At some time in your life, you may have had the feeling of being completely in the moment, completely focused on what you were doing and immune to all distractions.
What were you doing at the time? Were you painting? Cooking? Playing a sport? The idea is that these moments, your "aha!" moments, prove that you do have what it takes.
If you've had that experience, think back to what you were doing. Chances are that you were feeling passionate about whatever it was. When you're working at something you're not so passionate about, it's tougher to reach that optimal place.
People who are very successful and who achieve a great deal need to be passionate, as well as disciplined, about their pursuits.
Here are a few tips to help you find your "sweet spot" (or unsweet spot) when you're trying to lose weight:
•Avoid anxiety: Sports psychologists often tell professional and Olympic athletes to study themselves and "pattern" the state of mind in which they've excelled. Most elite athletes are surprised to realize they've done best when they were relaxed, almost not caring, rather than being all "keyed up."
In this respect, a good part of achieving, succeeding and moving forward relies on "The Three C's": being calm, cool and collected.
Most times when you're trying to lose or control weight, you, your family and your friends and/or co-workers create anxiety around your attempt. Creating any anxiety around a behavior change increases the likelihood that you will engage in the very behavior you're trying to change.
•Love what you're doing and do what you love: If you believe losing weight is temporary — well — it will be temporary. You need to find healthy foods you love — foods that are not just good enough for now. If you don't do that, you'll be feeling deprived, you'll be suffering, and you won't be in the zone.
In fact, the Journal of Nutrition reports taste is the single most important reason people choose the foods they do, and that this is also an important factor for regulating "hunger, satiety and voluntary food intake."
What's the best way to find your food zone? Get out the cookbooks and check out your local restaurants' online menus. Go to the supermarket and experiment with frozen dinners and other healthier food choices.
The same goes for physical activity and exercise — you need to love that, too. Pick activities that will sustain you, that will make you want to be more active and that are easily available.
Experiment until you find something that makes you tick, and keep in mind that you need to do it on a daily basis. Take out that trial membership being offered by your local gym. Check the online classifieds and consider buying a used bicycle, treadmill or elliptical machine.
•Reduce stress and sustain personal energy: When you're stressed, your body releases cortisol, a hormone designed to help you either fight or flee. But when the cause is not a lion about to attack but rather a stressful e-mail, the cortisol may trick you into thinking you have done something active in response to a perceived threat and send a signal to your brain to refuel your body. Additionally, according to experts, some of the indirect effects of cortisol overexposure are depression, fatigue, tension and anxiety.
To accomplish your goals, you need to sustain personal energy. While personal energy cannot be quantified, you know what it feels like when you're drained of it. But when your brain and your body are in sync, they produce tremendous energy.
People who are enthusiastic about what they're doing can work long hours, sometimes with less sleep, and still wake up restored and raring to go. When you're "in the zone," "in the flow" or having an "optimal experience," energy is not even an issue.
Here are some questions to ask yourself and exercises you can do to reduce stress and improve your own personal energy:
•What are your high and low points of energy during the day? When are you most productive and clear thinking? If possible, can you schedule important events to make full use of that time? Are there activities you can schedule during your lower-energy times that might be less taxing but still productive, and even potentially re-energizing?
•As an experiment, try shifting your attitude about a certain task or job or person from negative to positive for a day, or, if you can't do that, for just a few hours. Emphasize the positive aspects about a person or task you have previously seen as a problem. Decide not to let it get to you. Smile. See if, at the end of the day, you feel less drained than usual.
•Try positive affirmations, visualization and meditation — these are effective because they calm the mind and body, relieve stress, improve concentration, increase energy and allow you to listen to your intuition and stay true to your personal goals. They cost nothing, and even a short session can be helpful.

Removed the grille then able to change control panel frame. Since the outer frame was cracked it was easy to see how to take it apart from there. All told it was a 2 hour job but part of that was taking advantage of the exposed parts and cleaning the microwave throughly. I have to say though this would have gone a lot eaiser with some directions.

Playcast cloud gaming service to launch in the US

Playcast beats OnLive and Gaikai to the punch… kinda
Playcast Media System is launching a large-scale pilot of its streaming game service today, which pulls audio and visual data from offsite computers in a way similar to OnLive and Gaikai. So, have the two big names been one-upped? Well, not exactly. See, Playcast's service is only launching in Israel — for now.
The service promises "Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 quality games" using only a cable provider or Telco set-top box.
Fret not, however, if you're itching to (potentially) stream some games this year. As of now, Playcast's offering is set to launch in "major markets in the US, Europe and Asia" in 2009 and 2010. Exactly when and where, though, still remains a mystery.
Full release after the break.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
-- as we remember the victims of the Connecticut school shooting we are learning more about the shooter there are unconfirmed claims that he had a personality disorder possibly Asperger's syndrome.
Columnists Charles Krauthammer talked yesterday about the lack of support in the mental health system for families.
Many years ago I would commit people against -- -- will from the Massachusetts General Hospital.
Two state hospitals.
If they were in danger to themselves and -- it's become much harder to do it's not to make any psychiatrist.
Ever does lightly.
But the dilemma for a -- -- -- did you read these terrible relationships.
Because of the rise of civil liberties and their experience that we had in the fifties of the abuse.
In incarceration of the mentally ill.
Where it becomes impossible and don't say to a parent until he does something nor hands -- -- -- -- what our families to do so let's ask psychotherapist in school counselor Thomas Christine thank you for joining us thanks that is.
Briefly we're hearing possible Asperger's angle here at this evidence that people with -- Yeah I've I've heard that have gotten emails from people about that and you know if there is no evidence that you know somebody would Asperger's and that if you think has violent behavior.
They might have social awkwardness but not enough that it took link the two -- I think too premature.
Back to the root causes of this type of thing a lot of people are pointing to our changing culture.
The shooter played violent video games zone at the Columbine killers.
Fans of these games do not want to hear any link between the two but what say you you know and I took the cares about this -- on and I have young kids NIC might.
Kids' friends you know playing these violent video games not something I would ever do with my own kids I -- -- the -- That we want to keep marquis sites they said this yesterday we want to maintain our kids innocents they do not need to be exposed to violent video games.
Part of the problem I think is that parents have become desensitized they -- other parents are doing the community well you know -- -- he has this game.
Sharon has this game and suddenly you know what I guess it went happy -- -- -- a deal I'll get it for.
And you use that word -- That's the other thing that we're hearing is about movies that people watch enough violence and all the sudden they become numb to the thought of it absolutely I mean -- every -- pumping into your subconscious mind is becoming your reality.
So you become desensitized but if you're doing something or repetitively.
Engaged in stimulating activity over and over again.
You know your brain will actually create new neural pathways that are consistent with that -- you could become you know it's completely desensitized the violent video games.
And -- become a killer -- think of in a distinctive.
Of all of these things have been happening over the last several years going -- has got to be connection here.
But of course -- people will say there are plenty of people who watch these movies play these games don't have that -- There are other vulnerabilities there we could assume so let's get to that.
Lack of family time you say one of the keys this is something I talk to Phillies about all the time I give talks about it all -- time.
You know people may think that they're having quality family time if -- home together but I look at a lot of families in America nowadays as being individuals.
Living under the same roof.
Dad's on his cell -- moms watching television Johnny's playing video games and got to keep might be doing some other foolish after iPod texting and we have.
Individuals completely distracted.
And not engaged and not a living together as families right and family dinner you say really Bailey dinner -- is very important to me on that's that's kind of a lost art.
As I caught me in in our country nowadays I think it's critical that families now take the time actually sit down -- commitment.
Have meals together and keep it all the distractions away while you're doing that yet no gadgets during dinner that -- Thomas Christine thank you so much thanks fat nutrition.

Dylan Waugh (Lodi, Calif./Tokay) and Tyler Lafferty (Berwyn, Ill./St. Joseph) each turned in two goals, as the Buena Vista men's soccer team went on to top visiting MacMurray College to begin the 2012 season on Friday evening, 5-1.
Waugh put BVU in front 2-0 by scoring twice in the span of two minutes midway through the first half.
The Highlanders cut the lead in half with a goal of their own late in the half, but just four minutes into the second, Lafferty took a feed from Steve Gutschenritter (Pacific Junction, Iowa/Glenwood) for the first of his two second-half goals. He made it 4-1 only 15 minutes later when he found the back of the net after a knocking through a pass from Juan Andrade-Flores (Worthington, Minn./Worthington). Roland Pappoe (Accra, Ghana/Labone Senior) finished the scoring with only nine seconds left in the match off a pass from Eric Karita.
The five goals scored by the Beavers were the most the team had scored in a single game since blanking Waldorf College, 6-0, back in 2008. The team scored only 16 goals all of last season.
Melzdan Isakovic (Rijeka, Croatia/Urbandale) and Joey Stivers (Glenwood, Iowa/Glenwood) each chimed in with assists, as BVU went on to out-shoot MacMurray, 20-8.
Michael Rydberg (Overland Park, Kan./Olathe East) notched a win in-goal in his collegiate debut, going the distance and allowing only one goal, while recording one save.
Buena Vista is 1-0 on the year and will host Northland College on Sunday to wrap up the BVU Classic. The two teams will square-off at 4:00pm inside of J. Leslie Rollins Stadium.

Others have been guessing the faculty members as babies, rubbing the "Elephant Backs," naming the droodles, and having their teeth cleaned for $1 by the dental school. MISS CEYLON . . . placa the eyes Reporter Finds 'Scoop'At Party Given For Alumni Kids Saturday By MARILYN HALL Bang . . . You're dead ... a fall ... a cry ... I lost my lollipop . . . Father Chapman took it . . . another cry . . . my balloon has popped. Excuse me dear reader but I am a freshman in journalism and am making use of the 'stacatto lead' (just learned it), to gTve the details of a scoop story. It was a scoop too, scoops of ice cream mixed with scoops of kids (300 of them), all claiming direct ancestry to the great Loyola family. i Have you in suspense? It was really just a party (understatement of the year), the 15th Annual Children's Party for the little 'pitter patters' of the Loyola Alumni members, held last Saturday at Holy Name. Only the 'pitter patters' didn't patter, they screamed, they laughed, they cried, with the usual sticky tear result, they even gave off favorite cries of 'Wolf Man,' but there was no patter. Professor Lewis Todd of Math, walked off with awards amidst the confusion of who was who. His little six week old daughter, Patricia, received a prize for being the youngest child there. But Todd, because of the nine 'patters' in his family, was sure that one prize was not enough for him. Oh no, 13 year-old Mary Elizabeth Todd also took a prize for being the oldest child there. The other 298 lollipop lickers didn't walk off empty handed, though, for they received, upon showing their well scrubbed faces, a balloon, a funny hat and a ticket which entitled him to ice cream, a pony ride (real live one too), and a fish pond stick that somehow only produced fish that turned into many shiny bright toys and trinkets. What about the adults? Those former pursuers of the great and powerful 'knowledge' were busy before the party trying to see who could blow the most hot air into the some 2000 balloons that later served for decorations. Tears crowded their eyes almost as much as they did the eyes of little Susies and Joes when the balloons popped under loving pressure. Imagine the hours of wasted air that floated about the party! Mrs. W. A. Wambsgans copped a special award for having the most children present. Six bobbing heads helped her win too. ONE-YEAR-OLD TWINS, ANGELIQUE AND ADRIENNE LACOUR, AT PARTY. BA Alumni Plans Awards Two awards for outstanding scholarship have been established for the college of business administration by the college's alumni, according to Dean Henry J. Engler. The Dr. John V. Connor Award will be presented to the male graduate attaining the highest scholastis average. The coed graduate having the highest scholastic average will receive the Rev. Joseph A. Butt, S.J., Award. The awards, both gold keys, will be presented at Award Night ceremonies by the president of the BA alumni association. Alfred L. Leßlanc, 1949 graduate, was elected president of the association at a recent meeting. Other new officers are Joseph Famiglio, 1949 graduate, vice-president; Frank Charbonnet, 1950, secretary; and Lester Madere, 1949, treasurer. Leßlanc said that the new awards were established because in the past the college of business administration had no scholastic awards to present. Dr. Bernal Donates Ancient Manuscripts Dr. Miguel Bernal, dean of the college of music, recently donated several volumes of ancient manuscripts to the University library. The books, which were discovered by the noted musician in the attic of the Conservatory of the Roses, Morelia, Mexico, are now on display on the first floor of the library. The Rev. Paul L. Callens, S.J., chairman of the department of foreign languages, who arranged the display, said that Dr. Bernal discovered the i volumes by accident when he was director at the Conservatory. "Someone had evidently put them up in the attic and forgot about them," the priest continued. One of the volumes is Obertura de Antonio Sarrier and is a handwritten copy dating back to the 17th century. The first symphony written in America, Obertura was recently performed in Tucson, Arizona, and acclaimed as one of the greatest symphonies. Dr. BernalBernal has transcribed this work into modern form for orchestra. Another manuscript is a Libros De Asientos or roll book. Begun in 1772, it lists the founders and members of the Congregation of St. John Nepomucene. An interesting aspect of the book is that it lists the credential status of each member, such as "no paga" (does not pay), "insolvento" (insolvent), and the like. Among the collection is the first music ever printed in America.America. Published by Petrus Ocharto, the Graduate Dominicale was printed in 1576. Father Callens explained that one of the books is an extremely rare one; not even the Library of Congress owns a copy. Written by Miguel de Fuenllana, the manuscript has only a few copies in existence. A rare and famous book, said Father Callens, is the one written in 51 chapters on musical theory. The author, Gioseffe Zarlino, demonstrates the superiority of the system known as the "Syntonous or Intense Diatonic" of Ptolemy above all other systems. Other books in the collection are A Brief Explanation of Theory and Practice of Plain Chant, Written in 1782 by Jose Vicente Gonosavel for the use of the children at the Conservatory of the Roses; one of the first editions of Haydn piano sonatas; a Ritual Carmelitano, published in 1789; a treatise on Gregorian chant, published in 1778 in Madrid, Spain, by Dr. Nicolas Pascual Roig; Scienza del Suoni e Dell' Armonia by Giuseppe Pizzati; and a treatise on plain chant by Francisco Marcos y Navas, published in Madrid in the 18th century. Father Callens added that these priceless volumes testify that the Spaniards not only brought religion and government to Mexico but also the arts and culture as well. '"These books are as good as any that were published in Europe at the same time. It is really evident that the Spaniards brought their own private libraries with them because we have some of their books in our own library," he said. Award Chemistry Department $5000 Grant For Research Father Jo/ley, Free/and Will Conduct Project (Photo on Page 2) The National Science Foundation has awarded a research grant of $5000 to the University for the support of a research project in the department of chemistry,' the Very Rev. W. Patrick Donnelly, S.J., University president, announced. The research project, under the direction of the Rev. Homer R. Jolley, S.J., is on "Chromatographic Separation of Racemic Mixtures."According to Father Jolley, racemic mixtures are mixtures of substances whose molecular structures are related in somewhat the same way as a man's right hand is related to his left. "The separation of such mixtures is difficult and the parpose of the present research is to find a much more efficient method for performing this separation," Father Jolley added-. "While the ordinary chemical and physical properties of racemates are almost exactly alike, their physiological and medicinal properties, for example, may differ widely," he continued. Father Jolley explained that in the manufacture of very many synthetic drugs, racemic mixtures are a result of the synthesis, but only one or other of the individual substance is desired. Hence their separation is both scientifically and economically significant. Lee T. Freeland, a chemistry major who will graduate in June, will begin work on July 1 as assistant on the research project. The project will continue for approximately one year. Jr. ADA Hosts N. 0. Dentists At Banquet The Junior American Dental Association presented clinics in scientific dental fields Wednesday night in the cafeteria when it was host to the monthly meeting of the New Orleans Dental Association.

Records reveal how Christmas was once cancelled
16 December
Documents from The National Archives reveal how the wave of religious reform that swept across England during and after the English Civil War could have changed the way Christmas is celebrated today.
Christmas banned
The Council of State Letters and Papers (catalogue reference SP 25/15) show how Oliver Cromwell and his allies in Parliament objected to the excess and debauchery that followed the traditional celebration of Christmas. In accordance with their Puritan views, strict rules were drawn up banning all familiar festivities relating to Christmas, including feasting and carolling. The restriction also meant that worshiping idols and using the word 'Christmas' became serious offences. Previous to this, in 1642, the government had declared a monthly fast to remember the famine in Ireland. During this fast, the playing of sport and conducting of trade were banned - this was to be observed even when it fell on Christmas day in 1644.
Despite the rules, later entries among the government papers suggest that the ban on Christmas and other holy day festivities were ignored. In December 1657, orders were issued to the authorities in London and Westminster to clamp down on visible traditional celebrations of festival days. An extract from the Council of State Letters and Papers, SP 18/158, f.95, reads:
'The festivals of Easter, Christmas, and other holy days having been taken away, the Lord Mayor and justices of London and Westminster are to see that the Ordinance for taking away festivals is observed, and to prevent the solemnities heretofore used in their celebration.'
Christmas restored
Sean Cunningham, Head of Medieval and Early Modern Records at The National Archives, commented: 'Although this might seem like the ultimate Christmas Scrooge story, it's no surprise that the anti-Christmas legislation was ignored by many people who continued to follow ancient traditions in secret. What is most astonishing, however, is that for almost two decades the festivities of Christmas week were officially forbidden. If the ban hadn't been publicly reversed by Charles II, the joys of Christmas might have been a time consigned to history.'
The restoration of the monarchy in May 1660 reversed the doctrine and encouraged a return to the traditional ways of celebrating. The country was once again officially allowed to mark the 12 days of Christmas.

Marvel Field
In spring 2003 the venerable Marvel Gymnasium was finally demolished and a new multi-purpose field constructed. The focus of the field project was the development of a beautiful regulation-sized rugby field with permanent goal posts. The men's and women's programs have priority field use for both practices and games.
This space provides a home to the nearly 100 student-athletes who compete on our popular rugby club teams. Among other things, the fields will be used for other club and intramural athletic activities such as Ultimate Frisbee.

I wasn't sure about the colors in this quilt (no description) but I would say they are off white, chocolate, mid-orange (kinda 70s-ish), deep fuschia, mid-olive green (also kinda 70s-ish), and turquoise. I already had a fuschia quilt on my bed and it matched perfectly. It is also surprisingly soft right out of the bag, not stiff like some of the cheap quilts I looked at in stores. The shams have cute little ties on the back/striped side so the pillow doesn't pop out. The price is AWESOME for what I got.
Nice bedding! I have for a queen would like it to be a bit longer but we have an extra deep mattress so for a normal depth it would be fine! The quality is great for the price of this piece, I also have a different one from the same company in my guest bedroom and it's the same quality stitching. My only downfall of this piece is the coloring in the photo seems to be burgandy, burnt oranges, darker mustard yellows and blues so I though it would be perfect combination for my husband and I feminine pattern with more masculine colors BUT they aren't the burgandy is actually a mauve pink color, the mustard more of a yellow yellow as te dark blue is more of a teal. Now my husband doesn't care he digs the pattern an would sleep under something hot pink but if your going to have a significant other sharing this and they are kind of iffy about 'girly' colors Id take that into consideration!
Was afraid to order this because there weren't any reviews! It is beautiful! I got it for a full bed and it covers both mattresses. Good quality. Shams are very big and tie in the back. Recommend it!
I ordered this in king size for my bed. I was originally looking for something under $100, of good quality. I wanted it to be colorful, but not TOO girly for my husband. I am so glad I got this. Its beautiful! Its thick and soft, made very well. The colors are so bright and looks even better in person! fits on my bed without being stiff. It's everything i was looking for.
Nice quality and the colors are prettier in real life - lots of options to use in decorating. Turquoise, browns and hot pinks - Modern retro feel
I received this item yesterday and as soon as I pulled it out of the box, I was taken by how beautiful the colors are and how well made it is. I ordered the full/queen for my full-sized guest bed. I think it would be a little short for my taste for my queen bed, so consider a king-size for a queen bed if you want it to hang over the mattress. The colors are simply gorgeous - vibrant and true to what you see online (better actually!). The craftsmanship is high quality and the weight of it is ample. Even my guy-guy husband thought this was a lovely quilt - he was ooh-ing and aah-ing over it as well, but agreed that it was a little feminine for our room. (The reddish color you see online is a bright fuscha - I noted other reviewers making this comment as well, so I was expecting it.)
Bought this to replace my old microfiber comforter--which was just TOO hot. This quilt is perfect! It was just what I was looking for--100% cotton. The design is also beautiful, with all the tones I want to try and introduce into my room. C:
GEt lots of compliments on this bedding set. Love the Morrocan theme! Gives a bit of pop to myh bedroom. Colors are pretty right on from picture on-line.
Nice product. Received quickly. Quilt is decent thickness. Only reason I didnt give excellent is because the material on the back of the pillow shams is very thin and doesnt match the quality of the rest of the product.
I bought this for my King Bed. Had No problems with the size or drape like the other reviewer. You do have to have the tag on the bottom left corner. The coverlet is soft and the colors are really vibrant and happy. Been through the wash on gentle cold and turned out great. Couldn't be happier. Nice medium weight to it as well.

I believe that hop pellets and plugs are essentially just hops that are grinded and pressure molded. Given the amount of nuisance that whole hops have given me (clogged siphon hoses, yeast washing/rinsing, lost volume) would it ever be advisable to grind them up in a food processor/Vitamix? I could envision one of the problems being that some of the essential oils would 'stick'to the sides of the blender/food processor. I just have a ton of whole hops in my freezer and am getting tired of some of these problems that don't exist as much with pellets.

I think this is one of those things you just have to try out on some old hops. A coffee bean grinder might work better if grinding dry. Even if oils do come out, just use a spatula to scoop up all the hops and oil. If you're doing this on brew day, you can use a blender/food processor with a little cooled wort from the first runoff to create a hop-paste. Use a spatula and then more wort to get all the hops out the equipment. | |||

Read This Article in Westways Magazine about Two Women who Hiked from Hermosa Beach to The Topanga Canyon Inn: See our Trail Maps. Our Location and Directions: 20310 Callon Drive, Topanga California 90290 The Topanga Canyon Inn is tucked away in an idyllic, rural California setting in the Santa Monica Mountains surrounded by thousands of acres of Topanga State Park wilderness which is further surrounded by thousands of square miles of Los Angeles. The Inn is set about a mile off busy Topanga Canyon Boulevard on a private street, so there is no road noise and no through traffic. The only sounds are the birds by day and the owls, crickets and occasional coyote at night. One of the best features of the Inn is that it is only a fifteen minute drive to the beaches of Malibu/Topanga/Santa Monica to the south or fabulous shopping in Woodland Hills and Calabasas to the north. Your HostsYour hosts are Warren and Elena Roché. Warren is a retired studio musician who took up a second career building houses. Elena is an artist with an international reputation for extraordinary floral watercolors. She works in all mediums and paints a wide variety of subjects, including many local plein air scenes in oil. Her paintings grace the walls of the Inn, which doubles as one of her galleries, and are available for purchase. The Topanga Canyon Inn The two residences that comprise the Inn were designed and built in 1987 and 1990 by your host, Warren Roché. The design and finish were inspired by the great flourishing of vernacular architecture in Southern California from near the beginning of the twentieth century to the Great Depression. This particular style, the vernacular Mediterranean, can be seen in many older neighborhoods locally, most especially from the Hollywood Hills to San Marino. The style, with it's incorporation of sturdy materials such as floor and roof tile, plaster, stucco and wrought iron, works well with the climate and has an almost archetypical feeling of being at home in its setting. Those familiar with Mediterranean Europe will easily recognize this style, where, for hundreds of years, while other building designs and materials have proven less resilient and have fallen into ruin, this kind of house has stood the test of time.

Monday was the deadline for candidates to file their latest fundraising numbers with the state board of elections and we got a glimpse at the filings from dozens of State Senate candidates. Our Nick Reisman sheds some light on how the battle for control of the chamber might play out in November.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Senate Republicans have seemingly everything when it comes to maintaining control of the chamber. They've got more money and good relationship with a popular Democratic governor, Andrew Cuomo. But Senate Democrats are still holding out hope, thanks to their huge enrollment advantage and the recently announced retirement of Long Island Senator Owen Johnson.
"I think I'm comfortable saying that I like our chances in western New York with a couple of seats. I like our chances in Long Island with a couple seats which have been enhanced in the last few days with the retirement of Senator Johnson," said State Senator Neil Breslin.
But Democrats in the Senate are feeling the heat from nearly every side. Cuomo, for instance, refuses to back a complete Democratic takeover of the Senate.
Cuomo said, "I could see myself endorsing any individual regardless of party label depending on the position, depending on the individual."
And Breslin, the deputy minority leader, has his own trouble. He's facing a primary from Albany County Legislator Shawn Morse, a primary that is supported by his fellow Democrats, the four member independent Democratic Conference.
"I'm disappointed that fellow Democrats involved in the race here, a fellow Democrat who is supported by Republicans," Breslin said. Then there's the issue of campaign cash. Republicans have a lot more of it and are already spending it. Buffalo Republican Mark Grisanti is already on the airwaves and a recent campaign finance report showed he's spent more than $120,000 on TV ads and mailers so far this year.
And yet, at this point, in the middle of July, it's probably too soon to tell who will ultimately win the majority. In 2010, for example, Grisanti's race against incumbent Democrat Antoine Thompson became competitive at the last minute. Grisanti won the race in a squeaker.
"We know of some seats right now that are expected to be very tight elections. There are likely going to be surprises that we're not even thinking about," said Siena College poll spokesman Steve Greenberg.
And then there's the four member IDC, made up of Senators Jeff Klein, Diane Savino, David Carlucci and David Valesky, who have aligned themselves with the GOP. Control of the Senate could hinge on what the IDC does in aftermath of the general election.

*I have no ties to Applied Nutriceuticals, they just provided me a month of neovar in return for a log. I hope to give a good and honest review of this product.
My 1 month goals:
overhead squat, 10 rep: 85 (+20 pounds)
1RM bench: 250 (+25 pounds)
Body fat: drop 1%
overall goal: recomp and get strong.
Current stats:
(what I will use to gauge effectiveness)
DL max: --------315
weight: ---------180lbs
right arm:--------14.75"
waist (at navel): -35.5"
Bench 1RM-------225
mil press 2RM----135
Rack pull 3RM --- 275
Log details:
I am hoping to get some sort of comparison between neovar and kreacepsXS. I ran a 2 month log that I just completed using RPM, kreaceps, and incarnate. I will keep everything besides the creatines as similar as possible. Swell is going to be my source for BA instead of incarnate, and I am using bulk super cissus.
so my log has changed in this fashion:
Standard supplement dosing:
swell first thing
1 cordygen5
protein shake (w/ 1cup oats, miracle greens, blueberries, milk, cinnamon)
4 neovar
fish oil
giant resveratrol
2 cordygen5
post workout:
4 neovar
protein shake with 1 cup oats and a small amount of fruit and milk
giant resveratrol
fish oil
adam MV
sleep time:
My workout
1) Military press variation (pick one and stick with it a while, usually work up to something heavy for a single, but can do rep work if you're feeling beat up, do not "max" out on this day, try to always leave 10lbs in the tank)
a) Standing military press
b) Seated military press
c) Seated military press off pins in the squat rack (singles only)
2) DB flat bench for reps (2-3 sets, keep it very easy, just getting in volume)
3) Lat exercise, your choice
4) Lat exercise, your choice
5) Something for upper back -rear delts in particular (bent over raises, reverse pec dec, etc)
1) Main movement (pick one, and work up to heavy single, double or triple)
a) Squat (wide, narrow, low, high)
b) Deadlift (sumo, conventional, rack pulls)
c) Goodmorning
2) Accessory work, rep range 3-20
a) squat
b) leg press
c) lunges/etc.
3) Low back
a) Pull throughs
b) hyperextensions
4) Abs (I prefer rope pull down abs on this day to unload the back)
Wednesday: Off
1) Bench, max effort, pick 1, work up to heavy single double or triple:
a) 3 second pause bench (competition grip or pinky on the ring, these you ALWAYS just do singles with)
b) Heavy triples
c) Close grip (pinky on rings)
d) Competition grip (index finger on the ring)
e) Any of the above with mini bands attached***
2) Board work if possible (1-2 board, rep range from 1-5 reps), if not, incline or decline for reps (3-20)
3) If doing board work, then do incline or decline, if not doing board work, pushdowns or skull crushers for higher reps.
1) Shrugs
2) Biceps
3) Grip/forearms
4) Upper back
5) Abs
Friday is fun, do what you want. NEVER fail on a secondary exercise; always leave just a little in the tank. If you fail on the first exercise, make sure it's for no other reason than the weight was just too heavy that particular day! If you are a crack head and worry that you're not getting enough volume, you can either up the reps on the secondary exercises, *OR* after you max out on exercise #1, drop back down to about 90% and do a few reps there, again, DO NOT HIT FAILURE.
Personal background:
cliff notes: I was once a dedicated BB'er and athlete, and have been sedentary for about 4 years. I started getting off my ass again about 5 months ago.
So I'm no stranger to the gym, but my body had forgotten a lot of what it used to know. Also I have changed my routine and eating habits a lot from what I used to do back then. Before it was all isolation movements and body builder splits, now it is a lot of compounds and low reps, and now I'm not scared to eat to support the muscle growth.
Not very high, I am skeptical of CEE, but excited to give it a try for the first time with an open mind.

President's Message by Dr. Joe Olson
Dr. Joe Olson - Photo by Michael Sullivan, The News-Review
A COMMUNITY COLLEGE IS MOST successful when it exists in symbiosis with its community. Living together for mutual benefit. There is considerable recent hard data to show that Umpqua Community College benefits Douglas County; that our students appreciate what we do for them, and that the voters, by a growing margin, support our future needs. We recently made public the findings of a study of the College's economic impact on Douglas County. "Altogether," this study found, "the The study concluded that UCC "plays a significant role in the local economy and is a sound investment from multiple perspectives." It showed:
A study of student sentiment, the Community College Survey of Student Engagement or CCSSE, found UCC to be above average in four of five national benchmarks. Ninety-five percent said they would recommend UCC to a family member or friend. Students report the College works hard to connect with and serve them and that faculty challenges them -- and Voters were asked whether they would approve a bond to pay for the construction of a building on campus for allied health and science programs, a second one to house industrial technology programs, and to buy or lease a site in South County to make UCC more accessible to students and the public there. More than half of those polled said they would vote to approve the bond. Two-thirds of the sample said they had attended either a class or activity at UCC, indicating a high interest in the College and its offerings. With the economy as uncertain as it is, with the workplace changing as rapidly as it does, with the demand for workers with advanced degrees so important to our county, UCC has an important role to play. Whatever your aspirations, they begin here. We're committed to the education and quality of life of the people in our community. Dr. Joe Olson |

Don't quit on these Oakland Raiders
Editors note: I am proud to introduce to the Dark Side, Raider Nation Superfan himself; Darth Raider. Yes, THAT Darth Raider. The man in the black suit and cape who sits in the North endzone opposite the Black Hole aptly named "The Dark Side" merely because of his presence. He is home at last to take his post on the Deathstar at Thoughts From the Dark Side. The force is strong with this one so before he begins remotely choking me out, I will hand the controls over to the artist formerly known as Anakin Skywalker, the Lord of the Sith; Darth Raider.
Never Quit.
You win, you lose, you rise, you fall, but you must never quit.
You don't cash it in on one lost hand, you don't just block-but counter, you don't lie down after a knockdown and I repeat; YOU NEVER QUIT.
Sure, it's easy to say that the Oakland Raiders did quit from many fans point of view... a couch, a La-Z-Boy or a stool. But I sense more than half of those who criticize have never even played Sports, hated PE in High School, and do not live in this World to sweat.
I have previously played Sports, continue to play Sports and will continue to compete as long as my body permits. I know when you win, it's a sweet slice of Heaven. I know when you lose, it's like a dagger in your spine and soul while your face is on fire. Quitting? That is never an option..and it never will be. The best part of participating in competition is knowing if I lose, I have another chance to redeem myself the next day. I know that you will always live to fight another day..
With all that being said, what can be done to help this Football team? Is it the scheme? Is it the talent? Is it the fact we employ a Rookie Owner, Rookie GM, Rookie Coach and Rookie Defensive Coordinator?
Perhaps the answer lies in all of the above? Thoughts like these keep the Lord of the Sith, Master of all Evil, Darth Raider up all night.

Podcatching without an iPod
You don't need an iPod to participate in the recent phenomenon known as Podcatching. We'll show you how to receive and play back podcasts in Linux.
Podcasting is the latest buzz in the world of weblogs. Also known as time shifting audio, podcasting is a method of delivering audio streams broadcast in mp3 format via rss feeds, so that they can be downloaded automatically and played at leisure. By subscribing to an RSS feed with mp3 enclosures, you can receive new podcasts automatically for playback on your favorite mp3 player. You can think of podcasting as TiVO for radio. The name podcasting derives from Apple's iPod, but the name is inaccurate, because you do not need an iPod to listen to these files. A podcast is the broadcast program, and the act of receiving a feed is called podcatching. Although many podcasts, like many blogs, are trivial, high quality material is also available. Doug Kate at IT Conver-sations [1], for instance, has made over 300 recordings of interviews and keynote speeches from IT conferences. Podcasts contain interviews with key players in the IT industry, old and new, as well as highlights from conferences, speeches, and readings. Big media corporations like the BBC in the UK are also showing interest in the genre and releasing some of their radio broadcasts as podcasts.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Geothermal - Introduction
Although geothermal energy is categorised in international energy tables amongst the 'new renewables', it is not a new energy source at all. People in many parts of the world have used hot springs for bathing and washing of clothes since the dawn of civilisation. An excellent book has been published with historical records and stories of geothermal utilisation from all over the world (Cataldi, et al., 1999).
Electricity has been generated by geothermal steam commercially since 1913, and geothermal energy has been used on the scale of hundreds of megawatts for five decades, both for electricity generation and direct use. The utilisation has increased rapidly during the last three decades. Geothermal resources have been identified in some 90 countries and there are quantified records of geothermal utilisation in more than 70 countries. Electricity is produced by geothermal in some 25 countries. Five of these countries obtain 15-22% of their national electricity production from geothermal. In 2004, the worldwide use of geothermal energy was about 55 TWh of electricity (Bertani, 2005), and 76 TWh for direct use (Lund, et al., 2005). Fig. 11-1 shows the installed capacity and the energy produced by geothermal by continent.
Electricity production increased by 16% from 1999 to 2004 (annual growth rate of 3%), and direct use by 43% (annual growth rate of 7.5%). Only a small fraction of the geothermal potential has been developed so far, and there is ample space for an accelerated use of geothermal energy, both for direct applications and electricity production.
Of the total electricity production from renewables of 2 968 TWh in 2001, 91% came from hydropower, 5.7% from biomass, 1.8% from geothermal and 1.4% from wind. Solar electricity contributed 0.06% and tidal 0.02%. A comparison of the renewable energy sources shows the electrical energy cost to be US$ 0.02-0.10/kWh for geothermal and hydro, US$ 0.04-0.08/kWh for wind, US$ 0.03-0.12/kWh for biomass, US$ 0.25-1.60/kWh for solar photovoltaic and US$ 0.12-0.34/kWh for solar thermal electricity. Heat from renewables is also commercially competitive with conventional energy sources. The current cost of direct heat from biomass is US$ 0.01-0.06/kWh, geothermal US$ 0.005-0.05/kWh, and solar heating US$ 0.02-0.25/kWh (WEA, 2004).
Geothermal energy is independent of weather conditions, contrary to solar, wind, or hydro applications. It has an inherent storage capability and can be used both for base-load and peak power plants. However, in most cases, it is more economical to run the geothermal plants as base-load suppliers. Fig. 11-2 clearly reflects the variable capacity factors of power stations using the four renewable sources. At end-2001, wind energy was in the leading position with 70.1% of installed capacity, followed by geothermal with 24.4%. Geothermal was, however, the leading electricity producer with 53.8% of total production, followed by wind energy with 43.7%. Geothermal's relatively high share of electricity production reflects the reliability of its plants, which can be operated at capacity factors in excess of 90%.
Geothermal energy has until recently had a considerable economic potential only in areas where thermal water or steam is found concentrated at depths of less than 3 km in restricted volumes, analogous to oil in commercial oil reservoirs. This has changed in the last two decades with developments in the application of ground-source heat pumps using the earth as a heat source for heating or as a heat sink for cooling, depending on the season. This has made it possible for all countries to use the heat of the earth for heating and/or cooling, as appropriate. It should be stressed that heat pumps can be used basically everywhere.
Geothermal energy is independent of weather conditions, contrary to solar, wind, or hydro applications.
