EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Andrew Bynum saw a foot specialist Saturday and an MRI confirmed the center has a strained left Achilles tendon.
There is no tear of the tendon. Bynum will be re-evaluated in a week.
"These are the type of things that look like they're going to take some time," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We're just hoping that the time is not extended."
Bynum could not walk on the foot without the assistance of a boot when he woke up Saturday morning, according to Jackson.
Bynum said he felt relieved by the news that there was no tear.
"I just have a lot of pain in that area," Bynum said. "I'll be re-evaluated in a week. There's really not too much to say until that really calms down."
The Lakers will be in Houston in a week, preparing for the Rockets, the third game of their upcoming five-game road trip. Bynum will travel with the team rather than stay back and rehabilitate the injury in Los Angeles. Bynum said that he expected the re-evaluation to occur at the end of the road trip when the team returns to L.A. on April 1, meaning that Bynum will probably be out of the lineup for at least the next six games, counting the Lakers game against the Wizards at home Sunday.
Bynum says he is experiencing a lot of pain in his left leg from his calf muscle down to his Achilles. He is taking anti-inflammatory medicine, but is avoiding painkillers. He is also treating the injury with alternating ice and heat compression and laser therapy.
Jackson lauded Bynum's positive outlook despite having to deal with yet another injury after having both of his last two seasons derailed by knee injuries.
"It wasn't that bad," Jackson said. "He's a very optimistic young man."
Bynum joked that he jinxed himself in a recent interview by talking about the success he's had this season in staying virtually injury free but added, "I think I'll be all right though, I should be good ... I thought it was going to be worse and when they told me today it's not as bad [as it could have been] I was happy."
The 22-year-old was starting to play his best basketball of the season, averaging 20.0 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocks during the Lakers' four-game winning streak coming into Friday's game, but said he hasn't let the timing of the injury get to him.
"I'm not frustrated," Bynum said. "I just want to get back and play."
The injury occurred near the start of the third quarter in the Lakers' game against the Minnesota Timberwolves when Bynum was jogging back on defense. Bynum said he ran up and down the court two more times with the injury before leaving the court.
"I walked off [the court], so it wasn't that bad," Bynum said. "It's better than being carried off."
Lakers sixth man Lamar Odom will step into the starting lineup in Bynum's absence, but Odom is dealing with an injury of his own.
Odom has been playing with an aggravated left shoulder that he first injured 14 games ago when going up for a dunk against Boston's Ray Allen.
"It's something that I try to condition myself to play through," Odom said.
Odom is treating the shoulder with a device called the H-Wave, which emits low-frequency electric stimulation, and with regular icing.
"The part that I hate about the injury the most is that when I go to call on it, it might not answer me," Odom said. "I can go up with the basketball, make a strong move and then [the shoulder will] be like, 'No, not this time.' That's the part that aggravates me the most about it."
Odom said that he does not expect to shoot well or rebound well, adding, "But, I can still play basketball." The 6-10 forward said he will wait until the offseason to seek out further medical attention for the shoulder.
"It looks like it's going to be one of those things where he's going to have to live with it for a while," Jackson said. "We'll just have to take him out in situations where there's numbness -- that's what happens, his arm goes numb -- so when that happens we'll take him out."
Odom said he will adjust his rebounding technique to pursue the ball using both hands and worked with Pau Gasol on right-handed moves to use when his shoulder renders his left arm ineffective.
"A good game or a bad game, I won't blame it on [the shoulder]," Odom said. "It's just the way it is ... The thought process is the same. [We want to] go out there and finish these last 13 games really strong and prepare for the playoffs."

Rare 'geep' hybrid born on Irish farm
NewsFriday 04 April 2014
A hybrid animal, which is part goat and part sheep, has been born on a farm in the Republic of Ireland.
The animal was born around two weeks ago on Paddy Murphy's farm in County Kildare and has been referred to as a geep.
It is thought that the animal was born as the result of mating between a goat and one of the Cheviot ewes that belongs to Mr Murphy.
According to the BBC, he said that the cross-breeding was not intentionally done and he described the results as a "pure shock to the system" and he also went on to say that it would be a "one-off" event on his farm.
When speaking to the Irish Farmers Journal he went on to say: "I've never seen anything like him before."
Mr Murphy has been involved in sheep farming for "generations" and he confirmed that the geep appeared to be healthy and "thriving".
It was also reported to have been able to run faster than the other lambs that were born around the same time.
"He's unbelievable" said Mr Murphy, "he's so fast you'd have to get him into the pen to catch him".
During "tupping" season, five months ago, Mr Murphy said he saw a goat mating with ewes on his farm. However, he said that he had given the matter little thought until the geep appeared.
The new arrival has, however, caused a lot of laughter in the pub, when he showed mobile phone pictures of the hybrid to his customers and friends.
Apparently this is the first time that a geep had been reported to have been born in Ireland and Mr Murphy said that the animal was now developing a set of horns on its head.
A spokeswoman for Ulster Farmers Union the said the live birth of a so-called geep is a very rare event and they are not aware of any currently in existence in Northern Ireland.
She said this form of cross-breeding, on the rare occasion it does occur, is likely to involve a buck goat and a ewe.
However, the geep usually dies during the ewe's pregnancy or is stillborn.

About the Property
4 Bdr, 3 Bth, 2 Deck w/ attached garage. Sleeps 12. Gorgeous Mountain Views!
The home is spacious and comfortable. It is a 4 bedroom 3 bath home. There is also the Yellowstone Cabin available for your use (May 15 - hard frost (mid October)). It is a one room cabin with a double bed and a half bath. It is originally a cabin from Yellowstone and aside from adding the bathroom, it has been left in its original condition. You pay no extra for it and are free to use it if you wish. It is rustic, but really cute. Guests last summer loved it. The property has a beautiful grass lawn with flower beds and bordered by native vegetation and shade trees. There are two decks. The front deck gets the morning sun and is a spectacular setting to enjoy your morning coffee. The back deck is always shaded by beautiful, large cottonwood trees and overlooks Cedar Creek. There is a one car attached garage for your use.
There are endless activities in the greater Yellowstone area. You could spend a lifetime here and not see and experience all it has to offer. Yellowstone National Park offers gorgeous scenery, geysers, bubbling mud, hot springs, wildlife viewing, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, western cookouts, stagecoach rides, boating, guided fish boats on Lake Yellowstone, and many educational opportunities. Boiling Hot Springs, located between Gardiner and Mammoth,is a hot springs where soaking is permitted. It is a unique experience and definitely worth exploring.
The Greater Yellowstone area offers spectacular whitewater rafting, fishing, guided river trips, horseback riding, camping, park tours, souvenir gift shops, restaurants, bar and grills, swimming, biking, hunting and hiking. Bozeman's Gallatin Field is located 70 miles away.
There is plenty to do right from your Bar B door as well. Two miles east of the house is the historic OTO dude ranch, Montana's first dude ranch. This is a beautiful, fairly easy hike up a gravel road to the remnants of the dude ranch. The lodge and cabins have been restored to their original condition and you are free to walk around and in them or picnic on the deck.
Cedar Creek, which runs behind the house is closed to fishing as it is a native spawning stream for Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout. We are, however, only a quarter mile from the Yellowstone River which offers spectacular fishing with plenty of access through fishing accesses and high water lines. The spawning cutthroat in Cedar Creek can be seen from the bridge behind the house during July. There are also rainbow and brown trout in the creek.
This is a super location for hunters to base from as well as a comfortable place to come home to after a long day of hunting. There is hunting within walking distance from the house.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2001
About the owner: Len and Barb Thomas purchased this home in 2001. The property sits in the middle of our family ranch which has been in the family for almost fifty years. Len and Barb moved here to be close to grandkids. The grandkids grew up in a very special way with both sets of grandparents less than a quarter mile away and the distance was covered frequently. Barb was completely taken with the Cowboy and Native American way of life. Collecting old western artifacts, antiques and curios was her hobby and her method of decorating her home. We hope you enjoy them as much as she did. We celebrated many holidays and birthdays in this home and are excited to share with you the joy it has brought to our family.
Why the Owner Chose Gardiner, MT, USA:
Grandkids and Gorgeous Big Sky Country. This country is unique and has a special way of getting in your blood. This home sits in the middle of our family ranch surrounded by lush pastures, grazing cows and horses and the footsteps of many grandchildren. It is peaceful and rural. The neighbors are the very best. Sightseeing is amazing, wildlife is abundant and fishing is fantastic. The vistas are forever changing with the time of day and the seasons. We are able to enjoy the beautiful Yellowstone scenery from our picture window without the Yellowstone hustle and bustle.
The Unique Benefits at this Chateau / Country House:
We bought this home because we loved the area and all it offered. Hunting, fishing, sightseeing, rafting, and it just happened to be right where we wanted it; directly in the middle of the family ranch. It was a unique location with a house we liked. We have added many features that have made that house our home. We have put work into creating a beautiful lawn, built decks, added old Yellowstone outbuildings for atmosphere, resided the building, added a stone fireplace mantle and of course added all those Western Americana and Native American decorative touches. We are excited for you to experience what made us fall in love with this place. Please come and enjoy our home. Nothing could give us more pleasure.

Leave Fate to GalagaMature
Dustin exhaled deeply, and cracked his neck. As excited as he was for the chance to whup someone's ass at Galaga, he had to remember that there was a point to all this... The memory of the marred face were still fresh, and that app will surely speard if he didn't do something. He smiled.
And this was his way of doing something.
Dustin leaned towards the computer, his hands ready and in position on the keys. He tapped the '5' key to put a coin into the virtual machine, and slapped the '1' key to start. Time to get serious, he thought.
The ultra-iconic start music beeped and blooped from the speakers, better than anything Mozart or Bach could come up with, to Dustin at least. His red and white starship appeared at the bottom of the screen, and the immortal words flashed: "Stage 1"
Dustin used the arrow keys to move left and right, and control to shoot. Galaga was a spin off of games like Space Invaders, you moved your ship left and right, dodging the bullets of a squadron of alien ships at the top, and shot back to blow them away, winning the stage. An ancient shooter, before it meant games like Call of Duty or Halo, and they gave a different kind of thrill than those games. Three lives, and its Game Over. No regenerative health, no health at all for that matter. Three lucky shots, and you'd be digging your pockets for an extra quarter.
There was a moment of silence on the game, and then the waves of insectoid alien ships flew in from the sides of the screen to get in formation. Dustin mashed control to blast away a good portion of the menance, but they weren't even attacking yet. The aliens always waited for all of their friends to come before they started fighting back. How nice of them, Dustin thought. But he was here to blast them, not to hang out.
Greg watched, impressed, as Dustin cleared stage after stage, racking up a perfect score on two bonus stages. Dustin smirked as he wiped some sweat off his forehead. No way Greg would beat him, he thought.
The next stage came up, and Dustin realized he'd been doing this for far too long. He cringed at the thought of suicide in a game as engaging as this, but he let himself be captured a few times by the grasshopper-looking boss ships, and mercilessly shot his captive, previous lives, rather than saving them for double fire power.
Dustin leaned back, and sighed.
Hit/Miss Ratio: 87.1%
Final Score: 237,790
Greg clapped, applauding his impressive score. "Good game, Mr. Decker."
Dustin smiled nervously, and typed his initials into the highscore table.
Dustin stopped dead in his tracks. How the hell?.... No way he gets these scores regularly...
Greg readjusted his glasses. "-Yes, well, Mr. Decker, as you realize now, I didn't just make regionals... I was regional champion." He looked down at Dustin. "... And I know exactly why you wanted to face me at Galaga... A competition to set you free, I assume?"
Dustin started sweating profusely. He gulped, and slowly nodded his head. No point in resisting.
"... Well, Mr. Decker, to be honest, I love your guts... And I won't turn down a high-stakes game of Galaga..."
What the crap? Dustin thought. He's still going to fall for it? Really?
"-So, you win, I remove the charges from the mainframe... But I win, and your file-snooping hobby is exposed to Officer Jankins, got it?" Greg said in a surprisingly up-beat tone.
Dustin shrugged, a bit nervous, yet confident if Greg was going to fall for it anyway. "Sure. We have a deal."
Greg smiled a competetive grin, and hit the '5' key to put in a credit. He leaned down at the laptop, and pushed the '1' key for a single player game.
And Dustin bit his lip, because this is where it really started.
Greg breezed through stages 1 through 4 without much effort, and beat the bonus stage perfectly. Dustin couldn't bare to watch, and Greg remained calm with his competetive smirk on. Occasionally, Greg would allow one of his starships to get captured, so he could save it later to get double fire power. A strategy Dustin would've used if he knew a few minutes before what he was up against.
He finally tripped up at stage 12, when a bee-looking ship kamikaze-d straight into Greg's starship. Greg twisted his lip a bit at his mistake, but quickly regained his composure. Dustin glanced at the score.
Score: 121,040
After the multiplier, that score would be just as high as his, Dustin thought. He had to do something...
Greg annihilated another wave of the alien menance, and he leaned back for a second to relax as the score added up. Dustin nervously bit his cheek. He tried remembering the hotkeys for MAME... Particularly for the dipswitches. Greg came back to the game, so Dustin didn't try anything. Dustin continued to bite his cheek as he glanced about the closet.
It was pretty empty, save the absolute mess of cables and the racks with servers on them. Dustin spotted a pencil, a clipboard, and a broom someone had thrown in the corner. He casually strolled up to the pencil as Greg fired away at imaginary aliens, completely engrossed in the game. Normally, Dustin would respect that, but these weren't normal circumstances.
He picked up the lead side of the pencil, and made sure the eraser was still rubbery and quiet. It was, luckily for him. Dustin strolled back behind Greg quietly. Greg continued his barrage, racking points that would definitely beat Dustin's tally. Not that it worried Dustin, assuming he could pull this off.
Dustin silently and slowly slid the pencil under Greg's arm, trying to reach the keyboard. Greg continued to be unaware.
What does it take to take this guy's eyes off the screen? Dustin wondered, not that he was complaining. This was working perfectly, it was just that Greg had just completely shut down while he was playing. Dustin crouched down to get a better angle, sliding the pencil to the appropriate key.
And, the door swung open.
Greg jolted out of his trance, and quickly pulled his arms down. Dustin jumped, catching his arm in Greg's armpit. Dustin freaked out, trying to act as non-chalant as he could about the situation, nervously looking the other way and whistling as his arm was stuck firmly at Greg's side.
"-Dustin?!?" A familiar voice called.
Greg shot up, pulling Dustin with him. "-Who the- How the-?!?" He looked down at the dead weight by his feet that was Dustin, and Dustin nervously waved back. "-What the-?!?"
Dustin looked in the doorway, and to his surprise, someone he wasn't expecting was there.
"-Tracy?" Dustin tried wiggling himself free of Greg's pinning grab, and Greg lifted his arm, releasing him. "-What are you doing here?"
"What do you think? Helping you get out... Not like busting out, see, but like... uh... A witness?" Tracy rubbed her neck at the absurdity of the situation, and grinned.
Greg readjusted his glasses. "... Umm... Well, 'Tracy', we're in the middle of something here. I will not be inturrupted by... 'witnesses'. It would be dishonorable... I gave Mr. Decker my word."
Dustin heard an electronic explosion, and smirked. Greg stood there for a moment, and calmly lifted the screen of the laptop back up.
The game had been running the entire time.
And Dustin had managed to set it to hard mode.
No score multiplier.
Hit/Miss Ratio: 89.4%
Final Score: 229,110
Greg stared at the screen for a second.
"... What?" Tracy asked.
"-Shhh -shhh -shhh..." She was silenced by Dustin.
Greg let out a long, deep sigh. He readjusted his glasses once more, and stood up straight.
He turned to face Dustin.
"... I did give you my word."
Dustin's eyes lit up, like a child being told he can finally get that one toy. "... That means-?"
Greg sighed once more. "-Yes... But only because I respect you. You got guts, kid. And good taste." He looked at him and smiled.
Dustin bowed. "... Domo Arigâto, Aprils-san." He looked up, and returned the smile.
Greg waved his arm. "... Now get out of here, Mr. Decker, before I change my mind..." He leaned over to the computer and exited MAME, and opened the command prompt.
Dustin scampered through the door, and Tracy followed him. "... What's going on?"
Dustin smirked. "... We're making friends in high places. Now come on, we still got a murder to solve."

Cumberland Island offers close campsites to the ferry (Sea Camp) + 3 backcountry campsites.
Cumberland Island is surreal. Although a ferry ride is required from the mainland, it is well worth it. Hopping off of the short boat ride, you can feel that this place is something special. Live Oaks covered in Spanish Moss cover the entire island. Only a certain number of people are allowed on the National Seashore at a time so you never have to worry about overpopulated trails or campsites. The only vehicles allowed on the island are the government owned ones.
There is a trail the crosses the island to the eastern shore right at the boat landing (which is southwest), or you can continue further north up the island. To properly explore the island, a 4 nighter would be most appropriate, the island is huge!
When backpacking the island, take the ferry across Fancy Bluff Creek. Once you've made it to the landing, check in at Sea Camp, where you can be assigned other campsites around the island ranging from 5.5 to 10.5 miles from Sea Camp. The most convenient trail to the backcountry sites is the Parallel Trail.
The foliage is unreal and seeing wild horses is a magical experience. The trails are all very flat, so the miles are pretty easy. Dispersed throughout the island are ruins left over from when the Carnegie family owned the island and lived on it.
I highly recommend everyone in the US makes the trip to Cumberland at least once in their life. Make your campground reservations here.

Georgia's Jewel
After spending a year in the National Parks, my bias was warped and I gave little credit to some other NPS sites that are showstoppers themselves. Cumberland Island is one of those showstoppers. Your right up made me think of my amazing time on the island. Can't wait to go back!

Fabulous 2 Night Backpacking Trip With Our Kids
We spent two nights backpacking on Cumberland Island with our 10, 8, and 5 year old. We dropped our packs at the Ranger Sea Camp station and day hiked two miles south round trip to the Dungeness Ruins. Afterward we grabbed our packs and hiked 3.5 miles up to Stafford Beach Camp. Stafford is one of two two campgrounds with toilets (Sea Camp is the other) - which was nice with our kids. Its also close to the beach. There is water available, but it needs to be treated. The second day we hiked up to Hickory Hill, dropped our packs and walked all the way up to Plum Orchard Mansion for the tour. The house was beautiful and the hike was great. Long day for the kids (9 miles total) but they were champs. Day 3 we hiked 5.5 miles back to Sea Camp for the 2:45pm ferry back to the mainland. The Spanish Moss draped Oak Trees contrasting with the sharp, pointed, Palmetto bushes are beautiful. We also loved the ferral horses that just roam the island.

Precious Metals IRA Investors Should Expect Stock Market Crash According to TraderushReview.us.com
Traderushreview.us.com Has Reveled a Major Stock Market Crash That Will Affect the Precious Metals IRA Investors.
a. Portugal financial crisis
b. Israel attack to Gaza
c. Iraq turmoil
According to the spokesperson of traderushreview.us.com Mike Cos, he said that the reason why stock market crash will be inevitable, it's because many Young Americans 401k investors tend to claim their retirement benefits soon before there retirement age reach.
Since the last stock market crash recession which happened 2008-09, many gold IRA companies have been on the catch 22 situations and the only problem with gold IRA companies, it's that they trade at more than 25 times earnings. If investors could pick up precious metals for less than 20 times earnings, they'd be nuts not to.
Many Americans both young and old investors, live in fear of not matching to the American Dream. According to a new study put together by TRR LLC, a six-figure income is what it really takes to put all the pieces together. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, median household income between 2008 and 2012 was $53,046 per year, less than half of what the Traderushreview.us.com revealed.
Fish Mark a business analyst of Traderushreview.us.com, encourages young investors who invest in precious metals IRA, to desist from investing in bad gold IRA companies that trade more than 25 times of earnings. He goes on to say that, precious metals investors should choose the best gold IRA Company for their needs since not all of those companies are effective or even trustworthy. Nevertheless, it is still advisable to read about existing precious metals IRA rules before signing anything.
Your employer should be notified of the precious metal IRA. The IRA can then be transferred into precious metal.
This is where the gold IRA Company comes in. They offer their customers gold and other precious metals like silver and platinum as investment assets.
Glen O. Kirsh, the Executive Vice President of Asset Strategies International, Inc. in Maryland, says:
"The question is what happens when inflation accelerates in earnest and all those people with $14 trillion in paper start scrambling for a place at the gold window? The run-up will be faster than a backtracking politician. That mountain of paper will disappear like a pile of feathers in a hurricane. Only those who move in advance – or already have precious metals in their portfolio – will be able to defend their purchasing power. Aren't you glad you're one of them?"
Fish Mark goes on to say that, it's true that precious metal IRA has long term benefits, but if we don't follow financial rules, then the stock market crash will distort our investment.
TradeRushReview.us.com offers the best and most relevant instructions on how to manage your funds well and invest in financial market.

Definition of struthious
: of or relating to the ostriches and related birds
struthious was our Word of the Day on 07/09/2010. Hear the podcast!
Theme music by Joshua Stamper ©2006 New Jerusalem Music/ASCAP
Did You Know?
Struthious can be scientific and literal, or it can be figurative with the meaning "ostrich-like," as in our example sentence. The extended use suggests a tendency to bury one's head in the sand like an ostrich. But do ostriches really do this? No - the bird's habit of lying down and flattening its neck and head against the ground to escape detection gave rise to the misconception. The word struthious has been fully visible in English since the 18th century. "Ostrich" is much older. Anglo-French speakers created "ostriz" from Vulgar Latin avis struthio ("ostrich bird"); Middle English speakers made it "ostrich" in the 13th century. Scientists seeking a genus word for ostriches turned back to Latin, choosing "struthio."
Origin and Etymology of struthious
Late Latin struthio ostrich, irregular from Greek strouthos
First Known Use: 1773

How many times have you pulled away from the drive-thru of your favorite fast food restaurant only to open the bag and find they got your order wrong? You said no lettuce, but there is lettuce. You asked for extra ketchup, but there is only one packet. You ordered a large fry, but they gave you a small. It's happened enough to me that I have become cynical and insist on double-checking that I have exactly what I ordered before driving away.
When you don't get what you want, where did it go wrong? Most of the time it goes back to when you placed the order. You told them what you expected and apparently they didn't hear you because you got something different. In recent years, however, fast food places have minimized this problem by placing a screen that displays what you asked for, and then they ask you, "Does everything look right on the screen?"
Clear communication solves a lot of problems.
I'm not sure it would be very romantic to have a screen like that for our marriages that we could use to clearly communicate our expectations and desires, but it would certainly help. My wife may say, "Honey would you rub my back?" But I'm thinking, "I know what you're really trying to say." Most of us could use a little screen to clear up the miscommunication.
Everyone knows the sexual bed can be an emotional minefield. Men and women both make their share of mistakes, sometimes because we can't put things into words and other times because we take the wrong messages from a look or a gesture.
In a very erotic verse, Solomon's bride placed her order:
Awake, north wind, and come, south wind! Blow on my garden, that its fragrance may spread everywhere. Let my beloved come into his garden and taste its choice fruits. – Song of Solomon 4:16
Communication is huge.
Let me say that again in case you weren't paying attention: communication is huge. But when it comes to our sex lives, we have a hard time communicating clearly and listening carefully.
Solomon's new bride was telling him, in poetic language, just what she wanted and needed. The north wind was strong, but the south wind was gentle; this woman needed both tough and tender. She welcomed the "strong winds" to come across her garden, but some gentle breezes would be nice too.
We need to do more than simply take what we want. We need to pay attention to the needs of our spouse. The irony (and this is true in every part of faith) is that the more we give, the more we receive. Intimacy grows as we nurture one another rather than simply taking selfishly. That requires saying it clearly and listening carefully.
I know—sometimes we want to take a cue from Nike and go with a "just do it" approach to sex. Some things are hard to put into words. We worry that talking about it will make it less sexy and more clinical. You've got a surprise in store. Intelligent romance is the way to go, my friends! Talk about it. Listen to each other. Then focus on pleasing one another rather than on personal pleasure, and you're going to like how it turns out. There is no I in intimacy. Wait a minute, actually there are two. Maybe there's something to that.
Dare to talk about personal needs and ask God to give you the desire to meet the needs of your spouse. One of the prayers I pray for the bride and groom whenever I perform a wedding ceremony goes something like this: "God, may their greatest moments of pleasure come not from having their own needs met but by meeting each other's needs." The ideal attitude is expressed in the verses below from Philippians.
The way of Christ is always service, always putting one another first—even sexually.
Don't let selfishness and prideful agendas take over. Embrace true humility, and lift your heads to extend love to others. Get beyond yourselves and protecting your own interests; be sincere, and secure your neighbors' interests first. (Philippians 2:3-4)

"Details matter, it's worth waiting to get it right." said Steve Jobs. Attention to Detail - Is thorough in accomplishing a task with concern for all the areas involved, no matter how small. Details can also make the difference between a good internship and an outstanding one! Here are a few tips from Australian Internships on the importance of attention to details and key behaviours.
Key Behaviours:
• Keep a to-do-list or checklist with all the key tasks and details you need to focus on.
• Read and review your work and emails for mistakes before sending out.
• Follow instructions and procedures to make sure all key areas are completed accurately.
• Be careful and pay special attention to all tasks that you do (even if you do them often!)
• Make sure equipment is working before it is needed in a task or project.
• ASK QUESTIONS! If in doubt ask for help or clarification on a task. Better to be sure what your requirements are from the start, rather than completing a task inaccurately.
• Eliminate every distraction possible and try to create an environment where you can create at peak performance.
• Set specific goals and review them regularly.
• Getting most important tasks done first is both the most efficient way to begin your day and a method that will encourage you to vigorously tackle other tasks.
Remember, it is better to take your time to complete a task thoroughly and accurately and avoid making mistakes!

Limited Time Trial Introduction Offer.
"It's a boy Missus Walker, it's a boy.
It's a boy Missus Walker, It's a boy.
A son. A son." -- From "Tommy" Conceptual Album by The Who
James has a surprisingly large amount of childhood memories from before she could ever talk. Mind you, she did take a little while longer to start talking. This mostly because it just simply required pointing out WHY she should have learned how to talk.
I mean--when your parents go through all sorts of troubles to go through that cupboard you pointed at screaming to get what it is you want--you really have no reason to ask for crackers. You get the crackers just fine anyways. The results are essentially the same. Except your parents are little bit less irritable if you just ask for the crackers.
For some reason, for an action that got, more or less, the desired results, but was not the typical response parents expect a child to do, the parents thought James may have been retarded or possibly slightly deaf.
I dunno--I look at it this way, if I could point in a general direction of something I wanted. And started screaming, and got it after a short amount of time screaming, I would think that I was getting a pretty good idea. As it did get the desired results--and I had to put no effort into it. Maybe I am kind of retarded, as I think most people, would also like to have this sort of gig too.
Imagine it this way. You want ice cream. So you just point to the freezer and let out a high pitch shrill. After a bit of trial and error, you find you have ice cream in front of your face. Now since you have not been given any reason to think that this method really has any flaws (I mean, you got your ice cream--and it is made of nom... except for that vaguely almond taste), why would you really be interested in doing anything different?
That is--until your younger brother points at the cupboard, and says "crackers", and gets the crackers without much issue.
Oh right, first things first, James is the first born in this family. She also has a younger brother who is about a year and six months younger.
James' memories mostly include crawling around, trying to drink the drags from various beer bottles left around that the adults seemed to really enjoy drinking from. There was rarely any drags left in them. If there was a spot in the house for her to crawl to--she would crawl there.
Other memories include one night she was feeling really sick and got some Vic's baby rub on her chest. They played some music on her Dad's stereo system that night--and were generally sitting around like well--a loving family. This is possibly one of James' most happy and serene memories of her entire life. Keep in mind, at this point she was under a fair amount of effects from various cold and flu remedies--and still very new to this world.
There was also the time that she visited her Mom's Dad. She felt weird around him. She also really did not like Mom's Dad's place. The food was weird--and generally poorly cooked. They were also way to anal about keeping the place clean. I mean, there is clean, and there is getting way too stressed out about making everything spotless and sterile.
I mean--it may have been justified if the furniture was really that nice and the food was actually fairly decent. However, this was a family of Irish people who just came over about sixteen years prior to escape various riots in Ireland. What they had so far was--quite a bit more than a lot of people in their condition. It still was not that nice--except for a few items. Most of it was cheap furniture from the 1970s--and really--they went way too over board on making certain it was spotless.
Though, when Baby James did visit her Dad's parents, she did enjoy it a lot more. That side was a lot more fun to be with. Grandpa would tell variants of Dad's stories and even a few more. While I cannot be certain if this was a later memory that James had, but well, she regales of her Grandpa taking one of Grandma's cookies (which were awesome--James wanted to learn how to make them just as good), and just putting it into his fist in front of James. Then, slowly crushing it in his hand until it was dust on the table. He pointed at it, "that is the way the cookie crumbles."
James mentions that her Dad at one point took some milk from their fridge, and poured a little bit onto the floor. And started crying. Only to tell her that this was another story that came from her grandfather.
There was the one time that she was up past her bed time, and wanted to go exploring. She was unable to go up the stairs due to a stair guard. So she went into the furnace room. This was the most scariest experience of this period in her life. The shadows that were everywhere seemed to move on their own accord. Crawling over each other. She screamed at the terror and ran to her room. Only to find Mom somehow found out about her being out of bed.
There was also the weird event where quite a few strange people showed up that occurred at a (thankfully) rare amount. Most of who she barely knew. They would sit all around a table and talk and gather. Giving James way more attention than was comfortable. There would be sweet food and gifts. When they did this for her brother it was mostly because he needed it (in her mind), as she had to go through it, so her brother had to go through it. As well--it made her feel better to be able to pass on the awkward and alarming experience onto somebody else. Though, she did like the hats they wore. Silly hats of glitter and sparkles--sometimes with ribbons attached.
She does not remember much else of this life. Really no memories of the family dog Odis--except he was there every now and then.
Her father she did not remember seeing much. When he was there he was stretching before going out for a jog. Which she would try to impersonate and copy his stretches. He also seemed to have a few drinks with friends. He was fun when played with her. Especially when he put her up on his shoulders and carried her around.
This was life for Baby James in Calgary. Until she moved to a town, in rural northern Alberta, about an hour's drive north of Edmonton. She would soon be moving to a small oil town, were she could meet a lot of new people, and make a lot of new friends.

How to compact a graph ?
A binary tree, as you have, is tough for circo, since it approximates subgraphs as circular disks since the subgraphs may be attached at any angle to the parent graph. Here, though, the input is very regular and the subgraphs are very tall but thin (or vice versa). Since circo uses the larger value, a lot of space is wasted.

How We Work with Agencies/Third-Party Care Providers
Many of the affiliated dental practices providing AFFORDABLE DENTURES® have established agency or third-party care provider relationships with government and social service organizations, nursing home and retirement home facilities, hospices, hospitals, churches and home health agencies. Organizations like Veterans Affairs often use the denture services offered by the affiliated practices to supplement the services they provide within the VAMC.
Our practices generally require payment at the time of service. However, if you have clients, patients or residents for whom your organization will be making payment, we will be glad to establish an agency relationship whereby the practice will accept organization checks or bill the organization for the services that are provided. We can also provide organizations with an approved W-9 Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification IRS form if it assists your organization in the processing of a qualified patient's payment for services.
To set up an agency or third-party care provider agreement, simply call 1-888-253-7717 or email email@example.com . They can answer any questions you have and will be pleased to coordinate the quick and simple setup process.
You may also download the form to set up this relationship by clicking here.

Mahto has declared assets worth Rs 2 crore
Mulani Devi grows vegetables in her own farm land. Ever afternoon, she plucks vegetables from the farm and sells them in the nearby market.
"I have been doing this since long. And just because my husband was an MLA, it does not mean I will give up work which gives me financial independence," she told TOI.
"On an average, I manage to earn Rs 200 per day, which I spend on my family and also save a little from it," she said.
The politician's two sons are self-employed. The family has hired labourers to work in the agricultural field.
Mulani Devi, when she is not busy with farming, goes around some localities of the constituency to ask for votes for her husband.
"She is a simple village women who looks after the cattle and does other household chores and sells vegetables in the market and has no political ambitions," said her husband, Loknath. "In fact, like any 'grihalakshmi', she also saves for a rainy day and the money comes in handy when I am contesting elections," he said.

I recently went online to make a purchase through shopyourway.com. The item was on sale but out of stock. I tried the following strategies to obtain the item and "shop my way"":
1. purchase the item in a backorder capacity to take advantage of the sale price
2. obtain a raincheck from the company representative
3. purchase the item at a store that had the item in stock and have it transferred to a store near me
4. purchase the item at a store that had the item in stock and pay the shipping charges for the store to ship it directly to me
Surprisingly, a website called "shop your way" was not able to accomodate any of these methods to help me obtain the item. This website should be called "No Way to Shop Your Way.com" as that is the reality! Good luck getting any customer service for items you want that are out of stock!

Falmouth Cutter 22 vs Allegra 24
Ahoy all,
I'm on the prowl for "the right boat" to the tune of either a Falmouth Cutter or an Allegra 24 and am curious to hear the collective wisdom to the effect of: if you had to choose one, which would it be and why?
Many thanks!
Re: Falmouth Cutter 22 vs Allegra 24
I'd choose the Falmouth simply because I love their looks. I think the Allegra has a much more spacious interior though so if you plan on spending a lot of time living on board it's probably the better choice.
As for sailing qualities and so forth, I imagine it's pretty much a wash. Both are reputed to be extremely sturdy boats, suitable for "minimum" offshore sailing.
Re: Falmouth Cutter 22 vs Allegra 24
I really like both boats and think they are each capable of more than most boats their size and several that are much larger. I haven't sailed either, but I've been aboard at the dock and think the FC22 has an amazing use of space in the cabin for such a short on-deck length. I also think the Morse-built boats show top-notch build quality and they'd be my choice among these boats.
Incidentally, I included both of these in my round up of pocket cruisers found here.
Re: Falmouth Cutter 22 vs Allegra 24
Re: Falmouth Cutter 22 vs Allegra 24
Here is an excellent blog written by a Falmouth 22 liveaboard owner preparing to go cruising. He writes very well and has many entries about his boat and upgrades. Personally, I think the Falmouth 22 is just about the only 22 foot boat that could be lived on and cruised. It's a pretty roomy boat and quite seaworthy.

Apartment in St. Mandrier sur Mer, Var, Provence - Quiet Town, 2 minute Walk to Beach
65 sq.m second floor apartment in a very well kept building. Completely refurbished interior comprising open plan kitchen/dining. Salon with TV and beautiful couch for siesta. Front balcony has sun all morning and looks onto the harbour. Listen to the tinkle of the yacht masts 25 metres away. Walk to the lovely little beach only 180 paces/2 minutes away. We have no elevator, so it's 35 steps up to the apartment. But that's your exercise for the day! St Mandrier is located on a small island peninsula tethered to the mainland by a small strip of land and one road, so it's quiet. There is a ferry every 25 minutes to Toulon which only takes 15 minutes. There are daily food markets in Toulon or La Seyne and there is very easy road access to the other well known towns and villages of the Cote d'Azur. Private parking with remote controlled barrier entrance is an added bonus. Nice is about 1hr 45mins. Cannes is about 1hr 20mins. Toulon is about 20 mins. Marseille is about 45 mins.

Wonderful Break
The apartment was in an ideal location with lovely views and easy access to the beach and marina with several good quality restaurants nearby. The apartment had all the facilities for dining in and was very comfortable. A short drive away was another lovely beach. Ideal location for exploring the sights and scenery of the South of France. Renne the local representative was extremely helpful and very nice lady. We would recommend this property.
Activity and Interests
The beach that we mention (Le Petit Plage) is used by local families and is literally out the front door, cross the road, turn left and walk for about one minute. It is a small beach but well kept and the swimming area is marked out with nets. This is also the location of the harbour offices and the sailing school. There is another very beautiful long beach at Les Sablettes, which is only five minutes away by car.
Toulon-Hyéres airport is about 30-40 mins. Marseille airport is about 1 hr. Nice airport is about 1hr 45mins. The TGV from Paris to Toulon is 3hr 30mins., A car is very handy for exploring, but we have spent several holidays here without ever using the car. Between trains and ferries it is quite easy to get around. (The Toulon-St Mandrier ferrystop is 2 minutes walk from the apartment). My mother-in-law managed on her own for five months without a car or any French . . . and she's 82!
Cassis is about 20-30 mins by car. Marseille is about 45-60 mins by car. Toulon is 15 mins. by ferry. There are many little villages and towns worth exploring, but you will need a car for this. There is a Tourist Information office in the square in St Mandrier. The island of Porquerolles is just outside the mouth of the harbour about 45min ferry ride. It's a nature reserve, no cars allowed, but you can rent bikes. Or take a ferry to Corsica for a couple of days!
Further Details:
There are supermarkets in the town, but most people would do a 'big' shop at a supermarket like LeClerc which is about five minutes by car. Also you have various food markets which are fantastic. These are at La Seyne (10 mins by car) and Toulon (15mins by ferry). There is also a food market in St Mandrier every Saturday.
