I would be so happy If I could get the period induced asthma to go away ;) I didn't start having this problem until about 2 years ago.
Ecks, why are some items in green and some in black?
Everything is allowed. Items in green just hold more favor. ;)
Ahh, this must not be the list for the autoimmune stuff. Honestly, I'm doing ok without certain things. It's teaching me to be more creative with what I have and to remember to do with what I have. I'm certain Paul spoke of this in Phillipians right before the famous verse ;) So, I try to use him as an example when I need to remember that.
I didn't sleep very well last night and I so badly wanted to sleep in. Then the rooster on my alarm wouldn't turn off! I chose not to take any thyroid medication this morning because it seemed like my pulse was still up a bit. I did split my stuff in half last night while Gabi and I were watching an episode of Doctor Who (my secret, but now not so secret, favorite TV show).
Monday Whole30 Day 13
Meal 1: Salmoned cooked in bacon grease, 3 pcs bacon, 1/2 acorn squash with some melted coconut oil, shredded coconut, and some cinnamon. Some canned coconut milk
Meal 2: Last of the pork chop, salad, and 1 avocado
Meal 3: Lambburgers (used some ground up oregano and rosemary, some fresh squeezed lemon juice, a little olive oil, and some salt and pepper to season), Gabi made some salad, and steamed green beans.
Drinks: Water and coconut milk all throughout the day
Exercise: 3 sets of river rock pushing with grok crawl for 50ft, jump rope 30-35 times, one armed river rock throw with lunges, and hula hoop about 100 rounds (200 on the last one). 1 morning walk, but no afternoon building walk because I was feeling a bit off after donating blood.
Whew! I'm feelin much better today. I only woke up once last night and that was about 30 mins before I needed to be up. Gabi and I enjoyed some fajitas until she accidently spilled some of her iced tea on her food. That was okay by me. I finished it off and didn't feel guilty! No worries, I did clean up the spill from her plate before finishing the last little bit of dinner.
I am still having a problem with the heart rate, but it's not nearly as bad as it was on Tuesday or yesterday. So I chose to to go ahead and take my thyroid stuff this morning.
WOO WOO! I'm half way through the initial 30 days. I might go for 45 to see what else happens.
Tuesday Whole30 Day 14
Meal 1: Chicken cooked in bacon grease and seasoned with Italian Sausage seasoning, salad with homemade dressing, and some canned coconut milk
Meal 2: More of the chicken from the morning, some more salad, an avocado, and some mixed berries.
Meal 3: Beef fajitas seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders, ground cumin, and lime juice and cooked in bacon grease. Sauteed up some white onions and peeled yellow squash in coconut oil.
Exercise: 6X50m sprints. I couldn't really do more because my left quad was hurting a little bit. I stretched after each sprint, but that still didn't help. 1 walk around the building at work.
Drinks: Water and canned coconut milk.
There's an awesome reintroduction section in the book. May be worth it to go through when you are done and follow that program for a bit. It'll give you more insite as to what your body likes/doesnt :)
I'm impressed with how well you are doing on your Whole 30, Alessandra! Good job keeping your eyes closed during the weigh-in. That accidental sighting doesn't count one bit- wipe it from your mind. :)

I did catch that part of the book. I'm still playing with idea of waiting on that one. I've got the shopping list and crossed off what I need to stay away from.
[B]Sabine[/B], Thank you!
I made a fun little hamburger helper style recipe last night for my dinner. I was just a tad bit tired when I got home yesterday, but because it's getting close to that time of the month. I woke up to about an inch of snow on the ground this morning with some lovely fog. It's mornings like this that make me feel like I'm back in Virginia Beach!
Wednesday Whole30 Day 15
Meal 1: 2 homemade sausage patties, 3 pcs bacon, the last of the salad with some dressing, and some coconut milk
Meal 2: Leftover fajita meat, 1 sausage patty, the last of the sauteed veggies from the fajitas, and the other half of the acorn squash.
Meal 3: Bison helper! Made with (unfortunately) slightly burned sweet potato bits, chopped yellow onion, apple pieces, and bison. Seasoned with cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic powder, and salt. Cooked with coconut oil.
Exercise: Same as Monday's workout and 1 walk around the building. The second half of the day was a bit nasty weather wise.
Drinks: Homemade tea blend, water, and canned coconut milk.
MMM... I made a similar hamburger helper recipe before but with carrot. I used a carrot peeler to shread the entire carrot into wide "noodles" and boiled them thoroughly until they were soft. I'll have to try your method of using sweet potato though :)

BRYN MAWR, PA - Ilia S. Zeltser, MD , Urologic Surgeon at Bryn Mawr Hospital, is among an elite group of physicians nationwide and the only in the Philadelphia region performing laparoscopic Retroperitoneal Lymph Node Dissection, a safe and effective way to treat testicular cancer, as well as help establish its exact stage and type, with less pain and faster recovery when compared to traditional surgical procedures.
"The incidence of testicular cancer is on the rise making it the most common cancer in men between the ages of fifteen and thirty-four," said Dr. Zeltser. "Fortunately, it is highly treatable, even when the cancer has spread beyond the testicle."
Treatment for testicular cancer typically involves the surgical removal of the affected testicle. In some cases when the cancer has spread or has a high risk of spreading, the surgeon may also remove the lymph nodes in the chest area in a procedure called retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND).
As Dr. Zeltser explains, the standard way of doing RPLND involves a large incision that extends from the chest to several inches below the belly button. Laparoscopic RPLND is a new technique which uses several small incisions to perform the surgery. This approach is much less invasive, which results in less pain, scarring, infection, and recovery time.
Although this procedure has proven safe and highly effective in treating testicular cancer, as in any surgery there are risks such as bleeding and potential sexual side effects that could affect fertility.
Ultimately, the most successful treatment for testicular cancer is early detection. Dr. Zeltser recommends that young men should learn to perform self-examination (TSE) shortly after puberty.
"Self-examination performed on a monthly basis plays a major role in detecting tumors at earlier stages -- before they spread," said Dr. Zeltser.
Dr. Zeltser is an expert in minimally invasive urologic surgical techniques at Bryn Mawr Hospital and Bryn Mawr Urology Associates in Rosemont. For more information or to make an appointment, call 610-525-6580.

This week, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie signed a law meant to reinvigorate the solar industry in the Garden State by requiring utilities to buy more solar energy.
At the same time, though, hope is fading that a similar fix will help Pennsylvania's solar industry anytime soon.
Prices for renewable energy credits tanked in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey when the market was flooded with too many new solar arrays.
The problem hit Pennsylvania much worse, and nearly destroyed demand for new installations.

Creationism and intelligent design still have a place in schools despite losing battles in court, a recent study says.
More than 12 percent of high school biology teachers provide some instruction on creationism or intelligent design as a "valid, scientific alternative to Darwinian explanations for the origin of species," researchers at Pennsylvania State University found.
The intelligent design views have been continuously shot down in court. Judges have ruled that creationism and intelligent design are religion, not science.
Still, some high school teachers believe otherwise.
"Ultimately, they are the ones who carry it out," Michael Berkman, a political scientist at Penn State, said.
Berkman and his colleagues conducted the national survey of high school biology teachers in 2007 - the first-ever of its kind. Of the 939 teachers who responded to the survey, one-fourth of them said they spent time teaching creationism and intelligent design.
Read the survey's entire results here.
When asked about their religious beliefs, 16 percent said they personally believed God created human beings in the last 10,000 years.
Some experts say that biology teachers may be spending less and less time on Darwin's theory because of community pressure.
"(The number of supporters) seems a bit high, but I am not shocked by it," said Linda Froschauer, past president of the National Science Teachers Association in Arlington, Va.
Berkman noted that those who favored evolution had a deeper background in evolutionary biology than those who did not. He believes if teachers are required to take evolutionary biology courses, it would dramatically impact evolution being taught in schools.
In 2004, a Pennsylvania school board began requiring teachers to read a statement that questioned the validity of Darwinism.
"Because Darwin's Theory is a theory, it continues to be tested as new evidence is discovered," the statement read. "The Theory is not a fact. Gaps in the Theory exist for which there is no evidence."

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - A Birmingham man today was sentenced to three years probation for mail fraud related to false claims submitted about income he lost as a bartender on the Gulf Coast after the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
Jonathan M. Hoffman was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Abdul Kallon in a hearing at the Hugo L. Black U.S. Courthouse in Birmingham, according to court records. Hoffman also will have to pay restitution of $46,150, the judge said.
Prosecutors dismissed another mail fraud charge as part of a plea agreement with Hoffman.
Hoffman had been indicted in December related to claims he made to the Gulf Coast Claims Facility for lost wages from a coastal restaurant where he had worked as a bartender. According to his plea agreement, Hoffman was overpaid $46,150.

A possible motive for the shooting is under investigation.

Sometimes, though, despite best planning the worst happens, like your air conditioner gives up the ghost on a 100-degree Fahrenheit day. Your parrot can quickly become heat-stressed or suffer a full-fledged heat stroke. What should you do?
If your bird is simply panting and is a little heat stressed, cool — not cold — water from a misting bottle helps bring your bird's temperature down. If the bird is in the sun, get it into a shaded area or bring it inside your house in an air conditioned room or hold it in front of a fan. Offer it a small amount of water or electrolyte solution, or let it step in a shallow dish of cool water.
"If your bird stops panting, seems more relaxed, and responds normally to your voice, it is doing fine," said North Carolina avian veterinarian, Gregory Burkett, DVM. Once your bird seems improved, he advises you have it examined by a veterinarian to make sure there was no permanent brain or organ damage.
If your bird is having a heat stroke and is actually convulsing, avian veterinarian Gregory Harrison, DVM, recommends you shower the bird with cool soapy water. Use either mild dish detergent or liquid hand soap in the water. Either way, the soap functions as a wetting agent and helps get water under the feathers and to the body. Be sure the water is not excessively cold or icy. If you use water that is too cold, "your bird would go right through normal and into a hypothermia situation," Dr. Harrison cautioned.
Hopefully, your bird will come around in a few minutes, but if 15 to 20 minutes goes by and it isn't, Dr. Harrison suggests you pack your bird in cool towels with some ice packs around its feet and beak and take it to the emergency clinic. The staff there may be able to give your bird some phenobarbital or acepromezine to control the convulsions.

Is the Name of Zymere Helping or Hurting You?
All names are not equal. The names you use create your life experiences.
Find out how all the names you use and the energy they create have shaped your life in
free Name and Birth Date Report. Life can be better, find out how.
Your name Zymere has given you the desires to be independent and to be in a position of leadership. Although you can be original, inventive, and ingenious with your ideas, procrastination, lack of confidence, and lack of ambition often deter you from pursuing more challenging goals that require concentration and effort. Others may see you as being firm and positive with your plans and intentions, but when it comes to making decisions and taking action, you feel the need for advice and encouragement. There is an influence in this name that weakens your determination, causing you to be passive and averse to risk. Although you may try to appear confident and in control, you tend to let obligations slide until you are forced to deal with them, and even then you will seek the path of least resistance. Alternatively, you could stubbornly refuse to deal with a problem.
You enjoy being with people in a social environment. Personal appearance in matters of style and dress is important to you, for you desire to make a good impression on others. This name gives you a friendly, pleasant personality that attracts people into your life. Your diplomacy and sympathetic nature in dealing with people result in others confiding in you to seek your advice, or wanting you to act as an intermediary in resolving issues or disputes. However, you must beware of a tendency to divulge confidences or to be persuaded against your better judgment.
Your own desire for approval and dislike for confrontation can cause you to compromise your position, or cause you to make promises you do not seriously intend to carry out. You can be vulnerable to the influence of others with the result that you can be drawn into deeper involvement in the personal affairs and problems of others than is prudent. At times you feel awkward within yourself when trying to find the right words for a situation, in which circumstances you can be too outspoken with your opinions.
In your work, or in the business world, you would be most at ease and most successful in positions such as sales, public relations, or teaching where you deal with people in a non-aggressive manner. A preference to avoid high-pressure situations involving complex details or responsibility for making decisions limits your success.
This name causes health weaknesses that centre in the head such as weak eyes, sinus trouble, headaches, or throat trouble. Weaknesses could also affect the fluid functions, that is, blood circulation and glandular system, and the kidneys, bladder, prostate.
Do You Want Something Better?

Although it was announced as launch game for X360, we've had to wait quite a while for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter as Ubisoft kept pushing it back. However, by now a lot of people have gotten their next-gen console and they'll all be able to enjoy this top game.
In this new Ghost Recon episode you take on the clothes of Scott Mitchell, a Ghost. Not one that roams around with chains at night but an F16 with two feet! You'll have to complete your military assignments in Mexico City during a 10 hour singleplayer campaign that will cluster you to the screen. And take that literally as tension, plot twists, drama, spectacular explosions and firefights are more than present. Imagine a combination of Black Hawk Down, Splinter Cell, Full Spectrum Warrior and some intense shooter, added with a slight futuristic sauce and you know what to expect: heavy, brutal action!
Mexico City looks fantastic and plays a leading role in the game. It looks like the whole town is present in-game and especially the sequences where you get flow to and from the action with a helicopter nicely add to the atmosphere. Once you're on the ground ("We Were Soldiers" anyone?) GRAW will suck you up in its never-ending intense action.
You hardly get the time to enjoy the razor sharp textures, beautiful level design, immensely beautiful architecture (I really hated the fact I couldn't keep staring at it) and incredibly lighting effects and color filters. The sun will blind you, the heat rises from the asphalt and dust gets in your nose as choppers circle around your head. Then I didn't even mention the truly magnificent models that will make you step closer to your HDTV. We haven't seen better on X360 qua graphics yet.
The makers also use this surrounding very good. Although you only get to pass through a part of town during a mission, there's always different roads and means to find and complete your objectives and targets. You can evade blockades or attack them from the side and more than once you get to climb or access buildings, which enhances again the realism. On top of that, the enemy will not hesitate to hide on a balcony or snipe from the top of a building. Believe me that you'll become an ace in navigating safely through streets and alleys.
The fantastic and innovating controls are very welcome. Every car, wall of object can be used to take cover through a simple 'push' with your stick. Equally simple you then look around a corner to fire a couple of rounds. Also the zooming, laying, crawling and giving orders is after some minutes of getting used to a second a nature.
You'll need these orders to use your teammates (three in total which you control together) and some supporting units in a good way. Your fellow Ghost units can be ordered to attack or do recon, recalled and controlled in a very efficient way to be sent ahead. Their AI is probably the biggest downpoint of the entire game, especially as they leave cover too often when being shot at. After a while you start taking this into account so that it never really spoils the fun though.
As said you don't only have the three Ghosts but at times also APC's, tanks, attack choppers or recon planes. These are given on a sporadic base but are ideal to overcome tight situations. Through a little TV-image in your HUD you can track their movements and although they always stay on some sort of "rail" (you can only send them forward or backwards and point out targets through your map) it's a real joy to get to work with them and they're an excellent addition to the work with your own character. The HUD is by the way excellent, it starts to be disturbed when you weaken, you get mission updates in it (anyone remember Wing Commander?) and friend and foe are clearly pointed out.
For those not accustomed with the typical gameplay of the series we would like to point out that this is indeed a tactical shooter. You won't be running and jumping around like some idiot but rather progress step by step and take cover where you can. One bullet can be the end of your career or that of your colleagues. Luckily you have a minute the time to reanimate one of your colleagues if they get shot.
Exploring the surroundings now and then, making smart use of your assets and taking into account that there are no health packs (!) is the idea. With some checkpoints your character will get healed again, but you can choose these moments yourself. It may be clear that this game is indeed a challenge, even on normal difficulty degree.
We already spoke about the graphics but also the sound deserves its own line. All effects, especially those of weapons, sound really sharp and powerful. Put this on your surround system and within no time the neighbours will come ringing your bell. Especially when the game unleashes a surprising, loud explosion onto you, you'll jump from your seat. Extremely spectacular! Also the music is alright, with some known and some unknown tracks that are played before, after and during important parts of missions. A somewhat more subtle in- and outro would have been welcome but that's only splitting hairs.
Once you've finished the singleplayer, there's quite a lot of content present in the multiplayer modes where you can play with up to 16 people through XBox Live. You get 10 maps, the classic modes (CTF, DM) and a very good co-op option. Especially that last one could appeal to me, but seeing the success of the game online you'll be busy plenty of hours with the multiplayer.
For those that didn't get it yet: you just have to get this Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter! Its impressive, challenging and in the meantime very accessible gameplay in both single- and multiplayer and the beautiful graphics and music will deliver memorable moments. For who has an Xbox360 this is a must, and who doesn't have one yet this tactical shooter gives a strong reason to get one.

Spears, 25, stopped by the San Fernando Valley salon at around 7 p.m. Friday night after it had closed, Tognozzi tells PEOPLE.
Accompanied by two bodyguards, Spears walked in with a hoodie covering her head and told Tognozzi, "'I want you to buzz my hair off.'"
Tognozzi first tried to talk Spears out of going through with the shave, then after refusing the pop star's request, Spears told her, "'Then I'll do it.'" (Click here to see the photos.)
During Spears's visit, which came after news of her short rehab stint broke, Tognozzi describes the pop star as having "no expression." However, she notes Spears smiled for the cameras when waiting photographers caught sight of her newly shorn look inside the salon.

Before Spears slipped out the back door, Tognozzi asked her if the buzz cut was a symbol of a new beginning. Spears's response: "'Something like that.'"

Portable LiDAR unit boosts windfarm evaluation
May 31, 2007 Wind farm planning and development will benefit from a deal just signed to market a portable LiDAR unit capable of accurately measuring wind speeds at heights of up to 150m. Designed and built by defense specialists QinetiQ, the unit will be brought to the market by Scottish consultancy Natural Power. It will be a key tool in the evaluation of prospective wind farm sites.
Natural Power, a renewable energy consultancy based in south west Scotland has purchased an exclusive license to market QinetiQ's ZephIR wind speed measurement system to the wind energy industry.
The arrangements cover the rights to exploit QinetiQ's LiDAR technology, on which ZephIR is based, primarily in the wind energy market. QinetiQ retains exploitation rights in other markets particularly defense, security and aerospace.
ZephIR is based on LiDAR technology (Light Detection and Ranging) and works by measuring the Doppler shift of laser radiation back scattered from moving objects in the air. The majority of systems currently deployed are used for wind resource assessment, generating accurate measurements which play a vital role in the investment decision required before a new wind farm site can be developed.
Mark Palethorpe, Finance Director for QinetiQ's commercial business said: "QinetiQ has a strong pipeline of environmental technologies, many emanating from our core defence business. LiDAR technology has been used for many years in the aerospace industry, but until recently it has been too expensive and cumbersome for use in the renewable energy sector."
Stuart Hall, a Director of Natural Power said: "ZephIR has already established a foothold in a wide range of wind energy markets across the world and is an excellent addition to our portfolio of renewable energy technologies."
"Appropriate wind resource assessment is an absolute must in realising an efficient and profitable wind power project. The project risk is often determined by the quality of initial wind measurements and ZephIR provides the opportunity to reduce that risk."

The two most common are IMR/H/A4350 and RL15.
August 26, 2007, 05:10 PM
I don't shoot mine as much as I did 25 years ago, but those are the two powders I've used most in the past. I always liked the 235gr bullet (because it is only 235 grains), as well as the 300 Sierra Boat Tail because of its excellent ballistic properties. I also shot a lot of the Hornady 270gr flat base, because they were cheap(er). If I were going to be buying components today, I would probably buy Nosler Partitions.
IMR 4064 is more accurate in my experience, IMR 4350 gives you a bit more velocity. Some links:
August 26, 2007, 05:18 PM
I loaded up my 375 H&H with IMR 4064. Worked fine. I cannot remember the powder charge, but my recollection was that one pound goes very quickly.
August 26, 2007, 05:25 PM
August 26, 2007, 07:35 PM
Ramshot Hunter and Big Game do well, as does W760. My personal favorite is VV N550. 4320 and 4895 are also great, but I typically like heavy bullets.
Accordiing to QuickLoad, W760 and Ramshot Hunter should give the best velocity with a given pressure
August 26, 2007, 10:54 PM
Please shut off your caps lock. Your manual should have data. Midway, et al has brass. Midway wants $42.99 per 100 for Remington brass.
August 27, 2007, 06:59 AM
I think the best powder for the 375 H&H Magnum is probably RL-15.
At 100 yards off the bench shooting 3 shot groups, I get about 1.5 inch groups with Hornady 300 gr. BTSP bullets and less than 1 inch groups with Hornady 300 gr. FMJ round nose bullets.
Another thing about the 375 H&H Magnum; the cases tend to stretch a lot and early. Be sure to check the case length and trim as needed. Also, run a paper clip with the tip bent down the inside of the case to detect the groove that starts before head separation.
August 27, 2007, 11:05 PM
Well, you specified full-tilt-and-boogie, and 300gr bullets. Sooooo...
My biggest grin-getter was a 72gr of H4895 behind a Speer 235. Probably ~ 2600, not too unpleasant. Never shot it at game, but it would really shoot tight groups ~ 3/4" at 100. I bet it would mow down any deer and most elk.
August 30, 2007, 10:09 PM
I found that 64 grains of IMR 4064 worked best under a 300 Sierra Game King. That recipe did well on a 500+lb boar in Belgium.
Winchester 760 gave up a smidge of velocity and accuracy, but not enough to become excited - - - and was MUCH easier to meter. ;)

We read a great article by Vince Martin titled "Procter & Gamble Is Severely Overvalued" (found here). Martin went through a detailed analysis of the reasons why Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG) should be considered an overvalued stock. Because Martin did not mention selling the stock (a cardinal sin of dividend investors), given such a strongly titled article, we thought we'd try to estimate what the downside risk for PG might be so that investors could prepare for when to buy the stock.
Keep in mind that as of October 12, 2012, Procter & Gamble has a price chart with the following activity since early 2007:
Overall, the price of PG has vacillated widely with a high of $74.67 and a low of $44.18. Dow Theory suggests that the midpoint of such a range is the dividing line between a stock that is bullish or bearish. In this case, the midpoint is $59.43. As can be seen by the rise from the 2009 low, PG has found significant support at or near the $59 level. This suggests that there is a bullish bias for this stock as accumulation seems to occur just below $60. Keep in mind that any significant decline below $59 is considered bearish and could be the beginning of a retest of the 2009 low.
Although the article noted above did not indicate that there was a specific downside target to "fair" valuation or undervaluation, we believe that such a point must exist. So far, Dow Theory and price activity since 2010 suggests that a fair or undervaluation sits around the $57-$59 level. However, when viewed from Edson Gould's Altimeter, PG seems to be trading at the equivalent of 1991 prices as seen in the chart below:
Gould's Altimeter indicates that based on the current dividend, provided there are no dividend increases going forward, PG is undervalued and has critical support at the $55 level. Any further increases in the dividend will only increase the undervaluation of the PG profile. For now, Edson Gould's Altimeter confirms what Dow Theory seems to indicate and that is that at the $55-$59 range, Procter & Gamble should be aggressively accumulated.
Another area of concern is the dividend payout ratio. According to the article mentioned above:
"Assuming that 2013 dividends are paid at 60 cents quarterly - a 6.7% raise, lower than any hike in the past decade - the dividend will have risen 50 percent from 2008 to 2013, a period over which earnings are expected to rise just 14 percent. That is simply not sustainable, and as a result, in fiscal 2013, PG's payout ratio will almost definitely surpass 60 percent. In fact, on a free cash flow basis, PG's payout ratio has already passed that level, jumping from 58 percent in FY2011 to nearly 66 percent in FY2012."
At some point, the dividend payout ratio can become the Achilles' heel for PG if earnings are not sustainable. However, we believe that the earnings profile of PG will evolve and remain sustainable over time. In fact, while Value Line Investment Survey confirms Martin's expectation for an annual decrease in earnings of -8% for 2013, PG is projected to increase their earnings by +53% in 2015-2017, bringing the fair value estimate of the stock to $97. This fair value estimate comes with a 100% "earnings predictability" rating from Value Line (dated 9/28/2012).
Obviously, anything can happen with a stock during such volatile times. However, we believe that Procter & Gamble, while not cheap, is a reasonable stock to accumulate if an investor is looking for a 4 to 6-year holding period. Aggressive accumulation of PG should take place if the stock declines to $59 and below.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it. I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Through four games, the two biggest superstars in the Rangers/Capitals first round series have combined for ONE goal. To show how insane that is, Rick Nash and Alex Ovechkin have combined for 681 career goals!
So what are the two teams doing defensively to shut these guys down?
Pat Leonard at the Daily News notes that Capitals coach Adam Oates has called for double-teams and defensive collapses from his forwards on Nash, who is already being checked by Washington defenseman John Carlson or whoever else is on the assignment depending on which wing Nash has occupied.
Here's Nash on the Capitals strategy…
"It seems like they're closing down on me. I usually get a lot of space coming off the wall, but they're really using that winger to come down and block it. So I've just got to move (the puck) more and work for my space."
Meanwhile, Dan Rosen at NHL.com says besides constant pressure from Dan Girardi and Ryan McDonagh, the Rangers forecheck has led to Ovechkin's lack of scoring…
"As much credit as Girardi and McDonagh get for their play against Ovechkin, Backstrom and Johansson, the Rangers' forecheck was much better in Games 3 and 4 than it was in Games 1 and 2. The forecheck not only led to more offensive chances, but it meant the Capitals' top line had to play in its defensive end, which obviously is not the favorite part of the ice for any of those three players."
John Moore adds that McDonagh has done a great job of staying in Ovechkin's face and not allowing him space to make things happen.
…i've been very critical of the Rangers lack of secondary scoring this season, but they are carrying the Rangers in the postseason. It is way beyond time for Nash to step up his game and make his mark on this series.
…i honestly feel that once he finally finds the back of the net, they'll start coming in bunches. Got to assume he's gripping his stick a little too tight right about now.
…as far as the Rangers defense on Ovechkin goes, other guys besides Girardi and McD are going to be counted on tonight as the Capitals have the final line change and you can be assured Oates will be looking to get his captain away from those two all night. Unless of course Torts just decides to leave McDonagh on the ice for four minute shifts like he did in Game 2.

Make a Difference Day is worthwhile and noble. People I met were genuine about their contribution toward the overall success of the community effort. Each was enthusiastic and focused on the team effort.
The one great concern I had as a parent was the lack of safety preparation for those who participated.
I observed teenagers and young boys and girls removing debris and clearing hillsides at the homeless-shelter site.
Participants were asked to bring their own gloves, but were not prevented from helping without them. Removing wood planks with exposed rusty nails and dead shrubs with dry branches were some of the items the children piled into a dumpster to be hauled away.
Next year, we should mandate that safety glasses and leather gloves at the minimum are required for every participant. It's only a matter of time before someone is badly hurt because we failed as adults and organizers to provide oversight and be sure that everyone worked safely and carefully at each location.
Next year, let's take care of one another as we take care of our community.

Say what you will about former Miami (FL) Ray-Ray Armstrong and how his misuse of social media led to his dismissal. Unlike another college defensive back in South Florida, Armstrong had the presence of mind not to tweet about a trip to a strip club.
That was the faux pas committed by FIU's Demarkus Perkins. Not only was Perkins at a strip club, he was also there with a recruit.
Words cannot do justice to the idiocy that Perkins displayed. We don't expect football players to act like choir boys, but if you're going to have "boys will be boys"-type of nights, keep it discreet.
Your move, new FIU head coach Ron Turner.

Final exam regulations, fall 2016
Examinations except common examinations are given in the regularly scheduled classroom unless your instructor arranges for and announces a different room. Note to instructors: See Regulations Regarding Examinations, below.
Examination scheduling conflicts
You are required to take final examinations at the times shown. However, if you have examination conflicts or three (or more) final exams within one calendar day, you may request adjustment with your college office and with your instructor. Such a request must be presented at least two weeks before the examination period begins.
If you miss a final, an I, an F, or an N is recorded, depending upon your standing at the time. To make up the exam, you must obtain the instructor's permission.
Regulations regarding examinations
- There shall be no variations from the University final examination schedule except by concurrence of the dean of the college and the director of scheduling. This prohibition also precludes moving a final examination from a scheduled time to study day or to the last or earlier meetings of the class, except laboratory final examinations which cannot be held in accordance with the regular final examination schedule.
- All department requests for adjustment of final examination hours should be made online on ASR Form 163 by October 14 to permit publication of the change and orderly consideration of hardships. Additional common examinations may be requested on the same online form, which also includes room request information.
- Instructors requesting any variation from the official examination schedule must agree to give a special make-up examination to any student having examination conflicts or three (or more) examinations in one calendar day because of the change in hours.
- Arranged examinations and authorized variations in published hours shall conform with the hour-periods shown in the examination schedules.
- Each college shall assume responsibility for making arrangements to spread out examinations for students who have three (or more) examinations scheduled in one calendar day.
- The following courses have been approved for a three hour final examination:
- Math 1001, 1031, 1051, 1142, 1151, 1155, 1271, 1272, 1371, 1372, 1571H, 2243, 2263, 2373, 2573H, 2374, Math 3592H, 3593H;
- Physics: all courses;
- PubH 3001, 3003, 3004;
Departments are also encouraged to request alternate seating only when it is necessary for proper administration of the exam. Requests for rooms for alternate seating must be submitted by the department office via the online ASR 123 form.
All ASR 123 forms should be submitted online on or before October 14. Notification of room assignments for all ASR 123 forms received by October 14 will be sent to departments on or before October 28.
- University Senate policy decrees that no extracurricular events which require the participation of students may be scheduled from the beginning of study day to the end of finals week. Exceptions to this policy may be granted by the Senate Committee on Educational Policy. The Senate advises all faculty members that students who are unable to complete course requirements during finals week shall be provided an alternative and timely opportunity to do so.


text: After seeing a couple of stories on F/B about people over-reacting to residents openly carrying their firearms, I need to comment. First the Constitution of both the United States and the Commonwealth support the Right of its Citizens to own firearms. Pennsylvania is an "open carry" state, which means you should be able to carry a firearm openly without harassment from either citizens or police.

New APWA staff
Emily Lovald has joined APWA in the Washington, D.C. office as the Government Affairs Assistant. She will support the Government Affairs team in creating and realizing their public policy advocacy objectives.
Emily comes to APWA from Grassroot Soccer, an innovative nonprofit focused on AIDS awareness and education in Africa, where she worked as a Development Associate. Her professional background also includes work on Capitol Hill as an intern for Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) on his Judiciary Committee and Personal Office staff, as well as experience as a Consumer Information Specialist with the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs. She plans to pursue a master's degree in Public Policy one day soon.
Emily has a B.A. in Political Science from Northeastern University in Boston, MA, where she minored in International Affairs, History and English. She was a founding member of the Northeastern University College Democrats and an active member of the Delta Zeta sorority. She has traveled throughout much of southern Asia, Africa and South America.
In her spare time Emily enjoys international travel, cooking, and exploring the city with her dog Fenway.
Courtney Thompson has recently joined the Education Department as APWA's new Education Assistant. She will be working with the Education staff in assisting to promote and facilitate Click, Listen, and Learns and Web-based training, processing CEUs from all education events, and communicating with Congress speakers to coordinate their information in preparation for Congress.

Originally from Caruthersville, Missouri, Courtney attended the University of Missouri-Columbia and graduated with a B.S. in Biological Sciences. Currently, she is working on obtaining a B.S. in Business at the University of Missouri-Kansas City in which she plans to further her education just as she hopes she can do for the members of APWA. In her spare time Courtney enjoys a good book, movie, or spending time with her family, especially her nephew Daniel, in Caruthersville.

Marinara Sauce
Simple home made marinara sauce. The applications are endless. I can't imagine having too many canned tomatoes, but this would be an excellent use for them if you did. If you would like more photo detail, I've got more on my blog. Happy eating.
- 1-2 pounds of tomatoes
- Olive oil
- 1 white onion chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, chopped finely
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 sprig thyme
- 4 TBSP chopped flat leaf parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Heat 2 TBSP olive oil in medium saucepan and add onions, cooking until soft but not brown
- Add bay and thyme sprig. Chop tomatoes and simmer gently over low heat for about an hour or until sauce has thickened to desired consistency.
- Remove bay and thyme sprig
- Add chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sauce can be pureed or strained if wished or left chunky.

Call it Miss Alcott's Sewing Circle and Feral Hog Hunting Society or call it the MeMo Book Club — who cares?
I'm oddly nervous about commencing discussion. Remember, the book was Then We Came to the End by Joshua Ferris
First, let's stipulate that it's OK if you hate this book — or any other — but it helps if you have thought-out reasons why.
Also, it is by no means required that you stay on topic. Remember in The Catcher in the Rye when everybody yelled "Digression!" at Holden Caulfield? That won't happen here.
All right, here goes.
Then We Came to the End is a pretty detailed description of office life, though funnier and more outlandish than most of our office lives, I'm guessing — but not by much. Not altogether different from the TV Show The Office, but more serious and poignant.
— Did the depiction of office life ring true to you?
— How about layoffs (or "walking Spanish", as they call it in the book)?
— How much is your office your little fishbowl?
— Which character was most like somebody you work with — or most like you?
Tomorrow, I'd like to talk about the way the book was written — the narration, the Lynn Mason section, the Tom Mota incident.

Finances can be on the brink of devastation, until you could possibly get a handle on energetic purchasing. The pleasure that comes with splurging is actually a tough practice to break, particularly if it associated with a more internal problem. Some individuals switch for the malls while others switch to liquor, medicines and/ or food.

E "identity persistence" has got nothing to do with object persistence. E "identity persistence" is just a means for mapping a URI to a message endpoint. Just as a Java Servlet uses a configuration file to map a URI to message endpoint, E uses its "identity persistence" API. You are confusing yourself and others by using the term "persistence" in your "identity persistence" term. > Comparing it to Java Servlet persistence, Wow, so are you actually taking the position that Java Servlets is a persistent object platform? > even E identity persistence is a > superior kind of persistence, a true object persistence rather than a > guessing game based on IP addresses: A secure Java Servlet would be addressed using an https:// URI. This provides similar security guarantees to a cap:// URI. Neither of these security guarantees has anything to do with object persistence, "true" or otherwise. A Java Servlet has to fend for itself when it comes to saving state, and so does an E object. The conceptual models here are identical. > The only answer is to be clear > about what kind of persistence we are supporting now, and what our plan is > for the future. We have outgrown the simplicity of the "tl" label, however > you slice it. I understand that you wish to outgrow the "tl-" label, but the fact is that you haven't. The erights download page defines the "tl-" tag to mean: "A non-persistent E is called time-local since an object only exist as long as its hosting process does." This is as true now as it has ever been. That it is now possible to remap the [ URI => endpoint ] mapping is an important and useful advance, but it is not object persistence. Tyler

Press Release:

FAU Presents Annual Juried Student Art Exhibition
BOCA RATON, FL (March 9, 2009) – The 2009 Annual Juried Student Art Exhibition at Florida Atlantic University will open with a public reception and award presentation on Friday, March 20 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Ritter Art Gallery on the FAU Boca Raton campus, 777 Glades Road. The exhibition presents approximately 50 works of art in all media selected from more than 200 submissions. FAU students can submit up to three works each and the juror, who is different every year, has complete autonomy in their selections. Three cash awards of $100 each are awarded, also at the discretion of the juror. The reception and exhibition are free and open to the public, and the exhibition will remain on view through Saturday, April 4.
The juror for this year's exhibition is visiting artist, Deborah Aschheim, a California-based sculptor and multi-media artist. Aschheim's work will also be on display in FAU's Schmidt Center Gallery as part of the Designing Intelligence exhibition, which is on display through April 4. Aschheim will give a public lecture on her work on Wednesday, March 18 at 7 p.m. in the Performing Arts Building, room 101. Aschheim's art, while abstract in form, is often concerned with memory and "nueral architecture," a term the artist uses in referring to the human body's "wiring." In its grandest sense, Aschheim realizes her work in large gallery installations with video components.
The Juried Student Exhibition is sponsored by FAU Student Government. The Ritter Art Gallery is open to the public Tuesday through Friday, 1 – 4 p.m. and Saturday, 1 to 5 p.m. Group and class tours are welcome at these and other hours by appointment. Programs at the University Galleries are made possible in part by the Palm Beach County Cultural Council; Florida Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, Florida Arts Council; and contributions from individuals.

Quin Snyder leaving Toros for 76ers
The big news of the day for Spurs fans may be Richard Jefferson opting out of his contract, but we have more. It was reported a couple of weeks ago, but became official today: Quin Snyder is leaving his position as head coach of the Austin Toros and joining Doug Collins' staff with the Philadelphia 76ers. Per the press release:
The Austin Toros today announced that Head Coach Quin Snyder has accepted an assistant coach position with the Philadelphia 76ers under new Head Coach Doug Collins. Snyder is the second head coach of the Toros, replacing the late Dennis Johnson in 2007. He is the 25th coach in the NBA D-League's history to promote to a NBA coaching position.
"We are thrilled for Coach Snyder and wish him nothing but success and the best of luck with the 76ers' organization,†said Toros General Manager Dell Demps. "Quin is a fantastic coach, great teacher, and a friend that I will personally miss.â€
"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to join the staff that Coach Collins has assembled and hope to contribute in whatever way I am able,†said Snyder. "Having spent the past week in Philadelphia, it is clear that this is an exciting time for the team and the organization in general and I am equally excited to have a role.â€
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Snyder will be with the 76ers "in a developmental role," giving the impression that he'll be working behind the scenes with players, not necessarily on the bench in game situations. Although it's unclear at this point.
Losing Snyder is a big hit to the franchise, as he had the valuable combination of improving his players and being a coach they enjoyed playing for. With as much stock as the Spurs put into the Toros franchise, expect them to take their time picking a replacement.

To encourage residents to come speak their minds, and at possibly a more-convenient time, the Freeholders have set a special public question-and-answer session before their regular meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 3.
It will be held starting at 3 p.m. in the Senior Center of the Route 31 County Complex, Gauntt Place in Raritan Township. The session is to run close to an hour before the Freeholders leave around 4 p.m. for a closed "executive" session at their normal meeting place, the Administration Building, 71 Main St. in downtown Flemington.
The closed session will be followed by the Freeholders regular public meeting at 5:30.
Freeholder Director Rob Walton suggested the special meeting, according to Denise Doolan, clerk of the Freeholder Board. The different format might be useful because each person is only allowed two minutes to address the Freeholders at the beginning at the regular 5:30 meetings.
While they are permitted to talk at length at the end of the meeting, that might be up to an hour after the session starts, depending on what all is on the agenda, Doolan noted.
