Rated 4.6 out of 5�by 180 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by TfromNY Very comfortable This is a very comfortable sports bra that looks nice under a tank top. My only issue was that an XL barely covered me. If your chest is on the larger side I would be sure to try this on before purchasing it. May 12, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Tiffany580 Great Purchase! I bought this for my daughter to play fast pitch softball in. She loves it and it works exactly as we hoped it would. April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by NamasteNancy Best Sports Bra For Me I am thrilled with this sports bra. I am a 34G and thus, always have trouble finding a bra that A) fits and B) is comfortable and C) doesn't look like I am wearing a piece of armor. I bought this in an XL, and even though I am a 34, it fits snugly enough to keep 'the girls' in check. I have since ordered 5 more, since I will probably live in these this summer. Disclaimer, I don't do any high-impact stuff anymore, mainly just do yoga and low-impact / outdoors stuff. April 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Lacy87 Great Fit This bra is so comfortable! It has a great fit and really stays in place. I love it. April 7, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5�by Cls Not soft or stretchy I am a 34 c and ordered both the small and the medium. Tried the medium first and it was ridiculously tight. Almost couldn't get it off. I am 5'9" 127 lbs so it's just a really tight fit. Sent both back April 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by mel the best best sports bra i have ever worn!!!! i recommend it to all this bra is the best way to go. trust me March 31, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5�by Mel Awesome This is my second purchase and it fits comfortably. I would recommend getting a size up--I am a small and normally get a size up for this particular bra March 15, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mange Love this! This fits well and is very comfortable. I wear it multiple times a week running and have had no issues. March 10, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Erin73 So comfortable As a small chested sporty gal I don't require a lot of bells and whistles for my sports bra--in fact less is more as far as I'm concerned. that's why I love the UA Seamless Essential Sports Bra. So soft, with comfortable compression and straps that don't dig or pull. I wore this in my Kettlebell class that included Pliyo and had no discomfort. March 4, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by sbs77 Sizing is Off I originally ordered a medium and it was too small. I returned it and then ordered a large size. The large felt as if it was nearly the same size as the medium. Otherwise, I believe it is good quality. March 2, 2015

Take something as simply as "vendor-id"; you might have >something like... Something that I have found in processing data from our ERP system is that certain terms *do* have real-world namespace collisions that need to be resolved by either messing with names, using namespaces or using some other method of determining usage. For example, there are "SalesOrder" and "PurchaseOrder" fields in a number of tables in the database, and some of them are "our" numbers and some are the numbers provided by the customer. Now, admittedly, in this case all of the data is basically under my control for in-house usage, but if I'm playing with data either from outside the company or mixed internally and externally-generated, it is sort of handy to have some kind of notification that "PurchaseOrder" is *our* purchase order or *their* purchase order without having to parse the whole document and find out. I'm certainly not up to speed enough on any of the debates to say one method is better than another, as I'm just getting seriously involved in using XML around the business, but I do know that there's certainly a possibility of a real collision happening here. There are a number of other fields with the same kind of issues in our ERP system, and I can imagine that other systems would have similar "inbound vs. outbound" problems with similar names.

Japanese herb for hot flashes fails in U.S. trial
Jul 22, 2011, 11:51 a.m.
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - An herbal remedy widely used in Japan to ease menopause symptoms failed to show the same benefits in a clinical trial of U.S. women, researchers report.
The study looked at the effects of keishi-bukuryo-gan, a mix of cinnamon bark, peach pit and several other botanicals that is also known as known as TU-025.
Long used in traditional Japanese medicine, the herbal remedy is now regulated as a prescription drug in Japan, where gynecologists commonly recommend it for treating hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause.
So researchers were interested in whether benefits would be seen in U.S. women as well.
The authors randomly assigned 178 postmenopausal women to take either keishi-bukuryo-gan tablets or a placebo every day for three months. Tokyo-based Tsumura & Company provided the herb and partially funded the study.
In the end, the researchers found that while women on the herb saw improvements in hot flashes, sleep problems and other symptoms, so did women on the placebo.
And there was no clear advantage of the herbal product, the team reports in the journal Menopause.
Of women in the placebo group, hot flash frequency and severity dropped by a significant degree in 34 percent. The same was true of 40 percent of women taking a lower dose of keishi-bukuryo-gan (7.5 grams per day) and 38 percent using a higher dose (12.5 grams).
The differences among the three groups were not statistically meaningful, according to the researchers, led by Dr. Gregory A. Plotnikoff, who directs the Institute for Health and Healing at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis.
What's more, 20 percent of the women using keishi-bukuryo-gan reported diarrhea as a side effect. That was unexpected, Plotnikoff's team says. Plotnikoff did not respond to Reuters Health's requests for comment.
In Japan, a decade of post-marketing surveillance of the product has suggested that side effects are rare.
Of more than 700,000 women who've used the herbal remedy, an estimated 0.004 percent have had an "adverse event," Plotnikoff and his colleagues note in their report.
It's not clear why this trial of U.S. women failed to show the benefits that have been seen in Japanese women, according to the researchers.
But they point out that, in Japan, keishi-bukuryo-gan is used as part of the traditional medicine system known as Kampo, which considers each individual patient's "constitution."
Based on that system, the researchers note, keishi-bukuryo-gan is best for women who normally tend to feel cold (when they're not having hot flashes or night sweats), and are deemed to have stagnant qi (pronounced "chee"). Qi is a concept in traditional Chinese and Japanese medicine that refers to the flow of energy through the body.
In this study, women were included if they'd been having frequent or severe hot flashes -- and not based on any constitutional factors.
Plotnikoff's team speculates that this could have something to do with the lack of benefit overall, and possibly the side effect of diarrhea seen in some women.
Right now, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is considered the most effective therapy for severe hot flashes. But many women are interested in non-hormonal treatments, given the risks of HRT.

What Is Bleeding Time?
Bleeding time is a test used to determine how quickly your blood clots to stop you from bleeding. The test involves making small, superficial cuts on your skin similar to light scratches.
The test is a basic assessment of how well your blood platelets work to form clots. Platelets are tiny cell fragments that circulate in your blood. They are the first cells to react to a blood vessel injury. They seal off the wound to prevent more blood from escaping.
Why a Bleeding Time Test Is Performed
You may need to undergo a bleeding test if you've been experiencing bleeding that won't stop, especially after receiving small incisions, punctures, or cuts.
Abnormal results of a bleeding time test could indicate:
- acquired platelet function defects—conditions that develop after birth and affect how well your blood platelets work. Your body may produce too many or too few platelets or they may not work properly
- blood vessel defect—any condition that affects how well your blood vessels transport blood through your body
- hereditary platelet function defects—conditions present at birth that affect how well your platelets function. Hemophilia is an example
- primary thrombocythemia—a condition in which your bone marrow creates too many platelets
- thrombocytopenia—a condition that causes your body to produce too few platelets
- Von Willebrand's disease—the most common hereditary condition that affects how your blood coagulates (clots)
How to Prepare for a Bleeding Time Test
Tell your doctor about any medications you are taking, including prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, and vitamin and mineral supplements. Some medications (especially aspirin) can affect how well your blood clots.
Your doctor may instruct you to stop taking your medication a few days before your test. Follow your doctor's instructions, but do not stop taking any medication unless your doctor tells you to do so.
On the day of your test, wear a short-sleeve shirt so that the technician can access your arm.
How a Bleeding Time Test Is Performed
A nurse or technician will perform the test. He or she will put antiseptic on your arm to minimize the risk of infection.
A pressure cuff will be inflated around your upper arm. Next, the technician will make two small cuts on your lower arm. These will be deep enough to cause slight bleeding.
The cuff will be taken off your arm and the technician will blot the cuts with paper every 30 seconds until the bleeding stops. The technician will record the time it takes for you to stop bleeding and will then bandage the cuts.
Risks of a Bleeding Time Test
Anytime your skin is broken, you run the risk of excessive bleeding and infection. Since the purpose of the test is to make you bleed, some bleeding is a certainty. However, because the test scratches are so shallow, the risk of excessive bleeding is minimal and complications are extremely rare.
After a Bleeding Time Test
Your doctor will be checking how long it takes for your blood to clot. This can help the doctor determine if have a bleeding disorder, such as hemophilia or von Willebrand's disease.
Normal bleeding time is between one and eight minutes. Results outside of that range could indicate a platelet defect and will require further testing.

I've been wondering for years when this product would be released. I have a beta DVD iso laying around from some time last year. Looking back at Paul Thurott's "Vista 2005" page, he notes how he started posting about Vista back in January 2002 about features he's already seen or heard of in Vista. That article also notes that Vista was supposed to ship late 2004. Now about a year and a half late, they're saying its not supposed to ship until 2007.
A PCWorld article writes about how Windows XP was planned to release on October 25, 2001; SP2 for XP was released on August 25, 2004. This means we haven't had a new OS from Microsoft in 5 years, and no major updates in one and a half years.
As far as mylsef (a regular user) and most Microsoft employees are concerned, this is a horrible life cycle. Windows Vista should have been voted #1 in Wired Mag's vaporware of the year. It made #4, but should be at the top.
On a Microsoft blog, employees are calling for a mass firing of the leadership, and rightly so. They're now going to miss the holiday season again. PC makers are suffering since nobody will be buying new computers with Vista this holiday season. They're not only hurting themselves and PC makers, but lowering the company morale, and turning consumers away.
Will Microsoft make it? I'm not so sure. I think they've gotten too big and with poor leadership are inefficent. Their product base is too large and poorly coded. If they could write a program that was secure and didn't have large holes like the current exploit in Internet Explorer, they might have time to spend developing (and completing) new products. Thats hard to do with vulnerabilities always being reported.

Comments Thread For: Kevin Satchell dismisses Butler talk, Aims for Euro glory
Following a hard fought win against Luke Wilton last weekend, the undefeated British and Commonwealth flyweight champion Kevin Satchell rubbished speculation over a fight with super-flyweight Paul Butler.
Satchell is instead targeting a shot at European titlist Silvio Olteanu, and dismissed the links with Butler as pure hearsay.
Like my manager Steve Wood said: why would either of us move weights when we are both doing so well? asked Satchell. Theres absolutely no truth in it. [Click Here To Read More]

There's absolutlly no point of a Satchell/Butler fight right now. Satch is right to go after the EBU title & try to secure a Lonsdale belt out-right. I just wish he'd fight outside of Liverpool a bit more often!

BRUSSELS — The eurozone slipped deeper than expected into recession in the final three months of last year after its largest economies, Germany and France, shrank at the end of a wretched year for the region.
It marked the currency bloc's first full year in which no quarter produced growth, extending back to 1995. For the year as a whole, gross domestic product (GDP) fell 0.5%. Economic output in the 17-country region fell 0.6% in the fourth quarter, statistics office Eurostat said on Thursday, following a 0.1% output drop in the third.
The quarter-on-quarter drop was the steepest since the first quarter of 2009 and more severe than the average forecast of a 0.4% drop in a Reuters poll of 61 economists.
Within the zone, only Estonia and Slovakia grew in the past quarter, although there are no figures available yet for Ireland, Greece, Luxembourg, Malta and Slovenia.
The big economies set the tone. Germany contracted 0.6% in the quarter, official data showed, marking its worst performance since the global financial crisis was raging in 2009. France's 0.3% fall was also slightly worse than expectations.
Worryingly for Berlin, it was export performance — the engine of its economy — that did most of the damage, declining significantly more than imports, although economists expect it to bounce back quickly.
The euro hit a session low against the dollar after the weaker than forecast German reading and dropped again after the release of full eurozone figures.
Back revisions to France's figures showed its output fell 0.1% in each of the first and second quarters, meaning it has experienced one bout of recession in the past 12 months.
While the European Central Bank's pledge to do whatever it takes to save the euro has taken the heat out of the bloc's debt crisis, its stronger members are in the grip of an economic malaise that could push debt-cutting drives off track.
French Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault acknowledged for the first time on Wednesday that weak growth was putting his government's deficit goal for this year out of reach.

John Paul goes beyond the spiritual disciplines and what many call the life of the mystics to teach the rudiments of what a spiritual life would include when it is mature. John Paul exposes the student to many untaught principles that should be common in our lives today, but sadly are not. In so doing he creates a hunger for the spiritual disciplines and prayer that will propel the student to seek in an ever increasing and consistent relationship with the Father - where relationship becomes more important than experience.
Some of the topics covered are:
The difference between living a supernatural life and simply having a supernatural experience.
The study and understanding of the three lights of creation
Developing habits and mindsets that allow for the assistance of heavenly agents.
Interaction of humans and angels and a description of heavenly beings.
The extent of God's omniscience and deity and how to keep from limiting God's actions in your life.
Portals in the Bible and whether they exist today.
The truth about the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven.
What are demons and fallen angels?
Identifying the multiple levels of darkness.
An explanation of the power and spiritual authority of demons and Satan.
The inter-dimensional relationship between heaven and earth for our good
How to create space for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit
Key principles to cultivating "eyes that see."
How does the "Mystery of Prayer" work?
Why was the coming of the Kingdom important to Jesus?

Ottawa police say a man who entered Justin Trudeau's home earlier this month will not be charged.
Police say they're satisfied that the intoxicated 19-year-old wandered into the wrong house by mistake, believing he was at a friend's residence, and played down the fact that he left a note near a collection of knives.
Trudeau was out of town when the incident happened, but his wife and children were asleep upstairs.
The police say an individual came forward after they released video footage of a suspect.
They say the man has been cautioned and the case is closed.
Nothing was taken in the incident, although a note was left — alongside a collection of knives — saying doors should be locked at night.

NONGOVERNMENTAL organisations (NGOs) and activist groups expressed dismay yesterday at the slow progress at the United Nations (UN) climate change talks in Durban that have brought together nearly 200 nations in a bid to pull together an agreement on how to ward off damaging climate change.
International Relations and Co-operation Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane has urged negotiating teams at this year's Congress of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP-17), of which she is president, to finalise all but contentious political issues before ministers and heads of state arrive in Durban next week. However, teams only really got down to the nitty-gritty yesterday.
The Climate Action Network, a coalition of more than 700 NGOs in 95 countries, said it was concerning that little real work had been done.
"We need to finalise a post- 2012 framework," Oxfam's Kelly Dent said at a media briefing in the Durban International Convention Centre, where the talks are being held.
Ms Dent was referring to the Kyoto Protocol, the world's first and only legally binding deal on reducing the emission of gases linked to average global warming, the first commitment period of which ends on December 31 next year. The key divide was between nations that wanted agreement on a legally binding deal that would be operational before 2020, and those that wanted one that became operational after 2020.
World Wide Fund for Nature Central Africa representative Raymond Lumbuenamo said Africa had "for centuries" been subject to decisions made on its behalf and it would fight hard to ensure there was a decision on a Kyoto Protocol second commitment period at COP-17.
"For us a lot is riding on this," he said.
Many scientists argue Africa, which contributes least to greenhouse gas emissions, will suffer the most from global warming.

Well my husband is allergic to cats and I really wanted a cat badly. So he agreed to let me get one. I originally tried to get a simese cat thinking the very short hair would not be so bad for him, but the breeder I was trying to get the simese from would not return any of my calls. So I had to do research on more cats, and then I stumbled upon the siberian breed (Hypoallergenic- ). And it was a perfect match for my husband because his asthma would not flair up. So I found Tinka in Colorado and she was shipped to me. I'm a happy owner, my husband has not had one allergic reaction yet.

Jill Bowen-Gardner, Class of 1990
Noted for her effortlessly produced, rich voice (Opera News), American soprano Jill Gardner is swiftly establishing herself among todays leading operatic heroines. This powerhouse soprano (Syracuse New Times) continues to garner national praise for her sparkling personality (Coral Gables Gazette), her lustrous, golden soprano and riveting stage presence (Rochester Democrat and Chronicle) and for her commitment, passion and ability to convey vocally the slightest nuance of emotion, making for gripping theater (Opera News). Equally praised for her acting as well as her singing, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser recently observed of her performances of Tosca,
the pace picks up when soprano Jill Gardner sweeps in. Gardner is dynamite, in voice and acting, and her performance in this very demanding role is worth the price of a ticket all by itself.
This season, Ms. Gardner will perform her signature role of Tosca in her debut with Lyric Opera Baltimore and in her return to Mill City Summer Opera in Minneapolis, MN. She will also make her role debut in Puccinis Il Trittico as Georgetta and Suor Angelica with Opera Carolina. On the concert stage, she sings Gala Concerts for Opera Carolina and Greensboro Opera as well as a Holiday Pops Concert with the Binghamton Philharmonic.
For the 2012-2013 season, Ms. Gardner sang the title role of Tosca in her debut with Opera Carolina as well as Arizona Opera and Hawaii Opera Theater. She joined the roster of the Washington National Opera, covering the title role of Manon Lescaut in the spring and made her debut with the Charlotte Symphony in a POP-UP Opera Concert celebrating the music of Verdi, Wagner and Mascagni.
During the 2011-2012 season the soprano returned to Arizona Opera and Tri-Cities Opera in the title role of Puccinis Madama Butterfly and reprised the role of Nedda in I Pagliacci in her debut with Michigan Opera Theater as well as for the inaugural season of Mill City Summer Opera in Minneapolis, MN. On the concert stage, she marked her debut with the Wichita Symphony in Beethovens Mass in C Major.
In the 2010-2011 season, Ms. Gardner made her celebrated return to Boston Lyric Opera in the title role of Tosca as well as making her company debuts with Arizona Opera in the role of Liù in Turandot, Opera Grand Rapids in her role debut of Manon in Manon Lescaut and Eugene Opera as Musetta in La Bohème. This season also marked Ms. Gardners role debut of Leonora in Verdis Il Trovatore with Piedmont Opera.
Over the past few seasons, the young soprano marked her Lyric Opera of Chicago debut performing Nedda in I Pagliacci and covering Mimi in La Bohème, her Florida Grand Opera debut as Musetta in La Bohème, her Boston Lyric Opera debut as Mimi in La Bohème, her Madison Opera debut as Marguerite in Faust, as well as performing Countess Charlotte Malcolm in Sondheims A Little Night Music in her debut with Hawaii Opera Theater where she returned in the following season as Helmwige in Die Walküre.
In concert, she made her Kennedy Center Debut with the Washington Chorus, under the baton of Julian Wachner, in a concert called The Essential Puccini, performed Beethovens 9th Symphony and Vaughan Williams Serenade to Music with the Syracuse Symphony, Brahms Requiem with the Binghamton Philharmonic and Verdis Requiem with the Tower Arts Series of Dallas Highland Park United Methodist Church under the baton of Craig Jessop.
Additional engagements from recent seasons include a return to the Glimmerglass Opera as Eurydice in a new production of Orpheus in the Underworld, Margaret Johnson in the first opera house performances in The Light in the Piazza with Piedmont Opera, Hanna Glawari in The Merry Widow with the Syracuse Opera, the title role in Susannah with New York Opera Projects, Donna Anna in Don Giovanni, Mimi in La Bohème as well as the title role in Puccinis Tosca with the Mercury Opera Rochester, and multiple performances with the Tri-Cities Opera including Violetta in La Traviata and Countess in Le Nozze di Figaro. Ms. Gardner also performed the role of Madama Erlecca in Cimarosas Li Sposi per Accidenti at Studio Lirico in Cortona, Italy.
A native of Winston-Salem NC, Ms. Gardner received a Master of Music degree in vocal performance from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and a Bachelor of Music degree in piano performance from Centenary College of Louisiana. She is also a graduate of the Glimmerglass Opera Young American Artists Program and the Resident Artists Training Program of Tri-Cities Opera in Binghamton, NY. She has been a Southeast Regional Winner of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, a recipient of the Richard F. Gold Career Grant of the Shoshana FoundationNYC, a Special Opportunity Award from the New York Foundation of the Arts and an Emerging Artist Grant from the WInston-Salem/Forsyth County Division of the North Carolina Arts Council.

WHS student follows her dreams
by Deborah Stone
Features Writer
Woodinville High School junior Cassie Knapp has two main passions in her life: art and Scotland. Her love of art started early as a young child when she remembers drawing as her favorite pastime.
"I would draw all the time," explains Knapp, "and I liked especially to copy comic book characters. This actually taught me how to draw people and then I applied these skills to sketching members of my family, friends and complete strangers."
Over the years, Knapp has entered numerous competitions and has won various awards for her sketches, including the Northshore PTA sponsored Reflections Contest, Woodinville's Teen Art Show and a Northshore School District art show. Her work often reflects issues that she is grappling with at the time.
"In ninth grade," explains Knapp, "I was having issues with religion and entered a drawing of a man carrying a woman out of flames. This had symbolic meaning to me. I then burnt the bottom part of the paper to give it a special effect. The picture won first place in the Reflections contest that year."
Knapp's favorite subject matter is people, as she finds them fascinating to draw, with so many unique subjects readily available to her.
She prefers watercolor, but also uses oil paints in her work. Her inspiration comes from one of her favorite artists, John Singer Sergeant, because in her opinion, he is a master portrait painter.
"It seems like no one does realistic portraits anymore," comments Knapp. "Sergeant's work is incredible. I really admire his paintings and by studying his work, I have learned a lot about drawing people. I am basically self-taught when it comes to drawing, so having great models to study has really helped me learn."
Last March, Knapp was one of 42 students chosen from the Puget Sound area to attend a one week art program at Centrum in Port Townsend. She says, "We lived and breathed art each day and it was such a great experience. I got so much out of it. I hope to do it again this year."
Getting paid for her work is not an entirely new concept for this young woman. She has painted designs and murals on people's walls and has also worked at Nordstrom doing portraits of people after they have had makeovers in the cosmetics department.
Recently, though, she moved to a different level in the art world.
She received word that Washington State University was interested in having her do portraits of the university's deans to line the walls in campus administration offices. "Bill Fassett, one of the deans," explains Knapp, "used to be my neighbor and he knew I had done portrait work before. He asked me to do a sample and send it in for the university committee to look at.
"şI did a drawing of Allen White, a past President of WSU. The committee accepted it and commissioned me to do pencil and paper sketches of the seven deans." Knapp is extremely excited and thrilled with this job, as it is an honor to receive a commission of such kind.
She says, "I know I am on the right path when others recognize my work in this way. It just reinforces my feelings about where I'm headed." Knapp plans to study art at the prestigious Mackintosh School of Art in Glasgow, Scotland, when she graduates from WHS next year.
Her love of Scotland and the Scottish culture is deep and stems from numerous trips to that area of the world.
"We had a Scottish man living in our basement for awhile," explains Knapp. "He told me so much about the country and the culture. Finally, I went there with him and fell in love with the place and the people. I knew then that I had been born in the wrong country. I want to live there and paint. That is my dream and a goal I will make come true."

A few questions about Spot Finned Spiny Eels (Macrognathus aculeatus)
I have been keeping a yellow Spot Finned Spiny Eel (Macrognathus aculeatus) for a year. Could I keep 2 of them one male and one female each?
there are no objections in an appropriately large (above 300 liters) and well structured aquarium with plenty of hideaways near the bottom. Soft bottom ground (sand!), into which the fish can dig themselves, is important. It is individually different how often they do this. However, when they are frightened in an "open area", even specimens that are not shy otherwise may hide themselves so completely in under a second (!) that only the front part of the head remains visible.
Nobody could yet tell me the gender differences.
This is indeed difficult to tell with spiny eels. It mostly can be seen by the gonopore in adult specimens (best by direct comparison); that allows recognizing the genders in almost all species. Furthermore, female spiny eels are slightly thicker than males.
Are spiny eels livebearing, or do they lay eggs?
All spiny eel species are egglayers.
Best regards

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's teenage son, Christopher – who was hospitalized after being injured in a boogie boarding accident last week – is going home.
"Blessed to be able to take Christopher out of the hospital last night," Shriver Tweeted Tuesday. "What a feeling of relief to know that he's going to be fine. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. The whole family, especially Christopher, felt your love."
The former governor of California, 63, Tweeted a similar sentiment Monday night. "Thanks for all your support for Christopher," he wrote. "It means a lot to me & to him. He's doing much better & we'll have him back at full speed soon." On Tuesday, he added, "I knew Christopher couldn't be stopped!"
Shriver, 55, who filed for divorce from Schwarzenegger earlier this month after the actor's public admission that he fathered a child with the couple's longtime housekeeper, has stayed at the hospital with her son since Friday, when he was admitted to the hospital with a collapsed lung and broken bones.
Schwarzenegger has also visited Christopher regularly. "Arnold is a great father," a source close to the family told PEOPLE. "He and Maria will always come together when it comes to supporting and loving their children."
"I will forever be grateful to the amazing doctors, nurses and hospital staff in the ICU who helped my son," Maria added. "We were very lucky. Many patients and families we met have been there so long and have no end in sight. I pray for their recovery."

To the Editor. —
Stern et al,1 in the February 1991 issue of the Archives, described a syndrome of neurologic and neuropsychological deficits that they believed to be associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. They reported that "HIV-positive men performed significantly worse on tests of memory, executive function, attention, and abstract reasoning.... even when only HIV-positive men who are completely medically asymptomatic are considered." We believe that this conclusion is premature on the basis of the results presented in their article.One potential source of bias in the article by Stern et al is the large number of men who reported that English was not their first language. In the medically asymptomatic HIV-positive group, 12 (24%) of the 49 subjects reported that English was not their first language, whereas in the HIV-negative control group, only two (2%) of 84 were nonnative English speakers. The percentages in the other

Today's column is being written the old-fashioned way, by flickering candlelight on a sheet of college-ruled notebook paper, thanks to saucy Flossie and the power outage she caused.
By the way, how does one get on the committee that gives names to natural disasters? I'd like to volunteer my services or, at least, my advice. I really feel that tropical storms and hurricanes should have names that sound menacing or sinister, in order for the general public to take them seriously. We should assign the Disney folks to the task. Wouldn't you be concerned - and therefore take the appropriate precautions - if you heard that Tropical Storm Cruella was coming? Or Hurricane Maleficent? Flossie sounds like a goodhearted saloon girl, like Miss Kitty in "Gunsmoke." Miss Flossie's comin', y'all! Git out the welcome wagon!
But I digress, which, I'm discovering, is easier to do with pen and paper than on a keyboard. I suppose it's because I've conditioned myself to see computers as work tools. Cursive writing puts me into a relaxed, rambling state of mind, sort of like a stream of consciousness exercise.
Nowadays I rarely put pen to paper, except to sign my name. I used to take a few minutes each night to scribble in my journal, but since I began "Sharing Mana'o" two and a half years ago, I've made only half a dozen entries. For the most part, the column has satisfied my desire to chronicle thoughts and feelings; it's like a semiprivate weekly diary. In fact, I sometimes feel guilty accepting a paycheck for doing something so enjoyable and therapeutic. Don't tell that to The Maui News, though. The guilt is fleeting, and I do need the money.
I also need to get back into the habit of journaling. Having kept a diary intermittently since the age of 10, I know that, for me, it's a necessary habit. Over the years, I've filled dozens of books with my rants and raves, fantasies and fears. Writing in longhand seems to release the emotional floodgates, and the words just burst onto the paper.
Perhaps it comes from being an only child with no siblings in whom to confide. Although a couple of friends have told me that my idea of preteen sisters giggling and gossiping under the sheets at bedtime is highly romanticized, and that they would have happily traded their sisters for my diary.
One of the most traumatic experiences of my tween years occurred when several male classmates got their grubby little hands on my diary. They weren't bad boys. They weren't even the kolohe type, really. But they did grab my diary and read it. I was mortified. The boy who sheepishly returned it to me had been the object of my 7th-grade dreams, described in great detail and purple ink on those pages. At the time, I found no comfort in seeing that he was just as embarrassed as I was. Now that I look back on it, it was pretty funny. And it taught me something.
I burned that diary and started a new one, choosing my words and topics carefully. But I quickly realized that self-censorship defeats the purpose of a diary, so I reverted to pouring my heart out with abandon. And I found a better place to hide my diary.
My grown-up writings are even more candid, so I've added a regular ritual to my journaling habit. Every so often, I go back and read what I've written and then tear out the pages that I wouldn't want anyone to see. That's what I learned; the value of a diary is in the writing of it, not the reading.
But I've digressed yet again. And now the lights are back on - mahalo, Maui Electric crews! - so I'm going to transcribe this chicken-scratch into an emailable version for the editors now. Then I'm going to pick up the pen again and write a few pages in my journal. If I can remember where I hid it.

Now & Then Teen Idols
One Hit It Big in the '80s Thanks to 'Jessie's Girl,' the Other Was a 2008 American Idol Star. They Both Know a Thing or Two About Screaming Fans
Age: 60. Pop star and General Hospital heartthrob, now guest-starring in Californication.
Age: 18. American Idol runner-up; his single "Crush" has sold more than 900,000 worldwide.
What are female fans throwing up onstage at you these days?
SPRINGFIELD: I don't get as many training bras as I used to get, but I'll get underwear.
ARCHULETA: They mostly respect the way I am, so they throw teddy bears. And little bracelets. But mostly just stuffed toys.
SPRINGFIELD: That doesn't stop, by the way; I still get stuffed toys.
What about fan mail—what's that like?
ARCHULETA: Most of the time, they're really nice and friendly. Even on American Idol they said my fans weren't as weird or bad as other people's. I thought that was neat.
SPRINGFIELD: I've had fans put private detectives on me to find out what I'm doing.
ARCHULETA: What? That's weird.
What was the moment like when you first realized that you were a musical idol?
SPRINGFIELD: My first thrill was playing "Jessie's Girl" live and hearing the audience react. It was at a Beach Boys show on the Fourth of July. It was wonderful. The audience started cheering as soon as we played the riff.
ARCHULETA: For me, the thrill is just that people actually like it. It's neat to see people react to your songs the same way that you would react to someone else's songs.
What was your first big purchase?
SPRINGFIELD: I was never into buying stuff. I'm not a car freak.... I just finally bought a house. I was nicknamed Scrooge.
ARCHULETA: I don't spend any money.
SPRINGFIELD: I'd rather look at the numbers piling up.
ARCHULETA: Yeah, yeah. If at some point I need that money, I'll have it there. What if an emergency came up?
SPRINGFIELD: Sensible boy.

Hepatitis C Support Group Looking for Members
People with Hepatitis C, their family members, and others who are interested in learning more about Hepatitis C, are invited to join the informational support group of University Hospital's Liver Gallbladder Pancreas Center and the American Liver Foundation. The monthly meetings will be led by physicians who will present accurate, up to date information about Hepatitis C. A nurse will assist in leading a group discussion following each presentation. Topics of the discussions will be selected by meeting attendees.
The first meeting will be held Wednesday, April 29, 6:30 p.m., at the Marley Education Center, 736 Irving Avenue, Syracuse in the Community Room 208. Attendees do not need to join the group to attend this meeting. John Hvozda, Esq. will discuss legal topics involving Hepatitis C, such as obtaining life insurance, medical coverage, disability and explaining the Family and Medical Leave Act. Dr. Borys Buniak of University Hospital will discuss the medical aspects of Hepatitis C.
Hepatitis C is a serious form of liver disease, affecting about 4 million Americans. More than 150,000 people become infected by this virus each year in the United States alone. One can catch the disease and not know it for several years. Many patients are identified after giving blood for routine blood testing, blood donation drives and when applying for life insurance. About 85 percent of the patients with Hepatitis C virus infection go on to suffer from chronic hepatitis.
The most common symptom of this ailment is fatigue. If left untreated, it can cause scarring of the liver (cirrhosis) and an increased chance of liver cancer. Chronic hepatitis C is currently the leading cause of liver transplantation in the United States. Significant
liver damage from this infection may occur over a 20 year period, yet with alcohol use this process becomes accelerated. Thus far, treatment is not very successful, but emerging new therapies are encouraging. Development of vaccines are not anticipated within the
near future. The virus has the ability to mutate rapidly making it difficult to develop an effective vaccine which promotes lasting immunity.
For more information about the Hepatitis C Support Group or the next program, call (315) 464-9175.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance takes the renowned Metal Gear franchise into exciting new territory by focusing on delivering an all-new action experience unlike anything that has come before.. Combining world-class development teams at Kojima Productions and PlatinumGames, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance brings two of the world's most respected teams together with a common goal of providing players with a fresh synergetic experience that combines the best elements of pure action and epic storytelling, all within the expansive MG universe. The game introduces Raiden as the central character; a child soldier transformed into a half-man, half-machine cyborg ninja, equipped with a high-frequency katana blade and a soul fueled by revenge.
Zavvi UK Exclusive Limited Edition Includes:
In the near future, cyborg technology has become commonplace throughout society. Three years have passed since the collapse of the Patriots system that had been secretly controlling the global power balance from the shadows. However, peace remains elusive. The dissemination of cybernetic technology has triggered instability and conflict as those who control the trade gain increasing power. Furthermore, large 'Private Military Companies', or PMC's, that had been supported and controlled by the Patriots have collapsed, spawning countless rogue entities with origins to larger criminal organizations. These renegade PMCs employing cyborg technology have become increasingly more disruptive shifting policy and power at will. As a member of the peace-keeping PMC 'Maverick Security', Raiden lives by the mantra of protecting and saving lives. But as the world plunges further into asymmetric warfare, the only path that leads him forward is rooted in resolving his past, and carving through anything that stands in his way.

one of the best limited I've ever bought
Very fast delivery For a very cool game. And the action figure are pure awesome, I think this is one of the best action game in commerce, if u search something adrenalinic this game is here for u, trust me
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is awesome. It's a bit different from the rest of the Metal Gear saga, however I enjoy every moment I play it. I own at least 5 play arts figures and have to say that the one that comes with this is by far their best figure (in my opinion). The details are nothing less than perfect. It's very articulated and I got the surprise of the chest move with the rotate of the shoulder. It's such a beautiful figure.
This is a fantastic game and figure. Excellent price and the shipping was extremely fast and no damage at all, good packing!
I researched for a lot of time this collector, thank you very mutch for the fantastic price!! the package was perfect, no damage, as i buy it in a shop near my house.. fantastic!!
Fantastic Game, true action with a frenetic gameplay, playart with incredible details.
The game is fantastic, frantic and technically amazing and the figure is just perfect. Highly recommended for collectors.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is an excellent action game. The play-art toy is beautifully detailed.
Any product in the Metal Gear universe is a great experience.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) comes with wonderful figures that are detailed and 28cm high, with a cyborg action game that's based on Metal Gear. It's highly recommended!
The figure is very nice, full of details. Don't miss Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) if you are fan of metal gear.
The Raiden figurine in the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is very cool, but they should have inlcuded an artbook or some other piece with collectable value. I think that every game collector should buy this one, even if you are not into the metal gear series. It definitely adds value to your collection. The game is very action oriented and has a cut everything game mechanic, which has never done before in any game. The cyborg ninja is something fresh these days where every console game developer wants to compete with Call of Duty.
Fun game very good play arts kai white raiden figure
I'm enjoying Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive), and the character in the special edition was bigger and better than expected.
Raiden is back in this stunning, adrenalinic game. Zavvi offers a splendid limited edition with a very detailed collectable figure, shipped fast, excellent service!
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is a great game. I enjoyed the hack and slash action. I hope they bring a sequel to this metal gear spinoff series.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is a great game, and the figure of Raiden is excellent, and very detailed.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is an awesome packaging that was shipped very fast, to the US no less.
Raiden, the cyborg ninja returns with a full action slash game, cut as you will, let it rip! Great OST that makes your gameplay awesome! If you want to make some crazy stuff, just control Raiden and let your ninja go
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) was shipped fast. Excellent service!
First of I want to stay, the figure you get with the collectors edition is absolutely awesome! As for the game, it's terrific! The way how they've combined the stealth/hack 'n' slash game-play is very enjoyable. It just feels great to be able to slice through everything. You feel like your unstoppable (the hard mode however can be pretty challenging). All in all, very good and a thoroughly unique game! Well worth buying!
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition (Zavvi UK Exclusive) is a great game, and the figurine by Play Arts is of a great quality. I love it!
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is one of the best Metal Gear games.
Very good game! Platinum game is the biggest developer for this genre of games.
Exactly what I asked for and in perfect condition coming all the way from Texas! I've been enjoying the game soo much that I didn't find time to rate the quality job in receiving this package. Many thanks! I'm a huge metal gear fan and this is a great product!
Very good game, and the figurine by Play Arts is of a super high quality, as always.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is from a fantastic game series, and although I've yet to play the game but the additional lure of Frank Juagar's ninja costume and white cyborg Raiden adds to the title - I'll soon find out if it works! The main draw of this limited edition piece is that it comes with the exclusive Play Arts figure, which stands at 1 foot tall, with interchangeable accessories and has amazing and consistent quality. When you compare this Play Arts to other ubiquitous Play Arts figures you can see that the money you've spent really makes a difference. It's totally different to the figures from other series that you can buy for 20 pounds! Given all of these points the figure is actually sold out in Japan, and is being charged at a much higher price elsewhere on the web, so why not get the figure and game for the price of the figure alone? It's a real bargain, the only gripe being that the Japanese LE came with a soundtrack CD, but given that we're given extra costumes that the USA had to pay for it's not such a bum deal! This is highly recommended for collectors!
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is simply amazing.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is simply amazing.
A fast paced action hack & slash from the creative mind of Hideo Kojima and the technical expertise at platinum games. You will have to dig deep to find a game with more frantic action, huge set pieces and satisfying difficulty curve. By the games end even at the normal settings, you must be able to master the controls, to get past the middle section of this game and in to the last quarter where the difficulty ramps up significantly. The only downfall are some controller issues, a dedicated blocking button would be nice, and sometimes the camera does its best to focus on the least important things happening on the screen. If you are a fan of platinum's earlier efforts, looking at especially Bayonetta this is a game for you. This being a limited edition you will also get a quite detailed figurine of the games main character Raiden in his white armor. (This is an figurine by Play Arts, with both pose and appearance customizable). As an extra bonus, two extra DLC armors are also in this package: "The white armor" (as depicted on the figurine) and more awesome "The Cyborg Ninja skin/armor" which makes Raiden look like Frank Jeager from the original Metal Gear Solid.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is amazing.
Metal gear solid is greatest series ever. This game is something new but the story is still the best. The limited edition is worth the price, even when it is a little too much for one game in my opinion.
Fantastic purchase. Well worth it`s weight in gold. I would recommend it to everyone. Great!
A very good game with a lot of action, and the figure has a lot of tiny details, all this in a beautiful box.
I've waited for the next series of Metal Gear games for a long time after playing Peace Walker. Raiden is another character that I love in the MGS series. After I finished playing MGS4, I wanted to play a sword play, ninja game with Raiden. Metal Gear Rising is really user friendly, great work by Platinum Games. This is a must buy game if you love Raiden, and if you do, you should not miss out on this limited edition with painted figure.
Excellent game, great storyline and great value.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is nothing like Metal Gear Solid but it's still very fun. Like you'd expect there's a change in style since this is a hack'n'slash and not a stealth game, some may not like this but since it's technically not a part of Metal Gear Solid it matters little. I won't reveal any spoilers, but the story was a bit lacking, it was fun and memorable, but lacking. I liked it because it did have a lot of fun with what it was doing, didn't take itself seriously which is why it's as fun at it is. The game also has good characters and voice acting. Furthermore, the gameplay is also really a blast, the fast paced combat feels good and the cutting mechanic delivers. Special combos and the parry might be hard to get a hang of but overall the combat is fun and rewarding. I give the game 4 stars, aside from a campaign with much replayability there's also bonus VR missions to keep you busy. Highly recommended!
First off, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is a great game. The Metal Gear in the title is very misleading as it is in no way a Metal Gear "Solid" game. It's a 3rd person action hack and slash game, and in its own way it's a great one.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is an awesome game! I'm a huge Metal Gear fan I was at first dubious about a spin off series. Having played through and getting used to this very unique game, I think it does Raiden justice and kick starts his franchise! The limited edition bundle was excellent and I'm so glad I picked it up!
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is a good action game, with its own style and its own clear view of things. The gameplay is solid, well-researched, and has character: the precision cut, the zandatsu and system saves are really innovative. Compared to the previous work of the team, however, Revengeance is much less technical and more easy to deal with, and has some problems with the handling of the camera. The combat system gives the player the opportunity to exhibit his virtuosity, but not you're not necessarily forced to do your best. The better aspect of Revengeance, however, is the variety: good boss fights, a good number of different enemies, stealth sections and extra weapons. All this helps to build a pleasant experience to the end. Overall, longevity is also good. In short I would sincerely recommend this to all fans of action. The extras in the Limited Edition are really spectacular. The Play Arts Kai is one of the most detailed action figures series, and Cyborg Raiden is one of the most detailed figure of the series. The only flaw, for me, is that it's not in scale with the other metal gear play arts kai.
Oh my, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is an awesome game! Sure it borrows elements from different games but this does not affect the game negatively. It does the opposite! I read many reviews of the game that state the camera was horrible, but it wasn't that bad. Also the graphics aren't quite on par with Metal Gear Solid 4, but it's still a really fun game! The figure was a very welcome addition to the game, but I feel the box art of this limited edition is simply amazing! It really felt like a metal gear game when I finally could unpack it! You will find yourself replaying the game constantly. Simply put it's an amazing game, unfortunately the delivery of the game took too long. I highly recommend this edition to anyone who likes Metal Gear and action games!
The Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is great for any Metal Gear fan. The figure is awesome and the game is incredibly fun. The art on the box that it all comes in is a great centerpiece between all of the Metal Gear Rising limited editions.
I love Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, it's a must buy.
