- How to Read a Study Record
Vena saphena magna is still frequently used as graft material in coronary artery bypass grating(CABG, and vein grafts can harvest with either the conventional open technique (Ovh = open vein harvesting), or with less invasive endoscopic techniques (EVH = Endoscopic vein harvesting). The endoscopic techniques have been shown to reduce the incidence of postoperative wound complications while patients are more satisfied with the cosmetic result of the operation on the leg.
Non-randomized studies have raised doubts about patency rates of the vein grafts following EVH compared to OVH, while other studies failed to detect any problems in relation to this. There are only very few data on long-term patency rates from randomized studies.
The purpose of this study is to investigate clinical outcome and patency rates of the vein grafts following either EVH and OVH in 132 patients who underwent CABG for 4-7 years ago as part of a randomized study investigation wound complications. A cost-effectiveness analysis will also be performed.
The hypothesis is: Patency rates following EVH are worse compared to OVH in CABG 4-7 years postoperatively.

Bravo! Zady Calls Out Fast Fashion Companies With A Full-Page Ad In The Wall Street Journal
Yesterday, ethical fashion collective Zady issued a battle cry against fast fashion companies like Forever 21, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Zara, and Topshop in the form of a full-page, no-punches-pulled ad in The Wall Street Journal. "Fast fashion is fast food," the ad declares, listing some of the horrific side effects of our culture's fast fashion addiction: exploited workers (mostly women), toxic pollution, and landfills overflowing with cheap, disposable clothing. It's time to change our shopping habits. It's time to value quality over quantity. It's time to demand sustainable practices, fair wages, and safe work environments from the companies we support with our dollars. As Zady's website puts it, "We should not be compelled to accept throwaway goods as a way of life." Forgive me for being less than eloquent, but FUCK YES.
The founders of Zady, Maxine Bédat and Soraya Darabi, followed up the ad with an op-ed in The Business of Fashion today, in which they argue that millennials value social responsibility and authenticity, and when companies don't comply, it's not just unethical, it's bad for business. At the very least, Zady's publicity push is going to help bring the conversation, and for that I applaud them. Check out the full text of the WSJ ad below:
If you're inspired by Zady's words and want to make an effort to shop more consciously, check out the brand recommendations, tips, and info in our Compassionate Fashion section! Also, I can't recommend Elisabeth Cline's book, Overdressed, enough. It will quite literally change your life.

Am I Pregnant?
I don't want to use pregnancy test kit yet. I missed my period (5 days) I've had sore breasts, my nipples have slightly gotten darker. Everytime I eat, I feel something weird in my stomach. I urinate frequently and I get tired easily. I feel a lot more tired than normal. Additionally, I get random cramps in my stomach that make me want to cry. I also feel something in my upper left side around my rib cage, it kind of feel like I'm being stabbed. Also, I've had a very bad discharge. I also feel bloated most of the time. Am I pregnant?

As sunnymumof5 mentioned, this is an old post but the symptoms you describe could also be symptoms of pregnancy or they could be symptoms of stress or period.
I hope you're happy with whatever the outcome ended up being. I wish you luck!

Hi realdana27,
If you are not sure then the best way to check it on pregnancy test kit. Else you can consult your doctor only then you can sure. Although all these symptoms are related to pregnancy.

J'Maka Love threw for 186 yards and four touchdowns as the Lincoln Abes pulled away in the second half and beat the Foss Falcons by a score of 32-7 on Friday night at historic Lincoln Bowl. The win sets up a date this Friday night against the defending 3A state champion Bellevue Wolverines in Bellevue.
Lincoln started slow against the pesky Falcons, who gave them all they could handle early but could not dent the scoreboard, as Lincoln went into the locker room with a 12-0 halftime lead. Foss twice got inside the Abes' 20-yard line, but failed to capitalize both times.
Lincoln took control early, with Jonathan Hardnett finding the end zone from five yards out early in the first quarter for a 6-0 lead. They added to that lead midway through the second quarter as Love found Kashawn Johnson for a seven-yard touchdown pass to make it 12-0.
The Falcons cut into the lead early in the fourth quarter when quarterback Omar Morris beat the Lincoln defense on a scramble to cut the lead to 12-7. But the Abes would answer back when Love hit Rayshaun Miller with a nine yard touchdown pass with 8:26 to go in the game for a 19-7 lead, and would tack on two more scores to close out the scoring.
While Love had a great night on the offensive side, the Lincoln defense held the Foss offense to a mere 123 yards on the night. With the win Lincoln finished 5-4 overall, and 3-3 in Narrows 3A play. Foss fell to 1-8 overall, and 1-5 in 3A play. The Falcons will close out coach Pat Johnson's first year at the helm with a crossover game against Stadium on Friday night at Mt. Tahoma Stadium.

Cloud storage is very popular since it has many advantages, but there is a new threat to cloud storage that was not considered before. {\\it Self-updatable encryption} that updates a past ciphertext to a future ciphertext by using a public key is a new cryptographic primitive introduced by Lee, Choi, Lee, Park, and Yung (Asiacrypt 2013) to defeat this threat such that an adversary who obtained a past-time private key can still decrypt a (previously unread) past-time ciphertext stored in cloud storage. Additionally, an SUE scheme can be combined with an attribute-based encryption (ABE) scheme to construct a powerful revocable-storage ABE (RS-ABE) scheme introduced by Sahai, Seyalioglu, and Waters (Crypto 2012) that provides the key revocation and ciphertext updating functionality for cloud storage.
In this paper, we propose an efficient SUE scheme and its extended schemes. First, we propose an SUE scheme with short public parameters in prime-order bilinear groups and prove its security under a $q$-type assumption. Next, we extend our SUE scheme to a time-interval SUE (TI-SUE) scheme that supports a time interval in ciphertexts. Our TI-SUE scheme has short public parameters and also secure under the $q$-type assumption. Finally, we propose the first large universe RS-ABE scheme with short public parameters in prime-order bilinear groups and prove its security in the selective revocation list model under a $q$-type assumption.

About the Book
HINDSIGHT describes events in Far North Queensland when the author was Chief Engineer and Joint Chief Executive Officer of the Cairns Harbour Board in the early 1970s. It is a case study of a failed working relationship.
It presents the insider's story of how the author managed to survive repeated attempts to have him fired. Situations were repeatedly engineered by the Chairman in order to discredit him. Eventually the Chairman's attempts to have the author dismissed escalated to an obsession that bordered on the irrational.
An obsession that became so bizarre that it led to an unprecedented joint sitting of the Cairns City Council and the Cairns Harbour Board with the sole purpose of publicly humiliating the author and providing grounds for his dismissal.
HINDSIGHT provides a revealing insight into the character of the Chairman from the author's perspective and describes how the conflict between the two polarized personalities played out.

For Abel Porter, the moment didn't bend time or hang in the air beyond its denouement. The Davis guard had scooped the ball just beyond half court no time to check the clock and hurled it with a hopeful lunge toward the basket. What happened next was unexpected: The ball went in.
Before he could process what he'd just done or what it meant, the moment was gone, having already given way to the celebration, as Davis students swarmed the court in ecstasy.
In the following weeks, however, Porter has relived many times his improbable buzzer-beater that gave the Darts a three-point win over Olympus. After video of the shot became a local internet sensation, ESPN's SportsCenter featured it in its Top 10 as the No. 2 play, something Porter says is almost unfathomable for a local player.
"The more I think about it, the more it's just like, 'Wow, that's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I had,'" Porter said. "It's crazy to think about. I don't think it's really sunk in for me yet."
In the aftermath of his shot making SportsCenter, Porter has become a mini local celebrity. People he never has met come up to him to congratulate him on the shot. Porter's heroics, and its improbable rise to ESPN fame, was all anyone wanted to talk about last weekend at the Energy Classic in Gillette, Wyo., which the Darts won.
"People are just happy to see Utah on SportsCenter," Porter said. "I mean, that hardly happens. I think everyone has been getting excited about it."
From the moment the shot went in, everything that's followed has been a whirlwind for Porter. He knew the tape of his shot had been sent to SportsCenter, but he thought little of it. He'd never seen a local high school player on ESPN frankly, getting that type of exposure was something that didn't happen to Utah players or programs.
But then he checked his Twitter feed, where the news of him being featured on SportsCenter was just breaking. Even then, despite the amount of tweets confirming it, Porter was too stunned to be convinced.
"I didn't even believe them," Porter said. "I just thought it was never going to happen, and I didn't believe it when they told me."
When Porter finally realized it was no joke or prank and that he actually had been on SportsCenter, even his tweet testified to his shock: "Oh. My. Heck. #SCTop10."
As surprised as Porter was, he was not the only one skeptical something like that could happen to a local player. Like Porter, Darts coach Jay Welk knew the video had been submitted, but he had brushed off the possibility of the play actually airing.
He was alerted to the news the play had made the Top 10 from an unlikely source Olympus coach Matt Barnes.
"It was something to the effect of, 'Hey, I had to watch it live, and now I've got to watch it on national television,'" Welk said. "It was kind of funny."
Welk stayed up to catch the midnight showing of SportsCenter, and he's been delighted at the support from the community that has followed for Porter and the rest of the Darts.
"Initially we were all taken aback by it, a little surprised," said Welk, who noted the exposure has been good for Olympus, too. "But I think it's a real exciting thing. It's exciting, obviously, for Abel, for our team, for our community. It's very unique."

WEST COVINA - Vandals broke into a snack bar at West Covina High School, stealing about $500 worth of food and causing $200 in damages, authorities said.
Schools officials reported a burglary to West Covina Police Monday afternoon, after discovering that the snack bar on the football field had been broken into.
According to the police report, the incident occurred between 5 p.m. Saturday and 3:30 p.m. Monday, Lt. Jerry Pearman said.
The suspects ransacked cabinets, tossed paper plates all over the floor, marked walls with graffiti and stole about $500 worth of food and beverages, Pearman said.
"They broke in, stole food items and vandalized the interior of the snack shop," Pearman said.
The facility has since been cleaned up.
Still, the high school's 66-member dance, drill and all-male dance team, which manages the concession stand, said the loss will result in a financial hardship for future competitions.
This weekend, the school will host the annual Winter Celebration performance competition Saturday.
Money made from selling food at the event would serve as a fundraiser to send competitors to future events, including the United Spirit Association Nationals, said Laura Sandoval, vice president of the booster board.
"Now we're starting off at a negative," Sandoval said. "Obviously, we'll buy additional stuff, but now that's a big chunk of money that we have to replace for this weekend. We're glad we found it early, otherwise we wouldn't have known until Friday night."

Past Reviews
Off Broadway Reviews
It's usually disquieting to realize that the play you're watching is likely not the one the author intended to write. A superb new example of this is Anne Fizzard's Good Opinions at the Midtown International Theatre Festival. This sparkling comedy wants only to spin a romantic, funny fairy tale for theatre-savvy audiences, but while it succeeds, its ulterior motives are darker and much more provocative.
That's hardly surprising, as a spoonful of laughter has long helped bitter medicine go down. But seldom do plays tilt at the ivory towers of the theatre establishment to the extent that Good Opinions does, let alone in such a roundabout way that you could just as easily miss it as catch it square in the face. And it all starts with the premise that a coat-check girl at an upstart Theatre District eatery is able to quote - almost word for word - theatre reviews in The New York Times weeks before they're published.
When the young woman, Adele (Nicole Taylor), is heard trashing a previewing show (a musical of Frankenstein) by the show's creative team, her remarks initially provoke anger. When they reappear in the guise of a review by Philip Leahy Repka on opening night, they arouse interest, primarily coming from the show's director, Evan Schwartz (Kevin Stapleton), who believes he's found the way to turn his shows' fortunes around before they're jeopardized.
A romance of sorts follows, with Evan trying to prevent Adele from learning his true motives and his girlfriend and coworker Francine (Joan Pelzer) from learning about Adele. As with many fairy tales, the ending is never really in doubt; despite a few twists along the way, the story ends up in the usual place, and the participants - for the most part - manage to live happily ever after.
Yes, Fizzard sticks close to convention, but she knows what she's doing, and makes the familiar trip a great deal of fun. So does director Katrin Hilbe, who mixes magical realism with slapdash, farcical pacing that gives the show precisely the breezy, otherworldly feel it needs.
Neither Taylor nor Stapleton gives a razor-sharp performance: She's essentially playing the head-in-the-clouds heroine and he the grounded, handsome prince; still, they're a great onstage couple with real romantic and comedic chemistry. The other casting is a bit stiffer; Stephen Morfesis and Wende O'Reilly are solid as Adele's bemused coworkers, and Pelzer is fine as the emotionally and artistically spurned other woman, but the actors playing Evan's producer and composer and the Gene Shalit-like Repka hop the border into caricature and spoil the play's twinkling, unbelievable believability.
But while Fizzard could punch up the writing a bit (Repka's reviews don't sound like anything that would grace The New York Times), the play is basically bulletproof. Or, at the very least, it's guaranteed to seem so to the segment of its potential audience that despairs over the power of the Times. For the real message of Good Opinions isn't the traditional fairy-tale standby that love conquers all, but that the Times's Godlike ability to decide shows' futures is a cancer infecting every theatre practitioner in New York.
The intimation starts off silly enough: Repka's opinions are no better than Adele's, despite the many years of experience and taste that supposedly separating the two, ha ha. But as Repka's role as an Angel of Death becomes more prominent, more threatening, and more important to Evan and his cohorts, we see they're not really fighting for their jobs. They're fighting for their lives.
The Frankenstein musical gets good reviews from Time and the Daily News, but everyone knows it's dead from the opening words of the Times notice. Evan and his collaborators never question it, but just accept that they're done for and don't tackle the problem; instead, they try to learn instead what Repka thinks and then cater to that. And, Fizzard suggests, who can blame them? How can art survive, let alone flourish, when a production's entire goal is to please the only critic whose word matters?
If it's a defeatist attitude, it's one with some factual basis - Fizzard knows, as everyone with even a tangential connection to the New York theatre does, that this is the way things work. Maybe not - hopefully not - to this degree, but it's a serious problem that won't be corrected until those suffering from it take it upon themselves to discover a solution. Evan gives the Times its power by capitulating to Repka's will and whims. But what happens if he makes another choice?
That, though, is the subject of another play - a sequel to this one? Perhaps, though it's difficult to say that it would find the same precarious balance between fun and scathing indictment that this one does. The play's attitude toward the press is so bitter, so acidic that it seems as if there's nothing left to say about it. That might cause problems for Fizzard - Good Opinions is good enough to bring her success, but will she get the chance? It's impossible to imagine it receiving a rave in The New York Times.

Title : O5H (Morse Intercept Operator) Performance: An Exploratory Study

Abstract : The US Army Intelligence Center and School-Devens (USAISD) has ongoing a number of efforts to enhance the training and performance of Morse Operator personnel (Military Occupational Specialty 05H). With the recent designation of USAISD as the executive agent for Morse training, this involves the addition of Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps personnel to the training base. The morse position is also among the most expensive of MOS from recruiting through basic training, to the resident training which involves extensive one- on-one individual computer assisted instruction. USAISD is reviewing various aspects of the Morse Advanced Individual Training (AIT) in order to keep AIT attrition to a minimum. One such effort is the conversion of their training delivery system from the learning of individual Morse characters followed by incrementing speed of transcription (an analytical approach), to training each character at a high speed and incrementing the number of characters (a perceptual approach). This technology is expected to be implemented in FY 1990. A more immediate USAISD initiative was to request ARI assistance in identifying factors which are important to becoming a successful Morse operator. For USAISD to determine how to improve their training program, it is first necessary to identify relevant factors critical to performance. This report describes the ARI effort to identify and relate such successful performance factors to successful training performance.

Is this an known XFS issue, or do I need to go bother someone else? > Yes this would be a known unresolved issue, I'm afraid. We will look at resolving this while merging kernel changes with Andreas G.'s ACL/EA patch. This problem is that we can't apply the umask if we have the chance of having a default ACL on the dir. In xfs acl code if we find out that it wasn't a default ACL after all, then we apply the umask as usually is intended. But in the case of nfsd, we shouldn't be applying the umask. (Steve's hack solution for nfsd) Andi also had a possible solution (mentioned below).

I would say the answer is yes. On Aug 2, Andreas released a new patch, 0.7.15, for the 2.4.7 kernel. Having a quick scan of the patch he has definitely changed where the umask is applied in the case of no default ACL. He has also patched some nfsd code. It would be worth going through this patch carefully...:) > The tricky part in justifying this is nothing > in the main kernel needs this change right now. > Just to be sure I understand what is going on... Previously, the umask was applied to the mode in vfs_mkdir(), vfs_mknod() and vfs_create(). In 2.4.7, the umask code was moved to sys_mkdir(), sys_mknod() and open_namei() respectively, to just before where the vfs_*() calls are being made. The other caller of these particular vfs_*() calls is nfsd_create [linux/fs/nfsd/vfs.c]. So by moving the umask code out it means that nfsd_create() will no longer be calling the vfs functions which were setting the umask. But in the XFS inode operations, where we set up linvfs_create(), linvfs_mkdir() and linvfs_mknod(), we are still applying the umask if no default ACL exists. --Tim ====================================================================

Here's an all-new Air Jordan 1 Retro High release for the girls in a winter-friendly colorway of Daybreak, Ink, and White; you might've seen a similar colorway on the recently previewed Air Jordan Force Fusion IV 'Laser' that was also a girls-only release and it looks like this color combination will be a recurring theme for many girls color-ups from the Jordan Brand Holiday 2010 Collection. What makes this nubuck-uppered pair special is the lace applique on the center panel and toe, like the two previous releases we showed you. These new girls-only AJ1s just hit Jordan Brand retailers like SneakersNStuff but you can also pick up a pair on eBay.

Posted By Alex Belth On September 24, 2003 @ 7:24 pm In Bronx Banter | Comments Disabled
There is no joy involved with the Yankees. The reporters covering them have mentioned this time and again during the course of the 2003 season. There is only victory, and nothing else in Boss George's universe. Win or look out. That may or not be true.
Fortunately, I only have to root for the Bombers and I get a tremendous amount of joy following the team. I also appreciate the joy that Derek Jeter derives from the heat of a pennent race. He shows it in little ways in practically each game. I think that between the lines, there is joy to be found on the Yankee team, regardless of the pressure they face from their owner, the press, and the demanding fans.
Heck, some fans may only be happy if the Yankees win the Serious, but as I mentioned earlier today, you are setting yourself up for a long, cold winter if that's the only thing that will make you happy.
Bob Klapisch [1], a longtime New York reporter, delineates the possible outcomes for the Yanks should they lose in the playoffs or Serious this year. One thing is for sure—and I'm sorry to say this—but unless they win it all, Cashman and Torre's coaches won't be back.

Two CVM Veterinarians
Join Team to Battle Cancer
usually spend their time caring for the lives of our four-legged
friends. However, these two veterinarians have found the time
to save the lives of humans as well. University of Missouri
College of Veterinary Medicine faculty members Drs. Marie
Kerl and Philip Johnson are training to run the 2008 Chicago
Marathon Oct. 12 with the Team in Training program through
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society started
in 1949 by the de Villiers, whose son Robert died at the age
of 16 from leukemia. In 1988, Bruce Cleland formed a team
to run the New York City Marathon to raise money for the society
and honor his daughter Georgia, a leukemia survivor. They
called themselves the "Team in Training." This
year TNT is celebrating its 20th anniversary. The first team
raised $322,000, and during the past 20 years that number
has grown to more than $850 million for cancer research. The
program, which started out as 38 runners the very first year,
has seen more than 360,000 participants.
is the second year both Kerl and Johnson will run in the Chicago
Marathon for TNT. The two have a common interest that keeps
them training – Keegan. Keegan Burke Grant lost his
battle with cancer at the age of 8 in the summer of 2006.
He was diagnosed with leukemia when he was 6, and his TNT
Team was formed soon after his diagnosis. Keegan loved his
team and he would attend events and training when he was able
"He kept tally of the money his team
raised, sure that he was going to make a difference and cure
cancer," recalled his mother, Mimi Noonan. "Once,
he told another kid, newly diagnosed with leukemia, 'hey
man, I got a whole team working to cure your cancer'."
Keegan's mantra became "Happiness
is a choice," his mother said.
Keegan's mother is a close friend
of both Dr. Kerl and Dr. Johnson, and it is in memory of Keegan
and others who have battled cancer that the two are running
this marathon for TNT. "That Marie and Philip are willing
to do this for Keegan is a testament to the effect he had
on everyone who knew him. He had an incredible spirit, and
it lives on in everyone who met him," Noonan said.
Training for a marathon is a daunting task
for anybody. Juggling the demands of their positions at the
Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital while finding time to
train, demands a great deal of commitment from the two veterinarians.
"Balancing time between work and
training is challenging," Johnson said. "My work
often (at this time of the year) requires me to be here in
the teaching hospital for long hours standing and walking
on the concrete all day – it's quite hard to run
at the end of the day." Although the middle of the day
is hot and humid, he said he finds it easier to run during
those times. He also has more time to run when he is not on
clinic assignment.
"Training for a marathon is completely
doable – it just takes time and sticking to a training
plan, which Team in Training provides for us," Kerl
said. Running relieves stress and is a good source of exercise,
she said. Kerl finds it best to run in the mornings before
the muggy mid-Missouri temperatures hit their peak. She has
a group that she runs with on Tuesday and Thursday mornings
at 5:30. The closer the two get to the race, the longer their
runs become. The longest run before the race is a 20-mile
distance, which is set up through the TNT training schedule.
Cindy Fotti is the local TNT coach. Her
job is to supervise and inspire the runners and walkers in
the area by creating a schedule for them and keeping them
motivated. "People like Marie and Philip don't
need my help much past that because they have no problem remembering
why they are raising money and training. Whenever I say 'remember
the reason' to them it just brings a smile to their
faces because they are very aware of why they are doing this,"
Fotti said.
Participants raising funds each year to
support the marathon and cancer research must meet a minimum
target. When that amount is met, TNT will pay for travel expenses
and the race entry fee for the participant. Johnson has a
goal of $3,400 to raise, while Kerl is working toward a goal
of $5,000. They gather that support by sending letters to
family, friends, colleagues and other contacts. They also
have individual Web sites through TNT that allow for people
interested to donate through a secure website. There are also
opportunities for organizations to sponsor individuals or
whole teams.

|June 29, 1623
|July 4, 1696(aged 73)
|Daimyō of Odawara Domain (1634-1683)
|daughter of Mōri Hidemoto
Inaba Masanori (稲葉 正則, June 29, 1623 – July 4, 1696) was a daimyō of Odawara Domain in Sagami Province (modern-day Kanagawa Prefecture) in early-Edo period Japan. His courtesy title was Mino no Kami.
Inaba Masanori was the second son of the previous daimyō of Odawara, Inaba Masakatsu. As his mother died when he was still very young, he was raised by his grandmother, Kasuga no Tsubone, the wet nurse to Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu. On the death of his father in 1634, he became head of the Inaba clan, and inherited his father's position as daimyō of Odawara. Due to the influence of his grandmother, he rose rapidly through the hierarchy of the Tokugawa shogunate and was appointed Rōjū under Shogun Tokugawa Ietsuna on December 8, 1681. On May 27, 1683 he retired from public life, turning his domain over to his son, Inaba Masamichi.

Carmen Electra, Tila Tequila, Aubrey O'Day & Kirsten Dunst Halloween costumes
Here's the last round of celebrity Halloween pics before I go insane and start hitting myself in the nuts with a Jack-O-Lantern. Dig in:
1. Carmen Electra as "Sexy Theater Candy Girl." I'm diabetic, you heartless bitch! Just kidding. Got any Jujubes?
2. Tila Tequila as "Asian Leprechaun Stripper Girl Who Really Wants You to Believe She's Bi-Sexual." Wait…
3. Aubrey O'Day as "The Little Mermaid after Her Freshman Year at College." But, mom, the boys at the frat house said it was light beer.
4. And, finally, Kirsten Dunst as "A Super Stoned Version of Herself in Five Years." Looking forward to the next Spider-man movie where Mary Jane (!) sits around watching Family Guy reruns all day. Web-tastic!

Garbage Pail Kids--a series of collectible stickers produced by Topps in the 1980s--combined spectacular artwork and over-the-top satire. The result was an inspired collaboration between avant-garde cartoonists and humorists including Art Spiegelman, Mark Newgarden, John Pound, Tom Bunk, and Jay Lynch. A new generation of fans continues to embrace this pop-culture phenomenon as Garbage Pail Kids stickers are still being published. Now, for the first time, all 206 rare and hard-to-find images from Series 1 through 5 are collected in an innovative package, along with a special set of four limited-edition, previously unreleased bonus stickers. This exciting follow up to Wacky Packages is guaranteed to appeal to die-hard collectors as well as a new generation of fans.Praise for Garbage Pail Kids:
I worried that the Garbage Pail Kids] might seem too time-bound for their own good; but if anything, 27 years later, they're more poignant. Maybe it's because I'm a worried, concerned adult, but more likely it's because nothing is ever as funny as it is when you're ten years old--and everything is a lot scarier. --CapitalNewYork.comThe book is a wonderfully designed tribute to these shit-disturbing cards in all their graphic, full-color glory. --ComicsBeat.com There's a lot of interesting stuff in Spiegel man's intro, and in the afterward by John Pound, the artist who originated and drew the bulk of the Kids. But the real reason to buy this book is for the graphic brilliance of the art itself... --Boston Phoenix

Affordable Cohousing in the East Bay: Two Decades of Sustainable Community
Impact Hub Bay Area
Monday, May 12, 2014 from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM (PDT)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
2014 marks the 20th anniversary of Berkeley Cohousing (just down the street from Impact Hub Berkeley), and a growing range of permanently affordable green homeowner and rental shared-living options in the East Bay.
As Bay Area market-rate homeownership and even rentals grow ever more out of reach of our young adults, elders, and families, how can we innovate to bring the tools of community to serve our needs and those of the many others in our shoes?
Let's spend Monday evening, May 12th, breaking bread together to celebrate, evaluate, and plan together, in community.
Share our experiences living in and seeking community, swap stories and trade tips. Get a taste of an (un)common meal together cooked by Alice Green, the 72-year-old Berkeley Cohousing founder who inspired a national lobbying campaign that can help keep community members from losing their homes. Map your personal path to sustainable living. Learn from Cohousing Coaches (and Impact Hub Berkeley Founding Members) Raines Cohen and Betsy Morris about who else is doing what, where, and how to get involved.
This event, which will run from 6:30-9 PM, is proudly part of Affordable Housing Week, organized by East Bay Housing Organizations. Admission is by donation, to help support Impact Hub and East Bay Cohousing's advocacy work; we also accept complementary currencies: BayBucks and Bay Area Community Exchange (BACE) hours. Free for Impact Hub Members and East Bay Cohousing Supporting Members. RSVP via EventBrite or www.ebcoho.org [free membership required]. For more info, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 510-842-6224.
If you cannot attend the event, please email us at least 1 day before the scheduled time of the event. It will help us plan the right amount of food.

- This shall be done shortly. ~ 01:55, 27 February 2011
The idea, the angle, the grand funny of the article...
|Ah, your first article... and let me say, for a first, it is a amazingly... well, article-like, compared to most of them. Coherent, sensible, has funny bits... it even has a definite concept to which it sticks pretty much all the way through and even builds off; I'm impressed. That's unusual, see. Which is kind of sad, but... anyhow. Yours has an idea and angle, so I'll stop yakking about what's just fine and go into stuff that might prove more helpful for improvement.
Main conceptual issue, I think, would just be accessibility to the average reader - will they be able to get it? The Christian whatnot is more widely known, so that's not an issue; very common religion, with some rather overly advertised silliness and well-known idiosyncrasies amongst practitioners, too - you put some of these to use, but why not other bits? What in regards to Christians winds up in the news, for instance? What do they do? Seriously, I don't know; I don't read the news, but it might prove a good connection for other folks that do. The more these things connect to folks' own lives and experiences, the more funny they tend to be.
Problem is, it's very computery - obviously, since it's about a distribution of an operating system, it would be, but that doesn't mean you have to go into such technical detail - the detail is lost on most folks, and really does little more than alienate them. Lose some of the specifics, and mix the really good ones up with more vague things, analogies and metaphors and other fancible whatnots that impress the liberal arts majors. I tried doing that, used a silly analogy in one of mine (granted, that was more because I was on a deadline and couldn't think of anything to write, but that's beside the point) - and it came out a little weirdly there, but with the whole Christianity thing, you have a lot more to work with. I mean, you do this already with the God as kernel and other changed names, but really parallel the things more, and develop those parallels, and you may even manage to teach the plebes a thing or two about computers in general in the process. Compare specifics to the Bible, perhaps? Just as So-and-so did some miracle, UbuntuCE does... something. How even the tiny details are the same...
At the end of it all, though, know your audience. Work with that.
|Prose and formatting
Appearance, flow, overall presentation...
|This is probably your most problematic regard. It's not that you can't write or even that it's sloppily written, since those just plain ain't the case, but it's very cursory, doesn't go particularly in-depth with the jokes, and doesn't seem particularly organised. It's just section, section, section... without much apparent reason why most of them they're in the order in which they are. Make it flow. Start by introducing the thing, yes, but then have that lead directly into the next part, which in turn leads into the next - there should be reason why it is in the order it is, perhaps all along building up momentum so you can end it with one finally grand funny... though that last bit certainly isn't necessary. One way to do it.
And go more into the topics. So cursory. If you stop on them a little longer and develop the jokes, say some more relevant stuff, who the developers are, what the impacts of things are, how the monotheistic kernel affects operations, how it handles multiple cores, how the aengels operate differently from daemons, what problems this might have caused in development, how users react... pull it together.
Don't just list, talk about things. Mind, there is a definite hatred for lists around here - your article as it is demonstrates how much briefer and cursory they can make things, as well as how much potential humour can be lost, but lists also tend to be idiocy magnets from IPs and whatnot. Very easy to tack on new entries, not like with paragraphs which tend to have more definite structure and flow. It's also easier to read a paragraph. Smoother. Minds seem to like that. Get rid of the lists. Paragraph it, not just so it's funnier and you have more of an opportunity to go in-depth and so it reads better, but also so it's harder for random passerby to muck it up without it being immediately apparent. Keep the ideas, of course, but as sentences within a paragraph... here's a random one.
The implementation, how funny the article comes out...
|Ah, the notions... world domination, assimilation, monotheism, the inevitable heretics... just lovely. Anyhow, for a section-by-section because I'm boring like that:
The Software
Monotheistic Kernel
The File System
The Code
Differences From Other Ubuntu Editions
Safety Features
Known Bugs
Good Friday Egg
Release Names
Meh, this list has less to it than the others. It's the sort of bad listy list that elicits hatred from people. The others just need expansion, but this is just some names; not really that funny. I'd suggest cutting it out and focussing on the others, really. Have some examples of names somewhere else, whichever the better are (I'd suggest, but I'm not rightly sure, myself), but no need for the whole pile.
See Also
The graphics themselves, as well as their humour and relevance...
|Okay, for the first one, why is there a FSM in the centre? That seems incredibly strange, for a Christian OS, considering what the FSM is. Caption doesn't really help, either. Hopefully that's just a reference to something and I'm being clueless, but the entire thing just doesn't seem particularly funny to me.
Second image... that's a lovely one. Possibly a mite overused (I've seen it on a few other articles), but it fits the article, as does the third. Could be more amusing potentially, or could support the article more, as these are generally why images are there, but... actually, a section on releases, beta versions, testers, etc might not be a bad idea, in general.
Anything else... or not...
|How much of an effect could fairy wings have on a semi? Er, I mean... miscellaneous number. Gut feeling about the article as it currently stands, or some such. Not that the numbers mean terribly much, anyhow... I never was any good at following scales. Heed the comments more, or something.
|Final score
~ 10:37, 27 February 2011
|Congratulations; you have just received your first in-depth whingeing about an article. That's basically what this is, just me complaining about everything I could think of regarding the piece, so please don't be put off by it - you have a definite start of something, here, and some rather lovely ideas already established. What they need is consolidation - pull the article together into a more solid read that flows more, and it could become something rather great, I suspect. And you're still working on it, so I do hope this helps, good luck, and don't hesitate to drop by if you have any questions, comments, etc.

Business Council of Australia chairman
Mr Shepherd, 68, has confirmed he is not planning to extend his current fixed term despite requests from some BCA directors to stay in the role for another year following the federal election in September.
He has been personally approaching senior business figures about the role to ensure an orderly transition in November but no decision on a replacement has been made.
It is understood Telstra chairman
Traditionally, a company chairman or a retired senior chief executive would be considered for the job.
Former Woolworths chief executive
Mr Shepherd would not confirm who he had spoken to about the job but said the issue was under discussion and a final decision was months off.
"I have found it extremely stimulating and have a terrific working relationship with [BCA president] Jennifer Westacott," he told The Australian Financial Review. "I am a fervent believer in having an orderly transfer."
BCA chairmen generally hold the job for two years, although there are no restrictions to an extension.
Mr Shepherd is also the chairman of listed contractor Transfield Services and chairs the fledgling AFL team the Greater Western Sydney Giants, which plays its second season this year.
He was appointed as president of the BCA in November 2011.
Mr Shepherd has been a vocal critic of the Labor government over the carbon tax and the need for greater infrastructure spending.
The BCA is playing an active role in debate on business reform leading up to the election. Earlier this month it called for an audit of government spending and said Labor needed to overhaul its spending priorities to avoid a crisis.
Wesfarmers chief executive
"Generally the case is that the chairperson gets a clear run to much closer to the completion of his term," Mr Goyder said. "The balance of this year is going to be incredibly important to policy and the BCA's role. I don't imagine the board of the BCA will be considering too closely succession issues for awhile yet."
Mr Goyder praised Mr Shepherd, who he said was "doing a very good job".
Mr Shepherd inherited the role from Graham Bradley in 2011, beating contenders at the time who included three now former chief executives – Commonwealth Bank of Australia's Ralph Norris, Orica's Graeme Liebelt and Mallesons Stephen Jaques' Robert Milliner.
The BCA board is expected to appoint a new president on November 14.
The Australian Financial Review

Terry, you tell such a good story with your pictures. I especially liked looking at the woman who was contemplating a painting, her body language spoke volumes especially in relation to the art and the people around her.

Cast-Iron Skillet Apple Crisp
This rustic apple dessert—a mixture of sweet and tart apples and buttery bread crumbs—slow-cooks on the grill over indirect heat, which is created by piling all the hot coals on one side, away from the food, to make a kind of outdoor oven.
Slideshow: More Recipes With Apples
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 8
- 2 cups fine fresh bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 3 medium McIntosh apples—peeled, cored and sliced 3/4 inch thick
- 3 medium Granny Smith apples—peeled, cored and sliced 3/4 inch thick
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- Pinch of ground cloves
- 1 1/2 cups plain yogurt, preferably goat's milk
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
How to make this recipe
Light a grill. When the coals are hot, push them to one side of the grill. Put the bread crumbs in a large cast-iron skillet. Set the skillet on the grill opposite the coals; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the bread crumbs are nicely toasted, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bread crumbs to a large bowl and stir in the light brown sugar and half of the melted butter.
In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with the lemon juice and zest. Add the dark brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves and toss well.
Set the skillet back on the grill opposite the coals and scatter half of the bread crumb mixture over the bottom. Spread the apple slices in the skillet in an even layer. Top with the remaining bread crumbs and drizzle with the remaining melted butter. Cover the grill and cook until the apples are tender and bubbling and the crisp is browned, about 45 minutes. Remove the skillet from the grill and let rest for at least 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix the yogurt with the confectioners' sugar. Serve the apple crisp, warm or at room temperature, with the sweetened yogurt.
Make Ahead
The recipe can be prepared through Step 2 one day ahead. Refrigerate the apple mixture; let the crumb mixture stand at room temperature.

Expert Facialist Results In Just 15 Minutes
Litrally obsessed!! with this face mask. Was a bit unsure at first as it's a dry mask but when I took mask off you can see results straight away, my skin looked brighter and glowing. Definitely recommend this love it!
I just love the mask does exactly as it says my husband was so impressed he even used it on himself and he loves it. You really must try you will love it. !
I have no idea how this works but it does! Your mind tells you it shouldn't because it's dry so there is no residue left on your face to wash off but it definitely brightened my skin and was a lot smoother. Yet another amazing miracle product from Charlotte Tilbury! x
I've used this twice so far. I love how you can pop it on while watching telly, & 15 mins later take it off & carry on with your fave proggy. No to-ing & fro-ing to the bathroom to wash it off. Fabulous! My husband said my skin was really glowing when I took it off. You can feel the formula on your face afterwards - like a mind of moisturiser on there, & it really did last hours. The 2nd time i used it it still worked great but there was definately less formula on my skin than the previous time, so i'm curious to see if the 3rd time will work sufficiently. I've bought the multi-pack since & hoping this brings lovely results as I keep using it. (Fragrance free & my skin in very sensitive but didnt cause any reactions) .
Love this mask! I was a little skeptical until I took the mask off my face, because while it was on it didn't feel like anything. I'm used to the feel of other masks. I was pleasantly surprised how the mask fit, as I have a smaller face. It's perfect. My skin looked amazing and super glowy. I would defiantly repurchase, except this time I'd get the four pack! Totally a must try ladies!
This mask really works. Great results even on mature skin. The dry mask is practical you can wear specs over it; doesn't gunk up your hair around your face and can be used 3 times! Fantastic!
My skin really DID feel hydrated and smooth even hours later! It didn't leave any sticky residue on my skin and my skin looked really healthy! I also liked how it felt on my face and stayed on so easily! Plus it DIDN'T irritate my skin or cause any spots like some mask do..
I received this as a free sample. Its great. Its a dry mask which is great because there is no mess. After 15 mins my face was all kinds of soft and plumped. You get 3 uses, so its worth it. Love. Was not uncomfortable at all to wear,maybe a bit scary haha. Make sure u put the pink side on your face! xox
Darlings, introducing the dry mask of the future! Inspired by the technical innovations of Korean beauty, my Instant Magic Facial DRY Sheet Face Mask, with its revolutionary biomimetic delivery system is the Magic Facial DRY sheet mask of the future! It features ingredients which are clinically proven* to reduce wrinkles, smooth, brighten, lift and hydrate your skin exactly where it needs it. Make all your magic skin wishes come true!
•Get glowing red-carpet-ready skin in just 15 minutes!
•The mask is dry as the textile fabric has already been impregnated with tiny vectors of Charlotte's MAGIC actives – featuring vitamins, floral extracts, peptides, oils and butters – which are delivered directly into the third layer of the epidermis.
•This unique DRY sheet mask is like nothing you've tried before! It has an in-built technological 5 Skin Solution IQ which tailors to your skin, feeding it exactly what it needs.
•Bio-mimetic revolutionary system gives a prolonged release of the ingredients, giving it time to immerse into your complexion.
•Usual wet masks are mainly glycerin & water and slop on but the ingredients evaporate off of the skin after 45 minutes. This lasts for 8 HOURS!
•Because it isn't a wet formula, it doesn't harbour bacteria, so you can use this up to 3 times!
•Ideal if you want gorgeous, glowing HD camera-ready skin that is hydrated and revitalised.
Expert results tried & tested by YOU:
•91% agree skin is more HYDRATED
•85% agree skin is BRIGHTER

That's ok. I can wait, really. Just don't want to!
Got the 750i in dark grey with saddle leather interior and the matte dash (combo I saw in a white 750 that looked amazing). Also got the M Sport, Executive package and the best part about it all, the B&O sound system. REALLY like my music in the car. So that is the one thing that is making me crazy -- to hear that radio again! I almost went to the dealers yesterday just to sit in one of their cars with it and listen once again.
Contacted my sales rep and he said I can have the $3500 cash back that they are offering. He also said Dec may have even better incentives. So that makes me happy too. Could be that I will be under $1000/mo for the car in the end, which would be fab given that I am playing over $1000 for my Lexus LS lease right now!
BTW, were you able to track your car production in the end? Mine still says "order entered" but doesn't have it in production even though my sales guy sent me a screen shot showing that it's being painted.
What config did you get on the Alpina??

My name is Riley Alexander and I could not be more thrilled to be part of the CollegeFashionista team this spring! I'm a sophomore at James Madison University majoring in Media Arts and Design (SMAD) with a concentration in Journalism. I have always had a love for writing, but my passion for fashion came at a later start in my life. Growing up in Richmond, Virginia, I always wore a uniform, having no ability to express my individuality through accessorizing due to strict principles and rigorous rules. As I matured, so did my style. I abandoned the cookie cutter style my fellow classmates pursued and finally started my fashion journey that I am continuing today.
When first coming to JMU in Harrisonburg, Virginia, I was a bit precautious on dressing outside of the box. Having the ability to wear my own clothes around campus was so unfamiliar, yet so exciting for me. I decided that college was my chance to express myself to thousands of new faces on campus through the clothes I was wearing. Now, the sidewalks and hallways of JMU campus have become my runway.
In the wise words of the fabulous stylist Rachel Zoe, "Style is a way to say who you are without speaking," and couldn't be more right with this statement. To me, having style is the most expressive and creative way to communicate with others who are you and who you can become. That's what is so great about fashion is that it has no boundaries at all. One day I can strut myself in a pair of leather pants and an edgy fringe top and the next I can sport a flirty dress with cowboy boots. With the help of Forever 21, Tobi and Urban Outfitters, I can keep my style changing to one trend to the next.
I'm so looking forward to heading back to Harrisonburg in a few weeks to show off all the wonderful Fashionistas and Fashionistos that James Madison University has to offer!

I have been wanting to try Anneke Jans after reading reviews of other hounds. Had just noticed that AJ was participating in Portsmouth's Restaurant Week (ends Sun, Nov 15) so we made a resv (AJ is in Kittery, ME just over bridge from Portsmouth, NH). What a great deal - $29.95 for 3 courses - appetizer, entree & dessert. The food was fabulous - I had mussels for app, roasted cod over polenta for entree, and lemon crepe with blueberry compote for dessert. Everything was delicious.
The cod was a very generous, thick piece but was perfectly cooked, tender and moist, olives offered an interesting flavor contrast. Even though we ordered from the Rest Wk menu, and only had a glass of wine, the waiter could not have been more helpful or gracious. They offered 4 entree choices on the rest wk menu - the cod, a beef dish, a lamb dish, and a vegetarian dish. So, altho choice was limited there was something for everyone. The dessert list was not limited - my husband had the bread pudding with caramel, and rum sauce, which was outstanding!
Hard to think of a single off-note. Oh, and my husband asked for a recommendation for a dry red wine, and waiter brought the house chianti -- excellent! If rest wk's goal is to attract new diners to try the rest, and motivate them return at full price - mission accomplished! Highly recommend. Their regular prices are a little high, so ck out the menu their website; if your not put off by the prices, you won't be disappointed in the food. Make sure you make a resv, it is a small place, and has a very casual, laid back atmosphere.
