Ash Richards - What's happened?
The next morning Natalie didn't come out of her lair till about 11. That's what I use to call Stacey's room when she didn't get up till about 1 o'clock the next day when she didn't have school.
I remember several mornings when I had to drag her out of bed and shove her into the shower. I remember the laughs that tumbled off my lips and the death glares Stacey had given me. Gosh, how I missed her. My heart ached painfully just thinking about her.
So when Natalie came skulking out her room I couldn't help but feel very upset. "Do you want some cereal?"
Natalie merely nodded. I didn't realise once I gave Natalie her cereal she'd skulk back up to bed again which is exactly what she did. I grit my teeth against the bubbling anger. I could see it on her face she was in pain. I wasn't enough to help her and she was struggling I could tell.
I glanced towards the phone then shook my head. I don't know what Natalie's reaction would be if I did call Them. I took a deep breath and walked upstairs slowly. I knocked lightly on the door before slipping in. Natalie was curled up on her bed having took small bites out of her cereal.
I again held back my anger and walked over slowly. I sat on the bed and made Natalie look at me. "I'm going to help you" I whispered firmly. "I don't care if I have to wait years or follow you across continents"
Then I kissed her a soft delicate kiss I hope she wouldn't reject.

Breaking Fashion Rules: The Power of Design
What do Alexander McQueen and local merchants have in common?
|Share on Facebook
|Share on Twitter
Upon my return from a recent trip to New York I had many ask me if I had done a lot of shopping there.
Spending time perusing the opulent shops featuring apparel by renowned designers like Miuccia Prada and Michael Kors seems natural and even logical for someone who writes a shopping and fashion blog, however I couldn't help but make a mental comparison between the vibrant city's prominent retailers and our marvelous local shops in Oak Park.
The Big Apple's fashion destinations are indeed impressive; they're massive, with well-polished marble floors, sky-high ceilings, and meticulously and artfully displayed collections of top designers' looks. (Fashion merchandisers here must all have studied for curatorial careers as well as fashion careers.)
But these distinguished shops are a bit austere; the ascetic atmosphere doesn't quite lend itself to a convivial and playful air I've grown accustomed to at the boutiques right here in Oak Park and Forest Park.
It's a very formal affair there on Park Avenue.
I'm sure there are a plethora of quaint boutiques hidden away from the bustling thoroughfares - waiting to be plundered for all of their chic apparel and accessories, but time just didn't allow for more exploring. (But boy, that Robin Williams sure was good on stage!)
I also felt the need to whisper while inside these enormous stores, and when I get excited about a design, the last thing I want to do is restrain myself. (I reserve hushed tones for church and for hospitals.)
After all, shopping should be fun (at least, you know by now that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!).
And of course there is the small issue of price. $2800 for a pair of trousers. Hmm. My entire ensemble didn't even add up to $800, and I thought it rather cute: my breezy blue top from Muse, my black harem pants from Ananas with beautiful pocket piping, my oh-so-comfortable strappy sandaled heels from Deedee and Edee's, and my never-leave-home-without-it eco-friendly necklace from Gem Boutique.
The decision then becomes whether to invest in that new scooter I've been eyeing or to devote a handsome sum to a pair of pants from Alexander McQueen's collection to my wardrobe (more on this brilliant designer to come).
They are an awfully nice pair of slacks. But I'm a bit frugal, and well, I've done the math: to get my money's worth, I'd have to wear them at least once a week for the next 64 years, and well, if I actually live to 101, won't they commence to biodegrade by then? I'm sure I'll be biodegrading by then.
The shops in New York are lovely, almost like museums housing works of well-crafted, wearable art (many designs truly reflect the artistry of the maestros of the fashion world), but for now I still prefer the shops on Marion Street or Oak Park Avenue over those on Park Avenue.
I knew unequivocally that I did want to go to 1000 Fifth Avenue, where "over 5,000 years of art" is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
And of most interest to me was the Met's exhibit, Savage Beauty, showcasing the radical garments of late designer Alexander McQueen, a technical virtuoso.
McQueen was a style icon and fashion hero to many, known for his precision of tailoring and patternmaking yoked to his bold and irreverent designs; nonetheless, he remains a tragic figure in that he took his own life at the age of 40 in February of 2010.
The Chief Designer at Givenchy from 1996 until 2001, McQueen eventually launched his own label, Alexander McQueen, coveted by high-profile socialites, dignitaries, and celebrities (and me).
The British couturier intertwined fashion with drama, fantasy, and extravagance, creating shocking displays on the catwalks. He was an intrepid designer who considered himself a "romantic schizophrenic."
"You've got to know the rules to break them," he said of his fashion methodology which was at once disciplined and unconstrained, rigorous and impulsive.
He once stated he wanted people to be afraid of the women he dressed, he wanted to empower women.
Isn't it interesting how the goal of a fashion wunderkind - born, raised, and educated across a great ocean, miles away - mirrors exactly that of the merchants in Oak Park and Forest Park?
They aim to make dressing and shopping both a spontaneous and artful experience, to ignite our sensibilities, and to cloak all women in confidence.

I wanted to alert you to a local connection to the McQueen exhibit you may not have been aware of. River Forester Hogan McGlaughlin had two pieces included in the Barney's windows (curated, I believe, by Daphne Guiness) currently on display. McGlaughlin made the aquaintence of Ms. Guiness while staying at his studio in New York, and designed the "knife shoes" that she wore to the opening of the Barney's windows. I'll follow up by posting the Barney's opening, and Hogan's Tumbler site.

The Alexander McQueen exhibit has been extended through August 7th (it was originally slated to close at the end of July). Good news for anyone planning a trip to New York. No news of further venues to host the exhibit yet.

This doesn't get any better. . . thank you for your love of McQueen, the images, the history, and of course, "you've got to know the rules to break them." Is the McQueen exhibit traveling beyond the Met?

Hey again, gang! I have a question for all of you. I've gotten some great suggestions over on the Newbie blog for which movies I should review on my weekly podcast (you're already listening to that, right?), but it seems to me like all the movies people are suggestion are ones they've already seen! Why have me review a movie you already know you like? LOL
So, how about this: How about a few suggestions for movies you're on the fence about. The ones you're not sure if you want to see or not. Let me do the dirty work on this stuff!
Bring it on!
And thanks for your help!

Greeks were able to create Kouros figures because there was peace, trade and money., The only people who could afford such sculptures were patrons and wealthy merchants.
The Kouros Figure is a figure that is male, nude and typically in the prime of its life., These sculptures mostly represented ideal males. They also symbolized strength and power, courage, and perfection., The sculpture was always nude because it shows perfection.
The two basic purposes of this sculpture was for religious aspects and grave markers.
Attic Kouros, The standing is still and postured., Muscles, nude, portrays perfection., The Greeks are focusing more on humans instead of Gods.
Metropolitan Kouros, More Realistic, smoother, more natural, and detailed hair.
Kroises, No bony knees, more realistic in every aspect, wider hips, natural hair.
Moschophoros, Moschophoros means calf bearer., Used to show how to carry the sacrifice for the gods., Differences, Ritual clothing, not stiff and postured, not portraying a young man, first sculpture with a bellybutton, the figure is a priest.
Kore Figures, Kore figures are different because they are all female. They are also always clothed and have their feet together, seen with one hand holding something all the time., Peplos Kore, Similarities, Tight braided hair, disfigured, same material used in Kouros is used for this, archaic smile., Differences, Clothed, holding a pot and pomegranate, Chiton Kore, Longer hair, more detailed dress and face, different hairstyle.
The Phoenicians began to settle down after peace strode over and started the trade system., Because of this peace, the alphabet system was created., With the alphabet, the works of the Odyssey and Iliad were written down quickly.
Aeolians settled in the north.
Known to be peaceful.
Had no special attributes.
Settled in central Greece, Aegean and Asia Minor.
So many lived in center Asia Minor that it became Ionis.
Had the best trade routes, best ports, best lands; became the most intellectual of all Greeks
Athens and Corinth were both Ionian cities, philosophy began among the Ionians of Miletus.
Arrived around 1200 BCE
Most warlike of all. Plunder and loot Aeolians and Ionians.
Eventually conquered Crete and southern Asia Minor, down the coast all the way to Egypt.
Caused the start of the Dark Ages., Dark Ages, Types of Pots, Hydria, Used to pour water or other liquids., Pronounced High-Jruh., Lekythos, Used to pour oil., Because of it's small size, oil is the best suitable material for it to carry so it doesn't cause a large scale fire., Krater, Used to mix water and wine., Amphora, The most common pot., Used to store both liquids and dry goods., It can range between 1 ft and 6 ft or more., Kylix, Used as a drinking cup., Oenochoe, Used as a pouring jug., Usually used for taking mixed water and wine from Krater and pouring into a Kylix., Six Characteristics of Greek Vases, Horror Vacui, The need to fill every little space with some sort of decoration or else evil beings will seep out of those empty holes., Rigid division of a vase into a rational and balanced order., The use of geometric shapes., Circles are uncommon in Athenian artwork., Three horizontal lines separate each change of decoration., The most important scene is placed between the handles where the vase swells out. This brings the scene into the viewer's space and the handles frame it., People and animals on the vases are constructed out of crude geometric parts., This is a reflection of how the artists had a lack of artistic skill., The human division into geometry reflects the fact that during the Dark Ages, the Greeks had no sense of humans as a whole., The word "body" or anything related to it for the matter never existed., The Dark Ages was a time of no architecture. Small, crude bronze sculptures were the only form of art created.

All reader reviews by Cat
Deeply disappointing. Judging from the raft of good reviews, I must have come on an off night (Monday). Welcome was lukewarm at best but they did seem understaffed for the number of diners.
No matter but we had to wait 50 minutes for the starters to arrive. Normally I would say that we are pretty uncomplaining and appreciate that fresh food takes time to come. After 40 minutes though we were trying to catch the maitre'd's eye. Without much success until he saw us after 49 minutes, then quickly bolted into the kitchen. Starters arrived one minute after that which leads me to believe that they had forgotten our order. Again remediable had anyone come forward to apologise. Pasta was good but nothing memorable - perhaps the long wait had taken the shine off it.
They must have been trying to make up after that as mains arrived virtually as our starters were being cleared. Husband's steak was covered in a gloop of borlotti beans. Meat was good quality, but neither of us has ever experienced it being served in bean soup before. Bizarre and not too pleasant either by all accounts.
We gave up on desserts and escaped before any further culinary damage could be done. I'd like to say that I'd go back to give them another chance but I just can't bring myself to.

L'Autre Pied
I visited last Thursday, all five of us doctors who eat out regularly - so no comments about our eating/educational background please.
While the food we found to be generally acceptable, we arrived at 8.30pm and didn't finish our meal until 11.15pm due to the protracted wait between courses. One out of us didn't order a main course and therefore didn't actually receive any food until 9.45pm. And we weren't dawdling over our starters.
What I found astonishing was that there were no vegetarian dishes at all on the menu. Chef did accomodate the non-meat eater in our party but the report on this was not favourable. "A mushroom mush" I think were the words used.
So here's my honest critique of L'Autre Pied. Would I be rushing back - hardly. But if you all see a backlash of a series of reviews now all defending the restaurant and trying to pick holes in my account, make your own judgement.

Millbank Spice
I felt I had to write to redress some of the negative reviews below. Two girlfriends and I had a very enjoyable evening here last Friday. I love my food and in my opinion Millbank Spice is definitely a cut above the standard curry house.
We ordered some Chef's specials not usually found on most menus, as well as the traditional favourites . I could really taste the spices in our King Prawn dish (I'm afraid I can't remember the name of it - Asahi?) which was dressed not too heavily in an well flavoured but original and unusual sauce with large butterflied King Prawns. No little frozen shrimpettes for us! Chicken Tikka Masala was creamy and tasty and unlike many Heinz Tomato based sauces that I have had in the past. Luckily we had some excellent Peshwari Nan at hand to mop it up.
Service started off brisk and a little curt, but I think this was no different to the standard of Asian efficiency found in most restaurants. In fact, we went on a major charm offensive to coax a smile out of our waiter; once he realised that we were enjoying the food and was there just to have a good night, he relaxed and became much more friendly
Highly recommended and we will definitely return. Extremely good value as well. Between three of us we had poppadums and a shared starter, 3 mains and 1 side, rice and nan, and 3 pints of beer for £22 each including tip.

I really love this place. I eat out every week, usually somewhere outrageously expensive and more often than not go home disappointed. I haven't been so pleased with myself since discovering Asakusa. I hate the hackneyed term "hidden gem" but I'm struggling find other words that describe it as well.
It is located at the dingier end of Camden just around the corner from Mornington Crescent tube. The service could be more charming but is functional and efficient. And the decor isn't going to be featured in Homes & Gardens Magazine in this life or the next. But who cares when the food is this good.
Lightly battered tempura how it should be, tasty tender black cod and succulent spice simmered belly of pork were just a few of the dishes I would recommend. Sashimi is very fresh with a great variety in their mixed set. With a serviceable bottle of Sauv Blanc, £26 per head. Can't beat it.

Given the choice between having dinner at this place or something that you'd need a healthy shot of penicillin for, after Friday night's experience, I would be tempted to punt for the latter.
I will give them some credit. My vanilla and passion fruit mojito was the highlight of the night and the music was a laugh. Drink and dance here by all means but NEVER be tempted to eat.
Having seen some of the ghastly reviews on Floridita, I was seriously considering bailing out after one of my colleagues organised a night out here. And I would have done so if it hadn't been the leaving do of one of my friends.
We were sat down for nearly an hour before any food hit our table. Crab croquettes were mainly potato, and my suckling pig was not just dry but arid. Dessert was passable but barely memorable. Coffee was lukewarm and did not come with chocolates as described. For this we were charged an exorbitant £45 per head + service.
Good company should have made it a good evening but a dampener was put on the whole evening when the bill arrived. £62 per head for a very mediocre meal and the equivalent of 2 glasses of wine per person. Beware if you are thinking of booking a party here. Our table was booked for fifteen and we were charged full price for the 3 who didn't turn up. I would be more understanding if this had been around Christmas time but not on a wet weekday in January. If I had been on my own I would have argued strongly for knocking the service charge off given that it had been pretty dire all night, but didn't want to further embarrass and ruin what was left of my friend's leaving do.
So be warned that this place is not kind to either your stomach or your wallet. Run for the hills if anyone you know suggests going here.

About Thyme
My fiance and I live in Pimlico but rarely eat out locally choosing usually to go further afield. However, it was a cold Monday night and having previously had a good experience at About Thyme decided to give it another go. They were clearly very busy on the night with a large party upstairs but at no point did we feel anything but well looked after.
The food itself was well cooked and the fresh ingredients used were reflected in the clean flavours. For starters I had courgette flowers stuffed with mozzarella and my fiance, beef carpaccio. Both were delicious as were the partridge and quail that we had for mains.
After our main meal, Izzy the owner whom we had never met before came and chatted to us about his fresh food philosophy which was evident. A friendly and welcoming gesture which was much appreciated.
I can see that some of the review below are negative but I can only say that we haven't had such a relaxing and enjoyable night for quite some time. Perhaps people who haven't had as good an experience as us feel more of an urge to leave reviews than others who go away fully satisfied. I would recommend About Thyme and that you try it to make up your own mind.

Very fresh food lovingly crafted and presented. I had some reservations after reading some of the other reviews but my anxiety was firmly displaced after trying the 10 course taster menu last night. This is by far the best Japanese food I have had in the UK. The service was a little rough around the edges but charmingly so.
I thoroughly enjoyed it but I did visit with two strapping men who seemed less enamoured of the meal than I. The 10 courses did take some time to wind their way to us and although exquisite, some of the earlier courses are no more than a mouthful each. The later dishes are slightly more substantial but by that time my companions were only half joking about sending out for chips.
Clearly each course takes time to prepare and culinary artistry rather than quantity is the name of the game. My advice is not to go ravenous to Atami or to expect a huge carbohydrate comfort feed otherwise this may end up taking the edge off your evening. Quite pricey but worth it.

The ADDAC111 ULTRA .WAV PLAYER is the long waited upgrade to the praised ADDAC101 .WAV PLAYER. While keeping all functions of the original, there's more dedicated controls as well as a few new functions. For this version ADDAC chose to use Micro SD Cards, this decision was made in order to help the hardware construction and make it only 3cm deep.
The .Wav Player basic principle of operation is simple:
The Loop Size, Start Point and Sample Rate defines how the loop is played.
Loop Settings defines if sample is looping or playing only once.
File Access if it advances to the next or previous file.
The VCA section controls the overall volume of the module.
And finally the Envelope Follower generates a CV voltage related to the amplitude of the audio signal pre-VCA.
An Expansion module, ADDAC111B, was also created to allow users to recall the first 8 files through dedicated trigger signals. This allows sequencing of files.
- Dedicated controls for file selection:
- Individual skip with state (up or down)
- Independent random gate in
- CV input (all files mapped to 0-5v, allows sequencing of files)
- Dedicated loop settings state (one shot / loop) with external control
- Dedicated sample rate on/off state with external control
- Sample rate now also allows bipolar inputs
- Implemented 1v/oct sample rate, from -4 to +1 octave,
- Implemented loop points feature, which can store a loop inside a loop or a an independent loop also with external control, operates like dj cd players loop function, press 1 marks loop start, press second time marks end point and starts looping. With on/off state and external control.
- The expansion also allows instant skip to the first 8 wav files in the card, allowing gate sequencing wav files.

text: Yes, I know. I've got another build on the go before I finished my much awaited headless 6 string build. I like to work on the headless bass, but I'm waiting on some custom pickups from SGD... Sooooo, in the meantime, I started working on this. Basically it started as a bassVI but with strings being exy and just hardwork, I changed my plan over to a regular 6 string... only shorter scale... and multiscale. P.s. the "coffee table" comment is a reference to what some peop's call handmade, multi-laminate basses. Specs; Top - scrap silky oak Core - old sunday school pew Kauri pine, also scrap Back - Mango panels from an old desk Neck - 3 piece vic ash and red maple stripe Tuners - Korean Wilkinson rotomatics Bridge - chinese single 'monorail' type elements PUs - Wilkinson MM6 or Barts, who knows... Thus far I've only spent money on a few bridge pieces and the tuners. Hope to have it finished by Christmas, but who knows.

Nice facilities but difficult car parking
We checked in for 2 days.when we were escorted to our room we through a smelly foyer with a stagnant stench . The carpet is totally stained . We spent the first night with absolutely no air conditioning functioning . Being a patient person , I suffered through the night and advised the housekeeper and the front desk that we had no AC .We returned to the room late afternoon and the reception told us everything was working properly . It was still not working , the maintenance people had left and the management wanted to move us to another room for the 2nd night . I became upset when the manager offered us breakfast the following morning after having been inconvenienced for 2 days . I refused the offer on principle , considering that we were paying $400 a night for the room . I will never return .
Everything went well!!
As our three-week trip to France was coming to an end, we splurged at this spa-type hotel for two nights. A great find--a grand old European beachfront hotel spa services, including some amenities free to all hotel guests. We took advantage of the steam hammam and the saltwater therapy tub with high-pressure jets that sprayed streams of warm water on different parts of the body. There were indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, and it was fine to walk around the hotel in your robe and slippers. Our room was in a modern addition to the hotel, and it was newly refurbished and well-designed with a balcony, plenty of lighting and outlets for our electronics, lots of practical storage space, good wifi, and a separate WC. Service was what you'd expect in a luxury hotel. We paid an extra charge to garage our car, and when we wanted it, the concierge brought it up for us and then parked it when we came back. One caution: This is a beachfront hotel that is a brisk 20-minute walk along the seawall to the Saint Malo town center, a World Heritage Site well worth a few hours of exploration. We ate restaurants outside the hotel, but the hotel has three restaurants. We had the breakfast on our final morning, and it offered a lot of variety.
We booked a city-view room, but for some reason (?), we were up-graded to a sea-view room which was large, beautiful, clean and comfortable. The staff was extremely helpful & efficient whether it was for valet car service or special requests such as an ironing board. The hotel is located at the begining of the promenade that lets you stroll sea-side directly to the old town. Very nice stay!

It was reported in our local paper, STAR Tribune on Minneapolis. They got the
story off one of the wire services.
The study involved a number of diffrent items involving farming.
They looked at three diffrent types of farming:
Organic- No man made chemicals
Standard - Minimal use
Chemical intensive- Synthesized Fertilizers and pesticides
The Organic and the standard farming practices produced the same amount of
green house gases across the production spectrum while the Chemical intensive
farming produced the least amount of green house gases.

Profile (French), SFSO statistics
Saubraz is a municipality in Switzerland. It is located in the district of Morges, in the canton of Vaud.
Saubraz is first mentioned in the 13th Century as de Salubra. In 1251 it was mentioned as Saubra.[3] The town formed around a church, which belonged to the Premonstratensian Abbey Lac-de-Joux (L'Abbaye) and burned down in 1251. After Bern conquered Vaud in 1536, Saubraz shared in the fate of Aubonne and 1701 it became a part of the Aubonne administrative district. After the breaking up of the Ancien régime the town was a part of the canton Léman from 1798 to 1803 during the Helvetic Republic. It subsequently was absorbed by the canton of Vaud and in 1798 assigned to the district of Aubonne.
The chapel which had been built on the ruins of the medieval church was cleared away during the building of a school house in 1899. Today Saubraz is part of the Gimel parish.
Saubraz has an area, as of 2009[update], of 3.7 square kilometers (1.4 sq mi). Of this area, 1.71 km2 (0.66 sq mi) or 46.2% is used for agricultural purposes, while 1.69 km2 (0.65 sq mi) or 45.7% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 0.26 km2 (0.10 sq mi) or 7.0% is settled (buildings or roads), 0.01 km2 (2.5 acres) or 0.3% is either rivers or lakes and 0.03 km2 (7.4 acres) or 0.8% is unproductive land.[4]
Of the built up area, housing and buildings made up 1.6% and transportation infrastructure made up 2.2%. Power and water infrastructure as well as other special developed areas made up 2.7% of the area Out of the forested land, 43.8% of the total land area is heavily forested and 1.9% is covered with orchards or small clusters of trees. Of the agricultural land, 32.4% is used for growing crops and 13.0% is pastures. All the water in the municipality is flowing water.[4]
The municipality was part of the Aubonne District until it was dissolved on 31 August 2006, and Saubraz became part of the new district of Morges.[5]
The municipality is located at the foot of the Jura Mountains near the Col du Marchairuz road.
Saubraz is located at an elevation of 687 m (2,254 ft) above mean sea level (AMSL), 13 km west of the city of Morges. It is a farming village sprawled across a plateau in the Jura Mountains between the valleys of Saubrett in the south and Toleure in the north.
The creek Saubrett and its tributary Toluere drain the eastern part of the area into the Aubonne river. Toleure forms the northern boundary of the municipality. The plateau Saubraz is located between the two creeks; it gradually rises to the Jura Mountains in the northwest. The highest point in Saubraz is located at 810 m (2,660 ft) AMSL at the foot of Mont Chaubert. In the south, the municipality's woodland area 'Bois des Ursins rises to the Ursins Plateau.

I have had chronic hip/ buttock/ lower back "pain" for the last 10 months. I have quoted pain because it is not debilitating. I still have full function of my right leg however it feels as though all of the muscles from the bottom of my butt to the SI joint are constricted. At times even my back muscles (on the right side) feel tight. If I do go for a run my right hip will physically raise to a higher position and my muscles will feel worse. I check hip heights before and after to be certain, after the run it becomes visually noticable. The V at the lower abdomen is more prominent on the right and is higher than the left. I have had MRIs of the lumbar spine, pelvis, and right hip (with dye). the only feedback was a "possible" labrum tear on the right side. my symptoms do not match this at all though and i am skeptical of surgery at this point. i am curious if anyone has had a similar issue and or could give me an accurate description of their labrum tear symptoms. since the issue worsens with running i have been force ld to take a dreaded break. any info that might get me back on the road would be greatly appreciated.
Have had similar but on left side - diagnosed as sacroiliac upslip. Perhaps you've already eliminated this possibility? My pain was acute and debilitating. Barely able to walk, I went immediately to see a pelvic specialist physio at Londonphysio. Treatment once realigned (I practice Iyengar yoga - it helps enormously) is deep massage to soften muscles in spasm. I've not tried running again yet (still mild discomfort in sacroiliac and hip) but will get advice tomorrow from the physio. She wants to analyse my running gait. I was recently advised by a trainer to change my technique by bringing my elbows in more to avoid less torso swing. The physio thinks the change may have brought on the upslip.
I will certainly have to look into the potential upslip problem. My pain will be in different locations each day. For instance I will have pain in my SI joint region, the buttock, or the outer part of the hip. I is a deep pulling pain as though the muscle is being pulled. I'll also try out yoga for the next week or so and let you know how it goes. I know that my ortho will recommend surgery for a labral tear, but i was also considering a couple deep tissue masages before taking such a drastic approach. I personally believe I have an issue with tightening back muscles and hip flexors and am trying to work out those issue. I am curious to know how your symptoms progress and what has worked for you. If you wouldn't mind keeping me updated that would be excellent. I will let you know how my treatment(s) work as well.
yes my pain moves around too. Precisely in the places you mention. Deep tissue massage certainly helps resolve muscles going into spasm. I've just bought a foam roll in the absence of a permanent masseuse or physio, to attend to the ITB tendon and the piriformis, both of which seem to be very sore. If you go to yoga and you've not been before, go to a beginners class with a certified Iyengar teacher and explain your injury. Iyengar works very much on skeletal alignment.

Courtney Love Talks Miley Cyrus & Katy Perry's VMA Performances
She's not exactly the most stable rock star out there, but Courtney Love still loves to share her opinions on pretty much everything.
While attending a Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week book event this week, the "Celebrity Skin" singer weighed in on two of pop's hottest acts at the recent MTV Video Music Awards- Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry.
Of Russell Brand's ex-wife, Courtney noted, "I'm gonna be honest, Katy Perry bores the [bleep] out of me. She's a nice girl; she just really bores me."
However, Cyrus was more to her liking- "You know, that hillbilly Miley Cyrus is sort of punk in a weird sex way. She was at least kind of punk rock, you know? It was openly sexual… like dark and hillbilly and [bleeped] up."
As an added bonus, Love also shared some insight on Robin Thicke- "Can someone inform me who Alan Thicke's son is? Like what? Wasn't [he on] 'Charles in Charge?' That's like Jared Leto trying to convince me he's a rock star."

Munnings was one of the colts which helped put Speightstown on the map. Having achieved the second-highest price of $1.7m at Calder in February 2008, Munnings quickly established his merit, making an impressive winning debut over six furlongs at Saratoga in late July. He went on to be placed in both the Gr.1 Hopeful S. and Gr.1 Champagne S. At three he had more than five lengths in hand when he took the Gr.2 Woody Stephens Stakes and then defeated older sprinters in the Gr.2 Tom Fool Handicap. Munnings held his form well and was back in the winner's circle after the Gr.2 Gulfstream Park Sprint Championship at four.
Now Munnings is playing a leading role in establishing Speightstown as a sire of sires. From a first crop sired at only $12,500, Munnings has sired a highly impressive percentage of black-type winners, with triple Gr.1 winner I'm A Chatterbox heading his team of four Graded winners. He also already has six black-type winners from a smaller second crop. That's 16 black-type winners – an inspirational 10 per cent – among his first 165 foals!
He sired his first Gr.1 winner, that fine filly I'm A Chatterbox, from a grand-daughter of DANZIG. Speightstown sired the Gr.1 winners Jersey Town and Seek Again from mares by BELONG TO ME and DANEHILL and also has Graded winners out of daughters of DANZIG, DAYJUR, HONOR GRADES and SEA HERO.
Speightstown has Gr.2 and Gr.3 winners inbred 3×3 to STORM CAT and Munnings has already sired the Gr.2 winner Om from a grand-daughter of STORM CAT, creating 4×3 to STORM CAT. Munnings has a Gr.2 winner out of a mare by GIANT'S CAUSEWAY's brother FREUD.
Munnings' early results suggest he has a future with mares descending from SADLER'S WELLS and his close relative NUREYEV. He has a Gr.2 winner with a dam by EL PRADO, plus Listed winners with dams by EL PRADO's sons MEDAGLIA D'ORO and BORREGO. Munnings has another Listed winner with a dam by Sadler's Wells' son PERFECT SOUL. There is another with a dam by THEATRICAL, a son of NUREYEV.
The NIJINSKY branch of the NORTHERN DANCER male line also comes into the picture, as Munnings has a Gr.3 winner with a dam by SKY CLASSIC.
Speightstown has several top winners inbred 3×3 or 3×4 to MR PROSPECTOR, including Travers winner Golden Ticket and Gr.2 winner Heart Stealer. Munnings already has Listed winners from the UNBRIDLED and FORTY NINER branches.
Speightstown has Gr.3 winners out of mares by three different sons of SEATTLE SLEW, including A.P. INDY. Mares by PULPIT, MINESHAFT and MALIBU MOON all create 4×4 to Mr Prospector and TAPIT mares could also suit.
BLUSHING GROOM sired the second dams of Speightstown's Gr.1 winners Seek Again and Lord Shanakill, and he also has stakes winners out of daughters of MT LIVERMORE, RAINBOW QUEST and PEAKS AND VALLEYS. Munnings' Gr.3 winner No Problem has a dam by BLUSHING GROOM's grandson ORIENTATE.

Trouble With Pain Part 2
From the floor I saw Swarm raise his index and middle finger above his head and made a follow-them gestures. A chopper appeared and several people leaped out. They looked pretty much the same, all short hair but there eye colours were different.
Each one carried an assault rifle and there were about thirty.
"These are my clones, everyone in the same squad has the same power!" his high, creepy voice called.
I raised my hands towards the chopper. The blades began spinning out of control, picking up some of the clones who flew straight into the manic blades. I sent the chopper careering towards Swarm who flung himself out of the way of the explosion.
Focusing on the flames, I enhanced the heat and kinetically moved them towards more clones, scorching them to crisps, until the flames burnt themselves out.
I got up as they pointed their guns at me. When they shot, their bullets set on fire.
I made a sweeping gesture and the bullets stopped short of me. They span around me in a kinetic tornado and flew back, hitting several of the clones.
Shade appeared behind one and sliced the back of his neck, disappearing and reappearing in front of more.
I moved my discs into the centre of the group. Electricity crackled and jumped towards them from pylons and generators nearby. Each disc flew towards a clone, over their heads and shot out their electricity.
I hadn't been watching Swarm who pointed at me. I was crippled with pain as several of the few remaining clones shot at me.

"We need a preventive plan to ensure safety," he added. He expressed shock and grief over the deaths and extended condolences to the bereaved families. The Chief Minister is cutting short his New Delhi trip and rushing to East Godavari to reach the accident spot this afternoon.
Union Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Dharmendra Pradhan is also expected to accompany Chandrababu to the accident site. Naidu spoke to AP Deputy Chief Minister N Chinarajappa and East Godavari district Collector Neetu Prasad over phone and directed them to provide best medical facilities to the injured. Chinarajappa, who has reached the spot, said that a comprehensive inquiry will be conducted in the incident.
"The state government will conduct a comprehensive inquiry into the GAIL gas pipeline blast in the district. All help will be provided to the blast-affected persons," said Chinarajappa, who is also the state Home Minister. He directed the hospitals where the injured were admitted to provide better medical facilities for their speedy recovery.
Meanwhile, GAIL Chairman B C Tripathi said rescue and relief operations are in progress at the mishap site in Nagaram village, according to a senior GAIL official in Rajahmundry. "The exact cause of the blast was not immediately known. After an inquiry only we will get the details and cause of the blast," Tripathi said, as quoted by the GAIL official.

Beauty // December 17, 2012
You know that feeling you get when you first leave the salon after a great haircut? The one where you want to run into everyone you know (especially exes) or maybe go out on the town and show it off? I bet you also know the feeling of walking out with a bad haircut as well, huh? Where you want to go buy Target's entire selection of hats or maybe call in sick for a month? Well, if you want to avoid ever having that bad feeling again you should stick to cuts that flatter your face. By basing your cut on your face shape you can find what works best for you. Here is some celebrity style inspiration to help you figure out which is the best style for your face shape:
Round Faces
For a round face you want to find a style that elongates and slims. A simple mid-length bob with little volume is perfect. Also, a piecey pixie cut brings focus to your eyes and cheekbones. Ginnifer Goodwin wears this look perfectly.
Round Faces
If you want longer hair, long layers below the chin and wispy bangs elongate the face and add flattering angels. Zooey Deschanel shows a great way to style bangs to make your face look longer and more lean.
Quick Tip: Avoid center parts; they tend to emphasize a full forehead.
Square Faces
For a square face it's best to find styles that downplay the sharp angles of the jawline. Long and straight hair with feathered bangs and light layers soften square angles. Beachy waves add depth and will bring focus to the layers and not to the jaw line. This look worn by Lea Michelle softens her sharp angles.
Quick Tip: Avoid heavy bangs that accentuate the square shape.
Oval Faces
For an oval face you want to find a style that draws attention away from the long jawline. Center parts with curved bangs shorten the length of the face and the curve of the bang brings focus to the eyes. Just look at how the deep blue of Liv Tylers eyes are brought out by the cut.
Oval Faces
Or maybe try a shaggy bob like Emily Blunt which looks great on longer faces.
Quick Tip: Avoid lots of layers because they will overpower natural angles and make the face look long.
Heart-Shaped Faces
For a heart-shaped face you want to focus attention downward, away from a full forehead. A chin length bob like with blunt bangs does this perfectly. Christina Ricci shows us exactly how it's done.
Heart Shaped Faces
Also, deep, low volume side parts like the one seen here on Reese Witherspoon accentuate the cheekbones without making the look feel too top-heavy.
Quick Tip: Avoid any style that brings the focus to a bare forehead such as a center part or harsh, choppy layers.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Accenture (New York, NY) in May 2017.
I have been through HR screen, behavior interview , technical interview and face-to-face MD interview in New York. Every single interviewer was very professional and easy to communicate with. Now I am waiting for result. Does anybody know if HR will call if you are rejected or they will only call if they make an offer ?

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture.
I was referred from a current employee which DEFINITELY helps. After you apply and are one of the ones contacted, this was my experience:
1. Screening call with HR recruiter- talk about role, experience, etc. Not too much into the details. DO NOT share your current or previous salary as you run the risk of being low balled (good advice for any role) Chances are this place pays a lot more than your current role anyway, but if you share your current salary, they will likely offer just a little more than what you are currently making.
2. Call with my boss (via phone as they were in another location)
3. 2 different calls at different times with 2 others on my team.
4. Final call with Senior Leader Team member (main boss of the group) to assess culture fit.
5. Offer letter.
Entire process took about 3-4 weeks. Sometimes they are slow with the follow up.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6+ months. I interviewed at Accenture.
Lengthy and opaque at times. Initial HR screens seemed very scripted and almost artificial. "Tell me a situation when you ... " blah blah. Later rounds were much more pragmatic and useful. There is a ton of variation in interview styles and desired outcomes, so make sure you understand the interviewer.
Interview Questions
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Accenture in September 2015.
I have been contacted twice in the last year by Accenture recruiters both internal and external, one of which led to two phone interviews with senior people (partner level). These conversations reinforced the impression I have had of Accenture over the years but nevertheless shocked me with the overall arrogance of the people I spoke to. The internal recruiter I first spoke to was personable and positive and indicated that my skills and experience based on what he's seen over the years were exceptional. He referred me to two hiring managers, one who I realized I knew someone who had worked with him at another company so his reputation preceded him. He was distracted and unprofessional, complaining about changes to the compensation plan. He asked virtually nothing about me and talked about himself and how great his career was and how lucky Accenture was to have him. The other woman I talked to was nice, friendly but somewhat unfocused in her approach and again spent a great deal of time talking about herself and how she had acheived her role. I got the feeling that the first person had unconscious bias. Later the recruiter sent me a terse message from an anonymous email ID that essentially insulted me by saying the interviewers didn't think I had what it takes to close deals for them. I've been in this industry for a long time and had my share of interviews over the years and I can't say I've ever received such a blunt and inappropriate follow up message. It was an automated form message and I'm not thin skinned. It was just rude. It didn't matter to me since they were recruiting me not vice versa and since I am confident in my track record of working at very similar companies and selling very large deals (20 to 30m) over the years, time and time again. I was just shocked that a company this well known for their progression employment practices including increasing the number of women in senior roles, would be so haphazard in their approach.
My second experience was more recent when another retained external recruiter called me about a similar role for which I am extremely well qualified. I agreed to talk to her even though given my last experience my interest was low. She seemed to take the same approach, looking for reasons not to include me in.the exclusive group of candidates she said she already had. I have never had a recruiter say that either in the process - it seemed to be intended to make me feel lucky that she was even talking to me and to heighten the competition. She probed into my background and then hurriedly said that unless I was doing exactly the kind of role that she was recruiting for, at this time, they wouldn't consider me (even though I have a long track record in that kind of role ). At that point, it didn't really matter as it has reminded me of the corporate culture that seems to shine through in my dealings with them.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Accenture (New York, NY) in March 2015.
3 phone screens, then traveled to meet the managing director. Meeting went well enough but no answer for several weeks. You just wait. And wait. If they decide to call you - or you call them - it will be like they don't even know you. Cold, impersonal, sloppy, and unprofessional.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture (New York, NY) in January 2015.
With a total six interviews, Accenture's interview process is rather structured. More specifically, there were: 1 HR, 1 Behavior, 2 Tech skills, and 2 In-person (NYC) interviews. Each interview was about one hour long that always started with outlining the flow of the interview. The specific questions were general in nature however, the interviewer always probed for a deeper understanding. The probes were aimed at understanding and not to throw and curve balls. It was a good and interesting experience.

Last weekend, the Creighton women's basketball team (6-6) traveled to Las Vegas for contests with Oregon State, Clemson and UNLV as part of the Duel in the Desert.
The Bluejays won their first and third games in the tournament, finishing 2-1 on the weekend.
Thursday, December 19 v. Oregon State (6-3) W 70-62: In the first of three games at the Cox Pavilion, Creighton used hot shooting and solid defense to defeat the Beavers of the PAC-12. Sarah Nelson (25) and Marissa Janning (22) combined for 47 of the team's 70 points. As a whole, CU shot 44.9 percent in the game, which included 48.1 percent in the first half. Jim Flanery's squad took a 35-21 lead to the break. The lead was protected thanks in part to free throw shooting to the tune of 17-of-24 after the break. In the game, the Jays finished 24-of-34 compared to OSU being just 5-of-9. Nelson was 8-of-11 from the field, 9-of-12 from the free throw line and added nine rebounds in the game.
Friday, December 20 – v. Clemson (7-4) L 56-52: Unlike the first game, shooting and getting to the line were much tougher against the Tigers out of the ACC. Creighton, who trailed by as many as 12 in the first half, narrowed the deficit to five at the break thanks in part to eight points from Brianna Rollerson, who finished with 10 points and eight rebounds. Clemson held the Bluejays to 32.3 percent shooting from the field and 2-of-14 from beyond the arc in the first half. The second half Nelson found her stroke, scoring all 11 points in the second half alongside Janning who had five of her nine in the final 20 minutes. CU never led, but the Jays did get to within three points late before missed shots disabled Creighton from taking advantage of some late Clemson miscues.
Saturday, December 21 – v. UNLV (3-9) W 66-56: The Jays wrapped up the tournament against the host Lady Rebels on Saturday, while looking to go 2-1 on the weekend. UNLV sprinted out of the gate, shooting 46 percent and leading at intermission. Nelson and McKenzie Fujan both were in double figures in the opening half to support the Jays' offense. CU rallied and took the lead with 13:09 remaining. From there, the Bluejays never looked back after a Fujan jumper made it 48-46. The biggest lead came after an Alexis Akin-Otiko free throw increased the gap to 15 points. Fujan finished with 17 points; Nelson added 15, and Janning chipped in 11 points to lead the offense.
Next up: On Saturday, BIG EAST Conference play begins at D.J. Sokol Arena, as the Villanova Wildcats (9-1) come to town for a 2:05 p.m. contest. The game can be heard on 1180 Zone2 with Brad Burwell and Rob Simms on the call.

For anybody still here ready to start writing in November, I have participated (and met the write 29:09 of songs challenge) since 2012. Now I am a moderator at NaSoAlMo. It is a lot quieter there than here, and mainly for solo projects (but no one really is checking). So don't expect the big warm and fuzzy community of FAWM or even 5090. But hey, I'm there to write songs. If you are interested, check out the website http://nasoalmo.org
Need more songwriting? National Solo Album Month (NaSoAlMo) is live!
Intriguing but I must pass on account of my NaNoWriMo ML duties.
Last year I started and album that I still need to finish.... but this year I might do some hurried post-punk songs just to do them... maybe.
While on 5090 site:
Nice Bandcamp page you got there AG. Nice setup. Maybe, if knew ahead of 5090... wudda uzed dem to start with and geterdunn.
But, that's not for prior started, all new, end to end it seems.
I see, read perfectionism is not the point..., yes, it couldn't be with me... I have so much ambient noise, well, for recording. It's pretty quiet here, but not when powered mics are on, and, etc.
Maybe, I'll observe... -- glad u posted this. Who knew this stuff exists/ed : ) Wow, solo, album quality in 30 days... that's tough. An album is like, 8 tracks min, 10-12 average, 15 songs so they don't feel cheated : ) and all award winners too, no "fillers".
Just read the FAQ, -- I see... just do it! : )
While on the Roctober site forum:
And, hmmm, that's a little confusing... I respond on 5090, but shows in Roctober too... (logged in, since just checked the Album site), --hope, no one gets confused since may look like I'm here, and not, --and have no idea if responded to in Roctober context, but still speaking 5090 context -- Considering the confusion cited in posts in same Website : ) in prior times of this subway ride : )
Thanks AG, -- I am here on 5090 using the profile list, to go down, as an index to work against. (So, no one should get confused in, "Roctober", etc., -- not really over there, so to speak.)
It's what I did on FAWM..., although, found the navigation changed in an unusual way after a time... , guessing will happen here at some point, -- loose specific navigation.
If I leave it all "here" (5090), then, I'll better get through it all. I am taking "chunks" of ~5 songs. I've eliminate, and relinquished back to Notes (who knows...? : ) ... I think I have 1 I like-like, and one I'd play as filler in the first ~10.
If I get 5 I like-like in the end, then I have, maintain a, 40 or so book, since circa '05 I've been doing "this" for myself.
There was nothing back then... -- but, a while nutha-diskushen : )
I never thought having so much material could be a deterrent, but, find it can be, -- wow... (Well this and that I did "bond" with the whole NAF flute thing... surprise to me; but anything based upon an extended scale Pentatonic scale ... "resonates", with me, -- hah!
(I got so emersed in that NAF flute stuff, I Actually started fixing, re-tuning them, -- a big issue it seems. But mostly due to folks not understanding it is, or can be an engineered instrument. I have no desire the build them. But, once folks are attached to them, they are interests in correction, fixing, not many seem to do that, AFAIK : ). See, -- another rabbit trail, omg! : )
Yeah, what the hell, I'm in.
I signed up last night under a band name with the idea of doing an album in a day. We'll see if/when I do that, but I've got aspirations.
@AndyGetch I signed up as The Dead Ambassadors this time. We'll see if it works out as planned.
I signed up as well (using the name 'mike skliar)
Not sure if it'll happen for me, but the idea i have is that as of now my last album ('Need you in november') and about half the one before (How low can we go?') were political in nature, and i'd like to write a group of completely non-political, non-topical songs .. maybe even a bunch of instrumentals? who knows,.....but something totally different then the last few. (For anyone curious, the last few have been all on bandcamp)
I am there under Michael Karns. Gonna be fun, but I have no idea where it will lead!
I have literally just this minute realised that Michael Karns = JamKar, even though I think you have the same picture of FB as on 50/90...
Brrrse is now Tasha Parker Gibbs. And I signed up.
and (partly due to nat'l solo album month, but might have done something anyway) i have two new albums out- the first is a mini-album (ep) dealing with post-election stuff, called 'love trumps hate' and its on bandcamp. The second one (also a bandcamp link, see below) is a first for me, an all-instrumental all-electronica album... https://mikeskliar.bandcamp.com/album/chill-on-chill
Happy 2017 of songwriting !
