I poked a pimple with a needle, causing the blood vessel directly under to become dilated. A dermatologist biopsied part of the skin, and shaved off the dilated part of the vessel. A dent developed where the blood vessel had been removed.
After 5 months, I decided to go back to see if it was healing okay. He told me lasers could get rid of the redness. Six months later, I still have a noticeable dent on my nose. What dermatological / surgical options do I have to correct, eliminate or lessen the noticeability of the indentation?

Over the holiday weekend we received an email from Kelly McWilliams at TicketNews.com. She asked us if we'd be willing to accept an interview for a piece TicketNews wanted to write about us... that's right folks, us! Needless to say we had mixed feelings; first was excitement that an industry leading publication took an interest in us, and then after pondering a little more we began wonder: "Did we do something bad?" We thought long and hard and decided that there was nothing we could think of that we did to draw negative press, so we went for it. I told Kelly that we'd love to do the profile piece, so she sent her questions to us.
Figuring out how to answer questions in a truthful, yet politically correct manner is difficult at times, especially in the uber-scrutinized secondary ticketing industry. But we did our best to portray who we are and what we're all about in the responses. The result:
"TicketProxy.com is bringing a new sales model into the secondary ticketing space. The new ticket brokerage is aiming to prove that the service fee, long a staple for secondary ticketers, is not a necessary part of doing business."
"At the TicketProxy site, fans can peruse ticket listing for theater, concert, and sporting events throughout the U.S. and Canada. A blog written by the company's co-founders aims to enhance the customer service product that fans receive when they purchase tickets: "[It] gives consumers tips on how to get tickets from the box office before they sell out; lets readers know about upcoming box office onsales; and even gives consumers tips on how to get tickets on the secondary market for less than face value," says Evans."
You can read the entire article on the TicketNews website <---- Click here
In short, thank you to Kelly McWilliams and TicketNews for a great profile of our company. We're absolutely thrilled that an interest was taken in us and that they've provided us with such great press.

Shares of Amag Pharmaceuticals (AMAG) plunged after regulators declined to approve wider marketing for its Feraheme drug. AMAG stock sank more than 16% in Wednesday premarket trading.
Feraheme has been approved to treat iron deficiency in adult chronic kidney disease patients, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has refused to clear the drug for use among patients suffering from adult iron deficiency anemia (IDA). The agency also told AMAG to provide more data regarding the drug's health risks. Feraheme has also been approved for sale in Europe, Reuters notes.
Three deaths occurred during one late-stage clinical trials of Feraheme. While none of the deaths were linked to the drug, the FDA told AMAG to provide more data on a larger patient groups.
AMAG stock has rise more than 35% over the past twelve months. AMAG stock closed at $21.86 on Tuesday.

Zdeno Chara isnt heading to his home country, but hell be close enough. The 6-foot-9 defenseman and the most important player on the Bruins roster has signed a deal with HC Lev Prague of the KHL, and will be in the Czech Republic to begin playing games by this weekend.
The deal was confirmed to CSNNE.com by Charas agent, Matt Keator.
Chara's move ends a quick flurry of decision-making in light of the fact that it appears the NHL wont be ending their lockout anytime soon. In fact, the word that Chara is headed to the Czech Republic can only be seen as a sign that the NHL players feel this current work stoppage will be long-term, not short-term.
Keator originally said that the Bs captain and former Norris Trophy winner was mulling several different options, and it was widely speculated Chara might end up skating with Bratislava in his home country. That choice would have given him a chance to reunite with former Bruins teammate Miroslav Satan in his homeland, but instead Chara selected a different option. Chara went with a league in the KHL that has a vested interest in challenging the NHL for hockey supremacy a league that will now have televised games on ESPN3 and is also paying players up to 65 percent of the salaries guaranteed to them in the NHL.
Chara will be playing with fellow NHL players Jiri Hudler and Jakub Voracek on the Prague Lions team, and will also join countrymen and good friend Marcel Hossa on the Lions. Chara last played for Team Slovakia in April during the World Championships after the Bruins were eliminated from the playoffs by the Washington Capitals. Chara had four points in 10 tournament games.
Interestingly, Chara skated for Farjestads BK Karlstad of the Swedish Elite League during the 2004-05 NHL lockout, and told reporters he had a positive experience there when asked about it last month. Like all other Bruins players, Chara will have an out clause that will allow him to return to Boston once the NHL lockout has ended.

In Fetco's first foray into "Brewing Sessions" podcast, they explain the 6 basic elements that can affect coffee taste: brewing temperature, formula of water-to-coffee, contact time, grind particle size, turbulence and freshness after brewing.
Temperature: Matt Greg, a regional sales manager with Fetco, explains that coffee should be brewed at 195-200F – generally toward the low end for high altitudes, toward 200F for more moderate altitudes. If you brew at too high of a temperature, the water elements from the coffee that will cause a tinny, metallic taste. At too low a temperature, not enough flavors will be extracted from the coffee to achieve a good coffee taste.
Formula of Water-to-Coffee: The next most important step after finding the correct brewing temperature is deciding the right amount of your coffee to use when brewing. As a general rule, you want to use 3.25-4.25 oz. of coffee per 64 oz. of water. The key is to find a good balance for the particular coffee you are brewing – too little coffee and you will emphasize the low, smoky, bitter elements of the bean; too much coffee and you will highlight mostly citrus and acidic tones. The perfect formula will balance the flavors and give you a rich, balanced cup.
Contact Time: The contact time begins with the spray-over time and ends when the coffee exits the brew basket. An optimal contact time extracts a balance of flavors from the coffee, and it depends on size of batch and kind of coffee you are brewing.
Grind Particle Size: A larger particle takes longer to break down than a smaller particle, plus the water will pass through larger grinds faster without extracting as many flavors. With too small a grind, the water will pass through the entire ground too easily, and can pick up too many undesirable flavors. The larger the batch size you are brewing, the larger the grind size you want, otherwise, the water will extract too many flavors from the bean
Turbulence: The churning motion that occurs in the brew basket. The more churning, the more flavors absorbed by the water.
Freshness after Brewing: After about 20 minutes, coffee sitting on a burner will start to break down and affect flavor – the oils become more rancid and bitter. Thermal servers can alleviate this problem, but coffee can even continue to cook in a thermal server. If is best to keep coffee in a thermal server and use it within a couple of hours.
A great podcast – hopefully the first of many.

Ben Axelrod: You'd be hard pressed to find a player who impacted the most recent edition of The Game more than Carlos Hyde did. The Buckeyes' bruising back set a new Ohio State rivalry game record with 229 yards against Michigan, keeping constant pressure on the Wolverines defense. While the Buckeyes' passing game was inefficient, Hyde allowed the offense to keep rolling, which could have played a key role in Brady Hoke's decision to go for two points at the end of the game. Braxton Miller has legitimate competition for the Big Ten's Offensive Player of Year award, and it comes from inside of his own backfield.
Pat Brennan: The critical moments of games between Ohio State and Michigan — that's when legends are born, and that's where Braxton Miller was at his best against the Wolverines. In what might have been the draft-eligible junior quarterback's third and final game against Michigan, he accounted for five total touchdowns (three rushing, two passing). During the up-tempo first half, Miller electrified with scoring runs that kept Ohio State in the game. When the finish line was in sight later in the game, he hit Jeff Heuerman for a touchdown that put the Buckeyes up, 35-21. And when Michigan tied the game at 35 and threatened to end Ohio State's famous winning streak, he started the very next drive with a 32-yard run to aid a drive that ended with the Buckeyes taking the winning points. His 6 of 15 passing line was less than sparking, but Miller played a huge role in Ohio State's 24th consecutive win and second consecutive undefeated regular season.
Ryan Ginn: My Buckeye Leaf goes to game hero and redshirt freshman defensive back Tyvis Powell, with an assist to cornerbacks coach Kerry Coombs. When Ohio State called timeout with Michigan lined up to attempt the two-point conversion, Coombs outlined two plays the Wolverines had a propensity to run in that situation. Once Michigan lined up, Powell recognized exactly what Michigan planned to do and snatched up quarterback Devin Gardner's pass to preserve the Buckeyes' 24-game win streak and national championship hopes. The secondary had a terrible game by all accounts, but ultimately one of its youngest members delivered the most important play of the game.
Matthew Hager: Carlos Hyde and Braxton Miller were wonderful. The defense was not. Still, my Buckeye Leaf goes to Tyvis Powell. You save a Michigan game, you get a Buckeye Leaf. Simple as that.
Marcus Hartman: He did not have his best day throwing the ball, but Braxton Miller made the plays that his team needed to beat Michigan and finish off another 12-0 regular season. Miller's 32-yard run got the final drive started before Carlos Hyde finished it off with another handful of punishing runs. Miller completed 6 of 15 passes for 133 yards and a pair of touchdowns, and both his throwing and his outside runs punished Michigan at key times when the Wolverines were preoccupied with the Ohio State inside running game. It wasn't pretty, but Miller displayed the leadership his team needed when the offense had to have an answer in the fourth quarter.
Jeff Svoboda: So many players come to mind, including Tyvis Powell for the stunning, game-saving interception he came up with, but I'm going to go with Carlos Hyde. When Ohio State needed a game-winning touchdown drive in the last five minutes, it went with the big senior, who polished off the last 16 yards including a no-doubt plunge up the gut for the score. It was a fitting end to a 226-yard day that set a school record for rushing yards vs. Michigan. Whenever OSU got into trouble in this game -- heck, this year -- Hyde was the one to get the Buckeyes out of it.

Satellite broadcaster BSkyB has dropped 10.75p to 472p on concerns about how much the company will have to spend to maintain its market share in an increasingly competitive television environment.
Analysts at HSBC cut their target price from 540p to 425p and put an underweight rating on the business. In a note entitled Leadership at a cost, they said:
"BSkyB is responding to the changing industry structure, but its capital-light business model requires incremental costs to defend its traditional pay-TV business. 2009 is likely to be challenging; revenue growth [will] slow and margins [will] face pressure."
Overall the market had another volatile day as continuing concerns about the global downturn vied with the Federal Reserve's reduction in US interest rates to their lowest ever level of 0.25%. Poor figures from BNP Paribas - partly due to its exposure to New York financier Bernard Madoff's alleged $50bn fraud - and higher than expected quarterly losses from Morgan Stanley reminded investors that the scars of the credit crunch are nowhere near being healed. But despite Wall Street falling by around 120 points by the time London closed, the FTSE 100 staged a last minute recovery and ended 15.11 points higher at 4324.19.
Miners moved higher after the US rate cut, with Lonmin up 46p to 728.5p and BHP Billiton 65p better at £12.98. Anglo American added 85p to £16.50 even though it announced a halving of capital expenditure next year to $4.5bn. Rio Tinto rose 57p to £15.58 despite the company deciding not to invest in a $20bn Saudi project.
UK banks were among the major losers, with HSBC down 43p at 672p on continuing cash call worries. Lloyds TSB lost 2.8p to 125.2p as analysts at Deutsche Bank reduced their recommendation from hold to sell and their target price from 180p to 110p, ahead of the completion of the takeover of HBOS, down 4.1p at 67.8p.
Oil companies moved ahead as Opec announced it would cut production by 2.2m barrels a day to add to a previously agreed 2m reduction. BP was 11.75p better at 535.5p while Royal Dutch Shell B shares rose 38p to £17.39, despite the crude price slipping as traders said the cut would not be enough to make up for falling global demand.
But oil services group John Wood slipped 1.2p to 198.8p after it warned in a trading update that 2009 would be a challenging year. Analysts at RBS said:
"Overall, there is a change in tone to the statement in terms of outlook which the company describes as uncertain and challenging. Wood now sees lower client spending and this will impact service company activity and Wood's performance."
Wood's caution also hit Amec, the consultancy and engineering group which specialises in the energy industry. Amec fell 2.5p to 518.5p, additionally unsettled by a downgrade by UBS. The bank said:
"We believe that there is pressure [on Amec] to make acquisitions in the first half of 2009 to meet the 2010 margin target, and we remain concerned on risks to earnings."
Among the retailers, Mike Ashley's Sports Direct International climbed 2.75p to 38.5p after reporting better than expected half year results. Marks & Spencer recovered from earlier falls to close unchanged at 227.5p. But Nick Bubb at Pali International repeated his sell rating, saying trading during the last two weeks was believed to be poor, and another one day 20% off sale might be necessary.
Private equity group 3i recovered 14.5p to 257.5p after two days of severe falls. The company announced it was closing its offices in Hong Kong and Shanghai and moving its China dealmakers to Beijing to cut costs.
But insurer Admiral lost 28p to 855p as UBS became the latest to downgrade the business. UBS said:
"We are downgrading Admiral from buy to neutral given the strong relative performance (up 30% versus the FTSE All share). We continue to view the business as defensive, although valuation at these levels feels full, especially given the market de-rating. If there is market wide shift out of the more defensive names during 2009, the stock's rating is likely to suffer."
Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey rose 0.7p to 10.5p as chief executive Peter Redfern reportedly wrote to staff suggesting the company's debt negotiations could be concluded by February. Rival Barratt Developments climbed 4.25p to 66.5p as it sold another £46m of industrial land and buildings from its Wilson Bowden Developments business.
Rentokil Initial, the ratcatcher, parcels and tropical plant hire group which last month reported a 72% fall in third quarter profits, rose 1.5p to 40p after a positive note from Merrill Lynch. After a meeting on Tuesday night with the company's chief executive Alan Brown, Merrill said:
"This remains a slow burn restructuring, where cost reduction and service improvements in parcels should drive some recovery in earnings per share in 2009, and there is longer term potential to improve returns, which are around 50% below potential. We think that the shares could more than double from here.
"Management appeared very relaxed on the balance sheet - 'no contemplation of a rights issue ... debt to fall from here.' The indication of £200m capital expenditure for 2009 suggests that there is no pressure to take further aggressive action to improve cash flow. We believe that the risk of breach (of a generous covenant is very low)."
Dairy Crest, the maker of Cathedral cheddar and Yoplait yoghurt, slipped 3.25p to 189.75p even though it made a couple of moves to improve its finances. It has bought a £150m annuity from Legal & General to insure part of its pensions liability, and it has also changed €200m of debt into sterling, to reduce the effect of future currency movements.
Finally pubs and brewing group Marstons lost 13.25p to 118.5p as Merrill Lynch cut its price target from 240p to 140p to reflect a more cautious outlook for 2009.

Ashley Greene Goes Goth For 'Elle' (PHOTOS)
We've seen Ashley Greene as a vampire but we've never seen her like this.
The Twilight decided to break out of her normally cute look to go much darker and much more high-fashion for a goth-isnpired spread in Elle magazine.
Dressing up in velvet frocks, leather suits, and black lace ball gowns, Ashley looked much older than her 23 years. But then again, maybe Ashley is trying to change her image: In the interview she says she doesn't was Twilight to "define" her.
Looking at the gorgeous spread we see a resemblance to co-star Kristen Stewart or maybe even punk legend Patti Smith. What do you think?

> Cheers,
If I recall, this WAS a problem with some non-GNU make programs, and had
to do with whether they interpret include statements relative to the
directory under which make is running, or relative to the directory under
which the current Makefile is found.
Makefile.config has the statement "include $(top_builddir)/CONFIG" in it,
but when it is included by the Makefile in a subdirectory, top_builddir
is set to "..", which is OK for GNU make. It interprets the .. relative
to the subdirectory in which it's running, so it goes up to the main
source directory to find CONFIG. DEC Unix's make sees the ../CONFIG in
the main source directory's Makefile.config, and so it goes one more level
up to look for CONFIG.
There are a few solutions:
1) Use GNU make.
2) Edit Makefile.config, to simply say "include CONFIG" without the reference
to top_builddir.
3) Copy the CONFIG file to one directory level up.
This shouldn't be a problem in 3.2, which gets rid of CONFIG.

I'm quite relaxed and easy going, friendly with people from all walks of life, a tidy and neat-conscious person, well aware of other people's space, and most of all I love an adventure. I'm a bit of a sports nerd, love being active in social sport teams (anything from footy, to basketball to lacrosse to tennis or cycling). I also take a lot of photos (not the selfie kind) as that's my other passion outside of work. I'm also big on going to gigs across a lot of different genres, especially punk. I also love all animals so if you have a pet, then that's a bonus! I have a lot of existing items already including my own bed, couch, TV, kitchen items, etc. So I'm pretty self sufficient in terms of furnishings. Having said that, if there's a furnished house or flat that's always a bonus. I often like to come and go when I need to as I'm a fairly social person outside my four wall. I am the kind of person that likes to bring a friend over to watch TV, so I like to be social with people and respectful of others in our shared spaces. My budget is about a maximum of $200 per week, but could be flexible if rent included internet, foxtel, gas, electricity, water, etc were added in. I'm originally from Albury, then Hobart, now Melbourne, so I've gotten used to moving recently, but really just hoping to settle in Ballarat at the right place! Ideally, I'm hopeful of living with 1-2 people, young professionals around my age (flexible wit that) that have had experience in sharehouses before. If you think I'm the right for your place, I'd love to know more about you, and the surroundings, and any pictures you have of potential rooms and shared spaces. I can provide professional and housemate references where required. Thank you.
My name is Ravikiran! I am a sportsperson. I have a very good routine, waking up early, working out , I like to keep my place clean and expect others around me to do the same! Thanks

Comments about Beck/Arnley Thermo Fan Switch:
My out of town College student son has had an small overheating for quite some time.
Trouble Isolation -
On his last visit we were able to prove his relay good by swapping his A/C fan relay & his cooling fan relay. By turning on the A/C inside the car it forces the fan to turn on. Next, we were able to use a paper clip in the plug of this sensor to close the circuit to energize the fan. It worked and isolated the trouble to his bad fan temperature switch.
Prep & replacement -
We opened the petcock at the bottom of his radiator to capture his coolant into an empty water gallon jug, enabling us to recycle it back into his system after the repair. We replaced the switch (sensor) and refilled his radiator with only about half of what we captured. Started the car with the radiator cap off. Keeping an eye on the coolant, once the thermostat opened it would begin bubbling which was purging any of the air trapped in the coolant system, slowly we would add more of the original coolant. We waited until the thermostat cycled twice more, still slowly adding more coolant until we felt comfortable that all air was purged. Which was no coincidence that the coolant we recycled back into system was gone.
Job Done>>Good Luck

Vermont's 7,500 independent home health care workers chose AFSCME Vermont Homecare United to represent them in collective bargaining in an election process that concluded Thursday.
An unofficial ballot count shows 1,412 workers (71.4 percent) voted to have AFSCME Vermont Homecare United as their union representative and 566 said no, according to Tim Noonan, executive director of the Vermont Labor Relations Board, which conducted the election. There were 23 spoiled ballots, Noonan said.
Noonan said the vote is not official until a 10-day period for objections has passed.
The union vote followed the passage of Act 148 in the last legislative session, which gave independent home care workers the right to organize to seek better benefits and working conditions. The workers, who provide in-home care to the elderly and people with disabilities, are paid with state Medicaid funds but are employed by their clients.
AFSCME and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) worked together to support the law and then battled to determine which organization would be chosen to represent the workers.
SEIU withdrew from the process in late July, citing a desire to avoid a showdown with AFSCME and admitting it might not have the votes to win.
AFSCME Vermont Homecare United will now form a bargaining committee and begin work on its demands for contract negotiations with the Shumlin administration, AFSCME spokeswoman Carolyn Klinglesmith said.
"We are sending out nomination forms immediately and expect to elect a team by mid-October," Klinglesmith said.
She said the union is conducting a survey to determine which bargaining issues are most important to its members. She said during the election that members concerns included earning a livable wage, finding affordable health care and improving funding for programs that provide home care services.
Gov. Peter Shumlin congratulated AFSCME at a news conference Thursday and said he looks forward to talks over benefits for home care workers.
"These are folks who have been underpaid and do very tough work and actually improve the delivery of health care in Vermont," Shumlin said. "I think this organization is long overdue, and I think they will be well-served."
A similar proposal that would enable small, independent daycare providers to negotiate with the state has repeatedly failed to pass in the Legislature.
In a statement from Vermont Early Educators United, Kay Curtis who runs Happy Hands Daycare – Little People in Brattleboro said: "We congratulate homecare workers on voting overwhelmingly to form a union today. As a childcare provider, I hope that the legislature will respect our work as well and afford early educators this same right to organize. We know that when providers are organized, providers and the families they serve benefit greatly."

Ask a Neurologist. Get Answers to Your Neurology Questions.
The medication they inject is placed accurately, at the level of the facet joint, to target the "medial branch" of the nerve -- and theoretically the nerve at the joint itself.
They do this by using fluoroscopic guidance (essentially xrays) in the procedure room to ensure the needle is where it is supposed to be before injecting the medication.
The neck muscles ideally will feel better after the procedure, as the nerve irritation is improved as well.
Injections directly into the muscles themselves are generally called "trigger point" injections, and do not require xray guidance.
As both the deep dorsal spinal muscles and the facet joints are innervated by the medial branch of the dorsal rami, and the facet joints are innervated by more than one level of spinal nerve, how can you be sure that pain is coming from the joint? Derek
Good questions.
You can't be certain in any case, because, as you mention, there is multiple innervation of the joints as well as the muscles.
However, in most cases, it is felt that the nerve irritations in degenerative spinal conditions is coming from the pathologic joint (which may have degenerative arthritis, or instability), and thus putting the medication in this area is thought to be fairly diagnostic.
There is no MRI or CT or injection that can definitively tell with 100% certainty where pain is coming from, and that is something I stress to every patient. However, blocking the nerves at the facet joint can help to determine if that is a likely source of the pain.
Thank you for your answer. The reason for my question is that facet joint injection is considered the 'gold standard' for diagnosis of cervicogenic headache (you may not agree with this nomenclature). Literature focuses heavily on the degenerative joint being the primary source of nociception in this case. However manual techniques such as manipulation, massage, trigger point therapy all have evidence that they reduce or eliminate headache when applied in the suboccipital area. None of these therapies is likely to have changes on the degenerative articular surfaces or periarticular tissues. Perhaps then the facet joint injection is blocking all input from the medial branches and reducing the input into centrally sensitised system?
Yes, those techniques are designed to help with symptomatic relief --e.g. the muscles -- causing the pain.
However, if they feel that nerve irritation at the facet is causing the mucles to spasm, then it would make sense that you should feel some pain relief with an injection in that area, and people often do have a significant amount of relief (usually temporary) with a facet injection. But that is helpful information for your doctors regardless. The goal of the injection, as you mention, is to try and block the input and thus, make you feel better due to the pain being "blocked".

Shaler woman pens children's book; some sales to help keep kids warm
Leigh Ann Hrutkay wrote her first children's book hoping to warm the hearts of the children and caretakers who read it and the bodies of children in need.
Her book, "Rise and Shine, Little Child," explores the joy and magic of the main character, "Little Child," discovering the first winter snowfall.
Hrutkay, 32, of Shaler, partnered with Operation Warm, which provides new winter coats to children in need throughout the country and will donate a portion of the proceeds from book sales to the nonprofit organization.
"Anybody who knows me knows I can't do anything unless it is benefiting somebody else," Hrutkay said. "People also feel really good when they are in a position to go one step further to buy a product that benefits somebody else."
Hrutkay said she worked to find an organization that matched the theme of the book while also benefiting children.
Carey Palmquist, executive director of Operation Warm, said she was surprised and excited by Hrutkay's desire to partner with the organization.
The nonprofit organization is located in a suburb of Philadelphia and provides new winter coats to children in need. Since 1998, when the organization was started, it has distributed 1.4 million coats to children in 42 states through close to 1,000 schools, churches and homeless shelters across the country.
"The book itself is so perfect for our organization," Palmquist said. "So much of the problem we're dealing with is (the children) can't get to school because they don't have coats in wintertime … The book is fantastic and (shows) the joy kids receive when they can put on a coat and go out in the snow."
Hrutkay was inspired to write the story last winter after checking on her son, Xander, now 2 years old, one night, and she noticed the first snowflakes begin to fall outside her window.
"I don't like the snow … but I realized this is the first year he's going to experience snow, and I can't wait to share that with him," Hrutkay said. "When I saw the snow I started to see it through his baby eyes."
Hrutkay drew on her educational background — a bachelor's degree in early-childhood education and a master's degree in developmental psychology — and her experience as a professional nanny and mother to create the 24-page story with a playful rhyming pattern best suited for children ages 2 to 5.
She also worked with an illustrator to give "Little Child" a more boyish look on some pages and more of a girlish look on others so children of any gender could relate to the main character. The adult caregiver in the story also never is identified as "mother."
"It's really versatile," Hrutkay said. "I wanted a fun wintertime story … for all kids to enjoy."
The book is available through the Tate Publishing and Enterprises LLC website — www.tatepublishing.com — and will be available wherever books are sold after the beginning of 2014. However, Hrutkay hopes more people will order through the publisher, which will allow her to donate a larger percentage of the proceeds to Operation Warm.
"I hope it inspires a love of reading, I also hope it inspires them to want to do more outdoor play," Hrutkay said of her book. "I also want (the children being read to) to feel important, valued and unconditionally loved, and I hope this book conveys that as they are read to.
"There are no bounds to the potential of a child who has been well loved. And by well loved, I mean hugged tightly, kissed sweetly and read to often."

Right now max_locks_per_transactions defines the average number of locks taken by a transaction. thus, shared memory is limited to max_locks_per_transaction * (max_connections + max_prepared_transactions). this is basically perfect. however, recently we have seen a couple of people having trouble with this. partitioned tables are becoming more and more popular so it is very likely that a single transaction can eat up a great deal of shared memory. some people having a lot of data create daily tables. if done for 3 years we already lost 1000 locks per inheritance-structure. i wonder if it would make sense to split max_locks_per_transaction into two variables: max_locks (global size) and max_transaction_locks (local size). if set properly this would prevent "good" short running transactions from running out of shared memory when some "evil" long running transactions start to suck up shared memory. if people find this useful we would glady implement this new feature for 8.3. many thanks, hans -- Cybertec Geschwinde & Schönig GmbH Schöngrabern 134; A-2020 Hollabrunn Tel: +43/1/205 10 35 / 340 www.postgresql.at, www.cybertec.at

So, first we had the "Xavier brother calling a timeout" game against Marquette, then we had the "Greedy Peterson has dangerous elbows" game against Marquette, and now we have "oh shit oh shit oh shit there's a bat in the building" game against Marquette. Wanna take a guess what all references will be related to in today's recap?
Well, I can't top this, so let's get this party started after the jump.
Bat on Boards: Marquette is, put simply, a team built on a backcourt. They play a three guard lineup and have relied on those guards in the past to be successful. And hey, they've gone to the Sweet 16 for two years in a row now, so who's to say it doesn't work? In years past Providence fans have actually argued that this model would be better suited for the Friars due to our lack of true big men. But we have those big men so that model isn't needed anymore, and besides one of the problems of having more backcourt-focused styles of play is you can tend to be outrebounded.
…At least, that's the perception. Turns out that's not always true. Hell, look at the box score and see how the Friars got absolutely murdered on the boards. It's crazy, right?
At the half the Friars were outrebounded 23 to 14. By the end of the game the Golden Eagles had grabbed 35 boards to Providence's 27. Here's the breakdown for Providence big men:
- Kadeem Batts: 3 rebounds
- LaDontae Henton: 5 rebounds
- Sidiki Johnson: 6 rebounds
- Lee Goldsbrough: 0 rebounds
Not great, right? Not great at all. But, by comparison, the Marquette big men didn't do that much better. Actually, it wasn't even the big men that made the rebounding impact for Marquette, but the backcourt.Trent Lockett has as many rebounds (6) as Sidiki Johnson. Vander Blue and Junior Cadougan both outrebounded or came even with Kadeem Batts. Look, there are a lot of reasons why a game is lost, but being killed on the boards by a team that doesn't play to size is a good way to start.
Paint Party: Of course, the knee jerk reaction is to say "well Marquette must've shot a lot of long range shots because their backcourt got so many rebounds" and that might be part of it, but consider this too: Providence was outscored by Marquette in the paint 44-24. That's right. 44. Marquette dropped 44 in the paint against Providence.
Not. Very. Good.
Offensively we actually have some very talented frontcourt players. Kadeem Batts has come along way, Sidiki Johnson is growing, and LaDontae Henton has the talent needed to succeed (where it is now is another story). However, defensively we have a long road ahead of us with our current frontcourt players. We're just too slow on the switches, too lazy in the post, and too ineffective to make a difference. This Marquette team is different than in years past, their frontcourt is much more talented and is deserving of the recognition it gets, but that's not an excuse. We've played frontcourt-focused teams much better than this and, quite frankly, it's inexcusable at this point because the Friars can do better than this.
Bryce Cotton goes…Cold? Cold? Hot? What do you say when Ice isn't shooting great? Yes, he finished with a team high of 19, but it took him forever to get in the game and he only had seven points at the half. He didn't even attempt to shoot the ball until almost halfway through the first half. When your team is limited offensively, but you have the leading Big East scorer on your roster, you tend to want him to shoot.
Not to say Cotton didn't do what he was supposed to do. He did help get the team within striking distance in the second half, but unfortunately the rest of the team couldn't capitalize. Bryce, overall, shot 5-9, which isn't bad, but why'd he take so few shots? I guess you could argue that the defense just had answers for him, but I don't buy that because Cotton has been better at getting contested shots off and breaking through the defense.
This game, in recap, is feeling more and more unexplainable, and I can't justify a lot of these things because, frankly, it doesn't feel like it's our team I'm focusing on. Marquette is a phenomenal team and I'm extremely happy they're going to be in the new conference with us because they give such a great identity to the conference, but I can't be sold on the idea that it was simply Marquette completely destroying the Friar identity out there.
Player of the Game: It was the bat. He was awesome. Oh, and Ted Bancroft. He really does deserve it. He's playing more minutes than some of our scholarship players, playing tougher than some of them, and being more effective than some of them. He deserves a scholarship in my opinion. I, for one, am extremely happy for him and am glad to have him in a Friar uniform.
Asshole of the Game: Technically not in the game, but whoever was doing the radio commentary on ESPN Marquette radio (or whatever it was called) should be suspended. Going back to Ted Bancroft being harder at one point Ted took a charge towards the end of the first that allowed Providence to get the ball back. What's this asshole (wish I got his name) have to say? "You know why Ted Bancroft got that charge? Cause he's white." And then, after a pause, "I can say that because I'm white." Not cool dude, not cool.

"Spare the Fare" Press Conference Announces Sept. 8th Protest in Powell Street BART Station: video & photos
After four #OpBART demonstrations organized by Anonymous were held on consecutive Mondays that targeted Civic Center BART and other downtown stations, the No Justice No BART campaign has called for its first protest against BART police violence since July 11th. This time, the No Justice No BART campaign will take on the transit agency with a "Spare the Fare" protest in Powell Street BART station on September 8th. The idea for the protest is to pack enough demonstrators inside of the station, outside of the fare gates, that in order to keep people moving and the system running BART will open the emergency exits and fare gates to allow passengers entry without paying. "No $ for police brutality and murder: Disband the BART police," reads a flier announcing the action. BART has in the past foregone fares and funneled passengers past demonstrators. If BART chooses to close the station rather than "spare the fare" for just one afternoon, the contingency plan is for demonstrators to march to other stations and attempt to protest on the station platforms as they have before. In the September 5th press conference video below, speakers representing No Justice No BART, ONYX Organizing Committee, and Feminists Against Cops address police violence and the upcoming action.

She mentions the constant police harassment faced by the friends of Oscar Grant who were also detained by BART police on January 1st, 2009. As Hayward residents, it has primarily been Hayward police who continually harass and threaten Oscar Grant's friends. Johntue Caldwell was murdered by an unknown assailant. BART, too, has attacked Oscar Grant's friends as they pursue a civil suit for the the illegal treatment they received from BART police. The community has pushed back and intends to do so more.

By Donna Leinwand, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON Three high-ranking U.S. Army Reserve officers were charged Wednesday with steering more than $8.6 million in Iraqi reconstruction contracts to a U.S. businessman in exchange for cash, luxury cars, liquor and other payoffs.
Col. Curtis Whiteford of Riverton, Utah, Lt. Col. Debra Harrison of Trenton, N.J., and Lt. Col. Michael Wheeler of Amherst Junction, Wis., allegedly rigged the bids for more than 27 projects for businessman Philip Bloom, according to a 25-count indictment unsealed in U.S. District Court in Trenton.
In return, the officers received luxury cars, including a $50,000 Cadillac Escalade SUV, Breitling watches worth $3,200 each, business-class airline tickets and other goods, the indictment said.
Harrison's husband, William Driver, also was charged with four counts of money laundering for allegedly helping to smuggle some of the stolen money into the USA and using it to build a deck and a hot tub at their New Jersey home.
Some of the alleged bribes are detailed in e-mails. One Defense Department civilian employee allegedly involved in the operation told Bloom in an e-mail that he had won a contract for construction at an Iraqi police academy, the indictment said. "I will give you 200K some time tomorrow! I love to give you money," the e-mail said.
The officers allegedly kept the contracts under the $500,000 threshold that would have required approval by a board in Baghdad, the indictment said.
Bloom, who lived and ran his businesses in Romania, pleaded guilty April 18 to conspiracy, bribery and money laundering. Bloom admitted paying more than $2 million to the Army officers and Pentagon contractor Robert Stein of North Carolina in return for being funneled the reconstruction contracts, according to the Justice Department. Stein, who pleaded guilty to similar charges in February, was sentenced Jan. 29 to nine years in prison.
Also charged was Seymour Morris, a U.S. citizen living in Romania. He is accused of laundering the stolen government money through accounts in Cyprus and then wiring the cash to the USA to buy some of the items used to bribe the officers.
More indictments are expected as the investigation continues into contract corruption in Iraq, said Stuart Bowen, special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction. Bowen said he began the investigation in 2004 when a whistle-blower tipped him to irregularities at the U.S.-led occupation's office in Hillah.
"We are rooting out fraud, waste and abuse where we find it," Bowen said. "Where we have found it, it has been egregious."
The indictment was unsealed one day after Paul Bremer, the former head of the U.S.-led occupation in Iraq, strongly denied accusations by auditors and House Democrats that his team was too lax with the billions of dollars it gave to Iraqi government ministries during his tenure in 2003-04.

Patheos is a diverse place. I tend to think of it like a city with different quarters. There are good neighborhoods and bad neighborhoods, which shift depending on your point of view.

Wyrd Designs – King Radbod and the Importance of the Ancestors
This week on August 9th many Heathens who are members of the Asatru Alliance, or who opt to use their calendar, set aside time to celebrate the life and memory of the Frisian King Radbod (680-719 CE), who is a hero to many living Heathens and Pagans today. Christian missionaries came close to baptizing King [Read More…]

13 Things I Like About Protestant Christians
Yeah, you read right. Patheos is an interfaith site and I think it's important to create a dialogue with other faith traditions.

Pump In Style Original Breast Pump
If you plan to breastfeed for more than about six weeks, I highly recommend investing in a Madela pump. I have quite a few friends who purchased a (less expensive) hand pump and ultimately ended up with this electric pump. I used my pump at home and at work which were places I thought I'd use it, but I also used it in places I never would have anticipated such as weddings, vacation and off-site meetings. Pumping is not glamorous, but if you are going to do it, pump in style!

Wonderful counselors at PDAP, I recommend Ms.Lorene personally. Not only was I inspired I overcame obstacles by choice with guidance. If your looking for change this is the PLACE, just remember change STARTS from within.
It is a good place to come and to vent to counselors. I am very comfortable with them, and they encourage you. PDAP has also helped me to realize that there is more to life than to drink and do drugs. We can come together like a family, I enjoy coming here.
I feel when I am going to fall, I come to PDAP and I leave here with high spirits and I don't make bad choices when I leave. The counselors are always willing to stop whatever they are doing and help. We are all one step from falling. We need to be around positive people, and we get that here.
I have been sober since the 29th of July 2013, and I have my 10 year old and my 7 year old back, and my husband and I are enjoying being parents – Thanks to Palmer Drug Abuse Program!

Review from Guidestar
It is my pleasure and honor to support the Palmer program.
I have witnessed these people continually go above and beyond the call of duty.
In this day and age of so many good non profits it can be difficult to decide which to invest in. I have never doubt that the value of my dollars have become priceless when given to them. They take my money and transform it into a new way of life for a family and a future!
I had buried myself in an excessive amount of trouble due to my 10-year-long addiction to pain medication. I knew if I hadn't voluntarily attended a drug abuse rehabilitation program, my life would have taken a turn for the worst. Upon arriving to my first education class at PDAP, I was greeted with open arms. The staff is very personable and they actually empathize with their clients as opposed to sympathizing with them. They implement the aphorism "it works if you work it" and demonstrate how to work the program thoroughly. I came to this program with a great attitude and the staff teaches you how to maintain that energy you need to become a stronger and better individual. I am honestly blessed to have found Palmer Drug Abuse Program, I was just a stranger to everyone and they made me feel like I was their own family member, as they do with all individuals that are seeking help and change. I confide in this program so much that I am pursuing a position as either an employee or volunteer for group sessions. I strongly recommend this program to anyone who is searching for a life changing experience or even if it is mandated by the court, I can assure you that you are in GREAT hands.
My name is sunshine and i am blesed to be a part of pdap. i recently got out of state jail and went to my first meetimng that tuesday . pdap opened their arms and without any questions took me in as family. the cousolors are very concerned about each individuals needs and sobriety. I must say this group is the best I've ever been a part of. i have also seen the passion they have for our youth. i pray to be a part of this one day. it is all about sharing our expeience , strength and hope. Pdap is my family. when ever in need of just love and maybe a hug or even the truth these are the people to go to.
I have been a Client,volunteer,and employed. My first encounter was a shock never had so many people love and accept me for ME. That's what I found at every PDAP I have been at. I was at my bottom in 1987 and they saved my life. Wish I could say I have been sober this whole time I have fallen a few time but by God's grace and my family in the program I have gotten back up and started living again.That's what I have done in the program I learned to live.they helped me see i am important My children were raised in the program and don't always make decisions like I would like them to again PDAP has helped me let go I Love my PDAP family Thanks for being there when everyone had given up on me because PDAP never will
I came to Pdap sent By Cps and I fell in love with the program!! it became more of a program to me it became my family and it taught me about God. It helped me further my skills and gave me the tools and knowledge I needed to further my relationship with God. Now I am attending a missionary school! Pdap rocks and I will recommend it to anyone who asks about it. The staff there are great and they are an awesome family to have. Because Pdap i was able to get that foundation I needed and God has taken me so far since then!! Thank you!
Review from Guidestar
As a consultant to the Bexar County Juvenile Probation Department, I've assisted with the development and evaluation of substance abuse services throughout their system of care. In this capacity, I have been able to experience PDAP working with the department in a positive, collaborative, and meaningful manner. PDAP staff members have demonstrated a commitment to working with the recovery of young people, establishing and maintaining relationships that are professional, caring, and authentic. The organization is unique in their recovery emphasis on young people...there are no other support, education, and treatment programs in our area that come close to providing the long-term recovery support that PDAP provides and that is required for sustained change. It is clear that PDAP has been a tremendous help to those adolescents and families afflicted with addiction who have participated in care. Thank you PDAP for your contributions to our community.
Review from Guidestar
My son's addiction brought me into PDAP. PDAP has saved my son's life, twice. PDAP invited me and my sick family system in for help. I was on Family Death Watch. That is no longer true. PDAP has gently healed my failures and shame. My counselor and sponsor listen to my fears and hurts and provide me comfort, perspective and wisdom. That has included my "panic" phone calls to them when I was alone at day-time or night-time. They have helped me through the Twelve Steps, with endless love and patience. I have gone through many terrible fires of hurt - and the grace of transformation. PDAP continues to hold me in their loving embrace even with all my warts and weaknesses. They really know who I am, and its okay. The Twelve Steps really work, even in spite of my best efforts. My life has changed in ways I thought impossible and hopeless. I still have a ways to go. I'm amazed that I'm a sponsor now (the 12th Step). That was another brave and healthy surrender to my Higher Power, and it's been good for me. Thank you for reading my story.
I am a counselor that works with teens and adults affected by substance abuse and chemical dependency. I appreciate the PDAP community for servicing my clients, at no cost, by providing families the support, encouragement, and hope of healing from the devastation of addiction. PDAP helps my clients move beyond the shame and isolation of being affected by addiction into a "new" family of passionate and serving individuals that are willing to understand and embrace the family's journey into recovery.

Effort Launched To Require Photo IDs To Vote
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSPD) -- Supporters of requiring voters in Ohio to show a photo ID are launching an effort to get state lawmakers to act.
The Ohio Christian Alliance is going forward with an initiated statute petition. It would give lawmakers four months to act on a the bill and if they don't would allow for it to possibly appear on the ballot in 2015.
"The numbers don't lie. There is an increase in voter fraud in the state of Ohio," said Ohio Christian Alliance president Chris Long.
Even with an increase, the number of cases make up a fraction of a percent of the total number of votes cast. Tom Zawistowski with the Portage County TEA Party says their goal is to protect all votes.
"It's all about defending the citizens, the common person who trusts the system and votes and expects their vote to count," he said.
The Ohio House passed a photo ID proposal during the last legislative session, but it never got a vote in the Ohio Senate. This year's bill is backed by Rep. John Becker, a Clermont County Republican. He believes there is support in the House, but doesn't think that support exists in the Senate.
"I'm hopeful that we can get this passed through the legislature, because that's the right way to do it, but if not I'm confident - not just hopeful - I'm confident that we can do it through the ballot," said Zawistowski.
Long claims that 70 percent of Americans and Ohioans support mandating that voters show a photo ID.
Opponents of the proposal claim that it would disproportionally impact minority and low-income voters.

New Delhi (AFP) Feb 13, 2013
India threatened Wednesday to cancel a deal to purchase 12 helicopters from the Italian firm Finmeccanica if an official inquiry proved the contract worth nearly $750 million was secured through kickbacks.
"If we find any evidence of corruption then we will blacklist the company and even cancel the deal," Defence Minister A. K. Antony told reporters in New Delhi.
"We don't want to jump the gun... (but) we can get our money back at any stage."
India's government announced Tuesday that it had ordered the Central Bureau of Investigation to probe reports of alleged bribery of government officials by Finmeccanica, after the head of the Italian aerospace giant was arrested.
Italian media reports said the company's chairman and chief executive Giuseppe Orsi had been detained as part of an investigation into alleged kickbacks paid to Indian government officials.
Italian prosecutors were reported to suspect that bribes worth around 10 percent of the deal were paid to ensure Finmeccanica's AgustaWestland helicopter unit won the contract.
Under the terms of a deal signed in 2010 and valued at $748-million, the entire fleet should be delivered by 2014. India has already received three of the 12 helicopters which were meant to be used to transport top politicians.
The 2010 deal was cleared by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and later vetted by the defence and the finance ministries.
Antony said his ministry's "integrity is foolproof" while promising that the inquiry would "examine every stage of the contract" process.
"We cannot ignore corruption. Whatever the consequences in any deal, if there is corruption, we will take action," he added.
Indian newspapers quoted from the 64-page Italian probe report on Wednesday, stating that former air force chief S. P. Tyagi was bribed to swing the deal.
Tyagi said he welcomed the Indian inquiry but denied any wrongdoing.
"These allegations are totally baseless and I am denying them categorically. The deal was signed in 2010 whereas I retired in 2007 itself," he told reporters.
But Tyagi acknowledged that three of his cousins had contacts with Finmeccanica.
"The fact is they are related to me... but I have never had discussions about the chopper deal."
India's Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid said the government was in touch with Italy in a bid to obtain more information.
"We have obviously remained in touch with Italy, so that they give us information," Khurshid told reporters.
Antony meanwhile voiced frustration at the lack of response from Italy to repeated requests for information on the allegations since they surfaced a year ago.
"After we saw reports, the Indian media reports of arrests and investigation going on in Italy, immediately we wrote to the Indian Ambassador in Italy to get the details from the Italian government and also the prosecutor who is conducting the inquiry," he said.
The country's main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party said "many Indian names" were allegedly involved in the sale and accused the Congress-led government of dragging its heels in seeking to identify them.
"We see the making of second Bofors scam in the latest Italian chopper deal," said BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad in reference to a scandal over a tank contract which led to the downfall of a previous Congress government in 1989.
Finmeccanica said in an emailed statement on Tuesday that its operations "will continue as usual" after what it called the "precautionary measures issued" against Orsi.

The idea was modest when 13-year-old Evan Hunsberger visualized an Eagle Scout service project as a Good Turn for two military bases near his home in Orange, Calif. Evan's inspiration was a frayed book, Strength for Service to God and Country. The pocket-size devotional had been used by his grandfather, Eugene Hunsberger, during service as a Navy corpsman (medic) in World War II, a pharmacist's mate in Korea, and for more than 60 years as a Scoutmaster.
Originally issued by Abingdon-Cokesbury Press, a United Methodist Church publisher, the book contained a page for every day of the year, with a Bible verse, a short prayer, and an inspirational message or story by a leading Protestant clergyman or other leader of the era. Eugene Hunsberger had read pages to lonely or wounded servicemen in hospitals and later to Boy Scouts during campfires. Hundreds of chaplains had used the book, but it went out of print after the war in Korea ended in 1953.
Evan learned that most chaplains lacked a similar source for providing spiritual comfort to the men and women in today's armed forces. As a service to the military, and a tribute to his grandfather (who gave his blessing to the project but died before it was completed), he decided to print a new edition of the book for distribution at the nearby Los Alamitos and Camp Pendleton military bases.
Evan wrote letters, made telephone calls, and sent e-mails in an effort to obtain the needed permissions to reprint the original text and obtain additional material. His fellow Boy Scouts from Troop 241, classmates from Servite High School, and his parents, brother, and sisters all helped him update the original text and add new material so all faiths could use the book's new version.
Evan sought new prayers from theologians, priests, rabbis, and Muslim clerics, and he received more than 40, including ones from Cardinal Roger M. Mahony, Duke Divinity School professor Karen Westerfield Tucker, United Methodist Bishop Ernest Lyght, Dr. Robert H. Schuller of the Crystal Cathedral, and Calvary Chapel's senior pastor Chuck Smith. New prayers were added for Jewish holy days, like Yom Kippur, and Islamic holy months, such as Ramadan.
Progress was slow at first, but interestand the project's scopegrew as more people became aware of the effort. The General Commission on United Methodist Men agreed from the start to Evan's request to sponsor the project and promote wider distribution of the new edition, which would be published by Providence House Publishers of Franklin, Tenn.
A computer company in Orange scanned the original pages to computer disks for free. Each weekend for three months, four Scouts from Evan's troop and 12 to 30 others, including adult leaders, college students, and classmates, corrected hundreds of typographical errors on the more than 400 scanned pages. Then there were four more months of editing from school, home, and office, and five months of formatting.
Following the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, the Department of Defense agreed to order up to a million copies, for distribution to military personnel around the world. The National Council of Churches and other interfaith groups and chaplains' organizations offered to help distribute the book to police and fire departments and other outlets. The General Commission on United Methodist Men began a nationwide effort to raise $3 million to fund the publishing of the books for the military.
For his efforts, Evan, who is Catholic, was honored by the United Methodist Church with its Good Samaritan Award. The award honors youth who demonstrate the attributes of a minister to others through outreach or humanitarian assistance. On Memorial Day, three years after Evan began his project, the first 10,000 copies of the new book were scheduled to be sent to military bases.
And in June, Evanwho had postponed completing his Eagle requirements to concentrate on his projectfinally received Scouting's highest rank.

Perfectly Picot Shawlette
This pattern is available for $5.00 USD buy it now
The Perfectly Picot Shawlette is a fast, fun knit. It is the perfect use of that single skein of fabulous fingering weight yarn that you have had stashed for a while. It needs approximately 400 yds, but has been made with as little at 380 yds.
The shawlette is made from the bottom up beginning with a Picot Cast On (instructions included). The cast on is a bit time consuming but totally worth it. I always think of it as the first few rows of knitting.
The body is made in short rows that do not required wraps or picking up wraps.

The purpose of an MOT tester (also known as a Nominated Tester) is to carry out specific checks on vehicles to ensure that they are road worthy.
All MOT testers are required to complete a Nominated Tester Training (NTT) course. Upon approval MOT testers must keep up-to-date with industry changes by taking a refresher course every five years.
In order to be eligible to undertake the NTT course the individual must; have a full UK drivers license; have at least four years of full time employment within the service and repair industry; and have no criminal convictions associated with the MOT testing industry.
The salary of an MOT tester can fluctuate depending on the establishment and whether or not the tester has other relevant skills. The average salary is £23,000, whilst employment within inner city areas could peak at as much as £31,000.
There are an abundance of MOT testing jobs available all over the country. This is because most garages will require a certain amount of their mechanics to have a Nominated Tester qualification. Some garages will employ their own in-house mechanic staff to become MOT testers, whilst others may choose to acquire part time and full time staff through recruitment agencies.
