Military Mom Surprises Sons With Christmas Homecoming At Jazz Game [Video]
If this doesn't warm your hearts, than you definitely got coal in your Christmas stocking. These two young Jazz fans hadn't seen their Mother since April, when she went to serve in Afghanistan. Little did they know, she would surprise them on Christmas in front of a sold out Energy Solutions Arena. Military homecomings are the best.

Thread: Is having a great LT overrated?
Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
to the OP... Nope, not in the slightest. LT is still the 2nd most important position on the offensive side of the ball, and perhaps even moreso then any single defensive position.
Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
Thank You. That's what I said too. That's why the top LTs are the top 5 picks in the draft.
Everyone needs/wants one.
As for footwork, KO was moved to LG because of all the guys breezing by him on the end,
same with Oher on the other end. From everything I read and saw they had slow footwork.
You really can't teach that. You either have it or you don't but Castillo is still the one who
can make KO a LT or at least be better than what we got.
I really don't see any in this draft that can help except the top 2 or 3 that will go high and
it will cost Oz an arm and leg to trade up. Even the guy from Fla State and Englandwho is really a project and Ravens brought him in months ago will probably go high and he only
has 1 year of experience, I think. Maybe 2 but he was playing Rugby over in England
and here in the states, yet he will be drafted in the first round after protecting his
QB well.
Footwork is absolutely something that can be taught. It is the same concept as running a route as a receiver. Hardly any player comes into the league polished. Even the top flight guys have to be coached up. What would be the point of having positional coaches if every prospect drafted automatically had proper footwork or ran impeccable routes?
What cannot be taught is having long arms, which Oher does not have.
Whether or not their footwork is poor has nothing to do with the change up before the playoffs and everything to do with Jah Reid getting hurt and them turning to a guy who can only play LT (McKinnie). Had Jah stayed healthy, McKinnie may have continued to ride the pine. Would the Ravens have won it all with that set up? Maybe, but who really knows (or cares)? They did win, so the point is moot.
Out of curiosity, do you have anything at all as a source for your belief that "poor footwork" was the cause of the OL shuffling?

Couldn't disagree with you more. QB's and receivers could be argued to impact games more than OT's. 10-15 years ago, you would be right. The way the NFL is now puts the onus on the QB and receivers.
I think a legitimate argument could even be made for corners, safeties, and pass rushers having more of an impact on today's NFL than OTs.
That is just kind of the way the game is now.

Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
yep, we disagree by a LOT...
Yu brin up WR's? Really? How manysuperbowls do Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitz, Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, AJ Green, Ju;lio Jones, etc... the list can go on... have COMBINED. The answer is still zero.
I would MAYBE agree with Corner. MAYBE. Offensively there is not a positiion that is close. Heck, TE is quite possibly more important then WR in today's NFL. WR is among the lower tier positions.
Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
Three of the top 5 picks in this year's draft could be LTs. To me, that speaks volumes about the importance of a LT in the NFL. A team can certainly win with a serviceable LT (just as a team can win with a serviceable QB), but it doesn't change the fact that LT is a coveted position.

Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
In answer to the OP, quite simply yes. Trying to argue with the who believe it to be overly important is like arguing with creationist or flat earthers, no matter how much empirical evidence you show them, they refuse to believe it. Very few people on this earth possess the quality to play the position, so when you can draft one, it makes sense. Using this year's draft is even a weaker argument. There have been 4 guards drafted in the top 10 in the draft since 1980. Two are projected to go this year. The skill position players are weak this year.
You really don't have to look much further than the Ravens to see how overrated the position is. People like to say, look how the offense took off when the put McKinney in, while down playing the rest of the changes. You could just as easily say, if LT was so important why, have the Ravens won almost twice as many playoff games (9) without Ogden, than with him(5). I don't think there could have been a much bigger drop off at that position. I know you can point to Flacco, but if LT was really the end all be all, would a QB that has never made a pro bowl really make that much more a difference than going from arguably the greatest LT of all time, to what many of the biggest defenders of the position call the worst LT in the game? Especially when an argument could be made that the rest of the team is worse (at least older) than when JO was playing.
Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
strawman.... EVERYONE knows that QB is the most important position in all of pro sports. You answered your own question. We won in spite of our QB when JO was here, and since have won in spite of not having a great LT. Great teams can be constructed with less then stellar players at ANY position, including QB, but doing so with merely adequate QB's is the hardest.
And Oher isn't the worst... Arizona doesn't possess a better LT, Bushrod is equalish.... MIA is probaly worse off at the moment... With Gaither cut the Chargers have no one... that might be it though.
what could be funny to some though, is that within 48 hours there is likely to be at least 3 teams with not only 1, but 2 better LT's than the Ravens. Cheifs/Pats/Rams.

Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
I am still trying to figure out how the second most important position on a team does not contribute to wins, almost the inverse. Again, there is no point arguing.
Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
because it DOES contribute to wins. Just not in a visible way to peopel that watch football at a very basic, elementary level.
What do you think is the second most important position. I can easily punch as many holes in that theory as you are with this theory. A LT on terrible team isnt going to make a team great, just as a WR, RB etc wont either. ONLY a QB has the opportunity to change the dynamic of a team. Even then, it's hard to do alone.

Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
Just like every other position DOES contribute to wins. Again if it was as important as you say there is no way we win the Superbowl last year. Especially since, as you say "within 48 hours there is likely to be at least 3 teams with not only 1, but 2 better LT's than the Ravens. Cheifs/Pats/Rams. " Unless you believe Joe is that much better than Brady that he could overcome that.

Lekhwiya have concluded a remarkable debut season in the Qatar Stars League by being crowned champions.
A 3-0 victory over Umm Salal on Friday 3-0 gave maintained a five-point margin over Al Gharafa, winners of the last three championships, with only one round of matches remaining. The club known as Al Shorta until 2009, finished last at the second (and lowest) league level as recently as 2008, but claimed promotion with several matches to spare last year.

From JC staff member Julio: If you've never tried one of her cakes you should stop by and try the lemon drops, sugar cookies, brownies, custom cakes, and the list goes on and on. Let Them Eat Cake is all the rave in pastries and we're so glad to have them." We also spoke with Anita today and she informed us that the OFFICIAL opening will be this Thursday, November 1st. Hours of operation are 7ish AM until 5PM Tuesday through Friday and then Saturday 8:30AM - 2PM. They will serve coffee and breakfast pastries in the morning and cupcakes, cookies, desserts and whole cakes throughout the day. In addition, if you're wondering where that Cappuccino Torte that Biscotti's used to serve went to.....you can get it at Let Them Eat Cake!"Last night we popped in at the exclusive opening of Let Them Eat Cake's new location on St John's Avenue (3604 St. Johns Ave. across the street from Brick Restaurant). Anita, the owner, showered her guests with mouth watering treats and bottomless glasses of wine. The new and more visible location is sure to attract many more customers and we wish her much success in the new locale.

Let Them Eat Cake!
22 comments:
I have had many desserts from Let Them Eat Cake and have never been disappointed. The cupcakes are so delicious that you just can't eat one. The staff there are very courteous and helpful.They will special make any orders in 24 hours, and one time even told me to come back in a couple of hours. Try them out! You will never go to Publix again.
Let them Eat Cake is ok, in the sense that their product is at least halfway decent, but they really aren't the nicest or most helpful people.
My main gripe with them is that they insist on having like 2 weeks' lead time to prepare a silly birthday cake that takes all of 4 hours to bake. If you don't call far in advance, they will refuse your order.
And if you ever ask them if you can just buy any of the 60 different cakes sitting in the display case or all over the store, they're always "sold", or "reserved", etc.
So let me get this straight, we're going to have a cake store with a bunch of glass display cases full of cakes that we can't sell. ROFL. Makes sense to me...
Every time I've tried to deal with them, they figure out some way to hassle you for no reason. The last time, I found out that my Dad was going to be in town for his B-day, and called a week or so in advance trying to get (IIRC) a chocolate ganache cake. They quoted me $65, and told me they wouldn't have it ready until after the date I needed it on. Well that wasn't going to work, so I asked whether, since there was a lot of time left between now and then, couldn't they just put a rush on it and charge me a little more? (If you can even consider taking a week to make a chocolate cake a "rush" in the first place...LOL). Their answer, naturally, was "No".
At that point, I threw in the towel on trying to deal with them anymore. The day before the birthday party, I walked over to Biscottis, one of Let Them Eat Cake's business customers, and they happily sold me the same exact whole cake I wanted, MADE BY LET THEM EAT CAKE, right out of their display case for $40, and I left with it 2 minutes after I walked in, and paid $20+ LESS. I went down to publix, and they did the writing for me, problem solved. LOL.
Honestly, those L.T.E.C. people are just ridiculous, it isn't worth the hassle to try and deal with them. The French Pantry also makes knock-your-socks off cakes, and they can turn them out on a day's notice, and are happy to do it for you with a smile on their face. Oh ya, and the stuff in their display cases is (logically enough) actually for sale. - 2:15 PM
This is another place that has a following simply because of the Lemming mentality that follows people over the bridge from Ortega. Right up there with Whiteway Deli and Goal Post Sandwich Shop.
"Oh they have the best, (insert mediocre food item here)"
You walk in there and some douche living off their Daddy's money looks down their nose at you.
Is this place ever even open? Every time I go by it on the way to The Fox, the only thing I see is the cash drawer on the counter.
We ordered a birthday cake from there and they said it would be $70. I laughed and went to the French Pantry.
Oh, and I believe The Fox is using their cupcakes now...THEY SUCK! Bring back the ones you used to have Ian!!! - 1:48 AM
L.T.E.C. is great. They are worth ordering in advance because they are made from scratch.
The French Pantry also makes their cakes from scratch, and yet SOMEHOW they still manage to be POLITE, and don't achieve multiple orgasms through hassling their customers about about every possible little thing.
And miraculously, the French Pantry can also make an equally good cake with a day or two's notice, and with a smile on their face. Now I know that's absolutely shocking, considering that a cake takes all of 4 or 5 hours to bake, which naturally according to Let Them Eat Cake would require a 10+ day advance notice, but SOMEHOW, no doubt due to a miracle from heaven, or maybe intervention of the baking gods, the French Pantry actually manages to turn out a cake in less than two weeks!
This is shocking, I know. Personally, I still can't figure out how they do it! The French Pantry must have 10,000 smuggled chinese immigrants working around the clock in a gingerbread sweatshop to pull that off...
Gimme a break! Let Them Eat Cake is ridiculous, and they seriously get off by hassling you. Save yourself the trouble, and just go to the French Pantry, you will thank me for it later. - 12:15 PM

In my opinion, Let Them Eat Cake has some pretty damn amazing brownies. And I've eaten a lot of them from all over the place. It is worth going for the brownies alone. And my mom is crazy for the chocolate meringues.
In the meantime, can someone please, please recommend a very good coffee shop in Riverside/Avondale. You know, the kind with excellent espresso and coffee and a decent place to hang out for 20 minutes and read the paper. I'm sick of going to Starbucks...Thanks. - 11:46 PM
- waynepeace said...
This place has great brownies and chocolate meringues. I agree, the service can be a little cold, and the store itself could use some charm. But I've always really enjoyed what I've bought there--and I'm a dessert freak. It's worth trying.
By the way, can anyone recommend a really good coffee shop in Riverside/Avondale? One with amazing espresso and coffee and a nice place to sit and read the paper for 20 minutes? I'm sick of waiting in the slow line at 5-points Starbucks! Thanks - 11:51 PM
You people are harsh on my fave place for cupcakes! LTEC is the best. French Pantry was great, but I heard they closed recently.
Keep the goodies coming LTEC!! - 4:30 PM

YOU GOTTA LOVE THAT LAST COMMENT, so the Fox is different than whiteways or goal post? Need to stay on the ortega side of the bridge DOUCHE! - 1:25 PM
Yeah, he kinda lost me with that one too. He had me going there for awhile, because Whiteway, Goal Post, and Let Them Eat Cake all really do suck. But then he says he goes to the Fox, which is the biggest bastion of crappy mediocrity around, so ya...that's kinda weird.
And by the way, the name 'Let Them Eat Cake' must refer to their attitude towards their customers, because this woman and that girl who helps her run the place are both royally snotty. I have tried going there three separate times now, and each time was a freaking disaster. The first time I went, the woman behind the counter greeted me and then immediately took a phone call. At first I waited patiently, thinking it wouldn't be long, but after about 10 minutes of standing there watching her talk on the phone, it had gotten to be just plain rude so I walked out and left. A few months later I gave them another shot, and exactly like the other poster mentioned, everything I asked about in the display case was "sold" or "reserved" and they were really snotty about it.
Then the last time I tried going, it was the middle of the afternoon and that b!tchy woman and the snotty girl who run the place were both in there, but the door was locked. I knocked, and she came over and said "we're closed, sorry, come back another time" and turned her back to me, even though their business hours sign said they should be open. So screw them, at this point I wouldn't go back again. They are snotty and the French Pantry is better anyway. - 5:06 PM
Obviously you people that wrote negative comments about LTEC have never actually been inside the place! They are more than happy to sell anything that they have in the case and will also make up cupcakes on the spot. I was there last week and the person ahead of me bought out all the strawberry creme cupcakes. I voiced my disappointment and the girl working told me no problem that she could whip me up some in no time. I had my dozen within minutes and headed on my way. I have ordered special order cakes from them also with only 24 hours notice and they are delicious!
Waynepeace-Riverside/Avondale is in serious need of a good coffee shop. I did however have an amazing Latte at The Bungalow on Park Street recently and they have outdoor seating so you can read your paper or people watch. - 11:17 AM
Sorry, but you're completely wrong. I live two blocks away from L.T.E.C., and I've been inside the place several times, and I've also tried to deal with them on the phone as well. Every time, I came away frustrated by a total lack of customer service and a snotty "we don't care" attitude.
And yes, I repeatedly asked about stuff in the display case, only to be told "Sorry, that's 'reserved' or 'that's not for sale' ". I wrote a detailed review above, and I didn't just make this stuff up. These people are just ridiculous, and I would advise anyone considering doing business with them to save the trouble and just go to the French Pantry. - 12:04 PM
Oh yeah, I just finished reading the rest of your comment, and saw the part about how much you like Bungalow on Park. That explains it then...NO WONDER you think L.T.E.C. is so great, it's because Bungalow got you used to crappy service and bad attitudes. LOL
Never had a problem with service and the desserts are good no matter what you choose. Hard to believe anyone had a bad experience here, as long as special orders are placed in advance.
Ya, well, it's how FAR in advance that poses the problem. Should it really take a week or more advance notice just to get a birthday cake? WTF? It takes like 3 hours to make a cake. That's some customer-service there!
IF you have ever baked a cake, yes it takes approx. 3 hours to prepare and completely bake but to torte a cake its best to bake one day and ice the next. Look it up. Quality.
Beside the point ...isn't it first come first serve? - 1:15 PM
Billy Bob...look...nobody's bitching about an extra day to make a torte. These L.T.E.C. people demand a week or 10 days at a MINIMUM, or they'll refuse your order. That's just effin' ridiculous.
And I don't think anybody was bitching about "first come first serve" either. I think their point was that, if you have display cases (not a freezer in the back, but actual display cases in the front of the store) filled with cakes, then shouldn't they actually be for sale? - 3:53 PM
Geez, sounds like some of you just need something to complain about regardless of the business. You're probably more of a pain than it's worth as a customer. Publix just doesn't have a choice but to deal with you.
Here's an idea. Maybe all the cakes in case really are sold and waiting for pickup. I can't imagine it would be good business practice to just make a bunch of random cakes in hopes that someone will come in asking about that particular cake. Unlike Publix those cakes I'm sure are made from scratch without all kinds of processed garbage that keeps them alive for 2 years in your fridge. They do have a shelf life.
If you like your prepackaged, frozen pastries then go back to Publix or Starbucks and quit complaining. There are a lot of people in this town that love LTEC. - 9:07 AM
Please, I'm sure not buying any pre-made cakes at Publix. The French Pantry makes a better product than Let Them Eat Cake, costs less, and doesn't have any attitude, asinine rules, or make you notify them 4 years in advance to get a cake. Your statements make it sound like it's either L.T.E.C. or Publix, and that's not the case. There are lots of other (and better) places to go. ;-)
I wish Siblings Eatery and Gourmet Foods was still open. They had the greatest cakes ,cookies etc. as well as great sandwiches. Great people too. I think maybe their location wasn't great over by Blue Cross on Riverside.
Anonymous.....I am sure you do enjoy the cakes at French Pantry but are you aware that one of the "snotty" women you keep complaining about at Let Them Eat Cake was previously a baker at The French Pantry? There is an obvious similarity in L.T.E.C. strawberry cupcake and the wedding cake from The French Pantry. Almost all the shops in that area are a little "snotty." If you are sensitive to that, it is probably not the best area to spend your money.
CWW... Have you ever actually been to FP?!

I've always loved photography and grew up using the great little Pentax K1000 and devouring copy after copy of National Geographic. Being somewhat a traditionalist, it's only been a year since I switched to digital. Most of my photos focus on nature and tend more towards documentary, but I spend most days sizing up my surroundings in hope of a good photo (when I'm not being an arts administrator). I've also started to try out gig photography at work and really love it.

Bluetooth inside? You betcha!
Apple is joining the board of the Bluetooth standards organization as the group focuses the latest iteration of Bluetooth on the burgeoning market for fitness and health sensor data from mobile devices. The Bluetooth SIG said Tuesday that Apple and Nordic Semiconductor were joining the organization, and also announced its goals of moving into the mobile sensor market with its latest version of the Bluetooth standard.
Bluetooth, which gained ubiquity in the form of headsets, is a wireless data transfer protocol that delivers chunks of data in close proximity, making it good for voice and even as a runaround to official mobile broadband tethering. But it has long sucked batteries like I gulp my coffee on a Monday morning, which made it less-than-ideal for sensors. This became more of an issue as companies experimented with devices like connected pedometers and other sensors that attach to a person's clothing or accessories to monitor things like heart rate or temperature.
As smartphones and connected devices proliferated the idea of real-time health and fitness tracking from a smartphone became cheaper, easier and more available to the casual consumer, which has spawned a few personal area networking technologies that want to become for bioinformatics what Bluetooth became for headsets. But Bluetooth wants to be the Bluetooth of bioinformatics too and hopes its new low energy standard and recently added profiles to support medical sensors is the key to the sensor market. With Apple on the board it may have a better chance.
I covered the rise of bioinformatics and the standards vying to become the protocol of choice for the market in a GigaOM Pro report in January (subscription required), and in an interview with the Bluetooth SIG's Executive Director Mike Foley, learned about Bluetooth's bioinformatics goals. At the time Apple used a proprietary version of the Bluetooth standard for delivering sensor data from the pedometers in Nike shoes use less power than the previous version of Bluetooth (as opposed to the new Low Energy standard), but perhaps its move to become a board member means we'll see a more ubiquitous standard for sensor data make it's way into Apple's popular iPhone and iPod touch products, and thus to the rest of the consumer device markets.

In this post, Why the heck did I buy this and what can I do with it Wednesday: Sea kelp extract, Carmit80 asks: For foaming cleansers I see you don't add any carrier oils as an emollient. Would this be possible or even effective? Would l we then need to add the emulsifiers? Thanks!
There are a few questions here that I would like to address...
Why don't I add oils as emollients?
Would it be possible to add oils to a foaming cleanser?
Would we add an emulsifier to a foaming cleanser?
The answer to the first question is that I generally don't add carrier oils to foaming products like body washes, facial washes, bubble baths, and so on as oils can suppress and even destroy the bubbles, lather, and foam in a product.
There are other ways to add emolliency to a foaming cleanser that won't suppress the bubbles. We can use ingredients like glycol distearate or Crothix to both thicken and moisturize, or add ingredients like water soluble olive oil (or PEG-7 olivate), water soluble shea oil, PEG-7 glyceryl cocoate, myristamine oxide, and so on. These ingredients are less likely to suppress foam and lather than an oil.
Is it possible to add oils to a foaming clanser? Yes. A lot of surfactants - the ingredients we use to make the products foamy, lathery, and bubbly - are good emulsifiers, meaning they can incorporate oil easily into the product. If you have something like C14-16 olefin sulfonate, you can easily add something like 5% carrier oils along with your 1% fragrance or essential oil and see it mix well. Use something like disodium laureth sulfosuccinate and you'll need a solubilizer. If you really want to use carrier oils, then you'll have to check each surfactant to see what it can handle.
If your surfactants can't emulsify well, you'll have to use a solubilizer like polysorbate 80, caprylyl/capryl glucoside, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, Cromollient SCE, Caprol Micro Express, and so on. (You can't use an emulsifier like Polawax or Incroquat BTMS-50 as they aren't suitable for these kinds of products.) Some of these solubilizers - especially the last two - are great emollients on their own!

Testosterone Information |
Edward Lichten, M.D.,PC |
Is there a Male 'Menopause?'
"Although women authors including Gail Sheehy and Susan Rako, M.D. have described this deficient testosterone state in men, almost no one talks about it and almost no one does anything about it," states Dr. Lichten. "When I experienced the 'hot flashes' at 48 years of age
tnat would wake me with night shirts soaking wet, no one suggested to me to measure my hormones. They said male 'menopause' was an illusion!" "And I found not only relief from night sweats,
"I do not think that I am the only 50+ year old male Background Information: Testosterone is recognized as the hormone of puberty: it makes muscles for boys and turns them into sexually functional men. But as men age, testosterone's effect regulates muscle development and skin and penile turgor. The decreases in testosterone experienced with time can have profound effects on a man's health. The normal range of testosterone is reported as 350- 1200ng/dl. Studies in the 1940's showed the average testosterone level to be at 700 ng/dl, 300 ng/dl higher than for men today. In the past, a drop in testosterone levels to 250 ng/dl was rarely reported before men were 80 years of age. Yet today, it is not an uncommon value for middle aged men! Testosterone levels are highest in the early twenties. The decrease in serum levels is now occurring at an even earlier age. Up to 50% of all men at 40 now have testosterone levels below what was considered the normal range of 450 ng/dl. Recent studies imply that the pesticides and preservatives in foods and the hormone pellets to fatten up cattle, pork and chicken act as "hormonal disruptors." Based on the low sperm counts, infertility, obesity and low serum testosteroneI see in younger men, I fear this is true.
Detecting Insufficient Testosterone Levels: With 80 percent of the baby boomers showing decreased levels of testosterone by 50 years of age, testosterone deficiency is a major unrecognized health problem.
Self Diagnostic Quiz
The Laboratory Test: Detecting the Problem
Testing is easily accomplished, once the decision is made. The blood test measures the serum levels of testosterone and the 'free' testosterone as well. Deficiency is denoted by a
testosterone serum level below 350 ng/dl. The blood sample should be draw in the morning because there may be significant variation depending on stress at work, exercise, or other hormonal therapy (such as DHEA, thyroid, growth hormone].
Free testosterone measurements are reported differently by different
Lastly, measurements of FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (luteining hormone) are elevated in
more men than ever considered: I find them elevated in 50% of the men with complaints of "andropause." Normal values are less than 5; often much less.
Ongoing Research
Research in our facility is now focusing on the increased role estrogens have in the aging male. Elevated levels of estrogens are associated with central obesity, gynecomastia and increased cardiovascular mortality. The physiology of estrogen in the aging male may be treatable with new drug therapies that lower estrogen and sex hormone binding globulin. In the future, physicians may be able to maintain a man's virility well into his 90's by modifying his hormone balance!
The Prostate Examination:
Before starting testosterone replacement, the man needs to have a PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood test. Values that are raised are followed by a PSA II test that may identify prostatic hypertrophy. Testosterone replacement is absolutely contraindicated in men with prostate cancer
until cleared by a urologist..
Men should repeat this prostate and PSA testing every six months or as directed by their physician.
Treatment Alternatives:
Since in healthy young men, testosterone is secreted all day long with a peak in early morning, the ideal replacement would follow this pattern. There are two common delivery mechanisms for testosterone: oral and parenteral. Parenteral refers to through the skin or injections.
The pharmaceutical companies tried to avoid this liver-toxicity issue by inventing the testosterone patch. One company, Alza Corporation, produced a scrotal patch called Testoderm®.
The individual applied the patch to a shaved scrotum and it delivered 2.5-4 mg of testosterone. It is somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.
The best delivery system, used most often since the 1940's has been intramuscular injections of testosterone. There are five injectable testosterone approved in the United States: Aqueous Testosterone: very short acting (1-2 days)
Testosterone Cyprionate: short acting (2-4 days)
Testosterone Proprionate: short acting (2-4 days)
Testosterone Enthanate: longer acting {7-10 days)
Deca-Durabolin: longer acting, offering superior muscle pain relief (7-10 days)
Physicians once mixed two or three of these to get a longer and mixed effect. With the short acting testosterones, some men will feel a rush due to the unnaturally high levels for a few days. Occasionally, they may become more aggressive and experience fluctuations in mood, energy and sexual function. But reduction of the dose and education are usually sufficient to modify his behavior.
Some compounding pharmacists will make testosterone gel in 3-10% solutions. This works similarly to the patch, but is applied twice daily. More rapid absorption occurs over thin skin (scrotum, face) while slower absorption occurs over the abdomen. This is aqueous testosterone-- do not use methyl -testosterone as it has liver toxicity effects.
However, we feel the best delivery system for high daily levels of testosterone is the testosterone pellets. Studies in the United States, Europe and the Far East show that
testosterone pellets can maintain a stable hormonal level for up to
30-120 days. Although there is individual variation from manufacturer and by patient, this delivery system has been the easiest for men to accept when long term replacement is indicated. This is the method most often used in our office.

Thanks sm10. I'm getting a price from a local surgeon this wk. I figure I'll write my insurer (United Health Care Choice Plus COBRA PPO) a letter after that. I would imagine it to cost more in the States, but I don't know that. I'll see if UHC will bend the rules. Not sure what a "superbill" is, but I can call Shouldice & see what they can do. I spoke with a woman from there the other day & she says her billing guy might be able to get something out of UHC, but I figured getting on it now rather than later may work in my favor. Shouldice wants $8800 for the combo inguinal & umbilical hernias.

You submit this superbill to insurance and they reimburse you according to your contract. Call UHC and find out. You may have to put the money up front and then wait to get something back. Good luck. If you can afford the outlay, go there.

PA supporters attack JVP meeting[TamilNet, Tuesday, 19 January 1999, 19:57 GMT]Eleven members and sympathisers of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) were injured when a large group of PA supporters and thugs attacked the party's meeting this afternoon at Pannala, about sixty five kilometers northwest of Colombo. The wounded have been admitted to the Kurunagala hospital. A JVP spokesman said this evening that about hundred PA persons came to the venue of the meeting and began throwing crackers at the people who were gathered there, hooting and manhandling some onlookers. Later some of them had got on to the stage and had attacked the speakers. They had also smashed up the stage said the JVP spokesman. The few Policemen who were at the scene looked on helplessly at the carnage as they were completely outnumbered he said. |

SWISS MOUNTAIN RAILWAY TECHNOLOGY - THE LANDWASSER VIADUCT V. Ryan © 2004 - 2009 |
Switzerland has large areas of land that are mountainous. In the 19th Century and before, the mountainous terrain meant that it was difficult to travel across country and consequently communications were relatively poor. Switzerland has winters that lead to high levels of snowfall. Travelling on foot or by horse was difficult and in winter very dangerous due to the geography of the country and its winter weather conditions. |
The Swiss railway engineers of the ninetieth and twentieth century had to be extremely innovative, imaginative and courageous to build a complex and efficient mountain railway system. This not only included planning and building difficult mountain routes but also the many bridges and tunnels needed to cross and go under mountainous areas. The Swiss are still investing heavily in their railway network, making it one of the most efficient and advanced in the world. |
One of the most impressive feats was the building of the Landwasser Viaduct (built 1902) which carries a mountain railway track. This is possibly one of the most famous railway viaducts / bridges in the world and is seen in most Swiss travel / holiday brochures. |
When approaching the viaduct the train travels
through the Landwasser tunnel. The engineers had to build the viaduct
starting at the end of the tunnel. The photograph above shows the tunnel
exit and a shear drop, where the viaduct begins. The viaduct has six
arches, each spanning 20m / 65 ft. The construction of the viaduct is
impressive for two reasons; |
Construction of the Landwasser Viaduct - 1902 |
The Landwasser Viaduct became famous amongst engineers because of the new techniques used during its construction. Unlike arch bridges of the past, scaffolding was not used to build the pillars. Instead, steel towers were built and the stone pillars were constructed, stone by stone, around them. The internal steel towers were extended as the height of the stone pillars grew. |
Above - the
construction of the viaduct in 1902. |
The animation shows how materials and workers were transported to the top of the stone pillars. | ||
QUESTION: 2. How do you think the arches at the top of the stone pillars were constructed? |

Obama is inviting Sheikh Mouaz Alkhatib of the Muslim Brotherhood, current head of the Syrian rebels, to Washington, who has expressed pro-Israel opinions in the past, such as writing that one of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein's positive legacies was "terrifying the Jews."
Sheikh Mouaz Akkhatib got his invite a few days after the Sheikh defended Al Qaeda. Because defending Al Qaeda is what it takes to get a Washington invite these days.
"We've made a decision that the Syrian Opposition Coalition is now inclusive enough, is reflective and representative enough of the Syrian population, that we consider them the legitimate representative of the Syrian people in opposition to the Assad regime," said Obama.
But it's not inclusive enough for Sheikh Mouaz Alkhatib who thinks Obama is a spoilsport for not recognizing Al Qaeda.
"The logic under which we consider one of the parts that fights against the Assad regime as a terrorist organization is a logic one must reconsider," Al-Khatib told reporters in Marrakesh, Morocco.
What could possibly go wrong? If the Syrian rebels don't win, it will be a real tragedy. For the ghost of Osama bin Laden, currently haunting a Holiday Inn in Marrakesh.
The FBI's hate crimes statistics actually show a slight decrease in Anti-Muslim hate crimes, but a significant increase in Anti-Catholic hate crimes which jumped from 4.2 percent to 5.2 percent.
Anti-Protestant hate crimes rose from 3.3 percent to 3.7 percent. Hate crimes targeting atheists fell from 0.5 to 0.3.
I wonder what this increase in anti-Catholic attacks could be attributed to? Paging Sandra Fluke.
On a cold winter's day, two years later, Obama celebrated the fall of Mubarak by proclaiming that "the people of Egypt have spoken, their voices have been heard, and Egypt will never be the same." Now one year later, in the teeth of another winter, an Islamist winter, Egypt seems very much the same.
Obama pledged to create a new beginning by ending, in the name of democracy, the old policy of supporting dictators, only to inaugurate a brand new policy of supporting dictators in the name of democracy. The ritual democratic elections led to the same place that they did in Iraq and the Palestinian Authority. And now Obama is forced to support a dictatorship in order to support democracy.
The world may not rest on turtles or infinite universes, but the Middle East does rest on dictators and no amount of new beginnings has changed that. Pull back one dictator and another pops up in his place. Hold elections, plan regime change, send in your activists or your warplanes, and when the dust settles and all the democracy dreamers are congratulating themselves on having pulled off a successful election, the new dictator steps out from behind the curtain to give his acceptance speech, impose martial law and begin rounding up dissidents.
…from my article "It's Dictators All The Way Down"
Rice has gone down, triangulated by Republicans and Clintonists. Rice got her job by betraying Hillary. Now she lost her dream job because she betrayed Hillary. In D.C. what goes around comes around and with Hillary being tipped for 2016, Rice's career odometer is looking really bad.
But the Rice withdrawal is also beginning to make the second term blues come out early. Second terms is usually when administrations at any executive level begin to jam up and come apart. And there are small signs that Obama Inc. is headed for the second term blahs.
Some public school teachers in the City of Detroit and around the state of Michigan are reportedly taking a vacation or a sick day today to protest right-to-work legislation likely to be approved by the state legislature.
Detroit public-school eighth graders do even worse in math than they do in reading, according to the Department of Education. While only 7 percent scored highly enough on the department's National Assessment of Educational Progress test in 2011 to be rated "proficient" or better in reading, only 4 percent scored highly enough to be rated "proficient" or better in math.
But come on, that doesn't mean that Detroit teachers should lose their tiny pitiful paychecks, just because only 4 percent of their students can count and only 7 percent of their students can read.
Does it?
So what do Detroit teachers get paid in exchange for a 4 percent and 7 percent success rate?
The Detroit metropolitan area has the highest average public school teacher pay among metropolitan areas for which data are available, at $47.28 per hour, followed by the San Francisco metropolitan area at $46.70 per hour, and the New York metropolitan area at $45.79 per hour.
Poor bankrupt Detroit pays teachers more than San Fran and NYC, cities that have actual money. The average teacher's salary in Detroit is $71,031.
Sadly though Detroit has more teachers than students because there is uh a mass exodus underway.
Detroit Public Schools had 5,029 full-time teachers and 88,774 students in 2009-10, according to the Michigan Department of Education. But DPS officials estimate that there will be 58,517 students enrolled in 2014.
Good news everybody. One day Detroit will finally achieve a one student to one teacher ratio. And if that doesn't get the scores up to 7 and 5 percent, I don't know what will.
"Anti-Soviet warrior puts his army on the road to peace: The Saudi businessman who recruited mujahedin now uses them for large-scale building projects in Sudan.
Outside Sudan, Mr Bin Laden is not regarded with quite such high esteem. The Egyptian press claims he brought hundreds of former Arab fighters back to Sudan from Afghanistan, while the Western embassy circuit in Khartoum has suggested that some of the 'Afghans' whom this Saudi entrepreneur flew to Sudan are now busy training for further jihad wars in Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt.
Mr Bin Laden is well aware of this. 'The rubbish of the media and the embassies,' he calls it. 'I am a construction engineer and an agriculturalist. If I had training camps here in Sudan, I couldn't possibly do this job.'
That was from 1993. I wonder how many news stories from 2023 will boggle our minds with their complete willful denial of reality.
Mohammad Safi is a lucky man. Graduate of a medical school in Afghanistan, Safi took in $822,302, or five times more than Governor Jerry Brown, working at a mental hospital.
As California's top public employee, Mohammad Safi logged so many hours that all the clocks melted, Dali style. In 2006, Safi was making a mere $90,682 starting salary, but not long after he was taking home more than $503,000 in on-call pay for every hour he spent hanging around in a motel somewhere near the hospital.
But we really need to crack down on obscene CEO compensation at taxpayer expense. And Mo isn't a unique overachiever. California is full of dedicated public employees collecting so much overtime that prosperity is just another tax hike and bankruptcy away.
California may be sliding toward bankruptcy, but its state employees have been raking in the gold with nearly 1 billion in overtime.
In Micronesia, Somalia and the British Virgin Islands, 1 billion dollars is their entire GDP. But in California, 1 billion dollars is overtime.
But fortunately there's a solution in sight.
Legislation introduced Tuesday would give about 400,000 undocumented immigrants in California the same rights as citizens to unemployment benefits and various other government services.
Hello Mega-Quake? I think it's time now..
The song remains the same. In the year 2030, Islamic terrorism will be over and we'll all be fighting raging armies of Christians and Hindus.
The National Intelligence Council answers to the Director of National Intelligence who was the bright fellow who edited Al Qaeda out of the CIA Benghazi talking points. So it's no wonder that he's also managed to edit Islamic terrorism out of the world in 2030. The pen truly is mightier than the sword.
But with Muslim terrorism gone by 2030, the NIC is on top of the next big terror threat.
"Taking a global perspective, future terrorists could come from many different religions, including Christianity and Hinduism. Right-wing and left-wing ideological groups – some of the oldest users of terrorist tactics – also will pose threats."
Forget Muslim terrorists, it's time to focus on those Christian and Hindu terrorists. And then the Buddhist and Amish death squads.
Folks, we're looking at a trend of Chassidic Jewish suicide bombers, Jainists ramming planes into London Bridge and Bahai states working to develop nuclear weapons.
Unitarian bus bombers are a real possibility and we can't rule out 7th Day Adventist snipers on every roof in Baltimore. And when the Secular Humanist junta takes over Bali and begins implementing secular law, then no woman will be safe.
These are the real threats we need to focus on, instead of wasting time worrying about the mythical problem of Muslim terrorism.
I even hear Osama bin Laden is abandoning terrorism and turning to construction.

Obama Backed Muslim Takeover of Cote d'Ivoire Leads to Campaign of Violence Against Gays
Victims said they immediately noticed a difference under Ouattara compared to the Gbagbo years, when such abuses were not nearly as extreme or widespread.
Ouattara signed a decree creating the FRCI in March 2011, and it was composed primarily of members of the New Forces rebel group, which used to control Côte d'Ivoire's predominantly Muslim north.
Victims almost uniformly attribute the attacks to the fact that many soldiers in the new army are Muslim.
During one attack in Abidjan's Zone 4 district in July, Raissa said a soldier invoked the Quran in justifying the violence.
"He said, "in the Qur'an it says that when you kill a homosexual you go to heaven,'" she recalled.
There are just so many ways for Muslims to go to heaven. But if Muslims ever do succeed in killing all non-Muslims, how will they ever get to heaven?
For Muslims the boxthorn tree is their botanical metaphor for the Jews, but for Israelis their own self-chosen botanical metaphor is the prickly pear. Both are thorny plants at home in the desert and more than capable of protecting themselves in that harsh environment. For Muslims the Jew is a tree that must be torn out of the soil, but the Jew in Israel sees his people becoming trees whose roots hold fast to the soil of a revived land.
…here's an excerpt from Edward Cline's new novel. Cline is the author of the Sparrowhawk series and here in "We Three Kings" he takes us to an entirely different milieu where "the "three" kings are Fury, the hero; Sheik Quamisi, and Wade Lambert, a NYPD homicide detective taken hostage by the sheik."
Quamisi frowned. "You are not a man of God, Mr. Fury?"
Fury smiled. "I don't even worship the false ones."
"That makes you the universal infidel," said Quamisi, who then laughed. He smiled generously at Fury. "Truly a man of the world, with no eye on the next one. And he knows this world." A distant, speculative look came to the sheik's face. "A formidable man," he added. "I must thank you for accepting the invitation, Mr. Fury. You have been the sole bright note in what has been a tedious evening."
"I didn't come here to celebrate," said Fury.
"I imagine not. But it is difficult to fit you into the familiar categories. I confess I am at a loss."
"Stephen Crenshaw," Fury said. "Queen Una and the Hall of the Firmament."
"Yes," said Quamisi tentatively. "I understand from Mr. Dean that you do not wish to sell the coin in question for any figure. I am certain now that your words are not mere sales strategy. I would make you an extremely high offer for it, but I feel that it would simply be adding zeroes to zeroes."
"Mr. Dean's been dirtying his hands lately," remarked Fury.
Delight spread over Quamisi's face. "You know something of our attitudes, Mr. Fury! What a pleasant surprise!"
"The dirt on Mr. Dean's hands is not the usual kind, gotten through honest work."
"Truly cosmopolitan!" exclaimed Quamisi. "Tell me: What is your view on the state of the world today?"
Fury sighed. "I don't do soliloquies on the obvious."
"Poor Mr. Crenshaw," said Quamisi.
"Not so poor," replied Fury.
Quamisi shrugged and permitted himself a smirk. "If one man owns a handful of marbles, and another the quarry from which they came before being encased in glass, I will not quibble over the issues of scale."

Someone has to defend the "middle class".
….from a comment on American Digest
They'll keep track of how often you help them. The compliant ones, who respond to their pleas, will soon start getting bennies. And who the heck is paying for all this? Shoot, no one had the courage to sue them when they were laundering millions in illegal foreign money during both elections. The Courts and the constitutional lawyers mewled that "nobody has standing to sue". Now that they are beyond the reach of election law, the money just magically appears. None dare call it treason.
Like a pusher or a pimp, they'll next try to get you to graduate to the "hard stuff": direct action. Please, they'll say, we really need your help, show up at this time and place to help the Usurper. They'll loan you a t-shirt to wear (and ask you to buy it). The leaders will have special shirts, and campaign-style buttons, and perhaps cute little hats. And you'll go where you're told, and do what you're asked to. They'll bus you there and give you a stipend. You're One of Them now.
And if you keep answering their call, you go higher on the "One of Us" list, and qualify for more bennies. Free phones, debt forgiveness, extra ration cards. Chevy Volts at an unheard of discount.
Watch for it.
The turning point is when the purple T-shirts disappear, and it becomes button-down shirts with epaulets. Uniforms. Insignia. The hats aren't so cute anymore. You'll be part of the team now, the core of the Usurper's civilian national security force. And you'll go where you're told, and you'll do what you're told, because the bennies keep coming, and you're in for a penny, in for a pound.
Meanwhile, actual Iranian tankers are shutting off their automated reporting systems as they approach Libya, and leaving them off until they have departed Libyan ports. Peripheral evidence of this has been noted by journalists like Claudia Rosett (I wrote about it here), but the analysis reported by Reuters on 7 December provides the first specific confirmation that Iranian ships are shutting their Automated Information Systems (AIS) off to avoid being tracked into and out of Libyan ports.
The likelihood that arms have been shipped from Libya to Syria by this method is high enough to be considered a certainty – and, of course, the arms would have gone to Bashar al-Assad. He is Iran's protégé, and Iranian solicitude for Syrian shipping is devoted to bolstering his chances. The irony here is obvious, as there have also been plenty of reports of arms shipments from Libya to the Syrian rebels, some of which may have been facilitated by the US mission in Benghazi. The possibility that arms for Libya also got packed off to Assad himself cannot be discounted.
…from J.E. Dyer at Optimistic Conservative
Breaking news from the US – h/t Watts Up With That? – where a leaked draft of the IPCC's latest report AR5 admits what some of us have suspected for a very long time: that the case for man-made global warming is looking weaker by the day and that the sun plays a much more significant role in "climate change" than the scientific "consensus" has previously been prepared to concede.
Here's the killer admission:
Many empirical relationships have been reported between GCR or cosmogenic isotope archives and some aspects of the climate system (e.g., Bond et al., 2001; Dengel et al., 2009; Ram and Stolz, 1999). The forcing from changes in total solar irradiance alone does not seem to account for these observations, implying the existence of an amplifying mechanism such as the hypothesized GCR-cloud link. We focus here on observed relationships between GCR and aerosol and cloud properties.
That's a rather fancy way of saying… it was the sun. Now all that the environmentalists have to do is fulfill man's greatest dream by putting out the sun.

The best part- see those bright red gobs of goodness? Those are fresh cranberries (well, actually frozen ones left over from last winter's scone making), not dried. Without them, this bread would be nice, but nothing special. It's the unexpected tartness contasting with the sweet pumpkin and warm spices that take the bread from the realm of the ordinary, to the extraordinary. So as soon as those bags of cranberries start showing up in your market, scoop up several. You'll want to have extra on hand to make this bread over and over through the fall and winter. I promise, it's that good.
Oh, and just to be on the side of full disclosure, I didn't actually use pumpkin, but butternut squash leftover from a pound cake experiment. Made no difference whatsoever, in my opinion. And in place of the walnuts, I added toasted pumpkin seeds. It just seemed appropriate. I think you'd agree.
As usual, I implore you to go find the full recipe over at our hostesses' blog, This Bountiful Backyard. Rebecca didn't seem to enjoy the fresh cranberries as much as I did, but I won't hold that against her and neither should you. She did a beautiful job hosting and taking care of the fantastic recipe. Maybe some of the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers agreed with me. I'm about to go find out!

The Mathematics Education into the 21st Century Project
An international
educational initiative whose coordinators are Dr. Alan
Rogerson (Poland) and Professor Fayez Mina
(Egypt). Since its inception in 1986, the Mathematics Education into the
21st Century Project has received support and funding from
educational bodies and institutions throughout the world. In 1992 UNESCO published our Project Handbook "Moving
Into the
21st Century" as Volume 8 in the UNESCO
Studies In Mathematics Education.
The Mathematics
Education into the 21st Century Project is dedicated to the
improvement of mathematics education world-wide through the publication
dissemination of innovative ideas. Many prominent mathematics educators
supported and contributed to the project, including the late Hans
Andrejs Dunkels and Hilary Shuard, Bruce Meserve and Marilyn Suydam,
Osborne and Margaret Kasten, Mogens Niss, Tibor Nemetz, Brian Wilson,
Miwa, Henry Pollack, Werner Blum, Roberto Baldino, Waclaw Zawadowski,
and many
others throughout the world.
The Mathematics
Education into
the 21st Century Project· áFounded in 1986 as an
educational initiative to promote and disseminate innovative ideas in
mathematics education. áPublished in 1992 as a UNESCO
Handbook a
collection of papers which summarised the Present State of the Art of
Mathematics Education globally. áCollected many Futurist Trends in
Education which are being presented at a series of International
"Mathematics Education into the 21st Century: Societal
Issues and Approaches"in Cairo, Egypt
1999, "Mathematics for Living" in Amman, Jordan 2000, "New Ideas in
Education" in Palm Cove, Australia 2001, Palermo, Sicily 2002, Brno,
Republic 2003 , Ciechocinek, Poland 2004, Malaysia 2005, Charlotte, USA
Dresden, Germany 2009. áHas the active support of many of
the world's
leading mathematics educators. Plenary speakers at the above conferences
Prof. Wacek Zawadowski (Poland), Prof. Gila Hanna (Canada), Prof.
Abdalla (Egypt), Prof. Derrick Young (South Africa), Prof Omar Al-Shake
(Jordan), Prof. Bruno D'Amore (Italy), Gail Burrill (USA), Prof. Lionel
Mendoza (Singapore). áWorks internationally with The
Third World
Forum, The Hong Kong Institute of Education, The Australian Association
Mathematics Teachers, The Virtual School for the Gifted, SNM (Poland)
and many
other organisations and universities throughout the
world. áIn 2001 initiated a global
initiative - Super
Course or World Wide Mathematics to produce innovative materials to help
teaching and learning of mathematics throughout the world. What
are the aims
and objectives of this "Super Course"? áWe will use our extensive
contacts and experience to create a large database of innovative ideas,
materials and software that have already been found successful in
schools. This database or Data Bank will be called World Wide
(WWM). áInspired by this database, Super
writing teams will create new and better courses for students around the
These courses will be written by independent but cooperative national
teams of writers in different countries and in different
languages. áEach national team will be
able to
select from the database what is best for their country, in order
write new and creative materials to produce a state-of-the-art Super
Course in their own language. áEach national Super Course
might be a
series of text-books, resource materials, books/ideas for teachers, or
provide good models of text books in centralised systems of
education. áThe overall objective for each
Super Course
team in each country would be to make available for the first time
very best materials/ideas that have already been developed, often in
in all parts of the world. What
will be the role of New Technology? áWe believe that the role of new
will be crucial in future educational innovation. áUsing the familiar miracle of
email and
Internet, it will be possible to communicate much of our database of
ideas and materials quickly and easily throughout the
world. áOur four years experience with
the world's
first and only fully interactivevirtual school - the VSG -
will be
invaluable in incorporating in Super Course the very best and most
technological innovations as they develop. What
the Philosophy of our Project and of Super Course? áOur educational aim is to
students learn mathematics better and to enjoy and to find more
interesting and
relevant the mathematics they learn. áOur humanistic/political
aim is to
eliminate barriers and prejudices based on gender, race or social class
& to
empower our students to change for the better the world in which they
live. áOur pragmatic aim is to
produce a
course and/or ideas and materials for students and teachers that will be
successful in terms of school adoption because it is the best
available in each country. áWe are a very open project
and welcome
assistance and cooperation from everyone, whatever their experience or
expertise. áSuper Course needs creators,
teachers, testers, editors, reviewers and just plain critics and
observers -
SuperCourse will be a 5-10 year initiative! áWas held from June 28-July 2,
2001 in a
former country house converted to a Teachers Conference Centre
the tiny village of Zajaczkowo, near Poznan, Poland. áWas the largest and most
important international meeting in mathematics education ever
held in
Poland. áWas attended by more than 100
teachers and university lecturers, approximately 70 from all
parts of
Poland and 30 from 14 other countries, including
Australia, South
Africa, Canada, Egypt, Jordan, Greece, Cyprus, Italy, Germany and Great
Britain. áStarted to plan work for a 5-10
project - Super Course - to prepare and publish innovative
for mathematics teaching in Polish, English, German, Italian and
Arabic. What
is planned
for The Future? áThe next planning meeting for
Super Course
will be held at the project's international conference in Palm Cove,
Australia from August 19-24, 2001. áRegional meetings for Super Course
Groups are being planned for later in the year 2001 in Poland, Italy,
and the UK. áIt is hoped to hold an
international Super
Course Meeting in conjunction with the ICOTS Conference in South Africa
in July,
2002. áFor further information about all

Abstract: | The discovery of multiple pathways of carbon dioxide assimilation and dissimilation in higher plants has drastically changed the research and thinking in plant biology. The theme is developed that adaptations within photosynthesis are of fundamental importance in plants and that changes in this dominant metabolic process arc apt to result in strong and immediate selection advantages in the course of plant evolution. Data are presented on the variations in photosynthetic CO2 assimilation in the reductive pentose phosphate cycle, the C4-dicarboxylic acid cycle, and in Crassulacean acid metabolism. Photosynthetic studies with primitive plants such as P silo turn nudum indicate a metabolism similar to Cj-dicarboxylic acid may have arisen in this primitive plant. |

Green retail, flea markets, and the 'buy local' movement
Whether it's "locavores" eating local produce, architects and builders sourcing materials locally to meet environmental standards, or people who want to support the local economy, individuals and businesses alike seem to be moving towards buying local products of all kinds. How far the trend will go and what effect it will have long term on local businesses is difficult to predict, but the trend does appear to have real potential for small business owners of all kinds, including vendors at swap meets and flea markets.

Lowe's jumps on the LED bulb bandwagon
I've already mentioned Home Depot's adoption of the LED light bulb. Now comes word that Home Depot wanna-be Lowe's is doing the same. Cnet's Green Tech reports that the number two home improvement giant will be carrying a new Osram Sylvania 60-watt LED bulb. That's 60-watt equivalent, of course. The whole point is that the light only draws 12 watts of energy to produce the same illumination as a traditional incandescent bulb.

In a down economy, fewer are willing to spend on green furnishings
Furniture shoppers are less willing to spend on eco-friendly furniture, says Furniture Today, reporting on the Sustainable Furnishings Council's 2010 Green Home Furnishings Consumer Study. Evidently, big ticket spenders are harder to find these days, and only 4 percent of consumers say they are looking to buy green home furnishings. The survey suggests that educating shoppers about green home furnishings should be a priority, given the current low levels of consumer knowledge.
While in the past about 10 percent of respondents have said they would be willing to spend more on eco-friendly products in general, now that's dropped to just 5 percent.

National Weatherization Day
A community activist in Alabama helped weatherize area homes. |
The Sierra Club is happy with the government's efforts: "Across the country, federal recovery funds are helping people weatherize their homes for winter, creating jobs and reducing energy waste."
Meanwhile, Rhode Island and Arkansas just got more stimulus money for weatherization efforts. And in Alabama, one charitable group visited local homes on Weatherization Day and made a range of energy-saving fixes.

Hochstein at High Falls Concert Series Presents Marimba Band
Hochstein at High Falls Concert Series Presents Marimba Band
Thu, 06/13/2013 - 12:10pm - 12:50pm
Don't miss "one of the Rochester area's unique and notable treasures" perform during this free noontime concert.
Established in 1979 by Bill and Ruth Cahn and John Beck, RPO Marimba Band is comprised of members of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra's current Percussion Section. The band continues a half-century of tradition that was established in the 1950s by the Eastman School of Music's "Marimba Masters". Specializing in music written and arranged for melodic percussion instruments, the RPO Marimba Band primarily features Ragtime Xylophone pieces and novelty music from the early decades of the 20th century, many Latin and Jazz tunes, and performs on a Xylophone, two Marimbas, Vibraphone, Steel Drum, Drum Set, and various percussion instruments. The RPO Marimba Band performs Thursday, June 13 at 12:10 p.m. in High Falls.
The High Falls Business Association has once again teamed up with the Hochstein School of Music & Dance and WXXI to present Hochstein at High Falls, a noontime summer concert series.The series includes ten outdoor concerts Thursday afternoons at 12:15pm during June, July and August. Weather permitting, they will be held in the Granite Mills Park near the Pont de Rennes Bridge and will feature a diverse mix of musical artists and instructors. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own seating and lunch, or pick up a great lunch area restuarants (like La Luna, Caribbean Chateau, and Fina's Cafe). Each performance runs approximately 45 minutes.

Battling negative body image problems while growing up in the public eye, she says that she found that the more flesh she bared the more confident she became. "The more I got naked the more comfortable I felt. I just had to face my fear. You always find something wrong, you always find something you're uncomfortable with, and one thing turns into another and you get embarrassed and self-conscious about it," she said.
