Braves lose 8-4 to streaking Dodgers

LOS ANGELES -- Tommy La Stella put together his second straight three-hit game and fourth since making his major league debut in late May. Freddie Freeman broke out of his slump, too. Their offense just wasn't enough to keep Atlanta's winning streak going.

 The Braves twice blew leads in losing 8-4 to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night, when their winning streak ended at three games.

 Freeman, who went 2 for 4, put Atlanta back in front 3-2 in the third with a two-run homer. He came in just 7 for 41 in 11 games since the All-Star break. La Stella tied his career high with three hits and reached base four times.

 Anthony Varvaro (3-3) took the loss, giving up three runs and four hits in one relief inning.

 Braves starter Aaron Harang faced the Dodgers for the first time since pitching for them in 2012. The right-hander yielded four runs and nine hits in six innings, struck out three and walked one after going 4-0 in his previous six outings.

 "They have veteran hitters all the way throughout that lineup and guys who can definitely make things happen and get key hits when they need to," Harang said.

 Matt Kemp hit a pair of two-run homers and Yasiel Puig had four hits with two runs scored in the Dodgers' fourth straight win.

 Puig came up a home run short of hitting for the cycle, lifting his team-leading average to .317 despite getting hit on the head by the ball while sliding head-first in the seventh. He struck out in his final at-bat.

 Los Angeles rallied from a two-run deficit to tie it 4-all on an RBI double by Adrian Gonzalez and a RBI single by Carl Crawford in the fifth.

 "I got Gonzalez 0-2 and tried to go into him above his hands, but I just didn't get it up high enough and he was able to get the bat on the ball," Harang said.

 That set the stage for outfielders Crawford and Kemp to put the Dodgers ahead in the seventh.

 Crawford had an RBI groundout to second base and Kemp followed with his second two-run shot over the center field fence for a 7-4 lead. Gonzalez doubled in another run in the eighth.

 Brandon League (2-2) got the victory in one inning of relief, allowing one hit and one walk. Kenley Jansen got four outs for his 31st save.

 Dodgers starter Josh Beckett struggled through another outing. The right-hander gave up four runs and nine hits in 4 1-3 innings, struck out two and walked one in dropping to 0-5 in his last six home starts.

 TRAINER'S ROOM

 Braves: Right fielder Jason Heyward was out of the lineup with lingering soreness in his lower back after straining himself while chasing a foul ball last Thursday. Rookie reliever Shae Simmons was placed on the 15-day DL with a sore shoulder. The team recalled reliever Juan Jaime from Triple-A Gwinnett to take the roster spot of Simmons, who accompanied the team for the start of an eight-game, three-city road trip.

 Dodgers: Left-hander Scott Elbert was reinstated from the 60-day DL and designated him for assignment. He made 15 rehab appearances, including two starts for Rookie-advanced Ogden, Class-A Rancho Cucamonga and Triple-A Albuquerque as he worked his way back from Tommy John surgery last year. Elbert was 0-1 with a 4.26 ERA for those minor league affiliates. He last pitched in the majors in August 2012.

 ON DECK

 Braves: Left-hander Alex Wood (7-8) starts for the Braves in the middle game of the series. He has pitched 2 2-3 scoreless innings in two career games against the Dodgers, allowing one hit and striking out three.

 Dodgers: Zack Greinke (12-5) starts for the Dodgers. The right-hander is 6-1 at home with a 2.73 ERA and holds opposing batters to a .222 batting average. He is 1-1 with a 3.50 ERA in three career starts against the Braves.

 FREEMAN'S SAVES

 Freeman prevented three throwing errors from shortstop Andrelton Simmons by scooping out low throws - one on a grounder by Dee Gordon with a runner at third to end the second inning, another by Beckett in the fourth, and another by Hanley Ramirez in the fifth just before Crawford's RBI double. Simmons has 10 errors this season.

 WHERE'S BARNEY?

 Newly acquired second baseman Darwin Barney could join the Dodgers by Wednesday. He was acquired in a trade with the Cubs on Monday for a player to be named. Barney will give the team depth off the bench. He won a Gold Glove in 2012, but was let go by Chicago after hitting .230 with 16 RBIs in 72 games this season.

Located on the First Nation Innu reservation on the southwest side of Les Escoumins. A very difficult campground to rate. Pros: Friendly staff, and many staff members speak English fairly well. Registration was efficient and professional. Facilities for use (pool, bike and hiking trails, laundry, bathrooms, overlook tower for whale watching, convenience store, gasoline station, landscaping) were outstanding in resort condo areas. Sewer hookup was in great position, although a bit high. Whale watching was excellent from nearby rocks; why pay for the tour boats? Belugas, dolphins, and minke whale were right up against the shoreline. Tidal pools in rocks, along with passing freighters on the Fleuve St. Laurent were fascinating. Firewood (bois) was brought around on a cart by a very friendly man. Cons: The campsites are not level, with many roots or simply uneven ground or paving. Electrical dropped to 109 volts with only the microwave running. No breaker box on the electrical. Water had a slight brownish tinge. No landscaping in campground (but elegant in all other parts of the resort). Garbage cans every 10 meters were tacky. Sites were fairly close, but not enough to cause any slideout problems. There was brief road noise along Rue Reserve when the ferry arrives or departs, but otherwise quiet. Internet was not available in campground, only at the laundry at the condos about 1 km away; you must drive there and have the password from the registration desk to access. Gate into campground is manually operated via key. You must open and close yourself. In rainy weather, it could be a pain. If rating were the entire resort, it would be a 9 or 10, but the quality of the campground (it seemed like a stepchild to the resort) lowers the rating to a 7, almost a 6. We expected a more elegant campground for the price and website promos. We would opt to stay somewhere on the coast on the next visit. - The Happy Traveler
Jul 2010 - $50.00
The camping area is very tight for motorhomes. Neighbors are very close. Wonderful playground. Short hike to the shore. I watched many whales from the campground's observation tower- Blue whale, many belugas. - Spencer65

This is a very large park. There is a specific area for large RVs with approximately 18 sites. These sites are full hookup and right on the St. Lawrence river. They are quite large. Bon Desir is right on the river. We watch whales go by right at our campsite! There is also a very large tent area - some right on the water as well. All grassy sites. - Nacraman

Our site was a gravel back-in that required levelling on the driver's side. Table and fire ring provided. Nice landscaping throughout the park. Unfortunately all those trees prevent any satellite reception. Best spots for that are the view sites near the playground. All utilities worked fine. No cable TV, but found 4 channels off the antenna all in French. Wi-Fi is weak and only works well enough when few users are on it. Site C laundry was very clean and cost was $1.50 each for wash or dry. Staff were always busy keeping the place clean and it showed. This park is on a hill side with a spectacular view of Tadoussac and the Saguenay/St Lawrence Rivers below. We would stay here again if in the area. - Onemoretrail
Jul 2010 - $55.00
Beautiful park. Nice view of the Fjord from a tall overlook. About 1 mile walk to town- long uphill to return. Shady sites. Great playground. Most staff speak English. Decent Wi-Fi in certain sites only. - Spencer65

You don't have to go so far to escape the cold of the UK, but you're pretty much guaranteed good weather any time of year. The average temperature is a fairly steady 25 Celsius (80 Fahrenheit) for more of the year – with it only being marginally colder in January than the Summer.
If you would prefer going in the dryer months, then the rainy season tails off in December, staying dry until May.

But in this case, Gartner came across as poorly informed. I think that this sort of strategy can only go on so long before people assume that Gartner is largely acting as paid shills, and Gartner looses a bunch of buisness. You have to understand how this process likely works. ICANN hires Gartner. Gartner asks Oracle what they think. Oracle directs the question to their PR agents, who then ask if anyone has any information. The PR agents who don't understand the technology are then in charge of repackaging the data up to suit Oracle's agenda. They probably then do some analysis on this data, maybe ask a few of Oracle's customers what they think, and call it a day. I think that this happens because the industry is far to vast for anyone to really know all of it well, especially as an industry analyst. So these firms get their data from the big, entrenched companies. However, I think that these firms will suffer huge reputation issues as the industry changes. >But that mindset is something that Oracle is skilled at exploiting, >and I'm not surprised they do it against PostgreSQL (even if their >behaviour sounds irrational to someone who really knows the >capabilities of the various systems). > > I am sure that they do.

Greek island wants to join Austria
- By Joshua Keating
Joshua Keating was an associate editor at Foreign Policy
German MPs provoked outrage in Greece in 2010 with a somewhat tongue-in-cheek suggestion that the coutnry shoudl consider selling off some of its islands to settle its accounts. But it appears that some residents of the island of Ikaria is looking to leave the country unilaterally:
Ikaria, a 250 square mile island, wants to leave Greece and join Austria which is 1242 miles away from the small Greek island, Italian daily "Libero" reported.
The roots behind such a bizarre decision dated back to 1912 in the midst of the Turkish-Italian War. The islanders made advantage of that historical moment and declared their independence from the Ottoman Empire. In the same year, they signed a 100 year agreement to join Greece which is set to expire this week.
Now as the crisis takes its toll on the islanders, they think to join another European state for a better future.
"To remain independent is difficult for us; we want to connect to another state. Of course, we won't ask Turkey; we prefer to join Austria," said an Ikaria resident according to the report.
The Greek embassy in Vienna was quick to quash the story:
Ikaria is an inseparable part of Greek national territory," the embassy statement said and further explained that Greece is not governed on a federal basis, but as a unitary state, clarifying that there is no agreement between the government and the Greek islands, which would be subject to expiration.
The Greek diplomats explained that the island celebrated 100th anniversary of the revolution and liberation from the Ottoman Empire, but that the Treaty of Lausanne, signed in 1923, constitutes the legal basis for annexation of the East Aegean islands by Greece.
Given the hubbub over Macedonia, it's a safe bet that Athens wouldn't look to kindly on Austria even jokingly claiming its islands. Icarians yearning to be Austrians is probably an impossible dream worthy of their namesake.

There is a lot of discussion on overpenetration lately, but i have yet to see this point brought up. when looking at how i would defend my home and where i would fight from i picked my bedroom door its at the end of the hall to my living room( see included picture). I use a winchester sxp defender with 2and3/4 unplated buckshot here is why, i want a powerfull load, that goes without saying, however i do live in a medium sized city and was concerned for my neighbors safty if i ever have to shoot. when firing from my chosen positon im firing away from my family, and if i do hit and there is overpenetration or i miss, my shot will have travel through my livingroom wall , my garage wich is full of toolboxes furniture and the outer garage wall, and finally my halfton truck.a fence and then my neighbors garage before it can harm them. using unplated lead shot i see a lot of hard objects to slow down deform and stop the shot should i miss or it goes through the bad guy. has any one else stumbled on to this solultion ? hopefully this post gives you some ideas, or inspires you to look at where your rounds will potenially go in a SD/HD situation. just curious as to what you guys think.

Why Getting a Fast Cashout Is Important
The principle of this is simple; you've won the money and you shouldn't be left hanging waiting for it to hit your bank account. It's not like a casino for Canucks is doing you a favour by offering quick casino payouts, you've earned the cash yourself by playing. The Internet casino you're playing at is a business and its product is the casino. If they're quick enough to take your hard earned C$ deposits, it's only fair that they should also give you the fastest payouts an online casino can offer, too.
Also, we hate to be a downer but in reality slow withdrawals can be a warning sign. Reputable casinos have the best online casino payouts speeds but the shady ones often don't payout very quickly and there are even horror stories of people never being able to withdraw money at all.
A slow cashout could be a sign that the casino online has run into financial problems themselves or they may even be battling against legislation. If you notice your online casino payouts in Canada are taking more than a few days, get off that casino as soon as you can and start playing somewhere else.
Besides the obvious worse case scenario that an online casino might be closing down without paying you your real cash winnings, the main thing to remember is this; if a casino values it's customers they'll deliver the fastest payouts.
How Your Banking Method Affects Cashout Times
If you want your winnings quickly you have to be smart, even at Canadian online casinos with the fastest payouts. The way you can be smart is by choosing carefully how to withdraw your money from an Internet casino. The fact is that the method you use at an online casino is what really decides how quick casino withdrawals will be for you.
For example, MasterCard and Visa are great for depositing at a Canuck online casino but when it comes to withdrawing your money, make sure you choose the bank transfer option and not the cheque. At an online casino the fastest cashouts can't really be had by using cheque, because these can take up to a whopping three weeks to arrive at your door. And even once the cheque arrives, you still have to take it to the bank and get it cleared, which is going to take another couple of days.
For the best online casino withdrawals speeds, eWallet payment methods are really reliable. Most decent casinos accepting Canadian players will let you withdraw using popular kinds of eWallet Internet banking methods like Skrill, Click2Pay and InstaDebit, as well as other market leading methods.
Why Fast Withdrawals are Important
If you're used to playing in a live casino, you're used to getting paid fast. When you win at Blackjack and suddenly find yourself sitting with a giant stack of black chips, converting them to one hundred dollar bills is as easy is walking over to the cashier. It all happens in minutes. But online? There's a process you need to go through. And even fast withdrawals are slow compared to what you'll find in the real world. That's why quick and easy payouts are so important. Casinos that work hard to get you your cash in hand quickly will make you feel comfortable and enjoy the experience as much as you would playing live.
Typical Cashout Times
Typical cashout times vary based on what payout method you've chosen for real money games. Some offer the fastest payouts, while others are much slower. So if your friend received a withdrawal by wire and you're still waiting for a cheque, keep in mind that yours might take a little longer. A reputable real money casino will post its typical payout speeds right on their website, so you won't sit around waiting longer than you should.
What to do if a Casino Doesn't Pay You Out
Not getting paid when you want is definitely frustrating, so when a casino doesn't deliver on its promises, that's troublesome. We recommend getting in touch with a casino through every possible channel. If you've contacted them by email, give them a shout by phone and let them know you're disappointed they didn't offer quick payouts. Live chat works too. If you're still getting the runaround, check to see who the casino is licensed with and file a report.
The Best Sites for Fast Cashouts
To recap, if you want to play at online casinos with the fastest payouts you'll need to make sure you pick one of our recommended casino online sites and then choose a speedy withdrawal method too. Follow the simple advice we gave you on this page and you'll enjoy the fastest online casino cashouts every time you play for C$.
We've compiled a list of those sites that fall short of our expectations and are known to be slower than snails when it comes to cashouts. Our expert reviewers did all the legwork, trying countless online gaming sites to determine which should be avoided. The blacklisted sites can be found here.

He has been gone almost as long as he was alive, and from a distance of four decades, Robert Kennedy is often seen as a player in a pageant: heir to a murdered President from America's most famous political family … a tumultuous presidential campaign in a tumultuous political year that ended on the floor of a hotel kitchen in Los Angeles.
But why, so many years later, are the memories still so sharp, the loss still so painful?
Photographer Bill Eppridge said, "I don't know of a single person who affected me the way he did."
Veteran CBS News correspondent Roger Mudd said, "There was about Robert Kennedy a perpetual sense of outrage. As a reporter, it was something to behold."
"He had the ability to speak out of his soul, out of his gut," said Congressman John Lewis, D-Ga., "and people believed in him."
… including a 24-year-old speechwriter fresh out of law school.
I make no pretense of neutrality; I worked on Kennedy's Senate staff and on his presidential campaign, and still regard him as the most remarkable political figure of my lifetime.
But the question you're entitled to ask of people who believe as I do is, why?
He came from a family of wealth and privilege with a reputation for toughness, even ruthlessness, that began with his campaign against labor boss Jimmy Hoffa in the late 1950s. It was a reputation he could not or would not explain.
"Why do people think you're ruthless?" Mudd asked Kennedy in an interview?
His response? "I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know."
"All we knew was that Bobby Kennedy was just a tough cookie," Mudd said. "The ruthless label got on him and couldn't come off, and never came off."
That's a view shared by one of the Kennedy's major adversaries. Monica Crowley worked for Richard Nixon during the last years of his life.
"He said to me one time that Bobby Kennedy was the most brilliant of the Kennedy boys and he was also the most ruthless," Crowley said. "And as somebody who was not unfamiliar with ruthlessness himself, that's something that also quite impressed Richard Nixon."
But after John F. Kennedy's death in 1963, as a war in Vietnam and racial unrest darkened the national mood, something seemed to change or shift in Robert Kennedy.
The freshman Senator from New York was becoming a very different kind of politician, looking at America with a radically original mind.
"Robert Kennedy always had an instinct for the outsider," said Peter Edelman, who was one of Kennedy's key Senate aides. "And it turned out that what he really cared about was people all over this world who don't have a fair shake."
"He saw the anguish," said Lewis, who was a young civil rights worker when he first met Kennedy. "He saw the predicament that black people, that poor people were faced with. And he made a commitment to do something about it, not just as the attorney general. Not just as Senator Kennedy for the presidency. But as a human being."
He went to the Mississippi Delta, where blacks were literally going hungry, to eastern Kentucky, where white people had been without jobs for years, and to the migrant labor camps of California.
And out of this came a sense that there was a fundamental failure of conventional liberal thinking.

What: The Pine Box Boys
Where: Six Rivers Brewery, 1300 Central Ave., McKinleyville
When: 8 p.m. Saturday
Admission: Free, 21+
Slasher-grassers The Pine Box Boys slay bloody tunes at Six Rivers Brewery Saturday
It's Alt-Cutry, not Country. It's Blackgrass, not Bluegrass... It's fun, bubbly, danceable and evil as hell. It's The Pine Box Boys out of San Francisco, and they've risen from their coffin-containers to play their murderous melodies for Six Rivers Brewery on Saturday night.
The massacre in McKinleyville will feature Rev. Lester T. Raww (vocals/guitar), Big Possum Carvidi (banjo/vocals), Colonel Timothy Leather (upright bass) and Uncle Dodds (drums/percussion). Imagine a group with Edgar Allen Poe writing lyrics and a band that sounds like Bela Fleck. Add a little intensity and criminal cackling with the fun-loving soundtrack of banjo and stand-up bass and you have The Pine Box Boys.
The 'Boys, who have played shows with Hank Williams III and Nina Hagen, are touring in support of their upcoming aberrant album "Tales from the Emancipated Head."
"This [album] is my tribute to horror films and horror comics and, thus, a tribute to my childhood," Raww said.
Raww has a voice with the raspy captivation of Hank III and the depth of his own demons. When asked if he had ever been in Humboldt County before he was quick to let his guilty conscious set in.
"Never!" he exclaimed. "Who said that we have? They're lying! I deny it to the last breath in my body! I was busy that night! I've got alibis!"
"The truth of the matter," Carvidi added, "is that we've been playing in Humboldt for about five years now and it was our first home outside of the Bay area."
How does a band with such beastly belligerence come to be? The Pine Box Boys are influenced by several groups. When it comes to their rockin' side they enjoy the sounds of Butthole Surfers, Slayer, Iron Maiden and, most of all, Frank Zappa. On the bluegrass side they look up to Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and Bill Monroe of Foggy Mountain Boys and the Blue Grass Boys.
"Murder fuses with any genre," said Raww, as the 'Boys explained why they decided to fuse bluegrass and horror.
"Lyrics to traditional bluegrass songs have always been wrought with horrific acts of violence," Carvidi said. "We figure if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
The new album based on horror comics and films, "Tales From the Emancipated Head," will be available at their CD release party at Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco on April 15. It'll be out everywhere in May. They'll be sure to play some new torture-tracks off of it. What is Raww's favorite horror film?
"My answer could change on any given day," he said. "But today I'd say... 'Return of the Living Dead.' When zombie Freddy says to Tina 'the one thing that can relieve this world of suffering: live brains!' and the Air Force nukes Knoxville....I get warm and fuzzy inside."
The 'Boys have recently played Slims and The Great American Music Hall at home in San Francisco, and they'll play a shocking show for Six Rivers Brewery in McKinleyville on Saturday night. How shocking will The Pine Box Boys show be, exactly?
"I don't know. I've never seen one. I'm usually busy those nights," Raww joked.
Show attendees on Saturday night will have to find out for themselves how wild these nights can get. In the meantime, they can check out what Lester calls The Pine Box Boy's "inappropriate behavior" at thepineboxboys.com and on Facebook, Twitter and Reverbnation.

Donor News: Felix Yip Demonstrates the Art of Giving Back

An old adage says a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single
step, but sometimes the start of something new begins several thousand miles from the starting line. Sometimes, too, the path to a career follows a circuitous route that rises from trying circumstances.
For Felix C. Yip, MD '80, MBA, the journey to becoming a doctor began nearly 8,000 miles from Wisconsin. His family history and childhood experiences ignited his interest in helping others.
When Yip's grandfather became ill during the Second Sino-Japanese War between the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan - which lasted from 1937 to 1941 - he developed an eye infection that led to his death.
That actuality profoundly affected Yip.
"My grandfather did not receive medical attention, and it was a contributing factor in my interest in medicine," he shares.
During Yip's youth, his family of 10 and several other families shared a 500-square-foot apartment in Hong Kong. His home was the balcony portion of the apartment.
His life in a poor neighborhood - where he saw, up close, his family's and neighbors' struggles - propelled him to make a difference with his life. Yip became interested in science and biology. The combination of his experiences helped shape his work ethic and led to his relentless efforts to sponsor promising areas of medical research.
Finding Inspiration in Madison
"Anyone can contribute to something they believe in. You don't have to be rich to give back."
- Felix Yip, MD '80, MBA
At age 17, Yip left his family in Hong Kong to pursue an undergraduate degree in molecular biology. He was drawn to the University of Wisconsin-Madison's widely recognized biochemistry program.
Many "firsts" greeted him: It was his first visit to the U.S. and the first time he had no family around for guidance. He was also the first in his family to attend college.
During his undergraduate years, Yip worked in the laboratory of Fritz Bach, MD, the first director of the Immunobiology Research Center, who became Yip's mentor.
Bach, who died in 2011, pioneered the use of bone marrow transplants. He developed a test that allowed doctors to find the relative who would be the closest match in an organ transplant, to avoid rejection.
"I was interested in renal transplant immunology and volunteered in Dr. Bach's laboratory. His PhD student, Paul Sondel, supervised me. These top-notch, diligent scientists greatly influenced me," Yip says.
Yip adds that both men inspired him in and outside of the classroom and laboratory. While there were many people who impacted his life, Bach and Sondel led by example, and that impressed Yip. Sondel, who now holds PhD and MD degrees, is the Reed and Carolee Walker Professor in Pediatric Oncology at the UW School of Medicine and Public Health (SMPH), heads the school's Division of Pediatric Oncology and is a member of the UW Carbone Cancer Center.
"Whether they were playing volleyball or working on complex scientific endeavors, their attitude was to be the best person they could be," says Yip. "They inspired me to always do my best - no matter what I was involved in. That has stayed with me."
Upon earning his bachelor's degree, with honors, in molecular biology, Yip entered the School of Medicine and Public Health, where he earned his medical degree.
He first considered specializing in obstetrics and gynecology because cervical cancer was not well treated then. However, his decision to enter urology was influenced by his wife, Mildred, whose father, brother and two uncles are physicians.
"She pointed out there was a severe lack of urologists," says Yip. "At the time, Hong Kong had only one urologist for its entire population of 3 million people."
Yip completed an internal medicine internship at University of Southern California (USC) Medical Center in Los Angeles. He then completed residencies in general surgery and urology and fellowships in urodynamics, female urology and pediatric urology at Kaiser Foundation Hospitals in Los Angeles.
Following a second pediatric urology fellowship at British Columbia Children's Hospital in Vancouver, Canada, he served on the faculty of Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, California, and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he earned the 1991 Most Valued Clinical Faculty award.
Today, Yip is a board-certified urologist, chief of surgery at Garfield Medical Center and Pacific Alliance Medical Center, and a clinical professor of urology at the Keck School of Medicine at USC.
Visionary Donors
He and his wife are visionary donors whose impact on American philanthropy has been striking. For more than 20 years, their generous gifts have played pivotal roles in helping diagnose and treat diseases and enabling scholars to pursue medical education and research. They are philanthropic supporters of UCLA, where they have established endowed chair positions.
Recognizing the need for basic research and training to eradicate diseases, they have provided many sponsorships where they felt it would help further the research mission.
"Mildred and I enjoy funding scientific programs that ultimately may make a difference in people's lives," Yip says. "We look at it this way: You could use your money to buy an expensive painting, and it would undoubtedly give you pleasure. But you could also choose a different path and support work that enriches the lives of many people. That's what we really enjoy doing."
He also points out, "Anyone can contribute to something they believe in. You don't have to be rich to give back."
One of the Yips' visionary funding endeavors involved the fight against cancer. They contributed $1 million, which was a major infusion for the creation of the UCLA Yip Center for Oral/Head and Neck Oncology Research in the School of Dentistry.
He proudly notes, "Since then, the center was awarded $5 million from the National Institutes of Health, with the goal of UCLA being the premier center for head, neck and oral oncology research in the U.S."
In conjunction with his 30th School of Medicine and Public Health class anniversary in 2010, Yip returned to Madison.
"It was the first time I had been back since graduation," he says. "As a student, I often walked between the Memorial Union and Helen C. White Library and remember it as a beautiful setting overlooking the water. Today, it's as beautiful as ever!"
Soon after that reunion, Yip established the Class of 1980 Great People Scholarship Fund, with a gift of $100,000. He challenged his classmates to raise $1 million for the scholarship and promised to contribute another $100,000 as a matching donation.
"I feel this is the least I can do to thank the people of Wisconsin who helped me during my seven years in Madison and Black River Falls, Wisconsin," says Yip, who adds that he hopes the Class of 1980 sets an example for other classes to help advance the mission of the school by raising funds.
"It is remarkable to see the generosity of alumni and classmates like Dr. Yip and his wife. We are so inspired by his gift," says Pat McBride, MD '80, MPH, the SMPH associate dean for students and president of the Wisconsin Medical Alumni Association (WMAA).
He adds, "The Class of 1980 is very generous and supportive of our school. We've often received the WMAA Brown Derby Award. We have started scholarships and awards and encourage other classes to do the same."
Philanthropy Without Borders
Yip has come a long way from his youthful longing to make a difference to his February 2013 appointment to the Medical Board of California by Governor Jerry Brown. Yip is one of seven California physicians on the board, which is charged with licensing and disciplining medical doctors. The state has about 120,000 licensed physicians.
Yip maintains memberships in several local and national professional organizations.
Almost 12 years ago, serendipity played a part in Yip's life when he was listening to an Asian community radio program.
"I heard about the high numbers of Asian people born with cleft palates. One in 600 live births in China is born with a craniofacial defect," he says. "In the past, these patients grew up as outcasts of society, unable to live a normal life. This is no longer the case."
Yip's interest in craniofacial defects led to his sponsorship of the Craniofacial Scholarship Program, UCLA School of Dentistry and Shanghai (China) First Hospital.
He points out, "The scholarship brought over a number of dentists, plastic surgeons, ENTs, surgeons and others to UCLA for training to build multispecialty craniofacial clinics in different hospitals in China."
The idea was to help many centers of excellence at schools in various parts of the country, so they can further train doctors.
"A success story involved two scholars who were able to obtain funding of 10 million RMB (Chinese Yuan) to build clinics in Southern China to care for patients with cleft palates," Yip shares.
As fate would have it, the Yips' grandson, now 3 years old, was born with a cleft palate, years after Yip got involved with a scholarship to train doctors about the defect.
Family remains the core of Yip's life. His daughter Lea, who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, is the mother of Yip's grandson.
The Yips' oldest son, Kyle, started college at age 13, younger than Yip had done. Kyle earned bachelor and master of science and doctor of dental surgery degrees from UCLA. In 2013, he earned his MD degree from USC during his maxilofacial oral surgery residency.
Their youngest son, Wesley, earned his undergraduate degree at Columbia University. He is a first-year medical student at USC and is interested in urology.
Winnie Yip, PhD, Yip's sister, also has a project being supported by Yip and his wife. Winnie Yip is a professor of health policy and economics at Oxford University in England. She and William Hsiao, PhD, of Harvard University, Boston, have collaborated on a number of international health studies.
"We supported her large-scale health care reform study in Quizuo, China," says Yip.
When asked what interests him the most, Yip quickly responds, "My passion is medicine. But there's only so much surgery I can do, so I thoroughly enjoy being able to help others train to do work that is needed."
Still, he's never far from work, and most Sundays, he can be found doing surgery.
Starting out with nothing more than a keen interest in learning when he arrived at UW-Madison, with the passing of each year, Yip's enthusiasm for his work and dedication to serving others continues to grow.

Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- If we want Friday's rally to continue, we need new news out of China, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers as he laid out his game plan for next week's trading. Cramer said the rally was all about money managers covering their shorts ahead of a possible Chinese stimulus plan and if one arrives on Monday, the markets will be off to the races. That's why on Monday Cramer will be watching Citigroup ( C), a bank that he doesn't like as much as some domestic names. But if China can jump-start the rest of the world's economies, Citigroup might become more attractive. Tuesday brings earnings from Johnson & Johnson ( JNJ), Coca-Cola ( KO) and Intel ( INTC). Cramer said he hopes to hear the phrase "unlock value" from J&J, but expects rough earnings from Coke between a strengthening dollar and a shortage of corn. Intel's earnings will also be tough, but if the stock manages to hold its ground Cramer said it might be time to buy into all of tech. For Wednesday, Bank of America ( BAC), US Bancorp ( USB)m Honeywell ( HON) and Yum Brands ( YUM) will be reporting. Cramer said Bank of America will likely be bad and US Bancorp good, but he wants to hear about aerospace from Honeywell before opining. Cramer said that it's time to sell Yum Brands ahead of earnings given the weakness in China and rising grain prices. Then on Thursday, Verizon ( VZ) and Google ( GOOG) take the stage. Cramer said that Verizon remains a favorite but Google will struggle with a huge business in Europe and nothing in China. Finally, on Friday, General Electric ( GE) reports. Cramer said he wants to hear good things from GE's financial services division and hopes strength there can offset the company's alternative energy business.

Spherix [MELB - Catacomb/Citrus/PRSPCT/Shadybrain/TAM]
Spherix aka Josh Lamaro began writing drum and bass around 2000, drawing on influences such as Konflict, Ed Rush and Optical's 'Wormhole' and 'The Creeps' albums and Stakka and Skynet. His direction has always been on the deeper side of techstep drum and bass, as displayed in his first release 'Clarity' on long time influence Dissident's TAM (Total Advance Music) imprint.
In late 2005, Spherix joined long time Canadian collaboration buddy Bantom, along with Andyslim and Kace to form the international production team Catacomb. A trip to Canada in March 2006 saw the now geographically unified Catacomb produce such tunes as 'The Lost Boys' (Citrus), 'Time Will Crawl' (feat. Mechanic - Microb), 'Trashmouth' (PRSPCT) and the internationally battered remix of Misanthrop's 'Strange Planet' (Shadybrain Vinyl).
Spherix is also one half of another international duo, Lotus, with Robot Death Squad's Signal, which focuses more on the smoother tech funk side of things, their first tune 'Message Bank' receiving international attention from the likes of Aqua Tek, Tenebra and Mayhem.

10" Round strawberry cake iced with an almost all butter chocolate buttercream. The white dots on the side are individually piped white chocolate kisses. The top is finished by a crown of hand dipped strawberry tuxedos. Not sure how well the intent comes through but the overall feel for the cake was suposed to be kinda vintage, ya know pin dot fabric and simple lines.

Episode #14,924----Rick strikes out first with Mel, then Beth in the forgiveness department. It only gets worse when Charles informs him he's fired – he seriously breached ethics when he misidentified Phillips body. Meanwhile, Mel, already in a bad mood, moves on to Jonathan and demands he tell her what is really going on between him and Ashlee if he expects her to help him get out of jail (and back into Outskirts; Doris had the bar shut down). Later, Mel and Rick pretend that everything is fine in front of Leah, but no one is buying it. Especially when Mel explodes and orders Rick to take some responsibility for Ross' death. Leah defends her dad but everyone ends up saying things they don't mean.
Ava pretends not to care that Coop was out all night taking care of Lizzie, while Buzz pretends not to care that Frank is dating Olivia. Later, Ava tells Coop she's moving out. But, first she shows him what she's turned her room into – a nursery, so Coop can prove to Alan's lawyers he'd make a good dad. Meanwhile, Lizzie asks God for a sign that she's doing the right thing lying that Coop is her baby's father. She gets a sign – a face to face with Tammy and Jonathan. Lizzie goes to see Beth and they worry about Phillip. Beth tosses Alan out of her room.

I had a extended tummy tuck with liposcution of the flanks 4 weeks ago. My doctor said to wear it for 6 weeks then I can go with male Spanx. My question is, will the Under Armour brand compression top do the same job as the male Spanx compression top?
Under Armour or Male Spanx After Male Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers 9
Under Armour or Male Spanx After Male Tummy Tuck?
I would suggest either brand is fine. The brand is not as important as the amount of compression. Your compression garment should be tight, but it should not be so tight that you cannot breathe or lose circulation to your legs. However, your garments should be tight enough that when you try to pinch the garment, it does not come off your body. This means you cannot pinch the garment away from your body. I believe after liposuction, the longer your compression garment is worn, the better your results. Most plastic surgeons believe compression is also very important for your final scar results. Congratulations on your tummy tuck. Sincerely Dr. Katzen

Wearing Compression Garments after 6 Weeks
Wearing compression garments after 6 weeks may not have any real effect. If the garments fit appropriately, it probably does not matter. Kenneth Hughes, MD male tummy tuck Los Angeles, CA
Compression garment post tummy tuck
I generally advocate that my tummy tuck patients wear compression garments for 6 weeks after a tummy tuck. After 6 weeks the I do not advocate routine use of a compression garment.

Compression Garment for After Tummy Tuck
Yes, you can choose any brand compression garment. Spanx and UnderArmor are both great brands. The key is to fine a garment that fits snug but not too uncomfortable. Also, the seams of the garment should not be too thick or they may cause temporary indented lines from extra compression at the area of the seam. You should also get a garment that extends below the area of surgery and above the area of surgery so that it will cover the entire area that was treated.
Good Luck.

I am brand agnostic. Regardless of your choice, be aware of how your garment fits and try to duplicate it when time is right. Any doubts, bring to your ps for fitting.
Compression garments for male body contouring procedures
I would stick to your surgeon's recommendations. Peronsally, I prefer the Rainey brand of compression garments for my body contouring patients. They key is to wear the garment as much as possible.

Four weeks after male tummy tuck, you don't need compression garments.

WWE Over the Limit: What's Next for Michael Cole After His Loss to Jerry Lawler?May 23, 2011
After what seems like the longest angle in WWE history, Jerry "the King" Lawler defeated Michael Cole at Over The Limit, retaining his Hall of Fame ring, and introducing the best moment of the night: when Bret Hart sauntered out and put Cole in the sharpshooter, forcing the commentator to kiss Lawler's feet.
So that's the end of the angle, right?
A friend of mine morosely commented: "Cole/Lawler is the feud that will never die. It's a best-of-infinity series, with the decider at Wrestlemania forever."
But judging by the total lack of crowd reaction to the entire segment last night—they perked up momentarily when the referee tore up Cole's doctor's note, and again when the Hitman appeared—, I suspect the WWE have realised this has run its course.
So what next for Cole? He certainly can't go back to commentating alongside Lawler; having spent the best part of the year talking about himself rather than the action, I can't see him returning to the mic either.
With him retired from in-ring competition, there are only two jobs he can possibly take.
First, the manager seems to be in vogue, with Michael Hayes emerging on Superstars last week. Cole could certainly manage a heel stable; it's fundamentally what he's been doing with Jack Swagger anyway.
Or second, he could take the role of the Raw general manager. The creative team hasn't given a clue who the anonymous Raw GM is or ever was. Let him or her resign off-screen, and Cole can step into the power vacuum.
The heels are taking a horrible burial on Raw at the moment—a heel GM would at least give them the excuse to get more screen time.
Alternatively, my friend could be right. In which case, Cole will be facing Lawler in a Kiss My Ass match at Capitol Punishment.

about the skill level... I believe my skill level is pretty good.
also, I don't really enjoy math, but I'm ready to learn, if that what
it takes to work with 3d, and OpenGL.
Thank you for you help.
there's no way to know until you just jump into it. I can't really explain what its actually like doing 3d programmign stuff
can you please give me a clue, on how difficult the math is, and what is the best language to develope such a projects?
Master vectors and matrices. Linear algebra is very important in 3D games.Quote:
how difficult the math is
C or C++. Most tutorials are written for C/C++. Most commercial games are also in C/C++.Quote:
what is the best language to develope such a projects?
what about modding a game? its the 'shallow' end of game programming IMO. half lifes SDK is quite easy to work with (just don't do anything worthwhile, seeing as HL2 will be out soonish:D)
But my question is what is better to deal with 3d programming, c or c++?
that's only really an opinion. I use a C++ compiler, but my code is very very close to being C. I don't use most of the features of C++.
and about the math, like the other dude said, vectors and matrices are heavily used. linear algebra? not really, but okay (I've programmed an entire 3D engine, and so far I haven't used any linear algebra, unless I have without knowing it).
but even something 'easy' such as collision detection is very difficult to do, and unless you're pretty motivated it might not happen. As I said, just try jumping in it, and try to enjoy learning. I still say that if you don't enjoy learning and are not fascinated with the 3d stuff then you might not stick with it as long.
Good luck.
My advice is to start adding books to your library. I just looked at mine the other day and I have many many books related to C/C++, programming, assembly, graphics, Direct3D, operating system design/development, etc. Plus I have 3 huge 3 ring binders chocked full of info I've gathered from the net and also I have 3 directories of PDF books, docs, tech articles, white papers, etc., etc.
You can never have too much information.
Go to www.gamedev.net and look at their books section. It's a good place to start.
Here are some books I've read and can readily recommend:
How to Program Your Own Flight Simulator in C++ by Michael Radtke, Chris Lampton, and foreword by Andre Lamothe.
I had no idea that Andre took part in this book when I bought it and really did not know who Andre was at the time. This is a very old book, once titled Flights of Fantasy, but it is an invaluable resource for 3D graphics. It completely explains matrix operations and shows how to create your own transformations and your own rendering pipeline. While his polygon rasterization methods are quite slow and outdated, I managed to update it with a new algo and the thing simply flew. Very good book for learning the basics. In my opinion you should have an idea of what is going on under the hood of all those DirectX API functions.
This will explain 3D graphics in great detail. It is on www.amazon.com but currently out of print. If you can, get a copy of this book - the DOS portion does not apply anymore but the graphics and matrix portions do. This book is literally torn to shreds from being used so much. The matrix sections are falling out of the book - literally.
Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus (1st edition) by Andre Lamothe.
This book focuses on 2D but gives a very good in-depth look at DirectX and most, if not all, of it's components and covers rasterization of poygons as well as texturing. A very good book to get if you want to know what will be taking place later as you move to Direct3D.
Introduction to 3D Game Programming with DirectX 9.0 by Frank D. Luna.
A very good book on introducing you to Direct3D. It explains a lot of interesting things like 3D math/vectors/matrices (a whole chapter devoted to it), lighting - equations to create your own and how to use the D3D lights, color, vertex/pixel shaders, skyboxes (brief blurb about it in a chapter - with source), texturing/multi-texturing/texture blending, basic terrain rendering, meshes, progressive meshes, stencil buffers, mirrors, cartoon rendering (cell shading), and the list goes on. Very good book.
Special Effects Game Programming with DirectX by Mason McCuskey, edited by Andre Lamothe.
Covers many, many special effects - does a bit too much rehashing of basic Direct3D and Windows API but overall it is a very good book - covers DirectAudio, DirectShow, etc. Mainly it is a collection of special effects articles and how to accomplish them. It is DirectX centered of course but because the algos behind the effects are given they could easily be ported to another API like OpenGL.
I would also recommend any books about the C++ STL, 3D mathematics, computer graphics, sound/audio programming, character animation/modeling, data structures, algorithms, and in general any good book about C and/or C++.
And there are tons more that I have and tons more that I want.
The key thing in programming games is it takes a lot of passion, desire, and persistence. Problems abound in game programming and if you do not like solving problems then you will not like it. If you like solving problems and can think critically and logically, the math will come naturally.
thank you all for your help... I now know what I need to learn and where to learn it from.
Just one last question. I always hear this: game engine... what does it mean, an engine?
thanks again
erm, vectors and matrices are part of linear algebra. So i guess you have used it without knowing it! ;)Quote:

An analytical look at all eight games in Thursday's night session of the 2012 NCAA Tournament (all times ET):
Game of the night: No. 12 VCU vs. No. 5 Wichita State
Region: South
Where/when: Portland, Ore., 7:15 p.m.
VCU's game-changer: Bradford Burgess hasn't been a consistent source of offense, but the senior wing is the player most capable of carrying his team through any given game. In his last nine games, for example, he went for 20 or more—including 31 against George Mason—four times but also was held to 10 or fewer—including a low of five—three times. Last year in the NCAAs, Burgess scored 23 against Purdue to lift VCU into the Sweet 16 and then dropped 26 against Florida State to help his Rams into the Elite Eight. In those two games, he went a combined 9-for-11 from beyond the 3-point arc.
Wichita State's game-changer: In Wichita State's three biggest wins of the season—vs. UNLV, at Creighton and at Davidson—point guard Joe Ragland was at his efficient best. He was a scoring force (28.3 average in those three games) without being, for lack of a better term, a ball hog. He was 29-for-38 from the field (76.3 percent) and had a total of 16 rebounds and 10 assists. This Shockers team is good enough to win NCAA Tournament games when Ragland's not playing at his peak, but they're almost unstoppable when the 6-foot senior is on top of his game.
What will matter: Both teams bring the intensity, but neither plays quite as quickly as their reputations might represent. Wichita State averages 67.0 possessions, which is 123rd in the nation, and VCU's right behind at 66.4. The Shockers, with a roster of diversified scoring talents, are much better in halfcourt sets—they average 0.955 points per possession in halfcourt situations, while VCU is at 0.834. The Rams don't regularly play anyone taller than 6-9, so look for the Shockers to regularly feed their 7-footer, Garrett Stutz, who averages 1.055 PPP in halfcourt sets.
Bottom line: VCU has all kinds of momentum, but the Rams are running into an excellent, senior-laden Wichita State team that is looking to make up for the disappointment of missing last year's NCAA Tournament. Y'know, in addition to winning last year's NIT.

No. 16 Western Kentucky vs. No. 1 Kentucky
Region: South
Where/when: Louisville, Ky., 6:50 p.m.
Nothing to see here ... There are No. 16 seeds capable of sticking around into the second half of games this year, but WKU is not one. Instead, count how many blocks Anthony Davis will have or how many dunks Terrence Jones throws down by the time the next three games start—at 7:15, 7:20 and 7:27.

No. 10 West Virginia vs. No. 7 Gonzaga
Region: East
Where/when: Pittsburgh, 7:20 p.m.
Home sweet home ... Not only does Gonzaga have to travel from Spokane to Pittsburgh (2,247 miles for the highway junkie who decides to drive), but the Bulldogs face an opponent basically playing in its back yard. West Virginia fans can drive from their campus to the CONSOL Energy Center in about the time it takes to listen through Bruce Springsteen's new album.

No. 14 South Dakota State vs. No. 3 Baylor
Region: South
Where/when: Albuquerque, N.M., 7:27 p.m.
TV: truTV
Finding that mile-wide vicious streak ... The physical, aggressive Baylor team that showed up against Kansas and Kansas State in the Big 12 Tournament is the version capable of winning a national title. The meek, reactionary Baylor team that showed up too often during the Big 12 regular season is the one that could get a scare from the Jackrabbits. They're no ordinary rabbits, either. Nate Wolters, who averages 21.3 points per game and went off for 34 in a win at Washington, makes South Dakota State a threat.
Will Leitch: March Madness is sports at its best
No. 9 Connecticut vs. No. 8 Iowa State
Region: South
Where/when: Louisville, Ky., 9:20 p.m.
What might have been ... This is one of the more unlikely 8/9 games ever. On one side, you have the ultra-talented Huskies—with No. 1-seed level of talent—who continually underachieved but won enough games to make the tournament. And then you have an Iowa State team full of transfers who dreamed of leading different schools to the Big Dance. Coach Fred Hoiberg has done an excellent job melding the transfers into a cohesive unit and an amazing job figuring out how to best amplify the unique talents of sophomore Royce White, the 6-8 forward who brings the ball upcourt and initiates the Cyclones' offense.

No. 13 New Mexico State vs. No. 4 Indiana
Region: South
Where/when: Portland, Ore., 9:45 p.m.
What happens when goals change ... When the season started, just reaching the NCAA Tournament was a somewhat lofty goal for IU. Now that the Hoosiers are here, though, and they've earned a No. 4 seed with their 25-8 record, losing to New Mexico State would be a hearty disappointment. The Aggies are tough, but they'll find out quickly whether they're "Big Ten tough."

No. 15 Loyola (Md.) vs. No. 2 Ohio State
Region: East
Where/when: Pittsburgh, 9:50 p.m.
It's the little things ... If nothing else, animated Loyola coach Jimmy Patsos is worth watching on the sidelines as Jared Sullinger, William Buford, Aaron Craft and Deshaun Thomas bulldoze the Buckeyes into the Round of 32.

No. 11 Colorado vs. No. 6 UNLV
Region: South
Where/when: Albuquerque, 9:57 p.m.
TV: truTV
Meeting in the middle ... The Buffaloes powered their way through the Pac-12 Tournament and into the NCAA field, despite only having beaten one RPI top-50 team (Cal) all season. At one point, UNLV was in the discussion for a No. 3 seed, but a 5-5 finish dropped the Rebels to the No. 6 line. Also, of the eight games scheduled in the Round of 64 for the two western sites, Albuquerque and Portland, this is one of only two games where both teams actually are located west of the Great Plains.

Sometimes she can hear their stomachs growl. Other times it's a gaunt stare.
"I have mothers who come in and haven't eaten," said Bettye Jordan, a doula for Hillsborough County. "Their blood sugar drops and you just know."
It's Jordan's job to teach mothers who receive health care at a county clinic how to take care of themselves during pregnancy.
But as the economy worsens, Jordan and the other doulas have expanded their roles. Each week, one takes turns stopping by the grocery store to pick up fruit, granola bars, yogurt and juice. They serve the food during parenting classes.
If they don't, they fear many will go hungry. They estimate it costs them about $100 out of pocket each month, said Susan Garcia, director of the program.
"We've never had to provide services that meant life or death issues like feeding people," Garcia said. "Not like we've had to in the last year."
As social service and nonprofits struggle to work with shrinking budgets, employees of these groups increasingly shoulder some of the load.
And it's only going to get worse, said Rhonda Miller Sheared, vice president of programs and development for Family Service Centers Inc., a nonprofit that provides child abuse, rape crisis and family counseling to Pinellas County residents.
• • •
In good economic times, social service agencies like FSC were given discretionary money for clients who needed help with things like bus fare or baby formula. But this year the money isn't there.
Sheared remembers confronting the agency's child abuse workers who were buying items for clients with their own money.
"I could not stop them," she said. "They told me, 'Rhonda we know the agency says don't do this, but there's no way if I walk into someone's home and their baby's been wearing the same diaper for three days that I'm not going to immediately take $20 out of my own pocket.' "
Last year she got help from the county's Juvenile Welfare Board, which provided $10,000 in emergency funds.
This year, the FSC's budget will get 18 percent less than the $5.3-million it received last year.
"We're going into this crunch again and every year we're looking at this issue," Sheared said. "This is going to keep happening; this is an issue that is not going to stop."
At the St. Petersburg Free Clinic, executive director Jane Egbert says it's common for workers to pitch in.
Her agency feeds more than 6,000 people a year entirely from donations of food, but often runs low on personal hygiene items.
"It's all too normal to say 'I'm sorry we just don't have that at the moment, when all someone really wants is a razor or soap,' " Egbert said. "It's hard to say no."
So volunteers often bring in bags of toothpaste, razors, soap and deodorant, Egbert said.
In the short run, it's a benefit to clients when volunteers and employees pitch in financially, but experts caution it could be detrimental in the long run.
"It contributes to burnout and turnover," said Linda Spears, vice president for policy and public affairs for the Child Welfare League, who worked in the Massachusetts foster care system for more than a decade. "Sooner or later, people, if they're not getting raises and they're spending more of their own money to do things, they have to make hard decisions … like going into another field."
• • •
The National Society of Social Workers has a strict code of ethics that highly discourages workers from giving personal money to clients.
But enforcing a no-personal spending rule is sometimes tough for social charities when budgets barely meet the needs.
"It's like a teacher buying school supplies, we know it's happening, but it's not supposed to," said Adam Mayefsky, spokesman for FSC. "It makes it look like the agency isn't doing its job or that we don't have enough money to help the client directly, but often we don't."
And those in the trenches say they don't have an option.
"I don't think you can do this work without the compassion of wanting to help," said Johnnie Greene, 71, a family support worker at FSC. "We get our gratitude from the feeling that we did something to help someone."
Last week as Greene made her rounds through Pinellas, she dropped by three homes. Each was in need. The least Greene could do was help out with cleaning supplies.
She gave away three bottles of a purple soapy cleaner and three scrub brushes — items she routinely buys for her clients and stashes in her car. She didn't even think about getting reimbursed.
"I've been here long enough to understand the budget has been cut," said Greene, a 22-year veteran at FSC. "But I put my heart and soul into this, so it's what I do."

Here at TMT you know we turnt up/ turnt up/ turn-t/ up. Pause. You know we turnt up/ turnt up/ turn-/t up. Pause. You know we turn turn/ turn turn/ turn-tup. Pause. You know we turnt up/ tur-turn-t up/ tur-turn-t up/ tur-tur-nt up.
So when Mr P stormed into the office this morning carrying two Target bags full of molly and off-brand orange juice, he didn't even need to say it, we all knew: DJ Rashad had just announced a full-length album on his home away from home, Hyperdub Records. Twenty minutes later I'm feelin hi af but for the readers I cut myself off to finish this story. The album's called Double Cup, and like all his past releases it features a rotating cast of friends and associates: Spinn, Earl, and Manny (welcome back), plus SF-based Taso and young buck Addison Groove. "I Don't Give a Fuck" is smack dab in the middle of the 14 tracks, but otherwise it's all fresh material inspired by "Drank, Kush, Barz" and Rashad's own rapidfire muse. Props to Hyperdub for providing the $$ without the "please water it down" caveat. Double Cup comes out October 22 on CD/2xLP/digital, and apparently moves from "low slung, g-funk flavor" into "jagged breakbeat science" without taking more than a couple breaths in between.
To celebrate, Rashad is teaming up with Hyperdub label head Kode9 and generally hyper labelmate Ikonika for a rare US/Canada (+ Mexico) tour; check the dates below, and check them carefully because the lineup varies depending on the city.
Shit, just saw P run into the bathroom, gotta go hold his hair back. Bye!

Current Articles
During World Wetlands Day, the spotlight is on the importance of wetlands for reducing impacts of climate change. Globally, there is a growing recognition of the key role that the protection and restoration of wetlands like marshes, peatlands, mangroves and coral reefs can play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to its impacts. Now, this recognition has to be turned into action.
Recognition by global conventions
Both the Ramsar Convention (Resolution X.24) on Wetlands and the Convention of Biological Diversity (Decision VII/15) also emphasise this in their resolutions, decisions and key messages. This clearly demonstrates the international recognition of the role of wetlands in climate adaptation strategies and is a call for action towards Parties under the UN Framework on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to provide the pathway to prioritize it.
Pieter van Eijk, Wetlands International: "The value of ecosystems for climate change adaptation is now explicitly recognised in the Adaptation text that was on the table at the climate summit in Copenhagen. This is an important step but needs to be taken forward through the financing and implementation of ecosystem based adaptation approaches at all levels of adaptation planning and policies."
For this reason, Wetlands International clearly calls for improved, explicit criteria and guidance on the environmental impacts of projects to be financed within the framework of the Adaptation Fund.
Global campaign on role of wetlands for adaptation by Wetlands International
This year's theme of World Wetlands Day is strongly supported by Wetlands International which runs a global campaign to put this on the political agenda. In 6 countries demonstration projects have started to research the ability of wetlands to reduce peak flood flows, form a buffer against impacts of sea level rise and storms and provide water in periods of extreme droughts.
The project will provide the knowledge base for training programmes to national and local policy makers in Africa, Asia and Latin America, like delegation members of the UNFCCC process, relevant river basin authorities, and donors on climate change adaptation programmes.
Just last week a new project was launched with the support of the government of Guinea Bissau to research the extent to which mangroves can cope with increasing sea levels and salt water intrusion. The project will also restore a significant number of mangrove forests in Guinea Bissau. For this project Wetlands International builds on the experiences of other previous mangrove restoration of Wetlands International in Asia and Africa. The first outcomes of this project are expected at the end of this year. Read the full press release.
