics and newborn care, pediatrics, mole removals,
vasectomies, colposcopies, EKGs, on-site laboratory, health evaluations and screenings,
geriatric assessments and care, and diabetes management.
"Abilene is a great community and Texas Tech is honored to be a part of this West
Texas area," said Ragain.

AMARILLO-The affiliation between the TTUHSC School of Pharmacy and the North Texas
VA Medical Center will be honored in July as the inaugural recipient of the American
Association of Colleges of Pharmacy Crystal APPLE Award at the AACP annual meeting
in Orlando.
The award was established to recognize innovative pharmacy school-affiliated partnerships
that foster excellence in pharmacy education and practice. TTUHSC-SOP faculty members
Craig Cox, Phram.D. and Shane Greene, Pharm. D., were key participants in the award
application process and worked with Cynthia Foslien-Nash, Pharm. D., who is the clinical
programs manager for the VA North Texas Health Care System.
"Our continued collaboration with the North Texas VAMC in practice and education is
a foundational relationship for Texas Tech's success in the DFW," said Arthur Nelson,
dean, School of Pharmacy. This award will bring national recognition to North Texas
VAMC and the SOP and speaks to the quality of our partnership."
At the same meeting AACP will also shine its spotlight on faculty members Cynthia
Raehl, Pharm.D., and Paul Lockman, Ph.D.
Raehl, who chairs the SOP's department of pharmacy practice will be installed as AACP
"As someone who has given their professional life to pharmaceutical education, the
opportunity to lead the organization that represents all U.S. colleges and schools
of pharmacy is very special," Raehl said.
Lockman, an assistant professor for the SOP's department of pharmaceutical sciences,
will receive an AACP National Teaching Innovation Award for his computerized competency-based
modular approach to teaching anatomy.
"This will be a very special AACP meeting for TTUHSC and the SOP," Nelson said. "We
are very proud of each of these individuals and their dedication to our program and
to the pharmacy profession."
LUBBOCK-"Ancora Imparo," an Italian phrase coined by Michelangelo meaning "I am still learning" was inscribed
on a medallion presented to Shirley Garrison June 1 at a ceremony honoring his 87th
birthday and the opening of the Help and Hope Library at the Garrison Institute on
The new library, which provides information and educational resources for those who
find themselves becoming caregivers for loved ones who suffer from age-related dementias,
bears a plaque with the same Italian phrase.
Several people spoke, including Chancellor Kent Hance, congratulating Garrison on
his birthday and thanking him for his dedicated support of the ongoing research conducted
by the center. Garrison expressed his gratitude to TTUHSC while recounting how he
and his late wife, Mildred, came to be associated with the university after her fight
with Alzheimer's disease.
"This celebration isn't so much about me," Garrison said. "I just try and hang on
until the next birthday anyway. This is about the library, so let's enjoy it."
Former Lady Raider's basketball coach Marsha Sharp, Chancellor Hance and Garrison
were among those who participated in cutting the ribbon to officially open to the
library. A barbecue lunch and birthday cake were served after the ceremony.
LUBBOCK--Community members of all ages learned how to get fit, prevent disease and
become healthier at Healthy Lubbock Day on June 9 at Maxey Park. Activities included
health care lectures, wall climbing, paddle boats, exercise demonstrations, health
screenings for all ages, prizes and much more. People discovered that having a healthy
lifestyle and being active could be fun.
"There was something for everyone," said Annette Boles, assistant director of the
Garrison Institute on Aging. "Information was available to learn how to stay active
through the summer and make healthy living a lifestyle."
Students from the School of Nursing stayed busy throughout the morning testing blood
glucose levels, cholesterol and blood pressure, not only providing a public service
to participants, but also offering educational interaction with patients.
About 45 vendors participated including the Susan G. Komen Foundation, University
Medical Center, Bodyworks and the Boy Scouts of America.
A program of the Garrison Institute on Aging, the Healthy Lubbock Initiative seeks
to make Lubbock and its surrounding communities a healthier place by supporting and
motivating people to become active through physical activity and improved nutrition.

LUBBOCK - The Great Recruiting and Community Explorations or GRACE project at Texas Tech University Health Services Center has been recognized by the
American Medical Student Association Foundation's Achieving Diversity in Dentistry
and Medicine or ADDM initiative. In recognition of their innovative approaches to
educating medical students about community service, public health and the need for
a more diverse workforce, the university was honored along with a program at the University
of California, San Francisco School of Medicine.
Yolanda Gonzaga, director for the Office of Diversity and Multicultural Affairs (ODMA),
developed GRACE as part of ODMA's community outreach programs in 2005. Sofia Tcheung,
former AMSA president, was instrumental in bringing GRACE to the community during
this academic year as part of AMSA's activities.
"I am very proud of this national award that brings due recognition to the efforts
of our students and to the dedication of our office in guiding the students throughout
this project," Gonzaga said.
Germán R. Núñez G., Ph.D., vice president for Diversity and Multicultural Affairs,
said the students gain important skills and knowledge about careers in health professions
in this new program.
"We believe that by connecting with these students in the sixth, seventh and eighth
grades, we can generate a new interest in health care fields that will benefit everyone.
Eventually there is potential to produce a more diverse workforce and create a new
generation of professionals who can fulfill the needs of our community," Núñez said.
Students interested in GRACE have the opportunity to participate in a community explorations
project and take field trips to TTUHSC. They also have the opportunity to speak to
medical students who share their experiences including the admissions process.
GRACE students learn how to take vital signs, check blood pressure and learn about
healthy lifestyles. "They are matched to medical students who will devote their time
to encourage and mentor these middle school-age students on their path toward interest
in health careers," Núñez said.
Bernhard T. Mittemeyer, M.D., interim president of TTUHSC, said this national recognition
is a significant accomplishment by itself, but more so given that the other honoree
is ranked among the top five medical schools in the nation.
"This is a tremendous honor for our university and especially for the Office of Diversity
and Multicultural Affairs," Mittemeyer said. "They have demonstrated outstanding leadership
and commitment to educating and mentoring middle school students who may otherwise
never have an opportunity to consider that they too can be a health care professional.
This national honor is well deserved."
Tcheung also received the Student Leadership Award and AMSA was the recipient of the
Program Award presented during the Third Annual ODMA Awards Banquet in April 2007.
Texas Tech University System Board of Regents Chairman J. Frank Miller died at his
Dallas home June 1. Gov. Rick Perry appointed Miller to the Board of Regents on Nov.
18, 2003. He was recently elected chair on May 11, 2007. He previously served as
vice chairman of the Board of Regents from January to May 2007.
Miller was chairman and chief executive officer and founding managing partner of JPI
Companies, a national multi-family residential development company. He had nearly
three decades of experience in the real estate industry.
Miller earned a bachelor's degree in business administration from Texas Tech University
in 1974. His wife Kay is also a 1974 graduate of Texas Tech. They have six children,
ages 13-25.
Texas Tech Chancellor Kent Hance issued a statement on behalf of the system: "Our
thoughts and prayers are with Frank's family. This is devastating news for all of
us in the Texas Tech family. Frank Miller was one of the best men I've ever known.
He loved God, his country, his family and Texas Tech. He had friends all over the
national and everyone had the utmost respect for Frank. He was a good and decent
man and will be missed by all."

LUBBOCK-The Diversity Leadership Council launched Diversity Day at TTUHSC on May 21,
2007 with a cultural display, A World of Diversity at our Doorstep and a panel discussion, Let's Talk about You and Me: The Many Faces of Diversity. Guest panelists included Michelle Crain, executive director of the LIFE/RUN Center;
County Commissioner, Ysidro Gutierrez, Gopal Coimbatore, research associate, Institute
of Environmental & Human Health and Nathan Sharon, third-year medical student.
Craig Stockton, SOM Office of Curriculum, served as facilitator. Yung Ng, Chair for
the Council gave opening remarks and said, "The purpose of this diverse panel discussion
was to show the many facets of diversity. Diversity is not just about race, but everything
that makes us different and unique, that which makes you you." Michelle Crain shared her experience of being disabled and defined diversity as
"allowing me to accept people for who they are and embracing who you are."
Please contact the Office of Diversity at 806.743.1522 for a viewing of this discussion.
If you think that "false positives" are an everyday event only on soap operas, then
you'll probably be surprised to learn that the term also refers to real-life situations
that recur almost as frequently as the inaccurate pregnancy tests of "Days of Our
Lives" or "All My Children."
Depending on which IT gurus you believe, for example, from three to twenty percent
of the billions of emails that are sent each day are mistakenly identified as spam
by anti-spam software. And members of the legal community, of course, frequently
wrestle with the potential miscarriage of justice when a verdict is rendered by a
jury (i.e., the chance that the innocent will be punished or the guilty will go free).
A little closer to home, many of us at the TTUHSC will be spending a good deal of
time this summer looking at our findings from the assessment data on our unit's operations
that we've collected over the past year and entered into WEAVE, the online data management
system. Are we going to blunder into false positives/negatives by seeing problems
that aren't there or failing to see successes that are there?
Assessment experts tell us that we can minimize the chance of errors in our assessments
if we use multiple measures for each facet of our operations. The more independent
evidence we can muster for identifying a success or an opportunity for improvement,
that is, the more likely we are to evaluate precisely and accurately.
If you'd like more information on false positives/negatives in assessment, please
visit the Office of Institutional Planning and Effectiveness website at http://www.ttuhsc.edu/admin/oipe or give us a call at (806) 743-2918. We're positive we can help you make a difference.

Tate's four works by Le Piper (see also Tate T00620, T00247 and T00248) entered the collection as separate pairs, in 1959 and 1963, although it seems likely that originally they all formed part of a set of twelve panels illustrating episodes from Samuel Butler's hugely popular satirical poem, Hudibras. For a general introduction to the series, see Hudibras's First Encounter with the Bear-Baiters (Tate T00620).
This scene is taken from Part 2, Canto 2. Having escaped the stocks, where they were deposited by Trulla and her companions (Rye Art Gallery), Hudibras and Ralpho are diverted by the advance of a skimmington, a mock procession celebrating a woman's dominance over her husband and his cuckoldry. Hudibras is outraged by the, in his view, heathenish, antichristian and lewd 'show of horns and petticoats'. He addresses the throng with a portentous speech, but is interrupted mid-flow by a hurled egg ('At that an egg let fly, Hit him directly o'er the eye, And running down his cheek, besmear'd, With orange tawny slime, his beard'). The scene shows the bombardment of Hudibras and Ralpho who cling to their horses' manes as they kick, a flaming cudgel having been shoved under the tail of Ralpho's. In the background on the right the husband and wife can be seen, 'Arm'd with a spindle and a distaff, / which, as he rode, she made him twist off'.

Car windows are designed to protect you in an accident. But they won't necessarily protect you from the sun.
Automotive glass must meet a host of government standards in the U.S. and elsewhere. It has to let in the maximum amount of light to help drivers see. It has to shatter into tiny pieces instead of shards that might hurt occupants in a crash.
But there are no requirements for sun protection. That can vary by vehicle, and even by window within a vehicle.

If you are looking for the ultimate in high technology, superior clarity and performance with a premium look – Then 3M Crystalline Automotive Window Film is for you. 3M Crystalline Automotive Window Films feature a proprietary, multilayer optical film technology that combines over 200 layers in a film that is thinner than a Post-it® Note. This unique technology is the reason a clear film can reject more heat than darker films, without changing your car's appearance.
Solar heat comes from two primary sources, the visible light you can see and the infrared light you can feel. Crystalline window films reject up to 97% of the sun's heat producing infrared light and block up to 60% of the heat coming through your windows. These industry-leading, spectrally-selective films are designed to keep you cool, comfortable and protected.
Designed to maintain the appearance of your car, Crystalline films allow up to 90% of the light into your vehicle. Because these films are non-metallized, you can be assured of zero interference with GPS or cell phone signals. Download 3M Crystalline Brochure

Marcia Cross, who is expecting twins in April, is looking forward to seeing double.
"I won the lottery at my age to have two," the 44-year-old Desperate Housewives star tells TV's Extra.
Cross and stockbroker Tom Mahoney, 48, were married in June. In October, Cross announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show she was expecting twins, saying: "I was sort of blown away that I was having twins, so I just needed a minute to deal with it."
And there are some things she's still dealing with. "I was really freaked out and I was terrified – what if I can't be a good mother to two and somebody would always be feeling left out?" she tells Extra.
Unlike her Housewives character, Bree Van de Kamp, Cross says she's "domestically challenged with a very big heart."
She also clears up any rumors of a problem pregnancy – "I haven't had a thing," she says, "I am absolutely, 100 percent fine" – but admits, "It's hard to carry around all that weight. I wake up feeling like me and then I step on the ground and I'm like, whose body is that walking to the bathroom?"
As for this week's news that her costar, Eva Longoria, is engaged to Tony Parker, Cross says: "She showed me the ring and I screamed. I think I scared them. Tony was there, and it was just fantastic!"

Spring training is a time when unknown gems can turn the heads of the front office, coaching staff and fans, and this year, many young stars have taken advantage of the opportunity to do so.
Whether it be on the mound or in the batter's box, these are the players who have made their mark in camp. Although they may not be on the 25-man roster come Opening Day, they will be in a short amount of time.
These players have proven that they have what it takes to play alongside and against major league talent, even though some of the talent during spring training isn't that great.
So which players have had a breakout spring through the first chunk of camp? Let's take a look at the 25 who have made the most noise.

Life imitates art house for Greta Scacchi, who stars in Country Life, a new film based loosely on Chekhov's Uncle Vanya. "I live a country life," says Scacchi, 35, who was born in Milan, educated in England and Australia and finally bought a cottage in Sussex, England, to grow some roots. "It's only in the last two years that I've been settled in one place. I've always lived a nomadic existence. My father was in Italy, my mother was in England, and I moved to Australia. Then I complicated it by spending enough time in Los Angeles to find myself a boyfriend." Scacchi has since split from actor Vincent D'Onofrio, the father of their 3-year-old daughter, Leila, and is enjoying the simple pleasures of home. "I always envied adults who can go back to their parents' house. They still have cardboard boxes and dollies in A Greta the attic. I'd love that for my daughter. I'll keep our little country house forever just so she has a place."
Moviedom's flamboyant evildoer Dennis Hopper emerges from Waterworld, his latest adventure, as Deacon, the monstrous leader of a marauding gang who will stop at nothing to find dry land. But playing the heavy on the Pacific set wasn't all smooth sailing. "My biggest problem," says Hopper, 59, "is that once I put my eye patch on, I had no depth perception. Getting on and off those moving boats was the most dangerous part of my day. I wore a metal costume that weighed 70 pounds. I had this big lead belt, a metal codpiece and this huge iron hook. I thought, 'If I ever fall off this boat, goodbye, world.' " Reassurance from the film's safety experts that they would rescue him "before I ever could touch bottom" failed to satisfy the actor, who asked, "And where is the bottom, man?"
Broadway's Grease! has become the coolest show in town since pop star Jon Secada donned the leather jacket of gang leader Danny Zuko, a role he'll play through December. To prep for his July 27 debut, Secada joined the musical's touring company. "I had quite an opening night in Grand Rapids," he says. "I accidentally locked myself in the dressing room's bathroom. I was in there for 20 minutes before they finally called a locksmith. Thank God I'm not claustrophobic." He made the curtain but nearly lost his ducktail. "I'm standing backstage and this huge backdrop fell right on my head," says Secada. "It whacked my wig, so I had to go onstage with my hair half on, half off. I fixed my rig as I was doing my thing. You've got to stay in charac-and do the best you can, but all this happened in one single bloody night."
In addition to playing feisty photographer Jo Reynolds on Fox-TV's prime-time soap Melrose Place, Daphne Zuniga has an NBC mini-series, Degree of Guilt, airing this fall and a steady beau, Billy Marti. "He's an actor and a chef," says Zuniga, 33. "He's a wonderful cook, a giving man, and he makes me laugh. I don't know why I took so long to find him." Given her Melrose character's tragically single status, how did Zuniga find her true love? "I met this cute guy and I insulted him for a week straight until he asked me out. Cut to six months later, and I'm wearing his underwear."

WALLINGFORD — For the rest of the season, the Chester players will do all of their talking on the basketball court.
The Clippers, who rolled to a 73-49 victory over Lebanon on Saturday at Strath Haven in the first round of the state Class AAAA boys' basketball playoffs, are after their second straight state title.
Focus, coach Alonzo Lewis says, is a key to their quest.
That focus, Lewis thinks, can be disturbed. So Lewis will do all of the talking after the games and let his players express themselves on the court.

Anote On Distributed Computing
from the abstract ...
A Note on Distributed Computing Jim Waldo, Geoff Wyant, Ann Wollrath, and Sam Kendall TR-94-29 (November 1994)
We argue that objects that interact in a distributed system need to be dealt with in ways that are intrinsically different from objects that interact in a single address space. These differences are required because distributed systems require that the programmer be aware of latency, have a different model of memory access, and take into account issues of concurrency and partial failure.
We look at a number of distributed systems that have attempted to paper over the distinction between local and remote objects, and show that such systems fail to support basic requirements of robustness and reliability. These failures have been masked in the past by the small size of the distributed systems that have been built. In the enterprise-wide distributed systems foreseen in the near future, however, such a masking will be impossible.
We conclude by discussing what is required of both systems-level and application-level programmers and designers if one is to take distribution seriously.
For several years, ever since I have been coding distributed applications, one of the things I have never been able to grasp is why would we try to imitate in process object model for distributed enterprise applications. For as long as I can remember I have modeled distributed applications as queueing systems. This entails use of a one or more queue managers between clients and servers, clients put out COMMANDS on one or more queues and subscribe to ACKNOWLEDGE. Servers have already subscribed to the COMMANDS, they perform their respective tasks and place ACKNOWLEDGE on designated queues. With proper architecture (pub/sub combos) this system cannot go down as long as there is at least one queue manager available to take COMMANDS. Granted if all servers / workers are down, your system won't be functional in real time but at least it won't fail.

Even the best boyfriend can be a pinhead every now and then.
Ladies, if your guy has any interest in sports, it stands to reason that you can score a lot of points by taking him to Xtreme Bowling on your next date night.
Just make sure you don't score more points than him — boys' egos can be awfully fragile.
Mobile's Florida Lanes transforms each Friday and Saturday night from a brightly-lit bowling alley to a disco dance club, with the iconic mirrored balls twirling from the ceiling and music videos flashing across several video screens.
There are more than 30 lanes on which to play, and the alley gives you up to three hours to strap on those infamous, stylish shoes and show off your bowling skills.
When you bowl your way to an appetite, the alley offers a variety of fried and fatty foods — chicken fingers, hot dogs, nachos with cheese, hot pretzels and more.
Where: Florida Lanes, 170 South Florida St., Mobile
Phone: 251-478-0485
Hours: 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday and Saturdays
Cost: $15.99 per person, including shoes, for as many games as you can bowl
Live music is often played in a separate lounge room, where you can duck in for an alcoholic beverage and a break from bowling.
Despite the extroverted implication of the name "Xtreme Bowling," there's little pressure to show off. Both novice and serious bowlers claim the lanes, and just as many strike-outs are thrown as actual strikes. The alley also offers bumper bowling.
Xtreme Bowling is the perfect pastime for a double or triple date, so you don't have to sacrifice a girls' or boys' night out to spend time with your significant other.
With such loud music, you'll abandon any attempt at serious conversation. Focus instead on frivolous competition: Challenge your partner to knock pins down with his eyes closed, or bet your sweetheart the price of a hot pretzel on the outcome of a game.

Zodiac Felties
By Nicola Tedman & Sarah Skeate
Gifted by Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC
Reviewed by Melissa Conner
I don't know about you, but I am obsessed with horoscopes. I don't know if it's the Scorpio in me that desires the knowledge, but the weekly horoscope section is the first place I turn to in my magazines and newspapers.
If you're like me and you love the irony and humor that comes with reading your horoscopes, you'll love Zodiac Felties, an adorable book filled with cute felt creatures that embody every sign.
These little felt creatures would make an awesome ornament gift set for a friend, or you can make the appropriate astrological character for a new baby on the way.
While I love the Scorpio design for obvious reasons, I also loved Cancer the Crab and Leo the Lion. In addition to the full set of 12 horoscope characters, there are also patterns to create adorable Moon, Sun, Venus, and Mars characters as well (the Moon character is maybe my favorite of all!).
With some simple sewing practices and a few embellishments, you can create your very own astrological character to take with you wherever you go.

Karina Smirnoff and Jacoby Jones are getting to know each other's bodies very well.
The pair have spent hours clutching one another as they rehearse for Dancing with the Stars. And, in particular, they appear to have spent hours more analyzing Jones's torso – which he bared Monday during the couple's impressive 24-point rumba.
"He took the shirt off [in rehearsal], and I was like, 'Hello! Let's investigate! What are these?!' " Smirnoff told PEOPLE after Monday's show, as the Super Bowl champion stripped down once again to reveal the dozens of tattoos emblazoned on his body.
Jones has clearly schooled his partner on the meaning behind them, as she took the lead in explaining what many of them stand for.
"Most of the tattoos came after Katrina," she said. (Jones was born and raised in New Orleans, and his childhood home and high school were destroyed by the 2005 hurricane.)
She pointed out his Super Bowl tattoo, along with the name of the street he was raised on, some scripture passages, the year of his birth, and images of the sun rising and setting. "This is my 'Me-kipedia,' " he said.
Smirnoff is clearly enamored with her partner, and he returned the compliment. "Dancing with a pretty woman, you can't do nothing but be graceful," he said.

Counterfeit drugs continue to be a dangerous issue in low-middle income areas. Issues were more evident after the 1930's when anti-freeze was mixed with anti-bacterial without taking into consideration the possible and deadly side effects.
Andy Stergachis, PhD, MS, BPHARM, a University of Washington professor in Epidemiology and Global Health, discussed efforts to reduce the use of counterfeit drugs. Stergachis said, "80% of the pharmaceutical chemicals that make up our drugs come from other countries."
The challenges that accompany international marketing of pharmaceutical ingredients are the adherence to international standards, control of supply chains, infrastructure deficits and lack of surveillance, just to name a few.
Even so, one of the subjects of counterfeit medication is malaria. The consequence of producing counterfeit malaria medication is that malaria becomes resistant to the medication. "Fake drug makers and their consumers ignore the fact that malaria medication needs to be taken in combination to prevent resistance and succeed in its cure," said Stergachis
Regardless, medicine continues to be among the most important health interventions but the fight against counterfeit drugs will need to continue. Doing so can prevent further increase of infectious disease cases, decrease the loss of malaria medication efficacy, and decrease the side effects of combination drugs.

Austerity: Causes, Consequences and Remedies
Sven R. Larson
Hill City Skunkworks, LLC
April 30, 2012
Austerity is a concept that is often used in the public debate. It refers to fiscal policy measures that reduce government spending and raise taxes for the purposes of closing a government budget deficit. This paper analyzes the concept in the context of the current European economic crisis and explains the limited options for policies to counter the negative effects of austerity.

The only sensation that comes remotely close is the first sip of coffee in the morning.
Roast pork belly. Bliss without the high
Four years Primal with influences from Jaminet & Shanahan and a focus on being anti-inflammatory. Using Primal to treat CVD and prevent stents from blocking free of drugs.
Eat creatures nose-to-tail (animal, fowl, fish, crustacea, molluscs), a large variety of vegetables (raw, cooked and fermented, including safe starches), dairy (cheese & yoghurt), occasional fruit, cocoa, turmeric & red wine
The only sensation that comes remotely close is the first sip of coffee in the morning.
F 28/5'4/100 lbs
"I'm not a psychopath, I'm a high-functioning sociopath; do your research."
Roasted chicken wings. Pork straight from the oven, with chilli/chocolate and sea salt. The fat from the said pork.
It's not food but during the first hour right after a Crossfit WOD (or any other super intense exercise) I feel better than what I used to feel right after a sugar/chocolate overdose... I guess I am a different kind of addict now
Runner's high is pretty close. Doesn't have to come from running, just any intense exercise that lasts over 20 min. It's hard to start sometimes, but that release of pleasure hormones is awesome.
I would also recommend trying hot peppers. I find that the Master Cleanse lemonade sans sweetener, with hot water, lemon and cayenne pepper often brings in a happy energetic feeling. Experimenting with various hot peppers can help you find the pepper that will just release the pleasure hormones without triggering too much pain.
Fruit, particular after a few years of enforced avoidance and restrictions is a huge lovely thing. For me it's apples and grapefruits rather than bananas (never liked 'em). Also, if you bake sweet potato, and make a souffle out of it with egg white with cinnamon and vanilla in a micro (I whip it in a Magic Bullet), it is so sweet, it's almost disgusting, but tastes wary.
Baby carrots and baby tomatoes have a way of being mood-lifting and bliss-inspiring.
Raw unpasteurized honey packs a hit of sweetness so powerful that a tablespoon is likely to send you in a coma of happy. I would not mix it with yogurt, because it reduces the impact.
Some people experience the highs from nuts and some - from coconut oil and peanut butter/other nut butter (yes, peanuts are legumes, and all that jazz, but really).

10 burpees give me an amazing endorphin rush, for very little time and effort
In food, I second the Greek yogurt and honey suggestion (add cinnamon too - YUM.)
Although personally I think the sugar phobia is overblown.
"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
Intense exercise or pain will do it. A tattoo for an example of pain. Now you know why some people have so many of them. Exercise is cheaper and more easily repeatable. It has to be exercise that is NOT FUN while you are doing it. Now you know why sugar is easier.

While dairy cows aren't always an option, dairy steers can be just as valuable as a 4-H project.
By Amanda Smith, Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor
Every 4-H member has a unique story. Whether they've consistently bred show ring champions or have overcome obstacles to get where they are today, all of their tales are inspirational in some way.
Late last year, Megan McCoy's story came across our desks after her mother, Christal, wrote to us. Embracing her love of animals, Megan's father, who grew up on a dairy outside of Ashland, Ohio, was the driver behind her dairy steer 4-H projects. Below is the story we received from Megan's family:
Megan is a 14-year-old student at Buckeye Central High School in New Washington, Ohio. She is heavily involved in her local 4-H club (Good Luck Sheep) and FFA chapter. She comes from a long line of FFA members. Her dad was an FFA member at Hillsdale High School outside of Ashland, Ohio. Her two older brothers, Chris and Nick (a United States Marine), were also members of their FFA chapter. Her brother Chris was the reporter for his chapter and loved every minute of it.
However, Megan's story goes like this: From the day she was born, she had a love for animals. When she was 5 years old, she was diagnosed with congenital hip dysplasia. Something that was not caught at birth forced her to have several surgeries over two years. Megan endured three long hip surgeries that left her in a body cast for two summers in a row.
Megan even started first grade in her body cast until we went back to Children's Hospital to have it removed, only to find ourselves fighting a blizzard to get home to our other children. Megan never let the fact that she had to play with the other children on the playground using her walker stop her. Our answer to her loneliness inside was a pet of some sort. My husband, Mike, picked out a kitten from a barn of one his friends. The smile on her face was priceless, and she still has "Sleepy" to this day. Sleepy knew exactly what his role was, to stay by Megan and keep her company and entertained.
Then when she was 8 when she suffered a grand mal seizure. It was the scariest night in my life! My oldest son, Chris, and I had to perform CPR on Megan until the EMS arrived. Again, Megan never let this disability stop her from doing what she loved.
Shortly after that, we brought a special little Beagle named Milly into our lives, but mostly for Megan. The one thing that brought her calm and happiness was a love of animals. At 13 years old she joined our local 4-H club and, to be honest, I thought she should do cake decorating. Her father, on the other hand, who grew up on a dairy farm just outside of Ashland, Ohio, had other ideas.
The next thing I knew, we were shopping for two Holstein bull calves for her to show at the two local fairs. Her first two were named "Beefy and Meaty" and boy did the tears flow the day of livestock release. The only good thing was that we knew exactly where they went, and we were allowed to stop and visit anytime (we did, too).
This past year we grew the project to three calves named "Chuck" (for chuck roast"), "T-Bone" and "Buckwheat." We don't live on a big farm, only two acres to be exact, but we make do with small calf hutches that our FFA built for us, and then we move them to a mega hutch. Megan gets up at 5:30 every morning before school and feeds them, gives them a hug, makes sure they have plenty of fresh straw to keep them warm and tells them, "Stay inside where it is warm, and I'll see you after school."
Her ambitions are great, and her father and I will do everything we can to help get there. She would love to go to school to become a veterinarian, and I can see it happening. Above is a picture of her and Buckwheat, and the natural love for her calves is clear as day.
The author is an associate editor and an animal science graduate of Cornell University. Smith covers feeding, milk quality and heads up the World Dairy Expo Supplement. She grew up on a Medina, N.Y., dairy, and interned at a 1,700-cow western New York dairy, a large New York calf and heifer farm, and studied in New Zealand for one semester.

Leak Detection Tips
So often, the biggest culprit of a high water bill comes from water leaks that go undetected. And you may not even know that you have a leak, because not all leaks are visible and may be underground or concealed.
Showerhead Exchange
If your bathroom fixtures have not been upgraded since 1996, the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department will exchange your actual showerhead for a more streamlined, cost-effective High-Efficiency showerhead as well as provide you with a conservation kit for your home.
Can the Grease!
Dumping cooking grease down the drain can cause serious damage to your pipes and sewage system. The best way to dispose of grease is to pour it into a can, let it cool, then throw it into the regular trash.
Is Your Water Cloudy?
There are times when the water that comes out of your faucet appears cloudy. Typically, it's short-lived, and it's important to know it is not contaminated. Read more about why your water may appear cloudy, and what to do when it does.
Hurricane Preparedness
When hurricane season approaches, you are reminded to prepare your home and family for the possibility of dangerous storms affecting Miami-Dade County. Among the preparations you should make is to ensure an adequate supply of water for yourself and your family (including pets).

The state Department of Transportation has good news and bad news about the daily lane restrictions on Main Street (Route 5) near the Youngmann Highway (I-290) in Amherst.
The good news is that the daytime lane closures are over. The bad news is that the lanes are being restricted at night, from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Maintenance work on the bridge over the Youngmann will take about two weeks, weather permitting, and one lane of traffic will be kept open in each direction, officials say.

Seabrook leaves with upper body injury
Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Brent Seabrook left Wednesday's game with an upper body injury after he was hit by Ducks defenseman James Wisniewski in the second period.
Just after Seabrook hit Corey Perry on the end boards, Wisniewski left his feet and slammed Seabrook against the glass. Seabrook appeared to be knocked out and crumpled to the ice.
Wisniewski received a charging penalty in addition to fighting Duncan Keith.
Seabrook was a Canadian Olympian.
The injury comes days after the Blackhawks lost defenseman Brian Campbell for 7-8 weeks after he was hit by Alex Ovechkin.
Chicago voiced its displeasure at the play, while Wisniewski didn't think the NHL would take any disciplinary action.
