TENNESSEE HEAD COACH Pat Summitt (remarks about Candace Parker)
"Everyday of my life, I'm asked umpteen times about Candace's future. We want to give a definitive answer about the direction we are going in. With Candace's, her mom's and dad's (Sara and Larry), Jenny Moshak's, and Dr. (William) Youmans' approval, we have decided to redshirt Candace this year. We want a healthy Candace Parker. We wanted her on the floor this year, but we need for her to be ready and 100 percent."
(on Parker's rehab) "She's one of the best we've ever had (at rehabbing). Unfortunately, we've had more injuries than we would like. Her attitude and work ethic have been incredible. She has been in the weight room. It's not fun, believe me-I've been there, done that. She has shown a lot of maturity. She wants to go at it the right way and get positive results. We couldn't speed up the healing process. She knew what she has got to do. She takes care of business."
(on redshirting) "I'm comfortable with it. I'm looking forward to feeling healthy. That's the most important thing. The knee wasn't feeling 100 percent. This was my second major knee injury in two years."
"The knee's good. I'm fortunate to be at the University of Tennessee where they recognized (the injury) early."
"I felt in my heart that I would play this year. I feel like I'm a good healer. Jenny Moshak is great. There are no doubts in my mind. There are no regrets."
"It's out of my control. All I can do is do all that I can in the weight room."
(on how she can contribute to the team this year) "I have learned a lot. I have to stay positive. I'm still going to practice and get reps and help the team as best I can."
TENNESSEE HEAD COACH Pat Summitt:
(opening remarks about the South Carolina game) "I thought we started out of the blocks with a lot of energy. I liked our defensive intensity. I thought our inside and outside game was effective, and for the most part, our spacing was good. We didn't start the second half the way that I thought we should have. We got good minutes from several players. I thought Sybil Dosty got some good minutes, and it was good to get Dominique Redding and Sidney Spencer some minutes. That's what we wanted to do. I thought we were more effective in our half-court offense. That was valuable for us."
(on junior Shanna Zolman scoring her 1,000th career point as a Lady Vol) "Shanna had no idea. She looked startled when I went out on the court (to present her a commemorative ball), but that wasn't the only time that I had been out on the court. She was probably thinking, 'What's coach coming after me for?' She was excited. She has made a big contribution to our program. When you look at where she was as a freshman to her sophomore year to her junior year, she has worked really hard. She's got a beautiful stroke. She wasn't born with that. She has probably worked as hard as any kid that I've ever coached."
(on ball reversal) "When you have quick ball movement, that eliminates the thought process on the part of players. In the Vanderbilt game, we had 39 possessions in the half-court and never reversed the ball. Going three-on-five, we're able to break down defense with good ball reversal."
"We had nine post feeds at the half, and I'm sure we more than doubled that for the game. I thought our posts showed good composure and kicked the ball out when they needed to. They didn't always make their shots, but they made good decisions once they got the ball inside."
"I was pleased with our intensity. At South Carolina, I was disappointed in how we played. One player the last three games who has been very focused and who has had a big impact has been Loree Moore. When your point guard takes charge and sets the tempo, that's a huge force."
"I had no idea it was the 1,000-point mark. When they said that, I was surprised myself."
"It was extremely motivating (how close the last meeting was). We watched our own game film (from that game) for our scouting report, not only going over their sets again but what we did wrong to make it a close game. Our starts (tonight), beginning and second half, set the intensity of the game. That was very key for us."
"Coming into this game, leadership was the main focus for me, and that was been communicated across the board with those on the court and the coaching staff. That starts with the defense and carries over into the transition game."
"We wanted to do little things tonight such as transition defense and crowding the middle of the floor."
"Tennessee came out with something improved today, an impressive defensive effort especially, defense and rebounding. When you're getting 46 points of defense and rebounding, great teams do that. Tennessee played better this week than a few weeks ago. As a coach, that's what you want to see your team doing."
"I thought (Loree) Moore did a good job denying our point guard. I thought Tennessee played extremely well. We have a young basketball team, and this was an opportunity to learn that defense and rebounding win games and championships."
"Moore's defense is much improved. She single-handedly denied our fast break. She did a fantastic job."
"It's not real easy (to play here). You just have to come in and focus and not pay attention to the crowd and any negative stuff that can go against you. I just tried to keep the team together."

1 June 15, 1975: Dallas Tornado at New York Cosmos
This was Pele's first match for the Cosmos. He signed in the middle of the season, and CBS broadcast his first game. Over 22,000 screaming fans showed up -- at the time the largest crowd to watch an American soccer match. They saw a great game, and Pele scored the tying goal.
Before the match there was a ceremony where Kyle Rote Jr. and Pele exchanged flags. Kyle accidentally held the Brazilian flag upside down. Kyle told me that for the next ten years, people kept coming up to him and saying "Do you know you held the Brazilian flag upside down?" And he had to keep saying "Yes, I know. I know. I know."
2 August 12, 1975: Seattle Sounders at Portland Timbers
This playoff game was the culmination of a year long love affair between Portland and its new team. The fans hung on every twist and turn of this match. When the Timbers won in overtime, the fans poured onto the field and hugged the players.
There is whole chapter about the 1975 Portland Timbers in David Tossell's book Playing For Uncle Sam: The Brits Story of the North American Soccer League.
3 May 2, 1976: Chicago Sting at New York Cosmos
This match at a packed Yankee Stadium was on HBO. Several great Pele shots were saved by Chicago goalkeeper Mervyn "The Magician" Cawston before Pele finally scored the tying goal. But the fans went home disappointed when Steve Peplow scored the winner for the Sting in sudden death overtime.
4 August 24, 1976: Toronto Metros-Croatia at Tampa Bay Rowdies
The winner of this semifinal match went to the Soccer Bowl. The Rowdies were the defending NASL champions, and they hadn't lost at home throughout the 1976 season. They had even beaten Toronto handily a month earlier in Toronto...How overconfident were the Rowdies? Several days before this match the team made its airplane reservations to Seattle for the Soccer Bowl. The Toronto players heard about that, and they were not amused!
Unfortunately, I only have found the first half of this match on tape. However, Toronto won 2-0, and both goals were scored in the first half. The legendary Portuguese player Eusebio scored one of those goals.
5 June 5, 1977: Dallas Tornado at Los Angeles Aztecs
The legendary George Best played the last five years of his career in America. He had some great moments in the NASL, including this game. The halftime interview during this game is with Elton John. He says that he is the one who convinced George Best to come to America.
6 August 14, 1977: Seattle Sounders at Minnesota Kicks
I've seen a lot of soccer matches, and I've never seen such a dumb play to end a match. This was a playoff game in front of 50,000 fans. Minnesota held a 1-0 lead late in the game. Seattle tied it with a minute to go. Then in sudden death overtime, Minnesota's Mark Bailey took possession of the ball near his own goal. He tried to pass it to his goalkeeper, but missed!
7 August 13, 1978: Detroit Express at Ft. Lauderdale Strikers
Trevor Francis was one of the great English players who came to America to play in the NASL. In this playoff match Francis scored two goals, but the Strikers won 4-3 in a thrilling shootout.
8 July 11, 1979: Chicago Sting at Minnesota Kicks
Nothing special happened in the first half of this game. Then in the second half all hell broke loose. Tied 4-4, the teams went to a shootout. The Sting felt that the referee let a Kicks player take more than five seconds, and the team went crazy. Sting owner Lee Stern even ran on the field and started shoving the referee. After this game the NASL ruled that the stadium clock would count down the seconds in the shootout.
9 September 1, 1979: Vancouver Whitecaps at New York Cosmos
This semifinal playoff is generally regarded as the greatest match in NASL history. The Cosmos were the two-time defending champions. They seemed invincible. But after nearly four hours in the hot sun, Vancouver outhustled and outlasted the champions. What a game.
10 September 8, 1982: Seattle Sounders at Ft. Lauderdale Strikers
This was the second game of a "best of three" playoff series. Ft. Lauderdale had won the first game. In this game Ray Hudson, Thomas Rongan, and the rest of the Strikers had a 3-2 lead with only seconds left in regulation. The Ft. Lauderdale fans were confidently chanting "Soccer Bowl...Soccer Bowl." If Ft. Lauderdale had just booted it upfield, the game probably would have been over. But Seattle intercepted a pass, centered the ball, and Roger Davies headed it into the net. Then the Sounders won it in overtime.
Unfortunately, I have not found a tape of the third game back in Seattle. The Sounders won that one to go to the Soccer Bowl.

Richmond Shepard, at 83, is the world's oldest active mime. Inspired by the classic 1945 French film Children of Paradise, Mr. Shepard studied mime, wrote books on the subject, and, intriguingly, created a piece that corrected the fiction of the famous film. That film was the only one permitted to be made in Nazi-occupied France, and was intended to show that French culture was still alive and well. The film was about the life of a famous mime, Gaspard Debureau, who flourished in the 1820s. Mr. Shepard went back to a contemporary biography of Debureau to show his complex character. This show has been expanded several times since the 1970s and now appears at Theater for the New City.
It's better than a silent film, with two hours' worth of beautiful music (from pianist Harrison Wade) and lots of gymnastics, dance and mime. Mostly, Debureau (Chris Douros) performs several emotional mime routines which were transcribed in his biography and also appeared in Marcel Carné's film. Debureau is charmed by a store window mannequin (Denise M. Whalen), fights an enemy who comes back to haunt him (Marcus Watson), witnesses a racy can-can dance, and much more. Even the standard bit of looking at oneself in the mirror (played by Nathaniel Moore) comes off as fresh and amusing. Debureau, a refugee from Bohemia, began as a tightrope walker, met Napoleon, and ended up performing under an oppressive contract with impressario Bertrand (Peter De Paula). Still in love with his performing partner and wife Louisa (Kendall Rileigh), the death of his children and other factors push him to have affairs with many other ladies from Marie (Jenny Chang) down to the new mannequin, Monique (Denise M. Whalen). Really, he has never forgotten his first love, the Czech lady Garance (Jenny Chang); her mystery lingers throughout the whole performance. Jumping around chronologically from Debureau's career-threatening mishap (even as France yearns for Republican government in 1830) back to Bohemia and in and out of white-faced stage magic (at one point, Debureau nurses a baby) Children of Paradise can't help but make you smile.
Several of the company trained with Richmond Shepard, who started America's first ensemble mime troupe in 1951. The whole piece showed me why people are still so dedicated to this art. The fight scenes, choreographed by Marcus Watson, involve somersaults, ducking through opponents' legs, and much wonderful playfulness. All of the fourteen performers are graceful and were good in their brief speaking interludes, too.

USC Travels to the Desert
March 2, 1998
LOS ANGELES -- The USC women's basketball team (11-14 overall, 6-10 in the Pacific-10 Conference), under first-year head coach Chris Gobrecht and coming off a split with the Washington schools, takes to the road for its final 2 games of the season, playing at Arizona (19-6, 12-4) on Thursday (March 5) and at Arizona State (10-15, 6-10) on Saturday (March 7). Both games are at 7 p.m. (MST). Despite coming off of a 20-9 season, the USC team Gobrecht inherited lost a deep senior class and has suffered through a tremendous amount of injuries this season. In spite of the problems, Gobrecht has the shorthanded Women of Troy among the league's top defensive teams in her first year back in the Pac-10. USC assistant coach Traci Nemechek, Arizona's coordinator of basketball operations from 1996-97, will make her first return to Tucson this weekend since joining the USC staff.
RANKINGS -- Arizona is No. 9 in the AP poll. USC and Arizona State are not ranked.
ARIZONA -- The Wildcats, under seventh-year coach Joan Bonvicini, have won 8 of their last 10 games but are coming off of a loss to Stanford. The Wildcats are led by senior forward Adia Barnes, who is a averaging a team-high 21.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game. Senior center Marte Alexander is scoring at a 12.8 clip. Sophomore guard Lisa Griffith is averaging 7.5 points per game and has made a team-high 47 3-pointers. USC holds a 33-6 lead against Arizona since 1978, but the Wildcats have won 4 of the last 5. The Wildcats, who beat USC earlier this season, will be looking for only their second-ever season sweep of the Women of Troy. USC last won in Tucson a year ago, 87-72. USC last lost in Tucson in 1996, 78-73.
ARIZONA STATE -- The Sun Devils, under second-year coach Charli Turner Thorne, have lost 5 of 6 and were swept last weekend by the Bay Area schools. Arizona State is led by senior guard Stephanie Freeman, who is averaging a team-high 14.3 points and 2.9 steals per game. Sophomore center Rachel Holt leads the Sun Devils with 5.0 rebounds per game and she is scoring 10.8 points per game as well. The Sun Devils are last in the Pac-10 in field goal percentage defense (.466), 3-point field goal percentage defense (.377) and second to last in opponent rebounds (38.2), just ahead of USC. USC is 37-3 against Arizona State since 1978 and has won 9 in a row. USC last lost to Arizona State in Tempe in 1992, 63-62.

USC'S FIRST 1998 MEETING WITH ARIZONA AND ARIZONA STATE -- USC earned a split in its first weekend of Pac-10 play, beating Arizona State, 68-55, on Jan. 2 before falling in a tough battle against then-No. 10 Arizona, 81-69, on Jan. 4. Against the Sun Devils, junior guard Kristin Clark had a team-high 14 points and 3 players reached double-figures in rebounds. Freshman forward Tashara Carter added 12 points and joined junior center Adrain Williams and sophomore forward Tiffany Washington with 10 rebounds apiece. Sophomore guard Kiyoko Miller added a career-high 12 points. After taking a 29-27 halftime lead, the Women of Troy quickly went up by 10, as a steal and lay-up by Clark made it 39-29 with 16:38 to play. USC had a double-digit lead for nearly all of the second half. Clark led USC again against Arizona with 22 points, but the Wildcats, led by Adia Barnes' 30 points, were too much to handle. Clark also had a career-high 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals and freshman forward Whitney Houser scored 14 points off the bench. USC took a 20-16 lead with 10:02 to play in the first half, but Arizona used a 20-4 run to take control of the game at 36-24 with 3:05 to go. Arizona led at halftime, 46-33, and by as many as 19 points in the second half. USC never got the deficit back into single digits.
LAST WEEK -- For the sixth time this season, USC earned a split in its weekend of Pac-10 play. USC first upset No. 23 Washington, 65-63, on Friday (Feb. 27), but fell flat against Washington State and lost, 68-65, on Sunday (March 1). Against the Huskies, USC was led by 20 points from junior center Adrain Williams and 19 from junior guard Kristin Clark. The win was USC's first win over a ranked opponent since beating No. 14 Oregon State, 67-66, on March 2, 1996. For USC first-year coach Chris Gobrecht, the game marked her first win against her former team of 11 years since taking the USC job. Gobrecht coached Washington from 1986-96 and saw her USC team fall to the Huskies earlier in the year in Seattle in a tough 67-60 loss. USC led by as many as 13 points in the first half but Washington cut into the lead and trailed only 30-24 at halftime. The Huskies took their first lead of the second half at 36-34 with 15:03 to go. USC went back up and led by as many as 10 points at 52-42 with 7:48 left to play. Washington rallied and took a 57-56 lead with 2:39 to play on a Hall jumper. USC scored 5 straight points to take a 4-point lead with 1:30 to go. Two Clark free throws with less than 10 seconds to play gave USC a 65-61 lead, clinching the win. USC only had 10 turnovers in the win. Against the Cougars, Clark had a team-high 18 points and Williams had 16 points and 3 blocks, but it wasn't enough for the win. Washington State was led by senior center Yvonne Kunze's 20 points and 13 rebounds. The Women of Troy held a small lead for most of the first half and went into halftime up 29-24. Leading 43-39 with 13:40 to play, USC used a 7-0 run over 2 minutes to take a 50-39. The Cougars, however, battled back, outscoring the Women of Troy 17-2, taking a 56-52 lead with 5:27 to play. The Cougars built their lead to 64-56 with 1:56 left. USC rallied, however, and when Clark hit her fourth trey of the game with 18 seconds left, it brought USC to within 66-65. Guard Tricia Lamb sank 2 free throws to make it 68-65 with 12 second left. USC had a final chance to send the game into overtime, but Clark's 12th 3-point attempt of the game went long with 3 seconds left, sealing the Cougars' win.
Who's hot in the last 4 games
TURNED OVER -- USC's turnovers are down from a year ago as it is averaging 18.4 turnovers, compared to 21.2 last season. USC is also forcing more turnovers. Opponents are averaging 24.7 this year compared to 22.7 last year. USC has had less turnovers than its opponents in 21 of 25 games. USC is 11-10 in games when it has less turnovers than its opponents and 0-4 when it has more. On the year, USC has 159 less turnovers than its opponents (459-618).
BEEN CAUGHT STEALING -- As a team, USC is averaging 11.2 steals per game, a full steal more per game than last year. Kristin Clark leads USC with 2.7 steals per game, while Kim Clark is averaging 1.9, Adrain Williams is averaging 1.8 and Tashara Carter 1.7. Overall, USC has 280 steals compared to 206 for its opposition.
IN OUR DEFENSE -- USC Coach Chris Gobrecht's defensive emphasis is paying big dividends. USC's turnover margin (6.4) leads the league, its scoring defense is third (66.9) and its team steals (11.2) are fourth.
WHERE's the 3-point line? -- The Women of Troy have shackled opponents from long range. USC is allowing only 2.1 makes from 3-point land in 6.6 attempts per game. Last season, opponents averaged 4.9 makes in 15.9 attempts. In fact, USC's Kristin Clark is 49-of-160 from 3-point land compared to 52-of-165 for USC's opponents. In the Pac-10, Clark and USC's opponents have 36 treys apiece.
Clark climbing the RECORD ladder -- USC junior guard Kristin Clark's 49 treys are a career best for a season, as are her 160 attempts. The latter mark is a USC record, breaking Tammy Story's total of 143 in 1991. Clark needs 8 3-pointers in USC's last 2 games to break the school's season record, held by Story with 56 in 1991. Clark just passed Karon Howell (44) for second place on the season list. For her career, Clark is USC's third all-time leading 3-point shooter with 97 makes. She trails only Jody Anton (103) and Story (110).
At the starting LINE -- Of USC's 11 players, 9 have started at least once. Kristin Clark is the only player who has started every game and she has started USC's last 54 games. In fact, because of injuries and other reasons, USC Coach Chris Gobrecht has been forced to use 10 different starting lineups in 25 games, although the lineup of guards Clark and Kiyoko Miller, forwards Tashara Carter and Tiffany Washington and center Adrain Williams has started 12 of the last 18 games. The only USC players not to have made a start this year are Jodi Parriott, who is out for the year after playing in only 2 games, and walk-on Rachel Whitlow, who has played in only 3 games.
FIND THE MAP HOME -- USC is 2-7 on the road so far this year. USC is also 3-2 at neutral sites (5-9 overall) when away from USC. After opening the Pac-10 season with 5 of its first 7 games at home at the Lyon Center, USC is finishing with 5 of its last 7 on the road.
WONDER TWINS -- When identical twin sisters Kristin and Kim Clark took the court for the opening tip against UC Santa Barbara on Dec. 4, it marked the first time the pair started together in a Women of Troy lineup. The last time USC had twin sisters start together was April 1, 1984, when Pam and Paula McGee started together in the NCAA Championship game. The Clarks have started together 7 times, most recently at UCLA and USC is 3-4 in those games. The Clarks' highest combined scoring output is 31 points, against Oregon State on Feb. 6 when Kim had 16 and Kristin had 15.
Season finishes -- With only 2 games remaining, USC is guaranteed its sixth losing season in the program's history (beginning when scholarships were first given out in 1976-77). USC has finished above .500 16 times. The Women of Troy need wins in both of their final games to avoid their lowest win total since earning only 8 wins under Marianne Stanley in the 1989-90 season. USC's last losing season came in 1995-96 when the Women of Troy finished 13-14 under Fred Williams. USC needs at least 1 win in its final 2 games to avoid tying its worst ever Pac-10 mark, which is 6-12, set under Marianne Stanley in the 1989-90 season. USC's second-worst mark is 8-10, set twice, last in 1995-96 under Fred Williams.
PLAQUES AND SUCH -- Adrain Williams and Tiffany Washington earned All-Tournament honors at the Boise State Christmas Classic. Kristin Clark earned both Dial Soap Classic and Pac-10/Big East Challenge All-Tournament honors.

A Muslim student attending Oregon State University decided he wanted to strike a blow for Islam against the infidel Americans, but, alas, his attempt failed to detonate. Mohamed Osman Mohamud, age 19, was in contact with someone he thought was located in northwest Pakistan, but it turned out the man was located at FBI headquarters. Mohamed spent months planning an important strike against the forces of Christianity and zeroed in on Christmas trees. After all, first one wipes out Xmas trees, then one wipes out Santa Claus and one has transformed millions of American children into doubters in their religion. If there are no Xmas trees and no Santa, how can there really be a Jesus Christ. But, for that matter, how can there be a Mohmmed? Ms. Mohamud did not realize the "explosives laden van" was simply a van supplied to him by the FBI in order to demonstrate how ineffectual are most Muslims in America who attempt to do anything that involves using bombs.
We are pleased to report that no Xmas trees were damaged and the tree lighting ceremony went smoothly. However, we did notice in the crown a band of Tea Party folk who wanted to strike a blow against 'the government." Did their anger against "the government" include the FBI which is part of "the government?"

What to do with my German lawn ornament?
So recently, a family friend wrecked a 92 325i sedan and, knowing I'm a BMW enthusiast, decides to give it to me. The only thing I know about it is that it's got 101k miles and at the very least needs a new hood, front bumper, passenger fender, headlights and a grill. That's the jist of the damage from the wreck. So here I am with this 20 year old junked 325i and I have no idea what to do with it. Should I invest any money into it or just sell it as it is? What would you do? Please shed some insight, much appreciated. The engine runs fine and it seems that if the damage were repaired it would be fine, the interior is in good shape, but it would never be worth what I put into it, so I'm in a bit of a pickle. Any input on this situation?
used parts? - go to a u pick it junk yard and get best costs on the parts
I guess part out is the best option.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Bimmer App
Build a cheap track/drift/auto-x car. Couple hundred in junkyard parts to fix the cosmetics, a few hundred in suspension upgrades ... drive the crap out of it and you can always turn a profit when you no longer want it.
+1 part it out, sell some stuff on ebay
How bad is it post pics

A new oral vaccine developed by Agricultural Research Service scientists may help U.S. cattle producers cut their losses from a disease that costs more than $1 billion annually. The cost of bovine respiratory disease (BRD), commonly known as shipping fever, is more than all other cattle diseases combined.
The new oral vaccine may be commercially available in about three years, according to ARS veterinarian Robert E. Briggs at the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa. Briggs and co-developer, ARS microbiologist Fred M. Tatum, conducted a field trial by feeding the newly-developed oral vaccine to calves considered to be high and low risk for developing shipping fever. High-risk calves were shipped from Arkansas to a New Mexico State University feedlot; low risk animals were shipped a shorter distance from a New Mexico ranch to the feedlot.
Deaths among the high-risk calves fed the new vaccine were reduced from 16 to four percent. Pasteurella haemolytica--the main culprit behind shipping fever--killed 16 percent of the nonvaccinates but none of the vaccinated animals. In the group of low- risk calves fed the oral vaccine, the average weight gain increased 25 percent during the first 28 days on feed. The oral dose also protected the animals within four days instead of the usual 10 to 14 days required by current injectable vaccines.
The cost of bovine respiratory disease extends beyond animal deaths. Other losses are sustained in the form of reduced weight gains, lower feed efficiency, antibiotics, trimming costs at the packer, and poor quality meat and hide products. Injectable vaccines often produce lesions in animals at the site of the injection. These lesions could be avoided by use of oral or intranasal vaccination.
The research was funded, in part, by the Biotechnology Research and Development Consortium (BRDC) in Peoria, Illinois. The BRDC has applied for a patent on the oral vaccine.

The Janet Echelman keynotes promote the need to experiment and use unlikely materials in order to discover hidden potential. Echelman strongly believes that her own experiences of rejection motivated her to pursue her creative dreams, which have led to her current successes.
Echelman is now a highly sought-after sculptor who has been approached by numerous city planners and urban developers to develop her sculptural works. In terms of her education, Echelman graduated with degrees in psychology and painting from Harvard; although, she never studied sculpture. Echeman's loyalty to experimentation is clearly echoed both in her artwork, as well as her career choices. As an artist and Principal at Studio Echelman and a Guggenheim Fellow, Echelman understands the trials and errors every artist must face before they finally reach success -- as she experienced them first hand.
Echelman's artistic talents were commissioned on an international scale, debuting at both the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games and the 2010 Biennial of the Americas. As a result of her artistic endeavors and passion towards taking risks, Echelman has been the recipient of fellowships from the 'Rotary International Foundation,' and 'Harvard Graduate School of Design Loeb.'
Currently, Echelman holds the position of Resident in Visual Arts at the American Academy in Rome and was selected to speak at the TED2011 conference. Without experimentation and risks individuals will never see their potential and hidden creative ability, this theme is echoed throughout the Janet Echelman keynotes.

Daryl, Jessica and I took a trip this last week. We went to New York to attend our nephew's wedding.
We also met our great niece Alysha for the first time..
While there we also visited an apple orchard,
And a very cool car museum,
then after leaving my sister in laws house, we went to Niagara Falls..
Where we took tons of photos,
Took a ride on Maid Of The Mist, a boat tour at the bottom of the falls.. And we went on the "Cave of The Winds" tour also (No cave.. but amazing closeness to the falls!)
|The American falls - as seen from the observation deck
|Jessie and Daryl on Maid of The Mist
|The Maid of The Mist boat, on one of the tours below the falls.. the Rainbow was just beautiful.
|Daryl LOVED Cave of the Winds - Hurricane deck.. He was thoroughly soaked when he was done.
After leaving NY, we drove down through Ohio, and some small Amish communities. We visited Heini's Cheese Chalet.. They make cheese there, and had TONS of different kinds for sale. They also had a candy/fudge shop and we got to take a tour of the cheese making facility. It was a "no cheese making" day the day we were there, but our tour guide Atlee, explained all the processes to us very well..
|Rush hour..... :)
|So glad we stopped in there!
It was a really wonderful trip, and a memorable time for all three of us. We drove through 8 states.. I got spoons for my collection from 5 of them. (Totally forgot to get one from Pennsylvania and Tennessee.. :( )
To see all the photos from our trip.. (there are a lot) Visit the link below.

About the CIO Summit
The CIO Summit is the foremost gathering of CIOs and senior IT Executives in Asia, providing a number of platforms for sharing ideas, advisory services to better assist them in their jobs, as well as establishing a peer-to-peer community.
The event provides thought-provoking and actionable insights to CIOs and Senior IT Executives through a mix of presentations and case studies. Technology heads will have the opportunity to hear about the latest global trends, learn from ICT best practices and get involved in general discussions with colleagues and peers during the dedicated networking breaks.
Once again the agenda and theme of the event will be drawn up in close consultation with a panel of Asia's leading enterprise IT leaders assembled by Fairfax Business Media Asia and IDC Asia/Pacific. In short it's a programme for CIO's by CIOs.
Additional insight will be gleaned from IDC's annual C-suite Barometer survey to help validate and drive key themes and topics based on levels of importance to not only the CIO, but also to key stakeholders across the enterprise.
IT Excellence Awards
As part of the partnership, Fairfax Business Media Asia (under its CIO Asia and MIS Asia titles) will once again work with IDC Asia/Pacific on IT Excellence Awards (ITX), an annual recognition programme honouring the enterprise IT leaders who have made the greatest strategic and operational contributions to their respective business organisations. Visit here to learn more about the awards programme.
Being a CIO in the New Business World of Tech+ Transformation
As the business landscape and the technology businesses rely on have transformed in recent years, CIOs have become faced with new types of challenges that were not part of the job only a few years back. This year's CIO Summit will explore the new types of challenges that CIOs are faced with as a result of 3rd platform technologies – or what IDC refers to as the 4 pillars of technology: Cloud, Big Data, Mobility and Social.
All these technologies are not only changing the technology solutions that CIOs need to implement, they are also fundamentally affecting the role of IT in the organisation, the tasks and responsibilities of the IT department, and the skill sets required by the CIO and the IT staff.
The Summit will explore some of the key areas that in particular affect CIOs today. Among these are issues such as:
- Change management
- Contract and relationship management
- Talent and skill set management
- Governance and policy management
Who Should Attend
This event is specially designed for CIOs, Senior IT executives, IT Directors, CTOs, Head of IT and other senior executives from a cross-section of industries.
For any registration queries, please contact Noel Wong, E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com or Tel: +65 6395 8021

Can't hold this in and keep it quiet any longer,I've fallen in and now this feeling's getting Stronger. YouTakeMyBreathAway♥
When my time comes,Forget the wrongs that i've done. Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed. & don't resent me,For when you're feeling empty Keep me in your Memory. Leave out all the rest...Leave out all the rest..
Memories can be neglected,but impossible to Erase.
I don't wan't your apoligie's,I don't wan't an arrestacution,I wanna hear that you're wrong,but I don't wan't resalution. I wan't justice but I don't care for peace.

So you can take the sighn on down as a nice jesture.Man kind likes to go to war, It's in our fallen Nature.
Maybe these nations,corporations,races,insecurities,Well it it's an aliation,But DON"TWORRY,It'll be your turn soon,So plot your revenge as you clean your knife wound. And "I'll forgive you"Is not an option.It's much uncomfortable,it's much easier to be miserable,and bonerable.You can say that the weak of the Religious,But there is no justice or Peace,There is only Forgivness.

Dolphins Throttle Jaguars 24-3 As Tannehill, Bush Thrive
Oh hooray! The Dolphins beat a pathetic two-win team to prolong our chances for an evenly average season. Fantastic. Ryan Tannehill played flawlessly, Reggie Bush threw down his anaconda sexual organ and the Dolphins trampled a pathetic Jaguars team 24-3. Woooooooooooo!
The Dolphins played a virtually perfect game on offense and defense -- about three weeks too late. But, still, it was fun to watch and beat up on a lesser opponent with two wins and no quarterback. Luckily, we survived the possibility of a 'Chad Henne revenge game' and Jeff Ireland's reign of terror continues for another week.
This game was positively narcoleptic for three quarters but we'll hit the highlights anyway:
- The Dolphins beat a lesser opponent handily, Chad Henne played like the Chad Henne we all know and hate and Ryan Tannehill had a bounceback performance.
- The game started off with an enormous amount of pathetic football. So much so the Surgeon General considered the game itself a Class A illegal narcoleptic because of the sleep-inducing non-action. Congressional subcommittees met to discuss its relevance for days. Ultimately, action picked up once a Tannehill fumble deep in our own territory yielded an opportunity for the Jags to go up 10-3. Unfortunately for our future draft prospects, the Jags are JUST as stupid as our own team and committed a rare 'illegal-lineman-downfield-penalty' that negated a 22-yard Henne to Justin Blackmon pass that would have put the Jags up 10-3. Instead, the Jags went for it on 4th and 1 and got nowhere. SMART FOOTBALL!

- The Dolphins defense played fantastically as three fourth-down stops in their own territory held the Jaguars out of the endzone. In addition, the run defense showed up again and was Berlin Wall-esque against the Jaguars running backs. That's great if you like that sort of thing where being 6-10 means more to you than being 5-11.
- After weeks of boring offensive football, the Dolphins finally exhibited a bit of creativity via some cleverly designed plays. Jorvorskie Lane got open for a TD late in the second quarter on a well-designed play that had Tannehill fake on the read-option, leaving Lane for a short TD catch. The Dolphins also used the running game effectively to set up play-action downfield. Tannehill was great, utilizing his legs to move the ball downfield when necessary and finishing 22-of-28 for 220 yards and 2 TDs. His 79 percent completion percentage was best for his rookie campaign -- as were his 52 rushing yards on the afternoon. A stellar game all around for the kid.
- Reggie 'LaMontelle Pussyhammer' returned with a vengeance. Dude was nasty, especially on his 53 yard run in the third quarter as ass just flew into his closet voluntarily. Aside from that, it was the penile anger he ran with on nearly every touch. LaMontelle took on prospective tacklers with the vengeance of a guy that got too drunk on the first date to have sex - then actually got a chance to come back another night and make good on his penis.
- We can't gloss over the FUCKING STUPID AND COMPLETELY NONSENSICAL IDEA to fake a FG when you're playing a terribly shitty team. The laughability of Fasano trying to be so slick that no one would notice him out on the flat, Fields thinking he could actually throw a viable pass to him and then them trying to execute this STUPID idea only to have it laughably fail was wonderful. Come on, Philbin. You're a Scooby Doo villain and all but even YOU didn't think you would get away with THAT, did you? Easily the dumbest Dolphins play of 2012.
- Brian Hartline achieved his first 1,000 yard season as an NFL receiver, which is something we might care about if it weren't for him being any other NFL team's No. 3 receiver at best (he only has ONE TD on the season) and the fact he resembles a chipmunk. Chipmunks aren't great football wide receivers, typically.
Ultimately, this was a big, fat 'W' on the Dolphins schedule since the start of the season. If Henne had gone nuts on the team we'd chalk it up to being SOOOOO Dolphins but since he didn't it's just an 'ooookay' win. The one positive takeaway was that Tannehill played very well against the NFL's No. 31-ranked defense. That felt nice.
But we will not know what this kid is all about until we put some REAL (i.e. not-Jeff-Ireland-selected) weapons around him. The Miami Dolphins next take on the Buffalo Bills at Sun Life Stadium this Sunday. Kickoff is at 1 p.m.

Activist Clare Hanrahan may leave the front lines, but her voice still rings out - by Jason Sandford, Citizen-Times
In her younger days, she marched with garbage workers in Memphis, Tenn., in the wake of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination.
She has shaken her fist at the front gates of bomb-making factories. She has chanted with immigrants demanding fair treatment. She has stood silent vigil with women advocating for an end to war.
And she once trespassed on the grounds of the Fort Benning, Ga., military base, home to a military training school commonly known as the School of the Americas — an offense for which she spent six months in federal prison in 2002.
"At one point in my life, I thought if I screamed loud enough and worked hard enough and was unrelenting in my kind of advocating and demanding, I could make change," Hanrahan said.

On August 15th, the second phase of Secure Flight will roll out. What does that mean?
Read Transcript (txt, 1Kb)
Read Transcript (txt, 1Kb)
It just means that in addition to making sure the name on your government ID matches your reservation, domestic airlines will also start asking for your birth date and gender. I should also point out that Secure Flight will be phased in over the next few months, so you may or may not even be asked for this information the next time you travel. The program will not be fully in place until 2010.
The Secure Flight program is a "behind the scenes" security feature that is intended to:
- Identify known and suspected terrorists;
- Match individuals against government terrorist watch lists keeping travel safe.
- Facilitate passenger air travel; and
- Protect individuals' privacy.
Follow the links below for a plethora of information on Secure Flight
- What's In a Name Blog Post 5/15/2009
- Secure Flight Q&A Blog Post 6/2/2009
- Top 5 Secure Flight Questions Answered
- Frequently Asked Questions from travelers, aircraft operators, and travel agencies.
(From the questions we've read, it seems that passengers are concerned they're going to get to the checkpoint and be told they can't fly since the name on their boarding pass is not an exact match to the name on their government ID. No worries! Secure Flight does not affect the way you are screened. The name you give the airline while booking your travel is used to perform watch list matching before your boarding pass is even issued, so small differences on IDs and boarding passes should not impact travel.)

"John Fahey. Leo Kottke. And most of Chet Atkins. Chet Atkins is a huge influence of mine." So noted Atlantan six-string virtuoso Kaki King when asked to name some of her guitar deities (revisit Earache! music blog "Turn the Other Cheek," Oct. 31, 2008). A gifted instrumentalist, the petite guitarist opened her mouth and, to the surprise of some, sang aloud on that year's Dreaming of Revenge, yet with 2012's sixth LP, Glow, King let her fleet fingers do most of the talking. You won't be when your jaw drops open. – Raoul Hernandez

Meet Coronation Street's new resident Rana who sets her sights on a Weatherfield residentAlya Nazir's friend will arrive on the cobbles in February
Friday, January 08, 2016
CORONATION Street will be introducing a new character to Weatherfield very soon.
Fans of the ITV soap will see Rana, an old uni friend of Alya Nazir's arrive on the cobbles to catch up with her.
However, the new character, played by Bhavna Limbachia, will soon turn her attention to Alya's brother Zeedan.
Rana's arrival on the street will play out on screen in February and is set to leave a lasting impression.
We can't wait!
Speaking about Bhavna's new role, producer Stuart Blackburn said: "Rana is sharp, funny, utterly gorgeous and not a little manipulative."
Celebrity soap cameos
Suggesting that Zeedan (Qasim Akhtar) better watch out, Stuart added: "She's a girl who likes to get her own way.

Crossover: BtVS/Evil Dead
Disclaimer: Since I am a poor chickadee with no wealth to speak of, I think it's safe to say that neither BtVS nor Evil Dead are mine. ^^;
Written for: TtH August Fic A Day Challenge
Summary: He'd seen the girl a couple'a times in the courtyard where they did their exercises, and he'd known instantly she wasn't like the rest of the whackos in this place; she moved too smoothly, and though she had a kinda haunted look on her face, her eyes were always alert, always watching, especially at night.
Author's notes: Set before season 1 for BtVS and AU after the end of AoD for Evil Dead, with a hint of the game 'Evil Dead: Regeneration' thrown in.
He'd seen the girl a couple'a times in the courtyard where they did their exercises, and he'd known instantly she wasn't like the rest of the whackos in this place; she moved too smoothly, and though she had a kinda haunted look on her face, her eyes were always alert, always watching, especially at night. He knew what that was like, cause he was the same way; night was bad, and dangerous. Night was when the dead came back to life, and as the old professor one who started this whole shebang had said, had 'license' to possess the living. 'License' his ass, since Ash'd been possessed once himself, and he was pretty damn sure he hadn't given any kinda license to 'em, but that wasn't the point. The point was that he knew the girl didn't belong in this joint any more than he did. He wasn't crazy, and neither was she. Now if only he could actually talk to her.
He'd seen enough to know the girl was in pretty good standing with the docs; she was always quiet and playin' nice, doing what they said without making trouble. It meant that she had pretty much free roam of the place. Ash, on the other hand- he'd been on lockdown since almost day one. He hadn't come quietly into this place, he sure didn't play quietly while stuck there, cause why should he? He knew what he'd seen, what'd happened, and he wasn't crazy. The Deadites were real, and they'd taken his sister, his friends, his girlfriend, his hand, and his life. They'd yanked him through time, screwed over everything he cared about, and then dumped him in a future where he was wanted for the murder of everyone they'd taken from him. Course, they were also the reason he was locked up in a nuthouse instead of a maximum security prison- the docs'd taken one look at his story about soul eating demons and time travel and declared him crazy, and that was how he'd ended up out here, at a hospital that specialized in the delusional crazies apparently. And if his hunch was right- the non-crazies who'd actually faced demons before. He just couldn't get to her to ask, cause'a being on lockdown. The damn orderlies watched him like a hawk, not lettin' him outta their sights, or lettin' him run free or mingle with the other patients.
Ash tried bein' subtle, first- or his version of subtle, at least. He tried staring at her, to get her attention, but that just seemed to creep the kid out, and after a couple'a days, the orderlies threatened to put him in solitude again if he didn't' cut it out. He tried settin' up near her during exercises, but the first time he tried, she booked it halfway across the courtyard. Trying to sit near her at a meal got the same treatment, and another threat from the orderlies, and Ash'd snarled at them before grabbing his plate and shoving off to another table. He wasn't stupid; he'd seen 'em talking to her before, probably warning her away from the crazy killer. He'd be damned if they were gonna stop him though. She wouldn't actually talk to him, fine. He'd figure out some other way.
Ash watched her as best he could, waiting for an opening, trying to figure out a way to get her alone, but she avoided him like the plague, and part of him couldn't blame her. After all, she was just a kid, not even seventeen, and he knew he looked like something of a freak, with his scars and missing a hand. With the things the damn orderlies musta been tellin' her about the crazy old chainsaw murderer, he couldn't blame her at all, but it made it a pain in the ass to try to talk to her. The only time he ever saw her for long periods of time was when she went to the computer room, since she had computer privileges for good behavior. And that- that was when he figured it out.
The next week, for the first time since he'd been shoved into this dump and left to rot, Ash behaved. He acted like the picture perfect patient, jumping when the docs said jump, and not even arguing when they gave him his medicine- not that he took it of course, he just let them think he did, instead'a makin' a big fuss like he normally did. The docs were wary, and the orderlies were downright suspicious, but when he'd been good for the entire week, they had to take him off lockdown- and suddenly he had access, although limited, to the computer room.
The next day, he waited for her to go in first. If she did like normal, she'd be in there for an hour or so, apparently doing some computer mail thing with her friends out in the real world, or something like that. Not wanting to scare her off immediately, Ash waited till she'd been in there for about fifteen minutes- then followed. And the damn orderlies couldn't do a thing about it, which made him smirk to himself. What he didn't expect to find, though, when he went in, was the girl hunched over in front of a computer, her shoulders shaking silently and her face buried in her hands. He froze in the doorway and stared for a second- she was crying. And as much as it made him want to turn 'n run, cause dealing with crying chicks wasn't something he knew how to do, he couldn't. Because when she heard the door open, she turned and looked up with bloodshot eyes, lookin' for all the world like she'd just been broken inside. Crap.
"H- hey, you alright?"
"Yes," she answered quickly, spinning her chair away and swipin' at her eyes with one arm. Then, she didn't move, leaving her back to him, and he almost didn't hear the tiny little, "no," that followed, and hell, she even sounded broken. Slowly, Ash let the door shut behind him, making her turn around to look at him again, and he could see her tryin' to rebuild herself. "What do you want?"
Ash raised his hands up in the air like he was surrendering or something, and shrugged as he took another step forward into the room. "I'm just here to use the computer, doll. Don't want nothin'."
"I'm 'crazy,'" she answered, her voice loaded with sarcasm as she made little air quotes at the word 'crazy,' "not stupid." And with every word, she was buildin' up that wall around herself, less and less of that heartbroken girl he'd seen when he first came in showin'.
"I'm just tellin' the truth. Old Ash's been a good boy, so I get to try out these fancy pants computers of theirs." The girl snorted. Ash shrugged and, when she didn't make any move to run, made his way over to a computer two machines down from hers.
"'Fancy pants?' You're kidding, right? These things are so old they make the computers on the Flintstones look new." And then all traces were gone, and he was lookin' at the same girl who'd been dodging him since the first day he started trying to get her attention. Which was a relief, cause he didn't know what he woulda done if she'd kept crying.
"Yeah, and? I've kinda been out of touch for awhile." He grimaced as he said it, because it sounded like he'd been stuck in here for way too long, but it was true. For as long as he'd been stuck in this place, he'd been in medieval times before that, and over fifteen years in the past from today before that. The girl gave him a sharp look, watching him closely with those still bloodshot eyes of hers, like she was tryin' to figure him out. Ash ignored her for a moment, sitting down and poking at the computer in front of him with his hand. Let her stew, he figured, cause there was some question waitin' to be asked in those eyes. She'd pop eventually.
"Wanna tell me why you've been watching me?" Sooner, rather than later apparently. "If the Council sent you, you can forget it. I'm done." There was a harsh edge to her voice, and frankly, with the look he'd seen in her eyes sometimes, it didn't surprise him.
"I don't know nothing about a council, sister." Ash paused, looking away from the computer and straight at her. It was just a reason to get close to her anyway. "What I do know is that you're not like the rest of these crazies in here. Whatever it is they put you in here for, you're like me. It's real, and you know what's out there."
"I'm not like you," the girl retorted quickly, suspicion flashing through her eyes. "I burned down a gym- you killed people. There's a difference."
"That what the orderlies told ya?"
"They told me you killed seven people, including your sister and your girlfriend."
"Yeah, well, guess what. Did they also tell ya that it wasn't me, it was a buncha Kandarian demons?" The words seemed to give her pause, her gaze sharpening.
"Demons?" The girl hesitated, as if considering her next words. When she finally spoke again, her voice was bitter. "There's no such thing as demons."
"Sure, that's what the docs're spoon feedin' ya, but I've seen the way you look at night. You've seen 'em before, haven't ya? Fought 'em? Lost someone to 'em?" And the moment he said it, he could see her flinch, a pain in her eyes that she hid almost as soon as it appeared. He hadn't been wrong- not that he ever was. She was like him. "You know and I know that they're real, even if the rest'a the world thinks we're crazy."
"And?" There was a hint of that brokenness from earlier in her face. "Who cares if they're real? If going along with the rest of the world means I can get out of here, that my family won't fall apart, then fine. I'll do it- gladly."
Oh. That was what she'd been cryin' about, something going on at home- cause she was here? Ash winced, because he knew how much that could hurt. He remembered holdin' Linda back when they first started dating, cause her parents were getting a divorce; she'd cried in his arms, and she'd been older than this kid, an adult when it happened, and hadn't blamed herself like this girl was. "Look, kid, I-"
"Don't." The girl's voice stopped him cold, her eyes dark with emotion she was just barely keeping off her face, out of her voice, if her trembling hands were any indication. "The only way out of this place is to lie. You want out, you'll do the same thing."
"Out to where, huh? They think I killed seven people, remember? I suddenly start lyin' about the demons, all they're gonna do is lock me up in a real prison."
"I'm sorry, I can't help you." Her voice was blank, her face closed off, and she pushed away and up from the computer. "I hope you figure it out."
And as she walked away and out of the computer room, Ash realized it was kinda like seeing himself. Was that how he'd looked to Sheila, the Wiseman, and everyone else back in Kandar, when he brought back the book and demanded to be sent home? His lips pressed together in a hard line. She was hurtin', and he knew what that was like. He'd been hurting too, back in Kandar. And he realized, with a jolt, that he didn't like seeing the kid hurt, even though he barely even knew her name. Maybe, if he stuck to it and kept buggin' her, he could pull her outta that funk, and they could both get outta this place. Maybe…

Click here to see how Maine candidates responded to the SheDecides questionnaire.
Women are a powerful force in the electorate. Women were 53% of voters in the last presidential election and 56% of them voted for our current president. Unmarried women accounted for nearly half of the increase in votes cast between 2004 and 2008. Why did the "women's vote" win the last election? Because campaign messages and priorities spoke directly to the economic realities of women's lives.
When you work hard in Maine, you should be able to care for yourself and your family. Workers in Maine are struggling with lost jobs, cuts in hours, and drops in overtime. A record 58,000 Maine people remain unemployed. We all agree that job security is critical for a family's well-being—and for Maine's economic recovery.
That's why, now more than ever, we need policies to support access to good jobs with benefits and to help workers hold onto those jobs—and income when faced with inevitable illness or family needs.
She Decides is our pocketbook agenda and it's your road map for candidates who want to speak to this powerful constituency.

Click any word in a definition or example to find the entry for that word
the period of a person's life during which they are generally healthy and free from serious or chronic illness
'The National Service Framework for Older People is already engaged on a 10-year plan to end ageism, improve health and social care, and encourage us to modify our lifestyle now to make living longer a pleasurable experience. The lag between healthspan and lifespan is serious. None of us look forward to chronic illness.'The Guardian 13th May 2002
'Jackson replied that "lifespans" were the demographic definition, but "healthspans" presented a complicating factor. A big unknown is the functionality of older citizens …''Moral Foundations, the Rule of Law, and the Challenge of Global Aging',
In May 2005, scientists in the US revealed new research claiming that they could reduce the potential for age-related illness and thereby significantly extend human healthspan, the period of life during which an individual remains essentially healthy.
new research reflects a growing trend among medical experts to distinguish between lifespan, the period between birth and death, and healthspan, the period when a person or animal is fully fit
Researchers at the University of Washington School of Medicine created genetically engineered mice that lived 20 per cent longer than normal. The specially engineered mice produced high levels of an antioxidant enzyme called catalase, which acts to control levels of hydrogen peroxide, a waste product of metabolism which can generate chemicals causing tissue damage. Mice that produced extra catalase had healthier heart muscle tissue, protecting them from the age-related heart problems observed in normal mice. Similar techniques could be developed to protect the human body from age-related conditions, not only increasing life expectancy but also prolonging the period of life during which a person remains free from serious illness: their healthspan.
This new research reflects a growing trend among medical experts to distinguish between lifespan, the period between birth and death, and healthspan, the period when a person or animal is fully fit. For humans in the West, lifespan is usually longer than healthspan. UK government figures show that between 1981 and 1987, the life expectancy of men went up from 70.9 to 74.6. The healthy life expectancy however only went up from 64.4 to 66.9. In women also, the healthy life expectancy increase lagged a year behind actual life expectancy. Amid concerns on both sides of the Atlantic about the growing aged, but not necessarily healthy, population and its consequent burden on the welfare state, research which concentrated previously on dealing with age-related illness is increasingly looking at ways to intervene in the aging process and promote an improved healthspan.
If you'd like to know more about your own healthspan, Dr Thomas Perls at the Boston Medical Center has developed the Healthspan Calculator©, an online quiz which enables you to predict your life expectancy.
The term healthspan has featured in medical research for the last five years, though is yet to be formally recorded in a published dictionary. One of the earliest uses of the term is associated with Dr. Gordon Lithgow, formerly of the University of Manchester in the UK and now associate professor at the Buck Institute for advancing age research in California.
The word healthspan is, of course, a straightforward blend of health and span. Span is used productively in compounds or as a suffix to refer to 'the amount of time or space that something covers', e.g. attention/concentration span, timespan, wingspan. It has its origins in an Old English word spann, meaning 'the distance between the tips of the thumb and little finger'.
