Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/5/2014 (1166 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
We have criticized the Brandon School Division in this space before for some of its heavy-handed policies and the overly strict implementation of those policies.
They were shockingly tone deaf when it came to making accommodations for a student's smudge ceremony, for example. And they refused to budge on the installation of prison-style door locks at local high schools, despite the fact the vast majority of students are not criminals.
So we thought that, with a couple of potentially controversial issues soon to appear on educational checklists, we would offer our advice to trustees ahead of time — especially as they begin to jockey for possible re-election this fall.
The first issue is whether students should be required to learn about the treaties that govern relationships between Canada's aboriginal and non-aboriginal peoples.
Although many local educators have already been trained in appropriate methods to teach these issues, it's training that is optional. And actually implementing the lessons is also optional.
While the larger issue of aboriginal education — especially funding — remains thorny, we think it's indisputable that students should learn about the legal structure that still governs so much of our country today.
There are innumerable racist beliefs about aboriginal and non-aboriginal relations that could be cleared up with a little education — so let's get started on that educating.
Another issue set to come before school trustees sooner than they may think is that of e-cigarettes.
While workplaces, too, grapple with whether these oil-heating devices qualify as "smoking," students in some places are beginning to latch on to them as drug-delivery mechanisms.
Unlike in the United States, where e-cigarettes are permitted to contain nicotine, Canadian e-cigarettes contain only a smoke-producing oil, and sometimes a flavouring.
The flip side of it being a nicotine-free product is that there aren't barriers to teenage purchase, possession or use of such devices.
And, frankly, if teenagers want to play around with flavoured oil smokes, well, it's not the dumbest thing teenagers have ever done.
The trouble that has cropped up in some jurisdictions comes when crafty marijuana users crack open the harmless oil cartridges and lace them with drugs.
That strips the marijuana of much of its distinctive smell, making it a little bit tougher for teachers and administrators to collar the culprits.
Now, no one wants glassy-eyed students getting high at school. But part of the job of the school system should be to ease students out of a full-supervision childhood and into an adulthood where they will be expected to make their own decisions and to live with the consequences.
Banning e-cigarettes on school property might also risk doing harm as well as good. After all, part of the point of e-cigarettes is that they are safer than the real thing, and that they can be used to help addicted smokers finally quit.
However they get them (and some high school students are of legal age) there are plenty of students who smoke actual real cigarettes. Surely the school division would like to encourage them to quit.
E-cigarettes can help that, so we'd like to head off a zero-tolerance policy before it crops up.
We don't ban water bottles just because you can also put liquor in them.
The Brandon School Division should take the same approach with e-cigarettes.

Because Twitter is a place for rapid-fire public dialogues and all 24 major federal agencies are now using the platform, you might expect lots of conversations about government technology policy to be happening on the site.
They are, but you have to know where to look.
You won't find much interaction in the official agency Twitter feeds, which are mostly press releases and generic announcements. And the personal Twitter accounts of many federal executives are not necessarily social or even active.
But those trends are starting to change, and a handful of media-savvy federal managers are exploring a broader range of ways to use Twitter effectively. The conversations are starting to flow and become truly engaging, and it is exciting to be part of it.
It has taken a couple of years to get to this point. Twitter, where every tweet is public, presents some risks for federal employees.
"Even with a disclaimer in a Twitter biography and indication that these are 'my personal views only,' if he or she is identified as a government worker and tweets something off-color or controversial, then that can rebound to their detriment," said Alex Howard, Gov 2.0 correspondent for O'Reilly Media and a longtime Twitter user who has more than 125,000 followers.
For federal staffers just getting their feet wet on Twitter, it can be daunting. "They are still a little gun-shy about tweeting," said Gadi Ben-Yehuda, social media director at the IBM Center for the Business of Government. "Right now they are not very willing to engage in any controversial dialogue."
Even those who have been on the site for a year or longer might be listening more than tweeting. One example is Todd Park, who became federal chief technology officer in March. He has more than 8,000 followers but has only tweeted about 110 times since October 2010 while CTO at the Health and Human Services Department. David McClure, associate administrator of the General Services Administration's Office of Citizen Services and Innovative Technologies, has 1,300 followers but only 20 tweets.
Sharing, caring and responding
The core appeal of Twitter is the opportunity to discover and interact with people. That means retweeting, asking and answering questions, and commenting. It also means sharing, caring and appreciating a joke or a cute cat photo.
A recent study by Edelman Digital shed light on how one group of federal officials — members of Congress — are using Twitter. While one-half to two-thirds of lawmakers' tweets were work-related, a small but growing number were more social, such as comments on sports teams or links to recipes.
Even humor was not off-limits. The lawmakers "were not afraid to use their official Twitter handles to tweet about fun or irreverent topics," Edelman's report states.
Similarly, a few appointees and career professionals in the executive branch have become standouts on Twitter for being down-to-earth and flashing some wit. One of them is GSA CIO Casey Coleman, who has been recognized by Forbes as one of the top 25 social CIOs. Another is Jeffrey Levy, director of Web communications at the Environmental Protection Agency; his Twitter feed was on Time's list of the 140 best feeds of 2012.
Even Park, who has averaged six tweets a month in the past, has promised to get more active. In April, he tweeted: "Pledge: will seek to at least 5x tweet production yr-over-yr without decrease in tweet quality."
Federal CIO Steven VanRoekel is the latest must-read federal tweeter. With about 3,000 followers, he has only averaged about 20 tweets a month. But he recently ventured into new territory. On April 5, FierceGovernmentIT published a lighthearted article speculating that VanRoekel would make application programming interfaces a key part of his upcoming digital strategy.
Although an unabashed fan of APIs, VanRoekel had not said explicitly that they would be part of his strategy. He responded to the article the day it was published by writing: "API #thereIsaidit #yesitisthesecretsauce."
Yes, he definitely said it, and I predict that his tweet will reverberate around the federal social sphere because it marks a turning point for federal engagement on Twitter.

Twitter, and other social media platforms, are best used for dialogue. Regretfully, government uses it for one-way information updates for topics of interest. The real advantages that are not being leveraged are opportunities for information exchange regarding products and services. Managers should be using Twitter in particular to communicate needs and requirements, and allowing the input from industry as part of market research. You only have 140 characters, so don't expect long commercials. May prove useful to help build requirements through information exchange.

Stocks rose sharply Thursday after Finance Minister Taro Aso's comments about possible currency market intervention pushed down the yen.
The Nikkei 225 average rose 309.25 points, or 2.12 percent, to close at 14,876.41, its best finish since May 22. The Topix gained 14.36 points, or 1.19 percent, and finished at 1,218.55, the highest closing level since Sept. 26.
The TSE opened on a strong note thanks to a recovery in New York stocks overnight. The Dow Jones industrial average closed at a fresh record high on the back of hopes for good yearend sales after U.S. retailers reported upbeat earnings.
Investors also took heart from Japan's gross domestic product data released early in the morning that showed the economy expanded at an annualized 1.9 percent in real terms in July-September. The figure was slightly better than the market's consensus estimate.
In the afternoon, the Nikkei shot up and edged close to the psychologically important 15,000 mark after Aso hinted at the possibility of intervening in the currency market, which dragged down the yen and prompted futures-led buying in the stock market, brokers said.
Expectations grew that the U.S. Federal Reserve's quantitative easing will stay in place for a prolonged period after it was reported that Fed Vice Chairwoman Janet Yellen, in her confirmation hearing Thursday as the successor to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, would note that the U.S. unemployment rate still remains at high levels, brokers said. The text of her testimony was released Wednesday.
But there are mixed views in the market over whether prolonged easing by the Fed would send the dollar lower and put upward pressure on the yen as some fear, said Hiroichi Nishi, equity general manger at SMBC Nikko Securities Inc.
In addition, signs are becoming more clear that the Nikkei is finally breaking out of its recent narrow range and is set to climb higher, he said, citing various factors supporting the market, such as the good supply-demand balance and excess money flowing around global financial markets.
Japanese government bond futures rebounded Thursday, helped by higher U.S. Treasury securities and the day's smooth auction of new five-year government notes.
The lead December contract on 10-year JGBs finished up 0.12 point from Wednesday at 145.02. Volume surged to 26,076 contracts from 20,182.

GTA V hits homes early while Microsoft bans spoiler consoles
Two things are happening this week in the world of Grand Theft Auto 5: one includes Amazon UK sending out copies of the game early, the other includes console banning for users playing and sharing spoilers from the game. Users inside the UK have been seeing their copies of the game for Xbox 360 arrive as early as Saturday, playing them at will (as is their right). Thieves of the game - those picking up the game through early downloads without paying - have been experiencing full console bans from Xbox Live.

Rolling Stone Rocks an Endorsement For Barack Obama
Rolling Stone has a giant crush on Barack Obama. The magazine endorsed Barack Obama. This is the first time in its history it has issued a primary season endorsement. Here's how the ode to Obama begins:
The tides of history are rising higher and faster these days. Read them right and ride them, or be crushed. And then along comes Barack Obama, with the kinds of gifts that appear in politics but once every few generations. There is a sense of dignity, even majesty, about him, and underneath that ease lies a resolute discipline. It's not just that he is eloquent — with that ability to speak both to you and to speak for you — it's that he has a quality of thinking and intellectual and emotional honesty that is extraordinary.
The strong endorsement also calls Hillary Clinton a capable and personable senator, but regrets that her campaign represents everything that makes "us so discouraged about our politics." Check out the entire endorsement tittled "A New Hope." You can grab a hard copy on tomorrow's newsstands.
Does this type of dramatic endorsement impact you? If not, perhaps it still represents a sentiment shared by many Americans.

What is epigenetics you may ask? Well, we have our genes, our genome, the genetic code that has the instructions to make sure we are humans and not oaks. But then we have our phenome, which are the instructions on how those instructions are read and then manifested.
Epigenetics is how Your Genes are Expressed
Imagine if you had a huge cookbook with all the recipes and instructions to make every soufflé possible. All those instructions together would be the soufflé genome. However, you knew some tricks to make an extra-amazing soufflé, like little changes in heat and/or in the timings, so when you went through the instructions, you decide to skip a few steps and add some of your own that you had written in the border of the page. The instructions are the same, but the specific way how those instructions are "carried out" are the phenome, or sometimes called the epigenome. And if you do it right, you make the best soufflé you can possibly make.
For more information on epigenetics please see the article I wrote on this topic.
Positive Epigenetics is Perhaps the Single Most Important Wellness Facet
To some extent, generating positive epigenetics is the most important facet of wellness. We want to create positive epigenetic events, and there ways to this, including using certain herbs like Tulsi, Ginger and Turmeric. Science has recently recognized that Ghee and Butyrate are two of the more positive epigenetic substances, which totally makes sense. One of the ethnopharmacological "heralds" of this in the ancient traditions is when an herb or food is pronounced to radically support longevity. To live a long and healthy life your bodymind has to continually be making positive epigenetic choices to counteract the effect of aging on our genetics.
And my friends, one of the coolest things here is that you pass your epigenome down to your kids! So if you really take care of yourself, you pass a better collection of gene expression to them. Your choices in your life can change your bodymind at the genetic level, but they can help evolve the human species. It is a very sweet gift to give your children.
Only True Ghee is Ghee
When I mention Ghee here, remember, I am referring to 'True Ghee" only, meaning the ghee made in small artisan-like batches by simmering the butter churned from the yogurt or the milk of free-range drug-free cows that consume a diet of organic grass and wild herbs. My friends, there are several examples of "industrial Ghee" on the market in both India and the USA that are simply not Ghee and are not useful for anything that I mention here.
Research Shows that Ghee Supports Positive Epigenetic Changes
One set of researchers have said (paraphrased here because we can't mention anything about disease on per a law called DSHEA enforced by the FDA, so bear with me. Basically I have re-written it in terms of wellness instead of in terms of disease):
To counter the age-related biases and support healthy blood sugar, healthy heart and healthy cellular life/death cycles we must support healthy epigenetic modifications, where accumulation of minute changes in the epigenome over time leads to the maintenance of wellness. Epigenetic changes are influenced by life style and diets. This represents an avenue whereby dietary components could accelerate or prevent age-related diseases through their effects on epigenetic modifications. Dietary components, such as the butyrate in Ghee, sulforaphane in Onion family foods, and the curcumin in Turmeric, have been shown to positively enhance epigenetic changes, and their health benefits are attributed, at least in part, to epigenetic modifications. Given the decades that it takes to accumulate epigenetic changes, it is unlikely that pharmaceuticals could undo epigenetic changes without side effects. Therefore, long term consumption of dietary components that can alter the epigenome could be an attractive means of the maintenance of True Wellness. The goal of this review is to highlight the roles of diets and food components in epigenetic modifications.
It is a great, thorough and free article and I recommend that you download it. They showed how the Butyrate in ghee is an extremely important facet of inducing positive genetic change, especially when taken in the context of a diet that is low in starches, having a low glycemicindex, and high in herbs like Turmeric and Green Tea.1
Intuition plus Tradition plus Western Science Conformation
Epigenetics as a concept may be new to you, but the truth is that there is so much common sense here. You know innately what is going to change your life for the better, and these technical articles are just a confirmation of that. I support you merging your intuition with tradition with Western Science confirmation!
What is Truly Good for You is Good for the Planet
I really love to study what creates positive versions of these changes and what creates negative versions of these changes. Sharing this knowledge is a great way to support 'The People" because invariably what is good for 'The People" is good for 'The Planet."
Thank You and All the Best

HYDERABAD: Police say they have arrested a Muslim legislator in a southern Indian state for making inflammatory speeches against majority Hindus.
Police officer A B Venkateshwar Rao says Akbaruddin Owaisi, was arrested yesterday in Hyderabad, the capital of Andhra Pradesh state.
In speeches three weeks earlier Owaisi reportedly accused police of bias against Muslims, denigrated Hindu gods and said Muslims could teach the rest of the country a lesson.
Owaisi, the leader of Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen, or the Council of the Union of Muslims, left for London after his remarks and returned to India on Monday.
He was arrested after doctors said that hospital tests proved that there were no medical grounds to prevent police from holding him.
Police charged Owaisi with threatening the security of the nation and promoting enmity between Hindus and Muslims.
He faces a possible death sentence if convicted.
Muslims comprise about 14 per cent of India's more than a billion people.
Several cases have been filed against Owaisi for anti-Hindu comments he allegedly made in the speeches. Some of the comments were recorded last month and posted online.
Police have charged him with threatening the security of India and with promoting hostilities between Hindus and Muslims.
Reports said that the authorities in Andhra Pradesh have been criticised for not taking action against Owaisi earlier.

Parotid Gland Enlargement
The salivary glands make saliva and release it into the mouth. There are three pairs of relatively large, major salivary glands, including the parotid glands. They are located in the upper part of each cheek, close to the ear. The duct of each parotid gland empties onto the inside of the cheek, near the molars (back teeth) of the upper jaw. Parotid gland enlargement is not unusual in people with bulimia; the incidence of parotid gland swelling has been reported to occur in 10 to 15 percent of bulimics.
The severity of the parotid gland enlargement is related to the frequency and duration of purging.
Parotid gland enlargement in bulimics may secrete abnormally high levels of amylase, an enzyme that digests carbohydrates. Normally the swollen salivary glands that give the appearance of "chipmunk-like cheeks" go down when the binge purging behavior ceases. It usually takes several weeks to see a change. The swelling may continue for months, and in rare cases, may be permanent.

Ratings for Dr. Elaine Kung
I was unpleasantly surprised that a medical 'professional' with such high credentials would behave in such a rude, condescending, unprofessional manner. Kung has no bedside manners, especially with young children. I took my son there as per our pediatricians suggestion to check out his extreme eczema condition. When we (my less than 18 month old son & I) arrived in her office, she didn't have gloves on, told me to assist in holding his penis and pushing back the foreskin so she could assess his condition (from a standing distance). I'm not looking to be buddy buddy with a doctor, however, I was an extremely worried mother who wanted to help her child. She also repeatedly spoke to my son as if he was 3 or older (You're so noisy and loud, why are you behaving like that, no one is hurting you, you need to quiet down). I can't even refer to her as a Dr. in this review because I don't feel she's earned it (as a human being, not whether she has the degrees to prove it)!
I initially called Dr. Kung's practice to recieve my 1st appt.with her colleague Dr. Cunningham but seeing that Dr. C was totally booked for weeks and I was stressing myself out even more w/my sudden breakouts a staff member recommended Dr.Kung.So I scheduled..First let me say Dr. Kung was totally professional,confident & quiok to the point.She wasn't cheery,etc.but who cares?she KNEW how to SOLVE the problem.She does ask you if you have questions but will kinda rush you out of the office if she's busy. You just gotta find a way to keep talking if you have concerns and she'll listen.I'm Black/Latino & was concerned w/ finding a DR.who was extremely familiar with ethnic skin.She truly is.I told her what I was using &she recommended items based on skin,that were inexpensive bcuz she knew i had no insurance.She even took $ off bcuz of no insurance.She looked at my skin 30 seconds &told her asst.to write my script.I must admit she was so quick it made me a skeptic.6mnths since & pleased!
Dr. Kung is knowledgeable and friendly. She is current on cosmetic fillers and skin care. Great listening skills, does not try and push anything on you. Calm and friendly demeanor.
Very nice doctor. She is young and corky but knows her stuff. She didnt make me feel like i was a crazy person and the reasoning for my issues was stress like some others made me feel. She gave me hope and helped me with my scalp biopsy and some skin spots I had. The staff is pretty much nice and helpful for the exception of maybe one or two who dont work for Dr. Kung.

Beautiful Hotel. Grounds are lovely, very relaxing. Hotel is very difficult to find, also is quite remote, look to eat in the Hotel Restaurant if you stay there.
A beautiful hotel with great rooms and our reception could not have been bettered. The hotel is not easy to find and to get to it from Viveiro means travelling on some extremely narrow country roads.
Very comfortable and a histyoric feel. no
Like they say themselves - it is like a small Parador :- )) Very small bed for 2 people (1,20 m Wide)
Liked pool and beautiful gardens. Excellent dinner and breakfast. Rude uncommunicative receptionist compensated for by delightful other staff.
The place The restaurant
Very pleasant grounds; helpful staff; good if rather expensive food; good lounges and furnishings in general areas and overall character. Well-stocked library. Interesting house and location with pleasing atmosphere. Room pokey, with the frequently-found snag of lack of horizontal surfaces! wld not have been very comfortable for a longer stay. No reading lamp to one bed making reading after the other person was asleep very difficult. A bit noisy due to close proximity of other rooms and creaky floors and wardrobes.
the location, the place, the people, the food
I like the areas around the hotel, swimmingpool, and the garden The food in the resturent should be improved a lot
hotel facilities were good,the room was clean ,view from room was poor good breakfast
The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. Dinner was outstanding. Breakfast was excellent. A very good base for exploring this stunning area. Dinner was far too large!
A bit of luxury during my tour of Spain. Lovely quiet position Just the town of Viveiro, very dissapointing for a tourist, only worth one day.
Hotel in relaxing atmosphere and very close to my business meeting. Breakfast buffet was to poor. To less parking area. To poor sound insulation. Very difficult to find - no signs. The bed is to uncomfortable - to hard.
very comfy, clean ,food good value for money,staff very friendly a bit hard to find could have better signs leaving viverio we used sat nav and it took us to some apartments with the same name but that could be our mistake so watch out for this.
Used it as a base for looking around the area Position poor
Great hotel ! clean ,comfortable spacious room , great view from my window :) good food , friendly , cheerful and helpful staff . Top marks all round .
Beautiful location - great for a summer break. Lovely warm pool. Good restaurant.
Its a great and homely place. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. They do a very nice traditional drink ceremony in the evening. We didn't have dinner there but the owner offered us a piece of their flan after we got back from dinner and it was absolutely delicious. We regretted not having dinner there.
Calm and very well decorated, has beautiful surroundings (the Sargadelos ceramic factory and exposition and the Passeo dos Namorados are a must see), the food is excellent... most of all, the staff makes you fell just like in your home :-)
As the hotel is in a fairly remote location the availabilty of a prix fixe dinner was a blessing and proved to be good quality and excellent value. Also a very good breakfast. Our room was in the roof so the sloping ceilings made movement around the room and bathroom a little difficult.
Beautiful house in an idyllic location. Interior of the house an absolute delight. Attentive owner with excellent recommendations about what to do. Clean warm ample sized room and bathroom. Great breakfast. Delightful.
Although they spoke little English the owners of this family run hotel were excellent, helpful and very obliging. Even gave us a hand drawn map to make finding our way in and out of the area easier. The food was outstanding, perhaps the best we had in all of our two weeks in Northern Spain (and we did have very good food in a number of places). A homely atmosphere almost like staying at best friends house, they even showed us all the rooms and asked if we would like to choose which bedroom we wanted (a benefit of arriving early, but few hotels would be so obliging). Having to leave!
Wonderful, calm location. Great hospitality and very good breakfasts.
Diner is good, rooms are nice, quiet location Rooms are very noisy. You can here everything, foodsteps, tv, talking, etc. Didn't get any sleep.
friendly staff and excellent food. A few minutes from the beach and semi-rural setting Not really rural now - it is surrounded by hundreds of new-build bungalows and holiday homes. In August everywhere - restaurants, beaches, are bursting with tourists - unbelievable!
An excellent choice, friendly and helpful staff, breakfast and diners were superb. A pity that this delightful place is surrounded by empty new builds. One could hear the noise from the adjoining bathrooms.....
It was an facility and an amazing location. The rooms were well kept, clean, romantic, spacious, and gorgeous. The restaurant was amazing...the staff made you feel like one of the family. Rent a bike and ride the coast line, they will lend them to you free of charge! NOTHING!
Loved the ethos of the place and the friendliness and flexibilty of the staff. We liked the values that underpin Casa do Merlo: the honour bar, the can-do approach, the love of good food, the desire to make the stay as nice as possible in a relaxing way.
We were lucky enough to have the family room which, quite honestly, is the best room we've ever stayed in, and we do like our hotels to be good. It was spacious with quality fittings. Our children loved having their own space on the mezzanine floor, it was like their own room. The staff were incredibly friendly and put on a wonderful breakfast. We were the only guests in the hotel at the time (out of season) and were trusted with the whole place to ourselves, so we used the lounge to watch our own dvds. The grounds were beautiful, neat, and very Spanish - surrounded by wonderful Bonsai trees. The nearby beaches are stunning. I quite honestly can't rate this place highly enough and would most certainly stay there again ++++++++++++++++
Short walk to quiet beaches and easy driving access to larger resorts or nice countryside. Comfortable and spotlessly clean room.
We had the place to ourselves - literally overnight. Lovely old house, beautifully converted and decorated with no expense spared. Very friendly and helpful staff (owner's son?) who advised us on where to eat. Actually his advice was not great; he advised against a local restaurant - one of only two open, which turned out to be excellent. Bit creepy having the whole place to ourselves but when there are a few guests there (and restaurant open) the atmosphere will be great.
the pool, the apartment, the minigolf, the beach lack of dishwashing liquid, toaster and the fact that the heating came on even though it was nearly 30 degrees outside
Just an overnight stay , I was not told that there was a very large building site a-joining the Hotel working till 6pm that day,made it very dusty and unpleasent to look at, faced the front entrance of hotel. Also the dining room only opens July & August, only food for Dinner was a toasted sandwich. I was told I could go into town to eat, but as I am 68yrs of age and touring France & Spain on my own ,the idea of staying in Hotels was so I did not have to go out after dark. The bar area was also the snack bar area as well, and it did not help when the workmen came in after work to drink there, and the local men. You do not expect from a star rated hotel.
the staff were very helpful room,facilities and location great just note pool only open May-September even though indoor
good quality modern hotel with excellent breakfast buffet
The location was beautiful and the staff very friendly
The fist day of my stay the food was good, the shower in my room was good. the food deteriorated over the period of my stay to such an extent that I suffered from mild food poisoning on the second to last day. The shower pressure gradually weekend to a dribble. The room was never cleaned properly - the ash tray wasn't emptied.
Location of hotel close to a sandy beach. An attractive, supervised and covered swimming pool. All town facilities within a very pleasant walk along the sea front. Lovely views from hotel grounds. Very good Spanish breakfast. Rooms very clean with good facilities. An apartment block being constructed in hotel grounds. No food other than breakfast at the time of our stay in September.
As stated above - we booked this hotel because the im pression was given that there was a terrace resturant - there was not, also, the hotel had no local info, not even in spanish!
Easy to find , fairly close to the main road, far enough away to be quiet. Partial view of the sea and nearby town. Easy walk to nice beach. Wifi available free, but not good recepion and rather slow. In early June there was lots of building work on the site and nearby, some noisy lorries early in the morning, car got very dusty.
It was a very convenient first stop in Galicia; the view from the new building should be much improved and I would like to know when that building is finished and ready for occupancy.
The Casa Conors deserves to be a success, based on our experince. The service was exquisite both in the restaurant and in the reception area. The food was excellent value for money and displayed a love of N. Spanish cuisine. The bedroom was a little cold.
Beds which can be reclined. Its a Spa resort with a indoor pool. Free internet. It is not easy to locate. Road name not easily found. Coordinates on GPS is not accurate. Situated up among the farm area. Staff at counter does not speak English.
Beautiful location, away from the hi-rises and Cranes of Foz. we had a confirmed rate of Euro 85.60 but on check-out we were charged Euro 102.70. They had put us into a suite which we did not asked for.
Location is superb for the lovely local beaches and interesting towns. Analogue TV was very limited for foreign travellers and could have done with an armchair in the room, which was big enough.
Our stay was midweek in September, with a room at the back of the hotel, so no problem with traffic noise. But can imagine it could be a problem at busier times as other guests have reported. Staff very friendly and good location for Las Catedrales beach.

Internship Program
Internships are a very important facet of the curriculum at Goucher College, and the Africana studies faculty members consider them to be essential to a student's education. The variety of internships that have been completed under the supervision of this program proves the relevance of a degree in Africana studies. Students find internship opportunities through the Career Development Office, through faculty and staff members, or on their own.
A detailed description of the off-campus experience is published by the Career Development Office each year and fully describes the guidelines and timetable for internships. Students interested in arranging an internship in Africana studies should contact their individual academic advisers.

Akatsuki Chronicles
Chapter One: Begin With A Bang
[*woooooh* as the wind blows through Jacobs hair, He looks to the ground in desperation, in what seems to be the end for him. He wonders if he's made a difference in anyone's life, if he'll be remember'd for more than just being a shinobi. As tears start to form and slowly drizzle down his cheeks]
[Flashback-15 years earlier]
Young Girls Voice: [*yelling*] Jacob! .. Jacob!, where could he be? [she wonders, as she looks left and right continuously]
Disgruntled Voice: Go Away..
Young Girl: [Following the echo of the voice] Jacob, what are you doing here by yourself [finding Jacob sitting behind a tree]. I was worried about you [she says, as she wraps both her arms around his head pushing his head against her chest]
Jacob: [*smiling* with the feel of love and comfort coming from the hug] Sisi, what must you always do this?
Sisi: Because i'm your big sister and i care for you with all my heart. Your all that i have and you keep running away, it worries me [as she lets go of his head to look him in his eyes]. I don't know what i would ever do with out you [as a tear falls down the left side of her cheek]
Jacob: Why does everyone else think i'm a loser, Sisi?
Sisi: [wiping the tear off her face, with her arm] No one thinks your a loser, their just trying to bring you down because they see something in you that they wish they had. Since your all kids it upsets them that they don't see the something they see in you, in themselves [as she smiles with great confidence].
Jacob: [*smiling* from ear to ear] you really think so ?! [he says with excitement]
Sisi: I know so, Jacob [she says while hugging him again]. Now lets get out of here and get something to eat [now helping Jacob stand-up]
[2 Years Later]
Jacob: Sisi! Sisi! I'm a Chuunin now ! [showing extreme excitement in his face]. Sisi, whats wrong? [now the excitement on his face slowly changes to a concerned look]
Sisi: [Looking away from Jacob] Nothings wrong Jacob, Im proud of you.
Jacob: Why won't you look at me?
Sisi: [*Trying to hold her tears back*] I have to leave on a mission.
Jacob: [*puzzled and confused*] But, you always go on missions. Whats wrong with this one?
Sisi: [turns her head towards Jacob. *Gulp* swallowing her emotions] I have to go to the Hidden Rain Village [as she puts a on a smile to hide her pain of sadness]
Jacob: Isn't that Village Controlled by an Evil man
Sisi: Yes, my mission is to spy on this man and a Organization of Rebels
Jacob: [*begins to smile*] Sounds like S-rank Mission, ALRIGHT! My Sister is Amazing! Consider this mission a Success
Sisi: [*Now beginning to feel the pain slowly disappear, feeling the comfort of her little brothers belief in her*] That's right, Little Bro, pretty soon we'll go on these missions together [now smiling in happiness]
Jacob: I can't wait to become a Jounin, like you..
[Jacob being interrupted by 3 other Jounin shinobi, that appear to have came to get Sisi]
Jounin shinobi: Sisi, it's time to leave
Sisi: [Looking at her team mates] Alright then [now turning her head back to Jacob] I love you, always remember that. I'll be back as soon as i can.
Jacob: [*smiling*] I love you to Sis, I know you'll succeed
[Sisi and the 3 other Jounin now leaving and heading towards the Hidden Rain Village. As Jacob stands there watching his older sister leave]
[1 Year and 3 Months Later]
[As Jacob is on his way back to the Village, coming from a successful mission with his team. They are stopped at the Gates by 2 Jounin sensei's]
Jounin Sensei: Jacob you should come with us, we need you to verify something.
Jacob: What is it exactly you need me to verify ? [he says with his head tilting to the right]
Jacob's Sensei: [Instantly realizing the look on the faces of the other Sensei] Jacob, it's important. Just go with them
Jacob: [Now really confused] Well, ok if you say so Sensei
[As the Sensei's take Jacob to the woods near their Village. when they finally reach the location. The Sensei's put their heads down looking towards the ground]
Jounin Sensei's: We're Sorry..
[As Jacob looks at them with a puzzled look, he then quickly notices a group of medic ninja surrounding 3 bodies. Shocked at seeing such a Gruesome scene from the gap's between the medic ninjas legs. *Snaps out of the daze* and runs over to the bodies looking at all of them *Frantically* noticing their part of his sister's team that was sent on the mission with her to the Rain Village, also noticing his sister isn't among the bodies on the ground]
Jacob: [*With tears dropping down his face*] Where is she? [he asks quietly]. WHERE IS SHE?! [he then yells]
[Jacob seeing the medic ninja's eyes looking at a tree a little further in the forest, then where the bodies were. He quickly runs to it. Then slowly stopping to drop to his knees, in such dis-belief. He's sister Pinned to a tree, hanging lifeless with her neck slit open]
Jacob: [*Crying mixed with Rage and Horror*] H..How…C..Could this happen [*Sniffles*] Who did this… WHO DID THIS! [screaming at the top of his lungs in an angered filled tone]
Medic Ninja: [*Putting his hand on Jacob's shoulder gently*] They were on the way back from their mission, last night. We believe they were attacked by the very people they were spying on, they were killed because they had information that other people didn't want getting out.
Jacob: [*now lightly crying* he mutters ] Im going to kill whoever did this
[2 Days Later]
[At his sisters and her teams memorial burring, where tons of Villagers and Shinobi gathered. Jacob walks up to the coffin of his sister (*Looking at it Determined * to kill who did this to her)]
Jacob: I Love You Sisi. Your the only person whoever truly loved me since mom and dad past, [*starts to tear and sniffle*] You were only 13 years old taking care of me, a 2 year old. [*laughs lightly*] I remember you were always frustrated but determined to make sure i grew up feeling loved. If it wasn't for you i wouldn't be the person i am today, i'd be a loser not knowing what the feeling of being wanted and loved was. I wish you could have watched me grow from down here, so you could teach me all the cool techniques you knew but, now you can look after me with mom and dad all the time no matter what. I know they're proud of you for taking on the roll of theirs at such an early age. I'll train my hardest to become as strong as you are. "I'll Always Love You, Remember That", [*Now looking up towards the sky*] I know you will Sisi. I know you will.
To Be Continued..

Discussion in 'Sports Zone' started by Hoofbite, Dec 30, 2012.
Just caught a video of it. Pummeling to say the least.
Pretty impressive how Cain came out and just took the fight to Junior. It was equally impressive how Junior took shot after shot, trying to regain some form of energy to mount an attack, it was all heart but Cain was not going to be denied.
Cant wait for IIII
On a side note why do people boo guys after a fight? These guys fight their butts off, boo them before the fight, show them some respect after it.
Yeah, I'm not really sure many guys take those kinds of shots and get up.
That 1st round shot was just massive. That's knocking a lot of guys out for a week.
I have not seen the fight yet, but from what I have read here and elsewhere it was something.
This booing has always bothered me as well, those guys are out there fighting hard and getting booed for it? Crazy stuff.
Cain really pushed the pace. Interesting strategy to use as a HW and it worked amazingly well.
Dos Santos is a beast and he'll be back for sure.
JDS way to victory this fight was via BJJ but he never went for anything really.
Would have liked to see him at least use the Lauzon strat and go for some late submissions. Just too gassed I guess.
Also I am pretty sure Alistair destroys these guys.
Lots of unnatural strength with the Reem.
Because of this, I am hoping Big Foot beats him. But I think Overeem destroys Big Foot.

Ade Tarya Hidayat
Sugih Instrumendo Abadi, PT.
J1. Tembokan Rt. 1/01, Ds. Cipeundeuy
Padalarang, Jawa Barat 40553, Indonesia
Dear Mr. Hidayat:
During an inspection of your firm located in Padalarang, Jawa Barat, Indonesia,on June 25, 2012, through June 28, 2012, an investigator from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determined that your firm manufactures aneroid sphygmomanometers (blood pressure cuffs). Under section 201(h) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. § 321(h), these products are devices because they are intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, or to affect the structure or function of the body.
This inspection revealed that these devices are adulterated within the meaning of section 501(h) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 351(h), in that the methods used in, or the facilities or controls used for, their manufacture, packing, storage, or installation are not in conformity with the current good manufacturing practice requirements of the Quality System regulation found at Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 820.
We received a response from you dated July 18, 2012, concerning our investigator's observations noted on the Form FDA 483 (FDA 483), List of Inspectional Observations, which was issued to your firm. We address this response below, in relation to each of the noted violations. These violations include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Failure to establish and maintain adequate procedures to control the design of the device in order to ensure that specified design requirements are met, as required by 21 CFR 820.30(a).
For example: the first revision of the Design Control Procedure, Document #SIA-PO-27.01, Issue #1, Revision #0, was established on June 8, 2012. Your firm has yet to subject the aneroid sphygmomanometer, cleared under 510(k) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360(k) (#K012444) on August 16, 2001, through the design control process in order to ensure that specified design requirements are met.
The adequacy of your firm's response cannot be determined at this time. The corrective actions have not yet been completed by your firm.
- Failure to establish and maintain adequate acceptance procedures to ensure that specified requirements for in-process product are met, as required by 21 CFR 820.80(c).
For example: on June 26, 2012, (b)(4) defective aneroid gauges were randomly selected for review from a rejected bin of (b)(4) in the gauge manufacturing area. The gauges are used in the manufacturing of the aneroid sphygmomanometer. A review of these gauges revealed that the entire lot of aneroid gauges were checked by Quality Control and approved for transfer to the warehouse. However, some gauges from the lot were found in the rejection bin waiting for rework. (b)(4) gauges were found to have gone through rework due to a calibration failure. They passed inspection and they were then found in the rejected bin again waiting for rework.
The adequacy of your firm's response cannot be determined at this time. Your firm has not provided documentation to verify that the corrections have been implemented.
- Failure to establish and maintain procedures to adequately develop, conduct, control, and monitor production processes to ensure that a device conforms to its specification, as required by 21 CFR 820.70(a).
For example: on June 26, 2012, your firm was manufacturing the (b)(4) for the sphygmomanometer bag in the (b)(4) area. It was observed that the manufacturing process failed to ensure the (b)(4) requirements were met. In addition, this was not documented.
The adequacy of your firm's response cannot be determined at this time. Your firm's response did not provide documentation to demonstrate that the (b)(4) manufacturing process is bring performed according to your firm's manufacturing procedures.
- Failure to establish and maintain adequate procedures to ensure that device history records (DHRs) for each batch, lot, or unit are maintained to demonstrate that the device is manufactured in accordance with the device master record, as required by 21 CFR 820.184.
For example: your firm has yet to establish a DHR procedure. In addition, (b)(4) DHRs from the years 2011 and 2012, pertaining to the aneroid sphygmomanometer, were selected for review during the inspection. (b)(4) of the DHRs included or referred to the location of the primary identification label and labeling used for each production unit.
The adequacy of your firm's response cannot be determined at this time. Your firm has not provided documentation to demonstrate that corrective actions have been implemented.
- Failure of management with executive responsibility to review the suitability of the quality system at defined intervals and with sufficient frequency according to established procedures to ensure that the quality system satisfies the requirements of Part 820, as required by 21 CFR 820.20(c).
For example: Management Review Procedure, Document #SIA-PO-01.01, Issue #2, Revision #1, requires management reviews to be conducted (b)(4). However, (b)(4). This is evident for the years 2010 through 2012.
The adequacy of your firm's response cannot be determined at this time. The actions have not yet been conducted and your firm has not provided documentation of the implementation.
A follow-up inspection will be required to assure that corrections and/or corrective actions are adequate.
U.S. federal agencies may be advised of the issuance of Warning Letters about devices so that they may take this information into account when considering the award of contracts. Additionally, premarket approval applications for Class III devices to which the Quality System regulation deviations are reasonably related will not be approved until the violations have been corrected. Requests for Certificates to Foreign Governments will not be granted until the violations related to the subject devices have been corrected.
Please notify this office in writing within fifteen business days from the date you receive this letter of the specific steps your firm has taken to correct the noted violations, including an explanation of how your firm plans to prevent these violations, or similar violations, from occurring again. Include documentation of the corrections and/or corrective action (including any systemic corrective actions) that your firm has taken. If your firm's planned corrections and/or corrective actions will occur over time, please include a timetable for implementation of those activities. If corrections and/or corrective actions cannot be completed within fifteen business days, state the reason for the delay and the time within which these activities will be completed. Please provide a translation of documentation not in English to facilitate our review.
Your firm's response should be sent to: Food and Drug Administration, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Office of Compliance, Field Operations Branch, White Oak Building 66, Rm 2609, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Silver Spring, MD 20993. Refer to CMS case #559739 when replying. If you have any questions about the contents of this letter, please contact: Joshua Simms at (301) 796-5599.
Finally, you should know that this letter is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of the violations at your firm's facility. It is your firm's responsibility to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations administered by FDA. The specific violations noted in this letter and in the Inspectional Observations, FDA 483, issued at the close of the inspection may be symptomatic of serious problems in your firm's manufacturing and quality management systems. Your firm should investigate and determine the causes of the violations, and take prompt actions to correct the violations and bring the products into compliance.
Sincerely yours,
Steven D. Silverman

Top: When the new Naval and Marine Corps Reserve Training Center opened next to the Carnegie Tech campus in 1956, this postcard described it as "ultramodern."
Few tears when shed when crews demolished the old building, which was used in the mid-1990s as a temporary student union and then for offices and the Carnegie Mellon police station.
The SCS complex rising on the same spot will contain 200,000 square feet of classrooms, collaborative laboratories and public space. It'll also have something that was lacking when the old "Navy building" opened--lots of natural light. Indeed, when the planning committee surveyed SCS students, faculty, and staff to find out what they wanted in the new complex, "windows" was the number one request.
Bottom: A photo taken from the same location as the postcard view shows the final steel for the Hillman Center for Future-Generation Technologies rising into place. The Hillman building and adjoining Gates Center for Computer Science will be ready for occupancy in 2009.

As a Family Therapist I frequently deal with the stresses that marital conflicts have on the rest of the family. The impact of these difficulties on the kids often results in behavioral problems that further stress the already burdened couple. When you bring your children to see me, or come in without them to discuss parenting, you will benefit by improving your understanding of what your kids are actually saying to you, and begin to wind down old tendencies to just react to their behavior. You will learn effective ways to help your kids deal with their upset feelings, and an unexpected by product of this will be that you'll feel better about yourself, too.

Many times, child therapists overdo the family system in their quest to seek effective solutions for emotional, learning or behavioral concerns with young children. And many times doctors overpathologize issues that shouldn't be medicated necessarily. This leaves parents wondering what is the best route for their child? Introducing brainwave optimization technology. A fast, effective, natural, and less expensive way to allow your child's brain to make the optimizing changes it desires to make---on its own!

Depending on the presenting problem of the child, some of the therapies we may use include behavioral therapy and play therapy. Behavior therapy can help teach parents a variety of skills that include: establishing rules, learning about positive reinforcement, using developmentally appropriate directions, planning ahead, and being consistent. We can train parents to use effective communication and other strategies to manage child's behavior. Play therapy uses play to communicate with and help children to prevent or resolve psychosocial challenges. Play therapy can help children improve growth and development, emotional regulation, and trauma resolution.

Often times children are struggling with issues in their own life and cannot communicate their need for help. It is a parent's job to recognize when something is not right. Helping children identify problems and work through them is a skill that lasts a lifetime. My work with children is based on trust. Only when they feel safe will they begin to reveal their inner thoughts and fears. This is achieved mainly through play therapy and parent child sessions.

Being a beer snob is kind of like being a serial killer (stay with us...) in that people rarely just come right out and say "Hello, I am a beer snob." It's all about the ACTIONS, whether they be stockpiling a bunch of bodies in the basement, or stockpiling a bunch of rare beers in the one corner of the basement not occupied by all those bulky bodies. With that said, here are the different types of beer snobs you might encounter, which, just to be clear, does not in any way make them more likely to be a serial killer. Probably.
The Self-Important Homebrewer
Will second-guess the beer he's consuming with talk of hop varieties and bottle conditioning. Has made one decidedly mediocre pale ale from a kit he received for Christmas.
Mr. Groupthink
Incapable of telling you what he thinks of a beer until he's scanned a representative sampling of BeerAdvocate reviews.
Just an Asshole
Was already an insufferable snob about his car, wardrobe, and frequent trips to Europe. Beer was just the next logical step in the progression. Why yes, he did just correct your pronunciation of "Cantillon."
The Condescender
Treats anyone drinking a light beer like a toddler who just pooped himself, audible groans of disapproval included. Also the kind of person who intentionally provokes political arguments at family gatherings.
The Master Debater
You: "I tried this beer, it was pretty good." Him: "Get ready to spend the next five minutes finding a polite exit while I harangue you about your beer preferences, even though, in reality, I think that beer is good, too."
The Evangelist
Brings a few choice selections and a hefty supply of tasting glasses to any social gathering, just hoping to win a couple of converts. What, you weren't planning on drinking a 15% ABV Russian imperial stout at your nephew's Christening?
Captain Ahab
Almost got his hands on a Pappy Van Winkle 23 Dark Lord back in 2011, and has been hunting that white whale ever since. Probably doesn't have a peg leg, but might!
The Professor
Won't even listen to you unless you're AT LEAST taking Cicerone classes. But she will talk. OH, will she talk.
The Trader
Parlayed a Surly Darkness and an Abyss into a Chocolate Rain, which he combined with a CBS to land a barrel-aged Hunahphu's that's almost impossible to find. Has yet to try any of these beers. Ask him if he's gonna open that Hunah and he will look at you like you're crazy. Will entertain trade offers, though.
The Sampler
Always asks for a sample at the bar, you know, so he can make an informed decision -- aka find some minute defect with it and then ask for something he already knows he likes.
The Fresh-Head
Ummmm... DID YOU JUST DRINK THAT IPA?? IT'S NINE DAYS OLD AND WAS SHIPPED ACROSS SEVEN STATES!!!! HAVE SOME GODDAMN RESPECT FOR YOURSELF!!!
The Sour Prince
Beers that cost less than $17.99 retail scare him deeply. He once put 35 Warheads in his mouth at once, and finished them all without so much as a sip of water. People unfamiliar with yeast strains universally assume his best friend is named "Brett."
The IBU Freak
He once drank an entire bottle of bitters thinking it was a small flavored soda because he had his glasses off, and didn't notice. Tim Allen is not-so-secretly his favorite television personality.
Release Party Guy
He's got his tickets, he's got a sleeping bag, and he's got the respect of three people, who are the three people directly behind him in line. Couldn't tell you what any of the beers he's tried in the last year taste like, because he only had one of each, because you gotta do the rounds, man. Nobody is certain how he gets home.
The Barrel-Aged Devotee
In honor of the woodworking craftsmen, she named her child Cooper, even though that's the name of the silly Manning brother nobody likes. Also she's pretty broke.
The Glassware Obsessive
Wait, did you seriously just pour a Vienna-style lager into a domestic barrel-aged breakfast stout glass? YOU KNOW HE CAN SEE YOU!!!!
The Complete 180
Three months ago, she exclusively drank 16oz cans of domestic light beer, shotgunning two-thirds of them. Last week, she booked a two-week trip to Vermont, by herself.
The Brewery Fanboy
He wears a Three Floyds hoodie when he buys his Heady Topper, wears a Heady Topper ballcap when he drinks his Pliny, and wears a Pliny T-shirt when he goes to Dark Lord Day. He owns a matching Arrogant Bastard biking jersey and socks, but not a bike.
The One-Upper
Oh, you've got a good beer? That's great, his is better. God, it's so much better. The nice part though? He will refuse to drink yours because it's not good enough, and will give you half of his just to prove that he's just the best at beer. So basically, keep this guy around.

Borderlands Studies
Much political oratory has been devoted to safeguarding America's boundary with Mexico, but policies that militarize the border and criminalize immigrants have overshadowed the region's widespread
This book is a fascinating, if horrifying, look at border violence and the many reasons it is flourishing, including the well-intentioned but frequently misguided policies of the United States government. I'm transfixed by its depiction of a topsy-turvy world where the immigrants are the heroes and the officials who pass and try to administer inhumane laws to please their xenophobic constituencies are the villains. This book makes a powerful statement about how insecure our newfound emphasis on homeland security is making all of us.
—Susan Tiano, author of Patriarchy on the Line: Labor, Gender, and Ideology in the Mexican Maquila Industry
violence against women, the increase in crossing deaths, and the lingering poverty that spurs people to set out on dangerous northward treks. This book addresses those concerns by focusing on gender-based violence, security, and human rights from the perspective of women who live with both violence and poverty.
From the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico, scholars from both sides of the 2,000-mile border reflect expertise in disciplines ranging from international relations to criminal justice, conveying a more complex picture of the region than that presented in other studies.
Initial chapters offer an overview of routine sexual assaults on women migrants, the harassment of Central American immigrants at the hands of authorities and residents, corruption and counterfeiting along the border, and near-death experiences of border crossers. Subsequent chapters then connect analysis with solutions in the form of institutional change, social movement activism, policy reform, and the spread of international norms that respect human rights as well as good governance.
These chapters show how all facets of the border situation—globalization, NAFTA, economic inequality, organized crime, political corruption, rampant patriarchy—promote gendered violence and other expressions of hyper-masculinity. They also show that U.S. immigration policy exacerbates the problems of border violence—in marked contrast to the border policies of European countries.
By focusing on women's everyday experiences in order to understand human security issues, these contributions offer broad-based alternative approaches and solutions that address everyday violence and inattention to public safety, inequalities, poverty, and human rights. And by presenting a social and democratic international feminist framework to address these issues, they offer the opportunity to transform today's security debate in constructive ways.

addicted lol
I think I'm quickly becoming addicted to this forum. I love my curly hair, but I know it can be better. I'm obsessed with seeing everyone else's beautiful hair and their hair routines. I want to create a silicone and sulfate free routine for myself. Everything I own, except my sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, has them in it :-( . maybe I should put them on the swap meet site and give them away lol, some of its pretty expensive. My daughter has beautiful, curly hair too, but I'm not sure her curly type yet. It doesn't seem to be as curly as my own. One day soon I will have lovely hair to boast about too. I'm envious of all of your hair.
Don't go selling anything just yet! You can try a CG routine. Go get some inexpensive products at the drugstore. If you hair responds then great, put the rest of the stuff up on the swap board. If not, well, you'll have backup. And reading around this site you might have a better idea of how to use what you already had.
P.S. This site is ridiculously addictive.
When you first start, it's hard not to be obsessed. It does get better as you begin to know what your hair likes. Best place to start is to look for folks with similar properties and see what they use and do.
I'm posting this right here, right now, JUST because I'm addicted too:)
After I posted I though, "I'm going to wait a bit before I decide to get rid of my stuff, and I can always give it to my sister." Lol.
NvmbrCurlss:Lol, it is addicting
^^^ :)
I AM SUPER OBSESSED. :shock:
There should totally be a curly girl anonymous group or something but I would never ever in a thousand years hand over my growing stash haha.
All I can say is that some people can experiment and stop but I will forever be an experimenter. I just cannot stop because I always find some new combo I love, some things are no longer available, formulas change- beieve me I'll find an excuse. People probably see our hair and assume that we just wake up like that COUGH COUGH SPITS COFFEE no way.
You will learn a lot, you'll whip up your own concoctions etc. Just remember that your hair is totally unique and to try things you love and go more towards those. It also helps to look for people that have hair similar yours or just people whose hair you like etc. I actually have a bunch of threads with posters who had awesome routines in my favorites bar because I am a weirdo like that. Have fun and ROCK them locks :headbang:
Im a little addicted too. I'm 3b and am finding oils troublesome. I'd like to give them a good try because my hair is so dry, but they do tend to make the curl less clumpy (almost frizzy), do you know what to do to rectify this?
It's VERY addicting, I agree! There's always something fun and new to try. I think I'm really close to having my perfect system, and now I'm obsessed with the perfect technique. Next I want to see if I can get different types of curls by using different techniques.

Williamsburg City Plan
When Middle Plantation was chosen to be the new capitol city of Virginia in 1699 there was one small problem—it wasn't a city! At that time Williamsburg, as it was renamed, consisted only of the new college, a church, a tavern, a few stores, 2 mills, a smiths shop, and little else. But the government of Virginia was not daunted by this challenge. They had not chosen Middle Plantation because of its size or population, but for its potential. The British government of Virginia was intent on building a proper British capital in the colony and Williamsburg offered them the opportunity.

text: ISLAMABAD - National Accountability Bureau (NAB) is all set to file yet another corruption reference amounting to $20 million against ex-Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf regarding alleged corruption in Pakistan Power Resources Guddu, a rental power project, The Nation has learnt.According to well-placed sources in NAB, the investigations in corruption case of a RPP Guddu have been completed and chairman NAB is likely to approve a corruption reference in this regard in the next executive board meeting. The sources maintained that according to the investigation, Guddu Rental Power Project was sponsored by Pakistan Power Resources in 2006 and it has been noticed that the total rental value in respect of Guddu plant was determined at US $72.48 million against which 14 per cent down payment, equal to US $10.15 million (7 per cent on 17.03.2008 and 7 per cent on 12.03.2009), was made thereof. But, the sources said, when the plant was shifted from Guddu to Naudero, again for the second time 14 per cent advance payment was made on 06.04.2010 to M/S Walters Power International. Sources said that by this way, around $20 million were paid as advance payment by the officials of ministry of water and power headed by the then minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf. The NAB under the command of Chaudhary Qamar Zaman has filed 40 references since November last year out of which at least 19 are high profile references. Out of the 19 cases, the most high profile case that hit the headlines are the RPPs cases which, besides the then minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, also include the then Finance Advisor Shaukat Tareen. Tareen has been accused of releasing 7 per cent mobilisation advance to the RPP companies in February 2009 while the issue was taken to the ECC in April 2009. Three references in RPPs have been filed by NAB so far and all include Raja Pervaiz Ashraf as accused. According to NAB officials, 19 people have been indicted in RPPs references and they include Raja Pervez Ashraf, former federal secretaries Shahid Rafi and Ismail Qureshi, and Tahir Basharat Cheema, former managing director PEPCO.The Pakistan Power Resources Guddu reference will be the fourth reference against the ex-premier.This news was published in The Nation newspaper.

Good Day!
It is so appropriate that you had to WAIT for this Wake-Up Message! Sorry about that.
Listen in for some ideas about patience.
Welcome to your Week!
How often do you experience physical pain? Listen in to discover a new way to think about it. Pain can be good for us if we take time to notice it.
Thanks for the great message, and the important reminder to embrace ALL of the things that remind us of our progress. Pain, fatigue, bags under our eyes, even a pile of dirty laundry can be a wonderful reminder of a weekend full of yard work, soccer games, painting, etc. Your voice even sounded as if you might have been in a little bit of pain when you recorded your message. It added to the effectiveness of the message, whether it was an actor's embellishment or the real thing. Thanks for a great start to the week, and feel better!
great great wake up message Reg!
We are grateful to have Reg in this community!
Getting our thoughts, words and actions to work together can be challenging. How can you create harmony in your life? Listen in for one idea!
Welcome to May!
Not only did my daughter WRITE this week's message, she recorded it for me! Enjoy the sound of love, because that is exactly what she gave me this Mother's Day Week - a perfect act of kindness!
Thanks Sophia for helping your mom. That's the message I take away from this , the beginning of mothers day week- ask for help! Its not a sign of weakness, it is a great model for kids to see that everyone needs help and it is wonderful for your kids to be able to develop their feelings of competency and for them to receive the benefits that kindness can bring.
Also remember for those of you who don't have children, who aren't moms or have difficult relationships with your children, your grown children, or your own moms, or if your mothers are gone, there are tons of people out there who you can "adopt" even for the day, even for a moment who could use smile or your special way of connecting. Regina and Sophia remind me though that this works in reverse and if you are feeling lonely as many do around holidays, or in need of help, look around- maybe it will come in an unexpected place or from an unlikely person but you have to stay open enough, to let someone come close enough, to receive what they may be able to give you.
What a wonderful daughter you have Reg! Isn't it great when they remind us of what a good job we have done as moms, esp. at this time?! Laura
Thank you! I agree! I think we forget that our kids CAN help US! We don't always have to be Superheros to them - they are just as powerful! Thank you for the lovely comments!

2010 Senior Art Show grand opening on April 22
Posted by Judy Korn on Monday, Apr. 12, 2010
The work of six graduating seniors from the studio art program at the University of Minnesota, Morris will be featured during the 2010 Senior Art Show. The campus and community are invited to the gallery grand opening at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 22, 2010, in Humanities Fine Arts (HFA).
Works in ceramics, sculpture, digital imaging, video, drawing, painting, photography, and printmaking are represented in the exhibit. Senior artists, their areas of concentration, and their hometowns are as follows: Yang Mee Moua, drawing and painting, St. Paul Sammy Vankrevelen, painting and photo-digital, Coon Rapids Debbie Covart, drawing and photography, Ramsey Michelle Leedahl, drawing and painting, Glenwood Dixon Bordiano, drawing and painting, Minneapolis Tessa Bordiano, sculpture, Minneapolis.
"As a professor, it is quite fulfilling to watch each senior develop creatively through his or her own work," reflects Michael Eble, associate professor of studio art. "They begin their education through a rigorous basic studio sequence that instills a firm grasp on their art fundamentals. Over time, they begin to formulate their own processes and concepts through a sustained practice of studio classes and classes outside their major. In the end, these students are artists with an acute sense of visual literacy and are also critical thinkers and writers."
The 2010 Senior Art Show closes after Commencement on Saturday, May 15, 2010. HFA Gallery hours are from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. Monday–Thursday from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. Friday and from 1 until 4 p.m. Saturday.

Hilo may even return to national prominence, as it did in 2011, when its senior division won the Little League world series.
A star baseball player in college, he also volunteered as a Little League coach.
I was on a Little League team in fifth grade but it doesn't make me a baseball player.
"Tell me before I forget," Cianci replies, and when they do, he remembers a graduation, an uncle, a Little League tournament.
R.C. has joined the Little League team and bowls near the casino.
I understand between advocacy, writing, and speaking, you also moonlight as a Little League baseball coach.
According to Lazenby, Jordan experienced a complete 180 when he transitioned from Little League to Babe Ruth baseball.
They also lived the life of a Middle-American town: "high school football on Friday night, Little League, neighborhood barbecue."
Not only would this make her a relatable regular gal, she could share charming stories about her hubby as a Little League dad.
News, weather, traffic, financial info and data, travel info, help shopping, even Little League scores.
