Greetings B,
Thank you for the question.
Legal disclaimer: we do not have a doctor-patient relationship and we cannot give specific instructions of care to you, but we can give you our best effort to find high-quality information that you can consider. If we are wrong, or you don't like what we say, feel free to leave a message and let us know how we can improve the quality of the service. In addition, we encourage other people in the community to contribute their knowledge to the questions that are asked.
For example, if you have a rare disease, and had a rare surgery, please simply state "back surgery," and if needed we can explore that further. If your neighbor or best friend reads this, will be they be able to identify you based on the information given? If yes, please remove the information or change it slightly.
BAD example: I live in Boston, Dr. Patel at MGH hospital diagnosed me with a schwannoma tumor last month, then I traveled to Tokyo and taught english for a year.
Acceptable example: I live in the United States, I had a tumor & surgery, then I traveled abroad for work.
1. You can take a pregnancy test. Whether it is too soon, I cannot presently say becuase I do not when when you were expecting your period.
1. On what day did you expect menses to occur?
2. What about the period before that (when did the first day of menses occur).
3. Have you had spotting before?
4. How much blood loss have you had?
5. Some women are pregnant with a negative pregnancy test.
6. Once of the first things that is recommended in the workup of a pre-menopausal, post-menarchal female with genital bleeding is a pregnancy test.
7. Are you having abdominal pain?
8. Have you considered plan B?
9. Have you considered using condoms also?
10. What is your temperature?
11. Have you had any other abnormal vaginal discharge, burning or itching of the genitals?
12. Have you had-felt feverish, chills, night sweats, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, change in your skin, hair or nails?
13. What medical conditions do you have?
14. What is your age, please add or substract 1-3 years for privacy.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards.
Greetings B,
1. The pain in your back could be concerning for a kidney infection. If you tap on your back does it hurt (see video). If you jump up and down on one foot are you in pain? which side of your back is the pain at? On both sides or only on one side?
2. The spotting could be from using the hormonal contraception intermittently, it could also be from an infection.
3. I think you will likely want to see a doctor and be evaluated. They will likely do a pregnancy test and a urine analysis which will check for infection, and glucose, and others.
4. Please consider the video below to see if you have any of the symptoms/signs of kidney infection; and/or urinary tract infection.
Please consider keeping me updated.
Kind regards.

FIRST: There's kind of a long story behind my latest War Machine wallpaper. If you wanna read it, you can go to my Tumblr find out the deal.
AND: Suffice to say that by this point, the AudioShocker is the #1 War Machine fansite… amiright?!?! I mean, this is probably like my umpteenth War Machine blog post. Seriously. I don't think there's anyone else out there who actually cares this much, and that makes me both happy and sad.
NOW: On with the wallpaper! This beauty comes from the pages of Iron Man #289. Page 15 panel 1, to be exact. The Living Laser arrives at Stark Enterprises to throwdown with Tony Stark only to find Jim Rhodes has taken his place. Rhodey then offers the electric supervillain a job (as a ruse) and proceeds to sneak away so he can put on a kickass refractive suit of armor (covered in prisma-polymer laser-proofing, to be exact). Hijinks ensue.
1680×1050 — 1600×900 — 1440×900 — 1366×768 — 1280×800
Art is by Tom Morgan, Brad Vancata, and Ariane Lenshoek… and, uhhh, me. Sorta. See, I isolated Tom and Brad's linework so I could redo Ariane's colors (because the original image I had was kinda lo-res and not wallpaper worthy). In fact, here's a bonus wallpaper consisting solely of my recreation of Ariane's color art:
1680×1050 — 1600×900 — 1440×900 — 1366×768 — 1280×800
You'll be pleased to know that Iron Man #289 had a happy ending — War Machine scrambled the Living Laser's particles and shot him out into deep space. Then Rhodey took off the armor and spent the next three days wondering if his actions made him a murderer. HAPPY!!!

Tucson has three sources of water: groundwater, Colorado River water, and recycled water.
Tucson Water uses some of its recycled water to produce reclaimed water, which is specially treated for applications such as irrigation, dust control, and industrial uses. We have been producing and delivering reclaimed water since 1984.
Recycled water is a second renewable water resource (Colorado River is the other). Producing and using reclaimed water for irrigation saves groundwater and Colorado River water for drinking. Tucson Water was one of the first water utilities in the nation to begin recycling water, treating it for irrigation and other non-drinking water uses. Experts from around the world visit Tucson Water to learn how we recycle water and to study our reclaimed water system.

CORRECTED-UK government lends hand to BP in U.S. Gulf oil spill rulings
(Corrects to make clear British government brief does not relate to Louisiana court ruling last week)
Sept 7 (Reuters) - The British government has urged the U.S. Supreme Court to review appeals court rulings against BP Plc over a 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill that produced one of the largest class actions in American history.
In a friend of court brief, the UK government said lower court rulings raise grave international concerns by undermining confidence in the "vigorous and fair resolution of disputes."
The filing said BP, which has "gone to great lengths to restore the Gulf Coast", was now being required to pay large sums to others who were not injured by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
The London-based oil major is appealing lower court decisions within the last year that it believes wrongly require it to compensate claimants who suffered no injuries from the spill.
The British government said treatment meted out to BP undermined the fairness and trust necessary for international commerce.
The United States and Britain conduct more than $200 billion in trade each year, and UK businesses are responsible for 17 percent of all foreign direct investment in the United States, according to the filing.
In a separate statement, BP said the government's petition emphasizes the importance of fair and consistent application of law.
BP argued that the Fifth Circuit's decisions, if allowed to stand, will fundamentally alter class action law and discourage companies from settling complex cases. Continuación...

Switching from vanity to pedestal sink
Hi All,
I have no experience with pedestal sinks. I'd love to install one where there was once a vanity with sink top. Do the shut-offs need to be moved further up? What about the drain pipe? (My terminology may be off) Are there any pedestal sinks that would accommodate the current plumbing or does it need to be changed?
I've gotten one quote so far:
$200 to move the water lines up and closer
$375 to set the pedestal sink (plus set the toilet)
Is this a reasonable quote?
Those quotes sound reasonable. Around here it is $100 just for any service person to knock on your door!
Then it is YOUR bathroom. Get what you really want. You will look at this everyday, so live it up and get what you want!
Then have them connect it - whatever they have to do...
I think you will be pleased with your decision.
Those connections would work but you may want to move the H and C closer together so that they are hidden behind the pedestal.

Liberty's History
On April 29th, 1969 Liberty Reformed Presbyterian Church held it's first worship service in the Maryland National Bank hall under the leadership of the Reverend William Kerwin. The new church was beginning from scratch. There were no by-laws and therefore no session or board of deacons. However, the congregation was excited about the new church. Committees were formed and the work began. From the beginning it was evident that the church could not continue to meet in a community hall and needed a more permanent home. When the barn and farmland we presently occupy became available, a deposit was made. Even though the church had a budget committee, there was no money saved for a building. People realized they would have to use their personal savings to build this church.
Future home of Liberty Church
Resources were pulled together, bonds purchased and an architect drew up plans for the building. Soon work began. The men of the church and their families worked evenings after their regular jobs and all day on Saturday. Christmas Eve, 1969, arrived and a church service was held in the not-yet-finished sanctuary. Temporary lights were put up for the service and the chairs on loan had to be back by midnight. But it was exciting to have a service in the "Barn." The first service in the finished church was on Mother's Day, 1970.
The Lord continued to bless the church as membership increased and the ministries of evangelism, discipleship and missions grew and flourished. As the church grew, more room was needed, and in 1975 construction began on a new sanctuary. That same year Rev. Dr. Mark Pett was installed as the second pastor of Liberty. It was at this time that the church's vision was expanded to include pastoral communities and the formation of five daughter churches.
Mark and many Elders also had a vision for a Christian School to serve the needs of the covenant children and in 1980 Liberty Christian School was started in the lower level of the church with a Pre-K and Kindergarten program. As the school grew, more facilities were needed and a portable building was restored on the property enabling Liberty Christian School to expand to 8th grade.
More recently, in order to reflect our association with the Presbyterian Church in America, our name was changed to Liberty Church, PCA. Still, our church continues to benefit from the leadership of gifted pastors. Since December of 2004, Russell B. Sukhia has been the senior pastor. Barry Cureton is associate pastor and Nick Hathaway is the youth pastor.

Make Your Own Super Power Conjure BagIn Northern African magic, sulfur is said to be equal to salt in its magickal qualities for repelling evil entities and conjuring power energy. Sulfur is used as a primary ingredient for banishing spells and exorcisms. Traditionally, sulfur can be burned or carried as a talisman or in a conjure bag. Burning is not adviseable as it is potentially quite irritating. Here are a couple of ways to make power conjure bags using sulfur.
Sulfur Spell Conjure Bag: You will need a piece of red flannel cut into a 2 x 2 inch square (minimum). You can use any red material but in New Orleans flannel is frequently used in hoodoo workings. Place a piece of sulfur in the center and tie the bag using leather or hemp cord. You can also use sulfur powder for this. Activate the bag by attaching a small sword charm to it.
Sulfur Spell Extra Power Conjure Bag: You need a piece of red flannel cut in a 4x4 inch square. Place some or all of the following into the bag: a pinch of sulfur, a pinch of henna or iron oxide, a pich of kohl powder, a pich of graveyard dust or dirt, and a pinch of tobacco. Carry this super power conjure bag with you to give you power over malevolence.

Like any good, robust phone that has been designed with the outdoors in mind, the Samsung B2700 Bound is cased in a protective, rubbery casing. It may not look pretty, but its keypad is large and practical, and meticulously sealed to keep the water out.
There were no problems with navigating the phone's menu – as it is designed to be a toughphone the emphasis is on its external capabilities, so you can't go far wrong.
Aside from the phones robustness, it also features some quirky additions that will appeal to the outdoor user. It offers a built-in Pedometer, to count your steps, and a compass – very useful on long walks. Its multimedia capabilities are also pretty good, with a two-megapixel camera, 3G data speeds and 26MB of internal memory.
The Samsung B2700 Bound claims to be water resistant, and it was able to survive a thorough soaking without any problems. It can also take more than a few bumps and knocks, making it far sturdier than the average phone.
The battery life was more than sufficient, and surpassed that of other toughphones.
Depending on your requirements, the Samsung B2700 Bound could be the phone for you. If you are after a robust phone that still offers you multimedia capabilities then it's ideal, but if you need something that can withstand anything, then the Sonim XP3 is probably more suitable.
Review by Sunetra Chakravati,12/12/2011 3:54:24 PM
Look and feel
Ease of use
Battery life
A sturdy phone with a feature set that outdoes the other ruggedised phones on the market.
Despite sporting 3G data speeds, the internet experience was not as smooth as we might have hoped.
Last month we reviewed the Sonim XP3 Enduro, concluding that it was the "hardest" phone we had ever encountered. Having survived being thrown out of a window, dropped in a pint of water for half an hour and even driven over with a double decker bus (this did finally destroy it although you could still make and receive calls) it certainly warranted its toughphone kudos. Yet like the big kid at school, there's always someone who wants to have a pop thus claiming their title as the one not to mess with. Say hello to the Samsung B2700, also known as the Samsung Bound.
This is not the first time Samsung has unveiled a ruggedised phone. Last year, we tried and tested the Samsung Solid. Unfortunately for Samsung, Sonim had also just released their own JCB-endorsed toughphone which outdid the Solid on nearly all fronts. It's somewhat unfair to make another direct comparison between the Samsung Bound and the Sonim XP3 Enduro, for the very reason that while Sonim openly encourages you to try and destroy it, the Bound simply markets itself as being able to withstand more than the usual array of bumps and knocks. That said.........
The Samsung Bound is made primarily of a rubber plasticy casing that we assume helps cushion any untoward blows. The keypad is meticulously sealed which is a relief as the Bound does claim to be water resistant. The keys themselves are on the large side which is a good thing if you take into account that an outdoorsy type, who the phone is predominately aimed at, will often be wearing a pair of gloves at the time of use. While the central navigation pad felt good under the thumbs, the middle command key did feel a bit slippery and was also too raised so as you may accidentally hit it when using the navigation pad.
The screen is superior to the Sonim XP3 Enduro both in terms of size and resolution and makes for a far more vibrant display. However, the screen does not feel as protective as the Enduro. At the top of the phone, above the screen is a hook that allows you to clip the phone onto a belt or alike, again another useful factor for a ruggedised handset.
Samsung claims that the Bound is not only water resistant, but also shock and dust. It's important to distinguish between water resistant and waterproof, which Sonim's XP3 Enduro was for up to half an hour in a depth of one meter. Rather than give the Bound a real soaking we diligently poured some water over the handset, much akin to if you dropped it in a shallow puddle for a brief instant. We're happy to say that it was unaffected and remained so. We also gave the phone a good hammering by repeatedly dropping it on the floor and giving it a stamping for good measure. It survived without so much as a scuff on it. Granted it's not the same as dropping it out a first floor window or running over it with a double decker bus, but we can confirm that it's more robust than most.
Where the Samsung Bound does supersede the Sonim XP3 Enduro is with its features, including a couple of quirky additions. For example, the built-in compass is a great feature that is sure to appeal to the target audience. Calibration is achieved by simply turning the phone over on itself, which once done so will display the direction your phone is pointing in along with what altitude you're at.
The Pedometer counts the number of steps you make, calculating, approximately it should be added, the distance you've travelled and how many calories you will have burned. What's clever about it is that it remains counting even if you're not directly in the application. It works by recording the shock waves caused by each step you make, though unless you are, how do we put this politely, heavy footed, steps were only recorded when we took the phone jogging or climbing stairs. Like the Sonim's model, there's also a powerful flashlight built into the phone.
For a toughphone, the Bound is big on multimedia. The two-megapixel camera is competent at achieving some sound shots, though the lack of lens cover for a phone that is built to withstand the odd rough and tumble is a slight concern. Once you have taken your snap, you can actually see more of the shot than first appears in the screen by scrolling up and down. A neat little touch we think. The built-in video camera is capable of recording at 15 frames per second, which while not the DVD-quality you'll find in hero handsets, is good enough to watch back your climbing and mountain biking exploits. Though there's no accelerometer, you can manually switch the screen to horizontal so you can view your videos in landscape format.
With 3G data speeds, you won't have to suffer the same lethargic internet experience as found with the Enduro. However, scrolling down pages was rather jumpy with your eyes taking a few seconds to adjust to the display.
While the Samsung Bound only houses 26MB on internal memory, there is a microSD card slot that is capable of housing a memory card of up to 8GB - though this will have to be purchased separately - meaning there's plenty of room to store your music. Tracks can be divided into a variety of categories including artists, genres, albums, composers, and podcasts. You can even create your own playlists. Although there's no 3.5mm headset port, there is stereo Bluetooth (A2DP). We paired up our Bluetooth headphones at the first time of asking with the music quality crisp and seamless.
The Samsung B2700 Bound is a vast improvement on the wimpy Samsung Solid. However, it's still knocked out by the prowess of the hard hitting Sonim XP3 Enduro. That said, the Bound offers far more in terms of features, all of which function at a decent standard. If you're in the market for a ruggedised toughphone but are a keen internet user or like the option of being able to take the occasional photograph, then we'd recommend the Samsung Bound. Yet if you want a phone that can survive pretty much anything you throw, drop or fire at it, then the Sonim XP3 Enduro is still the heavyweight champ of the mobile phone world.

I've just picked up my lunch and I'm on my way home. Traffic ahead is at a total standstill. To my right, I see a road I know to be a shortcut, so I turn onto it. Shortly after getting on, I see a yellow Chevy Tracker coming from the opposite direction, with a signal on to turn across my lane into the mall. Next thing I know, she's turning RIGHT in front of me and I'm standing on my brake, unintentionally laying on the horn with the way I grabbed the wheel. I slide a fair distance but manage to miss hitting her. She looks surprised, as if she couldn't see the BRIGHT BLUE car coming up the road, or that she expected me to come to a stop and let her by.
That scared the crap out of me (not literally). Normally, when someone cuts into my lane, from whatever direction, I see it coming and am prepared. This time caught me completely off-guard. I don't know how I didn't see it, but BAM! she was just THERE, in my lane. Thank GOD for the Brembos! Big brakes saved me and my car today. Had I been in any other car I've ever owned or driven, short of the 914, I would have been unable to avoid plowing into the side of that Tracker. I don't know what possessed her to turn in front of oncoming traffic but...I now realize the difference between these brakes and the ones on other cars! I suspect I slid some since my tires are nearly bald.
Today, I'm especially happy to be an STi owner. However it happened that I didn't see her coming, these brakes made up for it, though I can't count on that all the time.
Tracker: 0
STi: 0 (STi brakes 1?)
I think I'll be doing any upgrade short of total brake replacement that will allow my car to stop faster...I now realize how important they are.

"I think we feel fortunate to win and I thought we played very well tonight," Titan Head Coach Bob Burton said.
In a battle of teams that thrive on transition basketball, CSUF locked down on the defensive end.
CSUN could not overcome the Titans' swarming pressure, which led to 24 points off turnovers.
"The defense all night was terrific," Burton said.
The No. 5 Titans held the No. 8 Matadors to just 39.1 percent shooting.
"Tonight we were all on one keel," Burton said.
Redshirt junior forward Jer'Vaughn Johnson dominated the interior – 20 points and 12 rebounds – with his fifth double-double of the season in large part because CSUN's leading rebounder, junior forward Lenny Daniel sat out because of academic reasons.
"I take the same approach to every game," Johnson said. "Him (Daniel) not playing really helped us out."
Junior guard Devon Peltier made five three-pointers on his way to 19 points.
"He hit some major shots tonight which were important," Burton said. "V.I. coming in and really made the difference."
The Matador zone defense put Peltier in a groove offensively.
"My eyes do light up when I see a zone," Peltier said. "They were face-guarding me most of the night. I just try to find gaps in the zone or get open in the corner and they pop it out to me."
In the early going, both teams stuck to their strengths, pushing the pace and not allowing the defense to set up.
The game started with CSUN jumping out to an early 9-4 lead.
Peltier's three-pointer tied the game at 15-15.
The Matadors retaliated with a 6-0 run before Peltier ended it with another shot from beyond the arc.
CSUN's hopes were diminished when Matador senior forward Willie Galick committed two fouls with 10:55 to go.
"I thought the turning point of the game was when Galick got two fouls because we couldn't guard him and he was causing a lot of problems," Burton said.
After an Anderson layup with 6:50 left in the game, the layup put the Titans up 26-25 and they did not relinquish the lead for the rest of the half.
With three seconds left, sophomore guard Jacques Streeter's layup gave the Titans their largest lead of the half at 12.
The Titans finished the half on a 21-8 run and led 45-33 at halftime.
In the final 4:53 of the first period, the Titans did not allow CSUN to make a field goal.
At the start of the second half, the game was seesawing back and forth with CSUF's double-digit lead still intact.
With 11:24 to go and the Matadors threatening, the Titans made a couple of key defensive plays that led to a fast break where Anderson jumped over CSUN's redshirt sophomore guard Vinnie McGhee for a thunderous dunk that had the crowd buzzing.
"Guys always say dunks are only two points are really out of it because that's a touchdown," Burton said. "We all love that and it really fired our team up."
CSUN did not let the momentum shift and cut CSUF's lead to 57-52 with 8:58 to go.
However, the Titans shook out of their funk and went on a 10-0 run.
Senior forward Aaron Thompson's three-pointer gave CSUF their largest lead of the game at 70-55.
The Matadors still hung in there and cut the lead down to 10.
Johnson scored five unanswered points before fouling out with 2:25 left in regulation.
For the remainder of the contest, the Titans knocked down free throws to preserve the lead and prevent any Matador comeback.
In the second round, the Titans will face off against UC Davis – the Aggies swept the season series – at 8:30 p.m. at the Anaheim Convention Center.
"We feel good about this game, we're really excited to play them," Burton said. "I like the fact that we played tonight, I think that helps you play the game here in this environment."

In 2014, NUS launched 'I Will…Lead the Way' leadership coaching programme to increase the number of women in leadership positions within students' unions. Following the success of this and our ongoing work to understand how we can best empower and support students from under-represented groups to stand for election, we expanded the coaching programme.
The programme will provide coaching, information and networking opportunities to empower and support those who self-define across all of the liberation groups – women students, Black students, disabled students and LGBT+ students – and who are intending to stand for election or who are already elected and are considering standing for the position of president in their students' union.
Why are we doing this?
The student movement is one of the most progressive, challenging and diverse sections of our society. However, year after year, candidates in students' union elections and elected officers do not reflect the diverse membership of their students' unions and we know that students who define across the Liberation campaigns as women, Black, disabled and LGBT+ continue to experience discrimination. We need opinions, engagement and direction from the entirety of our diverse movement to address this and one of the ways we can meaningfully create space for this is through diversifying the leadership.
We regularly see that those who define as women, disabled, Black and LGBT+ are considerably underrepresented in the movement, particularly in sabbatical officer positions, and even more so when considering the role of President.
Coaching is one way we can support students' from Liberation groups to fight the structural barriers to taking on leadership positions as well as developing skills and networks to create change.
You can find out more about information relating to officer diversity by looking at the latest Officer Diversity Surveys
What are our aims?
– Increase the representation of officers and presidents who self-define as women, Black, disabled and/or LGBT.
– Ensure that those who self-define as women, Black, disabled and/or LGBT have every opportunity to progress.
– Provide networking opportunities and build relationships between those who self-define as women, Black, disabled and/or LGBT.
– Lead organisational change
– Foster organisational diversity
Using 'I Will …Lead The Way'
Each hub relates to NUS' Liberation Campaigns – women's leadership, Black leadership, disability leadership and LGBT leadership and will provide specific information, news and resources relevant to people who define into that group.
If you choose to sign-up for the coaching programme you will be asked to give some information about yourself and what you are looking for so that we make sure that the person you are matched with best meets your needs and preferences. Coachees will have an opportunity to review this information before accepting a provisional match.
If you are interested in becoming a coach, or have any thoughts, suggestions or feedback about 'I Will…Lead the Way' please contact firstname.lastname@example.com

Most music festivals feature their headline acts prominently in their marketing, but not Cornwall's Leopallooza.
The event, described as "the best house party in a field" is smaller than many of its rivals and is known for giving little-known and emerging artists the chance to shine. Which is perhaps why, at half past two on Sunday morning, Radiohead's Thom Yorke got up to play a secret DJ set to just eight people in the backstage area.
"He's probably the most influential artist of the past decade and here he is prepping to play to half a dozen drunk hippies," observed one astonished music buff. Kudos to Leopallooza, though, for refusing to upstage its less celebrated acts.
And while Yorke's audience may have been smaller than he's used to, they were certainly enthusiastic. The Creep singer was last seen being press-ganged into a dosey-doe by barn-dancing locals — many of whom had no idea who he was.Reuse content

Britain wants to block Sri Lanka from hosting the next Commonwealth heads of government meeting in 2011 in protest at Colombo's military repression against the Tamil population earlier this year.
Speaking at the opening of a summit in Trinidad and Tobago today, Gordon Brown will tell fellow Commonwealth leaders that it would be unacceptable for Sri Lanka to be allowed to host the meeting of one of the world's largest groups of democracies.
At the last Commonwealth heads of government meeting in 2007, Sri Lanka said it would like to host the 2011 Commonwealth summit. Britain is understood to be pressing to host the 2013 meeting in Wales.
A Downing Street source said: "The prime minister has real concerns about Sri Lanka's bid.
"We simply cannot be in a position where Sri Lanka – whose actions earlier this year had a huge impact on civilians, leading to thousands of displaced people without proper humanitarian access – is seen to be rewarded for its actions.
"The prime minister will continue to talk to other leaders about this, but is clear this won't wash."
Brown feels particularly strongly about blocking Sri Lanka's bid because he believes hosting the next meeting would give Colombo respectability.
The Commonwealth has 53 members from four continents, representing almost one-third of the world's population.
Colombo ended a 26-year civil war earlier this year with a brutal military campaign against the Tamil Tigers which was widely condemned around the world.
Up to 300,000 people were detained as they fled the last days of the fighting.
The Observer reported that an estimated 136,000 Tamils remain behind barbed wire, most in the Menik Farm complex, near the town of Vavuniya.
Sir John Holmes, the head of the UN's humanitarian agency, last week told Colombo it should free the internees, a process now due to start on Tuesday.
Brown told the Sri Lankan president, Mahinda Rajapaksa, that he must ensure the suffering is minimised.
On 16 June, the prime minister – who discussed Sri Lanka's bid to host the Commonwealth meeting with the Australian prime minister, Kevin Rudd, and the Commonwealth secretary general, Kamalesh Sharma – said: "Sri Lanka stands on the brink.
"We have called repeatedly for the violence to cease. The humanitarian agencies must be granted access to civilians caught in the crossfire of a dreadful conflict.
"Sri Lanka must understand that there will be consequences for its actions."

Secret (original 2004; edition 2008)
by Philippe Grimbert
Work details
Memory by Philippe Grimbert (2004)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This is a novella in which the author fictionalizes his own family's history. After his parents commit suicide by jumping off a balcony, a man recalls his childhood, when he created an imaginary older brother. From a friend of the family young Philippe learned about his parent's secret lives before his birth, and about his real older brother. Touching and beautifully written. Translated from French, and IMO the translator did a great job.
Although an only child, for many years I had a brother. Holiday friends and casual acquaintances had no option but to take my word for it. I had a brother. Stronger and better looking. An older brother, invisible and glorious.
The boy who narrates this small novel imagines having an older brother, one who is everything he is not: athletic, handsome, and beloved of their father. The brother figure is his alter ego, companion, and rival, someone with whom to wrestle with in the night in an effort to dominate and to acquire the characteristics that he himself lacks. He senses his father's disappointment in him and imagines a perfect life for his parents before he was born. But "the day after my fifteenth birthday, I finally learned what I had always known." This knowledge that a family friend shares with him changes everything: his identity, his relationship with his parents, and his place in the world. He must re-imagine everything, and in doing so he creates a new truth, which is cathartic for both himself and his father.
The author of this autobiographical novel is a psychoanalyst, and he delves into issues of identity, desire, guilt, and memory with a deft touch. In an interview that comprises the afterword, Philippe Grimbert says that in writing this book, "I was finally becoming the master of a story of which I had so long been the dupe." Yet he also admits that "I think I have discovered the truth of this story more than its reality, but in any case, this psychological truth was more important to me than the historical reality." (Italics are the author's.) An exploration of the past, both his own and his parents', Memory is a personal history, but also a perspective on an entire generation of children growing up in the shadow of World War II.
This novel has also been made into a 2007 award-winning movie called "A Secret".
I like short books
A young boy, an only child, believes he has an older brother. He carries on imagined discussions with his brother, building him into a real person. One day he finds an old plush toy, a dog, in his family's attic.
A man meets the love of his life on his wedding day. He manages to keep this secret from his wife, even though the woman he loves is her sister-in-law.
A man who has never considered himself a Jew is forced to abandon his business and flee Paris after the Germans invade. He prepares a home for his wife and son who await their chance to escape. All goes well until his wife's sister-in-law arrives ahead of her own husband.
A desperate woman commits a Medea like betrayal.
What if the sequence of events that led you to unite with the love of your life included your own family's death?
Philppe Grimbert's novel Memory is not really about memory, nor is it really about secrets though its French title is The Secret. It's really about how much damage love can do.
Surrender to it at great risk.

No descriptions found.
"Twenty years after his mother and father jumped to their deaths from a balcony, Philippe Grimbert has written a gripping novel about the hidden memories that dominated their lives." "Memory is the story of a family haunted by the secret of their past: an illicit love affair, a lost child, and a devastating betrayal dating back to the Second World War." "Growing up in postwar Paris as the sickly only child of glamorous athletic parents, the narrator invents for himself a make-believe older brother, stronger and more brilliant than he can ever be. It is only when the boy begins talking to an old family friend that he comes to realize that his imaginary sibling had a real predecessor: a half brother whose death in the concentration camps is part of a buried family secret that he was intended never to uncover."--BOOK JACKET.… (more)

Inside Intel's Price Cut
With perhaps a month to go before launch, the next big computer chip remains a bit of a mystery, and so every shift in strategy by longtime rivals Intel and Advanced Micro Devices is being teased for hints of the battle to come. AMD has yet to disclose the performance specifications for its new chip, code-named Barcelona, which may help explain why what might otherwise seem a routine price cut by Intel is spurring anxious buzz: Perhaps Intel is conceding it may soon no longer lay claim to the dual title of biggest and fastest.
Intel (INTC), said to be cutting prices as much as 50% for its premier Core 2 Duo line for high-end computers and servers, no doubt expects to find a newly reinvigorated rival nipping at its heels, if not outrunning it, as early as next month. But cutting prices is a move chipmakers make on a regular basis, and one that analysts say Intel's customers have known about for months. "It always comes down to this: The one who has the best-performing chip in a given segment gets to charge the most," says analyst Nathan Brookwood, head of Insight64, in Saratoga, Calif. "The one who doesn't offers discounts."
But if that's the case, the cuts may indicate that Intel doesn't expect to have the fastest chip once Barcelona launches and has planned to cut prices accordingly. "There was a period up until about a year ago that AMD had the performance lead, and so Intel had to slash prices on its Xeon chips just to sell a few," Brookwood says. "AMD didn't have to respond."
Back and Forth
But those days are gone, and have been for about a year. AMD (AMD) has been muddling through a nasty downturn that had a lot to do with misjudging demand in certain sectors of its market, thus ceding some market share territory it had only recently grabbed from Intel. But AMD has been bouncing back from the worst of its troubles, having just landed a deal to supply chips to Japanese laptop maker Toshiba, a longtime Intel-only shop (see BusinessWeek.com, 5/30/07, "In Switch, Toshiba Buys AMD Chips").
Meanwhile, hopes are riding high at AMD that Barcelona will get it back in the competitive saddle against Intel, which has been exploiting AMD's relatively weak execution with its customary aggressiveness. Having landed several large PC makers as new customers in the last year to 18 months—the biggest of which is Dell (DELL)—AMD found itself struggling to meet the needs of smaller PC makers who buy its chips from distributors like Arrow Electronics (ARW) and Avnet (AVT). This so-called channel business, long an AMD strength, suffered as the company focused its resources on Dell, Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), Gateway (GTW), and others, leaving an opening that Intel was all too happy to exploit.
Intel's true intent may be nothing more than to create problems for AMD ahead of the Barcelona launch by lowering the price floor. If AMD's chip outperforms Intel and reclaims the top performance spot, then Intel's cuts are only slightly harmful. But if AMD's chip doesn't meet expectations, then AMD would have to make price cuts of its own when they would hurt the most. "When Intel gets a cold, AMD gets pneumonia," Brookwood says.
A Question of Timing
An Intel spokesman didn't answer direct questions about the reported cuts but says that it's not uncommon to reduce prices to clear inventory in advance of incremental upgrades to the product lineup like those slated for the near future. Intel never confirms price cuts before they're officially announced, but its customers get an early look at pricing plans before they're put in place for planning purposes.
One important question is whether AMD will deliver the Barcelona chip on time. Eyebrows went up last week as supercomputer vendor Cray (CRAY) warned that it would miss its previously stated revenue forecast, due in part to a shortage of a key component thought to be an AMD chip. Brookwood says the chip in question is code-named Budapest, which is related to Barcelona. Budapest is used only in one-chip systems, whereas Barcelona is expected to be used primarily in systems using four or eight chips, and as such requires more rigorous quality testing before it's shipped.
"Why it's harder to ship a chip that should be easier to test beats me," Brookwood says. The slip on Budapest may hint that Barcelona could be late. An AMD spokesman confirmed a schedule change on the Budapest chip, but said that there have been no delays in customer product launches to suggest any delay in Barcelona. "We don't launch until our customers are ready to go with products that are using our chips," says spokesman Phil Hughes.

We had to put Simba down on January 24, 2008 due to extensive lymphoma, which had spread to his liver and spleen.
Simba was a very good boy, with a unique, challenging, and wonderful personality that told me he was one of a kind!
While our hearts are broken and empty now, I will long be grateful to Catster for supporting this site, and for giving me a place to visit and reminesce all of Simba's quirky habits and his curmudgeon-like attitude.
Thank you to Catster, Dogster, and to all of the folks who've written kind notes of support at the loss of our boy.
Penny & David
Okay, after a few months of giving me panic, including a potential intestinal cancer scare, Simba's back to being healthy, after discovering he's allergic to chicken! Who knew?! Ultrasound, blood work, stool work, injections of fluids, shaved belly, more blood work, blah blah blah...a couple of thousand dollars later, he's off the Hills Prescription Diet, and is eating fancy schmancy canned venison mixed with tuna! He's on twice daily potassium pills for the near future, but his future's lookin' bright! Think I'll get him some shades!
Poor Simba, in his aging state, has been vomiting more lately in response to changes in his life. I started bringing him to David's each weekend so he wouldn't be left alone on weekends, where he would vomit in at least 2-3 places in my apartment. Now, he's started vomiting after the weekend, when I've brought him back home.
BUT, he gives me fair warning; Simba makes this odd growl/cry sound seconds before he starts vomiting, which gives me a chance to jump up and grab him to keep him on the hardwood floors, and not on my rugs. The docs say it's just anxiety, as it's not frequent enough to warrant any physical investigation. Poor guy...one bright side, at least the hardwood floors are easy to clean. :)

Your student organization may want to advertise its programs and activities through the use of select mass mailings or mass mailings sent through the Service Center.
A. Select Mass Mailings: They must be submitted in numerical order. Labels are available. Mass mailings to select groups that are computer-identifiable (i.e. seniors, juniors, resident hall students, etc.) can be done by requesting mailing labels through the Office of Student Development at 327-7800. Requests should be made three days in advance of the time needed . After you have affixed the labels to your mailing, you must submit it to the Service Center in box number order. Mailings not received in numerical order will be returned to the sending organization. If the group you wish to contact cannot be identified by the computer, the mailing must be addressed by hand. All mailings should be dated for the date it is to be put into the boxes, not the date it is sent to be printed.
B. Mass Mailings: Mass mailings sent to all students do not need labels, names or box numbers, but they must be at least 3" x 5" in size. Simply provide the Service Center with 2200 folded copies of the documents you wish to mail. Please allow 2 days for mass mailings to be distributed. Mailings must be in accordance with university mailing policies, which are on file at the Service Center. Please note: Do not put mass mailings in the campus mail slot in the lobby. Submit them at the service window during regular operating hours.
Some other services that the Service Center provides include the sending and receiving of faxes, cash reimbursements for student organization expenses that are under $25.00 and not related to travel, movie checkout for student organization programming, and maintenance of an organization mailbox for every registered group on campus.
Mail Room
The Mail Room, located in the basement of Recitation Hall, is the university's link with the U.S. Postal Service for all outgoing metered mail.
• Always separate local, out-of-town, and foreign mail for correct processing.
• If you are using a standard #10 envelope, always leave the flap open.
• Make sure to have an account number and remember to fill out a Metered Mail Slip. These slips are available at the Mail Room and from Student Activities.
• If there is a bulk mailing that needs to go out, please call 327-6322.
• If your organization needs to send a package or letter by FedEx, please contact the Dispatcher's Office on the main floor of Recitation Hall.
Dining Services
If your organization will have food at one of its events, you will likely want to work with Parkhurst as a provider. In fact, due to contractual obligations, all catered events that take place in university facilities must be arranged through the Dining Services office, which is located on the second floor of the Student Center. But even if you plan to hold an event off-campus, Dining Services can still work to meet your needs. One option you have is to order the food in advance and pick it up yourself. The other option is to have your event catered. Either way, you should contact the Dining Services office at 327-6161 at least one week before the event, preferably two.
Transportation Office - Motor Pool
Wittenberg University owns a fleet of vehicles for the purpose of transporting students to and from University functions. The fleet consists of ten sedans and ten 11-passenger vans, which can be reserved on a first-come first-served basis. Academic and athletic functions take precedence in scheduling if there are more requests than vehicles available on a particular time and day. Wittenberg reserves the right to deny use of vehicles by a group or organization, as it deems necessary, at Wittenberg's sole discretion.
The Transportation Office, also known as Motor Pool, is located in the Recitation Hall Annex. Its normal hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Monday to Friday. Any questions? Call 327-7446.
Driving a University-Owned Vehicle
Wittenberg reserves the right to grant, deny or restrict the privilege of driving a University owned vehicle.
Driving privileges are secured by application submitted to the Transportation Office. Once granted, driving privileges may be suspended or revoked at any time, with or without cause, at Wittenberg's sole discretion.
A. Application for Driving Privileges
A student seeking the privilege to operate a University-owned vehicle must attend a Driver Authorization class (for dates and times, contact the Transportation Office at 327-7446), successfully complete a written exam, and submit an application with a copy of a current valid drivers license from his or her home state. The applicant must disclose all accident and/or moving violations in which the applicant has been involved during the previous three (3) years. Applications are subject to verification through the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.
Privileges to operate a University vehicle are granted for the academic year plus any vacation breaks from the date of application until the next academic year. Students must update their applications at the beginning of each academic year; failure to update application will result in loss of driving privileges.
Wittenberg may restrict driving privileges in any way that it deems appropriate. Effective August 1, 1990 applicants must be at least 20 years old to operate a Wittenberg van.
If the applicant has had more than two accidents and/or moving violations within the preceding 12 months or if any alcohol related violation has occurred at any time, the application will be denied. A student whose application has been denied because of an accident/moving violation may reapply when 12 months have lapsed from the date of the most recent accident/violation.
Any false information on the application will result in the immediate and permanent revocation of driving privileges.
B. Suspension/Revocation of Driving Privilege
If a student obtains driving privileges, and subsequently is involved in an accident or moving violation in a vehicle, the student must report the accident/moving violation to the Transportation Office within 24 hours. Upon review of the driver application and circumstances surrounding the incident, a decision will be made as to whether driving privileges will be suspended. If privileges are suspended, upon re-application, the driver may be reinstated after 12 months have elapsed and the Transportation coordinator reviews student driver status and recommends authorization. An authorized student driver list is available in the office.
C. Driver Authorization Classes
Call the Transportation Office for dates and times at 327-7446.
A. Requesting the Use of a University Vehicle
1. Obtain a Vehicle Request Form from the Transportation Office or at the Student Center Information desk.
2. The form must be fully completed (with account number, approval signature, and driver name before vehicle will be scheduled). Return the completed form to the Motor Pool office. Do not take the form apart. All student, staff, and faculty drivers must be authorized through the Transportation Office to drive Wittenberg-owned vehicles.
3. Motor Pool office will send a copy to department or organization as confirmation that vehicle(s) have been scheduled.
4. Greek organizations must have the form signed by the Director of Fraternity and Sorority Life.
5. You must do a form for each vehicle requested (2 vehicles = 2 forms) etc...
6. Vehicles should be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance. During busy times, vehicles should be scheduled as far in advance as possible. Tentative scheduling can be done over the phone but these requests will not be honored until completed forms are returned to the Transportation Office.
B. Packet Pick-up Procedures
1. Packets for scheduled vehicles can be obtained after 4:00 p.m. before the day of scheduled usage at the Police/Security 24-Hour window at Recitation Hall, unless other arrangements have been made with the Transportation Coordinator (absolutely no exceptions).
2. The individual driving the vehicle must pick up the packet and keys. A student ID and a signature are required for pick-up.
3. Packets consist of a Vehicle Request Form, keys to the vehicle, a credit card packet and a sheet explaining emergency procedures.
C. Where to Obtain Scheduled Vehicle(s)
1. All scheduled vehicles are located in the Krieg Lot located east of the Krieg Music building, unless otherwise notified by the transportation office.
2. Vehicles can be identified by the blue key tag, which lists the license plate number at the top of the tag.
3. When vehicle is picked up, mileage must be recorded on the Vehicle Request Form in the appropriate space. Return mileage must be recorded upon return of vehicle.
4. Vehicles are picked up and returned to this same location at the designated time of return. Vehicle must be returned on time. Do not assume the vehicle is not being used by any other group or organization.
5. Remove all trash, close all windows and lock doors. Don't leave gas tank empty!

Yes, Nick Saban did say goodbye to
Many people said – Who?
Few people knew had hardly heard of Les Miles, much less knew anything about the fourth year coach of the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Sure the Bo Schembechler protégé's name had surfaced when the rumblings that Saban may bolt surfaced, but after the Cowboys 33-7 defeat in the Alamo Bowl, Miles was brushed aside by the Tiger nation and LSU fans began to covet the likes of Butch Davis, Bobby Petrino and Jack Del Rio.
When word leaked out literally
minutes after the horn sounded in
Why you might ask?
Many of the arguments ranged from
his 28-21 record as Oklahoma State's head coach in four seasons to his
lackluster showing in the bowl game against Ohio State to the fact he was more
focused on offense and fielded weaker defensive squads, which has been the
Tigers M.O. under Saban for the past half-decade. The there was the argument
that Miles has been widely regarded as Lloyd Carr's successor at
If you reading this are one of those folks, then you might not care to read the remainder of this piece.
While we feel the way LSU handled the Saban fiasco as well as the coaching search that included flirts with Houston Nutt, R.C. Slocum and even an interview with LSU assistant coach and terminated Michigan State head man Bobby Williams, in this opinion, the powers-that-be on North Stadium Drive, may not have hit a grand slam with Miles, but definitely legged out a triple with this hire (in Skip Bertman terms).
For who was available at the time,
Miles is the best "fit" for LSU in terms of his background. An alum of one of
the grandest football programs in all of college football at
Using the Saban formula in the selection process, Miles coached at the number two school in a football rich state just as Saban did at Michigan State.he recruited well and enjoyed success in resurrecting the Cowboys program from the doldrums of the cellar of the Big 12, much like Saban did in East Lansing. Like Saban, Miles has NFL experience serving as an assistant for the Cowboys under Dave Campo.
While fans squirm at the mere
mention of a 28-21 record at OSU, Miles did enjoy plenty of success in
Miles takes a very business-like
approach to coaching a football team, much like Saban, but offers a much warmer
demeanor than the icy exterior Saban showed most of the time. The bottom line
is, LSU is getting a quality football coach, that can recruit, has coached on
the highest level, has produced results and looks to be putting together a
talented staff together to help coach this team. PLUS, he is a nice guy. While
some may take niceness for weakness, Miles isn't a pushover and will stress
discipline. But it will be nice to have a coach in
You take all of these ingredients and toss in plenty of wins and Miles will turn LSU's legged triple into a round tripper in no time.

Quote: Disruption of the sexual response and the digestive system are common negative results. Diarrhoea, constipation, and difficulty maintaining sexual arousal are typical examples. These are functions which are controlled by the parasympathetic nervous system and therefore suppressed by sympathetic arousal. Prolonged stress responses may result in chronic suppression of the immune system, leaving the sufferer vulnerable to infection by bacteria and virii.

Australian boxing champion Vic Darchinyan has described himself as a "loaded gun" cocked and ready to blow away Mexican challenger Tomas Rojas in this weekend's world title fight in the Californian desert.
Darchinyan and Rojas came face-to-face at a fiery pre-fight press conference on Wednesday inside the Agua Caliente Casino in Rancho Mirage, located two hours east of Los Angeles.
"I am a fully loaded gun and will shoot him down with my boxing skills," Darchinyan predicted.
Rojas lit a fire under Darchinyan at the media event when he boasted to the American press how he would strip Darchinyan of his World Boxing Council and World Boxing Association super flyweight belts with a win on Sunday (AEDT).
"It's a two-for-one for me because I will take two belts from Vic Darchinyan," Rojas told reporters.
Darchinyan, renowned for his ferocious punching in the ring and trash-talking of opponents outside, did not hold back.
"Team Rojas can believe what they want to believe," Darchinyan said.
"They say they are going to take me out and take my belts?
"How does he figure that when I have beaten every opponent he has fought?"
Darchinyan will enter the bout a heavy favourite despite losing a unanimous points decision in his last fight to Ghana's Joseph Agbeko.
Darchinyan stepped up a weight division in July to challenge International Boxing Federation bantamweight champ Agbeko, but against Rojas the Australian is back in the super flyweight division he has ruled.
In February, Darchinyan demolished Mexican champ Jorge Arce, beating him up so badly Arce could not get off his stool for the final round.
In 2007, Arce scored a technical knockout victory over Rojas.

how to get more from your supply chain
Leading companies around the world have a powerful weapon in their arsenal: a supply chain that ensures products and services are delivered to customers whenever and wherever promised. According to research by PwC's Performance Measurement Group (PMG), companies with high-performing supply chains not only outdo the competition on key operational metrics; they also perform better on key financial metrics, including annual sales growth, profitability, and asset turnover (Figure 1). These companies exhibit superior performance on five key supply chain metrics:
1. delivery against customer request date,
2. speed of response to changes in demand,
3. total supply chain management costs,
4. total inventory on hand,
5. cash-to-cash cycle time.
What are these companies doing that others aren't? Needless to say, their supply chains are geared to maximize cost savings and working capital efficiency, but that's mere table stakes in today's challenging business environment. Our research reveals that, regardless of industry, exceptional companies demand more. They take counterintuitive approaches to the way they design, operate and improve their supply chains—approaches that help them develop new sources of competitive advantage and grow the top line.

I just checked the upper UP and DP bolts, and they're tight. I have not checked the lower UP bolts yet. Yesterday on a trip to SLC from Evanston, my turbo started making weird noises like a plastic tie wrap hitting a fan blade whenever I entered the boost range above ~3-4 psi. It doesn't sound like an air leak. I just turned on this engine this afternoon in the parking lot with my ear close to the turbo and got a similar noise, but it's most pronounced when the engine is loaded.
Please don't tell me my turbo is dying....that would be bad.
