3 months and I have a jutting point coming from my nose. One side feels flat and the other looks more round, the pic of my nose is currently my profile pic. I'm not sure what to do? Should I seek revision, consult with my doctor or ? Thanks so much ~ Katie
Jutting Point Coming From Nose Tip 3 Months Post-Op, Do I Need a Revision? Pic Enclosed
Doctor Answers 7
Revision Rhinoplasty
It appears that there is severe asymmetry on your nasal tip, because of the way the cartilages on the right and left are positioned. While you still have swelling. This asymmetry will probably get worse with time as the swelling decreases.
The cartilages need to be repositioned to fix this problem.
The appearance of the tip of your nose, after Rhinoplasty Surgery, will continue to change over the next 6-9 months.
I read your concern and reviewed your photo: I see that you have protrusion of your tip cartilage more on your right than your left. This may change with time. 3-mos. post-op is too soon to consider revision rhinoplasty. I could provide better advice after viewing a frontal photo. The aerial view you posted is relatively unimportant as this is not how the world sees you.
If you're bothered by your appearance, you should certainly bring your concerns to your surgeon. If his analysis is not reassuring for you, you should get a second opinion from a reputable rhinoplasty specialist.
I hope this is helpful for you.
Regards from NJ.

Nasal tip uneven at 3 mths.
As you can see from the other doctors, you shouldn't be concerned this early in your post op course. Continue the post op routine your doctor has prescribed to decrease the swelling. Sometimes a little make-up can make the nose seem a little more even.
I hope that this is helpful for you . Jon Sattler, MD Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Glendora, California.

You need to give this more time, at least 3 months. Also, continue to follow up with your plastic surgeon. Sometimes revisions are necessary, and this is not all that uncommon.
The irregular tip after rhinoplasty
Though the irregular area or flattening may not go away after three months, it is best to wait another three to six months to let the tip fully soften. This will be the best time to see what problems remain, and if you still feel that you should consider revision.
Best of luck,

I need your advice!!!!

Hi everyone. I have had 2 Csections and my loose skin bothers me tremendously. I have wanted a tummy tuck for so long. I think about it every single day. It effects my marriage, my self image and controls my life. The only thing between me and my tummy tuck is the fact that I have only been on the job for 3 months. Would it look bad on me if I asked for the time off unpaid. I can even do most of my work from home and would be willing to do it unpaid. Should I ask? Do I be honest about why I need the time off or fib? This is a small office and everyone knows everything about everyone. What should I do. Please help!

Mound in Peru where Mr. Icke had his 'Experience'
About a minute's drive from the car park at Sillustani there are some cones, or at least there were today, where we left the site. There is a hill of sorts to the right of the road here but it seemed too close, so we carried on. Another minute or so and I decided I had my first candidate; we stopped and I scampered up a hillside. It wasn't really a mound, though, and after a few minutes I decided that this probably wasn't it; it seemed to go on and on with no stone circle in sight!
However, I did get high enough to see that there definitely wasn't a stone circle on the first hill either, and also that there were some stones on the next hill. So I scampered back down again, asked the driver to drive the 500m or so to the next hill, and went up to take a look there. On closer inspection what I found there was more rectangular than round, perhaps the ruins of a building. I went back to the car, almost ready to give up. However, another minute or so down the road there was another mound. We stopped again and I head up to the top.
There was indeed a circle of stones, about waist height. They were not slabs, like you'd find at Stonehenge, but more like a dry stone wall. However they were certainly in a circle, and at the point furthest from the road there was a taller stone structure, adding to the ceremonial sense of the place. I stood in the centre for a while, faced various directions, soaking up the atmosphere for a while.
I went back to the car and we drove on. We passed a kilometre stone with '12' on it; the numbers were decreasing so it's safe to say the mound was between the stones marked '12' and '13', which might help anyone else trying to find the place. We shortly passed through the small village Atuncolla. There were no more hills or mounds of any kind on the right of the road so I am pretty sure I must have found the right one.
I was very happy to have found it. I did my best in my faltering Spanish to explain the story to my taxi driver who seemed genuinely interested. I was not expecting anything to 'happen' there, not that this detracts from David's story at all; I was simply glad to have found the site of an event I have heard David describe several times over the couple of years I have been following his story.
Anyway, hopefully this post will help anyone else interested in finding the place to do so!

On the way to Puno (where I am now) from Cusco I happened to look out of the window of the bus and noticed a huge kilometre stone with '1111' on it. I thought it might be a mistake but they continued, '1112', '1113', etc.
I also keep seeing my age; I'm 43. I see that number everywhere. I was looking at a video on YouTube and one of the suggestions, a clip about disclosure, had 434343 views. Another time recently I saw a video with 111143 views.
It all makes sense when you combine the Many Worlds Interpretation (MWI) of quantum physics with the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) Project; the former says that all possible 'realities' exist at the same time, the latter that we influence which version of 'reality' we get to see.
I put 'reality' in quotes there because I find myself more and more inclined not to take that idea very seriously, along the lines of that excellent film 'Leap'; I'd link to it but the handy YouTube version seems to have been pulled
When you think about it, if everything you can imagine is simultaneously true, which is what MWI basically says, then you might as well take the position that 'reality' is an illusion, and that this is no different from a dream.
I guess if you realise that it becomes a lucid dream, so long as we can remember What a trip, eh? Just try to enjoy it I guess!

Wouldn't mind seeing a photo of this, apprently there is one on the web somewhere, david talks of seeing it in a recent interview.

"Time isn't precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time but the one point that is out of time: the Now. That is precious indeed. The more you are focused on time—past and future—the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is." - Eckhart Tolle

I found the stone circle...
Right Icke fans! Here it is.. i found the actual mound and stone circle following the instructions as above posts and spent a few hours there and took lots of pics.. so I can confirm this is the spot! doesnt look super impressive from the pics but the place definitely has a noticeable calm energy when you stand or sit in the middle and after 5 mins i felt/heard a deep humming/vibration in my body.
Photo above is me doing my Icke awakening impression
This is how I got there and found it...
On the first day I booked a tour from Puno to Sillustani for 35 soles (thats the standard price from all tour operators so if they try to charge you more then tell them you know this is the price!).. they will pick you up from your hostel/hotel.. most tours start at 2pm.. we drove to Sillustani.. about 25 min drive and then went around the Chulpas and listened to the guides official version of the place which is complete rubbish im sorry to say.. tries to tell you that they were burial chambers.. yes mummies were found there but they were from incas not the origonal builders.. it becomes clear from the construction that the same builders built the origonal structures in Cusco and Pisac and parts of Machu Pichu and Tiwanaku.. using unknown technology.. huge stones fit perfectly together with not a hairs width in between and no mortar plus the same unusual knobs on some of the smooth outer faces of the blocks..
So anyway I had time to escape the tour party for a while and sneek inside two of the chupas for a quick meditation.. was well worth it.. there are guards around and its forbidden to enter the chulpas but in a few spots you can do so out of sight.
I also looked around the hills and mounds and saw the most likely place Ickes stone circle was located approximately. Due to time constraints and because the sun was low and getting cold already by 5pm i decided i would come back the next day via local transport to find the spot.
As it turned out transport from the main road to Sillustani is a bit slim so I decided to hire a bicycle from the hostel (Inkas Rest, nice hostal)
This turned out to be an ordeal and a half.. the distance was more than it looked from the tour and was about 45 kms.. getting up and out of Puno was mostly pushing due to the high altitude, once out of the city it is a nice downhill slope and then flat long straight roads... but the sun was beating down and many huge trucks and buses to avoid so I wouldnt recommend biking.
So anyway to find the spot the easiest way is once your through the town Atuncolla on your way to Sillustani you go up a small hill and then it flattens out and you reach an intersection of sorts where you see this sign...
Basically you can look down the road from here and see the chulpas of sillustani in the distance about 1.5 kms away.. here if you look to the left side of the road there is a small hill/mound which is quite close to the road.. this is it! you just walk up it and bingo your there!
I went maybe 200m down the road further towards sillustani so I could hide my bike by the pipe that goes under the road.
and from here the hill on your left looks like this...
As Icke says you cant see anything from the road but as you get closer you see the construction of a small tower like so
which is just behind the circle as described by the other traveller on this thread...
heres a view of the stone circle from next to the small tower...
..as i said it doesnt look like much in the photos but when your there it just feels right.. the stones are about knee to waist height as described by icke and they certainly look like they have been there a long time.. plus there are a number of perfectly square carved stones which are also very hard.. which suggest a long time back this circular flat area on the top of this mound once had a more ancient structure there.. the small tower is also made out of some of these stones plus more rough inca style stones...
Ive left a little treat for the next visitor to the site under the rock which is closest to the centre of the circle where i sat and meditated.
It contains a double plastic bag with some white sage for burning and saging yourself, some coca leaves to chew and also leave an offering (3 leaves placed in the tower alcove if you wish)...
and about 7 dried Huachuma chips for you to eat while you meditate and take in the surroundings.. this will help you to feel the energy and appreciate the place and tune in to any messages you might get from pachamama or your higherself.
The Huachuma is the local name for San Pedro cactus.. its totally legal and this dose is a very mild meditative dose but enough to feel the effects.. can take 30 mins to be felt and then stronger after 1 hour but its very mild
Enjoy... mucho gusto!
I am really glad I found this place, was able to take some photos to help others find the place.. and I may go back there on my way back to Peru in 2-3 weeks and im tempted to pitch a tent in the circle and spend the night there as its so peaceful and safe there..
As i discovered you could quite easily hitch hike or take a collectivo from the main road or just get a tour bus to drop you off at the llungo sign and then get them to pick you up on the way out or just walk to sillustani and re-join the tour there.. good luck!

All the knowledge of our ancestors over this world.
Even though when you go there it does not look like much, but the history at some of those places must have been immense, as humans across the ages found these sites. Imagine how humans found those sites, and without knowledge of others. All over the world peoples everywhere came to the same conclusions about these places, and methods to what to do in them. Amazing how it worked.
It looks so peaceful out there.

Well, who knows. You can imagine David was confused and the circle we found was the one. However there is a more fundamental message in all this I posit. Take a couple of deep breaths, relax, shut your eyes and meditate for a few minutes if you feel you have the patience, then watch this...
GOD: Do not try and find the stone circle. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
you: What truth?
GOD: There is no stone circle.
you: There is no stone circle?
GOD: Then you'll see, that it is not the stone circle that is found, it is only yourself.
This situation is rather wonderful. It was difficult to find that stone circle and, whatever anyone else now says, it is easy to imagine that it could be the original circle David found and that he was frustrated when he couldn't locate it again so he concluded that the stones must have been taken away.
Then again the circle you and I visited could have been the wrong circle. Right now, from your perspective, and mine, both possibilities are simultaneously present in our minds. We could do more research e.g. get hold of the video David made at the site he now says is where the original stone circle was, et cetera, but we can still now never know...
Good! We can use this as an example of something important. We never really know anything. For example, let's do this thought experiment:
1. [Note this is fantasy; I do not 'believe' this is what happened ]David couldn't find the circle. He had all these people with him who'd paid loads of money to come to Peru with him. He panicked then made something up about the stones having been removed.Now let's do another:
2. David found the site of the original circle. What you and I found is something else. David never went there.I posit that the whole situation is Schrödinger's cat. Both possibilities are there, we can never be sure what actually happened, at least not completely sure. For example, however objectionable anyone might feel 1. there is, only David can know for sure. And then there is the possibility, however unlikely, that he might actually now 'believe' the circle was at the spot he revisited a year or two ago when, in 'fact', it was at the place we found
Everything is like this. There is no 'truth'. It's all Schrödinger's cat. If this is not obvious then take this a step at a time. Can you see that both possibilities 1. and 2. exist for us now? Can you see that this makes the situation like that of Schrödinger's cat? Now can you see that, as we never actually know anything for sure, everything is, in 'fact' (ha!), like this, and therefore all there are are probabilities, and that even these are subjective, and mutable?
I'd love to hear what you think

It spoke to him, didn't it? It's quite an account. Maybe you should have done an interview with the mound, Ponzo:
PONZO: What message do you have for the DIF members?
MOUND: Walk the talk or shut the @!$% up!
PONZO: Thank you, Mound.
This state of affairs is caused by a lack of knowledge of self.

Was it 'the' mound? Is there a 'the' mound? Is there an anything?
I had a synchronicity after posting here; if anyone is interested watch this:
Now I am wondering if I should have put the and the other way 'round...
Oh, and I know, to be in Japanese is 'aru' rather than 'are' (in case anyone was paying attention in that video!)

Great thread
I've always been interested in Icke's story about this place. I've tried to pinpoint it on Google Earth but the places you've mentioned - Sillustani and Atuncolla - look like an urban sprawl. Can you find it on Google Earth?

Savannah High defensive end Qua'Ron Hilliard has verbally committed to Savannah State University. Hilliard is a 6'5″, 240 lineman on both sides of the ball for the Blue Jackets. The Tigers recruited him for the defensive side.
"He's a big, athletic kid that can control the end… keep the play in the middle." says SHS head coach Tim Jordan. "He's got a great opportunity to play at home… and besides his coach went there," teases Jordan, who played at Savannah State College.
Jordan says Hilliard is closer to 250 and if he can put on some more weight he could be a force on the outside.
Early this week Jordan confirms Jamal Norman verbally committed to Savannah State University for basketball. (First reported by Dennis Knight of the Savannah Morning News). Jordan says the Tigers are also interested in Norman to possibly play football.

article and photos by Charly Mann
I have become enamored with observing perhaps the most beautiful and least studied bird in the world – the Painted Bunting. As its population declines and it remains especially elusive because it spends most of its time high in densely leaved trees, thickets, hedgerows, or submerged in thick ground cover, I have been focused on getting close to, and discovering, as much as I can about their lives in their natural habitat in Oklahoma.

Male Painted Bunting moments after landing in open area before flattening himself in first step of mating ritual
The most amazing thing I have witnessed with these unique birds is their mating ritual. It is almost as astounding as the courtship dance of the Birds of paradise which are found in the rainforests of Indonesia and New Guinea, yet is much more rare to be seen in its entirety. In fact I found dozens of videos of the extravagant dance of various species of birds of paradise on the Internet, but I could find none of the Painted Bunting. Luckily I have witnessed and photographed the elaborate and colorful mating ceremony of the Painted Bunting which I will describe and share photos of in this article.

Female Painted Bunting arriving after hearing male's mating sounds
The first step in the union is the return of the brightly colored male Painted Buntings from their wintering grounds along the east coast of Mexico and Panama to Oklahoma in mid to late April. They usually come back to the same area they lived in the year before. Each male claims an area of about three acres which he bravely defends against other males.

Painted Bunting couple beginning their mating dance
The majority of female Painted Buntings return to their nesting grounds in Oklahoma in mid-May. When they arrive the males are anxious to begin courting their potential mates. In some areas there are two or more females for each male, but in others where there are no females a male will invade another male's territory looking for a partner. This usually results in fierce battles between the defender and the invader male Painted Bunting.
The mating ceremony begins when a male flies down from the forest canopy onto a clear flat area of at least ten feet by ten feet. He then almost disappears into the ground as he flattens himself by compressing his torso and spreading out his wings and tail. As he does this he begins making a pulsating sound that inspires a female bunting to come out into the open and land within five feet of him.
At this time the male raises himself slightly off the ground and points his head directly at the sky and begins proudly crouching toward the female without ever looking directly at her. This performance so enraptures the female that she raises both her head and rump at a 45-degree angle signaling to the male that his theatrics are beginning to turn her on.

Next the female hurriedly rushes toward her approaching partner until she abruptly stops right before colliding. The male's head is still at a 90-degree angle, while the female's head is positioned directly over the male's neck. This has all been beautifully choreographed and now the love dance gets more serious.

The male and female end the first phase of their mating dance with this pose
The male now comes up from his crouch and brings his head down and turned to the right like a tango dancer. He then gracefully dances more than a foot away from the female. At the same time the female moves forward by a few steps and lifts her rear even higher.

The second part of the mating dance has the male and female rhythmically moving apart and together again
Abruptly now the male becomes fully upright raising his tail and extending his feathers into a red, green, and blue fan that almost immediately starts flapping rapidly as he moves toward the backside of the female. At the same time the female's cloaca swells and protrudes outside her body. The male then rhythmically bobs and weaves closer with his feathers vibrating until he raised himself about two inches in the air and mounts himself on the female for about twenty seconds of joyous copulation. After witnessing this event I knew I had seen something remarkable that I would probably never see again.

The final act of the mating dance
In the last six years there has been a large decline in painted buntings population. One key factor for this has been the rise of wind turbine farms that can decimate migrating bird populations. Another key factor is that the beautiful males are being captured by the thousands in Mexico every year and shipped to Europe where they are sold as pets. The painted bunting is perhaps too beautiful to survive much longer in the wild.

The Carolina Chickadee was actually named by James Audubon (1785-1851) the United States most important wildlife artist.
Carolina Chickadee close-up showing his acrobatic skill
The Carolina Chickadee has a black cap, throat, and back, with gray wings and a white underside. They are a very small bird, only 5 inches long.
Carolina Chickadees build their nests in trees. They actually can dig out holes in trees that have a soft area weakened by termites or a fungus, but usually choose an abandoned woodpecker hole or a natural cavity in a tree.

Some Carolina Chickadees have lived more than 10 years.
Chickadees are great acrobats and can eat upside down. They primarily feed on insects and seeds, and are hunted by hawks and owls.
New-born Chickadee learning to walk across a narrow branch
Chickadees are very territorial birds, and there are three separate small groups of trees in northeast Oklahoma where I find these creatures almost every month of the year.
My little Carolina Chickadee
The most famous expression of the comedian W.C. Fields was "my little chickadee," which was also the title of the movie he starred in with Mae West in 1940. Mae West wrote the script for the movie, so should be credited with creating the expression.

While the Painted Bunting can be found throughout Oklahoma and many other southern states, seeing one up close is a rare sight. Painted Buntings, like most other birds, usually make their home in the same area every year, and we have found four of five places of less than 20 acres near Bartlesville where we regularly first hear and then see them. We would love it if you would provide us with the location that you see these beautiful birds. Their population seems to be in decline, and there are several areas where we use to regularly find them that no longer have any of these birds.
This is our first post in Oklahoma Birds and Butterflies in over a year. We are taking more great bird and butterfly photos that ever, and have moved up from a 400mm to a 600mm lens, but just have not found the time to add more articles and pictures.

Orchard Orioles are one of the most distinctive and elusive birds in Oklahoma. Even though they often live close to open fields, they spend most of their time in nearby trees or near the ground strategically hidden in tall grass. I often catch glimpses of these birds, but they usually quickly disappear into a tree or dense vegetation before I can get close enough to take a photograph.
Orchard Oriole in late May 2009 outside of Bartlesville
Male Orchard Orioles have bluish a black head, back wings, and back. Most of the rest of their body is a vibrant chestnut brown. Their feathers are edged with white, and they have a thin white wing bar. Female Orchard Orioles look very different from males. They are olive-green on top, and greenish yellow below. They have light brownish wings with two white wing bars. Females are often hard to distinguish from several other species of similar looking birds including warblers.
Female Orchard Oriole from July 1010. Sitting next to her on this fence were three of her newborn.
Orchard Orioles are the smallest oriole in North America measuring only 6 inches in length.

Orchard Orioles primarily eat grasshoppers crickets, beetles, and spiders, but also enjoy seeds and flower nectar.
Male Orchard Oriole looking for insects
Orchard Orioles are only temporary visitors to North America. They live most of the year, from August through April in Central America and northwestern South America. They migrate at night, and part of their journey requires them to cross over the Gulf of Mexico.

Perhaps no bird is easier to recognize than the all-black American Crow. They are a common sight throughout Oklahoma. I often see them in trees, fields, and even my local Wal-Mart parking lot. They usually feed on the ground and will eat almost anything including garbage, insects, seeds, frogs, carrion, and fruit.
American Crow in Bartlesville field having an early breakfast
American Crows are very social animals and are usually found in groups.
The American Crow's most common call is its loud "caw caw", but they can also mimic the voices of other animals including humans. I have heard several crows say "Hello", and one very clearly saying "I want to fly". It is illegal to keep crows as pets, but they are very trainable, loyal, curious, fearless, and highly intelligent, and people who have raised them say they are great companions though they do not like being placed in a cage. It is actually not uncommon for a wild crow to become comfortable enough with a human that a lifelong bond of friendship is formed. In many of these cases the crow will come in the person's house for food and visit, and wait on a particular tree in the morning to greet their friend when they come outside.
American Crows store excess food and can sometimes be seen burying it on the ground or hiding it in a tree hole.
This American Crow greeted me with a "caw caw caw" as I approached to photograph him
One American Crow lived almost 30 years, and many live longer than a decade.
American Crows are all black, even their legs and bill, but when they molt, their old feathers often look brown. Males and females look identical.

I have been enjoying the outdoors of Oklahoma for many years and have found that many birds return to the same area every year. There is a Mississippi Kite that loves to perch on the same branch of the same tree every Spring and Summer. As we have become more familiar with one another he actually lets me come within 20 feet without feeling threatened or disturbed. This is a good thing because these birds are very protective and will often swoop down and attack people they feel are potential threats. They are a very quiet bird and rarely make a sound except when frightened.
Mississippi Kite perching on his favorite spot in northeast Oklahoma
Even though Mississippi Kites often live in colonies, I have only once seen another Kite within even a quarter mile of this one's roost. In the wild Misssippi Kites often live 10 years.
Mississippi Kite staring at me as I come very close to his lookout
The Mississippi Kite is a raptor like a hawk or falcon. Their wingspan is three feet long and they are typically a foot and half long at maturity. They have dark red eyes with a light grey head that appears to be white in bright sun. The rest of their body is battleship grey and their wing feathers are black.
This Mississippi Kite has just spotted a meal and is about to take to the air
Despite their size Mississippi Kites rarely weigh more than 12 ounces which makes their bodies especially buoyant as they glide through the air capturing insects. It is not unusual for them to stay aloft looking for prey for several hours at a time. Besides insects they sometimes eat rodents, lizards, frogs, snakes, and even fish that reside in shallow water. Farmers like these birds because they especially love eating grasshoppers and cicadas, both of which they capture in the air.
Mississippi Kites have one of the longest migrations of any bird. They spend the Fall and Winter in South America as far down as Argentina and then return in late April or May to the central part of the United States, usually no further north than where I live in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. That is a distance of about 5,500 miles in each direction.
From the age of seven I have been enchanted with the idea of living happily ever after, and have made it a life quest to find that answer. I have spoken to hundreds of people – usually older and wiser than me, and read countless books and articles on the subject. In my website Uplifting Visions I share what I consider the best insights I have learned about achieving happiness in life.

Dream Interpretation
Need Dreams Interpreted? Ask a Dream Interpreter ASAP
The dream would have a symbolic meaning that pertains to your life at the moment.
Having observed a cat that went into the water and swam, can be seen as your ability to face challenging situations at this time in your life. Even if there may be some risk/danger involved, you're open to exploring new territories and making it through. Here the swim or drawn analogy can apply. In order to move onward, you have to "get your feet wet."
The fact that the cat seemed willing to go in despite the water being cold, indicates that you're up for the challenge and ready to do whatever it takes to either resolve a situation or get one of an unhealthy one. You're open to do whatever it takes now.

Did Yoo In Na Time Her Departure from 'One Night'?
Did Yoo In Na know something like this would happen? She just barely managed to avoid reporting on herself by leaving the MC spot of SBS' One Night of TV Entertainment just in time.
Yoo In Na left One Night of TV Entertainment with her last episode on June 4. She thus managed to avoid the awkward situation of having to talk or be interviewed live at the scene as the reporter and subject of the scandal.
In the past, Hyun Young wasn't as fortunate when she served as the MC for MBC's Section TV Entertainment Relay, and supermodel MC Lee Sora had also been caught in a similar situation.
It seems Yoo In Na timed her departure perfectly compared to these past prime examples. Seo Kyung Seok, who was her co-MC on the show, even showed what a close call she made when he had to report on his wife giving birth to his child on his last day.
On June 7, Ji Hyun Woo made big issues for confessing to Yoo In Na during a fanmeeting for tvN's Queen In Hyun's Man. Yoo In Na, who had showed she was thoroughly taken aback at the incident at the scene, has not made any official statements as of yet.

Music without singing and solos. That's how Couch labelled themselves on their first album. Music made by guitar, bass guitar and drums. Founded in Munich. Released on the Weilheim-based label Kollaps. That was in 1995. At dawn of postrock and indietronics. And maybe Couch also took a short glance to Chicago, listening to Shellac or Tortoise. But actually the band has taken their seats in their very own living room a long time ago. A place where the paradigms postrock, jazz or electronica were written on the walls only by visitors. By music critics, for instance.
Music without singing and solos. Reduced to the maximum. Despite of all force that the songs of Couch develop, their music is minimal music in its best sense. Purified structures, maybe hymnal but never opulent. Each instrument, each noise, each note stands in its place self-confidently as well as necessarily. The songs by Couch take their omnipresent dynamics from this compositional condensing. On their second album, released in 1998, the band has exposed this way of working self-consciously: "Etwas benutzen" is the name of the record. "using something" would be an appropriate translation. "Using" in the sense of putting components in the service of a whole. In other words: Enough is always better than too much. A likeable balance of abstraction and melody.
That way of working remained their way when with "Fantasy" in 2000 the sound and the band were extended. Michael Heilrath (bass, composition), Jürgen Söder (guitar) and soon Thomas Geltinger (drums) were and are Couch. In addition, Stefanie Böhm (Ms. John Soda) joined the band. And with her a keyboard came into the band-context as well as an energetic indulging in and a new passion for pop and melodies: The heartiness of the rational, so to say; still without any singing and solos.
Since the album "Etwas Benutzen" the Berlin-based label Kitty-Yo was concerned with releases by Couch. With "Fantasy" and the following "Profane" a US-deal with the legendary label Matador was made. Couch became - maybe without wanting it - something like a band of reference. Maybe that is also the reason for the short-term impression of having told enough.
And so the new, fifth Couch record is the first one after a break of nearly five years. And it's the first one on Morr Music. A company that has been in the air already before; because of the musicians - part of the Morr-universe since many years - and the melodies.
Michael Heilrath (bass, guitar) produces and masters music. He was the head of the experimental orchestra "Alles wie groß" and releases electronic music under the pseudonym blond.
Jürgen Söder (guitar) works with music, for instance in his agency "licensing department". Once he played the guitar in the charming band "Schwermut Forrest".
Stefanie Böhm (keyboard, guitar) recorded a first single in 1998 as "Ms. John Soda" and releases under this name on Morr Music as well.
Thomas Geltinger (drums) releases among other band-projects also with "Ms. John Soda" on Morr Music.

Are there any reports on the long term health effects on the use of Botox? Are there any reports that I can read on the long term health effects on the use of Botox for Cervical Dystonia?
Long Term Effects of Botox for Cervical Dystonia?
Doctor Answers 2
Long term effects of Botox
There have been no long term effects of Botox (a type of Botulinum A). The good news is it only lasts 3-4 months. The bad news is it only lasts 3-4 months so it needs to be repeated 3-4 times per year. It is very helpful in cervical dystonia and other diseases with spasms such as blepharospasm. There are some reports of people developing resistance and antibodies to Botox. In these patients they can try Dysport ( a different type of Botulinum A).
Like any drug, there can be adverse effects from Botox
Dear Whoknew
Cervical dystonia is a muscle movement disorder that causes uncontrollable involuntary contraction of the neck muscles. This condition is painful and disabling. Botox and other botulinum toxins are used to successful treat this medical condition. The FDA has approved BOTOX, Dysport, and Myobloc for the treatment of cervical dystonia in adults. The dose needed to treat this condition is roughly ten times the dose used for cosmetic indications. Because the dose is so high, serious although temporary side effects are reported to occur. These include difficulty swallowing, weakness, and breathing issues.
There are have been a handful of deaths associated with botulinum toxin treatment for children with cerebral palsy associated limb spasticity. The issue in treating this children is that the dose of botulinum toxin needed to treat the spasticity is so high relative the weight of the children that the risk of side effects is much higher. However, despite these complications, botulinum toxin continues to be an important treatment option.
So when your cosmetic surgeon now includes information on these potential complications, recognize that none of them have been reported for the small doses used for cosmetic treatment.

text: A-Basin is working hard to reduce the amount of waste that goes to the landfill. Below is a brief outline of our new initiative. NEW for 2014 - A-Basin has partnered with Terracycle to recycle candy wrappers, chip bags, and other packaging items! Look for the clear plastic containers on top of the waste receptacles to see what food packaging items we can recycle. Compost Where? There is one receptacle in the Legend's Cafe in the A-Frame and one at Black Mountain Lodge. Please see a cafeteria attendant if you have trouble finding them. What? All food scraps (including meat, bones, fat, dairy, tea bags, and coffee grounds), Soft Papers (including food basket liners, paper towels, tissues, newspaper, receipts), hot drink cups (not the lids, they are recyclable), A-Basin disposable #7 PLA plastics (including logoed beer cups, pudding containers, parfait containers, fruit cups, and straws) wooden chop sticks and wooden stir sticks. Why? It is the right thing to do! Composting is by far the most environmentally friendly way to dispose of waste. Through decomposition we are able to turn our waste into nutrient rich soil to use for growing healthy, organic food. Recycling Where? Receptacles are available in the A-Frame and Black Mountain Lodge, at the bottom and tops of all lifts, in the base area, and in all parking lots. What? Plastics #1-6 (no bottle caps and please dump out all liquids) aluminum, tin, glass, paper, paperboard, and cardboard. Why? Recycling saves natural resources, conserves energy, and reduces landfill space. Waste Where? Receptacles are available in the A-Frame and Black Mountain Lodge, at the bottom and tops of all lifts, in the base area, and in all parking lots. What? Wrappers (including candy and chips) #7 OTHER plastics or unlabeled plastic, film plastic (including plastic bags, and saran wrap) Why? Contamination can greatly affect the ease of sorting comingled recyclables and when trash is put into the compost it makes it more difficult for compostables to degrade properly. Reuse Where? Black bus tub stations available at all lodges, indoors and out What? All silverware, plates, bowls, Blue Pepsi cups, bar glasses, and green food baskets Why? Reusable items greatly reduce our waste stream. Liquid Where? Dump all liquids into black bus tubes before recycling. What? Juice, soda, Gatorade, soup, water, ice, etc. Why? We pay for trash and recycling by weight. More liquid means higher costs and less accurate waste and recycling data.

Prince George's County rescuers cut escalator open to free stuck boy
TEMPLE HILLS, Md. (WJLA) - On Thursday, Prince George's County rescuers cut an escalator apart to free a young boy whose hands and fingers got stuck under the handrail at the bottom of the moving staircase.
Now, bandages cover the swelling and mangled skin of Jerrin Poyner's tiny hand. Pain medication has left the six-year-old too tuckered to talk about his harrowing ordeal inside Iverson Mall's Burlington Coat Factory.
All four of his fingers were consumed by the handrail of the moving staircase on an escalator Jerrin has ridden before, says his mother Stephanie.
"He was doing like I always tell him to -- holding the rail to come down the escalator," she said. "I guess he was holding too far, and it got caught between the belt return and the metal that encases."
Fortunately, those metal steps slammed to a halt.
"He screamed 'Mommy!' as soon as it happened," said his mother.
"Save me!" was his scream, as customers raced to Stephanie's aid with baby oil, anything to free the crying child.
"One guy lent me his keys, trying to unscrew the screws. They were stripped so I couldn't get the screws out," explained Stephanie.
She claims that throughout the entire ordeal, employees never approached, and as for the store itself, no one said a thing.
Prince George's County Fire had to eventually saw the escalator apart, and then remove part of a wall to get the little boy out. It reportedly took the medics and the firefighters almost three hours to get his hand loose.
The six-year-old was dosed with morphine and raced to a hospital, where doctors found no broken bones. However, it is too early to tell whether there is any nerve damage.
Stephanie says what is now damaged is her confidence in the store – which has still not reached out at all.

Australian Rugby Union boss John O'Neill has dismissed All Blacks coach Steve Hansen's accusation that the Wallabies are stealing New Zealand players as ''insulting'' and ''ill-informed''.
Hansen made the criticism when asked if New Zealand-raised Wallabies fullback Mike Harris's role in Australia's 18-18 draw with the All Blacks at the weekend indicated a problem with New Zealand's talent identification system.
''I am pleased [Harris] has achieved his dream … what I find frustrating is that Australia is trying to build their game and put more franchises in place but all they are doing is putting franchises in place and stealing our players,'' he said.
Australian rugby figures yesterday rounded on the All Blacks coach, pointing to the number of foreign players who had played for New Zealand.
''The comments from the All Blacks coach are insulting, ill-informed, and clearly made without reviewing New Zealand's history for fielding players born outside their borders,'' O'Neill said.
''I would not even want to guess how many players born in the South Pacific islands have worn the All Blacks jersey … The reality is there are players who will look for opportunities to play Test rugby.''
Rebels coach Damien Hill was unapologetic about his role in luring New Zealand-raised talent to Melbourne. As Australia's youngest Super Rugby franchise, the Rebels will be allowed up to 10 foreign players on their roster next season, with that number falling to six and then four over the next three years.
Hill has recruited four New Zealand players for next year, including rising Wellington player Jason Woodward, Otago back-rower Scott Fuglistaller, Auckland prop Pauliasi Manu, and New Zealand-raised Pat Leafa, who played in the Canberra club competition last year.
''I think [playing depth] is a fantastic attribute of New Zealand and no doubt it's the reason they're the current world champions … but if the opportunities arise you can't begrudge the player for taking it.'' Hill said.

You can get a thin hand-size cam (e.g. #1 Camalot) in the horizontal break before the first bolt, but a ground anchor is strongly recommended for the belayer regardless.
I replaced the 2nd bolt on this route this spring--it was a good bolt with a bad thin SMC hanger, but since the head of the bolt was damaged I had to drill a new bolt and chop the old.

Cape Town -
Mmusi Maimane, the DA's national spokesman and one of three deputy federal chairpersons, may be elected the DA's parliamentary leader at the first party caucus on May 29.
But this could be a blow, rather than a boon, for the party.
He was the face of a reportedly R100 million election campaign as the DA's Gauteng premier candidate. Now, some party insiders believe, Maimane's move to Cape Town could be a setback for the DA in Gauteng just when it has gained significant support there.
However, Maimane dismissed this on Monday. "I'm committed to building the brand DA. If I can continue to build the profile in Parliament, that's not to the detriment of the people of Gauteng," he told the Cape Argus.
As a Gauteng MP, he would retain a relationship with the province for the 2016 municipal elections. Being the national spokesman from Parliament would also help build the party.
"We competed in Gauteng on the economy, on jobs really, and economic policy is contested in Parliament. I felt I could do the job and serve the party well in Parliament."
He said he had not been promised the DA parliamentary leader's job, which Lindiwe Mazibuko quit over the weekend to study in the US.
"Nobody can offer that (position)", Maimane said, but he would consider the post if nominated.
Over the next two and a half weeks, DA MPs are expected to discuss who should fill the positions of parliamentary leader and chief whip – previously held by the retired Watty Watson. The matter will come to a vote at the May 29 inaugural parliamentary caucus meeting.
But the party could find itself in a pickle. Aside from Maimane, it is argued in some circles, there were no immediately obvious candidates among the now 89-strong caucus, even if many were experienced MPs and carried clout in party structures.
Parliamentary leader is a tricky position, which requires more than being steeped in DA rhetoric and liberal traditions, and this is particularly so when the DA actively wants to diversify its leadership ranks.
Athol Trollip, former parliamentary leader from 2009, discovered this when he lost to Mazibuko in late 2011 on the back of a concerted campaign by to so-called Young Turks.
Some analysts argue that the DA is promoting a certain profile of black leader, pushing aside potential leaders from a rural background in favour of those from an urban background, or favouring a middle-class background over a working-class one.
While DA leadership ranks have significantly diversified, questions still emerge over the party's ability to handle succession. This will be under scrutiny next year, when the DA holds its next congress, at which Zille is expected to stand aside. In 2012 she indicated to the party congress that this term would be her last.
Maimane's departure from Gauteng also opens the door for a contest there as he vacates his position as Joburg city council DA caucus leader.
His departure from Gauteng may cost the party its campaigning face, especially since the DA, like the ANC, has vowed to start campaigning immediately for the 2016 municipal poll.
The ANC received a bloody nose in Gauteng: overall its support dropped to just over 53 percent from just over 64 percent in 2009, and the DA gained in all three Gauteng metros.

A record number of bestsellers helped to boost revenue at Kensington Publishing 17%, to an estimated $58 million, in the fiscal year ended September 30. Among those who hit the bestseller lists this year were Fern Michaels and Lisa Jackson, two authors that Kensington publisher Steve Zacharius said the company has been building for several years. Those efforts paid off in 2006, as Jackson's mass market original Fatal Burn has more than one million copies in print and her hardcover Shiver has 259,000 copies in print. Michaels's Fool Me Once has over 110,000 copies in print in hardcover. The surprise bestseller in the year was Maddox's Alphabet of Manliness, which has 190,000 copies in print in hardcover.
During the year, Kensington cut the output of its mass market line 11%, to about 400 titles, but sales rose 6%, which Zacharius attributed to strong sell-through and low returns. The trade paperback segment was the fastest growing in the year, at 14%, while hardcover sales grew 4%. Sales to all market channels were up solidly, although sales of the company's four book clubs have been down. The company continues to test new clubs, but Zacharius did not sound optimistic about launching new ones. "It's too easy to order books online," he explained.
Fiscal 2007 has had a good start and Zacharius is anticipating another solid year, helped in part by new technologies. Kensington is expanding its e-book offerings; although sales are "very small, they're growing," Zacharius said. He is expecting a greater contribution from Kensington's use of print-on-demand, estimating that POD sales could reach $750,000 this year. "That's found money," Zacharius said. Kensington is creating its own digital archive to facilitate its involvement in POD and other new digital platforms. On the more traditional front, Zacharius said Kensington will announce three new co-ventures early in 2007. The company is also aggressively looking for acquisitions and has hired legendary M&A guru Martin Levin to help in the search.

Big Pine Key residents might take a double look when they see the latest transportation option tooling around the island.
On July 14, Kim Gabel, the horticulture agent for the Monroe County Cooperative Extension Service, purchased one of the first three ELF bicycles sold in Florida from the Durham, N.C., company Organic Transit.
The combination pedal-"solar assist" bicycle, which has an enclosed frame including a windshield, has just gone on the market. Gabel says the other two in Florida were bought in Gainesville and in Palm Coast, just north of Daytona Beach.
"I've been a recumbent triker for some five years now," Gabel said. "A lot of recumbents are two-wheel bikes. I know I like to ride bikes but I just can't stay on a two-wheel anymore because it's a pain on your butt, your legs."
Recumbent bicycles are low-sitting two-wheeled bikes that have a lounge-chair type of seat in the back and the pedals way up front. The ELF trike has two wheels up front, one in the back.
Gabel says the ELF can travel 20 mph and go 20 miles on a full charge. Organic Transit says on its website that "each OTV can go for 1,800 miles on the energy equivalent of one gallon of gasoline."
"It all depends on whether you're pedaling, not pedaling, the battery charge, if you have the lights on, the turn signal on," Gabel said.
The base price is $5,000. But this is no ordinary bicycle.
It has disc brakes, turn signals, a headlight, side mirrors, tail lights and, according to Organic Transit, "spacious interiors that keep you out of the elements and in view of other drivers."
The shell is made from polycarbonate that allows you to "carry several bags of groceries or other items in the ample cargo space."
Can you ride it on the road, especially on Big Pine, where the speed limit is 25 mph on much of the island? "It's considered a bike so you ride it on the bike path," Gabel said.


text: At noon on Jan. 15, New Mexico's legislative session opens for business. Each year, the Legislature alternates between 30-day "budget-only" sessions and 60-day general sessions, at which pretty much anything and everything is up for debate. This year's 60-day session is sure to be an exciting one—not only because the Democrat-controlled state House and Senate will once again face off against Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, but also because close to one-third of all state lawmakers are brand-new, fresh off a heated election cycle. With two months of committee meetings, floor hearings and exciting (seriously!) debate, it's your perfect chance to get involved, even if you don't know the first thing about how a bill becomes a law. So read up: With our "Dummiez" guide (yes, we know it's spelled wrong; it's a copyright thing), you'll learn to legislate, lobby and lounge around like a pro.

Smoking and Tobacco
Throwing up
I throw up every day after taking the medication. will this stop? I really thought it was working on the test kit. Now on the 2nd month it must be stronger. It can`t help me if I vomit it out although I think it makes it to my blood stream first. It takes an hour or more to have an urge to vomit instantly. Just once every day. Help , I want to quit.
There is no mention of the name of the drug, but I presume you are talking about Varenicline (Chantix), the new medication to help with smoking cessation. About one in three people who use this drug have some feeling of nausea the first week or two. Almost everyone gets over that and continues the medicine, but three in a hundred people have to stop taking Chantix because of nausea, headache or vomiting.I think it's odd that it started with the second month, the "continuation pak." Generally by the second month people are doing much better and well adjusted to the medicine. Frankly, it makes me wonder about that "pak." I might take it back to your pharmacist for a discussion.A couple of other suggestions: make certain that something else isn't going on. Are you taking other medicines or new foods? Could you be pregnant? (if so stop the medicine). The manufacturer recommends you take the medicine with food and a full eight ounces of water. Finally, if nothing else works, see your doctor. He or she may prescribe an anti-nausea pill to take an hour or so before the medicine.Hang in there. Good luck.

The Skagit Valley Food Co-op, Mount Vernon, Wash., offers some local produce — like sprouts and mushrooms — year-round.
More seasonal fare like spinach and radishes pop up in April, and the season runs into the fall with pumpkins in October. Storage crops, such as apples, last into July.
"We have people coming in here asking for local items before they're even available," said Heidi Hartford, a produce stocker at the coop. "Any time we can get local, we do. We carry as much local as possible."
Hartford said the coop meets with local growers every fall to plan for the coming year. She said demand for local product continues to grow.
"I think it's common sense," she said. "We're in an area where produce is accessible, and a lot of people want to do what's best for themselves and eat well. When you factor in that it's good for local farmers and the community, it all adds up. It's a trend that's not going out of style any time soon."
Dean Cunningham, vice president of Washington Lettuce & Vegetable Co., Mount Vernon, said high diesel prices likely will continue to fuel the trend of buyers looking for local product.
"It's just unbelievable," he said. "Freight is a huge factor in our business."
Sales manager Dale Hayton said Valley Pride Sales Inc., Mount Vernon, Wash., has good volumes of raspberries, blackberries, broccoli and cauliflower, but the vast majority of the products end up in the hands of buyers in the Pacific Northwest.
However, he said being local isn't good enough.
"It's not like just because it's local it sells," he said. "You still have to have the right product and the right quality. If you do that, they're more than happy to purchase local."
Cunningham said the majority of retailers in the region do a good job of promoting local product.
"They jump right in as soon as it's available," he said," and we appreciate it like you wouldn't believe."
