I am 6 weeks post op and I see more larger bumps than before the procedure. I am trying not to look in the mirror every day, as I understand it's a slow healing process. Could you explain the biological stages after the procedure? Are there any pictures of patients at different stages that we could see to help us understand? Thank you for your feedback!!
What Are the Healing Stages of Cellulaze?
Doctor Answers 9
Time to heal from Cellulaze procedure
As the other surgeons have stated, it will take time to heal from the procedure, usually 3-6 months, but you can continue to have improvements for up to a year. The swelling is probably local tissue inflammtion from the healing process that should resolve over the next few months.
Healing time after Cellulaze
The healing process after a Cellulaze treatment can be expected to last 3-6 months. During that period of time, your treated areas will go through many changes. Often, there is an initial improvement in the appearance due to swelling. As that swelling subsides (at different rates in different places), the treated area can return to its original appearance or look worse. But over some time, the results will eventually become apparent. Patience is truly a virtue when dealing with Cellulaze.
Healing after Cellulaze
Cellulaze requires patience....a lot of patience. It's difficult to have a procedure done and then wait weeks to months to see results. During this time it is almost quite common for the treated areas and sometimes even surrounding/adjacent areas to look worse. This is all a matter of swelling and fluid collection. Though the procedure seems minimal at the surface because of the small incisions and the use of laser to treat the tissue, what is happening beneath the surface is much more involved and does take the body some time to recover. (much longer than the incisions at the surface) We strongly recommend our patients have Smoothshapes or lymphatic massage for just this reason--to help mobilize the fluids and have a smoother result sooner. Each leg, though on the same body, can heal at different rates and even different areas on the same leg heal differently. Follow up with your surgeon for suggestions more specific to your case and concerns--they will know best since they treated you.
Good luck~

Healing stages of Cellulaze
The process does take many months - from initial bruising and swelling to a sometimes disappointing return to your previous state once the initial swelling subsides, to lumpiness and then slow improvement. We have found that massage or SmoothShapes treatments can help improve some of the lumpiness from fluid collections in the postoperative course and speed up recovery. Tissue and skin has "memory", and it takes a while for it to change and the fluid build-up to resolve, even though your surgeon likely felt the bands actually release during the treatment.

Cellulaze results
It really does take 3 to 6 months to see the final results and you will really love it at that point. The lumps are due to the process and they heal at different rates. So, don't worry you still have a lot of healing left to do!
Initially for the first 4-8 weeks you may still see some bruising and swelling as well as experience bumps and lumpiness (caused mainly by swelling) which is all part of the natural healing process. Remember that the results will appear better and better as time goes on. We have seen amazing results at 6 mos out with the skin tightening effect of the procedure. You need to remain patient. I know it's absolutely nomal to keep checking to see on results every day, but rest assured that you will be very happy in the end Make sure you follow up with your PS if you have concerns in the interim.
Cellulaze healing
Cellulaze is a very effective procedure. But as you know, you will not be bikini ready immediately after your procedure. Depending on the severity of your cellulite, the amount of treatment, and your activity level and your compliance with compression therapy, the swelling can last from 4 - 8 weeks. I prepare my patients that some patients may actually look worse than better starting around week 4. Why? I believe it has to do with a differential resolution in swelling in the area of treatment. It truly takes 3-6 months to see your results. It takes that long for the 20-30% collagen growth (skin tightening/thickening and improvement in elasticity). I'm sure you will love your results in a matter of weeks. Please followup with your PS for an assessment.
Healing after Cellulaze
Cellulaze will take a few weeks to heal, be sure to wear the compression garment to keep the skin secure and help with swelling. Patients are able to return to work within 2 business days after the procedure.

Hyper-Threading (HT) activated 2. HT deactivated @1: When HT is activated (BIOS setting), most often with the second resume from STR the whole system is only responding sluggishly (as described in my first posts above). This behaviour is independent from the desktop environment I am using. Be it XFCE, LXDE, KDE or fluxbox). "vmstat -i" is not showing signs of an interrupt storm or any other abnormality. I tried unloading and loading different modules in the rc.suspend / rc.resume scripts but without any success. Another thing is that when shutting down the system the screen turns black (or blank for that matter) right after you see the logout screen but shutdown is performed normally. The only exception to this is when I was using LXDE before shutdown. @2: With HT deactivated in BIOS switching to state S3 and resuming seems to work always (though I have not tested it more than 8 times in a row).

Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies
The most perfect brownie recipe I have ever made. They're soft, yet sturdy and the perfect amount of chocolate- not to sweet or rich... just right. And, wonderful presentation, too! I would be proud to serve these to company any day!! One warning, the pan size specified is uncommon and not one that I own. I use a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 pan and bake them for 35-40 minutes. They are done when set in the middle- do not let get brown on top.
Top Review by hurricanesweetie
I baked these brownies this morning and may I say that the brownies are "to die for." Very moist and cake-like. I did however forget the chocolate chips, Duh to me. I used a 16" by 10" pan and baked for 30 minutes. I got 40 brownies from this size pan. One thing I did was to put small dollups everywhere so that the cream cheese was everywhere. Even the on the edges and corners. You gotta have the cream cheese mixture in every sinful bite. Thank you Munchkin Mama for posting the recipe.

After eight years with Roxy, Carissa Moore is heading off to perhaps greener—or at least more caffeinated and neon-streaked—pastures, signing on with Red Bull and Nike 6.0. "I am so stoked," she says. "This is so new I haven't got my stickers yet, but hopefully I will get them soon."
Having been with Roxy for all of her professional surfing career, the 16-year-old is both excited for a change and appreciative of all that Roxy has done for her. "Carissa Moore has grown up with the Roxy brand and will forever be part of our history," says Randy Hild, Executive Vice President of Roxy. "We regret losing Carissa but understand that the process of growing up means taking different journeys. We are grateful for all she has given to our brand and couldn't be prouder."
Though Carissa's been out of the spotlight for the past year or so while she focuses on school, there is no doubt that if/when the 11-time NSSA champion decides to return to competition, she will be a dominant force on the women's surfing front.
"We're super psyched to have her be part of the Nike 6.0 program," says Jason Kenworthy of Nike 6.0. "She's pretty much one of the best girls to step foot on a surfboard—she's one of the most progressive, naturally gifted stylists. We will continue to support her and help her fulfill her dreams—whether that be contests or free surfing."

Courts are notorious for dismissing public displays of public opinion and judges consider lawyers' briefs, not public trends or opinion.
Every advocacy organization I've belonged to tries to affect elections, not courts, and if they have an interest in a particular case will try to file an amicus brief, not picket the court.

6. our efforts should be turned towardsa making Confgress accountable to the voters -blue or red
At the present time the repugnutsi various state legislatures have Gerrymandered the states to the extent that they undeservedly have the majority in the House of Representatives.
It is clear that this Gerrymandering puts them outside of any accountability to the citizens and therefore eager and able to help the one percent no matter the effect on our nation in exchange for the money offered.
If you want to turn it blue, concentrate your efforts whereit will do the most good and that is where the problems are most obvious. Here in Ohio 47 percent for for a democrat for the House and 51 percent voted for a republican. Yet we have 4 democrats and 12 republicans elected due to Gerrymandering primarily. We are now organizing to fight this in Ohio which could possibly yield in all likelihood at least 3 or 4 more democrats in the House. This would be more likely a bigger pickup than campaigning hard for the party. if you are willing to help us, let us know. Speak to everyone loud and clear about this and when we get this on the ballot , those of you in safe democratic districts or safe republican districts should come and help us canvass and make phone calls. We are doing this because stopping Gerrymandering is the American thing to do and look what failure to stop it is doing now to the country.

10. I done did that scotus march
lib ftr: I'm wondering if there should be a march on the Supreme Court? .. Or a message sent over and over along the line of "Racists don't belong on the Supreme Court
I already done did that once, after the bush/gore decision in winter 2000; went to DC (back to DC I was born there), & took part in 'voters march' where we protested scalia's decision to stop the recount, & subsequent selection of gwbush, hail to the thief.
We marched from the white house to the capitol (about a mile), down pennsy ave & constitution ave maybe, monument looming over us, & then got to supreme court (just behind capitol bldg) & marched couple times around it (not that big actually) chanting 'shame on the court, shame on the court' a hundred times, but nobody that I saw looked out, I doubt any of the justices were even there. Chanting around a graveyard.
Didn't do any good whatsoever. Maybe made a ten second newsreel that evening & next morning in DC area which likely made watching republicans giggle with glee, and we weren't that large a group anyway, maybe a thousand - but a lot of passing cars honked their horns a lot to lift our spirits on the 'avenues'.
You'd need get the march to 50,000 or so, but the justices wouldn't be there they'd be 'evacuated for their own safety', & right & limbaugh would spin it as 'insurrectionist' like the pigs they are.
PS: I carried my own homemade sign 'we hold the supreme court5, in contempt'.
think we should and demand Scalia resign. He is not an objective jurist. Thomas and Roberts should go too but Scalia has openly admitted racism with his own words.
Won't work either, scalia will likely try to make it to 2017 & he can't be dismissed unless he becomes incapacitated due infirmity etc.. the better idea is to impeach thomas if that's possible, he's had so many conflicts of interest, what with his white bimbo wife & her associations with far right groups.
I think a far better chance to impeach thomas the 'mute', hasn't said a contributing word in deliberations on scotus for 6 years now, clearly intimidated by all that 'high level courtroom stuff' that's going on, he's malingering & shirking his duty, as well as the conflicts of interest.
A govt employee anywhere else of his stature would be fired for incompetence or similar.

No it came out as I intended it, bake, & I didn't mean it as any slur in general - presumably against interracial marriage which I have no problem with. Thomas married a white lady who associates with far right groups & ideology, imo is a bimbo, which portrays thomas as an oreo cookie (uh oh, did I do it again?). Well forgive me for thinking, but he is, & I think most blacks would agree.
Thomas is incompetent in his job, he's reached his 'level of incompetency' in the peter principle, no doubt. He hasn't said a word in court deliberations for 6 years now, likely cowered by the other justices opinions, & is setting new records for silence each passing day. He is scalia's puppet, voting as scalia does & aping his reasoning... I don't care for scalia, thomas nor alito.
Scalia has tho, with his 'voting rights' opinions of late, convinced me there is a god. At least one in human form who considers himself one.

14. Part of the problem is that the Solicitor General didn't make the case about deference very strongly
The question before the court isn't whether or not Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act is needed to protect the voting rights of minorities. It's about whether or not Section 2 of the 15th Amendment gives congress the right to determine whether or not Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act is needed to protect the voting rights of minorities.
But instead of discussing that, the Solicitor General played right into Scalia and Roberts' stupid questions about whether or not southerners are more racist than northerners. Whether they are or not is irrelevant. Section 5 should stand because congress has the constitutional authority to enact it, or it should be struck down because they do not. And IMO the answer is very much the former. The framers of the 15th amendment included Section 2 for a reason.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 27/8/2014 (1062 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Sunny and warm: That's the forecast now for the next few days.
Environment Canada says that today will be mainly sunny, with a high of 25ºC, although they expect a bit of a southwest breeze to pick up late this afternoon.
Clear skies will continue tonight, with a few clouds before morning. Winds will die down, and temperatures will drop to about 12ºC.
Tomorrow will be mainly sunny, with a high of 27ºC, although clouds are expected in the evening, with a 60 per cent chance of showers late in the evening and possibly a thunderstorm.
Friday will see a mix of sun and cloud, with a high of 23ºC.
Saturday wlll be sunny, again with a high of 23ºC.
Sunday is the exception to the forecast. Rain is expected that day, along with a high of 20ºC.
But it's back to sun for Monday, which is Labour Day. Union parades will have sunny skies and a high of 23ºC for marching in.
Tuesday, at this point, is expected to see a mix of sun and cloud, with a 30 per cent chance of showers, and a high of 20ºC.
The normal high for this time of year is 22ºC; the normal low is 9ºC.
The hottest it's ever been on an Aug. 27 was in 1984, when it was 35.4ºC. The coldest ever was in 1982, when it got down to -2.6ºC.

Even in a time of rapid global news dissemination provided by hundreds of thousands of journalists working around the clock, an observant Dutch blogger can still get a global scoop. How significant a scoop? The true size of China's massive total gold demand!
Just four years ago, Koos Jansen became intrigued by the relationship between gold and money, after reading my Dutch book "Overleef de kredietcrisis." In May 2013, he responded to my tweets about the exploding Asian gold demand, after the dramatic fall in the gold price a month earlier. We were surprised to learn that at the time, no reliable statistics of the total Chinese gold demand were available in the English language.
It did appear, however, that the Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE), the Chinese counterpart of the COMEX, played a crucial role in the Chinese gold trade. Only the goldminerpulse.com website kept track of the ever increasing physical gold deliveries at the SGE, as it monitored the trade on the gold futures index. The site published the following chart, which showed that the total physical delivery had become almost as large as the total world mine production. I used the chart for our annual shareholder meeting, in April 2013.
Koos decided to dig deeper into the matter after a discussion about the accuracy of this data had arisen on Twitter. He was pointed to the differences between the English and the Chinese websites of the SGE by a Chinese person with knowledge of the matter. Koos decided to call the SGE for clarification. Sound, classic journalism. After intensive research, he came to a new understanding of the Chinese physical gold demand.
It transpired that all Chinese gold imports and domestic mine production must initially be sold through the SGE. The correct figures of how much gold is actually physically withdrawn from the SGE vaults are only published on the Chinese website of the SGE. Through his tweets this information quickly spread to thousands of followers. He soon followed up with a weekly analysis of the gold imports through his blog www.ingoldwetrust.ch.
In my previous blog titled 'Chinese Physical Gold Deliveries Match World Gold Production' (June 2013) Koos research convinced me to predict;
Annualized, we can expect total physical deliveries from the SGE to amount to at least 2,000 tons this year.
More and more insiders began to notice that it wasn't Reuters or Bloomberg that was making the best analysis of Chinese gold demand, but it was done by Koos Jansen. His charts showing that China's gold demand was exploding whilst the price was dropping precipitously, were increasingly seen as evidence of a possible market manipulation.
Canadian billionaire and gold expert Eric Sprott referred to Koos' analyses. They show that the official data published by the World Gold Council (WGC) can't be correct. Data on which banks such as the Dutch ABN/Amro have relied for years. According to the WGC, China's gold demand in 2013 is a mere 1,066 tonnes, whilst Koos shows this is in fact 2,197 tonnes. By comparison, the total world mine production is only 2,900 tonnes.
But his star really began to rise after revealing the Chinese plans for gold in relation to the financial system, by a series of important official speeches which he had translated into English. He discovered the following Chinese statements, which became very important elements of The Big Reset, my latest book.
- 'The state will need to elevate gold to an equal strategic resource as oil and energy, from the whole industry chain to develop industry planning and resource strategies.'
- 'Individual investment demand is an important component of China's gold reserve system; we should encourage individual investment demand for gold.'
- 'Currently, there are more and more people recognizing that the 'gold is useless' story contains too many lies. '
- 'Gold now suffers from a 'smokescreen' designed by the US, which stores 74% of global official gold reserves, to put down other currencies and maintain the US Dollar hegemony.'
- 'For the Fed, it is crucial that the dollar dominates the world and so the Fed will store gold reserves from countries all over the world to control the gold settlement system.'
-'We should 'achieve the highest gold reserves in the shortest time.'
At a gold conference in May of 2014, Bloomberg could no longer ignore the new data so the news agency announced that it was now working on a new model that more accurately describes the Chinese gold market.
Final confirmation of the accuracy of Koos' data came after a translation of a recent speech by SGE President Xu Luode, who confirmed that China's total gold demand in 2013 was indeed more than 2,000 tonnes, double the official figures of the WGC.

"We have made extensive planning to help our bowlers set virus in strong Indian batting and we hope that this planning would work to the best effect," Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) computer wing head Ejaz Sandhu said.
The ice-breaking series commences with the first of five One-day games in the southern port city of Karachi on March 13, three days after India fly into Lahore on their first tour of Pakistan for 15 years.
"Nearly all the cricket teams of the world take advantage of the data based systems but Pakistani players and management are for the first time taking keen interest and almost all the players have gone hi-tech for the series against India," said Sandhu, a PhD in image processing from Toulouse, France.
The series is billed as a contest between a formidable Indian batting boasting of stars like Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Vekatsai Laxman and Sourav Ganguly while Pakistan's bowling armoury has express pacer Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Sami and Shabbir Ahmed.
"Based on the data and video footage of the last two years we have planned tricks on how to get the Indian batsmen out through their weak points and habitual shots," said Sandhu, who has two assistants and Khawar Rabbani as team's computer analyst.
"We know how leading Indian batsmen get out and which are their weak areas but we have disclosed that to only our bowlers," said the expert.
PCB introduced the computer lab and appointed former Pakistan pacer Sikander Bakht as analyst in 2002 but due to lack of interest shown by some of the players and after team's humiliating first round exit in the World Cup, the lab was shut down and the analyst removed.
But Sandhu insists all the players now know how to use the laptop computers.
"Yousuf Youhana takes the most interest and has taken his one year data to improve on his batting, pacer Mohammad Sami is keen on overcoming his tendency of bowling no-balls and wides while Shoaib Akhtar is interested in getting more and more information," said Sandhu.
"Coach Javed Miandad is so supportive for this system and urges the players to get this help as much as they could." The expert said not only Indian batting but his team has also analyzed Indian bowling.
Pakistan team manager Haroon Rasheed said the use of computer is more effective in improving team's own performance rather than targeting opponent's weaknesses.
"Pakistani players are using computer system to improve their own performance rather than trying to find chinks in our opponents' armoury," said Rasheed, a former Pakistan batsman.
India arrives in Pakistan on March 10 for a five-match One-day and three-match Test series.The first One-day International is scheduled for Karachi on March 13.

Weapons for White Against the King's Indian and Grunfeld
Grandmaster Damian Lemos presents a repertoire for White against both the King's Indian and Grünfeld defences. Many players struggle to find suitable lines to challenge these two popular and dynamic openings, or find the masses of theory in the main lines difficult to digest. Lemos solves this perennial problem by advocating a solid system of development based on the fianchetto system, where understanding ideas is more important than move memorization.

Most of us now know that the migratory monarchs are in danger. A December 2013 census confirms the smallest population ever in the overwintering forests of central Mexico. Only seven small colonies were located, with coverage of 0.67 hectares, compared to more than 18 hectares of wintering adults measured in 1996. This drop is precipitous and disastrous for the species. According to monarch specialist Chip Taylor, director of Monarch Watch in Kansas, the current rate of decline will result in monarchs losing genetic viability in only a year or two. Monarchs are symbolic of all pollinators, including honeybees and native moths, which also are suffering from environmental change and serious population decreases.
How Can We Help?
We know now that it is time to help the monarch and the honey bee. All of our pollinators are at risk from the environmental changes that have swept away their worlds. For Earth Day this year, St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay set the goal of creating 250 butterfly gardens to celebrate the city's 250th anniversary. He called on city residents to plant their own butterfly spaces and to participate in community gardens to improve the monarch's access to nectar and egg-laying milkweeds. Wildflower-rich monarch gardens will help to feed all of our pollinators, as well as bring these magical, fluttering creatures into our parks and public spaces.
St. Louis County residents also must do their part to rescue this species. My garden currently has three milkweed species and dozens of native wildflowers blooming from April to frost. Monarchs rarely arrive here in St. Louis before May, but the last generation lingers well into the autumn. To be most helpful now, select fall-blooming nectar plants to add to your perennial border. In a recent conversation with Ellen Barredo of Bowood Farms in the Central West End, she noted that while they currently have stock in Asclepias, the new initiative has created huge demand for milkweeds and they will likely sell out completely. Most wholesalers of Asclepias seeds were sold out months ago as public awareness to the plight of monarchs has increased. But monarchs need more than just milkweeds! They feed on nectar from a wide variety of plants. They will need a floral restaurant on their long journey back to Mexico in the fall.
If you have more than just a border garden, consider establishing a milkweed zone with some of the more attractive native species. Missouri is host to 17 Asclepias species, many of them quite showy. The common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) is not the perfect companion for rosemary and tea roses. Considered 'weedy,' most farmers have been happy to eradicate it from their fields and gardeners would never plant it in the first place. We did not understand the consequences of the loss of common milkweed to monarch breeding: It is their primary nursery plant. Fortunately, many other milkweeds may serve as host and fit handsomely into our gardening plans.
My mother grew butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa) in a sunny border, with its bright tangerine-orange flower clusters and white, milky sap common to all of the plants in this genus. The cultivar 'Hello Yellow' offers a clear, bright yellow blossom that is easier to combine with other flowers in a more subtle color palette. Swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata) does not actually require a swamp, but is perfect for pond-side plantings and rain gardens. It will even grow on drier areas despite its name. The wild form has rose flowers, with a pink cultivar named 'Cinderella' and a white selection called 'Ice Ballet.' One non-native milkweed commonly grown here is the blood flower (Asclepias curassavica). It is from South American and as such it is not hardy but performs well as an annual for terrace pots and garden borders. An award-winner, blood flower has earned the rank of Plant of Merit at the Missouri Botanical Garden.
If you have a lot of acreage, steep slopes or waste areas, converting them to butterfly habitat would serve our pollinators well. Once you establish your nectar garden or milkweed reserve, register it online at Monarch Watch, monarchwatch.org, and gain certification for your site. Wouldn't it be lovely for St. Louis to have dozens of new entries to show our commitment to this beautiful and graceful species?
Perfect Natives for Your Prairie
By now, most of the milkweeds will be sold out for the year. So if you want to help the migrating monarchs make it back south, but would like something more novel than black-eyed susans, try some of these easy-to-grow, drought- and heat-tolerant Midwest natives. Most are deer-resistant and reliable, well suited to larger natural areas and attractive in wildflower gardens. Our top 10:
1. Blazingstar (Liatris spp.) – striking purple spikes in mid-to-late summer
2. Blue star (Amsonia tabernaemontana) – pale, sky-blue flowers on a semi-shrub form
3. Boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum) – white flowered, common at the edge of woods and prairies
4. Cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis) – brilliant scarlet spires, good for damp locations and rain gardens
5. Goldenrod (Solidago speciosa) – plant on banks where you want it to spread—it will…
6. Letterman's ironweed (Vernonia lettermannii) – compact late-bloomer with deep purple flowers
7. Gray-headed coneflower (Ratibida pinnata) – dainty yet tough, with falling yellow petals and dark cone
8. New England aster (Symphyotricum novae-angliae, formerly Aster) – queen of the autumn prairie
9. Showy beardtongue (Penstemon spp.) – very floriferous and tolerates dry, rocky conditions
10. Wild bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) – summer bloom produces lots of nectar

Post subject: Amazon Responds to Music Industry Concerns Over Cloud Drive:
This post is part of our ReadWriteCloud channel, which is dedicated to covering virtualization and cloud computing. The channel is sponsored by Intel and VMware. Read the case study about how IBM helped one client solved its server sprawl problems.
The launch of Amazon's Cloud Drive may not have seemed like an innovative move as more consumers are opting to stream rather than download their music. But it was a disruption enough to cause some record labels to bark back at Amazon and chastise the company for not getting their permission to launch a cloud-based storage and music player. Their permission, and of course, their licensing.
But Billboard reports that Amazon has responded to some of these music industry complaints with a letter contending that since the launch of Cloud Drive two weeks ago, that MP3 sales are up.
Infamous for not ever releasing the sales figures to back up these sorts of claims (the same goes for claims about sales of Kindles and e-books, for example), Amazon doesn't say how much sales are up. But it insists that the new cloud-based storage will help, not hurt the industry.

Lightning and a subsequent fireball Monday night destroyed a 62-foot-tall "King of Kings" statue of Jesus with arms stretched toward the skies, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
The only thing visible this morning is the charred frame of the plastic foam and fiberglass statue, the newspaper says, citing police in Monroe, Ohio.
"It burned to the ground. The whole statue is gone," said Kim Peace, a police dispatcher.
"Touchdown Jesus," as it is known locally because of the outstretched arms, has been a Butler County landmark along I-75 since it was erected in 2004 outside Solid Rock Church.
The Enquirer carried on its website a YouTube video, below, of the statue aflame, albeit accompanied by an offbeat soundtrack.

Colt McCoy's Heisman hopes could rest on the outcome of Saturday's game between Texas and Oklahoma State.
It's really his last chance to make a positive impression on Heisman voters, as the rest of the Longhorns' schedule contains no games of national interest (save the Big 12 title game, if Texas makes it).
McCoy is coming off a good outing against Missouri, so he can create a sense of momentum by turning in a fine performance against the Cowboys.
And with Mark Ingram sitting out with a bye and Jimmy Clausen playing a team of little import, he'll have the full attention of Heisman voters.
If he plays really well and leads Texas to a win over Oklahoma State, all he has to do is finish strong against a weak schedule to win the Heisman. He'll be a senior quarterback on an undefeated team that is headed for the BCS title game. His stats won't be out of this world, but they'll be considered Heisman worthy, especially in the context of this season.
But if he doesn't play well on Saturday, I think his Heisman hopes fade considerably. The race will open up even further and some other names will be in position to make a late-season run.Powered by Sidelines

Lloyds Banking Group PLC has no plans to overhaul its pay policy for senior staff in the foreseeable future, the part state-owned British bank said on Monday, countering a press report it might ditch annual bonuses for executives.
"We keep our remuneration plans under review at all times but have no current plans to change our structures and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future," a spokeswoman said.
The Financial Times had reported that Lloyds was examining whether to scrap annual bonuses for executives and extend longer-term incentives to up to 10 years.
Lloyds chief executive Antonio Horta-Osorio recently called for a radical change within the banking industry, saying it must break with the culture of the past in order to restore the trust of customers.
In a speech to the CBI Scotland Annual Dinner last month, Mr. Horta-Osorio said Lloyds was committed to ensuring pay is increasingly linked to the long-term performance of the bank.
Lloyds' top-earning executive was paid £2.8-million ($4.5-million) in 2011 and Mr. Horta-Osorio could receive almost 10 million shares under this year's incentive plan.Report Typo/Error

Ok, guys -- my just-over-one-year-old gsp is developing a horrible habit. He started doing it about two weeks ago for some reason (maybe got scratched by bird on retrieve). He is kill-biting the birds -- I can hear the quail's breastbone breaking!!! I have heard several people I know tell me the simplist solution is to force-fetch them. Is this the case? If so, can you guys offer suggestions as to who/what program works best? Rommel, my dog, is very mild-mannered (sometimes timid). Anyway, any information you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, guys.

Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio Cologne for Men
6 Recommendations
revolutionarygirl's recommendation
A resolutely masculine fragrance born from the sea, the sun, the earth, and the breeze of a Mediterranean island. Transparent, aromatic, and woody in nature Aqua Di Gio Pour Homme is a contemporary expression of masculinity, in an aura of marine notes, fruits, herbs, and woods. -- or so Sephora says. Alls I know is that my brother, a paragon of masculinity, uses it.
My Collections:
AGD's recommendation
by far one of the sexiest scents for men. and immediate pants dropper.
My Collections:
shoewhore89's recommendation
It is so sexy! it really just smells incredible!
My Collections:
jordanelwell's recommendation
sweetly masculine.
perfumeista's recommendation
acqua di gio smells so nice on men
ShawnT's recommendation
Acqua Di Gio is masculine and bold. A combination of elements from the Mediterranean island makes another great scent from Giorgio Armani.

National Review put together a symposium on "lessons learned" following the 2012 election. Here was my contribution:
It's virtually impossible to construct a conservative political majority out of a liberal culture. Thus – paraphrasing Daenerys Targaryen from George RR Martin's outstanding Game of Thrones books – to go forward, we must go back. We must go back to the hard work of rebuilding our culture. Can conservatives truly hope to prevail if we can't arrest the growth of illegitimacy and the decline of marriage? Or if we leave the education of our children to those who reject and scorn conservative values? Or if the entire pop culture outside the conservative cocoon reinforces that scorn?
Even a singular political talent like Ronald Reagan would have difficulty winning in our current cultural environment. Yet conforming is not an option. Conservatives should reject any political movement that responds to negative cultural changes simply by making peace with that change and becoming merely a slightly-less malign cultural force.
In essence, we must become a missionary force in our own culture. We can't outsource cultural transformation to even the most charismatic politician. Our liberal friends don't read our websites, watch our television, or listen to our radio, but perhaps they'll listen to the neighbor who brought them a hot meal when their mother was sick, or to the co-worker who stayed late to help them meet an urgent deadline.
At the risk of lurching from geekery (the Game of Thrones reference, above), to the trite, I'm reminded of the somewhat silly, yet also profound, "Southwest [Airlines] Way" – where employees are asked to demonstrate a warrior spirit, servant's heart, and fun-loving attitude. In true conservative spirit, we can learn a lot from the culture of one of America's most successful businesses. After all, as Ronald Reagan understands better than anyone, there's no warrior quite as effective as the happy warrior.

Hi Dave,
I'm about to get away from my computer for the morning, so I'll just mention
a few things.
My HUTCHINSON ancestors were in Winchester, MA from 1600's to early 1900's
(most before Winchester became town). They had a very large farm
bordering on Arlington (which also had not yet become a town with that
name). The farm eventually became 2 adjoining farms on both sides of a
street. And it was the late 1800's when the families became "land rich
and money poor." When the couple on the one side died (my ancestors)
around 1890's, their adult son and daughter sold off that farm -- to an
IRWIN family.
I did a little investigating last year, and it seems 2 IRWIN brothers from
Arlington moved to Winchester; one buying that farm, and one buying a small
piece of the farm across the street. Both had large families so around
the very early 1900's there were lots of IRWIN kids running around that
My parents moved into the other farmhouse in the 1940's, which had been
inherited by my great-grandmother. And, in the 1940's I played with 2? of
the IRWIN grandchildren.
I posted tidbits of the IRWIN family information on either the MA List or
the MAMiddle List last fall.

I am in my late 30's and I am bothered by the skin between my neck and chin and would like a more youthful look I have read a lot about trampoline lift and full neck lift as well as a hin implant and lipo. There is sagging skin between my chin and neck and it is only going to get worse. The Trampoline lift reviews are not making me feel confident in the procedure so Im not confident that shhould even be a consideration. What would be the best procedure for the sagging skin between the neck and chin?

Options for improving loose neck skin in the younger patient
Options for loose neck skin in the younger patient -
The lax skin in your upper neck can be approached directly by a less invasive facelift in the miniface lift category The least invasive would be a mini-facelift. My own personal preference and in my hands the one with the least invasive approach is a Lite Lift which is performed in my office under local anesthesia with some oral sedation without the need for IV sedation or general anesthesia

Neck Contour in your 30's
Based on your photos it seems your neck contour problem is caused by some early visible platysma muscle bands. These can be tightened from a small incision just under the chin or an incision behing the ears, which would also allow tightening of the neck skin. Be aware that someone with minimal body fat and a thin neck may always tend to have visibility of muscle fibers in the neck. Also, the submandibular salivary glands under the jaw on each side can often show as a rounded fullness in thin necks. The trampoline lift is one of a few new minimally invasive procedures to tighten the muscles under the chin. Long term results are not really available as yet. Your best choice will depend on your actual anatomy, and your surgeon can discuss all possible options after a thorough examination and conversation about your goals.
Correcting Early Age-Related Skin Changes in the Neck: Consider Botox
For many women, the first signs of significant facial/neck aging are the skin changes between the chin and voicebox area. Folds of skin and bands may appear.
What is actually happening to many patients in this age range is that the platysma muscle is forming bands or cords and pulling the skin down with the muscle. This makes it look like the skin is loose when it often is not.
I prefer to treat young patients with isolated early neck bands with Botox or Dysport. When injected along the bands, patients often note dramatic improvement in neck appearance and can avoid surgery. This procedure takes just a few minutes and costs only a few hundred dollars. Maintenance is required, but the results are quite good!
If you are a young person with good skin and neck bands, consider trying this non-surgical approach first!
Treatment of Lines in the Neck in Someone in Their 30"s
There are a number of methods of treating bands in the neck in someone your age. Yours appear to be caused by the platysma muscle, the superficial muscle of the neck. They can be ameliorated by pulling the muscle back up under the ear if the ligament that holds the muscle suspended has stretched. This requires a modified mini-facelift. If the bands are from separation of the muscles centrally, then a simple undermining of the central neck to separate the muscle from the skin and suturing the muscles together will solve the problem. You have no excess fat on your neck and, therefore, liposuction will not solve your problem. There is also no machine yet developed that will tighten this muscle for more than a very short time. From your pictures, your chin appears adequate. Therefore, you would not want to do anything to it. See a Plastic Surgeon with significant experience in facial and neck rejuvenation.
Less is More
From the photos you sent, your major issue appears to be platysmal bands and not much in the way of loose skin. Have you tried Botox for the bands?
A non-surgical skin tightening may help whatever loose skin you have. If that is unsuccessful or if you want something more permanent, a minimal necklift such as a MACS-Lift may also be something to consider for the loose skin. At the same time a suturing of the bands could be done.
Best of success!
Neck lift in late 30's
There are essentially 3 options for treatment of the aging neck:
- Facelift
- Necklift/Minilift
- Neck Liposuction
Each has advantages and disadvantages and can be performed in a variety of nuanced ways. There are few people that are actually good candidates for neck liposuction alone. My criteria for neck liposuction alone is age under 45 years and neck fullness from extra fat (not just skin laxity). My patients also wear a face-neck support garment following surgery for 4 weeks.
The most common procedure in your age group is a Necklift. This is essentially a "mini" facelift in that less skin elevation is performed. Liposuction of the neck is a standard part of this surgery as well (no extra charge). It must be emphasized that there is no comparison to the results from a Facelift procedure. The Necklift is designed for treatment of fairly mild neck complaints, and does a good job in suitable patients. If you are not a suitable candidate, you may be disappointed with the limited results.
The Best Neck Procedure For Someone in Their 30's With Sagging Skin
There are many options available to you from excising a small amount of skin from just underneath the chin, liposuction of the neck, placement of a chin implant, or some version of a neck lift. The best option requires an appointment and consultation with a board certified surgeon. Given the variety of options, seeing someone who does computer imaging may be helpful in that they could show you the array of results that each procedure might provide. Best of luck.
Which Procedure is Best for my Neck?
I have performed Face Lifts and Neck Lifts for 25 years and you are correct...full Neck Lifts are very invasive, especially in a 30 year old. The loose skin, of the neck, can be reduced by excising an ellipse of skin just below the chin. Excess fat can be removed using micro-liposuction and if the chin is weak, a Chin Implant can create aesthetic balance and improvement to the entire lower face. I perform many minimal incision, minimally invasive Face and neck Lifts (Celebrity Face Lift). This approach is far less invasive and would seem more in line with a 30 year old's needs aesthetically. Hope this helps.

What did he do?
John Ray laid the foundations of botany and zoology in Britain.
The botanical terms petal and pollen were first used by Ray, and he was the first botanist to distinguish between monocotyledons and dicotyledons. Rays Historia Plantarum was the first textbook of modern botany.
In systematic classification he had no successor until Linnaeus.
In his efforts to understand plant and animal form and behaviour he was ahead of Linnaeus and there was no successor to Ray until the 19th century.
Later scientists recognised his significance very clearly.
Linnean Society
Sir James Smith (1759-1828), founder of the Linnean Society lauded Ray as:
our immortal naturalist, the most accurate in observation, the most philosophical in contemplation, and the most faithful in description of all the botanists of his own or perhaps any other time.
A visit by the Linnean Society to Rays grave. [24K]
Gilbert White of Selborne
The famous 18th century naturalist wrote:
Foreign systematics are, I observe, much too vague in their specific differences; which are almost universally constituted by one or two particular marks, the rest of the description running in general terms. But our countryman, the excellent Mr Ray, is the only describer who conveys some precise idea in every term or word, maintaining his superiority over his followers and imitators in spite of the advantage of fresh discoveries and modern information.
Baron Cuvier
In his Biographie Universelle (Paris, 1843) Cuvier wrote of John Ray:
He displayed the rare talent to bring scattered observations into one point of view. Here may be found the principal discoveries made by Caesalpinus, Columna, Grew, Malpighi and Jungius in addition to those made by Ray himself; and in this way resulted the most complete treatise which had yet appeared on vegetation in general. Although this work may not have been very frequently quoted, yet it is through it that the ideas of these authors were made common in science. These [Rays] writings formed an epoch in the history of botany.
Baron Cuvier [29K]
The Ray Society
The bibliographer Keynes wrote:
Since the founding of the Ray Society in 1844 Ray has been recognised as the Father of English Botany, and has often been called The English Linnaeus. Indeed, it is the opinion of some botanists that he was more of an original than Linnaeus, being the Great Exemplar as a field naturalist as well as being a classifier and cataloguer...
Ray crowned Prince of Biology, 19th century [13K]
The continuing work of the Ray Society
Obstacles overcome by John Ray
Ray had no salary as a scientist, but he was supported by gentlemen interested in science, who came together in the newly formed Royal Society.
He lost his access to Cambridge libraries, and lamented his distance from the Botanic gardens being established in London, but he built up a library in Essex, travelled widely to see plants in their native habitats, and received many samples in the post from Britain, Europe, the Far East, and the Americas.
His field studies made him the most travelled scientist of his century, at a time when travel was hard. The first map of Britain to show roads only appeared in 1675, too late for Ray and his companions, whose expeditions began in 1650.

SOME of the first celebrations of the Grand Depart of the Tour de France have kicked off with a decidedly fishy event.
Sheep, giant bloomers and shoals of fish were the theme of a family fun day held in Bentham to celebrate both the town's history and North Yorkshire's involvement in the prestigious cycle race.
"It was a really great day," said Alison Clough, spokesman for Pioneer Projects, which joined up with Carnival Bentham to put on a fancy dress cycling event and parade through town.
"There must have been 1,000 people either watching or taking part in the parade.It was great to see so many people."
The theme was chosen by residents because of the town's history of silk weaving and the belief that silk from Bentham was used in bloomers worn by Queen Victoria.

a map must still be added ;-))
Due to it's central position with respect to the valley, it offers a very wide panorama, the easiest that you can reach in the area.
You can see the whole central valley mountains, like Emilius, Grivola, and far, Gran Paradiso Group, Rutor Group, after Fallere, left part of the Mont Blanc Group, and, north side, Gran Combin, Mont Velan, Mont Gele', and far, Cervino and part of the Monte Rosa Group.
Getting There
Mont Velan and Gran Combin
To reach the easy top, there are a few routes, both in summer than in winter.
- from Buthier, a village in the Gran San Bernardo Valley.
From Italy: exit Aosta East of the Motorway, bring the Gran San Bernardo way, after the galleries, a few kilometers far from Aosta town, there is the village of Gignod; a few hundreds meters far from the village, left side, indication for Buthier; follow the road till a sign after which is forbidden with the car, and park there.
From Switzerlan, the deviation for Buthier is right side, a few kilometers after La Clousaz.
- from Thouraz.
Exit Aosta East of the Motorway, follow the normal route direction Courmayeur; after Aosta town, you will find Sarre: turn right, direction Ville Sur Sarre, and in Ville Sur Sarre, turn right and follow the sign Thouraz. This is a small new village, a few houses (overthere there is a ranch that rents horses...). The main Touraz village was destryoyed by a landslip that fell down from the Becca France (at your left) which buried the whole village with all it's 600 inhabitants, at 6 of clock of a July morning in the year 1564.
Red TapeNo permits or restrictions.
When To ClimbSummer season: from June to October, even earlier or later, according the season; in winter, from December to March, taking care to the last slopes, very steep.
All around view
North and East: Mont Velan, Gran Combin, the Valpelline, the Central Aosta Valley
West: the highest top is Mont Fallere; behind, left side, the Ruitor Group, right side, part of the Monte Bianco Group
South: Emilius, Grivola, Gran Nomenon and Gran Paradiso Group
CampingsOutside Aosta, along the road that brings to Gran San Bernardo Pass, close to Buthier, there is a camping area.
Miscellaneous InfoThe 16 of August, each year, a procession starts night time, around midnight, from 3 villages in the area, and arrives to the top, where there is a messe; this is due to a vote of the communities in the 16 century, when they ask to God to be preserved form the pestilence.

Fantasy by Jay Skurski: Woodhead, Blount among bye-week best bets
Week Five of the fantasy football season means we've reached the portion of the schedule where bye weeks become problematic.
Headlining the list of fantasy players sitting out this week are Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson, Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III and Redskins running back Alfred Morris. Tampa Bay receivers Vincent Jackson and Mike Williams would usually make that list, but the change at quarterback from Josh Freeman to Mike Glennon puts the usefulness of both of them in question.
The other team off this weekend, Pittsburgh, does not have a fantasy player in the top 30 in scoring (in standard ESPN leagues), although receiver Antonio Brown is sixth at his position.
The list of popular bye-week replacements begins with San Diego's Danny Woodhead. The diminutive Chargers running back has 22 catches this season out of the backfield, serving as quarterback Philip Rivers' safety valve. Woodhead had his first two touchdowns of the season last week against the Dallas Cowboys. He doesn't offer much by way of rushing yards (only 90 this season), but is averaging 4.7 yards per carry and his receiving ability is valuable, especially in points-per-reception leagues, and makes him a good flex play.
The running back position has been pretty well picked through at this point in the season, but New England's LeGarrette Blount is an intriguing add in deeper leagues. Blount is part of a rotation with the Patriots, but he has the team's only rushing touchdown of the season. He also has 25 carries the past two weeks, and scored on a 47-yard run in Week Four.
Another option to consider in deeper leagues is Green Bay running back Johnathan Franklin. He will back up Eddie Lacy on Sunday against Detroit, but Franklin ran 13 times for 103 yards and a touchdown against a tough Cincinnati defense in the Packers' last game in Week Three in place of James Starks. With Starks expected to miss the game Sunday, Franklin should see at least a handful of carries in relief of Lacy.
Best to wait
There are two strategies to employ when drafting a quarterback in fantasy football: Take an "elite" one in the first couple of rounds, or wait until the middle of the draft to find a guy.
Count me in the latter category, for the following reason. Of the top 20 quarterbacks in ESPN leagues, at least five of them – San Diego's Rivers, Kansas City's Alex Smith, St. Louis' Sam Bradford, Tennessee's Jake Locker and Buffalo's EJ Manuel – were available in the very late rounds, or weren't drafted at all. Those quarterbacks are ahead of the likes of San Francisco's Colin Kaepernick and the New York Giants' Eli Manning, both of whom went much higher. Rivers is third in all of fantasy scoring with 88 points, while Smith is 10th with 72. They are outscoring the likes of Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers and New England's Tom Brady, both of whom were picked in the first two rounds of most drafts.
The Peyton effect
Peyton Manning's first month of the fantasy season was nothing short of incredible. Manning has 152 fantasy points in CBS Sports leagues – 41 more than any other player – on the strength of 16 touchdown passes and 1,470 yards. He's found a way to make all three of his top receivers – Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker and Wes Welker – reliable fantasy options, and turned tight end Julius Thomas into one of the must-play players at his position.
On top of all that, Manning has even given fantasy life to running back Knowshon Moreno, who was an afterthought heading into the season. Moreno has gotten between 12 and 16 touches in each game of the year, and has scored three times. That type of usage should continue in the high-octane Denver offense.
Chiefs' defense impressing
I'm usually a favorite of playing the matchups when it comes to fantasy defenses. But the Kansas City Chiefs' "D" is playing itself into an every-week starter.
Kansas City has at least 20 fantasy points in three of four games this season and has scored three touchdowns on the defensive side of the ball. The Chiefs haven't allowed an opponent to score more than 16 points and have recorded 12 turnovers, most in the AFC.
The Chiefs also have registered an NFL-high 18 sacks, led by a league-leading 7.5 from linebacker Justin Houston.
What's wrong with A.J.?
Bengals receiver A.J. Green, a top two-round selection in most drafts, has failed to record more than 51 yards receiving in the last three games. Green had a monster Week One – 162 yards and two touchdowns at Chicago – but since then has scored only once and managed just 19 combined fantasy points in ESPN leagues.
His slump, however, shouldn't be a long one. Green leads the NFL with 51 targets, including six in the red zone from quarterback Andy Dalton. As long as he keeps looking Green's way, the numbers will come.
