Coolsculpting - My Journey to Recover My Stomach - Portsmouth, NH
I am a 48 year old woman, 5'6" tall and 148 lbs. After having two 10 lb babies my stomach has never been the same even with diet and exercise. I am only 8 lbs from goal weight, and I do not see how my stomach will be what I want.

People from many walks of life frequently ask me about funding sources for local water protection projects or initiatives, so MPC developed this list. While extensive, it is not exhaustive, and it's very possible that we are missing some. If that's the case, please contact me with relevant information to be added to this list.
The US EPA has a catalog of federal funding sources for watershed protection. Potential applicants can search by criteria such as the type of assistance sought and the type of organization seeking assistance (in this case, local government). If they select to "Get [search] results in table format", the resulting table will provide the name of the funding program, a brief overview, and the funding levels for fiscal year 2011. Information on grant funding in Region 5 (which is where northeastern Illinois is) can be found here.
www.grants.gov provides organizations with the ability to search for competitive grants from all grant-making Federal agencies, register to receive grant notices via e-mail, and download grant applications.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) provides access to a database of all federal programs available to state and local governments (including the District of Columbia); federally-recognized Indian tribal governments; territories (and possessions) of the United States; domestic public, quasi-public, and private profit and non-profit organizations and institutions; specialized groups; and individuals. After finding the desired program, contact the office that administers the program and find out how to apply.
Targeted Watersheds Grants Program
Established in 2003, the Targeted Watersheds Grant program is designed to encourage successful community-based approaches and management techniques to protect and restore the nation's watersheds. The goal is to support a new urban waters movement by building highly capable organizations that are self-sustaining and can carry out programs to protect human health and the environment. The urban waterways in many communities are compromised landscapes, impacted by various sources of pollution and often neglected and ignored. These capacity-building subgrants will provide local organizations, tribal and local governments with skills and techniques to protect their urban waterways and promote more vibrant, economically sustainable communities.
Wetlands Program Development Grants
WPDGs can continue to be used by recipients to build and refine any element of a comprehensive wetland program, priority will be given to funding projects that address the three priority areas identified by EPA: Developing a comprehensive monitoring and assessment program; improving the effectiveness of compensatory mitigation; and refining the protection of vulnerable wetlands and aquatic resources. States, Tribes, local governments (S/T/LGs), interstate associations, intertribal consortia, and national non-profit, non-governmental organizations are eligible to apply.
Five Star Restoration Program
The Five Star Restoration Program brings together students, conservation corps, other youth groups, citizen groups, corporations, landowners and government agencies to provide environmental education and training through projects that restore wetlands and streams. The program provides challenge grants, technical support and opportunities for information exchange to enable community-based restoration projects.
Great Lakes Restoration Initiative
GLRI funds address five urgent issues: cleaning up toxics and areas of concern; combating invasive species; promoting nearshore health by protecting watersheds from polluted run-off; restoring wetlands and other habitats; and tracking progress and working with strategic partners.
Click here for information on federal water quality funding sources beyond EPA's programs including funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the US Department of Interior, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, etc.
Section 319 (h) Nonpoint Source Pollution Control Financial Assistance Program
Section 319 funding is for projects focused on the Implementation of a Watershed Based Plan or TMDL Implementation Plan; Development of a Watershed Based Plan, TMDL or TMDL Implementation Plan; Best Management Practice (BMP) Implementation; Information and Outreach; Monitoring; Research. Eligible entities may be any organization that has legal status to accept funds from the state of Illinois, including; state and local governmental units, nonprofit organizations, citizen and environmental groups, individuals and businesses
Illinois Green Infrastructure Grant Program for Stormwater Management (IGIG)
IGIG grants are available to local units of government and other organizations to implement green infrastructure best management practices to control stormwater runoff for water quality protection in Illinois. Projects must be located within a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) or Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) area. Funds are limited to the implementation of projects to install best management practices (BMPs).
Wastewater & Drinking Water State Revolving Funds
The revolving loan funds program is available to fund a wide variety of water quality projects including all types of nonpoint source, watershed protection or restoration, and estuary management projects, as well as more traditional municipal wastewater treatment projects.
Illinois Clean Lakes Program
The Illinois Clean Lakes Program (ICLP) is a financial assistance grant program that supports lake owners' interest and commitment to long-term, comprehensive lake management. Through the ICLP, Illinois EPA provides technical and financial assistance primarily to governmental entities that manage publicly-owned lakes with extensive public access and use. Controlling sources of pollution affecting water quality, restoring lakes that have deteriorated in recreational and ecological quality, and protecting high quality lake resources are the primary objectives of the program.
Priority Lake and Watershed Implementation Program
The Priority Lake and Watershed Implementation Program (PLWIP) supports lake protection, restoration, and enhancement activities at "priority" lakes where causes and sources of problems are apparent, project sites are highly accessible, project size is relatively small, and local entities are in a position to quickly implement necessary treatments.
Small Systems Compliance Grant Program
The Small Systems Compliance Grant (SSCG) program is a new opportunity for small community water supplies (small systems) that are in noncompliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act and state drinking water requirements, to receive funding from the Illinois EPA to construct projects that will remedy system deficiencies and bring them back into compliance.
Urban and Community Forestry Assistance Grant Program
The purpose of the Urban and Community Forestry Assistance Grant Program is to provide financial assistance to local units of government for the development of local urban and community forestry programs. These activities must help to establish, manage, conserve and preserve the urban and community forests from inner city to associated public lands.
Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development Program and Land and Water Conservation Fund
The Open Space Lands Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) Program is a state-financed grant program that provides funding assistance to local government agencies for acquisition and/or development of land for public parks and open space. The federal Land & Water Conservation Fund program (known as both LWCF and LAWCON) is a similar program with similar objectives. Both are managed in Illinois by the Department of Natural Resources with concurrent application due dates, equal grant maximums and similar general rules.
Special Wildlife Funds Grant Program
Together these programs are designed to protect, acquire, enhance or manage wildlife habitat and to support limited research and educational programs to further advance this mission.
Partners for Conservation Ecosystems Program
Provides grants to Ecosystem Partnerships for projects that preserve and enhance the region's resources, while addressing local economic and recreational concerns.
Community Development Assistance Program
Communities may apply for grant funds to undertake projects that improve public infrastructure and eliminate conditions detrimental to health, safety and public welfare. The funding priority for the component is water, sanitary and storm sewer projects.
Illinois Coastal Management Program
Once approved by the federal government, this program will provide grants for communities along the Lake Michigan coastline to engage in a range of projects, from shoreline restoration to harborfront planning.
Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation
Through its Natural Areas Program, the Foundation supports nonprofit organizations and local governments in their efforts to protect and preserve important natural areas and wildlife habitat across Illinois. The primary focus of the Foundation's Natural Areas Program is land acquisition. The Foundation also provides grants to assist small and emerging not-for-profit organizations to expand their capacity for land acquisition and protection, as well as a limited number of grants to enable established groups to partner with each other to plan for strategic habitat acquisitions.
Illinois American Water, Environmental Grant Program
Established in 2005, the Environmental Grant Program offers funds for innovative, community-based environmental projects that improve, restore or protect the watersheds, surface water and/or groundwater supplies in local communities served by Illinois American Water.
Great Lakes Protection Fund
The Fund can support virtually any type of organization. The exact type of organization is far less important than the number and breadth of organizations on the project team. Non-profit organizations, individuals, units of government, and for-profit businesses are all eligible for support as long as they show that the proposed work has clear public benefit and that any related financial benefits will accrue to the public good. Government agencies are eligible for support if they show that Fund monies are not being used to replace public funds or support government mandates. The Fund seeks projects that lead to tangible improvements in the health of the Great Lakes ecosystem, promote the interdependence of healthy ecological and economic systems, and are innovative, creative, and venturesome.
Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola Foundation
The Coca-Cola Company and its philanthropic arm, The Coca-Cola Foundation, aim to make a greater impact around the world by being responsive to the citizenship needs of the communities where we live and work. Working with local community, governmental and nongovernmental organizations, they support projects most relevant to community needs. The programs, which also include customized local initiatives, are focused on those areas where we feel we can make a unique and sustainable difference.
Additionally, the following philanthropic organizations have all supported water-related initiatives in the past:
federal funding, local funding, local government, state funding, stormwater management, wastewater, water, water supply

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- I might not score (ultimately meaningless and often obvious) Yahoo! (YHOO)-related "scoops," but I reckon I've got a relatively strong handle on what matters to the company's future.
And, really, whether you're an investor, smart generalist observer or both, it does you zero good when a reporter hijacks internal memos as sport. It's fun to watch Re/Code's Kara Swisher troll Yahoo!, but there's little, if any, value in the fruits of her -- granted -- impressive labor. Reporting on what's going to happen a few hours before it happens tends not to matter much over the long haul.
Then there's the rest of us ...
We want to understand what might be going on at a company. And, at Yahoo!, there's so much more than what the media spends its time obsessing over.
Greatest hits that'll go down as one-hit wonders ranging from Yahoo! would suck if it were not for Alibaba to Yahoo! Mail blows to Hey! Yahoo!'s going to do original programming because ... cue regurgitated headline/talking point ... it wants to find the next "House of Cards" (!!)
All fodder and filler, but very little substance.
Here at TheStreet, I've been hot on the trail of a main Yahoo! focus before the media got around to realizing it was a main Yahoo! focus. And that's because most everybody else was obsessed with the aforementioned "story" lines.
The media piled into its echo chamber, took the easy way out and -- until Yahoo! explicitly called it to their attention this week -- pretty much ignored Yahoo! Screen. That's weak. Particularly because Yahoo! Screen stands a snowball's chance in Buffalo, New York of formidably challenging a(nother) Google (GOOG) property unsure of exactly what it is -- YouTube.
First the necessary background if you care to review or are just coming in on the story. Then, on Page Two, an introductory thought or three on what Yahoo! could do via Yahoo! Screen and why it's so powerful.
The first article where I predict Yahoo! will move aggressively into the largely untapped live concert streaming space -- Marissa Mayer's Biggest Game Changer Yet (December 9, 2013).
A follow-up where I discuss why/how Yahoo! can differentiate itself and do online video better than YouTube and Netflix (NFLX) -- Yahoo!, Not Netflix, Is the TV Industry Disruptor (December 16, 2013).
A deeper look at Yahoo! Screen -- Investors Should Focus on Yahoo! Screen, Not Mail (December 18, 2013).
Most recent on Yahoo!'s brilliant move into live concert streaming -- Marissa Mayer Just Made Her Best Move Yet As Yahoo! CEO (April 30, 2014).
That last link segues nicely into Page Two and how Yahoo! video -- to be led, at least from my perspective, by live concert streaming -- is only in its infancy and could become the Web's most dynamic streaming media portal.

Comments about Chauvet DJ 4Bar LED System:
I'm a blues/rock band and we needed to take our stage presence up a notch. We didn't have lights. Doing some research, we knew that regular par cans can be very hot and use A LOT of power. The LED option offered light weight, long use, no heat, and very low energy usage. The Chauvet 4bars are an excellent solution for those DJ's or bands that need a great set of lights. Easy to pack, carry, and setup. Each light head is easy to position. The included light stand is very sturdy. The 4bar has built in auto programs, or sound activation and DMX controller options. You can also link two sets together via 3pin DMX cable if you want or daisy chain them off a DMX controller like the Obey series from Chauvet. Also included is a handy foot switch allowing you to switch between color banks, auto programs, sound activation or blackout. The foot switch is a great option for a small group or DJ. A bigger operation may want to opt for an Obey lighting controller in order to setup scenes and chases.
Only small drawback; although plenty bright for DJ or bands, spreading them out too far will dimish brightness, so keep it close or buy more than two when you can.
We've been extremely happy with our 4bars - although a bit more expensive than a traditional par can setup, it's much smaller, easier to manage, carry, setup, and much lower in power consumption (so you're not going to blow the venue's circuit breaker!).
I highly recommend!
Comments about Chauvet DJ 4Bar LED System:
I haven't had a chance to use the lights in a show yet, but we have them set up at our bands rehearsal space and my initial impression is great. Light weight, easy to setup, seem to be well constructed. The compactness of the lights is a great feature. Connecting two light bars to a single controller was very easy and the lights look fantastic. They're not concert level bright, but for our small nightclub/bar use these will perfect.

Last week we took a look at how crafting can be a great form of therapy. Ready to learn another stay-healthy secret? Making crafts can be a great way to build your overall physical wellness! Get inspired by the health benefits of crafting and find out even more about how being a maker can keep you well.
If you're not yet a Craftsy member, begin your crafting adventure today by joining our online community of millions of makers.
This week: Crafting keeps me healthy
In the second installment of our four-part series "Better Lives with Crafting," we're taking a look at how crafting can keep your body in tip-top shape. Forget cardio and crunches, you can build fitness with activities like photography, gardening and quilting! So, go ahead, trade in your hand weights for knitting needles because creating supports a life of vitality and overall physical wellness in a similar way.
Here's a collection of incredible stories from our members who use crafts as a way to stay healthy:
"I have chronic pain due to back and hip issues. When I am involved with sewing, crafting or painting, it helps to manage the chronic pain. You just don't think about it! I become more involved in what I am creating instead of what I am feeling."
"My right wrist and thumb were damaged and I lost part of my left index finger. Knitting, crocheting and sewing help with the stiffness and mobility problems."
"I am hemiplegic and sewing and knitting are important regular training to ensure that I keep mobility in my hands. And it is pure fun!"
"I have rheumatoid arthritis and it is especially bad in my hands. Ever since I started making jewelry, it has helped my pain level, and my joints feel better."
"I have tried several times to quit smoking. In July 2012, I gave it another shot. The trick has been to keep busy, so I began crocheting and working puzzles. I have made a lot of blankets and worked a lot of puzzles since then…but I am still NOT smoking. And I am saving money. Yarn is a lot cheaper than cigarettes!"

News and gossip relating to Liverpool FC in the past 24 hours
A mass vigil in Liverpool has been held in memory of the 96 people who died in the Hillsborough disaster 23 years ago. The 96 names of the victims were read out aloud helped by Kenny Dalglish and Jamie Carragher whilst members of Liverpool's youth academy carried lanterns in memory of the dead. Over 10,000 people attended the services and it was described as a 'sombre' 'sea of football scarves'. The vigil came in reaction to the release of previously unknown documental factors relating to a cover-up over the cause of the crush and vindication of Liverpool fans in a 23-year fight for the truth.
The Mayor of London Boris Johnson is the latest to issue an apology, after 'lies' printed in a letter he wrote in The Spectator in 2004 about Hillsborough were highlighted.
Liverpool fans as a whole however have been quick to remind people that now the truth may be out justice is still not done and prosecutions should be chased for the people responsible for the tragedy.
Pepe Reina's agent has jumped to the aid of his client by reporting the keeper has little desire to leave the club. There has been speculation that his recent run of poor form was a direct reaction to his feelings about the running of the club and was ready to quit Anfield. However his agent, Manuel Garcia Quilon was quick to deny such rumours stating the Spaniard was simply suffering a dip in form and as soon as he recovered it then the speculation would end.
Liverpool FC have handed a contract to 16-year-old Turkish midfielder Emin Altunay. He won a football reality television show in his home country that was designed to see teenage players demonstrate their talents and as part of the show he got to face a Liverpool youth XI and shined enough to impress Liverpool youth team coaches who offered him a professional deal at the club where current Turkey international Nuri Sahin is currently playing on loan from Real Madrid.
Talksport are speculating that Liverpool could be in for Udinese's Brazilian defender Danilo, and offer an in depth look at the player.
Rafa Benitez has revealed some of the secrets and methods that helped him reign supreme over Europe during his six-year spell on Merseyside. During the Valencian's tenure at Anfield he lead them too four quarter-finals three semi-finals and two finals including victories in the San Siro, Nou Camp and the Bernabeu not to mention the famous game in Istanbul. The stories have been told in Benitez's memoirs Champions League Dreams which have been published and released this week.

WASHINGTON — A plan to slash more than $500 billion from future Medicare spending — one of the biggest sources of funding for President Barack Obama's proposed overhaul of the nation's health care system — would sharply reduce benefits for some senior citizens and could jeopardize access to care for millions of others, according to a government evaluation released Saturday.
The report, requested by House Republicans, found that Medicare cuts contained in the health package approved by the House on Nov. 7 are likely to prove so costly to hospitals and nursing homes that they could stop taking Medicare altogether.
Congress could intervene to avoid such an outcome, but "so doing would likely result in significantly smaller actual savings" than is currently projected, according to the analysis by the chief actuary for the agency that administers Medicare and Medicaid. That would wipe out a big chunk of the financing for the health care reform package, which is projected to cost $1.05 trillion over the next decade.
More generally, the report questions whether the country's network of doctors and hospitals would be able to cope with the effects of a reform package expected to add more than 30 million people to the ranks of the insured, many of them through Medicaid, the public health program for the poor.
In the face of greatly increased demand for services, providers are likely to charge higher fees or take patients with better-paying private insurance over Medicaid recipients, "exacerbating existing access problems" in that program, according to the report from Richard Foster of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Though the report does not attempt to quantify that impact, Foster writes: "It is reasonable to expect that a significant portion of the increased demand for Medicaid would not be realized."
The report offers the clearest and most authoritative assessment to date of the effect that Democratic health reform proposals would have on Medicare and Medicaid, the nation's largest public health programs. It analyzes the House bill, but the Senate is also expected to rely on hundreds of billions of dollars in Medicare cuts to finance the package that Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., hopes to take to the floor this week. Like the House, the Senate is expected to propose adding millions of people to Medicaid.
Democrats focused Saturday on the positive aspects of the report, noting that Foster concludes that overall national spending on health care would increase by a little more than 1 percent over the next decade, even though millions of additional people would gain insurance. Out-of-pocket spending would decline more than $200 billion by 2019, with the government picking up much of that. The Medicare savings, if they materialized, would extend the life of that program by five years, meaning it would not begin to require cash infusions until 2022. "The president has made it clear that health insurance reform will protect and strengthen Medicare," said White House spokeswoman Linda Douglass. "And he has also made clear that no guaranteed Medicare benefits will be cut."

Cast your minds back to a few weeks ago, where I gave my opinion on the 'underated and underused' talents within WWE.

Ever since Mohammed Ali Hamadei was arrested at Frankfurt airport last January after bottles of liquid explosive were found in his luggage, the West German government had been in a quandary. At first there was hope that the Lebanese terrorist suspect would be extradited to the U.S., where he and three others are wanted for the 1985 hijacking of a TWA jetliner from Athens to Beirut and the murder of a passenger, U.S. Navy Diver Robert Stethem. But when two West Germans were kidnaped in Beirut a few days after Hamadei's arrest, the government began temporizing. Last week, despite months of...

Northern Ireland's Michael Laverty missed out on a points finish at the British MotoGP at Silverstone on Sunday, which was won by world champion Marc Marquez.
PBM rider Laverty crossed the line in 17th position behind Leon Camier, finishing ahead of his team-mate, Broc Parkes, who came home in 22nd place.
Marquez endured a race-long battle with Movistar Yamaha's Jorge Lorenzo from start to finish before claiming victory.
The 21-year-old Spaniard battled back after a mistake on the brakes allowed Lorenzo through to lead in the closing stages, with Marquez making an aggressive pass at the Loop.
He pulled away to win by 0.7 seconds, with Valentino Rossi finishing third.
Marquez said: "When I got past him [Lorenzo] for the first time I expected to open up a small gap but I made a small mistake and then he came by, but the battle was nice and to win the race - I was remembering and thinking about last year and this time I was a bit better and I beat him."
The top six was completed by Dani Pedrosa, Andrea Dovizioso and Pol Espargaro, with Scott Redding the top British rider in 10th and Ducati's Cal Crutchlow 12th.
Bradley Smith's top-six chances were hit by a machine issue on the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 M1.
Wildcard rider Jeremy McWilliams finished 29th in the Moto2 race.

The temperatures are high and the tempers are starting to rise as well in the Weston house, a place full of sordid secrets, miserable memories and the kind of furniture even the thrift store wouldn't take. The dining room table is surrounded by mismatched chairs, there's a scratchy 1970s Eric Clapton album on the 1960s hi-fi, and thick brown shades have been taped over the windows to keep out the sunlight, which allows the Westons' bad feelings to grow like toxic mushrooms in the dark.
Sprawling, acidic and often poisonously funny, Tracy Letts' Pulitzer Prize-winning "August: Osage County" offers some idea of what "Days of Our Lives" might have been like if it had been written by Eugene O'Neill, with a little help from Charles Busch. The dreary Oklahoma home becomes a gathering place for three generations of dissatisfied, distrustful people, and each will face the stony glare and scathing tongue of the Weston's pill-popping, booze-swilling matriarch, Violet. "I'm just truth-telling!" Violet insists after one of her regularly scheduled outbursts. "Some people get antagonized by the truth."
When the truths about the Westons begin to pile up, many theatergoers may find themselves wishing their seats had seatbelts attached: "August" is a head-spinning, bone-rattling roller coaster ride disguised as a play.
Every jolt and shock comes through with maximum impact in the touring production, which repeats again Wednesday night at Wharton Center. Director Anna D. Shapiro has assembled a magnificent cast led by Estelle Parsons as the mad, maddening Violet; if things got any hotter on the stage, the sprinkler system would probably kick in.
When she's not tearing family members limb from limb, Violet is battling "mouth cancer" with an impressive assortment of drugs that her husband, Beverly (Jon DeVries), lists off in an arresting opening monologue: Valium, Vicodin, Percocet, Percodan, Dilaudid "and Xanax — for fun," he says, rolling the name of each medication around on his tongue as if it was a lemon drop.
But while the parade of pills may have cost Violet her equilibrium, they haven't clouded her vision of the world around her. "Nobody slips anything by me — I know what's what," she snaps, and it turns out she really is telling the truth. As the skeletons begin to tumble out of the dusty closets, Violet remains unfazed; she always knew where the bodies (and the secrets) were buried.
"My mouth burns from the chemotherapy," the woozy Violet complains, although she has no trouble breathing fire whenever she chooses to do so.
Beverly's abrupt disappearance brings the Weston sisters scurrying back to their childhood home, although you immediately sense there's no place they'd rather not be. Ivy (Angelica Torn) is a college librarian who's spent years chasing true love and looks worn-down by the hunt. Karen (Amy Warren) is an outwardly bubbly real estate agent — and recovering Scientologist — whose favorite subject is herself and who shows off her fianc, Steve (Laurence Lau), as if he was a prime piece of property that she'd managed to snag for a bargain price. Meanwhile, Barbara (Shannon Cochran), an academic who casually throws references to Carson McCullers into her conversation, is valiantly trying to pretend she's not estranged from her husband, Bill (Jeff Still), and her 14-year-old daughter, Jean (Emily Kinney), a movie buff who was named after troubled "Breathless" star Jean Seberg.
Violet's squawking sister, Mattie Fae (Libby George), is also on hand, along with her somewhat distant husband, Charlie (Paul Vincent O'Connor), and their well-meaning but awkward son, Little Charles (Steve Key). Wandering through the tension-filled rooms like a lost tourist is the lovely, dutiful Johnna (DeLanna Studi), a caregiver/cook/clean-up woman Beverly hired right before he vanished.
Even though the locusts outside are raising a racket, they can't hope to compete with the rumbles indoors. By the end of the evening, one character is dead and nearly everyone else can be counted among the walking wounded. Letts' scalding words and caustic confrontations are as electrifying as they are terrifying, which means "August" is one of those plays in which you frequently find yourself laughing out loud and immediately feeling guilty — or at least uncomfortable — about your reaction.
That's because Letts draws each character so vividly he or she might be a next-door neighbor or someone you ran into at a party. Even Beverly, who appears in only one scene, instantly establishes himself as a distinctive personality in a brief amount of time. The brilliance of Letts' script lies in how much he communicates about a person's backstory or his or her relationships with the people around them in the space of only a few words.
Any blank spaces are filled in beautifully by the actors. Cochran and Still create a troubling snapshot of a quickly deteriorating marriage in which the love hasn't quite completely died, and Kinney is splendid as the would-be worldly daughter who self-medicates and submerges herself in cinema to deal with the anguish around her. "This is a great room," she notes of Johnna's bedroom. "Very 'Night of the Hunter.'"
Torn and Key are equally effective as two of the more subdued souls in the house: Torn's slumped shoulders carry a lifetime of misgivings and broken dreams, while Key's crackling voice and barely contained manic energy conveys Little Charles' low self-esteem and his desperation to make a new life for himself.
Warren, cruising through her scenes with the dizzy, disarming charm reminiscent of the young Teri Garr, manages to be as funny as she is poignant, and Lau radiates slimy self-confidence and creepy charisma as her latest dreamboat.
Although diminutive in size, Parsons builds Violet into a formidable tower of power, wielding her every word like a switchblade and breaking spirits as easily as she smashes plates. Yes, Violet's steps may be unsteady, but she never seems to have any problem walking all over anyone who gets in her way.
"August: Osage County" repeats at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Wharton Center. Call (800) WHARTON for tickets.

House of the week: Camberwell
Fans of Tudor-style architecture will love this heritage-listed house, which is on the market for the first time since the original owner commissioned its design in 1933.
Because of its unusual arrow-shaped block, the property looks smaller from the street than its full 966 square metres. However, the strong lines of its mock-Tudor black beams and gable roof give it an imposing presence on busy Camberwell Road.
The two-storey, three-bedroom house sits in a traditional garden of camellias and roses, with visitors sheltered by a welcoming porch.
Inside, the entry way is charming – if a little dark – thanks to the rich, stained-wood panelling and high, black ceiling beams.
Through double doors, the entry opens to the front lounge room, which benefits from white walls and a small sunny alcove – with parquetry floors and floor-to-ceiling windows – that extends from the west side of the room to open it to the views and light offered by the front garden.
The small brick fireplace is functional and charming, topped by a dark-wood mantelpiece. There is also an old airconditioning unit and ducted gas heating.
Another set of double doors connects the lounge room with the adjacent dining room, which is large and has dark-wood shelves at picture-rail height and the gorgeous leadlight windows that are a feature throughout the house.
Another large room, used as a library, benefits from north-facing windows and is connected to a sunroom that looks out to the large backyard.
The kitchen is original, with faded vinyl floors and old-style cabinets. It has a window to a second sunroom that faces the backyard. This long room leads to a separate toilet and large laundry with trough, sink and shower.
Character continues up the timber stairs, where three rather basic bedrooms are found on the second level. New owners would probably replace the outdated built-in wardrobe in the light-filled front room, as well as that in the second bedroom. At four metres by 4.5 metres, the main bedroom is a good size and has an ornate fireplace, intricate ceiling mouldings, and a ceiling fan.
Green original tiles are a charming feature of the shared bathroom that also has a freestanding pedestal sink and an arch over the bath. While the toilet is accessed through the bathroom, it is separated from the sink and bath. The heat light in the bathroom appears to be the only nod to modernity on the second level.
An extensive back garden has established trees, including lemon, a shed tucked at the back, a large lawn, and a small paved patio. Adjoining the property is a single-car garage, with a carport off the driveway.
The bones of the property are sound and it is certainly a unique house with plenty of opportunities for the new owners to make their mark and gain a toehold in one of Melbourne's most expensive enclaves.

California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill (AB 2174) the last week of August that would allow technical assistance projects to be eligible as a category of funding under the Fertilizer Research and Education Program (FREP) of the California Department of Food and Agriculture.
FREP was established 20 years ago to address nitrate contamination from agricultural sources in groundwater. FREP is funded by an assessment on fertilizers. The program offers grants for research, education and now technical assistance projects. The idea is to promote more efficient use of fertilizer so as not to cause groundwater contamination.
Earlier this year, a report from the University of California was released indicating that agriculture was responsible for more than 95 percent of the nitrate groundwater contamination in the Tulare Lake Basin and Salinas Valley.
According to the report, the four-county Tulare Lake Basin and the Monterey County portion of the Salinas Valley were examined. About 2.6 million people in these regions rely on groundwater for drinking water. The study area includes four of the nation's five counties with the largest agricultural production. It represents about 40 percent of California's irrigated cropland (including 80 different crops) and more than half of California's dairy herd. Many communities in the area are among the poorest in California and have limited economic means or technical capacity to maintain safe drinking water given threats from nitrate and other contaminants.
Within the study area, human-generated nitrate sources to groundwater include
• Cropland (96 percent of total), where nitrogen applied to crops, but not removed by harvest, air emission, or runoff, is leached from the root zone to groundwater. Nitrogen intentionally or incidentally applied to cropland includes synthetic fertilizer (54 percent), animal manure (33 percent), irrigation source water (8 percent), atmospheric deposition (3 percent), and wastewater treatment and food processing facility effluent and associated solids (2 percent);
• Percolation of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and food processing (FP) wastes (1.5 percent of total);
• Leachate from septic system drainfields (1 percent of total);
• Urban parks, lawns, golf courses, and leaky sewer systems (less than 1 percent of total); and
• Recharge from animal corrals and manure storage lagoons (less than 1 percent of total);
• Downward migration of nitrate-contaminated water via wells (less than 1 percent of total).
The new technical assistance funding will help translate research findings into real-world assistance for growers so they can better address nutrient management issues. The approval of this bill will allow the University of California Cooperative Extension, local Resource Conservation Districts, nonprofits and others to apply for funding for projects that help growers develop nutrient management plans. In addition, the bill will help fund technical education for fertilizer users and research to improve nutrient management practices to help minimize the environmental impact of fertilizer use, including greenhouse gases and nitrates in the groundwater.
In light of the fact that the number of county-based UC Cooperative Extension farm advisors is at an all-time low, with many counties closing offices and eliminating positions, this bill comes at a critical time, according to the California Climate and Agriculture Network's analysis of AB 2174. State funding for technical assistance programs has been significantly reduced in recent years. This bill provides access to about $1 million of existing, underutilized funds collected under the FREP to specifically support research and technical education programs developed at California research institutions. The goals are to result in cost savings and reduce contamination of the state's watersheds that could be used for drinking water, according to the goals outlined in the bill.
The University of California report released this summer stressed the importance of reducing the impact of fertilizer in the groundwater. Funding for research into better ways to use fertilizer is critical for this state. How California deals with this challenge could be applicable to states in the Corn Belt that surround the Mississippi River, which is also under scrutiny for nitrate loads.

|This route is short and sweet, but it does pack a punch. 5.9+ may be a little overrated, but who cares, it's still m5. The one thing that is a little sketchy about this 25' problem is tooling the moss inside the hand crack. The feet are bomber the whole way. This year there is a little section about 10' to the right of the m5 that involves some technical difficuties(thin) and some long moves. I'd give it m4+. This crag is by far my favorite ice crag and am surprised I don't see more people there. Also, about 20' to the left is a great flow that hasn't been in for a few years that is this year. it involves 25' of tooling(approx. m5/6) to wi4 ice w/ a little bit of easy mixed. I'd love to try Strike Free Zone(wi5 m7+), but can't get some beta, I'd like to lead it, but safely. Any doers?

|Start is tricky and steep but very awesome, protect with large nut or fingers/off fingers size cam. Tie-off stubbies in thin ice and then clip a piton when angle mellows out, head right over a roof hooking in steep snow/loose rock to a tree belay. A big snow pack at the bottom might alleviate the seriousness of a fall.

Johannesburg - Joburg Social Development employees took to the streets on Wednesday to protest against alleged misconduct by senior management.
Labour union Nehawu led a march in the Joburg CBD, demanding the dismissal of acting director Phumo Themeli and head of department Solly Ndweni.
Chief director of corporate services, advocate Siphokazi Moleshe, accepted a memorandum from the protesters.
Screaming and dancing employees accused Themeli - who was not present - of being a sex pest in the office.
The employees held placards alleging sexual harassment and other serious accusations of a sexual nature.
One, who asked not to be named for fear of reprisals, told The Star an office cleaner and other traumatised women colleagues alleged that Themeli was abusing his position and was making inappropriate sexual advances against his colleagues, among other things.
The official said: "The department employed an investigator. He conducted his research but no feedback on the report was given to the staff."
Social Development staff members are accusing the department of condoning Themeli's behaviour by not taking action against him.
Themeli refused to comment, directing questions to head of communication Sello Mokoena.
Mokoena confirmed the department had employed an external investigator. The investigation had probed the rape accusation and the sexual harassment allegation, and absolved Themeli. "During the investigation, people did not come forward, which weakened the case. People would not pitch up for hearings."
Mokoena said they would ask employees to come out and support the process.
The Nehawu official said: "He is in a position of power, and female colleagues need to ask him for resources. When a new female employee asked for a phone he would first hit on her."
Nehawu regional chairman Lulamile Sibanda said employees would go on strike if the MEC did not respond to the demands within seven days.

Adam Levine Admits He Has No Idea How To Act, But He Thought He'd Star In A Movie Anyway
In case you missed it, Adam Levine is an actor now. He's starring in a new movie called Begin Again with Keira Knightley. I haven't seen the movie myself, but when Alexis calls him a "cardboard cutout of himself" in her review, I believe her. Because I've seen clips from the movie, and I've seen him "act" on American Horror Story. And also I've watched this new USA Today interview in which he himself admits he had no idea what he was doing when he took on the project.
That's right. Adam Levine admits he doesn't know how to act, but he still decided to star in a movie anyway. Forget about all those talented, hard-working actors out there desperate for a job who could have taken on the role instead. Or even the rich and famous actors who never have to work again but can still, you know, act. This was Adam Levine's time to not shine, and he hopes that he maybe got a little bit better at that whole "pretending to be another person" thing after this experience:
"The oddest thing about being an actor is I'm not an actor, so being one was surreal. It was literally as if I woke up one day and it was time to become an actor. It wasn't this lifelong passion, so I was a bit freaked out about it, and I think the way I responded to it was by just believing. The amount of self-belief I had to kind of inflict upon myself was huge because I didn't know what I was doing. I think that I know what I'm doing more now than I did when I started, so there was a point A of ground zero… Point A, now I'm at point B. So I'm that much more far along."
Usually the becoming a good actor part comes before you star in a motion picture, not after you've already turned in the shitty performance. There's a reason people roll their eyes when musicians decide to become actors. Sometimes they're actually talented on both fronts and take the job seriously. But otherwise they're just like, "Hey it might be cool to try to be an actor. Someone should make that happen." Meanwhile people who actually do see acting as "this lifelong passion" continue to get passed over for work so that singers who admittedly have no idea what they're doing can get butts in the seats.
But of course this is what we must expect from a guy who, in the same interview, raves about being able to get a table at a restaurant whenever he wants while other people have to wait months, simply because he's famous. When Adam Levine wants something, he expects to snap his fingers and have it handed to him. And because he's Adam Levine, that's exactly what happens, which just creates this vicious cycle of douchebaggery.

I'm almost 16 and I have a 40DD breast size. Do I need to wait to have a breast reduction?

Teen breast reduction: waiting necessary for teenagers?
Thank you for your question! I hope that these answers help in making your decision. You suffer from juvenile hypertrophy of the breasts, which is typically treated by breast reduction. It is not uncommon to have the symptoms that you describe such as neck/back/shoulder pain as well as infections/rashes and shoulder grooving, especially in teenagers once her breasts begin to fully develop. You can certainly wait or have the procedure done sooner - ultimately the decision will be up to you.
Once one begins to have the symptoms that you state above, consideration for a surgical procedure to ameliorate your symptoms, assist with self esteem, and allow you to get back to physical activities in your youth should be done. Given your symptoms, you would be an ideal candidate. You must first discuss with your parents and pediatrician, and then consulting with a plastic surgeon for evaluation and examination to assist you in deciding if this would be the right thing for you. Your surgeon will also go over what to expect as well as the risks and benefits of the procedure. Overall, your symptoms should be ameliorated almost immediately and hopefully give you more self confidence and an increased activity level. Your breasts may still continue to grow over the next several years, but it is certainly reasonable to consider this at this age with the issues that you are having. I hope that this helps! Good luck with your decision!

Teen Breast Reduction Surgery
Breast reduction surgery is one of the most predictably satisfying procedures performed today. Many women seeking breast reduction are doing it in order to alleviate back, neck and shoulder pain. Other reasons include improving one's self image and decreasing the amount of attention people give to large breasts.
Many young women have rapid breast growth occurring during their early years of puberty. When a 16-year-old develops 40DD breasts, life can become quite difficult. In addition to the discomfort associated with large breasts, many teenagers suffer emotionally. A breast reduction in this situation can be a life changing procedure. Although it is ideal to wait until all breast growth has stopped, exceptions can be made in unusual circumstances.

Breast Reduction for Teenagers
It's obvious that you have significant breast hypertrophy and I would be surprised if you don't have disabling symptoms. The only treatment for this condition is breast reduction surgery. I generally prefer to wait until the breasts have stopped growing before proceeding with breast reduction.
When patients are suffering severe symptoms, this approach may require modifications. Under these circumstances, it may be necessary to proceed with breast reduction as soon as possible because of severe symptoms. When this course is taken, patients may rarely require a secondary procedure because of continued breast growth.
I generally recommend consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Obviously your parents need to be involved in the process as well. Breast reduction has significant benefits, and patients who undergo the procedure at an early age experience the benefits over a lifetime.
There are downsides as well. These include the potential inability to breast feed, prolonged healing, decreased nipple sensation and scarring. In my experience, patients who undergo breast reduction at an early age not only experience relief of their symptoms, but also an improved quality of life.
Teen Breast Reduction: Waiting Necessary for Teenagers?
I think that a teenager with severe symptoms of macromastia should be treated with a breast reduction. There is a possibility of future revision surgery but the urgency to relieve symptoms is paramount in my mind. Going through your teenage years is difficult enough without having macromastia and associated symptoms and possible peer ridicule.

Waiting for Breast Reduction Often Best for Teens
I can almost feel the emotional distress you are experiencing by the nature of your question. In your particular case waiting just a few years until you are fully grown would be best as you will have a result that is more likely to be stable. If you continue to grow after surgery then you may have to have a separate all over again for the best results. You did not provide your height and weight, but often losing some weight but being in an optimal weight range may help many.It is not too early however to educate yourself by seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion for the near future.

Breast Reduction for Teenagers
Breast reduction surgery for teenagers is certainly possible and can be life changing. You need to understand that you will have permanent scars from it and will probably not be able to breastfeed. You also need to be a good candidate for the procedure (it sounds like you are if your breast size is stable) and mature enough to understand and make significant decisions. You should get your parents involved in the decision as they will have to sign any consents, and you will need to have a consultation with a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery for an individual evaluation. Your regular doctor should be able to help you with a referral. Good luck to you.
Breast reduction for teenager
It sounds like you are dealing with juvenile breast hypertrophy along with the physical and psychosocial consequences of this diagnosis. In other words, the breasts are too large for the frame causing both physical and psychological distress.
It sounds like you have done your homework and understand the potential risk and consultations associated with breast reduction surgery. You also understand that further surgery may be necessary in the future (for example if the breasts were to grow in size again).
On the other hand, breast reduction surgery is one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform and I think that for the right teenager (enough symptoms) it may be an excellent option (regardless of the age).
I would suggest an in-person consultation with a well-trained/experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. Best wishes.

Short Story by: Wicked Beautiful
Cotton Candy Fantasy
Closing my eyes, I imagine fluffy white clouds and the sun shining down on me as I lay in the grass, running my fingers through it.
I see me, eyes shining bright and a smile on my face.
I wish I could never wake up from that dream, I wish I never had to face reality.
But no.
No, I have to open my eyes to dark skies and my body crying out in pain.
He shows me no mercy, he never stops to let me catch a single breath.
I used to scream, I used to struggle, I used to try to escape him- he had always been too strong.
I remember the first time I tried to escape- I had him fooled, he thought I had learned my rightful place in his god forsaken mansion of hell.
But I hadn't.
Rain had been pouring and I had smashed my window, climbing out when my door burst open and he stood there, his face red and eyes blazing with rage.
There had been a fire in his eyes that I had never seen before- it made me freeze and stay where I was while he knocked me onto the ground, glaring down at me.
"I thought you had learned your place!" He had screamed, kicking me and slicing my skin with the glass from the window.
It was then that I wished I could just close my eyes and let him kill me.
I wish he had killed me instead of letting me live like he did.
Death would have been the perfect way to get away from this torture, this torture called reality.
After I was covered in bloody marks and bruises he had lifted me up gently, oh so, so gently.
He had placed me on my bed, stroking a strand of hair back from my face and smirking, whispering in my ear,
"You will never escape me, my darling."
I had tried to escape so many times after that, just to prove to him that I could, I could escape this hell.
But of course, I couldn't.
As I said before, he was always too strong.
A lot of the marks on my battered skin will never go away- the amount of times he hit me, kicked me, sliced my skin...it had all become permanent, like a permanent memory glued into my mind.
I don't try to escape any more, I know my place- I am inferior, he is superior.
That's just the way it is.
A few months after he was convinced that I wouldn't try to run away again he had given me a diary, this diary, to write in.
That was the last moment that he had been kind to me.
I can't take it, I can't.
My arm is aching as I write this, but I can't stop, not now.
This calms me, writing in this old book.
But it still doesn't ease the pain, the everlasting pain...
I heard the crack before I felt it.
My diary fell to the ground with a thump, and I could feel the twisted position my body was in.
"You stupid, worthless bitch!" He screamed, and I could smell the alcohol in his breath.
Two words I used to describe myself every day that I looked into the cracked old mirror in my bedroom.
He was holding me so tightly that I couldn't fall.
If he let go, I would hit the ground in less than a second.
Just like clockwork he let go of my body, letting me hit the ground as no sound escaped my lips.
"You're useless. You don't scream anymore, why don't you scream? Your pain is what keeps me living, why won't you feel any pain for me?!!" He roared, kicking me in the stomach over and over again.
I continued to stay silent.
If he wanted me to scream, I wouldn't make a sound.
He would kill me, and I could escape.
I could escape reality, I could go to a place where the clouds are fluffy and white, where people are smiling and the sun shines down on me.
If only I had been born in that world.
But no.
No, that's just a fantasy.
Just a stupid, silly, cotton candy fantasy.

It was snubbed by the Scottish Government during this summer's Olympic Games.
But the cream of British acting talent is flocking to the Scotland Office in London, as the base for Scotland's civil servants in England develops a new life as a film set.
Dover House has long been known as one of the most desirable addresses in Whitehall.
Loading article content
The Georgian mansion was notorious as the scene of Lord Byron's scandalous affair with Lady Caroline Lamb.
Both Tony Blair and Margaret Thatcher are rumoured to have considered decamping from Downing Street, during their terms as prime minister, to take advantage of its sweeping views.
In recent months the old building has been hosting film stars and camera crews.
A number of scenes for the James Bond thriller, Skyfall, were shot there and elsewhere in Whitehall.
The building was also chosen to house Daniel Craig's green room – for the 007 actor to use between takes.
The atrium of the building doubled as part of the Foreign Office in the recent Channel 4 political thriller Secret State, starring Gabriel Byrne as an under-pressure prime minister.
The office of Lord Wallace of Tankerness, the former Deputy First Minister of Scotland and now Advocate General, also featured in the series as the office of the fictional foreign secretary.
Dover House has been considered by the team behind the making of Philomena, starring Dame Judi Dench, the true story of a woman who spent 50 years searching for the son she was forced to give up for adoption.
However, not all the actors who have visited Dover House in recent months have been making a film in the building.
Love Actually star and anti-phone hacking campaigner Hugh Grant visited recently for a meeting with Lord Wallace about the Coalition Government's response to the Leveson report.
The Scotland Office does not actively promote the building as a film set.
It is understood the filming in Dover House came about following word of mouth from other Whitehall departments.
Coalition aides say the money the building earns from doubling as a film set helps the Scotland Office pay for its running costs – as part of the Conservative-Liberal Democrat Coalition's attempts to reduce spending.
Whitehall sources stress most of the filming takes place at the weekends and care is taken to ensure it does not interfere with the day-to-day running of the office.
However, a question mark now hangs over Dover House's starring role in any future Hollywood blockbusters, at least in the short term – Deputy Prime Minister and Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg is moving in next year while work is being done to his office in Downing Street.
Sources suggest that, while his presence will not necessarily preclude filming inside the building, it could raise questions regarding security.
The Coalition is keen to allow its buildings and estates to be used as film sets, within reason, believing it is a good deal for the taxpayer.
Earlier this year the Scottish Government drew criticism for rejecting Dover House as its home during the Olympics.
Despite being offered the base for free, it instead spent hundreds of thousands of pounds to set up a separate base a mile away.
The Scottish Government spent £25,000 a day hiring out the Army and Navy Club in Pall Mall for the duration of the Games.
It was renamed Scotland House and played host to sports stars and dignitaries.
But Scottish ministers angered opposition parties after they revealed the exercise was estimated to have cost £400,000.
Dover House was built in the 1750s and was once the home of Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, son of George III.
It became the Scottish Office in 1885. Its most notable feature is an entrance hall in the form of a rotunda.

Circuit Judge Jodi Raines Dennis ruled Thursday that the city of Pine Bluff was late in providing documents to a Little Rock attorney who had filed a Freedom of Information request, but there was confusion about the availability of those documents between the attorney and City Attorney Althea Hadden-Scott.
Circuit Judge Jodi Raines Dennis ruled Thursday that the city of Pine Bluff was late in providing documents to a Little Rock attorney who had filed a Freedom of Information request, but there was confusion about the availability of those documents between the attorney and City Attorney Althea Hadden-Scott.
The judge ordered the city to make all the documents available for inspection and copying by Friday, but also said in the order that attorney Lawrence Anthony Walker, who filed the FOIA request, was responsible for bringing copying equipment to Hadden-Scott's office "to avoid further delay in providing copies."
A request for fees to pay attorney Crystal Okoro, who represented Walker, was rejected by Dennis, who said in the order that Walker "failed to introduce into evidence facts sufficient for this Court to determine an amount or any prejudice resulting from the delay."
Walker, one of the attorneys representing the family of the late Monroe Isadore, filed the request for information on March 13, then filed a complaint against Police Chief Jeff Hubanks on March 21. Walker later amended the complaint to add Mayor Debe Hollingsworth after Hadden-Scott sought to have the complaint dismissed.
Hadden-Scott contended that Hollingsworth, as chief executive of the city, should have been served with the lawsuit, and she was served March 31.
During a bench trial Monday, Hubanks testified that he was not in the office when the request was filed March 13 and only learned of it March 17 when he returned to work. He said he started to gather the requested information at that time.
Both Hubanks and Hadden-Scott testified that the information Walker requested was available March 20, with Hubanks saying he thought the problem was that Walker and Hadden-Scott could not get together on a time for Walker to examine the requested material.
Walker earlier testified that Hadden-Scott told him she would be in her office all day March 20 but when he called, she was not in, and when he went to the office, she was not there.
Hadden-Scott contended that Walker did not make an appointment with her but just showed up and did not ask Hadden-Scott's secretary about the requested material.
Arkansas law requires that a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act be responded to within three working days.
"That wasn't done," Okoro said during the trial.
Although Walker contended in his lawsuit and through his attorney during the trial that Hubanks should be cited for violating the act, Hubanks' name was not mentioned in Dennis' court order Thursday.
In the FOIA request, Walker asked for any documents that mention Pine Bluff Police officers shooting people in the past five years, any documents that mention officers discharging their weapons in the past five years, any incidents of "friendly fire" involving officers in the past five years, as well as any documents, memorandums, emails or other correspondence that mentioned Isadore, 107, who was killed when he exchanged gunshots with police following a standoff with police in September 2013.

"Chicago" star Renee Zellweger may have snatched the Screen Actors Guild award for best actress, but oddsmakers are still putting their money on "The Hours" star Nicole Kidman for the Oscar win March 23, Australia's Associated Press reports.
Of course, Kidman, 35, is Australian — so naturally there may be some bias in the AAP report.
Still, AAP points out, all three New York Times film critics predicted on Sunday that the Oscar would end up in the hands of Kidman. And bookmakers from Las Vegas to London to Australia's Alice Springs are reportedly remaining faithful to Kidman — who remains the favorite with odds of about 4:7.
Zellweger, meanwhile, comes in second at 15:8; Julianne Moore ("Far From Heaven") is third, at 4:1; followed by Diane Lane ("Unfaithful"), 25:1, and, running a distant fifth, Salma Hayek ("Frida"), 33:1.
The SAG Awards, however, are often a strong indicator of how the Oscar vote will go (many SAG members are also Academy voters). Six of the last seven SAG best actress winners went on to win the Academy Award. Furthermore, Oscar voters have until March 18 to submit their final ballot, which means that Zellweger's win could become a factor.
In several quarters Kidman was a frontrunner to win the Oscar last year, for "Moulin Rouge." The Oscar, however, went to Halle Berry, for "Monster's Ball."
