Sword of Gideon is a 1986 television film about Mossad agents hunting down terrorists associated with the 1972 Munich massacre. It was first shown on the CTV network in Canada as a four-hour miniseries and later on the HBO television network. Directed by Michael Anderson and written by Chris Bryant, the film stars Steven Bauer and Michael York. The film is based on the book Vengeance by George Jonas, an account of the incident which has been criticized by some intelligence personnel as fictional, though because of its covert nature is difficult to prove or disprove. In some countries the book was titled Vengeance: Sword of Gideon, from which the movie title is drawn. The story was retold in the 2005 film Munich by Steven Spielberg.
Avner, an adept Israeli military officer is selected as the leader of a Mossad team of expert agents for a covert mission to avenge the Munich massacre and other recent terrorist acts. They are initially successful in their assassinations but as they progress it becomes harder and harder to find their targets and they themselves are targeted with varying success by their enemies. With Avner and Jean the driver being the only survivors the mission is called off. He wishes to retire from Mossad and rejoin the regular ranks of the IDF, but his case officer is reluctant to let his most valuable asset go.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I purchased a set of knives for $9.95 and had them sent to my son at Christmas time. The UPS driver put them in front of the wrong apartment door. When my son said he did not receive them, I called HSN and they sent a replacement. The following day, my son's neighbor came to him with the package, after noticeing the error. I called HSN and they advised to label the new kn ives with the "easy" return label. My son did this two days later when he received the new knives.
In the meantime, my account was charged twice for the knives. I called and explained the the second set was returned and was told I would receive a credit. Instead I received another bill, this time with an 11.00 late fee for the second set that was returned. So now I had a bill for 9.95 twice, shipping twice and 11.00 in late fees for a total of 38.00 for a 9.95 set of knives. I raised heck with HSN insisting that they put no further charges ever on my HSN card. I still purchsed some items,b ut only use my own debit card, with no interest.

I have just receved from Newegg a "refurbished EDTV Live Plus". Have no idea what was refurbished but it looks perfectly new with all accessories. It is hard to explain my problem so please be patient.
The WDTV Live Plus is connected to LAN. Checked the firmware, it is the latest, 1.06 something. All settings are at default.
I can browse the internet, wach YouTube, etc.
I can browse my network, see the drives and also xbmc upnp. I can select a movie or a tv show and could watch with no problem from the beginning to the end if I don't touch the remote.
I can do the same if I connect one of the two NTFS drives to the USB
Within first 10 minutes (more or less) if I do FF or REW or jump 10 min, or PAUSE, or STOP and PLAY again, it works.
BUT , if I do the the same after say, 30 minutes of play, it appears a message "this media can not be played" but in the background you can still hear the sound how it is still playing. (?!?!) At this point I have to power off the unit and start over.
If for instance I press STOP after more than 15 minutes, I will get back the list of movies or tv shows but in the background the sound from the media I was watching is still playing. (?!?!?) If I select the same movie or a different one while playing the background sound, the sound does not stops and I get waiting wheel and nothing else happens.
If I watch the entire movie or tv show and not touching the remote, at the end it does not bring me back to the list, I have just a black screen and I have to power OFF and back ON to select something else.
I have downgraded the firmware with 1.05 or something, almost a year old, tried it, the same problem.
I have upgraded on line, it has the same problem.
I have tried to read over network from a MAC, then from a Linux computer and then connected only to USB, from two different drives, one NTFS and then formated to DOS, the problem described above is always there. No matter from where I read the media. Most of the media is in avi and mkv, it can not be from the media encoding itself. I have tried with one "mov" and it was the same.
What should I do, what is your advice?
Have you tried resetting it: How to reset a WD TV or WD Elements Play
If you have the same issues, regardless the file type you are playing back, you may contact Newegg to have it replaced. You should also be able to request the replacement directly with WD.
Yes, forgot to mention it. I have reset it each time before changing the f/w.
So basically, are you saying that this is a defective unit?

Henson, who was a Lions tourist in 2005, playing in the second Test in Wellington, has been named in the Ospreys squad for the Magners League clash with Ulster at the Liberty Stadium.
"I'm delighted to name Gavin in our 22, he's had a long road back again from injury," Ospreys coach Sean Holley told BBC Sport Wales.
"It's just a matter now of a run of games to get him back up to speed."
The timing of Henson's comeback means he is likely to push for a place in Warren Gatland's Wales squad for this November's internationals - an important step on the road to Lions selection.
"He's coped with it (the injury) with a real level of maturity this time, he's come back right and it could be a big season for him," said Holley.
"The time is right to expose him to some senior rugby again. He's in great shape physically and he's been in a good place mentally."
Henson is joined in the Ospreys squad by fellow Lion Shane Williams who missed last Friday's defeat to Leinster in Dublin.
"It's always important to have those 'X-factor' guys in your team," added Holley.
"No disrespect to anyone in our squad but people like Gav and Shane, they do have a bit of magic and can create something out of nothing."
Ospreys squad to play Ulster, Saturday at 5.30pm, Liberty Stadium
Forwards: Duncan Jones, Paul James,Adam Jones, Huw Bennett, Richard Hibbard, Ian Gough, Andrew Lloyd, Alun-wyn Jones, Ian Evans, Jonathan Thomas, Tom Smith, Ryan Jones, Marty Holah

This car has been booked in for nearly 6 months now and is what I would class as a real sports car.
The had a full bareshell restoration just over a year ago now and the owners step son (another detailing hobbiest) spotted the terrible respray bodywork that the restorers had done, Simon then contacted myself as It was going to be a birthday present for his step-father and wanted it tip-top.
"My father bought the car in 1964 and gave it to me in 1976 so has been along standing friend.
I bit the bullet in 1999 and had the car restored by a firm in Sussex. I only collected the car in September of last year.
The paint work was taken back to bare metal and 2 new rear wings were fitted. she has been repainted in Italian Rosso Chiaro. I am not too happy with the paint as you can see some orange peal and some imperfections. they have used 2 pack"
It was a nice long treck up from Somerset on saturday for Graham which took just over 4.5hrs and this was how the car looked on arrival.
The car was firstly rinsed at low pressure and then foamed except the hood which was in great nick and clean, this was left to dwell for a few mins before being rinsed.
Then a 2bm wash using a ***** sponge and some dodo sour power, I left the wheels as these were being removed for polishing anyway plus I had to get a tyre changed and balanced for the owner.
The car was then rolled in the unit ready for claying, boy this sounded stunning Pitty it didn't look as good as it sounded.
Heres a few defects that I spotted out pretty quickly:
Paint runs:
Overspray all on the front wing:
Paint sinkage:
Sanding marks, basically all over the car:doublesho
Now time for clay, started off with the Autobrite gentle grey clay, this was picking up lots of tar and contaminats but not really touching the severe overspray so stepped up to the aggresive clay, this left some bad marring but wasn't worried as it was all being corrected anyway.
Some of the swirls and just a FEW......
The car was then taped up ready for machining, I knew the 2 pack was going to be pretty tough and with all the sanding marks I opted straight away for 3m fc+/untrafina se on a megs polishing pad, most panels were 4-5 hits to achieve a near perfect finish which is what I was after.
Corrected shots:
I spent over 25hrs just machining the paintwork upto a good standard to remove the majority of the sanding marks and defects, I would like to see the car again for some more time next year and get up near concourse condition as it frequently visits shows and is at a private gathering tomorrow down in the west country, and back up to Goodwood Revival in Sept.
Once all the correcting work was finished the car was then refined using untrafina on a megs finishing pad, now it was time to gve the car a IPA wipedown to removes the oils ready for the Swissvax Best Of Show to be applied by hand.
This was left to cure while I polished the bumpers and chrome bits such as grill headlight surrounds etc using britemax metal polish/sealant, the wax was then buffed after over 2 hrs curing.
And now save the best job till last..... the wheels removed 1 by 1 and cleaned using some smart wheels and a swissvax style brush and then polished using the britemax again, each coner took 2.5 hrs to fully polish bringing them from this:
To this:
And after 10hrs of cleaning the wheels my fingers were numb and felt like falling off and with blisters.......
I then gave the cam covers and carb covers a polish but didn't get any pics:wall:
The exhausts were polished and the tyres dressed with megs endurance, the hood was hoovered and treated to 303 fabric guard and polsihed the rear screen with megs plasicx to remove some scratches and after 40hrs heres the final results:
And finally before:
Thanks for looking and all C & C welcome.

Red, White, and Blackie...
I'll be buying a new Core 2 Quad computer. I'll have a 2-computer setup in my room, and since my current mod project, aptly named "Violet Reaction"(I wont be posting a link, for fear of being blacklisted from this site ), will cause me to do a makeover on my room(aside from the casing), I decided to go all the way and mod the old Core 2 Duo computer that I'm currently using.
I've now named this certain project "Red, White, and Blackie", based on the age old fact that most Filipinos in the provinces often name their dogs "Blackie"(regardless if its even the dog's actual color), I decided to go with that tradition. Besides, I went for a Black, Red, and White color theme.
My funding is running a bit low thanks to my "Violet" project(and with an intense desire to build something), "Blackie" is gonna be a scratch build. And I went for one of the cheapest materials that a modder could think to use... PAPER PRODUCTS.
No, it wont be made of paper, just somewhat like it. I'm constructing this with 3% Bainbridge Cold Press Illustration boards, 20% BestBuy(a local brand) illustration boards, 12% transparent acrylic panels, 10 percent aluminum, 5% assorted plastic, and 50% FOAM BOARDS. Probably unwise right? But then, I plan to let everyone know that it's worth it.
So wish me luck, or a miracle. Suggestions are welcome.
This is my current control center. Yes, I know... it aint much, and it's real messy, but that will soon change. That red, green, and yellow thing that's glowing on top of the monitor is an old amplifier. Decided to use it since it was just gathering dust here at home, because of this amp, it was possible to use.......
.... the Sony speakers that used to be hooked up to my Dad's stereo component. He gave us the stereo Hi-Fi component, but nobody here uses it. So I decided to use the speakers on my pc instead. Now I got myself a 5.1 setup. hehehe. That's my old Core 2 Duo right next to the sub.
Unfortunately, I dont have any 3d plans of my designs. Just following what's in my head.
Acrylic, courtesy of a friend...
Preparing the fans, and trying to assess how many I'll be using for this build. Researched on foam board's material-reaction in relation to heat. And like a certain dumb Filipino celebrity once said... "you can never have too many fans."
9mm thick acrylic, will serve as the flooring of the case.
Aluminum L-beams... will provide support.
I dismantled my computer table, and I'll be building it into a much more ergonomic workplace.
This is what my room looks like now, after devastating my computer table. Everything will be nice and dandy in a few weeks. And my control center will be better.
Made some test cuts for the design that I'll be going for. These in particular will be used for the HDD enclosure.
Primered the mouse. This used to be white with a gray bottom. Doesnt match the color scheme. Gonna paint this black and red.
Testing, to see how it looks.
Measuring... designating where the screws will be.
This is the bottom part of the mouse done.
I changed the LED bulb from ordinary red, to superbright red. Though I'm not sure if the resistors on the PCB would even let this bulb shine to it's fullest, but what the heck, I changed it anyway.
First time I painted something that came out nice...

Glued the fans together... these will serve as the lower level front intake fans. And yes, I do plan to take off those warranty stickers. I hate that they have to put it on the fan blades.
As I promised, used foam boards to make the fan bracket... dual purpose actually. Will be able to hide the fan wires, and at the same time, the foam will suppress any vibration or noise the fans will make.
I'll have a cover on the top to hide the wires... to make things a bit neat.
Painted the knobs on the amplifier to match the color theme. "DIGIRAL" hahaha, this amp must've come from Japan. Thinking of covering that front plate. I hate the flashing red, green, and yellow light on it too, so I think I'll be soldering new LEDs on it.
Making the HDD enclosure...
Cutting with my X-acto knife. I feel like Hannibal Lecter...
I hate it when this happens... it would be nice to have a car when I transport stuff from the store to my house. Unfortunately, I dont.
But then, a damaged foam board doesnt really stop me... cutting with my trusty utility knife.
Tired of working on the HDD enclosure, but I aint gonna stop. I decided to work on something else... and here you see a glimpse of the design I'm going for.

Yup, like I said... my room's gonna be modded too.
Decided to work on the intake fans. Painted this one. Weird, thanks to the lighting, it doesnt look white.
The inner fan bracket labels are ugly as hell. I decided to do something about it...
Gonna use this to make little circles...
Off they go. It just hit me, what if I took Band-aids the same way?
After placing the fans... the O-rings are next. These buggers can be a bit tricky.
Those are the circles I was talking about. Shame that some of them arent even perfect circles.
Playing "3 Libras" in the background.
4-intake-fan bracket and the fans themselves are now done.
Yup, they work.

I cut up a plastic folder... the kind you can purchase from your local bookstore.
and glued it to my foamboard cutout...
HDD enclosure not yet done...
Gonna take the label off, but of course, I still plan to let everyone know that I've got a Seagate HDD in my system. I'll be polishing this too.
Glimpse of things to come...
Another glimpse...
Still deciding if I should use this...
Had some decals made from Decal Republic...
Came out really nice....
After that, went to work on my LG optical drive...
Warranty? What warranty?
The operation begins... I think you all know what I plan to do.

Aluminum L-support beams with fully cured paint.
And this is what the optical drive looks after a rotary tool cut, and a paint job... always wanted to see the DVD disc go round and round and round...
Hell yeah!

Nice work on the fans and I like the DVD drive
Is that a little bit of paint bleed on the red/white fan? Maybe some better masking tape or a bit of pin striping to cover it up :thumbsup:

The paint didnt bleed on the fan, but there was little hair-like paint particles when I pulled off the masking tape. Nothing a pair of tweezers couldnt handle. But then, like I mentioned, I'm still deciding if I would use it. Since it would deviate from the design of the rest of the fans.

Thanks so much everyone. Wasnt able to do much today, school work got in the way.
I knew, that with my plan of having 9 fans running in Blackie... leaving the optical drive exposed would be very unwise. So I made the necessary mod since this would be the easiest to do(I still need to sleep, early class tomorrow).
I cut up the remaining textured plastic folder for this, and painted illustration board, cut into strips for the border of the plastic.
I made it a point that it would still have the "see-through" effect that I wanted.
Here we can see the lens(sorry for the quality of the shot).
From this angle, it looks like a flatbed scanner.

Taylor Swift vs. Rita Ora: Whose Blonde Bob Do You Like Best? – Readers Poll
Short hair, don't care! Our favorite celebs have been chopping off their locks left and right recently, and we are loving the trend. Taylor Swift and Rita Ora are the newest pop stars to make the cut, and each brings her own unique style to her blonde bob. Whose cut do you like better?
Taylor's cut is longer, just barely reaching her shoulders. Instead of the long, blunt bangs we associate with the 'Red' era, her fringe is now more sideswept, but her warm, honey blonde hue that we all know and love has stayed the same. The short cut makes Taylor's hair appear thick, voluminous and healthy, and it must feel like a huge weight off her shoulders — literally.
Rita Ora just debuted her new, short style, preferring to chop off her long, flowing locks into an edgier, asymmetrical cut that looks incredible on her. The choppy bob appears to have been done with a razor, which makes her hair look more piecey and texturized. We think that the hot new cut perfectly matches the singer's bold personality.
Whose blonde bob do you like best? Vote in the poll below!

We'll cut bullying, defence chief vows
Defence Correspondent
Page Tools
ABUSIVE behaviour and bullying in the military will be stamped on, and out, the chief of the defence forces Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston has vowed.
Rejecting criticism of the Federal Government's decision to allow the armed force to continue to investigate and prosecute breaches by its members, albeit under a new military court, Air Chief Marshal Houston told The Age last night there should be no doubt he was committed to reforming the system.
"We're going to do this in a very driven way," he said. "It's imperative that we get on with it, that we implement it with vigour and with speed.
"And I think that with these reforms we'll have a system that enables us to continue to conduct operations hopefully with the same success we've had in the past.
"We've got the resources to get on with it, it's very clear where the Government wants us to go and we'll go and do our part.
"I will not tolerate any form of abusive behaviour and where we find instances of bullying and hopefully we won't find any we'll stamp it out."
In June, after an inquiry lasting 20 months, a damning Senate report concluded the military had failed to properly investigate cases of violence, abuse and racism over decades.
On Wednesday Defence Minister Robert Hill announced the establishment of the new military court and special unit to investigate crimes in the defence force.
He said the defence force would get 35 new staff and $3.5 million a year to make the new system work.
But the Government has angered families of victims by rejecting the Senate committee's call for civilian police and courts to handle investigation and prosecution of crime within the defence force.
Charles Williams' 20-year-old son, Private Jeremy Williams, hanged himself at Singleton, NSW, in February 2003 after being humiliated by soldiers about being injured and transferred to a rehabilitation platoon.
Yesterday Mr Williams said the Government had missed an opportunity to fix the problems that led to his son's death.
"But his own senators have told him how shambolic, dysfunctional and broken the system is and here we are now seeing a minister turning his back on the recommendations of a senate inquiry," Mr Williams told ABC radio.
"How many more ruined lives are we going to see? How many more despairing young Australians are we going to see before the system is fixed?"
Air Chief Marshal Houston said he and senior officers would make sure the system was fixed.
But Air Chief Marshal Houston said an effective military justice system was fundamental to the defence force's operational performance.
"At the end of the day we are a disciplined force and commanders out there doing all these things use discipline to achieve the objectives that they've been set."
Defence forces were involved in very challenging circumstances in Afghanistan and Iraq, he said.
"When we are in those sorts of circumstances it is absolutely imperative that we have a system of military justice which enables us to conduct those operations by applying, if necessary, lethal force by a disciplined force "

Peoria County Government adopted a Strategic Plan in 2001 and identified as one of its top five goals a strong desire to partner with our citizens. Therefore, we have recently developed new programs to help us build and strengthen partnerships with you; programs that either educate the community on county government or include the community in county government.
As a public service agency, Peoria County offers a variety of free programs to increase citizen engagement in local government. Our Civic Leadership Program offers citizens an opportunity to spend time with Elected Officials and department heads, learning about our plans for the future, the elections process, our emergency preparedness efforts, and much more. Also, an Elected Official or department head participating on our Speakers Bureau will be happy to speak to local groups about any topic related to county government. Or, citizens interested in more active partnerships can volunteer for a department within the organization or, if a student, can become an intern for Peoria County.
These current programs are described in more detail by selecting the appropriate link to your left. Soon, Peoria County will be adding a County Companion program to allow local youth to shadow an Elected Official or department head as a companion for a day. Watch for that and more programs to be added to this website in the near future.

@leslerLocale: right here, right now
this spring marks my 10 yr. AT anniversary. i've never been to traildaze (instead lived it vicariously through others) and yet a part of me still yearns to experience it. inwardly i long for an excursion of sorts, but time and funds are both precious, and i want my rimshot. i'm down with a good time, but i'm far from sold on the idea of travelling 15 hours to simply party and return dissatisfied, or unsatisfied. for those of you that have most recently been to tdaze, perhaps can you offer me some objective insight as to what to anticipate? would i be better off simply saving my loot for a long trail fastpack or a nfct excursion? thanks. ltJan 27, 2012 at 9:24 am #1830466

I have been once during my thru in 2010, It was a great time, basically a three day party. I have lots of memories from it but at the end of three days I was ready to get out of there. While it is a big giant party there are other things to do/ or could happen.
You could met up and reconnect with someone you hiked with ten years ago, a priceless thing if you ask me.
The parade is a blast, I mean really how often do you get to be in a parade! We had a water ballon fight going on at the same time.
Also I recommend going on the creeper trail bike ride, You basically don't have to pedal and get to coast down for an hour or so.
Also there was a big drum circle and fire ring dance the last night, while alot of people that par take in partying par take in the dancing, I was dead sober the last night and still had a blast watching others and being a part of it.
If you are into backpacking gear, you get to meet cottage manufactures in person and check out there gear, talk to them ask them questions.
At the same time a Long trail thru hike could be a great time, you could make new friends doing that. Either way I think it is a win win.
As an aside I was with my GF's brother hiking Katahdin this summer, he was celebrating his 20th Anniversary of Hiking the AT. Half way up the mountain we ran into a guy he had hiked with for a few weeks on his thru hike 20 years ago, he was hiking Katahdin as well celebrating his 20th anniversary. I know it was priceless for the both of them. You just never know were you will be, maybe some one you know will be hiking the long trail or going to trail days or both or neither!

Two explosions ripped through a park in Nairobi during a packed political rally last night, killing five people and injuring 75. The rally was held in protest over a draft constitution on which the country is to vote in August.
The president and prime minister support it, but several political leaders do not. The prime minister, Raila Odinga, said officials don't know the cause of the blasts.
Dr Charles Kabetu of Kenya's national hospital said five people had died. "I want to say clearly that the government will do everything possible to get to the root of this incident. We must condemn this," Odinga said. "Kenyans can decide peacefully what they want" concerning the constitution.
The campaign against the draft constitution opposes a clause that would allow abortion to save a mother's life. Opponents also object to a clause that would recognise informal courts used by some Muslims.

The air is cool, but soft, with brilliant morning sunlight pouring in through the massive antique windows, reflecting gently off the ornately carved white walls and full-length mirrors. As the Bogner team entered the training studio of the Bavarian State Ballet Junior Company, an aura of calm and absolute focus was immediately apparent.
As always, the designers of this year's Bogner sportswear emphasize a focus on lightness and flexibility in each and every piece: every jacket should be warm while never restricting the athlete's movement. In addition, the colors and patterns of each jacket should be visually interesting while standing still and in motion. When it came to photographing this year's collection, we thought, "who better to demonstrate these aspects of our jackets than ballet dancers?"
For the photo-shoot, we had the honor of working with and talking to six members of the Junior Company of the Bavarian State Ballet, who are all as diverse as they are talented. Hailing from six different countries, each of the six dancers has a different background, and a different perspective on the world of ballet. Each has a different dream role, and there was of course debate about the best post-workout, cheat-day food.
There were, however, things that all or most of the dancers seemed to agree on. Massage is definitely the preferred method of physical recovery, and they almost unanimously agreed that the one thing about ballet they could do without would be the physical pain and injuries.
"light, sporty, elegant."

The nightclub experience shed major clarity on why the Egyptian men have the opinion that they do of any non-Arab women. First of all, Hurghada is filled with women from the Eastern Block: Russian, Ukranian, Czech and Polish women and every one of them in the club acted like prostitutes so naturally the men see it as an open invitation
The next morning I was scheduled to join the hotel dive company on a full day boat trip with snorkeling and lunch for a mere $25. That was fantastic. The water is exactly as you would imagine, and other than the octopus and bottom feeders I believe I saw just as much variety of fish and coral as the divers. The fascinating thing was watching the religious Muslim woman in her full arm, full leg, dress on top and head covering, snorkeling beside me. All in all I left Hurghada completely satiated. Thank you guys, who shall remain unnamed.

The benefits of a Masters extend beyond improving your earning potential. They can provide you with personal and professional skills to accelerate your development. They are also an opportunity to differentiate yourself from your peers, many of whom will have similar A-level and undergraduate qualifications.
Earning a Master requires two years of education after earning a Bachelor. This advanced degree may help students to achieve their educational and professional goals, as the rigors of a Master's program help train students in the skills and knowledge they need to land the career of their dreams.

You aspire to work in an international company based in your country. The EFA programme is designed to meet both these needs.The EDA programme recruits students at MSc level who are highly motivated by a career in industry, who are hungry for concrete experience of the work world and who are open to learning new languages and cultures. This programme is constructed on sandwich courses whereby the students alternate their time between ESA and internships in the sponsoring company. This provides invaluable professional experience of the company while adapting to both the French way of life and the company's corporate culture. Successful completion of the two-year programme qualifies the student for a "diplôme d'ingénieur", the most prestigious degree in France. The graduate is immediately operational and ready to take on a position of responsibility on site in his/her home country.(Examples of such positions are: the development of an industrial activity, the establishment of a commercial agency in their zone, the management of a production unit or the setting-up of a local supply chain).Key to the success of the EFA programme is that it is built on the three-way relationship...

I'm thinking of reducing my implant size but I am not sure. With a bra on my breasts look huge and I don't like it. When I wear outfits that don't require a bra, I am content with the size because they look like a large C cup. I wear a size 34D/DD right now! I am 5'7 and weigh 125lbs. A C cup is what I orignally wanted any way. Any advice would be appreciated.

Implants Too Big in Clothes
Unfortunately, no surgery is perfect and the fact that you like your breasts in one scenario and not the other is a dilemma you will likely not solve. You will then trade your situation for liking your breast in a bra and not out of one. Then you will have to adjust to the new smaller breasts as there is nothing you can do to make them look bigger naked. Be honest with yourself and pick the more desirable situation and proceed. Remember that "down-sizing" your implants can necessitate some sort of a lift if there is some degree of excess skin or skin stretch.
Best of luck
Vincent Marin, MD, FACS

Reducing implant size
The choice of implant size is important pre-operatively but we can really never predict a post-op cup or bra size. Decreasing implant size to a point where there is a true difference in breast size may involve to need to tighten your breast tissues. The best way to assess what would help you achieve your goal would be to either return to your plastic surgeon if possible or seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon.
I hope this helps.

Breast Implant Size
Much of the final "look" achieved after breast augmentation surgery depends on several factors:
1. The initial shape, size (volume of breast tissue), symmetry of the patient's breasts. In general, the better the preoperative breast appearance the more likely the breast augmentation "look" will be optimal.
2. The experience/skill level of the surgeon is important in determining the final outcome. For example, the accurate and gentle dissection of the breast implant pockets are critical in producing long-term well-placed breast implants. I personally think that these 2 factors are more important than any others, including type (saline or silicone) or model (low/moderate/high profile) of implant.
3. The type of implant used may determine the final outcome, especially if the patient does not have significant covering breast or adipose tissue. For example, some surgeons feel that silicone implants have a more natural look and feel than saline implants because silicone gel has a texture that is similar to breast tissue. Each patient differs in the amount of breast tissue that they have. If a patient has enough breast tissue to cover the implant, the final result will be similar when comparing saline implants versus silicone gel implants. If a patient has very low body fat and/or very little breast tissue, the silicone gel implants may provide a more "natural" result.
On the other hand, saline implants have some advantages over silicone implants. Silicone implant ruptures are harder to detect. When saline implants rupture, they deflate and the results are seen almost immediately. When silicone implants rupture, the breast often looks and feels the same because the silicone gel may leak into surrounding areas of the breast without a visible difference. Patients may need an MRI to diagnose a silicone gel rupture. Saline implants are also less expensive than the silicone gel implants.
Other differences involve how the breast implants are filled. Saline implants are filled after they're implanted, so saline implants require a smaller incision than prefilled silicone breast implants.
On May 10, 2000, the FDA granted approval of saline-filled breast implants manufactured by Mentor Corporation and McGhan Medical. To date, all other manufacturers' saline-filled breast implants are considered investigational.
As of 2006, the FDA has approved the use of silicone gel implants manufactured by the Mentor Corporation and Allergan (formerly McGhan) for breast augmentation surgery for patients over the age of 22.
4. The size and model of breast implant used may make a significant difference in the final outcome. Therefore, it is very important to communicate your size goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of "goal" pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as "natural" or "C cup" or "fake looking" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful.
Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate.
I use intraoperative sizers and place the patient in the upright position to evaluate breast size. Use of these sizers also allow me to select the press implant profile (low, moderate, moderate plus, high-profile) that would most likely achieve the patient's goals. The patient's goal pictures are hanging on the wall, and allow for direct comparison.
I have found that this system is very helpful in improving the chances of achieving the patient's goals as consistently as possible.
By the way, the most common regret after this operation, is "I wish I was bigger".
I hope this helps.

Breast size a matter of perception?
It is not possible for your breasts to be one size with a bra on, and be smaller once you remove your bra. This particular problem seems to be one of self-perception. You need to decide which is more important to you; liking your breasts when they are in a bra, or likely them when they are out. If you are wearing a push-up type bra, it will certainly give the appearance that you have more upper pole fullness. You should consider wearing a less supprotive bra that will not change your breast aesthetic drastically.

If anyone needed to post a frontal photo it is you. Very hard to advise without seeing the issue in and out of a bra.
Implants appear larger in bra
Judging from the size of your implants, your ht and wt, I can guess that you were quite small chested before your surgery. I have found that it takes some women a lot longer than others to get used to their new larger breasts. When a patient presents with this dilemma, my advice is to wait a few months before they make a decision to go smaller. Also, have you tried using a sheer bra instead of a lightly padded one? This simple tip, might solve your problem. Overall, I usually don't recommend a second surgery to go 1 cup smaller. Wait, and get used to your new look! Save your money. Best wishes, Dr H

Honeywell Wins $6 Billion of Orders for Business Jet EngineThomas Black
Honeywell International Inc. has won about $6 billion of orders from undisclosed planemakers to supply the same engine that powers the Gulfstream G280 and Challenger 300 business aircraft.
The orders for Honeywell's HTF7000 engine were announced in a slide presentation posted on the company's website today. Honeywell declined to provide details of the orders or disclose customers, said Steve Brecken, a Honeywell spokesman. Engine orders are often accompanied by lucrative service contracts that lock in long-term revenue.
The business jet market has slumped as the global economy slows and companies crimp spending. Deliveries of private jets fell to 649 last year from 678 in 2011, according to the presentation. Commercial jet deliveries rose to 1,572 last year from 1,372 in 2011, the Morris Township, New Jersey-based company said.
The HTF7000 engine orders are part of $19 billion of longterm contracts that Honeywell's business aviation group has garnered over the last three years, according to the presentation. Honeywell's commercial jet unit has won another $28 billion of work during the period, including controllers for Boeing Co.'s new narrow-body 737 Max and the C919 single-aisle plane that's being built by Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China Ltd.
The HTF7000 engine powers Bombardier Inc.'s Challenger 300, which seats up to 10 passengers and has a range of 3,065 nautical miles (5,676 kilometers) and General Dynamics Corp.'s Gulfstream G280, which began delivery in November and has maximum range of 3,600 nautical miles carrying four passengers.

I have an Apple device for my music (not sure what the darn thing is called, little square thing you put music on :) ) I have it plugged into the USB port. Always upon starting the car the voice says, "index full, some songs may not be available". I've tried reloading songs on Apple device, (only have about 30 on it) with no change. Any suggestions. I'm thinking I'll just get a thumb drive.
Moved to Car Audio, SYNC, MyFord Touch & Electronics.
I've used a 8Gb thumb drive with hundreds of songs and didn't have a problem. As long as the songs are named properly sync can find them easily with voice commands.
I don't know why your device acts that way.
If it's an iPod Shuffle, it's not compatible with SYNC. Here's a link to our device compatibility chart in case you'd like to get a different iPod:
If you decide to get a USB flash drive, make sure it is not password-protected. :)
I just bought a thumb drive, downloaded 32 songs, and plugged it into Focus. Now if I ask for USB, it says there is no media available, no songs. USB is not password protected. I brought it back in the house plugged into computer and played songs, so I know the thumb drive works. Any suggestions?
Nope, didn't know that. I'll check it. Thanks
OK, I reformatted in FAT32 and reloaded music. With key on car not running I plugged the thumb drive into USB port and I get the same message as in my first post above. If I try to access the USB port the answer I get is there is no media.
I'm puzzled because the iPod shuffle worked just got the annoying message above. Now the thumb drive which is supposed to be compatible won't work?
I'll check that, I got the shuffle as a gift, was just told to go to iTunes and download. Forgive me, I'm retired (which means we used punch cards in my first computer class in college) and this computer stuff can be a real challenge at times. Love my Focus though!

Researchers have discovered a fossilized face and jaw from a previously unknown hominoid primate genus in Spain dating to the Middle Miocene era, roughly 12 million years ago. Nicknamed "Lluc," the male bears a strikingly "modern" facial appearance with a flat face, rather than a protruding one. The finding sheds important new light on the evolutionary development of hominids, including orangutans, chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas and humans.
In a study appearing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Salvador Moyà-Solà, director of the Institut Català de Paleontologia (ICP) at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, and colleagues present evidence for the new genus and species, dubbed Anoiapithecus brevirostris. The scientific name is derived from the region where the fossil was found (l'Anoia) and also from its "modern" facial morphology, characterized by a very short face.
The research team at the ICP also includes collaborator David M. Alba, predoctoral researcher Sergio Almécija, postdoctoral researcher Isaac Casanovas, researcher Meike Köhler, postdoctoral researcher Soledad De Esteban, collaborator Josep M. Robles, curator Jordi Galindo, and predoctoral researcher Josep Fortuny.
Their findings are based on a partial cranium that preserves most of the face and the associated mandible. The cranium was unearthed in 2004 in the fossil-rich area of Abocador de Can Mata (els Hostalets de Pierola, l'Anoia, Barcelona), where remains of other fossilized hominid species have been found. Preparing the fossil for study was a complicated process, due to the fragility of the remains. But once the material was available for analysis, the results were surprising: The specimen (IPS43000) combined a set of features that, until now, had never been found in the fossil record.
Anoiapithecus displays a very modern facial morphology, with a muzzle prognathism (i.e., protrusion of the jaw) so reduced that, within the family Hominidae, scientists can only find comparable values within the genus Homo, whereas the remaining great apes are notoriously more prognathic (i.e., having jaws that project forward markedly). The extraordinary resemblance does not indicate that Anoiapithecus has any relationship with Homo, the researchers note. However, the similarity might be a case of evolutionary convergence, where two species evolving separately share common features.
Lluc's discovery may also hold an important clue to the geographical origin of the hominid family. Some scientists have suspected that a group of primitive hominoids known as kenyapithecines (recorded from the Middle Miocene of Africa and Eurasia) might have been the ancestral group that all hominids came from. The detailed morphological study of the cranial remains of Lluc showed that, together with the modern anatomical features of hominids (e.g., nasal aperture wide at the base, high zygomatic rood, deep palate), it displays a set of primitive features, such as thick dental enamel, teeth with globulous cusps, very robust mandible and very procumbent premaxilla. These features characterize a group of primitive hominoids from the African Middle Miocene, known as afropithecids.
Interestingly, in addition to having a mixture of hominid and primitive afropithecid features, Lluc displays other characteristics, such as a very anterior position of the zygomatic, a very strong mandibular torus and, especially, a very reduced maxillary sinus. These are features shared with kenyapithecines believed to have dispersed outside the African continent and colonized the Mediterranean region, by about 15 million years ago.
In other words, the researchers speculate, hominids might have originally radiated in Eurasia from kenyapithecine ancestors of African origin. Later on, the ancestors of African great apes and humans would have dispersed again into Africa -- the so-called "into Africa" theory, which remains controversial. However, the authors do not completely rule out the possibility that pongines (orangutans and related forms) and hominines (African apes and humans) separately evolved in Eurasia and Africa, respectively, from different kenyapithecine ancestors.
The project at els Hostalets de Pierola is continuing and, the researchers anticipate, more fossil remains will be found in the future that will provide key information to test their hypotheses.

Very normal; they're coming out. It may not hurt to give another dose (ask your vet when, or have them do it) to make sure that your pet is worm-free. There are some worms, like hookworms, that people can get; so, it is a good idea, especially if you have kids, to make sure that all the wormies disappear!

When looking for the best youth baseball bats 2016 the question should always come to mind of what am I looking for in my kid's baseball bat?
You'd be surprised to hear how many parents are actually clueless when it comes to such a simple question…
Fret not, this guide is supposed to help you find the best bat for your kid.
Whether it is the 2016 CF8 Youth Baseball Bat or the Louisville Slugger Prime 916 Youth there are certain characteristics that define each bat and each company as well.
For instance, DeMarini's specialty is producing immense power bats with their Paradox +Plus and double wall construction barrels.
On the other hand, Louisville Slugger is renowned for being one of the most strongest alloy bats in the industry.
Each one of these elements make up the company's brand and it's best to stick to what they do best.
Easton has been stirring up the industry with their TORQ handle which is still cause for much discussion nowadays.
Would a TORQ handle be beneficial to your kid? Perhaps.
Or maybe your kid would be better suited with an end-loaded Voodoo bat, or perhaps the swift swinging Marucci Cat 6.
It all depends on the play style and the type of hitter your kid is.
End loaded bats should be used by heavier hitters as to provide them with more momentum at contact and launch the ball to farther distances.
Hybrid bats such as the Voodoo, the Select, or the Speed should be used by contact hitters not looking for overpowering power at the plate, but also like the benefit of faster bat speed and control through the zone.
Usually #2, #3, #6, #7, #8 hitters should be using these hybrids.
Whereas #4 and #5 should be using the power series.
#1 and #9 should stick to the alloy construction one-piece bats for maximum bat speed and control at the plate.
With that said, these are just some suggestions and you may do with them as you like.
The point I'm trying to make is to find your kid's playing style and find a bat that matches him best on that level. It'd be foolish to buy a kid of a relatively slim frame a heavier bat and expect him to drop some bombs.
Unless you're Dustin Pedroia.
But that dude's insane.
If I had to pick 3, I'd say your kid should be prioritizing these things for maximum hitting potential:
- Bat Speed
- Swing Weight
- Weight Transfer
- Solid Hitting Position at Contact
The bat speed and swing weight being one of the most critical factors believe it or not.
Depending on the swing weight index, a lighter bat can actually feel heavier than a regular bat if it has a 0.5 oz end-load. Conversely, a heavier bat may also feel lighter if it has a middle balance point.
Don't make the same mistake I did, I used to use an end-loaded bat in high school and it felt weird and my performance suffered as a result.
I practiced with a low M.O.I bat and had the most success with these types of bats. However, whenever I'd switch the stick I was swinging my performance plummeted.
So your bat choice is as imperative to your success as how often you practice. Proceed with care.

Body found in Crow Wing County lake
BRAINERD, Minn. (AP) - A dive team from the Crow Wing County sheriff's office has recovered the body of a man from Lower Whitefish Lake.
The office announced the body of the man was recovered in about 90 feet of water at midmorning Sunday. The body was taken to the Ramsey County medical examiner's office. Foul play is not suspected.
Deputies responded Saturday evening to a report that a 26-year-old man from St. Louis Park had jumped into the water off a pontoon boat, but did not resurface.
The name of the man was not immediately released.
