1 month post op top and bottom eyelid surgery and have a small lump formed (Photo)
I am today 1 month post op having had top and bottom eyelid surgery, the lump is in the middle of the top eyelid on the scar and is getting bigger by. My surgeon said he didn't know what it was but to massage the scar, not sure if this is correct, can anyone advise please. It is quite soft and painful.
Doctor Answers 4
Upper eyelid lump
When there is a lump in the upper eyelid incision it is usually a suture granuloma. This is a infection/inflammation around the buried sutures, or around a retained suture. Usually resolves quickly with a short course of antibiotics and some warm compresses.
Possible infection
Thank you for posting your question and photo. The problem you have following blepharoplasty could be a mild infection. Ask your surgeon if a short course of antibiotics would be appropriate. If the bump gets bigger, you might need a small procedure to correct it.
Good luck,
Good luck,

I agree with massaging as a first intervention. The scar is highly unlikely to be visible in the end. I think you can feel confident that it will most likely take care of itself unless the sutures were left in for a long time.

Small "bump" in the upper eyelid blepharoplasty incision
Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. From the limited view provided in your photo it is not possible to make an accurate assessment of what this "bump" might be. It is imperative that she continue to follow-up with your surgeon over the course of the first 4-6 months, until all the swelling has resolved. In my experience, the most common reason a patient might complain of such symptoms would be something called a milia, or small skin cyst. These can commonly occur at or near the incision site after upper eyelid blepharoplasty. In most cases milia resolve spontaneously. However, there are some additional less common problems that are not likely to resolve on their own. I would suggest that if this problem continues to worsen or does not resolve on its own and your surgeon continues to be uncertain of the cause of that you should consider getting a second opinion from another surgeon that performs a significant number of blepharoplasty procedures. Thank you again for sharing or question and photographs. Good luck!

One of the favorite parts of my job is listening to children pray. Whether they are praying for their dead fish, getting along with their little sister, or sick grandparent, their sincerity and innocence is always moving. But most of all, their simple yet profound faith in the Lord is inspirational and even convicting. Their desire to talk to the Lord and share what is on their heart is an example that needs to be followed by many adults.
I am always surprised when I hear adults say that they don't feel comfortable praying out loud in a group. The Lord enjoys hearing us speak out loud in prayer in the same way he enjoys our singing in worship and reading the Word. Of course, there is nothing wrong with praying silently, as Matthew states: "But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."(Matthew 6:4-6).But I think we need to ask why praying in front of other is difficult? Perhaps we feel like we don't know how to pray, or what words to say? Or maybe we are self-conscious and feel our words are inadequate.
Whatever the reason, let's not forsake going to the Lord in prayer. If you don't know what to pray, "the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God." Romans 8:26-27.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.

Fixes Reviews
by Bill Watson
The biggest problem with comparing import and North American cars is the fact that the imports have a longer (and more expensive) list of things to check at certain mileage/time intervals.
One magazine, for example, compared the costs of cars such as the Intrepid with cars such as the Accord. They found that Intrepid owners were complaining about the cost of repairs on their vehicles, while the Accord owners weren't. Turned out the Accord owners were, indeed, paying for repairs, but they were hidden in the semi-annual and annual check-up costs. They were having parts replaced automatically, while the Intrepid owners had the parts replaced when the cars broke down.
When the magazine tallied up the true costs, including all visits to the dealer, the Intrepid was not such a bad deal after all, and the Accord's maintenance costs were more than they were leading people to believe.
It was all a matter of PR - what the owners were, and are, literally "brain-washed" to believe. Just like Saturn's "one price, no haggling" policy. All dealers have one price - it is on the car's price sticker. If the sticker says $30,000 (plus taxes), no dealer is going to be upset if you give him/her $30,000 (plus taxes). As a matter of fact, the dealers might be so happy they would put your plates on the car for free!
Webmaster's note: what is recommended routine maintenance on a 1995 Neon? Timing belt after 100,000 miles...wires every 60,000...other than that, just check this, check that, replace the spark plugs ($6), and change the fluids.

Banking & finance law: area of practice
From simple lending structures to complex regulatory regimes, banking and finance solicitors help borrowers and lenders to navigate the often complex legal framework that underpins borrowing and lending in the global economy. The day-to-day work of a banking and finance solicitor involves drafting and negotiating the contracts that set out the terms of various debt-funding arrangements.
The nature and complexity of the contracts varies depending on the type, structure and level of financing involved. A business might require financing for the acquisition of a company or a property, or for the construction of a new solar project. Clients are diverse and cross-sector, including investment banks, large corporates and start-ups.
Transactions tend to be fast-paced – lasting four weeks on average, from taking instructions to completion. On a mid-size to large transaction, the banking and finance team will usually consist of at least one partner, a senior associate, an associate, a trainee and/or a paralegal. In smaller transactions an associate may lead the transaction, under the supervision of a partner but otherwise working with a trainee only. In addition, the banking and finance team will often be required to work with overseas solicitors on cross-border transactions.
Will you spend a lot of time at your firm's offices as a banking lawyer?
Solicitors in this area of law may be required to attend physical completion meetings but, in general, will spend most of their chargeable time based in the office. Effective communication with clients, however, remains central to the role of a banking and finance solicitor. There is frequent face-to-face client contact through business development events, which are an important part of the job given the large banks and institutions lawyers act for all use a number of different law firms.
What is the work/life balance like in this area of law?
Work in this area of law is often dictated by critical deadlines and, as with many other transactional areas, there tend to be peaks and troughs in activity. You might be working late to close a deal one week, but then have a relatively easy few days the following week, with early finishes. Secondments to clients (particularly banks) are also common in this area of law and offer a great opportunity to develop commercial awareness. While most work is carried out in the office, the international nature of banking and finance law means there are opportunities to travel to foreign offices and to visit overseas clients.
It is great working with and developing relationships with clients in this sector. It can be difficult when unforeseen issues arise, when negotiations become tense or when we have to work to an unrealistic deadline, but the continuous dialogue we have with our clients makes it easier for us to deliver practical and commercial solutions under time pressure. Our clients are frequently repeat-clients, so we have a strong rapport with them and know them well.
Are there are new developments affecting banking departments in law firms?
There is a growing focus on 'smart cities' (delivering new technologies and innovation to meet the long-term challenges arising from urbanisation). There are many unique challenges in relation to financing smart city technologies and we are working closely with our clients in this area to help them to meet these challenges.
How does the state of the economy affect banking and finance work?
Many financial institutions were badly affected in the recession. This led to a downturn in certain types of lending. The recession did, however, lead to the emergence of alternative lenders and other new entrants into this market, which has freshened up many of the lending transactions we are involved with. The impact of Brexit will not be clear until exit negotiations are complete, but solicitors in this area will need to engage with clients in order to help them to successfully negotiate this period of transition.
How much responsibility are trainee solicitors given?
Trainees play an active role in managing transactions from start to finish. Trainees are responsible for gathering information from clients and members of other teams in the firm. Working closely with other lawyers to meet deadlines and to ensure the smooth running of the completion process is another vital element of this role. This is a fast-paced seat with plenty of opportunity to take on responsibility from an early stage.
The types of law banking and finance solicitors use in their job
- Banking.
- Contract.
- Insolvency.
- Equity and trusts.
- Tax.
What particular skills do you need to be a successful banking and finance solicitor?
- The ability to build and maintain strong relationships with others, and to work collaboratively to meet deadlines.
- The ability to give prompt and pragmatic advice to clients, delivered in a commercially focused manner.
TOM BUSSY is a partner in the banking team at OSBORNE CLARKE LLP. He graduated with a modern history degree from the University of Oxford in 2001.

A homeless Bulgarian man who beheaded a British grandmother in a Tenerife knife attack will spend the next 20 years in a secure psychiatric unit.
Deyan Deyanov, 29, was convicted of murder by a jury of nine at the Provincial Court in Santa Cruz de Tenerife on Friday.
He repeatedly stabbed and then beheaded 60-year-old mother-of-two Jennifer Mills-Westley while she was shopping in Los Cristianos in the Canary Islands, Spain, in May 2011.
Earlier that day, he went into another shop and asked for a knife, saying he was going to kill someone.
After the attack, the 29-year-old tried to run out of the supermarket carrying the victim's head and shouting wildly. He was tackled by security guards.
He was high on crack cocaine and LSD when arrested, and had claimed in court that he didn't remember ever living in Tenerife, or murdering Ms Mills-Westley.
The court accepted that he committed the crime during an acute attack of the chronic paranoid schizophrenia that he suffered and accepted that he was therefore not criminally responsible.
Magistrate Maria Jesus Garcia Sanchez imposed the toughest sentence available in those circumstances.
She also ordered that Deyanov, who was sleeping rough at the time of the murder, should pay the victim's daughters, Sarah and Samantha Mills-Westley, 100,000 Euros (£86,000.)

The former New Star fund manager Patrick Evershed has dropped his £1m claim for unfair dismissal after agreeing a secret deal with the asset management firm, it was revealed yesterday.
The news was published in a short statement which reported that New Star – now owned by the Henderson Group – and Mr Evershed had reached an agreement "which resolves the employment tribunal proceedings without admission of liability". It continued: "Both parties are satisfied with the terms of the agreement and have agreed to keep them confidential."
The case – which began in November and was set to continue early next year – had been notable for revealing Mr Evershed's evidence of widespread bullying at the firm.
He claimed at one point that New Star's former boss John Duffield would prowl the firm's offices offering sweets to fund managers – before withdrawing the offer from those he thought were performing badly.
In Mr Evershed's evidence he called Mr Duffield "vile" as well as accusing him of being "angry, antagonistic and unpleasant". He also claimed Mr Duffield regularly called another fund manager "a moron and a criminal".
The court heard that Mr Evershed –a Tory grandee – lost his temper on his last day and called New Star's chief investment officer, Gregor Logan, a "despicable berk" and a "vile little runt".
New Star claimed Mr Evershed had a history of using the press and politicians for his own gains. The firm's lawyer told Mr Evershed: "The press was a tool you were not afraid to use."Reuse content

[I mentioned Vicki in my writeup of the Motogiro America event last July; she works for Ducati North America, and was the first woman to ride the Italian 'Giro. She sent me these photos from her Ducati website - pd'o]
In Italy it seems like there is always a swap meet somewhere. They pop up in town squares and out in fields like the sunflowers that seem to grow everywhere. But the really big ones are something to see, acres and acres of moto "stuff" some so rare you never thought it would be possible, all bracketed by piles of things not worth the benzina to haul them. I love the atmosphere of the dealings, the chatter in Italian, the smell of two stroke oil and sounds of motors being fired up for potential buyers. It's a photo safari as well, everywhere you look there's something to share. Oh, and the food! Best porchetta sandwiches and french fries you can imagine, sugar dipped fried dough and crepes with Nutella, it's all integral to the experience. Join me for a walk around Novegro....
The action begins in the parking lot. If I saw this in the US it would merit a 10 minute stare. Here I pass with just a glance, it's just an advertisement for the wonders inside the gate.
Once inside there are vendors for acres and acres, as well as a few large buildings full. The merchandise varies widely. Old gas tanks and really expensive brakes might not make sense as a business plan anyplace but here.
Little bikes were an industry in Italy for many years. This 50cc Malagutti, while needing a restoration to display it's full little-bike sexiness, is a good example of the sort of gems hidden in the Novegro junk pile.
Repairs are often done on the spot.
It's normal to see things that are impossibly rare [70's Bimota KB1 bodywork...]
I got my motorcycle license on one of these. It's a 125cc Cagiva Freccia, a 2-stroke Paso wanna be, if I'd seen this in the USA I would have bought it.
This photo cannot begin to do this fully restored beauty justice [Harley-Davidson Aermacchi 250cc two-stroke 'Pasolini' racer]
Quite a few Scramblers this year and most of them were nice, an indication this model has been a popular restoration choice for a few years now.
Knock, knock! Lambretta delivery.
Some vendors had better stuff than others [Love those 70's Italian colors...]
One Vespa SS90 small frame 'Dummy Tank' would be unusual. Two is a photo opportunity.
These Motobis are for some the Motogiro Holy Grail. A little hard to source parts for but the 'egg' motor bikes are fast and reliable, really perfect for 5 hard days of mountain riding.

The Glamourbaby Diaries is a film based on a writing program I created for Asian American women and women of color. It was shot and edited by Alexis Casson.
By: Ruby Veridiano
About two years ago, I came across an article on Essence Magazine written by Michelle Obama. It was a personal letter addressed to young African American women, a letter filled with compassion and guidance for the next female generation. Her words offered a road map for the journey ahead with knowledge that the world will look different for a woman of color.
Even though I am Asian-American (of Filipina descent), I eagerly read the letter because I craved those words. Aching for a mentor to help guide me towards the pursuit of my dreams, the letter left me saddened that I had never come across a letter like this for Asian American women, let alone an Asian-American female figure that I could readily identify in mainstream media.
So goes the story of my life as a first generation Filipina-American: absent of letters, recognition of my history, and a face that looked like my own. Growing up, my story was never told in movie plots or television scripts. My reflection was hardly mirrored in the magazines I devoured as a teenager, and my room was filled with magazine cutouts of celebrities that shared no resemblance to my own face or upbringing. Alas, all my life, I did not have the novelty of having a celebrity look alike.
While the search for a celebrity look alike may seem silly, the absence of one pointed to a much larger issue: when it came down to it, my version of beauty was not validated by a culture that relies on media to dictate what exists and what doesn't. I didn't see myself. I was invisible. And during those tender and formative years of my adolescence, I mistook invisible for being ugly. And the scary thing is, I wasn't alone.
In the United States, Asian-American women ages 15-24 have the highest female suicide rates among all other ethnic groups in that age range, making suicide the leading cause of death for Asian-American women in that age group (CNN). Depression runs high among young Asian-American women, and self-esteem issues are partly the culprit. As fashion icon and Richard Avedon muse, China Machado once said in an interview with New York Magazine, "We [nonwhites] had no images. We had nothing that told us we were nice-looking. Nothing. So I didn't think of myself as good-looking at all. It never occurred to me." This was coming from the woman Avedon himself called "probably the most beautiful woman in the world."
You see, Asian-American women like me come from countries where whitening creams are constant best sellers in the cosmetic industry. In Asia, skin bleaching, and in some cases, eyelid surgery (the procedure of getting eyelids sewn in to make the eyes seem wider) have become common beauty regimens. Speaking from experience, I came from a post-colonial Asian country of the Philippines, where brown women are pitted against impossible standards of beauty (remnants of a deeply embedded inheritance from the Spaniards and the Americans who colonized us). Add this history to our invisibility in American media plus the pressures to become "model minorities", plus growing up with immigrant parents who don't always understand our assimilation to American values, and the pressures come to a dangerous boiling point.
This is why, two years ago, upon reading Michelle Obama's letter, I made a decision to write my own letter: A Love Letter to the Filipina. Published on my blog, it was a gift for my sisters to let them know that I believed in them, that I loved them, that I wanted them to know something I didn't always know: that they are beautiful. Then, like Avedon, I made China Machado my muse.
Of Chinese and Portuguese descent, China became the first non-caucasian model featured on a Western publication. Her image on the 1959 issue of Harper's Bazaar redefined who was allowed to "own" the term glamour and paved the way for models of color to represent diverse shades of beauty in the fashion industry. Through her inspiration, I created a writing empowerment program called Glamourbaby Diaries, my very own personal initiative to empower young Asian-American women and other women of color to redefine glamour to encompass themes of strength, passion, and social change.
Focusing on Asian-American history and the direct intent to share the many talented (but unknown) role models within fashion, arts, and media in our community, this was my effort to help a young Asian-American woman find and own her voice, so that she can be confident enough to know that she can one day change the world (even if only in her personal world).
The Glamourbaby Diaries incorporates media, art, and fashion, with writing exercises and social issues so that participants can gain tools that build self-confidence, inner beauty, social awareness, and leadership, inspiring them to embrace their highest potential to become agents of social change. Today, on September 19th, I am releasing the Glamourbaby Diaries film to feature the vibrant voices of the young women who took part in the program. It is my honor to share it with the world today, in hopes that it will make a girl proud of herself and her potential.
This post, and this film, is yet another love letter for my sisters. I hope you know that I see you, I believe in you, and I look forward to seeing us all grow into the powerful women we are all meant to become.
With Love,
To help me continue the Glamourbaby Diaries program and mentor a new group of girls this school year, you can contribute to the Indiegogo campaign HERE.

According to my dictionary, a jamboree is a carousal or any noisy merrymaking. The Pedaler's Jamboree is all that with bicycles…a trail mix of slow riding, hanging out, eating, and drinking to a soundtrack of high-energy, Missouri-infused, live music.
The two day event begins on Saturday, May 26th, in downtown Columbia. Riders take off for a leisurely ride to Boonville via the MKT and Katy trails. Along the way are many opportunities to stop and enjoy great music and refreshments. At the end of the trail, at Kemper Park, is an evening of main stage performances, Burn Circus, more refreshments, and free camping for registered riders.
On Sunday riders will backtrack, enjoying more music and refreshments (including an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast) and an after party at Broadway Brewery, brewers of Pedaler's Jam Session IPA microbrew. I did my first Jamboree last year, but couldn't fully participate because I was desparately needed for a surprise disco party and a midnight run to the airport. I vowed to let nothing hold me back this year, especially after seeing the musical line-up:
Southern Culture on the Skids (watch for the interview!), Dirtfoot (watch for the interview!), The HipNecks (read the interview!)…
Carrie Nation and The Speakeasy, The Ben Miller Band, Brad Cunningham of Man in the Ring, Wild Cat Daddies, Noah Earle…
The Kay Brothers, Primitive Soul, We Live in Public, The BluesSlingers, and Honkey Tonk Band.
I've been collecting reasons not to attend the Jamboree and here they are:
I'm too old/I'm too young. Nope. You are not. People of all ages enjoyed last year's ride. Awesome folks from one month to 80+ were seen having a good time.
I'm not a cyclist. You don't have to be. If you don't want to cycle the trail to Boonville, you can get a pass just for the festivities at Kemper Park. You could walk the trail. You could skip the trail. There will be plenty of people on the ride who rarely ride bikes; it's not a race.
I don't have a bike. You can rent one! Try Walt's or Tryathletics or CycleXtreme, but get on it right away!
I don't like to camp. I don't like to camp either. I like to sleep! You can stay in a hotel and take the shuttle bus, or you can have your 17 year old son pick you up from Kemper. I'll be doing the latter.
What if I get a flat? There will be SAG support on the ride. You will also be surrounded by friendly, happy cyclists who are willing to stop and help a rookie.
It might rain. Yes, it might, but the show will go on. We'll all enjoy it, rain or shine.
I can't haul all my camping stuff on my bike. You don't have to! Off Track Events will do it for you; just drop it off at the registration point on Saturday morning. Do the same on Sunday morning at Kemper, and pick it back up when you get to town.
I don't own any spandex. Spandex is totally optional. It is not an option that I ever choose.
I don't know what to bring. All you need are a few things: a bike, sunscreen, and some cash. If you are camping, you'll need shelter unless you are very good at quickly making friends. Everything else you can find along the way. I plan to bring water, a camera, sunglasses, a bike helmet, food, a phone, and a change of clothes because people are always spilling beer on me.
I don't think that I can handle the ride. It sounds hard. It's not. The trail is flat and quite beautiful in places. There is one hill at the very end, but it is easy to manage. Again, it's a leisurely ride and not a race.
I want to bring my kids, but I'm worried that they won't go to sleep in the campground. Children have an awesome time on the ride, and they are totally pooped out at the end of the day. The music switches to acoustic at 10:45, so the little ones won't have any trouble settling down.
Still have questions? Check out the website for the schedule, food options, and more info on camping and registration. Early registration has been extended: You can save $10 by registering before midnight on Tuesday, the 15th. I'll see you on the trail.

Some kind of miracle
Kidnapping young girls has been a marriage custom in Ethiopia for years. More than 70% of marriages are a result of abduction.
A 12-year-old girl was abducted and beaten by several men in an attempt to force her into marriage in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Luckily, a miracle happened. The young girl was rescued by lions. Yes, you read it right.
"Everyone thinks this is some kind of miracle, because normally the lions would attack people," Sgt. Wondimu Wedajo said.
In Ethiopia, there are only about 1,000 lions due to hunters killing them for their fur and selling it for $1,000. Amazingly, the young girl was guarded by not one, not two, but THREE lions.
So, why did they help this little girl instead of turning on her? Here's why…

By DAN KARELL
Clint Dempsey has had a busy few weeks, which is likely why U.S. Men's National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has reportedly decided to make it a little less busy.
According to a report from Sports Illustrated, Klinsmann has left Dempsey off his squad ahead of the U.S. team's friendly on Wednesday in Sarajevo against Bosnia and Herzegovina. The report states that Dempsey's new Sounders teammates, Eddie Johnson and Brad Evans, have been included on the roster.
It is entirely possible that Dempsey is missing the friendly match due to a lack of fitness, having recently commented that he is still working his way back and had only played parts of two club friendly matches this summer with Tottenham.
In addition to the news about the Sounders players, the report also stated that John Anthony Brooks has been called in for the Bosnia and Herzegovina match. A development that appeared likely after Brooks was left off a German U-21 National Team he was recently called up for.
What do you think of these developments? Surprised that Dempsey was left off the roster?
Share your thoughts below.
No surprise to see any player who recently transferred left off.
I find it more surprising that two Sounders were called in. I kind of expected JK to avoid taking multiple players from one club.
Oh, I know. Poor Sounders. I wonder if a team could have three starters missing for a month for national duty and still manage to stay on top of the league?
Ha, here in KC we had 6 go during qualifiers, Kamara, Zusi, Besler, Saad, Joseph, and Jerome.
Jerome and Joseph are rotation players at best though. I think JRP is referring to RSL losing 4 starters (Beltran, Beckerman, Rimando, Saborio), including their keeper and captain, and then having their second string keeper injured along with 3 centerbacks. Not saying one is worse than the other, but both are fairly comparable
Super excited about having John Anthony Brooks on the team! I hope he stays with us. Also, holy cow is Seattle to Sarajevo a long journey for one game. My guess is that if Dempsey were still at Tottenham, EJ gets to stay home.
it really makes no sense to have evans travel all the way out to get some minutes off the bench.
Old School
Are we going to see the start of "JK left out Dempsey because he's mad at him. Fire him!" senseless hysteria?
While I don't think that's the case here, I wouldn't be all that surprised if Klinsmann gives someone else the armband next WCQ. I can see him returning it to Howard or even deciding it's Bradley's time. I don't think Klinsmann will shy away from showing his displeasure in the move and might look to send a message.
Old School
Not a fan of handing the armband to a GK and I don't see any reason Clint should lose the armband.
Clint hasn't dramatically changed, on any level, now that he's playing in Seattle. Don't buy that hype (or hysteria…..).
Unless Dempsey and Jurgen had a falling out behind the scenes, even then, I don't see how Jurgen would make that move. It's Clint's team to Brazil.
After Brazil? Bradley seems the logical choice but not before then.
I'm not saying its what I would do, just that I wouldn't be surprised if Klinsmann did. Personally I think the move to Seattle will be good for Clint. Now he is really going to have to be a leader for his club. Will Klinsmann see it the same way? Who knows.
Is hysteria ever senseless?
Old School
Only if it's created by alleged "anonymous sources".
well clearly Klinsi knows what he's doing since Dempsey just doesn't hustle enough like that Lazy Out the door guy-he's just trying to motivate him. He's 30, so clearly past his peak. Maybe if he plays for Seattle as well as Brad and EJ, he'll get another shot. Besides, it's been at least 12 games since he scored for USMNT. This gives him a chance to clear his head and earn his way back into Klinsi's good graces
with Ajo, EJ, Wood and Boyd confirmed probably won't be another forward (jozy!?).. unless Ajo isnt playing.
louis z
I would be very surprise if AJ's paperwork is anywhere near complete. Very interesting, I'm sure if Dempsey was in Europe no matter how out of form, he would get the call, remember the call last year for the Jamaica game?
if i'm klinsi, i let jozy get the preseason time in with sunderland
It's time for Michael Bradley to become captain of the full national team. He is more of a vocal leader and the players will respect him especially playing for big club in a top 4 league. Dempsey playing for Tottenham and testing himself for a top 4 EPL team was enough in the past for the young kids and grizzled Euro veterans to look up to. Klinsmann himself wants players to test themselves against the very best and was reportedly disappointed in 'Deuce' moving to Sounders FC. Sure it might have been the best thing for his family and to ensure guaranteed playing time, but seeing a player who seems to have three more years of top flight football in him it is disappointing for Jürgen. If a young promising player comes to him and Klinsmann needs to show an example of who he can become with a little hard work, Donovan who was a great embassador for MLS is not the guy. Dempsey, a guy who many viewed as an anti-Donovan is no longer that guy after he stopped fighting in what he believed in. So now Bradley is that guy who players will look at as an example, an ambitious player fighting to play for Champions League football. #InJürgenWeTrust
My guess would be Howard gets the arm band for this match, but Mikey would be a nice choice.
There is more to life than futbol. Also, my guess is you have no idea what it is like living oversees with children. It blows. It is very difficult, even for the wealthy. There is no place like home.
It blows? Why do you say that? I lived overseas as a child and it was awesome. Probably the best experience of my and my family's life. And if its a culture thing, than Seattle could be just as shocking.
Roman Lewandowski
JK would rather fly Brad Evans halfway around the world than call up Eric Lichaj. Why do I keep letting this surprise me?
For what it's worth, Lichaj has gotten great reviews from his Nottingham Forest performances so far.
SBI TroII
Calling up a player to play in his natural position? What a novel concept. I've enjoyed what Klinsmann has done this calendar year, but Brad Evans and Beasley are short term solutions that we can get away with playing CONCACAF competition. We not only need starters (Johnson and Chandler are probably it) but depth too. Lichaj definitely warrants a look.
You are assuming that Timothy Chandler, who has played a grand total of, count 'em, two games for the USMNT in the past 22 months will be on the roster for Bosnia-Herzegovina. It is highly possible that Timothy will turn down yet another call-up citing club duties and fatigue or will again claim an injury that will magically disappear a day later. I think we see Eric Lichaj (and Brad Evans) against Bosnia-Herzegovina and not Timothy Chandler.
You are @ssuming that Timothy Chandler, who has played a grand total of, count 'em, two games for the USMNT in the past 22 months will be on the roster for Bosnia-Herzegovina. It is highly possible that Timothy will turn down yet another call-up citing club duties and fatigue or will again claim an injury that will magically disappear a day later. I think we see Eric Lichaj (and Brad Evans) against Bosnia-Herzegovina and not Timothy Chandler.
So you know for certain that JK did not call up Lichaj?
Plus even if he didn't, JK has established before that he (and his staff) have a rating system and Lichaj probably is waaay down the pecking order. I've got no beef with that. Lichaj will get his chance, when he earns it of course (coach's call as to when that is). Beas and Evans may not be everyone's sexy choice but they stepped in when called and did the business (and better yet have done everything they can to hold onto their positions).
I hear Lichaj has been doing the business in the Championship. JK said he's watching him. Lichaj could be playing his way into a call up and once he gets his shot I hope he does everything he can to keep it – like Evans and Beas. Maybe JK calls him now, maybe he doesn't. It's a friendly and I don't see the world ending if Lichaj does not get the call.
Quite frankly I would like to see Evans go up against these types of teams. We know what he can do in CONCACAF so lets see how he holds up against the kind of teams we'll be tangoing with next summer. It's Evans' chance now – he earned it and he's doing what it takes to fight for it. Just because he's in MLS does not make him an automatic seat warmer for the next Euro guy who all of a sudden decides to up their game.
Actually, there are two other possibilities for a Timothy no-show: 1) Klinsmann will finally admit that Chandler's club form has been bad and does not merit a call-up and 2) that Klinsmann will finally admit that Chandler now for a long time has displayed a lack of commitment to the USMNT, including turning down a call-up to the Gold Cup squad which would have been a perfect opportunity to show he truly cares about the shirt and not just his own selfish desire to play in a World Cup.
Timothy also could have used Gold Cup duty to improve his obvious bad chemistry with other USMNT players. Landon Donovan, the best USMNT player in the past decade who has bled for the shirt time and time again did not think he was too good to play on the B-Team. It could be, folks, that Timothy is no longer in discussion for the WC 2014. And then in the WC 2018 cycle he will have another chance to prove he is truly committed.
"Roman Lewandowski says:
JK would rather fly Brad Evans halfway around the world than call up Eric Lichaj. Why do I keep letting this surprise me?"
You shouldn't let it surprise you.
What has Lichaj ever done for JK? Evans has done more for the USMNT and JK , more recently than Lichaj ever did.
Unless there's some personal beef with Lichaj (and why would there be), one has to assume that Klinsy and staff have watched the kid play and just were not impressed. No offense to the SBI readers, but I'm inclined to trust their talent evaluation a bit more than the folks here. If EJ is being called up, I wonder what it says for his place on the Sounders now that Clint is in Seattle. They have Oba, Clint, EJ, and Neagle all performing at a high level. Friendship with Clint aside, I'd probably keep Neagle at a low number next year before I re-signed EJ. Not saying Neagle is as good as EJ (he's not), but he's a good player, a local guy, and less likely to be disruptive (or expensive)…
Fine with Dempsey being left out; he needs to train with his new club.
Annoying that Jurgen would call in MLS players for a one off game in Europe that is only a friendly. Especially grabbing multiple people from the same team.
I wouldn't assume that evans is being called in to play RB. He could be replacing D williams/Edu in the pool, not chandler/Lichaj etc.

@namelesswayLocale: Mid Atlantic
So I've done a little looking and thought I'd ask the collective wisdom of this list for some advice. I'm simply looking for a down blanket that will fit myself and my wife when open, and something I can use folded in half when the weather is no colder than 40 degrees. I have a 15 degree mummy bag for the times I know the weather is more questionable, but I simply love the breathability of down.
It needs to be simply a rectangle. No frills, and light as can be. 800+ fill would be perfect. The shell aught to handle tent condensation but no need to go overkill on this. I've checked into quilts but I seem to keep stumbling into tapered and hooded models, which simply don't seem all that different than an unzipped mummy bag.
Does anyone have any recommendation(s) for something like this, or what company to check into?
Thanks much…
@cary75Locale: NW
I love my jacks r better large quilt. I have the wings to tuck around us on the sides, and a hood to keep the wind out in between us. It weighs 2 pounds and is currently on sale :). mine is comfortable down to about 33 degrees for the 2 of us and surely comfortable to much lower if velcroed up for 1 person. The only caveat is its bulk.
I'm interested in your jrb quilt if its still for sale. msg me or see my post on swap.

Stains that appear on your vehicle may not come off after washing. Depending on the stain, it may need to be wiped, scrubbed or washed with a special cleaner. There are ways to get stains off of the car's surface without harming the paint or finish of your car. Once any special cleaner is applied to your car's paint, it should be followed by a good polish and wax to protect the car from further damage.
Grease or Oil Based Stains
Stains that are made of an oil- or grease-based material are often hard to remove even after several washed. These stains can come from several sources, including the material from your last oil change, road crew material from driving in a construction zone or other sources. Once these materials get on the paint, they are hard to remove, especially after they are heated by the sun.
Begin by washing the car with warm water and car wash soap. You can use dish detergent on the stain itself, but avoid using the detergent on the entire car, since it causes the clearcoat to dry out and eventually become dull. Use a small amount of full strength soap directly on the stain. Rub it around using a soft sponge or cotton towel. If the stain is oil- or grease-based, this should remove it completely. Make sure to rinse all of the soap off of the car to prevent soap spots.
Other Stains
Other types of stains may be more difficult to remove, such as overspray from paint or other liquid. There is a product that can safely and completely remove these stains without causing any harm to the car's painted surface. You can pick up a clay bar kit at almost any automotive parts or supply store. The kit will include a clay bar, clay lubricant and possibly a cloth and detail spray. Since you aren't detailing the car, you won't need the cloth and detail spray.
Wash the car and dry it with a chamois. The car must be clean and dry to use the clay bar system. Spray some of the clay lubricant over the stain and surrounding area where the clay bar will be used. Place the clay bar near the stain and rub it back and forth across the stained area, going different directions to make sure the stain is picked up. The clay bar can be folded multiple times to keep a clean area of the bar exposed. Do this until the stain is removed. The clay bar also picks up tiny particles embedded in the clearcoat that can't be seen.
To finish any stain removal process you can polish the car to blend any newly cleaned area with the entire car. Begin by applying a liquid polishing compound to the pad of an orbital polisher. Begin at the front of the car and work your way back, using back and forth and circular motions. The car will have a deep, glossy shine once you are done. You can apply a thin coat of carnauba wax and allow it to stand for five minutes. Buff it off by hand with a cotton cloth.

Life with a Capital L: Embracing Your God-Given Humanity
€ 13,99
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
Oktober 2014
BeschreibungWhat is it that you long for? Dream about? Hunger after? We all desire more than just the endurance of our daily routines. But often we feel limited and stuck - like we're merely existing instead of living. That's not the way it was meant to be. God intends the humanity in each of us to be deeply experienced, lavishly enjoyed, and exuberantly celebrated. In fact this is what the gospel is all about. Yes, the gospel. Contrary to conventional thinking - inside and outside the church - following Jesus is not about denying our humanness but embracing it. Rather than acting more spiritual or being more religious, we're called and enabled to become more fully human...and alive. Matt Heard escorts us on a journey of discovery: that Jesus didn't come to save us from our humanity - Christ instead yearns to restore it to what God originally intended. Matt then explores ten key areas where everyday life can become extraordinary Life. Christ promised we could "live life to the full." He didn't just mean eventually. Life with a Capital L is the Life you are longing for. Now.
PortraitMatt Heard and his wife, Arlene, live in Colorado Springs and have three adult sons. A speaker and writer, Matt was the senior pastor at Woodmen Valley Chapel for twelve years. Whether standing in front of people with a microphone or in a trout stream with a fly rod, whether sitting around a dinner table with friends or serving a need in his city, he loves exploring and experiencing Life with a capital L.

Some Facts: At Coffee Island there is a great variety of teapots used for large amounts or individual use.
The best way to store tea is in an airtight container so that it will not be affected by light, odors and moisture. If you use a tea bag, you should not stir too long during extraction because this will stop the infusion process and tea will not be as enjoyable as it could. Water should not be boiled together with tea. To make a soothing and sedative cup of tea, use a smaller amount of tea and longer infusion. In case you want a stimulant and tonic cup of tea, use a larger amount of tea and shorter infusion.To enjoy a good cup of tea, pour one tea bag or one tablespoon of loose tea in some boiling water that you have taken off fire.
Profile: Using loose leaf tea or herbs gives us the opportunity to enjoy hot beverages.
Let the tea steep for 3-5 minutes before removing the tea bag or the tea leaves with a strainer.

Of chief concern of course to Tiger fans is the status of Cameron Maybin, who hasn't played since last Sunday, May 7th. The problem? Maybin's finger.
He has had the finger X-rayed and checked out ad nauseum, and there is no structural damage, or anything of any real concern. What the team is calling 'trigger finger' has now kept Maybin on the shelf for a full week, and there is some concern that there might be something else there. Should he not regain the ability to move it, he certainly may travel down to Detroit to re-examine it, but for now, the club will wait it out and hope everything works out fine.
Moving up a level, there was more bad news when it came to the pitching staff; both Jair Jurrjens and Kevin Whelan ended up with injury issues – Jurrjens was removed from his most recent start after just 3 innings, while Whelan sprained his ankle. Since the club has been on the road, there has been little as far as information is concerned, but for now, be consoled by the old adage 'no news is good news', because if something serious had happened, word likely would have gotten out.
Wil Ledezma on the other hand was just activated from the disabled list. Ledezma had been on the shelf for the past two weeks because of a strained oblique muscle, but it was nothing serious, and he'll be returning to the Toledo rotation. The 'Hens will likely keep a close eye on Ledezma and his mechanics, as a strained oblique can often force pitchers to alter things in their delivery without noticing it, which could cause further problems down the road.
To open up a spot, John Ennis was sent down to Erie.
Finally, moving to extended spring training where a pair of top draft picks have finally seen some action as of late.
Eric Beattie's struggles have been well documented – since he started trying to pitch professionally, Beattie just simply couldn't find the strike zone. Numerous attempts at tweaking mechanics and re-focusing his mindset did little to help him, and then this spring he started experiencing pain in his elbow when he threw.
Just this past week, Beattie threw a bullpen session, with varying reports on how successful it went. Regardless of his accuracy, the bigger concern is that the pain in his elbow doesn't seem to be going away completely, which is a concern that might lead to Beattie going under the knife, especially if it persists and his control doesn't return.
Finally, Kyle Sleeth moved away from bullpen sessions this past week and pitched two innings in an extended spring training game this past week. Besides a little tightness in his back, Sleeth experienced no issues with pitching in game action. The next test for Sleeth over the next couple weeks will be for him to begin to stretch his outings longer, and then be able to return to action for a regular spot in the rotation.
Nothing is ever certain when it comes to Tommy John surgery recovery, and there's no telling when a setback could occur. But, if everything goes as planned, Sleeth should find himself in the Lakeland rotation sometime in the first half of June.
Below are a couple pictures of Sleeth's return to the mound, via TigsTown Contributor Roger DeWitt:

Can you suggest a solution to it
zoology is one of the basic subject of biology, which has generated huge knowledge. The zoology is the study of animals in their natural habitat or in the laboratory.The scope of zoology depends upon the academic qualifications of the person. A person holding a post graduate degree of zoology will be eligible for the post of school teacher and Research associate, senior research fellow, junior research fellow in a research project.The person holding a doctoral degree in zoology will be eligible to get a post of lecturer, assistant scientist, assistant professor in colleges, universities, research institutes and governmental laboratories.Now just imagine, is it possible that university and institutions will be closed one day??, or the subject zoology will be out of stream?? This is a basic subject and has generated huge information about animals, their behavior, classification, distribution and physiology.The other scope of zoology subject is in the following fields, other than mentioned above;Zoo, museums, aquarium, television channels, veterinary hospitals, animal clinics, wild life management funds, fishery and aquaculture, pest control companies, animal take care organizations, botanical gardens, conservation organization, forest department and many more fields.The research opportunities in zoology subject are enormous, scientist conduct research on small animals and then they recommend that research on the humans.For example, Diphtheria,typhoid disease research has been conducted on animals, if animals were not used by zoologist for research, then it would not have been possible to develop many vaccines against pathogens.You may be in the opinion that, much has been done in the zoology subject and now there is nothing to do or discover new things. This is not true, the zoologist are now investigating the old things into very minute details. These details are now at molecular levels. The zoologist in universities, institutions and in multinational companies are working on gene level. It means, the scope of zoology will not be over in coming many many years. If you are a zoology student, then you can make your career in this stream.Good Luck..
In order to post replies to the question: "Shall we see saturation of jobs in zoology in the next few years?"

Chapter 6Mature
I stood before Duncan in a room of the Grey Warden compound in Denerim. The room was almost bare, save for a fireplace, a table, and a few bookshelves. Another Grey Warden was there. His name was Riordan.
Duncan held in his hand a silver chalice, filled with the blood I had collected from the ogre. It was time.
"Step forth, Vralen," he said. Riordan had a blank look on his face, like he would be completely unaffected if I died right before him. He must have seen many other recruits die in the Joining.
Duncan handed me the chalice. I took it with both my hands, and looked at my reflection in the blood.
"Bottoms up," I thought to myself. I raised the chalice to my lips, tipped my head back, and drank the blood. It burned going down, like the foulest kind of whiskey, and when I was done I nearly gagged. But it wasn't over yet.
My hearing became hollow, my vision dampened slightly, I started gagging and dropped to my hands and knees. My eyes went blank white, and in my head I could see the faces of the darkspawn, laughing and growling, swarming as if to rip me apart. But I managed to resist the pain that I felt inside, and, with difficulty, got back up to my feet. The burning in my throat stopped, and my hearing and vision returned to normal. I had survived.
"From this moment forward," said Duncan, "you are a Grey Warden."
"Remember our motto," said Riordan. "In war, victory. In peace, vigilance. In death, sacrifice."

Hunter: ApprovalMature
"That was amazing," Tammy whispered in my ear as we made our way to the football table in the caf. "Captain," she added with a wink. I smiled as I slid into my seat, my arm tightening around her tiny waist.
"Who's this?" Alex's girl, Brandi, asked in the moment of air she took from the make-out session they were having.
"I'm Tammy," she chimed, fitting her head into my neck. "Nice to meet you guys!"
The guys muttered mixed greetings, Chris the quietest of all.

Hi PH community, I have just booked some international flights with air canada and am wondering if anyone has any advice for converting the points that I would earn from the flight back to my QANTAS or VFF programs? Should I sign up to the KrisFlyer and claim the points from the flight (affiliate program) and then convert to Virgin?
