STILL LIFE – AND SOFTLY SLUMBERS...World premiere Cologne | 6 December 2012 | 4 pm | Chlodwigplatz
STILL LIFE AND SOFTLY SLUMBERS... is the 2012 production by performance artists Angie Hiesl + Roland Kaiser and - after PICKnPLACE (2010) and DRESSING THE CITY AND MY HEAD IS A SHIRT (2011) - the third part of URBAN-CITY-URBAN a project cycle spanning several years.. In STILL LIFE AND SOFTLY SLUMBERS... , violence in the private and public sphere is the focus of the visual performance work.
For the premiere of their 2012 urban intervention, Angie Hiesl + Roland Kaiser have deliberately chosen the oh-so-perfect world in the pre-Christmas period. Performance installations illuminate the dark, often hidden aspects of the human soul. The project explores the many different faces of violence that exist between the two poles of victim and offender. Whether it is abuse, rape or racist hate crime: violent attacks are part and parcel of everyday life in both the public and private spheres.
Christmas, the festival of love and a family celebration likes to rejoice in an intact world, but behind many facades unimaginable abysses lie hidden. STILL LIFE AND SOFTLY SLUMBERS... adds unpleasant undertones to the pre-Christmas goings-on in the city.
The interdisciplinary project will take place in public space. The performers, Fa-Hsuan Chen and Mack Kubicki, are two expressive, courageous dancers who with great passion expose themselves to uncomfortable issues and adverse weather conditions.
URBAN-CITY-URBAN comprises project modules with different artistic approaches. The projects are conceived as an interdisciplinary work. They deal with urban development and structural change and with the effect of performance / installation art on public space and vice versa. Depending on the project, the performers are selected from the spheres of dance, theatre, performance, music and science as well as from other professional and work areas. The projects take place outdoors and are conceived as site-specific work in public urban space.

Cofidis rider David Moncoutie gave the home crowds added reason to celebrate on Bastille Day by winning stage 12 of the Tour de France on Thursday.
Sandy Casar, another Frenchman, claimed second spot on the 187km ride from Briancon to Digne-les-Bains after holding off Spain's Angel Vicioso.
Lance Armstrong retained the overall lead but lost team-mate Manuel Beltran in a crash early on in the stage.
The Spaniard quit after falling on the Col des Demoiselles Coiffees climb.
Moncoutie became the 15th Frenchman since World War II to win on France's national holiday.
"It's fabulous. I was really bad in the Alps and I wanted to take my revenge in this stage, " said Moncoutie, who was claiming his second stage win in five Tours.
"I wanted it so badly to salvage my Tour. To win on July 14 is just great. I'm so happy."
Moncoutie took the lead on the Col du Corobin, the fourth of five climbs and cycled alone to the finish past cheering crowds.
Armstrong cruised in with his main rivals in a group more than 10 minutes back but stayed top of the rankings.
Beltran, 34, got back on his bike after his crash but quit after receiving treatment from a Tour doctor, Discovery Channel team spokesman Jogi Muller said.
Beltran, who has been part of the American's Tour-winning team since 2003, is a specialist mountain climber and will be missed by Armstrong when the race heads into the Pyrenees on Saturday.

Yellow Mountain
After a quick flight from Beijing to Tunxi head to Huangshan, or Yellow Mountain in the southern Anhui province in eastern China. Prepare to have your breath swept away as you step in to Huangshan Village, a UNESCO World Heritage site with more than 140 ancient, well preserved houses from the Ming and Qing dynasties. It's where today's artists and photographers flank the banks of the water to capture the scenery that has captivated hearts for centuries. The water's reflection of the homes and the hills behind is simply awe inspiring.
In the village, you might recognize a cinematic scene from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, where the woman bound from one well-worn rooftop to the next. You too will want to take flight at this site.
Floating on a cultural cloud nine; grab a cable car up to Yellow Mountain, now known as the Avatar Mountain as it was James Cameron's inspiration came from for his big blockbuster. You can easily see why.
Twenty minutes in to your cable ride, you jump out for the night. Pack light as the remaining journey to your hotel involves 45 minutes on foot up and down serious and scenic ascents, trekking with bags in tow.
You can hire a porter to carry you and or your luggage up, which seems silly until 30 minutes into the trip. Yet wiry porters pass quickly with poles carrying stacks of dishes and towels. Everything on the mountain, from furniture to forks and dishes, is porter transported on a daily basis to the hotels above.
A UNESCO World cultural and natural heritage site, Yellow Mountain is one of China's most visited sites in the country and is the sister park to America's Yosemite. The mountains were carved out of glaciers and have been the subject of many photographers, painters and artists. Give yourself two overnights to capture several scenic points reachable on foot.
Hit Beginning to Believe Peak, Flower Scattering Valley and Lion's Peak. The landscape changes quickly as mists roll in and out hiding and illuminating crystal like peaks reaching 1,000 meters (3,250 feet).
Post trek at the hotel, enjoy local Huizhou cuisine; one of the eight celebrated cuisines in China with its braised, steamed and smoked dishes. Accommodations at the top are simple and very rustic. The luxury lies in the landscape.
Once down the mountain, visit Bao's Family Garden, once the largest privately owned garden in China. You'll be blown away by the many types of bonsais in this Hui style garden. Then slip in to Tang Yue Village to see the Tang Yue Archways, seven stone memorial arches, three built in Ming and four in the Qing Dynasty. Each archway is placed in order of loyalty inclusive of women's charity and chastity and each is attached to a story.
Before heading back to town, drop in to Chengkan Village, famous for its Ming and Qing architecture. Keep cameras handy as it's a photo flip book of old world moments of fisherman up to their necks with nets, buffalo roaming freely on the streets and beautiful babies with caring grandparents by their side. For more information go to www.cnto.org
Zhangjiajie is another area noted for its Avatar inspiration. Just a few hours flight from one of China's key cities, Zhangjiajie is located in the Hunan province of south-central China. Home to China's first national forest park, this eco-savvy area is filled with stunning scenic vistas, endless natural beauty and multiple UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Arrive in to Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport (DYG) and check in to Hotel Pullman Zhangjiajie. Start your exploring at Yellow Stone Village (Huangshizhai Village), a mountainous area within Zhangjiajie National Forest Park with sightseeing platforms and cliffs overlooking sandstone peaks at an elevation of 1,080 meters (3,543 feet).
Take in the beauty of Golden Whip Stream, within the Wulingyuan Scenic area of the park. Dense forest and jutting peaks surround the stream. Visit Xibu Street, an area where typical Zhangjiajie architecture and folk life is displayed through performances and music by the locals.
The Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is an area filled with waterfalls, rock formations and a large granite slide that will send you right back to the base of the canyon. The "glass bridge project" is in the planning stages at the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon and will span more than 1,200 feet and boast the highest bungee jumping experience.
Trekkers, hike the Baofeng Lake area where you are welcomed by macaque monkeys on your way to a Buddhist temple. Local Tujia people sing to boaters passing by. You can capture the local culture in the evening where traditional dancing, singing and Chinese acrobatics are capped off in an outdoor courtyard with a bonfire finale.
There are many peak experiences to be had in the region. Ascend Tianzi Mountain via a 40-minute cable car ride. Mt. Tianzi is noted for its peak forests, splendid vistas of jagged rock formations, misty clouds and cascading waterfalls. The Tianzi Mountain cable car transports visitors down the Ten-Mile Gallery in the Suoxi Valley Scenic Spot, where.the mountains look like an outdoor sculpture garden.
Be sure to head out to Tianmen Mountain from the downtown rail station to take in the world's longest mountain cable car to Tianmen's summit, which features the highest peaks in Zhangjiajie. As you travel up in the cable car, see the "Highway to Heaven," which makes 99 serpentine turns heading toward Tianmen Cave, the natural mountain-penetrating Karst cave with the highest elevation in the world. Red Bull recently hosted the first-ever World Wingsuit League Grand Prix here.
You won't miss the buzz of Beijing or any city with all of the beauty and adrenaline pumping, peak experiences available in Zhangjiajie.

Thank you for making us see what is possible and what needed to be done to give us a chance. Sad ending, but many thanks.
to think that coach Tedford reads this message board and even cares one cent what anyone here might think. If you really MEAN it, please write him a letter - personal and no one will need to know how you REALLY feel..

I would also be in favor of naming something substantial in or around the stadium after him.
yeah I'd be in support of this. He did a lot for us and for all the good memories I'm going to say thanks Coach. Best of luck in your future endeavors. I suspect in the long run this break will be a good thing for him too he will probably come back a much better coach again.
Tedfords tenure provided me with timeless memories. Those early years defined my college Saturdays. It's too bad it didn't work out but these Last few years simply have been too toxic for everyone involved.
Thank you Coach Tedford. You are a class act. I know sometimes the wheels fall off -- we all go through that. Good luck on your next job.
Cal football is undoubtedly better off for having had Tedford as its coach. It was time to go in a new direction, but I appreciate what JT did, getting the stadium built and raising the expectations of the fan base.
Thanks coach. 2002-2007 was fun.
Thanks Coach. You will always be remembered for what went right, not what went wrong. And you've left the program much better than when you got here.

From a very appreciative Cal and Coach Tedford fan
I rooted for Coach Tedford hard. Good guy. Good luck!
Thanks Coach - Cal is in great shape for the future (e.g. New Memorial Stadium, SAHPC)
Thank you Coach Tedford! For everything you have done for Cal. You put us back on he map - and for that, everybody here should be grateful. Best of luck to you.
Thank you Coach Tedford for bringing excitement back to Cal football for many years!
Really sad about this. I knew it had to happen but now that it is here, it is tough. Though the end was bad, most of his time here was great. Thanks for the great memories most of which people here have already mentioned.
Thanks Coach Tedford for making Cal football relevant. You could have had your pick of jobs in 2004, but you stayed loyal to the program. You could have left during the treetard debacle, but you saw the new CMS to fruition.
You have left Cal in great shape for your successor and you will always be respected for all your accomplishments at Cal.
I'll be rooting for you where ever you go (hopefully not in the Pac12!).

|Ganauche III
|9th Vongola Lightning Guardian
|Vongola Famiglia
|Vongola Nono & Guardians
|Manga Debut
|Chapter 288
Character OutlineEdit
Ganauche III is the 9th generation Lightning Vongola Guardian.
Ganauche III is a middle-aged man with black hair on the back half of his head and blonde hair in the front. He wears the suit and tie outfit commonly seen amongst Vongola members. Additionally, Ganauche appears to be younger than the other 9th generation Guardians.
Personality Edit
He seems rather light-hearted and amiable, since he was the only one amongst Timoteo's Guardians to be amused when Tsuna called Timoteo "grandpa", and tousled Tsuna's hair afterwards.
Plot OverviewEdit
Inheritance Ceremony ArcEdit
He first appeared along with Timoteo and the other guardians when they arrived at Japan, and are staying at hotel. At the hotel, Ganauche and Coyote discussed about the Giegue Famiglia, who had already found the whereabouts of the Family that intended to sabotage the Inheritance Ceremony. They say that the Giegue Family will wipe out the culprit, as a gift for the Tenth Boss. The Ninth's Guardians later appear at Tsuna's house and escourt him to the hotel, where the Ninth is staying. Timoteo greets Tsuna, and comes to the decision that Tsuna is too kind to be a mafia boss, but he is the only one that can change the corrupted Vongola to its original purpose, a vigilante group. When Tsuna says that he needs to think about it, Ganauche escorts him out of the hotel. The next day, Tsuna tells the Ninth that he has decided to not be a boss. Timoteo accepts his decision, but Bouche interrupts their meeting, and says the Tsuna has emergency phone call from Gokudera. Tsuna than rushes to the hospital, and Ganauche asks the Ninth's opinion. At the Inheritance Ceremony, he defended Tsuna and Timoteo when they realized the enemy have moved to take the "Sin," and was surprised, like everyone present, when he found out that the Simon Famiglia was the one who attacked them.
Weapons and AbilitiesEdit
- Gun: Ganauche used a gun, but it was destroyed by a member of the Simon Famiglia.
- Scudo Fulmine (lit. Lightning Shield): An electromagnetic barrier created by his Lightning Ring.
- Difesa A Circolo: A defensive circle created by him and the other five guardians with the Flames of their Rings.
- As with the other 9th generation guardians, Ganauche's name comes from a dessert of some kind. In his case, "Ganauche" comes from "ganache," a glazing, filling, or icing for pastries made from chocolate and cream.

M J Tobias Pocket Watch Identification?
My Father was an avid watch/clock collector from pocket watches to Grandfather Clocks, Banjo clocks, and everything in between. He died in 2003 before I could ask him about a watch he had bought a very long time ago.
Here is the info I have on my own observation and 2 cards which came with it, as well as photos.
The information is as follows: it is a keywind, and beginning with the face:
FACE: It looks a bit like Mother of Pearl, and is engraved with a tall ship, ocean, mountains, and tropical buildings and palm trees. The hands are black while the Roman Numerals are in gold.
BACK INSIDE LEFT TO RIGHT: Top has a number of 22466 while at the right side it reads something like "tgtt?g", K 188 (with the second 8 far smaller, and extremely close to the first 8) And, a final #13268 which repeats itself on the dust cover and the works as well.
OUTSIDE OF DUST COVER: Reads exactly from top to bottom,
Holes Jewelled
Hands - (keyhole) - No 13268
M J Tobias & Co
INSIDE OF DUSTCOVER: To the left at the bottom, the number 13268 appears again.
WORKS: Well, I don't know much about them at all, but I hope the photo can tell you about it. They look like what I found in researching other pocket watches.
I did polish it with a gold polishing cloth, and was amazed at the dirt on it, but it polished up rather nicely, and is definitely gold in color.. Needs a bit more, though. My Mother did not know it was gold in color, and always thought it was silver. Probably because of the dirt on it.
Any information on it would be appreciated. It is attached to a fob, and it is up in the air whether or not it is gold. Parts polish gold well, others do not. The chain needs extensive polishing.
The note cards which came with it state this:
1st card: Tobias, Morris 1798-1800
Tobias, Morris & Co Wapping 1804-12
2nd card: M. J. Tobias & Co Liverpool # 13268
For future references, I have also included my observations on these cards as well as photos of the watch.
Thank you.
Re: M J Tobias Pocket Watch Identification? (By: Smiley4554)
In the 19th century, the Swiss were not the pre-eminent watchmakers they later became. They made many imitation American watches, and they made many watches that claimed the provenance of famous British watchmakers. One such watchmaker was M.I. Tobias. There probably are 20 M.J. Tobias watches (or more) for every genuine M.I. Tobias. Some may have been retailed by Tobias' successors. Others likely were 19 Century equivalents of fake Rolexes, etcs.
The movement in your watch appears to be rather ordinary and typical Swiss cylinder mid-19th century movement, but there is nothing wrong with that, of course.
Re: M J Tobias Pocket Watch Identification? (By: Ethan Lipsig)
I have to agree with Mr Lipsig. I don't think your watch ever saw Liverpool in England nor did it have anything to do with M J Tobias or his successors.
Having said all of that, it is an interesting looking watch.Jerry

Thank you both for you information. I will print it out and place it with the watch for future owners.
Re: M J Tobias Pocket Watch Identification? (By: Smiley4554)
I have an M J Tobias & Co London watch, otherwise pretty similar to this one. 13 Jewels Detached Lever. All the references I can find for M J Tobias include "Liverpool". Does anyone know about London? Any ideas on date ?

Morris Tobias (the uncle) operated from London but not his nephew M.I. Tobias (not M.J. Tobias). If your watch is a bar movement it is Swiss made. Mike

DBA Scenarios
Battle of Teutoburger Wald (9 A.D.)
By Chris Jones
Quinctilius Varus. Not a household name maybe but he changed the course of history in 9 A.D. His actions led to the frontier of the Roman Empire being on the Rhine rather than the Elbe. The Germanic peoples remained outside the immediate control of Rome and eventually Germanic influxes were responsible for the fall of the Western Empire. Rome was forced to maintain a strong garrison on the Rhine frontier which limited their expansion elsewhere. All this came about through a display of military incompetence which is hard to credit in the professional Marian Roman army.
Essentially Varus was in command of three Legions of crack Roman troops - the finest soldiers of their day. These were Legions XVII, XVIII and XIX. Never heard of them - there is a reason. Read on. Varus was operating on the German frontier and had agreed an alliance with the chief of the Cherusci tribe, a certain Arminius (or Hermann the German). Varus then proceeded to take his forces with heavy baggage through the Teutoburger Wald, a rough region of steep hills, forest and bogs.
However, unbeknownst to him, Hermann had other ideas than an alliance. Having served in the Roman army he was aware of the inability of the Roman army of his day to operate succssfully in such terrain. To cut a long story short he launched a series of ambushes against the Romans marching in column along such tracks as there were and wiped out all three legions.
The Emperor Augustus was inconsolable, did not eat or drink for days and ran around his palace in Rome shouting 'Varus, Varus, give me back my eagles!' Hermann was wounded in a later battle and his resistance to Rome faltered. However, the cost of replacing the Legions meant that Rome never seriously attempted to conquer the Germans. There is a large memorial today in the Teutoburger Wald to 'Hermann der Cherusker' in which he is portrayed as an early German resistance fighter.
Simulating Teutoburger Wald in DBA
The Armies
Marian Romans (#59) - 8 x Bd, 2 x Ps, 2 x Cv, 2 x Baggage
Early German (#57) - 1 x Bd, 8 x Wb, 3 x Ps
The majority of Terrain should be bad going - forest and steep hills mainly. There should be a road leading from one base edge to the other. Basically the terrain should look like the last place you would wish to lead a heavy infantry force.
The actual battlefield was discovered at Kalkriese near Osnabrück and is the subject of an on-going archaelogical project.
The Romans must deploy on the road in column. They cannot leave the road until the ambush is sprung.
The Germans can be deployed anywhere within 1 move (200p) of the road in ambush. They cannot be seen until they move. The ambush is automatically triggered on a PIP score of 1 if there are Romans within 1 move, or otherwise when the German player decides.

Going downhill fast: Norwegian Dawn Cruise Review by P Essex
Overall Member Rating
Going downhill fast
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Tampa
The service:
Other than the cabin steward, who was indifferent and never cleaned up anything on the balcony, we encountered few problems. He left dirty, wet towels in the sink one night and never replaced the empty box of tissues - he just left the tissue box open and went elsewhere for the night. We're still waiting for the extra balcony chair he promised us on Day 2. He also needs a refresher course in bed making. In the ten cruises I've taken this guy was the worst cabin steward ever. The butler was good, coming around a few times a day to check on us and sent cheese and crackers every afternoon. The rest of the staff was OK..
The restaurants:
We never got into the Venetian or Aqua - the lines were awful all week. We had a More reservation for Aqua one night and upon arriving were told that 1) she couldn't find it and 2) they didn't take reservations anyway. I had her call the concierge, who gave us some really cockamamie made-up-on-the-spot lie about why our reservation wasn't there, but he walked us to La Cucina and we got a free dinner for two and a free bottle of wine. We had breakfast and lunch at Cagney's every day, had dinner at La Cucina twice, Bamboo twice, Le Bistro once, Moderno once and on the last night, ate at Blue Lagoon. Cagney's was good, La Cucina was good, Bamboo was good, the food at Moderno was good but the wait time for our 7 PM reservation unacceptable, Le Bistro good and Blue Lagoon dreadful. Nothing was great. The Garden Cafe looked like a high school cafeteria and the food looked just as unappealing. They made no effort to provide variety, dress the place up at dinnertime or to serve anything but basic food. Ugh.
More lies:
We saw online that suite guests were entitled to three free bottles of liquor, but the fine print on the bottom gave the cruise line the option of not providing it on certain cruises or in certain class suites. I found this extremely dishonest - it gives them a way of denying a well-advertised perk to anyone they want, at any time they want. When we pointed it out, they gave us a six-pack of Pepsi and two bottles of water. Thanks, guys.
We received a letter from NCL outlining the perks of being a silver or gold member. One of the perks was 10% off spa services. All services except the one I apparently received. The looked puzzled when we even brought it up.
The Spa: Not bad. I didn't get the hard sell that I've gotten on other cruise lines and the aesthetician was friendly and extremely proficiant.
Priority disembarkation was great, the best managed ever.
I liked the Dawn quite a bit until this cruise, but I don't think I'll be vacationing with them again. After sailing on a lot of the Holland America ships and a Celebrity a lot of things seemed low-end, mismanaged or falsely advertised. Less

Cabin review: 9232
The cabin:We were in Penthouse Suite 9232, which isn't a penthouse nor a suite but an aft-facing corner cabin. It was well-designed - good closet space, big bathroom, good-sized vanity outside the bathroom. But there was too much furniture crammed into what was basically - in my estimation - an 18 by 18 foot room. The room contained a bed - advertised as queen but it seemed bigger - with two nightstands; a bench at the bottom of the bed; a built-in desk; a 30" square table with four chairs; a chair that converted to a twin-size bed; an easy chair with a foot rest; a round side table and a large plant. Can you imagine? We could barely move around the cabin. The picture on the NCL website shows a far more spacious layout than it really is. The cabin is advertised as being able to accommodate four guests, but this was absolutely not the case unless two of the guest were willing to share one fold-out twin bed and they're willing to sleep a foot away from the other two guests with just a curtain separating them. Our balcony wasn't all that large, either - it had one lounge chair that had to be kept parallel to the railing because there wasn' t enough room to place it looking out to sea, and one regular chair. Many other had two lounge chairs, which made the balconies really crowded, so I suppose we were better off. There were two cushions on the one lounge chair, in need of replacing - they were frayed and dirty. We were told that there used to be another lounge chair there but that it was moved and was missing on the ship.

I had an open revision rhinoplasty 2.5 weeks ago, including cartilage grafts to bridge and tip. Also septoplasty. I understand that swelling in this situation can be severe do to all of the work and that this is my 2nd time around. I just am so worried that with all the grafts placed, this might be the size of the nose the doctor intended? I am hoping it is all swelling, but it doesn't appear to be decreasing in swelling and it is very firm/hard to touch. Any insight? Thank you.
Does This Look Like Swelling? or is This the Result?
Doctor Answers 10
Swelling Following Rhinoplasty
2.5 weeks is still very soon after your surgery, and your swelling has reached its peak. The final result of a rhinoplasty is not evident for 18-24 months following surgery. 70% of the swelling will be resolved after the first three months, and the remainder of the swelling will go down over time. It is important to be patient during the healing process. Any immediate post-operative concerns should be addressed with your surgeon, as he/she knows the extent of your surgery and exactly what was performed. Thank you, and I hope this helps answer your question.

3 weeks post-op
Three weeks post surgery is still very early for you to judge the results of your surgery - a lot will change in the next few months
Learn more: http://www.seattlerhinoplasty.com/html/index.php
This appears very normal for revision rhinoplasty. You are probably three times the size you are going to be. Be patient and keep the faith. Things will look better in 2 or 3 months, but you are now on an 18 month plan to see your final result.

Two and a half weeks after Revision Rhinoplasty Surgery is too soon to judge your final result.
I read your concern and reviewed your photos. All of your photos demonstrate a pleasing nasal appearance except your frontal view which shows a wide appearance. In my opinion, there is too much swelling right now to judge how you'll look in a few months. I agree that it takes a year or longer for post-surgical swelling to completely resolve, but the majority of swelling should be gone in a month or two.
You could ask your surgeon if a short course of prednisone might be helpful for reducing some of your swelling. This may help you feel more comfortable with your appearance.
All the best to you during your recovery.
Regards from NJ.

Post-op Rhinoplasty Swelling
Thank you for the pictures, but they are not necessary - 2.5 weeks after surgery there is always normal temporary swelling. This swelling will decrease significantly over the next 2-3 weeks, but we typically tell patients it takes about 1 year to see the final result. it will take even longer in a patient who had revision surgery with cartilage grafts. Best of luck!
Nose swelling after revision rhinoplasty
You appear to have an expected amount of swelling after an open revision rhinoplasty. After just 2.5 weeks you're quite a ways off from your final result so the fullness and firmness are normal at this stage.
It takes many months for the swelling to fully resolve. The majority is gone by 12 months but in my experience there is additional fine tuning that occurs over the following few years as well.
Learn more: http://www.drlamperti.com/facial-plastic-surgery/rhinoplasty
Early postoperative swelling from a revision rhinoplasty
Your nose has the appearance of being swollen at this point in time. It is very common to have the tip be two or three times the final size within the first 3 to 4 weeks after surgery so I would be patient at this time.
Dorsal graft looks crooked after Rhinoplasty
IMHO, from the picture the dorsal graft appears crooked and off to the right. You surely have swelling at this early post Rhinoplasty phase and it's best to have this discussion with your Rhinoplasty surgeon.
Learn more: http://www.drfpalmer.com
Rhinoplasty results
It can take several months for swelling to subside after rhinoplasty, especially if this is a revision and there were grafts placed. Be patient, see your surgeon regularly, and don't expect final results for 3-6 months.
Swelling after rhinoplasty takes months to improve
Swelling after rhinoplasty takes MONTHS to improve. This can be a VERY trying time as you are excited to see the new result; however, try to be patient. Although you will see rapid improvement over the first 3 months, the normal nose takes 12-18 months for all the swelling to resolve.

text: Home > How To > Exteriors > Fixing Hairline Stucco Cracks Exteriors Q&A Fixing Hairline Stucco Cracks By Ron Webber Login or Register to download the PDF version of this article. (75.92 kB) A.Ron Webber, a veteran plastering contractor in Orange, Calif., responds: I do not recommend using plastic stucco cement — actually a blend of portland cement, silica sand, lime, and fillers to increase plasticity — for patching. It has a high water content and develops a lot of very small shrinkage cracks as it dries, which can cause a patch to break apart prematurely. A better approach is to repair dead hairline cracks — where the stucco is stable and the cracks don't change size or reappear — by dusting them with premixed, pigmented stucco. I pour dry stucco powder into a cup, then use a dry 1-inch brush to dab the powder into the cracks. Immediately after dusting, I brush any excess off the edges (to prevent buildup) and blend in the patch. Moisture from the night air will help the cement set up overnight.This technique is quick and easy and gives me a better color match than a wet-mortar repair. Dusting allows me to blend the patch in with the existing texture; simply filling in the cracks tends to leave a telltale "snail trail" of different stucco textures.

Underpants Sking and Cows
So some women in Sweden (apparently) decided to go sking in their underwear. Of course, they had to loosen up so they drank some beer and moonshine. Also, they used cows.
Sweden sounds awesome.
We're not exactly sure why they're doing this. They speak English, but its difficult to understand.
But, still.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. – It had to be difficult for the Connecticut football players to watch a visiting team celebrate in their stadium. Cincinnati did that Saturday evening after a 34-17 victory over the Huskies at Rentschler Field.
The end result meant Cincinnati (9-3, 5-2 Big East) earned a share of the Big East title for the fourth time in five years. On the other sideline, UConn (5-7, 2-5) will not go bowling for the second consecutive season. That was a two-fisted combination punch the Huskies found unbearable and painful.
"It sucks," UConn tight end Ryan Griffin said. "They were dumping Gatorade on their coach's head and . . . it sucks."
Point to the non-conference losses against North Carolina State and Western Michigan. Dissect the loss at Rutgers or the overtime defeat to Temple. Bowl-less in Storrs seemed to be a foregone conclusion on Nov. 3 when the Huskies lost to South Florida and fell to 3-6 overall. But victories over Pittsburgh and Louisville gave the Huskies hope. UConn could have become bowl eligible with a victory over Cincinnati Saturday at Rentschler Field and there was excitement in the UConn camp all week.
But asking the Huskies to overcome a season full of transgressions was just too much. And the Bearcats had too many tricks up their sleeves.
"We wish we could've done a little more and really wish that it could've worked out for us," UConn coach Paul Pasqualoni said. "But it didn't. That doesn't diminish the fact that we're proud of the kids."
The Huskies trailed 14-0 and 21-10 but closed the gap to 21-17 on a 1-yard TD run by Lyle McCombs with 17 seconds remaining in the third quarter. It was the UConn's first touchdown scored in the second half of Big East play this season.
As glorious as the moment seemed, the drama ended there.
|Gatorade shower for Butch Jones (US PRESSWIRE)
Starting quarterback Chandler Whitmer (16 of 31 for 264 yards, one TD and one interception), who suffered a concussion last week against Louisville, left the game with another head injury during the drive that led to the McCombs' touchdown. Johnny McEntee replaced Whitmer and completed the 15-play, 69-yard drive.
But with 11:01 left in the fourth quarter, McEntee was intercepted by Deven Drane at the UConn 35. Drane returned the ball to the UConn 4 and running back George Winn found the end zone on first down to give the Bearcats a 31-17 lead. Cincinnati got two field goals in the fourth as well, outscoring the Huskies 13-0 in the final quarter.
"Johnny thought it was man coverage and it was not," Pasqualoni said. "It was zone. It was just one of those split-second decisions a quarterback has to make. Tonight it was the wrong decision. That's not unique to John. That happens. That happens."
After falling behind 14-0 early in the second quarter, the Huskies did show signs of life.
UConn got on the scoreboard with a 40-yard field goal from freshman Bobby Puyol with 6:43 left in the second quarter. It was the first field goal on the first attempt of the career of Puyol, who was called into action when regular Chad Christen tweaked a muscle in his right leg early in the week.
Following a three-and-out for Cincinnati, Whitmer connected with Griffin on one of the most exciting plays of the UConn season. On first down from the UConn 26, Whitmer passed to Griffin over the middle. Griffin caught the ball at the 35, and showed a burst of unexpected speed as he raced toward the end zone. Drane tried to trip him up but Griffin staggered the final eight yards or so and lunged into the end zone.
"It was a great play by Chandler, he just put it on me and luckily I was running for my life," Griffin said. "I felt something coming. I knew I wasn't just going to waltz in there. I had all that momentum [on the lunge]."
The 74-yard play seemed to give the Huskies a lift, but Cincinnati quarterback Brendon Kay and tight end Travis Kelce were a lethal tandem for the Bearcats. They combined for three touchdowns, two from Kay to Kelce and a third on a trick play. Kay threw a backwards screen play to Kelce, who then threw back across the field to Kay who raced down the right sideline for a razzle-dazzle, 39-yard TD that made it 14-0.
Kelce, who redshirted his first year, played as a wildcat-formation quarterback and tight end under now Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly in his second year. He then sat out his third season, suspended for violation of team rules.
"A receiver paints a picture for a quarterback," Cincinnati coach Butch Jones said. "As a quarterback you have to have great anticipation and read their body language. [Kay] reads Travis's body language really well. He put the ball in places where only Travis could make a play on it. Travis Kelce is one of the best athletes we have on this football team."
Kay completed 19 of 29 passes for 245 yards and two touchdowns. With Trevardo Williams, UConn's all-time sacks leader, limited because of an ankle injury, the Huskies managed just one sack. Whitmer was brought down four times and said he had an instant headache after taking the third-quarter shot from Greg Blair on a trick play.
"We were a patchwork group," Pasqualoni said, referring to all the injuries.
Whitmer hit his head on the turf and said he couldn't remember anything other than McCombs telling him to sit down. He wobbled back to the UConn sideline after the Cincinnati coaches helped him stand and somewhat steady himself.
"He's a competitor and it showed," Jones said. "We kept telling him to take a knee and he didn't want to take a knee and I think that shows you about his character – his competitive character. He's a gutsy young man."
That sums up UConn's situation in recent weeks. The Huskies went down fighting because they cared so much. And for that reason, the final result was hard to swallow.
"Very surreal emotions," senior linebacker Sio Moore said when asked to describe his emotions. "I love all my guys, I love my teammates, I love my defense. We went through a lot and we fought every time we played. A lot of teams would bow down. But we didn't. And that's one thing I can say about my guys.
"You never think it's over until it's really over."

College Field Hockey
Rider's Schneider NEC & ECAC Player of the Week
SOMERSET--Senior Marlaine Schneider (Feasterville, Pa./Neshaminy) of the Rider University field hockey team was named the Northeast Conference Player of the Week for all games October 1-7 it was announced Monday afternoon.
Schneider was also awarded Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Player of the Week honors on Tuesday.
A 5-6 forward and team captain, Schneider had two goals and an assist for the week including the game-winner in overtime as Rider (8-4, 1-0 NEC) defeated Robert Morris University 5-4 on Sunday. Schneider gave Rider a 1-0 lead at RMU at the 13:50 mark of the first half.
"That's awesome," said head coach Lori Hussong. "Marlaine stepped her game up this weekend when we needed it the most."
Against Columbia on October 3, in a 3-2 Bronc loss, Schneider assisted on the first goal of the game.
Schneider has six goals and three assists this season and her 98 career points (33g, 32a) are 10th best on Rider's all-time scoring list.
Winners of 24 NEC regular season contests in a row, Rider travels to Connecticut for a pair of conference games, visiting Sacred Heart on October 12 and Quinnipiac on October 14.
"We are counting on Marlaine to be at her best as we continue through our conference play," Hussong added. "She worked hard this past weekend, played like a champion and gave our team the energy and leadership that we needed to get a positive result."

//English// It was so lucky for us to choose Randonnee Nepal Treks. Not only dyring the trekking, but all way through from the pick up at the airport to the nd of treking in Pokhara, the guide and porter were so helpful and kind. Also the price was very reasonable one which made us possible to save a lot of money comparing to booking to other agents that we originally planned to use. Their English and French are very fluent, we had no problem with communiction. We went trekking from Pokhara to Ghandruk/Gorepani/Poonhill, the treking roads were well maintained and there were many tea houses and easy and very safe to walk. However, sometimes the slope was steep or the there were not enough signs to show which way to go, so we highly recommend to arrange guide and porter. //Japanese// Ranndoinne Nepal Treksを利用して本当によかったと思っています。 トレッキング中だけではなく、カトマンズ空港での出迎えからポカラに帰ってくるまでずっと親切に旅のサポートをしてくれました。価格も当初使おうと思っていた日系の現地旅行会社よりもかなりリーズナブルで、現地での理不尽な追加料金もなく、満足しています。 ガイドさんは英語、フランス語ともに堪能で、コミュニケーションには全く問題ありませんでした。(同社には日本語が話せるガイドさんもいるようです。) トレッキングはポカラからガンダルク、ゴレパ二、プーンヒルというコースでした。当初想像していたよりもきれいな山道で、休憩できる小さなレストランもところどころにあり、快適な道中でした、やはり重い荷物を持っては厳しい急な坂や標識がなく、道に迷うところもあるので、ガイドさんとポーターさん付きで行くことをおすすめします。 Best regards Yousuke Fukushima email@example.com

Jennifer Lopez's stylist, Mariel Haenn, wants us to know there was no problem with her client's dress.
"The Oscar dress was custom made for Jennifer by designer Zuhair Murad. The dress fit perfectly to her every inch," Haenn tells Lifeline Live in a statement.
"There were cups built in and there's no chance that there were any -- how do you say? -- 'slips.' While the dress did give the illusion of sheer-ness, the joke's on everyone who wishes they saw something!"
P.S., says Haenn, "If you thought that dress was hot wait until you see what's next."

Won't Be Broken to be next single
We're pleased to report that Keane's next single will be Won't Be Broken, the second new song to be taken from The Best Of Keane (after Higher Than The Sun). It's out on 20 January 2014. You can hear the track above. And here's the artwork:
Comments (22)
already posted a comment but I just love the song too much. I really hope it'll have a video!
Great ! The song and the artwork are full of hope : Keane won't be broken ! How come french radios don't broadcast it ?
Hopefully this will be a big hit for you. Would be nice and you deserve it!
Guys, you never disappoint me, love the song and the artwork!
Sorry, I forgot to write that I like the artwork very much!
I just read on Facebook that this single is BBC Radio 2's single of the week! Great! JoyceG
This is such a great song! It's so good to hear that it's going to be a single. Great choice!
I drift these days between shades of blue, deepest reds, and I try to grasp and reach for the brightest hues of yellow and always try to search for the purest of whites….and always.. always…with KEANE by my side…
I love this song!
ISA, from Brasil, Sao Paulo *** What a beautiful cover for a beautiful song! Loved it!
ISA, from Brasil, Sao Paulo *** I´ve spent all morning today listening to some cds of my dear band Keane. I have no been here much often because I was too busy dealing with a book that finally is now in some book shops on-line and it was written in 2008. But, just now I could publish it and the main character is called Thomas (Tomás, in Portuguese, that is our language here in Brasil, because we were once a Portugal colony). Anyway, it takes place in two different cities, a big one, São Paulo and a small village, Avermelhados (Redish), fruit of my imagination. The year is 1969 and everything is showed by the point of view of a young boy those days. Beatles, big solid cars, and a family that is falling apart. Drama and some sense of humour are mixed. I do hope Keane fans like it. Sorry the marketing, but it´s so hard to sell literature in this country! Keane fans can find it on Livraria Cultura and Livraria Saraiva, on-line. The name is A Paz do Meu AvÔ (The peace of my grand-father) and my name is Isa Fonseca. Thank you! Keane, we love you! XXXX I am very glad about the news! Thank you! Lots of love!
I love WBB!! What a beautiful song... I hope video isas good as the song ;) HUGE HUGS FROM CHILE =)
I never knew that about the language of flowers. I like it very much. I never even knew that you could get blue daises, I thought that they were always white.
Excelent!!! :) :) it is a lovely song :3
I adore Won't be Broken...it's brilliant, so powerful and uplifting, and so Keane! It turned out to be a very, very important song for me, it gives me so much strenght and hope ♥ The artwork is just beautiful and I guess it somehow matches the spirit of the song...a bright flower showing up from the cold mountains = it resisted all adversities and came out even stronger ;) You're amazing!!! xxxx
LOVE THE SONG! I think I like it even more than I like HTTS!
Congratulations dear Keane, this new song gives me so many good feelings and makes me dream, you have done a great job, I love it, it's so sweet and energetic at the same time fully reflects your style! Thanks for all the music that we give away, a hug from your fan Sabrina violinist from Catania! PS Also I really like the artwork, it is colorful and cheerful!
First of all, all my apologizes for my previous message. What a charming idea to illustrate the cover of your new cd with this blue daisy * Did you know that in the language of flowers it means ** I will stay faithful to you ! what a beautiful statement! to confess its feelings through flowers ** I'm sure some will find it silly, me I love it!! I think these new songs will have as much success as the others, they're all great !!!! ***LOTOF LOVE AND BIG KISSES TO ALL FROM FRANCE !!! je vous adoreeeeeeeeeee
What a lovely idea to have put a daisy to illustrate your cover of your new CD ;Did you know that in the language of flowers a blue daisy ** I mean you'd be faithful! what a lovely statement ** confess his feelings through the intermediary of romantic flowers is not it?? but I'm sure some will find it silly nowadays I love ** I think these new songs will know many others that follow one another *** and are geniales! even at the office I sing! *** LOT OF LOVE AND BIG KISSES TO ALL FROM FRANCE *** je vous adoreeeeeeeee

Full text not available from this repository.
This paper presents the development of a complete mobile fog chamber system, which encompasses the aspects of electronic instrumentation, video recording, fog generation system, high-voltage source, data acquisition system and monitoring instrument. The chamber has all the basic features to conduct type-tests on insulator of ceramic and non- ceramic type in an environment of artificially polluted condition. The design and construction of this chamber was simple, effective and efficient. The experience and insight gained in the present work is expected to benefit others. IVAT (Institute of High Voltage and Current) can be considered as resource centre of the subject.

16 Celebs Who Are 'A-OK' with PDA
Nowadays, it seems like there are a million different words synonymous with a kiss. If you're British, you might call a kiss, "a snog." There's also, a smooch, a peck, and the ever popular, swap of slobbery spit. Whether you're kissing, snogging, making out, or macking on, one thing's for sure… ain't nobody got time for bad breath! In the movies, a kiss–especially a first kiss– is a magical and memorable moment in time. But let's be real…. almost all first kisses are super slimy and awkward. It takes time to truly perfect the art of swapping spit.
That's why we've compiled a gallery of celebrity couples who seem to have their lip locking in sync. Check it out!

Yes you still need to support external commands. That was not at all what I'm proposing: I'm just after having the simple case dead simple to setup. Like you don't write any script. Regards, -- dim

I think it's still necessary in the case the connection between a slave and the master breaks. If the transient error is long enough for the slave requesting WALs that the master no longer has, restore_command will get used. IIUC from the mails here, the restore_command is run directly by the slave itself, so it needs to have access to master archives embedded in the restore_command. Take all this with a huge grain of salt, that's my understanding without having had the time to read the patch or play with it yet. Regards, -- dim PS: maybe the states and transitions and what data flows from where to where in each of those would be good at least in the documentation, if not explicit in the code?

2010 Mets Position Review: Ike Davis & First BaseOctober 19, 2010
Mets Links From Around The Net:
2 Responses to 2010 Mets Position Review: Ike Davis & First Base
Nice Kerel-
I must admit I was pleasantly surprised by the production of Ike Davis from the offensive end but what impressed me the most was his defensive play. His footwork around the bag and ability to pick errant throws out of the dirt was a very nice surprise. I can foresee a gold glove in his future. As far as his offensive it was nice to see the rookie battle out of his slump to finish the season strong as you noted.
Great job with the post and I am looking forward to viewing your reviews on the other positions.
I agree, his defense was better that I had heard it was. Thanks for the compliments on the post.

Three candidates in the Nov. 5 San Bernardino election are hoping they can define the role of the City Attorney's Office in the years to come. Only one will get that chance.
What's at stake? Among the issues:
•City's legal administration during the bankruptcy.
•Dealing with a traditionally fractious City Council.
•Approaches to defining the office's role: Some say the office now has more of a policymaking role. Does the city attorney move back from that to being more of an adviser?
Staff Writer Ryan Hagen put three questions to each of the candidates. Their responses are in the links on the left side of this page.
Things you should know:
Election Day: Nov. 5. If neither gets more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote getters will move on to a Feb. 4 run-off election,
Where to vote: Visit sbcounty.gov
San Bernardino's population: 213,296 (U.S. Census)
Coming days in The Sun:
•Watch for more on San Bernardino's race for City Council.
•There's much at stake there, too, at the individual city ward level.
SAN BERNARDINO >> Voters will be asked Nov. 5 whether they want to keep the city attorney who some see as central to the "toxic politics" they say have polluted City Hall since shortly after he took office 26 years ago and whom others see as an invaluable watchdog against corruption.
The question of whether to recall James F. Penman comes because 11,855 voters signed petitions asking for it, 267 valid signatures over the 15 percent threshold required by the city charter.
And it comes because of a concerted effort by a group led by San Bernardino resident and Rialto developer Scott Beard.
Whether individual voters choose to recall Penman or not, they will vote on the same ballot for who should replace him if more than 50 percent of voters say he should go.
The two recall candidates, Tim Prince and Gary Saenz, have traded some barbs but have said they have little against each other compared to their opposition to what they say is an "overly political" approach by Penman.
Ask Beard, Penman or any avid watcher of City Hall, and they'll detail a dozen incidents that can be interpreted either as plain evidence Penman should stay or as plain evidence Penman should go.
The latest came Thursday, when Councilmen Chas Kelley and Robert Jenkins were charged with unrelated felonies, and Kelley pleaded guilty to felony perjury and resigned.
The Riverside County District Attorney's Office charged Jenkins with 30 felony and misdemeanor counts for allegedly putting fraudulent solicitations of sex on the online classified website Craigslist, using not his own information but that of his ex-boyfriend.
Penman was quick to tell reporters that he had additional information that suggested the former partner had planted the information on Jenkins' computer. Penman also said it was important to remember Jenkins was presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
"The city attorney came out defending Robert Jenkins — what is that guy thinking?" Beard asked. "It's a joke. I agree that people are innocent until proven guilty, but how can he be city attorney when he's acting like Jenkins' attorney? He once again is blurring the ethical line — actually, what he did was wrong."
Responding to the same criticism by Mayor Pat Morris, Penman said earlier that it wasn't a defense, just a presentation of additional information.
"We're in a bankruptcy case, and the credibility of our elected officials is paramount," Penman said. "I would think the mayor, as a retired judicial official, would also want to (avoid) forming a premature opinion."
The same day, Penman pointed to Kelley's guilty plea and resignation, which came in response to an investigation by the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office alleging he had used campaign funds for noncampaign uses. That investigation began in October 2011, the time Penman said he handed over a broader investigation that involved allegations Kelley was "using funds that were not his to use for personal use."
"I'm always happy when a corrupt official is removed from office," Penman said. "This is the seventh one that my office has had to address in my 26 years, and all seven of them were at a minimum removed from office."
Penman, even before Morris' criticism, said he didn't want to take credit for the investigation but said it seemed likely to him that his investigation at least spurred the district attorney's.
Morris said Penman seemed to be taking credit for something he had nothing to do with.
"He spins it as if he were involved and talked to the DA," Morris said. "That seemed to me to be completely untrue, so I called the police chief and the police chief didn't know anything about it all. I called the DA and he said that's a bald-faced lie."
The affidavit in support of Kelley's arrest says senior investigator Schyler Beaty obtained personal and campaign committee records after "a complainant advised (Beaty) that Chas Allen Kelley ("KELLEY") may be involved in criminal activity along with other City of San Bernardino officials."
District Attorney Michael A. Ramos on Thursday declined to identify that complainant or say whether it was an elected official.
On the question of whether there is too much politics in the office and of why each candidate thinks they're best for the job, Penman, Prince and Saenz each answered three questions. See accompanying articles.
