I feel my psychiatrist and I have finally hit on the right combination of medications, therapy and lifestyle changes. I'm experiencing the best relief from symptoms (about 90 percent or more of the time) that I have ever experienced. I finally feel mostly stable as long as I follow my medication and treatment plans, and I am very compliant with treatment. I feel worried, however, that my condition may someday change out of the blue and that my new stability might not remain. How likely is it that I will continue to be as stable as I am now? I am 34 and was diagnosed with bipolar type II about five years ago, and also have chronic PTSD. Thank you.
Congratulations on finding a good balance – I know this required a lot of hard work and determination on your part, to keep working with your doctor to find an effective treatment plan for you.
You are right that there is no guarantee your stability will continue forever, and that you may experience some symptom "blips" again. But the good news is that for many people, symptoms do tend to "mellow out" over time. Working through some of your PTSD issues should also be helpful in maintaining the even keel that you have managed to achieve.
For people with bipolar II, the thing to watch out for is increasing subsyndromal depression – in other words, feelings of depression that might not be strong enough to qualify as an official diagnosis. These mood changes can creep up on you over time. You may find it helpful to keep a mood diary, so you will be aware of any persistent periods of low mood, and can discuss them with your doctor before anything becomes too serious.
In maintaining your recovery, it's important to keep a very consistent schedule with as little sleep disruption as possible, and to avoid drugs and alcohol. This should minimize your chances of having another episode.

The Shanghai Composite now rests at its lowest level since March 2009 – which is just when stock markets the rest of the world over began to recover. Admittedly, Shanghai bounced several months earlier, once China started administering its stimulus. But still, this is quite a turn of events given that the Chinese economy continues to grow far faster than the rest of the world.
What gives? Specifically with relation to Shanghai, it entered the period in the aftermath of a historic bubble that looked almost exactly like the Nasdaq bubble that had burst seven years earlier. There follows a chart from the Short View back in late 2007, when the Shanghai had indeed, we now know, peaked.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Marshmellow is one of 4 siblings that all look almost identical except for some fur length and a grey spot on the top of their head. He has short fur and the smallest, lightest patch. He is an absolute sweetheart and still loves to chase his tail. With Marshmellow by your side you won't be cold this winter he loves to cuddle and give hugs and kisses! He is close with his brother Snowball. More pictures of them can be seen at www.flickr.com/ameliad -the white set.
I would like to either adopt them out in pairs or individually into homes that already have a cat. These guys love to play so they need to be in a home with another cat for companionship. Interested adopters should note there's an adoption application to fill out and an adoption donation required per cat. This money helps pay for the vaccines and food already given and helps us help other kitties down the line.
Marshmellow has been vaccinated and tested negative for both FIV and FeLV. He's also flea and worm free as well.
If you are intersted in Marshmellow and pals please contact Email email@example.com
Please be advised that if you're interested in Ivan , there is an adoption fee, an application process, and a required, but quick, home check.
Thank you so much for considering a rescue. We look forward to hearing from you.
Marshmellow, a New York Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in New York, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in New York.

Bucs place DE Johnson placed on IR, re-sign DT McCargo
John McCargo will get his third shot with the Bucs.
The Bills former No. 1 pick was re-signed by Tampa Bay Monday as the team placed DE George Johnson on injured reserve.
Johnson, who was seeing some action at defensive tackle, suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Houston Texans.
McCargo spent about a week with the Bucs in training camp. He was re-signed last week and practiced with the team on Wednesday. But shortly after practice ended, McCargo was released to make room for DT Albert Haynesworth, who was claimed off waivers from New England.

Possum Merino Ribbed Beanie
Possum Wool Classic Beanie
Merino Thermal Underwear - Women's Leggings
Merino Thermal Underwear - Men's Leggings
Possum Merino Ski Socks for Men & Women
Light, cushioned and ventilated. Made in New Zealand from 55% New Zealand Merino wool with 28% Nylon, 12% Lycra and 5% spandex for added stretch, strength, durability and shape retention.
New Zealand produces some of the best Merino wool in the world. Merino wool is much finer than traditional wool making it smooth against your skin and more comfortable to wear. With many more fibres contained in the fabric it traps more tiny air pockets and locks in body heat. Merino wool is highly breathable and it wicks moisture away from your body, releasing it into the air. This helps to regulate your temperature, keeping you warm in cold weather and cool in hot.
The natural properties of Merino wool make it odour resistant, another big advantage over synthetic fabrics. In very wet conditions, it will absorb up to a third of its weight in water without feeling clammy and retains some of its warmth even when very wet.
Please follow those on the packaging. Machine washable in warm water with a gentle detergent. Do not tumble dry. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean.

Megaupload, the notorious file hosting service that was abruptly shut down recently due to piracy and claims of money laundering, is taking another hit in the eyes of it's once users. Data could be deleted this week which means anyone who uploaded content, will lose everything.
The recent debacle with the Hong Kong based company, has really ignited the Internet community on the topic of piracy and copyright infringement. Prosecutors claim to have cost the music and movie industry Billions of dollars because of people uploading copyrighted material and users then downloading it.
The service made it very easy to upload and get access to content, whether it was music or movies. Many people were using it, too, and paying for it at that. Unfortunately, the site doesn't look to be making a comeback anytime soon.
"It is our understanding that the hosting companies may begin deleting the contents of the servers beginning as early as February 2, 2012," U.S. District Attorney Neil MacBride wrote in the letter. Ira Rothken, attorney for Megaupload, told The Associated Press that, after this development, at least 50 million customers could lose their files. Megaupload had been contracting with the companies to store the information, but can no longer pay those contracts because its assets have been frozen."
The situation is sure to make a lot of people upset, but what's done has already been done. Since they can't pay the hosting companies because their assets were frozen, there's a good chance all the data will be deleted.
How do you feel about the whole Megaupload situation?

A poster on NJOE has spotted an article on Del Rey listing all LOTF books up to Invincible (which would be eight books) as being combined into one E-book. The release date is scheduled as April 29th, right in time for Invincible, which comes out May 13th. The price is $40.00, a decent price for eight books from a recent series.
Thanks to Zee Zee, we've learned that each individual book (1-8) will be available on e-book also. They will also be out April 29th and the price is $7.99.

One of the best parts of the high school basketball season is the round-robin schedule in Rockland County. There haven't been many benefits since Section 1 decreased its regular season schedules from 20 to 18 games, but this is one.
With the emphasis on more geographically-based schedules, Rockland teams have played every non-league team in its conference (translation: every Rockland team not in its league) once. That has created some great early season matchups and today/tonight is no different.
The round-robin generally dominates the December schedule on that side of the river. It begins with a full slate today. That slate includes North Rockland at Nyack at 4 p.m. – a game that features the Nyack debut of senior Terrence McNair. The high-flying 6-foot-3 forward will be an instant impact player in the county and across Section 1 this year. He averaged double digits last year at St. Joe's of Montavale.
You'll probably recognize the name, of course. McNair is the nephew of former Nyack stars Gerry (Central Conn.) and Mike McNair (Purchase) and of former Nyack girls star Rachel McNair (George Mason). As you can see in parenthesis, all three played college ball.
North Rockland could be the top team in the county this year after Tappan Zee has dominated the competition the last two. The Red Raiders should get serious consideration in all County Center predictions. They have three starters back and a host of other pieces. Coach Chris Roff is generally pretty tough on his team, but even he sounded optimistic when I talked to him last week.
There are also three other Rockland-on-Rockland events tonight: Nanuet at Ramapo and Albertus Magnus at Clarkstown South at 5:30 and Pearl River at Suffern at 6. The latter two are especially intriguing. Albertus and South hope to retool off strong seasons and Pearl River and Suffern are two teams with good, young players that seem to be on the rise.
Check back later for recaps. Colleague Dan DeFrancesco will be at Nyack this afternoon. Follow him on Twitter @LoHud_DeFran for updates.

Things got testy in the Atlanta Braves' 2-1 win over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday. After hitting a homer (and admiring it) in the third inning, Bryce Harper got plunked in the leg by Julio Teheran. Have a look at the video.
The only problem is Harper had it coming, so he should have just accepted it and trotted to first base. It's not like Teheran threw at his head.
It's also not like the Nationals are in contention, no matter what Harper says. The Braves now lead the National League East by 14 1/2 games.

Sweet Unholy Christ Flavored Crackers.
Okay, well, you're my new idol.
I wanna grow up to be like you.
I feel like I should be pulling that bit from "Wayne's World" where Wayne and Garth throw themselves at the feet of their idols and start bowing and chanting "We are not worthy!"
That "melody" is amazing. The faint, scratchy one that's about 5 or so notes.
I love how the vocals start to growl a bit, like you're about to go full tilt Aggrotech, and then it backs off in to clean vocals again.
I could sit and praise every bit of this song all day, but I don't think it's necessary at this point.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This is pretty decent. Also loved the other song you made... I'll be following your work and I'll support you!
By the way, if you go serious with the same sound, don't go by the genre Industrial because you'll be horribly misplaced. This is more of a combination of Aggrotech and Electro-Industrial. Just noticing ya!~ :)
I wish audio portal included those sub-genres. Thanks for the review!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I really hope to hear more from you.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
really good. im expecting more real soon lol.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Theyve said it all already man, this is some very professional sounding stuff. Very very good job.
As far as constructive critisism, I've got nothing to add really, except when are you bringing more? :P

Rivera Sponsors Downtown Film Festival + New Late Night Menu
The Downtown Film Festival starts today, with John Sedlar's restaurant Rivera (also downtown) as the festival's restaurant sponsor. To mark the event, Rivera has a special 3 course prix fixe menu (for $40) available starting tonight. You can watch trailers for the Festival's movies on the restaurant's "illusion monitors" (drink too much of Sedlar's many tequilas in those wacky tequila chairs and maybe you'll see why they call them that) while you eat chilled crab with summer corn espuma, or confit duck leg with mâche and pine nuts--or pick a dish with Sedlar's spiceology stencils (pictured below), which are, in a way, trailers of a different sort. Bring in your festival film ticket stub and receive a 10% discount on the new late night menu, available Thursday through Sunday.
Caution: film festival food

Tickets for the films and a schedule of presentations for the festival (which runs August 12-22), are available at www.dffla.com. Films are screened at The AT&T Center Theater, on the corner of 12th Street and Olive, downtown. Rivera: 1050 S. Flower St.,

Watch This Huge Lion Let a Tiny Dog Lick Its Teeth Clean
Here's something you've never seen. Someone posted a video on YouTube of a full-grown lion letting a tiny dog lick its TEETH clean.
It was filmed at a zoo in Wynnewood, Oklahoma. The dog is a 7-year-old Dachshund named Milo, and the lion's name is Bonedigger.
They've apparently been best friends ever since Bonedigger was born five years ago.

London, July 10 (ANI): In a new trailer from Amanda Seyfried's upcoming flick 'Lovelace', the actress can be seen in full sync with her on-screen avatar of the famous porn star, Linda Lovelace.
The two-minute clip starts with the Seyfried's character talking about her hit X-rated movie 'Deep Throat' that was responsible for making Lovelace such a sensation, the Daily Express reported.
In the video, the 'Dear John' star told a reporter the porno film is just like any other movie for her, except it has so many other better things in it.
The reporter then asked her "Like what", and Lovelace replied with "Like me".
The forthcoming film, which also stars Sharon Stone and James Franco, is based on Lovelace's rise to fame after meeting Chuck Traynor and moving to New York, where she began making porn films.
The risque film not only shows Seyfried sporting pretending to give oral sex, but it also shows her getting it in Lovelace's family home. (ANI)

Parmiter's students took on the worldwide musical hit Les Miserables, based on Victor Hugo's 19th Century novel, for their annual production on Thursday, Friday and Saturday last week.
A cast of 43 including dancers brought the tragic tale, told exclusively through song, to life in spectacular style during the two and a half hour show.
The show was co-directed by drama teacher Lewis Froy and English teacher Gemma Absalom, both former students of Parmiter's and veterans of its drama scene.
Mr Froy said: "Les Miserables is big show in terms of length and the demands it places on the talents of students, especially as the entire story is told through song.
"I can honestly say that our cast rose to the challenge and maintained the high standard of student productions at Parmiter's.
"Having performed here myself as a student it was great to be on the other side of the fence and direct; it certainly took me back to some very happy memories."
Ms Absalom added: "I know what talking part in a production can do for the individual student and the impact it can have on the life of the school and this production of Les Miserables delivered on both counts."
A collection was taken for the Peace Hospice at the end of the show.

CANTON -- For St. Thomas Aquinas to make a trip to the state tournament for the second time in school history and the first time since 1975, it will have to scale the Heights.
Richmond Heights, that is.
The Knights (16-11) and Spartans (21-6) will collide in the Canton Division IV Regional title game Friday night in Memorial Field House following impressive semifinal efforts Tuesday. St. Thomas ousted Willoughby Cornerstone Christian 58-37 in the opener and Richmond Heights eliminated Malvern 59-45 in the second game.
"We've got our hands full," St. Thomas head coach Matt Hackenberg admitted. "They're unique because of the combination of defenses they use."
The Knights, who made the regional tournament for the seventh time in school history and for the second straight season, improved to 4-5 in regional play after decisively defeating the Patriots.
St. Thomas is making its third trip to the regional finals. It handed Brookfield an 85-64 defeat in the 1975 Class AA championship game and lost 54-37 to Loudonville in the 2004 Division III title contest.
Richmond Heights is playing for a Division IV regional championship in Canton for the second time in the last three seasons. In the previous game in 2012, Hiland sank a last-second shot from the corner to edge Richmond Heights 41-40.
Richmond Heights has lost to the last two Division IV state champions. Hiland went on to win the state in 2012, and was succeeded last season by Cleveland Villa Angela-St. Joseph, which excused Richmond Heights in a district title contest.
Richmond Heights graduated several seniors from its past two teams, but it reloaded under head coach Jason Priah, who played for Villa Angela-St. Joseph in the early 1990s.
The key players for the Spartans are 6-foot-3 senior guard Dontez Lockett, 6-foot-8 junior center Mike Parks, 6-foot junior point guard Kevin Hudson and 6-foot junior guard Christian Wilcox. There is depth, headed by 6-foot senior guard Sean Walker, 6-foot-2 sophomore Mory Bamba and 5-foot-7 sophomore guard Tonye Hamilton.
Lockett and Parks have been the featured players, but Hudson and Walker stepped up against Malvern. Walker scored 19 points and Hudson handed out nine assists.
Hackenberg, the St. Thomas coaching staff and players watched Richmond Heights sink nine triples, employ a diamond zone press which unnerved Malvern and spread the floor and slow the game down in the fourth quarter, closing the game with an 18-9 run.
"They used a variety of defensive schemes, they did a good job working traps out of their press, they have players who can drive to the basket and kick it out to their shooters, and they have guys who can slash to the basket," Hackenberg said.
St. Thomas altered its style of play against Cornerstone, playing more half-court man-to-man defense than extending the floor with its press.
Cornerstone Christian featured 6-foot Bryan Gee, an outstanding point guard. Richmond Heights is a team of guards, headed by Lockett, but Parks gives the Spartans a different dynamic.
"We don't have anyone who can match up against a 6-foot-8 center, who does a good job of clogging the paint on defense," Hackenberg acknowledged.
St. Thomas relied on its defense to dictate the tempo of the game in tournament wins over Heartland Christian, Youngstown Christian, Wellsville, McDonald and Cornerstone Christian.
"We go as our pressure defense goes," Hackenberg stressed.
Priah subscribes to the same mind-set.
"We harp on playing good defense," he added after the Malvern win. "Offense wins games, but defense wins championships."
Richmond Heights' first four tournament games illustrate its defensive focus. It eliminated Lutheran East 59-23, Lake Ridge Academy 71-21, Kidron Central Christian 44-41 in overtime, Garfield Heights Trinity 44-20 and Malvern.
St. Thomas starts 6-foot-3 senior Austin Hill, 6-foot junior Anthony Moeglin, 5-foot-9 senior Sam Pusateri, 5-foot-10 junior Dan Piero and 5-foot-9 sophomore Jacob Paul, with 6-foot-1 junior Frank DiMarzio, 6-foot-1 senior Jimmy Donnelly and 5-foot-6 junior Pete Ruthe completing the eight-player rotation.
Before the Spartans played the Hornets in the regional semifinal, Priah watched St. Thomas dominate Cornerstone Christian and was impressed by the Knights.
"They buy into the team concept and are hard workers," Priah added. "They are disciplined on offense and do a great job running their sets. They also play great defense."
Richmond Heights has six losses, but four were to Cleveland Division I regional semifinalist Jackson (87-58), and Division I Brunswick (67-52) and Berea Midpark (70-54), Canton Division III regional qualifier Villa Angela-St. Joseph (90-50).
"We scheduled those games to test us and find out what we needed to learn," said Priah, who smiled. "We learned we have to be ready from the start of the game and expect a fight for four quarters."

Next week, I will be holding a free coaching session called "Side Income Blogging" which will show you the nitty-griddy details of making a nice side-income from your blog-based business.
If you are interested in making a little cash from your blog then you need to be on this coaching call. Register for one of the 100 open spots here.
We're going to have fun. But in the meantime – here's the #1 question people are asking –
Wait – Why only a "Side Income?"
I'm a realist. I know that you can't make a six-figure income with your blog overnight. You know it too.
But you can make a decent side income that grows every month. How fast that income grows depends on your product, readers, and strategy but I absolutely believe you can make a couple hundred bucks a month working about as hard you do know.
Start with these six pointers:
Have the Right Objective
First, realize that businesses make money. Businesses are focused on creating products, creating customers, and creating profit. You need to put on your business hat not your writer's hat to achieve your income goals.
Remember that their isn't anything magical about blogs. They are easy to support, easy to customize, and a ton of fun to build but they aren't income generators right out of the box.
Blogs are great marketing tools but you need to have a business first.
Set Practical Goals
The first goal should be to make a small side income. I started with the goal of making $100/month which basically covered my gas money for the week. I kept building from there as the business behind the Pushing Social blog matured.
I urge you to set similar, small-step, practical goals.
Once you have the goal, print it out and keep it close to you . This isn't new advice, but it is probably the most ignored goal-achievement "sure-thing" out there. Something happens when you are ready to write down what you intend to do.
In the webinar, I'll teach you how to create a "Six Pack" To Do List that makes setting goals effective and fun.
Create a Blueprint
I have a thing for blueprints. My uncle Albert is an incredible carpenter (and geek). I remember him sketching out a rough blueprint before he would strap on his tool belt. The entire project was penciled out with measurements. This was the secret to his almost magical ability to construct almost anything with 2x4s and nails.
Blueprints show what you're building and the steps you need to take. Almost everyone has an idea of what they want to build but often skip over the creating a blueprint!
Winging it will just cost you time and energy. Invest the time to create a step-by-step blueprint to building your side income blog. Once you've finished your blueprint, strap on your tool belt.
Get the Right Tools
I'm going to be Mr. Obvious today. I can get away with it because many bloggers ignore the obvious tools they need to succeed. Here they are:
1. A Product:
You can't make money if you have nothing to sell. Simply writing blog posts will not buy the baby a new pair of shoes. Be careful here – realize that an opinion isn't a product.
One more thing, you will need to create a lot of products on your way to building your business. Get ready to invest for the long-haul.
2. An Email List:
You can't successfully sell much directly from a blog post. Sure you might get one or two sells every once in a while, but your audience is probably too small to generate tons of curiosity sales from your blog post.
Instead, save your relationship-based selling for your email list. Email is still king of the online income jungle and it will put real cash in your pocket. But, of course, you need to start building your email list – now.
3. A Merchant Account or Paypal:
You will need a secure and easy way to collect your customer's money and transfer it to your bank account (minus fees). Square this away before you sell a product.
I started with Paypal and graduated to a fancy Merchant Account once my customers started asking for a non-Paypal option. I find that this path works for most people.
4. A Great Looking Website:
An ugly blog and website scares away customers. A thrown together blogspot template will earn much less than a professionally customized template.
You WILL waste your money trying to polish up a free template. Worse, you'll waste time and momentum.
The last two tools you need are conveniently installed for free on each side of your head…
Start Listening
Pick up the darn phone and ask people what they want. Next describe what you have and would they be willing to buy it. This is a foolproof way of not risking a dime and hitting consistent home runs with your product.
For example, I learned that people loved the advice I gave about designing their blogs – but they didn't want to pay for it. They WOULD happily pay for me to just design their blog for them. It only took a few phone calls to figure this out.
Please start listening to your customers. You are on unsteady ground until you start doing serious customer research.
Get 'er Done.
There are two types of people in the business world: Business Builders and Business Pretenders. I've worked for both.
Business builders figure out what they want, how to get it, and measure themselves based on what they get done.
Business pretenders look busy. They talk a lot. They seem to be connected with all the A-listers. They have terrific plans. But nothing gets done.
Be a business builder.
Will I See You May 1st?
I will be going into more depth about this topic during the Side Income Blogging Webinar next week. I hope to see you on the attendee list. In the meantime, tell me your side income blogging goal in the comments below.

This month, two of Australia's most charismatic and oftentimes wild rockers will be turning their talents to the genteel art of acting.
Tim Rogers, best known as the lead singer of power-pop band You Am I, will be on stage in The Story of Mary MacLane by Herself, a new Australian play at Griffin Theatre, and Tex Perkins (former frontman of the Cruel Sea) will be reviving his Helpmann Award-winning show, The Man in Black: The Johnny Cash Story, at the Sydney Opera House.
Both have electrified thousands of fans in beer barns, rock venues and festivals throughout Australia and overseas. They've also had small roles in film, mostly playing the rock star or small supporting roles.
But can they really act?
''Every acting job I've done so far has been an exaggerated version of myself, someone slightly more evil,'' says Rogers, 42, who made his professional acting debut in 2009 at the Malthouse Theatre in Melbourne, as ''The Entertainer'' in Michael Kantor's production of Woyzeck.
But this is the first time he is playing someone other than himself. ''It's been hard work for me being so still and quiet on stage night after night,'' Rogers says.
In … Mary MacLane, he plays ''The Man'', a servile alter-ego to MacLane, the American memoirist who shocked the public in the early years of the 20th century with her unflinching writing about sexual encounters with men (and desire for women), her narcissism and her ambition to marry the Devil.
The play was performed at Malthouse at the end of last year. Rogers, who also composed the music, received favourable notices, including one from The Age describing him as ''a real talent''.
''At first the character was very nefarious but it changed over time and now he's become an affectionate facilitator,'' Rogers says. ''I really hated that change at first but after I took myself off and drank a crate of wine, I came back realising I was basing my argument on ego and the play really did work better if I played the character as I was told to. It's been a lesson in working in a team and working with a text.''
Rogers says he finds the discipline required in theatre and film exciting.
He is working on three more films, including one directed by Kantor, and he is composing the score to Federico Garcia Lorca's play Blood Wedding, opening at the Malthouse in July.
''Music is all chaos and noise and that's my first love,'' he says. ''But this work is intellectually stimulating. I have to hit marks and be part of a team. I think my intellect is really growing at this late stage. I love the rehearsals and the physical training.
I love theatre audiences. You can hear a pin drop - Tex Perkins.
''I don't want to waste anyone's time because I'm not a trained actor. But I don't want to be this 'Tim Rogers guy' for the rest of my life, either. I'm so grateful to these writers and directors, I just don't want to f--- it up.''
Perkins, 47, says he steered clear of all the ''token rock god'' roles that were offered to him in films. Instead, he chose to play a dog in John Curran's Sundance-nominated film Down Rusty Down, alongside Noah Taylor and Bob Ellis (also playing dogs), and a rowdy Spanish neighbour in Curran's Praise, alongside another rocker-turned-actor, Peter Fenton (of the Sydney band Crow).
''All my scenes in Praise were in a bathrobe,'' Perkins says. ''I've never worn a bathrobe in my life, so that was true acting.''
In The Man in Black, Perkins narrates the life of Johnny Cash, occasionally dropping into character as the man himself.
''I don't have any acting chops or any kind of method,'' he says.
''But when I take on his voice, his mannerisms and his body language just come with it, without too much thought.''
For Perkins, the best thing about theatre is the audience. ''They sit down, shut up and listen,'' he says. ''I love theatre audiences. You can hear a pin drop sometimes and it's amazing how much better my performance is when I know people are really listening.
''But I can't imagine doing 900 shows like the guys in Jersey Boys.''
Rogers says he could take more acting work if it comes up. ''Maybe Tex and I will be meeting up at the Algonquin to wait for the reviews and live the luvvie life.''
The Story of Mary MacLane By Herself plays at SBW Stables, Kings Cross, from Friday. The Man In Black plays at the Sydney Opera House from Tuesday.

Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
Today marks a very exceptional day in this body, one that deserves great praise. The bill before us, H.R. 5651, the FDA Reform Act of 2012, is the product of bipartisanship, collaboration, and compromise that I'm very proud of. The bill is a result of more than a year of negotiations between industry, FDA, and Congress.
In the Energy and Commerce Committee, we held a number of hearings on the critical issues within the bill, and earlier this month it passed unanimously in both subcommittee and full committee. The bill is slightly modified from the bill reported by committee, as it now includes a bipartisan provision which results in the bill reducing the deficit by $370 million over the next 10 years.
The FDA Reform Act will ensure that Americans have access to safe and effective new medicines and medical devices by reauthorizing the user-fee programs for prescription drugs and medical devices. It will reduce drug costs for consumers by speeding the approval of lower-cost generic drugs with the establishment of new user-fee programs for generic drugs and for lower-cost versions of biotech drugs.
The bill will also reform and revitalize many FDA programs to improve its regulatory scheme to facilitate a more efficient and predictable review process.
Mr. Speaker, the bill also makes permanent two complementary programs, the Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act and the Pediatric Research Equity Act, which both help to foster the development and safe use of prescription drugs for children.
In addition, a significant improvement was made to the FDA's ability to police an ever-growing global drug supply chain to improve patient safety, and these provisions will give the FDA critical tools it needs to keep our medicine safer.
It also includes important provisions to help prevent and mitigate drug shortages by requiring that drugmakers notify the FDA in advance of any expected disruption in the supply of certain critical drugs, and for the FDA to inform health care providers of the potential drug shortage.
I want to thank Chairman Upton and Chairman Pitts, Ranking Member Waxman, Mr. Dingell, and my other colleagues on the committee for their leadership and dedication to this important piece of legislation, a special thanks to the staffs, in particular my staff person, Tiffany Guarascio, who's to my right. But on both sides of the aisle, the staff worked hard, and they should be very proud of what we've accomplished.
Reauthorizing and revitalizing the FDA user-fee system is a critical investment to our Nation's public health.
Mr. Speaker, I urge all Members of the House to vote ``aye.''
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I just want to say in closing that I think it's a great example with this bill of what we can do, not only in the Energy and Commerce Committee but in general in this House, on a bipartisan basis when everyone works together for a common goal.
This is actually a very important piece of legislation. It's important for the pharmaceutical industry. It's important in terms of job creation. It's important in terms of innovation and also bringing low-cost drugs to the American people. Without the type of bipartisan cooperation we had, we would not have been able to get here with this time schedule, which is truly amazing. So I want to thank everyone. I would like to say that I hope that we can do similar good work in the remainder of this Congress, and I would urge my colleagues to vote ``aye.''
I yield back the balance of my time.

Corn futures are trading higher at midday. Sharply higher soybeans and wheat are helping to boost the corn market. The dollar is weaker while crude oil is a slightly higher. Weekly export inspections for corn were soft at 22.2 million bushels. One news service poll pegs pre-release trade estimates for corn acreage at 94.7 million acres, up 2.8 or 3% from a year ago. May corn is 8 1/4 cents higher at $6.54 1/2. The December contract is 4 cents higher at $5.61 1/2.
Soybean futures are trading higher at midsession. Another private forecasting service in Brazil reduced its projection for the harvest. The latest was a cut to 66.7 million tonnes, down two percent, by AgRural. A Chinese government source projected China's soybean imports higher than the recent USDA forecast. A weak dollar and higher prices for other commodities including gold and crude oil are giving support. May is 20 3/4 cents higher at $13.86 1/2 and November is 13 1/2 cents higher at $13.36.
Wheat futures are trading higher at midday. There are two driving factors. One is ongoing alarm at drought stress already showing up in SE Europe, particularly Spain, Portugal and Southern France. But a new factor that just developed over the weekend was a mass of cold Canadian air expected to bring frost and freezes to the northern half of the Plains region this week, possibly dipping into HRW areas of NE Colorado and Kansas as well. And, there's another mass of cold air in the charts for next week over much of the Midwest, a possible threat to SRW wheat in the MidSouth. CBOT May is 15 1/2 cents higher at $6.69 3/4, KCBOT May is 12 3/4 cents higher at $7.07 1/4 and MGE May is 13 1/4 cents higher at $8.30 1/2.
Cattle futures are trading mixed at midday. The Cattle on Feed report released after the close on Friday showed cattle on feed only slightly higher than expected, but with weakening beef prices, the report didn't provide any offsetting positive news. Marketings were a little lighter than expected which reinforced concern about a building backlog of market-ready cattle. However, futures are becoming oversold and gains in the stock market and weaker dollar are supportive. April cattle futures are 10 cents higher at $124.60 and June is 3 cents higher at $121.13.
Lean hog futures are trading lower at midday. The decline in pork prices continued on Friday with the pork cutout dropping to $79.67 per cwt. For processors to make a profit, they can afford to pay about $75 for hogs, instead of the $81 they are currently paying. These poor pork prices continue to keep downward pressure on hog futures contracts. Early reports show cash hog prices down again on Monday. April is 58 cents lower at $84.45 and June is 38 cents lower at $91.85.

Houston's Top 5 Macaroons
The macaroon is a sort of existentially confused food. In France, a macaroon is a colorful cookie sandwich. In the U.S., we generally think of coconut macaroons first, but they are often made with nuts as well. Rumor (or Wikipedia) has it that in Australia, macaroons often have a jam filling - so jealous! At any rate, screw the cupcake fad - here are five of the best macaroons in Houston.
Photos by Nikki Metzgar
5. Three Brother's Bakery You can't tell from the outside, but the recently reopened Three Brother's Bakery has a sleek new interior. Like many desserts here, the macaroon is a classic. It's moist, almost creamy, baked brown on the outside and dipped in chocolate on both ends - a combination that never grows old.
The rest, after the jump.
4. French Gourmet Instead of petite pink macaroons or knobby coconut morsels, French Gourmet sticks to pecan macaroons. They're small, round, firm on the outside and chewy on the inside. If you like nuts, you'll like these.
3. Rustika Even though Rustika is known for its empanadas, it's difficult to come away from the bakery without a macaroon. Rustika's macaroon gets the top prize for sheer size, measuring in at the same diameter as a baseball. These excellent coffee companions are buttery and sugary with the plump coconut shreds achieving a nice golden toast on top. Try one warmed up with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
2. Kenny & Ziggy's Sadly, the macaroon at Kenny & Ziggy's is the only item in the restaurant that isn't oversize. With coconut, studs of chocolate and nuts, a chocolate bottom and powdered sugar dusting, it's the showiest interpretation of the macaroon on the list, yet it actually has incredible balance. The ingredients meld together evenly and, in a way, this macaroon is a richer, thicker version of the chocolate chip cookie.
1. Andre's This golden brown lump of superfine coconut is shaped like a computer mouse, and it's so moist, it's sticky. It falls apart at the touch and sticks to the paper bag it comes in, your fingers and the plate. It's heaven. The crust, where the sugar has caramelized like the first day of fall, is the best part.

Encyclopedia Dubuque
"Encyclopedia Dubuque is the online authority for all things Dubuque, written by the people who know the city best."
Marshall Cohen—researcher and producer, CNN
From Encyclopedia Dubuque
This tile was kilned in Holland for the roof of the Orpheum Theater now restored as part of the FIVE FLAGS CIVIC CENTER. When the theater was constructed in 1910 it was considered the finest theater in Iowa.
The theater was designed by C. W. and George Rapp, the nation's leading theater designers of the early 20th century. Architecturally the theater is an adaptation of SECOND EMPIRE ARCHITECTURE inspired by a theater in Paris, France.
The theater at 405 Main was restored and given to the people of Dubuque on March 13, 1976.

How to See and Remember God's Kindness09648_000_030
When our children were very small, I started to write down a few things about what happened every day. I never missed a day no matter how tired I was or how early I would have to start the next day. Before I would write, I would ponder this question: "Have I seen the hand of God reaching out to touch us or our children or our family today?" As I kept at it, something began to happen. As I would cast my mind over the day, I would see evidence of what God had done for one of us that I had not recognized in the busy moments of the day. As that happened, and it happened often, I realized that trying to remember had allowed God to show me what He had done.
More than gratitude began to grow in my heart. Testimony grew. I became ever more certain that our Heavenly Father hears and answers prayers. I felt more gratitude for the softening and refining that come because of the Atonement of the Savior Jesus Christ. And I grew more confident that the Holy Ghost can bring all things to our remembrance—even things we did not notice or pay attention to when they happened.
Seek the Holy Ghost
I urge you to find ways to recognize and remember God's kindness. It will build our testimonies. The key to the remembering that brings and maintains testimony is receiving the Holy Ghost as a companion. It is the Holy Ghost who helps us see what God has done for us. It is the Holy Ghost who can help those we serve to see what God has done for them.
Pray and Ponder
Tonight, and tomorrow night, you might pray and ponder, asking the questions: Did God send a message that was just for me? Did I see His hand in my life? I will do that. And then I will find a way to preserve that memory for the day. I testify that He loves us and blesses us, more than most of us have yet recognized.
How Have You Done This?
I write in my journal every night, and I try to record spiritual experiences or blessings the Lord has given me. Then when I go back and read them, I feel the Spirit again.
Chelsey F.
I write about all the good and bad things that happen. When I am worried about something or have problems, I can look at the times I've been blessed and helped, and I know everything will be OK.
Emily P.

Victorians are happier with the state's cab service than they have been in six years, according to a survey by the taxi directorate.
The questionnaire also showed a marked improvement in customer satisfaction over the past 12 months.
So far, for the financial year 2012/13, customers gave Victorian cabs a 69.5 per cent satisfaction rating, up from 66.6 per cent for the previous financial year and 63.6 for 2009/10.
The Victorian Taxi Directorate Customer Satisfaction Monitor is a quarterly survey of 425 cab users.
Victorian Taxi Association (VTA) Deputy CEO David Samuel attributed the results to an improved booking app, driver codes of conduct and the wider use of GPS.
"Over the past 12 months the taxi industry has been taking the initiative and implementing new ideas that are producing results," Mr Samuel said in a statement.
"It's clear that this is paying off and that customers are receiving a better service."
Customers indicated they were pleased with the level of personal security in cabs, the taxi booking service and the fares and payment system.
They were least pleased with the process of finding a taxi on the street.

The gas leak at Total's wellhead platform on the Elgin gas field in the North Sea is not as serious as BP's Deepwater Horizon accident in 2010, said Fitch Ratings on Wednesday.
The ratings agency added that even in the event of a shutdown of the whole Elgin field, it believes that Total is likely to retain its 'AA' credit rating as it has the cash resources to more than cover any associated costs.
"The Elgin leak is a surface gas leak rather than an underwater oil leak, making its potential for environmental damage far lower than in the Deepwater Horizon case," said Fitch in a press statement Wednesday. "These sorts of accidents are often difficult to resolve and unpredictable; nonetheless, in our view the potential is low for this leak to escalate to a crisis on the scale of Deepwater Horizon. Total's preliminary assessment suggests there has been no significant impact on the environment and the use of dispersants has not been considered."
However, Fitch added that it had considered a "worse-than-base-case" scenario where Total may have to shut down the Elgin field to stop the gas leak. "This would imply the loss of a producing field that is worth, in net present value terms, EUR 5.7 billion [$7.6 billion] according to third-party valuations. Were the field to become permanently unusable it would cost Total EUR 2.6 billion [$3.5 billion] and the company might have to compensate its partners for the remaining EUR 3.1 billion [$4.1 billion]," Fitch said.
On Tuesday Dow Jones reported a source saying that the proximity of vessels owned by Transocean and Rowan to the Elgin platform may sway Total's decision in hiring a firm to drill relief wells to cap the leak.
Currently, Transocean's Sedco 714 (mid-water semisub) is drilling for Total in the North Sea, while a Rowan jack-up rig was used for drilling work at Elgin.
Total said Tuesday it is studying all options and could take time to make a decision, while dismissing reports that claimed the company had indicated it could take up to six months to drill a relief well.
"They are not details that have come from us at all," a Total spokesperson told Rigzone Tuesday morning, explaining that the company did not yet have a timescale in place regarding the drilling of a relief well.
Meanwhile, Royal Dutch Shell reported Tuesday that it removed oil workers from two of its North Sea rigs due to the proximity to Total's Elgin/Franklin platform.
In a statement, Shell said it had reduced personnel on its Shearwater platform and the nearby Nobel Hans Deul drilling rig. Drilling operations on the Noble Hans Deul (400' ILC) rig, which is located offshore Scotland 138 miles east of Aberdeen, have been suspended and the wells "left in a safe state," said Shell.
"While the move is purely precautionary and primarily driven by the prevailing weather conditions, and both facilities remain operational, it has been decided to reduce numbers to a more manageable level until the full situation surrounding the Elgin leak has been established," said a Shell spokesperson.
Shell also reported Tuesday that it is using the downtime as an opportunity to conduct maintenance on one of its rigs.
"Further to the precautionary safety measures we took yesterday following Total's gas leak at Elgin, we have no brought forward plans to carry out maintenance at Shearwater. This will take place from today, starting four days ahead of schedule. We are therefore shutting down production in a controlled manner," said a Shell spokesperson.
Total reported Monday that it had evacuated the Elgin platform's crew and that all 238 personnel had been accounted for.

ElviM | Mar. 29, 2012this is most probably an underground blow out with the HP gas breaking out the formation aroung the last casing shoe above. To kill this kind of blowout requires than a relief well to intercept the blowing well just in the kicking formation. An alternative bullheading followed by a huge cement job may also kill the well but this will result in an impressive enviromental water pollution.
Daniel Dominick | Mar. 29, 2012Is this occurence even worse than the b.p. incident, in that they have actually damaged the rock formation. It might be hard to cap a well but it can be done. Is drilling a relief well going to make that much of a difference Have they been using the contravercial fracking methods and if so should the industry be reassessing the use of these methods. What if this had been onshore. The release of these gases could wipe out whole towns. Thats assuming they would never allow it near a city. No one is giving any estimations of the volumes involved, of which they must have a fair idea.
steve | Mar. 28, 2012If it was above the subsea safety valves it would be shut in already, assuming they worked of course. So it must be below them on the riser or a formation issue
Russell | Mar. 28, 2012If this is a leak at the surface, is it really necessary to drill a relief well? Are there no options for repairing a failed seal or other defect at the surface?

At its essence, performance enhancement breaks
down a sport into its intrinsic movements and makes those movements betterwhether stronger, more agile, faster, more stable, or less fatigued.
But to truly enhance them, those movements must be dissected and diagnosed so that athletic domination can occur.
3-D analysis reveals proper sequencing for increased power and distance
The need for biomechanical analysis has become fundamental in any sport with complex movements. New to the amateur sports world, Athletic Edge...in 3-D
is a Biomechanical Motion Analysis which displays for coaches, parents and athletes definitive data on joint angles, body positions, velocity, and energy
transfer during a repeatable sport-specific (and often position-specific) movement. Even at the top levels, athletes eventually break down after their
physical compensations create enough stress on the system. Baseball pitchers, for one, are notorious for their problems with mechanicsthink of the number
of pitchers getting "Tommy John Surgery," a now-common procedure named after a successful Major League pitcher!
Biomechanical analysis can help increase both
pitching velocity and accuracy
For pitchers and varied athletes alike, 3-D Biomechanical Motion Analysis will directly lead to improved performance and injury prevention. It will identify
"power leaks" and their causes, so that incomplete sports training can develop into superior performance-enhancement. To detail a few achievable goals:
throwers will see better command of pitches, increased velocity and number of pitches, with significant reduction of elbow, shoulder and back pain; hitters
will see more power output and higher batting average; runners will benefit from increased stride rate, stride length and lowered risk of leg muscle strains;
golfers will get more distance and straighter drives from a more consistent swing, with less fatigue and body aches.
Motion analysis can also significantly help reduce the risk of injury
Regardless of a particular style or school of thought for sports techniques, from a mechanics standpoint, the body can only move optimally in one way.
This is due to the alignment of bones, the direction of muscle fibers and the designated contractile properties of those fibers. For example, think
about a complex rotational movement: hitting a baseball, swinging a golf club, serving a tennis ball, throwing a javelin, taking a lacrosse shot on goal,
hitting a hockey puck into a net, etc. These very different sports all rely on rotational movements, and since the body can only rotate its parts in one
ideal way, these seemingly individual sports rely on the same sequencing of parts.
The planes of the action might be different, but the ideal chain of movements, or kinematic sequence, is the same. Starting with the feet, each body
segment must transfer energy efficiently to the next. Power created from the push of the feet travels up the legs and then through the rotating 1)
pelvis, 2) torso, 3) arms and finally to the 4) bat/driver/racquet/stick/etc. This sequencing is what creates optimal power and consistency and reduces
the risk of injury. But the subtleties of such movements are undetectable by the naked eye and even standard 2-D video.
With the Athletic Edge
in 3-D system, an athletes mechanics — whether for running, throwing, swinging, kicking, cycling, squatting, jumping, etc.
— are analyzed using electromagnetic body sensors, real-time motion-capture video, and state-of-the-art computer software. The analysis generates
a 3-D digital animation, which allows people to understand every aspect of their movements, while assessing proper kinetic sequence, body posture,
range-of-motion, etc. Seeing data broken down to 240 frames per second (the human eye can only see between 30 and 60 frames per second) and with accuracy
up to 1/10th of a degree, it becomes easy to pin-point the exact, undetectable moment when a complex motion might be creating stress or negatively affecting
performance. And with that detailed biomechanical data, training or rehab can become completely individualized and, therefore, markedly more dramatic.
Before submitting to any 3-D motion analysis, athletes and their coaches should be sure that the professionals administering the tests can intelligently
decipher the data and actually dismantle it to facilitate the necessary development. Athletic Edge...in 3-D is the culmination of our staff having studied
with some of the world's most renowned biomechanists. And taking our knowledge where no scientists had gone before, Athletic Edge conducted the country's
first biomechanical research study on the Lacrosse shot. This commitment to the importance of the offering and of the excellence that it brings to training
puts our staff in a unique position within the field.
In addition to the computerized assessment, Athletic Edge...in 3-D can provide physical screens to divulge whether the biomechanical errors are a result
of technical problems or physical limitations. Factors affecting performance could include posture, functional strength, power, balance, mobility, stability,
endurance or coordination. This deduction is also crucial to getting the motions truly corrected and the athlete's training devoted to success.
While 3-D Biomechanical Motion Analysis and corresponding physical screens are conducted one-on-one at our Scotch Plains facility, the portability of the
system allows us to travel to accommodate groups or teams as well. For more information, please contact us.

A goal two minutes from time from Jamie Sedman kept Bubwith White Swan's promotion hopes on track after they came from behind to beat visitors Hambleton 2-1 in division two of the Ian's Cars of Barlby York Sunday Morning League.
Hambleton took an early first-half lead but a goal from Tom Robinson restored parity before Sedman's late winner.
Albion Vaults beat visitors York Nomads 6-2 led by a hat-trick from Dave Hullah.
Nomads started stronger and were denied an early lead by Albion goalkeeper Dan Montgomery.
But Vaults gradually took control with a brace from Hullah followed by a Tom Wheatlands' reply for a 2-1 half-time score.
Albion went 3-1 up just after the restart though and Hullah completed his triple blast. Chris Coxon and Paul Tanton completed the rout, with James Haig bagging Nomads' second.
Drax striker James Barrett netted his fourth hat-trick of the season with a four-goal haul in a 6-3 win over York Phoenix. Neil Harrison and Stuart Harrison were the other marksmen, while the Phoenix scorers were Nick Horne (2) and Fabio Andrade.

All right thinking people will see if their hopes and dreams have been realised by about 5pm on Saturday. Here are the numbers.
Not a fantastic position to be in, but better than we could have hoped for even a few weeks ago.
I'm going with The Boy Named Sue on Saturday.
If you pray, say one for us?
The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to complain about it.

Sorry, Paulie. Apart from my Swinton RL habit, I'm also a lifelong Bolton fan. We kick off at 5.15pm saturday, and any prayers will be saved for the superwhites. The situation at the bottom of the prem is causing arguments involving pocket calculators and recalls Bismark's comments on the Schleswig-Holtstein situation. I was on the phone for half an hour last night with my sister trying to work out what result we want from the Brum-Fulham fixture. Believe me, and I bet you know, its a lot easier if its promotion.

U.K. Retailer Tips Predictions of New iPod touch
U.K. retailer John Lewis has let slip what it believes to be a refresh of the Apple iPod touch, based on what is assumed to be conversations with Apple.
In short, the new touch is believed to be essentially an iPhone 4 without the phone component, U.K. blog Pocket-Lint reported.
According to Rob Hennessey, a buyer for John Lewis, the new touch will include an improved 5-Mpixel camera that can shoot HD video, an accelerometer and gyroscope. the new device will also reportedly include FaceTime calling, although a Wi-Fi connection would have to be used.
Hennessey also reportedly said that the revamped touch will have an additional focus on social networking.
At this point, all of this information is unconfirmed, although, as a retailer, one might suspect that John Lewis would have inside information. And a September release date for a new touch wouldn't be out of the realm of speculation, as Apple has released a new iPod touch, like clockwork, in the first few days of September in 2007, 2008, and 2009.
It's probably reasonable to believe that a revamped touch would use the same A4 silicon as is in the iPad and

Stipa spartea
Grass Family (Poaceae)
Habitat/Range: Common in dry upland prairies of the northern tallgrass region, and occasionally southward to southern Missouri and southern Illinois.
Plants grow in small tufts, with unbranched stems up to 4 feet tall. The leaves are long and slender. Typically, there are hairs on the upper surfaces of the leaves. The seeds are narrow and long (.5-1 inch) with a sharp, pointed, furry base and a very long, twisting awn.
Also called "Needle and Thread" grass because of its needle sharp fruit tip and long awn. The sharp-pointed seeds can injure livestock.
