I posted not long ago regarding the disappointment with my size following my recent breast aug & the possibility of having 'Double Bubble'.After a follow-up with my PS it turns out that I do have 'DB' & have booked my revision for the 12th Dec.I currently have 400cc,silicone,dual-plane & am exchanging them for 525cc,silicone,overs.Now,after much research,I'm having serious doubts about overs mainly due to capsular contraction.Are overs really so risky?I'm 5"6,128lbs,Dr says I have enough tissue.

Only can say it should be no issue, but even with photos nopt 100% sure. Best to obtain a few in person second opinions.
Breast Implants Over the Muscle?
Thank you for the question and pictures.
Frankly, I think you are asking for trouble if you have your implants replaced above the muscle. You're much more likely to end up with rippling/ palpability of implants, higher risk for encapsulation and interference with mammography.
Of course, there are different ways to approach revision breast surgery. In your case, I would opt for keeping your implants in the same plane by fixing the pockets by performing capsulorrhaphy ( permanent suture repair).
Best wishes.

Capsular Contracture in any breast pocket
There are major differeces between over and under the muscle. The contracture rate is slighly higher, more streching of the skin over time, and less of a natural look unless you have a good amount of breast tissue.

Repairing a "double bubble" after breast augmenation
The solution to your problem should be in the analysis of the current situation. The implant has fallen below the tighter, normal anatomic region known as the inframammary fold (breast crease). This leads to a visible crease where this fold was, and at the bottom of the existing implant, creating a double bubble. Switching location of the implant to above the muscle doesn't address the issue of the double fold. However, restoring the fold to its appropriate anatomic position will fix the crease component of your issue. Often, if the crease is higher than normal, a smaller, not larger, implant can be helpful.
Best of luck,

Over the muscle breast implant exchange not needed
Exchanging your implants for a larger size and placing the implants in a subglandular plane will probably make your results worse. I would recommend a repair of your inframammary fold or a procket revision to allow your implants to fall on a normal plane, thus alleviating the double bubble.
Should I have my breast implant above or below the muscle?
I personally do not place breast implants above the muscle for three reasons.
Reason one, and the most important one, is the potential interference with mammography more than below the muscle placement. Since one out of every seven female in this country will develop breast cancer, why make the screening process more difficult?
If the implant is placed above the muscle, the risk of capsular contracture increases. A textured (rough surface) implant will decrease the risk, but will significantly increase the chance of rippling.
Unless you have a great amount of breast tissue, placing the implant above the muscle will also increase the chance of palpability and visibility.
Bigger implants will cause more problems
You already have problem with the implants and to adding more volume will make the surgery for the revision more complicated. Your surgeon need to to repair the pocket and add more volume will stress the repair. Please do not make the situation more complicated. The solution is not above the muscle and bigger implant will cause even more problems down the road.The cause of the DB is disruption of the infra-mammary fold attachments and it should be repaired.
Over vs. under the muscle for breast implants
Without an examination and evaluation of your preoperative photographs I cannot give you a definitive answer, but I will share a few thoughts based on your photographs and proposed plan. You do indeed have some degree of "double bubble." There may be a number of reasons for this, but my primary concerns are inferior migration of the implants and your preoperative breast diameter. I cannot tell without seeing your preoperative photographs, but I imagine that your breasts were somewhat 'constricted' or narrow prior to surgery. Narrow or constricted breasts increase the risk for a double bubble because of a mismatch in the diameter of your breasts to the diameter of the implants. In addition, your incision appears a little low which might make it difficult to 'reef' or tighten up the lower poles of your breast with a capsulorrhaphy without having the scar end up beneath the new inframmary fold.
Moving the implant to a sub glandular position is unlikely to help the situation. Increasing the size of the implant, in my opinion, is likely to worsen the problem. I would strongly recommend that you go back in for another consultation with your plastic surgeon to discuss all your possible options. Good luck.
Another opinion on over muscle implants
There are a number of things to consider with going from under to over the muscle with implants. First, the reason that it corrects double bubble is because the pectoral muscle is pulling on the capsule where you see the groove across the lower part of the breast, so it isn't typically the original fold as is usually stated.(You can tell if you see it pulling up there when you flex.) The real issue in my view is not coverage but lack of support long term for large implants. Capsular contracture is more likely with subglandular vs submuscular but it should still be uncommon. Check out 2 other options just so you have a more complete understanding: subfascial and split muscle. A third option is a Strattice internal bra which would add support and correct the double bubble but that is expensive.
Risks of above muscle breast augments

The fact that St's are so big, I would not get a small dog. Your dog is still a very large puppy, he could hurt a small dog by accident. Any breed would be good. I would try the local shelter in you area. Good Luck!

Report: Obama was pushed by Clintons into 2016 endorsement of Hillary
A deal was struck: Clinton would give the key nominating speech at the convention, and a full-throated endorsement of Obama. In exchange, Obama would endorse Hillary Clinton as his successor.
Clinton's speech was as promised; columnists pointed out the surprising enthusiasm in which he described the president. It also lived up to Obama's fears, as more people talked about Clinton's speech in the weeks following than his own.
But after his re-election, Obama began to have second thoughts. He would prefer to stay neutral in the next election, as is traditional of outgoing presidents.
Bill Clinton went ballistic and threatened retaliation. Obama backed down. He called his favorite journalist, Steve Kroft of "60 Minutes," and offered an unprecedented "farewell interview" with departing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Did this happen to your site too? Here's why it happened.
When you first develop a new site, Google will purposely rank you highly in the interest of exposing you to more customers at first. Also I believe they want you to begin with a good taste in your mouth, so-to-speak, about Google. I have heard this being called a "Cinderella" ranking.
The best thing you can do now is update your content at least twice a week, and start a good external link program. While our site ranks 400,000 worldwide (our main competitors rank 8-6 million), the site must age a bit before Google instills more trust in it. Of course I miss the old site being ranked 1st in organic results, but sometimes innovation requires sacrifice, or something to that effect. And never forget... don't compete — DOMINATE.

Tennis Well-Represented in First ITA Computer Rankings
Tenn. - With the Vanderbilt men's and women's
tennis teams totally focussed on this weekend's Southeastern
Conference showdowns against Georgia and Tennessee, extra
excitement was added to the matches with the release of the
first Intercollegiate Tennis Association individual singles
and doubles computer rankings.
The Commodore men will square off with Georgia on Friday
and Tennessee on Sunday at the Brownlee O. Currey Tennis Center
on campus. Junior Bobby Reynolds (Acworth, Ga.) jumped up
three spots since the preseason rankings were released, moving
to No. 5. He is presently one of the hottest players in the
country, winning 15 consecutive singles matches. He is 25-5
on the year.
Reynolds will have two difficult matches this weekend, as
he squares off against No. 6-ranked Bo Hodge of Georgia and
No. 40-ranked Simon Rea of Tennessee. Reynolds and Hodge have
not competed against each other this season, but are familiar
with each others style. The two collegiate juniors are both
Georgia natives and were two of the top junior players during
their teen years.
Vanderbilt junior Chad Harris (Aurora, Colo.) only dropped
one spot from the preseason rankings to the first computer
poll, as he moved from No. 14 to 15. With his victory last
weekend against Indiana's Jakub Praibis, Harris eclipsed
the 20-win plateau for the 2002-03 season. This year, Harris
has defeated No. 4-ranked Daniel Klemetz of Middle Tennessee
State and No. 11-ranked Brian Wilson of Illinois, along with
several other ranked foes.
Harris and sophomore Scott Brown (St. Louis, Mo.) are the
highest ranked doubles team on the Vanderbilt squad. Harris
and Brown, who were not ranked at the start of the year, are
now ranked ninth nationally. The two have posted a 10-1 record
this year and were finalist at the SEC Indoor Championship
back in January. Reynolds and junior Lewie Smith (Memphis,
Tenn.) come in at No. 45 in the doubles rankings. While the
duo got off to a slow start in 2002-03, they have rebounded
to win all six dual matches they have competed in.
The Vanderbilt women's tennis team is also well-represented
in the ITA rankings. Senior Sarah Riske (McMurray, Pa.) had
a huge jump in the singles rankings, as moved up from No.
32 to No. 12 since the preseason poll. Riske has posted a
14-4 singles record this year and is 9-1 in dual matches.
Her only dual-match loss came to No. 1-ranked Kelly McCain
of Duke in three sets back on January 26.
After this weekend's matches against Georgia and Tennessee,
Riske would have played the top three singles players in the
country. She will take on No. 2-ranked Agata Cioroch of Georgia
on Friday in Athens, Ga., then take on third-ranked Vilmarie
Castellvi of Tennessee on Sunday in Knoxville, Tenn. Riske
has wins over sixth-ranked Cristelle Grier of Northwestern,
eighth-ranked Alicia Pillay of Tulsa and No. 19-ranked Alice
Pirsu of Pennsylvania.
Riske and junior Aleke Tsoubanos (Chesterfield, Mo.) surprisingly
dropped one spot in the national doubles rankings from No.
2 to No. 3 despite posting a 19-1 overall record and a 10-0
mark in dual matches. The Vanderbilt duo will have two important
matches this weekend, as they will take on No. 17-ranked Vilmarie
Castellvi and Melissa Schaub of Tennessee and No. 18-ranked
Lori Grey and Agata Cioroch of Georgia.
Sophomore Audra Falk (Cincinnati, Ohio) and Tsoubanos also
posted individual rankings. Neither player was ranked in the
preseason poll, but both made huge jumps in the first computer
rankings. With her 15-0 overall record and 10-0 dual-match
mark, Falk jumped into the Top 125 at No. 46. Falk owns the
Vanderbilt record for the most consecutive singles wins. Tsoubanos,
who owns a 9-1 dual-match record, entered the rankings at
No. 70. Falk and junior Kelly Schmandt (Santa Barbara, Calif.),
who are 8-2 in dual matches, presently stand at No. 39 in
the doubles rankings.

Maybe this is not news, but it's news to me. The acquisition of FabSolve LLC by semiconductor yield management and manufacturing equipment provider KLA-Tencor Corp tipped me off. In an article about the aquisition is this:
"FabSolve's geographical information systems (GIS) database structure as applied to integrated circuit (IC) design databases is used as a reference for accurately locating and classifying defects that otherwise might avoid classification using traditional methods," [FabSolve President Paul] Proctor also said.
FabSolve is actually a development partner with a Vietnam-based GIS releated business.

In celebration of Earth Day, the Massachusetts Bar Association
is wrapping up its Lawyers Eco-Challenge cell phone recycling
program, which collected hundreds of cell phones and accessories
from the legal community in the state over the past year.
The MBA has collected and recycled 239 phones, 254 phone chargers
and 90 other accessories that would have otherwise been tossed in
garbage cans since starting the cell phone recycling program in
February 2009. The program was launched in conjunction with Verizon Wireless' HopeLine program.
"Our cell phone recycling program kept hundreds of cell phones out
of landfills that contained dangerous hazardous chemicals, and it
provided a service to our members who sought a way to recycle their
unwanted phones," said Nancy B. Reiner, co-chair of the Energy and
Environment Task Force, which oversees the Eco-Challenge. Reiner
co-chairs the task force with Susan Reid, senior attorney and
director of the Massachusetts Clean Energy and Climate Change
Initiative for the Conservation Law Foundation, which partnered
with the MBA in 2007 to launch the Lawyers Eco-Challenge.
The phones and accessories were collected at five locations:
HopeLine has collected more than 7
million phones and kept more than 200 tons of electronic waste and
batteries out of landfill since the national recycling program
began in October 2001. The proceeds - including more than 7.9
million in cash grants - benefit organizations running domestic
violence awareness and prevention programming, including YWCA of
Western Massachusetts, the Norfolk County Sheriff's Department and
Boston Area Rape Crisis Center.
Since the 2007 launch of the Eco-Challenge, the MBA and CLF have
issued the MBA Lawyers Environmental Pledge, and published Green
Guidelines for the office, home and landscaping. More than 100
firms, attorneys or organizations throughout the state have joined
to become Pledge Partners.

The interface has a banner Ad at the bottom of the screen, you can remove the Ad for an additional cost. To use, simply launch the app and toggle on the lightbox. There's just enough surface area for at least 3 negative strips and the illumination is perfectly balanced. The outer edges of the lightbox UI is beveled and seems to drop off quickly, I would prefer a harder or cleaner border on the outer edge of the UI. Also, the only adjustments available to the user is one that changes the color of the lightbox on/off toggle….not very useful.
Overall the app works as intended. No more holding negatives up to a nearby window, lamp, or desktop monitor to see the frames. I use a local lab to process my color film and always find myself holding my negatives up to the windshield in my car to see the results which does not offer the best representation of what each frame on the negative has to offer. Like most tech-centric Lomographers, my iPad is always within reach so this app is a must-have.
Extended Tip:
I took it one step further and snapped a pic of my negatives on the surface of the iPad with my iPhone to create an instant mobile contact sheet to view later. It helps when it comes time to sit down in front of my computer to start the long process of scanning all my negatives…….sweet!

Lovett projects a droll, unpredictable stage presence. "I'm the guy who sits next to you and reads the newspaper over your shoulder," he says in the spoken-word introduction to "Here I Am," a signature number. "Wait don't turn the page. I'm not finished." Cue snare drum and piano, then wily horns, then Lovett's seductive chorus. His 1999 album Live in Texas starts out with "Penguins," another comic staple of his. The uninitiated can scratch their heads at the ridiculous deadpan chorus, "Penguins are so sensitive to my needs" while those in the know listen to see whether he still nods cleverly toward his ex-wife by leaving out the line about movie stars ("I don't go for fancy cars, / Diamond rings, and " Lovett sings on the live album. "Hmm hmm hmm," a backup singer fills in helpfully).
Lovett is heading a simple trio at the Folk Festival, instead of his seventeen-member Large Band. That's probably a sign that his set will lean away from his usual bluesy, brassy live sound and more toward the twang of albums like My Baby Don't Tolerate (2003). Still, he's never simply a country singer. He'd rather play the odd guy with a heart of gold than strike outlaw or regular-folks poses. Though he starts "That's Right (You're Not from Texas)" by laughing at how badly a tourist wears a hat and boots, he quickly turns into the ultimate ambassador for the Lone Star State ("But Texas wants you anyway"). In fact, Lovett's an ambassador for more than Texas. He's our national bandleader, romping through America's songbooks with a wink you hear but never see.

Offbeat Israel: Bull Sperm a Growing Industry in Israel
It's the fantasy of many a meat-eater, and thanks to an Israeli company, it is about to become a reality — beef without all the calories.
An Israeli agricultural company and a kibbutz have teamed up to develop cows which produce beef with just a 7% fat content, compared to the approximately 30% percent in normal beef.
Kibbutz Neve Or and the company, Sion, and are planning on turning herds across Israel into "diet herds." The secret is sperm from the special breed of bull they are raising and a special diet that they have developed.
Sion and Neve Or expect to sell 8,000 "portions" of the skinny-gene sperm this year, and in time put it on the international market. It will be launched at Agritech 2009, the international agricultural exhibition that is taking place in Tel Aviv in early May. There, one will be able to place an order for the sperm for just 13 Euros a "portion."
You probably didn't know this (after all, it's not the type of thing people generally talk about when chatting about the Jaffa orange and other great Israeli exports) but Israel already exports large amounts of sperm.
Israel is a central intersection of cattle sperm import and export as a result of its location and local investment in genetic cultivation of cattle farms. In recent years Israel has exported large amounts of cattle sperm to Vietnam, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Burkina Faso, the Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Kenya and Rwanda.
In another mind-boggling Israeli innovation, a company called Innowattech has developed a system that can "harvest" energy imparted to sidewalks whenever we walk around.
Its system, showcased in this slide show, promises to take energy imparted to railways from trains and roads by vehicles, as well as sidewalks by pedestrian traffic, and convert it into green electricity.

Biography from the Archives of askART
The following was written and submitted by Jean Ershler Schatz, artist and researcher from Laguna Woods, California.
Georges Braque was born on May 13, 1882 in Argenteuil, France, where his parents ran a paint shop. He was brought up in Le Havre. His father was a house painter at that time, and he encouraged the boy's attempts to draw. Georges also took music lessons from Raoul Dufy's flutist brother, Pierre, which resulted in Braque's continuous love of music; he played several instruments.
A slow deliberate student, Braque accomplished nothing much until he became, at age twenty, the youngest member of the group known as the Fauves and first came into prominence in 1906 as a Fauve painter. However he was unhappy with his first canvases in the new style and subsequently destroyed them because they were too realistic for him.
With Orthon Friesz, an old friend from Le Havre, Braque went to Antwerp where he began to lighten his palette. In 1908, Braque produced his first Cubist canvases to which the lessons of Fauvism contributed.
Braque with Picasso was one of the founders of Cubism- that style of painting which became the dominant style for the first half of the 20th century. The twenty-five year old Braque visited the twenty-six year old Picasso in his studio in November 1907. There he saw the huge and shocking Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. Braque's responded: "It is as if someone had drunk kerosene to spit fire." Braque was called the moon to Picasso's sun in their partnership. Picasso had a healthy head start but after setting up in L'Estaque in the south of France during the summer of 1908, Braque took the lead. He solidified and refined cubism's multiple viewpoints and spacial ambiguity. The collaboration then began in earnest.
In appearance, Braque differed from Picasso. Braque was a tall stocky fellow; Picasso was short, but solid. Unlike Picasso's revolving-door sex life, in 1912, Braque found one wife, Marcelle Lapre, decided he liked her and stayed with her for more than fifty years. Like his paintings, Braque was a man of many facets. He was an avid swimmer, a boxer and a wrestler. He played the accordion; he drove speedy sports cars until age finally slowed him down; and he was known as a good dancer.
In 1914, Braque was drafted into the French Army. He was hit in the head on May 11, 1915 and was left for dead on the battlefield of Neuville-Saint-Vaast. After being picked up the next day by stretcher-bearers, Braque evidently underwent cranial drilling. Having spent two days in a coma, he recovered consciousness on May 13, his birthday. He had a long convalescence, mainly in Paris and Sorgues and did not work again until 1917. His wounds would affect him the rest of his life, apparent to visitors through a certain stiffness and slowness of movement.
More than Picasso, Braque remained faithful to Cubism throughout his long life, finding in its discipline and subtle color harmonies ample means to express what he saw and thought and felt. As a young man Braque had been an apprentice in the family house-painting business and had learned the craft of simulating in paint the grain of wood or marble. It is amazing how much Braque could achieve with a deliberately limited palette.
He also had a remarkable gift for light and was a born colorist, painting with sweet and intimate poetry. He was the purest painter of his time; never mechanized like Picasso, Gris and Leger. His still life occupy an honored place in the history of this genre in which homage is paid to assembled objects of everyday life. Braque developed a mastery of textured surfaces, together with carefully calibrated tones and patterns; he emphasized shapes by forcefully bordering them. In 1912 Braque invented the paper collage, in which scraps of newsprint and ticket stubs were glued onto the canvas.
A fun-loving circle of friends and followers formed around Braque and Picasso. They went to circuses, listened to Chinese music and played instruments ranging from the accordion to weird African drums. They collected African sculpture, odd glasses and nails.

Oregon Historical County Records Guide
Josephine County Records Inventory
Federal Land Grant Records
Series records ownership of county lands obtained from the federal government. Series includes records of land grants administered under a variety of federal programs such as donation land claims and homesteads. Donation land claims are the most common type of federal land grant in Oregon that is documented in this inventory project. Donation land claims resulted from an act of the 1850 Congress under which citizens of the United States, or those who filed a declaration of intention prior to December 1, 1850 and had resided upon or cultivated the land for four consecutive years, were granted a specified amount of acreage in the Oregon Territory. Donation land claims were unique in that acreage granted to married couples was divided evenly. Half of the acreage was placed in the husband's name while the other half was placed in the wife's name. Records include plats, indexes, and survey notes. Information includes township, range, and section numbers, names of donation land claim holders and claim numbers, claim dates, acreage, and descriptions of surveys.
Under the Homestead Act of 1862, settlers were given 160 acres of land in the public domain if they built a home on the land, resided there for five years, and cultivated the land. A complete homestead entry file includes such documents as the homestead application, homestead proof, and final certificate authorizing the claimant to obtain a land patent.

Vail / Stratton & the Burton US Open
I booked a flight earlier today to Denver with intentions of going to Vail (and probably Breck/Keystone) and later found out my trip is the same week Vail is hosting the Burton US Open. What I read said that the competition will be hosted in the Golden Peak area of the mountain but I'm worried the whole place is gonna be a zoo and packed with people. I figure it'll make the night lift more fun but being on the mountain is my main priority and I'm concerned it's going to take away from the experience.
Anyone have any opinions? Has anyone ever been to Stratton while they've hosted the Burton US Open? Thanks in advance for any responses.
Just go the ten minutes down the road to Beaver Creek you will thank me for it later.
:thumbsup: and Wear 6 condoms while partaking in the 'night life' @ Vail
Beaver Creek> Vail. Any place you can ride a heated outdoor escalator to the chairlift and get fresh baked chocolate chip cookies served to you on a silver platter for free should rank on a must go to list.

'The Bachelor' star Brad Womack ousts Alli Travis and Jackie Gordon
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 02/08/2011
The Bachelor
Brad Womack
eliminated two bachelorettes and narrowed his love search to six women during last night's broadcast of the ABC reality dating series' fifteenth edition.
Alli Travis
, a 24-year-old apparel merchant from Columbus, OH, was eliminated on her one-on-one date with Brad, while
Jackie Gordon
, a 27-year-old artist from New York, NY, was eliminated during the sixth episode's Rose Ceremony.
"I feel really dumb that I'm crying right now. It's just weird to think about this coming to an end so abruptly, but I can honestly tell you that I had feelings for him," Alli lamented following her ouster.
"I feel happy that I met somebody like Brad to kind of give me a higher standard of what I want and who to fall in love with, and the next guy that I date better watch out. Because you have high standards to beat. I'm really really going to miss him a lot."
The Bachelor
sixth fifteenth-season episode began with Brad and the remaining eight bachelorettes traveling to Costa Rica, where they had previously learned they would be spending the week. Once they all arrived at The Springs Resort and Spa, the women discovered
Chantal O'Brien
, a 28-year-old executive assistant from Seattle, WA, would be getting the first one-on-one date in Costa Rica.
The women learned there would be two one-on-one dates and a group date over the course of the next week. There would be a rose up for grabs during each date -- and if the bachelorettes on the one-on-one dates and the group date failed to receive a rose, they would be ousted immediately.
Since she already had a one-on-one date with Brad, the other women - especially
Britt Billmaier
, a 25-year-old food writer from Woodinville, WA, and Alli -- were a little jealous of Chantal's opportunity to get more alone time with Brad.
Brad then picked up Chantal for their date and he noted he chose her because he was a little concerned about how dramatic she has been acting and needed some time away from the stress to just be alone with her. They took a helicopter to the longest zipline in the world, and once they arrived, it began raining. The rain has been symbolic of good luck for the couple, as most times they are together it rains.
Back at the resort, Jackie, Britt,
Ashley Hebert
, a 26-year-old dentist from Philadelphia, PA;
Emily Maynard
, a 24-year-old children's hospital event planner from Charlotte, NC;
Shawntel Newton
, a 25-year-old funeral director from Chico, CA; and
Michelle Money
, a 30-year-old hairstylist from Salt Lake City, UT, learned they would be accompanying Brad on the week's group date, leaving Alli with the remaining one-on-one date she had been anticipating for quite some time.
After Brad and Chantal went ziplining and had a great time together, they enjoyed a picnic by river, where it began to rain again. As it started to pour, Brad brought Chantal into a room where they dried off and shared a room-service dessert. The couple dove into conversation and Brad told Chantal she has been scaring him and cannot do that again to him.
Brad expressed his worry that Chantal was playing games with him, but she reassured him that she felt great with him and is done putting him in stressful dramatic situations because she was just in a bad place at the time.
"That goes to show that I'm being totally 100% honest," Chantal told Brad.
"I get that. Just don't play games with me. No, not you... I don't like it," Brad requested.
After the couple reached a good point in their conversation, Brad knew things were back on track.
"I've been so happy all day only because it just works with Chantal. I finally believe after listening to Chantal -- I don't think she's dramatic at all -- just like she said, she had a rough patch, it is what it is, she's over it. I'm going to give her that. I'm going to respect her enough. I'm moving on," Brad said in a confessional.
"Today was perfect -- perfect ending rain and all -- Chantal, please, will you accept this rose?" Brad asked her.
Chantal accepted the rose and couldn't have been happier that the two of them were getting even closer.
"This is by far the best rose, because we're at a point where he's very serious about finding someone special to spend the rest of his life with. So, him giving me that rose tonight shows that he can see himself spending his life with me... After tonight it's differently. Tonight, I felt his love and the feeling of completely and totally giving yourself up to falling in love. I did fall in love with Brad tonight," Chantal explained.
The following day, the six women went on their group date and learned they would be rappelling down a waterfall. Each girl started off going down on their own, despite how terrified Jackie seemed to be about heights and making the descent. Michelle then got angry because she and Brad had made a pact that they would never rappel down anything with anyone else during their prior one-one-one date which required them to descend down a skyscraper.
Although she was convinced Brad forgot the promise he made to her, he didn't. Brad mentioned in a confessional that he remembered the pact he and Michelle made and would live up to it. He then told her the two would go down together and the other girls got very jealous that he didn't want to have the experience with them.
Brad and the bachelorettes then went to relax and swim in Costa Rica's natural hot springs, and Brad pulled Jackie aside to tell her how proud he was of her for overcoming her fears on the group date. But then Brad realized Jackie was jealous that he rappelled down the waterfall with Michelle when she had needed him more due to her fear of heights, and all he could do at that point was try to make her feel better and explain himself.
Emily and Brad then had some alone time on the group date and Emily told Brad she was nervous about their relationship progressing and eventually coming to a halt.
"Tell me how you feel -- good or bad," Brad asked Emily.
"I find myself really starting to like you and that it super scary," Emily said.
"Why is that scary? That should be fun right?" Brad questioned.
"It is fun... but I do things in relationships to kind of sabotage it -- like guys that I really like, I run away the opposite way," Emily explained.
What Emily said worried and scared Brad, but she told him she wanted to be more open, but just doesn't know how to really do that. Brad told her he wouldn't let her sabotage what they had, and then they shared their first kiss in the water.
Michelle then got some alone time with Brad and told him her concerns about not wanting him to end up with Chantal, along whether or not they really have a true connection. She then got a little angry at him and Brad had to question her motives, revealing that Michelle's behavior has pushed them two steps back.
It then came time for Brad to decide who to give the group date's rose to. But he chose to take a different course of action.
"Here's the deal. Obviously there's a rose here tonight, okay. Ladies, these roses mean more to me now than they ever have. This is a big deal to me, and I'm going to take every single second that I have to think about who to give the roses to. So, tonight, I'm not going to hand out a rose. All of you do really mean a lot to me. I've had a lot of interesting conversations tonight," Brad told the women on the group date.
"I want you to know that I'm not going to just hand this rose to the woman who jumped first or the woman that overcame her fear. I'm giving this rose to a woman that I can see a future with. So, I need to take time. Thank you for an incredible day. I hope you understand."
Brad knew that he was not confident in his choice of who to give the rose to so he simply chose not to hand it out. He expressed in a confessional that he didn't want to have any second thoughts of which lucky lady would have received the rose.
The next day, Brad picked up Alli for their first one-on-one date and they rose horses to a 40 million-year-old cave, which they were going to explore together. Alli, being terrified of bugs, screamed when she saw bats in the cave and had trouble composing herself, but Brad was there to comfort her and convince her to get over her fears.
The couple then found a waterfall in the cave, where a picnic was setup past a small flight of stairs made of natural stone on a level landing called an "altar" -- which was previously referred to in the clue on Alli's date card.
"Going through the cave with Brad does represent my journey here, and I definitely feel like Brad is the kind of man I could marry," Alli said.
Alli and Brad then enjoyed a private dinner on a floating platform at a hotel pool, but their conversation turned flat quickly.
"When I finally have the chance to sit down and talk with Alli, I don't know how to explain it. We're in the most romantic setting in the entire world, and we're making small talk," Brad said.
Although Brad wasn't going to give up that easily, Alli started to tell Brad how her last relationship didn't work out because she couldn't picture the man's face when she thought of the man she would see on her wedding day. But her explanation sparked a common concern in Brad's mind about Alli, and he then realized what they had was on a friendship level rather than an intimate or romantic connection.
"I'm going to use what you just said. I can see myself hanging out with you through everyday of my life. Here's the problem. I don't know if that constitutes saying that you and I are falling in love, and so Alli, I can't give you this rose. I can't. I think you're an amazing woman, but I think at the end of the day, I think we both know that we have a very strong friendship, but I think that's where it ends," Brad told Alli.
"I feel so stupid right now," Alli replied.
Back at the hotel, all the girls figured Alli would be going home because she and Brad seemed to be at different places in their lives. Alli hoped to travel and find adventure, while Brad was looking to just settle down in Austin and stay put.
After Brad and Alli's date ended, Brad feared he wasn't 100% percent confident in his decision and needed time to process how he's feeling and think because he was emotionally drained. However, Michelle interrupted his thoughts and barged in to steal some one-on-one time.
Brad was uncomfortable that Michelle was possibly breaking the rules and she came in to again discuss the other girls and why they were not good for him. Brad was getting frustrated that Michelle concentrated on Brad's relationship with other women and not their own.
Later on, when the cocktail party preceding the Rose Ceremony took place, each of the bachelorettes had one last chance to secure some private time with Brad. Brad spoke to Emily and she admitted she is vulnerable around him, but regretted sharing with him the idea that she sabotages relationships.
Then Brad spoke to Michelle and told her that she's truly scaring him. He revealed that her obsession with wanting him to send all the other women home has become the focus of their own relationship, telling her that they have moved 10 steps backward.
"What makes you so confident that you know me well enough you can make that statement? Brad asked Michelle.
Michelle then got upset and began to cry, worrying that she may not know Brad as well as she thought. Although she did not see him with any other women, she now began to fear that maybe she pushed Brad too far and would lose him herself.
Meanwhile, Shawntel and Chantal were both wondering who gave Brad grief about not giving out the rose on the group date and wanted to know why he was upset. Michelle finally confessed that she went to Brad's room and didn't feel bad about it. Jackie then stated that there was an "icy tension" in the air, but nothing could have been done to change what happened.
Chantal later took Brad away to talk and she had something very important to discuss with him, even though she was already safe from elimination.
"My feelings grew a lot for you and I have fallen in love with you. I love you, and it's scary saying that because I know I'm not going to get anything back, but that's okay," Chantal told Brad.
The couple then kissed and Brad confessed that Chantal had made his stressful day so much better.
The Bachelor
sixth Rose Ceremony then commenced.
"I need to admit something. A lot of times before Rose Ceremonies, I put a lot of pressure on myself to try to tell each of you how I'm feeling -- not studder or anything like that -- so I practice my little speeches. I didn't do that tonight at all, because I wanted you to hear it from my heart," Brad told the bachelorettes.
"I needed each of you today more than I can say. You are each amazing incredibly beautiful women, and for you to actually be genuinely concerned about me, is very humbling. I truly mean that. Thank you."
Besides Chantal, Brad gave roses to Ashley, Emily, Britt, Shawntel and Michelle.
"I wanted that last rose. I wasn't expecting it right now to be that close and get to that point with him and want more and know that there could be more if he gave me a shot. It just -- it kind of hits you -- the more it hurts when you actually like, are in love. You feel like, 'What's wrong with me?'" Jackie said following her elimination.
"God, I can't believe he looked at me and said, 'I don't want to be with you.' That sucks. Brad's a great guy. I just feel like I fell short. I feel like I constantly put up a wall and like try to make sure that nobody can get through it. It would have been great to fall in love here, and I wanted it to be mutual."

FOR RELEASE: Immediate, Friday, May 5, 2000
A four-person team of Chemical Dependency Counseling students from Hudson Valley Community College walked away with the top prize at a recent college bowl event designed to test knowledge on chemical dependency.
The tenth-annual College Challenge, held Thursday, April 13, at the College of Saint Rose, was sponsored by the Capital District Regional College Consortium on Alcohol and Other Drugs. Teams are tested on their knowledge of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs and the effects chemical dependencies have on individuals and society.
Hudson Valley Community College was represented by John Coonrod of Cohoes, Bryan McLucas of Greenwich, Dominick Massaro of Niskayuna and Shawn Smith and Robert Baldwin, both of Eagle Bridge.
The Hudson Valley Community College team competed against representatives from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Skidmore College, The College of Saint Rose and the University at Albany.
"The students in our Chemical Dependency Counseling program once again showed their wide breadth of knowledge in this field. We're very proud of them," said department Chairperson Karen Nash. "These students will go out on to assist our communities as counselors and human services professionals."
The team won $200 for their first-place finish and donated the money to the Hudson Valley Community College Human Services Club Holiday Fund. The team advisor was Dr. Mary Gillespie, an assistant professor in the Human Services Department at the college.
Hudson Valley Community College offers more than 50 degree and certification programs in four academic divisions: Liberal Arts and Sciences; Engineering and Industrial Technologies; Health Sciences; and Business; as well as programs run through the Educational Opportunity Center offering certification programs in workforce and academic preparation.

Monks Hall
|Check availability & book online
Features | Map | Visitor comments | Local info | Dining out
- Unique historic house, but with all contemporary comforts
- Sleeps a couple, or a couple plus 2
- Lovely for romantic breaks or family holidays
- Child, baby and dog-friendly
- Close to excellent village pub and fantastic community shop/cafe
- A very short walk to the River Wye for riverbank strolling
- Superb local walks
- 20 minutes from the M48 Severn Bridge
A truly historic building, which once belonged to the monks of Tintern Abbey, and which is believed to be the oldest house in the Wye Valley, this beautiful property bears witness to the passage of many centuries. Originally a 12th-century monks' hall with an 'undercroft' below for animals, and extended in the 14th-century, Monks Hall has recently been carefully renovated and furnished to provide a romantic, atmospheric place to stay. Very cosy in winter and beautifully cool in summer, this Grade 2* listed property sleeps 2 to 4 (plus an infant and one good dog). Situated in pretty Brockweir village, with lovely views from the garden across to the hills, Monks Hall is only a few strides from the River Wye. Conveniently, it is only a 20-minute drive from the M48 Severn Bridge, making it a really accessible location for short breaks as well as holidays.
The renovation of Monks' Hall was an enormous feat. The owner, an expert in historic restoration, worked closely with archaeologists and English Heritage to bring this very special building back to life. In the early stages of the renovation, it was visited by Kevin Macleod of Grand Designs, who commented that it was a truly remarkable property. It is a testament to the owner's abilities that the house is warm and comfortable, and fitted out to a high standard, without compromising its historic features. Some superb modern touches – multi-coloured lights on the stairway, top spec bathrooms, and good entertainment technology make this as much a convenient and approachable living space as a historic gem.
Downstairs, a huge doorway with solid oak door leads you into a spacious well-equipped kitchen, with a range oven, a useful island topped with Welsh slate, and a big round table for convivial meals or working on enormous jigsaws. A comfy sofa means you can also relax and watch the flat-screen TV on the wall while taking breaks from the task in hand. There is also a downstairs loo.
The first floor is the main boast of the house: a wonderful drawing-room with an enormous 14th-century fire-place (and top-of-the-range wood burning stove), original leaded-light windows, antique furniture, oil paintings, generous Knole sofas and well-filled bookshelves. A doorway leads out onto steps down to the garden, and a utility space is nicely hidden behind the staircase. In summer, there is a sense of breezy elevation, with beautiful vistas from window seats across to the hills of the Wye Valley. In winter, with the gentle light from candles and the glow of the wood burner, this space becomes cosy, romantic and utterly peaceful.
The top floor has a lovely double bedroom with super-king bed and superb ensuite shower-room and loo, and a twin bedroom with a lovely bathroom and loo next-door.
The garden is perfect for sitting in the sun and watching the horses and ponies in the fields on the hillside slopes. The sound of the nearby brook, which feeds into the river, creates a dreamy backdrop to an alfresco meal, or simply some very peaceful r&r. There is also a Roman-style wood-fired pizza-oven for pizza-making fun, or for cooking roasts.
Monks Hall can simply be a place in which to relax, or to use as a base for a plethora of great things to do or interesting places to visit in the Wye Valley area. Children will love the steam train which runs through the Forest of Dean, the dedicated cycling track at Pedalabikeaway, the caves at Clearwell, and (for older ones) canoeing down the river Wye. And wild swimming is a superb way of getting intimate with the local wildlife, if that's your bag. For those who enjoy ancient monuments, Tintern Abbey is just down the road, and the beautiful old county town of Monmouth is twenty minutes away (with all facilities and superb food-shopping). Walking in the area is superb, with many footpaths curling through the forest, or following the course of the river Wye. Eating out is excellent, with good pub food and a pint at The Boat Inn at Redbrook, or excellent Indian food at the award-winning Misbah Tandoori in Monmouth. And for those who would like to enjoy the luxury of a pint or two without having to drive home, The Brockweir Country Inn (which serves food, too) is just a few steps away.

From the visitors book at Monks Hall, luxury Wye Valley cottage
By email: 'This is just a quick email to say how much we enjoyed our weekend at Monks Hall. It is a truly fantastic cottage to which we hope (and intend) to return. Best wishes, Justin' (from Hull).
'We are so blessed to have stayed in such a lovely house, surrounded by such beauty. We had a magnificent time. We loved cooking in the superb kitchen, and relaxing by the fire. And the bedrooms were so cosy and peaceful. Many thanks.' Valerie, London
'Beautiful house - lovely to see so much oak, old and new. Luxury and tranquility - a good combination, perfect for a relaxing weekend. The surroundings echoed this, and we wandered happily around the village and up and down the river. The village shop was great, and we made it just in time for the Saturday morning market at St. Briavels for more delicious vegetables and bread.' Pam and Mike, Penzance
'Beautiful house in a beautiful setting! One of our favourite stays. Everything was great! Thanks so much.' James and Sherry, Canada
'I was so excited about visiting Monks Hall after much searching on the net, and I have to say it exceeded my already high expectations. The house has been beautifully restored, with so much obvious love and care given to it. I kept discovering little nooks and crannies and interesting features the longer I stayed here. The house is very well equipped, the best I've ever come across, and cooking here was a sheer delight. The blackberries we picked made a lovely accompaniment to the apple pie. It's a fantastic place. Congrats on what you have achieved, and many thanks for sharing it.' Gilly, London
'A really relaxing week in a beautifully restored 14th-century house - would love to know more about it. Walking from the door was a real bonus. However, best of all has to be the village shop - we spent some time there every day, and it was a delight to cook their produce in your superb kitchen.' Sue and Derek, Norwich
'My 66th birthday. Wow!! What a place to celebrate in. We came not knowing what it would be like, but it was fabulous!! If I could have searched for years for somewhere to stay I would never have found anywhere as magical as this. The whole place is full of history and character, you just melt into its warmth. The fact that there is no TV in the lounge is its best feature: you can sit and dream endlessly, looking into the flames of the fire and the flickering candles. Well done to whoever restored this beautiful cottage, you didn't spoil a thing. God bless this house.' Sandra and Tony, Bristol
'What a house - really exciting to stay in and so imaginatively and luxuriously appointed. Quite a visit! The walks are fantastic - and rather long if you get lost on the way back from the Devil's Pulpit! Think the Devil was interfering with our map-reading. Every day we had blue sky and sunshine; every night the sky was full of stars. What else was there to want?' Jenny and Ernest, Elstree
'Felt like we have been absorbed into Monks Hall, and now that it's time to leave, we're really sad. Perfect honeymoon - thank you.' Mark and Rebecca, Tadcaster

Download Now: The Shuggah Pies
Meet The Shuggah Pies, three sisters who deliver serious country music with a side of sass.
We caught them at the 30a Songwriters Festival (a three-day event along Scenic Highway 30a with 125 artists performing in 22 venues). One of the first acts of the festival, The Shuggah Pies set the bar high as they played a packed room at Pandora's in Grayton Beach Friday, with a second set at the Caliza Pool Saturday. And opposed to a lot of the "shushing" that takes place at many of the festival's listening rooms (which we get, because who wants to hear a loud person talking over a soulful singer-songwriter), the Shuggah Pies sets were full of hootin' and hollering. We like that too.
Angela (twelve string guitar/mandolin), Courtney (guitar), and Amy Krechel (guitar) are Missouri natives who call Nashville home now. The sisters' impeccable harmonies combined with fearless lyrics about growing up and moving on strike a chord. "One day I'll be a lady/settle down and have a baby/but that's somewhere down the road and I've got a ways to go."
And the name? It comes from their love of baking. Yeah, we could totally hang with them.
The Shuggah Pies are currently recording a full length album at Jeffery Steele's 3 Ring Circus Music (Steele also performed at the festival) and Omni Sound Studios, both in Nashville). We can see one of these songs ending up on the "Nashville" soundtrack. (Preferably during a scene involving Deacon.)
Till then, their first single, "I'm Ready" is on iTunes. Take a listen. Turn it up. And remember we told you so.

A day after the India-Pakistan talks, guarded optimism and refrain from trading charges in public were in full display in Thimpu on Monday -- while foreign secretary Nirupama Rao quoted from Shakespeare's King Lear, her Pakistan counterpart Salman Bashir spoke of broad meeting of the minds.
However, that that may not be enough to get on with the daunting task of sequencing of the dialogue process in place to address the trust deficit to some extent before Pakistan foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi arrives in India for talks in April-May.
When asked about the next steps in the dialogue process, Rao, quoting from Shakespeare's King Lear said "As they say, in life as in diplomacy 'ripeness is all'."
Then she further explained: "We have to wait for this process to mature and we should be cautiously optimistic because there are many issues that need to be resolved between our two countries as the nature of the relationship has been very complex. We have to be realistic and should be aware of the realities but we should have a vision for the future."
Putting their mandate to address the post 26/11 trust deficit in context, Bashir said "I think we have, to a considerable extent, succeeded in doing that…. everything should be discussed and that is the format that we are pursuing.
"I think there is consensus at the leadership level that that's the practical way forward."
He also he refrained from raising the temper over Samjhauta blast and case repeated the traditional Pakistan position on Kashmir, with a sense of balance.
"We hope that the issue of Jammu & Kashmir which has of course been a central issue is resolved in accordance with the aspirations of the kashmiri people. We look forward to discussing this along with the other issues."
Though there was no extra emphasis on any of the core issues in public, Indian officials maintained that they want to "proceed with caution" and to ensure what the foreign secretaries had decided will have the support of all "the elements of Pakistani establishment on board " — meaning army.
Though what India has agreed on to discuss are issues covered under composite dialogue process, suspended after 26/11, New Delhi doesn't want to call it so. At the same time, New Delhi is cautious about the fact that on 26/11 it is yet to get a major concession in approach, that's politically useful for the domestic constituency.
At the same time, the Samjhauta train blast case is used to the hilt by the Pakistan side.
