Everyone's eyes are different; and their recovery experience from lasik surgery is likewise different.
You will most likely choose a very experienced surgeon for your procedure that has done hundreds, if not thousands, of lasik surgery procedures. Each surgeon, through experience, has developed a post-surgical protocol that works best for his or her patients. Some bandage eyes for 12-24 hours to protect them and reduce eye strain. Others provide protective goggles. Still others have their own methods for shielding the eyes from any disruption. Whatever method your doctor employs, know that it has worked best for that particular surgeon and, thus, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to do this.
Your surgeon will advise you not to touch your eyes, or rub them for a period of days or weeks following surgery to allow for the proper healing of your eyes. He or she will prescribe eye drops in order to keep your eyes from drying out and to protect them from infection. You should experience minimal discomfort through the healing process and most patients report nothing more than mild itching or irritation akin to having something "in your eye" such as a grain of sand. Staying away from places that are extraordinarily dusty or where there is flying debris until your eyes heal completely is sound advice for the lasik patient.
Some patients experience a halo or glow around objects at night. This is normal and should dissipate within a few months. Wearing sunglasses during the day will help you adjust to any light sensitivity you might experience for the first few weeks after surgery.
It is important to keep your regularly scheduled post-operation appointments with your surgeon. He or she will check on the healing progress and assess the improvement in your vision to make sure that you achieve your vision goals.
In few cases, about 2-3% of surgeries, a follow-up surgery might be necessary to further correct your vision. While this doesn't happen very often, it does not mean that something went wrong; it just means that more fine tuning will improve your vision that much more. This is called an "enhancement" and is an option that is available to you.
Your eyes will heal after lasik surgery and your recovery experience will be different than other people's experience. Most people are surprised and excited that their recovery is so smooth and they can return to work and normal activities right away.

Agreements with Dreamcatcher terminated on the Battlecruiser Forums has an update from 3000AD's Derek Smart on his legal action against publisher Dreamcatcher Interactive (story). Apparently while Dreamcatcher has complied with demands to remove materials relating to Universal Combat: A World Apart, but they are still carrying listings for Battlecruiser Millennium Gold and other Universal Combat games, word is: "Either way, this time around - unlike the fiasco over UC which cost me several thousands of lost earnings and them getting away with merely a slap on the wrist - I am fully prepared to see this to the very - bitter - end as I don't believe that Dreamcatcher is going to be in business much longer. At least not long enough to keep conducting business (at least with us) as they have been doing since we signed with them back in late 2002."

The biggest rumor of the 2012 season floating around is that Patrick Mordaunt has signed a deal with a top four gun company to sponsor his car (which we think is the old APEX'i Lexus SC430). They have kept a pretty good wrap on his new program but once the big announcement comes out we think you will have guns, luxury, and a new tire sponsor. Patrick is a few steps into becoming a third world country warlord at this rate. He just needs to secure some rare resources and more weapons partnerships. All kidding aside we cannot wait to see which of the big gun companies he has brought on board for 2012. Any guesses as to which gun company is stepping up to team up with Patrick for 2012?
Finkle is Einhorn…
Mordaunt IS KONY
is this the same "Jerry Tsai" who used to run the Pac Rim drift team?????
I wonder if these are connected…. former drifting dude becomes magazine editor…. new gun company sponsors drifting….
He can put the infant back in infantry.
Im gonna go out in a limb and say Gloc. They do have a Aarca car, or they did.
If he makes top 16, I hope he fires blanks into the air during the intros!
Front mount machine guns? turret on top?
That is awesome to see companies outside of the Automotive Industry sponsoring FD drivers.
lets just hope patty cakes can keep the laces out this season. a gun sponsor would be really gangster!
One hell of a demographic for pushing guns? Paintball maybe.
Works in Arizona. They don't need a License to own a gun.
maybe Remington. they already have motorsport involvement. new non endemic sponsors are exciting.
I think this is awesome! And +1 to the Remington prediction, I think they'd be a likely candidate.
…..hopes the third judge is Michael Moore.
No matter what
I hope J-Rod says "He's gunnin' for it" every time Pat does something this year.

Is crime going down or unreported in New London?
Certainly, the meeting this week before a committee of the New London City Council, in which a chorus of city police officials, past and present, raised their voices in alarm over what they called the demoralized state of the police department, was disturbing.
Even City Councilor Anthony Nolan, a police officer himself, reported on the dysfunction of the department and said he feels safer in the community than in the police station.
One 34-year veteran of the department says things are worse than he's ever seen them, and he's worked under five chiefs.
Demoralized officers, they said, are fleeing the department in droves.
More troubling to me, though, were reports I have heard raised privately among police lately that crime in the city has been going unreported.
Some in the department say this covering up of crime stems from a directive from Mayor Daryl Finizio saying that all crime press releases have to go through the mayor's office. This, they said, has directly resulted in less public reporting of criminal incidents.
Indeed, when I ran a search through The Day email server of press releases from the deputy police chief, who routinely handles questions from the press, there has been a clear decline in releases recently.
I only found a handful of police press releases for June, and one was the announcement of a "Click It Or Ticket" seat belt enforcement campaign.
There have been times in the not-so-recent past that the deputy chief was sending out press releases daily or even more than once a day, on all kinds of crimes, big and small.
There are fewer press releases, the mayor said, after I asked whether he was tamping down crime reports, because crime is going down.
The mayor specifically mentioned the major drug raids conducted in April, which has recently lowered the amount of drug-related crime and crime overdoses.
I also made a Freedom of Information request for recent emails from the mayor's office to the police department, to check out reports that the mayor had sent a directive to clear police crime press releases through him.
The mayor's office produced four emails, none directing that crime press releases be approved by the mayor.
They also sent along a copy of a May 20 memorandum to all department heads telling them that all information given to the public or city councilors would have to go through the mayor.
The mayor told me this memo was related to some confusing remarks about the budget and police staffing made by the police chief to the City Council during budget deliberations.
He said the memo was crafted to remind all department heads that public information has to go through him. But he said it was definitely not intended to apply to routine crime press releases.
He has made it a policy since he took office, he said, to be involved in public disclosures of major crimes and not to interfere with the reporting of routine criminal incidents.
Negotiations with the police union, over a contract that expires this month, and the approaching election season for City Council candidates, is no doubt coloring the discussion of the state of the police department.
And certainly, the city police union and the administration are at odds in assessing the state of crime in the city, since one side wants more police boots on the street and the other side wants fewer, to accommodate a leaner budget.
It is too early for federal crime statistics to prove who is right.
Let's just hope the mayor's got it right and that crime is going down at an opportune time.
Imagine if it were going up at a time when officers were fleeing a dysfunctional, demoralized department.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

Dan Gin needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 157 designs submitted by 20 freelance designers.
Daniel Gin Photography
I'm a photographer based in Chicago that specializes in wedding and lifestyle photography. My photography isn't limited to just weddings and family portraits; it also includes commercial event and product photography. I recently added cinematic videography to the services that I offer. For examples of my work, please visit my website at: http://www.dangin.com
I'm targeting couples who are looking for a photographer with a contemporary look and feel to capturing their wedding day. Most of my clients are young professionals that live in/nearby downtown Chicago. What they are not looking for are very traditional, stodgy, a lot of posed photos by an uptight guy with a camera.
I'm looking for a logo that reflects sophisticated and contemporary. The final design needs to be submitted to me in high resolution in the following formats:
.ai (CMYK)
.psd (layered, RGB)
.png (w/ transparent background)
While I prefer my full name (Daniel Gin) in the artwork, I'm okay with if it being shortened to Dan Gin in order to fit a certain design you have in mind. Please avoid using camera clip art or cartoons. Come to think of it, I'm not too keen on most clip art, but I may be surprised... Design must work with either transparent or black background (current website theme has black background). Use of the Chinese characters in the current logo (see attached) is not required but I can make them available if you'd like to incorporate it into your design.

Author Notes: Whenever we have season of fresh peas, and fresh green pigeon peas known as "Toovar" , my mom would get into kitchen and she would make these as often as possible before the fresh peas go out of sight. It is a labor intensive work to make these seriously. Never with my mom. First peel the pods of toovar and peas and then folding them. I thought I would never be making them like an Empanada due to the repulge design. But it is so easy once you have grip on them. In India, we don't get frozen stuff so easily, although the time has changed so we do find it now. But, I remember my mom would freeze the peas by herself after blanching them. Then we would have the "Kachori" which is quite similar to Empanadas. kachori is a deep fried snack stuff filled with a mixture of peas, toovar with some seasoning and cashews, sultanas and pomegranate seeds. It is one of the best dishes of my mom. We don't usually make them so big like Empanadas are usually, nor do we bake them. Lot of versions would be round in shape or sometimes as mom-in -law makes in samosa style. The stuffing is almost the same. I have utilized the fresh chickpeas available now along with peas. Serve it with mango chutney or citrusy mango butter by Hillarybee. —PistachioDoughnut
Makes: a big family of empanadas
2 1/2
cups Flour (You can use either AP Flour or whole wheat , I used both 1 1/2 C whole wheat & 1 cup AP Flour)
6 to 8
tablespoons Cold Unsalted butter
Salt to taste
teaspoon Sugar
cup ice cold water
Fresh green Chickpeas and Peas Mixture
cup Fresh green chickpeas
cup Fresh Peas
4 to 5
tablespoons Pomegranate Seeds
2 to 3
tablespoons Cashew nuts
2 to 3
tablespoons Sultanas
tablespoon Sesame seeds
tablespoon Green chili paste
tablespoon Ginger paste
tablespoon Sugar
1 to 1 1/2
tablespoons Lemon juice
tablespoons Grated fresh coconut
tablespoon Garam Masala, use less if you do not like spicy
Salt to taste
tablespoons Oil
Cloves of garlic
- For the Chickpea and Pea Mixture - Take the green chickpeas, peas and coconut and pulse it coarsely in your food processor. Please do not over mix it. It should grainy and coarse mix. Mix all the ingredients into this mixture, leaving aside the lemon juice.
- Heat a pot or deep pan with oil on medium heat and add this mixture into it once the oil is hot.
- Let the mixture get cooked for about 5 to 7 minutes and let everything mix well with each other. Once you see the mixture has lost the water content, do not leave it to longer or it will be a very dry filling. switch off the stove and add in the lemon juicea nd mix it well.Leave the mixture to cool a little bit.
- Meanwhile the filling is getting cool, we will start forming the empanada. Divide the dough into equal parts. Roll out the dough into 5' in circles and approx 1/8 inch thick.
- Spoon the filling about 1 tbsp on each of these circles and fold it in half moon/circle and press the edges to seal. Once the edges are sealed then, starting from one end, pull the dough just a little and fold it towards the filled bumpy side for design. You can also use fork to make the pattern. Probably you can watch some videos on youtube to get more idea for this step.
- Once all the Empanadas are folded and shaped. PreHeat oven to 400 F. Line them on the baking sheet and bake them for about 20 to 25 minutes. If you plan to make a big batch and freeze them then, please freeze them before baking them. And, whenever you are ready to bake them , simply defrost them and bake them.
- Serve them hot with mango chutney or tamarind chutney. * if you are not making these with fresh green chickpea and peas, then toovar is available in the frozen section of Indian grocery stores.

Reviews (8)
"Thankful for the cheap worm tabs"
We have 3 dogs 2 big 1 small and the tabs did wonders for our small dog but then for our big dogs the tabs worked then the worms kept coming back so then I gave them the tabs then the next day
"Tape worm cost"
Evidently the people who are complaining about the cost of tape worm meds for dogs have never purchased it from their vet. It is cheaper to worm a horse. But tape worm meds from a veterinarian is extremely high compared to what Jeffers charges. I'm excited to be able to worm my 2 small and 1 med dogs for less than it cost to worm 1 small dog with meds from the vet.
"Effective & SAFE!"
This product is extremely effective and SAFE. Regarding two prior reviews, for anyone considering using the combination of Praziquantel & Ivermectin, be aware that using them in this manner may have fatal consequences for your dog. The reason for this is that you will likely be over dosing with the Ivermectin. While working for my vet we saw more than a few instances of over dosing. A much more cost effective way of ridding your dog of tapeworms is to simply use the Fish Tapes (TL-F5). 34 mg of Praziquantel just like the Tape Worm Tabs at a much lower price!
"Tape Worm Tabs"
Thank God we can still buy a Tapeworm Medicine without a Prescription. I just can't believe how regulated things have become in the US. We can't do anything unless a Vet says so. Its so nuts. So many people go without giving there animals anything for worms anymore, because they just can't afford too. Thanks Jeffers for keeping these in Stock.
"Jeffers has the best price"
Yes the product is expensive, I have compared this to the equivalent cat product which was 3 for 24.99 at todays most popular pet store and 3 for 15.99 at the newest corporate farm store...Jeffers, as always, is the best place to purchase.
"Expensive but . . ."
Yes, this is expensive but . . . Still cheaper than at the vet!
"ditto to the first review"
I have to say ditto to Pissed in Preston. I have a mini shelter here, 8 dogs, all rescues and tape worms is an expensive proposition to treat for them. Please can't someone develop a reasonably priced tape wormer for dogs.
"Ridiculously overpriced!"
Considering that you can worm a 1320 pound horse with Equimax, which not only has Praziquantel but also Ivermectin, for $9.95, this is outrageous!!! If I was to use this product to worm a 1320 horse, it would cost me $372.90 - 37 times as much as the Praziquantel and Ivermectin combined in Equimax!!! This is a real rip-off! Using Equimax as a comparison, you should be able to worm a 60 pound dog with praziquantel for less than $.50 - NOT $17. Won't some company please make a Praziquantel prouct for dogs & cats that is reasonably priced?

WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) -- The Daily Mail reports Sen. Rand Paul's neighbor, Rene Boucher, was not a fan of trees on Paul's property because he believed it devalued the worth of his home.
According to the website, Boucher and Paul's homes are 250 ft. apart and separated by a lawn instead of a fence or a wall. Boucher tried to sell his house for as much as $849,500 but has never been able to sell it.
Currently, the house is believed to be worth $740,000 as determined by tax assessors. Boucher's house is 7,500 square feet and two stories.
Property records revealed by The Daily Mail show that Boucher put his house for sale five times over the last 10 years.
Besides devaluing his property, Boucher reportedly believed that the trees blocked his view of a private lake in the neighborhood.
Boucher's lawyer, Matt Baker, says that his client's fight with Paul was solely about a property dispute and had nothing to do with politics.
Boucher pleaded not guilty after being charged with fourth degree assault. Sen. Paul suffered five broken ribs after being assaulted in his home.

Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor Assembly Dorman 974-014 - 1ATPM000141ATPM00014
This tire pressure monitoring system sensor assembly is a brand new, aftermarket sensor. It is designed to replace all original equipment manufacturers including:
- Beru, Lear, Pacific, Schrader, Siemens, TRW
This tire pressure monitoring sensor features the following specifications:
- Fits any one of the 4 wheel assemblies
- Replaces dealer part numbers: 25773946
- Sensor assembly consists of the following new components:
- Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor (TPMS)
- Attachment Screw
- Valve Stem
- Nickel Plated Valve Core
- Gasket
- Washer
- Locking Nut
- Valve Stem Cap
- Built to strict quality control standards
- 100% tested prior to leaving the factory
- New two-piece sensor design allows valve stem flexing from 5 to 26 degrees helping to eliminate breaking
Typical reasons why the sensor should be replaced:
- Valve stem type TPMS sensors require installation of new hardware whenever a tire is is changed
- Valve leak
- Seal leak
- Battery in sensor becomes weak or dies (average battery life is 5 years). All sensors will eventually need to be replaced

The day of 12-21-2012 is a "portal dimensional transit" date. Goodness, what does that mean? Simply stated, it will bring a huge energy shift to the planet, and some people's nervous systems may not be in a place to handle it. A certain amount of prep work needs to be done in order to be in synch with this higher energy field. This date is definitely not the end of the world, as some people have imagined. It is the beginning of a new dimension of possibilities for those of us who are willing to work together towards a conscious change on the planet, which is inclusive of all living beings. See you there!
- Omega 3 Oils: There is a tremendous increase of electrical energy beaming down on the planet. All electrical currents require insulation, and as humans we need increased insulation. Omega 3 oils are an essential component for the nervous system and higher brain function. You will notice a difference after just 2 weeks of taking these nutrients.
- Sauna or Steam Room: Sweating is an important function for the body and brain. If you don't sweat regularly the lymphatic system can't detoxify itself. This creates a bitterness in the blood which is the beginning of disease. Don't use toxic deodorants, as they clog up the armpits. The armpits need to sweat so that the brain may cleanse itself. Brain toxicity is sometimes the cause for nightmares and mental imbalance. A sauna or steam bath is recommended once every three weeks.
- Stretch: A flexible body helps support a flexible mind and personality. In 2012 the overall number for the year is a 5, and 5 on an emotional level is flexibility and tolerance. Simple stretching from side to side, whether sitting on the floor or standing will help balance the flow of energy in the body.
- Breathe: The breath controls the mind. If you have a shallow breathing pattern, you are automatically vulnerable to fear and depression. Why? Because you will not have enough energy to face the day. Be active and aerobic, have fun things to do in your week, and get outdoors in nature. We all need a break sometimes from the density of the negative electromagnetic field generated by city living. Hug a tree.
- Master Pranayam—Sitali Kriya: The mind is controlled by the breath. When our breath is steady and even we have an energetic advantage over dealing with the stresses of daily life. Sit in easy pose with the spine straight. The eyes are closed. The hands are in Gyan Mudra. Curl the tongue up on the sides and extend the tongue out of the mouth. This takes a little getting used to, so work with it as best you can. Your posture and form will improve over time. Inhale long, slow, and deep through the curled tongue. Once you have fully inhaled close the mouth and let the tongue rise to touch the upper palate. Then slowly exhale through the nose. Continue for 11 minutes. This meditation has domain over the Ether Element. It is said that those who practice this kriya, "Have all things come to them that they need, by the planetary ether. In mystical terms, heavens shall serve thee."
- Laugh! Laughter is the best medicine. Rent a funny movie and invite someone over to watch it with you. Laughter strengthens the immune systems. There's Robin Williams in the "The Bird Cage" or "Mrs. Doubtfire." Also, Cher in "Moonstruck," and Steve Martin and Meryl Streep in "It's Complicated."
- Mint Refresh: Take a clean face cloth or hand towel and run either very hot or very cold water over it, then wring out the excess water. Get a good quality Peppermint Oil at the health food store. Peppermint Oil can usually be found near the vitamin section and it is typically sold in one ounce glass vials. It is relatively inexpensive. Sprinkle about 5 drops onto the damp face cloth, and then rub the sides of the cloth together so the oil gets into the cloth. Fold the cloth in half, lie down flat on your back on the bed or floor, and place the cloth over your eyes and forehead. Totally relax for 15 minutes. Peppermint helps to relax and detoxify the aura, as well as dispel negative thoughts. This is a particularly good remedy if you have been in a crowded room full of people, or on the phone for a long time with someone who is draining. Mint Refresh to the rescue!
- Let Your Liver Live: The liver is one of the most important organs of the human body. It has dozens of functions. When the liver is congested we begin to feel tired and cranky. If the liver gets really over loaded we become depressed or angry. Nature's way: get a quart of good quality spring water and a fresh lemon. Juice either half or all of the lemon and add the lemon juice to the water. You can add a little maple syrup or honey to taste, but don't go overboard. This simple remedy will help you to feel light and focused, as well as purify the blood. It is a centuries old remedy in many indigenous cultures.
- Clean Teeth: Get your teeth cleaned regularly by a dental hygienist. Plaque buildup allows harmful bacteria to dwell in your mouth. There are now scientific studies that have linked heart disease to the buildup of plaque in the mouth. Amazing! You can easily reduce the stress on your heart by brushing, flossing, and regular dental cleaning.
- Buddy System: One of the best songs ever is "You've Got a Friend" by Carole King (popularized by James Taylor). Create a buddy system by asking someone if they would like to go exercise walking with you 3 times a week. See if there is someone in your yogic community who would be willing to do a 40 day meditation with you, sometimes together, when schedules allow. See if one or two people would like to rotate out a dinner night—dinner at your place the first week, then at one friend's the next week and at another friend's the next week. Create a cozy connection of having happy simple things to look forward to and share. If someone can't cook they can just order a pizza. Much of the pain and neurosis of our modern culture comes from a loss of tradition. When people used to feel stressed they would return home to the family farm for a time out. These days someone may have already sold the farm. Within your present culture and location try to create a foothold of tradition where you and others may feel nurtured and supported. You be the brave one and make the first call.
- Rescue Remedy: Most health food stores carry a line of healing flower essences called "Bach Flower Essences." One of the tinctures is called "Rescue Remedy." It is a combination of five flower essences to help calm you down after a stressful event. It works on a subtle energetic level, and is not a drug. Pick up a vial of Rescue Remedy, and throw it in a knapsack with a quart of water, some trail mix, and a change of clothes. Don't forget the tooth brush! Create for yourself a "Readiness Pack," so if you had just 5 minutes to leave the house you would be reasonably prepared to take care of yourself for 3 days. Use your intelligence and intuition to decide what else you might need for your personal Readiness Pack.
- Keep it Together 'til it Comes Together: This is a very important mantra. Everything happens in cycles. If things seem to be failing apart around you, just know that it is a temporary circumstance. The only thing you have control over is your reaction to the events. You can be the chicken with its head cut off, or you can be the one who starts breathing long, slow, and deep from the navel point. It is necessary to know this is a choice. You are part of the solution when you are stable and steady. Hand of God may place you in certain situations to be an example of a spiritual being who dwells in a place of grace and good will to others. We are the answer.

By Anne Tergesen
A recent survey from Fidelity Investments found that almost 50% of adults made a New Year's resolution about their finances for 2013, with 65% percent of that group resolving to save more for long-term goals, including retirement.
But, as we all know, keeping a resolution is far harder than making one. I recently spoke with Ramit Sethi, an author and entrepreneur who specializes in personal finance, about how to set realistic goals and stick to them. Most people resolve to either lose weight or save money or both, and Sethi says that successful strategies for achieving those two goals have a surprising amount in common. What follows are tips from our interview and from an article Sethi recently wrote on saving money (and calories) when eating out.
Q: Why is it so hard to stick to our New Year's resolutions?
A: People think that if they just try harder, they will succeed. But when it comes to setting and meeting goals, the real key to success is to set ultra-specific goals and then set up systems to implement them.
Q: Can you give me an example?
A: People typically create vague, unspecific resolutions. For example, they might say, "I am going to eat better." But what does that mean? I recommend setting goals that are ultra-specific and designed to hold yourself accountable. For example, instead of saying "I'm going to exercise," say "I'm going to work out for 30 minutes, twice a week before work." That's a very achievable goal. Every time we set a goal and don't achieve it, there is a cost to our self-esteem. So it's better to set a less ambitious goal than to say "I'm going to exercise every day for 90 minutes" and fail.
Q: How would you apply the same logic to personal finance?
A: Rather than make a resolution like "I'm going to pay off my debt," it's better to break the problem down into smaller steps and tackle them one at a time. For example, your first resolution should be to simply make a list of all of your debts to see how much you owe. Then, you can plug your outstanding debt into an online calculator like whatsthecost.com to figure out the order in which to pay the debts off. Your final step should be to build a system to help you meet your goal. When it comes to debt, you can set up a system of automated payments.
(Author's note: Automated payments work well for savings, too, of course. For more on automating your retirement savings, see "Seven Resolutions to Get Your Nest Egg in Shape.")
Q: How can you set up a system for achieving weight loss?
A: One way is to not keep Coke or cookies in the house. Another is to automate your grocery shopping, through an online service. Stock your order with a lot of healthy foods, like fruits and vegetables. The next time you need to order groceries, you can simply instruct the service to send the same order.
A restaurant, of course, is a place where money discipline and diet discipline can converge.What follows are tips on saving money (and calories) while eating out from Sethi, who says he draws on "Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think," by Brian Wansink, a professor of marketing at Cornell University. It's "the absolute best book on food psychology," says Sethi.
- Set up a financial plan, including a savings goal, using the website mint.com or another budgeting tool. How much do you want to spend eating out each month?
- Check the menu online and decide what you're going to eat before you arrive at the restaurant.
- Take out enough cash to pay for your pre-selected dinner before you get to the restaurant.
- Ask a friend who is also trying to lose weight or stick to a budget to be your "restaurant partner." Sethi recommends making the evening's arrangement explicit. For example, say: "I need your help not to order more than $20 tonight. I already picked out what I want to order but I tend to order dessert when I really shouldn't. Can you keep an eye out and make sure I don't order anything beyond the entrée?'" Sethi adds: "When everyone else is ordering a drink, look at each other — you'll remember your agreement beforehand."

Chelsea, Cidade de Nova York Guia de Viagem
Chelsea Resumo
- Great shopping -- an eclectic mix of home design boutiques, antique stores, and sample sales
- Center of the city's contemporary art scene
- Gourmet goodies at the Chelsea Market
- Home to the Hudson River Park and beautiful new High Line Park
- Baseball, basketball, bowling and more at Chelsea Piers
- No subway stations west of 8th Avenue
- At night, some of the far western fringes can feel a bit desolate.
What It's Like
Running from 14th Street to 34th Street on Manhattan's westside, Chelsea is the center of both Manhattan's gay community and, with over 350 art galleries, its contemporary art scene. It's also home to an eclectic mix of home antique stores, design boutiques, and endless sample sales (including the famous Barney's Warehouse Sale), not to mention the Chelsea Market, a former Oreo cookie factory turned foodie paradise chockablock with bakeries, restaurants, and gourmet goodies.
Where to Stay
Great restaurants, bars, shops, and cultural activities -- including the contemporary galleries concentrated in the West Chelsea Arts District (18th to 28th streets between 10th and 11th Avenues) -- share space throughout the neighborhood, though most hotels hover closer to the subway stations on 7th and 8th Avenues. Largely, Chelsea's hotels are great values -- at least when compared to similar hotels father downtown, such as those in SoHo or TriBeCa. Top picks include the Holiday Inn Express, the infamous Hotel Chelsea, and the swankier Maritime, which is also near the clubs in the West Village's Meatpacking District. However, it's worth noting that while the gray, built-up blocks near 30th Street are convenient to many of the city's tourist attractions -- the Empire State Building, Madison Square Garden, and the Penn Station transportation hub are within walking distance -- they're far from pretty.

Hoffman Estates native goes from cop to action star
Andy McDermott works out twice a day.
He also cautiously watches what he eats.
When Andy met WillSo, actor Andy McDermott, Hoffman Estates native and Fremd High School graduate, give us the lowdown on what it was really like to work with Will Ferrell on the set of "Everything Must Go"?
"He could not have been nicer," McDermott said.
"Here he was this superstar and he was so encouraging. He just wanted to hear soccer stories and cop stories from me. He was asking me questions. It was kind of surreal ...
"Later that night, it had been a long day on the set. I remember I was taking my gear off and I felt this hand on my shoulder. It was Will Ferrell, and he's like 6-foot-3.
"He said, 'Andy, I just want you to know that you did a great job and I hope you keep going with this acting thing.' That meant a lot to me. A guy like that certainly doesn't need to go out of his way to be so kind and affirming."
"The next day, I started acting classes."
"Ten years ago I could eat anything I wanted and it didn't matter," the Hoffman Estates native said. "Now, I'm doing this. I could literally get a phone call right now telling me that in three hours, a person wants to see me with my shirt off for the role of a soldier.
"I have to be ready. I don't have the time to get into shape. I have to be in shape."
"This" is acting. And McDermott, a 1994 graduate of Fremd High School in Palatine, has been at it for the past nine months.
The former high school athlete has landed what he hopes will be a recurring role in the upcoming Fox TV series "Enlisted."
His route to the screen was hardly direct.
"After I graduated from Northwestern (communications major/French minor), I played professional soccer for seven years," McDermott said. "Spent a lot of time in the minor leagues with a bunch of real good guys chasing the dream -- avoiding getting a real job was what we were doing."
When his son was born, McDermott figured it was time to move on.
"My best friend got me connected up with what I considered to be the next-most fun job ever: I was a police officer for the Phoenix P.D. for seven years. Attached to the Tactical Response Unit."
Then, the chance for a small part in a film made McDermott re-evaluate the whole "real job" thing.
"Two years ago in Scottsdale, they filmed the movie 'Everything Must Go' with Will Ferrell, Michael Pena, Rebecca Hall and Laura Dern," McDermott said.
"They needed someone to play a police officer, to do about five pages back and forth with Will Ferrell.
"I thought it was crazy, but I went to the audition in my police uniform. They were like, 'Wow! Where did you get that great costume?' I said it's my uniform. I have to go to work after this audition."
He got the job and decided to move to Los Angeles not long after, pursuing a dream he'd nurtured but never had the guts to follow.
"People probably thought we were nuts. We sold our house, gave up our careers and went off to L.A. with four little kids," he said. "We rented a house, sight unseen. That was about nine months ago."
Yes, four kids: two sons, 8 and 6, and two daughters, 3 and 8 months.
McDermott met his wife, Julie O'Donnell, in eighth grade at St. Theresa in Palatine.
"We went to Fremd High School together. I know. It's a cliché! We were high school sweethearts. She was the prom queen," he said. "I was lucky enough to be with her. While I was at Northwestern, she went to the U of I in Champaign, but we stayed together the whole time."
And she's backed up her husband's acting dreams.
"Look, I don't have delusions of grandeur, that I'm going to be an Oscar-winning actor or anything," McDermott said.
"There are a lot of action-adventure films being made. With my background in athletics, martial arts and a cop on a tactical unit, there are a lot of skills I have."
Among them: He's a third-degree black belt in tae kwon do.
"For the indie movie 'Always Faithful,' I did the stunt choreography, plus I played the bad guy. That was fun for me to stage a movie fight, then be in the fight."
How does the job market look right now?
"I've been rejected more in the last nine months than I have in the last 37 years," he said. "Hundreds of auditions. One for the pilot of 'Beverly Hills Cop.' I hope that gets picked up. I might have a recurring role.
"I did another pilot for a half-hour Fox comedy 'Enlisted.' I'm hoping they'll need me on the set to be in a few episodes."
McDermott's parents have left Hoffman Estates for Arizona, but his in-laws still live in Palatine. Some family members had trouble understanding why he'd give up a stable job to move to Hollywood.
"Everybody in my family thinks we're crazy! Nuts!" he said.=
McDermott's not sorry, though. "When they see something on TV I've done, or see me modeling for an ad in a national magazine, they can say, 'He's working hard. He's chasing the dream.'
"You only have one life. We didn't want to have regrets. We wanted no regrets."

What is forex?
Forex is the international market for the free trade of currencies. Traders place orders to buy one currency with another currency. For example, a trader may want to buy Euros with US dollars, and will use the forex market to do this.
The forex market is the world's largest financial market. Over $4 trillion dollars worth of currency are traded each day. The amount of money traded in a week is bigger than the entire annual GDP of the United States!
The main currency used for forex trading is the US dollar.
When did forex start?
As the world continued to tear itself apart in the Second World War, there was an urgent need for financial stability. International negotiators from 29 countries met in Bretton Woods and agreed to a new economic system where, amongst other things, exchange rates would be fixed.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) was established under the Bretton Woods agreement, and started to operate in 1949. All exchange rates changes above 1% had to be approved by the IMF, which had the effect of freezing these rates.
By the late 1960?s the fixed exchange rate system started to break down, due to a number of international political and economic factors. Finally, in 1971, President Nixon stopped the US dollar being converted directly to gold, as part of a set of measures designed to stem the collapse of the US economy. This was known as the Nixon shock, and lead to floating rate currency markets being established in early 1973. By 1976, all major currencies had floating exchange rates.
With floating rates, currencies could be traded freely, and the price changed based on market forces. The modern forex market was born.
Who trades on the forex market?
There are many different players in the forex market. Some trade to make profits, others trade to hedge their risks and others simply need foreign currency to pay for goods and services. The participants include the following:
- Government central banks
- Commercial banks
- Investment banks
- Brokers and dealers
- Pension funds
- Insurance companies
- International corporations
- Individuals
When is the forex market open?
Unlike stock exchanges, which have limited opening hours, the forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week. Banks need to buy and sell currency around the clock, and the forex market has to be open for them to do this.
What factors influence currency exchange rates?
As with any market, the forex market is driven by supply and demand:
- If buyers exceed sellers, prices go up
- If sellers outnumber buyers, prices go down
The following factors can influence exchange rates:
- National economic performance
- Central bank policy
- Interest rates
- Trade balances – imports and exports
- Political factors – such as elections and policy changes
- Market sentiment – expectations and rumours
- Unforeseen events – terrorism and natural disasters
Despite all these factors, the global forex market is more stable than stock markets; exchange rates change slowly and by small amounts.
What are the advantages of the forex market?
The forex market has many advantages. These include the following:
- It's already the world's largest market and it's still growing quickly
- It makes extensive use of information technology – making it available to everyone
- Traders can profit from both strong and weak economies
- Trader can place very short-term orders – which are prohibited in some other markets
- The market is not regulated
- Brokerage commissions are very low or non-existent
- The market is open 24 hours a day during weekdays

Somewhere between a baritone guitar and a bass lives this wild beast with active pickups and a set neck.
Tuned one octave below standard tuning, the Schecter HELLRAISER C-VI Electric Guitar is an improvement over the 6-string bass of the early '60s. This model features a set neck for added sustain and durability. The C-VI is the perfect instrument for guitarists who want to add depth to their sonic arsenal. With its 30" scale, it can be strummed like a guitar or plucked like a bass. EMG Active 81/89R Pickups with coil-tapping and 3-way switch are on board to offer a wide variety of humbucker and single-coil type tones.The contoured mahogany body is topped with a fine layer of Quilted maple for added beauty and tone. A TonePros bridge and Schecter locking tuners permit perfect intonation and accurate tuning.
Schecter Locking Tuners
Schecter Locking Tuners feature a locking screw pin to lock the string into place for greater tuning stability. Details include a 19:1 gear ratio allowing for precise fine tuning adjustments, removable knobs, threaded peghead bushing, and a 10mm diameter peg hole.
Rosewood Finger Board
The most common fretboard, Rosewood is naturally oily, and works well for any surface that sees frequent human contact. The sound is richer in fundamental than Maple because the stray overtones are absorbed into the oily pores.
EMG Active 81tw/89R Pickups
Bridge: The 81TW dual-mode design allows for maximum flexibility, with the original 81 providing all the crunch and aggressiveness it's famous for and an all new single-coil that features a fatter tone with plenty of punch and clarity. Neck: The EMG 89 is loaded with alnico V magnets and has separate preamps each providing custom outputs for both dual coil and single coil modes (R Version use REAR coil ). In dual coil mode, the sound is rich, warm and powerful, but still very clear and is simila
3-pc Mahogany w/Carbon Fiber Rods Neck
Made with 3 pieces of mahogany for extra stability. Where standard necks may show aging defects throughout the years, the 3 piece neck will remain straight for a lifetime of playability. Two Carbon Fiber Rods are installed next to the Truss Rod for extra stability. Stronger than an equivalent volume of steel, Carbon Fiber can supplement an adjustable truss rod to help prevent neck twisting. Carbon Fiber adds little weight, but adds significant stiffness.

Uhhh, no. She just could feel him with her Brand. While it's likely not something the God Hand intended, we've seen that the Brand allows those who carry it to feel the presence of evil and other supernatural beings with surprising accuracy. See for example how Guts could tell Flora was a witch upon seeing her, but also knew she wasn't evil. So Casca, while she was insane, could recognize her son instinctively as a mother through that particular sensation.
That's why she could tell it was him even when Griffith showed up in volume 22
If that's the case, why Guts don't recognise him? He has been in contact with his son plenty of time before (probably even more than Casca), and he's way more familiar with the brand than Casca. In fact I don't recall at any point Guts noticing any reaction from his brand coming from his son's current form.
The pain she feel at this time and the amount/way the blood was dripping from the brand was clearly the same as when Guts faced Griffith in the black swordmans arc, just toned down. I highly doubt she could have recognised her son in that.
Guts never had as keen a sense for him as Casca did. Meanwhile, literally every time the boy appears Casca is shown sensing him through her Brand.
Really, you shouldn't be arguing with me if you don't even remember the scene. Casca felt her son's presence from far away, while she was eating with Erika and Puck inside the cabin. She ran to him in the snow, and called out to him as she literally has done in every encounter with him, not caring about danger at all. And when the boy forced Griffith to save her, she reached for him despite the excruciating pain (which, understandably, greatly confused Guts). Then she is shown longing for him after he departs. There is absolutely no doubt she recognized her son in that scene.
Also, what make you think Guts don't identify his ftus form through the brand as well as Casca?
I agree with all that. What I don't agree with is that Casca recognised her son in Griffith through her brand specifically.
I guess you mean in his ftus form, because as the moonlight boy, there is no mention of either Guts or Casca sensing him through the Brands (I verified).
Also, what make you think Guts don't identify his ftus form through the brand as well as Casca? I've no problem reading Berserk again, but it's gonna take me a while if I have to read everything again to find the concerned part.
Thanks for the info! At first I was surprised that volume 39 isn't available yet, but then I remembered it took them years to stock the more recent ones after they launched this online store. I hope they'll make it available faster this time.
If Wikipedia is correct, today is the 28th Anniversary of Berserk.Congratulation Miura Sensei
Pretty sure it's October 1989, with no known date. Source: http://berserk.fan.coocan.jp/archive_ah.html#ah89_10
Pretty sure it's October 1989, with no known date. Source: http://berserk.fan.coocan.jp/archive_ah.html#ah89_10Also, when Young Animal celebrated the 20th anniversary of Berserk back in 2009, it was in the October issue.
Animal House was released on the 25th of each month, so it was October 25, 1989. They at least got that right!
Um, cover date isn't the publishing date, though. For a monthly magazine, it wouldn't have been published in the same month as the cover date. The date on a magazine cover is for newsstands to pull unsold issues from their stands.
The issues of Animal House that I own have stamps on the top and bottom that seem to have dates 2 months ahead of the cover date, from the 22nd to the 24th. I may be wrong though, I'm not sure what the first number before 11.22 indicates.This is from the January 1991 issue.
Ah, good call, mine also do and the dates fit. No idea about that number "2" though. It doesn't seem to change and obviously doesn't refer to the year... Maybe an indication of how many months separate printing from cover date?
My December 1990 and January 1991 have "2" but March 1991, November 1991, and February 1992 have "3".
Not to complicate matters further (well, a little)... but what about the 1988 prototype? It's technically not the first issue of course, which is its own milestone, but for the anniversay of Berserk itself it's still Berserk in its earliest tangeable form practically speaking (think of it like a band demo that leads to the first album =). So, the de facto 30th anniversary is arguably just next year. Any idea what date Miura "released" or presented it?
That would be November 26, 1988: http://berserk.fan.coocan.jp/archive_ah.html#comicomi
I think you might be able to call that "Guts' Debut" or something, but that's not really "Berserk"
That first number could signify the number of years for Animal House (like a "Volume" and a "Number"). That's how newspapers are categorized when they're archived, each year is a volume. Animal House was started in March 1989, so that'd be year 1. Year 2 is March 1990-Feb 1991, and so on.
Also, that thin vertical line next to the 2 in Sareth's post could be a faded 年.

Moore Foundation announces gift to 'Imiloa Astronomy Center
Funding will support teaching Big Island school children the culture, history and scientific wisdom of Hawaiʻi's peoples and its connection to WesterUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Hilo
UH Foundation
The ʻImiloa Astronomy Center of Hawaiʻi has an ambitious goal: Over the next two years, they want every student on the Big Island, grades kindergarten through 12, to visit. And with the generous support of the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, that goal is within reach.
The ʻImiloa Astronomy Center has become a popular venue for youth group field trips. "We are extremely excited about this opportunity to provide a greater educational outreach to Hawaiʻi's school children," said Kaʻiu Kimura, associate director of the Center. "We hope our communities will contribute to these hands-on learning experiences. The areas of science, technology, engineering and math are sorely underserved. We believe that by connecting science through culture and creating relevance in our educational programs, we can stimulate a renewed excitement of these studies for our younger generations."
Teachers will be given curriculum in advance to prepare for the trip and build students' excitement and understanding of the topics shared at ʻImiloa. Post-visit lesson plans are being developed to encourage continued learning.
Students give the Center high marks. "The shows in the Planetarium were fantastic. It was like we were touching the stars," said Kate. "ʻImiloa is a splendid place," said Kai. "I learned a lot of things about space, and I am now interested in being an astronomer."
"The pilot project ʻAdopt-a-Class,' established last year in Hilo by local businessman Richard Ha motivated the Moore Foundation to make this grant to ʻImiloa," said Jim Omura, Senior Program Officer at the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. "In the ʻAdopt-a-Class' initiative, community groups collaborated and adopted classes at Keaukaha Elementary School where admission to ʻImiloa allowed school children to visit free of charge. We felt that this was a great initiative and we hope that the Moore Foundation grant will help to generate even more community support for education on the Big Island."
Located on a nine-acre campus above the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo, the Center features a spectacular architectural design, the state's largest planetarium, interactive exhibits, group tours, a café and frequently hosts unique and fun events. It has become Hawaiʻi's premiere facility for interpreting the deepest mysteries of the universe being unraveled atop Maunakea through a Hawaiian worldview. With leadership from UH Chancellor Rose Tseng and with committed support from Senator Daniel Inouye and the Hawaiʻi Island community, a team of scientists and Hawaiian language educators developed the Center to meet the need for a comprehensive educational facility that would showcase the connections between the rich traditions of Hawaiian culture and the groundbreaking astronomical research conducted on Maunakea. ʻImiloa opened its doors to the public in February of 2006.
In order to encourage community support for education on the Big Island, the Moore Foundation's $670,000 grant contains a 2 to 1 matching element. The UH Foundation and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation extend an invitation to the community to make sure all Hawaiʻi schoolchildren have the opportunity to visit. You can donate online at www.uhf.hawaii.edu/support (select "Imiloa Astronomy Center," then "Moore Matching Fund"), or by calling 808.979.9732 or mailing contributions to the ʻImiloa Development Office at 600 ʻImiloa Place, Hilo, HI 96720 ATTN: Visit ʻImiloa, Moore Matching Fund.
"During the last academic year, more than 8,000 elementary school students from the Big Island, neighbor islands, the mainland, Saipan, Okinawa and Japan visited," said UH Hilo Chancellor Rose Tseng. "Who knows? Perhaps among them was the future scientist who will help unravel the mysteries of deep space."

The Ken Wilber Sessions—An Unprecedented Audio Learning Experience
Before the birth of the universe, there existed your Original Face, the limitless Self that has been present throughout the unfolding of inert matter into life—and that continues to dwell within us at every level of consciousness. Where is this grand evolution taking us, and how can each of us participate in it more fully? On Kosmic Consciousness, Ken Wilber invites you to find out.
Since the first publication of his groundbreaking ideas at the age of 23, Ken Wilber has sought to bring together the world's far-ranging spiritual teachings, philosophies, and scientific truths into one coherent and all-embracing vision. This "integral" map of the Kosmos (the universe that includes the physical cosmos as well as the realms of consciousness and Spirit) offers an unprecedented guide to discovering your highest potentials.
Now, this legendary author invites you to discover these insights in his first full-length audio learning course. In 10 fascinating sessions, Wilber pursues questions especially relevant to spiritual seekers: What are the most effective tools for "jumping" to the next level in your spiritual, creative, and cognitive development? Does prayer work? How do women and men experience consciousness differently? Is subtle energy real and, if so, how do we harness it? Why is developing "witness consciousness" so crucial for self-realization? Can we cultivate infinite love by loving one, finite person? What, exactly, does "kosmic consciousness" feel like?
One of our greatest possibilities, teaches Wilber, is "to balance and harmonize our experiences at whatever stage of growth we are in—and to deepen our capacity for compassion, consciousness, and care." For Ken Wilber's many avid readers, and anyone who has been waiting for a highly accessible invitation to his work, here is one of the most significant thinkers of our time—spontaneous, passionate, irreverent—sharing a feast of ideas to inspire you on your evolution toward Kosmic Consciousness.
Kosmic Consciousness Highlights:
- The "one taste" of the Kosmos
- Quadrants, lines, states, types, and stages—a complete introduction to the Integral Map
- Assessing your constellation of "multiple intelligences"
- The Good, the True, and the Beautiful—three realms of experience explored
- How meditation works, and why it is the most reliable tool for personal development
- Feminine and masculine drives—how our biology influences our spiritual evolution
- The chakra system, a paradigm for the unfolding self
- Integral insights for artists, businesspeople, and athletes
- Altered states of consciousness—how they can catalyze (or hinder) transformation
- Sexuality and lovemaking in the gross, subtle, and causal bodies
- The"pre-trans fallacy," an essential insight for evaluating spiritual tools, traditions, and teachers
- How fearlessness grows as your sense of self expands
- Four definitions of spirituality
- The ego—is it a vehicle or an obstacle to awakening?
- Lucid dreaming, astrology, brain machines, and the Enneagram—integral perspectives
- Mystical experiences in nature—a window into spirit
- How love "re-wires" the self
- Could your dog be an enlightened master?
- Basic moral intuition—a compass for our actions in the world
- Cultural "centers of gravity" and how they influence us
- Reincarnation—myth or provable phenomenon?
- What does an enlightened teacher "transmit"?
- Ascending, descending, and "nondual" spiritual paths
- Tantra and the "embrace of heaven and earth"
- More than 12 hours of insights in a rare series of meetings with Ken Wilber

Review for Kosmic Consciousness Review by Al Hall
Unparalleled, if your looking to make sense of the complexity's of this world this is an amazing listen. A great overview of Kens work. (Posted on February 11, 2014)
Review for Kosmic Consciousness Review by Crista D
The audio is relatively easy to understand and I recommend it as a way to get to know Ken Wilber's work. I hadn't read any of his books before listening but now I'm hooked. (Posted on March 8, 2013)
Review for Kosmic Consciousness Review by Bill T
Ken is a genius of the highest caliber. He created an abstract framework on which to classify all events in reality. This is the equivalent of creating something like mathematics which has no reality except in the mind yet allows a deep measurement and understanding of natural events.
Before listening to this, I was awakened but still confused about the underlying nature of humans. After listening to this, all experience made sense. I was able to classify where people are developmentally and "see" where they are stuck. I knew the next step for them on their path.
This is possibly the best product I've ever bought. For under $100 I was taken from chaotic thinking into brilliant clarity which has only deepened over the past few years. (Posted on December 27, 2012)
Review for Kosmic Consciousness Review by Katherine W
Ken and Tammy are always amazing and this audio is filled with inspiring conversations between the two of them.
I was quite disappointed, however, to find that there was no table of contents for this 12 hour audio series. Not even titles for the each of the main tracks. When I called to ask customer service if there was a table of contents anywhere to be found, I found the woman who assisted me to be indifferent to my problem (I had heard the audio once before and needed to find a specific conversation on it in order to complete some research for a project I was working on, which unfortunately I was never able to find). Because of the lack of what I would consider proper packaging (table of contents) coupled with the lack of care of the customer service rep, I'm not sure I would purchase anything from Sounds True again. I would expect more from such a fine company. Hopefully, this review will help Sounds True improve their packaging in the future. (Posted on November 20, 2012)

Last Ditch Effort to Save 'Last Ditch'
Another confusion that has been brought to my attention recently is the phrase "last-ditch effort". Some speakers are now bringing it out of the dirt, cleaning it up, and taking it for "last-stitch effort".
The metaphor here comes from the military and refers to a stand in the last trench. Thomas Jefferson wrote of "a government . . . driven to the last ditch by the universal call for liberty." It is interesting to note that the phrase seems to be dying out but the adjective, last-ditch, clings on to life. Well, we need to cling on to both of them.
