LOGAN, Utah - Utah State women's basketball will have its season extended as the Aggies will host South Dakota in the Women's Basketball Invitational on Thursday, March 21 at 7 p.m. (MT) at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.
The Aggies are the third seed in the WBI West Region and will take on sixth-seeded USD. South Dakota is 17-15 this season. The Coyotes lost to rival South Dakota State, 56-53, in the Summit League Championship game. Nicole Seekamp leads the Coyotes in scoring averaging 14.2 points per game. Tempestt Wilson is second on the team in scoring with 12.9 ppg.
This is the third-straight season that Utah State has advanced to the postseason with back-to-back Women's National Invitation Tournament berths. Last season, the Aggies fell in the first round of the WNIT to in-state rival Utah, 69-58. In 2011, USU defeated Arizona, 103-95, for the first USU win in a postseason game since the AIAW Championship in 1977. The Aggies fell in the second round to BYU, 102-63, in Provo, giving USU a 1-2 WNIT record.
This is the second time this season that the Aggies and the Coyotes have met in the Spectrum. On Dec. 20, Utah State snapped a five-game losing streak with a 70-69 win over South Dakota. Senior guard Devyn Christensen drilled a three-pointer with 10 seconds left to propel USU to victory. The Dec. 20 match-up was the first meeting in the all-time series between the Aggies and Coyotes.
Four different Aggies were in double digits in scoring led by 25 points by Christensen. It was her seventh 20-point game this season. Senior guard Jenna Johnson added 16 points, while junior guard Jennifer Schlott scored 12 points and added a career-high eight assists.
Three different Coyotes scored in double figures with Wilson scoring 18. Margaret McCloud had a double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Seekamp added 14 points and eight boards.
South Dakota has experience in the WBI, defeating 2013 Western Athletic Conference Tournament champion Idaho in the first round in 2011.
This is the fourth edition of the WBI with Minnesota taking the championship in 2012, while 2013 WAC regular-season champion, Seattle, made the WBI's final four last season. In 2011, UAB captured the crown with Appalachian State winning the inaugural WBI in 2010.
The winner of the USU-USD game will take on the winner of the game between second-seeded Lamar and Presbyterian.
Utah State is the third WAC school to punch its ticket to postseason. Idaho will take on UConn in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, while Seattle will take on Saint Mary's in the Women's National Invitation Tournament.

Over the past year, more than 4,000 former professional football players sued the NFL, alleging that the league hid its knowledge of the risks of concussion associated with the sport. On July 8, 2013, the federal judge overseeing the case had ordered both sides to mediation, with a deadline of September 3, 2013. Yet on August 29, 2013, both sides announced that they had agreed to a $765 million settlement "that would fund medical exams, concussion-related compensation and medical research." The judge overseeing the case still must approve the agreement at a later date.
This development is just the latest fascinating twist in an ongoing national conversation about concussions in sports. According to the CDC, football is the sport with the highest numbers and rates of concussions. Despite wearing helmets, players are still exposed to numerous hits to the head throughout the course of a game, each of which can potentially cause a concussion. And it's not just the professionals who are at risk: the CDC has estimated that every year, 173,285 sports and recreation-related concussions are treated in children younger than 19 years.
Concussions are a form of brain trauma; they are often called mild traumatic brain injury or mTBI. The effects of concussions, however, can be anything but mild. In addition to short-term symptoms such as loss of memory and headaches, scientists are studying whether repeated concussions are also associated with various diseases including depression, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Concussion research is rapidly evolving, with continual debates over the extent and implications of this public health problem. Indeed, the controversial nature of the topic likely contributed to ESPN's decision last week to pull out of a forthcoming investigative documentary on head injuries in the NFL.
The NFL lawsuit was a form of mass tort litigation, meaning that many plaintiffs (the players) who have generally similar complaints participated in the suit. Dr. Daniel Goldberg, a professor of bioethics and interdisciplinary studies at East Carolina University, is one of the foremost experts on this issue, and recently published an article in The Journal of Legal Medicine addressing the ethical, legal and historical context of the litigation. Dr. Goldberg shares his perspective on this lawsuit and its broader relevance for population health.
The NFL litigation is an example of a mass-tort action that qualifies as "social impact litigation." Social impact litigation does not merely impose accountability on a regulated industry for public health harms it has caused. It also has the potential to contribute substantially to a robust public discussion on acceptable levels of risk and appropriate remedies for costs imposed on the public. Especially given the uncertainty that surrounds concussions in American football (i.e. how many concussions are too many, when is it safe to return to play, etc.), the information in the NFL's private hands would likely be valuable in assigning prospective as well as retrospective accountability. This lawsuit may help shape an informed and vigorous public discourse on neurological health and American football.
Finally, as the NFL itself concedes, professional football is an enormously powerful determinant of "football culture." Given that millions of children and adolescents play American football, the NFL's behavior as to concussions has significant implications at all levels of play.
This is known in American tort law as "assumption of the risk," or the notion that when an activity is obviously dangerous, any participant willingly assumes the risk of harm caused by the activity. There are several possible responses to these claims. The first is that, as I note in the paper, the defense may be unavailable where a defendant actively concealed knowledge material to the patient's participation in the activity. Thus, if the evidence produced during the litigation had revealed that the NFL knew of the danger, knew it was far more probable or that consequences might be much more severe than most players believed, an assumption of the risk defense might fail. Defendants may be liable for negligence where they increase the risks of an inherently risky activity, even if defendants owe no duty to protect participants from the risk.
The second response is that the assumption of the risk defense typically does not apply where the risks are unknown to the plaintiff. Even inherently dangerous activities may have unknown risks, and so at least some of the NFL plaintiffs could have argued that the true risks of long-term neuropathology were simply unknown to them at the time that they played. The second response is obviously a harder sell, and is problematic for the plaintiffs because, the earlier the time period in question, the more possible it is that neither the players nor the NFL knew of the risks to which the players were exposed.
Ultimately, all these arguments probably increased the likelihood that the plaintiffs would be willing to settle.
That is a difficult question to answer because the congressional hearings mark a dramatic change in the NFL's public face. The NFL's brand did not come through the hearings unscathed; reporting on the hearings, Alan Schwarz of The New York Times seized upon the comparison of the NFL to the tobacco industry. Nevertheless, it is probably fair to say that by the time leading NFL officials were called to testify before Congress, the problem had much more of the NFL's attention than it had previously.
Certainly, the NFL's public face and messaging regarding concussions and football has changed dramatically since the 2009-2010 hearings, but the substance of those changes remains open to question, in my view.
As to the first question, the authors' conclusions support the NFL's message that American football is ultimately safe so long as certain safety precautions are observed. This message subtly shifts responsibility from the most powerful groups (the NFL, the NCAA, etc.) to the local level (coaches, athletic trainers, and, of course, players themselves).
On the merits, I was shocked to read the authors' recommendations in that study. As journalist Patrick Hruby notes, there are some significant limitations pertaining to the methods of data collection and likely underreporting. Moreover, while I can see that proper tackling technique could have some conceivable effect on safety, the conclusion that children should engage in more full-contact practice as a means of minimizing mTBI flies in the face of an enormous amount of evidence regarding the risks that children face, especially children who have already experienced concussions.
More importantly, however, is the fact that the study underscores one of the NFL's key messages regarding concussions, namely, that rule changes and appropriate play can substantially reduce the incidence and sequelae of concussions. Not only is there little direct evidence to support this claim, it completely elides the fact that the risk of concussions inheres in the game itself. To the best of my knowledge, neither rule changes nor technological interventions (i.e. helmets) have been linked with any sustained decrease in the risks of concussion in football. The game of football itself is intrinsically dangerous (which does not necessarily imply that people should not engage in it).
The NFL concussion litigation resembles other social impact litigation related to industrial harm (tobacco, lead, vinyl, asbestos, etc.) in that each of them arises out of a private employment dispute between workers and industry, and yet relates to activities that impose significant burdens on the rest of society. CDC statistics indicate that traumatic brain injury results in approximately $77 billion in medical expenses and lost productivity, and there is little doubt that the bulk of those costs are borne by the public, families, and caregivers.
That said, concussions in football do not pose direct health harms to the non-football playing community in the way that lead and tobacco (i.e, lead paint, secondary smoke) do. So there are differences as well—football-induced mTBI is 100% preventable in a way that avoiding the health hazards of lead, tobacco, vinyl, and asbestos may not be. This was not necessarily a fighting issue in the litigation itself because whatever the social impact of the litigation, it was nevertheless at its core a private dispute between the NFL and some of its employees. The public health impact of the litigation is critical, but it is possible these differences weighed more heavily toward the likelihood of an early settlement.
That's a particularly good question! I tend to think that the NCAA and the NFL are such different entities and have such different relationships with their players that it is difficult to extrapolate from one to the other. The parties and stakeholders to the NCAA concussion litigation are watching the NFL litigation closely, of course.
Public discourse on tobacco changed dramatically once the private documents held by the tobacco industry were for the first time made publicly available through the discovery process of the tobacco litigation. (Discovery is a central phase of pretrial litigation in which the parties seek evidence from each other regarding the subject matter of the litigation. It can include demands to produce written documentation, to answer written questions, to make persons appear for depositions, etc.) Indeed, the idea, proudly noted by a tobacco executive, that "doubt is our product" appears in a memorandum produced via discovery. Examining private documents currently held by the NFL would have arguably had similar potential to alter public dialogue on the particular levels of risk to which it is acceptable to expose children, adolescents, collegiate athletes, and professional players. Scholars and activists continue to mine the immense amounts of data produced during the tobacco litigation, and their findings continue to illuminate our conversations on tobacco, harm, and risk.
I was not surprised by the fact of settlement, given the NFL's interests in avoiding the discovery process.
But the amount of the settlement surprised me, given that, after fees and costs, the average plaintiff will receive approximately $170,000. The lifetime costs of caring for a person suffering from traumatic brain injury and associated health complications are likely to be many times that figure. (The average lifetime cost of caring for a TBI survivor with severe disability exceeds $2 million.) But the plaintiffs were likely concerned about the difficulties of proving causation, and again, the NFL's interest in avoiding discovery probably pushed both parties towards an early settlement.

Hi Tom, thank you so much for your comment. I appreciate you sharing your story of your son's injury and your resulting advocacy efforts.
You may have already heard about it, but you may be interested in viewing PBS's upcoming documentary called: "League of Denial: The NFL's Concussion Crisis." This may hopefully encourage even more conversation at the national level. It will air on October 8, 2013.
All best wishes for your continued efforts to advocate that leaders and administrators address this safety issue that affects millions of players across the country. And most importantly, all best wishes for your son's good health.
Thanks. Looking forward to League of Denial next month. I was disappointed that ESPN backed out of the partnership with PBS on making it. I think an opportunity for ESPN to play an important role was missed.
By the way, I learned about 2X2 from your comment to the NY Times blog post Sunday, Making Youth Football Safe, Tackle and All, by Anna McDonald.
On Twitter, I advocate on sports safety issues in Maryland using @ConcussionMCPS
I recently started another Twitter account @EyesOpnFootball to comment on youth and high school football issues. Mainly from a parent perspective speaking to other parents about what I have learned over the last two years.
Kids are taught to keep their Heads Up when tackling. I think parents needs to keep their eyes wide open when deciding about football for their sons. There is a lot of information out there and getting it into perspective is a challenge. (No, an ImPACT baseline concussion test won't keep you from getting a concussion!)
I try to tweet for all parents who have to make the decision about football, including those who have said yes to it. Even after saying yes, parents owe it to their kids to keep learning.
I have been advocating to improving sports safety in Maryland after my son got a concussion playing JV football in Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS, which are the initials in the name and email address I use for this advocacy).
Two years ago, Derek Sheely died from head trauma sustained in football practice at Maryland's Frostburg State University, an NCAA Division III school. Last month, his family sued his coaches and the school's athletic trainer, alleging that Sheely's death resulted from dangerous "Oklahoma" style tackling drills in which students were ordered to repeatedly make contact with their helmets.
Sheely's family also allege that the coaches and athletic trainer ignored a bleeding gash that Derek sustained on his forehead from the drills and other concussion symptoms.
After reading the family's allegations, I wrote this letter to the Maryland Board of Regents, which is responsible for Frostburg State U. and the other Maryland state-run universities: http://www.scribd.com/doc/164011158/Md-Bd-of-Regents-Please-Discuss-2011-Frostburg-U-Student-Football-Death-at-Today-s-Meeting
A shorter version of the letter was published at this blog site.
In my letter, I pointed out that the minutes of Regents' meetings (available at their website) since Sheely's August 2011 death reflected no discussion of his death or of the broader issue of student safety when them compete in intercollegiate sports. Under the Regents' policy for intercollegiate athletics, no report to the Regents is required regarding sports injuries. (As the old saying in education goes, "you measure what you treasure.")
I asked the Regents at their August 30 meeting to discuss issues that members of every governing board for a university needs to ask themselves:
· Have you discussed sports concussions and other sports injuries at your meetings?
· Have you abdicated your responsibility on football head trauma by delegating decisions on limiting contacts to the NCAA rather than following the leads of the Ivy League and the Pac-12 Conference?
· For public universities, does limited sovereign immunity for coaches, administrators, and even Regents create perverse incentives that make sports more dangerous for students?
The Chancellor for the Maryland University System indicated that the Regents bylaws prevented them from discussing these issues at their August 30, 2013 meeting. I hope when the Regents meet on September 20, they will address these issues.

Alabama signed another No. 1 recruiting class on Feb. 3, but it's possible that the Crimson Tide isn't done yet.
As of now, two high school targets remain, but one likely won't sign a letter of intent with anyone.
Five-star receiver Demetris Robertson, tops at his position per recruiting rankings, signed a financial aid agreement with California, per Rivals. Robertson, who is from Savannah, Ga., maintained that he was going to decide late in the process. He is not bound to California, but California is bound to him and can have unlimited contact with Robertson.
Robertson, the nation's No. 14 overall prospect, visited Alabama officially during the last weekend of February. He has officially visited California, Notre Dame and Georgia Tech, per the Rivals report, and will visit Georgia later this month. Stanford is also a high choice for Robertson, if he can hit the academic standards needed to enroll.
Robertson will likely sign financial aid agreements and enroll at his school of choice in the summer.
New Orleans defensive end Sci Martin also announced that he would sign his letter of intent on Friday. The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Martin, a sack machine who had 33.5 sacks as a senior at McDonough 35, will choose between Alabama, LSU and TCU.
I will be signing this Friday... #UA #TCU #LSU— Sack Machine (@lilsci49) March 8, 2016
Martin, a three-star recruit, had been committed to TCU since November, but did not sign on National Signing Day. He officially visited Alabama in January.
Martin may be trending towards LSU or TCU more, but Alabama did miss out on Macon, Miss., defensive end Jeffery Simmons in February after he signed with Mississippi State.

PwC Report: Materials Shortage Threatens Manufacturing
Seven core manufacturing industries – including the renewable energy sector – could be seriously affected by a shortage of minerals and metals, which could disrupt entire supply chains and economies, according to research by PricewaterhouseCoopers.
In Minerals and metals scarcity in manufacturing: A "ticking time bomb", PwC surveyed some of the largest manufacturing businesses across manufacturing, chemicals, automotive, energy/renewable energy, aviation, metals, infrastructure and high-tech hardware to see what impact such a scarcity would have, and where, over the next five years.
The risk of scarcity across all sectors is expected to rise significantly, leading to supply instability and potential disruptions in the next five years, the report says.
Some 79 percent of respondents from the renewable energy sector are experiencing instability of supply, according to the report.
Among the minerals & metals on the "critical" list are:
- Lithium: used in wind turbines and lithium-ion batteries in hybrid cars
- Beryllium: used as a lightweight component in military equipment and in the aerospace industry. it is used in high-speed aircraft, missiles, space vehicles and communication satellites.
- Cobalt: a material used in industrial manufacturing. Used in jet turbine engines and automotive rechargeable batteries.
- Tantalum: used in mobile phones, computers and automotive electronics
- Flurospar: used in construction, cement, glass, iron and steel castings.
There have previously been accusations that China may be hoarding such materials.
Reader Comments
sounds like a good time to develop industries based around recycling these metals… right??
@newphase75 and educate the unaware who dump these metals into their trash receptacles.

Trickle-down Theater
The musical's name is a shocker: Urinetown.
Mark Hollmann, a New York musician, appreciates that. After all, even Hollmann was a wee-wee bit skeptical when Greg Kotis, an actor he'd worked with previously in an offbeat troupe, approached him with a concept he'd come up with on a European backpacking trip in the mid-'90s. Cash-strapped in Paris, Kotis had been forced to limit the number of times he could visit the city's pay urinals -- and that inspired his vision of a corporation that controls all of the world's lavatories. Set to song.
"It was the least commercial idea I had ever worked on," says Hollmann.
Urinetown: The Musical
Tuesday, September 9, through
Sunday, September 21
Buell Theatre, 14th and Curtis streets
$20-$60, 303-893-3100, www.denvercenter.org
This from a guy who had teamed with Kotis and Chicago's tiny Cardiff-Giant ensemble in producing such darkly satiric shows as Aftertaste! (the Musical), about a company that profits by marketing a trendy poison. Cardiff-Giant musicals were performed in a small theater, often before only a few dozen spectators. And yes, Hollmann acknowledges, they were money-losers.

TicketsMon., Oct. 24, 6:30pm
Still, Kotis and Hollmann shared a comedic vision, one that rebelled against the soft blue humor being dished out at the time by the once-cutting-edge Second City theater group. So Hollman didn't dismiss his pal's play about piss.
"The idea intrigued me," he admits. "After a couple of weeks, I had written the song 'It's a Privilege to Pee.' Greg loved it."
But to really get Urinetown: The Musical going, they needed a producer.
"The name was a calling card, and in certain quarters it got the kind of rejection or disgust you might expect," says Hollmann. At the New York Fringe Festival in 1999, though, "it became the buzz."
Backers emerged, and money started flowing. Urinetown, the raucous tale of two lovers stuck in a water shortage and an evil tycoon's plot to control all toilets, became the surprise hit of Broadway. Critics raved about the musical's over-the-top wackiness. The show won three Tony awards in 2002, including Best Book and Best Music and Lyrics. Hollmann and Kotis were swamped with offers.
Today, even as they're hard at work on another collaboration, Hollmann remains stunned by Urinetown's fame. And a national tour, which opens in Denver on September 9, will keep those warm feelings spreading.
"I'm nervous," he says. But he plans to go with the flow.

Interestingly enough, three of the six guys who warranted inclusion left the program before they exhausted their eligibility.
1. WAYNE CHISM: Strong enough to defend the post and quick enough to defend on the perimeter, "Wheezy" is a rare athlete indeed. A part-time starter in 2007, the 6-9, 245-pounder was The Man in 2008, 2009 and 2010. He averaged 9.1 points per game as a freshman, 9.9 as a sophomore, 13.7 as a junior and 12.6 as a senior. His career numbers show 11.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 23.8 minutes per game. He shot 46.2 percent from the floor, which included 32.3 percent on 405 attempts from 3. He also blocked 152 shots in 142 games (119 starts). A hard worker, he improved his foul shooting from 55.6 percent as a sophomore to 75.8 as a senior.
2. BRANDON CRUMP: He didn't look all that great doing it but Crump put up some strong numbers as essentially a four-year starter (2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005). The 6-10, 250-pound Texan started 100 of 115 career games and averaged nearly one block per game (107). He scored 7.1 points per game as a freshman, 11.0 as a sophomore, 14.8 as a junior and 11.3 as a senior. Crump made 56.7 percent of his field-goal tries at UT, with career averages of 11.0 points, 5.7 rebounds and 26.4 minutes per game.
3. MAJOR WINGATE: A backup in 2004 and '05, he started in '06, then was dismissed from the program before his senior season of '07. Wingate tended to get up for games against the better centers he faced, then disappear against lesser foes. The 6-10, 250-pounder averaged 3.6 points per game as a freshman, 5.0 as a sophomore and 10.6 as a junior. His career averages show 6.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 19.4 minutes per game. He shot a solid 50.9 percent from the field and blocked 70 shots in 89 career games (52 starts).
4. DUKE CREWS: After starting 18 games as a freshman in 2007, he was reduced to a backup role - partly due to a heart condition - as a sophomore in '08, then left the program by "mutual agreement" with Coach Bruce Pearl. Though undersized at 6-7 and 233 pounds, he was a fierce competitor who averaged 8.4 points per game as a freshman and 5.4 as a sophomore. His career stats show 7.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 17.7 minutes per game. Crews' shooting range was maybe 10 feet but he made 51.4 percent of his field-goal tries and registered 42 blocks in 61 games (20 starts).
5A. BRIAN WILLIAMS: Chism's backup in 2008, 2009 and 2010, "Big Baby" has started 15 of 94 games to date, with one season of eligibility remaining. He averaged 2.8 points per game as a freshman, 5.0 as a sophomore and 5.6 as a junior. His career numbers show 4.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 15.4 minutes per game. He is shooting 53.7 percent from the field for his career with 48 blocked shots. The 6-10, 270-pounder finished last season with a flourish, averaging 7.5 points and 10.3 rebounds per game in the Vols' NCAA Tournament run to the Elite Eight.
5B. ELGRACE WILBORN: As Brandon Crump's backup in 2002 and 2003, he started just five games in his two-season UT career before being dismissed from the program (for breaking Crump's jaw, ironically). Before departing, Wilborn averaged 3.1 points per game as a freshman and 2.9 as a sophomore. The 6-8, 230-pounder averaged just 3.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 15.0 minutes per game for his career but he was a 55.2 percent shooter and an intimidating presence on defense, blocking 61 shots in 58 career games.

The 000-17 Whiskey Sunset Auditorium model is truly one of our favourite guitars to come out as of late. It has a rich, warm sunburst finish that is just plain beautiful.
Skillfully crafted from a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides with grained ivoroid binding, a modified low oval neck with a Performing Artist taper, and a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, this guitar produces beautiful dynamic tones that has us all spellbound at the shop.

Try it - You will get over the smell.....
Posted by Reviewer2452282 on Sep 10, 2009
All summer long I suffered from this terrible rash on my back and chest that looked much like seborrheic dermatitis. Nothing I tried worked, and believe you me I spend a good bit of money on other products. I figured I had nothing too loose when I purchased the most in-expensive treatment yet. The results are wonderful, the itch that plagued me all summer has just about disappeared completely. I can only recommend this soap and after itching all this time I can handle that smell any day - it dissipates fast anyhow. Give it a try!! Now I just hope I have something left to show the dermatologist when I finally get to see him !!
Great for psoriasis
Posted by Reviewer2118948 on Apr 02, 2009
My husband has psoriasis on his scalp and this soap is the only thing that helps him to get rid of scales. Great natural product.

Wonderful all over soap
Posted by Reviewer3361326 on Dec 27, 2007
This is a wonderful all over soap with a very clean "green" smell and we even use it as shampoo.
Posted by Reviewer1002444 on Aug 16, 2008
I am so glad I found this soap.I feel so much cleaner after bathing with this soap.This soap has definitly done wonders with my dry skin. My scalp no longer itches and some of my adult acne has cleared up. I also like the smell of this soap, I dont smell like a chic when I go to work any more. Thanks to good ole pine tar.
Softens skin
Posted by Reviewer1723143 on Mar 31, 2009
This is very good soap. It smells strange at first, but you quickly get used to it - the rubbery tar notes don't linger on the skin while the greenness of it freshens. Leaves skin softer than before. Also, it remains firm and doesn't disintegrate into mush like some soaps. I plan to buy more.
excellent soap
Posted by Reviewer2414095 on Apr 17, 2011
love the smell , reminds me of camping in the great outdoors,, very good for skin problems ,,i,ve had exzma for years , this helped quite a lot to clear up the inflamed areas , with no irritation , I.ve just ordered some more , quick delivery too , to Australia,,thanks Iherb
helps with my eczema
Posted by Reviewer1277647 on Mar 15, 2012
pros.: helps with my eczema; long lasting. cons.: the smell
smells very strong like a camp fire
Posted by Reviewer2198598 on Jun 29, 2012
works really well on my face which is combination with breakouts. sooths the redness. not drying. did not do well for long lasting deodorizing of armpits.
Great results, manly smell
Posted by Reviewer2655732 on Apr 10, 2015
i ordered it because during pregnancy my skin is extra sensitive. I keep getting a crawling sensation and itchiness, especially at night around my shoulders, back, and rear. I read on a forum that this soap could help and it HAS!!! It's so nice to not feel so itchy all the time. I'm not into the masculine scent but I don't think it makes me smell like that (as far as I can tell) so it's tolerable. I use the oatmeal soap too sometimes since I read it can be hard on your skin to only use this one.

Here's another example of synergy with opera (which I last wrote about here on July 1): On October 5, the National Gallery of Art in Washington will launch a "focus exhibition" called Degas's Little Dancer, which will show off its version of the wax sculpture, set amid 11 other works by Degas, some from its collection, some borrowed.
Meanwhile, the Kennedy Center will unveil a musical by the name of Little Dancer, directed and choreographed by five-time Tony winner Susan Stroman and based on a book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens with music by Stephen Flaherty. Their show, according to the Kennedy Center, can be summarized:
Part fact, part fiction, and set in the harsh backstage world of the Paris Opera Ballet, this world premiere Kennedy Center musical is inspired by the story of Marie van Goethem, a young ballerina who posed for Edgar Degas and became, inadvertently, the most famous dancer in the world. Torn by her family's poverty, her debt to the artist, and the lure of wealthy men, she struggles to keep her place in the corps de ballet–a girl on the verge of womanhood, caught between the conflicting demands of life and art.
It runs Oct. 25 through Nov. 30.
So the NGA smartly capitalized on the event. The exhibition will illustrate Degas's "fascination with the practice and performance of ballet." It will include Ballet Scene, a pastel from 1907, and a monotype from c. 1874 titled The Ballet Master. The star painting will be The Dance Class (c. 1873) from the collection of the Corcoran Gallery of Art. There's more — read it here.
The NGA is rather proud of its Dancer, which it notes is "the only one that was formed by the artist's own hands and the only one he ever showed publicly." Also:
The Gallery has the third largest collection of Degas works in the world, including 12 cast bronzes, one posthumously produced plaster, 19 paintings, 71 works on paper, and 52 original Degas works in wax, clay, and plaster.
The NGA also says it will highlight:
…the experimental, modern approach Degas took to his work. Degas did not carve sculpture but used an additive process. Little Dancer was modeled in wax over a metal armature, bulked with organic materials including wood, rope, and even old paintbrushes in the arms. It was then covered with clay and layers of pigmented wax. Degas further elevated the sculpture's realism by affixing a wig of human hair to the head and outfitting his ballerina in a cotton-and-silk tutu, a real bodice, and linen slippers.
Confession: the Dancer has never been a favorite of mine. I prefer Degas's racing scenes, though I appreciate the ballet ones. No matter: I'm in the minority, I think. I think this show will be popular, and the timing is perfect. It runs until Jan. 11.

Quarterbacks are a completely different animal than any other position in sports. It's rare that you'll find two people that share a top-5, let alone who they view as the "GOAT."
Some people view Marino as the GOAT because he's the prototype. A man before his time. Was doing things with average players back before the rules change.
Others view Montana as the GOAT. Joe Cool. Flawless in Super Bowls. Multiple rings, MVPs, and SB MVPs.
Brady could be the GOAT. 6 SBs with 4 wins. Still going. Stats are super solid, great %'s, won with many different offenses.
Peyton is up there. All the stats. More MVPs than anyone in history. Got himself a ring, too.
Elway, Favre, Bradshaw, Young, Johnny U could all be a persons favorite QB.

|Hard to know how to rate it now. It's an institution and used to drink here a lot but I tend to agree with AbeC and Beerpilgrim. Think it's crossed the line now in respect of service and generally dinginess/cleanliness.
Will still pop in for a pint if waiting for a train/meeting people for the station, but wouldn't stay beyond a pint now.

|Visited this pub for first time for several years. Beer good and reasonable price but service in small bar very slow, and a general feel of dinginess about the whole place.

|Returned to the Hole in the Wall after a few years' absence yesterday. It's still as dingy as ever, but still has a range of ales - Greene King Abbot & IPA, Youngs Bitter & Special, Oxfordshire Triple B, Hogsback Tea, Nethergate Growler Bitter & Sharps Doom Bar. Although I'm not sure all were available. Rosies Pig was the cider. The first time I've sat in the front bar. This is decorated with many rugby shirts. Had a quick snack too, that did the trick. Very handy for Waterloo. But it's worth the extra effort to go to the Kings Arms.

|In view of my last posting, would someone who uses the HITW regularly like to let the manager know about it? Then perhaps something might happen!
beerpilgrim - 3 May 2015 15:27
|Agree with the last posting. Went in yesterday. The beer was well kept, BUT:
The front steps, which are cracked, now seem to move dangerously under your feet.
No-one ever seems to serve in the front bar.
The outside area was littered with broken glass.
A lady buying crisps gave the money to a barmaid, who dropped it. Because she couldn't find it on the floor, she asked for it again. Needless to say, the lady declined. The barmaid then went off on one with her colleagues, who told her to get her act together.
I'm sure I recognised the graffiti in the Gents from last year.
The tables are always sticky.
This pub is a local institution, and handy for the station. It would be a shame if this noted decline continued. Please, Mr. (or Mrs. or Ms) Manager, read this, and get the pub back to how it once was. I have been going there since about 1994.
Thank you.
PS. I was only in there for 30 minutes! And all this was noted!

Ratings for Dr. Bruce Sweet
Dr. Sweet, is excellent, very punctual, very caring, and a wonderful Doctor.
I seen Dr Sweet about constant ear infections. Once he did my allergy testing I started my allergy shots I have not had one infection over 5 years now. He is absolutely a great man who cares I don't know where I be without him
I have been an allergy/asthma patient of Dr. Sweet's for about 20 years and concur with all the positive comments about him and his wife/nurse Susan. I have recommended friends and family to him and they too rave about what a great doctor he is. Caring, knowledge, easy to talk with. It will be a sad day for all of us when Dr. Sweet closes his practice.
Dr. Sweet is an incredibly intelligent and honest physician. The world needs more doctors like him. I wouldn't be here without him. 5 stars does not even begin to cut it for the amount of care I receive by him in and out of clinic. He's one of a kind.
I went to Dr Sweet with a cough that i couldn't shake or figure out what it was, Dr Sweet listened to my lungs and did some tests and diagnosed me with Asthma and several allergens he has always been on schedule and takes good care of his patients.
Dr. Sweet has been God sent to me. I had been up coughing all night (bronchial, the kind that won't just go away without treatment) and emailed him at 3-4 in the morning and he or his wife has contacted me first thing that morning to see what I was up to and answered all my questions. He never quits trying to find the answer to your problems. He even follows up with an email a couple of days later to see how I'm doing. Last February was the worst and I thank God that he was there for me. I fear the day that he retires.
Dr Sweet was our gp for many years, what a great doc. He gave up his family practice a few years back, and made sure all of his patients had a new doctor. Thats just the kind of caring professional doctor that he is.
Dr. Sweet runs on his own schedule. Monday Tues Wednesday only. From Sept to April. Your best chance to get a hold of him is through email or phone message. He is looking after his patients and doesn't always answer the phone. But he WILL get back to you. totally agree to all the other submissions. knew my daughter had hives and wanted to know more, turns out she is highly allergic to many things. Once we dealt with what we could she has turned from a cranky child into into a happy one. She was really irritated. It required the use of inhalers, noses-spray and allergy pills. But i am happy to say we don't have to use them to often now. Except during specific times of the year. Dr. Sweet does not overbook. his full attention is on you.
Dr Sweet is amazing and always has time for his patients. once we communicated through email when my son had a severe rash which emergency doctors said was a food allergy. Dr. Sweet told me how to treat it for it wasn't a food allergy at all but a viral virus. he is the last of his kind and wish more doctors could be half as efficient and caring as he is.
Dr. Sweet and his wife Susan are truly amazing people. When I first met them, I had what I thought was a "cold"; well that cold lasted forever and Susan kept telling me to get tested for allergies. I always thought every allergic problem I had was from "smoking". When I met them, I had already been a non-smoker for approximately 1 year. I finally got tested and sure enough I was acutely allergic to many environmental things. I have been a non-smoker for 11 years TODAY, and I had started getting shots at the end of October 2009. Dr. Sweet thought they would definitely be more helpful than just pills, sprays and puffers alone. While only 9 shots into my regiment I am truly feeling better than I have in many years! Thank you Dr. and Mrs. Sweet, with that very important information and finally listening to Dr. Sweet, my family physician and family members to leave my overly-stressful thankless job I was in I am truly on top of the world! Thanks for everything you've done for me!

Sine, Cosine, and Tangent
The word trigonometry comes from two words meaning triangle and measure. In this lesson we will define three trigonometric (or trig) functions.
Trigonometry: The study of the relationships between the sides and angles of right triangles.
In trigonometry, sides are named in reference to a particular angle. The hypotenuse of a triangle is always the same, but the terms adjacent and opposite depend on which angle you are referencing. A side adjacent to an angle is the leg of the triangle that helps form the angle. A side opposite to an angle is the leg of the triangle that does not help form the angle. We never reference the right angle when referring to trig ratios.
Watch the parts of the video dealing with the sine, cosine, and tangent.
The three basic trig ratios are called, sine, cosine and tangent. At this point, we will only take the sine, cosine and tangent of acute angles. However, you will learn that you can use these ratios with obtuse angles as well.
Sine Ratio: For an acute angle \begin{align*}x\end{align*} in a right triangle, the \begin{align*}\sin x\end{align*} is equal to the ratio of the side opposite the angle over the hypotenuse of the triangle. Using the triangle above, \begin{align*}\sin A = \frac{a}{c}\end{align*} and \begin{align*}\sin B = \frac{b}{c}\end{align*}.
Cosine Ratio: For an acute angle \begin{align*}x\end{align*} in a right triangle, the \begin{align*}\cos x\end{align*} is equal to the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle over the hypotenuse of the triangle. Using the triangle above, \begin{align*}\cos A = \frac{b}{c}\end{align*} and \begin{align*}\cos B = \frac{a}{c}\end{align*}.
Tangent Ratio: For an acute angle \begin{align*}x\end{align*}, in a right triangle, the \begin{align*}\tan x\end{align*} is equal to the ratio of the side opposite to the angle over the side adjacent to \begin{align*}x\end{align*}. Using the triangle above, \begin{align*}\tan A = \frac{a}{b}\end{align*} and \begin{align*}\tan B = \frac{b}{a}\end{align*}.
There are a few important things to note about the way we write these ratios. First, keep in mind that the abbreviations \begin{align*}\sin x, \cos x\end{align*}, and \begin{align*}\tan x\end{align*} are all functions. Second, be careful when using the abbreviations that you still pronounce the full name of each function. When we write \begin{align*}\sin x\end{align*} it is still pronounced sine, with a long "\begin{align*}i\end{align*}". When we write \begin{align*}\cos x\end{align*}, we still say co-sine. And when we write \begin{align*}\tan x\end{align*}, we still say tangent. An easy way to remember ratios is to use the mnemonic SOH-CAH-TOA.
A few important points:
- Always reduce ratios when you can.
- Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing side (if there is one).
- The tangent ratio can be bigger than 1 (the other two cannot).
- If two right triangles are similar, then their sine, cosine, and tangent ratios will be the same (because they will reduce to the same ratio).
- If there is a radical in the denominator, rationalize the denominator.
- The sine, cosine and tangent for an angle are fixed.
Finding Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Ratios
Find the sine, cosine and tangent ratios of \begin{align*}\angle A\end{align*}.
First, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
\begin{align*}5^2 + 12^2 & = h^2\\ 13 & = h\end{align*}
So, \begin{align*}\sin A = \frac{12}{13}, \cos A = \frac{5}{13}\end{align*}, and \begin{align*}\tan A = \frac{12}{5}\end{align*}.
Calculating Sine, Cosine, and Tangent
Find the sine, cosine, and tangent of \begin{align*}\angle B\end{align*}.
Find the length of the missing side.
\begin{align*}AC^2 + 5^2 & = 15^2\\ AC^2 & = 200\\ AC & = 10 \sqrt{2}\end{align*}
Therefore, \begin{align*}\sin B = \frac{10 \sqrt{2}}{15} = \frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}, \cos B = \frac{5}{15} = \frac{1}{3}\end{align*}, and \begin{align*}\tan B = \frac{10 \sqrt{2}}{5} = 2 \sqrt{2}\end{align*}.
Finding Sine, Cosine, and Tangent Given an Angle Measure
Find the sine, cosine and tangent of \begin{align*}30^\circ\end{align*}.
This is a special right triangle, a 30-60-90 triangle. So, if the short leg is 6, then the long leg is \begin{align*}6 \sqrt{3}\end{align*} and the hypotenuse is 12.
\begin{align*}\sin 30^\circ = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}, \cos 30^\circ = \frac{6 \sqrt{3}}{12} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\end{align*}, and \begin{align*}\tan 30^\circ = \frac{6}{6 \sqrt{3}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\end{align*}.
Trigonometric Ratios for Non-Right Angles
The trigonometric ratios for the non-right angles in the triangle above are:
\begin{align*} \sin A = \frac{4}{5}, \cos A = \frac{3}{5}, \tan A = \frac{4}{3}, \sin B = \frac{3}{5}, \cos B = \frac{4}{5},\end{align*} and \begin{align*} \tan B = \frac{3}{4}\end{align*}.
Answer the questions about the following image. Reduce all fractions.
Example 1
What is \begin{align*}\sin A\end{align*}?
\begin{align*}\sin A=\frac{16}{20}=\frac{4}{5}\end{align*}
Example 2
What is \begin{align*}\cos A\end{align*}?
\begin{align*} \cos A=\frac{12}{20}=\frac{3}{5}\end{align*}
Example 3
What is \begin{align*}\tan A\end{align*}?
\begin{align*} \tan A=\frac{16}{12}=\frac{4}{3}\end{align*}
Use the diagram to fill in the blanks below.
- \begin{align*}\tan D = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\sin F = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\tan F = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\cos F = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\sin D = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
- \begin{align*}\cos D = \frac{?}{?}\end{align*}
From questions 1-6, we can conclude the following. Fill in the blanks.
- \begin{align*}\cos \underline{\;\;\;\;\;\;\;} = \sin F\end{align*} and \begin{align*}\sin \underline{\;\;\;\;\;\;\;} = \cos F\end{align*}.
- \begin{align*}\tan D\end{align*} and \begin{align*}\tan F\end{align*} are _________ of each other.
Find the sine, cosine and tangent of \begin{align*}\angle A\end{align*}. Reduce all fractions and radicals.
- Explain why the sine of an angle will never be greater than 1.
- Explain why the tangent of a \begin{align*}45^\circ\end{align*} angle will always be 1.
- As the degree of an angle increases, will the tangent of the angle increase or decrease? Explain.

Review Details
Citizen Messenger Bag
- Product Review (submitted on April 30, 2013):
- Got the Citizen bag for Christmas this year, and so far it has lived up to the expectations I had for it. All of the reviews on this site helped to confirm that this is one of the most well built bags on the market, and when I first opened it up I realized just how special it was. Every aspect of the Citizen is built to be utilitarian and efficient. The zippered and inner pocket under the flap of the bag are great storage spaces for things I would normally keep in my pockets, and the main compartment is deceptively large. So far I have only used this bag for carrying my stuff around campus for the day or as an overnight bag, but it has more than enough room to fit two pairs of clothes, shoes, and a few books; which would be an overload in any bag I've had before. I am from Michigan, so right now riding is really not doable for me, but when the warmer months hit I am excited to see firsthand how this bag travels. Lastly, the fact that this bag, of such high quality, is made right here in the USA by the great folks at Chrome is a testament to the quality of American made products. I am already looking into some of the other products on this site, because after experiencing the high quality from my first purchase I know it is so worth it to buy here again. Keep up the good work Chrome

My sister teased me when I posted a while back about using local wine for
communion. It's "kind of like a parody of a post you would write," she noted on
Despite Jesus's petition "that they may be one," all Christians still cannot eat and drink together at the Lord's Supper. In an effort to move ecumenical conversations forward, Michael Welker, professor of systematic theology at the University of Heidelberg and occasional visiting professor at Princeton, sets out a systematic explanation of what happens at Holy Communion.
I've said before that celebrating communion via Twitter (to make "a
statement that we're prepared to embrace the technological revolution") seems
like an especially poor use of technology. But Lisa Nichols Hickman brings up a techno-sacramental innovation
that's at least somewhat more compelling.
When I was at Wheaton, a story (possibly apocryphal) circulated
about a student who had been expelled a couple years earlier for celebrating a
mock Eucharist on the quad, in which he faux-consecrated donuts and beer.
I grew up attending Bible and Baptist
churches; now I generally identify with the emerging church. So I've had quite
a learning curve at the Episcopal seminary where I'm studying. Between
balancing prayer books and hymnals and crash courses in chanting, I've frequently
felt like a stranger in a strange land.
This summer, my divinity-student wife is doing a unit of clinical pastoral education.
As someone without any pastoral care experience, I've been fascinated
to hear about the scenarios (real and hypothetical) that come up in
CPE-related conversations. For instance, a classic: Would you baptize a
dead baby?
In the tireless (and sometimes tiresome) debates over social media, I
come down pretty firmly on the "pro" side.
This week I am headed to the Hindu Temple in Atlanta so that the students in my World Religions class may see a living faith in action. When they fill out their final evaluation forms, many of them will say that the field trips were the best part of the class, and I will agree with them.
Catechism class will now come to order. Either because of bad teaching in the preceding generation or because one kid did not pay attention, a crucial misstatement of doctrine has been repeated in the press.
A trinitarian view of religious pluralism
Christians believe in a complex God, three coeternal persons living a single enduring communion. The divine life has varied dimensions and allows human interaction with the triune God to take different forms. God's channels are open on many frequencies.
