The Wegmans School of Pharmacy Class of 2017 Receives White Coats in Weekend Ceremony
The Wegmans School of Pharmacy at St. John Fisher College held a white coat ceremony on Sunday, January 12, to officially mark the entrance of the Class of 2017 into the profession. In this "rite of passage," 82 students received a white coat symbolizing their successful admission into the School of Pharmacy.
Dean Scott Swigart welcomed the students, along with their friends and family to the ceremony, and congratulated them for successfully completing their first semester.
The keynote speaker was Dr. Cori Wyman, Consulting Clinical Pharmacist Certified Diabetes Educator for the Greater Rochester Independent Practice Association (GRIPA). Wyman joined GRIPA in 2007 and is responsible for optimizing medication therapy, educating patients, and collaborating with physicians on disease management. In addition, she serves as a preceptor for doctor of pharmacy students, develops clinical guidelines and measurement systems, and participates in multidisciplinary teams to enhance and grow GRIPA. She earned her Bachelor and Doctor of Pharmacy degrees at the University of Buffalo in 1995 and 2003. Prior to joining GRIPA, she was the Coordinator of Ambulatory Care Services at Metcare Rx Pharmaceutical Services Group. She also currently has clinical appointments at numerous pharmacy schools including the University at Buffalo, the University of Colorado Denver, and Fisher.
After the students received their white coat, Dr. Alex DeLucenay, Assistant Professor and member of the School of Pharmacy's Class of 2010, led them in the recitation of the Pharmacist's Oath.
The pharmacy students who received white coats are:
Aaron Ajegba, Susan Al-Salameh, Joseph Aladeen, Haroutune Alahaydoian, Seth Amidon, Neil Anderson, Nicholas Barilla, Allan Batalier, Erin Beitz, Lauren Bowser, Kevin Callahan, Aubrey Campbell, Maria Caraballo, Sarah Caternolo, Carly Coms, MacKenzie Crist, Susan DeNapoli, Elizabeth Dennie, Michael Dineen, Seda Donmez, Bradley Eisenberg, Pejman Farrokh, Catherine Felberbaum, Erin Filkins, Steven Fishel, Nina Fong, Yakov Fridman, Jeff Gasbarre, Nathan Gear, Kaleigh Griffin, Katlynn Gwilt, Max Hartnett, Kevin Heacock, Jonathan Hughes, Elida Iskandarova, Amanda Izzo, Caitlyn Janiszewski, Tanya Kelly, Hillary Kelsen, Talayeh Khoshab, David Kim, Ana Lai, Dianne Lee, Samantha Leistman, Vinh Luong, Lauren Malara, Alexandra Mancuso, Jennifer Mappus, Samantha Marsala, John Marvin, Kayleigh Matesic, Eboni McClain, Anna Nietupski, Samantha Noone, Stephen Pavente, Breanne Peterson, Matthew Phelps, Leslie Radka, Jonathan Redlinski, Jillian Rice, Bridgitte Richardson, Stacy Roche, Emily Rosenberg, Christina Sanborn, Luke Sanna, Jessica Saxum, Ryan Schoepfel, Drew Seidel, Nishit Shah, Christopher Skarbelis, Karissa Stoyell, Tierney Sullivan, Lyla Tan, Michael Tarver, Ryan Thomas, Stacy Wicks, Kara Wilcox, Angelica Wisniewski, Stephany Wong, Kaiwen Wu, Leo Xue, and Susie Yang.

My end users aren't receiving any inbound mail and when I check Delivery Queue, the following message is displayed in my mail:
"return-path address <email@example.com> rejected by mail.mydomain.com:25 : 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources"
In Exchange Server 2007, the transport service monitors system resources such as disk space and memory on the transport servers (the Hub transport and Edge transport servers), and stops message submission if it is running low on these resources. It continues to deliver existing messages in the queue. When resource utilization returns to normal, it resumes message submission. The feature is called Back Pressure.
To correct this issue, you need over 4 GB of free space on the volume where the Queue database is located.
In Exchange Server 2007 SP1, this static threshold has been lowered to a more realistic 500 MB.
Note: Configuration options for transport servers are saved in the XML file, EdgeTransport.exe.config, which is located in the following directory (\Exchange Server\Bin\).
To free up some space on this volume, you may move the Queue database over to another volume with ample free space by following this procedure.
Note: The Back Pressure feature, which detects resource pressure on Exchange Server 2007 transport servers and stops accepting new message submission if low on resources, may be turned OFF by following these steps. Please note that this procedure has not been recommended by Microsoft.

Something We Can All Get Behind
No reader of this blog wonders about my feelings towards the Yankees. My opinions have been as unequivocally clear as they are opaque when it comes to my politics. But even I can still be surprised by the depths to which the Evil Empire will sink.
Now, admittedly I take this a little more personally because, despite my distaste for his team, Derek Jeter hails from the same part of southwest Michigan where I grew up. I won't say I like the guy but I respect him as a baseball player and I respect anyone who can escape from that particular corner of hell. To go from the cornfields of Kalamazoo to dating Esquire's sexiest woman alive, well, that means something.
In general, I support baseball's modernization. Free agency, although
it means players move around a bit, hasn't killed the game. But if this Steinbrenner ploy leads to Jeter
wearing something other than pinstripes? Even I think that's wrong. However, if
it were to drive a wedge between him and Minka and somehow send her my
way, I guess I could get behind that.
3 Comments
Jeter needs to stay put in New York. You can't trade your franchise player.
Shame on the Yankees.
—Mark Gauthier
I just spoke to a woman who was at Jeter's house in NJ yesterday. Bad news for you: Minka was there. And they looked very tight. I'm afraid she's not going to be on the market, even if he is!

Hello! I am new to the LaLeche League forums and am looking for some help with a low milk supply. I am currently pregnant with my 3rd child and would really like to nurse full time. When my son was born (almost 3 years ago) my milk supply was very low. I nursed for a week waiting for my milk to come in and finally, after he lost over a pound, decided to supplement with formula, via a SNS. With my daughter, I was still traumatized by not being able to fully nurse my son, that I said if my milk doesn't fully come in, we will start supplementing with formula via the SNS again but much earlier.
Now I am expecting baby 3 and really want to nurse him/her full time and am looking for tips to help my milk supply. With my son, I did have him attached for what seemed to be 23 hours of the day. His latch was great and he was a hearty sucker. My daughter got the hang of latching without my help.
I did enlist the help of the LLL in the area we used to live when I had my son, so I did get quite a few tips that I used. However, I was wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions for ways to prepare during the next 9 weeks that I have until my due date!

How many people does it take to change a light bulb...
When the bulb you are changing is at the top of a 17-foot-high ceiling in your great room? While a few people have mastered the extension pole bulb replacement method, most of us have to get out an extension ladder so it takes at least 2 people to change a light bulb!
Therefore, it only makes sense to specify LED light bulbs that last 20 years or longer on average, for those hard-to-reach light fixtures. Though more expensive to buy, they'll save money on electricity. Plus, you won't have to get out the spackle and touch-up paint to repair the drywall nicks from carrying that extension ladder through the house!

Some thoughts about this game?
Atlanta has had a great start of season, at one point being #1 in the league alongside utah jazz, but as time passed they faded, start to lose, and now the Hawks are with a record that is not by much better then ours.
They lost 7 out of the last 10 games and they're on a 3 game losing streak. On this chapter NY sits better, with only 6 losses in the past 10 games and no streak.
Jeffries has returned 2 days ago against the Celtics and did not impressed, that's why, i think tonight he will be more motivated.
Curry's on max shape, and tonight he should set a new Knicks record with 10 straight games of scoring 20+
Later edit:
Oh, the record was already set with the celtics, this should be his 11th

Is a good way to improve your running speed to run with a full recovery in between intervals ? Iv been reading up on this and this is the suggested training idea:
4 x 400 meters with full recovery in between each 400 meters. 4 x 300 meters with full recovery in between each 300 meters. 4 x 200 meters with full recovery in between each 200 meters. 4 x 100 meters with full recovery in between each 100 meters.
With stretching inbetween to keep loose and so on. So if you do your warm up run, stretching, then go onto the above are you building up strength rather than muscle endurance. Also if you worked by time rather than distance, say after your warm up and stretching doing 4 x 5 mins at a faster speed and totally stopping inbetween (but keeping loose). Would that have the same effect? Any help in this area would be appreciated. Thanks. Sonia

Funnily enough, I was talking about this with my Pilates instructor yesterday - he's also a running coach. When talking of intervals he said to give it a 3-minute recovery so you're properly rested for each rep - only he said it in more scientific terms which made sense at the time, but which I can't remember now!
We were talking of marathon training in particular - I ran one a couple weeks ago - and he was saying intervals (and tempo and long runs) are the best way to train, as you need to train to run fast, not simply do a lot of miles. He mentioned that too many people go for the 'easy' option of simply doing a lot of miles.

Good question. I could be completely wrong but I've always assumed that any kind of interval training required that you don't completely stop in the "easy" phase. The object is to add pace to the runner by taking you out of a comfort zone. The recovery is usually an easing down rather than a halt. I've always thought that if you need to completely stop after an interval then that was a signal that you were running too quickly in that phase and to ease down by 10% or so. Interesting question, looking forward to readng the replies.

This is really interesting. I've just started doing some interval training in an attempt to up my pace. I slowed things down to do long runs for my marathon in April but my next race is a 10k in June and I was shocked at how much slower I am than last year.
As I am pressed for time and childcare I have been adding an hour of intervals to my training once per week when I drop the kids off at their club.
I have mapped out a 1k route near their club which I run at top speed. It is a loop and a half, so I can slow jog/walk back to the start. I was wondering if allowing myself to completely recover would be better than slow jogging till my heart rate goes down?
The first week I did walk as I was so knackered after each 1k, but this week I felt I could jog back. My 1k interval times are definatley improving......will have to let you know if it helps with my 10k race pace run on Sunday.

Hi Sonia.
Here's how I understand it (and plan my training!)
Short intervals (up to 400m) are for power, speed and form, and require long recovery (relative to the rep time) so something like 15 x 200m at just under 3k pace, with 200m jog recovery.
Slightly longer intervals are for speed and boosting the level at which you "top out" aerobically (known as your v02 max). Recovery should be timewise between 50 and 100% of interval time. So my 2 sessions at the moment are:
5 x 2:30 at 8 min pace* ; 2:30 rest
4 x 5:00 at 15 min pace* ; 3:00 rest
I'm finding them tough. Rest is enough to give a good breather, but also short enough to make sure the reps get harder.
(* - 8 min pace is the pace at which you could run for 8 minutes before collapsing. Imagine a race that was 8 minutes long and the aim was to get as far as possible - what pace could you do. Likewise for 15 min pace)
Long intervals are for boosting your lactic threshold (essentially increase the body's performance aerobically, so you can cope with higher speeds before lactic acid build up) These would require relatively short recovery time. Examples include:
5 x 1 mile at 10k pace ; 90 sec recovery
3 x 2 mile at 10 mile pace ; 1 min recovery
These are useful alternatives to longer (no rest) tempo runs, which aim to hit the same energy systems.

Its a v interesting way to do things and im finding its quickening up my pace without thinking about it.. I read up about this on some sports sites bacause a friend suggested it.
Its so true that most people aim for a lot of miles as Martin says. Im happy with sticking to my 5k's at present and improving time, tech and so on. So far Iv been doing 100,200m lengths and the resting, keeping warm, loose inbetween.
Good luck for the 10k. race SJD. Be good to see if what youve been doing has an effect on the overall speed of your race.
Chubby B - there was a docu on tv regarding all of this. Basically it was all about losing weight. .They sound that short intervals of high speed output worked better than say just jogging a long distance.By the way theres a brill book about Oliver Postgate:Seeing things, if thats your bag.Luv Baggersand make puppets and so on but Snoopy's my thing.(sorry to sidetrack)
The other thing Iv been working on is a cardiovascular workout for 45 mins three times a week. Iv noticed my form feels better and I feel like I have better control over my whole body whilst.
Also personally I think too much of any exercise is bad for you if your not a pro with a coach. Once Iv rested for two days I always feel stronger when I get back out there.
Posted over 4 years ago in reply to Sonia001
I like what the Chubby Bloke said on this, it makes sense to me. If you were doing short intervals, say 200metres at 100% or so then you would probably have to stop for recovery anyway. I went for 5 miles today and incorporated some longer intervals, around 1k, at 85%. I then jogged around 400 metres, lightly for recovery. It was tough but if I stopped completely I wouldn't want to go again for the next interval.
I did a 10k race pace run on Sunday and was hoping to see some improvement in my pace, or at least feel that I was running a bit faster without it feeling so hard. I've only done 3 intervals sessions, (an hour per week in addition to my other training). While my 1k interval times are improving, it didn't seem to make much difference to my 10k fast pace run.
Last year before my marathon training I could do it comfortably under the hour (PB 58mins), now I am struggling and frustrated that I keep coming in at 1 hour and 1 min. I know is only 3 minutes but I'm busting a gut to do that.
Long intervals (1k) with a slow jog recovery (which I am doing) or short flat out intervals with a stop for complete recovery (which I haven't tried yet) ..... which would you recommend for upping my 10k race time? I only have 2 weeks left till race day.
I dont think Im qualified to answer that.Well done by the way SJD, thats an amazing time:).
I can only say that I did my Sunday 5k run in a much faster pace and even found my hills easier.I was slightly in shock last Sunday to be honest. So for me Im going to carry on with it. I forgot my watch so although I know I was quicker Im not sure by how much.
Its a very interesting subject.
Hi SJD - I think the intervals will eventually pay off, but rather than keep trying to improve your interval times, it might be a better strategy to try and hold the same interval pace but increase the number of reps, so that you build your speed endurance.
About 10 years ago, in a previous running lifetime, I started doing 4 min intervals at 12 kmh on a treadmill with 2 min walking recovery. At the time my comfortable pace was about 10kmh. At first I could only do 4 reps and by the end of each rep I was desperate for the rep to end, but after about 6-8 weeks I could do 6 comfortably and it had become almost easy. I then found that I could run a whole 5k at 12kmh, i.e. running continuously (though it nearkly killed me doing it).
You should also take into account that an interval session is considered a very 'hard' session, similar to a long run, so don't do one too close to running a race as it would probably impair your performance.
Posted over 4 years ago in reply to GorillaMan
Hi SJD -Gorillaman offers some good advice.
Short, fast intervals with long stationary / walked recovery fall into the domain of sprint / shorter middle distance running.
For 10k I would suggest a mixture of 1k reps with up to 2 min jog recovery, at a pace slightly faster than race pace, and a longer tempo run of around 2-3 miles at target race pace. (Both should include at least a 1.5 mile warm up and 0.5 mile cool down)
Cheers guys. I think I set myself a goal that is achievable, but maybe not in the time I have left for this 10k race in 2 weeks. We are doing this race whilst away on holiday so maybe I should just lighten up and treat it as a fun run.
I'm gonna keep up with the intervals though as there will always be other races and I am actually starting to enjoy them.
It's interesting how all the people who have just completed marathons are now into speed training. Just last week I started on a new training plan which consists of:
1 interval session (4-6 x half miles with 2 min walk recoveries)
1 tempo run
1 longish run (7-10 miles) or 6 miles X-country on alternate weeks
I also do one or 2 very slow 2-3 mile recovery runs or some x-training in between and walk 3 miles on days when not doing any training.
My goal is to lose weight, increase my comfortable long distance pace and ultimately take a chunk out of my marathon time in a year's time. Must admit admit it's a relief to leave marathion training behind for a while - my legs are feeling much better!!
Ha ha yeah you are right GorrillaMan. I think I slowed it down to concentrate on distance and endurance and got a bit of a shock when I realised I couldn't run fast anymore. Now I am already starting to wonder how I ever ran so far. Is it possible to train to be both a fast runner and a long distance runner at the same time? I find it hard to judge my pace when I only have one!
I know what you mean SJD - after struggling to complete a 1.5 hour run last weekend, I can't believe I ran a marathon 3 weeks ago (but luckily there is now a 'marathon shrine' in my living room so I know I did :-)!).
Here's a positive thought to take away from this discussion. If you push yourself to go a bit faster for short parts of your normal runs and/or by doing interval or hill training sessions, your body WILL adapt and the speed at which you can run comfortably will increase over time. I know this for a fact because I have personally done it in the past (and so have many others). You will then be able to train for and run your next marathon a bit faster (as well as improve your 10k time).
The really good news is that you don't have to improve your marathon pace by much to make a big difference to your marathon time. E.g. if you currently run a marathon in 5 and a half hours and can raise your marathon pace by 10% will knock over half an hour off your time. That is a doable goal and you may even be able to do better. Obviously it get a bit harder to improve once your breaking 3 hours (but I don't think we need to worry about for a few years yet)
I'll be honest with you - I find speed training much easier to do on a treadmill because it enables you to precisely control how fast you run and for how long. But the way you are doing it should still work OK, it's just a bit more effort to make sure you are sustaining a pace increase over a measured distance.

Oh sorry, I didn't realise Cas and Wakey had tried it before.
The problem is that people seem to assume that combining 2 clubs gives you a club twice as strong. It doesn't work like that unfortunately.
Short term it probably looks like a bad move, long term I feel its results would be a stronger club and a more competitive league.
Thousands more would watch a competitive Cas or Wakey (so I'm told), so what they have got they don't want. A few vociferous fans are holding the game back in Cas and Wakey whilst thousands (so I'm told) fans sit at home waiting for a competitive club to watch.
I'm not particularly saying these two clubs should be forced to merge, merely that as long as you have three clubs sitting in each others garden they'll all be sitting in the shade.

The three Sumatran tiger cubs born at the Honolulu Zoo three years ago are heading to new homes around the world, zoo officials said.
The cubs have been a favorite for zoo visitors since they were born Sept. 15, 2008.
The litter was Chrissie and Berani's second. Their first litter was born at the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo in Indiana in 2004.
One of the tigers is going to the Sendai Yagiyama Zoological Park in Japan. Another is heading to the San Antonio Zoo in Texas. The last cub is going to the Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington, D.C.
Chrissie and Berani are part of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums' Species Survival Plan for Sumatran Tigers. It is a breeding program to improve the population.
Honolulu Zoo officials said sending the cubs to other facilities will help improve the gene pool of breeding tigers.

State department responds to Wells tower complaint
WELLS The Vermont Department of Public Service has asked Vermont Electric Power Co., or VELCO, to clearly mark and secure an electric cable on a mountaintop in town that leads to a company radio tower project, after a complaint filed with the state Public Service Board by neighboring homeowners Olga Julinska and Felix Kniazev.
On Oct. 31, VELCO filed a request for nonsubstantial change determination, a document that alters the plans approved in the companys original certificate of public good permit issued by the PSB in March.
That permit allowed VELCO to construct the 80-foot tower near the couples home on Northeast Mountain for the companys statewide radio project. The purpose of the project is to help VELCOs own employees radio communications during power outages.
In the nonsubstantial change filing, VELCO told the board about a number of changes made to the tower project, including the installation of a 3,700-foot, on-the-ground armored electric service cable to feed electricity to the tower.
In a response to the VELCO request dated Nov. 16, Jeanne Elias, attorney for the Department of Public Service, wrote to the Public Service Board that it and VELCO have agreed that the company be obligated to clearly mark the cable location as long as the cable is in place to prevent any health or safety hazards on the land where the cable sits. The land is owned by Mettowee Lumber Co.
In another development in the ongoing dispute, the Public Service Board asked VELCO this week to respond to a complaint filed by the homeowners that the changes to the plan were substantial, that their driveway was blocked and electricity to feed the tower was still being drawn from their home. That response is due Monday.
The board is also making a site visit to the property Tuesday at 11 a.m.
The project has been a point of contention between the company and the couple, who have been trying to prevent the construction of the tower for more than a year, citing health hazards for their family.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep.

Anatolian shepherd dogs, as name suggests, originates in Kangal region of Sivas, Turkey. they can grow up to be 240 lbs.
These traits make it challenging as a pet; owners of dogs of this breed must socialize the dogs to turn them into appropriate companions. They are intelligent and can learn quickly but might choose not to obey; this is not a dog for a beginning or shy owner. They become very protective of other animals in the household, and will treat them as their flock.
They have also been known to kill bears to protect their charges. According to Turkish shepherds, three Anatolian Shepherd Dogs are capable of overcoming a pack of five wolves and kill one of two of them.

At its own event in San Francisco, California, Advanced Micro Devices showcased a notebook based on the next-generation Fusion A-series accelerated processing unit (APU) code-named Trinity. This is the first time when AMD shows off a running Trinity-powered system up-and-close. Unfortunately, AMD did not demonstrate its next-generation ultra low-power platform for netbooks and ultra-thin mobile PCs.
At the event, AMD exhibited a notebook prototype based on Fusion Trinity APU running the latest Deus Ex video game. Unfortunately, the company did not reveal any performance details of the system and also remained tight-lipped about exact specifications of the highly-integrated chip. This is not the first revelation of a Trinity-based system by AMD. What the particular demonstration shows is that AMD's code-named Trinity accelerated processing unit is mature enough to run without issues for many hours.
AMD Fusion "Trinity"-Based System
AMD's second-generation code-named Trinity APU for mainstream personal computers (Comal for notebooks and Virgo for desktops) will be made using 32nm SOI HKMG process technology at Globalfoundries. The APU will feature up to four x86 cores powered by enhanced Bulldozer/Piledriver architecture, AMD Radeon HD 7000-series "Southern Islands" graphics core with DirectX 11-class graphics support, DDR3 memory controller and other improvements. The chips will be compatible with new FM2 infrastructure.
AMD claims that Trinity will offer up to 50% improvement in GFLOPS performance with the same power consumption as currently available A-series "Llano" APUs or similar GFLOPS horsepower with 50% reduction of power consumption.
Sources with knowledge of AMD's plans said that the company intends to release the first Fusion Trinity APUs in the second quarter of 2012, less than a year after the company launched its Llano accelerated processing units.
Unfortunately, AMD did not demonstrate its next-generation Wichita system-on-chip for netbooks and ultra-thin entry-level notebooks at its exhibition. The chip is to be made using 28nm process technology and is supposed to be out sometimes in 2012.

My son is a little over 6 months old now and all of a sudden I am getting some pain when he nurses on the right side. Just on the nipple- nowhere else. I also noticed that there is also either a bruise (or maybe a freckle, Im not sure). But he has recently started biting now that he has 2 bottom teeth. Im just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to get babies to NOT BITE!! I would pull away- but I think that would make him bite harder!
Thanks for any advice!!

Continuing in Houston.
The Phillies (27-22) continue their trip to Houston with their second of four games against the Astros (27-22, 3rd National League Central) at Minute Maid Park. The game will start at 8:05 pm Eastern (7:05 pm Central). The Phillies will send to the mound Adam Eaton (0-2, 5.59), who is coming off a lost against the Toronto Blue Jays on May 17, where he went only five innings as he gave up four earned runs on eight hits, in the Phillies' 6-3 lost. In his previous start against the Astros back on April 15, he would pitch six innings as he gave up three earned runs on seven hits while receiving a no-decision, in the Phils' dramatic 4-3 come from behind win. Eaton will be looking for his first win of the year while Phillies fans wonder how much longer he'll stay in the starting rotation. The Astros will counter with Brandon Backe (3-5, 4.58), who is coming off a win against the Texas Rangers on May 18, where he pitched six and a third innings, giving up only three earned runs on five hits, in the Astros' 5-4 victory. In his previous start against the Phils on April 17, he took the lost as he pitched only three innings as he gave up five earned runs on ten hits, in the Astros' 10-2 lost. He will be trying to improve his record while trying to get even for his earlier defeat at the hands of the Phillies' offense.
Speaking of the offense, after being able to score only one run in the first eighteen innings of their series in Washington against the Nationals, the Phils have since then scored ninteen runs in the last eighteen innings. While some runs have come via the long ball, most of them have come via the use of small ball. Hopefully it'll continue during the rest of their road trip. Also, Ryan Howard appears to be on a hitting tear, as he has gone six for his last ten at bats, hitting two doubles and three home runs, while knocking in six RBIs and scoring four runs. Howard is now hitting over .200 with a batting average of .207. But Howard appears to be not the only Phils on a tear as Shane Victorino has just raised his batting average to .263 as he has gotten eight hits in his last four starts, including two doubles and a home run. And Pedro Feliz in his last three starts has gone seven for thirteen with a home run, raising his average to .252. Hopefully the bats will continue to strike during their stay in Houston.
The Phillies are a game and a half behind the Marlins, who will start a three games series in Miami against the Giants. They are technically tied for second with the Braves, trailing them by .002 percentage points, as they begin a four games series at home against the presently reeling Diamonbacks. Both they and the Braves are three games ahead of the Mets, who are continuing their own road trip with a three games series with the Rockies in Denver. After Sunday's afternoon game with the Astros, the Phils will come home to start a ten games home stand, starting with a three games series with the reigning National League Champion Colorado Rockies. The Phillies will be trying to keep pace with the Marlins and Braves while trying to stay even further ahead of the presently floundering Mets.

The thought of Adam Eaton pitching makes me want to hide under a blanket and eat an entire bottle of Tums. Wake me when it's over…ugh! Sure wish we had some other options but it looks like Benson keeps getting pushed back further and further and not much else on the horizon… Fingers crossed!
I would like to see the Phillies try J.A. Happ. He can't be any worse than Eaton and could end up being the Kyle Kendrick of 2008. If nothing else, we can see what Happ really has and get closer to a hopeful return of Brad Lidge.
Sorry, meant Kris Benson. I was watching Lidge as I was typing!
To Phillies Phollowers: I feel your pain, as I'd thought the same thing when I recalled viewing the game on gameday. But, he seems to have pitched better last night. What stuck my craw was that the Phils' were getting their ***** whipped by slow moving junk from Backe, and I do mean slow moving. I mean, their had him on the rope in his previous start. On Benson, I'm keep my fingers crossed, but his fingers need to work some magic of their own.
To Phillies Phorum: On Happ, that's up to management, and quite frankly, I sometimes wonder what was goes on inside the minds of the ghosts who own this team. Yeah, I said ghosts, cause I sometimes think that their decisions only haunt, not help, this club.

Heat a large saucepan and dry-fry the cumin seeds and chilli flakes for 1 min, or until they start to jump around the pan and release their aromas. Scoop out about half of the seeds with a spoon and set aside. Add the oil, carrot, lentils, stock and milk to the pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 mins until the lentils have swollen and softened.
Whizz the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor until smooth (or leave it chunky if you prefer). Season to taste and finish with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkling of the reserved toasted spices. Serve with warmed naan breads.
If you want to use a slow cooker...
Place half the cumin seeds, half the chilli flakes, the oil, carrots, lentils and 700ml stock into your slow cooker pot. Cover and cook on High for 3 hours until the lentils are tender. Dry-fry the remaining cumin seeds and chilli flakes just until fragrant. When the lentils are done, stir in the milk and whizz up the soup depending on how chunky you'd like it.
Make it Moroccan
Substitute the chilli flakes and cumin seeds for a few teaspoons of harissa paste. You could add cooked shredded chicken at the end of cooking, too.
Make it dairy-free
For a richer but dairy-free alternative, use a can of reduced-fat coconut milk instead of the milk.

Just made this for lunch. Like many others I tweeked this a little. Used fresh grated ginger in place of the cumin and chilli flakes and also used Almond milk. This is a low cal, low cost and gut healthy light meal. The basic recipe is ideal to vary according to taste and available ingredients. It has to be one to use for any one looking for a heart healthy, cost effective easy to make meal. It is in my recipe book.
Lovely and so easy! This recipe works well with butternut squash straight from the freezer to substitute for the carrots - means I can always make a tasty hearty vegetarian soup straight from stores even if I've run out of fresh veg. I left out the milk and just used a potato masher in the pan just before serving, to make the soup thick but still a bit chunky.
I used half carrot and half celery mixture; and only other difference was a tad more cumin seeds (and a sprinkle of dried cumin half way thru cooking as it was a bit bland). Used 25% reduced stock cubes, but needed a bit more salt at the end. Outcome: a bit of a boring soup. Looked for dried ginger but didn't have any. Maybe just use carrots! Didn't bother with yogurt. I suppose for me, soup without cream will always be a bit boring.
Delicious soup! Our toddler loved it too, left out the chilli for her of course and we added freshly ground pepper to our bowls. I didn't see the point of adding the olive oil, because it's not like you're frying the carrots or anything. I think it might make the soup smoother, but we didn't add it and we didn't miss it either.
grawk, I get it at 248 calories without yoghurt if using 2tbs oil (add another 20-50 cals depending on type of yoghurt and amount you'd add). You could use 1 tsp oil to get it to 196 calories for the soup alone. If you stretch it to 6 portions it could be between 128 - 163 calories per portion, without bread or yoghurt.
As usual, I cooked too much, so I have put the extra soup in the freezer for another day. It's a wonderfully nutritious soup that is really easy to take as a pack up to work. Highly recommended!

Following others' suggestions, I used 2 tsp cumin seeds, fried up with a small unpeeled, chopped potato, a red onion, pinch of chilli flakes, a clove of garlic and a heaped tsp of grated ginger. Then added only 100ml milk, 1L veg stock and all carrots and lentils and just simmered it away while I was doing other things, then stick blended. Perfection and an easy way to get lots of iron apparently! Didn't bother with any extras as it's creamy enough from the milk. I also don't think you need bread or anything else with this if you put the potato in.
This soup is very tasty but I don't bother with milk: I just use stock. I do have an issue with the calorie count however. It is listed as 238 calories per serving. The ingredients list includes naan bread and a dollop of yoghurt. With naan bread containing 336 calories per 100g it would be helpful to have more exact weights/measurements for those of us watching the calories. I find this site an excellent source of recipes but would really appreciate more precise information about what exactly is included in the calorie count. Compare "Hairy Dieters" who tell you how many calories are included in the dish then how many more you add if you eat e.g. rice or potatoes with it.
I tried this recipe out the other night, and the soup was wonderful! I added some coriander seeds and fresh coriander, and it made a really warming and tasty soup.

Wow, great recipe. I had to play with it though as I only had half the amount of carrots required, so added the same quantity of parnips. I didn't have cumin seeds or chilli flakes, so used powder. And I put it in the simmering oven of my Aga for far too long! But as I was intending to blitz it anyway, it really didn't matter. An absolute winner.
So easy. Put the ingredients into the slow cooker as per instructions. Put in ground cumin, tumeric, half a teaspoon of ginger and some parsnip that I grated. Beautiful thick soup that cooked whilst I was out shopping. Whizzed it up and froze it ready to be had at a later date with some crusty bread. Yum!
I've made this a few times with different tweaks each time. For the ultimate soup, add a small chopped onion when frying the spices (and 1tsp turmeric and coriander and a little chili powder) then add a diced potato to help thicken it up. Finally skip the milk but add a good squirt of tomato puree. Absolutely fantastic!

Hi Kanin, thanks for getting in touch, lentils are small pulses, similar to peas which are dried and used in soups, stews and dhal recipes. They come in different colours and types. The ones for this recipe are the red split kind which are a deep orange colour and look a bit like a tiny flat disc. We have a glossary page on lentils which may help a little more http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/glossary/lentils. Hope this helps, let us know how you get on or if you need more information.

Counter closed: The rules that will hit OTC trading
As Europe prepares to introduce rules that will drive up the cost of over-the-counter derivatives trading, fears are growing that some investors could be left in the cold.
The problem is that the regulations, likely to come into force next year, are making OTC derivatives business less profitable, leading investment banks to focus on their largest clients or walk away from the business altogether. This could leave smaller buyside clients out in the cold or force them to trade products that may not be suited to their needs. However, it also opens opportunities for non-traditional players to fill the void.
Christian Lee, head of the clearing, risk and regulatory practice at consultancy Catalyst, said: "The new OTC derivatives regulations may have perverse and unintended consequences. The stark reality is that some banks are not seeing OTC derivatives clearing as a service they can make money out of. This then reduces or eliminates choices for end users. By being driven out of the OTC market, end clients could actually be assuming more risk, which is the opposite of regulators' intentions."
Gavin Dixon, European head of derivatives clearing services at BNP Paribas, said: "There is a risk that some clients will be left in the cold as happened in the US last year. Many brokers will not necessarily have the time or resources to service all the clients that are out there. You have to prioritise and clearly, given a fixed timeline, the top priorities are going to be the clients that you already have relationships with."
The saga began in 2009, when G20 governments mandated sweeping reforms to OTC derivatives, which at present are traded privately between counterparties, to reduce risk and increase transparency. The derivatives in question are usually products to hedge risks, such as interest rate or currency movements.
One of the measures is that these previously private deals will need to be routed via clearing houses, which will guarantee the trade even if one party collapses, reducing the risk of domino-like failures across the market. To make this guarantee possible, the clearing house holds collateral – usually cash or government bonds – which it can sell to cover the costs of any default.
In Europe, the approval of Nasdaq OMX's clearing house in mid-March started the clock ticking for many of the most popular OTC derivatives that will need to be processed through clearing houses under rules known as the European Market Infrastructure Regulation.
Under current proposals from the European Securities and Markets Authority, the buyside may not have to start clearing trades until 2016, but some have said they expect complacency to be a factor and that there may still be a rush to the door close to the deadline.
But imposing extra safeguards and new transparency requirements on a previously opaque market does not come cheap.
Clearing house members – i.e. brokers – must post collateral on behalf of their clients but also need to contribute to a default fund that is used by the clearing house in exceptional circumstances to cover any losses. The more clients a broker takes on, the larger the contribution it needs to make to the default fund.
As such, brokers now have an incentive to be picky about their clients.
Lee McCormack, head of business development for clearing at Nomura, said: "The costs and resources required for OTC derivatives clearing mean that it is no longer a network-type business where more clients equal more profit. Offering a swap clearing service is a finite resource. Banks and brokers are likely to favour clients that have potential to bring them business in other areas."
Emir also means brokers and clearing houses need to enable clients to ring-fence the collateral held against swap trades. The type of segregation that clients opt for can also reduce the profitability of the banks' swap trading businesses.
When trading listed derivatives, brokers collect collateral from clients they serve before delivering this collateral to the clearing house. If two clients have positions that offset each other, the broker will not have to post any collateral to the clearing house and can use it to invest in other areas.
With OTC derivatives, however, deals are more varied so there is much less chance that brokers will be able to enjoy this benefit if clients opt for maximum protection. This will require brokers to ring-fence the collateral they collect from clients, meaning they are unable to reuse it.
Many large fund managers that are in discussions with clearing brokers are expected to favour full segregation of collateral, but there is some worry that brokers may be pricing these services too high.
Xavier Hoche, chief operating officer of trading and securities financing at Axa Investment Managers, said: "While we had initially planned to go for full segregation, we have now decided to choose the omnibus model first. Individual segregation is a brand new concept for many clearing brokers and clearing houses, we cannot really afford it based on the current costs being charged by some firms, and the high operational risk associated with it currently. We will revisit this next year."
There is also an issue of timing. Infrequent users of derivatives or smaller firms with fewer resources may not yet have thought about the brokers they want to use, which will lead to a last-minute rush as the deadline to clear swaps approaches.
Hoche said: "We started discussions with potential clearing brokers quite early in an effort to avoid any potential bottlenecks, but smaller firms that have less trades to clear and less resources may face difficulties, in particular because clearing brokers may be reluctant to on-board firms with minimal volumes."
Dixon at BNP Paribas said: "Come the end of the summer, some clients will wake up and realise they only have four to six months before they are obliged to clear and there will be a mad rush as they seek to get up and running. It could take many months just to get the legal documentation completed where a client wants to heavily negotiate."
Tight deadlines and a reluctance by banks and brokers to take on new business will have several consequences that might introduce new risks. If smaller clients are frozen out of the market, they could opt to trade exchange-listed derivatives rather than over-the-counter products.
Infrequent users of derivatives may find adequate alternatives like swap futures – newly created listed derivatives that aim to offer a similar exposure to privately traded derivatives – but others may find these products do not meet their needs.
Dixon said: "Some firms, such as those that need to hedge a bond issue, will need to use swaps to obtain the right exposure that matches cashflows. Those firms will either have to bear the additional costs – clearing fees plus costs of margin – or decide to trade different products, which could introduce new basis risk [a risk that a trade and its hedge get out of line so the hedge stops working as it should]."
Contract terms
Clients may also find that they are forced to accept terms and conditions from brokers with little room for manoeuvre. For example, according to McCormack, some firms may have to accept contract terms that allow brokers to collect additional collateral at their discretion and within a short time frame, or termination conditions that allow brokers to cease providing clearing services at short notice.
McCormack at Nomura said: "These can be huge risks for clients. Terminating an agreement with a short notice period, for example, could shut firms out of the market until they can find alternatives."
Firms such as Nomura and Bank of America Merrill Lynch, which have not traditionally been huge players in the swaps market, are looking to pick up the slack that may result from the capacity shortage.
McCormack said: "There is a good opportunity here for firms like Nomura and we can hope to gain a natural market share of this business. Given the limited resources that some brokers have, clients may need to go to multiple clearing brokers to get the services they need. Those firms that have a credible platform and product offering are likely to get a good market share."

- Abstract
- A study of the response of the nitriding steel, 34CrAlNi7, to two different nitriding techniques revealed remarkable differences. The techniques used were pulsed plasma nitriding and plasma immersion ion implantation over a range of temperatures from 300 to 500 degrees celsius. The surface produced by the pulsed plasma nitriding consisted of a nitride layer whose thickness varied with temperature, with an underlying diffusion zone. Plasma immersion ion implantation treatment, however, formed nitrides only at the lowest temperature, with most of the nitrogen in solid solution. Although quite different surface structures resulted from the two treatments, similar improvements in wear performance were obtained.

Clarita Corona's Alhambra-based Arte Flamenco Theatre celebrates Spanish dance in 124th Rose Parade
By Jana J. Monji 12/25/2012
This holiday season has more hustle and bustle than usual for Clarita Corona and her dance company, Arte Flamenco Theatre. For the first time, the troupe will be part of a Pasadena tradition: the Rose Parade, now in its 124th year.
"We've always been working on New Year's Eve, so I've never attended or even participated in decorating the floats," says Corona, who was born and raised in East Los Angeles.
Corona began dancing as a child, studying Spanish and flamenco dance under such famous people as Jose Greco, Jose Molina, Luisa Triana and Dolores and Jose Fernandez. Eventually, she went to Spain, where she continued the study of Spanish classical, regional and flamenco dance in Seville while performing with various other dance companies and dancers, among them Manolo Marin, Mario Maya, Juan Manuel and Juana Amaya. She also studied with renowned La Tati Cristobal Reyes in Madrid. At that time, Corona, or "La Clara," toured as a solo performer.
When she returned to the United States in 1989, Corona founded the Arte Flamenco Dance Theatre, which includes dancers, singers and musicians, and began touring the nation. Eventually, she settled down and founded a school in Alhambra, the Arte Flamenco and The Center of Worldance.
In the past, Corona and her company danced at the Old Pasadena restaurant La Luna Negra, but now she's gone back to focusing on touring while giving private and theater performances. Corona also currently teaches flamenco classes at Pasadena City College, where students give a performance as part of their final exam.
It was the city of Alhambra that invited Clarita and her company to participate in this year's Rose Parade as part of the community's tribute to Granada, Alhambra's sister city in Spain.
According to the Tournament of Roses media guide, the theme of the city's float is "Going to Granada, Spain!" celebrating the 50th anniversary of Granada and Alhambra as sister cities, which is part of the overall parade theme of "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" Built by the Phoenix Decorating Co., the float features a representation of the Alhambra Castle and the Court of the Lions and kicks off a year-long celebration between the two cities.
When the city of Alhambra invited Corona and her company to participate, she was amazed at the synchronicity. "I had just been in Granada this last summer," Clarita exclaimed. "The float has all the nuances of Granada."
Ten members of Clarita's dance company will be walkers, and an additional four young ladies who had to audition will be on the float itself: two flamenco students and two folklorico students. Those four won't be dancing.
As for the walkers, they'll be dancing something original with the "essence of what flamenco dance is," Corona explained. However, "we can't do heel work. That's an impossibility. Heel work on cement … that would just destroy us," Corona said.
The company is currently working on getting their bearings and modifying the choreography.
So far, Corona's gotten advice from experienced walkers to wear comfortable shoes, eat lots of good food the night before and enjoy the experience. The costumes are being designed and created specifically for the Rose Parade, with Corona making some of them herself.
Audiences can look forward to "very traditional, stunning flamenco dresses" and "vibrant music," she said.
This New Year's Day, the world will get to see one of Alhambra's cultural treasures, as Corona and her company bring the beauty of Spanish dance to millions of TV viewers nationwide.

Yesterday I had a phone conversation with a dear female friend to discuss her dating situations. During the call I asked how many times she had gone out with the guy she is currently seeing...she has not 'slept' with the guy. She said 7 times.
When I heard this I was a little bit shocked...not for her but for myself as I compared it to my own experience over the last 3 years. I cannot remember dating anyone where I didn't have sex by the 3rd date. My dear female friend, bless her heart, said that is because I am really hot.
Now I don't know about that haha....but I am concerned that maybe - just maybe, the serial part of my serial monogamy is largely due to getting it 'in' very early in my relationships. I remember telling myself I would not sleep with my last gf on the 3rd date,...even having a conversation with another female friend on the way to the gfs house telling her I was not going to have sex. The record shows I failed miserably....a victim of moral turpitude, perhaps (my new favorite words...right up there with 'tomfoolery').
Ok...as I embark further with several interested women I ask these questions:
1. What is normal?
2. Does having sex early on begin a relationship 'death knoll?'
3. If the answer to #2 is YES...what do I do stay chaste? Should I set a minimal number of dates or plan a bunch of activity dates like rock climbing, polo or barrel jumping?
4. Should I start going back to church? I almost went to confession a few weeks ago after reflecting on a few sins.
Keeping in mind I am not really a 'playuh' but seem to have a lot of opportunities for fast sex...and they ALWAYS want more (maybe God's joke on womankind haha).
I want to do what is right, yes I do, and not be the proverbial dog (sorry Sam haha) returning to his....
Thank you for your consideration and input!

Have been doing some research on DP markers and the techt bolt comes up a bunch, but not as much in regards to the E1. Does it improve the marker enough to make it worth the $70? Anyone used the bolt and have any before and after numbers on efficiency? The G3 bolt looks similar and I hear good things since the second revision.

When the Suzuki Swift arrived in NZ it began giving the beat-down in sales numbers to almost every other hatchback in our market. Even the Toyota Corolla struggles to match the Swift's sales figures. A key reason behind the Swift's success is its affordability, but for some it's still not affordable enough. For those folk there is now a second, cheaper Suzuki option. No, not the Alto, a third option then – the Splash. Suzuki has sandwiched the Splash hatch between the superstar Swift and the entry-point Alto. Priced from $17,990 the Splash undercuts the base model Swift by $2,500 but shares the same platform. While it's not a brand new model, having been offered in Europe for the past three years, it's new to NZ. An interesting character for sure, and being marketed as the Swift's little sister, it's arrived with big expectations. Car and SUV spent some time with this Swift understudy to discover what sort of sister the Splash really is.
In terms of exterior styling, the Splash isn't the prettiest member of the Suzuki family but it does have a certain upright appeal.

Why am I doing this? One simple reason.
I think for any person to any company business opportunities are based on the ability to develop oneself in its network, especially in Mexico, where "what matters is who you know."
¿Qué le propongo?
Since 1996 I have established with my team and a powerful directory qualitative approximately 10,000 executives at 5,000 companies and government offices in Mexico.
We offer online access through purchase or gain points which give access to the full details of the companies or acquiring the entire database in electronic version on CD-ROM at a cost unmatched in the market!
And that helps you do business!
