I had Septo-rhinoplasty 3 weeks ago. My whole face looks so different. My eyes look strange, like they're too close or too far apart, can't say which. It doesnt look right. It seems its the bridge being extra thick. I was hoping it was the swelling but seeing progress pictures of other people, their noses look swollen at 3 weeks, but have a nice shape. My nose looks swollen and thick, with my nostrils blending into my tip - not at all nice. Do I live with it, or try again with revision surgery?
Rhinoplasty - Wish I Didn't Do It? Face Looks So Different?
Doctor Answers 4
Rhinoplasty Concerns
You are only 3 weeks post op. Over the next few weeks and months you will notice changes. Swelling will start to subside. Unless you had eyelid surgery, your eyes should look the same. The rate of change also depends on what was done to your nose. Extensive nasal reconstruction can take longer for the swelling to settle down. Follow up with your Plastic Surgeon as he recommends so that he will guide you to complete recovery. Best wishes!
Rhinoplasty - Wish I Didn't Do It? Face Looks So Different?
The nose could still be maturing for up to a year or more. I would follow with your surgeon for an exam at this stage to address your concerns. Swelling will depend upon the nature of maneuvers employed, operative time, presence of grafts or implants, thickness of skin, open vs closed etc.

Face Looks Different After Rhinoplasty
It is not uncommon for your face to look different following a rhinoplasty. You are still so early following your procedure that it is really too early for you to draw any conclusion about your appearance. You should get out at least to a year postoperatively before you consider any revision. Continue to follow up with your rhinoplasty surgeon and express your concerns to the surgeon.

Smart training grooms leaders
As a partner with Deloitte, Philip Tsai is responsible for planning and managing audits for the Hong Kong-based operations of many multinationals, as well as for listed companies in a wide range of industries.
With almost 30 years' accountancy experience, he has seen significant changes in the sector, affecting everything from regulations and technology to the general business environment and client expectations.
For five years to 2005, Tsai served concurrently as the firm's human resources partner overseeing recruitment, retention and staff development, and establishing a fast–track career programme for accountancy graduates. He is actively involved with professional bodies and contributes to various government, community and social service initiatives. He talks to Jan Chan.
Could you briefly outline your career history?
Following my parents' advice, I joined Deloitte on graduating from university in 1981. They told me job security was important no matter the state of the economy, which has turned out to be true. When I was starting out, most of our work was in auditing and taxation. Today, we call ourselves a multi-disciplinary professional services firm, which also handles finance advisory, enterprise risk, and consulting activities.
What are the keys to being an effective leader and building a strong team?
To be an effective leader, firstly you have to know your people and must understand the strengths and weaknesses of each member of the team. I always say you are only as good as the weakest link. Secondly, you must be willing to work in the trenches with your team and be sufficiently hands on not just to review projects they complete. Thirdly, you need to understand that respect and trust must be earned. They don't come automatically along with your job title.
Which mistakes in your career have ultimately taught you the most?
There have been quite a few, but they all taught me valuable lessons, especially that we shouldn't take things for granted. I agree with the saying that you are only as good as your last deal. It reminds me that whatever you may have done well is already history and is no guarantee of future success.
How do you translate management theory into practice?
I have read books by the likes of Peter Drucker, Jim Collins and Jack Welch, and have attended numerous business seminars and management talks. In the end, it comes down to seeing what gets the best results in your work environment. I often find it pays to go back to basics because, sometimes, we just make things too complicated. Taking a step back and identifying a single core issue to resolve can be the best way to move forward.
What is needed to train the next generation?
Overall, we are in the people business; our staff's time and professional skills are the firm's major assets. As a partner, it is my responsibility to develop their potential by providing the right training and exposure. That's why I initiated our smart training programme in 2004 to accelerate the career progress of high-potential employees. The objective is to groom future leaders and give selected individuals the chance to advance faster.
Which books have most influenced your outlook on life?
I like Mitch Albom's books and have read his Tuesdays with Morrie many times. It discusses different aspects of life such as money, family, culture, global issues, and life and death. Each time I read it, I gain some new insight. Sometimes, we can be too focused on work and forget about the other essentials in our lives.
What type of voluntary activities do you take part in?
I am a member of the advisory committees for various professional bodies and am chairman of the Hospital Governing Committee of the Hong Kong Red Cross Blood Transfusion Services. Part of the reason I'm involved in these activities is to enlarge my circle and meet people from all walks of life. Understanding their different perspectives is a good way of enriching my own knowledge and experience.
How do you unwind and deal with day-to-day pressures?
This is not easy. We all know that long working hours are very common in Hong Kong and today's technology means it is harder than ever to separate work from off-duty time. Personally, I don't believe there can be a strict line between the two. We should just learn to integrate work, life and personal values. That said, I still try to make time to read, listen to music and exercise, whenever possible. When younger, I was a distance runner and a regular squash player. Nowadays, I'm more likely to go to gym during lunchtime.
What advice do you have for graduates interested in the field?
They should be passionate about the profession and realise that hard work is a given. Whenever I talk to students, I remind them there are three essential attributes. The first is proficiency in English and Putonghua. If you have a brilliant idea but can't explain it, no one can benefit. Next is to have a global outlook and to be mobile. Young people today should be ready to go where the work and the clients are and not expect to have a single designated workplace. Thirdly, you must keep adding value through continuous learning and development.
By the way
- Tsai is vice-president of the HKICPA and a member of the audit committee for the Western Kowloon Cultural District
- Welcomes colleagues to talk and discuss with him, and likes to join them after work for informal occasions
- Was proud in his younger days when he finished the 100km Oxfam Trailwalker in less than 24 hours

Excellent work from Betty Carter – much more sophisticated than some of her 60s work! The album features Betty recorded in that hip trio format that she developed to fantastic heights during the decade. Betty sings standards and originals with a warmth an imagination that we can hardly describe accurately – bringing emotion into the songs that we'd hardly heard in earlier recordings, and using a trio in ways that we'd never heard before with a vocalist. Incredible stuff all the way through, very much on a par with any of Betty's later work – and featuring cuts that include a sublime version of "Open The Door", plus "New Blues", "I Was Telling Him About You", "Most Gentlemen Don't Like Love", and "Making Dreams Come True".

We realize that there are many different interpretations of the standard grades used for pre-owned vinyl record albums & CD, so we thought we'd offer you the ones that we are working with, so you have an idea what we mean when we give the grade for a non-new item on our pages.
Below are stated conditions for a used vinyl records at Dusty Groove. Grading for the cover should be assumed to be near (within a "+" or "-") the grading for the vinyl. If there is significant divergence from the condition of the vinyl, or specific flaws, these will be noted in the comments section of the item. However, please be aware that since the emphasis of this site is towards the music listener, our main concern is with the vinyl of any used item we sell. Additionally, please note that all of our records are graded visually; considering the volume of used vinyl we handle, it is impossible for us to listen to each record. If we spot any significant flaws, we make every attempt to listen through them and note how they play.
The following grading conditions apply to the vinyl component of an album or single:
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

National and local policy & strategy - getting results
When developing a case for health awareness and support leading to potential investment for a particular group it is essential to know what policy and strategy (locally and nationally) is relevant and can be levered in to get results.
In the case of Building Health Partnerships, the LGF being the case study organisation has helped to push equalities further up the political and commissioning agenda and this was an important feature for those partners attending the group sessions, to be a part of making this happen and then to consider how this could be replicated.
The following policies/strategy – local and national were pivotal to the Building Health Partnerships programme both for understanding the local architecture of the NHS, and for supporting the case for investment to join together common priorities from VCSE partners.

Discussion point
How involved is your organisation in shaping local or even national policy? Do you respond to Government consultations? Participate in forums/discussion groups/attend conferences/meetings etc? If so – what difference has it made?
Watch this video on the new health structures with your staff team http://www.kingsfund.org.uk/projects/nhs-65/alternative-guide-new-nhs-england
1. South Manchester CCG and GP contracts:
Through BHP conversations it was identified that all CCG contracts already have equality monitoring (including Sexual Orientation Monitoring - SOM) as a standard requirement and that all providers are currently monitored on this as part of their contract.
It is likely that these requirements will be monitored more closely as equality is a key feature of any procurement process and potential bidders need to demonstrate compliance with equality legislation, in particular the provision of sensitive and responsive service access and provision for all protected characteristic groups.
This conversation led to the SOM that is happening now across South Manchester.
2. Work with the National Cancer Screening Programmes around cervical screening:
In 2009, the NHS changed its guidance to say that all women, regardless of sexual orientation, should be invited to cervical screening. This reflected new research that proved women who have sex with women were still at risk of cervical cancer. However, we knew from anecdotal evidence that this information wasn't known in the lesbian and bisexual women's community, and even that some were still being turned away from screening by nurses.
The LGF successfully used this guidance to attain funding from the National Cancer Screening Programmes to conduct an information campaign for lesbian and bisexual women about screening, and provide training to NHS staff taking cervical screening samples.
This increased the number of lesbian and bisexual women accessing screening and increased awareness among NHS staff of the need to provide an inclusive service. More information on the campaign can be found at lgbt.foundation/screening.
Practical consideration
Consider your organisation's capacity to engage in policy matters, it is the business of every team member so good policy officers will make sure everyone is involved.
If you do not have a policy officer (a luxury for many small organisations) keep up to date by receiving updates e.g. https://www.gov.uk/government/policies?keywords=Policy+updates&topics%5B%5D=national-health-service&departments%5B%5D=all
By engaging in local partnerships and forums you will get to know the most useful opportunities to attend – keep yourself and your organisation plugged in where you can!

Picture: Katie Hopkins UK Premiere of 'Hairspray' held at the Odeon West End London, England - 05.07.07
Former Apprentice contestant Katie Hopkins has been fired in real life after the Met Office announced she had failed to pass her probationary period.
The 31-year-old business woman became the focus of the hit BBC1 show through her straight-talking attitude, but she caused a stir when she removed herself from the running at the last moment.
Sir Alan Sugar offered Katie a chance to compete in the final, but she declined and said she couldn't move to London without considering the effect it would have on her children.
She has since sold her story to a tabloid newspaper and given details of her private life in a revealing interview.
A spokesman for the Met Office confirmed that Katie had been sacked as of yesterday and was released because "she failed to meet the required standards of her probation".
The two remaining finalists in The Apprentice show, Simon Ambrose and Kristina Grimes, will battle it out for the job in the final episode of the programme on Wednesday.
Sir Alan will reward the winner with a £100,000 job working for the Amstrad group and will test their skills in the property market in the final instalment of the show.
Simon told the BBC that he believed the focus on Katie had "lowered the tone of the programme" when the other contestants had tried to "keep it as serious as possible".

Damage total for burned Longview business could reach $3.5M
By Melissa Greene firstname.lastname@example.com
Sept. 29, 2013 at 11 p.m.
A fire that burned for almost five hours Saturday at a Longview auto parts store caused an estimated $3.5 million in damage and threatened a nearby creek, officials said Sunday.
Motor oil, transmission fluid and other chemicals that are part of the O'Reilly Auto Parts regular inventory threatened to contaminate a creek and drainage system behind the business on West Marshall Avenue, said Longview Fire Marshal Johnny Zackary, but were prevented from doing so.
"Early on in the incident they (O'Reilly's management team) took full responsibility and hired outside companies to handle the hazardous materials portion of it," Zackary said. "It's important at a store like this because there's just a multitude of chemicals in an auto parts store."
A hazardous materials team with Allied International Emergency responded to the scene after being contacted by O'Reilly's officials. No contaminants reached the creek, Zackary said, adding that a city crew also set up dikes and dams at runoff points as a precaution.
A firefighter who received steam burns during the incident was doing well Sunday after being treated and released from Longview Regional Medical Center late Saturday, Zackary said.
Ten off-duty firefighters were called to assist 30 already on scene, Zackary said, as four departments from other cities stepped in to answer calls while most of the city's resources were deployed at the fire.
The fire was reported about 12:45 p.m. Saturday by an O'Reilly's employee who discovered flames in a back room of the 10,000-square-foot building. That employee alerted others in the building and all safely exited.
Because the store serves as a hub for other stores in the region, it contained more inventory and employs more personnel than a typical store, Regional Manager David Plaster said Sunday.
"It's a pretty tough pill to swallow," he said. "This store is regional hub and affects a lot of other stores."
About 40 employees will be temporarily relocated to two other locations in Longview or other stores served by the hub, including those in Lufkin, Jacksonville, Gilmer and Gladewater.
"We're just really grateful we didn't lose any team members. We can replace all this," Plaster said, motioning to the burned structure. "We can't replace a loss of life."
O'Reilly District Manager Jimmy Carter said the building was in flames when he arrived Saturday, shortly after store Manager John Nutter notifed him of the fire.
On Sunday, the 30-year old building showed signs of structural instability, such as a heavily sagging roof. Company officials said it remained to be seen how much of the building will be torn down, but they called it a total loss.
"We hope (the business impact) won't be much at all. We've already got computer equipment coming to go up in other stores to run the operation out of those," Carter said.

Former manufacturing complex forming southern part of extensive multi-phase cotton textile factory, partially in use as small industrial estate at time of inspection. c.1792, continuously remodelled and enlarged between 1788 and c.1840, further altered late C19, mid and late C20. Built by the Evans family of Darley Abbey. MATERIALS. Red brick and ashlar gritstone with slate roof coverings. PLAN. Complex forms part of manufacturing complex sub-divided by Old Lane and powered originally by watercourses flowing through the site, fed by the River Derwent. It is formed by a functionally related group of buildings identified as LONG MILL, MIDDLE MILL, EAST MILL and WEST MILL. The SW corner of the complex, attached to the rear walls of Middle and East Mills is made up of accretional structures related to the development of the site comprising ENGINE HOUSE & CHIMNEY, BOBBIN SHOP,DRYING SHED and TOLLHOUSE. LONG MILL: EXTERIOR : 17 bay mill aligned north-south of 5 storeys and attic, rebuilt and enlarged following fire damage in 1788. Various patterns of timber windows, some with cast iron opening lights, beneath shallow brick arched and flat stone lintels. INTERIOR: Lower floor wooden transverse beams supported by single rank of cruciform-section cast iron columns set into detached capitals. Exposed timber surfaces and beam soffits and faces covered by thin iron sheets fixed by nails. The attic floor is supported by a matrix of wooden beams rather than transverse beams. Roof structure supported by timber queen-post trusses with cambered collar beams, the trusses and purlins protected by iron sheeting. The lower framing of a bell tower survives at the northern end of the attic floor. MIDDLE MILL: EXTERIOR: 6 bay eastwards addition to Long Mill of 5 storeys probably dating c. 1796-1801. Various patterns of timber windows, some multi-paned with cast iron opening lights, beneath shallow brick arched lintels. Wide stone framed wheel race arch below southern elevation. INTERIOR: The floors and roof were rebuilt mid C20 following a fire. Large blocked arched opening indicates position of former waterwheel. EAST MILL. EXTERIOR : 6 bay, 5 storey eastward continuation of Middle Mill but slightly wider in plan probably dating c.1818-19. Various patterns of timber windows, some with cast iron opening lights, beneath shallow brick arched lintels. INTERIOR: Fire-proof construction with cylindrical cast iron columns supporting iron beams and brick jack arches and an iron roof. Roof structure framed by iron trusses consisting of principal rafters and a cruciform section king post rising from a low collar with slender spandrel braces at the ends of the collar. WEST MILL. EXTERIOR 7 bay by 7 bay L-shaped westwards 4 storey plus attic addition to central bays of Long Mill thought to date from 1819-21. INTERIOR: Fire-proof construction with cylindrical cast iron columns supporting iron beams and brick jack arches and an iron roof. The brick jack arches run longitudinally in the link block and transversely in the return thus maintaining a single alignment of vaulting but requiring 3 round cast iron columns to each of the cast iron beams in the link, but only one to the transverse beams in the return. The top floor consists of timber joists spanning between the iron trusses; both the joists and attic-level studwork are protected by metal sheeting. Roof structure framed by iron trusses with cranked tie beams, principal rafters, purlins and two sets of cruciform-section struts, all in cast iron, together with twin wrought-iron king-rods. The shorter east-west arm (attached to Long Mill) has straight purlins and cast iron common rafters, the longer north-south arm has fish-bellied purlins and timber common rafters. ENGINE HOUSE AND CHIMNEY. EXTERIOR: 4 bay by 1 bay, single storey southward addition to Middle Mill dating to c. 1896. A double doorway with semi-circular fanlight occupies most of the southern elevation. INTERIOR: Match boarded with stop-chamfered timber roof trusses. Built to house 250hp horizontal single tandem condensing steam engine by John Musgrave & Son, Bolton. Detached circular brick built chimney with string course to cap. BOBBIN SHOP. EXTERIOR: 4 bay, single storey structure to south of East Mill dating to c.1840, original windows have iron lintels. INTERIOR: Cast iron and wrought iron roof with shaft hangers. DRYING SHED. Tall, single storey structure (formerly with slatted sides)with ventilated roof. TOLLHOUSE. EXTERIOR octagonal, single storey rendered brick structure with slated roof a single tall chimney stack late C18 or early C19. Latterly a tollhouse but probably originally a watchman's lodge guarding the entrance to the mills. HISTORY Long Mill is shown on a plan of 1782 by Benjamin Outram powered by a cut from the River Derwent and it was rebuilt in 1788 following a fire. Its late C18 cast iron columns are some of the earliest in situ and it is the earliest known example of a textile mill using metal sheeting for fire resistance. The attic was adapted c1791 for use as a school room perhaps providing the model for the noted example at North Mill Belper. The southern complex was a highly-significant water-powered site with at least four large waterwheels and latterly there were five water turbines - 2 twin and 3 single - totalling over 435 hp. Long Mill and West Mill retain significant evidence of the later phases of their complicated power transmission systems, including rope slots, shaft hatches, bearing boxes and shaft hangers. There are blocked wheel arches in the walls of Long Mill and West Mill and open arches below Middle Mill as evidence of the former waterwheels, some of which reputedly worked to c.1923.
This complex of structures forms part of the textile manufacturing site at Darley Abbey which traded under the name of Boars Head Mills. The complex as an entity is exceptional in its completeness of survival, and displays important aspects of the development of fire-proofing technology for textile factories. The site forms part of the closely related network of pioneer textile manufacturing sites in the Derwent Valley; Thomas Evans was an associate of Richard Arkwright of Cromford and the Evans family was related by marriage to the Strutt family who had mills in Belper, Milford and Derby. Darley Abbey sits alongside these settlements in terms of both historic and architectural significance, the mill complex retains all of its major early buildings as well as the C19 additions, many of which are distinguished by the use of iron roofs.

The Parker High School football players are digging deep to help a single parent with two children this holiday season.
They, along with members of the school's quarterback club, presented the mother of two with a $500 gift card.
This is the first year the students and club members have done this and they didn't go out and try to raise money. Instead they gave whatever spare change and cash they had of their own.
Mother of two and recipient Tameka Wynn has been unemployed for the last five months. She says this is a very big and unexpected blessing.
"I really didn't know how I was going to provide for my girls for Christmas and you know I prayed about it and like I said this came as a surprise to me but I'm very thankful for it," Wynn said.
The quarterback team also plans to adopt another family for New Year's.
After hearing about the team's generosity, members of the school's baseball team have also adopted a family for Christmas. They will present a gift card, toys and food to a family this weekend.

Grade: A
"Big Bad Love" is one of those films that drips off of the screen and slowly washes over the audience. Some feel overwhelmed and resist while others greet the immersion happily. The film spends its one hour and fifty minutes exploring the mind of Leon Barlow (Arliss Howard, "Natural Born Killers"). Every sunny room and dark corner is traversed. The travel is well worth the effort, though, as the landscape is funny, tragic and rich.
Barlow is a chain-smoking alcoholic who is desperately trying to conjure fiction from the shambles of his life. He is in still in love with his ex-wife (Debra Winger, "Urban Cowboy") but powerless to act on it. He is tormented by a desire to write but powerless to realize it. He is slowly being destroyed by alcohol but powerless to overcome his addiction. His dreams ebb and flow through his reality like an ever-present tide. It is impossible to tell which is which as the line between them is non-existent. This is the way the world looks through Barlow?s eyes and that?s the only reality that matters.
Howard adapted the screenplay from a collection of short stories by Mississippi writer Larry Brown. The result is a script that is sharp as well as literary. Dialogue often mixes with prose, a fitting soundscape for the mind of a writer.
Howard also directs and stars in the film. He sometimes allows the film get complicated with a barrage of visuals and sounds but wisely knows when to let the wave break. These moments of chaos are tempered by languid and sparse interchanges. The result is an unsettlingly real environment that unfolds so tangibly you feel as if you could reach out and grab it.
In addition to the eye and ear candy, "Big Bad Love" also showcases a number of incredibly impressive acting performances.
Often falling-down drunk and chipping away at the foundation of his life and those around him, Barlow is not a lovable character. He is not supposed to be. Howard masterfully seesaws his character?s persona between tragic and triumphant.
Meanwhile, Debra Winger single handedly redefines the cinematic depiction of ex-wives. Her Marilyn is strong and conflicted, and she commands the screen in each of her appearances.
Paul Le Mat ("American Graffiti") and Rosanna Arquette ("Desperately Seeking Susan") also turn in multi-layered supporting performances.
In the end, "Big Bad Love" is as innovative as it is haunting. It will no doubt seduce some and alienate others, but there?s something to be said for a film that lets you dream without sleeping.

Scientists in Germany have been able to get enough DNA from a fossilized pinky to produce a high-quality DNA sequence of the pinky's owner.
"It's a really amazing-quality genome," says David Reich of Harvard Medical School in Boston. "It's as good as modern human genome sequences, from a lot of ways of measuring it."
The pinky belonged to a girl who lived tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists aren't sure about the exact age. She is a member of an extinct group of humans called Denisovans. The name comes from Denisova cave in Siberia, where the pinky was found.
Two years ago, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig reported that they had been able to get just enough DNA from the fossil to make a rough sequence of her DNA. But Matthias Meyer developed a far more efficient way of recovering ancient DNA, so he went back to the tiny amount of DNA left over from the first effort, and reanalyzed it.
"And from this little leftover, we were able to determine the sequence of the Denisova genome 30-fold over," says Meyer.
What that means is they were able to look at every single location along all of this girl's chromosomes 30 times to be absolutely certain that they had the right DNA letter in the right spot. The new results appear in the online edition of the journal Science.
The high-quality sequence gives scientists valuable new data for studying ancient humans. Researchers have begun, for example, to explore which modern human populations may have inherited genes from Denisovans.

Farmington Hills, Mich., April 11, 2007 – For the second year running, the American Cancer Society, Great Lakes Division, named Botsford Hospital as a Five-Star Community Investor for Botsford's role in the fight against cancer in southeastern Michigan.
"As Botsford enters a new era in cancer treatment, we are especially proud of this recognition of our hospital's dedication to cancer prevention, screening and treatment programs for our community members," commented Paul LaCasse, D.O., Botsford's president and CEO.
The Farmington Hills hospital has plans to add a 30,000-square-foot cancer center on Grand River Avenue frontage that it owns. This $15.5 million project will house radiation oncology facilities, office space for Botsford's medical oncologists and rooms for complementary therapies. Groundbreaking is planned for later this year. In a related construction project, the hospital also plans to restore the historic portion of the Botsford Inn, which would include a rose garden situated between the famous inn and the cancer center. Patients receiving treatment would be able to look out over this garden.
To qualify for the award, Botsford partnered with the American Cancer Society in five of the society's outreach, education and support initiatives. "These initiatives reflect Botsford's community mission," said Rhonda Falzon, manager of Botsford's cancer nursing unit. "These include tobacco prevention and cessation programs, referring our patients to the American Cancer Society for transportation services to and from chemotherapy or radiation treatments, community screenings, helping patients connect with American Cancer Society breast cancer peer support groups and maintaining a Web site link that allows our patients direct assess to the information and educational materials on the American Cancer Society's Web site."
Botsford Hospital, an independent, acute care, 330-bed community hospital in Farmington Hills, Mich., was founded in 1965. Nationally recognized for quality, safety and medical education programs, Botsford has received the 2005 Solucient 100 Top Hospitals: Performance Improvement Leaders award and the 2005 Governor's Award of Excellence for Improving Care in the Hospital Setting (for treatment of heart attack, heart failure and pneumonia) and in the Emergency Department Setting (for treatment of heart attack and pneumonia). Botsford's Web address is www.botsford.org.

FAMU announces its own task force and $50,000 for hazing research grants
Florida A&M leaders announced faculty research grants totaling $50,000 and the selection of an advisory task force as part of the university's latest efforts to rid its campus of hazing rituals following a senior band member's November death.
Florida A&M professors who receive the grants will study "the nature and extent of hazing behaviors among campus organizations and groups," President James Ammons announced in a Thursday news release. Professors will be asked to dive into the secretive and sometimes brutal nature of hazing rituals that occur within student organizations, unofficial band cliques and other "off-campus entities," among other topics.
Also on Thursday, FAMU trustees chose seven people to serve on a task force that will examine how administrators handle hazing cases at other universities, what works in persuading students not to submit to the rituals, and how to govern the famed Marching 100 band.
The announcements follow a Wednesday review of Ammons' job performance by school trustees. Ammons has been criticized for his handling of hazing complaints over the years, and especially last fall, by several parents, students and Julian White, the band director Ammons initially fired after Robert Champion died during a band trip Nov. 19.
But his review only covered the 2010-11 academic year, so several uncovered hazing incidents were not discussed. Trustees generally said he performed well but did not meet fundraising goals, the AP reported.
In other hazing-related news, University of Florida officials warned this week that a student was injured in a "serious physical hazing" incident last weekend. Details of the student's injuries were not disclosed.
The incident occurred only days after the university's new antihazing task force met for the first time to review its hazing policies, per the instruction of Gov. Rick Scott.
The FAMU task force includes the following professionals:
• Stephen Craig Robinson (Chairman) – Former U.S. District Court Judge and current partner at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom;
• Dr. Na'im Akbar – Clinical Psychologist and Former President, National Association of Black Psychologists;
• Elizabeth Allan – Professor, University of Maine and Co-Director, The National Collaborative for Hazing Research and Prevention;
• Michael V. Bowie – Executive Director of Florida Fund for Minority Teachers & former national president of the National Pan-Hellenic Council;
• David Brewer – Former Vice Admiral of the United States Navy and Superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District;
• Mary Madden – Professor, University of Maine & Co-Director, The National Collaborative for Hazing Research and Prevention;
• David Starnes – Band Director and Professor of Music at Western Carolina University .

The preseason doesn't mean much to a lot of people, but for the handful of Celtics trying to earn one of the final roster spots, it means everything.
So far, it appears that guard Dionte Christmas has the heads up on the rest of the unguaranteed field, according to Celtics Insider A. Sherrod Blakely.
"The guy that has jumped out, really, is Dionte Christmas His versatility has really set him apart. He has the ability to score at this level. He's proven to be a decent defender and he's learning to be more of a facilitator, something we did not see much of when he came out of Temple University."
Christmas is competing with other players like C's second round pick Kris Joseph, and undrfafted players Jamar Smith, Micah Downs, and Rob Kurz.
But according to Blakely, Christmas has a partial guarantee, which in his case means that he'll make more than 200,000 from the team whether or not he makes it. That will certainly play a part in the C's decision.

Davos 2014: UN Pushes Sustainable Energy as Climate Weapon
Susanne Posel ,Chief Editor Occupy Corporatism | The US Independent
January 23, 2014
The global Elite have gathered in Switzerland to discuss the future of the planet; while enjoying a ski vacation in Davos.
Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) warns that "the world economy is at risk unless a binding climate deal is agreed in Paris in 2015 to lower heat-trapping carbon emissions from coal and oil."
Figueres points toward "the signal to the global economy needs to be stronger than it is right now" to shift to sustainable energy and stabilize global warming in order to avoid the consequences of climate change.
Lubos Motl, former professor at Harvard commented : "The actual goal of the climatism is to liquidate democracy, freedom, and prosperity in the world. …It's the very ability of the one-party system to neutralize the opposition of any kind that is so intriguing for Ms Figueres and thousands of champions of the climate alarmism. It's what their talk about the 'consensus' and the dissatisfaction with the 'contrarians' is all about. The goal of these people is to stop democracy, freedom, and prosperity regardless of the fate of Nature, the temperatures, or the CO2 concentrations."
According to the World Economic Forum (WEF), there are risks to the world , as outlined:
• Fiscal crises in key economies
• Structurally high unemployment/underemployment
• Water crises
• Severe income disparity
• Failure of climate change mitigation and adaptation
• Greater incidence of extreme weather events (e.g. floods, storms, fires)
• Global governance failure
• Food crises
• Failure of a major financial mechanism/institution
• Profound political and social instability
Yale University (YU) published a study last year that stated 1 out of 3 Americans have had conversations about climate change; intimating that Americans do not care about our planets, as long as they have their distractions and consumer goods.
In 2012, the UN decided to end the debate over what to do about climate change. Leaders from countries across the globe are meeting in Bonn, Germany to decide on the content of a binding agreement that would force the nations of the world to follow the guidelines of the UN on the global climate change issue.
Christiana Figueres, the UN climate chief, stated in a recent conference that greenhouse cuts pledged by countries fall short of the minimum that alarmist scientists claim is needed to avoid the coming effects of global warming.
A new global treaty is championed as the answer to carbon emissions. While scientific data shows that carbon dioxide has nothing to do with the temperature of the earth, climate change alarmists are using this manufactured threat to usher in global treaties to usurp nation's sovereign right to conduct business, as well as force governments to pay global "carbon tax" as a funding source for development and manufacturing for products the alarmists plan on selling to nations and individuals as a necessity for the coming "global warming age".
Figueres remarked that "bridging the gap is both technically attainable and economically feasible". She urges wealthy countries should do more to cut their emissions.
The issue of how to administer their regulations onto developing nations has been heated. The new treaty will mandate by international law that all nations take action to mitigate global warming.
A complete list of regulations and requirements are being decided on while strategically scheming on how to incrementally implement these rules is being decided upon.
"First and foremost we have to ensure that there is no backtracking on what was agreed in Durban," said Christian Pilgaard Zinglersen, a Danish official representing the European Union.
The talks at Bonn are being moved to the climate summit in Qatar in the later end of 2012.
A second Kyoto Protocol is being discussed with the extent of the agreement a matter of debate. As the Kyoto Protocol is expiring this year , the European Union is clamping down on China and India's carbon emissions, claiming that the Kyoto protocol is outdated.
In 1997, the Kyoto protocol was formulated from the UN Rio+20 Earth Summit just five years prior. Technological advancing nations like China and India were left out of the obligated countries to curb emissions outputs.
World leaders backed by the UN are prompting questions about the applicability of the Kyoto protocol as unfair while China moves ahead to become another industrialized super-power.
Climate scientists have recommended that the new treaty include the largest carbon dioxide emission countries and "other gases that contribute to global warming".
The scientists urge centralized governments to plan, invest and enforce measures to mitigate the destruction of natural resources by natural disasters.
Public health management is an imperative as the world's population growth has exceeded the international communities' expectations.
There is a call for development and manufacturing of greenhouse safe products; however the allocation of funding toward research for finding a way to mitigate or even stop climate change effects seems to be left out.
The business of climate change is expected to be quite lucrative for those successful at convincing authoritative bodies that these technologies must be purchased by their nation and mandated for use by their citizens.
When the Kyoto Protocol was signed, the US government cited the lack of emission reduction to under developed nations. China and India were among those countries that were exempt from the restrictions of the treaty.
Climate alarmists are spreading the propaganda of potential catastrophic events will come in the near future if their warning are not headed now.
"If you look at the science, we're spending time we don't have," said Tove Ryding, the climate policy coordinator of environmental group Greenpeace.
They are placing pressure on the talks to expedite the negotiations or planet will experience floods, droughts and the continued rising of sea levels.
Recently Klaus–Ekart Puls, physicist and meteorologist, has come out publicly to denounce the science that climate change is based on.
The IPCC claims that their projecting computer models indicate that there will be a 0.2 degrees Celsius warming trend per decade to culminate in 2 to 4 degrees Celsius rise by 2100.
Puls says that this assertion is based on "speculative model projections, so-called scenarios – and not prognoses. Because of climate's high complexity, reliable prognoses just aren't possible".
Puls points out that contrary to the scenario IPCC's computer models predict, "there hasn't been any warming since 1998. In fact the IPCC suppliers of data even show a slight cooling".

Policeman's death force Italy to plot drastic moves
ROME, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi has promised drastic measures to confront soccer violence after clashes by rampaging fans at a top level match left a policeman dead and as many as 150 people injured.
Prodi was forced to intervene as Italy's football stadiums fell silent on Saturday with all play in the country's leagues suspended indefinitely after the nation's second soccer-related death in a week.
'We cannot continuously put the lives of police officers at risk and need a remedy that makes soccer clubs feel responsible (for fans' actions) and radically changes the situation,' Prodi told reporters in Bologna.
He and top Italian sports officials convened a series of high-level meetings to hammer out emergency measures to curb future hooliganism.
But a quick resumption of matches appeared unlikely with Interior Minister Giuliano Amato saying he would no longer send his police force to matches under existing conditions.
'Enough is enough,' he told Italian television. 'Violence is everywhere, but violence in the stadiums connected to a game -- I find that truly unacceptable.'
Rowdy brawls at football matches in Italy are not uncommon. But images of hundreds of hooded rioters hurling flares and firecrackers at Friday's Serie A match in Catania sparked a wave of outrage in Italy, with Italian media calling it a shameful disgrace for a nation that brought home the World Cup last year.
The latest violence is also a blow for Italy's bid to host the 2012 European Championships -- with La Stampa newspaper calling for Italy to withdraw from the race now.
Trouble at Friday's match between Palermo and Catania began with smoke -- partly from tear gas outside the stadium -- suspending play for a half hour.
Violent clashes between rioters and the police lasted for hours after the game, during which a large firecracker exploded in 38-year old police officer Filippo Raciti's face. He died as he arrived at hospital.
The death came just six days after a club official died in a fight after an amateur match in the southern town of Luzzi.
'You can't be allowed to kill a policeman and leave two children as orphans just because you think you have the right to root for your team,' Salvatore Renda, a policeman who was wounded last night told Italian television.
The Italian Football Federation (FIGC), which has indefinitely suspended all games, called for a moment of silence on Saturday and Sunday. Italy's international friendly against Romania in Siena on Wednesday has been called off.
The Italian Olympic Committee, one of Italian sport's governing bodies, will hold an extraordinary meeting on Sunday to discuss the situation. Prodi will meet top ministers on Monday, while Amato is expected to address Parliament on Tuesday.
Pressure is building for tough steps to tackle the problem. The president of the Italian Footballers' Association, Sergio Campana called for the leagues to be halted for at least a year.
His suggestion -- though unlikely to be followed -- would at least give Italian clubs the chance to modernise their old-fashioned stadiums to bring them into line with those in other top European leagues.
Fiorentina goalkeeper Sebastien Frey says he is not surprised by the violence.
'There had already been several incidents with the referees last summer,' the Frenchman told sports daily L'Equipe on Saturday. 'Now violence is back around the stadiums.'
'If we go on like this people will not come to the stadiums. We are in a vicious circle.'
Raciti was the 13th person to be killed in or around Italy's football stadiums since 1962. The last fatality at a Serie A match happened in 1995 when a Genoa fan was stabbed to death before a game against AC Milan.

Ok, had my gait checked and I'm neutral, heel striking on my right but mid foot with my left.....go figure? The shop was excellent but the 3 I was best suited to were the Saucony Ride, Asics Gel Nimbus and Brooks Glycerin, all very expensive towards the top end. Can anyone tell me what mid range equivalents would be?

Rickreall Gun Show Mar 9th & !0th 2013
Location: Polk County Fairgrounds & Event Center

They started with two ammo dealers, both sold out of pistol & 223 ammo Saturday afternoon. Semi auto pistols sold well. There were many AR's Ak's & SKS' that didn't sell. AR's & AK's were priced !,000+, SKS' were 500. 9mm was $250 per 1,000 bulk pack. 10mm $ 25.00 box of 50.-- 45acp $22 box of 50.-- 22 LR was selling at $40 / 500 brick, some priced as high as $60 per brick but not selling at that price.
The folks were in a good mood although at times they had to hold people at the door until some exited because building capacity was reached. It was a record attendance.
I was there. I looked at a few russian guns. Mosin Nagant for the most part, a Makarov, a few Tokarev's
I didn't buy anything at the show but got to play with a Mosin Nagant. Then found a hex receiver version at a pawn shop here in Salem so I bought it.

Can You Use Petit Four Kit For Making Cake Balls?
Decorating By eatdessert1st Updated 30 Oct 2007 , 2:24pm by MFitz
If so, how would you do it? I'm thinking of getting a kit for my bday present to myself.
what is a petit four kit?
it's a kit with cutters, plastic molds, and silicone molds for decorating the top of the cakes. Really cool cake toys!
now that I have seen it I would want to say yes but that still isn't a great answer to rely on sorry... but thank you!
I got my set at the ICES convention and LOVE it!
The petite fours are basically chocolate covered cake balls-
If you don't want to cut out sheets of cake with the shaped cutters you could definitely just fill the mold with "cake ball" mix-
It would taste exactly the same
I highly recommend- Fun to play with!

The big three mobile phone operators will have to commit billions of dollars by early next year to renew their spectrum licences or face the threat of losing the vital assets at a public auction.
The unexpected deadline injects new urgency into the government's negotiations with
The Australian Financial Review can reveal exclusively that federal officials have set the timetable in recent days to accelerate the commercial talks, amid government concerns that the three companies have been too slow to put forward their bids.
The timing is also central to the government's fiscal ambitions as the looming spectrum revenue boosts the return to surplus in 2012-13, although the one-off gains are not expected to be included in the May budget.
The government has not revealed its price expectations. Sources indicate that it expects offers to be influenced by the $5.9 billion paid in Germany and the $4.2 billion paid in Canada for similar spectrum in recent years. A higher spectrum price could flow on to mobile phone charges.
The government has commissioned a private valuation that concludes the Australian spectrum is worth far more than the $3 billion paid for it 10 years ago because of the huge growth in mobile phone use and the explosion in wireless data services.
The negotiations are part of a wider industry overhaul that will open up new space for 4G mobile services and shift TV stations onto a different frequency range at a time when companies fear a shortage of spectrum capacity to meet the voracious consumer demand for mobile entertainment and communications.
Measures to auction the existing mobile phone spectrum are due to begin in the second quarter of next year if the commercial negotiations fail, creating uncertainty for the carriers about the ownership of their basic infrastructure.
"It has to be done soon and it has to get serious," a senior government official said of a deal with Telstra, Optus and Vodafone.
"If they hold off too long we're left with very little ability to do anything other than an auction."
The move follows the passage of legislation last month that gives Communications Minister
The timetable is also shaped by plans for an auction in 2012 to sell separate spectrum in the 700MHz range that is now used for free-to-air television but which will be left vacant after the planned switch to digital broadcasting in 2013.
Senator Conroy has billed the analog television range as the "waterfront property" of wireless communication because it is in demand from mobile phone companies seeking to offer 4G services for the next generation of mobile devices.
But the Australian Communications and Media Authority's chief executive,
ACMA is working on a "simultaneous ascending auction" system to manage the 4G sale and is expected to finalise the technology in the second half of next year after consultations with industry. The same system could be used to auction the existing mobile spectrum if needed.
Leading the process is the secretary of the Department of Broadband, Communications and Digital Economy, Peter Harris, but the government has also appointed a commercial negotiator to hammer out a price agreement with the three carriers.
Senior Treasury and Finance officials have also joined a working group to oversee the talks and the government has hired Plum Consulting to value the spectrum.
The structure is aimed at keeping the minister out of the negotiations in order to minimise opportunities for direct lobbying to cabinet ministers and to also head off concerns about political influence on the final deal.
Under the law passed last month, the Communications Minister would have the final say on the licence renewals but must consider public interest criteria such as promoting the "highest value use" of the spectrum, encouraging competition, ensuring consumer convenience and getting an "appropriate rate of return" for the community.
In a sign of tension between Canberra and the industry, the Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association has paid for research that warns against setting a high price on the renewed licences.
One argument in the study by Chris Doyle of Apex Economics is that a high licence fee would make it harder for the mobile phone companies to invest in new services, harming the economy.
AMTA chief executive Chris Althaus told The Australian Financial Review on Monday that the government should move quickly so that the industry could plan ahead.
Yet some within the government said the industry bore responsibility for any delay because the companies had not put forward any offer for the spectrum nor any financial information that would set the parameters for a licence deal.
One official said that the government would need to see specific financial data, such as the number of subscribers on networks and their usage patterns, to understand the value of the spectrum to the mobile phone companies over the next 15 years. It is understood that Treasury has cautioned the government against any process that "throws the spectrum away" by not putting enough competitive pressure on the mobile phone companies.
The original licences were for 15 years and were signed between 1998 and 2000, covering the 800MHz, 1800MHz, 2.1GHz and 2.3GHz parts of the spectrum.
Some of the licences were bought by Austar, which paid $183 million in 2000 for some of the 2.3GHz band, but some of the projects to use the spectrum were shut down, such as the Howard government's Opel wireless broadband scheme. The Radiocommunications Amendment Bill 2010 gave the government the authority to refuse to renew a licence if the spectrum was not being used.
While the first licences do not expire until 2013, the government chose to bring forward the renewal negotiations to early 2011 to ensure there was enough time to get a fair price for the usage rights.
The expected auction in 2012 will be for the 700MHz frequency range, which is considered ideal for mobile devices.

This is an excellent cookbook if you want to eat healthier versions of comfort foods. I appreciate how nutritional facts are broken down so I can figure out WW points. Pictures for recipes also a big plus.
I've always liked the Taste of Home cookbooks and magazines but found alot of the recipes too high in calories, fat, carbs, etc. I purchased my first Taste of Home Comfort Food Diet Cookbook last year. All the recipes my daughter and I have tried have been very tasty and healthy. I started looking for another Taste of Home cookbook with additional recipes and saw this one. I'm eager to get started. As with the first book--the recipes all look very "delicious".
I love this book x 10. Great recipes!!! Not only do you get 416 recipes but the book also provides a lot of other healthy advice and a 6 week meal plan..The book also has a picture for almost every recipe in the book. I love when cook books have pictues!!! I have a lot of cook books many are only used once or twice and then given away but this one is definitely a keeper!!!
I have several of these comfort food diet cook books. This one is a little more above for the average cook. Alot of the recipes call for things that are not laying around the house. . .
