NEW YORK (AP) -- San Francisco pitcher George Kontos has been suspended for three games by Major League Baseball, which said he intentionally threw a pitch at Pittsburgh's Andrew McCutchen, and Giants manager Bruce Bochy has been banned for one.
MLB senior vice president Joe Garagiola made the decision Wednesday, a day after Kontos was ejected from the Pirates' 8-2 win for hitting McCutchen with a pitch in the eighth inning.
A warning had been issued earlier in the game. Four batters were hit, including Pittsburgh's Pedro Alvarez by Tim Lincecum, and San Francisco's Gregor Blanco by Gerrit Cole and Marco Scutaro by Tony Watson.
Kontos was optioned Wednesday to Triple-A Fresno and would serve the suspension only when he is back in the major leagues. If he files an appeal, the penalty would be delayed until after a hearing and decision.
Bochy was penalized for what MLB said was Kontos's intentional actions. He was to serve the suspension Wednesday night.

$45,000 worth of tools reported stolen at Cabela's site
The Woodbury Cabela's construction site was burglarized last month where an estimated $45,000 worth of construction equipment was stolen, authorities said.
Woodbury Police responded to the burglary report Nov. 12 when five contractors reported a large amount of tools and construction equipment was taken.
Investigators executed a search warrant at a St. Paul residence three days later where one adult man was arrested, police said. Nearly all stolen items were recovered and returned to the contractors.

Not sure if this is possible with the CurlTalk app, but...
It would be nice if we could see people's signatures when using the app. I know sometimes I answer a question someone has asked and my answer could be improved if I knew the person's hair properties (which people often have in their signatures, but I can't see when I'm using the app).
That bothers me as well! I get so confused from the signatures on the phone and the ones on the website
Thanks, ladies. I'll share that with the team.
I agree! It would be nice to see siggys on the curl talk app. Also, it would be nice if the "like" button was available on the curl talk app. I'll be scrolling through a thread and see something I want to "like" and can't because it's not an option on my phone.
Though even when I go on via computer I can't see who liked what...
Sent from my DROID X2 using CurlTalk App with accidental obvious autocorrect errors throughout.
I agree with signatures and a like button!
I'm not sure, but can you start a thread on the CurlTalk app? Or am I just blind?

When Amelie was one week old my very good friend Laetitia came for a photoshoot, and she is so gifted she took the most amazing photos of my little princess, and here is one of my fav! I used the latest BG papers and a bit of punching and stamping. I don't know when my next layout will be soon I hope until then...Thank you for all your lovely comments!

Channing Tatum named sexiest man
Channing Tatum has been named the Sexiest Man Alive.
The actor famously showed off his impressive physique in this year's hit movie Magic Mike which helped him scoop the annual title awarded by People magazine.
The chiselled hunk admits he was shocked by the news.
"My first thought was, 'Y'all are messing with me,'" Tatum revealed to People.
"I told [my wife] Jenna [Dewan-Tatum] after we'd been in the bathtub washing our dogs because they'd gotten skunked. She was like, 'What?'"
The actor joked that Jenna has now accepted his title and enjoys teasing him about it.
"Yeah, she calls me [the Sexiest Man Alive] now," Tatum added with a smile.
The star has also scooped another coveted title for his work this year.
Tatum was named GQ's Movie Star of the Year as part of their December issue.
In the accompanying interview Channing revealed he got up to "meatheadish things" with Jamie Foxx on the set of their action movie White House Down.
The movie star worked out twice a day during filming and has joked that a special exercise area was created for him and Jamie to help release their pent up aggression on set.
"We have a trailer we go in and do meatheadish things," Channing joked to the US edition of GQ magazine. "[Today's work-out] was good, it was good. Deadlifted 425."
Tatum's all or nothing attitude to his keep fit routine is similar to how he approaches most things in his life.
As well as working a six-day week while shooting White House Down, Tatum allowed himself under a week to recover before starting his next project.
The 32-year-old shared why he chooses to keep such a busy filming schedule.
He explained his motivation comes from the career advice he was given when he was starting out by some of Hollywood's biggest stars.
"Big actors have told me to get it while the getting is good. Grind it," Tatum hinted.
"Ahhh, I'm not gonna drop names...You know, very successful, smart actors. And they were like: 'Grind it. If you love it, grind it.' I did. And a lot of people who didn't grind it, it's not that they're not in a good place, but I'm in a better place."
Tatum joins a long list of Hollywood heartthrobs who also have also received the "sexiest man" title from the magazine including Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Ryan Reynolds, George Clooney and Matt Damon.


text: BMI is around 29, so that's well overweight but stil not (quite) obese. /U. I have a big frame with a large amount of muscularity (though I am far less muscular that Arnold Schwarzenegger, The Rock, your average WWE wrestler, your average bodybuilder and the like). I was told by my doctors that because of my height, frame and muscularity, my normal weight is 185 pounds. At 200 pounds, I am 15 pounds overweight. Is 15 pounds overweight considered well overweight to you, UFN?

The atmosphere is starting to get tense at the PCMag offices. That can only mean thing: It's time for another Apple keynote. Our ground troops are flying out to the event as we speak, ready to live-blog the event tomorrow at 10 A.M. PST, 1 P.M. EST. In the meantime, we don't have much to go on beyond the standard litany of rumors. Fortunately, we've got rumors in spades.
Given that the timing of the event, which coincides with Apple's annual music announcement and the above fliers, seem not-so-subtly to confirm such focus, we think we've got a fairly good grasp on what the company will be discussing. After the jump, check out a roundup of guesses at what may be coming at us tomorrow, including a new Apple Tablet, The Beatles, camera-equipped iPods, and Steve Jobs himself. Oh, and if you think we've left something of the list, let us know.
Tablet/iPad: This one's been brewing for some time now: Throughout the past year, it's appeared in a number of different configurations, but most prominently as a touchscreen 10-inch tablet–ostensibly a giant iPod touch, a big entertainment device perfect for watching movies, surfing the Internet, and reading ebooks. Price guesses are being bandied about in the region of $500 to $700.
The rumors have been confirmed by a number of third-party overseas parts manufacturers in places like Taiwan, which anonymously let it be known it was supplying larger-than-iPhone touchscreens for Apple. A few have even hinted that a variety of sizes might be available, starting at 10-inches and going larger from there.
According to most sources (all of which are admittedly hazy at this point), the tablet isn't expected until next year, however; perhaps around the beginning of the year. Given Apple's tendency to make hardware available for purchase upon launch, it follows that we won't be seeing the iPad (or whatever it's called) this week.
Beatles Coming to iTunes: This is another one of those perennial favorites; the idea of EMI bringing the Beatles catalog to iTunes has existed for roughly as long as Apple has run a music service. The issues initially revolved around a legal challenge between Apple Computers and Apple Corp. The latter first filed a lawsuit against the former in 1978 over naming rights. In '81, Apple Computers paid Apple Corp. an undisclosed amount and agreed not to enter the music space.
Naturally, the nature of the agreement changed over the years–subtly, at first, with some music-centric innovations. In 2003, the company's musical ambitions were unquestionable with the launch of the iPod and iTunes in 2001. While things seemed to have settled down after a 2006 ruling in favor of Apple Computers, Beatles material has yet to be made available through the service (though all four band members have solo material in the store).
The date of the Apple event is significant to this rumor. First, Apple traditionally holds music events on Tuesdays–the day that new records are released. This week's event is being held on a Wednesday, 9/9/09: the same day the Beatles catalog is being reissued and the Liverpool quartet's version of Rock Band finally hits store shelves.
Related: Beatles members in attendance. Paul, Ringo, and assorted members of the extended Beatles family made appearances at Microsoft's E3 event earlier this year, in honor of Beatles Rock Band's impending release. Nothing says "mended fences" like a few high-profile handshakes and some air guitar poses.
iPods Get Cameras: Here's another rumor being backed up by some of those overseas parts manufacturers. Apple reportedly put in a big order for camera modules–an order too large for just iPhone parts. The cameras are rumored to be making their way into the latest version of the iPod touch and iPod nano. The rumors have also reportedly been confirmed by some leaked designs of camera-friendly iPod cases.
Interestingly, a related rumor circulating today has it that "bad parts" are causing a delay in the release of release of these units. No word on whether such a delay would keep Apple from mentioning them altogether during this week's event, in keeping with the company's policy of release products same day.
iTunes 9: A new version of iTunes? Sure, why not? Shiny new hardware deserves some new software, right? Word is that the latest version of the world's biggest music store is getting even more multimedia than before. Rumored this time out are Blu-ray support (the company's Macbook is seemingly one of the last holdouts in the PC industry) and integration with a number of popular services including Twitter, Facebook, and Last.fm.
Ringtones for iTunes: This one would seemingly be a brief mention, at best. After all, creating custom ringtones on the iPhone isn't exactly rocket science, and Apple isn't exactly keen to let you sync your iTunes with other handsets. That said, people may well welcome anything that makes their lives a little bit simpler–even if it means paying a little bit extra. And besides, reasonably priced ringtones could easily prove a big business for Apple, given prominent placement in the store. Apple has reportedly already struck deals with number of labels to include snippets in iTunes.
Death of the iPod Classic: Apple has perhaps somewhat uncharacteristically continued to squeeze as much life as possible out the iPod Classic–the gloomy name it attached to a slightly redesigned 5G iPod after the release of the touch. If capacities on the iPod touch continue to go up (and there's really no reason to expect that they won't), the Classic may soon be laid to rest, and likely with little fanfare.
A Touchscreen Nano: Apple is just downright enamored with the touchscreen, and in a perfect world, we'd no doubt see one on every Apple product on the market (save for the shuffle, of course). With a touchscreen and a camera, the nano is well on its way toward becoming the iPod Touch Nano.
Cocktail: It's always Apple against the world, isn't it? The company may report on a new music format, Cocktail, which it developed upon hearing of CMX, a similar format being introduced by Sony, Warner, Universal, and EMI. Bothl formats incorporate a number of extras, including artwork, linear notes, lyrics, and videos. One of Jobs's main arguments in favor of legal downloads is the fact that getting music from a source such as iTunes ensures things like song titles and album covers will be intact–a definite crap shoot with things like BitTorrent. Cocktail would make that pot all the sweeter.
iPhone OS 3.1: Currently in beta, the latest version of the iPhone OS features a number of new features, including new video APIs, speed improvements, and–gasp–MMS enable by default. Why not add it to the list of announcements?
The Return of Steve Jobs: This one seems like a given. Jobs hasn't appeared onstage at an Apple event since this time last year, when he delivered a winking, "reports of my death are greatly exaggerated" address. Sadly, reports of a prolonged medical leave weren't exaggerated. In January the company handed the reins to Tim Cook, the company's acting CEO for six months. And much to the disappointment of many in the media, Jobs didn't make a return at the last Apple event.
In recent months, however, the CEO has been spotting around the company's Cupertino headquarters. An on-stage return of the turtlenecked embodiment of the Apple philosophy would help the company's stock see a nice little jump.

The National Hockey League's Russian superstars did not fare well in the 2012 NHL Playoffs, but the Russians who exited the postseason early helped Team Russia capture the gold medal at the 2012 IIHF World Championships this weekend for the third time in the last five years.
Pavel Datsyuk and the Detroit Red Wings suffered an early exit at the hands of the Nashville Predators, while Evgeni Malkin's Pittsburgh Penguins were bounced in the first round by the Philadelphia Flyers. The Washington Capitals' talented Russian duo, Alexander Semin and Alexander Ovechkin, were also eliminated. They fell to the New York Rangers one round after knocking off the defending Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins.
While the four staples of the Russian roster combined to drop 15 NHL playoff games this spring, Russia's skill players lifted the team to a perfect 10-0 record at this year's World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. Russia and the Soviet Union now have a combined 23 gold medals at the event.
Malkin, who was shut down in Pittsburgh's opening-round series against Philadelphia, was the leading scorer at the World Championships with 19 points. He became the first player since Wayne Gretzky (1982) to lead the tournament in scoring and capture the NHL's Art Ross Trophy in the same season.
Russia's big guns all came out firing in the gold medal game against Slovakia. Semin netted a pair of goals, and Datsyuk and Malkin each found the back of the net. Ovechkin collected a pair of assists in the 6-2 victory. Zdeno Chara scored the only two goals for the Slovaks.
Team Russia will now have the top seed for the 2014 Winter Olympics, which will take place in Sochi, Russia.

THE threatening emails written by Paula Broadwell that led to the shock downfall of General David Petraeus have been described as "cat-fight stuff''.
Contrary to previous reports, the messages to Jill Kelley, the other woman in the cheating scandal, did not contain "jealous lover warnings'', the Daily Beast website is reporting.
According to a well-placed source, the emails contained only one reference to the now disgraced Petraeus and were directed more squarely at Ms Kelley.
"More like, 'Who do you think you are? You parade around the base - you need to take it down a notch,''' the source said.
Ms Kelley, who is a family friend of the Petraeus family, serves as an unpaid "social liaison'' at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida.
She showed the emails to a friend in the FBI who then contacted the cyber squad.
The scandal widened today with revelations that the federal agent who launched the investigation was barred from taking part in the case after allegedly sending shirtless photos of himself to Ms Kelley, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Supervisors reportedly removed the agent from the case over concerns that he was becoming obsessed with the case.
The stunning brunette was reportedly mystified as to what was behind the threatening emails, much less who sent them, the Daily Beast says.
"I don't know who this person is and I don't want to keep getting them,'' she reportedly told the FBI, as recounted by the source.
Even though the emails did not contain any overt threats, the FBI cyber squad opened an investigation after Kelley's FBI friend showed them the messages.
The squad opened the case, not expecting anything huge to develop, the Daily Beast says.
"They weren't seeing this as the crime of the century,'' the source said.
The cyber squad's investigation led them to Paula Broadwell, the 40-year-old married mother of two who had been conducting a secret affair with the decorated general.
David Petraeus is devastated over the affair, which has brought down his military and intelligence career, a close associate says.
"He regrets it on so many levels that I don't think anyone can really imagine how this has affected both his family and himself and, to some degree, the nation,'' friend and former Petraeus spokesman Steve Boylan told AFP.
Petraeus informed Holly, his wife of 38 years, before the news broke last week, though Boylan was unaware of exactly how long she may have known about the affair.
To say she is disappointed and furious would probably be a huge understatement at this point,'' he said.
The couple has two adult children, Stephen, who led an infantry platoon in Afghanistan, and Anne.
Boylan said the affair between Petraeus, 60, and Paula Broadwell began about two months after he assumed his post at the CIA in September 2011, and thus after he retired from the US Army.

Pioneer life in the Benton Co. WA area
Two Pioneers Take Trip/Mind Goes Back 73 Years
By BURTON 0. LUM
Tri-City Pioneer
Tri-City Herald, Sunday, 6 May 1962
Where vistas both far and high
Challenge the vision of the eye
Mountain peaks of snowy white
Lakes and rivers all in sight.
"Horse Heaven Hills" is incorrect.
A better name is should select.
Like "Heavenly Hills" or "Angel's View."
These, at least, would be more true.
The afternoon of April 25, 1962, Alfred C. Amon called and took me to Amon's Wells in the Horse Heaven Hills. It was one of this spring's most beautiful days.
Mr. Amon was a thorough guide, having spent in the past over eighteen years of his life developing this property. It is a show place indeed. The wheat fields are like green lawns carpeting the unfenced rolling hills. To me, a miracle had been wrought.
My thoughts went back 73 years when I first saw father's homestead at this very spot. The three-month school in Kennewick had run its course. The family now for five future years must live over half of each year upon this claim and make all improvements required by law before the deed to the homestead would be granted. A house and barn and fences must be built and a well dug. Father was lucky he struck a spring that furnished more water than any spring from Wallula to Prosser.
The Horse Heaven Pioneers hauled wagon tanks of water from its ever flowing source. Father held that water was the free gift of God and never charged for its supply. Father planted ample trees around the spring. Then it was known as Maple Springs. This wonderful supply of water added greatly to the value of the claim. Father took no chances that the claim would jumped and did more than the law required to protect his interests. He made final proof at the land office in Walla Walla and received his homestead patent to the claim.
In 1900, Father was appointed deputy sheriff of Yakima County and our entire family moved to North Yakima with the exception of my older brother Charley, who had taken up the adjoining 160 acres as a homestead and was proving up on it. Mr. Amon bought Father's homestead and a relinquishment from brother Charley.
The people of the Tri-City region should take a tour of this interesting country. The roads are quite good. You will be thrilled by the views that you will see. Learn the contour of the terrain. Learn the names of the hills and mountains from "Jump-Off Joe" to "Snipes" and "Rattlesnake." Do you know that a 500-acre fruit orchard plants a hundred acres more each year? That it has plans for future processing plants?Can't you give the fishing pole a rest?
Why not take the family for a quest?
Can't you turn the television off?
Must you always play your game of golf?
Your family, pop and mom, are growing fast
Enjoy their pleasures while it lasts
Soon from your hearth side they will flee
And your dad and mother all alone will be.
Count your blessing now each day
And maybe a grandchild will come to play.
Your life's interest will renew
With every childish thing they do.
Yes, Dear Lord, to us the children give
That faith and trust will forever live.
Truth and purity will always abound
Wherever youth and innocence is found.

Discarded Chicken Leads to Murder Arrest
Don't drop your fried yard bird.
According to a story published in The Dallas Morning News, Keith Edwards was arrested on Monday in connection with a fatal stabbing which occurred last week on a DART Green Line train.
Video captured the crime but it was the incredible sleuthing of a detective assigned to the case that lead police to the alleged attacker.
The un-named detective found fried chicken left on the train and "recognized this fried chicken as being from Henderson's Chicken due to the texture and coating." Police then interviewed the owner of Henderson's who recognized the man and an arrest was made shortly after.
Considering this detective is able to distinguish half eaten fried chicken at the scene of a crime from the scores of southern and soul food restaurants selling similar food all over Dallas I'd say that un-named detective has a pretty discerning palate.
Anyone know who the guy is? CoA is looking for more bloggers.

LONDON - Rebekah Brooks, Rupert Murdoch's former British newspaper boss, told a London court on Thursday she had sanctioned payments to public officials "half a dozen times" but denied approving the illegal sums for which she is on trial.
Brooks is accused of authorising almost 40 000 pounds ($66 000) in illegal payments from a reporter on Murdoch's Sun tabloid to a Ministry of Defence (MoD) official while she was editor of the paper.
She denies a charge of conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office, and other offences of conspiracy to hack phones and perverting the course of justice.
Furore over phone-hacking by journalists at the News of the World tabloid, which she also edited, led to the closure of the paper in 2011, rocked Murdoch's media empire and had repercussions across the British political establishment.
However, the offence relating to authorising illegal payments carries a potentially much lengthier jail sentence.
Giving evidence for a fifth day at London's Old Bailey court, Brooks said "there had to be an overwhelming public interest" to justify payments to officials and only in "very narrow circumstances".
Asked by her defence lawyer if she had ever sanctioned such payments, which is illegal, Brooks replied: "Yes, probably since I was deputy editor of the Sun, 1998 to 2009, a handful of occasions, half a dozen."
Brooks was asked about a series of stories she approved that the prosecution says relate to illegal payments by a Sun journalist, who cannot be named for legal reasons, to an MoD official.
Brooks said she had not known who the reporter's source was, nor that she was a public official. "He probably should have brought it to my attention, absolutely," she said.
The jury were also shown emails from the reporter asking Brooks to authorise payments to his "number one military contact", to which she replied: "Of course".
"Nothing would have flagged up to me that there was an issue with it," she told the court, adding she would not have been "policing" the reporter for any wrongdoing.
In one email, the reporter described a 4 500 pound ($7 500) payment for three of his stories as being "cheap at the price".
"I probably thought, yeah that's quite cheap at the price," she said.
Brooks said there was legitimate public interest in many of the stories and, although she had been unaware who the source was at the time, she hypothetically would have sanctioned payments for a few of them.
These related to reports of bullying of army recruits and a "war hero" quitting over the treatment of his troops.
"This was exactly the kind of campaign we were doing," she said. She told the jury there had been no reaction or complaint from the MoD about the stories or their origin, although the paper's campaigns had caused some political disquiet.
"We did get some complaints from one source, that was the (then) Prime Minister Gordon Brown, he didn't like it obviously, it wasn't good for him," said Brooks, who said Murdoch had given her the Sun job partly because of her zeal for campaigning.
Earlier Brooks, who edited Murdoch's News of the World and Sun tabloids from 2000 to 2009, told the court she had made lots of errors and regretted some stories and headlines.
"I personally made lots of mistakes", said the 45-year-old, who ran News Corp's British paper arm until 2011.
One case where she said she had "gone too far" was a personal attack on former Labour minister Clare Short over her opposition to daily pictures of topless models on page three of the Sun, a traditional feature of the paper since 1970.
The Sun, Britain's biggest-selling daily, had responded by publishing a doctored photograph of Short bare-breasted and accused her of being "jealous".
Brooks said this had been "cruel" and "harsh". "It was just too personal, it was just wrong," she added.
Her trial and that of six others continues.

I'm 5'9 140lbs and very active. I have nursed 3 children & am now a small A cup. I'm scheduled for surgery in 1 month & have chosen 425cc. Would this size still look natural on my frame?
Would 425cc still look natural on my frame?

Implant Selection Process
In order to make an accurate size recommendation, I would need to assess your chest wall and breast mound measurements and characteristics. Unfortunately, there is not a general rule of thumb or objective criteria to implant selection.
Your plastic surgeon will perform several measurements of your chest wall and breast anatomy and determine a range of implants that both fit your chest wall and reach your desired goals.
The next step is to try on this range of implants in the office with your doctor. The key to this success is showing your surgeon the body proportion you desire with a bra sizer and allowing your surgeon to guide you to the right implant. It will be much easier to communicate in implant cc's than cup size when determining the appropriate implant for you.
I wish you a safe recovery and fantastic result.

Breast implant sizing
The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size of implant and resulting cup size. This may have to do with several factors including: the amount of breast volume the patient starts with, the shape of the patient's chest wall (concave or convex), the type and model of breast implant selected (saiine/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree of filling of the cup with breast tissue, and the subjective differences in patients perceptions of cup size.
Much of the final "look" achieved after breast augmentation surgery depends on several factors: 1. The initial shape, size (volume of breast tissue), symmetry of the patient's breasts. In general, the better the preoperative breast appearance the more likely the breast augmentation "look" will be optimal. 2. The experience/skill level of the surgeon is important in determining the final outcome. For example, the accurate and gentle dissection of the breast implant pockets are critical in producing long-term well-placed breast implants. I personally think that these 2 factors are more important than any others, including type (saline or silicone) or model (low/moderate/high profile) of implant. 3. The type of implant used may determine the final outcome, especially if the patient does not have significant covering breast or adipose tissue. For example, some surgeons feel that silicone implants have a more natural look and feel than saline implants because silicone gel has a texture that is similar to breast tissue. Each patient differs in the amount of breast tissue that they have. If a patient has enough breast tissue to cover the implant, the final result will be similar when comparing saline implants versus silicone gel implants. If a patient has very low body fat and/or very little breast tissue, the silicone gel implants may provide a more "natural" result. On the other hand, saline implants have some advantages over silicone implants. Silicone implant ruptures are harder to detect. When saline implants rupture, they deflate and the results are seen almost immediately. When silicone implants rupture, the breast often looks and feels the same because the silicone gel may leak into surrounding areas of the breast without a visible difference. Patients may need an MRI to diagnose a silicone gel rupture. Saline implants are also less expensive than the silicone gel implants. Other differences involve how the breast implants are filled. Saline implants are filled after they're implanted, so saline implants require a smaller incision than prefilled silicone breast implants. On May 10, 2000, the FDA granted approval of saline-filled breast implants manufactured by Mentor Corporation and McGhan Medical. To date, all other manufacturers' saline-filled breast implants are considered investigational. As of 2006, the FDA has approved the use of silicone gel implants manufactured by the Mentor Corporation and Allergan (formerly McGhan) for breast augmentation surgery for patients over the age of 22. 4. The size and model of breast implant used may make a significant difference in the final outcome. Therefore, it is very important to communicate your size goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of "goal" pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as "natural" or "C cup" or "fake looking" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. I use intraoperative sizers and place the patient in the upright position to evaluate breast size. Use of these sizers also allow me to select the breast implant profile (low, moderate, moderate plus, high-profile) that would most likely achieve the patient's goals. The patient's goal pictures are hanging on the wall, and allow for direct comparison. I have found that this system is very helpful in improving the chances of achieving the patient's goals as consistently as possible. By the way, the most common regret after this operation, is "I wish I was bigger". I hope this helps.

Would 425cc still look natural on my frame?
A posted frontal photo would only help advise you in your decision. My guess is yes but not sure. Best of luck.

You question does not have enough details to give you a good answer. One of the best ways that I have found to educate patients and help them with size decisions is 3D imaging. In our office we use the e-Stetix system and women love it. It gives you an idea of what you would look like with different size implants. You can even see how you would look with different outfits. If you are still unsure, check with your doctor's office to see if they offer 3D imaging or check for others in your area that may offer imaging.

Breast implant size is based on your anatomy
Without photos it is difficult to sugest implant sizes. I assume that you came to the 425cc implant size with your plastic surgeon during the consultation. Is this a 425cc low, medium or high profile, since this determines the base diameter as well. If you want to look natural, and well proprtioned, then you need to choose an implant that is adequately covered by your own tissues without being overly stretched. Too large an implant will lead to sagging, tissue thinning and poor cosmetic outcome in the long run. I would go back to your surgeon and try on sizers, discuss your unanswered questions. You need to feel good, confident and need to trust your surgeon. If you have doubts, get another opinion. Good luck with your surgery.

Implant size
There are a range of implant sizes that are applicable for a patient. Considerations include the patients anatomy ,size ,weight and final goal.

Sizing Breast Implants
The choice of the best implant size for you is one that you should have as much control over as possible guided by input from your surgeon. It is difficult to give you feedback with only height and weight to go on. It is important to compare the dimensions of the implant to the dimensions of your chest wall and to make some assessment of your skin elasticity. It is also important to know what kind of look you would like to achieve. People of similar body types often want different outcomes. This is a big decision for you so if you are uncertain make sure to check again with your surgeon prior to the proceedure.

Natural breast implant choice
Without examining you, I can't say but your doctor should certainly be able to predict what you will get from that choice. It all depends on what you call "natural", what your starting point and base width are and what profile of 425 implant has been chosen. If you are not sure, go back to re-review with the doctor, not a nurse.
Breast Augmentation San Diego
The final look of your implants in your body depends on many factors, but the dimensions (width and projection) of the implant is much more important than the volume. Is the 425cc of your planned augmentation wide for your frame with low projection, or is it narrow with high projection? The best final approximation of what you will look like, in my opinion, is to try the implants on with a non padded bra. 5'9", 140 lbs doesn't explain what your chest looks like, but as tall as you are, with extra breast skin that sounds deflated after your pregnancies, if you want a robust chest, try high profile implants (since you're very active, probably not full profile), estimated volume 500-600 ml.

425cc seems appropriate
425 cc implants may be fine for you. You state that you are 5'9" and 140 lbs. You are a relatively tall woman. As a general rule, taller women have broader shoulders and a wider chest and usually can use a larger implant than a woman with a smaller frame. The most common implant sizes in my practice are between 325 and 375cc but most of the women I see are shorter than 5'9". There are other things to consider such as the amount of breast tissue you have and how tight you skin and muscles are.
During my consultations, I let women try on different sized implants. I think this helps the patient see what type of result to expect with different sizes.
Most importantly, discuss these things with you doctor and express your expectations. Make sure you see an experienced doctor who you can communicate with and who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

I'll bet a lot of people out there are wondering how someone like me got to where I am today. How did an average guy who never had a lot of formal education and, frankly, wasn't expected to go very far, wind up making it to one of the top sales positions at the second largest distributor of bathroom fixtures in all of Kentucky? Well, I'll tell you. It happened because a man had a dream, and he never lost sight of that dream. You see, ever since I was just 34, I've wanted to be a sales rep.
I can still remember when I first knew what I wanted to do with my life. It was the summer of 1989. I was working as a delivery driver for a furniture-outlet store. Whenever I got the chance, I'd sneak down to the showroom to watch the sales reps do their thing. Oh, how I loved to watch them work! What a thrill it was to see them fill out invoice sheets, take customers around the floor, and hand out business cards with their name printed right on them. My eyes were as big as saucers! All the while, I thought to myself, "That could be me someday."
There was a break room the delivery drivers shared with the sales reps. Lying around were all sorts of wondrous, exotic trade magazines—colorful, glossy magazines with names like Southern Small Business and Modern Plumbing & Wiring. They were filled with articles about the latest products, tips for closing the deal, and profiles of top-selling sales teams. I never dared pick the magazines up—I knew they were not there for me—but I'd edge just close enough to steal glances of the magazines' photos of top regional sales reps, plaques in their hands and their faces beaming with pride.
Honestly, I'm not even sure why I was so certain that a position in sales was what I wanted. Sometimes in life, you just know things deep down in your soul and you don't even question it.
Of course, at that point in my life, I wasn't in a position to chase my dream. After all, I was just 34, and I was still getting accustomed to being out of my parents' house for good. But over the years that followed, I never forgot. I always kept that little seed safely tucked away in the back of my mind. People would ask me what I did for a living, and I'd tell them, "I drive a truck, but someday I'm going to be a sales rep." I'll bet most of them just laughed at me behind my back. They probably snickered and dismissed me as a young fool. A rube. A dreamer with his head in the clouds.
True, I did spend a fair amount of time daydreaming. I'd fantasize about all the sales I'd one day close, the Top Receipts Of The Year plaque I'd have hanging on my wall at home, and the office with a door and a desk and a phone connected to several outside lines. But I knew it would all come true.
Eventually, I could wait no longer. The moment had come for me to make my fantasy a reality. I talked to some of the sales reps where I worked and asked questions. And I didn't shy away from the hard questions, because I needed to know exactly what I would be up against. What kind of hours does a sales rep work? Where would I buy polo shirts and a corduroy blazer? Who pays the printing costs for the business cards?
After gathering the necessary information, I drew up a plan. And in 1997, I put that plan into action. It wasn't easy, that's for sure. I worked a hell of a lot of overtime those last few weeks as a delivery driver, knowing full well I'd need extra money to get me through the payroll gap between my last paycheck at my old job and my first paycheck at my new one. Then, after years of serious thought and preparation, I finally hung up my furniture-moving back-saver belt and took the plunge.
I was a sales rep!
It didn't come easy at first. There were days when I felt like giving up. Days when I thought I'd never learn how to fill out a triplicate form or master the voice-mail system. It was tough, but what's important is that I stuck it out. And look at me now! I'm sitting on top of the world as a top sales rep for Frankfort Basin, Fixture & Tile.
From time to time, usually while I'm helping a customer or checking inventory, my mind wanders back to those days when I was 34. Back to when I was just a fresh-faced kid full of hopes, dreams, doubts, fears and uncertainties. If someone had told me back then where I would be today, I wouldn't have believed it. But I never let go of that dream. And because I didn't, today I can proudly say that I, Warren Boetz, am a sales professional.

Making Change: Emerging Real Estate Markets
Things are a little incongruous in the St. Clair Superior neighborhood, an area that runs roughly from East 30th to East 70th north of Chester Avenue. Commercial and residential buildings rub shoulders here, like a microcosm of the larger city. People usually have one of two reactions to this juxtaposition: who would want to live here? Or, how can I get a piece? The developers at Graystone Properties are part of that second group. They've acquired the 12+ acres that make up Tyler Industrial Park - that's two city blocks of industrial buildings between East 34th and 39th. The plan is to turn it into Tyler Village, a mixed use development for residential, retail and industrial use.
Paul Volpe: This is truly unique for Cleveland. It's unique as things go in the United States with urban land.
At a recent meeting with the project's stakeholders, Paul Volpe, principal at City Architects, presented the overall vision of Tyler Village. Volpe says the project represents a significant opportunity, and not just for the developers.
Paul Volpe: There's a much greater economic potential because you can leverage the real estate in different ways. You're not competing against yourself. And lastly, you have the ability to do things much bigger and generally better so the neighborhood reaps a bigger benefit.
The hope is that the success of such a truly mixed-use, large-scale development will attract smaller ventures that also maintain the core character of the neighborhood. St. Clair Superior Neighborhood Development Association Executive Director Diane Swander says developers are already investing: there's been more than $50 million of mostly private investment over the past four years and there's a potential $128 million more on the way.
Diane Swander: So the trick in a neighborhood where there's limited land is how do you smooth the edges between the industrial space. How do you create the connections, create new developments that honor the existing tradition, whether it's industrial or the residential community, and just integrate the housing products and the new residents into the neighborhood into those.
Although Tyler Village may be able to straddle those two worlds, it could still trip on some of the difficulties other ventures have faced. Mike Baird knows the quandary well. His company, Unicare, bought and renovated a building on East 40th a bit south of the future Tyler Village. It seemed ideal, Baird says.
Mike Baird: We identified that this was a 46,000 square foot warehouse. It would provide a lot of room for expansion. We liked the idea of the tall ceilings and windows all around. We thought it would be a nice work environment for our associates.
Unicare has done well at its current location - perhaps too well. Baird says the company will probably outgrow its current home by 2008. He says working with the city on expanding Unicare's current facility has been frustrating, at best.
Mike Baird: You would think that considering the circumstances, considering the current state of poverty in Cleveland and the need for jobs in Cleveland that there would be more attention paid to businesses, especially growing business. I think that's part of the reason you have a high vacancy rate. It just doesn't seem to be a priority.
Greg Huth, director of Economic Development for the city of Cleveland, says the city is aware of these issues, and that it's taken a while for the mayor's outreach initiatives to catch on. But he says those efforts are getting underway: most recently, the city's sent letters to businesses in the St. Clair Superior neighborhood to learn about their concerns.
Greg Huth: Whether he's a growing business or whether he's struggling or whether he has day-to-day issues with the city, he's got potholes out front or a dog in the lot next door. We want to get to what his issues are so we can get to him and make living and doing business in the city of Cleveland more profitable. And frankly, it helps us.
Residential developers aren't immune to the city's glacial pace, but they seem more willing to tolerate it. Developer Tony Asher with Graystone Properties says he first envisioned building residential units on the Tyler Village site 30 years ago. He says he's eager to get going now although there's a lot that has to happen first.
Tony Asher: The financing, historic tax credits, conservation easements, zoning... I dunno. I could go on - there's so many different things we have to get done. But we necessarily know that we need to work with everybody whether it's the city of Cleveland or state people the county people. Candidly, any other governmental agency you can throw at us, but we need to work with everybody and we think we can get that done.
Asher says once Graystone weathers the bureaucracy and Tyler Village becomes a reality, then more developers will line up who are willing to do the same. And perhaps, within a decade, St. Clair Superior will catch on as the place to invest in real estate. In Cleveland, Shula Neuman, 90.3.

Winter Cake Snow Capped Fondant?
Decorating By misschristinec Updated 29 Dec 2012 , 4:51pm by -K8memphis
AHi! I'm new here and relatively new to the fondant world. Could somine suggest a tool I should use to cut wavy snow caps into fondant like the picture in the link attached? Whenever i hand cut (pairing knife) traced letters into fondant my rounded edges tend to be very jaggedy. Looking for some help with a cake im making this weekend. Thanks!![URL]https://www.google.com/search?q=winter+birthday+cakes&hl=en&client=safari&tbo=u&tbm=isch&source=univ&sa=X&ei=VYPeUPepDc-90QGovIGAAQ&ved=0CCsQsAQ&biw=320&bih=416#i=10[/URL]
I think the ones in the pictures are piped--but a bunch of pictures come up--maybe narrow it down to one picture.
To get a smoothy edge on fondant cutouts smooth it with your finger or a ball tool.
Another idea is to lay the letter upside down onto the fondant, cut it out, then flip it over and smoothy that underneath edge. The underneath edge is sharper than the top edge where you applied all the pressure to get it cut through. The bottom edge stayed true to the table top.

A Year of Pies: A Seasonal Tour of Home Baked Pies
There is nothing that says traditional American dessert more than a home baked pie. I have wonderful memories from my childhood of both my mother and grandmother preparing home baked pies. Of course, I am completely pitiful at making my own traditional pie crust but that doesn't stop me from enjoying them at all. If you are interested in trying some new pie recipes or improving your pie making skills, there's a brand new cookbook available. A Year of Pies by Ashley English brings you the very best of seasonal, natural pie recipes as well as tarts, galettes, and sonkers.
A Year of Pies includes both sweet and savory choices at about a 75/25 ratio. There are a total of 60 different recipes and it works out to be about 15 recipes for each season. I love that A Year of Pies includes some of my favorite classic recipes like Lemon Lime Chess Pie and Turkey Shepherd's Pie. There are also some amazingly temping new recipes I'm looking forward to trying like the Asparagus and Dill Quiche and the Gingersnap Pumpkin Pie With Candied Pumpkin Seeds. For those of you that struggle with making pies, the basics section includes six pie crust recipes plus troubleshooting tips, instructions for creating decorative pie and tart crusts and even tips for selecting seasonal ingredients!
The recipes themselves are beautiful and very well presented. Almost every recipe included has at least one full color photograph. There is a detailed ingredients list and very easy to follow, step by step instructions. Since they are organized by season, it's very simple to choose a recipe that works best for what you have in your garden or what you can find at the farmer's market. Also included in some recipes are handy tips that will make the process easier. Each chapter (season) includes two guest recipes that have been submitted by top bloggers! It's so cool to see bloggers getting recognition for what they do. Since their blog links are included, you can check out more of their cool recipes as well.
I had such a hard time choosing which recipe to try and share with you all. In the end, I chose to make the Blackberry Sonker with Dip recipe because I had never heard of a sonker before and it looked delicious! This is definitely one of the most comprehensive pie cookbooks I have come across & certainly a delight to read & look at.

Half-Naked Geraldo Rivera – YES or NO?
This is the first time I've ever done "Yes or No", but I came across this picture floating around on social media yesterday, and I needed an opinion on it. Geraldo Rivera turned 70 on the 4th of July, and to celebrate, he posted a half nude picture of himself on Twitter. What do you think of it?


text: I received juvederm volbella a few days ago and at the time of the procedure I was alittle scared because my lips were so big when I left, I only wanted half but decided to do a full syringe since i have full lips as is. within the hours before I went to bed they became even more inflamed (which I knew was normal). In the morning they were still incredibly big but by 24 hours they have gone down and look normal enough that i don't feel embarrassed going out in public. However my concern is that now all the swelling has gone down or at least i hope it has because my lips are perfect this way but theres not a huge difference, i was hoping for more of a change and my lips are slightly bigger . im wondering if i should go for another half a syringe on the lower lip or if i will regret it after
