Scouting The Opponents
Texas -- Texas opened their season Oct. 16 with a dual-meet win at Missouri, 150-93. The Longhorns were 2009 Big 12 champions and finished fifth at the NCAA Championships.
Texas is coached by Kim Brackin, who is in her fourth year in Austin.
Indiana -- Indiana opened up its season last Friday by going to Northwestern and narrowly downing the Wildcats, 156-144. The Hoosiers captured the 2009 Big Ten championship and finished 10th at NCAA Championships. Indiana's diving squad also captured the team title at the 2009 AT&T National Diving Championships.
Senior Kate Fesenko earned three race wins at Northwestern and broke two pool records. Fesenko competed at the 2008 Olympics for Ukraine, swimming in the 100-yard backstroke, 100-yard butterfly and 200-yard backstroke.
Indiana is coached by Ray Looze, who is in his seventh season as leader for both the men's and women's swimming and diving teams.
Familiar Foes
This will be the third year in a row that Michigan, Indiana and Texas have met in the same pool for a meet. In 2007 at Indiana, the Wolverines managed to defeat both the Hoosiers (207-163) and the Longhorns (214-156) but fell to both last season in Ann Arbor (IU 232, U-M 157; UT 225, U-M 164). Michigan holds an 18-6 record all-time against Indiana and a 1-4 mark against Texas.
Fast Starts
Fifth-year senior Emily Brunemann (Crescent Springs, Ky./Notre Dame Academy) and senior Margaret Kelly (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer) are off to scortching starts to their 2009-10 campaign. Brunemann, a 2008 NCAA champion in the 1,650-yard freestyle, has yet to be beaten in an individual event, as she is a perfect six-for-six in events she has swam in this season. She has finished first in every event, including two wins in the 1,000-yard freestyle and the 500-yard freestyle and single victories in the 400-yard individual medley and 200-yard freestyle.
Kelly, an 11-time NCAA All-American, took first place in the 200-yard freestyle and had the fastest time in the 200-yard individual medley, which U-M swam exhibition, against Toledo and Toronto (Oct. 23). She also gave Michigan a head start during the first leg of the 200-yard medley relay and was the anchor on the 400-yard freestyle relay (both wins).
Sophomores Caitlin Dauw (St. Charles, Ill./St. Charles East) took home first in the 200-yard butterfly and second in the 100-yard butterfly against Toledo and Toronto. Another sophomore, Liz Johnson (Milford, Mich./Milford), swept both backstroke races.
Not Since...
Michigan's 3-0 record to start the season is the team's best since the 1997-98 season. The Wolverines went undefeated that season (9-0), en route to a seventh-place finish at the NCAA Championships. In 2003-04, and again in 2007-08, the Wolverines lost their first dual meet and went on to win out (8-1 in '03-'04; 6-1 in '07-'08). The loss in each of those seasons were to Florida, which Michigan will face next weekend (Fri-Sat., Nov. 6-7).
Diving In
Sophomore Amanda Lohman (Pittsburgh, Pa./Upper St. Clair) is separating herself from the rest of the pack after winning the one-meter and three-meter diving events against Toledo and Toronto. Lohman's score of 307.50 on one-meter is a new career best, shattering the previous mark of 296.00, set at last season's Big Ten Championships. In two meets this season, Lohman has won the one-meter both times and finished second in the three-meter at Notre Dame (Oct. 10).
Senior Stephanie O'Callaghan (Howell, Mich./Howell) and junior Rachael Ropeik (Ann Arbor, Mich./Huron) finished behind Lohman in second and third places, respectively, in the one-meter, and swapped spots in the three-meter.
Local Connections
Michigan has not needed to go very far to bring swimmers into the program. Nineteen members from the 2009-10 squad hail from the state of Michigan, including 10 from the Ann Arbor area. Of those 10, eight are Ann Arbor Pioneer (H.S.) products: Val Barthelemy, Ashley Cohagen, Kristyne Cole, Leigh Cole, Kristina Jaeger, Kelly, Liz Koselka, and Carleigh Schwartz. The other two from Ann Arbor are Megan Craig (Mercy) and Ropeik (Huron).

Home of the Wolverines
The University of Michigan continues its commitment to athletic excellence with the Donald B. Canham Natatorium, home of the Michigan swimming and diving and women's water polo teams. Considered one of the finest college-owned swimming and diving facilities in the nation when it was constructed in 1988, a renovation in 1998 upgraded Canham to a state-of-the art swimming and diving facility.
The 59,000-square foot facility houses a 50-meter pool, eight lanes wide, that can be divided into two separate 25-yard pools by movable bulkheads. The Dick Kimball Diving Pool, located at the west end of the facility, features an Olympic Tower, one- and three-meter springboards, and a hot tub. On the east end of the mezzanine level is one of two full-service training rooms on the U-M athletic campus, which includes physical therapy modalities, a cast room, running pool and physician examination rooms. One of Michigan's three weight training and conditioning facilities also is located in the natatorium.
Completed in 1988 at a cost of approximately $8.5 million, Canham Natatorium underwent comprehensive renovations in 1998 to ensure its presence well into the 21st century. A new roofing system was installed, while the ventilation system was revised to reflect greater concern for the health of athletes. Both pools have new filtration equipment and piping that is totally resistant to corrosion. In addition, ceramic tile was installed on the interior of both pools, creating an environment that is more conducive to faster swimming, as well as more precise diving. Finally, a state-of-the-art lighting system for the competition pool area was installed, permitting lighting levels to be adjusted based upon the level of activity in competition.
The natatorium is named for former Michigan athletic director Don Canham, who retired from his post in June 1988. Canham was an NCAA high jump champion for Michigan in 1940 and went on to coach the men's track and field team before becoming Michigan's fifth athletic director in 1968.
Leading the Wolverines
Michigan head swimming coach Jim Richardson enters his 25th season at the helm for the Wolverines. Over that time, his teams have dominated the Big Ten, winning 12 consecutive league titles from 1987-98 to add to the program's 13th in 2001 and 14th in 2004. Since taking over in 1985-86, Michigan has finished in the NCAA top 10 on 14 occasions. In 1995, U-M finished in second place as a team, following that in 1996 by hosting the NCAA Championships and finishing third.
Richardson holds a career record of 161-59 in dual-meet competition, including an impressive 105-16 mark in Big Ten action. Richardson has coached nine individual national champions, 156 NCAA All-Americans and 184 honorable mention All-Americans. On the conference level, he has guided 159 individual and relay conference champions and has been named the Big Ten Coach of the Year six times. A two-time NCAA Coach of the Year (1993, '95), Richardson's athletes have excelled in the classroom as well as the pool with 30 CSCAA Academic All-Americans and 236 Academic All-Big Ten nominations.
Chris Bergére enters his eighth season as the head diving coach, and Stefanie Kerska begins her 12th season as an assistant to Richardson.
Up Next
Michigan will be in action Nov. 6-7 as it travels to Gainesville, Fla., to take on the Florida Gators. The meet is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. on Nov. 6 and continue at 10 a.m. on Nov. 7.

By Lee Pace
From T.J. Logan running a 4.37 forty-yard dash at lunchtime on Friday in Indianapolis to a cafeteria full of his former Tar Heel teammates watching on television back in Chapel Hill and cheering and woofing him on ...
From Mitch Trubisky's spot in the vortex of spirited discussion over who's the top quarterback prospect in the NFL Draft to him standing up in a press briefing at the NFL Combine and saying, "We've got seven Tar Heels here, I take a lot of pride in that ..."
All the way to Michael Jordan donning a spiffy new Tar Heel football shirt adorned with his signature "Jumpman" logo and joining Larry Fedora and six Tar Heels on the Smith Center court at halftime of Saturday's Duke game to announce a new uniform partnership between "His Airness" and Carolina football ...
It's been quite a busy and conspicuous week for a football program that didn't play a game and is facing a spring practice to-do list of replacing eight senior starters, three key juniors to early NFL departures and meshing four new assistant coaches—against the backdrop of a schedule that includes Notre Dame, Louisville and California along with the usual list of ACC Coastal Division foes.
"It was surreal," offensive tackle Bentley Spain said of standing amid the cacophony of noise and emotion around Jordan Saturday night. "I almost felt like I blacked out during it. What an experience, meeting the 'greatest of all time,' it means so much for our school and university."
"If I'd been a recruit, I'd have committed on the spot," linebacker Andre Smith added of the totality of the evening, which climaxed with the Tar Heels jetting past their archrivals for a seven-point win. "That was an absolutely phenomenal experience."
How ironic that Fedora's program, which won 19 games over the last two years, was getting oodles of exposure 600 miles to the northwest as Logan, Trubisky, Bug Howard, Ryan Switzer, Mack Hollins, Nazair Jones and Elijah Hood were poked and prodded by coaches and scouts at the league's annual meet (or meat?) market while Fedora and his retooled staff are plugging the holes that those very departures have left.
The good news is that Fedora and his coaches have been recruiting the right guys.
The bad news is they've been recruiting the right guys—and they get opportunities in the big leagues, in several cases sooner than expected.
"Having all those guys at the combine gives the younger guys inspiration of where we want to get to next year and years after that," said senior cornerback M.J. Stewart, who flirted with the idea of joining Trubisky, Hood and Jones in forfeiting his final year of college eligibility.
"It's great for recruiting for kids to see all of our guys getting that opportunity," offensive coordinator and line coach Chris Kapilovic added. "We've had a lot of fun with Twitter and those kind of things, getting our name out there and building our brand."
Through four spring practice sessions, the Tar Heels have three young quarterbacks vying for that job, a center who's never snapped in a college game, a January enrollee running No. 2 tailback and a defensive line with three players in red shirts because of injury/surgery recoveries—those among many issues to address leading to the Blue-White Game April 8.
"The effort's been good, the recall's been good, the young guys have come in and done a nice job," Fedora said. "But we have a long way to go, a long way to go. There are no established starters at any position."
Fedora was asked about the progress of Michael Carter, the fleet running back from Florida who arrived in January and is running behind sophomore Jordon Brown, and his answer could have applied to seven other January enrollees.
"He's learning, just like everyone else," Fedora said. "His eyes are real big, he's making a lot of mistakes and learning from them. That's expected. We're going to push him hard, not cut him any slack, hold him to a high standard. I'm sure his head is smoking right now. But he'll be all right."
This is likely to be a year when the Tar Heel defense, maligned early in the Fedora era for coughing up 68 points to Georgia Tech but then stabilizing under Gene Chizik's leadership the last two seasons, is asked to provide the ballast while the offense grooms a new generation of skill players. John Papuchis takes over for Chizik as the coordinator and is melding a new staff of line coach Deke Adams, who came with Fedora from Southern Miss in 2012 before bounding off to South Carolina, linebackers coach Mike Ekeler and secondary coach Terry Joseph. The good news is the Tar Heels have Smith and five returning starters and a nice reservoir of promising young players set to build on a foundation that got incrementally better as the 2016 season evolved.
"We're built on four pillars of defense—takeaways, physicality, third-downs and red-zone," Smith said. "That's what Coach Chizik preached. If you're good in those four areas, you'll have a good defense. Nothing's changed. JP has taken over and I don't feel like anything has changed. It's been an easy transition. The bottom line is we're working hard to become a much more dominating defense."
Receiver Austin Prohel played extensively as a junior at both outside and slot positions and hinted during bowl practice in December that he and a cadre of talented but little-used teammates like Thomas Jackson, Anthony Ratliff, Jordan Cunningham, Juval Mollette, Rontavius Groves and now the gifted freshman J.T. Cauthen were hearing the whispers outside the program that the 2017 receiving cupboard would be quite bare.
"They're saying we're not going to have this, not going to have that," Proehl said. "Our job is to prove them wrong."
Tuesday he added: "We have guys with chips on their shoulders, guys who want to prove no matter how many people we lost, we can win games, we can win with what we've got. I look at it as a privilege to come out here in a North Carolina uniform and prove what we've got. We have a bunch of young guys who want to show we didn't lose anybody, that we're going to be better than we were last year and the year before that."
As Fedora said, there's a long way to go for everyone. In the meantime, the Tar Heels will live in the moment and enjoy the totality of why they came to Chapel Hill in the first place—a balance of athletics, education and social life hard to equal anywhere else. Indeed, Michael Jordan taped from afar a quick welcome to the University of Michigan when "Jumpman" was unveiled in Ann Arbor last August. For the Tar Heels, he arrived in a quiet and vacant Kenan Stadium late Saturday afternoon so that his media team could get footage of him wistfully looking out from the tunnel onto the playing field that in a mere few hours would be shown to the Smith Center denizens.
Then he attempted at halftime to tell Fedora and the Tar Heels that the "sky is the limit" for their program, but in the rush of the moment even the greatest sometimes bobble the pass and it came out as the "ceiling is the roof." A malaprop perhaps, but all anyone was talking about in the national media Sunday morning and Twittersphere was the one and only M.J. and his ties to Carolina.
"Shaking his hand, what an experience," Proehl said of being a basketball fan for a night. "Then rushing Franklin Street was an experience I'll never forget. I haven't done that since I've been here. It was an awesome time. The vibe was incredible with everyone chanting, 'Go Heels.'"
That they were doing last week in spades—for many different reasons.

Salisbury Post
Rowan Memorial Hospital opened its doors to patients Aug. 1, 1936, with 80 beds and a 65-member staff. This followed more than four years of hard work and zeal by community-spirited citizens and medical professionals who raise
By Sarah Hall
Rowan Memorial Hospital opened its doors to patients Aug. 1, 1936, with 80 beds and a 65-member staff. This followed more than four years of hard work and zeal by community-spirited citizens and medical professionals who raised $180,000 in spite of the Great Depression.
The forerunner of Rowan Memorial was the Whitehead-Stokes Sanitarium, a private hospital opened by Dr. John Whitehead and Dr. J. Ernest Stokes, located on the northeast corner of Liberty and Fulton streets. In 1920, ownership was transferred to the public and the facility was renamed Salisbury Hospital, then reorganized again in 1932 as Rowan General Hospital. The building had been enlarged to accommodate 60 patients, but the need for a larger, fire-proof structure was apparent.
Attorney Burton Craige is credited with initiating the project, and Mrs. E.C. Gregory suggested the hospital be built by contributions from families wishing to establish memorials. Archibald Henderson, Mrs. Elizabeth Henderson Cotton, John S. Henderson Jr. and Miss Mary Henderson gave the four-acre site located in what was then suburbs, on Mocksville Avenue.
Others who led the way in the fundraising efforts were Mrs. Margaret Cunningham Craig, Stahle Linn, the Knox sisters, Mrs. David Oestreicher and her son Irvin, Mr. and Mrs. B.P. Beard and the Wallace family. Application to the Duke Endowment resulted in a donation of $70,000, provided the community raise another $90,000. Contributions came in from local physicians, the Episcopal Church guilds, the Nurses' Association, schoolchildren, Catawba students and others.
In April 1933, building fund contributors elected nine trustees and established Rowan Memorial Hospital Inc. Officers were A.S. Jones, president; Bryce P. Beard, vice president; James E. Stokes, secretary; and J.L. Fisher, treasurer. On Aug. 28, 1935, Jones turned the first spade of dirt, and on Oct. 17 Grand Master Charles B. Newcomb of North Carolina's Grand Lodge of Masons laid a cornerstone of Rowan granite.
The building was completed June 1, but an additional $26,000 was required to equip it. The trustees had raised this amount by July 8, when an open house was held for the public, attended by more than 3,000 people. In a brief service on the front steps, those in attendance sang a verse of "America," and St. Luke's Episcopal Church's pastor M.A. Milne gave an invocation. Building committee chairman Beard received the keys from the contractor, and he gave them to Jones, who said he had no use for them since the hospital would be open 24 hours a day.
On Dec. 1, 1995, the hospital's name was changed to Rowan Regional Medical Center to reflect the larger area it serves and its added technologies. It is licensed for 308 beds and its staff includes 160 doctors.
Currently, a new patient tower and emergency department are under construction, with completion scheduled for summer 2006.
Medical center's growth
1936 -- Rowan Memorial Hospital opens with 28,294 square feet and 80 beds.
1940s and '50s -- Added 133,458 square feet, including East wing patient rooms and the North wing.
1967 -- Added 61,500 square feet, including West wing patient rooms, new Emergency Department, new front entrance, hospitality shop, gift shop and a new chiller room (which provided central air conditioning).
1982 -- Added 100,775 square feet for the following departments: Surgery, Recovery, Emergency, Medical Records, Physical Therapy, Central Sterilization, Receiving, Loading Dock, Pharmacy, Laboratory and Radiology.
1995 -- Rowan Memorial Hospital becomes Rowan Regional Medical Center in December.
1997 -- South Rowan Medical Mall opens in China Grove in January. A major project on the Mocksville Avenue campus opens in July and adds 96,080 square feet with construction of two major areas: Wilson L. Smith Family Outpatient Center and Kiser Medical Office Building.
2000 -- Added 12,000 square feet, including renovation and expansion of the main lobby, cafeteria, kitchen, gift shop and hospitality shop, including new rest rooms and private meeting/conference rooms near the main lobby. The medical center's total square footage following this project is 432,107, not counting the parking garage.
2003 -- Rowan Regional Medical Park on Julian Road is completed. The Imaging and Physical Rehabilitation Center opens in August and the Outpatient Surgery Center in October.
2006 -- The new patient tower and Emergency Department are scheduled for completion in the summer.

Guided by Science
We're united by nature, and guided by science. Learn
The Conservancy lost a devoted friend when Brian Davies passed away in June after a yearlong contest with cancer. Brian joined the Alaska Board of Trustees of The Nature Conservancy 13 years ago and we soon learned to appreciate his penchant for critical thinking and his keen intellect as we charted our course as an organization. About a decade ago, Brian was voted chair of the trustees. Brian took the helm with a steady hand, serving as sage counsel and mentor to staff.
He also participated in the Conservancy's International Trustee Council, a role he continued through this past year. He quickly gained a reputation among his fellow trustees as a widely knowledgeable and passionate conservation leader, again an outspoken and sharp observer who delivered a message with precision and power.
Brian's consistent message through his years of leadership with The Nature Conservancy has been that people are inseparable from nature and a key part of the solution – not the problem. In this regard, Brian was a decade ahead of his time and articulated a central tenet of a new conservation approach to which The Nature Conservancy is just now giving greater voice.
Adventures took Brian and his wife, Sharon, to incredible destinations near and far. He was a life-long cycling enthusiast who did many multi-day bicycle tours and participated for several years as one of the top fund-raisers in American Lung Association rides. He trekked four times in the Himalayas, and also did hiking trips in the Sierras and Alps. He mushed the Yukon Quest and Iditarod trails. With his wife, Sharon, he enjoyed walking tours through the countryside of his native England and together they visited New York for theater and museums.
Brian had a long and engaging career with BP and devoted himself to many community organizations in Alaska. The family suggests that, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to any of the organizations that Brian was involved with, which include the Anchorage Symphony, The Nature Conservancy, UAA Honors College, Anchorage Museum, Cook Inlet Historical Society, and the Alaska World Affairs Council.
The Nature Conservancy has established the Brian Davies Fund in his honor. In establishing the Brian Davies Fund, The Alaska Chapter Board of Trustees honors the extraordinary commitment Brian has shown to The Nature Conservancy in Alaska and beyond. Brian has made the Conservancy a better and stronger force for conservation of Alaska's most biologically critical areas by always being willing to ask the hard questions and to learn as we gathered the answers. During his thirteen years as a Trustee, through two terms as Chairman of the Board, and through several years of service on The Nature Conservancy's international Trustee Council, Brian has been a tireless advocate, a creative strategist, and an effective leader.
The Nature Conservancy is a global conservation organization dedicated to conserving the lands and waters on which all life depends. Guided by science, we create innovative, on-the-ground solutions to our world's toughest challenges so that nature and people can thrive together. We are tackling climate change, conserving lands, waters and oceans at unprecedented scale, and helping make cities more sustainable. Working in more than 65 countries, we use a collaborative approach that engages local communities, governments, the private sector, and other partners.

However, his thought seems to reflect an engagement with the great moral and social thinkers of the Western cannon, particularly Aristotle and Kant. I find t … [Read more...]

Authors Note: This is not an essay/post about Glenn Beck. The ideas below have been bouncing around my head since Fall 1999 when I was first introduced to the philosophy of John Rawls.This is not about the crass politics of talk radio, but instead about a philosophical debate which dates back to Plato. In particular, this argument is one deeply rooted in the works of Rousseau, Hume, and Kant.The following is still in a rough form.

About Mehttp://www.modelmayhem.com/pickaposephotography
Pick A Pose Photography is a creative partnership. The girls discovered at a young age that the place most comforting to them was behind the camera… Their safe haven was a quiet darkroom, and their passion for photography inspired one another to dream bigger.
After years of working together in a studio environment they saw the potential to expand their abilities and work together building their business. They brought their unique perspectives together to create images that incorporated elements of a diverse fashion world and eclectic music styles, as well as still being able to maintain a traditional portraiture method. The world of PickAPose is one where the imagintations are limitless and most everything has the potential to be seen again and recreated through the eyes of it's artists. There is a sense of empowerment associated with being a photographer, when they become aware that there are images that won't be made unless they create them.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
You thought you heard the last of it, but Spygate has reared its ugly head once again. This time, the Denver Broncos have been embroiled in a scandal involving former Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and assistant Steve Scarnecchia, the son of current Patriots offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia.
After an investigation, the NFL determined that Steve Scarnecchia took a six-minute video of a San Francisco 49ers walkthrough at practice in London two days before the 49ers won 24-16. The report said that Scarnecchia acted alone and offered to show the video to McDaniels, who then declined to watch it. Still, the NFL fined both the Broncos and McDaniels $50,000 each for failing to report the incident to the league in a timely manner.
"We certainly did not view or do anything with the footage, and he was made aware that it was something we didn't condone in our organization," McDaniels said Saturday. "I failed to follow through and report it to the proper individuals in our organization and with the league."
Scarnecchia was also stuck in the investigation of the Patriots spying scandal in 2007. Apparently in the early 2000's, Scarnecchia participated in illegally videotaping teams, and is now seen as a repeat offender. The NFL will now determine whether Scarnecchia needs to be permanently banned from the league.
"When we hired Steve, it was with the understanding that he would come here and do good work," McDaniels said. "In no way did we think this situation or type of situation would come up and be an issue for us or for him."
The Broncos, who were aware of Scarnecchia's connection to the original Spygate scandal, waited two weeks to notify the NFL, and Scarnecchia remained employed by Denver through mid-November. League officials determined that was way too late, and laid down the harsh punishment. Scarnecchia has since been fired by the Broncos.
"Although I find no fault with the way the club handled this matter once you and your executives became aware of it, I nonetheless believe that some penalty must be imposed," Roger Goodell wrote in a letter to Broncos team owner Pat Bowlen. "We have no more important responsibility than preserving the integrity and competitive fairness of the game and avoiding any implication that games are decided by anything other than what takes place on the field."
While I feel the media overreacted to Matt Walsh and the explosive Spygate scandal in the past, I have to say this latest incident is alarming. Where there's smoke, there's fire. If you believe Scarnecchia acted alone, then you also believe Tim Donaghy was the only corrupt official in the NBA.
This scandal is ultimately McDaniels' responsibility, and the former Pats coordinator may find himself out of a job at season's end.
Is this latest charge against a former Belichick employee an indictment on the Patriots coach and organization? Only time will tell. I can tell you one thing: it doesn't make the team's image any cleaner.
Tags: Bill Belichick, Denver Broncos, Josh McDaniels, Spygate, Steve Scarnecchia
This writer must be a fan of one of the teams that lost badly to the Pats in the past – get over it, Pats are still doing great. The team's image is just fine – you may want to focus on your team's image.
@PatsFan – Untrue! I am a Pats fan. But point taken…perhaps I was a bit harsh. I know one thing though, it doesn't make the team's "image" look any better.
I like the Pats as much as anyone, and I don't see how this is harsh. Broncos' figures in the scandal have a connection to the Pats, and this scandal is reminiscent of what the Pats did.
The one thing I noticed is if Roger Goodell thinks the Broncos didn't do anything wrong in handling the situation once they became aware of it, then he literally fined them for nothing. Then he speaks of integrity. And the questionable handling of head hunting helmet hits.

"Absolutely LOVE these! They are a bit bigger, just a side note, but that makes them even more unique! LOVE them- reordering more!"
"I like the top part of this design where I typed my nephew's and niece's nicknames, it becomes the focal part of the sticker. I ordered two labels, one pink for my niece and one blue for my nephew. The colors stand out and I wasn't disappointed with it. I like the shade of each and the simplicity of the font. Also, the delivery is fast! It was scheduled to arrive on 05/28 but I got it today, 05/22. Awesome!"

I decided to try this 31 day challenge, despite it being from last year. I don't care about winning but I thought the ideas were interesting. Today I'm on day two but here is the pledge from day 1:
The Body Warrior Pledge
Because I understand that my love and respect for my body are metaphors of my love and respect for my self and soul, I pledge to do the following:
To stop berating my body and to begin celebrating the vessel that I have been given. I will remember the amazing things my body has given me: the ability to experience the world with a breadth of senses, the ability to perceive and express love, the ability to comfort and soothe, and the ability to fight, provide, and care for humanity.
To understand that my body is an opportunity not a scapegoat.
To be the primary source of my confidence. I will not rely on or wait for others to define my worth.
To let envy dissipate and allow admiration to be a source of compassion by offering compliments to others.
To gently but firmly stand up for myself when someone says to me (or I say to myself) something harmful.
To change the inner-monologue in my head to one that sees possibility not problems, potential not shortcomings, blessings not imperfections.
To give my body the things that it needs to do its work well: plenty of water, ample movement, stretches, rest, and good nutrition, and to limit or eliminate the things that do not nurture my body.
To see exercise as a way to improve my internal health and strength instead of a way to fight or control my body.
To understand that my weight is not good or bad. It is just a number, and I am only good.
To love my body and my self today. I do not have to weigh ten pounds less, have longer hair, or to have my degree in my hand to have worth. I have worth just as I am, and I embrace that power.
To recognize my body's strengths.
To no longer put off the things that I wish to experience because I am waiting to do them in a different body.
To understand that a body, just like a personality, is a fingerprint: a wonderful embodiment of my own uniqueness.
I like the last line the best. Especially since its hard for me to remember that
my body is supposed to look like *me.*
We compare ourselves to others all the time. So stupid. Would you compare fingerprints? Of course not.
What nurtures your body? What is your
favorite line?
I searched google for some positive body images. Here are some favorites…

It's getting cold outside. After having our first snow in VT, summer is feeling like a faint dream away. It's dark. There's a nip (translation: a violent bite) in the air. It's really quiet. It's as if everything slows down just like the waters in the brooks until everything is just frozen. Sure, winter can bring tons of fun activities: skiing, snowboarding, sledding, snow-man making, and not least of all Christmas! But for now, it's just dark.
So where would I rather be? Someplace tropical. While I can enjoy winter as much as the next Vermonter, nothing makes me smile more than some UV rays, a good book, and smack-you-in-the-face heat.
While there are many beautiful beaches in the world, something about the caribbean breeds immediate relaxation to me. Maybe it's all the Margaritas and Pina Coladas, or maybe it's that I try and do a Mexico trip every few years with my girlfriends just to get away. But whatever it is, on my drive home from work today in the pitch black, all bundled up and still cold, I will be daydreaming of laying right here:

goodman gmt ignition problem
I have a Goodman GMT (sorry don't have the exact model number that's going to require some spelunking into the crawlspace under the house) gas furnace that has been giving me issues for awhile now and I thought I ask those that know more than me, which isn't difficult :)
I've had this house for about three years, the unit was replaced 2 years before I bought it, so the unit is about 5 years old. The first year I moved in I had no problems with the heat at all, worked fine. The second year the heat would work fine 'today' but next week it wouldn't work at all. Several hours later it'd work fine again. This repeated scenario went on for about a month, and by then winter was over so I didn't worry about it
So far this year the heater has worked just like a champ with no issues until 2 days ago. The vent motor will fire up, it cycles through it's attempts to light, and it will shut down again. I turned it on a few hours ago to see what would happen, it lit up fine, starting moving heat. But I checked it a few mins after it had started working, and the air from the registers wasn't warm, the unit shut down about a minute later.
I went outside and cut power to the entire house to try to reset the unit, and it will try to startup but turns itself back off.
I can't understand why 'today' it works, and next tuesday it doesn't, then wednesday morning it's working fine again. Doesn't seem to make any sense to me.
Anyone have any thoughts on what I can check to see what's up?
Clean Flame Sensor
Did the Flame sensor work? You may even check pressure switch tube by the draft motor to ensure its clean.
Listing for what the codes are should be on one of the doors.
3 is a pressure switch eror code.

"At the Michigan Pug Rescue, we are dedicated to the survival, care and quality of life of Pugs. Rescued Pugs come from owners who can no longer care for their Pugs as a result of divorce, personal health reasons, or financial difficulties. At times breeders receive Pugs back from owners they have sold their Pugs to and turn them over to MPR to find the Pug a home. MPR attempts to get Pugs from puppy mills. Animal shelters often call MPR to find homes for Pugs which are turned into the shelter or come into the shelter through local animal control officers finding them running the streets and have no identification available to the ownership. Our goal is to give every Pug a safe and happy home through complete veterinary care prior to adoption. We do not have a brick and mortar building where our rescued Pugs are housed. We respect their privacy of each foster home and do not allow prospective adopters to visit their Homes. Once the Pug has been evaluated and treated by our Veterinarian each Pug is a placed in a foster home. Once in the foster home the Pug is evaluated for temperament and personality to determine what type of home is best suited as a forever home. Each foster home works with their Pug on crate training, housebreaking (when necessary), and socialization with other animals. "

Jets cut WR White and CB Crocker, sign RB MaduAP , Associated Press
Aug. 4, 2013 10:34 PM ET
CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) — The New York Jets have released wide receiver Jordan White and cornerback Eric Crocker, and signed three players, including former Buccaneers running back Mossis Madu.
The team also announced Sunday night it signed wide receiver Michael Campbell and center Erik Cook.
White was a seventh-round draft pick last year, and was released on an injury settlement after missing the Jets' scrimmage Saturday night. He has a history of injuries, dating to his college days at Michigan State. Crocker had an interception, but also allowed a touchdown Saturday.
Madu adds depth to the Jets' thin running back corps, which is without Chris Ivory (hamstring), Joe McKnight (concussion-like symptoms) and Mike Goodson (personal reasons). Madu spent the last two seasons with Tampa Bay, and has 55 yards rushing in nine NFL games.

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
Hi. My wife of 25 years and I recently went through a "quickie" no-fault divorce. She asked for the divorce because she was tired of me struggling professionally and wanted to "have her own life". This came out of the blue and was a complete shock to me at the time. There were no signs leading up to this.
In the very beginning, right after she asked for the divorce, she led me to believe that after the passing of some time and improvement of my work situation we might be able to work it out. So, in the interest of preventing any kind of scorched-Earth divorce scenario, I agreed to the do-it-yourself no-fault divorce available to us here in Texas.
This has all taken place within the last 6 months, btw...
Anyway, as the date for our hearing got closer and closer, her reasons and attitudes changed. A few weeks after asking for the divorce, she changed her attitude from "we can work on it in the future" to "there's no chance". That's fine, I thought, these things happen.
So, we went to court, both answered the judge's questions accordingly, and were granted the divorce. As we walked out of the court room I told her that I had just lied to the judge. I didn't want the divorce, and I had no "personality conflict" with her.
Everything I agreed to relating to our common property and shared assets was based upon the premise that she was simply not happy in the marriage anymore and wanted out. Again, I was NOT unhappy, but these things do happen. I asked her on several occasions if there was a third party involved, she assured me there was not every time.
She was lying. A month after the divorce was granted my former best friend of 35 years called and told me that he was having a relationship with my (ex) wife. I subsequently found out that this "relationship" had been going on long before she asked me for the divorce, that they had conspired between themselves to get me to agree to this no-fault divorce so I would just go away without a fight, and I now find myself in the position of having agreed to the divorce under false pretenses engineered by their deception beforehand.
Needless to say, I am less than happy about all this. I lost my home, my financial support, and pretty much my entire life. I have recovered somewhat professionally and am currently in a stable and comfortable living situation.
Still, I would like to go back to the judge, request that the original divorce degree be reversed and converted to "contested" or whatever, and force her to revisit a few issues relating to the divorce agreement itself. After which, I will gladly RE-divorce her.
People shouldn't lie to judges, and she told a whopper to him and me.
Any suggestions?
PS: The divorce was granted in January 2009. I found out about the cheating and the plot one month later.
Consult with a local attorney that specializes in divorce. You're likely out of luck, but it never hurts to ask.
By the way, if you're comfortable and stable, why rock the boat. Move on with your life and figure that Karma will catch up with both of your ex's.
"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience." - Mark Twain
I would love nothing more than to put this behind me, but I gave her some personal items that I would have kept, and am due about $50K in shared assets that I would rather not leave with the duo of cheaters.
Maybe I'm a little naive or old fashioned, but I don't think liars should be rewarded and simply walk away scot-free...
One way to get even is to press very hard for money she owes you----
Any amount due me would be difficult to determine. To her credit (and my embarrassment) we had been living exclusively on her income for quite some time. However, when I was still doing well, I had convinced her several years back to max out her 401k and I would cover the difference, which has led to a 6-figure 401k for her (it's worth about $160K or so).
Because I still loved her and wanted her to be OK (assuming she wasn't cheating on me with someone who is relatively well-off!), I left her 401k 100% to her. I could have taken 50%.
My main goal in this proposed action is not about money - it's about fact and telling the truth. She got me to agree to everything through devices of deception (I think that's a legal principle, no - heh heh?), and that's just not right. I know it sounds corny, but it's really about justice.
The worst part of it all is that I was baring my soul to the guy she was cheating with during the divorce process, like the big dummy I am. I told him everything, which naturally he turned around and used against me. It wasn't that my confidenses were incriminating or derogatory in any way, it's that he knew everything about my desire to revisit the relationship in a few months down the road.
Looking back on it, that's when things really sped up!
Thanks for your replies, all.
You are opposed to lying but you stood in court and lied to a judge. How well do you think that will go over when you try to reverse your divorce and have to tell the same judge you lied to him. Not so well huh. Sometimes it's best just to leave well enough alone and move on, no matter how painful it may be.
I acted based upon the false representations of others - primarily my ex, and as for "moving on", I think I'm doing pretty well given the circumstances.
This is not about wanting money or my ex back.
I don't need or want either, quite frankly...
Generally, you have thirty days to file an appeal. People can't keep revisiting final orders ( a divorce decree) because they have a change in heart. That's why the judge bothers to have you in and testify under oath. In some jurisdictions, for uncontested divorces, there is no hearing before a judge under oath, it's just paperwork. Your jurisdiction takes the extra step of questioning parties, under oath. I'm sure you were questioned about any possible marital assets/debts and that none were being claimed. Move on.
So what is exactly that you want? You end up being divorced either way. Does it make that much of a difference to you that it is an uncontested divorce vs contested without any other changes? She may not have been honest about why she wanted the divorce, but it doesn't change the fact she wanted the divorce. She did not falsely represent herself in that matter - she wanted the divorce and whether you contested it or not, she still gets the divorce and moves on.
Anyway, you only have very limited time to appeal and that is only if there has been a procedural error in the trial, or if the ruling of the court was not equitable ... consult a local attorney if your time has not passed to do so.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/3/2014 (1206 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
In less than six months, I have found myself having to defend decisions and a nomination process that I have no control over. I will be the first one to say it hasn't been easy.
During my recent interview with the Brandon Sun, I repeatedly made it clear that I prefer an open nomination race. I am prepared, as I have always been, to sign up new members as my team so successfully did in the fall of 2013 — selling more than 1,400 memberships.
Because of the Conservative party's National Council's decision to grandfather all the byelection winners since 2011 without having to face a second nomination, Brandon-Souris automatically falls under that category.
I want to be absolutely clear: I wasn't consulted on this decision. I was only notified of it after a decision was made. As soon as I was notified, I immediately contacted Brandon-Souris' local Conservative Electoral District Association president to make my position clear: I prefer to have an open nomination meeting. I also asked that this issue be brought up at the next meeting.
As I am sure you can all understand, it is important that any decision about a nomination race be made at arms' length from the sitting member of Parliament. It is ultimately up to local Conservative members in Brandon-Souris who sit on the electoral district association board to decide what next steps should be taken in relation to the National Council's decision.
Since being elected your MP, I have been open and accessible to the residents of Brandon-Souris. I have worked tirelessly on many different initiatives, assisted numerous constituents on case files and have brought the voice of southwestern Manitoba to Ottawa. These include securing funding for Career and Employment Youth Services in Brandon and helping resolve the possible ambulance shortage in local area rural municipalities.
As I have stated on numerous occasions, my office is open and accountable to you. I am here to serve the people of Brandon-Souris and to take your concerns to Ottawa.
Brandon-Souris Conservative MP

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
"I know a coach down in New England that loves Ed Reed. When I was in those meetings, we talked about him a lot. He's a heck of a player, he does a lot of things on and off the field because he's a leader and he understands the game of football. He needs to go somewhere he doesn't have to play 70 plays a game; where he can go in there and allow him some time to get healthier and maybe towards the playoffs if he's feeling real good, stick him in there."
-Willie McGinest
"For me, really the only spot that makes sense is New England. You could stockpile him away on the bench, let him heal up. Communication is key for everything that Bill [Belichick] wants to do on defense – that guy has the mouthpiece to make this defense better when it counts. Let him learn what Bill wants to do [and] come Week 16, Week 17, those January games, I guarantee [Reed] will pay dividends."
-Heath Evans
The comments above, made by Evans and McGinest on NFL Network's "Total Access," have set Patriots fans' hearts aflutter with the idea of Tom Brady's old nemesis Ed Reed suiting up in blue and red. Is signing Reed really a good idea, though? Evans and McGinest are undoubtedly well-respected and their opinions do deserve some credence, but respect does not make a couple former Pats greats into Ryan Grigson (or Bill Belichick), and that needs to be kept in mind.
As much as we all love and respect Reed and his hobo beard, I question whether or not Reed actually represents a valuable signing for the Patriots. McGinest and Evans make good points, but here are some words I do not see in their statements: Tackles, sacks, interceptions or games played. Unfortunately respect and being a "leader" and "understanding the game of football," as nice as those platitudes may sound, do not win championships.
Ed Reed is a shell of his former self. In 2012 (note that I am using 2012 stats here because he has played so little in 2013 due to injuries that those stats are useless), he recorded 58 tackles and four interceptions, not terrible numbers but not great either. Those numbers do not tell the whole story, though. Reed was second in the league in broken tackles last year, per Football Outsiders, and his broken tackle rate was highest in the league. Worse, those numbers represent a sharp uptick from his 2011 performance, indicating a player quickly falling from his prime. He also had the eighth-worst run stop rate in 2012 amongst defensive backs with at least 20 plays, an embarrassing 26%. Given the injuries that have rankled him this year with Houston, there is no reason to expect disappointing numbers like those to improve.
There is no doubt that the Pats' defense leaves a lot to be desired. As we begin to prepare for the playoffs, fans of every team with even the remotest of playoff chances are fantasizing about ways their team could improve those chances. Despite the Pats' defensive struggles, I have some bad news: Paying too much money for a safety well past his prime will not solve those problems. I, like you, am haunted by the memories of mid-2000's Ed Reed dominating offenses across the league. That was a long time ago, folks. In 2013, Ed Reed is more of a liability than he is an asset, and the last thing the Patriots need is another liability on defense. I, too, have fanciful ideas of Reed returning to his prime and leading my defense to a Super Bowl; but the reality is that any team that signs Reed is signing an apparition; a player who is at best a shell of his former self. As comforting as those fantasies may be, they are just that: Fantasies. Let another team make the mistake of signing Reed.

W.Va. DNR reopens shooting range with restrictions - The Herald DispatchQuote:
W.Va. DNR reopens shooting range with restrictions
June 19, 2009 @ 08:15 AM
The Associated Press
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) An Eastern Panhandle shooting range closed in May by the West Virginia of Natural Resources will reopen at the end of the month.
The DNR closed the range at Sleepy Creek Wildlife Management area because a private cabin half a mile away had been repeatedly hit by gunfire.
District Wildlife Biologist Rich Rogers said the problem developed because shooters ignored safety rules and illegally placed targets on the top of bunkers designed to stop bullets.
Because the incidents involved rifles and pistols, the DNR says when the range reopens on June 29, only shotguns will be allowed.
Shotguns do not use longer range cartridges.
The agency says it is looking for ways to develop a new shooting range
I'm glad that I don't live in the Eastern Panhandle. This just really looks bad for all West Virginians.

I hadn't planned to start a diary; I'm a pretty busy kitty. You see, it takes some effort to look like this. I know you ladies think that I just roll out of my laundry basket effurry morning looking flawlessly handsome. But the truth is; this level of purrrfections requires meticulous grooming, which can be furry time consuming. Between that and getting my 18 hours of daily beauty sleep...my days are pretty full. But my excellent furrend Jack has tagged me. Let it never be said that I would refuse a furrend; particularly one as nice as Jackamo!
HERE ARE THE RULES OF THE GAME: Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to post in their Diary (1) The Rules of the Game, and (2) Seven Pawsome Facts About Themselves. (Just copy and paste these if you like) (3) Then choose 7 cats to tag and list their names in your diary. Don't forget to purr them a pawmail informing them that they have been tagged and notifying them to read your Diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing that they've been tagged. So, without furrrther ado...
(7) I am an Excellent Hunter. Once when I was on a Safari, in Africat, I brought down two caribou with one elegant, perfectly timed leap. The whole story was in National Geographicat...perhaps you saw me??? I looked spect-CAT-ular on the cover.
(6) I Suffered a Broken Paw. The odd thing is, my meowmy had only just broken her wrist, when shortly afterward... I showed up at the door limping. She was in a meowmy cast; I was in a kitty cast. This unfortunate incident is precisely how I became saddled with the ridiculous nick name, CopyCat. (Humans!) On the bright side, the hunk of plaster on my foot got me LOTS of extra attention from the ladies, plus...it did not detract one iota from my devilishly good looks.
(5) I am Always Ready for the Beach. I wear a furry white bikini at all times. Of course, it looks adorable on me!
(4) I am a Sucker for a Belly Rub. Therefore, I am constantly vigilant in my quest to acquire said rubs. Fortunately, I'm irresistible, so I can get one whenever I want.
(3) I DO NOT Use Whiskara. There's been a nasty rumor going around Catster that I color my whiskers. Well, let me set the record straight here and now... it simply isn't true! Infact, I find such rumors not only insulting, but hurtful. This is 100% natural beauty!
(2) I'm a mousaholic! I just can't get enough of it and I like it in just about anything: Moused potatoes and gravy, Red beans and mice, Chicken-fried mice, chocolate mouse, and my personal favorite, Mice Krispy Treats. I was actually on the Catkins diet for awhile. (I could have the mouse, I just couldn't have the fur) Of course, I only dieted for health reasons, (not because I needed to lose weight) my build is puuurfect.
(1) Oh My Cats!!! I'm Gorgeous!
(1) Mitzy (the Mitzs Mitzs Mitzsaroooo!)
(2) Squirrel (the Cougar)
(3) Vincent (the Orange Terror)
(4) Short Stop (the Wonder Kitty)
(5) Cassie (the Clever)
(6) Schmitty, MooMoo, and Schmatt (my furry best pals)
(7) Kitty Whompas (don't you just LOVE that name)

January 25, 2012
WAUKESHA, WIS.—In December 2011, Carroll University students in the Business Policy capstone course participated in the national Educational Testing Service Major Field Test for the Bachelor's Degree in Business. The class averaged 157.8 of the possible 200 points, scoring in the 82nd percentile. The national average is 150.3.
Minh Vu, a senior from Hanoi, Vietnam, placed in the top 1 percent nationally, with a score of 189. He is a business finance major with a minor in global studies, and no stranger to excelling at standardized tests. On the math section of the SAT, he scored a perfect 800.
Ever humble, Vu claims he's always been very lucky. But he does have to work for his success. He said, "I kept all my books and before the Major Field Test I studied chapter summaries and my class notes. The information came back quick; I remembered a lot."
The Major Field Test in Business contains 120 multiple-choice questions designed to measure a student's subject knowledge and ability to apply facts, concepts, theories and analytical methods. The questions represent a wide range of difficulty and cover depth and breadth in assessing students' achievement levels. The test is an assessment indicator of how an individual ranks nationally and of the strength of an institution's academic program.

Then buy new gears and install kit and have a professional set them up.
Not looking for perfect but I'm looking for the best out of what i have. I don't want to throw it together, I want to learn to set up the gears, and looking for advice on that. using the old shim from this housing even if i did have it does not make sense, I have changed the carrier and the gears, It would be nice to work off off but I wouldn't just put the shim in and call it good. Next time I build an axle or re-gear these there is no doubt I'm going to buy new gears, this is too much of a pain in the ass, but I'm not giving up now. I won't have someone else set them up either.
I had simular issues with my 44, all you can do is take your time and do it right. Have you come up with any reference points yet to work from?
I don't know what you mean by a reference point. I can add shims from where I am. i have my smallest shim in the axle right now, its .008. I can work from the .018 shim by adding, but the pattern wear patterns I get don't make sense in reference to gear setup wear patterns I see online, most likely because they are used gears. I may have a shim in between .010 and .018 also, but the pattern between those does not show much of a difference.
The only thing I can thing of is just keep adding shims until I can shim it out any more in every combination, until I get a good pattern, and if i don't I can choose the best out of the pictures I take. Unless the last 3 look any decent, only thing i can do is add shim, or maybe buy a different shim kit.

TO CONTINUE TO GROW intellectually and professionally, the College's faculty must exchange ideas, share experiences, and learn or investigate new techniques with their colleagues at home and their peers off campus. These dedicated and inspired teachers also need time to continue their individual research to maintain expertise in their specialty. Scientists need time in the laboratory; writers must work with words; artists require time in the studio; all scholars need time to read, reflect, and analyze outside of the classroom environment.
|Professor Daniel Weese, Psychology
DURING HIS SABBATICAL LEAVE in spring 2004, psychology professor G. Daniel Weese, studying at Duke University, identified a potential treatment for cocaine abuse. His research on the role of certain structures in the brain involved training rats to inject themselves with cocaine to simulate cocaine abuse by humans; he then gave the test animals a drug designed to reverse the long-term changes in the brain that occur with cocaine abuse. For that work, Weese devised surgical techniques, built equipment, developed training, tested procedures, and wrote computer programs to control the testing and collection of data.
His sabbatical work has renewed Weese's enthusiasm for teaching, which is directly transmitted to his students. "I have a lot of personal interest in this work because these are novel projects," he reports. "They've never been done before."

Times' all-North Suncoast boys swimming
Swimmer of the year
Devin McCaffrey, Fr., Mitchell
Why we picked him: McCaffrey arrived at Mitchell with plenty of hype, and he delivered. The freshman earned individual conference, district and region titles in the 100-yard butterfly and 100-yard breaststroke before grabbing second place in each event at state.
Most impressive accomplishment: McCaffrey took a huge gamble at state, swimming just strong enough to squeeze into the final of both individual events. McCaffrey saved his strongest swim for the final of each event for second place. He also helped Mitchell to a second-place finish at regionals, a first for the program.
Future plans: Too soon to know specifics, but swimming and college seem to be a given at this point.
Did you know? McCaffrey is a huge Ohio State fan thanks to his father, Brian. McCaffrey said he was born in Ohio, living there three years before the family moved to Florida. Some believe it's only a matter of time before McCaffrey heads north to swim for the Buckeyes.
First team
Devin McCaffrey, Fr., Mitchell: Second at state in the 100-yard butterfly, 100-yard breaststroke
Joe Geschke, Jr., Ridgewood: 12th at state in 200 free, 13th in 500 free

Ian Ondrejka, So., Mitchell: 24th at state in the 100 breast; a key member two relays
Arthur Mapugay, Sr., Land O'Lakes: Sixth at regionals in the 200 IM; seventh in the 100 breast
Patrick Gray, Jr., Land O'Lakes: Fifth at regionals in the 200 IM, ninth in the 100 back
Andrew Wert, Sr., Mitchell: Fifth at regionals in the 100 breast

A stress echocardiogram is a test that combines a stress test with an echocardiogram. The test evaluates the health of your heart at rest and after it is stressed. Your doctor may perform a stress echocardiogram to help diagnose coronary artery disease, and to see how well your heart pumps blood and how well your heart valves work.
An echocardiogram is a type of ultrasound or sonogram. It uses sound waves to make moving pictures of your heart. A stress test involves walking on a treadmill and having an EKG (electrocardiogram) to see how the stress of exercise affects the heart.
A stress echocardiogram, also called a stress echo or an echo stress test, is only one method to monitor and diagnose heart conditions. Discuss all of your testing options with your doctor to understand which options are right for you.

Master Builders is confident an Australian construction company will find Kiwi tradespeople willing to fill 80 jobs for a project on this side of the ditch.
HR company TR7, who's advertised for the job in Australia, says it's not excluding Kiwis who can also apply, if they've got the skills.
Registered Master Builders Federation chief executive Warwick Quinn says the construction industry could do with more work and is surprised the company isn't bothering in the first instance to look at qualified Kiwis.
"They'll be surprised by what they'll find and I think they'll be able to accommodate their needs well and truly within the New Zealand economy."
Seek's Australian website is advertising the positions for carpenters and roofers, paying up to $60 an hour, with food and accommodation provided.
