So, welcome back, Martin.
We knew you'd return one day, although, if we're honest, it was something of a mild surprise that you're back with Sunderland; thought you'd have kept on eye on events at Chelsea and Spurs, maybe even the England national team, played the waiting game, stalling for a bigger prize.
Still, we're hardly in a position to judge, so forgive us if we've come across as a bit sour. We still are, you see: sour, sore and slightly jealous. You might feel some of those emotions coming from us on Saturday.
Anyway, thought it might be useful to give you a few pointers so you don't feel totally bewildered when you set foot back at Villa Park.
You won't find the place exactly as you left it - there are several thousand less supporters in the stadium these days. Those empty seats are par for the course, we're afraid, and don't be totally surprised if they multiply in number from the 70th minute onwards.
Those seats that are filled are usually done so by those carrying expressions of frustration mixed with nausea, despair and stultifying boredom. Funny to think that two or three years ago you'd see those same people full of anticipation and excitement. Those were the days, eh? Back then, of course, those fans knew their team always had a chance of beating anyone at home. Things have changed a bit now.
Don't spend too long scanning the field of play for familiar faces, either. Most of the lads you signed and worked with have gone: Ashley, Stewart, James - apologies, we shouldn't have mentioned James, we've just remembered the trouble it caused last time.
Brad's gone too; he went off to Tottenham, has probably been goalkeeper of the season, actually. Even little Nigel's gone. You and he had your differences at times and he wasn't always appreciated, but we could have done with him on occasions this season.
One or two of your old boys are still around. The big Irishman bust his shoulder a couple of months back, so you can forget about telling Sessegnon to spend the afternoon making him run around, though you might spot Gabby. You loved Gabby, didn't you? We all do. Make sure you don't miss him though - he'll be the one with his shoulders slumped and his head dropping; doesn't cut a happy figure much these days.
Of course! You'll see Emile on Saturday. Quite where, we're not sure - he could be right midfield, left midfield, centre-forward, even centre-back; stop laughing, it has been mentioned as a possibility by your Villa Park successor, though we haven't got that desperate. Yet. Actually, that reminds us - Emile's contract expires soon, so he's on the lookout for a new club. You might want to stick your chequebook into your tracksuit trouser pocket...
You may notice a rather forlorn chap in a rumpled suit and tie a few yards down the touchline from you on Saturday - he'll be the one looking lost and confused while you're remonstrating with the officials and urging your players on. Ring any bells? It should do. He's been our manager all season, apparently. The two of you go way back: Old Firm clashes with Celtic and Rangers, and Second City derbies when he was just down the road at St Andrews and you, of course, were sitting pretty with us. You'll no doubt remember the time your Villa side hammered his Birmingham team 5-1. Bet you never thought that one day Alex would be treading where you once did, as manager of AVFC.
No, neither did we.
But spare a thought for the man. In many ways, you are his nemesis. Wherever he goes, whatever he does, you have never been far away; a constant reminder, if you like. And while he's not exactly covering himself in glory this season, he's operating in very different times than you were. Long gone are the days of a Villa manager being able to spend millions on players to go straight on to the substitutes bench.
So welcome back, Martin. Your Sunderland team may be in the middle of an indifferent run of form - that being the case, this is almost the perfect fixture for you. We've been lousy at home all season. But we need the points more than you, so if you could ease off the pedal a bit, we'd appreciate it. All things considered, you probably owe us that.
He owes Villa more than three points tomorrow.
The guy should shoulder a large portion of the blame for us being in the predicament we are now.
Lerner invested a huge amount of faith in O'Neill and gave him plenty of money to spend. Once we were up in the top six, he had three seasons to push us one step forward which he failed to do.
And then, when Lerner had to tighten the purse strings, he pretty much stuck his finger up at us, threw his toys out of the pram and walked off.
Doing that is bad enough, but doing it five days before the start of the season is, in my opinion, unforgivable! I wish nothing but failure for O'Neill.
I have no issues with Sunderland, but I do not want to see him doing that stupid little jump at Villa Park on Saturday!
I'll boo him the moment he steps out of that tunnel.
By literary criteria, this might well be the most elegant piece you've written so far, Kevin. In these times of Villa apathy, we're at least fortunate to have your column to brighten the grey days.
I have predicted in November we would go down, too bad that our billion dollar chairman and million pound Villa management team do not do anything to save us. Villa fans, you are right, look after your pockets, just like Lerner is looking after his pocket.
But he'll probably get his calculation wrong, he has to sell the club cheaply because we would be in Championship next season.
Nothing can change now, the only way is down, down, down...

Those are neighborhoods targeted for high density to help reduce urban sprawl. A new report gives the city a mixed review. Among the critiques: people aren't living close enough to where they work. A Leading Question: Peter Steinbruck and Smart Growth By Bellamy Pailthorp • Jul 31, 2013 Bellamy Pailthorp / KPLU News Listen Listening... / 2:16 Editor's note: KPLU has asked all nine candidates in the Seattle mayoral race to tell us about a time when his or her leadership skills were put to the test. One candidate's answer follows. Peter Steinbrueck served on the Seattle City Council for 10 years, from 1997 to 2007. "They called me the activist council member. I'm also an architect, so I brought my background, experience, training as a problem solver and designer to public policy," Steinbrueck said. Lakewood releases Lewis-McChord growth coordination plans By Bellamy Pailthorp • Dec 21, 2010 NorthwestMilitary.com When 17-thousand troops returned from deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan this past fall, Joint Base Lewis McChord became the 3rd largest employer in the state. That's according to the City of Lakewood, which has released a plan to accommodate the rapid population growth in the communities around the base.

CHARLESTON - The RiverDogs are going green: Alvin Greene that is.
With all the talk earlier this year of a "Mr. Liberty" statue at nearby Patriots Point, the RiverDogs already planned to give away miniature "Mr. Liberty" statues to the first 1,000 fans in attendance Saturday for their minor league baseball game against the Augusta GreenJackets.
In January, an Atlanta-based group proposed a male counterpart of the Statue of Liberty to stand guard over Charleston Harbor. The proposal was rejected by Patriots Point officials, and later by North Charleston officials.
Reacting to Greene's plans for economic development, the Charleston ballclub has decided to place Mr. Greene's face on these figurines.
"Who better epitomizes the American dream that anything is possible than Mr. Greene?" said RiverDogs General Manager Dave Echols.
Greene, the Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, stated recently that in an effort to reduce the state's high unemployment rate, action figures in his likeness should be created and sold.
"Little dolls. Me. Like maybe little action dolls. Me in an Army uniform, Air Force uniform and me in my suit," Greene said last week.
Greene said Thursday the team didn't talk to him before creating the promotion, but he doesn't mind.
"As long as it looks good and is in good nature, I'm OK," Greene said by phone from his home near Manning.
Taking a cue from the Manning native, the RiverDogs will set up an economic stimulus station on the stadium's concourse. Special workers -- hired specifically for this game, according to the RiverDogs -- will be available at the station to place cutouts of Mr. Greene's face on fans' statues, completing the ultimate "Mr. Liberty" figurine.
The team also plans to have a press ready to make T-shirts modeled on the "Greene Family Reunion" shirt from 1993 the candidate was photographed in the day after his shocking primary win.
The RiverDogs are a Class A affiliate of the New York Yankees known for wacky promotions, thanks in part to president Mike Veeck, whose father was famous major league baseball promoter Bill Veeck.
The team set a record for having no fans in the stands on Nobody Night. They tried to have Vasectomy Night on Father's Day 13 years ago, but canceled it when some fans complained it was too crass.
First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. Saturday at Riley Park. For more information on tickets visit riverdogs.com or call the box office at 843-577-DOGS (3647).

"Nelson Mandela reminded us all of our common humanity," Gov. Neil Abercrombie said. "He was the symbol and the living reality of what perseverance and determination a human being can bring to bear on behalf of the freedom of us all.
"It's less that he is passed from us than the message of his life stays with us. If we can retain that in our hearts and our minds, then we, too, can focus on our common humanity for the benefit of all."

Obviously those of us who have not had gastric bypass surgery will have a very different experience to the primal foods we eat than you will (there is already plenty of variety in responses between primals without having had such surgery). Therefore, only those who have had the surgery and have also gone primal will have "helpful" advice.
I think it may be difficult for you to follow a fully primal diet without a full stomach to digest with but that is mere speculation on my part.
Good luck with your post surgery and I hope you find your optimal health.

Very cute. I was wondering how this might look if the large squares were all the same or similar. I love seeing how the project translates to other fabric choices. Very inspirational. Thanks.

More high school athletics, good or bad?
April 7, 2014 - Robert Collias
Hawaii has more types of state tournaments than any state in the Union, with unique sports (for preps) including judo, outrigger canoe paddling, and air riflery.
As soon as next year, surfing could be in the mix.
It was a little over a decade ago that Hawaii added a Division II — meant for smaller schools, but not always used that way by the gargantuan OIA — but some states have been backing away from the bigger-is-better approach.
In recent years, there has been a push for Division III in Hawaii. With only about 50 high schools here that play football, for example, and up to 40 percent of teams qualifying for some sportsa' state tournaments, I personally don't think a D-III is necessary.
I am, BTW, all for surfing in Hawaii — an idea that has taken way too long to get going.
Starting with the state where I was born and raised, Oregon, the trend I have been reading about is for fewer divisions after fairly recent expansions. Often, keeping or renewing old rivalries is the reason.
And there is the fact that — as it does at every level — football runs the ship.

Our community has seen a lot of press recently about the four charter amendment ballot questions. Citizens should vote NO on all four for three reasons: they embody logrolling, further disenfranchisement of voters and more petition exclusions.
REASON 1: LOGROLLING. The county has bundled 21 ordinances into four ballot questions, arguing that 1) there wasn't space on the ballot to list them separately, and 2) they were all related within each question, such that none could stand on its own without affecting all the others in the bundle.
LAGRI pointed out to council "limited space on the ballot" was not grounds for preventing the citizens from voting intelligently on individual and disparate issues; there was no haste to bring these proposals to the voters; and that these proposals could be presented in the special election being planned in the spring for the other charter amendment proposals (e.g. utilities, clerk). It was also pointed out that a regularly scheduled separate municipal election, as practiced in every other New Mexico municipality, would reduce overload such as this on the general election ballot.
One of the few issues to be laid to rest this campaign season is voter fraud. Fears, mostly on the right, that noncitizens might be voting, manifested in voter identification bills here and across the nation.
Bearing the voter-fraud torch was Secretary of State Dianna Duran, who proceeded to botch the effort from beginning to end. She announced early last year that New Mexico had a "culture of corruption," a charge repeated in national media. (Just what we need.) Later she referred 64,000 possibly fraudulent voter records to the State Police. That number plummeted a year ago to 104 voters who were illegally registered to vote and 19 who actually voted illegally.
In her report, Duran stuck her jaw out and accused her critics of being partisan while insisting that her office was "simply not in that game," and that even though 19 didn't sound like much, any instance of vote fraud was significant. Democrats returned fire.
More telling was the response of the nonpartisan Common Cause New Mexico. The group applauded Duran's effort to clean up the state's voter records but charged that Duran was "deliberately undermining public trust in New Mexico elections purely to promote policies, such as voter photo ID, which are designed to prevent qualified New Mexicans from casting a ballot."
In response to the Sept. 21 Los Alamos Monitor article regarding the Ashley Pond project meeting. This was a 30% design meeting to discuss the renovations at the pond, by no means the final.
Why have the meeting if the public input is not welcome or its considered too late. People can not always attend all the meetings, but I was at the earlier meetings, I voiced my concern about the stage on the water but there was no response. I realize majority rules. But so should common sense.
People were not there to protest at this last meeting, it was a nice discussion. I think all those in attendance at this meeting are for the renovations and don't want delay, some of us that voiced our opinions just want this stage on the water rethought.
It could certainly save the County lots of money if they leave off this stage. Funny how the project consultant, George Radnovich could not even tell us how much this stage would cost. Only what the cover for the stage would be depending on the style selected. It was mentioned that the cover would have to be removed after each event, where would it be stored, how much time will this require?
SANTA FE — Super PACs have overwhelmed the political scene this year. Their presence is gigantic. It takes 10 million $10 contributions to equal the hundreds of millions that one high roller drops in.
During the presidential primary nearly every candidate had a personal billionaire on hand for any help that might be needed. And the way these billionaires sidled up to the candidate of their choice — even appearing on stage with them — it seemed obvious that the rule about not coordinating with the candidate's campaign was a complete joke.
Comedy Channel program hosts Steven Colbert and Jon Stewart had a slapstick routine for several programs in which Colbert formed a Super PAC staffed by volunteers from Stewart's office, which was just down the hall in the same building.
Stewart, as a candidate, supposedly wanted to follow the rules and not do any coordinating. But that was rich guy Colbert's total plan. So Colbert chased Stewart all over the building with doors slamming and Stewart screaming for help.
Sadly, Colbert raised over $1 million for his Super PAC simply by making a joking request for funds one night. The donations didn't cause Colbert any paper work since names of Super PAC contributors are secret.
Yeah yeah yeah, I can hear the energy baggers whining already. Well back off, you oil addict freaks. I'm not writing about drill baby drill. We'll fight that battle some other time (like maybe when you're fighting over the last drop).
No, my topic today is about drilling students.
Years ago, I shared an article with my colleagues discussing the value of having students memorize mathematical basics (like the times table, common square roots, conversion between percentages and fractions) so that the students would have more "brain processing power" dedicated to working more complex concepts. I was quickly "scolded" by an administrator who simply said "Drill drill drill! Kill kill kill!"
This is a buzz-phrase one learns while getting a professional lobotomy. It means, "If you force a student to memorize material, it kills their motivation to acquire knowledge through discovery and contextual relevance."
Scott Buchanan and Stringfellow Barr did not cause the revolution in college education they desired when, 75 years ago, they brought what is called "The New Program" to St. John's College in Annapolis, Md.
Overall, though, they did well. Their efforts saved the nearly bankrupt Annapolis St. John's, led to a second St. John's – the one in Santa Fe, now nearly 50 years old – and their "New Program" is the gold standard for those favoring reading books, sometimes difficult books. The full disclosure is that I attended the Santa Fe St. John's the first three semesters it was open, did far too little of the work and decamped for the University of New Mexico.
While the Santa Fe St. John's status as a significant New Mexico business is beside the point here, it should be mentioned. The numbers are about 175 employees, 450 students, an operating budget of around $30 million, plus being a draw for visitors from around the country, especially during summer.
Saying what St. John's really does isn't easy.
World Rabies Day is Friday.It is a day to raise awareness about the impact of human and animal rabies. More than 55,000 people die from rabies worldwide every year, a rate of one person every 10 minutes. This is an astonishing number, especially because rabies in humans in 100 per cent preventable. Most of these cases are transmitted to humans by dogs.
World Rabies Day events have been held in 150 countries, and have vaccinated 7.7 million dogs to date. World Rabies Day was created in 2006 by the Global Alliance for Rabies Control. The Alliance consisted of researchers and professionals involved with human and animal healthcare, including Dr. Leon Russell, professor in the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences (CVM).
Russell explained that the goal of World Rabies Day is to reduce the amount of rabies cases throughout the world by ensuring adequate animal vaccination and control, educating people who may be at risk, and increasing access to appropriate medical care for those bitten by rabies infected animals. For more information about getting animals vaccinated on World Rabies Day in your area, please contact your local veterinarian.
SANTA FE — Gov. Susana Martinez's popularity among New Mexico voters recently shot up from 60 percent to 69 percent in a recent Albuquerque Journal poll. That puts her in third place nationally according to the latest figures I find.
Such high popularity is quite unusual for a governor in a state dominated by the opposite party. It also is unusual for a member of the freshman class of new Republican governors around the nation elected in 2010.
Most of those governors have had a terrible time overcoming their initial efforts to change the direction of state government. Gov. Martinez, instead picked her battles and didn't try to take big chunks from schools or Medicaid, which are more popular with voters.
Martinez's sudden nine-point jump in popularity likely was caused by the timing of the poll which came just after Martinezís Republican National Convention speech. The speech didn't have much of an effect on the nationwide television audience but it did in New Mexico.
Since the three network channels cut away for commercials and analysis of Condoleezza Rice's speech, many missed out on Martinez. But New Mexicans apparently did some channel switching to find Martinez on PBS, C-Span or a 24-hour news channels.
The phone call is from a pollster – another one.
This year I decided that if they sound even halfway legitimate, I'm going to take the time and answer their questions. I want my opinion to count. In past years I have been more wary, suspecting that no matter how they masquerade, their mission is more nefarious than what they say.
(I don't respond to calls that promise that in return for answering a few questions I will qualify for a free two-day cruise.)
The season's first polling call took about 15 minutes, and the questions were fascinating. Minutes later, I remembered I'm a newspaper columnist and kicked myself for not taking notes. This time, I was sitting at my computer when the pollster called.
The pollster asks what I think are the most important issues facing New Mexico. I say, economic development and education. Later I wished I had said something more original, like general ineptitude, New Mexico's 49th rank in almost everything, or perhaps the issue that logically should stop growth in its tracks, water. But realistically, politicians can't make it rain.
Today's poll is about my district's candidates for state Senate. I didn't tell the pollster I am acquainted with both candidates, but she didn't ask.
As a kid, I remember my parents discussing whether they could vote for a Roman Catholic, John F. Kennedy. It was a hot topic at the time. They liked Kennedy and did vote for him. After that the issue of a candidate's religion seemed to wane, at our dinner table and nationally.
In this campaign, some have had to think about whether they could vote for a Mormon, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. It appeared to be a lesser issue, compared to the front-page issues.
Then a friend forwarded the photograph of a crusader demanding that a large number of groups "repent and believe in Jesus." Here's a portion of the list: "homos, druggies, gangsters, feminists, Mormons, Buddhists, Catholics, wife beaters, New Agers, Democrats, environmentalists, racists, government recipients, Jehovah's Witnesses, perverts, loud mouth women, liberals and sports nuts."
My, my. So, in some circles it's still a hot topic.
Rob Nikolewski, of Capitol Report New Mexico, recently pilloried a couple of national magazines for religious bigotry in their coverage of Romney, and rightly so. To my knowledge, we haven't seen anything similar in New Mexico. We're pretty tolerant here, but part of the story is our history.

Kingston Hyper-X 2133MHz Dual Channel Review
Test Setup and Overclocking
Published: 8th September 2010 | Source: Kingston | Price: £133.93 |
Test Setup
CPU : Intel i7 870 @ 3.7GHz
GPU : ASUS HD5850 Top
RAM : Kingston Hyper-X T1 2250C9 4GB
PSU : Cougar 1000CM
HDD : Samsung Spinpoint 1TB
Motherboard : Gigabyte P55 UD4
OS : Windows 7 64
Cooling : Thermalright MUX-120 with Arctic Cooling MX-3
Thanks to our unlocked i7 870 and the available memory dividers we kept our i7-870 at 3.7GHz at both XM1 speeds and when we overclocked the Hyper-X. Speaking of which.
The Hyper-X comes with the main XMP profile at 9-11-9-27 @ 1066MHz (2133 effective). The Hyper-X T1 isn't built for tight timings, but for extreme speed. That's where we come in. Firstly here is the memory at the standard XMP1 profile which will be our "stock" setting in our benchmarks.
Overclocking this most definitely is an easy thing. We always make sure to get results that you can try at home and without exotic methods purely to obtain large e-peen numbers, so with the voltage kept at 1.65v, and standard air cooling, we set about seeing how high we could push.
1230MHz for an effective DDR3-2460! In fact we're pretty convinced that with water-cooling and a motherboard stable at higher BCLKs this will just run and run. We did need to slacken the timings further to obtain this result, so this will also be a great test of the eternal MHz vs CAS debate.

Infinite Roots
Roots – The What, Where, Why, How and When of Infinite Yoga…
By Dana Rae Paré – Founder and Creative Director
When I was designing the schedule at Infinite, I thought names like Foundation and Soul Vinyasa were much more interesting than Yoga Level 1, 2, 3, etc. I wanted the names to reflect the feeling and format of the class and mesh well with our urban, downtown yoga sanctuary…
I also thought that most people wouldn't understand the traditional Sanskrit names, but lately I keep having students ask me "What style of Yoga is this?" or better yet…"Is this anything like xxx Yoga"??? Which, along with my recent yoga teacher training, has sparked the idea for this article. I'll be as clear and concise as possible and hopefully answer a few or your questions.
Knowledge is Power, so here we go…
Sri K Pattabhi Jois
Sri BKS Iyengar
TKV Desikachar
Still following? It comes together now…
The unique path of Infinite Yoga combines influences and inspiration from all 3 styles, but the source of all our classes is Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. Some of our classes follow the strict traditional sequence of Ashtanga Vinyasa, while other classes use inspiration from Iyengar or Desikachar's yoga therapy. Our combination enables students to practice and continue to progress in yoga, regardless of their age, experience or physical challenges – making Ashtanga Vinyasa accessible to all.
Here's a very brief description of each of the 3 styles:
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga: A "breath-fueled" set sequence of asanas in a continuous flow with precise rhythm, movement and number of breaths ("vinyasa") as well as a particular focus of the eyes (drishti) and internal energy locks (bandhas). A dynamic and powerful practice.
Iyengar Yoga: Many of the same postures (asana) of Ashtanga Vinyasa, taught at a slower pace with emphasis on detailed alignment. Known for its verbal precision, adjustments, and use of props. Designed to enable all levels and ages to practice throughout various stages of life.
Yoga Therapy: Taught one to one with a huge emphasis placed on breath and postures being adapted to each student on an individual basis. Each student is given a prescribed program based on their needs and capabilities, often includes pranayama (breath work), Mantra (chanting) and yoga philosophy (Patanjali's Yoga Sutras).
So back to the beginning again. Now that you know what kind of yoga you are doing, why does it matter? and what's in it for you?
By combining these different styles of yoga you have a broader base to work with and continue to grow and progress. With all 3 coming from the same source there is no conflicting information from class to class, or from IY teacher to IY teacher (more on teachers soon).
It is easier to understand and see how it applies to you if you glance down the list of classes and check out the style that "inspired" their formats.
Foundation based on the breath of Ashtanga (Ujayii) combined with the precision of Iyengar. Emphasis is placed on alignment, use of props, and developing more body awareness (lifting kneecaps!).
Ashtanga Vinyasa All Levels Half Ashtanga Vinyasa, half Iyengar inspired. Features the stamina and strength building Ashtanga Vinyasa sequence taught with the traditional rhythm and breath for the first half of class. Second half of class breaks down the more challenging postures in a more Iyengar influenced way via precise alignment details, prep postures, props, and a slightly slower pace.
Soul Vinyasa Ashtanga Vinyasa, Yoga Therapy & Me. A flowing class based on the literal meaning of vinyasa from the roots of Krisnamacharya. "Vi" "nyasa" or special placing refers to impeccable sequencing combined with a hot soundtrack, a bit of my dance background and a weekly meditative focus.
Ashtanga Vinyasa Level 3-4 Traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga – no getting around it. It's the pure primary series of Ashtanga. A continuous uninterrupted flowing series, each breath is counted precisely in Sanskrit throughout this dynamic class. With dedicated practice and proficiency primary series becomes a moving meditation with tremendous mental focus.
Mysore The "Ashtanga Vinyasa Level 3-4" class (above) is the way that K Pattabhi Jois would verbally lead a class. This rarely happens except when he was on tour outside India. When you studied at his school in Mysore, India, you learn yoga step by step, one posture at a time – the "Mysore way". Students move on to the next posture only when the previous one has been mastered. At Infinite Yoga's Mysore class we preserve this traditional method, and adapt it with TKV Desikachar's yoga therapy approach. For most students this means following the traditional series step by step, posture by posture, with no exceptions. But for students dealing with injuries, pregnancy, and other limitations, individual attention and guidance is provided. (Similar to working with a teacher privately where prep postures, modifications and props are used to help the student progress.)
Improv Ashtanga, Iyengar, Forrest. Explores the more challenging postures of Primary (1st), Intermediate (2nd) and Advanced A (3rd) Series of Ashtanga in an improvisational unique format. Combines prep postures, longer holds, deeper breath and intense focus. Inspired by Iyengar and Forrest Yoga with precise step by step details and impeccable sequencing at a slightly slower pace. Move beyond boundaries, gain insight and deepen your understanding of yourself.
So there you have it, the IY class schedule, deeply steeped in Ashtanga tradition, with specialty classes to bring understanding, balance, longevity and fun to your yoga practice and progress!
What about the IY teacher's roots?
OK, here it is, the IY family tree of our teacher's and our teacher's teachers. First a quick review of all the teachers mentioned : T. Krishnamacharya (the source), K Pattabhi Jois (Asthanga), BKS Iyengar (Iyengar), TVK Desikachar (Yoga Therapy), Ana Forrest (Forrest Yoga). Got it?
Dana and Trevor have all studied directly with K Pattabhi Jois in Mysore, India and in the U.S. and traveled to India in 2009 for his Memorial Service. (they also met in Mysore in 2001). Holly, Janike, Deanna & Aryn have studied with him during his U.S visits. Dana has also studied in India with R Sharath, the grandson of K Pattabhi Jois. Troy has studied with K Pattabhi Jois in India on many occasions.
Dana, Trevor, Holly, Janike & Deanna have all taken Tim Miller's teacher training. Tim was the first American to be certified by K Pattabhi Jois to teach the Ashtanga Vinyasa system. Troy studied with Tim for many years.
Dana & Trevor have both taken Iyengar teacher trainings. Not directly with Mr. Iyengar, but with senior Iyengar teachers Roger Cole (Dana) and Eddy Marks & Mary Obendorfer (Trevor). Dana and Trevor have also taken multiple workshops and classes with senior Iyengar teachers.
Dana & Trevor have both studied briefly, but directly, with TKV Desikachar (Krishnamacharya's son). Dana and Oreste have both studied with Kausthub Desikachar, son of TKV Desikachar, and grandson of T. Krishnamacharya. Oreste visited Chennai in India to study with Kausthub at KYM (Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram).
Dana has completed teacher training with Ana Forrest (Ana's first teacher training). Trevor has taken workshops with Ana.
Deanna and Oreste have studied with Mark Whitwell who studied directly with T. Krishnamacharya and TKV Desikachar for 20 years.
Janike, Deanna, Oreste, Aryn, Jennifer, Eliza & Erin have all completed Infinite Yoga's Teacher Training with Dana, and are Registered Yoga Teachers with Yoga Alliance.
Trevor, Aryn, Deanna, Jennifer, Eliza & Oreste have all studied with Infinite Yoga for many years. The combination of this with their dedication to Ashtanga Yoga, brings consistency and quality to the teaching you experience at Infinite Yoga.
So there is our IY family tree. You can see how our classes and our teachers are all connected. Whenever you attend class you become part of that connection, the yoga community, with a solid path and a yoga lineage that has been passed down from teacher to teacher for thousands of years!
I hope you've found this useful and gained some insight.

The weekend was a tale that ended happily for the now undefeated Leopard field hockey team, but it came about in an entirely different way from their previous day's victory . The win over 13th ranked Boston College was a demonstration of power and skill, yesterday the 3-2 overtime win was one Lafayette had to dig deep into their gut to emerge the victors.
Down two goals to none with five minutes to go, the Leopards were playing a determined and motivated Quinnipiac squad. Lafayette had the better of the Bobcat teams in recent games and this year it was on their turf in their tournament. The Leopards were the statistical leader in the game, but were trailing in the only statistic that counted, which was in goals. It was freshman Rosie Shanks who rose to the challenge scoring the first goal of her collegiate career with about 4 minutes left, making the score 2-1.
At the 1:30 mark Lafayette pulled their goalie and went for broke, putting defender Jenna Seybert in the position, but in reality leaving the Leopards with 11 field players. Seybert on several occasions was able to bring the ball up and turned away from the twenty five, but at last the Leopards were to enter their shooting circle and initiate offensive play. They were to earn two corners at the end, the last occurring as time ran out. With 0 showing on the clock Kendall Weedling was able to get a shot, rebounding off the Bobcat goalie which Rosie Shanks collected and placed between the legs of the excellent Quinnipiac goalkeeper for the tie.
In the overtime, the Leopards were to dominate play in the seven on seven period using their speed to good advantage getting off 7 shots to Quinnipiac's none. It was captain Brittany Blass who was to take charge with about 7 minutes left in the overtime, taking the ball from the midfield, overpowering several defenders, drawing a foul and finishing her trip the circle in a quick self start and smacking the ball past the Quinnipiac goalie.
This was a game of the heart which showed great determination and grit. More importantly it demonstrated to this team what they are capable of. It's now on to another weekend as the Leopards continue their road campaign against Monmouth on Friday ( who lost to Bucknell 3-1 on Sunday), and Big Ten rival Rutgers on Sunday.

On Monday, Slate featured an excellent article by Richard Kahlenberg that focused on the problems with Michelle Rhee's credo and his dismay at the continued media endorsement of her efforts. In critiquing Rhee, the article also provides cogent arguments dealing with anti-union fervor (a timely topic in light of current events in states like Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio) and how this can serve to push into the background the singly most problematic element the education industry deals with: disadvantaged prospects and likelihood for achievement among students, stemming from race and income inequalities
While Kahlenberg acknowledges that Rhee made some significant improvements to DC public schools—such as ensuring that students got textbooks on time and making efficient use of space by closing under-used schools—he asserts that contrary to popular claims, "she didn't revolutionize education in DC."
First, Kahlenberg points out that Rhee's primary arguments are "seductive" because they are so simple and optimistic. She argues that unions serve the twofold purpose of protecting bad teachers and disallowing incentives that could be brought about by paying great teachers more. In fact, according to Rhee our education system's general problems are due to teacher failure rather than poverty. Kahlenberg writes that "it indeed would be wonderful if poverty and segregation didn't matter, and if heroic teachers could consistently overcome the odds for students whom everyone agrees deserve a better shot in life"—but this simply is not the case.
Kahlenberg does not focus on this, but I will concede that it makes more sense to focus on teacher performance in affluent schools where chronic issues like student truancy, discipline problems, hunger, community acceptance of dropping out, and lack of family and community support for achievement are much less an issue . But it is indefensible to unilaterally blame teachers for lack of student achievement in low-income schools.
Kahlenberg provides evidence for this: he asks if firing bad teachers and paying great teachers more are all there is to education excellence, "why haven't charter schools, 88% of which are nonunionized and have that flexibility, lit the education world on fire?" He points out that the most comprehensive study of charter schools so far—conducted by Stanford University and sponsored by pro-charter foundations—found that charter schools only outperform regular public schools 17 percent of the time, and in fact 37 percent do significantly worse. He also asks why schools in southern states don't fare better, since they typically either have weak teachers' unions or lack them altogether. Further, research indicates low-income students in affluent schools are on average two years ahead of the same cohort in high-poverty schools, and this is primarily attributed to the effect that better-performing students from more opportune backgrounds have on lower-performing/lower-income ones.
Second, though poverty rather than teacher quality is the greatest cause of education breakdown in the nation, the major unions recognize the validity of maintaining a good teaching force, and have offered plans to get rid of bad teachers in fair ways. One of the problems with Rhee's firings were that they were done haphazardly, often for unclear reasons, and sometimes without following proper protocol—assertions supported by a recent decision by a DC arbitrator to reinstate 75 educators whom Rhee fired without due process.
And Kahlenberg points out that while Rhee has been dismissive of using collaboration between educating parties, using collaboration can be highly effective in getting rid of bad teachers in a way that benefits remaining teachers rather than concerning them with the possibility of arbitrary dismissal. For example, some communities—like Montgomery County, MD and Toledo, OH—use a peer evaluation system in which excellent teachers to come into schools and help struggling educators. However, they also provide recommendations for some to be terminated. Kahlenberg writes that "teachers were tougher on colleagues than administrators had been because the 7th-grade teacher is hurt when the 6th-grade teacher is incompetent." The AFT supports peer review, even though in some cases it removes many more teachers than occurs under other evaluation systems.
Kahlenberg ends his article by asserting that Rhee's "war on teachers' unions was a sideshow that distracted from the more important effort to give more low-income students a chance to attend middle-class public schools." And he is disappointed that with her StudentsFirst initiative, she is simply redoubling her approach and allying with anti-union politicians. He concludes by asking how long it will take for the press to recognize that this approach "won't bring about the civil rights revolution in education that's so sorely needed."
In addition to casting more focus on her political alliances, we should have a more critical view of her history. What, exactly, is her claim to education expertise? She taught for two years? Her own descriptions of herself suggest she had some struggles as a teacher - which I would expect of anyone who taught for only two years. Her earlier claims about test scores turned out to be bogus. Then she went to work outside of schools and school systems for a while. Then, when she returned to schools, it was mainly due to political patronage. And how well did she handle DCPS? Well, as an executive handling a budget, hmmmm, they had money, didn't have money, found money again... As an administrator in charge of educational programs, she brought in outside money and outside operators that didn't fare all that well and expressed a commitment to schools and kids that only ran as deep as their commitment to Michelle Rhee; I don't know if they followed through, but they intimated that if she were forced out of DCPS they'd pull out too. Then, her first 75 firings were found to be so mismanaged that they were not legally supportable, so those teachers get reinstated and they get back pay - $7 million out the door. As an ambassador to the community, Rhee's lack of success was manifest at the ballot box. So... why are we listening to her, exactly?

Happy for you! The job situation sounds great. I hope the 5-HTP helps with the sleep.
Happy for you! The job situation sounds great. I hope the 5-HTP helps with the sleep.
Depression Lies
I slept great last night with 2 but I'm thinking tonight, I will only take one. I am exhausted all to hell from work today. I have to be back at it in the morning and then am off Sunday and Monday. I'm debating on making an appt to see the chiro on Monday. Need to see if this is a stress headache or what. I know that I also need to get my water intake back up but that hasn't been easy right now.
Do you have a water bottle that you can carry with you? I have a Kleen Kanteen (metal bottle) that I keep with me at home and at work. I always have 2-3 glasses of water in the morning, plus 27 oz from the Kanteen during the day, plus 1-2 in the evening. The glasses are from taking various supplements in powder form. That means I get at least 8 glasses, which seems to be the right amount for me to stay hydrated.
Depression Lies
I need help. I'm having some serious issues keeping up with NK and my job. I hate to cook meals ahead of time, but I think that I'm going to have to. I have no idea how to cook like that, other than crockpot cooking. When I came home from work last night and tonight, we had respectively, pizza and chinese. Last night, I just ate the toppings off the pizza and tonight I had fried rice and an egg roll. I'm exhausted when I get home from work and don't want to do a damn thing. I like my job, but its very stressful and I'm finding myself wanting to slip and I know that if I slip, I'll never make goal. I will not give up dairy, I think right now that would be very bad for me. I've been considering eating nothing but fat bombs when I get home and let the family fend for themselves. This job is so different from anything that I've ever done and with the way I felt the last 2 nights, I'm not sure I can keep up with both the job and NK.
Someone has talked about getting crockpot liners, sticking all the ingredients in them, then closing them with a twisty tie and freezing them. Well Fed talks about cooking your proteins, and either per-cooking veggies or using steamer bags of them and throwing a protein and a cooked veg into the skillet & seasoning it while reheating it. I just make large portions when I cook: tons of meatballs, 2 chickens in the crockpot at once, etc.
Hope that helps.
Most people don't realize how much energy it takes for me to pretend to be normal.
If I wanted to listen to an asshole, I'd fart.
Twibble's Twibbly Wibbly
Last nights The Walking Dead literally scared the living shit out of me. I can handle the zombies and the killing of zombies, blah blah blah, but one of the primary characters is showing his true sociopathic dark and sadistic colors and it scared the living shit out of me. Had my first nightmare in months and woke up in a cold, cold sweat. I think I even screamed in my sleep. I am grateful that I am off on Mondays because after I take Heather to school, I am going back to bed for a couple of hours.
I never did take that nap today. I ended up going out to get the dogs their Comfortis and got a few things needed at the store. I just finished my workout and am sweaty as hell. Literally. Hopefully, I can get to bed early. I do want want to make some crockpot taco meat so I can be a bit lazy lol. I may take a small nap after I pick up the girls from school today.

Lenovo is best known for its ThinkPad range of laptops, but those machines generally command high prices that not everyone can afford. For such a modestly priced laptop, the Lenovo Essential B570 really does punch above its weight. Its looks much better than you'd expect, the keyboard and screen are excellent, and it's a surprisingly speedy performer too. If your budget is tight, it's an excellent bet.

STATE COLLEGE - Alex Dickerson launched his third home run of the year and Taylor Lewis tied the State College Spikes' single-season triples record, but it took Junior Sosa's RBI single in the ninth inning to give the Spikes a 4-3 win over the Batavia Muckdogs on Wednesday night at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park.
Dickerson's blast off, a towering shot over the right-center field wall off of Batavia (35-35) starter Jose Almarante, gave State College (28-43) a 1-0 lead in the first inning. The Spikes added another run in the second when Roderrick Jones singled with two outs and Alex Fuselier doubled to bring him home.
Spikes' starter Mike Jefferson kept it a 2-0 game through five innings, as he allowed no runs on two hits and a walk while striking out one over that time. Jefferson also forced four popouts to Dickerson over the course of his outing.
The Muckdogs notched their first run in the sixth inning. Vance Albitz led off the stanza with a walk, then advanced to second on Garrett Wittels's single down the right-field line. After a wild pitch, Romulo Ruiz hit a sacrifice fly to right field that scored Albitz, but Fuselier threw out Wittels after he wandered too far off of second base.
Lewis then extended the Spikes' lead to 3-1 in the seventh inning with his three-base hit to right field to bring in Jones. The outfielder joins Aaron Baker in 2009 and Adalberto Santos in 2010 as the only State College players with seven triples in a single season.
In the ninth though, Batavia mounted a rally. David Medina singled with one out, and then Philip Cerreto followed with another base hit. Virgil Hill subsequently grounded into a fielder's choice for the second out, but Reggie Williams tripled to center field to score two runs and tie the game.
The Spikes would have the final response, however. Fuselier walked with one out and stole second base to set things up for Sosa's two-out, walk-off base hit in the bottom of the inning to send State College home a winner.
Emmanuel De Leon (2-2), who was tagged with a blown save after the two Batavia runs in the ninth, ended up with the win. De Leon allowed three hits in his only inning on the mound.
Batavia reliever Ethan Cole (1-1) took the loss after pitching the ninth. Cole recorded one of his two outs via strikeout. Almarante made his longest outing of the year in the start, going seven innings and yielding three runs, two of them earned, on six hits and a walk.
Thursday, the Spikes take the field for their 2011 home finale at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park as they face the Muckdogs for the final time this season. State College will have right-hander Nick Kingham (5-2) on the mound. The right-hander from Las Vegas, NV holds the fourth-best ERA in the New York-Penn League at 2.32. Kingham has also gone at least five innings while allowing one or no runs in each of his last nine starts. Batavia will have left-hander Ryan Sheriff (0-1) on the mound.

MoChester brings rock-reggae to Docksider
Ray and Dave Davies of the Kinks. Liam and Noel Gallagher of Oasis. Chris and Rich Robinson of the Black Crowes.
The history of bands with brotherly bonds isn't exactly bright. Fortunately, MoChester's Jon and Brandon Sheffer can sing a different tune.
"We seem to get by. We found our common ground," Jon Sheffer said. "And we try to keep the fighting to a minimum in the van to keep the other players in the band playing with us."
He's joking. All four members, including bassist Ben Overmeyer and drummer Alex Melville, get along so well they may as well be quadruplets.
"We're very close. The other two guys are like brothers, too," Sheffer said. "We travel together all the time, so we're like a little family now."
Their good vibes spill into MoChester's music, which blends pop, ska and reggae influences into spirited, danceable songs. Sublime is a clear influence, but so are such artists as the Dave Matthews Band, Incubus, 311, O.A.R. and their original inspiration -- Motown.
Their band name derives from "Mo" for Motown and 'Chester, short for Rochester, N.Y., their home base.
"The Motown influence was mostly in our cover tunes, which is kind of where we based our start," Sheffer said. "We've (also) been writing stuff the whole time, but our drummer and our bass player have moved us more in the direction of rock and reggae-infused music.
"We still definitely try to keep the Motown influence as well," he added "We still play a bunch of those tunes. We're big fans of Stevie Wonder and the Temptations."
MoChester's latest songs still feature a bounce and irresistible lilt but hit harder rhythmically and rock harder. They're road-testing a few for their next album. "Lost and Found," released in 2013, emphasized their rock-reggae side.
"Our brand-new (song) is 'Far From Over,'" Sheffer said. "It's like more like rock-punk-pop rock," he said. "Another one, 'Catch,' is more straight-across reggae and dub."
MoChester plays a lot of shows outside Rochester, N.Y. On long trips, the group prefers mix CDs to entire CDs by one artist.
"We like to keep it eclectic and not listen to the same style. It gets repetitive," Sheffer said. "It kind of reflects our writing style. We like to hear all different genres of music happening."
Be prepared to bob your head, if not flat-out dance when MoChester tears into tunes such as "Crackerjack Tattoos" and "Saturday Night."
"We like to keep the crowd engaged and keep it high energy, so everyone pays attention to the music but still has a good time and we create a good vibe," Sheffer said.
Friday's gig is their first show in Erie since MoChester played during the last week of the Crooked I. They return about 2 feet away; the show is at Docksider.
"We're really pumped to come back to Erie," Sheffer said. "We always get a warm reception. People seem to enjoy it, and we're excited to meet new people."

Trouble-Free hiking boots Products Uncovered
vasque hiking boots These factors make them the first preference in case of boots provider. One can find a plethora of various types, colors, brands and other variations of women's waterproof hiking boots by doing an online search for them. How to Snowshoe:So you�ve layered up and dressed for the winter weather, you�ve got your gear and found a great spot to explore. Here's how you can be better prepared for a visit to one of America's natural wonders. The best means is to bend the boot between your hands as many times as your forearms can stand.
South Africa has two ideal and appealing walking safari options. There are many survival stories where the crisis could have been averted had they remembered to not leave their cell phone behind. Let's Go Shopping - Okay, so after you can't move the next morning, you pick yourself up. The uppers are made from full-grain leather and the inner boot is lined with Gore-Tex waterproof membranes which give excellent waterproofing features. An example of water turgor is a boat or a leaf floating on the surface of the water.
It is not necessary to bring everything from your kitchen and bedroom to have a comfortable condition. Depending on the steepness of the trails you will be walking on, there will be times when you need heavier shoes and others when lighter boots will be a more suitable option. Merrell is an outdoor lifestyle brand that offers a few fine features in its many men's hiking boots collections. They understand the mechanics of a good boot, and the connection between fit, comfort, support, flexibility, traction and durability which combine to ensure a great boot. Camping and hiking are often done in conjunction with other activities, such as picnicking, mountain climbing, fishing, kayaking, and canoeing.
So, these are the things you need to pay attention to when choosing a pair of hiking boots. The Merrell Proterra is available in many colorways for both Men and Women in low cut (Men's Proterra Sport and Women's Proterra VIM Sport) and in mid cut (Men's Proterra Mid Sport and Women's Proterra VIM Mid Sport). Anyone who is involved in vigorous outdoor activity or jobs will need a stable platform under their feet. The hiking boots had to come up in a search for " women's waterproof hiking boots". Most of their boots would be catergorized as mountaineering boots rather than hiking boots as most of their designs and features are better adapted for climbing and mountaineering rather than trail hiking though they do carry a smaller selection of trail running shoes.

Seniors struggle to find first victory
Late opponent runs in both games dealt the Gothenburg Seniors a pair of losses to open the American Legion baseball season.The Melons battled both Holdrege and Cozad until the late innings, but fell as a result of those late-inning rallies.
Gothenburg hopes to get back on track this week with a busy schedule. The Melons played Ogallala Tuesday and will host Broken Bow on Wednesday (tonight), Holdrege on Saturday and Overton on Wednesday, June 5.
Gothenburg travels to Cambridge on Sunday.
7-run 7th squashes Melons
Cozad exploded for seven runs on six hits in the seventh inning to turn the tables on Gothenburg 8-3 on Friday.
The Melons had nursed a 2-1 lead for three innings but couldn't hold it. Gothenburg's Ben Tiedemann went the distance on the mound and held Cozad to just two hits until tiring in the final frame.
Levi Walker's aggressive play gave the Melons a one-run lead after two. He walked and stole second before stealing third and racing home on a catcher's errant throw.
Dillon Budd doubled to start a two-out rally for Cozad in the third. The next batter singled to drive him home.
In the bottom of the third, a bunt single by Justin Larson—sandwiched between two walks—loaded the bases. Walker singled to drive in a pair and the Melons led 2-1.
That's where the score stood for three scoreless innings.
Things quickly changed in the top of the seventh. Cozad's offense came alive with seven runs—three after two outs.
Gothenburg managed only one baserunner in the bottom of the inning.
Larson had a pair of hits for the Melons.
Tiedemann fanned nine batters while walking five and giving up 10 hits.

Gothenburg answered three innings later when Jett Seimer walked and eventually scored on a passed ball.
First National broke the 1-1 tie in the bottom of the fifth pushing two runs across thanks to two walks and an error.
The margin grew to 4-1 when Holdrege benefited from a bases-loaded walk.
Levi Walker cut the scoring gap to just one run with a two-out single with bases filled on the seventh. A ground out ended the rally and the game.
Walker had the lone hit in the game for Gothenburg. Nine walks gave the Melons some scoring chances in the game.

GOODRICH, Michigan — The Goodrich village board requested it's village administrator's resignation at this morning's meeting.
The request came during a special meeting that was scheduled the day before from the requests of board members Doug McAbee and Phil Jackson, both of whom were elected in November.
The board requested village administrator Jakki Sidge's resignation on or before Feb. 21 and that she receive severance pay. If she doesn't resign by then, the board directed the village's attorney to send Sidge a 30-day notice of termination.
"Sidge refuses to recognize the majority of this council," said President Patricia Wartella.
Sidge was not allowed to comment during the meeting. She declined to comment about the situation afterward to the media.
The request, which passed with votes in favor from McAbee, Jackson and Wartella, received numerous objections from the audience and board members Richard Horton and Pete Morey.
Horton questioned what the board's plans were for after Sidge's resignation. At which time Wartella said that question was premature.
Sidge has worked for the village for 20 years — 15 of them in her current position.In addition for Sidge's resignation, the board also requested that Sidge make her computer available to copy the hard drive and for her not to delete any e-mails.
It also requested "for keys to any and all locked doors, cabinets in the village of Goodrich administrative building, Department of Public Works garage, DPW vehicles, and DPW office(s)."
Wartella, who took over as village president in November, is facing a second recall attempt since her appointment.
The recall attempts were sparked after her first order of business was to fire the village attorney while the village is in the middle of a lawsuit.

Show app review rating worldwide!
I understand that it makes sense to only show app reviews only in those countrys were they come from. E.g. a German review should only be shown in Germany (and maybe in Switzerland and Austria). What I don't understand is, that you also showing the app rating in countries, were they come from.
For example: An app has 20 ratings. 15 from Germany (all with 4 stars), 1 from USA (1 star) and 4 from France (5 stars)
If you now open the app in the Windows Phone Store from Germany, you will see a total app review rating of 15 (4 stars). If you open the app in the US Windows Phone Store, it shows only 1 rating with 1 star. In France it shows 4 ratings with 5 stars and in all other countries it shows 0 ratings!
The total rating should be equal worldwide! :-)

@Cliff Simpkins: Yes it is for the consumers. Please check out how reviews are displayed in Google Play Store by language and learn more about this suggestion.
Anonymous commented
Additionally the store should share reviews within the same language, e.g. reviews from Gemany should be visible in Austria and in Switzerland, too. The same for English. For me there is no reason why British users shall not see the reviews from US users. This will improve the attractivity of an app in other countries, Most likely in smaller countries like Austria.
Anonymous commented
I totally support this I live in Kenya and windows phone adoption is really low, 80% of the apps have zero reviews. I just recently got a windows phone device after switching from android and the reviews in the playstore were universal
Neal Gabriel commented
I totally agree. Thus the app will be getting more downloads worldwide. The more the downloads, the more we get encouraged to build new apps for windows phone / store.
Sascha commented
Sorry, of course I meant for the consumer. This is very important for a developer, because users not often install apps which have no reviews or one bad review. The don't know and don't see that the app already has a lot of good reviews in other countries.
Is this a request for the developer to be able to see the reviews from all countries (via dev portal / dashboard)? Or for the consumer (via the Store experience(s))?
Robb Heidelmeier commented
Yes this would be a great Idea!

I think this article brings up a good point. We might not see it much as technologists (who generally are in high demand in the global workforce, and the demand is only increasing), but the economy is hurting and I don't see how it can just get better by itself.
Are we to blame? I think so, to some extent. Improved technology and automation puts people out of work. This is why companies can make record profits and still lay off people, they aren't laying people because they have to, but because they can. We want more automation and efficient processes, but what is bad is the increasing difficulty of some to make a living, and the modern economy distributes wealth via human labor which is increasingly becoming less valuable. So how can we fix it?
