Who loves Tinsley? I LOVE TINSLEY
Ohh and the Crowd, IT WAS AMAZING. I loved the crowd tonight. Pumped the team up alot on the comeback.
Great moral victory tonight! With Danny and Peja we're definitely set at the SF spot.

Great team effort. Granger & Tins excellent games. Despite the early deficit I had a feeling we'd win. Just didn't think we'd let Ron-Ron show us up on the home court. Think SAC may have fallen into a bit of a trap by such sizzling early shooting (over 70% 1st quarter).
Patiently waiting for the people that want to trade Tinsley in the offseason to arrive and say we can get a better pg...
Let's not forget Fosters agressiveness on the boards.
An all around fantastic win tonight. Tinsley played excellent as did Peja and Granger. This come from behind win has me optimistic about the future. I also hope that this somewhat diminishes all the hate people have for Tinsley. It's clear who the better PG is but let's not downplay AJ's performance tonight. He had 9 assists and a 1-2 punch of Tinsley and AJ is pretty lethal. AJ will give us a spark off the bench once Tinsley returns as the starter.
Danny Granger is the man. After that flagrant foul, he just took over with his sweet jump shot. Its like you get the feeling that when he shoots the ball, its gonna go in. Oh, and he also had 2 blocks and 2 steals.
This kid............hasnt even reached his full potential.
"Remember the pain of my fist. That is my power!"
Definitely a good game tonight though.
*This does not include AJ or Saras, or even anyone near that level.
This space for rent.
Granger has the heart of a champion, and a jumper to boot.
Definitely. At this point I'm convinced that he's going to be at least as good as Tayshaun Prince. I'm expecting him to eventually be better than Prince, of course.Originally Posted by Fireball Kid
yeeee friggin' ha. After the last few heartbreakers, it's nice to have one flip our way. Even nicer to do it against the Kings.
Go Peja, Go Granger!
No Linking to your own site if it sells something.
Man, that felt GOOD!
First - an open apology to Tinsley. I didn't think he would work well in the new offense. I didn't think he would be 100% for a while. I didn't think he would deserve to start. I was wrong on all accounts. I hate it when that happens.
Second - Artest. I hope the kings fans were paying attention. This is the Artest you traded for, like it or not.
Third - The Harrison regression. Somebody please talk to that guy again about complaining to the refs.
Last - the player of the game, the real savior of our season - Danny Granger. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that he would be this good this early in his career. Thank you for demanding a trade, Ron. Seriously, If you hadn't done that, well, I don't even want to think about how much good basketball I would have missed.
GREAT GAME, good win!
a few things I liked were...
Tinsley in at crunch time.
Jackson on the bench for a long breather till about the 6min mark in the 4th. Ever think maybe the reason he misses all those shots at crunch time is he is really tired?
Danny Granger took this game personally, he is something else. Is he going to be our best player? full balls
and for all the Runi fanbwois... Runi on the bench
I could tell Ron wanted to win so bad, too much so. It was reminscent of a pistons playoff game where he kept trying to do it all himself. Not one of his better 2nd halfs.
Great entertaining game
To be fair - bibby can't guard my computer chair and it is missing a wheel
Vulpes pilum mutat, non mores!
1. Bonzi is a punk.....
2. Granger was awsome...Ron who????
3. Tinsley needs more minutes... great to see him finish the game.
4. Pollard looked really cool with his Roy Orbison look...
5. Oh and Peja rocks...
Didn't see this rolling when I put mine up. Admins, feel free to merge.
Ohh and not to be forgoten Jack, big props to Jack. Even though Ron probably got him by like 50 pounds, Jack was in the paint guarding Ron strong, and he rebounded the ball very well tonight.
He made 3 big buckets when we went down 6 in the 4th. He didnt force it tonight and when Ron was on him he didnt try to shoot at all always looking to make the pass. Big ups Jack.
I think that if I were the type of guy who named one particular Pacer "my favorite Pacer", it'd be Danny Granger.
You're caught up in the Internet / you think it's such a great asset / but you're wrong, wrong, wrong
All that fiber optic gear / still cannot take away the fear / like an island song
- Jimmy Buffett
Was it just me or did Jack seem to be more judicious about just hoisting whenever when he was in down the stretch? He hit a couple important shots and I only recall one miss late.Originally Posted by Burtrem Redneck
Early he was trying to get going, but late I thought he didn't seem to force as much as usual. Plus he did some other things passing and rebounding to contribute. Also, interesting that SAC elected to start the game with Artest on him and not Peja.
When Rick sets Harrison up in the Jermaine role ie: pound it inside to him and let him go to work Harrison is not effective (yet) When he just has David in there to clog the lane get rebounds and let the pg's get him open dunks when they see he is open he is extremely effective.
Can we never see AJ in the last few minutes of a close game? edit: at pg I am fine with him in at sg
I remember showing up to a game last year 2 hours early, and he was out there working his 3pt shot. I watched him hit about 25 in a row.
I think if he could get a good rest at the start of the 4th till about halfway through... like they used to do with Reggie Miller, he would be much more effective at the end of the game.
Can he stay healthy

Atrioventricular canal defect is a combination of heart problems resulting in a defect in the center of the heart. The condition occurs when there's a hole between the heart's chambers and problems with the valves that regulate blood flow in the heart.
Sometimes called endocardial cushion defect or atrioventricular septal defect, atrioventricular canal defect is present at birth (congenital). The condition is often associated with Down syndrome.
Atrioventricular canal defect allows extra blood to flow to the lungs. The extra blood forces the heart to overwork, causing the heart muscle to enlarge.
Untreated, atrioventricular canal defect can cause heart failure and high blood pressure in the lungs. Doctors generally recommend surgery during the first year of life to close the hole in the heart and to reconstruct the valves.

- How to Read a Study Record
Patients will be randomised after surgery, provided surgery is macroscopically adequate, that there is a flap of tissue protecting the vascular axis and that wound healing allows reirradiation to begin less than 8 weeks after surgery.Reirradiation will begin in the two arms less than 8 weeks after surgery in the irradiated area. The reirradiated volume : tumour bed + a safety margin of < 2 cm with immediate protection of bone marrow. This volume should be jointly defined by the radiotherapist and the surgeon. During reirradiation, 60 Gy will be delivered in the two arms but will last 11 weeks in the reference arm and 5 weeks in the investigational arm.Acute toxicity (NCI-CTCAE) will be evaluated at the end of reirradiation and at 6 months from randomization (first follow-up consultation)

Our Noise: The Story of Merge Records, the Indie Label That Got Big and Stayed Small
Merge Records defies everything you've heard about the music business. Started by two twenty-year-old musicians, Merge is a lesson in how to make and market great music on a human scale. The fact that the company is prospering in a failing industry is something of a miracle. Yet two of their bands made the Billboard Top 10 list; more than 1 million copies of Arcade Fire's Neon Bible have been sold; Spoon has appeared on Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show; and the Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs is a contemporary classic.
In celebration of their twentieth anniversary, founders Mac and Laura offer first-person accounts—with the help of their colleagues and Merge artists—of their work, their lives, and the culture of makin

'Don't kid yourself. It's nice to gush about team chemistry. But this is business. It's the same for the players as it is for Tom Golisano. During the playoff run, it was easy to forget that the players had gone a year without NHL paychecks and had taken 24 percent salary rollbacks under the new bargaining agreement. The players got crushed by the owners. But they came away with more liberalized free agency.'

Ryan Howard has been placed on the disabled list by the Philadelphia Phillies with knee inflammation.
Howard has been battling knee issues for most of the year and had Achilles' tendon surgery in October of 2011.
Howard was originally in Saturday's lineup against the Atlanta Braves, but was scratched after taking ground balls before the game. He will have a MRI exam on Sunday or Monday. The team has not ruled out knee surgery.
"We can't just think about the short term," Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer. "We have to think about the long term with Ryan as well. We'll be pretty conservative with it. If he needs surgery, we'll take care of it. If he doesn't, we'll try to rehab it and get him back."
First baseman/outfield Darin Ruf has been called up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to take Howard's spot on the roster.
Howard, 33, has struggled. In 81 games, he is hitting .266 with 11 home runs and 43 RBIs. He is in the second year of a five-year, $125 million extension.

Gospel-Driven Ministry
Jesus has left the building. He handed the keys to his understudies. The church is theirs to gather, guard, care, and keep. Unfortunately, that's the picture many people inside and outside the church have of the Christian ministry. From this approach has sprung a host of visions about pastoral ministry: the need to be more therapeutic, more managerial, more relevant, etc. Christians are now sometimes called to be "incarnational" in their ministry, taking Jesus to those marginalized, oppressed, and alienated. It's no wonder that pastoral burnout is so high and church closures are so frequent. When the whole weight of ministry hangs on the shoulders of ordinary men and women, they must strategize and shift course in whatever ways seem necessary to bring about success: the coming of the kingdom of God. Who could possibly manage such a feat?
The Good News
But the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ is that the same one who bore our sufferings and rose for our glory now graces us. The Ascended Lord of heaven and earth rules the church. The human Jesus – still incarnate – reigns and rules, provides and promises. He continues to function as the prophet, the priest, the king. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8), and so we can trust him to give us grace for this week's ministry as much as for all our previous failings and frailties. He has not abandoned his offices, and he has not abdicated his seat at the head of the church.
Knox offers courses in Gospel-Driven Ministry
In my summer course on "Gospel-Driven Ministry," we consider the nature and implications of Christ's action on the church's behalf. We see the gospel as not only surprising grace for sinners but also startling good news for ministers. As John Webster says, "The community of Jesus Christ is a community which is brought into being by the gospel, sustained in life by the gospel and summoned to bear witness to the gospel; and because that is true, the church can only be what it is if its entire life and activity emerges out of the event of starting again with the gospel."
Ironically, it is precisely as we realize that Jesus is the minister that we are freed to really minister. The fear of failure hinders real boldness and integrity, while the fear of rejection shuts down our transparency and honesty. Yet Christ demands a church and a ministry that are true and spiritual. So nothing is more crucial than rich acknowledgement of the love of God in Christ, the ways and works of our God in this time and place. Savoring the fullness of all God continues to be for us in Jesus frees us to live freely and to love fully.
Our mission at Knox Theological Seminary is preparing men and women for ministry that is Christ centered, gospel driven, and mission focused. Learn more today!

Topic: Completely Oddball Question (from a Complete Oddball)
Hi Folks --
Quick question for y'all.
Was doing my usual obsessive research re: this awful disease, and found a journal article about a morbidly obese fellow whose CC was found incidentally after he developed post-op problems following gastric bypass surgery.
Interestingly, any treatment whatsoever was delayed because this poor man's weight was so significant that normal avenues of staging and treatment were not availble to him until he lost enough weight to be able to be scanned by CT, etc. etc.
There is no mention of the his ongoing treatment or outcome, but I did find it interesting in that its the only case I've found in which someone was diagnosed and absolutely no treatment was offered, and yet the patient remained symptom free for a prolonged period (6 months at time article was written.)
So -- the oddball question is: I wonder about the physical state of those of us who've been hit with CC. I am in fact quite overweight, and have lost about 10 pounds in the last few months without "trying" (whether its disease or stress I can't say.) But I have certainly not had the weight loss (or loss of appetite) so common with this illness, and in fact have an embarassingly horrible high BMI.
BUt I am just curious if there is any data or anecdotal information about weight and ICC. It sounds as if an awful lot of folks here were very fit or nearly fit before being diagnosed, and I am curious as to whether weight seems to be any sort of factor and whether it seems to have an effect on outcomes and speed of progression.
If anybody feels like answering that would be interesting; if the whole question seems silly and moot, I understand that as well.
Strength, everyone.

New York -- Social media isn't likely to become an important retail channel anytime soon, according to a new report by PwC. The study, "Demystifying the Online Shopper: 10 Myths of Multichannel Retailing," found that in-store shopping is still center to the shopping experience.
"Our report finds that the physical store remains the centerpiece of the purchase journey, while devices are used significantly for product research and deals," said Susan McPartlin, PwC's U.S. retail & consumer sector leader.
The report addresses 10 myths about multichannel retailing and offers some ideas that companies can consider to keep up with their customers:
1. Social media will soon become an indispensable retail channel.
Social media isn't likely to become an important retail channel anytime soon and currently is a driver for more shopping across all channels, not just online stores.
2. Stores will become mainly showrooms in the future.
For most companies, the physical store remains the centerpiece of the purchase journey. However, companies need to determine how to best drive purchase activity across all of their channels both physical and online. There still is a place for the store to be a showroom — as a supplement for online pure players, rather than a new model for brick-and-mortar retailers.
3. The tablet will overtake the PC as the preferred online shopping device.
Tablets and smart phones won't catch up any time soon as these devices are used at the end of the purchase journey, particularly in-store, while shopping.
4. As the world gets smaller, global consumers are becoming more similar.
A wide range of local differences in consumer behavior exists, and retailers still need to cater to local trends.
5. China is the future model for online retail.
China is at the forefront of some key trends, but its multichannel and online model is unique to the culture, as shopping habits are dramatically different in China.
6. Domestic retailers will always enjoy a 'home field' advantage over global retailers.
Foreign retailers are making inroads into consumers' lists of favorite multichannel retailers. However, retailers need to keep in mind that it's not just the local base of domestic retailers they compete with, but with global players as well.
7. Global online pure players will always enjoy a scale advantage over domestic online pure players.
Many domestic online pure players are holding their own as they have better access to local market knowledge.
8. Retailers are inherently better positioned than brands, as they are closest to the customer.
Consumers are shopping directly from manufacturers and many no longer distinguish between retailers and their favorite brands. Retailers need to utilize core strengths including warranty programs and email promotions that drive traffic in-store.
9. Online retail is cannibalizing sales in other channels.
Consumers are actually spending more with their favorite multichannel retailers, not just shifting some purchases to a different channel.
10. Low price is the main driver of customer spend at favorite retailers.
Customers value quality, innovative brands over price when shopping at their favorite multichannel retailers.
In the study, 49% of survey participants said they use social media every day, but only 12% are using social platforms to shop. Instead, a significant 59% use social media to follow, discover and give feedback on brands and retailers. PwC found that social media is not a major traffic driver to online stores, as 45% of consumers continue to shop in a physical store daily or weekly.

A couple have spoken of their heartache after their tiny nine-day-old son lost his brave battle for life.
Daniel Steinberger was born three-and-a-half months premature to former East Lancashire health and beauty student Leanne and her American husband Michael.
But after coming into the world at just 1lb 10ozs, and a short life spent hooked up to a ventilator, he passed away in the couple's arms.
Leanne's mother Wendy Hurst, from Barnoldswick, has flown over to the States to help support the 27-year-old and Michael, at their home near San Benardino, California.
The Steinbergers kept a bedside vigil and as he reached a week old the baby's condition appeared to stabilise. But on the ninth day they received a call from the hospital and medics told them they could do nothing more for little Daniel.
Leanne said: "Our hearts are broken. I've never felt pain like it before in my life. I cannot understand how everything went from being so great to such a nightmare.
"One minute I'm planning a baby shower, maternity photo shoots, etc, and now we are planning our baby's funeral."
Her plight has touched the hearts of friends back in East Lancashire, who are backing an appeal in Daniel's memory to meet hospital and funeral costs.
Ex-schoolfriend Nikita Smith, who attended West Craven High with Leanne, has arranged a "Nine Miles for Nine Days" fancy dress walk from Barnoldswick to Colne in memory of Daniel.
Nikita, 28, who now lives in Colne with husband Norman and eight-year-old son Dominic, said: "There was nothing I could do to take the pain away
"But obviously they don't have an NHS over there and there are still some medical bills and the cost of Daniel's funeral.
"They have been trying for a baby for so long and they are a really lovely couple."
An appeal in California, supported by family and friends over there, has so far collected more than £1,200 of their £1,500 target. The couple have planned a small service for Daniel.
Leanne, who first met Michael in 2007 and was married in April 2010, has said she and her husband have amazing friends and detailed their heartache on an appeal website.
Nikita, who also studied health and beauty with Leanne at Craven College, said that she has been "overwhelmed" by the response to her fancy dress walk plans.
It will take place next Sunday, January 26, from 9am, setting off from Barnoldswick Library en-route to The Langroyd, in Colne, before returning to the West Craven town.
Would-be walkers can pick up sponsorship forms at Shambles and Katie's Nail Salon, in Barnoldswick, and the Co-op food store in Colne.

U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) has been trying to get a face-to-face meeting with U.S. Department of Labor Secretary Hilda Solis on proposed regulations governing child labor on farms. But she has declined, leaving it up to her staff.
He even invited her to come to Kansas and meet with farm families.
Solis did hear his objections to the proposed regulations a few weeks ago when she appeared in front of a congressional subcommittee.
However, if further attempts to convince her fail, legislative efforts are under way to keep the regulations from taking effect.
Moran, along with Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), is sponsoring such legislation in the Senate to go along with legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives by Rep. Tom Latham (R-Iowa).
Instead of accepting the Department of Labor's contention (as well as the Department of Agriculture's) that the proposed regulations aren't to worry about, Moran is fighting back.
"I'm going to worry. I'm going to worry on behalf of Kansas constituents and I am going to worry on behalf of American family farmers," he told an AgriTalk radio audience on Tuesday. "I just see this as a huge issue."
He called some of the provisions "terribly offensive" and symptomatic of the "ever-expanding role of government in our lives."
Among other things, the proposed regulations would prohibit children under the age of 16 from operating certain farm machinery, working at elevations over 6 feet, or doing anything that would inflict harm on an animal.
"If the regulations are taken at their face value, a young person would be prohibited from using a battery-driven screwdriver, Moran said.
And it also raises questions about the role of government.
"If the federal government, in this case the Department of Labor, can regulate the relationship between parents and their own children working on their own farms, what is off-limits for the federal government to be involved in?' he asked.
Officials from the Department of Agriculture point out that the regulations will not apply to children who work for their parents. Yet, questions remain as to whom the children work for in the case of farm corporations and farm partnerships, and the Department of Labor announced last month that it would re-visit the "parental exemption" clause in those cases.
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack has acknowledged that farm work is an American tradition "and it teaches kids lessons that last a lifetime."
"However, statistics show that while only 4 percent of working youth are in the agricultural sector, 40 percent of fatalities of working kids are associated with machines, equipment or facilities related to agriculture. That's way too high," Vilsack said in December. "We don't want to blur the line between teaching kids about a good day's work and putting them in situations more safely handled by adults."
Yet, it is unclear how the government would enforce such regulations.
Moran says time is getting short. He has heard that the Department of Labor intends to finalize the regulations this summer — probably July. In the meantime, people can go to the web site www.keepfamiliesfarming.com where comments are being solicited and will be forwarded to the Department of Labor.

At their best, linen suits allow a man to dress up while enjoying a level of comfort more commonly associated with loungewear. They also tap into the contemporary appetite for relaxed tailoring, and offer the perfect answer to the perennial summer question, "How do I look sharp when it's boiling hot?"
It wasn't always like this. In the past men only wore linen suits in places that we'd now consider a pair of swim shorts and a T-shirt to be more appropriate - one thinks of Sir Dirk Bogarde's suit-wearing character in the film Death in Venice sweating by the lido. These days linen suits are more appropriate in town than they are on the beach, and thanks to the general relaxation of dress codes they can be worn almost anywhere.
However, pale colours are still less formal than dark ones, so cream suits are most appropriate for weekend wear, relatively casual weddings and creative offices. Save dark suits for events in the evening, formal weddings in hot climes and serious business environments. Finally, whatever the colour, and whatever the event, enjoy the breeze, and relax into the wrinkles that are an inevitable part of wearing a pure linen suit.

Just as the title suggests, would you trade Granger for Al Jefferson if we could sign Melo in 2011?
We have a lot of money available in 2011. Tinsley, Murphy, Dunleavy, Foster and Ford all come off the books. If we were to sign Melo and then trade Granger to the T'Wolves for Jefferson, would you be happier?
Quite frankly I would! Its a bold move to be made be the franchise. Yes a lot of people are thinking "why would Melo and Jefferson want to come to Indy", realistically is Colorado and Minni any better?
Our starting PG still still be an issue, but CP3 and Deron are also expiring (but to be honest, we are not getting them) but I am sure TPTB can find a reasonable PG for us that can play defence and distribute the ball

Apple has added the iPad mini promo video that was shown during today's announcement to their official YouTube channel. In this video, Jony Ive describes the goals and design process behind the iPad mini and why 7.9" is the perfect size (and he of course says "aluminum" at some point!), Michael Tchao talks about why "mini" is great and some of the iPad mini's specs, Dan Ricco explains how to get all the same feature of the iPad into the smaller iPad mini, and more.
But...Jobs said the "minimum size" for great tablet apps was 10 inches, and that anything smaller would only work if people sandpapered their fingers to a smaller size.

Day June 20, 2013 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Thank you for, in the June 16 Sunday Gazette-Mail "Perspective" page, printing a photo of Lincoln's proclamation that affirmed the act of Congress making West Virginia a state. That was 150 years ago today, on June 18, so I am celebrating our Sesquicentennial as I write this.How come?Lincoln, a learned, lettered and literate lawyer, signed the proclamation on April 20, 1863, stating, "I . . . declare and proclaim that the said act shall take effect and be in force from and after sixty days from the date hereof."Let's do some arithmetic.Thirty days hath April. The 20th through the 30th of April is 11 days.May always has 31 days.Thirty-one in May, plus 11 in April totals 42.To arrive at the "60 days" Lincoln declared, one must add 18 days in June. Now, as a rough rule of thumb, we generally think of a month as having 30 days, on average, so someone who does a quickie mental calculation on April 20, might surmise that June 20 is 60 days hence. That's probably the mistake one of our ancestors made and no one has caught it until now?Two months is 60 days only in leap years and only if one adds the 31 in January or March to the 29 in February. Otherwise, at no time does the number of days in adjacent months add up to 60.June 20 is unarguably two months from the date of Lincoln's signing, but the proclamation does not say "two months." It is a binding legal document making permanent law, and it plainly says "sixty days."As we have seen, 60 days, including the signing date, takes us to June 18.Even if some legal-eagle sharpshooter tries to somehow stretch the interpretation to exclude the signing date (which Lincoln did not), we still can't reach June 20.So Montani Semper Liberi! and happy belated June 18 Sesquicentennial, my fellow West Virginians! Melius tarde, quam nunquam. (Better late than never.) Shall we change the State Seal art, which shows June 20? The West Virginia Day holiday? Or get a new "birth certificate" from President Obama that "adjusts" the wording?Non credis alienis calculos. (Never trust other people's math.) Cook is an author, artist and inventor who lives in Hurricane and learned arithmetic in public schools of both Virginias.

CNBLUE's Yonghwa denied that he is dating Park Shin Hye asserting that they are just close friends.
The January 26th broadcast of MBC's 'Quiz to Change the World' featured guests Song Chae Hwan, Seo Kyung Suk, CNBLUE, Sayuri and many others.
During the show, Yonghwa was asked about his onscreen kiss scenes and he said, "Both of my onscreen kisses have been with Park Shin Hye."
The MC then said, "That is why there are a lot of rumors about you dating Park Shin Hye." To this Yonghwa said that he is really not dating her. He explained that they are just really close friends who know a lot about each other.
Yonghwa was asked about his first kiss and he said it happened when he was a first year in high school. Kang Min Hyuk added, "That is around the age when a lot of people have their first kiss."
Do you think this will be the end to the rumors?

Founded in 1968, the Center for Spiritual Living Capistrano Valley offers a community for spiritual seekers who believe that the universe has intelligence, purpose, beauty and order; and integrates spiritual tools, such as affirmative prayer, meditation and visioning to provide a greater personal relationship with God.
"When God is the focus of our spirituality and we feel a deep and daily connection, then other areas of our lives fall into place," said Rev. Heather Dawn Clark, senior minister for the center. "We are happier and we can do more for others. This connection makes us better stewards of the Earth and brings peace and harmony to the world."
One of more than 450 Centers for Spiritual Living throughout the country, the center teaches spiritual principles, such as cause and effect and the law of attraction, initially introduced by mystics thousands of years ago and recently proven by science and physics. This New Thought tradition dates to the 1880s and has its roots in the Transcendentalist Movement of the 1830s. New Thought has a respected and enduring legacy that includes luminaries such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Walt Whitman and Ernest Holmes. Modern-day writers and philosophers who echo the New Thought ideas include: Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Louise Hay and Eckhart Tolle, among many others.
Heather Clark
Clark serves as spiritual director of the Center for Spiritual Living Capistrano Valley, in the Talega Business Park in San Clemente.
A personal awakening to the divine presence in the early 1980s was Clark's motivation to find a like-minded community. With that in mind, she came upon a small independent New Thought Center and was a founding member of the Center for Self-Awareness in Edmonton, Canada.
Clark's greatest joy is witnessing people awaken to their spiritual magnificence. She engages the congregation with stories and anecdotes to illustrate spiritual principles. She has a deep and overarching belief in the goodness of people and that every person has a right to live in a world that works for everyone.
Clark loves to teach spiritual principles in clear, practical ways, drawing on her rich knowledge of literature and sacred traditions. She takes her commitments seriously and takes herself lightly.
She was first licensed as a minister in 1992, serving as staff minister in the Calgary Center for a year. For the next six years, she served as senior minister in Bonita. She has served the larger organization in many capacities and now serves as the chair of the Leadership Council of Centers for Spiritual Living.
Clark received a bachelor's degree in education from the University of Saskatchewan, and in her previous career as an educator, she taught all grades, ages and abilities.
Pattie Mercado
Mercado's bright smile, warm heart and caring wisdom bring joy to the Center for Spiritual Living Capistrano Valley.
She attracts children of all ages and guides parents at every stage of their parenting journey as the full-time youth director. Rev. Pattie provides toddlers through teens with opportunities to know and deepen their connection with God and each other through play and practice. On Sundays, she's at the center of a bustling youth room, but her spiritual vision also reaches into center-sponsored day camps, playgroups, parenting classes, socials and more.
Since 1986, Mercado has called the center her spiritual home and family. She and her husband immersed themselves in the center's teaching, raised their two spiritually conscious children, and shared the path of transformation in classes and community. Her service has included six years on the board of trustees (three as president), and chairwoman of the annual program of commitment.
Nationally recognized from her service on the center's youth and family curriculum and training teams, she is credited for helping enhance the presence of family and youth spiritual education in our church community. A certified instructor recognized by the International Network for Children and Families, she brings practical insight and passion to her work.

Parkinson's Disease: Eating and Drooling ProblemsSkip to the navigation
Topic Overview
Parkinson's disease can change many of the muscles used for speech, chewing, and swallowing. Changes in these muscles may cause:
- Weight loss and nutrition problems.
- Slow eating.
- Fatigue during eating.
- Food "sticking" in the throat.
- Coughing or choking on food or liquids.
- Trouble swallowing saliva, which causes drooling.
- Trouble swallowing pills.
But there are things you can do to help reduce eating and drooling problems. A speech-language pathologist (also called a speech therapist) can teach you exercises and show you other ways to help with eating, swallowing, and drooling.
Eating problems
You can reduce eating problems by changing how and what you eat.
- Sit upright when eating, drinking, and taking pills.
- Take small bites of food, chew completely, and swallow before taking another bite.
- Take small sips of liquid, and hold them in your mouth as you prepare to swallow.
- If eating is tiring, divide food into smaller but more frequent meals.
- Thicker drinks make swallowing easier. Try milk shakes or juices in gelatin form.
- Eat moist, soft foods. Use a blender to prepare food for easier chewing.
- Avoid foods such as crackers or cakes that crumble easily. These can cause choking.
- If you cough or choke, lean forward and keep your chin tipped downward while you cough.
To reduce drooling:
- Keep your chin up and your lips closed when you aren't speaking or eating.
- Swallow often, especially before you start to speak.
- Ask a speech therapist about exercises to strengthen lip muscles.
- Avoid sugary foods that cause more saliva to develop.
- Ask your doctor about medicines you can use to help the problem.

Joyce homers in return from neck stiffness
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Outfielder Matt Joyce returned to the Rays' lineup with a bang Sunday, after missing the previous three games with a stiff neck.
Joyce, who hadn't played since departing Wednesday's game early, went 2-for-4 and connected for a three-run homer down the right-field line in the fourth inning. The blast marked his second of the spring and first since March 5.
The outfielder is now hitting .250 (10-for-40) with seven RBIs in 15 Grapefruit League games this spring after posting a .235/.328/.419 slash line and hitting 18 home runs in 140 games last season.

Angelina Jolie in Cannes for Kung Fu Panda 2 Pictures 2011-05-12 13:11:56
Angelina Jolie on Bringing the Kids to Cannes, Finding Inner Peace, and Maddox and Pax's Martial Arts!
Angelina Jolie joined her costars Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman to bring Kung Fu Panda 2 to the Cannes Film Festival this morning! The movie is screening out of competition, but the timing is perfect since she and the family will be sticking around to premiere Brad Pitt's Tree of Life Monday. Angelina looked stunning in Salvatore Ferragamo's tan dress, brown belt and nude heels, and she was cracking up during the press conference as Dustin and Jack showed off their comedic skills. Dustin harped on his own age, joking that he doesn't even remember making the first Kung Fu Panda, so it felt like the first time playing the part. Angelina also talked a bit about her kids, especially her boys Pax and Maddox's love of martial arts, and the theme of adoption in Kung Fu Panda 2 that are obviously close to home for the Jolie-Pitts. She said of the Kung Fu Panda series, "It's the best!" while Jack and Dustin kept the laughs coming. Here's some highlights from Angelina at the press conference:
- On her kids and the themes of adoption in Kung Fu Panda 2: "I brought my kids to see the movie and they loved it, they laughed through the whole thing. I wondered whether they would ask me questions about it, but because adoption and birth mothers and orphanage — these are happy words. They're very used to these discussions and they just felt that much more proud that they're a little more like Po. So it was lovely."
- On violence in KFP2 and showing her kids violent films: "You have to know your children. There are children that have a better understanding and are ready earlier than others. But for a film like this, I don't see this as a film that's too violent. I think this is actually quite the opposite because the strength, even in the final battle, the inner peace and sending back that negative energy is what wins. My boys are in martial arts classes. Boys are boys and they have a certain kind of energy, naturally. It's been wonderful to get them focused on martial arts to teach them about the discipline and the respect and the control of their own bodies. I think to ignore that that's a part of humanity, especially little boys, is wrong. So it's to help guide them — what's a positive thing, what's a good guy, To try not to [use violence] certainly, but if you have to, to defend yourself."
- On bringing the kids to Cannes: "Yes, we're all in France. Our whole family is in France and we're very happy. They're running around the hotel right now, playing games, and making a giant mess, I'm sure. They're having a great time. They love it here. Cannes can be overwhelming, and it can be that you meet a lot of friendly faces and have a good laugh and you also get a chance to see some great films. It's very nice."
- On picking KFP2 to appeal more to her kids: "We're all big kids at heart . . . but in many ways I did it for them, and I was excited for them to see it. The trick of a sequel is you have to make it better than the first one, which is hard to do especially when the first one is so successful, and I think we pulled it off."
- On finding inner peace: "Especially for people that have children. You wake up and if they're healthy, you know that that's the most important thing, so you have first of all that peace. They also come with a lot of chaos, but we're all searching for it. It's part of the human journey. We all have moments of inner peace and we lose it and we look for it again. But really it's in knowing the people you love are safe and healthy. That's the best."
- On her real-life alter ego to all her tough characters: "Certainly my alter ego is who I am 100 percent, which is a mommy who is changing diapers and coloring all night long. I'm sure I'm very, very soft. I've always been drawn to strong characters and I admire strong women, emotionally and physically, just people I feel are fighting for something . . . have a sense of justice and injustice. I've been very lucky that I came to my career at a time that women are being allowed these roles and have such great opportunities for these types of characters."

PRIME Minister Julia Gillard does not have a problem maintaining discipline among Labor MPs, Infrastructure and Transport Minister Anthony Albanese says.
Ms Gillard on Monday demanded caucus colleagues stop leaking against her, after a fortnight when some had backgrounded journalists about discontent over dumped senator Trish Crossin, and the early election date announcement.
Outgoing Senator Chris Evans has since used a television interview to hit out at leakers in the party, telling them, "Shut up, just shut up".
Mr Albanese was asked on Friday if Senator Evans' comments suggested the prime minister's authority was in decline.
"No," he bluntly replied.
He also said he didn't feel the comments were aimed at supporters of former prime minister Kevin Rudd.
In an interview with ABC News 24, to be aired on Friday night, Senator Evans warns, "No party can succeed if it's got people talking to people like you, offering negative views."

Another busy summer seen for I-93 construction
SALEM — Once again this construction season, drivers will be seeing a lot of activity along Interstate 93 as part of the $800 million road-widening project. A big portion of the work will take place in Salem between exits 2 and 3.
"One of the main goals this year is that by Labor Day on the southbound portion, we will be opening up about four to five miles of new roadway with a lot of safety improvements," said Jay Levine, the state Department of Transportation's I-93 coordinating supervisor.
By the end of the summer, Levine said an additional lane of roadway into Massachusetts should be ready for everyday travel.
This week will see some nighttime lane closures on the northbound side of I-93 near exit 2, according to Levine. Tonight and Tuesday night, construction will require that traffic on I-93 northbound be reduced to one lane. Levine said the work will take place during non-commuter hours, from about 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
At the conclusion of Tuesday night's work, if all goes as scheduled, I-93 northbound traffic will be shifted toward the median onto the newly paved portion of roadway.
George R. Cairns and Sons of Windham is the general contractor for the $41 million portion of the I-93 widening project near exit 2.
During the height of the summer, from approximately the Fourth of July to Labor Day, commuters will be seeing a lot of construction activity on the southbound side of I-93 from exit 3 to exit 2.
During the summer, Levine said crews will also clean up and finish some work near Exit 5 in Londonderry.
As in past years, public safety officials are urging drivers to use caution.
"The continued construction projects do, at times, present inherent dangers which include smaller lanes of travel, dust, lane shifts, distractions of the construction equipment (and) a driver looking at what is being done instead of driving with due care in these construction zones," Sgt. Paul Hunt of the New Hampshire State Police said.
Hunt said he believes the state has done a great job of outlining its plans for construction, making sure there are plenty of orange construction signs warning motorists of work zones, properly marking lanes, and adding police details and flaggers for safety.
"The bottom line is that the motorists need to slow down, pay attention to the traffic in front of them — which can slow at a moment's notice — and leave plenty of room between vehicles," Hunt said.
Drivers should also allow extra time for their trips because of possible congestion in the work zones, he said.

DETROIT - I've been telling you about this storm for many days now, and today it's looking to be even stronger than I thought earlier in the week.
Here's what you need to know. First, you have nothing to worry about either tonight or tomorrow. Although there could be some light snow along and north of I-69, this is not the "big" snow I'm watching. In fact, most of the immediate metro area should be dry during the day tomorrow.
The snow you need to be concerned about will arrive Thursday evening...hopefully after rush hour. Snow will quickly increase and become heavy throughout the night. I think there's a better than reasonable chance that many school districts in the northern half of the Local 4 area will close schools Friday, giving some of your kids a three day weekend.
But the rest of us who will have to be on the roads Thursday night or Friday morning have plenty to worry about. The tricky part of establishing how much snow to forecast is the potential for some sleet (or even freezing rain) to mix in south of 8 Mile. There is only so much moisture in the atmosphere to turn into snow, and if some of that falls as sleet or freezing rain, then this cuts back on the snow amounts. Right now, I see areas south of 8 Mile probably accumulating snow in the 2-4" range, with the higher amounts north of I-94, and the lesser amounts south of I-94.
Further north into Macomb, Oakland, and Livingston Counties, I'm looking at a 4-6" stripe of mostly snow, with the higher amounts being the further north you go. North of M-59 and into the I-69 corridor and northward is where the heaviest snow will be. At this point, I see you folks getting 6-8" of snow, with more than 8" possible further north into Sanilac County and points west of there. To highlight the potential for hazardous travel conditions Thursday night and Friday morning, the National Weather Service has issued a WINTER STORM WATCH for areas north of I-94.
More: Latest forecast and radar images from JustWeather.com
Temperatures during this snow will be in the 20s, and there are both positives and negatives to this. The negative is that, unlike the powdery, fluffy snowfalls we've seen since late last week, this snow will be somewhat wetter and heavier to shovel. You might have broomed off the snow this week (and somebody told me yesterday that he had great success using his leaf blower!), but you'll have to shovel this one.
It is important to be very careful if you are elderly or have a heart condition when trying to shovel this snow. My recommendation is to find a neighborhood kid to do the job for you...he or she will be happy to make a few bucks.
The positive to this snow is that kids will have a wonderful Winter Wonderland to play in this weekend (not to mention paradise for you skiers). Also, remember that it's snowstorms like this that bring much needed moisture to Michigan that eventually replenishes our lake levels when the snow melts. I've said many times that if you like to play on the water in the summer, you'd better hope for snow during the winter.

What bothers me about Wrestlemania 17?
by, 03-06-2013 at 01:03 PM (12302 Views)
I know many are going to ask when they read the title, why discuss this topic now? Well it is WM season and this happens to be a WM topic that isn't going to be repeated by others. That and I have just had a blog on here for a year. Been wanting to do it for some time, but waited for WM season to do so. In any case, what really bothers me about WM 17 is the fact most consider it the best Mania of all-time. I've seen video playlists when you google it claiming best WM matches ever including the TLC match and Stone Cold vs Rock. For those who have read my blogs in the past, they know my favs all-time is of course Rock and Austin. So what is the issue? I'll just go topic by topic below. Bold the topic so some don't nec. have to read it all. In any case, here it is.....What bothers me about WM17: I want you all however to read Austin/Rock.
WM17 is heavily regarded as the best Mania of all-time. I go back and watch it....I don't know if I'm extremely critical or not. I'll leave that up to you. Going down the match card: it looks just as solid as any card in the history of WM. No one can argue that. WM 17 was actually the first ppv I watched. I was in grade school at the time.
Jericho/Regal 7 minute opening match that I was interested in because I enjoyed the story. Especially Jericho peeing in the tea cup and Regal apparently drinking it.
Didn't have internet access at the time and was too young to know many of the wrestlers in the battle royal. I knew Sgt Slaughter o from his DX feud along with him being one of Vince's stooges during the Austin feud. Just a throw in type of battle royal that was really once in a lifetime. LOL!
RTC vs APA and Tazz for about 4 minutes. I along with everyone across America enjoyed watching RTC getting defeated by APA and Tazz.
I enjoyed the Kane/Show/Raven hardcore match.
Eddie vs Test was meh.
Angle vs Benoit is and was the best match on the show. Don't care who says otherwise. Was #10 on top 10 WM matches of all-time voted by the superstars the night before WM20 with no other WM17 match included. I couldn't tell ya definately it was voted by superstars, but I like to think that.
Chyna vs Ivory was a match all us fans were waiting for ended in like seconds. The last time we see Chyna at Mania.
Shane vs Vince was good,but not as great as one would make it out to be. I did enjoy the slap by Trish to Vince along with her chasing Steph out of ringside. The moment during the match that I strongly feel stole the show....ok minus the Edge spear to Jeff Hardy in the TLC match, but definately the most shocking moment of the night. I'm hinting at something for you folks who are reading this.
TLC 2 is probably the most over-rated WM match of all-time. I hated even at the time the involvement of Rhino and Spike Dudley. I liked Lita and still do. However,hated the involvement of them in the match. Felt like it felt during the time. These guys didn't deserve to be on the show. Rhino/Spike never experienced another WM moment nor match after that. I have gained much more respect for Rhino than I had in the past in recent years. The TLC match just had those guys doing the bumps at least it felt that way. The focus was off the guys who you wanted to see compete in that finale. WM2000 was the best and Summerslam 2000 was better head and shoulders than TLC 2. I don't care what anyone says. Other than Jeff getting speared by Edge, I hated the entire match.
Taker/HHH is also another match that I believe is over-rated. Maybe I'm more critical than most because of the bar it is set when you look back. How great was the match? The majority of the match was outside of the ring battling through the crowd with punches. Chokeslam to HHH off whatever they were on with some steel chair shots is basically the majority of the match. Loved the moment when Taker got the hammer pointing it at HHH. I hated the ending as well, didn't like the Last Ride. Didn't the whole time the gimmick was on tv, but I enjoyed listening to Taker on the mic out of character. Felt like just a powerbomb that others have used. Liked the tombstone better. Didn't understand at the time why he switched moves.
The shocking moment?The match more so the moment that many people claim to be shocking which I didn't at all at the time even as a kid. I watched the Vince/Austin feud. I was rooting for the Rock at WM17 to beat Austin.Austin wasn't the same guy he was in the past. I didn't like it where we acknowledged he had a wife named Debra. He is supposed to be a badass who cares for no one. I felt he was more so the heel going in. I hated the buildup even though it did great #s. Debra's involvement among other things. I was surprised by Rock beating Angle at No Way Out. I thought Austin was going to be the one to defeat Kurt.Thought it would be classic stuff at the time, Kurt Angle was so anti Austin which is why he was booed at the time. In any case, I didnt believe Vince joining forces with Austin was a shocker to me in grade school. Austin to me was different with his wife which is why it wasn't a surprise to me. How it was to others baffles me to this day. Austin wasn't DTA anymore with Debra. Austin was ruthless not caring for anybody.
There you have it, what bothers me about WM17. What bothers me? How over-rated TLC 2, HHH/Taker match, and Rock/Austin shocking ending that wasn't shocking to me at all at the time. Various reasons as to why people say it is the best Mania all-time is because the "shocking ending", TLC 2,HHH/Taker matches. Had to get that out and waited for a while to air it for WM season.
What are your thoughts on this? Was Vince joining forces with Austin a shocker to you? How good was TLC 2 and HHH/Taker matches? Was WM17 the best Mania of all-time? If not, which WM is in your opinion? Thoughts and opinions are welcome. Don't take it personally if I defend what I said here in a reply like I always commonly do with blogs. People have taken it personal like "you wanted my opinion" type of response. So don't take it personal if I do reply defending my opinion in this blog or blogs in the future. Anyways, thanks for reading. Hopefully you leave a rating along with a comment here on this blog.

PERSHORE continued their impressive Worcestershire Cricket League Division One start with a third straight success.
They recorded a weather-affected six-wicket home win over Hagley to go joint top of the table with Colwall.
Andrew Robertson's 4-15 from 10 overs restricted the visitors to 199-9 before Pershore reached a winning 187-4 in 31.2 overs.
Robertson again played a starring role with 43 not out alongside efforts from opener Chris Ayliffe (39) and skipper Chris Ridings (31).
Evesham's struggles have not improved after their string of relegations with Worcester's 215 all out proving too much to chase.
The visitors collapsed for 91 in a 124-run thrashing.
Harvington's game at Redditch was abandoned due to rain with the hosts on 157-4, leaving the Vale side eighth in the table.
They entertain Pershore on Saturday, while Evesham are at home to Belbroughton.

I went back on doxy after that horrible breakout and now I'm clearing up slowly.
I went off it bc the price went from $4 on target and walmarts generic lists to $140 out of no where.
Luckily walgreens has it for around $40 and bc I don't have insurance I got a discount bringing it down to under $14. Which made me very happy since I'm no longer working and on a strict budget.

Shuck impresses as utility man, injury replacement
ANAHEIM -- Entering Spring Training, J.B. Shuck looked like a long shot to make the team -- and then he cracked the Opening Day roster. Twelve days into the season, he was on his way back to the Minor Leagues because the Angels needed an extra infielder, only to be called up the next day when Erick Aybar was placed on the disabled list.
Now, with Peter Bourjos sidelined indefinitely with a left hamstring strain, Shuck is essentially an everyday left fielder.
"It's fun to play every day, but you never want to see a guy go down, and you don't want to get a spot like that," said Shuck, the former Astros outfielder who was obtained on a Minor League contract this offseason. "My job is to do what they need me to do. Right now, it's to fill in for Pete."
And Shuck has done so admirably so far, with five hits in 13 at-bats. In Friday's 4-0 win over the Orioles, the 25-year-old left-handed hitter went 2-for-3 with a bunt single and showed off his solid speed and that short, compact swing that made him so appealing to the Angels out of Spring Training.
"To me, the shorter the swing, the easier it is to take a few days off and be able to come back," said Shuck, who's generously listed at 5-foot-11. "My job is just to get on base, so that helps in that way, too."
