Wonder why healthcare costs so much?
Did you know Washington is one of only two states that require health insurance coverage of port wine stain birthmark elimination, denturists and prescription drugs?
One of only three states requiring coverage of naturopaths and chiropodists, and one of five states requiring coverage of massage therapists?
These are a few of the state-mandated benefits that contribute to the escalating cost of healthcare, which consumed 22 percent of the state budget in 2000 and now accounts for 28 percent.
Washington is among the six highest in the nation in insurance mandates, with 50, and lawmakers have been trying to get a handle on the situation for years.
A 14-member healthcare commission was created during the 2006 session and told to come up with a five-year health reform plan by Dec. 1, improving access and lowering costs. Co-chairs are Gov. Chris Gregoire and Sen. Pat Thibaudeau (D-Seattle).
House Republicans also have begun a series of community forums open to all to offer ideas, although the one just held in my area didnt seem to be a high priority to the locals. Only 11 people attended, besides chair Rep. Beverly Woods (R-Kingston) and media.
Woods was a good sport, though. She didnt cut it short to fit the few. Eleven votes are 11 votes. The goal, she said, was to put the consumer back into the decision making. In the 1960s, the consumer paid the bulk of the cost of his/her own healthcare. The remainder divided about evenly between government and employers.
The picture is upside down now, with government paying the bulk of costs, then employers, with the consumer the least contributor. It was suggested that the reason for this is that it was in 1965 that Medicare and Medicaid kicked in.
You also may remember that a state audit of the Department of Social and Health Service spending on Medicaid, which is jointly financed by the state and feds, turned up the fact in April that DSHS spent nearly $1 billion for unauthorized services for illegal aliens and payments to persons using dead peoples IDs. And that was just in the fiscal year ending in 2005.
Its unresolved at this point whether we will have to pay back the feds the $75 million of their misspent money. Also, a new federal rule requires Medicaid recipients prove they are U.S. citizens. They can no longer just sign and say they are.
The loophole, however, is that existing applicants can stay on the rolls if they convince DSHS they are making a good faith effort to get the proof. Good old bleeding heart DSHS will, Im sure, give these folks all the time needed to produce proof. Years, if need be.
Personal responsibility is the last thing the in-control Democrats push for the needy, who are presumed to be in their pocket at election time because of their generosity with our money.
Their recruiting key is the dole.
There are other costs hard to whittle, such as the fact that the courts have ruled no one can be denied emergency room care, so many deadbeats go there to bypass a doctors office where they would be asked how they will pay.
Anyway, if you have any ideas how to lower costs, attend one of the meetings, or send them to the governor or your legislator or me.
Woods believes our Cadillac plan should be changed to a cafeteria-style plan where consumers can select coverage for what they need, not what the state mandates. Elderly ladies dont need coverage for maternity care. People wholl go to the grave with their own teeth shouldnt be paying for denturist coverage.
What do we do about those who rip us off by using the emergency room to avoid paying at all, or an overgenerous DSHS?
Think about it.

MOULTON, Ala. -- A Trinity, Ala., couple is accused of stealing Christmas presents from homes, then trying to return the stolen merchandise at a Wal-Mart, where they were caught on security cameras, the TimesDaily newspaper reports.
Shannon Alred, 31, 7124 Lawrence 221, Trinity, and his wife, Nikkie Burney Alred, 31, of the same address, face multiple charges and Lawrence County Sheriff Gene Mitchell told the TimesDaily he believes the arrests have solved a rash of burglaries and thefts."It seemed like this was a real case of the Grinch who stole Christmas," Mitchell said. "The Alreds actually had stolen Christmas presents under their Christmas tree."

This is a very quick guide to "Nortrom, The Silencer". This is not very detailed but just gives you an idea of how to play this hero. Some would suggest otherwise but this build is tested by me personally on different situations and i would just like to share it with you.
Team Role:
Early Game Role: Carry Farmer
Mid Game Role : Support - Semi Carry
End Game Role : Support - Semi Carry
Carry Farmer:
If you take a look at all his skills, you will realize that none of them are good supportive skills. No disable or slow, a f***ingly long cd silence and a skill that burns hp and mana but easily countered. So what you do you do early game? You farm like a carry hero for supportive items. Kinda weird, right? Nortrom really is a weird hero. At least there is one thing we know for sure (make it two): His Global Silence can give his team a big advantage in teamfights and his Glaives of Wisdom is his main damaging skill.
Support - Semi Carry:
By obtaining cheap early game items like RoB, Urn and Meka he can have a team presence. Since i won't be using CotS, I will use meka as a substitute to that skill. Effectively making him a support hero. Having int treads would give him the damage he needs in a teamfight. He can't just stand there do nothing. Heal anybody who needs it by using Urn afterwards. During this stage he still have to farm for items namely, sheepstick. With that he can't afford to get ganked and must farm safely. After a clash farm like hell.
Support - Semi Carry
Upon obtaining sheepstick, you will realize that his Glaives of Wisdom damage has dramatically increased. He also has good agi gain per level that by late-game his attackspeed has increased to the point that he can dps quite well. He wont stop at just hexxing (disabling) and silencing someone. He can and he will be able to kill it in that short period of time.
Item build:
4 or
You need to attack fast and the +8 int from treads helps you in farming as you have no other farming skill other than Glaives. His only way of farming and dealing damage is thru attacks be it with his orb or not. Switch it to str treads if you need more survivability.
Ring of Basilius is a good supporting and farming item for Nortrom. One of the better cheap items in the game.
Urn of Shadows is good on him. The regen on RoB is not enough for him to be able to farm neutrals quickly using glaives. This item provides him a little more survivability and supporting ability. This also allows you to switch your treads to int without being too squishy. Remember, Glaives is all you got for farming so let's make sure we can make good use of it.
Mekansm is your cheap source of usefulness and your main survival item. Keep in mind that since your Last Word aura really pisses off your enemies, you will most probably be focused. Vanguard is another alternative for survival but since it doesn't support your teammates well, I would suggest you go Meka. You could also purchase them both if you wanna get tanky. This could be viable if you already have a lot of dps-ers in your team and if you f*** up your enemies sooo much that just being alive would give your team a win. This is good when going up against two or more of these heroes: Nevermore, Sand King, Witch Doctor, Queen of Pain, Earthshaker, too many to mention all of them.
Guinsoo's Scythe of Vise is the best int-hero item. Especially on Nortrom who benefits a lot just by having a Mystic Staff. One of the strongest item in the game. You really need to farm this item. I mean really. Eul's and Orchid are weak substitutes for sheepstick. You need this item more than anything if you want to be strong late-gamer.
Extension builds are up to you. That's where your creativity and good assessment of the situation should come into place.
Honorable Mention:
One way to survive a clash and be able to deal insane dps is by using BKB. After Global Silence duration quickly click on BKB and you will be nearly unstoppable. Don't forget to hex and focus on the opposing teams dps-er at the same time.
Skill build:
Lvl 1 Glaives of Wisdom
Lvl 2 Stats
Lvl 3 Glaives of Wisdom
Lvl 4 Stats
Lvl 5 Glaives of Wisdom
Lvl 6 Global Silence
Lvl 7 Glaives of Wisdom
Lvl 8 Last Word
Lvl 9 Last Word
Lvl 10 Last Word
Lvl 11 Global Silence
Lvl 12 Last Word
Lvl 13 - 21 Stats
Lvl 22 - 25 Curse of the Silent
Though Curse of the Silent can be useful, i wouldn't make use of it for one main reason: It is counterable and doesn't help him during mid-game and late-game. Yeah, it is good during the laning phase but just how long is the laning phase? You can't use it for farming either. Unless this skill gets buffed anew, I wouldn't put a level in this skill. Again, it is mostly up to you. You could also put points to stats at level 9 and 10 if you feel like Last Word isn't gonna save your ass that much.
Good Allies
Anybody with a decent disable is a good ally to every hero so I would mention only a few with great synergies with him.
Noone benefits more with Global Silence than Sand King. With GS Sand King can do his feared combo even without BKB or Dagger.
Basically, any hero without a decent disable and/or escape mechanism is easy prey for the likes of Balanar. Silencing him only delays your death by a few seconds. He can also silence you before raping yo' ass. You better stay away from sight whenever you're against heroes like him.
Same as Balanar. To him you are nothing but "dog food".
You get the idea now? Heroes with great movespeed and has great early game killing capability are his worst enemies. If you plan to pick Silencer, make sure your opponents have chosen first or you'll see many heroes of his kind get picked to feed on you.
Nortrom at the Competitive Scene
There are only a few instances where I've seen a team pick Silencer and from what I've seen, none of these teams was able to maximize Nortrom's potential, and very few gets a win. Silencer is usually picked as a counter to heroes with great combo skills like Earthshaker, Nevermore and Witch Doctor. But due to his lack of ganking and supporting capability the team that picks him usually gets beaten easily. His CotS skill also doesn't prove useful against small skirmishes as it gave them almost nothing in terms of advantage. That only shows to prove that CotS is next to useless against competitive players. They play him as a straight support, not farming much for items and always present during ganks. That is the reason why he wasn't able to contribute much. I believe he needs at least a Mekansm to be somewhat useful. Contrary to popular beliefs, Nortrom is not a decent support hero. If your team is gonna pick him, make him farm a few items first, making good use of Global Silence when his team is ganking and Nortrom is farming neutrals. Make him a semi-carry hero able to dps and heal and annoy the shit out of casters. Do not focus solely on annoying the opposing team 'coz a Silencer without items would annoy noone except his teammates.
Where can I find replays?
I suggest you go to Dota Commentaries.com as they don't just give you replays, they also give some analysis of the item builds, warding and team play. Not to mention, they are commentating competitive games and not your ordinary pub games where any build would work.
If this guide has helped you in some way, please feel free to comment and/or rate my mini-guides. Thanks a lot!
Good luck! And remember, reading guides gives you ideas, but, only thru constant practice does one achieve greatness.

"True Cloud Security"
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Overview
The Internet is comprised essentially of a number of components -- World Wide Web, Instant Messenger (IM), Email, VoIP, and Peer-to-Peer networks. By many accounts, the largest of these by measure of consumption of overall bandwidth is Peer-to-Peer or P2P. According to independent, third-party studies, P2P accounts for roughly 70% of total internet bandwidth. This distinction is necessary to understand the security implications that are present today as a result of both the enormity of these networks and the inherent security challenges they pose.
File-sharing networks have been in existence for years starting most notoriously with the introduction of Napster in the fall of 1999. P2P networks have provided a gateway for users around the world to share digital content, most notably music, movies and software.
P2P networks have continued to grow and are incredibly dynamic in nature. Since 2005, P2P networks have grown at the rate of over 20% (CAGR). Today, worldwide P2P networks may have over 20 million users at any point in time. P2P networks are ever-changing as users join and exit constantly. The number of P2P programs or "clients" has grown to over 225, with many having multiple versions in use. Additionally, many of the programs are open source and, accordingly, subject to modification as users see fit. P2P networks are a worldwide phenomenon with users across wide ranges of ages, educational backgrounds and incomes.
The Extended Enterprise
Comprised of suppliers, partners, agents and remote employees, collectively these third-parties operate outside of the corporate perimeter and are responsible for 93% of data breaches that occur.
Dr. Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of The Ponemon Institute and Tiversa Advisory Board member states, "many of the measures we were told companies are taking to prevent data loss through P2P networks, such as firewalls, ID management, and monitoring of the World Wide Web, are completely ineffective against P2P files sharing disclosures."
Additional Research and White Papers
Information Concentrators
Throughout our extensive P2P research, Tiversa continues to see individuals that harvest a large number of files containing confidential and sensitive data. Tiversa calls these individuals Information Concentrators™ and in most cases, they are suspicious in nature. To learn more about the risks they pose to your organization,
contact us
Network Native™
Tiversa's systems operate directly as part of P2P networks and do not require your organization to add hardware or software to your network. Our solution is the industry's first of its kind and allows you to seamlessly integrate our service into your existing incident response and monitoring workflows with no time consuming and expensive installation work.
Inadvertent Sharing
P2P networks continue to grow in size and popularity due to the extent of the content that is present and available on the networks, that in many cases, is not available from any other public source. In addition to movie and music files, millions of documents, that were not intended to be shared with others, are also available on these networks. It is this unintentional sharing that we refer to as inadvertent sharing or disclosure.
Inadvertent sharing happens when computer users mistakenly share more files than they had intended. For example, they may want to share only their music files or a large academic report, but instead expose all files on their computer's hard drive allowing other users to have access to their private or sensitive information. This can occur via several scenarios. These scenarios range from user error, access control issues (both authorized and unauthorized), intentional software developer deception, to malicious code dissemination.
Providing open and direct access to information while protecting sensitive and confidential data is one of the greatest challenges enterprises face in today's world. With a discerning need to control the flow of information into and out of corporate networks, increased government regulation, and rapidly evolving legislation, the fact that data breaches are commonplace still exists. With the emergence of cyberintelligence solutions in recent years, there is a heightened realization that the corporate perimeter has indeed dissolved and the need to address Extended Enterprise risk is shaping the way we do business.
Cyberintelligence provides visibility beyond the border of traditional security measures with the real-time discovery of threats and vulnerabilities.Typically used as an extenstion of existing enterprise security practices, such as DLP, firewalls, policies, and encryption, cyberintelligence services include internet and peer-to-peer (P2P) monitoring, anti-phishing, counterfeit detection and brand-monitoring.
These solutions aim to address the Extended Enterprise, which is comprised of suppliers, partners, agents and remote employees outside of the corporate perimeter. Accounting for the
of data breaches, the Extended Enterprise has become a target of interest in recent years as mainstream media continues to report sensitive data being breached by Fortune 500 companies.
Cyberintelligence can help organizations protect the loss of intellectual property, thwart external vulnerabilities and physical security threats, as well as guard against copyright and brand infringements.

Just a few years ago, our occasional Middle Lane contributor, L.M. Sixel, could count on her mom coming to Houston for regular visits. But the trips are getting harder for the octogenarian. Sixel explains:
My mom is 84 years old, and she's still running from her daily water aerobics class to her bridge games to feeding the homeless when it's her church's turn to provide the daily lunch. And I can usually lure her down to Houston when her grandchildren are performing in a school play or doing something else that's special.
But the Energizer Bunny is slowing down. Mom says she's not quite up an air trip right now. Her leg has been bothering her, and the pain pills make her head a little fuzzy. And she doesn't want to leave the spouse behind, either. The last time she did last fall, he fell as he was raking the leaves and ended up in the emergency room.
So my big question: When do you go home and find out if everything is okay? How many times should you hear, "the doctor said it's really nothing," that you should go find out yourself?
(This is Claudia again. I'll be out and about today, so I apologize in advance for a delay in posting comments. But please, put down your two cents, and I'll post them ASAP.)

Pros: Well constructed, has good bios options for overclocking, ACControl, 8+2 power design, and ... was able to fit a cooler on the VRM's. Board came with f2 bios making it ready for my 1055t.
Cons: f3a bios has something to do with a sound fix but it messed up my ram timings and would not boot with previous set timings. weird thing went back to f2 bios everything good again G.skill ripjaws 1600 6-8-6-20 with 1055t 4.2ghz (14x300) (had no sound issues don't care about f3a bios)(maybe forgot to set ram to 1.6v cause it defaulted it to 1.5v)
Had a weird little issue with usb ports. I use wirless mouse/keyboard receiver uses usb port and when digital camera is hooked by front case usb my keyboard/mouse went dead. Swapped around usb cables from CM Storm case to motherboard fixed this issue with front case usb ports.
Was tired when I had these two issues so I consider it user error.
Other Thoughts: Bought a half dozen Gigabyte boards for builds and all of them have worked the first time and have been reliable.
No VRM cooling but aleast the holes are there for one to be added turning this into a good overclocking board.

What Antonio McDyess' retirement means for San Antonio
I'll keep this short. Jeff McDonald is reporting that Antonio McDyess is officially calling it a day.
The Spurs save 2.6 million on the non-guaranteed portion of McDyess' contract. Unfortunately, other than the inherent benefit of saving 2.6 million, this doesn't help the Spurs' cap situation. The Spurs are still tax payers. Their payroll is approximately 73 million, assuming San Antonio keeps Steve Novak.
There are three takeaways from this news.
First, the Spurs just lost their most attractive trade piece. McDyess' contract, only 50% guaranteed and expiring, could have delivered cap relief to another team in a trade package. Obviously, the Spurs are still capable of trading anyone on their roster, it's just that McDyess was an attractive, expendable piece.
Second, the Spurs currently feature a 4-man deep front court rotation of Tim Duncan, Matt Bonner, DeJuan Blair, and Tiago Splitter one week prior to the start of the season—a thin rotation during a typical NBA season and even more worrisome during this lockout-shortened campaign. (I'm not counting Steve Novak as a big.)
Third, apart from a trade scenario, the Spurs will have to improve their roster through minimum contracts and the tax payer's MLE, a three million dollar exception.
Thanks to @filipefurtado for adjusting the Spurs' cap numbers for me.

And attitudes like "it is never going to change is what kept history back from progressing. What if after Rosa Parls was arrested people just stepped aside and said it is what it is? What if we left a hole in the ground at the WTC and said it is never going to change.

Damn you are one dumb **** aren't you. I didn't realize them came so thick headed. I know there have been more tragic events you prick. Even now in Syria with over 100,000 dead. I am not undermining these events at all. It is not okay to make fun of any tragedy including 9/11. And of course I am more strongly impacted by the attacks. I ******* lived through it and saw the North Tower crumple. I have PTSD so yes I am more impacted by 9/11 and more emotionally moved and scarred by it. It is the "biggest ******* deal" of my life and you have to learn to sit the **** down and act like a moral human being you heartless ****.

If anybody wants to know, the deleted comment by outerspacebar said:
"I really can't stand these posts. As a New Yorker who lived through 9/11 and still cries over it I can say that this is just morally wrong. For **** sakes they are still finding body parts of the victims today. Over 2,000 people died and you make jokes about it. Really ****** up."

Also, he wasn't telling him to shut up because he wasn't laughing, but rather because he made a huge ******* hissyfit about it.

It's been 12 years.
At some point you have to get over it. Laughing at it is the best way to make light of an event.
And in all honesty, 2,000 deaths isn't that much, all things considered.

It's been almost 12 years it's time to get over it and not get upset about jokes.

Album Review
Collectors' Choice Music's exceptional restoration of
Arthur Lyman
's Hi-Fi Records catalog gathers the two mid-'60s titles
Latitude 20
(1967) and
(1968) onto this single CD. In keeping with the other entries in their thorough overhaul, the fidelity is remarkably good -- especially when considering the four-plus-decade-old source materials.
(vibraphone/marimba) continued his successful run of long-players, filling each with a blend of concurrent pop numbers and familiar folk songs from around the globe, not to mention a sampling of show tunes from the stage and/or screen. Of course regardless of the material's origins,
would always rework it into a singular blend of tiki torch exotica and skillfully scored jazz. The opening title composition of
Latitude 20
is not as exotic a locale as the track might infer. Truth be told it is the location of the Torrance, CA-based bar where
and crew recorded the album. That doesn't seem to affect the warm island sensation of "Hawaii" or the outstanding main theme of the motion picture The Day the Fish Came Out (1967). Continuing with movie music, the Black Orpheus (1959) selection "Manha de Carnival" and the title song from Island in the Sun are easily among the best of the lot.
is nothing if not a reflection of its era. One need listen no further than the semi-clad psychedelic images on the LP jacket to get a wink and nod at what
's listeners were looking for. His aural concoction of even and unobtrusive Polynesian ambience makes no attempt to disguise exactly what a name such as "Aphrodisia" would suggest. The pop hit "Sunny" is a winner as
keeps the melody light and relaxed. The native "Mexico," "One Paddle -- Two Paddle" -- complete with rare vocals, no less -- "Kyoto," the Hawaiian "Kuu Ipo Ika Hee," and the humbling "All My Trials" are equally worthy of discovery. Additionally, they uniformly stand as examples of the wide-ranging artistry that
brings to his craft. To much the same extent -- as the sexy "O O" reveals -- he certainly isn't afraid or inhibited when the setting is appropriate.

Close to racetrack, price makes it worth to book just for showers and AC alone.
Everything was out of date and poorly maintained. The AC ran cool though, and shower was hot.
Clean, comfortable rooms. Nice pool area. Good breakfast.
There is nothing I didn't like.
Room needs updating
All staff at this hotel were extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again!
Quick check in and check out. Decent breakfast and room was clean.
Mattress was less than comfortable but not terrible.
Owners very nice, as were all the staff. Clean rooms in good working order. Convenient location for our river rafting on the Mohican, Malabar Farm visit, and trip to state park. Good place to lay your head down for the night. Very quiet. Comfortable beds. Great value for the price!
Best stay at a Hampton in a long time !
Location close to highway and restaurants. Super comfortable bed.
Overall comfortable bed and bath
Didn't like no freezer in fridge and only ice machine was on first floor so had to travel multiple floors with ice bucket to get any ice
At check in it was 50 mph winds and rainy, and hotel employee came out with two umbrellas to assist us in coming in with our luggage. That was so kind of him. Our room was stellar clean, and the breakfast buffet was out of this world!!
Clean Rooms.
Unfriendly staff.
Clean and comfortable room.
Advertised Paperview channel not available, HBO did not come in, water stop in bath tub was broken, "free" breakfast was not free- $20 limit
The price range and overall cleanliness were good. The staff were extremely courteous and friendly. I would recommend the Super 8 to a budget conscious adult visiting the Mansfield Area.
The bed had seen better days. It was really firm, there was a hole cut into the side of the box spring.
Good price. Plus breakfast
Several orange Kady bugs in the room. Did not order a smoking room. We are non smoker s. So the room smelled if smoke
The location. My room was nice, and given that area of Ohio in general, it's a good value for the money. If you need to stop for the night, the location is excellent. It's right by I-71, and I didn't hear the highway from my room.
Relative to the general area, I can't think of anything that stood out as a negative.
There were cockroaches
Room smelled like stale cigarette smoke, beat up furniture, Rusty clothes rack- really? Check in clerk stated that rooms were recently remodeled, maybe new paint & carpet but not much else, like putting lipstick on a pig.
The hotel is a great price and I like that they offer AAA discounts through the website. Check in and check out were very simple processes. Hotel was pretty clean, bathroom was very clean. It served our purpose pretty well. If youre a fan of horror movies, the boarded up restaurant on property and peeling "have a nice day" signs are enough to make you want to set up a shoot here. Nearby are a strip club and a fireworks store, so, basically anything you could ask for.
Only two pillows available in the room and they were pretty flat. The place is a little run down but mostly nice. The showerhead made an awful screeching noise our first night, but the second night it had magically resolved itself. On the morning we were to check out we were woken up around 9:00 by the owner of the hotel knocking on the door. He woke multiple times, and when my boyfriend went to get the door, the owner didnt say anything, just walked away. Check out wasnt until noon so we werent exactly pleased to be woken so early.
The price for my brother and I it worked out ok, I don't think my wife would be as happy. old and remodeled bathroom and tiles grout was pretty bad in need of cleaning.
Cheap place to sleep along the route.
Location is very convenient. Friendly bar and dining right next door.
We were made to feel welcome from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Everyone was kind and constantly concerned if we needed anything/if everything was to our liking. It felt more like a B&B then a hotel chain.
The price. Not dirty and quiet.
It isn't the nicest place. Old and needs some work.
The person I talked too, I could not understand. She was very rude..
The lady at he front desk was nice. The price was good - ---$ can't beat it!
The bathroom floor was sticky. The shower was outdated. There was no remote control for the TV.
The room and hotel were very clean. The staff was friendly and accomodating. Overall it was a nice experience.
The fridge didn't work and the heater smelled like something was burning when you turned it on, probably wasn't run for a while, but the fan worked ok.
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an

Notre Dame cruises past Church Point
CROWLEY – Notre Dame's Pios have been successful in taking advantage of their opponent's mistakes lately and Thursday was no different when the Pios hosted the Church Point Bears .
The Pios (9-10, 3-1) capitalized on six Church Point errors and exploded for 13 hits in a 12-1 District 5-AAA victory over the visiting Bears. The game was halted in the fifth inning due to the mercy rule.
"I was real happy about the things we did to get runners in tonight," said Notre Dame coach Tim Robichaux. "We just ran ourselves out of one inning where we had the top of the lineup coming up with people on base and we didn't even score a run. Those things can't happen. We can't run ourselves out of innings when we chances to score runs with the top coming up."
In all, the Pios had 21 base runners on the night. But only four of their 12 runs were earned.
Church Point's only run crossed the plate in the top of the first inning and was also unearned. Seth Thibodeaux drew a walk to start the game and eventually scored on a Notre Dame error.
Church Point committed four errors in the first inning, leading to a 2-1 advantage for the Pios.
Notre Dame extended its lead by scoring four earned runs in the third inning on six hits. Chance Oustalet, Mitch Corzine and Tim Vondenstein each recorded RBI singles in the frame.
The flood gates really opened in the fourth when Notre Dame sent 10 batters to the plate.
The Pios mixed in four hits with two Church Point errors and one walk to plate six more runs, all unearned.
Back-to-back, one-out errors set the table for Corzine, who came through with a two-run single to center to start things off. Following a walk to Vondenstein, Zack Abshire and Ryan Leonards each singled to drive in two more runs. Pinch hitter Ben Broussard added the finishing touches with a two-run single to left.
"I feel we hit the ball well tonight," said Robichaux.

Welcome to the second edition of the WWE and TNA Power Rankings, also known as "The Phantom 15."
This past week in wrestling saw a lot of changes happening in both the WWE and TNA, so there are plenty of changes and new faces that have been added to the list.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the concept, there are three qualities I judge for a wrestler to make it into top 15 of the list.
They are: consistency, in-ring craftsmanship, and positive momentum building in their current feuds or expected matches.
With any rankings, questions will form about why a wrestler made the list and why another one did not.
If you have any questions or feel I might have left someone out, let me know in the comments section.
If enough people agree with you, the wrestler will have a guaranteed spot in the next week's power rankings.
With that out of the way, let The Phantom 15 begin.

U kidding right? Besides being android 6 hours of video is pretty bad, pretty much my Z1 can do 10 hours of video so it is not trolling, mostly complaining on the battery which people were afraid in the first place, they should have added a 3000 mah no doubt and since battery is no replaceable getting a powercase to make.it live longer will make ur phone bulky
43. GrapeEyes (Posts: 248; Member since: 01 Sep 2013)
Firstly I am not your mate. You can call me GOD!!
Secondly don't even dare compare the AWESOME LUMIA 1520 to the Nexus 5 rubbish that dies out before 12pm and the pathetic yellow shade on the crappy camera.
Nexus is over!! in two months local councils will provide bins just for Nexus 5 to be put in.

Looks great, I must say :) but why did Google skimp on the battery??? 2300mAh is ridiculously small for a phone with a 5inch HD1080P display.
21. WHoyton1 (Posts: 1635; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
Im not to worried about the battery i just carry around a supply charger anyway and this phone is definitely my next device!! Waiting till 9:30 pacific time thats apparently the time guys!!

32. sniper1087 (Posts: 508; Member since: 31 Dec 2011)
I have to admit the 1020 has the best camera, nothing comes close, and I have the Z1 and the 1020 is better except in white balance.
35. CX3NT3_713 (Posts: 2275; Member since: 18 Apr 2011)
Well , nothing a update can't fix :-)
38. sniper1087 (Posts: 508; Member since: 31 Dec 2011)
Agreed and well thats up to nokia to fix, i am not sure if you noticed the yellowish tint it leaves in dark scenes, and even if you adjusts the white balance manually, it still stays there for some reason.

Can anyone keep a secret anymore??
33. jian9007 (Posts: 22; Member since: 20 Nov 2012)
I can't wait until it's released. As for everyone complaining about the 2300mAh battery, get over it. It's 1080P, yes, but it's only a 4.95" screen running stock Android with Kit Kat (which allegedly has better battery manangement than Jelly Bean). By comparison, the iPhone 5S only has a 1560mAh battery so it could be worse. And Iphone only has a 4" screen but still, 1560mAh is crap. If you want a bigger battery get the Note 3 or LG G2. 2300mAh is the same as the HTC One so it's not bad.
There are always things to be compromised on a Nexus phone. Non-removable battery, no SD slot, non high-end camera, only a 1.3MP front-facing camera, etc. But for a great price, you get a pretty damn nice phone unlocked, and running stock Android. At least it doesn't have that glass back anymore and lets you have 32GB built-in storage.
36. AfterShock (Posts: 3698; Member since: 02 Nov 2012)
Cash in my pocket, I am scoring a couple Nexi.
My old nexi will live along my new in harmony.
To bad wp didn't update its older phones instead of cutting them off. Oh well, that's number one reason they are in the spot they're in, near last.
37. Android4Ever (Posts: 86; Member since: 12 Aug 2013)
2300mAh? And its not removable? This phone already sucks A$$...
39. sniper1087 (Posts: 508; Member since: 31 Dec 2011)
Man I dont know what to tell you, but agreed 100% with you, a 5 inch display with 2300 and S800 which if we go back to the HTC One which I tested recently the battery was pretty bad compared to phones that came out Q4 and with the S600 which is more power efficient supposedly and doesnt run as hot, makes me wonder if the nexus can even hold a candle to what the S4 and htc one gets. Very dissapointed to hear camera is average, and speakers I wonder how loud will they get.
41. youdug (Posts: 27; Member since: 19 Jul 2013)
they included the 3.4 kernel and not the 3.10. i was really looking forward to that.

16 GB Nexus 5 in stock at CarPhone Warehouse in Reading. They arrived this morning according to the clerk. They have 16 GB in black and White, but no 32 GB models. They would have sold it if they had a price, but none was on the system. I have a photo of the box
45. Takeharu (Posts: 210; Member since: 28 Oct 2013)
€499,-!!!! Look at pic 9 next to the €0,- on contract...
That's absurd, that isn't how you price a Nexus!

Mayawati Sounds Election Bugle
Lucknow: Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Tuesday condemned the Congress-led UPA Government and Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party (SP) Government in Uttar Pradesh for being anti-Dalit.
Addressing thousands of her supporters at the Ambedkar Park here on the sixth death anniversary of her mentor Kanshi Ram, Mayawati said: "I strongly condemn the Congress government at the Centre for not declaring a day of mourning in the country when Kanshi Ram died."
"October 9 was declared as a state government holiday by us, but that was rescinded by the Akhilesh Yadav Government three days ago," she added.

Ryan Seacrest knows a lot about Denise Richards's daily activities these days -- including her romantic life.
The Idol host, whose company is producing Richards's upcoming reality show, recently revealed that the former Mrs. Sheen was out with a new man.
"I can tell you she is on a blind date tonight," Seacrest, 33, told PEOPLE during a Details magazine party to mark its 3rd annual "Mavericks" issue, with Seacrest on the cover.
The Idol host was mum about the lucky guy's name. But there is one thing Richards is certainly making a point to do: Erase her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen, from her life.
On Friday, Richards, 37, formally requested a family court to legally restore her maiden name from "Denise Sheen." Over the weekend, she also visited a tattoo parlor where she had her "Charlie" tattoo changed into a fairy -- in front of cameras for her show, her rep confirms.
The actress and single mom is set to star in an untitled E! series that will follow her as she "navigates Hollywood, romance and motherhood," according to the network. The show, to be produced by Seacrest's company, will debut this summer.
Even before the cameras started rolling, the series had made news over the objections raised by Sheen, who was unhappy with plans to feature their two daughters, Sam, 3, and Lola, 2. (In January, a court commissioner granted Richards permission to include the children on the air.)
Regarding how the kids will factor into the series, Seacrest said, "How we deal with it really is up to her and Charlie. If she wants them to be a part of it, and if its okay, then great. If not, that's her call. It really is up to her.
"This series is about her life and what she is doing with it. It's her call. She's an executive producer on the show, so I'll leave it to her." --Scott Huver, Stephen M. Silverman and Julie JordanLandov; Amanda Edwards/Getty

Customer Reviews for Sherborn Day Spa (4)
October 1, 2010
Best Massage Around
I am just home from my second massage given by Kelly at the Sherborn Day Spa. I had been putting off trying to find a good masseuse because it is so costly, especially when one is given a subpar massage. But finally my leg and back pain put me on the search again. When I called to make the appointment I was hesitant to have a massage given by women. At this point in my life I had only received good massages from men and didn't feel that women had the endurance for deep muscle work. While the receptionist said I could have a man masseuse, she encouraged me to give Kelly a try. I considered the benefits of my experience with men masseuses versus an underlying discomfort of having a male masseuse and decided to give Kelly a try. I AM GLAD I DID. KELLY IS FANTASTIC!! I LITTERALLY HAVE TEARS OF JOY AT THE RELIEF I FEEL WHEN SHE IS DONE. She so understands muscles and where and how to work on the painful areas. She is also professional and kind. What a great combination. The spa is pricey but one really does get what they pay for. I too recommend booking appointments in advance to get the discount.

two poor experiences
I have been to the sherborn day spa twice and have NOT BEEN IMPRESSED AT ALL! I find the staff moderately friendly and the services overpriced for what you get. The atmosphere is more like a hair salon than a true spa experience. No one offers drinks, and there is nothing to munch on. I was pregnant the first time I visited, and I was scheduled for a massage and pedicure. I had to leave to grab some crackers across the street to make it through both treatments. I dont expect a full course meal, but some fruit, crackers, etc. to tide you over would be nice. My first experience was for an eyebrow wax, and the technician was sick as a dog! She was coughing and sniffiling throughout the treatment which was inches from my face. The poor girl really needed to be home, not spreading her germs to her clients. I just was put on hold at 8:00 a.m. on a Saturday morning. After waiting for several minutes it went to a staff managers voicemail. I'm just trying to book an appointment. No thanks, I will take my business elsewhere.

A treat from my bridal party
I got married in October of 2009 and my bridal party surprised me with a spa day. All of us had multiple services - we had a blast. I never though that in central Massachusetts there could be such a top noch spa. A fantasic time - clean, peaceful and a very professional staff. I especially liked that the massage area was separate from the other services like nails.

Excellent Spa for a Massage !
I was desperately in need of a theraputic massage for recently diagnosed TMJ and severe migrane headaches from work stress. I found the Sherborn Day Spa and recently completed 6 weeks of once a week 1 1/2 hour deep tissue massages with Kelly Love. The results are incredible ! My headaches have stopped and my dentist told me my TMJ symptons have greatly improved. The Sherborn day Spa is clean, elegant and the massage rooms are comfortable, with warm tables, comforting music- water sounds and spa shower available after the massage if preferred. Kelly is a fantastic massage therapist with strong fingers and an excellent technique. I highly recommend you ask for her. She is professional and really works on the areas you need most. I can't say enough about how much her massages have made a huge difference in my life. I hope to continue as long as I can afford to. They do offer a 10 % discount if you book 4 appointments in advance, which is worth doing if you are going to do more than one massage. Give Kelly a try- you won't be disappointed.

on May 11, 2013 - 12:13 AM
The season came to end for the Niagara softball team Friday afternoon, as the Purple Eagles were eliminated from the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament in Poughkeepsie.
The Purple Eagles (16-30) started off by knocking off top-seeded Siena, 6-3.
The game actually began on Thursday but the game was suspended due to weather in the fifth inning and resumed on Friday morning.
Siena had tied the game, 3-3, in the sixth but Niagara regained the lead in the seventh on a bases-loaded walk and added to its lead with a two-RBI single from Alexis Wayne (Depew). Jenn Sansano (Clarence), the MAAC Pitcher of the Year, struck out 12 batters in the win.
But the day went south for the fourth-seeded Purple Eagles as they dropped games to Marist and Fairfield.
Niagara lost, 2-0, to the Red Foxes as Janine Lalli had a two-run home run in the fourth to give Marist the win.
Sansano (11-12) took the loss, giving up the two runs on four hits with eight strikeouts.
The Purple Eagles lost to No. 2 Fairfield, 3-1. The Stags took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Kristen Filicia stole home.
The lead went to 3-0 when Filicia hit a two-run, two-out home run in the third.
Niagara got a run back in the fourth on an RBI double to right-center by Ambur Farmer. The Purple Eagles left five runners on base.
Kim Bryson (3-15) took the loss, tossing 5∑ innings and giving up three runs on seven hits with five strikeouts.
Green, Tanksley to Hofstra
Hofstra made it official on Friday, announcing that guards Juan'ya Green and Ameen Tanksley were transferring to the school. The ex-Niagara players are following coach Joe Mihalich, who took the head job at Hofstra.
Green was the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year in 2012 while Tanksley averaged 11.3 points and 6.0 rebounds this past season. The players will have to sit out the 2013-14 season due to NCAA transfer rules.
Siuciak, Jones win titles
University at Buffalo's Emma Siuciak won the Mid-American Conference title in the heptathlon at the conference track and field championships in Akron. The sophomore won the title with 5,388 points.
Jonathon Jones won the shot put title with a throw of 63-7¾. The junior from Portville won the indoor MAC title.
Also for the Bulls, junior Rachel Roberts took third in the shot put with a throw of 50-11½ while Katie Sanders finished second in the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase, breaking her own school record with a time of 10:45.99.

My girlfriend had a consultation at the gym we both use yesterday, including a bodyfat reading and some 'nutritional advice'
According to the member of staff she spoke to, she should only eat one yolk for every three eggs, eat wholemeal bread, avoid red meat (especially pork for some reason) and consume 2000 calories per day to maintain weight.
I was actually seething when she told me all this on the phone last night but it has had a good effect because she has now agreed to try a paleo lifestyle for the next 30 days and see how she feels. I'm over the moon that she actually ASKED for me to help her as we've only been seeing each other a short time and I wanted to try and bring her on board but didn't want her to feel like I was trying to change who she is. If only she'd had her consultation with either of the two paleo members of staff from the gym!

Philippe Lamoureux became the second goaltender this season to shutout the Peoria
Rivermen this season as he backstopped the Abbotsford Heat to a 2-0 win. He faced just 22 shots and helped stop all
seven Rivermen power plays en route to his first shutout of the year.
Rivermen were outshot in the opening frame 17-4 and but trailed only 1-0 in
large part to the effort of Jake Allen. At 18:08 Bryan Cameron tapped in a Ryley
Grantham feed in front through the legs of Allen for his fifth of the year.
Stefan Meyer also picked up an assist on the goal.
Heat struck on the power-play in the second period. T.J. Brodie fed Jon Rheault
in the bottom of the right circle and he one-timed his sixth of the year by the
blocker of Allen. It was the first and only power play goal for the Heat in 21
chances against the Rivermen this season.
Heat outshot the Rivermen 37-22 in the contest and 10-4 in the third period. The Rivermen were held off the board on all
seven power-play chances, the first time this season they have come up empty
with at least six opportunities in the game.
It also marked the first time this season the Rivermen have allowed two
goals or less in a game and failed to win (24-1-0-0).
Rivermen continue on their four game road trip on Saturday at 2 p.m. in Toronto
against the Marlies. The game can be
heard locally on 96.5 ESPN Radio or online on www.rivermen.net.

The ICOMOS Canada Congress is an opportunity to re-examine the concept of setting and to evaluate how effective conservation principles, policies, laws and regulations are in protecting settings.
1.Defining the setting of monuments and sites:
2.Vulnerabilities within the settings of monuments and sites:
3.Evolving townscapes and landscapes within their settings:
4.Cultural routes: the challenges of linear settings for monuments and sites
Congress papers, presented in either English or French, will be limited to 20 minutes. Include a Cover Letter (one page), an abstract (no longer than 250 words) and a Resume (one page) and SUBMIT BY JULY 11, 2005.
Format: Please submit via e-mail as a text message and as an attachment to: firstname.lastname@example.com Visit: www.icomos.org for details.
ICOMOS CANADA will be sending a delegation to the ICOMOS International 15th General Assembly and Scientific Symposium in Xi'an, China, 17-21 October 2005.
The concept of setting was addressed 40 years ago in the Venice Charter of 1964, the seminal text that underpinned the foundation of ICOMOS in Venice, Italy. Many national charters including ICOMOS Canada's Deschambault Charter, 1982, and the Appleton Charter, 1983, further developed the importance of setting. The Burra Charter of ICOMOS Australia also stresses the importance of setting. In Canada, there is growing interest in heritage setting together with the development of provincial policies and federal initiatives to address the problem.
THE HISTORIC PLACES INITIATIVE, Ontario Ministry of Culture, is pleased to sponsor a pre-Congress workshop, Thursday September 29th, 2005, at the Historic Fort York.
The workshop will showcase an Ontario nomination to the Canadian Register of Historic Places. Using the Statements of Significance for the Historic Fort York and the ICOMOS Canada and International Conservation Charters, Ryerson University students and ICOMOS experts will present the results of a design charette applying the Conference theme of "Significance of Setting".

Don't you try to change me
I wanna live my way
Don't try to help me
I don't need your cures
Don't try to save me
I like to stay on the edge
Of this darken well
Where I'm going' to fall
Yes, I fall on and on
Day by day, you know I'm softly fading'
I need to fall on and on
Until' I lose myself away
Life's nothing for me and there's nothing I feel
Life's too much for me, is too hard to live
Life's nothing for me and I've never asked for this
There's something wrong inside me
Like someone else within
Just a constant kind of sadness
That doesn't make me live
Such a will of self destruction
That none maybe know
Like the depth of a darken well
Where I'm going' to fall

COLUMBIA Last season, South Carolina sometimes slid defensive end Melvin Ingram to defensive tackle so he wouldnt get double-teamed. Jadeveon Clowney took Ingrams spot, attracted a double team and gave the Gamecocks three ends among their four defensive linemen, including Devin Taylor, the other starter.
With Ingrams eligibility expired, Clowney and Taylor are now the starting ends. Defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward has only played Clowney inside at tackle a couple of times during spring practices, but might do it more during the season, since Clowney is a fearsome pass rusher.
Were probably going to look at that, Ward said. Well try to create as many opportunities as we can to get Jadeveon one-on-one, because if hes outside (at end), people are going to chip him (with an extra blocker). If you put him inside, theres a chance for one-on-one. But theres also a chance they could always turn the center to him and double-team him inside. Well have to figure out whats the best way to use him.
The biggest key to putting Clowney at tackle is finding someone to be the third end and attract double-teams, as Clowney did last year. Right now, Ward said that guy is junior Chaz Sutton.
Smith trying to play big
As USC tries to replace one of its best wide receivers, Alshon Jeffery, junior DeAngelo Smith finds himself in the mix at Jefferys former outside receiver spot, where sophomore Damiere Byrd and junior Lamar Scruggs also are. Receivers coach Steve Spurrier Jr. has said Smith is probably his top receiver right now. Smith is 6-1, three inches shorter than Jeffery, but he said he gained 10 pounds in the offseason and now weighs 205 as he prepares to play a position that requires physicality.
Youve got to play big, Smith said. Youre on an island with the corner the majority of the time, one-on-one. Either youre going to make a play or the corners going to make a play. I feel like Im playing bigger.
Smith said he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.43 seconds in offseason testing, so he has a bit more speed than Jeffery, who was listed last season at 229 pounds.
Backup QB spot unclear
Entering the spring, the quarterbacks behind starter Connor Shaw were, in order: sophomore Dylan Thompson, junior Andrew Clifford, sophomore Tanner McEvoy and senior walk-on Seth Strickland. Quarterbacks coach G.A. Mangus doesnt expect to finalize Shaws understudy until preseason practices in August.
Well worry about all that in time, Mangus said. Just trying to get them as many reps. (McEvoy) still needs to play and get reps.

Gibson getting bigger
USC has three offensive tackles for two spots: sophomores Mike Matulis (out this spring with a shoulder injury) and Cody Gibson, both of whom started at right tackle last season, and redshirt freshman Brandon Shell, a Goose Creek High graduate who is currently the No. 1 left tackle.
Cody Gibson is starting to look like an offensive lineman instead of a basketball player, said USC head coach Steve Spurrier. We expect him to be a lot better come September.
Gibson, the current No. 1 right tackle, was listed on the pre-spring depth chart as 6-7 and 278 pounds, which is six pounds lighter than his listed weight at the beginning of last year. Matulis replaced Gibson as the starting right tackle with three games remaining in the regular season.

Last month the good folks at the Animal Medical Center of Mount Pleasant had the idea to hold a supply drive for the Charleston Animal Society.
They got a list of items the shelter needed - and the shelter always needs something - and spread the word.
They printed up fliers, emailed their clients and even posted the list on Facebook.
A group of veterinarians knows, better than most, the kind of costs associated with running a nonprofit animal shelter, and they wanted to help.
They also wanted to show that the recent dust-up between the South Carolina Association of Veterinarians and the state's shelters was not indicative of how all vets feel.
The association is trying to pass legislation to curb the sort of services shelters can provide. The state organization says it is about quality of care; shelters say it's really about clinics cutting into some vets' business.
But it is nowhere near that simple, and has next to nothing to do with the state of affairs in the Lowcountry.
"It's just not how anyone I know feels," says Dr. Scott Senf, one of the vets at the Animal Medical Center. "We wanted the people at the SPCA to know that's not how we feel about it."
And did they ever show it.
In just three weeks, the Medical Center's lobby was half-filled with food, cleaning supplies, pet toys, animal crates and cases of peanut butter (don't ask).
"I don't think we expected the amount of donations we got," Dr. Steven Epstein says.
But hey, 'tis the season.
Part of the community
The Animal Medical Center has a long history of giving.
When Hurricane Katrina devastated Louisiana and Mississippi, the clinic filled two U-Hauls and a van with supplies and headed for the Gulf Coast. The docs stayed a week to help out.
And like a lot of local vets, they offer free office visits for pets adopted from the Charleston Animal Society.
That's just how they roll.
Mount Pleasant may be one of the largest cities in the state these days, but in many ways it is still a small town. And the attitude of the Animal Medical Center exemplifies that.
Take Epstein. When he was a student at Wando High, he helped out at the clinic after school. He went off to college, got his DVM, and now has his name on the door.
Some of the folks who come in still remember him as a kid working around the office.
That's the kind of story you can find at a local vet's office. These folks volunteer at shelters, take in animals when the society has them stacked in the halls.
They are just animal people, which means they are good people.
Joe Elmore, chief executive officer of the society, says this generosity from the vets does not go unnoticed.
"We wouldn't trade our vets for any others vets in the state," Elmore says. "We've got a great community of veterinarians."
It's the animals
Senf says the real credit for the Animal Medical Center's supply drive goes to all those folks who donated.
Some people carried in carloads of supplies. They brought in mops, bowls. One woman who saw the flier had never heard of the Animal Society. When they explained it to her, she donated two bags of food on the spot.
"People want to give, they just need an outlet," Senf says.
That's a nice holiday sentiment, and it has inspired the Medical Center to make its supply drive an annual event.
Goodness knows the shelter will always need the help. And luckily a lot of people around here always want to help out.
But that shouldn't be a surprise, especially around a place like the Animal Medical Center.
"That's why we're in this business," says Donna Krantz, the center's manager, "because we love animals."

Main :: POD Farm / POD Studio / TonePort
by chrisgd on 2010-01-12 12:00:16
1. Hello everyone, I'm wondering if I could connect my multi effects pedal on the POD Studio UX1. Is there any way to do this? And if it does, what programm can I use to hear me or record me using both things (POD Farm, GearBox, anyone)?
2. This question is a bit similar to the other one, if I can't (or can) connect my multi effects pedal with my POD Studio UX1, can I connect my multi effects pedal on the POD Studio to hear me on my computer using just my multi effects pedal? I mean, the POD Studio would be working as a sound card, so I could record what I play on the multi effects pedal. If i can do this do I need a program to hear me playing or can it work without out a program? If it needs one what program could I use to hear me playing (POD Farm, GearBox, any other)?
Thanks in advance.

HEBRON, Israel - The government decided against the forced expulsion of Jewish families living in Beit HaShalom in Hebron, which was to be carried out Wednesday, according to an order issued by the High Court.
Families who first moved into the building in March 2007 have presented legal evidence of the property's purchase, but objections by Arab residents have prevailed with the current government.
At the beginning of the week, the court gave the families 72 hours to move out of their homes, with the court assuming jurisdiction until the legality of the sale is settled.
But residents refused to obey the court order, vowing not to leave voluntarily. Five more families have moved in, including Shas Knesset member MK Nissim Ze'ev. And reinforcements are arriving every day.
On Thursday, Defense Minister Ehud Barak will meet with military and police officials to decide on a strategy to oust families from their homes, which may take place in the middle of the night to avoid media coverage.
The government's plan is stirring fears of a repeat of the bloody confrontation between thousands of police and the residents of Amona, a small community in Samaria, in February 2006, under then Prime Minister-elect Ehud Olmert.

I wonder if losing the initial bit of weight has caused a decrease in leptin levels, as can happen with dieting. Maybe try a day or two per week with a higher carb intake with things like sweet potatoes and rice to see if that can help? I've been experimenting with that myself, as I feel sluggish and hungry a lot too. It certainly sounds feasible, but in my case, spending a day eating sweet potatoes and sushi doesn't feel like it really accomplished anything. To be fair, I think I may have only reached something like 150g of carbs for that day and I'm not certain that is enough for a leptin response.
I hope some people here have some good ideas to help you. They're pretty smart.
