Yeasayer, Album Review, Fragrant World, Released Today, August 21
By Codi Glancy
Today is my birthday and there's no better gift than new music! On this glorious day, Yeasayer releases their third studio album, "Fragrant World;" the much anticipated follow up to 2010's highly successful "Odd Blood." These psychedelic – pop musicians have been a predominant staple in the current indie circulation since 2006 and this new album only raises the stakes. Even though "Fragrant World" may not be as much as an unexpected prize as "Odd Blood" was, it shows a new level of maturing and consistency in the band's already remarkable discography.
Album opener, "Fingers Never Bleed," instantly draws listeners in within the first thirty seconds with its groovy, kind of middle-eastern sounding music. As it bleeds into album single "Longevity," a sense of blissful minimalism emerges from each electronic beat and disguised guitars. "Longevity" may not be as "poppy" of a hit as the previous "O.N.E.," it justifies Yeasayer's newly refined and distinct sound.
The amount of studio manipulation the band creates is amazing, but in the track "Henrietta," the three-piece completely simplifies their sound to create my favorite song on the record. "Henrietta" contains a super funky and thick bass rhythm, while having a sort of Washed Out reminding aspect to the song. Paired with a closing repetition of "Oh, Henrietta, we can make love forever" that gradually builds up, "Henrietta" sounds like a short story being told.
"Fragrant World's" middle ground is home to the ditty "Devil and the Deed." Other than providing a transition to the latter half of the album, it's also an awesome solo dance party song. It's filled with claps and electro-cuts that make me refrain from intellectually listening and just get jiggy with it. Further songs, such as "No Bones" and "Damaged Goods," are reminiscent of early 80s Prince songs with new hip twists that are relevant for today's hits and dance parties. Album ending "Glass of the Microscope" is close silver for my choice in favorite track. Unlike most of the other tracks "Glass…" begins mellow, a steadily becomes more up beat, but is still easily the "slowest" songs on the album. It closes the album out brilliantly by subtly fading away instead of an abrupt "goodbye".
This will probably sound bad, and I don't at all mean it negatively, but my favorite aspect of Yeasayer's music is honestly what it reminds me of. They take the somewhat strange musical direction of bands like Animal Collective and Cut Copy and combine it with the beautiful harmonies and lyrics that rival those of the Dirty Projectors and Grizzly Bear. Basically, they're a unique melting pot of everything and encapsulate all of the best characteristics of today's college radio plays. If you're a fan, make sure to check them out at the Tabernacle on September, 8th with Daedelus!

Despite pleas from neighbors in the area against abandonment... the Jamestown City Council has agreed to allow the Ben Weitzman Company to take over part of Outlet Avenue. Lawmakers voted 7-to-2 in favor of the measure... which will allow the "paper street" to be upgraded by the scrap metal firm... which will soon begin a major upgrade of the facility. However... during an earlier public hearing... Rhonda Swanson of Lafayette Street said she's strongly opposed to Ben Weitzman being given property to expand. City Council President Greg Rabb says lawmakers understand the neighbors concerns... but, he feels Weitzman's owners should meet with the neighbors. Rabb says... if Weitzman does what it says they're going to do... they'll be investing in the city, providing more economic activity, and protect the river and Riverwalk areas. Third Ward Councilwoman Tamara Dickey, and At-Large Councilman George Spitale voted against abandoning the street.
Jamestown's second, full-time City Court Judge is a long-time resident who has served both the legal community... and, in local politics. Mayor Sam Teresi last night appointed current County Legislator Fred Larson to take over the new, full-time position... left open after Associate Judge George Panebianco turned down the post so he could continue his law practice. City Council then confirmed the appointment in an 8-to-1 vote. In announcing his decision... Teresi told the city council that he decided on Larson in "anything but a light and cursory fashion...."
Larson... who is also a former City Councilman... has also been a citizen member of the Jamestown Board of Public Utilities in recent years. Teresi says deciding on Larson was "very difficult" because there were several other outstanding city attorneys he considered. Only Councilman Brent Sheldon voted 'no.' The state approved Jamestown for a second, full-time judge because of the current caseload in City Court. Larson will have to give up his seat on the county legislature... and, BPU prior to becoming the city's second judge.
A former Stateline Speedway racer... and, area businessman... has made an offer to purchase the one-third mile speedway, and all the land it's on in Busti. Westfield native Bill Catania, Jr. confirmed for Media One News Monday that he has made a "fair market" offer in Warren County District Court for the Kortwright Road facility. It's been presented to current operator Jennifer Seamens... and, the children of late owner Fritz Seamens. Jennifer Seamens' and her attorney are respresenting Seamens' estate. Catania... who now owns a business and race team in Winston-Salem, North Carolina... says he hopes to announcement later in the week whether the offer has been accepted.
New York state lawmakers are proposing measures to help combat the resurgence of heroin, including increasing penalties for selling opioids that result in death, equipping first responders with overdose-reversal drugs, and requiring health insurance providers to cover rehab programs and anti-addiction medication.
Congressman Tom Reed held three more town hall meetings this past weekend -- two in the Jamestown-area -- and there was a constant theme to each of them. During his weekly conference call with Southern Tier Media Monday... Reed said he held his first session in the Mayville-area Saturday... and, another one near Randolph. The Corning Republican says he's now held 137 town hall sessions... and, the overriding sentiment was to curb federal spending. Reed says the Republican Majority in Congress has already been able to cut discretionary spending to pre-Korean War Era levels. For example... he says the GOP Caucus has reduced Foreign Aid spending from 53-billion to 47-billion dollars a year.... and, he believes they can cut even more. Reed says it didn't take long after his special election in 2010 to the Southern Tier District that he saw the need for changes. He had just gone to the floor of the House for a vote on a bill sponsored by then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi... however... no information on the measure was available prior to the vote.
A Clymer woman known affectionately as "Grandma" around WCA Hospital has been named as it's "Volunteer of the Year" for 2013. Ann Legters received the award at the 10th annual Volunteer of the Year Luncheon at WCA Monday afternoon. Legters is a retired employee of the U-S Postal Service... and, was Postmaster her last 12 years in DeWittville. When she decided to volunteer at WCA 13 years ago... she wanted a position where she could interact with people. She told the former Volunteer Coordinator Sue Sawyer that she wouldn't take a job filing papers. Legters says she began working at the snack bar... then began transported patients from their rooms for tests. Current Volunteer Coordinator Elizabeth DeRosa says Legters is a "great choice" for Volunteer of the Year. DeRosa adds they have 107 volunteers right now... and, need more... especially in two areas. DeRosa adds they also need volunteers in Physical Therapy to transport people to and from therapy... and, the Radiation Department also needs volunteers.

The end of summer is near and SES San Francisco is here! The conference is next week, August 13 – 17 at Moscone West. I am lucky enough to attend this year and am looking forward to learning and interacting with some of my favorite industry experts. The 5 day conference offers over 55 sessions on PPC, Social Media, Mobile, and SEO, as well as several networking events. SES San Francisco also features over 75 exhibitors and two new session formats, SES Talkback and Meet the Experts.
The lineup for this year's conference is outstanding and with the gorgeous city of San Francisco for a backdrop, you can't go wrong! I am really looking forward to the opening keynote, Business Optimization in a Digital Age, delivered by Avinash Kaushik. I have yet to see Avinash speak and all of my colleagues have only amazing things to say. I am really excited to hear his unique perspective on balancing multiple media channels. Selecting which tracks I will be attending was very difficult for me. So to help you out, I have studied the agenda and selected my top five sessions.
Big Data: What Marketers Need to Know
Bryan Eisenberg, NYTimes Bestselling Author; Bryan & Jeffrey Eisenberg & Associates
August 14, 10:30am – 11:30am
"The money is in the data" is the mantra for this session lead by Bryan Eisenberg. When I saw Bryan would be speaking at SES, I knew I would be attending this session, regardless of the topic. Bryan is a great speaker and is able to simplify his content and deliver actionable advice. Leveraging big data and acting on insights in real time are some of the topics highlighted in this session.
Mobile Marketing Tactics
Seth Berman, Director of Global Marketing, BabyCenter
Zephrin Lasker, CEO and Co-founder, Pontiflex
August 14, 11:45am – 12:45pm
The role of mobile in PPC advertising continues to grow and is a great method to increase customer engagement. In the last few months several clients have been interested in developing mobile campaigns to increase engagement and provide more measurable results. When I read about this track, I knew it was something I would want to attend so that I could expand my knowledge in this area to drive acquisition for my clients and create mobile campaigns as a complement to search.
Web Analytics Deep Dive
Thom Craver, Senior Technical SEO Manager, TopRank
Garry Przyklenk, Manager, Analytics Implementation, TD Bank Group
August 14, 3:30pm – 4:30pm
Thom Craver is another great speaker that always delivers great content. Analytics is an area where I really want to expand my knowledge base to transcend beyond basic metrics. Thom and Garry Przyklenk will show how to determine more common-sense information from the visitor data that you have collected. Interpreting results in terms of an organization's needs and objectives is the main topic I am looking forward to.
Generate More Pinterest: Getting the Most from the New Kid on the Social Block
Jennifer Evans Cario, President, SugarSpun Marketing
Mat Siltala, Founder, Avalaunch Media
August 15, 1:30pm – 2:30pm
Pinterest is a recent addition to social media, but it is already driving more traffic to websites than YouTube, Twitter, and LinkedIn. I am yet to attend a conference where Pinterest is the sole topic of a session, so when I found out about this track, I knew I wanted to have this on my agenda. I am really interested in hearing what Jennifer and Mat have to say about leveraging the traffic from Pinterest to create value and conversions. Optimizing infographics for Pinterest, improving search relevance, and building loyalty are some of the main points that will be covered.
Effective PPC Auditing
Jeremy Hull, Associate Director of Paid Search, iProspect
Joseph Kerschbaum, Vice President, Clix Marketing
August 16, 1:00pm – 2:00pm
Joseph Kerschbaum is one of my favorite speakers and his blogs are my go-to for the latest PPC tips, features, and news. I was able to see him speak at SES Chicago last November and he was kind enough to do a guest post for my blog series on our Amplify Interactive blog earlier this year. Auditing is a very frequent process for one of my clients and we are working hard to improve our strategy on how we audit our existing search campaigns. I am really looking forward to receiving some advice on how to create a sustained plan of continuous campaign auditing, analysis, and optimization.
If you haven't already purchased your ticket, it's not too late! Tickets are still available and you can check out the agenda to figure out your top session picks. Let us know what you're attending in the comments!

The big companies are not willing to pay people a decent wage, because it will cut into there profit margins, so they ship everything over seas and sell it here for the same price to make the investors more money.
Dont get me wrong, if you invest you should make money, but people cant say that there are a ton of jobs out there that you can live off of, because there not there.
Skilled trades,The Medical Field and some Tech Jobs are really the only jobs that are going to make it in the future, because everything else can be outsourced.
Hell even the military is being cut back, and then all the guys and girls coming back from there deployment are going to be shit out of luck, unless they have a special training.
The days of getting a decent job are long gone, and there are more People then Jobs.
Before you take it out on the big companies that you feel are outsourcing only to make a couple more bucks, you should check into how expensive it is to do business in this country.

SEATTLE -- The sighs of relief blew through Safeco Field like reviving trade winds off nearby Puget Sound.
The "real" Felix Hernandez was back.
The 2005 wonder returned to his rookie form by allowing one run and striking out eight in a season-high 7 2/3 innings, leading the Mariners to an 8-1 victory over the slumping Tampa Bay Devil Rays on Tuesday night.
"This is the kind of guy who can become an ace," All-Star outfielder Ichiro Suzuki said.
Suzuki helped with three hits and two RBI as Seattle won for the third time in four games following a four-game losing streak.
Tampa Bay lost for the seventh time in nine games and fell to 2-8 against the AL West.
The 20-year-old Hernandez was 4-4 with a 2.67 ERA, 77 strikeouts and only 23 walks last season, electrifying an otherwise dismal Mariners summer. But so far this year, he had been a contributor to Seattle's skittish 2006. He was 1-4 and had allowed six home runs in six starts, one more than he had allowed in 12 starts last season.
He had also surrendered four runs over five innings in each of his previous two starts -- and at least that many in four of six starts overall.
Was he relieved?
Hernandez nodded and sighed through closed lips after allowing five hits for his first home win in four starts.
"Yeah, it feels good it's finally here," he said, through an interpreter.
His offense may have felt the same way. Seattle scored as many runs Tuesday as in its previous three games combined.
Kenji Johjima's two-run single gave Hernandez the lead in the second inning. Carl Everett added to it with a solo home run off starter Doug Waechter (0-2) just inside the right-field foul pole in the fifth.
It was Seattle's first home run since May 1, a span of nine games. Everett's homer ended a string of 25 consecutive singles for a Seattle offense that has been anemic most of the season.
The Mariners then piled on three runs off Waechter and a fourth off Brian Meadows in the eighth -- with all the RBI on more singles. One was Yuniesky Betancourt's third hit. Suzuki followed with his third single and Jose Lopez with a two-run hit.
Waechter allowed a season-high 11 hits and seven earned runs in seven-plus innings.
Hernandez and pitching coach Rafael Chaves both said the right-hander had been opening his front shoulder before delivering. That caused control problems and had all of the Northwest wondering, "What's wrong with Felix?"
"I would say if he's not back all the way, he's pretty close," Chaves said.
Manager Mike Hargrove reiterated his belief that Hernandez not throwing for 10 days because of shin splints at the end of spring training "had him all discombobulated."
Hernandez agreed, saying, "I was completely disoriented."
Not against Tampa Bay.
"His fastball was electric," said Carl Crawford, who was struck out twice by Hernandez but did have his AL-leading 12th stolen base of the season in the first inning. Hernandez then got Aubrey Huff to foul out to end that rally.
The first two Devil Rays reached in the second, but Hernandez got Travis Lee to ground into a double play and then struck out Russell Branyan.
Joey Gathright led off the Tampa Bay third with an infield single. A hit by Julio Lugo and a sacrifice fly by Jonny Gomes scored Gathright to cut Seattle's lead to 2-1. Lugo then stole third, but Hernandez got Huff to ground weakly to first base to end that threat.
Lee doubled off Hernandez to begin the Devil Rays' seventh. But Hernandez then struck out Branyan for the third time, buzzed a 95 mph fastball past a flinching Gathright for another strikeout and then got Lugo to ground out for a convincing end to Tampa Bay's final rally.
Hernandez struck out four of his final five batters. When Hargrove came out to replace him with George Sherrill after 108 pitches, it fulfilled the team's promise to limit Hernandez's pitches throughout this season.
It also brought a cascade of boos from the Safeco Field crowd of 19,726. Many of the fans then gave the departing Hernandez a standing ovation.
Hernandez touched the bill of his cap.
"It was just such a proud moment for me," Hernandez said. "I thank the fans for reacting that way."
Suzuki has raised his average from .177 to .288 in three weeks. When asked if he was now hitting the way he wanted to, Suzuki replied, "When was I not?" ... Rafael Soriano pitched the final 1 1/3 innings for his first save since July 25, 2003. ... The Devil Rays are 13-21, the same record they had after 34 games last season. They finished 2005 at 67-95. ... Gathright, who has been clocked at 6.1 seconds in a 60-yard dash, used that speed on a turning, running catch on a liner by Jeremy Reed in the fourth. In the fifth, Gathright sprinted, jumped and caught Adrian Beltre's deep drive before smacking his back into the left-center field fence.

Lynnfield Lab update
Posted on 21st Aug 2009 at 10:52 by Richard Swinburne with 7 comments
We've been running numbers for the last two weeks for both magazine and online coverage of Lynnfield - you'll get the full package all together in Issue 74 of CPC, and of course, for bit-tech we'll be there with the info throughout September (depends on Intel's NDA as to exactly when). Custom PC readers will get a different experience to those just reading bit-tech, but we've carefully designed it so everyone will be informed.
On the test bench has been all the upcoming Lynnfield CPUs - retail boxed ones - and a selection of P55 motherboards, including the MSI P55 GD65, Gigabyte GA-P55-UD5 and Asus P7P55 Deluxe with the MSI P55 GD80, Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD4 and ECS P55 (possibly) reviewed at a later date.

Hi Guys
Iwas hoping someone could tell me the colours of the wires for my rear window defogger and the antenna.
Basically where the boot door loom meets the car loom, behind the NS brake light, I had a corroded connector. So badly corroded that the pins had disintegrated. The guy that was reading my codes cut the connector out and replaced wih bullet connectors.
Now I've just noticed that my radio doesnt pick up half the frequencies now so i think hes mixed a few wires up :(
If anyone can tell me the colours of whats what i would be much appreciated.

|Project Name:
|Time Travelers: Teaching American History in the Chicago Southlands
|Project Director:
|Elizabeth Orr
|$833,001 over 5 years
|Number of Teachers Served Overall:
|Number of School Districts Served:
|Grade Levels:
|Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, Constitutional Rights Foundation - Chicago, Newberry Library, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, eLearning Systems
|Year 1: Beginnings through 18th Century: Shaping a Nation
Years 2 and 3: 19th Century through World War I: Conflict and Resolution
Years 4 and 5: 1920s through Modern Day: Continuity and Change
|Workshops, summer academies, seminars
The Chicago Southlands districts comprising this project occupy an area with a rich history tied to the Industrial Revolution. The ethnically diverse area suffers from poverty, crime, high mobility, and high-risk industry. The curriculum does not present U.S. history as a stand-alone subject until high school, so students generally arrive with little background knowledge. In separate but parallel avenues of professional development, Time Travelers historians and professors will deliver content knowledge through school-year workshops and summer institutes, while a university scholar will facilitate and support teachers as they design and implement curriculum materials related to American and local history. Ten teachers a year will join in Years 1 to 3, for a total of 20 high school, four middle school, and six elementary teachers, plus two vertical team leaders. At least one teacher from each district will teach English as a Second Language and/or special education; all teachers will be asked to mentor colleagues. The Time Travelers theme is one of connecting local and state history to national history. Teachers will work in vertical teams to create strong support for sustaining the project in the future. All teachers will study the same topics, approaching them in grade-appropriate ways. For example, elementary and middle school teachers will focus on the administrations of Washington to Lincoln, learning about Manifest Destiny, slavery, early industrialism, and sectionalism. High school teachers will cover the same issues but with emphasis on dissent related to foreign policy and social issues. The curriculum materials produced during Time Travelers will be available to all area history teachers.

|Workshops, summer institutes, seminars, study tours, mentoring, Professional Learning Community
The People and Places consortium is in southern Illinois just east of the Mississippi River and near St. Louis. It has 23 schools in need of improvement, corrective action, or restructuring. Many elementary teachers do not have history teaching endorsements. Secondary teachers who participated in a previous Teaching American History grant will mentor elementary teachers as they design lessons and create Web-based portfolios related to the content of seminars, summer institutes, study tours to historical sites, and other activities. Participants will network with teachers outside the project and with preservice teachers in quarterly reading seminars, Web-supported discussions, and 1-day workshops. People and Places is designed to support the elementary teachers who introduce students to their first experience with U.S. history. To this end, it hopes to develop at least one teacher leader per building in consortium schools. Three cohorts of 40 teachers will participate for three years each and experience identical content organized around the theme of exploring the nation through the historical contexts that shaped and transformed its ideological heritage. During this exploration, teachers will engage in rigorous, research-based strategies such as higher level questioning and differentiating for different ability levels, integrating technology into teaching and learning, and applying historical thinking skills. The content of this professional development will rely in part on local and national primary sources, and teachers will learn how to turn their classrooms into historical laboratories. People and Places participants will share units of study they develop during the project and join a county-wide cadre to improve American history education.

|Summer institutes, workshops, learning trips, discussion groups, coaching, mentoring, blogging, turnkey training
Led by the Urbana School District, the American History Teachers' Collaborative includes seven school districts in central Illinois; four of these districts have been in improvement status for 5 years. Each year, the collaborative will provide professional development to K-12 history teachers in the form of a week-long summer institute, four Saturday workshops, a 3-day experiential learning trip, and four evening discussion groups during which teachers will analyze books and lectures. Participating teachers will also conduct local history research, present at local or national conferences, participate in a blog, and become history teacher leaders in their schools. Each summer, 20 teachers will also complete internships with a museum or archive partner. The program will serve 60 teachers each year. Eight teachers who participated in a previous Teaching American History grant will assist with program planning and act as classroom coaches, mentors, and small group facilitators. These teachers will provide extra support to beginning teachers and to elementary school teachers, who must translate history content to grade-level-appropriate lessons and activities. Participating teachers will learn to appreciate, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate the national historical record by looking at national themes and events through the lens of local history. Instructional strategies will include best practices in the teaching of American history and will focus on meaningful ways to engage students in historical analysis. The American History Teachers' Collaborative will develop a community of teachers, historians, archivists, and curators who collaborate to enhance the teaching of American history. A program Web site will catalog lesson plans, local primary documents, and examples of best practices.

Despite the rain clouds overhead, the tape was cut this evening at Porta Reale for the real start to the summer season – the much loved, much discussed and much argued about "The Piazzette"
Twelve months ago this week, we published an article (here) with the following text: "The Piazzette, the festa del centro storico 2012 all set to go. Forty concerts over a period of the next ten days, featuring live musicians or all types, hues, colours and persuasions. The festa has this year made a huge jump in quality and quantity and thinking about it, is just one step away from becoming a full blown music festival in its own right. Maybe next year, the transformation will be complete"
So a year later and here we are once again, writing about the Festa del Centro Storico, Le Piazzette, now renamed "Live in Barga 2013" and yes, it looks as though that prediction of a full-blown music festival in its own right is just about to become fact.
This year there are 50 concerts on the menu.
The quality of music, once again, extremely high.
It's going to be a busy next couple of weeks.

It's so annoying when you have 90% of the ingredients for a dessert. And I had 90% of the ingredients for a banoffee pie recently. So I had to rethink and created instead a Banana Chocolate Cream Pie. The title is loosely based on the American Creme Pie but that has a custardy layer and this is much simpler and quicker to make.
You need:
1 packet chocolate digestive biscuits (300g)
80g melted butter
3 bananas
1 pot double cream (about 300ml)
2 bars milk chocolate (300g)
Firstly you need to pulverise your biscuits in whichever way you prefer. I used a hand blender. Mix in the melted butter and blend well.
Press the sandy crumbs into your dish: I would recommend a spring-form tin because it's easier to extract the finished result but I used a quiche dish. Just make sure you line the bottom. Refrigerate whilst you get on with the topping.
Melt the chocolate and leave to cool.
Meanwhile, slice your bananas and arrange on the biscuit base.
Whip the cream until stiff, then beat in the cooled chocolate.
Spread the chocolate cream over your pie.
Serve immediately. Or refrigerate for midnight snacks.

I am interested in getting luminers or just braces. I want to cover up a gap between my front teeth. I am really self-conscience about the gap. I feel when I am laughing or talking that is people stare at. I think it's rude, but if I can correct that would make me very happy. Just wondering what is better braces or luminers?
Braces Vs. Lumineers - Which is better?
Doctor Answers 1
Should I Get Lumineers or Braces?
Without seeing a photograph of your teeth it is very difficult to give you a correct answer as to which would be better for you to have. I can tell you that if the space is not too large, Lumineers may be able to close the space without making your front teeth look too wide. If the space is really big orthodontics (braces) may be needed to give you a nice, aesthetic result. Hope this helps.

After catching a glimpse o
f Rex Ryan's ar
m tattoo, his bizarre calf ink suddenly looks less insane.
All of Ryan's hard work this season — one that saw the Jets go 6-10 — is paying off, as he was spotted Thursday catching some rays down in the Bahamas. One glimpse of the sunbathing coach, however, revealed that he actually has more body art than originally believed.
In addition to his calf tattoo, which consists of "a mountain, s ome waves and some sharks," Ryan apparently has a tattoo of his wife on his arm.
The fascinating part about the arm tattoo isn't just that it's an image of his wife — although that, in and of itself, would have been somewhat questionable. Instead, what really lands Ryan's ink in the weird category is that his wife — at least, it looks like his wife — is donning a Jets No. 6 jersey, no pants and rather large feet.
In other words, imagine a tattoo you would come up with to make fun of Ryan, and that's what you've got. Ryan has constantly stuck by
Mark Sanchez
throughout the quarterback's lackluster career, but getting the signal caller's number tattooed onto a scantily clad cartoon of his wife crosses the line in terms of insanity. Then, toss in the very detailed tootsies that the cartoon version of Mrs. Ryan features, and you have instant ammunition to revisit the whole foot fetish dilemma of 2010.
And is Mrs. Ryan Tebowing ?
That's up for debate, but she's definitely in a Tebowing-esque pose. Given Ryan's unwillingness to use Tebow week in and week out, though, that part might just be a coincidence.
Then again, who knows? Perhaps Ryan decided to get a tattoo that reminded him of why he got fired.
Wait, he didn't get fired yet?

I bow in front of the Gods of Hangun Forum and respectively ask for advice:
I have searched and read many old threads.
Here's the issue...I am new to shooting in general. I am taking it up to spend more quality time with my teenage son who has expressed a big interest in shooting in general. I bought a ruger 10/22 lr, joined a local range, took a certification course and we are loving it. I am set to take the NRA basic pistol course in a couple of weeks (with my son). It took over 6 month here in NY state but also got my handgun permit recently.
I would love to start shooting a handgun...almost exclusively target and plinking (we are not hunters). Most (not everyone) has suggested that the first handgun should prob be a .22. Gander mt this week has listed ruger mark III 22/45...S&W 22lr...Baretta U22 Neos 22 LR target...each at $199.99. I eventually would like to upgrade to a 9mm gun for fun..home (?carry?). I wonder what gun, at this price people would choose, or should I just start with the 9 mm? I cant say I am particulary mechanically inclined and ease of teardown is a issue (concerns about the 22 A). Cost isn't a huge issue but I think I will be able to convince my wife into 1 gun for now. It probably makes sense for me just to wait until after the basic pistol class which apparently will allow me to shoot many different ones. Love to here the guru's thoughts.
Submitted with all due respect!:mrgreen:

Sometimes telling is an essential part of curriculum delivery, but sometimes allowing students to experience learning through discovery rather than requiring them to take notes about content offers a more powerful lesson. This practical session will demonstrate strategies for curriculum design that involve engaging students in active learning that simply couldn't happen for students who are listening only. We'll also invite participants to share their own favourite strategies.

that you get want what you win and highly discourages reselling or trading of prizes after the

As a child I holidayed here many times and fell in love with the island. It offers both freedom to do as you like and great pubs, food and natural landscape beauty.
Anastasia mccrave purchased this house in 2001
Anastasia Byrne. I've owned and enjoyed this property for 13 years now and I can honestly say it is the only place I can forget about time and just relax. I enjoy the area immensely. I love Anglesey because of the fantastic facilities in the area. There are some beautiful beaches and the village offers a great range of bars and restaurants. There really is something for everyone here. The area is easily accessible off the A55. The property is just ten minutes walk from the fabulous beach. The Cottage is close to the most dramatic stage of the Anglesey Coastal Path. Just walk along the pebble bar at Cemlyn Bay to join it and explore in either direction for a diverse range of dramatic scenery. The Island has a wide selection of beautiful beaches many with Blue Flag, Green Flag or Seaside Awards. The nearest, Cemlyn Bay is a nature reserve popular for bird watching, fishing, kayaking and skimming stones, you may even be lucky enough to spot porpoise and dolphin in late Spring and Summer.
The house is 10 minutes from the beach were you can view local wildlife, it benefits from local pubs, great walks. It does make you forget time.
A lovely week spent here, house is very cosy and is equipped with everything you need. Owner is quick to reply. A shame the sky subscription had been stopped but owner generously offered to refund us if we wanted to watch anything. There are currently road works in the area, which disrupted travel routes occasionally, however this is only temporary. The 2 log burners are great and the views nice. Overall an enjoyable week away. Thanks.
The location of this property is stunning, beautiful views and walks in every direction. The house itself is a big house however it does need a bit of a face-lift, we had a few issues with the property,these were as follows:-
) 1 bulb working in our bedroom.
) staircarpet needed cleaning.
) dust gathered around tv.
) wifi wasn't working.
) every room needed a coat of paint.
) taps in bathroom, frightened of using them in case i broke them.
In summary.
A lovely location, house just needs sprucing up.
Great house. Our children would have liked a dishwasher. Made great use of fire, sun room and garden.
Thank you for a great week in The Cottage, the welcome gifts and card was a lovely touch! The cottage is amazing starting with the sun room where you can watch the calfs and see birds then the sky sports and movies kept the children entertained the bedrooms are a great size and comfy beds. Plenty of DVDS, CDS, Games and books for rainy days. Great quiet location overall perfect holiday.
Thank you Anastasia and Phil
Our first holiday with our dog, and we all loved the cottage, the welcome gifts were a lovely touch. We had a great week with the weather plenty of lovely beaches and walks. The cottage was very cosy after a day out, with the log fire and fantastic sunsets each evening. We even enjoyed our daily visits from the local farm animals. We would recommend this as an ideal cottage for everyone and within easy reach of lots of interesting places and walks.
Thanks you Gill Dave and Sky. ps Sky loved the little black cat that came in everyday .
Just got home from a great week at "The Cottage". Very well equipped and comfortable , with beautiful views across country to the sea. We wish we had booked for longer especially as we had glorious weather too ! Owners were a pleasure to deal with. Thanks again.
Special offer rates
Nearest Village is Cemeas Bay which is about 2 miles. Shops in Holyhead 20mins. Beaumaris, about 30mins away is a lovely day out, with its fantastic castle, shops and views across the Menai Strait. Rhosneigr is a nice 30min drive and boasts nice cafes, shops. Trearddur Bay, just 20mins away offers a stunning rugged coastline and with many sandy coves and another great day trip to South Stack.
The use of a car or transport is recommended to make the most of the lovely island of Anglesey and Snowdonia beyond. The Holyhead Ferry Terminal is just 20 mins drive and trains go to Valley Station from Llandudno Junction.
Pleasant 10 minute walk to the local beach in Cemlyn, this beach is a wonderful pebble bar with a large brackish lake popular with wading birds, ducks and swans. You can also drive or walk to the village of Cemeas Bay that has a lovely, safe, sandy beach front and nice shops.
Cemlyn is renound as a Birdwatching area with many wonderful birds to be seen in the cove not 10 minutes away. The area is within the National Trust zone and is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Useful Information - Local Shops are plentiful in Cemeas Bay but times of opening are not as long as those you are probably used to. On Saturdays the butcher, chemist and some bakeries will close as early as 1pm, although the Londis stays open until 10pm most days. For 'big' shops there is a Tesco, Morrisons and Asda in Holyhead.
There are local water sports that you can enjoy. Windsurfing is very popular all year round in nearby Church Bay and Rhosneigr
There is a post office and ATM in Cemeas Bay
There are plenty of good places to eat out on the Island, The Harbour in Cemeas has a restaurant and bar meals and offers good value, as does The Stag. The Black Lion is a popular local gastro pub and does a good Sunday set menu. The Lobster Pot in Church Bay is said to be one of the best seafood restaurants but can be pricey. The Waterfront in Treaddur Bay has lovely views, is reasonably priced and has a nice modern restaurant. The White Eagle in Rhosgoch has nice views and is said to have been popular with Wills and Kate (booking advised for dinner in Summer). The Bull in Beamaris has an excellent reputation, it has a modern bistro and traditional restaurant set in one of the oldest pubs in Wales. The Oyster Catcher in Rhosneigr is a lovely spot for lunch or dinner in Summer and has an interesting art gallery!
The Ship on Red Wharf Bay is also good and is a lovely location (especially in Summer). Go through Benllech and turn left at the sign for the camp-site (by the house that was once a windmill) and follow the narrow road down to the left. There is also a good pub in Molfre called the Kinmel, the food is good, reasonably priced and the village picturesque. Plas Newdd tea room is set in an 18th century mansion in Llanfair and was listed as one of the top 100 places to enjoy afternoon tea in Summer 2005 edition of Observer Food Magazine, the grounds are beautiful as is the mansion house itself check opening times on-line off season). There is lots of good walking in the immediate area and the coastal routes nearby are considered the most diverse and dramatic on Anglesey and were featured in Trek magazine. The Peppermill in valley is one of our favourite eateries very good food and good prices as is The harbour front Holyhead, a pub to visit would be Ty Coch Inn, Porthdinllaen which is rated the best pub in Wales and in the top ten in the world and for real ale drinkers try the Purple Dragon.

Roof vents
Hello all. First time poster....please be gentle.
Looking for opinions on roof ventilation. I have an attic space over the back half of my house that is accessible via a hatch on the second floor of the front half. It gets REALLY hot during the summers and I'm concerned about some of the items I keep in there. It's too much of a bonus not to have this space so I'd like to ventilate it better, in particular for the summer.
The space is 25x18. There are continuous soffit vents under the eaves and only a 12inx12in gable vent at the far end away from the house. I plan on sealing around the hatch so air doesn't bleed into the house. I'm assuming putting some more ventilation near the ridge may help, so I'm looking for input on......
Will regular passive slant vents help somewhat?
Would a ridge vent be better?
Is a ridge vent something I could do myself without any major catastrophies? ie.-causing leaks, etc.
Any input would be appreciated.
Will regular passive slant vents help somewhat?
Would a ridge vent be better?
Is a ridge vent something I could do myself without any major catastrophies? ie.-causing leaks, etc.
Either slant vents or ridge vent should help. Cosmetics would dictate which based on equal output.
To install ridge vent, you'd have to remove the ridge caps and cut back any of the tops of the shingles within several inches of the ridge. You'd then have to cut back the sheathing on either side, install the vent and re-install the ridge caps.
To install the slant backs, you'd need to remove several shingles for each unit. Cut your hole, install the vent and cut and re-install the shingles.
A continous soffit and RidgeVent IMO give you the maximum ventilation.Obviously slant back/turtle vents work too.I feel when applied according to manufacture specs RidgeVent with functionable soffit will out perform the vent and soffit combination.
Thanks everyone for your input.
I think I could handle the slant vents with no problem myself. Question is....is it a bad idea to try to do a ridge vent myself? Is there a big potential to cause leaks?
Also 2 quick thoughts........
Any thoughts on Cobra, Cobra 3, AirVent, etc.?
And if I do go with slant vents, leyward or windward side? Does it make a difference. The ones installed are on what is generally the leyward side for my location. Should I assume to roofers prior put them on that side for a reason and do the same?

We try to go as natural as we can with our skincare products, but that doesn't mean that we're saying goodbye to impressive results. On the contrary. Using a holistic approach, celeb facialist Cecilia Wong transforms skin with active herbs and plants that really work. This rose-scented serum spray diminishes the signs of aging and restores suppleness to your complexion—spritz it on before your serum or moisturizer to enhance the power of your skincare regimen.
Overall, I was very disappointed with the product. Despite the rave reviews and great smell, etc..... the serum cannot be used as packaged. The product squirts out in 1 steady stream, like a squirt gun; instead of via a mist. Ultimately I transferred the entire serum to my own/generic bottle in order to use it. This, in my opinion is unacceptable.1
This serum spray is really refreshing and pleasant to use. The rose scent is calming and my skin loves it. It's hydrating and toning. The downside is the packaging doesn't let you spray it directly on your face. It's too much of a concentrated stream and not enough of a mist, so I spray it onto a cotton pad and then swipe it on, which feels like it wastes product.5
I really like almost everything about this spray. The scent is great and makes my skin feel fresh. The only thing that annoys me is the spray bottle/nozzle. On the smaller version as well as the larger one I purchased separately, I was unable to spray this directly on my face as the mist was too heavy and kind of goes everywhere. Otherwise, I really enjoy this!4
I have a mild case of rosacea on my cheeks and chin. I have never found a product that improves the condition of my skin without covering it up with makeup. My complexion has never looked better thanks to this product. Only complaint is the same as other reviewers...it really is a spray not a mist. Still love it!5
I received this in the birchbox mother's day flower box. I like the size of the sample, the product was good and hydrates my skin. The product smells wonderful and the scent is not overpowering. My only complaint is that it sprays like a super soaker. Imagine my surprise the first time I went to spray it on my face and it came out like a full power shot to the face! Lol, I still use the product, I just spray it in my hands before apply to face.4

Rivets in Vinyl Siding - Is this Normal?
1 Attachment(s)
A little over a year ago we had our aluminum siding replaced with vinyl siding and we have been experiencing ongoing issues ever since. Today the contractor brought out another installer to do yet another round of repairs. This installer used visible rivets to hold the siding together. I can count 7 different places where rivets were used. Attached is a photo of just one of those locations.
Can anyone tell me if this is a normal procedure to correct siding issues?
Vinyl siding is subject to thermal expansion. By riveting two panels together, it eliminates the movement in the overlap. This will pose a problem during hot weather when the panels expand and at some point, will bind on the nails it's hung from.
ive never seen rivets used to lock two peices of vinyl togehter, lone is right about how it has to be able to move with thermal expansion
based on what your telling us its not something general contractor should be trying to find another vinyl installer to fix yet another problem,, its time for you to find a different general contractor who has good subtrades working for him
Let me guess he was trying to close up some gaps at the joint.
There was gaps because the siding was installed to loose. (not lifted fully to lock it in)
I 100% agree with the other posters both people have no business working on siding if that's the kind of work they do.
Look at the under side of the siding at the joints. Notice the cut out area that's there so the siding can move.
The only way to fix this now is to remove the siding and replace with new pieces.
what were the issues?
it will still move just as one unit,face fastening is generally a no no
In order to do that you would have to remove the whole piece to be able to cut the top and bottom, and all the nails would have to be removed to be able to slide it over, then your stuck with a big gap on the right hand side.
thanks Joe i edited that bad idea:)
By centering the nails in the slots, a panel has an overall play of roughly 1" in perfect conditions. By riveting two panels at the overlap, you still have a maximum of 1", but over twice the length. If the siding was installed in cold weather and the nails were centered in the slots, at high temps, the panel is probably close to binding under normal conditions. Riveting the lap only compounds that. Once those panels take up all the freedom over it's entire length, it will push back toward the overlap from both directions. I'm guessing the result will be unsightly.
I'd drill out those rivets and unzip the panel at those locations to know for sure what the problem is.
i was agreeing with you:yes:,but as long as the ends stay free it most likely wont buckle,if not most likely the rivet will rip out of the vinyl
Not everyone understands the science of vinyl in the capacity you do Tom.:notworthy:
Happy New Year!!
not as smart as i think:no:happy new year to you too Rizz:thumbup:
If they don't know proper installation guidelines, what do you suppose the WRB and flashing details look like?:huh:
who cares if you can't see it?:wink:
Lone - WRB? not familiar with the term.
I used to have a chart for the siding I sold, said what Gaps to leave at what temperatures.

architecture | art | technology
studio bau:ton, founded in 1990 as a boutique architecture firm, is now a fully integrated division of nonzero\architecture, carrying on its legacy as a pre-eminent force in the field of media production facilities design.
Within nonzero\architecture, the studio bau:ton division continues to offer a comprehensive approach to the complex challenges of projects for the creation, recording, production and distribution of audio and visual media and for the live arts.
The award-winning studio bau:ton made a name for itself from the very beginning, particularly in the music recording and audio-visual media industry. It introduced a new architectural approach to the design of media production facilities and its work and general aesthetic have since been widely emulated.
Architecture and sound share many parallel and intersecting elements. While this had been recognized for centuries, contemporary artistic, cultural, scientific and technological developments have given rise to new building types for audio and visual media. These projects demand solutions that offer a comprehensive approach and bridge architecture, art and technology. studio bau:ton has been pre-eminently involved in drawing together these diverse disciplines, specializing in the design and construction of buildings with unique requirements for sonic and visual performance and media technology.
A multi-disciplinary outlook has always been studio bau:ton's basis to finding integrated solutions for all aspects of its projects. Grounded in the historical foundations of design and the building sciences, the team is continuously looking for new architectural solutions to the evolving challenges of space, construction, technology, sound and vision.
In projects of every size and type, the client's needs and budgets have consistently formed the framework for studio bau:ton's search for the most efficient and economical solution. Applying both traditional and unconventional methods, the creative potential of programs, spaces and materials are always exploited to the fullest.
On studio bau:ton's name:
studio: artist's or worker's workroom, or an artist and his or her employees who work within that studio. This can be for the purpose of architecture, painting, pottery (ceramics), sculpture, scrapbooking, photography, graphic design, cinematography, animation, radio or television broadcasting or the making of music. (from Wikipedia)
bau (german): building, structure, edifice
ton (german): sound, tone, pitch, timbre
Not entirely by coincidence, the name bau:ton is also reminiscent of Bauhaus, the revolutionary and influential early 20th Century design movement and school that promoted a comprehensive approach to design, art and craft.

Home › Forums › General Forums › General Lightweight Backpacking Discussion › ultralight backpacking in the desert, carrying water
Dec 6, 2007 at 7:26 am #1226150
Hey guys,
I haven't really done much backpacking. My main outdoor sports are mountain biking, rock climbing, and trail running with the occasional day hike thrown in for good measure.
I am planning a trip for this summer to going to bike the kokopelli trail from Fruita, CO to Moab, UT.
It is a 145 mile bike ride through the desert with no water sources. The average ride I think takes four days.
Most people do it in groups and use support vehicles stationed at locations where the trail nears the main highway to store water and other supplies. I and a friend of mine are however, hoping to do it straight through without support vehicles at a fast pace of three days.
This creates the real problem since there are no water sources on the trail. I am estimating that we will need one galloon of water for each day so three gallons per person for the whole trip.
Since we can hydrate heavily before leaving on day one, and have stores at the end on day three, carrying three gallons should be more than enough.
Since this is a lot of weight as a base and is absolutely necessary, I think the only way this is even remotely possible is to take on some of the ultralight backpacking philosophy for the rest of my gear.
keeping in mind that each person can carry nearly a gallon on the bike alone (large nalgene or other type water bottles mounted on the bike) that leaves the need to carry between the two people:
1. shelter large enough for two (probably just a tarp)
2. sleeping pad for each person
3. 2 gallons of water
4. emergency and hygene supplies
5. spare bike parts (tube/tire repair kit, spare chain, small tool kit)
6. Food for three days
7. headlamps for biking in early morning/late evening hours
in may(when we are planning to go) the temperatures are usually mid 80's at the highest and low 60's at the lowest.
keeping in mind that each person is going to be carrying 16lbs (2 gallons) or water in the pack, can you guys recommend ways I can make everything else as minimalist as possible so we aren't running around with 40 lb packs trying to pedal our bikes?
We wont be taking a change of cloths, for the sake of weight and space.
I'm thinking a lightweight long sleeve and long pants base layer for UV protection with light weight biking shorts and short sleeves on top.
We will more than likely also just be eating dry food to avoid carrying cookware, etc
thanks for any help you can offer,

(1) Gallon per day seems like it is on the light side to me considering your exertion level, location and temps, but I am prone to headaches due to dehydration.
I have consumed more than that on long hikes on mild fall days here in MN and felt like I should have taken in more water.
I would also bring Nuun or a similar electrolite replacement.

I have read about the route you are taking. I would say you are taking to little water. Cache some at the half way mark and include some calories. In this case MREs are a good cache item. It isn't worth being short on a trip like this. Heat exhaustion and heat stroke are ugly (former infantryman and paramedic). Chances are you and your friend are going to use up more than a gallon a day. I think you are at least a 1/2 gallon short per day for desert conditions. In the service I carried 6-8 quarts for a day. These were usually minimum 20 mile days by foot.
Having the clothing to cover your whole body is right on track. I where long sleeve paintball jerseys all summer long. Mine have mesh sides wich helps with the ventilation.
Have fun and see the desert gear list on this web site for more information.Dec 6, 2007 at 2:15 pm #1411525

A few suggestions: 1) Cache H2O and foood at locations where trail is near the road; 2) Take part of your food in the form of sports drinks(Perpetuem, Cytomax, EFS, etc)-they are easily digested, can be taken on the move, and provide some electrolytes(although you probably will need to supplement electrolytes in your situation). I add 1/4 teaspoon~4 grams of Mortons Lite Salt to a 24 oz sports bottle of H2O to get ~350 milligrams each of potassium and sodium when I am hiking in stressful conditions and it has eliminated cramping for me. 3) Consider doing all your riding early in the day and late in the day, perhaps even at night if you can find lights adequate to following the trail. It will reduce your need for water considerably and make things easier in general, offset to some degree by reduced visibility; $) If you are concerned about getting lost or in physiological/injury trouble, consider renting a personal locator beacon(better safe than sorry?). Good luck and I hope you have a great time.Dec 6, 2007 at 5:11 pm #1411551
Heh. Don't know how I missed this. :) Good news for you, I've ridden the Kokopelli trail twice actually, once in just over 15 hours (Yes really).
When in may are you planning on going? Either way there will be water on route. There are at least 3 reliable easy to access locations plus salt creek but you might not need it so early. There are several more locations that will likely be running nicely that time of year as well. Westwater ranger station (just slightly off route), the HUGE river at Dewey bridge and fischer creek at the top are all things that can be counted on. There's also several small flows that run at mile 80, mile 98 and mile 100 if you're counting distance going from Fruita to Moab. These are seasonal but they've been there in early June before. I usually fill up at mile 80 to avoid the river water and then again along the way up the climb as needed.
Do you have any of the guidebooks? There's an older one and a new one done by a guy who leads tours on the route. I can get the names if you can't find them online.
Plan your trip so that you're moving between water locations and you'll have a MUCH better time. You can also easily cache water along the way at several spots of if you're worried and IMO there is plenty of places to bail out on the route to civilization. Keep asking questions and I'll try to keep an eye on this thread.
Have fun, I really enjoy that route although the North Beaver Mesa climb is a monster! :)
EDIT: Oh yea it's way possible the lows will be below 60. It could easily be upper 30s near the river at night and up high. Bring less water, bring more sleeping bag. An ultralight down one will be plenty. And be prepared for rain early on. Some of that soil is nasty if it gets wet.Dec 6, 2007 at 6:36 pm #1411569

Thanks for the input guys.
I am from pretty far away (eastern kentucky) so I don't really know alot about the area. I was just basing my assumption of no water and the average temperatures on some brief reading I've done online. From what I had read there were several mentions of there being no water on the trail.
If there is, then that is excellent. It will make my plans much much more do-able.
I will definitely be buying one of the guide books mentioned to start preparing for this.Dec 6, 2007 at 9:06 pm #1411596
I want to say the new guidebook that goes Fruita to Moab is Alex Hearn but that's just off the top of my head. Here's a few pictures to wet your appetite
Dec 7, 2007 at 9:41 am #1411651
Those photos are beautiful. Really makes me excited to be planning this trip.
My goal right now is to do it in late may. Is taht a descent time as far was water source goes?
I can realistically do it any time between the first week of may and the end of june so if there is a better time, I can always change my plans.
How much water do you carry with you? If there are quite a few stops to refill, it doesn't sound like I need to carry nearly as much as I thought I did.Dec 7, 2007 at 10:04 am #1411656
Late may should be fine in an normal year. You'll want to watch the snowpack in the area this winter. If it's an average year then mid to late may should be good. If it's really heavy then early may might be too early. Most likely I'll be going out there that time of year and can report back on up to date conditions of the seasonal flows then. Until we see the snowfall though it's all just a guess.
The big water sources will be available all year though so identify those (salt creek, westwater ranger station, dewey bridge and upper fischer creek) on your map and use that to plan your trip. If the seasonal flows are in then it will save you having to filter river water and use a nice spring instead plus be able to haul a little less weight up the climb and fill up at both mile 80 and 100 with cold clean water (i'd still treat there are cows around).
When I'm out in that area of the country I usually fill up my 100oz platypus bladder at good water sources and have a couple bottles on my bike as well, usually one with a nutrition drink (Hammer Perpetuem). That way I've got enough water to get me a long distance to other water sources. Realistically though after you fill up at westwater you could go pretty light the rest of the trip from mile 80 onward. From upper fischer creek it's "almost" all downhill except for the nasty 2000 foot paved climb before you finally drop into sandflats.
Study the route and elevation profile with the water spots marked. It should gradually become clear in your mind what you want to carry when. Always err on the side of enough water out there, esp if this is new to you like it sound like it is.

So you are Jennifer Aniston you need some sun and you don't like tan lines. You have a nice little crib on the beach in the California coastal village of Malibu and a nice sun deck. What's the next move? Go topless and pull a Jennifer Aniston nude.
It is your own house after all.
But be ready - as it appears that a long range lens snapped a very topless Jen and the photos are reportedly being shopped, according to People Magazine.
When your star is as bright as Jen's those pictures through a telephoto lends could fetch a pretty fancy price. And paparazzi literally walk the beach near Jen's home 24/7 when they are certain the star is there.
No matter when she's home - they are watching on the beach- waiting to get that money shot.
But Jen has put in a preemptive strike once the buzz got out that the beauty was snapped nude. She has pulled out her legal team and warns that "publications on both sides of the Atlantic could face invasion-of-privacy lawsuits if they use the shots," according to a letter obtained by the Smoking Gun Web site.
"If you are approached and offered the right to acquire and publish (any) of the photographs," reads the letter from Aniston attorney John Lavely, "please inform the undersigned of the name and contact information of any person or persons who are offering to sell or license any of the photographs."
Lavely warns that "publication of the photographs would not only expose you to substantial damages … but you … will also be held liable for the embarrassment and emotional distress caused to Ms. Aniston by such publication."
The mag notes that in 2002 that Aniston settled a lawsuit in Los Angeles federal court against a men's magazine publisher that ran photos of her sunbathing topless in her backyard.
The Smoking Gun hasmore details here.

Alaska's avian summer visitors are already here: sandhill cranes, arctic terns, lesser snow geese, common goldeneyes, mergansers and many others.
Among the most impressive are the majestic sandhill cranes, which have paused to feed in fields near Palmer, Anchorage's Potter Marsh and other spots. Alaska's largest game bird features a distinctive red head patch. They use two migration routes to Alaska. The Pacific Flyway population nests in Upper Cook Inlet, Bristol Bay and the Alaska Peninsula and numbers an estimated 25,000 birds. But the Mid-Continent population is perhaps most visible to Alaskans because the birds nest over a broad swath of the state, with some cranes stopping at the popular Creamer's Field in Fairbanks during spring and fall migrations. Altogether, more than 200,000 sandhill cranes pass through Alaska.
Cranes mate for life and biologists say they can survive some 20 years in the wild. In flight, they are stately and dignified, forming great flocks, with their honking audible miles away. But some find the cranes' mating dance on the tundra comical. The ritual starts with a deep bow followed by great leaps, hops, skips, turns, and more bows. This dance can go on for many minutes.
The common goldeneye is a sea duck that forages underwater for insects and crustaceans. Goldeneyes breed on the taiga and nest in tree cavities. They're returning from winters spent in the coastal waters of Southeast Alaska or the Lower 48.
Most of the snow geese seen in Southcentral Alaska during the spring migration are pausing to feed and rest enroute to their feeding or breeding grounds farther north. A huge population of more than 300,000 snow geese eventually gathers in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in September. During their Southcentral stopover, a favored spot of snow geese is the mouth of Kenai River.
Here are some Southcentral Alaska birding organizations you may want to hook up with this spring:

I'm having my breast implants removed-no replacement. I've had them 9 years-went from B to a C with smooth saline submuscular-have no capsular contraction-they are still soft and quite natural-looking. At age 54 I just want them out. My PS said he will do IV anesthesia and remove them intact (don't want them drained into my body). He said he will not do capsulectomy due to hematoma risk, and he won't wrap me afterward and instructed me to go braless for 2 to 6 weeks after. Does this sound right?
Is This A Normal Procedure and Post-Op for Breast Explantation?
Doctor Answers 4
Breast Implant Removal and Different "Protocol"?
Thank you for the question.
I'm afraid that asking this type of question online will do nothing but confuse you and increase your anxiety level. I'm assuming that you have done your due diligence in your selection of plastic surgeon and have some degree of trust that he is capable of accomplishing your goals. If so, second-guessing the decisions that he is making will only increase her anxiety level; you will find that every plastic surgeon who responds to you has a different way of doing things.
Different plastic surgeons may do this procedure under different types of anesthesia, some will do capsulectomy and some won't, some will use drains and some won't, some will use pressure dressings and some won't, some will use a wrap or bra and some won't.....
The reason for the difference in each plastic surgeons "protocol", is that there is no good science states one way of doing things is necessarily better than another.
Again, I would suggest that you have some confidence/trust in your selective plastic surgeon. if you have specific questions/concerns about decisions/recommendations he makes, ask him about his rationale behind these decisions/recommendations. This can be done in a polite fashion.
Best wishes.
Implant removal
If your implants are not too large and you ahve a fair amount o fbreast tissue, then usually things will look ok post surgery. Sometimes the tissue caves in a bit from the surgery and takes a while to soften up. Soemtimes drains are required as well.
You need suction drains after breast explantation to prevent a seroma (fluid collection).
The plan as you describe it has a high risk of problems. The implant capsule will exude fluid, and you need a suction drain in each breast to keep all the tissues collapsed together. Without drains, you may well get a seroma, which then has to be drained.

Breast Implant Removal
The procedure as you have written it is a standard technique. The only difference in my practice is that I ask patients to wear a really snug bra afterwards. Be aware you will feel possibly deformed for several weeks and the breasts won't look like you want, and then in a few weeks they will look fine and you will feel back to normal.
