DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
Just wondering if these can affect supply more than a good-fitting nursing bra that has cups.
I am having similar trouble as another mama on here. for me many times it has seemed that the trouble is when I am wearing a nursing tank. I usually wear one every day it just seems by the end of the day my milk supply is so low.
I don;t know if it is when I am tired (I was up several times during the night last night with baby - then no rest today really. i tend to just plow ahead full steam until evening.
Or if it is just him what he will do has been going on for a few months at least:
he cries and pulls off because he doesn't want to wait for let down and even if he gets that far he wants to nurse for much longer than the milk lasts. He ends up screaming in frustration
He will take a paci after the feeding which helps a lot and gets him to burp.
Last night he was extremely upset around 1:25am and he had just been up @ 11:00 before that to eat. I could not get him to go back to sleep so ended up sleeing in the rocking chair holding him for an hour while we both slept.
Is this just his growth spurt? With my other kiddos i always had plenty of milk so they could just keep eating all evening long. it took some work on their part but each time i woudl feed i was able to get a small let-down, even it it were 20 mins. later.
with this baby i really have to work at it! And he doesnt seem willing to keep trying. So sometimes there is just no let down and i have to put the paci in and try to get him to go back to sleep for a bit so my body can catch up. Sometimes I get the feeding to work. Sometimes it is me, and when i relax and put it away, then the milk finally flows and he can get some.
I don know what to do. this is my 4th baby to nurse. with my others i was able to nurse until at least 12mos. This one is so confusing!!

Re: DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
How old is your baby?
Most women's supply is lowest in the evening, so that's normal. My kids would cluster nurse like crazy in the evening when they were very little and I'd think there was no way they were getting anything since they'd been nursing for hours already, and then once in a while one of them would spit up enormous amounts and it was clear that there was plenty of milk. You don't have to have full-feeling breasts to have milk--they are the factories, not just storage spaces, so they are making milk at the very moment that it's being removed from the breast.
A lot of times babies just want to suckle and are actually frustrated that milk keeps coming out, so they pull off and fuss at the breast. My DD never took a pacifier, so she was much worse about that. Even my DS, who loves a pacifier, sometimes wants the breast, not the pacifier, and not the milk.
Is your nursing tank really tight? It would be more likely, IMO, that you'd be getting plugged ducts from a too-tight bra/tank than that it would be reducing your supply, absent other factors that would reduce supply (hormonal issues, not nursing baby enough).

Re: DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
He wil be 7 mos. on Monday.
hmm. just the band is rather right but the top part there is plenty of room. I am very small chested. I guess i can experiment and see. So maybe he is just tired at night. teething probably. Won't nurse, won't be rocked, wont lay down. the bouncy seat still works as long as he doesn't get woken up. - meaning he will fall asleep in that, and then in the middle of the night if he wakes on his own that is much better.
It must be teeth. he fussed this morning AFTER eating, so tired, but not wanting to lay with me, etc.
just when it happens at night i am convinced I need to go get some formula. But we have tried some frozen EBM and he just chews on the bottle.

I wear nursing tanks pretty much every day and have not noticed any difference in supply from when I wear a nursing bra

Re: DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
I haven't worn a bra for about 9 years! I live in my nursing tanks! No supply issues at all, except over supply! In the evening, I can tell it's lower, but not like the kid isn't getting milk though!

Re: DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
We went through a similar phase at 5-6 months. She would get so fussy and frustrated in the evening. What helped was putting her to bed earlier (I think part of it was being overtired), and cluster nursing before bed. Like after dinner I'd nurse her every 20 min. That might help get your evening supply up. Oh, and nursing her sitting up, instead of laying down with her (we cosleep) helped. Not sure if it was the position? But that seemed to help my baby.
Good luck!
(I wear nursing tanks too. Haven't noticed a difference with supply)

Re: DO Nursing Tanks Affect Supply?
That helps ladies! It must just be me, i just notice on certain days I guess!
I did find this, which is pretty obvious but if the band is tight on the tank, this would also apply. The tank is pretty tight but not in the cups because i am small chested to begin with..
Bras should securely support but not bind under the breast. Constricting the breast could affect milk flow.
Breasts continually change in both shape and size throughout pregnancy. Choose a bra with a roomy cup design so that the breasts can expand once your milk comes in.

MOSELLE, MS (WDAM) - A Moselle man who was at risk of losing his home after Monday night's flooding has made the decision to move out of his home.
Bruce Frazier's home on Turtle Bluff Road was 15 feet from the Leaf River until what he described as an eddy hole washed away a majority of his property's foundation.
Frazier was waiting approval for a permit by the CORPS of engineers Monday before the flooding in hopes of packing more dirt under the house.
Frazier said he was worried that Monday night's flooding could cause his home to collapse.
"I mean, I filled it twice and the core engineers cant do anything about it," said Frazier. "I'm in touch with FEMA now, but it's not just affecting me it's gonna affect that neighbor there and this neighbor here and it's getting her house too, but they won't help you."
Frazier plans on using two bulldozers to move his house further into his property.

In Trouble and Paying Out
Financially Sick Firms Often Grant Bonuses in Months Before Bankruptcy Filing
Hostess Brands Inc. is closing after a recent standoff with its striking bakers union. But relations between the Twinkie maker and workers were poisoned months ago amid disclosures that Hostess executives received pay raises not long before seeking bankruptcy protection.
Hostess's bankruptcy judge said during a hearing Thursday that the payments "will definitely be looked at" as he approved the company's request to start liquidating and lay off more than 18,000 employees....

Is Operation Payback A Crime... Or Just The Modern Equivalent Of A Sit In?
from the ddos-the-student-center,-man dept
I don't think that their attacks are necessarily illegal or immoral. As long as they don't break into other people's computers, launching DDoS should not be treated as a crime by default; we have to think about the particular circumstances in which such attacks are launched and their targets. I like to think of DDoS as equivalents of sit-ins: both aim at briefly disrupting a service or an institution in order to make a point. As long as we don't criminalize all sit-ins, I don't think we should aim at criminalizing all DDoS.That's part of a larger post, where he worries that the government will overreact to these forms of attacks and use it to try to get greater oversight over the internet, and force less anonymity online. Of course, I would imagine that any such attempt to do so would backfire, and simply drive forward efforts to create more truly distributed and underground connections.
Later, Morozov notes that, in Germany at least, courts have said that activism-driven DDoS's are, in fact, the equivalent of a sit-in.
I can see both sides of this argument. Of course, you can also argue that a basic sit-in is a form of trespassing, and thus against the law, but we tend to tolerate it for the most part. But, like many sit-ins, I think the bigger issue is that I'm not convinced these DDoS attacks are even remotely effective. Do they get attention? Yes, absolutely. Especially the attacks on Visa and MasterCard. But will it actually do anything productive? That's not clear. It might make some companies think twice before doing certain things, but I'm not sure it will really matter that much.
The longer term effects may be more damaging. I'm not convinced the government would actually be able to successfully crack down via any attempt to get greater oversight on internet usage, but I think that there is the potential that these forms of attacks will backfire and could make people take the real issues behind censorship and online freedom less seriously, as they're associated with what's viewed as a sort of immature and sophomoric approach to the discussion.

The Oakland Running Festival is comprised of 5 events: Full Marathon, Half Marathon, 4-Person Relay, 5K and Kids Fun Run. My review is based solely on participating for 2 years in the Full Marathon.
The Good:
- Received a great price on this run using an San Fran Marathon code. Take advantage of these codes while you can. They are a great way to participate in a marathon at a discount rate.
- Great start time of 7:30. Not too early. LOVED IT!
- I liked that the half marathon started at 9:15, not only did it ease congestion at the start, it allowed us to potentially run into our friends around mile 17 of the full/mile 4 of the half and all finish about the same time.
- The volunteers. The volunteers, as was the case last year too, were fantastic. They were easy to spot in their orange t-shirts, had a smile for all the runners, cheered their hearts out and made the overall experience better. I don't think folks realize how much effort the day before, the day of and post-race goes into a race. They are out there, rain or shine, setting up, marking the roads, getting into place and then stand there all day cheering. Great job to all who volunteered to make this running event happen.
- The course. Yes, the full marathon is brutal, built in with many hills. However, the entire course is great. It offers a wonderful view of Oakland. It has many twists and turns so you never know what is around the next corner. For the most part, the roads were fairly void of potholes (except on Piedmont) and all-in-all just offers a good variety of scenery and running surfaces. In addition, GREAT support from the local Oakland police and fire departments. They were out in full force directing traffic, cheering us on and offering great smiles.
- Aid Stations. For the full marathon, the aid stations were plentiful and stocked with smiling volunteers. I never once thought "When will another aid station be coming up". They had plenty of aid stations, plenty of folks handing out water and Gatorade and a few Gu stations to boot. Well done on this front.
- The Finish line. See below on the negatives for the finish line, but there were a few positives. The finishers chute was very wide and offered a lot of room for spectators. It was great running this last bit (despite the hill). It was nice and wide. The event also offered space blankets and they handed out water on *both* sides of the post-race chute. You didn't have to cut across people to grab some water.
- The timing chip. The timing chip was built-in to the bib this year. And it wasn't one of those thick foam bib chips either. It was flat, discreet and did not get in the way of wearing the bib comfortably.
- The Start. I was able to easily find close parking, and for those coming in on BART (half marathoners only, BART doesn't run early enough for the full marathon event) it was easy to jump off on the 19th Street station. There was zero wait time for the port-o-potties (likely because I used them 5 minutes before gun time), bag check was a breeze (I didn't use it, but my friends did) and the start line, although crowded (heck, it's a marathon) was easy to be part of and get into a good stride. It was great having a few food trucks at the start to offer coffee and other tasties for those spectating or standing around waiting the 1 hour 45 minutes until the half marathon started.
- Facebook. Good use of the Oakland Running Festival Facebook page to stay up to date and ask questions. I received quick replies whenever I did ask a question.
The Bad:
- I personally was not a fan of the start/finish area; Snow Park. It is a grassy field with large trees situated on a hill. If it rains in the days leading up to the marathon, which it did this year, it turns into a wet, depressing, dark grassy field. I would prefer a flat surface with a mixture of grass, pavement and plenty of seating and enough space to accomodate all the runners & spectators.
- The expo was very limited. To say it took 5 minutes to get through the expo is not an understatement. There are very few booths, and many are irrelevant to a marathon or just someone giving a sales pitch for their product. I realize this is a small marathon, but more attention should be paid to creating a great running vibe at the expo.
- The virtual goodie bag. This year, the Oakland Running Festival wanted to go green and instead of handing out a goodie bag at the expo filled with many useless coupons/advertisements and some fun trial size freebies, they did a "virtual goodie bag" which consisted of an email being sent with just a handful of "coupons". Of which, 100% were not useful. Runners love freebies, bring back the goodie bag!
- Emails, emails and more emails. It's great when a marathon is communicative, but there comes a point when TOO many emails are sent out. This year proved that true. I think I received at least 3 emails in the week leading up to the race.
- Timing Mats/Athlete Tracking. The Oakland Running Festival had promised the ability for loved ones to track runners online during the event. Apparently, due to the "expected rain", the marathon did not set out the timing mats, nor the race clocks at each mile. Why they didn't do this, I don't get. Many marathons have timing mats and race clocks in the rain, so not sure why they didn't provide this. As someone who ran the full, knowing my 13.1 and other split times is critical. Bad move on the Oakland Running Festivals part. They knew rain was coming at least two weeks in advance, they could have planned better.
- The finish. Most of the finish was great, as noted above, however, it was void of "pomp & circumstance". Traditionally, there is someone there to say "congratulations" and place a medal around your neck, not this year. This year I had to walk over to some random person and ask for my medal. No "congrats" or big to-do about it, they just handed it to me and *I* placed it around my neck.
- The race shirts. For the full marathon, they gave away cheap polyseter long-sleeve zip shirts. They are not made from a technical fabric, so one cannot wear it while running. They were also VERY SMALL and felt cheap. I know I heard a lot of folks complain that they also resembled the Oakland Raiders colors. But come on people, it is an OAKLAND marathon. So I don't care about that part. But PLEASE, if I am running 26.2 miles, give me a decent finishers shirt (in a technical fabric).
- Race results. Apparently, the Oakland Running Festival said it was having issues with Active.com in uploading the full marathon results. In addition, the Active.com site was constantly "too busy to process the request". It's the day of the running event, both the Oakland Running Festival and Active.com should realize their site will see an increase in usage. They need to plan for this and have a fail-over plan in case site usage exceeds expectations.

CLEVELAND (Reuters) – Ohio Governor John Kasich signed into law a bill that makes it more difficult for minors to obtain permission for an abortion.
Ohio law already requires either parental permission or court order for any woman under 18 to legally obtain an abortion.
The new law signed late on Friday would require a judge to, "hear evidence relating to the emotional development, maturity, intellect, and understanding of the minor." Judges will also have to ask if the minor understands the consequences and alternatives to the abortion.
The law has already come under fire from Ohio abortion rights groups, chiding the governor for signing the bill late on Friday so it might go unnoticed.
"This bill ignores the fact that there are circumstances, such as a violent home, where telling her parents is not a safe option for some minor women," Kellie Copeland, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Ohio, said in a statement.
Ohio judges will also be required to ask minors if anyone "instructed" them on how to answer the court's questions.
Ten abortion-related bills have been introduced and are working their way through the Ohio House and Senate.

Tributes have been flooding in for Selston pilot Alan Eaves, who was tragically killed after the aircraft he was in plummeted to the ground.
Mr Eaves, 76, and John Gill, 70, of Belper, died at the scene near junction 26 of the M1, after their aircraft fell from the sky.
Neil Perkins, a member of the long-running Hucknall-based Merlin Flying Club of which both men were members, said the club had been left shocked and saddened.
He said: "The club is deeply distressed by this tragic accident.
"The club want to send our sincere condolences to the families of the two people who died. John and Alan were two valued members of the club and we are all saddened by this loss."
Selston parish councillor Gail Turner also paid tribute to Mr Eaves, of Mansfield Road.
She said Mr Eaves had played a pivotal part in the Selston Area Residents' Association, set up to fight a landfill proposal at Bentinck.
She said: "Alan was a good friend of mine and all the members of the Selston Area Residents' Association. All the members of the group are totally shocked by what has happened and our thoughts are with Pat, his wife, who is quite an incredible lady too.
"We will all miss him greatly. He was good fun and we will miss that sense of humour. His loss is a loss to the village. He did a lot for the village and he never sought glory for it. He was part of the team for years, right up to the day we won our battle.
"He was instrumental in researching air pollution and the effects of particulate matter on people, which formed a major part of our objection.
"Alan was an intelligent man who liked art and was a member of Selston Art Club. He was very fit and enjoyed hill walking, and going on walking trips to Norway.
"Alan lived a very full life. He loved his flying and when he retired from his job at Rolls-Royce he became a member of Merlin Flying club.
"He was a man who recognised right from wrong and he would do something about it."
Both men were experienced pilots and were flying a Cessna aircraft owned by the club. A post-mortem examination, which took place on Tuesday, June 17, ruled out any medical condition contributing to the crash.
A full investigation is now underway by the Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) in a bid to get to the bottom of the cause.
Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue, East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS) and the police attended the scene of the crash, on Saturday, June 14. After, a spokesman for EMAS said: "Frontline staff responded to an incident involving a light aircraft which came down close to the M1 between junctions 26 and 27.
"We received the call at 1.24pm and immediately dispatched a range of resources including specially trained staff from our hazardous area response team, the Derbyshire Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance, solo responders and incident managers. The first resource arrived on scene at 1.30pm."
Merlin Flying Club was set up over 50 years ago, by former employees of Rolls-Royce and their families , with the purpose of learning to fly. The club operates from the airfield on the Rolls-Royce's Hucknall site during the weekends only.

Horrorfest '07: Lake Dead (US - DVD R1)
...and so Gabe finishes up the 2007 Horrorfest with a cold, sloppy thud...
Three sisters learn that a long-lost grandfather has died and left them with the deed for his dilapidated hotel. The sisters and four of their friends decide to take a weekend camping around the hotel while they decide what to do with the land. Unfortunately there are some psycho rednecks living on the land with other plans in mind.
Lake Dead isn't a title that inspires a lot of confidence. The synopsis on the back of the box doesn't help. In a nutshell, your immediate assumptions will be positively correct— Lake Dead is a predictable teens in terror hacked by rednecks, with nothing new to offer to the greater feature film pantheon. However, if mindless T & A, vicious rednecks and stylized slasher violence sounds like your idea of a good time, Saturday night with beer and pizza is a go.
Director George Bessudo doesn't disappoint those of us with low expectations, and keeps his camera moving. The film's style is enjoyably '80s for the most part, dispensing with too much modern editing, digital grading or frame rate tricks. The Ts and the As are fully fulfilled, though the rapes add an unwanted edge that ruins a bit of the film's 'ride' aspect (feminists will not like this film at all). The gore scenes are shoe-string, but more or less earn their 'unrated' status, and have a tinge of imagination behind them.
The dialogue and characters teeter awkwardly between acceptably believable and super lame and predictable (not to mention the noticeable overuse of certain four letter words), but the actors stand up to the task for the most part. The plot is really derivative, and really predictable. You could set your watch to the kill order, and could create an inventory of Friday the 13th, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Hills Have Eyes references. The last act loses some major steam, and doesn't live up to the anticipation of the set up, but if we're in it for the first hour we might as well finish the last thirty, right?
This anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 widescreen presentation is pretty soft. The image quality is decent, but lacking in fine details, and could have perhaps done well with a bit of grain for needed texture. Blacks aren't as deep as I may've liked, but better then some of the other Horrorfest titles, and overall contrast is good enough to create mood without losing too much definition. The colours are kind of dull, but don't exhibit a whole lot of compression noise.
Lake Dead's 5.1 Dolby Digital track is very lively considering the source material's skid row budget. The score is reminiscent of some of the effective but silly digital symphony stuff Richard Band movies are so notorious for. The surrounds are mostly filled with canned sound effects like loopy swooshing noises, which almost all uncomfortably reverb. The score and effects are very active in the stereo channels, but don't really mix into the centre at all, which is almost solely devoted to dialogue. This creates an awkward misbalance on the entire track. The bass is too strong for the rest of the track, causing distinct distortion throughout all channels. The lower frequencies also warble a bit.
Another extraless Horrorfest title from After Dark Films. Just more of the same trailers and Miss Horrorfest webisodes.
Lake Dead isn't total crap, but it won't light a fire either. Come to it with low expectations and you won't be disappointed. Not Horrorfest's shining moment, but not the bottom of the barrel either. Take it or leave it kind of stuff. Those looking for a smidgen of genius in their redneck slashers might want to rent a real deal '80s killer thriller called Just Before Dawn, which Lake Dead seems to have borrowed its 'twin monster man killers' elements from.

SportLegs Supplement
Item: 20-4496
Go faster, stronger and longer without the pain of burning muscles. This unique supplement uses calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D to increase VO2 max, anaerobic threshold and time to exhaustion.

99Rock Music News: Russian Police Choir Perform Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky' at Olympics Opening Ceremony
By Jay Tilles
There may be nothing odder than watching the Russian Police Choir getting funky in front of the Winter Olympics crowd in Sochi, Russia. But what is definitely even weirder is to see these uniformed men getting their groove on to Daft Punk's "Get Lucky." Yes, it seems Vladimir Putin allowed them to stay up all night to get lucky.
This Opening Ceremony rendition isn't just an elaborate lip-sync. No, no, these officers are seen letting loose and belting out the lyrics while dancing the way only middle-aged white Russian police officers can.
According to Time, this isn't the first time the officers have gotten lucky. The Russian Interior Ministry's ensemble performed the disco hit last November.
While we're impressed with the officer's performance, we're not sure which version is better, the Russian offers or this band of excitable chickens. We will of course let you decide.
Watch more from today's (Feb. 6) Olympic opening ceremonies here.

Santa's Land saved, reopens
PUTNEY -- Santa's Land is saved!
It's new owners, the Billewicz family, have been busy going over all the details and making sure everything's ready before the children's park was reopened earlier this month.
"They treat me really well here," said Santa.
On July 7, Santa's Land was reopened to the public for seven days a week until Labor Day. After that, the park will be open weekends until Christmas.
"One thing we have to respect is that we are not to change what has been tradition for the generations that have come before," said Lillian Billewicz. "We want to leave it nostalgic, yet restore some of the attractions that need attention."
Billewicz had been following the story of Santa's Land since December 2011, when the park was about to be closed forever. She went to the park in February 2012 to check it out.
It was zero degrees outside. In a buggy, she was driven around the 42-acre property in snow and sleet.
"I saw it while I was bumping around," she said. "I saw something -- the potential."
Billewicz told previous owners Tim and Lesley Wells that if they ever wanted to sell the park, they should contact her first. Billewicz was never notified.
In the fall of 2012, she saw Santa's Land was up for auction and it triggered a maternal instinct.
"I said, 'No, no, no. That's not going to happen,'" Billewicz recalled.
The following two weeks, she and her two sons, Johnathan and Michael, began their attempts to save it from going to auction.
One of the major reasons for not wanting it to go to auction was that Santa's Land was included in a grandfather clause for zoning that it would lose if it went out to auction. The grandfather clause also stated that the park couldn't be closed for longer than a year.
Since it was closed in 2011, it had to be reopened in 2012 or the grandfather clause would be lost.
The doors were open but ownership was still up in the air. Volunteers met through Facebook on the "Save Our Santa's Land" page and the doors stayed open for a short time during 2012.
From January up until a few weeks ago, the Billewicz family has been in contract negotiations.
Since acquiring the park, friends and family have come up to the Putney property to assist with revitalizing some of the buildings and thoroughly cleaning the park.
There is now a clothing store for infants and toddlers with all new products, where the arcade used to be. Pathways in the park are now lined with huge candy canes.
The old black train has been scraped down and redone. The sleighs have been repainted.
New selections will be on the snack bar menu, which includes subs, kolbasi kabobs, chicken kabobs, shrimp kabobs, ice cream sundaes and banana splits.
And, 10 new fawns were born in the past two weeks, including with two sets of twins, in the deep park.

thx for deleting ricks post - that didnt sit well with me, I can tell you that much.
Is there any personal vendetta behind it?
Nah. IKA ---- It's the lack of open debate that is my concern, and was at the time of all that olympic politics. The kiteboarding community was told to shut up and tell Markus do all the talking (well that is what he told them!). They were not to have an opinion if the campaign was to be successful. Overall I saw world kiteboard safety was secondary to the campaign. My local sailing club(ISAF rep for nz) was saying to the national paper kiteracing is not dangerous its the freestyle part that is- bizzare. Everything was approached wrongly in my book. I debated with Gunnar at the time and we certainly don't see eye to eye on everything in those reports but some things we did - did a kiter/ competitor not even proof read the document he is showing to the world!!. Gunnar was the same, radio silence with then respectfully fronted up rather than just try to simply discredit me. I am sure all of you know each other well!
No vendetta against RICKI either unless he continues personal attacks on me...
I disagree with his opinion that private data on kite accidents is more important from the perspective of access compared to education that can be gained from it. Impartial data, no conflicts of interest, not release willy nilly depending on the agenda of the day - paid court cases/olympic inclusion/access/sell data to insurance companies?. I was also disappointed he did not front up during the olympic campaign for open debate not putting worldwide kiter saftey as the priority by joining in the debate - above olympic inclusion. Why?
If you were positive towards kiting in Olympics, shouldn't you just have moved forward and show the sailors and clubs what to look out for?
I think to say I was positive towards kiting in the olympics would be stretching the truth after I saw the campaign evolving! I do see it as causing huge conflicts of interests and corruption if not dealt with correctly. The prime riders at the time should have been dealing with it all they are the ones- Adam Koch etc the dude that slept in his car in Maui years ago to go kiting - awesome!I I did read that he thought he got fully shafted at the time. Its a huge problem when you don't even let the actual riders themselves give their opinion out for debate., they are the ones maybe in the future being told to launch and land their kites at unsuitable locations, they are teh pioneers. they should have been driving it to make sure so many of the ridiculous decisions were not made. They did not write those public reports.
Did as you say and met up with them but were horrified what I was hearing, it was a dangerous situation for kiteboarding, this was not just me talking, this was the sailing club talking too!!!!! NZ sailing clubs would be some of the most dangerous places to hold events I know of - that is for real, you don't teach non kiters to look after kiters safety, you teach kiters an dthey were asking us for advice!.,I though jeez the same thing is happening in other countries too. It was wrong so we started the NZKRA facebook page, a kiteboarding association so we had a say, most of us were against the ISAF representive for sailing being kitesurfings Olympic Rep in NZ.
Some of us had been racing twintips without any idea the olympic campign was on its way. It was then that decision was reversed. All the interest lost. The first few raceboard had started showing up and this meant those on less expensive boards just lost interest, deviding the field up or losing on a twintip. A group of racers still remain, all on raceboards, which is good for them. But that killed the racing for those without the cash for the fast gear. Kind of true to say it was too early - it seems many riders $3000 boards are gathering dust as slalom and foil are being hyped right now. The momentum was lost. It hasn't come back. I still have an interest, my foil is half done, but a lot of the stoke surrounding racing with my friends on affordable kit was lost.
My views and idea evolve as I learn.

Suffolk is extremely fortunate to have one of the nation's most talented poets and accomplished scholars on our faculty
Boston, MA (PRWEB) November 15, 2012
Poet David Ferry, a Distinguished Scholar-in-Residence at Suffolk University, has won the 2012 National Book Award in poetry for Bewilderment: New Poems and Translations.
Ferry's book, a collection of his own poems and translations of the Latin verse of Horace and Virgil, was praised by the judges for its "grace and profundity, spiritual wisdom and utilitarianism."
The National Book Award was established in 1950. It is administered by the National Book Foundation and recognizes American authors annually in four categories, fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and young people's literature.
Ferry received the award at a ceremony in New York on November 14. "I was honored to be in the company of such good poets, and humbled and delighted to learn that I won the award," he said.
Ferry has taught seminars on classics and translation in Suffolk University's English Department since 2009. He also is a regular guest lecturer in poetry and creative writing classes, and he gives readings of his works at the University's Poetry Center.
In 2011 he received the Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize, which recognizes the extraordinary lifetime accomplishments of a living U.S. poet.
"Suffolk is extremely fortunate to have one of the nation's most talented poets and accomplished scholars on our faculty," said Kenneth S. Greenberg, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. "Our students eagerly sign up for his classes and feel privileged to engage with him in the classroom."
Ferry's books of poetry and translation include His Epistles of Horace: A Translation; Of No Country I Know: New and Selected Poems and Translations; The Eclogues of Virgil; The Odes of Horace: A Translation; Dwelling Places: Poems and Translations; Gilgamesh: A New Rendering in English Verse; Strangers: A Book of Poems; On the Way to the Island; and The Limits of Mortality: An Essay on Wordsworth's Major Poems.
Over the course of his career, Ferry has received many awards and fellowships, including a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship, the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize from the Academy of American Poets, the Rebekah Johnson Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry from the Library of Congress, and an Academy Award for Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
Ferry will read poems and translations from Bewilderment at 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 6, at Suffolk University's Modern Theatre, 525 Washington St., Boston.
Suffolk University, located in historic downtown Boston, with an international campus in Madrid, is a student-centered institution distinguished by excellence in education and scholarship.

DUDLEY, Mass. – Freshman Caitlin Mackey (San Diego, Calif.) and Kimberly Barker (Camden, N.Y.) combined for a pair of goals as MIT edged host Nichols College, 2-1, in a non-conference field hockey action on Vendetti Field Wednesday evening. With the win the Engineers improve to 7-2 overall while Nichols falls to 4-2.
Mackey's game winner came just over 12 minutes into the second stanza, as part of a 16-shot assault for Tech during the frame. Barker picked up her second assist of the night to break a 1-1 tie and help the Cardinal and Gray pick up the road win.
After Chelsea Correia (Seekonk, Mass.) put the Bison on the board early in the contest, Barker and Mackey needed less than 10 minutes to even things up. Barker fed the ball past Nichols' keeper Molly Melanson (Simsbury, Conn.) to a waiting Mackey, who pushed into the lower left corner of the goal for her fifth tally of the season.
The Engineers had a number of chances to extend their lead during the second half, peppering Melanson with 10 shots on goal and drawing a Nichols yellow-card midway through the frame. However, the Bison defense stood tall and Melanson made nine of her 12 saves during the period.
Casey Landry (Peabody, Mass.) made four saves to pick up the victory in goal for MIT.
Tech will return to New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) play on Saturday, September 24, hosting Springfield College at 1:00 p.m. Nichols travels to Endicott College on Saturday for a 1:00 p.m. Commonwealth Coast Conference matchup.

Last month, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said that the team would "probably" look at extending linebacker Sean Lee's contract before it expires at the end of the 2013 season and the Cowboys website recently predicted that a new deal would come soon.
They may be looking, but a report from Albert Breer of the NFL Network suggests that they haven't done much more than that at this point. According to Breer, there haven't been any talks yet between the team and the linebacker, who is set to make $630,000 this year.
That's low for a player who is ticketed for a major role in the Cowboys defense this season and Lee's value to the team isn't a matter for much debate after watching the defense go into the tank last season after Lee was lost for the season to a toe injury. It's not the first serious injury that Lee has suffered, which raises concern about his durability while also possibly working in the Cowboys' favor in terms of a deal because Lee has to be well aware of what he'd risk financially if another injury should keep him out for a long period of time.
Or the Cowboys could decide that they want to make sure Lee can play 16 games, even if it means paying a bit more in the long run. Cowboys history says that the patient route isn't the one they'll wind up taking, but, as of now, they haven't rushed to secure Lee's signature on an extension.

Taking a cue from DearMyrtle, I decided to finally "get off the fence" and order a copy of The Researcher's Guide to American Genealogy so I can better participate in the Just Genealogy Second Life book club. So now I'm fervently checking my email for the download link. I'm hoping to carve out some time this weekend to delve into it!
I couldn't make the last discussion, but the first one in August was outstanding! I'm really beginning to enjoy collaborating online to discuss, consider, and explore ways to improve my research. Many times my genealogy research has been kind of solitary, but between blogs, Facebook, Google+, webinars, and now Second Life, connecting with others has never been easier, or more fun!

Researchers find two new methods to determine ALK status
DENVER – The implementation of personalized health care in cancer relies on the identification and characterization of cancer biomarkers and the availability of accurate detection systems and therapies for those biomarkers. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), a tyrosine kinase, is a more recently characterized cancer biomarker in non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To identify NSCLC patients with ALK gene rearrangement in clinical trials, researchers have used the methods known as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) or immunohistochemistry (IHC). While IHC is a less complex and less costly technology than FISH, both methods present
Now research published in the August issue of the Journal of Thoracic Oncology (JTO), describes the development and evaluation of two new methodologies.
To improve IHC assay sensitivity, the researchers incorporated the novel, nonendogenous hapten 3-hydroxy-2-quinoxaline and tyramide amplification into a diaminobenzidine and horseradish peroxidase–based assay. The new detection system proved to be very useful for detecting low levels of ALK protein expression in NSCLC.
They also developed a brightfield IHC–in situ hybridization combination assay (gene–protein assay) for the concurrent visualization of ALK protein and ALK gene arrangement. This allows the concurrent visualization of ALK gene and ALK protein status in single cells, allowing more accurate ALK status determination even in heterogeneous specimens.
The authors say, "this tool for simultaneously assessing both ALK protein expression (IHC) and ALK gene rearrangement (ISH) in NSCLC will be valuable for research on the mechanisms driving ALK-dependent malignancies and as a model of new diagnostic approach for identifying patients who might benefit from ALK-targeted therapies. More generally, it also provides proof of concept for the development of new methodologies for the simultaneous assessment of gene structure and protein-expression status in a single cell.
The lead author of the study is Dr. Hiroaki Nitta. Dr. Koji Tsuta is an IASLC co-author.
About the IASLC:
The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) is the only global organization dedicated to the study of lung cancer. Founded in 1974, the association's
membership includes more than 3,500 lung cancer specialists in 80 countries. To learn more about ISLAC please visit www.islac.org

Our spy photographer recently caught a 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class wagon prototype testing in Germany. While we don't expect the wagon bodystyle to come to the U.S., the C-Class sedan and coupe will return along with the new convertible variant.
While the new C-Class convertible prototype featured a mesh grille, likely to throw off spy shooters, the C-Class wagon prototype has a blacked out version of the C-Class sedan's two-bar grille with large center emblem. Through the camo, we can see the C-Class wagon's rear door is more upright near the C-pillar where it meets the cargo area side glass. The wagon also appears to have a small hatch wing above the rear glass.
Like the C-Class sedan, coupe, and convertible bodystyles, we expect the wagon to feature the same engine lineup including a turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4,the GLK's 2.1-liter turbodiesel I-4 as well as a hybrid powertrain and an AMG version. All-wheel drive will also be available. Mercedes is investing heavily into its American assembly plant in Alabama to add production of the next-generation C-Class.
While we expect to see the C-Class sedan and coupe (including the new convertible) to return to the U.S., it's unlikely the wagon variant will follow. If sold in the U.S., the Mercedes-Benz C-Class wagon would compete with the Audi Allroad and BMW 3 Series wagon. Should the Mercedes-Benz C-Class wagon be sold in the U.S.? Share your thoughts below.

Howard and Bill
Fund: Draper Richards
Posted by joescout on 2007-07-02
I met Howard Hartenbaum and Bill Draper 3 weeks ago through a referral from another VC. We had just 2 days earlier closed a small seed round with a small VC and a group of angels. They gave great feedback, asked great questions, and followed through with an investment exactly as promised.
Howard and Bill scheduled around me and agreed to meet me first thing in the AM - I showed up 10 minutes early and we started right away. Both asked great on point questions as they had prepared in advance and obviously read the ppt and executive summary I had provided them a day before the meeting. It was also clear by their questions, they had done some phone calls to learn more about me and the business already.
I only showed one slide (the business model) as the questions and answer discussion was on track and covering the key items I wanted to cover. 50 minutes into the meeting - Bill turned to Howard and they talked about what they thought to each other (in front of me). They then agreed to fund the same amount on the same terms as the original VC and add to our just closed round. They agreed to make it happen in a week subject to them checking 2 references on me. 7 days later they sent their signature pages and wire as agreed.
Summary - I have not worked with Howard and Bill before - but based on their great questions, track record, and doing what they said they would so far - I am super excited to have them involved.PRIVATE: Members Only (775 Characters)

UA survives Colorado to reach Pac-12 semis
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Arizona knew it would get a tough, physical game from Colorado. Every game seems to be that way when these teams play.
Unlike their previous meeting, when they were blown out by Colorado, the Wildcats had an answer.
Nick Johnson scored 18 points and hit a contested shot with 34 seconds left, helping No. 18 Arizona beat Colorado 79-69 in the Pac-12 tournament quarterfinals Thursday.
"I couldn't be more proud of our team because we need to play extremely hard to beat a team like Colorado," Arizona coach Sean Miller said. "It seems like every time we get together with them, we play these very physical, tough games, and today was no different."
Arizona (25-6) was in control most of the way and led by 14 midway through the second half. They still had trouble shaking the desperate Buffaloes, who are on the NCAA tournament bubble.
But, like they did so many times early in the season, the Wildcats came up with the big plays to close out a tight game.
With Arizona leading 71-69, Johnson hit his shot between three defenders. Teammate Mark Lyons followed with two free throws and Johnson kept the Buffs from getting closer by swatting Askia Booker's 3-point attempt into Colorado's bench.
Lyons finished with 14 points and Solomon Hill had 13 points, seven rebounds and four assists for Arizona, which moves on to face No. 21 UCLA in Friday's semifinals.
"We played great tonight," Hill said. "We had a couple of mishaps here and there, but all in all we got the `W.'"
Colorado (21-11) won last year's conference tournament with four wins in four days and opened this year's tournament with a six-point victory over Oregon State.
Now the Buffaloes will have to wait for the selection committee to make its decision to see if they'll get into the NCAA tournament after the close loss to Arizona.
Spencer Dinwiddie led fifth-seeded Colorado with 18 points and Andre Roberson added 15 points and 11 rebounds.
"I thought our guys responded to some adversity tonight very well, but we just didn't have enough to get over the hump there at the end," Colorado coach Tad Boyle said. "Made a valiant effort, but it just wasn't enough today."
The Wildcats and Buffaloes played a couple of memorable games during the regular season.
Arizona won in overtime in Tucson on Jan. 3, when a disputed 3-point shot by Sabatino Chen was waved off after a video review. Colorado got payback in a big way in Boulder with a 71-58 win, Arizona's worst loss in two years.
Heading into the rubber match, Arizona was pretty much a lock for an NCAA tournament berth, while Colorado was trying to win the tournament for the second straight year or at least boost its resume to get an at-large bid.
The Wildcats also were trying to get their defensive groove back.
A top-5 team after opening the season with 14 straight wins, Arizona faltered late in the Pac-12 season, mostly because of a defense that had taken a step back instead of getting better. The Wildcats got some of their swagger back in a lopsided win over rival Arizona State to close the season and hoped they would keep it up in the conference tournament.
Arizona, the tournament's fourth seed, got off to a good defensive start against Colorado, forcing 10 first-half turnovers that led to 15 points while limiting the Buffaloes to two 3-point attempts.
"The end of the first half I thought was the difference, because, obviously, we turned the ball over a lot," Boyle said.
Johnson broke out of a mini funk against Arizona State and was active against Colorado, hounding whoever he was guarding while scoring at the rim and from the arc at the other end.
Johnson had eight points in the first half and charged up the crowd early in the second, hitting a 3-pointer, scoring on an underhanded shot for a three-point play and feeding Lyons for a layup that put the Wildcats up 49-36.
Colorado whittled the lead down to seven on a 3-pointer by Dinwiddie, but Kaleb Tarczewski hit a jump hook and Kevin Parrom dropped in a 3-pointer as Johnson waved his arms at the crowd — he knew it was going in — that made it 59-47 and started a chant of "U-of-A!" from Wildcats fans.
The Buffaloes made another run after that, cutting the lead to 3 when Dinwiddie scored on an acrobatic scoop shot and kept Colorado in reach with some big baskets.
Lyons hit a turnaround 3-pointer from the corner as the clock expired with about 2 minutes left, but Booker answered quickly with a 3 in transition to pull the Buffaloes within 71-67.
Lyons lost his dribble for a turnover on Arizona's next possession and Roberson hit two free throws at the other end to make it a 2-point game but the Buffaloes didn't score again, leaving their postseason future in the air.
"We battled throughout the whole season," Roberson said. "We took a couple of tough losses, but I feel like we definitely have some quality wins under our belt, so I feel like we did enough."

Godard has earned his spot as an every day player.
Well, he's not going to develop much further as a player, and personally, I'd rather be making NHL money sitting in the press box than getting punched in the face for AHL money!

EPA Announces $850,000 in Grants to Clean Up Contaminated Sites in Duluth; State to Receive a Total of $2,650,000 in Grants and Loans
Release Date: 06/07/2012

For Immediate Release No. 12-OPA046
EPA Announces $850,000 in Grants to Clean Up Contaminated Sites in Duluth; State to Receive a Total of $2,650,000 in Grants and Loans
(CHICAGO – June 7, 2012) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Regional Administrator Susan Hedman today joined Mayor Don Ness at the Duluth Heritage Sports Center to announce $850,000 in grants to redevelop contaminated properties, create jobs and protect public health in Duluth. The city and the Duluth Economic Development Authority will use these "brownfield grants" to assess and clean up abandoned industrial and commercial properties.
Previous EPA brownfield grants helped to assess the Clyde Iron Works site so it could be cleaned up and redeveloped. The former brownfield site is now the Duluth Heritage Sports Center.
"EPA's brownfield grants will be used to clean up contaminated sites along the St. Louis River and Lake Superior shoreline in Duluth," said EPA Region 5 Administrator Susan Hedman. "These grants will help to expand recreational opportunities and create jobs."
The Duluth Economic Development Authority will receive a $200,000 brownfield grant to clean up hazardous substances at Bayfront Lot D on the 900 to 1000 block of Railroad Street. The site, which once housed freight depots, warehouses and manufacturing businesses, has been abandoned and is contaminated with polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, heavy metals and petroleum waste. The Duluth Economic Development Authority wants to redevelop the site as part of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Safe Harbor system for recreational boaters, which would help stimulate redevelopment and investment in the area.
"Our partnership with the EPA has been critical to DEDA's ability to prepare sites for productive development. This grant will serve as a catalyst to significant private sector investment," said Nancy Norr, Vice President of DEDA.
The city will also receive a $650,000 Revolving Loan Fund grant for the cleanup of hazardous substances. This grant will be used to clean up brownfield sites throughout the city, with special emphasis on the St. Louis River/Lake Superior Shoreline Corridor Project Area. More than half of Duluth's industrial brownfields are in the corridor, which extends from downtown to the western end of the city and northwest to Skyline Parkway. The St. Louis River flows into Lake Superior in the corridor, forming the world's largest freshwater estuary. Ten of the streams that flow into the estuary within the Corridor are designated trout streams.
"Properties along the St. Louis River Corridor hold some of the greatest potential in the City for redevelopment that will result in the growth of jobs, tax base and population. There is also potential for increased recreational access to the St. Louis River. But assessment and cleanup of brownfield properties is complex and costly; we constantly strive to have as many 'tools' in the toolbox to address these challenges, and the two grants announced today will be effective tools," said Heidi Timm-Bijold, Duluth's Acting Director for Business and Economic Development.
The Duluth grants are part of the EPA's $69.3 million 2012 nationwide brownfield grants to clean up and redevelop contaminated properties, boost local economies, create jobs and protect public health. Since 2002, EPA has awarded more than $2 million in brownfield grants to Duluth.
