We share tastes in poascdts. I'm particularly into Dinner Party right now; the recent episode of all jokes had me similarly laughing out loud in public places. Oh well, at least we look like happy people (if crazy!)Beautiful tomatoes from your garden! And I am laying aside my resentment of people on the west coast who can find things like fresh chickpeas at their farmer's markets :)

I had IPL done four days ago and I had three days of severe swelling and now marks on my face that look like wide cuts. They have not "hardened" or scabbed.
My concern is that I am suffering complications from the procedure. After doing research, I was under the impression that this was a very safe procedure to have done with little to no risk of a disaster happening.
Should I be concerned or give my face the full week of healing time to worry and call my doctor's office?

There's no perfect in parenting
The title of perfectionist is one Alecia Hancock wore with honour - until she realised it could be hurting her child. She looks at eight ways to change the perfectionist mindset.
In the world of business, always striving for perfection served me well. I sailed up the corporate ladder and often heard the remark, "She's far too young to have a job that responsible." When I started my own business from nothing, my perfectionism saw me build a loyal customer base from the very first week.
While somewhere deep inside I realise perfection isn't always realistic, I've never really accepted anything less from myself. That was until a few weeks ago, when someone gently asked me what the high standards I hold for my own achievements might be teaching my two year old. Those simple words stunned me into silence. Did I really want him to grow up thinking that simply trying his best wasn't good enough? Hell no.
So I reached out to the experts to find simple ways to change my corporate "perfection" mindset into one that is healthier for both my son and me.
8 ways to parent with less perfectionism (and why it's really good to do so)
1. Fast forward ten years
Edith Cowan University psychology lecturer, families expert and mother of three Dr Bronwyn Harman completed her thesis on the topic of perfectionist parenting, and she says we shouldn't sweat the small stuff.
"Ask yourself, does it really matter if the floor is washed this morning? Will the house be condemned? Does it matter that you haven't done the washing today if you can do it tomorrow? Does your child have to wear matching clothes all the time?"
Dr Harman says asking yourself whether this problem will matter for your child in 10 years time is the perfect test.
"If the answer is no, let it go."
2. Find a friend with three or more kids
Dr Harman says she remembers taking her third child to a health nurse appointment when he had just begun walking. Her son climbed up on a chair and fell off, much to the horror of the other mothers in the centre. "I told them not to worry, he is a third child," she says.
"I am generalising, but people with three or more children are generally more relaxed about parenting. Since as parents we often model our behaviour off other parents, whether we realise it or not, find parents that set you a good example."
3. Let kids make mistakes
Dr Harman says when her children were in playgroup they had a weekly scrapbooking activity. She says week after week she watched one mother step in and do the activity for her child.
"We eventually got her a scrapbook of her own," she says. "She was so concerned about her daughter getting things right, she was putting that expectation on her daughter without even realising it."
4. Give your child space
You don't need to know everything your child does, according to parenting educator and director of parentingideasclub.com.au, Michael Grose.
"In large families in times gone by, people intuitively understood that kids are just trying, but sometimes today we get a bit over-obsessive and make a big deal every time a child sneezes," he explains. "If you had six kids you suddenly give them the space to work things out for themselves."
If your child is struggling to do something, give them time to figure it out on their own. If you always solve their problems, you may be teaching them that they can't do it themselves.
"We're building a society of low risk takers," Mr Grose explains. "Perfectionist parents sometimes forget that kids have L plates and need to do things at their own time and in their own way."
5. Realise parenting is not a race
Mr Grose says there is a lot of pressure on parents to tick off all the boxes on their child's developmental map. "It's a competitive world out there in parent land," he says.
Mr Grose says parents should instead let the child take the lead on when they're ready to take the next step.
"Parents of young children need to know that research shows an early start isn't necessarily a good start," he says.
If all the mums around you are toilet training, don't let it pressure you. One child may be ready to take this step, while others are perfectly happy in nappies.
6. Embrace mess
Kids are messy and parents need to get on board. "If you come from that corporate mindset, it's not pleasant as it's all about neatness, tidiness and control," Mr Grose says. "Parenting is not about neatness and control. Having kids is about chaos."
7. Teach without criticism
Mr Grose says any child between the age of three and 15 could make a bed, but they are going to do it at their different developmental levels.
"A perfectionist parent might then come along and fix up what the child has done, or be critical," he says. "The child starts to think that if you can't accept the way they do things, they simply won't do it next time."
Show your child how something is done, but resist the urge to correct their mistakes. Instead, make a big fuss of how well they tried.
8. Have the courage to be imperfect
Mr Grose says smart parents encourage imperfection, not perfection. "Don't worry too much if they make mistakes, particularly if they are developmental," he says.
Instead focus on encouraging children to give things their best shot.

The Federal Reserve's 'breathtaking' $7.7 trillion bank bailout
WTF is going on in this country? That's half of our GDP.
To put that in context if divided amongst the US population each and everyone one of us would have gotten just about 25,000 each. Where the heck did that money go?
End the FED (Fuking Everyone Daily)
Can't do much about it. It'll just blow over like the rest of the scandles. Some people got rich as hell off it though, congrats to those slimeballs.
I think it should be made clear that the Federal Reserve is NOT federal and it has NO reserves.
It is owned by its member banks, witch are all the big ones. The only connection to the federal government is that the president appoints the chairman and some of the governors.
So in truth, the article should read "Banks print 7.7 trillion dollars because they felt like it".
we're so screwed...:sad02:
Weird, it's hard to find any coverage in European news on that issue.
And people wonder why Woodrow Wilson's picture is on the $10,000 bill. He gave away their currency back in the 1910's and regretted it before he died.
The Federal Reserve Act - The day America no longer controlled their currency.
The control of interest rates and flow of currency should not be "regulated" by a private institution without governmental oversight. When dealing with compound interest rates, fractional-reserve-banking and our form of currency (fiat) we are surely slaves to international bankers that hold no concept of sovereignty.

This was given to faceless entities with no improvement in our economy and nothing to show for it. AND no penalization for those responsible for it.
How the hell did we just give away that much money without very little oversight and almost no tracking, yep that's right LITTLE OVERSIGHT AND NO TRACKING. How come no one has gone to jail how come besides minor cosmetic changes has no real measures put in place for future prevention? Why isn't this spoken about by Obama or any of the GOP nominees or congress (both ailes and both parties)? Partisanship is a joke and is used to divid us while they rob us blind. It doesn matter if you are part of the Tea party movement or the OWS movement both are aware that there are serious problems that no one is addressing. Media is a joke and are run by 7 large corporations with vested interests in keeping you unware, divided and distracted. This is robbery plain and simple.
That's not even getting into our national debt and deficit (which is another topic altogether).
I give up.

The Tennessee men's track and field team travels to Louisville, Ky., for the NCAA Mideast Regional on Friday and Saturday. Fifteen Vols have qualified in individual events and three more athletes will make the trip to run on relay units.
"The goal is for these guys to try and earn a spot in the NCAA Championships," Tennessee head coach Bill Webb said. "This is meet is as competitive if not more competitive than the conference meet, but we have a different focus. This weekend is about individual performances."
Among Tennessee's 15 individual competitors are four athletes who have qualified in multiple events. Joseph Morris will run the 100m and 200m as well as the 4x100m relay, while Nick Panezich will compete in the shot put, hammer throw and discus. Kyle Stevenson will run the 100m and compete on the 4x100m and 4x400m relays. Evander Wells will compete in both sprint races and on the 4x100m relay.
The Vols will also enter four pole vault specialists into competition including three-time SEC champion and defending Mideast Region champion Joseph Berry along with a pair of SEC scorers in Michael Ayers and Brad Holtz. Michael Seaman rounds out the group competing in his first regional competition.
Tennessee also enters two of the top 800m runners in the region in Joseph Franklin and Emerson Peacock. Franklin was the runner-up at the SEC Championships at 1:48.39, yet Peacock has the faster qualifying time at 1:48.34.
Other individuals who earned a regional berth this season include Akeem Hardnett in the triple jump, John Hewitt in the 400m hurdles, Charlton Rolle in the 110m hurdles, Brenard Wilson in the high jump and Richard Wooten in the hammer throw.
Alan Bachman, Samdi Fraser and Nathan Grace will be utilized on the 4x100m and 4x400m relays.
The top five finishers in individual events and the top three finishers in each relay will earn automatic spots at the NCAA Championships on June 10-13. Any athlete finishing in the top 12 in an event will be included in a national selection pool with the chance to earn an at-large berth.
Action for the Vols begins at 1 p.m. ET on Friday with the high jump. Live results will be available on UTsports.com throughout the meet.

5/3rd RBR Organizers: Elite Field Strong for 25K, Security Features Remain
Fifth Third River Bank Run organizers updated the media today about the event coming May 10th.
Elite Athlete Recruiter Greg Meyer's had a busy week, returning from Boston's Marathon. He'd been the long standing "last American champion" of that race until Meb Keflezighi crossed the finish line first on Patriot's Day. "With Meb winning, that sends a message to the other Americans that 'you can compete with these guys.'" Meyer told WOOD Radio they're looking forward to two time champ Fernando Cabada and 2013 USA National Championship winner Mohamed Trafeh along with international elite runners. Close to race day, the cold call from an elite runner may be hard to support. "Unless it's a rare person, once that limit is hit, they're on their own to get here and get their own hotel room." Meyer has a recruitment budget for developing talent in the 25K race.
Race Director Kristen Aidif told WOOD Radio the registration is running ahead of normal for the 25K and 10K runners, signups from 5K run and walk participants are slightly down. "We've finally got some spring weather and we're going to see those numbers go up. If we get good weather on event weekend, we'll see them go up even more on late registration."
Aidif said they're glad the Boston Marathon was without incident this year, they will continue with added security measures for their event. "If you're planning to participate in any of the events and you've got extra belongings with you, please use the 5/3rd RBR Gear Check in DeVos Place, it opens up at 6 a.m."

I'm a very shy kitty anyway, but yesterday I was soooo scared.
These two men came to our house. I've seen them before but I know that every time they come it's trouble. They like to pull out hammers and saws and a loud radio and make all kinds of noise stomping around. Well, as soon as I heard them at the door, I ran to my favorite hidey space under the basement stairs.
Well, wouldn't you know, they were making all their hammering and sawing and other loud noises right in the basement! No escape! I was trapped under those cold, dark stairs all day.
I only came out after they were gone for about an hour. I looked for my mommy who reassured me that they were all gone.
Sheesh! Can't a gal get any beauty rest around here?
Purring atcha,
Lounging on the top tier of our blue cat tree like I do efurry morning, not a care in the world. Next thing I know... POUNCE! That bratty Perla popped up into the next tier down. Well, I tell, you, I got so scared, I jumped straight down to the floor from my perch with a loud THUMP! My goodness, that Perla is the queen of ambush and surprise.
OK, I'm done shaking now. I have to groom my pretty, soft fur and get back to being the princess that I am.
Pssstt... Don't tell anyone. It might ruin my image.
Sweet, sweet Dexter has been pmailing me and sending me flowers and other pressies. He likes me! He really, really likes me! And now he has been named Detective of the Month at Samoa's Detective Agency! I'm so proud of him! Here's his interview:

The Seattle Mariners are a franchise that has had a number of star players come through over the years. All-Star infielders, Hall of Fame outfielders, Cy Young Award winning starting pitchers. But left field has more or less been a disappointment. Outside of a few Raul Ibanez seasons and maybe a Phil Bradley campaign or two, left field has been a position of continual under performance by nearly everyone Seattle has run out there for 37 years.
Dustin Ackley's college career was primarily spent at first base, the result of a ligament tear which led to Tommy John surgery early in his career, likely the result of pitching too much in high school. He played 125 of his first 141 games at first base for the Tar Heels as a freshman and sophomore before being transitioned to second base upon signing with the M's. That position change went away last year when Nick Franklin came up to replace Ackley, who was going on nearly two years of struggles after a hot start to his big league career, and now with Robinson Cano in town for the next 10 years it is safe to say that second base in Seattle isn't happening again for Ackley, or anyone else for that matter. But although that arm injury was long ago, the questions about his correct position, his arm strength and his ceiling because of that have never truly gone away.
The usual take on Ackley as a left fielder? He won't hit enough to warrant being played at the position. And he doesn't have the arm and doesn't have the range to offset the offensive deficiency that you'll be accepting by putting him out there. The funny thing is, though, if you look at the numbers that left field has typically produced, it starts to look like the exact position you'd pencil Ackley in to play.
Over 20,000 plate appearances went to big league left fielders in 2013 and they combined to hit .259/.323/.412 as a group. 30 players in MLB qualified as left fielders and got at least 400 plate appearances in 2013. Their average output? .262/.332/.427, 16 home runs, 12 stolen bases, 2.3 fWAR is what FanGraphs tells us. And if we eliminate the extreme outliers by removing Mike Trout (10.4 fWAR) and Vernon Wells (-0.8 fWAR), the average is 2.1 fWAR. Who doesn't think that Dustin Ackley can reach those figures for Seattle?
Ackley hit .253/.319/.341 on the year for Seattle in 2013 and owns a career mark of .245/.315/.354 in his 356 big league games. Not exactly standing out against those stats above, but the former No. 2 overall pick hit .304/.374/.435 in 53 games in the season's second half last year and has come into spring training this year seemingly still riding that hot streak. Only two qualified left fielders -- Trout and Boston's Daniel Nava -- bested all three of those slash marks over a full season last year. And eight games into his Cactus League season here in 2014 Dustin is hitting .478/.500/.870 (11-23), collecting six extra base hits and consistently driving the ball into the outfield.
Ackley played mainly center field last year after his position switch but was told by manager Lloyd McClendon that he'd be seeing time solely in left field this year. Why? "Because that's where I want him," the M's new skipper says, matter-of-fact-ly. Adding, "I think our challenge is to get him in one place and leave him there and let him flourish." To that end, Dustin was noticeably tentative on his routes at times in the outfield last year, but outfield coach and former Gold Glover and All-Star Andy Van Slyke has done a lot of work with Ackley and the reports out of spring so far indicate that he is looking more comfortable as an outfielder.
Getting Ackley comfortable has been a process over his time in the organization as he has undergone position switches and swing changes along with a roller coaster in terms of confidence. Before he was sent down to Tacoma to work on finding himself at the plate and becoming an outfielder, Ackley was making a lot of soft outs, often rolling over on hittable pitches and pulling easy ground balls to the second baseman. When he returned to the big leagues he was covering the outer half better and finding many more hits to left field as a result. To end the year he was driving the ball with authority more, finding the gaps and clearing the fence to his pull side with much more regularity. The numbers show that Ackley had a 4.6% XBH rate in the first half, 7.7% in the second half, including connecting for three of his four home runs on the year over his final 26 starts. And that trend has continued in spring, as mentioned above and pictured below, as Dustin continues to hit the ball with authority.

There were definitely hard times and frustrations -- for the player, for the fans and certainly for the organization. Can he end the streak of frustration, not just for himself but for a franchise light on left fielders throughout their history? That may still be too soon to answer definitively, but the player that Dustin Ackley has evolved into over the last nine months appears to be the exact type of player that the Mariners need; an athletic, good hitter that plays in the outfield and can run. And he is hitting enough to be their left fielder.

The Tennessee Register, the newspaper of the Diocese of Nashville, recently profiled the new Aquinas College Center for the Study of Human Dignity and Ethics in Health Care. Center Advisory Council member Dr. Marie Hilliard, director of bioethics and public policy for the National Catholic Bioethics Center, and Brother Ignatius Perkins, O.P., Ph.D., R.N., F.A.A.N., A.N.E.F., the center's founder and Dean of the School of Nursing, were both interviewed for the story. Dr. Hilliard's work with Aquinas was highlighted in the
From the Tennessee Register:
New Aquinas center seeks to be a 'moral force' guiding health care ethics
by Theresa Laurence, Tennessee Register
April 26, 2013
The School of Nursing at Aquinas College has founded the Center for the Study of Human Dignity and Ethics in Health Care to affirm, protect and defend the dignity of the human person through education, consultation, research and service.
"While the need for this center is decades old," said the School of Nursing's Dean, Brother Ignatius Perkins, O.P., "the timing of its launch, in relation to the continued draconian changes in health care today and in the future, is providential."
During this era of fast paced change in health care technology and law, "we don't want to be passive participants and reactors," said Brother Ignatius. Instead, he wants Aquinas to be out front, guiding the conversation about health care ethics.
Brother Ignatius sees the center as "an enormous opportunity for evangelization," a chance to "start conversations to help people resolve the health care challenges they are facing." To do that, the Center, under the guidance of a 17 member advisory council, will:
• Provide community-wide educational opportunities for health care professionals, civic leaders, legislators and citizens of the community (including seminars, multi disciplinary forums, parish presentations and more) that addresses current issues in health care, education, administration and scholarship.
• Provide consultation, conduct research and disseminate findings.
• Build collaborative partnerships with the health care community locally, nationally and internationally.
• Provide forums for presentations by visiting scholars.
• Develop model learning outcomes for health professions' students that embrace the purpose and core values of the Center.
• Honor members of the health professions and the community who have distinguished achievements in defending and protecting the dignity and flourishing of the human person.
Marie Hilliard, director of bioethics and public policy for the Philadelphia-based National Catholic Bioethics Center, is a member of the Aquinas Center's advisory council, and has extensive experience guiding individuals and clinicians through health care quandaries at critical moments.
The National Catholic Bioethics Center maintains a 24/7 hotline where anyone can reach an ethicist for consultation. People call with questions about everything from fertility treatments to writing advance medical directives for end of life care.
"There are a lot of misunderstandings of dilemmas that families are facing," especially at the end of life, said Hilliard, a former Army nurse who holds a canon law degree. "It's not true that as Catholics we want end of life care to go on forever," she said. When treatment becomes "a disproportionate burden to the patient, then it's time that we say, let nature take its course," she said.
For example, a person may judge in good conscience that the pain and difficulty of an aggressive treatment for terminal cancer is too much to bear, and thus decide to forgo that treatment. They should not, however, forgo normal hydration and nutrition to accelerate the natural process of death. The guiding principle of the National Catholic Bioethics Center is "natural, moral law," Hilliard said.
Like the NCBC, the Aquinas Center is rooted in natural, moral law, and Brother Ignatius hopes it will assist both patients and clinicians alike. He has particular concern about how each group will be affected by some stipulations of the Affordable Care Act. Will physicians be able to refuse to write prescriptions for birth control if they are morally opposed to it? Will the poorest and most vulnerable have access to health care if a new form of government rationing is instituted?
"Who determines who is worthy of care?" Brother Ignatius said. "I'm concerned that those with the least resources will be left out in the cold."
Right now, "we tend to worship at the altar of technology, and we're driven by an economic engine, not a moral engine," Brother Ignatius said. What is needed in today's health care climate is more personal interaction between doctor, nurse and patient, quality primary care, preventive and follow up services. The Center is an opportunity for Aquinas to be "a moral force in re-shaping the world of health care by supporting all those seeking to be healed as well as members of the health professions," he said.
The Center will begin hosting semi-annual programs that are open to the public beginning in the fall. Brother Ignatius is also available to speak at parish events and for private health care ethics consultation, and can be reached at (615) 297-7545, ext. 607.
More information about the Center, including a complete list of advisory council members, is available by clicking on the appropriate links at the Center's webpage.
There are other centers similar to Aquinas' Center for the Study of Human Dignity and Ethics in Health Care, but they are often affiliated with nationally known Catholic colleges like Georgetown and St. Louis University. "For a smaller college to embrace a program of this caliber is impressive," Hilliard said. "I'm proud to be associated with it and I think it will have a great impact."

Elliot Scott is a walking contradiction. He is a slim, friendly guy, yet also a kickboxing champion. He is laid back, but works as an independent filmmaker. He dreams of being Canada's Chuck Norris and the star of a blockbuster action film. Hard at work on his third film, Blood Fight, Scott's lavish dreams are out of touch with reality. He strains to make a career as a filmmaker work in a tough economy, which interferes with his relationship with directing partner and girlfriend Linda Lum. The deeper in debt our wannabe action hero becomes, the more secrets about his true alter ego appear.
Like a Maritime-set American Movie, Kung Fu Elliot is an underdog story about a minor filmmaker that becomes a fascinating character study. Matthew Bauckman and Jaret Belliveau's doc turns bizarre as we learn more about the film's subject. Slowly, their doc turns into an exploration of the price of fame and what dreams are really made of. The directors even manage to pull off a twist ending – not an easy feat for a non-fiction film.
Some of the behind-the-scenes stories with the eccentric cast and crew are both funny and tender, although the film sags when it strays from Scott and Lum. However, the couple's off-kilter relationship is riveting and sometimes painful to watch, which overcomes some of the pacing problems. The arrogant and idealistic Scott is one of the most unforgettable documentary subjects in years. His journey to be Canada's action hero takes the viewer to some dark places – and to spill any secrets would be criminal.
Is Kung Fu Elliot essential festival viewing?
Yes. Kung Fu Elliot is one of the strangest and most bewildering Canadian docs in ages. It is bound to both amuse and arrest audiences who like to go behind-the-scenes, as we meet one of the country's most compelling creative types.

Q&A: Turning 60, Billy Joel is "happy and contented"
By Ray Waddell
NASHVILLE (Billboard) - It's April in Manhattan but winter is lingering, a fact Billy Joel notices as he looks out the window of his West Village townhouse.
Joel is mildly surprised. "Oh, my God, it's snowing, look at this."
Yet not much surprises Joel as he approaches his 60th birthday, taking a break from the massively successful Face 2 Face tour with Elton John.
He has sold millions of records, has set multiple box-office records on tour, has endured personal and professional highs and lows, and has secured his place in rock 'n' roll history. Those who know him best say Joel's in a good place now, although that may not always have been the case.
"It's a different Billy I'm seeing on this tour, a very happy and contented one," John says. "He's always been funny, always been razor-sharp, but this is a very happy and contented Billy, and I'm very happy that he's found that space to be in."
Joel turns 60 on Saturday (May 9), a milestone he plans to mark not with a "wing-ding masquerade ball, no over-the-top rock 'n' roll affair, just a big family dinner." Joel seems, in a word, comfortable. He's generous with his time, warm and witty in his recollections and seemingly at peace.
Billboard: Do you do any kind of assessment at this point of your life and career?
Billy Joel: I'm not a looking-back kind of person. What I've realized about turning 60 is I'm not just one age, I'm every age I've ever been. Sometimes I'm 11, sometimes 16, sometimes I'm 25, sometimes I'm 38, sometimes I'm 42, sometimes I'm in my 50s. I'm all over the place. And it comes in handy, especially in this line of work.

It is the year, 1962 and President Kennedy has brought together leaders of the civil rights movement that seeks to end prejudice against Negroes.
"Gentlemen, I appreciate your willingness to come to this meeting. As you all are well aware this country is confronting serious foreign policy issues as the Soviet Union constructs a wall to separate east Germany from the West, Communist China is in turmoil, and the Middle East is in conflict with no hope of ending the Israel-Arab dispute. New reports from Vietnam indicate problems in that region are escalating and this nation will have to decide how to handle growing violence. I know all in this room realize the threat of nuclear war exists in the Cuba issue.
Here at home, as you all know, we are dealing with a recession that requires greater government into the economy. I hope you all understand this administration is committed to the goal of equal rights for Negroes. We will not waver from that goal. But, we must be realistic. This administration can not deal with world conflicts and serious economic stress if we shift the focus to deal with Negro rights. The world could well be on the verge of a serious atomic bomb conflict in Cuba. I must focus attention and resources on those issues. I need the support of Republicans as well as conservative Democrats in order to confront these world issues, and if I allow this administration to get side-tracked with concern over Negro rights, we may well witness the loss of our entire society.
I am asking everyone in this room to set aside for the moment your concerns about civil rights and focus on the major issues facing American society. I realize this will not please anyone in this room, but I must address issues that threaten the very existence of this society."
I guess President Barack Obama would have given this speech since he does not believe the rights of gays and lesbians can be addressed along with other issues. Somehow, I think if Obama was in that room fifty years ago, he would be arguing that both rights of Negroes and foreign policy could be simultaneously addressed. Thank God, John Kennedy was no Barack Obama!

Easy Bounce Pop-up Flash Diffuser for Nikon
Though the DSLR camera's built-in flash may save us for a while when taking pictures under insufficient light, the results are sometimes out of expectation; it may produce too much reflection or imbalanced artificial contrast.
Such problem can now be handled with the Easy Bounce Pop-up flash diffuser—addressed for use on Nikon DSLR cameras. You just have to slide the installation adapter into the camera's hotshoe. When the reflective plate is separated from the body, you can even use the diffuser as an omnibounce-type diffuser.
With an easy installation, the pop-up flash diffuser works quite as good as an external flash does. It turns your built-in flash into a softer, more natural light source. The pop-up flash diffuser is available for purchase on eBay for US$29.95 (about Rp 270,000). You can study the details of installation here. nikonrumors.com

Wednesday's email brought this announcement of applications from LinkedIn:
Today we're announcing many more ways to interact with your network on LinkedIn. Whether it's a new way to create projects and collaborate, share information, customize your profile, or gain key insights, the new LinkedIn Applications deliver.
You may have had the same thought I did.
So what?
I've been a member of LinkedIn since the service started. And the fact is, I don't really interact with my network on LinkedIn. I can count on one hand the number of times I've contacted someone using the service. Other tools such as email, blogs, Facebook, and Twitter have largely supplanted it for me.
With about 30 million members and projected revenue of US$100 million in 2008 from the subscription services they offer, LinkedIn is profitable. But it has nowhere near the buzz of newer startups like Facebook, with over 60 million members and revenue of up to $350 million. It may be an excellent place to connect with people, find a job, or recruit employees, but I don't believe that introducing a few applications -- all of which are available already elsewhere -- is going to drastically change that situation.
LinkedIn is arriving very late to the social applications party. Comparing your Amazon reading list with those of your network, sharing your blog posts and travel plans with your network, or using online workspaces -- these things are not novel, and you are probably already doing the same thing elsewhere. Are you going to limit yourself to the LinkedIn world to do them? Perhaps LinkedIn would be better off providing an API into their network or networks for use by external application developers?
Furthermore, though LinkedIn claims that applications are developed using the OpenSocial API, the platform is not publically available. The company makes this statement:
The LinkedIn application platform is not publicly available for all developers. We evaluate requests to develop for the LinkedIn platform from partners who have clearly compelling value to our users and who can rigorously follow our privacy policies. We are looking for applications that provide clear business utility to LinkedIn users. LinkedIn is not a place for sheep throwing.
If I have an application with a clearly compelling value I don't need the approval of LinkedIn; I can just build the application either by myself or for a different platform. This is not the way to attract developers. And developers are needed to create the applications that will attract people to LinkedIn. Not rehashes of existing products.
After all, as my recent experience with the iPhone app store shows, it appears that there are many excellent productivity tools that don't involve sheep throwing at all.
This story, "LinkedIn applications: Too little, too late" was originally published by The Industry Standard.

The surgeons listed above are members of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, licensed by the state of California and certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS).
Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
Remember, any licensed physician is legally allowed to advertise as a "cosmetic" surgeon, even if he or she has no formal surgical training. Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery. Following medical school, ABPS-certified plastic surgeons must have completed a minimum of 5 years of surgical training, including an accredited plastic surgery residency program. Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Ultimately people who self-injure can learn to use new and healthier coping mechanisms to deal with some traumatic event in their lives...and though this process may take sometime to develop. It's also important to get help from a therapist/counsellor who specializes in self-injury. He or she can help you figure out what lies behind the urge to cut or injure yourself.(For here lays the answer).
These new coping mechanisms may include many activities and expression instead of hurting yourself ( those you are already mastering are very good, please keep them up).
A process that involves self-expression is often helpful...prayer is also a wonderful form of meditation and peace for your soul. Whatever works as an alternative method of coping with your feelings of anxiety or stress or "numbness" is often a good start toward recovery.

Gary Corbett, president of the union that represents some 23,000 Canadian federal scientists, is available for interviews
Ottawa, February 17, 2012 - The union that represents 23,000 Canadian federal scientists and researchers provides, through a webcast, open access to a unique panel session featuring scientists and journalists entitled "Unmuzzling Government Scientists". The panel is part of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) 5-day annual conference in Vancouver. The AAAS is the world's largest science society.
"We believe that muzzling scientists who work for the public good threatens the safety of all Canadians, undermines our democracy and our country's ability to meet its full potential," says Gary Corbett, President of the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada.
In an opinion piece (http://www.ipolitics.ca/2012/02/15/gary-corbett-scientific-home-truths/) published earlier this week, Corbett also calls attention to cuts to government science as well as the danger posed by the current government's disdain for evidence-based decision-making.
Corbett adds, "Government scientists are between a rock and a hard place - their ability to do their jobs and protect Canadians is compromised by disappearing resources, a lack of support from their employer and their inability to communicate. Our union does not need government approval to speak up for public science and for the Canadians whose safety depends on it. "
"Unmuzzling Government Scientists: How to Re-open the Discourse" is a panel organized by the Canadian Science Writers' Association (CSWA) and the Association des Communicateurs Scientifiques du Québec (ACS), featuring Francesca Grifo of the Union of Concerned Scientists, Andrew Weaver of the University of Victoria, and Postmedia News journalist Margaret Munro.

Best Of :: People & Places
There are fighters. And there are head busters. Count Luis "Baboon" Palomino in the latter category. As a member of Team MMA Masters, out of Overtown, the Peruvian mixed martial artist puts on a gritty performance every time he steps into the octagon. The five-foot-six, 150-pound fighter relies on his quick athleticism and awesome punching power. If he catches his opponents with one of his left or right hooks, it's over. Since going pro in 2006, Palomino has amassed a 12-6 record, with seven knockouts. As a teenager, he grew up between Miami Beach and South Dade during an era when teen gangs wrecked havoc across the county. Palomino didn't affiliate himself with any colors, but he still had to use his fists to defend himself from bangers in his neighborhood. "It wasn't easy," he recalls, "especially when you don't have 10, 20 guys backing you up." And in the world of MMA, a little showmanship is necessary, which Palomino doesn't shy from. Witness all the trash-talking he and his last opponent, Jorge Masvidal, engaged in. The two fought to a split decision at this past February's G-Force Fights-Bad Blood 3 at the American Airlines Arena. G-Force owner and former Miami Heat player Glen Rice praised Palomino. "Palomino stepped up and got his respect," Rice said. "His performance was a tribute to his hard work." MMA Masters coach Cesar Carneiro promises Palomino will one day be a world champion. "No one is going to stop him."
What you need is a weekend away. But alas, Miamians, you're already living in the very place most Floridians vacation. So where to go? If you answered the Keys, go ahead and line up in bumper-to-bumper traffic on the Seven Mile Bridge. (Besides, it's the same pastel motels, just more coconuts.) Instead, steer the car north like you're heading for Disney, but bypass all the mouse-touting exits and that spooky biblical theme park called the Holy Land Experience. Deep in the Ocala National Forest is Wekiwa Springs State Park, where you can spend the weekend camping in a backcountry Florida Shangri-la. Here's the scene: Moss-draped oaks canopy the park's springs, and pristine blue water nestles in natural rock that, thanks to the Floridan Aquifer, is always a cool 72 degrees. As for lodging, choose one of the campsites in the inner circle for the best shade, and kayak the Wekiwa Lagoon for some guaranteed gator watching. Camping costs $24 a night, or for primitive camping, $5 a person. Otherwise, park admission is $6 per car. For noncampers, the park is open 8 a.m. to sunset.
Most TV news talking heads, even the dudes, look and act like failed beauty queens trying to make a second career for themselves. But WSVN's Belkys Nerey bucks that trend. The 42-year-old Emmy winner is a solid, straight-up anchorwoman — telegenic but still intelligent. Born in Havana, Nerey spent her childhood in Long Island before tripping down I-95 to South Florida. Once here, she studied radio and television at Miami Dade College and Florida International University, got her start in cable news, and earned a spot in the Magic City's media parade as cohost of local gossip institution Deco Drive. Today, Nerey is cruising through the post-Deco phase of her career, holding down WSVN's nightly newscasts alongside Craig Stevens. And whether it's a celebrity sex scandal or a political con job, she always delivers the day's stories with appropriate seriousness. Case in point: Unlike some of the lesser faces populating the public airwaves, Nerey never falls prey to that annoying TV anchor tic of flashing a vacant smile after reporting Miami's latest murder.
Without warning, a woman brandishes two bushels of tree limbs and proceeds to beat our friend Lourdes from toes to shoulders. Between sweeps of the soggy branches, the woman dumps bucket after bucket of cold water on our friend. No, she's not swabbing the deck of a fishing boat. She's helping Lourdes relax with platza, one of the traditional spa treatments available at the Russian and Turkish Baths on Miami Beach. The baths attract Miami's ultimate relaxation-seekers, those who are willing to abandon modesty, vanity, and sometimes plain old comfort if it gets them closer to bliss. Women and men in barely-there bathing suits, heads wrapped in towel turbans, endure the volcanic heat of the schvitz as if sweating were a way to absolve past sins. A skeletal older man stands under a heavy waterfall that pounds on his bony shoulders. He raises his head, eyes closed, waiting to be beamed up to the mother ship. Make your way through the rest of the grotto-like rooms and hear the cries of those jumping into the icy polar tank; catch glimpses of red flesh, pores screaming from the extreme heat, and shield your eyes from the meaty woman having the mud hosed off. What are you looking at, you perv? Pass the wet branches and wait your turn. A day pass costs $30, and the baths are open from noon until midnight.
Michael Putney doesn't tweet. He doesn't pop up when we search his name on Facebook. And as far as we can tell, he doesn't blog. No, sir, Michael Putney is decidedly old school, and in this Internet age, we couldn't appreciate him more. While most TV reporters seem to come and go, Putney has been covering local government and politics in South Florida for nearly 30 years. Add to his incisive reporting a hosting gig on This Week in South Florida, one of the few must-watch local programs, and his occasional columns in the Miami Herald (which often upstage the newspaper's regular gaggle of columnists). There are few voices on local airwaves we trust as much as Putney and who report on politics with such authority.
Miami is a town where clubs spit out adjectives like exclusive, VIP, and upscale like an overchewed piece of Juicy Fruit. But WALL Lounge is actually one of the few places that can blow hard without bursting its own bubble. Jessica Alba, Gabrielle Union, the All American Rejects, Erykah Badu, Swizz Beatz, Jamie Foxx, Jason Binn, and Selita Ebanks are just a few of the celebrities who have walked through WALL's infamous doors. Other guest sightings have been rumored, but unless the press snaps a picture, they're almost impossible to confirm. In fact, it's nearly impossible to get a photo of the place, period. WALL's success lies in its size; it is so boutique it does not merit a VIP section — the lounge itself is the VIP. So if you're lucky enough to get in, keep the video phone ready — you might catch a TMZ-worthy moment.

Does Anyone Believe New York Post's "Exclusive" About A Union Plowing Slowdown?
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
It's been a week since Rupert Murdoch's New York Post splashed its "exclusive" about how "selfish" union members of New York City's Dept. of Sanitation purposefully didn't clear local streets in the wake of the recent blizzard in an effort to embarrass the city's (formerly Republican) mayor, Michael Bloomberg. Why? Because he cut the department's resources.
The Post's "exclusive" was built around anonymous sources. The key sources were a handful of nameless union workers who supposedly spilled the beans of the slowdown plan to a local Republican city councilman, Dan Halloran. It appeared the Post did not actually interview those sources, but rather interviewed Halloran, who relayed what the nameless sources supposedly told him. (Yes, that's the definition of flimsy sourcing.) The claims of a work slowdown were quickly met with universal denials from city and union officials. (The New York Times, reporting on the federal investigation that the Post story sparked, noted that evidence of a slowdown has been "scant.")
Bloomberg was widely criticized for the city's handling of the blizzard and the Post's "exclusive" provided an appealing scapegoat. The "exclusive" was quickly heralded by conservative partisans who embraced the story and derided greedy union members for putting New Yorkers at risk with an alleged work slowdown. (i.e. The storyline fit nicely with the right-wing blogosphere's never-ending orgy of union-bashing.)
What's telling though, is who has stepped forward to say they don't believe the Post story. First up was Mayor Bloomberg himself [emphasis added]:
"I don't think it took place," Bloomberg said of the slowdown.
And now this morning appearing on Morning Joe, Republican Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, also said he didn't believe the Post story:
If there was a slowdown, and I'm not sure there was, I would doubt it. Because I know the Sanitation Department. That just doesn't sound right to me, that there was some deliberate slowdown.
If the Post can't get the current or former mayor on board with its union-bashing "exclusive," I don't think there's much hope.

Dr. Douglas Maposa, a senior pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist, has joined the Medical Center faculty as an associate professor of anesthesiology, chief of pediatric anesthesiology and medical director, Batson Children's Hospital.
Maposa earned his medical degree (M.B.Ch.B.) at the University of Zimbabwe Medical School, Harare, in 1989. He completed general medicine residency training at Mpilo Central Hospital, University of Zimbabwe, from 1990-91.
He went into general practice at Tshilidzini Hospital, Northern Province, South Africa, from 1991-93. Maposa then completed his residency training in anesthesiology at the Medical University of South Africa, Garankuwa, from 1993-95 and at Johannesburg Hospital, University of Witwatersrand, South Africa, from 1995-97. He later completed advanced specialist training (fellowships) in pediatric anesthesia and pain at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in 2002 and in neuro anesthesia at the University Health Network Toronto Western Hospital, Ontario, Canada, in 2003.
Maposa practiced as a consultant and attending anesthesiologist at the Helen Joseph Memorial Hospital, University of the Witwatersrand, from 1997-98. This was followed by two years in private practice at Milpark and Rand Clinic, Johannesburg, from 1998-2000. Maposa moved to New Zealand in 2000 and joined the Anesthesia Department at the Lakeland District Health Board's Rotorua Hospital, remaining there until 2002, when he left to pursue a pediatric anesthesia and pain fellowship in Toronto.
After the fellowship training, Maposa joined the faculty in the Department of Anesthesiology at the UT Health Science Center at Houston, Texas, in 2003 as an assistant professor in the Division of Pediatric Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology, becoming director of pediatric cardiothoracic anesthesiology in 2008.
Maposa is a three-time winner of the Dean's Award for Teaching Excellence at the UT Health Science Center. His areas of interest include pediatric cardiac anesthesia, operating room efficiency, quality improvement and teaching basic sciences for anesthesia.

As part of a national recognition of heart health, UMMC Training Center staff join representatives from the American Heart Association to provide CPR instruction to legislators and their staff Feb. 11 at the Mississippi Capitol.
They include, from left, Chastity Mitchell (AHA), Katherine Bryant (AHA), Chris Busby (UMMC), Myrna Saxon (UMMC), Elizabeth Williams (AHA), Michelle Schweinfurth (UMMC), Anya Jones (UMMC), Shayne Boackle (UMMC), Brenda Watt (UMMC), Nikki Hutson (UMMC) and Kimberly Hughes (American Cancer Society). (Enlarge Photo)
The group taught the "hands-only" CPR technique that requires no mouth-to-mouth contact, which is easier to learn than the conventional CPR method but can be critical to a cardiac arrest victim's survival.
"The goal is to train capitol staff and state lawmakers how to properly administer 'hands-only' CPR in case someone goes into cardiac arrest," said Michelle Schweinfurth, UMMC Training Center coordinator. "One never knows when they might witness someone in their community or at home experiencing sudden cardiac arrest."

Every year College of Design students journey abroad to live in and experience other cultures, returning with new perspectives about how to solve problems and about their own place in the world as global citizens. As one student put it, "If one is open-minded, there are many ways to devise a solution" to a design problem. All of the students described here have received private funds that helped support their education and made study abroad possible. For instance, John Steingraeber has received support from the KKE-Ron Krank Vision Fellowship and from the Sullivan Family Fellowship.
Four College of Design students describe their study abroad experiences here.
Shona Mosites
BS Interior Design
Hometown: Cottage Grove, Minnesota
Program: May term in Paris, France
Shona lived in Paris for a month and studied Gothic architecture. "This was my first time traveling abroad on my own. Paris is somewhere I've always wanted to go. It was hard to focus on homework while in a city like Paris, knowing all that was going on around me."
In her Gothic architecture class, she focused on furniture, preparing her for her upcoming history of furniture class.
John Steingraeber
Master of Architecture
Hometown: LaCrosse, Wisconsin
Program: May term in Istanbul, Turkey, with architecture faculty member Ozayr Saloojee
"This drawing course focused on the clash between tradition and modernity in Istanbul, a city that provided incredible inspiration for graphite, ink, and watercolor representation. Each day at 6 p.m., just after the call to prayer, our group would reconvene in the courtyard of Sultanahmet, Istanbul's famed Blue Mosque, and lay out our drawings and sketchbooks and discuss techniques, opportunities, and the events of the day.
"These days, an American traveling in a Muslim country has much to ponder. I was consistently awestruck at how the great mosque architect Sinan used the power of empty space to create real presence."
Carey Magnus
BS Apparel Design
Hometown: Oconomowoc, Wisconsin
Program: semester at Accademia Italiana, Florence, Italy, with students from other American and European universities
Fashion, Magnus said, is universal: found in every culture, every language, and every country. "At Accademia Italiana, a school across from the Pitti Palace in Florence, I took a tailoring studio and studied collection theory, 20th-century fashion history, and Italian language and literature. These classes helped strengthen my skills as a designer, showing me there are many ways to approach a problem."
Samantha Fung
BS Retail Merchandising, Management
Hometown: St. Paul, Minnesota
Program: International Education of Students Abroad, Milan, Italy
"I studied in the IES program in Milan, the center of industrial and fashion design and business in Italy. The courses I took exposed me to the entire spectrum of design through field trips, speakers, and design exhibitions. I also was a part-time intern at the United States General Consulate in the department of public affairs. Although I had hoped for a design-related internship, I learned it was possible to apply design skills and knowledge in any workplace. I also tutored two students in English and built strong relationships with them and their families. Living and studying abroad stretched me and challenged my own personal independence, self-awareness, and appreciation of differences."
Although the University works hard to make experience abroad programs affordable, travel inevitably adds to a student's financial burden. Generous donors who provide scholarship or fellowship support help make such programs attainable. As tuition continues to rise, private support becomes important.
Scholarships and fellowships provide critical support to College of Design students. To make a gift for student support or to establish a named fund, please contact Sue Danielson Bretheim, interim director of development, 612-624-1386 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Admission and Discipline Rule 6 governs Admissions on Business Counsel License and Foreign License. The Indiana State Board of Law Examiners is charged with the responsibility of overseeing the admission of attorneys from other states seeking to be admitted in Indiana without taking the bar examination.
A committee of the Board of Law Examiners reviews Foreign License applications. A foreign license is when a lawyer admitted to practice in another state may be provisionally admitted in Indiana on foreign license without examination upon a showing that he or she meets certain specified conditions. If approved, a personal interview before a member of that committee is required. If the committee is not unanimous in approval, a personal interview and approval with the full Board is required.
Admission and Discipline Rule 6, Section 5 provides that in addition to any requirements found in Admission and Discipline Rule 29, within twelve (12) months of an applicant's initial provisional license or business counsel license admission, the applicant shall attend an annual Indiana law update seminar, which seminar shall provide a minimum of twelve (12) hours of continuing education which has been approved the Indiana Commission for Continuing Legal Education.
Pursuant to Rule 6, Section 5, the Board of Law Examiners shall publish a list of approved seminars that meet the requirements of the rule.
The following seminars have been approved by the Board of Law Examiners as meeting the requirements of Rule 6, Section 5:
