I am a physical oceanographer with skills in fluid mechanics including scaling, analytics, laboratory and numerical modeling. My areas of application include coastal oceanography, mesoscale meteorology and biogeochemical-physical interactions in the ocean.
My largest scholarly contributions have been to 1) understanding flow over and around topography and particularly canyons, and the resulting impacts on cross-shelf exchange. I have also made significant contributions to 2) biological-physical interactions and in particular the impact of surface processes on the timing of the phytoplankton spring bloom and 3) in collaboration with D. Steyn, I have contributed to the study of atmosphere buoyancy driven flows in the mountains. 4) Lastly, I work in an interdisciplinary oceanography group within the Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences. As a community member I have contributed in a number of fields, usually applying my modeling or analytic skills. If one can create a simple model of a phenomena so much of our intuition and understanding can be illustrated and quantified.
My newest project (since Fall 2013) has been a short-term forecast model for the Salish Sea as part of the Marine Environment Observation, Predication and Response Network of Centres of Excellence.
1) Flow over Topography in the Ocean, particularly Canyon Flows
Long Term Goal: To be able to understand the rotationally dominated flow over topography and quantitatively estimate the cross-bathymetric gradient flows and the scalar fluxes they generate.
2) Biological-physical Interactions and Modeling
Long Term Goal: Produce local models of the lower trophic-level ecology and carbon/oxygen/nitrogen cycles based on both simplified and realistic physical models of local coastal regions. Use these models to investigate the relevant processes that determine primary productivity, carbon fluxes and acidity.
3) Buoyancy Driven Flows in the Atmosphere
General Goal: Defining and quantifying buoyancy driven flows through and on our local mountains.

Power in the House of Representatives shifted to the Republicans today when Republican leader John Boehner was officially elected Speaker, creating a new challenge for President Obama's Democratic agenda.
(Watch a report on this story at left)
After two years of embracing their status as the "party of no," Republicans say they are ready to take the reins and put new emphasis on cutting government spending and reducing the size of the federal bureaucracy.
"The American people have humbled us. They have refreshed our memories as to just how temporary the privilege to serve is," Boehner said after taking the speaker's gavel. "Hard work and tough decisions will be required of the 112th Congress. No longer can we fall short. No longer can we kick the can down the road. The people voted to end business as usual, and today we begin carrying out their instructions."
But as the House got down to business, partisan jabs also returned from a winter break, CBS News Correspondent Nancy Cordes reports.
"Our mission is not to redistribute wealth or tell people how to live their lives," Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor said after officially being installed as majority leader.
All but nine of the 96 new members are Republicans.
"My head is somewhat spinning because not 20 minutes ago the new speaker of the House stood where you are and said he was going to be listening to people," Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., said while speaking on the floor.
Boehner received 241 votes from the new House, in which Republicans have a 49-seat majority. Outgoing Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi received 173, and 19 votes were cast for other congressmen. After his election, Boehner walked to the podium with tears in his eyes (as he is wont to do). His colleagues gave him a standing ovation.
Republicans' goal is to "give government back to the people," Boehner said.
With that goal in mind, the GOP is instituting new House rules today that put an emphasis on accountability and transparency. Later this week, the House will vote for its first spending cut of the year, a 5 percent reduction in the budget Congress has set for its offices and leadership staff.
Next week, Republicans will keep their campaign promise to vote on on the House floor for a repeal of the Democrats' health care reform package. While the GOP has gained control of the House, their power will be checked in the Senate, where Democrats still hold a 53-vote majority. And Mr. Obama, of course, retains the power to veto any legislation Congress sends to him.
"We will not always get it right. We will not always agree on what is right," Boehner acknowledged. "A great deal of scar tissue has built up on both sides of the aisle. We cannot ignore that, nor should we. My belief has always been, we can disagree without being disagreeable to each other."
Boehner assumed leadership today after Pelosi handed him a large gavel.
Pelosi, eliciting laughter in the chamber, joked the gavel was "larger than most gavels here, but the gavel of choice for Speaker Boehner."
On a serious note, the outgoing speaker praised the last Democratic Congress for passing landmark pieces of legislation like health care reform and the repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. Pelosi also noted that she was the first female speaker in U.S. history.
"Now more doors are wide open for all of America's daughters and granddaughters," she said.
Pelosi praised Boehner as "a man of conviction, a public servant of resolve, and a legislative leader of skill" and promised that the Republican majority would find a "willing partner" in the Democratic minority.
Busloads of Boehner's family and friends, including 10 of his 11 siblings, were in Washington today to watch transfer of power. The children and grandchildren of the 112th Congress sat among the lawmakers on the House floor as the vote was tallied for the new speaker.
After addressing the new House, Boehner is participating today in a ceremonial swearing-in and photo-op session with House members.

can a butt augmentation be combined with buttock implants? i have been considering a butt augmentation for the second time but sense i do work out i am scared for it not to last very long i thought about getting liposculpture and asking the doctor to shape my hips with that and get butt implants as well. is that possible?
Can a Buttocks Augmentation Be Combined with Buttock Implants?
Doctor Answers 4
Buttock Augmention can be done with Either FAT, Implants or Both.
I think you are confused about buttock augmentation. ANYTHING placed into the buttocks to increase their prominence can be described as a Buttock Augmentation.
The operation can be done with fat transfer alone (Brazilian Butt Lift), placement of buttock implants alone or with combined buttock implant placement and adding fat grafting to feather the implant margins and fill up the areas the implant may not reach. Depending on your buttock size and appearance, the look you want to achieve and the amount of available fat you can have any of these procedures.
Buttock implants can be combined with a bit of fat grafting for maximum improvement
Hi there-
Both implants and fat grafting, in the Brazilian Butt Lift technique, are buttock augmentation methods.
If you are hoping to achieve buttock fulness through the use of implants, with fat grafting for maximization of shape and symmetry, I do think this would be possible.

Choosing a butt augmentation doctor
Patients today have many options in butt augmentation. Patients may choose a Brazilian Butt lift which consists of aggressive liposuction to the abdomen and trunk. The fat that is collected is then cleaned, processed, and then strategically transplanted to the butt. Patients appreciate their new figure, their tight waist, and their round and full buttocks. Patients who do not have adequate fat for transplanting, may consider receiving Butt implants If done properly, butt implants can create a beautiful long lasting result- especially in patients who do not have enough fat to receive a successful Brazilian Butt Lift.

If you mean to take the fat and use it in the HIPS, then use a buttock implant to enhance the BUTTOK area, then yes these two procedures can be done

Summer of Pakistan
One of the finest and most extensive audio journalism series' I've heard in all the years podcasting has existed, is being produced this summer by Chris Lydon's Radio Open Source. His focus has been Pakistan, past, present, and future. As part of his series, "Another Pakistan," he has spoken with a cross section of people from politics, industry, activism, entertainment, immigration and more. In a country that is so important on the world scene, home to cities with a larger population then some countries in Europe, the information contained in these programs is not only interesting, it is vital. … Read Full Text

Asia is huge and open source is still emerging in most of it. Some countries like China and India lead the way with open source development and usage. Some like Sri Lanka have very high capacity of open source developers. On the other end of the spectrum, there are high income economies like Singapore and Hong Kong that are not moved by software license fees (but may have other motivations). Some governments such as in Malaysia are pro-active in terms of proposing open source as a default implementation, but execution is poor. What about South Korea where until about 2007 everything required ActiveX (and a Windows PC) — now embracing open source at a rapid pace?
Travelling, working and living in many parts of Asia it is clear that Asians are hungry for open source. Many Western open source companies look at Asia as their last part of growth, and at best perform business through partners. Open source projects without promotion or a foot in the door find it hard to succeed. Language barriers might have similar itches scratched repeatedly.
This is not to say that many companies do not want to do business in Asia. From different cultures to different business practices to different infrastructure and language requirements, many are just overwhelmed by the unknown.
Come to this talk to learn about open source in Asia. From communities of developers, to communities of business users and governments, we not only show you who they are, but how active they are and how to harness them.
When it comes to business do you go the partner route or do you create Asian pricing in a world that is rapidly becoming flat and customers can use a search engine to find cheaper overseas prices? How do you localise your support and is it necessary in all markets? Can you perform training in English, effectively? Can you afford a budget for adoption to recognise revenue later?
Come see some of the results of the Asian Open Source Industry and Community Census presented at this conference.

Ekklesia as a Qualitative Term…
Recently, in the comments of the post "Geographically Local Church" (see this comment and following), I made the statement that ekklesia is a qualitative term describing the people, as opposed to a quantitative term (HT: Stan, who has not started his blog yet).
When I say that "ekklesia" is 'a qualitative term describing the people', I mean that "ekklesia" states more about who the people are (that is, whose people they are) than where they are or how many they are. Thus, when Jesus said, "I will build my church…," he was making a statement about his people, not about their gathering togther.
This will be a new "ekklesia"- not a group of Roman citizens, but citizens of the kingdom of God. Believers now live as citizens of a heavenly kingdom, not an earthly kingdom. They gather together as fellow-citizens, not because they are told to do this, but because of their relationship to their king and to one another.
They are not only citizens of a new kingdom, they are also part of a new family. Since these people (the church) have been adopted into a family, they gather together with their family members. They do not have to be told to do this, they do this because of their relationship to the Father and to one another.
However, we cannot define them by their gathering together. They are defined by their relationship to the Father – as citizens of his kingdom or adopted members of his family.

CBO: Republican bill to improve Obamacare would increase deficit, reduce insured
Last week I wrote about one of the Republican bills to change the Obamacare law by excusing large employers from the mandate to provide health insurance for employees who worked between 30 and 39 hours a week.
The point of that piece was to focus on what I considered the deceptive language used by by Sen. Tim Scott, a Senate sponsor of the law, who suggested that employers who cut workers from 40 to 29 hours in order to avoid having to provide insurance benefits would be "complying" with the law, rather than seeking to defeat its purpose.
This morning, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office released its analysis of the House version of the bill, titled the "Save American Workers Act," which The Hill says has been touted by House Majority Leader Eric Cantor as a top legislative priority for Republicans.
CBO concludes that the bill's effects would increase deficits by $74 billion over the next 10 years, reduce the number of people who would otherwise have employer-subsidized health insurance by 1 million, increase the number who would end up getting insurance through Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) by something between half a million and a million, and therefore result in an increase in the total number of uninsured by half a million or less. The increase in the deficit would mostly come from the cost of increasing those on government-provided health care and reducing the amount the Treasury would collect in penalties that the government would impose on employers who don't provide insurance.
As I said in the previous post, the Obamacare case is extremely complicated with many moving parts. Efforts to amend it likewise have complicated costs and benefits. Those who now say they want to "repeal and replace" the Affordable Care Act should be pressed to be specific and substantive about their alternative ideas for reducing the number of uninsured Americans, so the complicated costs and benefits can be assessed.

Stand by your vote!!
Those who voted for the unaffordable care act need to defend it and run for re- election on the legislation they passed. They should not run away from this law (as many are doing).
The people will decide if they like their congress person, they can keep their congress person.
Also Eric, since when are you concerned about deficits?
What price freedom
"The increase in the deficit would mostly come from ... reducing the amount the Treasury would collect in penalties that the government would impose on employers who don't provide insurance." Which apparently is $7.4 billion a year, a mere pittance in an era of 500 billion dollar deficits.
But for that cost we regain our freedom to choose again. A small price to pay.
People should have only as much freedom as they can afford.
How much freedom do you have when you die young because you can't afford adequate health care?
As Kris Kristofferson put it:
"Freedom's just another word for nuthin' left to lose,
nuthin' ain't worth nuthin' but it's free."
Republican bill
Republican bill to decimate Obamacare would increase deficit, reduce insured.
Well, there's another Republican proposal that's destined for the trash bin of history.
When is someone on either side of the isle going to propose universal single payer health care? All we're doing with ACA and these Republican bills is to kick the can up and down the field while the public sits sick on the sidelines. Stop messing around and get a goal through the posts so we can move on to other problems this country needs to address.
I suspec that
if you talk to some of the more progressive Dems they'd tell you that a national health care (universal single payer) would be an ideal solution. They also know that any such legislation wouldn't make it to the ER alive.

Martinsried, Munich, Germany, 2012/01/30 - OSA delivers new levels of low latency, high speed and high availability - AdvaOptical.com. FSE: ADV
ADVA Optical Networking and Openreach, the infrastructure division of BT Group, today officially launched a new Optical Spectrum Access (OSA) service. Forming part of Openreachs Optical Spectrum Service (OSS) portfolio, OSA provides the U.K.s enterprise community with new levels of network connectivity capable of responding to todays increasingly demanding business needs. Built on the FSP 3000, enterprises will now be able to transport enormous amounts of data throughout the U.K. with much improved latency and unparalleled encryption and security.
The response to the FSP 3000 introduction has been exceptional, said Jon Hurry, MD, Strategy, Commercial, Portfolio & Policy, Openreach. Since the pre-launch of this service weve collaborated with a range of communications providers, whose customers are expecting dramatically more from their networks. Scalability and protecting their investment is at the heart of our customers strategy; they need to transport increasing amounts of data across greater distances more securely and faster than ever before. OSA meets those criteria. Todays launch marks a milestone for U.K. businesses seeking to position their networks as a competitive advantage.
The OSA service provides dedicated single or resilient point-to-point optical fibre links throughout the U.K. With a route distance of up to 103km, the service accommodates a range of interfaces and uses the same low-latency technology deployed extensively in many of the worlds leading financial trading networks. Configured to specific networking demands and accommodating a full range of protocols and service interfaces, OSA has been built with the sole purpose of moving large amounts of data faster, farther and more securely.
This is an incredible time to be involved in U.K. networks, commented Alistair Swales, senior vice president, U.K. sales, ADVA Optical Networking. In less than one month weve seen over 200 design requests from customers interested in the new OSA service. This is simply unparalleled. Our R&D teams are working closely with Openreach to ensure this new service fulfils its promise and takes U.K. enterprise networking to previously unattainable heights. For todays businesses and their mission-critical data, OSA is an imperative.
The FSP 3000 is a scalable Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) system. It is specifically designed for communications providers and large enterprises that require a flexible, cost-effective system that will multiplex, transport and protect high-speed data, storage, voice and video applications. The FSP 3000s modular architecture, rack-mountable shelves, hot-swappable modules, universal cards, transparent interfaces and qualifications with all leading Storage Area Network (SAN) vendors enables Openreach to meet its customers varied requirements and to easily provision services of any standard protocol.

Katherine Center: Get Lucky
Beautifully blond and wonderfully Texan, Katherine Center has published three novels in less than a decade, and each has been connected to Houston in some way. Her latest, Get Lucky, is about Sarah, a girl who returns to Houston after doing a very public crash-and-burn in New York City. Once she arrives here, she realizes how insignificant her job woes are in comparison to her sister's situation. Brokenhearted after years of trying to get pregnant and failing, she's given up on her dream of having a baby. "Sarah offers to become a surrogate for her sister," says Valerie Koehler, owner of Blue Willow Bookshop, where Center will appear for a reading and signing session.
Center's prose is charming and funny. "Mackie and Clive envisioned my pregnancy like a long stay at a family-owned spa," she writes. "They were going to cook for me and pamper me and spritz me with gratitude every day...They were getting a baby, and I was getting a 40-week, all-expense-paid, health-and-wellness-oriented, baby-riffic vacation." Ah, if only it were that simple. Pretty soon Sarah finds her sister growing distant, while Sarah and her brother-in-law find themselves having a baby. 7 p.m. 14532 Memorial Drive.

The recent EU-China summit - the first between the European Union and the new Chinese leadership - indicates the beginning of a new, ambitious relationship. Although it has been labelled a "strategic partnership" for a decade, relations have always been on a more ad hoc basis, dealing with specific issues, mostly related to the economy and human rights. Now, finally, a clear road map has emerged in an unprecedented joint document charting bilateral co-operation through to 2020.
Trade and investment issues remain high on the agenda, and both sides have taken a big step forward by launching negotiations on an investment agreement covering protection and market access. But most notable are the tone of the dialogue and the much widened areas of co-operation, including regional security, energy and cultural exchanges.
Tremendous changes have taken place in both Europe and China over the past 10 years. In that time, bilateral relations have grown stronger. Today the EU is China's biggest economic partner, with bilateral trade in goods and services reaching almost half a trillion euros last year. As the China Daily notes, this has led to the creation of jobs and business opportunities for both sides . Pressing global challenges have also drawn the two closer on security issues.
President Xi Jinping has described their relationship as two civilisations pushing for the progress of humankind. Meanwhile, Premier Li Keqiang said: "Any problem in China-Europe relations can be resolved as long as we increase communication and enhance understanding." This is the first time an official Chinese statement has raised EU-China relations to such a high level. It is in sharp contrast to Sino-US relations, where Beijing seems to be encountering many insurmountable problems.
The fact is that the EU and China have already become the key pillars of the international system; they do not place their trust and security in any residual unipolar system. With the end of the cold war, China's security concerns have shifted fundamentally, almost exclusively to the Sino-US relationship. This concern - in the form of the militarised US "pivot to Asia" - has compelled Beijing to pay close attention to the peaceful, rule-binding and multilateral EU approach to global governance.
Largely inspired by the European integration process, there has been a movement to create multilateral diplomatic and security mechanisms. For the first time in history, there is no major geopolitical conflict on the Eurasian mainland.
It is clear that China is now drawn into a continental orientation, because its long-term strategy involves the search for a safe environment for its economic and political development. The success of this strategy may ultimately hinge on civilisational compromise between the West and China, but not on naked international power politics.
The "West" is clearly divided. On one side is a Europe that is culturally tolerant of civilisational dialogues; on the other is the US, still running an "empire of denial", which could mean an ongoing global crusade against cultural challenges from other civilisations.
After all, Europe began the cultural debate with China some 400 years ago. It was the Catholic Church that first recognised the vast potential for expanding the Christian community beyond racial boundaries. Through a process of learning the customs, languages and thought patterns of targeted societies, the Jesuits attempted to restructure the Christian order according to local systems. A debate on whether Chinese ritual practices, such as ancestor worship, were in fact compatible with Christianity preoccupied missionaries for a century, and the eventual European rejection of the Chinese value system during this so-called "rites controversy" was a defining event in the history of the West's relationship with China. It also planted the seeds of a fundamental misunderstanding of China.
It is hard today to understand the extraordinary vehemence and bitterness surrounding this theological argument between China and the Christian world. Although it began as a theological debate, it eventually involved three popes, two Chinese emperors, hundreds of missionaries and the entire theologian faculty at the Sorbonne, the intellectual centre of the counter-reformation.
This first encounter is conveniently forgotten in the West. Hence, it falls upon the Chinese to put forward the idea of returning to the debate, which was relatively free from cultural bias and racial prejudice.
The EU also seems to have realised that its traditional approach to Asia is out of step with the continent's own trends. Asia is no longer interested in Western imports of values and institutions and the EU should abandon its efforts to transfer its own post-war solutions. Instead, it should focus on reviving the historical approach of cultural compromise and build influence on a more solid moral ground.

wager 2% of my bankroll on each game. I've actually lowered this again
this year. It was 4%, before the lockout. Then, last year it was 3%
and now this year it's 2.5%.
Class...........pay attention........."
But I know what ya mean. GL to ya this year.
Vegas doesn't offer these, 5Dimes does so they can get more puck action. I stand by it saving money. Also with the plus money it makes even more of a difference.
I would like to see your mathematics. Because laying that kind of juice will kill you. No way will it even out.
Hey andarmac99,
I just saw your question. The -1 lines do include the OT and Shootouts. The difference from the ML is that the -1 will get the juice lower. So you are giving up a goal to get about .71 cents of juice off the wager. What is actually happening is that you are taking a chance of making a win into a tie, playing this way.
To me it pays off very well doing it this way. Yes, you will get your share of ties, but when the favorite is -170 or lower you can actually make that big fave into a slight dog, which is really good.
Also in the case of the big fave losing outright you save a ton of money because you have made that huge loss to a dog loss.

As we try to grasp a world swirling fast, we find that most news stories of importance have multiple sides and complexities. Some eventually make sense when we have all the pieces. Others we hold in abeyance.
Very much the latter is the news, still simmering, that the Dallas school district investigator escorted from the building last month by DISD police apparently was poking around in the background of Tonya Sadler Grayson, an executive director in the human resources department — and his boss. She oversees Jeremy Liebbe's investigative unit, which reviews employee misconduct and criminal history concerns.
Dig in a bit, and it's stranger still, like trying to find the treasure with a big hole ripped in the map. We won't comprehend this story until we know what's missing.
How do you know? Just try to take everyone at their word.
Grayson stated three times on her DISD job application that she never faced criminal charges, but online records show she served 12 months' probation in 1990 for misdemeanor criminal trespassing in Georgia, when she was 19.
Grayson says she "believed that my situation did not apply," but, once notified that it did, "I fully disclosed the misdemeanor from when I was 19 years old to the district prior to my employment."
Exactly right, says DISD spokesman Jon Dahlander: "The district stands behind her employment."
So why, then, did DISD cops escort Grayson's top investigator to the parking lot for doing his job? All she had to do was tell him what happened; if he refused to stand down, her bosses could have told him the same thing.
Instead, someone called the cops. Did Grayson know something she didn't want to risk Liebbe finding? Because if there's no such thing, why all the fuss?
Grayson, 44, joined DISD in January after working in human resources for BeautiControl, a Carrollton cosmetics company; American Airlines; and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. She received bachelor's and master's degrees in 2009 and 2011 from Capella University, a for-profit online college.
Liebbe, 35, has worked for DISD for about 10 years and won praise for uncovering the "cheese" heroin epidemic that killed several students. He also was accused in 2009 of pulling a gun on a mentally disabled man during questioning. DISD investigated Liebbe, who kept his job.
Earlier this year, Liebbe led the investigation into the DISD's sports recruiting scandal that prompted the recent firings of the athletic director and 14 others. Some of those fired officials already plan to call on Liebbe at their appeals hearings, which could complicate things.
Obviously, there's more story to tell here, and we must hope an investigation into Liebbe contracted to a private law firm will provide it. Unless those answers involve a hard-working DISD investigator going too far, the district has some explaining to do. Too much about this story doesn't add up.

Cantlay fights through sore back en route to runner-up finish at Hotel FitnessSeptember 01, 2013
By Jeff Shain, PGATOUR.COM Correspondent
FORT WAYNE, Ind. – No, the result isn't what Patrick Cantlay wanted.
The bigger question, perhaps, is whether Sunday's runner-up finish can afford him what he needs.
A gallant run through the Hotel Fitness Championship gave way to a pained ending for the youngest entrant in the Web.com Tour Finals. With the sore back he'd been trying to ignore speaking louder than previous days, Cantlay couldn't hold off the challenge of former Masters champion Trevor Immelman.
It wasn't immediately clear which hurt worse, though the former world's top amateur certainly wasn't interested in pinning his even-par 72 on a physical ailment.
"I'm not going to blame anything on my back because I played well all week in spite of it," Cantlay said. "It is what it is. Putting doesn't have anything to do with my back, and I didn't make any putts today."
To a certain extent, that's true. The stress fracture in one of his lower vertebrae didn't prevent Cantlay from starting his week with rounds of 68-65-64. And there's no torque generated in the putting stroke.
Cantlay certainly gave himself the opportunity at No. 18, firing a dart that set up an 8-foot birdie try to force a playoff. But his putt curled ever-so-slightly to the left, running just past the hole.
"It broke more than I thought," he said. "If anything, it was a misread. The stroke felt good."
The silver lining is that Cantlay stands No. 2 on the Finals' money list, with $108,000 next to his name after the first of four events. PGA TOUR cards await the top 25 who aren't already graduates from the Web.com Tour's Regular Season.
Having just missed a card from the first wave, Cantlay is off to a fantastic start.
But is it good enough to allow himself a chance to take a week off to rest his back?
"I'm really not sure what I'm going to do right now," he said.
Part of the dilemma is that with the Finals in their debut season, there's no measuring stick. No one really knows how much money it'll take to lock up one of those 25 cards. And since Finals earnings also determine entry priority to start next season, it isn't enough to just grab the last card.
Crunching a few numbers, Cantlay appears in good shape. His $108,000 paycheck equates to finishing 10th in all four Finals events. Of course, there will be another winner and runner-up at next week's Chiquita Classic to shake up the top.
Also, a quick look at each of the past three Web.com Tour seasons also shows that whoever finished runner-up in the season opener still hadn't fallen out of the top 10 after four events.
On the other hand, recall that Cantlay – who won the Colombia Championship in Week 2 – tried to stand pat for three months after hurting his back and wound up sliding too far down the ladder.
"I'm not sure," he said when asked about the dilemma. "I've got to talk to some family and friends, see what's up, and I've got to see how I'm feeling tomorrow."
That's been the way it's been since Cantlay decided to re-enter the fray: Week by week, day by day.
He acknowledged at midweek that if he'd been able to qualify for the first batch of PGA TOUR cards, he wouldn't have come to Sycamore Hills. He might have taken a couple of events off before playing for positioning.
After getting knocked out, though, "sitting events out was not an option in my head. I was going to go for it (and) do everything I could going forward to play well."
Cantlay has had to make adjustments, limiting his warmup time to perhaps 40 balls on the range and foregoing any swing work after a round.
"Less is more," he said, adding that the back hurts least after the first couple of holes in a round because he gets to walk between shots.
It worked wonderfully for the first three days. Though the dull ache was a constant presence, Cantlay's ball-striking kept him in the fairway and set up plenty of birdies.
Sunday, though, was a different story. Though he hit 10 of 14 fairways and 12 greens in regulation, the recovery efforts put extra stress on the back. Three bogeys in a four-hole span around the turn wiped out what was left of a three-shot lead to begin the day.
On at least two occasions, Cantlay could be seen clutching his back after a shot from the rough.
"Coming out of the rough, a couple of shots definitely aggravated it," he said. "It's been like that all week. It was worse today, but only just because I've been playing the last however many days."
It's been three weeks now, factoring in Cantlay's two missed cuts to end the Regular Season. Rest is the only way it'll truly get better.
First, though, there's a PGA TOUR card to secure. Not to mention a priority number of some value.
Stay tuned.

6 Awesomely Ridiculous Chinese Superhero Knockoffs
Hey Gang! You're gonna get a kick out of these! When I was growing up all I ever wanted was were Spader-Man, Specialman, Star Knight, Silver Bat, Change Robot, and especially Robert Cop toys! But I guess I had to settle with Spider-Man, Superman, Darth Vader, Batman Transformers, and Robocop action figures. I guess we should just be thankful for what we got.
Who is the hell are these Superheros! Apparently you can find these toys below in most dollar store around America. I guess they make great birthday or holiday gifts for kids you really don't care about. Seriously will the kids even be able to tell the difference?
My question is, when will they started to turns these toys into movies? I'd like to see Robert Cop and Robocop battle it out.
What does Spader-Man actually do!? What the hell is a Spader?
We all know Superman is special so it's only appropriate to call him Specialman? I guess so.
I Have have no idea what Star Knight is supposed to be! Darth Vader on a police motor cycle!? What!? Is he patrolling the galaxy?
Robocop's name is Robert and he's a cop so we gotta have Robert Cop! Thats what he would have wanted to feel human again. But wait a minute... Robocops name was James Murphy!
Silverbat must be the Lone Ranger as Batman, or Batman as the Lone Ranger?
And if your ever going to make a knock off or Transformers it's gotta be called Change Robot, becuase that what they do... right? Change?

I've attached the following:
This crash does not reproduce when my fixes for this bug (6497639)
and 6599425 are applied.
The fix for this bug (6497639) has been forward ported to
Dolphin/JDK7-B22, 160_10-baseline, and Dolphin/JDK7 main/baseline.
See 6497639-webrev-cr0-160_10.tgz and 6497639-webrev-cr0-170_main.tgz.
Please see the attached 6497639-webrev-cr0.tgz file for
the proposed fix. This proposed fix is relative to 1.6.0_04.
It looks like are/were "just" four layers to this onion:
layer 1 - 6530811 fixed by Jon M. (6u4-B02, Dolphin-B17)
layer 2 - iterate over entire shared read-write space in GC
phase-3 if a RedefineClasses() call has been made
layer 3 - OopMapCache problem covered by 6599425
layer 4 - bad oop in ConstantPoolCacheEntry caused by weak
references to shared ConstantPools
The bad oop in the ConstantPoolCacheEntry appears to be
caused by a premature removal of the PreviousVersionNode
from the instanceKlass. The "old" ConstantPool is still
out there and valid, but is no longer present on the
previous version info list. It looks like the weak
reference to the ConstantPool is being collected even
though the ConstantPool is still out there. This looks
like another bad interaction between RedefineClasses()
and sharing.
Weak references are only kept alive when the underlying
object is found to be alive by another path. Shared
objects are a bit different. They are marked, but their
marks are cleared in GC phase-3 so they look like they
were never marked. I think this is what allows the weak
references to be collected. Once the weak reference is
gone, the PreviousVersionNode is deleted and we can no
longer update the ConstantPoolCache as needed when stuff
is redefined. This allows an oop to go bad in the cache.
If we're lucky we crash the next time GC processes the
ConstantPoolCacheEntry. If we're not lucky, we just
silently corrupt some memory because we're treating it
as an oop and it might be something else now.
I've completely rewritten the experimental fix for the
crash in comment #4. I've opted to try a sweep of the
shared read-write space when a RedefineClasses() call
has been made. This is the only way to be sure.
The experimental fix that I added to fix the crash in comment #4
was insufficient. While walking the previous version info, I was
only finding the EMCP methods; the obsolete methods were still
getting missed. I changed the algorithm to walk the stacks of the
JavaThreads instead and that caught both EMCP and obsolete methods.
During testing I did find one method in the HandleArea, but not on
the stack so I added logic to walk the JavaThread's HandleArea also.
Further testing revealed a missed ConstantPoolOop. While chasing
missed methodOops, I remember seeing some PreviousVersionNodes with
a live _prev_constant_pool, but an empty _prev_EMCP_methods. That
meant that all the methods had been GC'ed, but the constantpool
was still hanging around for some reason.
The bad OopMapCache failure mode is now covered by the following bug:
6599425 4/3 OopMapCache::lookup() can cause later crash or assert() failure
I forgot to update this bug with the results of the investigation
into the crash reported by Tomas in comment #4. This investigation
was done in mid-July. The methodOop for "java.lang.Object.wait(J)V"
isn't found because it is now in the "previous version" area. So
it's not in the normal methodOop array or a constantPool cache; we
have a weak ref to it and that's it. As an experiment, I added code
to walk through the "previous version" weak refs of the accessible
instanceKlasses via the SystemDictionary and applied
RecursiveAdjustSharedObjectClosure to the previous version oops.
That experiment allowed the methodOop for "java.lang.Object.wait(J)V"
to be found and we made it past the crash in comment #4. However, we
hit another crash in what appears to be the next layer of the onion.
The crash reported by Tomas in comment #4 occurs because
"java.lang.Object.wait(J)V" is redefined when sharing is
enabled. When sharing is enabled, the oop is marked in
phase 1 by SystemDictionary::shared_oops_do() code path
via constantPoolCacheKlass::oop_follow_contents(). The
mark is reinitialized in phase 3 by the
SystemDictionary::shared_oops_do() code path via
instanceKlass::oop_oop_iterate_v() and whole series of
oop_oop_iterate() calls that eventually finds the method
oop in an objArrayKlass::oop_oop_iterate_v() call.
After "java.lang.Object.wait(J)V" is redefined, the oop
is marked in phase 1 by Threads::oops_do() via an
nmethod::oops_do() call. The mark is not reinitialized
in phase 3 and that is what causes the assertion to fail
in phase 4. The big question is why isn't the mark
reinitialized in phase 3...
I've been able to consistently reproduce the crash in comment #6.
I've tracked this particular failure mode to a bad oop in
SystemDictionary::_int_mirror. Note that spelling. For a while I
was chasing the bug by watching SystemDictionary::_int_klass.
So while I know that I have a bad oop, I have no idea (yet) how
it went bad.
Since there is more than one failure mode, I can't quite change
the status to "cause known" yet...
Update: the failure mode in comment #6 is being tracked by 6530811.
Running profiled application with -Xshare:off seems to be a work around.

Anoka County May 16 recognized the top and most improved recycling communities in the county.
The Most Prolific Municipal Recycling Program award went to the city of Andover. Including curbside pick-up, drop-off centers and recycling days, Andover recycled 260.83 pounds per person in 2011, according to Carolyn Smith of the Anoka County Integrated Waste Management Department. The average for all Anoka County communities was 194.6 pounds per person.
The Most Improved Recycling Program award went to the city of St. Francis. It increased its collection from 138.23 pounds per person in 2010 to 156.8 pounds per person in 2011.
Despite the advent of iPads, eBook readers and other electronic devices, paper continues to be the most recycled material, Smith said. There was about 32,600 tons of material recycled in Anoka County last year. Over 19,000 tons of that was paper, which buried the nearest material competitors. Andover's Recycling Coordinator Cindy DeRuyter said even with computers, a lot of documents still get printed.
Appliances, textiles and vehicle batteries accounted for about 5,400 tons while glass accounted for almost 5,200 tons of all recycled material in the county in 2011.
Tom Boshart of Andover said recycling is second nature to his family. They easily fill up multiple boxes with paper every week. They make a point of recycling food packaging cardboard. They pull the tabs off their pop cans and bring them to McDonalds, which the restaurant then recycles and uses the proceeds for the Ronald McDonald House Charities. The pop cans get crushed and dropped off at a recycling center each year. They change their own oil and recycle it and the filters.
Boshart is a member of the Andover Lions Club, which volunteers for the Andover recycling day events. Club members haul furniture, bikes and whatever else people bring, and they provide food for the volunteers staffing the event. The Lions club also participates in recycling eyeglasses, hearing aids and ink cartridges. The eyeglasses go to impoverished people across the world.
Decline of recycled material weight
Smith acknowledged that haulers allowing customers to throw all recyclable material into one container rather than multiple containers has helped make recycling easier. Nevertheless, recycling numbers had been decreasing from 209.04 pounds per person in Anoka County in 2007 to 191.66 pounds per person in 2010. The number increased to 194.6 pounds per person in 2011.
Smith said the general decline in weight of material recycled is likely due to multiple reasons. The economic recession is probably causing people to hold onto their old appliances rather than buy the newest option on the market and throwing out the old equipment. Besides eliminating a heavy appliance, less cardboard that holds the new appliances is being recycled.
Manufacturers have been working hard on making their packages lighter, Smith said. For example, some new water bottles use less plastic to be more eco-friendly. Aluminum cans are lighter than they used to be.
Although paper is still the dominant force in the recycling industry, people will likely be recycling less paper than before because some will choose to read newspapers or magazines online and will read books on their eBook readers.
In every community, curbside pick-up is the major collection method for recycled material.
Although DeRuyter is happy that Andover has been the most prolific recycling community in the county since 2007, she was quick to credit the other communities and Anoka County for working together to improve recycling numbers for all communities. The recycling coordinators for the different communities and county recycling officials meet once a month to share ideas. There are no company secrets and the recycling awards are not about competition in DeRuyter's mind. The goal is for everyone to do better.
Andover City Councilmember Julie Trude believes kids have made a big difference in making their parents aware of the importance of recycling.
"A lot of this starts with the children coming home to parents and finding ways we can change our lifestyle," Trude said.
This happened in her own home and she said she loves single-sort recycling.
2011 municipal recycling stats
The following is the amount of recycled material each Anoka County community accounted for in 2011. The communities were ranked based on pounds per person collected by haulers for curbside recycling, and for material collected by drop-off centers and recycling days.
1. Andover: 260.83
2. Hilltop: 239.56
3. Coon Rapids: 238.48

These days, your smartphone has a lot more to offer than Wi-Fi and phone calls. You can even use your phone for backup support on your next trip.
Remember the old rule about Xeroxing your passport? Hard copies, laminated, are always a good idea. But you also want to keep digital copies of your passport, driver's license, and medical prescriptions for backup.
Your smartphone can also do more than keep your calendar. Thanks to apps like TripIt and Passbook, a phone can store a year's worth of travel itineraries and boarding passes.
When renting a car or booking a hotel room, take pictures right away, so you don't get nailed for someone else's mistake.
And, when checking your bag at the airport, take pictures to show the condition it was in before the airline takes it.
Now, smartphones are only as smart as their users. So do double duty by backing up your phone, and install a locator app like "Find my iPhone" to track a lost phone. Or…if needed, to wipe all your personal data from potential thieves.

Help Name The Toronto Zoo's Baby Polar Bear
The Toronto Zoo has a new baby polar bear, and now that he's old enough to be viewed by the public, they've decided that he's old enough for a name, and they want the public to help decide what that name will be.
We've seen this little guy before - first when he took his first steps, and then when he took his first bath. He's adorable, and while I would love to name him Mr. Snuggleface, that's not one of the options the zoo is offering up.

Kix Brooks, 'New to This Town' – Song Review
As artists reach a certain point in their careers, the scope of what they can sing about narrows. Celebrity status makes it impossible for someone like Keith Urban to sing about picking up women at a bar, because he's both married and five years sober. Fans wouldn't buy it.
Kix Brooks has earned the right to sing about whatever he wants, but it's awkward to hear him go on about getting over a broken heart, as he does in his new solo single 'New to This Town.' The man has been married for over 30 years!
"Wish I was new to this town / Just pullin' in / Checkin' it out for the first time / Wish I could go anywhere / And not be afraid of finding you there / Girl when I see you around / I wish I was new to this town," Brooks sings during the chorus.
Next to cuts sang by Ronnie Dunn, the Kix Brooks-led Brooks and Dunn songs unfairly felt like add-ons. Now on his own, fans will find a surprisingly unique and charming voice. His delivery is gritty, like a mix of Tom Petty and Bob Dylan (when we could still understand him).
"I can't put my feet on this sidewalk without hearing you laugh and hearing you talk / Every street is a memory of just how good it used to be," he sings during the second verse. "I can't walk into that corner bar / Without someone asking how your are / And how you're doing, and how you've been / I gotta go through it all again."
Eagles' guitarist Joe Walsh is underused on this lead cut from Brooks' upcoming solo album. It begs for a big, bombastic solo between choruses, but the frequent friend to country music only gets a dribble, followed by another as the song fades away.
In a vacuum, 'New to This Town' works as a new way to express heartache — one can even visualize the dusty traveler walking with his cowboy hat pointed toward the ground, a dour expression on his face — but more than any other genre's fans, country music fans tie an artist to the story they tell. It doesn't have to be biographical, just believable. Anything less trivializes the loyalty that pushes one's career into its third decade.

The pilot program was the idea of Allen County Healthy Homes Program Director Amy Hesting and Fort Wayne-Allen County Health Commissioner Deborah McMahan.
McMahan said she first got the idea from looking at the approach Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, the new director of the Centers for Disease Control, is taking toward community health. Frieden is focusing on the social determinants of health instead of just looking at immunization and prevention. He has expanded the focus to include important elements of life that ultimately impact health.
"What we are trying to do here is create a microcosm where we can address those social determinants of health, but do it in places where people are already familiar with, and go to regularly, for help and assistance. We just want to provide the technical assistance to those anchors in the community that will hopefully address some of these important issues and improve the outcomes in health, mental health and education," McMahan said.
The department would like to determine the root causes of some of the health issues in the community and sees this as one way to approach it. The ideal neighborhood would have healthy and safe houses, with safe places to walk and play, as well as good places to shop where healthy food choices are available.
Hesting and McMahan recently met with housing partners here in Fort Wayne. The city of Fort Wayne, Habitat for Humanity, Community Action of Northeast Indiana, United Way of Allen County, Aging and in Home Services and the Fort Wayne Housing Authority are all on board with the idea.
McMahan said they asked Roger Reece, executive director at Associated Churches, to recommend a couple of churches to act as anchors in a neighborhood for the project. Reece recommended Anchor Community Church and New Zion Tabernacle, which are already in a strong neighborhood.
Having gotten Crystal Bush, senior pastor of New Zion Tabernacle, and Pastor Tim Hallman of Anchor Community Church in on the plan, the next step will be to have a meeting with all the church pastors in the area. After that they will meet with their congregations to gauge the interest. There will also be focus groups for citizens who might not be involved in the churches to see what their needs are. Once they get a feel for what services people need, they can decide where to start.
"The more someone is encouraging you (in healthy habits), the more likely you are to be successful. If the environment supports you, and if you have encouragement and support through that relationship, it should work. If that doesn't work, I don't know what will," McMahan said.
The program model is a work in progress. If they can get it to work in this area, they will take it to other parts of the city, areas with far fewer resources than this neighborhood. The idea is find out what the needs are and then use multiple agencies to support the innovations that are needed to make it a healthy neighborhood.
McMahan said every neighborhood will be different, but if they can discover a basic model to follow they will be able to adapt it to other areas. Hesting and McMahan said their primary focus is on improving conditions for children and the elderly.

Manchester United flop urges club to stick with Louis van Gaal: He deserves more time!
MANCHESTER UNITED should not sack Louis van Gaal, according to former Red Devils gaffer David Moyes.
The Dutchman's long-term future at Old Trafford is currently in major doubt thanks to the team's woeful displays on the pitch.
United, who lie in sixth place in the Premier League table, have failed to register a victory in their last eight games in all competitions and have only managed to find the back of the net six times during that period.
"He deserves more time"David Moyes
The three-time European Cup winners' torrid run, and their lack of goals, has caused a number of angry supporters to call for Van Gaal's head.
Moyes, who was sacked by United in April 2014, has sympathy for the former Ajax chief and believes he deserves more time to turn around the team's fortunes.
"I hope they stick with Louis Van Gaal, he deserves more time, it's still a work in progress for him," he told The Clare Balding Show on BT Sport.
"He's made some signings, from my experience in Spain it will take time for players from abroad to settle in.
"So, I think they should stick with it. They don't want to become a club which continuously changes their manager."
Watch the full interview with David Moyes on The Clare Balding Show tomorrow/tonight from 8.00pm on BT Sport 1

Men plead guilty over illegal cockfights
A large group of men arrested during raids on an illegal cockfighting ring have pleaded guilty to cruelty to animal offences.
Twenty-five of the more than 80 men charged faced court after raids on an illegal cockfight at Rockbank, in Melbourne's west, in September.
The court heard more than 200 birds had to be destroyed because of the illegal fights and more than a $100,000 was seized during the RSPCA raids.
The majority of those charged are from Vietnam.
The Sunshine Magistrates Court was told that cockfighting in Vietnamese culture was like horse racing in Australia, except that cockfighting was illegal and usually fatal.
The men were ordered to pay thousands of dollars to the RSPCA and barred from owning poultry for ten years.

Does a general penalty provision count as an enforcement provision? Please see the link below concerning the 2010 WI breastfeeding law which includes a $200 penalty for breaking this law.
This has the information about the fine.
I think the general penalty provision can be found here–https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/939/IV/61

Are there any laws pertaining to breastfeeding or pumping while you are in jail? I've seen some on while in prison but not in regards to jail..
Oh and this would be for the state of Wisconsin. Thank you.
Who enforces this? IE, is there anybody you can report someone to if they try to stop you from breastfeeding in public?
I am having issues at work with my boss cutting my hours because it is unfair to HIM to have to come in for 20 minutes during my shift so I can pump. He has cut them from 40 hours to 12!!! I am wondering is there anything I can do to pursue a lawsuit against him?
What is the law regarding nursing a child at work. I am a salaried employee and they want me to leave my office, but I can go into my husbands office which is my designated pumping room to pump and nurse. Cant I nurse anywhere, or does that not apply to when you are working/on break I work at a YMCA
What are my rights as an Exclusive breastfeeding mom…who has a court date for misdemeanor ? (Yes, my husband is verbally abusive and yes I didnt realize trying to explain myself and placing my leg in his is car door so he would listen….well it is grounds for arrest-ugh!!)
My son is 18months old.
I probably will also be required to serve a day of class for the offense ….so what are my rights there as well?
Thank you
I am exclusively breastfeeding my 12 week old daughter and I have never introduced formula to her. I breastfed my firstborn for an entire year. I am going thru a hostile custody battle with the father. The father has 2 hour placement with our daughter every other day. Recently, a change has been made by the Guardian ad Litem to our case without my discretion and now an overnight has been approved. I have not had adequate time to pump enough breastmilk for a 20-24 hour placement and the father consents that he would rather provide our daughter with formula. I do not approve of this and don't appreciate my efforts to exclusively breastfeed our 2nd child being discouraged. The father is aware of my disapproval. (The Guardian is currently MIA for questioning and that's why I'm posting here).
I would like to know what legal actions and advocates are available to me so I don't find myself being incriminated for not only my family value but also for the most recommended health benefit I can provide to our daughter at this time- breastfeeding. Please help!
Thank you.
Does anyone know what I should do?? I was at the walmart where i was told i couldnt feed my baby in dressing room. I told a csm but she laughed at me so i went outside to feed. They did offer me the bathroom but that is gross!!
[…] I became a mom for the first time, I printed out Wisconsin's Public Breastfeeding Law and stuck it in our diaper bag, always expecting to be harassed for nursing in public. I am pleased […]

Lawrence County (3-5) had first possession in the OT, and Marquis Lockridge scored on a 9-yard run.

Lawrence County gave up 14 first quarter points on a 1-yard Colton Morrison run and a 67-yard Critchlow to Max Taylor pass.
The Wildcats rallied on a 11-yard run by Lockridge which was set-up by a Tanner Wray interception at the Rebel 14-yard line.
�It was a great job by our kids,� said Lawrence County head coach David Marston. �We were down 14-0 and we weren�t even getting positive yardage on offense. We were three and out and losing yards.�
Lawrence County tied the game with 7:33 to play in the game as Lockridge scored on a 37-yard run around left end. Clint Brewer set up the score with a 44-yard run into Rebel territory.
Lawrence County wore down the Rebels as they had the ball for 30:20 compared to Franklin�s 17:40. Lawrence County also took advantage of three turnovers and was helped by 13 Rebel penalties for 106 yards.
Page 34, East Hickman 7: The Patriots (5-2, 5-0 District 12-AA) took a 4-touchdown lead in the first half and coasted as Zach Mizell completed 16 of 31 passes for 313 yards and four scores.

I had breast surgery 10 weeks ago. My right breast is still a little high. My dr does not believe in massaging or breast wraps. I would like to use a breast wrap. Can a wrap help my breast drop? Will wearing a breast wrap force my left breast to drop further? Should I leave it alone instead? I have 533 cc's silicone unders. Also, right breast is a little firmer than left one. Thank you.
Breasts Are Uneven? (photo)
Doctor Answers 12
Breast asymmetry in the early post op time after breast augmentation
It is not uncommon to have minor asymmetry in your breast in the early post operative time after breast augmentation surgery. Each breast will go thru several changes in the first 3-6 months after surgery but not necessarily at the same time. I would recommend following your surgeon's instructions at this time. Be patient and allow the normal healing process to be complete before you worry about slight asymmetry. Additionally, it is rare to find completely symmetric breasts, even with the most qualified and talented surgeon. Generally there are always slight asymmetries that occur both naturally and as a result of surgery, despite our best efforts.

Breasts are uneven 10 weeks postop
Thank you for your question and photo. From this one view it is hard to see much of a difference. You might've had some uneveness even preop, but as is often the case, we tend to look at results under the "microscope". This should've been pointed out to you by your surgeon at the preop. Some surgeons recommend massage or breast bands and some don't. At this point, I do not believe that it makes any difference. With submuscular implants, it might take 3-6 months for your implants to "settle" in place. Be patient, follow up with your surgeon. Good luck.

Uneven Breasts #breastimplants
Great question. I do believe in many cases that letting the implant just do it's thing is enough. You will need to give it 3 months to settle in. Things look pretty good so just be patient.

Asymmetry after implants
As my colleagues say, there are always some differences between right and left and sometimes these are very noticeable. You do have a definite difference but it is relatively small and well within the normal range. You are also still relatively soon after your surgery and I find that submuscular implants can take up to 5 or 6 months before a final result is reached. So be patient; it should improve. Good luck to you.
Breasts Are Uneven?
I am having trouble seeing much of a difference on the posted photo. It may look more symmetric than it appears, but this looks like a nice result. No one is exactly even, either before of after implants.
I would recommend discussing any deviation from post op instuctions with your surgeon before commencing.
Best wishes.
Breast Enhancement Surgery
Pole wraps and massage are used to help breast implants move down
Thank you for your question and photographs. I must say that your breast implants look excellent and you have a very nice result.
At 10 weeks the supra areolar fullness that you see on the right side in the photograph should improve with time. In my practice I encouraged patients who have an asymmetry like this to differentially massage the high implant downward but also upward to attempt to enlarge and keep the implant pocket open. The right implant looks perfect, thus a pole wrap might force it lower which I think would be a bad idea. At 10 weeks I do not believe breast implant displacement exercises on the left will harm your result and may improve it.

Postoperative breast concerns
You are still in the early postoperative period and should not be too concerned about how things look at this point. It will take a few more months to really see how things will look in the end, so I recommend following up with your plastic surgeon- if there is persistent and significant asymmetry down the line, this is often correctable.
Breast implant asymmetry
Without seeing your preoperative photos, it is impossible to judge your result. That being said, you look like you have a very satisfactory result to me.
Follow your doctor's instructions and keep your appointment and be patient!

Uneven Breasts
Bottom line is that it is too early to make any real judgement. I agree the difference is small. I too do not use wraps nor aggressive massage as there is NO science behind it and no proof that it does anything. Just keeps you busy and preoccupied.
Time heals all.
