Was so happy Kurt got home! :). The pugs were as well. They seemed shocked when he walked in the door, as that is the longest the pugs and I have been at home without Kurt in 15 years!
Anyway, his trip was very busy, but went well. He got 6 veneers on his top teeth while there, in Tamarindo, at the only place he could find that could do the work that quickly. They turned out gorgeous. But, the main point of the trip was looking at the land in Bijagual. Bijagual is near Jaco, which like I have said before, is my fav city in the world. The piece of land we are looking at is 100 acres. Kurt hiked and saw a lot of it on horseback.
There was a portion of it that had been cleared at one point into 5 lots for houses (I think the owners were hoping to turn it into a small subdivision), and the rest of it is mostly primary and secondary rain forest, with some farm land as well. Which is pretty much what we want. Also, the land is part of some government program where we can have them come in and plant any kind of tree we want if we want to reforest any part of the cleared land. We would like to be somewhat self sufficient, so I would love lots of fruit trees for that purpose. I guess there are waterfalls and a lot of really pretty creeks and stuff on the land as well. Sounds pretty perfect. It is about 15 minutes from the ocean and another 10 minutes to Jaco. we are waiting on some other information on the property from our realtor, but it seems great (we would build a house on it, there is no house). Which is fine with me, since most costa rican houses I see are not really built in the style I would prefer. Jaco was having a huge surfing tourney while Kurt was there, and the reservation I made him at a room was not honored. So, he had to find another place, but found one pretty quickly. All went well with his flights, which I was happy about because I was worried about Kurt flying without me since he hates it. A lot of turbulence on one flight, and one small delay, but other than that, all was good.
We have, of course, been super busy since he got home.
We went today and bought racquets, balls, and goggles for playing racquetball at the gym. We are going to teach ourselves soon. I am hoping its a fun way to get cardio in to mix in with running, jumping rope and biking. I just can't make myself like running outdoors, so I am trying to make working out indoors more interesting. It has been under 30 degrees out here, and is crazy cold.
Friday, a Seattle based documentary writer met up with Kurt for most of the afternoon. I had lunch with him and he was a super nice guy, really interested in everything related to Flight 253 and the aftermath. I am curious to see how the film comes out. Anything we can do to open the American people's eyes to the lies and deceit going on behind the scenes, we will take part in.
I finally found a great red winter coat to buy on ideeli.com. Came in the mail today and thankfully, it fits perfectly. Yay. Marked WAY down too, which makes me happy. Kurt says it makes me look *skinny*, so I was even more happy after that! ;).
Also, got another scarf in the mail this week that I got an AMAZING deal on Shopbop.com this week. Scarf is adorable and super soft. I can tell Im cold lately since I am obsessed with scarves.
I started using the weight room part of the gym today. I have decided I want to tone up my arms more. I already see some muscle tone, but I want everything in my arms, chest, shoulders to be rock hard. So, gotta start lifting more. I am thankful for running though, as that in itself has really started the toning process. I need to buy a one piece swimsuit as well, as I want to start swimming in the pool at the gym, since I want to do a tri next summer.
Am counting down the days to Jamaica!!!!
Hope everyone is well!
Hope everyone is well!

Patrik Aufdenblatten
Patrik Aufdenblatten was born in Zermatt, a little town in Switzerland surrounded by mountains. During his childhood he was already fascinated by mountaineering and skiing. At the age of eight Patrik climbed a 4100m high mountain, six years later he ascented the Matterhorn via the Hörnli ridge for the first time.
During his education, Patrik spent a lot of time with sport and ice climbing. He succeeded to climb a few 8b+ and ice falls grated WI6+. By and by Patrik got into mixed and crack climbing as well as big walls.
In 2007 the 19 year old could freeclimb 'Freerider' at El Cap, Yosemite. With this achievement he was the youngest ever to do a free ascent at the El Cap.
Because of extensive training in mixed areas, Patrik managed to climb many M11 and was one of the strongest in the ice climbing world cups.
In 2009 he finished the commercial school and started the formation as a ski instructor. Therefore, he had enough time to travel. In Gritstone, Patrik climbed a lot of easy lines. After this he visited Indian Creek where he could climb many classic routes such as Air Sweden(R5.13) Less than zero (5.13-) and others.

George Jones' Grave Gets Special Visitor
A man and his best friend -- reunited!
George Jones, who passed away in April of this year, is much missed by his family and the country music community, including his fellow artists and his large cluster of fans. He is also undoubtedly missed by his dog, Bandit, who went to visit her daddy's grave earlier this month.
A photo of Bandit watching over her master's final resting place was posted on Jones' Facebook page, captioned as such: "Bandit went to see her Daddy yesterday."
It is a sweet and heartwarming image, one that might make you well up if you are a pet owner. Canines are pretty tuned into their human owners and their emotions, and they are known creatures of habit who are distinctly affected by change, so it wouldn't be a stretch to suggest that Bandit is likely missing her owner these days.
It is a touching photo of the dog, whose paw is perched ever so gingerly on Jones' gravestone, which is surrounded by flowers and American flags. It reminds us that our fur babies are equal members of our families, too.

Mobile application platform developer Pyxis Mobile has launched Version 7.1 of its software suite, which features native support for Google's Android operating system.
According to Todd Christy, President and CTO of Pyxis Mobile, "The explosive growth of the Android OS is a clear indicator that the enterprise needs to expand its mobility strategy to include support for end users who have adopted these new devices."
Pyxis Mobile makes it possible for enterprises to leverage the excitement around new devices by providing users with valuable business applications that run on the devices that they chose. Rather than custom developing applications for each device operating system separately, Pyxis Mobile's customers use the company's platform software to deliver packaged rich client applications that automatically run natively across many devices.
Other features in Pyxis Mobile 7.1 include multiplatform image and styling consistency, configurable screen transitions, rich and interactive usage reporting, video support, highly flexible push, and much more. These features are configured once in Application Studio and available immediately across supported mobile devices.

Reading Coulter (If You Must)
Research ››› ››› MICHELLE JEUNG
The final chapter of Ann Coulter's latest book, How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must): The World According to Ann Coulter (Crown Forum, October 2004), is comprised of Coulter columns that publications rejected. Media Matters for America has reviewed the chapter, titled "What You Could Have Read If You Lived in a Free Country," and has catalogued passages from the four previously unpublished articles -- which Coulter refers to as the columns "editors didn't want you to see."
National Review asked for an article on "feminist legal theory." The following excerpts are from Coulter's resulting article, titled "Call Me Ms.":
- The real reason I loathe and detest feminists is that real feminists, the core group, the Great Thinkers of the movement, which I had until now dismissed as the invention of a frat boy on a dare, have been at the forefront in tearing down the very institutions that protect women: monogamy, marriage, chastity, and chivalry. And surveying the wreckage, the best they have to offer is: "Call me Ms." [p. 324]
- Now, I have no dispute with gay men, but I consider an evening out sorely incomplete if it does not include at least one heterosexual member of the opposite sex. [p. 327]
- I hate to give the game away, but men were essentially put on earth to serve women. [...] Back in the prelapsarian fifties, women worked if they happened to fall into the .01 percent of the population who were able to have interesting jobs or they retired in their twenties to raise children and, incidentally, do what all serious people would like to do anyway -- be a dilettante in many subjects. As far as I'm concerned this was a division of labor nothing short of perfect. Men worked, women didn't. [...] To the extent one gender is oppressing the other, it's not women who should be complaining. [p. 327]
Cigar Aficionado magazine commissioned a column on campaign finance reform. From Coulter's resulting article, "This Congressman Bought for You by the New York Times":
- [U.S. Representative Chris] Shays (R-CT) was one of only five Republicans to vote against the impeachment of a lying, felonious president. I'm hopping mad about it, to the point that I want to commit an act of free speech against him. [p. 331] [...] Without limitation or consultation with fancy lawyers, I could spend a million dollars producing speech of the Debbie Does Dallas variety. But if I want to engage in speech of the "Vote Against Chris Shays" variety, I can only spend $2,000. It is easier to pander obscenity than it is to engage in core First Amendment Speech. [p. 332]
- Of course, for bribing politicians, nothing beats owning a newspaper. Newspapers like the New York Times have absolutely no limitations on running editorials exhorting, "Vote for Chris Shays" -- as that paper did in violation of an almost uninterrupted, century-long tradition of endorsing only Democrats. Nor are there any restrictions on how often the Times can run "news" articles describing Chris Shays as a "moderate." [...] It was a wise investment. Shays voted against almost every member of his party -- but with the Times -- on the not insignificant issue of a President's impeachment. [...] I'm not saying free speech can't function as a bribe. I just think private citizens ought to be able to bribe politicians as easily as the New York Times does. [p. 333]
Coulter submitted an unsolicited article titled "Sally Does Monticello" to The Wall Street Journal. According to Coulter, "the Journal turned it down, explaining they just weren't interested in the topic. A few weeks later, they asked someone else to write about the exact same topic."
From Coulter's "Sally Does Monticello":
- An editorial in the Washington Post promptly denounced Jefferson for carrying on "a private sexual partnership with an inherited young slave girl" and proclaimed that having sex with slaves smacked of racism -- separate and apart, evidently, from merely holding them as property. It was as if Jefferson was morally obligated to carry on exploitative relationships with Latina, Asian, and Caucasian chattel as well, just for the sake of appearances.[p. 338]
Good Housekeeping magazine asked Coulter to write about a proverb. From Coulter's "If You Sup with the Devil, Use a Long Spoon":
- Satan takes the form of gorgeous actresses, successful politicians, and pop icons cavorting across the gossip columns, subliminally exhorting the reader: Be like me! Don't be a prude! This is how the glamorous people live! [p. 343]
- When you go along with the in crowd and don't speak out against liars, against promiscuity, against abortion, you are taking a step closer to the devil.[p. 343]

By now the holidays may seem like a distant memory: people are watching their waistlines and stuffing decorations into dark basement corners. But that doesn't mean we've heard the last of the 2013 holiday season. So before you start breaking your new resolutions, let's recap the impact of Nielsen's holiday ratings book, which spanned the four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas when holiday programming fills the audio spectrum all across the country.
Last month, in the build-up to the holiday bonanza that stretches between America's two major end-of-year celebrations, we noticed that the early impact of Christmas music seemed to have changed the playing field among the major music formats in Nielsen's portable people meter (PPM) markets when compared with the trends of years past. Now, with the release of the Holiday book, we're finding that the final scorecard for this season of Christmas programming managed to level out and, with a few notable exceptions, mirror the results seen in previous years.
Overall, Adult Contemporary (AC) is the leading format when it comes to holiday programming every year in Nielsen's portable people meter (PPM) markets. And 2013 was no exception—it claimed the top spot in both the 6+ and 25-54 demographics, overtaking News/Talk and Pop Contemporary Hit Radio (CHR), respectively. It also held the second position with 18-34 year-old listeners (Pop CHR remained #1) bypassing Country in December. But the story doesn't end there; AC's older sibling—soft AC—made more noise this year. And a few other major formats also saw their results buck the trend of years past.
Below are some highlights from Nielsen's Holiday PPM data across 45 markets* using the full-week (Mon-Sun 6 a.m.-midnight) daypart and audience shares for the 6+ demographic.
|Format (6+ share)
|% change Nov12 – Holiday12
|% change Nov13 – Holiday13
|Soft AC
|Adult Contemporary
|Hot AC
|Urban AC
|Classic Hits
|Rhythmic CHR
|Pop CHR
|Mexican Regional

While less pie right now may sound appealing to your New Year's resolutions, it was the reality on the airwaves this December. As we suspected during last month's recap of the first half of December numbers, radio's Christmas music audience has been shrinking for the past several years. Combining the shares for AC and Soft AC—the two formats that devote more stations to Christmas programming than any other—the holiday programming pie was nearly a full share-point smaller this season compared with 2011.
|Format (6+ share)
|Holiday 2011
|Holiday 2012
|Holiday 2013
|Soft AC
|Source: Nielsen
Of course, 2013's shortened holiday season may have contributed to this decline in holiday hits. Due to the way the calendar fell, 2013 had slightly less than four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas (when the bulk of holiday programming is aired), down from 2012's season that was just shy of five weeks between the two holidays. However, since Christmas comes just once a year, we'll have to hold out for next December to see if this trend continues.
*Nielsen Audio officially has 48 measured PPM markets, but three of them (Nassau-Suffolk, Middlesex-Somerset-Union, and San Jose) are included in the larger New York and San Francisco metro areas. Therefore, the listening stats from those markets are included in our study even though we did not break them out separately.

I was shocked by the comments made last week while I was at the grocery store. A gentleman approached me and asked how everything was going with the town, and then proceeded to tell me how disappointed he was that we were doing so little with the May River. He must have noticed my mouth drop to the floor. Then I realized that if our citizens don't come to our monthly council meetings or follow our updates on the web, then they really don't realize how much money, time and effort the town is spending on this critical issue. Continue reading and you will see some great news that have come from all of the hard work by our staff and community.
The stormwater division has a staff with diverse skill sets dedicated to protecting our waterways. This team has been equipped with the latest gear and specialized software to develop a computer model of the May River Watershed which helps us understand the current condition of the river and predict future effects of new projects and best management practices.
These tools also help us check the effectiveness of the various stormwater projects already in progress which include new construction, retrofit of existing infrastructure, and measures to reduce volume and treat stormwater before it reaches the May River. Some projects wouldn't be possible without the cooperation of forward-thinking landowners.
Credit also goes to the many residents and stakeholders who served on various committees leading up to Town Council's approval of the May River Watershed Action Plan, with an advisory committee to guide on-going programs. Experts from all levels of government give willingly of their time and knowledge along with representatives from higher education and the nonprofit sector. The town of Bluffton and Beaufort County continue to work together with these partners on watershed protection.
Homeowners and businesses participate in activities such as rain gardens, rain barrels, buffer gardens, pet waste stations, and community education. One such event, The Annual Beach/River Sweep was Saturday at Oyster Factory Park. This program united volunteers around the state in the largest one-day event dedicated to the preservation of our waterways.
With all of the work in progress, it is about time to get some great news. DHEC's shellfish manager noted seven special permit holders, including the Bluffton Oyster Factory, were allowed to start harvesting oysters on Sept. 1 to be followed by the regular season on Sept. 15. According to DHEC, a portion of the previously-restricted shellfish harvesting area from eastern Gascoigne Bluff to near Linden Plantation Road is being opened. This area totals about 21.5 acres of harvestable shellfish grounds that have been reopened in the May River. With the help of dedicated citizens, volunteers, and staff, we can work together to return the May River to its full glory and ensure protection of all watersheds here in the town of Bluffton.
If you ever have questions about our wonderful town, don't hesitate to contact Town Hall at 706-4500 or email Lisa Sulka at firstname.lastname@example.com.

5 DIY Feel-Good Beauty Treatments
George Doyle/Getty Images
Get Glowing in the A.M.
Rather than sprinting for the coffeepot after you roll out of bed, reach for your toes. "Stretching loosens your muscles, revs up your circulation, and helps your skin look rosy," says Eva Ritvo, MD, coauthor of The Beauty Prescription. Next, dab a drop of eucalyptus oil inside each nostril and step into the shower. The steam will help create an energizing aroma, says Hope Gillerman, founder of H. Gillerman Organics in New York City. Afterward, as you're putting on your usual facial moisturizer, apply pressure along your brow bones and temples as well as underneath your cheekbones to eliminate any morning puffiness, says Caroline Rushworth, director of education for Decléor in Darien, Connecticut.
Sara Forrest
Power Through Midday Deadlines
Before you tackle a tough assignment, take a mini break at your desk. Bend down, grab your ankles, and take five deep breaths, Rushworth suggests. "Increased blood flow to the brain will not only energize you but also bring oxygen and nutrients to your skin for a perked-up glow." Then spritz your face with an invigorating mist. "It gives you a boost and hydrates your skin," says Elizabeth Vislocky, lead aesthetician for Jurlique in New York City. Avoid water sprays, which can pull moisture out of the skin when they evaporate. Instead, look for an alcohol-free mist with hydrators like aloe vera. Try Walker's Apothecary Rose Geranium Toner ($16, walkersapothecary.com).
Ericka McConnell
Beat an Afternoon Slump
Skip the candy jar in favor of a quick self-massage. Take a dab of citrus- or peppermint-scented lotion or oil — studies show that the smell of citrus can evoke a happy mood and that a peppermint fragrance can improve alertness and memory — and rub it onto your earlobes, working upward. "Massaging your ears can help release endorphins in your body, allowing you to feel revitalized," Rushworth says. We like Weleda Citrus Refreshing Body Oil ($21, usa.weleda.com) and Ole Henriksen Muscle Comfort Lotion ($28, olehenriksen.com) with peppermint oil. Or mix a drop of peppermint essential oil with a bit of lip balm and rub it onto the back of your neck and shoulders to give your muscles an instant boost, Vislocky suggests.
Deborah Jaffe
Cool Down Post-Gym
Tame any sweat-induced inflammation by keeping a cloth packed in ice and cucumber slices in a plastic bag in your gym locker and placing it on your face after your workout. The chill will constrict blood vessels that have become dilated during exercise, helping you to cool down faster, and the cucumber alleviates irritation, says Amy Wechsler, MD, a dermatologist in New York City. Or apply a soothing face mask, like Yes to Cucumbers Calming Facial Mask ($15, drugstores). Cleanse with a refreshing, skin-cooling body wash infused with menthol, mint, lemongrass, or citric acid, recommends Cornelia Zicu, chief creative officer for Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spas in Stamford, Connecticut. We like Gud Natural Body Wash in Orange Petalooza Blood Orange & Hyacinth ($7, drugstores).
Greg Scheidemann
Unwind Before Bed
Prep for sleep by making a cup of chamomile tea with two tea bags. When you've finished drinking it, place the cool tea bags over your eyes and cover them with a sleep mask for a soothing treatment, Rushworth says. Leave on for about 10 minutes, then cleanse your face thoroughly. When applying face wash, massage your jaw muscles to help relax your entire body. Before you hit the pillow, spritz a lavender-scented linen mist, like Caldrea Linen and Room Spray in Lavender Pine ($9, caldrea.com), onto a tissue and slip it underneath your pillowcase. "The scent will waft through the fabric during the night, helping you to calm down and sleep soundly," Zicu says.

Feel-Good Finds
A new crop of pampering products claim to improve your mood with calming or invigorating scents and textures. FITNESS staffers put them to the test.
1. Hard Candy Glossaholic Rise & Shine Energizing Lip Gloss ($5, Walmart stores)
"It has a coffee scent that perked me right up when I needed a midday boost. I was even able to skip my usual caffeine fix."
— Colleen Moody, Web editor
2. Aveeno Positively Nourishing Calming Body Wash ($7, drugstores)
"The fragrance of this creamy cleanser was really relaxing — perfect to use before bed."
— Christie Griffin, digital director
3. Lollia Relax Shea Butter Handcreme ($24, beauty.com)
"Slathering on this lotion after a long run and a hot shower made me feel as if I just left a spa. The sweet honey aroma put me in a good mood."
— Jenna Autuori-Dedic, fitness editor
4. Origins Calm to Your Senses Lavender and Vanilla Oil for Bath and Body ($23, origins.com)
"This was a quick, luxurious treat after my nighttime shower. It left my skin smooth, and the comforting scent lingered."
— Karina Dearwood, associate photo editor
5. Murad Energizing Pomegranate Cleanser ($26, murad.com)
"I used this foamy wash in the morning, and the revitalizing fragrance helped me get going. It made my skin glow, too."
— Alyson Kaufman, sittings intern

I came across two separate items in the past 24 hours and I put them together to make a trend. (!) First, there's a new movie coming soon called "The Joneses" in which a faux family moves into an upscale neighborhood and is so cool that everyone wants to be like them -- which means having all the cool brands and new toys that they have. Of course they don't just happen to have these items, but in reality they are selling them and constantly evaluating how their actions are affecting their market share. Their neighbors see them as models and seek to imitate them, as in social learning. The trailer to The Joneses appears above -- and yes, I am delighted to hear David Duchovny say "I'm Steve Jones."
The other example was on the program Marketplace Money where host Tess Vigeland was discussing a YouTube trend called hauls -- young people (who all seem to be female, at least based on the examples) go out on a shopping spree, return home, create a video detailing their hauls and upload it for the world to see. Again, but this time in real life, some people see these young women as who they want to be and therefore want to buy the products to be like them. There are also more examples from a different NPR show earlier this month. (Is there something about NPR that hates conspicuous consumption? I'll leave that for you to decide.)
None of this is new of course (the "Be Like Mike" campaign of the '90s comes to mind as a prime example) but I wonder how long before marketers emulate "The Joneses" and co-opt the haul videos by paying young women to pimp their products. Or maybe they already do? Also, I wonder why the Marketplace Money story didn't ask the question I wanted to know the answer to: where is this money coming from to fund these hauls, and what do these girls' parents think about this?

Diogène et son tonneau (La Lune 106, January 1870)
Gédéon Baril was a 19th century French painter, writer and cartoonist from the Picardy area. He was a pupil of the Parisian painter Léon Cogniet. Baril, who often signed with his first name, was a contributor to magazines like Le Hanneton and Le Soleil, and was one of the co-founders of La Lune in 1865. He was drafted during the Franco-Prusian War, during which he made a series of drawings called 'Nos vainqueurs' ('Our Victors'). He also worked for the Chés Cabotans marionette shows from his hometown Amiens, and illustrated the book 'Dix heures en chasse' by his friend Jules Verne.

Kofi Annan to Visit Khomeini's Mausoleum in Iran in order to Facilitate Peace and Human Rights?0 comments - published on Monday, January 27, 2014
The Elders who aim to promote "peace and human rights" are hypocritically starting their visit at Khomeini's (Also known as the Islamic Butcher) Mausoleum!
As a pro-democracy activist I oppose any diplomatic relations or visits with the Islamic Regime in Iran, which only serves to give the regime further legitimacy. I am disturbed to see Kofi Annan and others visiting Iran at a time where executions are at an all time high, and we hearing daily reports of arrests of political and human rights activists.
What is even more concerning is the fact that a group which claims to be promoting human rights is starting their visit at the Mausoleum of Khomeini, an Islamic dictator responsible for the torture, rape and execution of thousands of Iranians who opposed the brutal Islamic dictatorship!
Instead of visiting prisons where political prisoners are incarcerated, families of political prisoners or those who have been executed by the Regime or political and human rights activists "The Elders" are visiting the grave of a man who was the root of the Islamic dictatorship in Iran.
Clearly Kofi Anan and other former world leaders have no intention of promoting peace or human rights. Their focus is the nuclear issue as is the focus of the international community, and they have no problem giving the Islamic Regime the green light to continue with its systematic human rights violations in Iran!

OPEN LETTER TO JOHN BAIRD: REFERENCE TO THE PERSIAN GULF AS THE "ARABIAN GULF"0 comments - published on Monday, January 20, 2014
John Baird
Minister of Foreign Affairs
2249 Carling Ave.
Suite 418
Ottawa Ontario
Dear Minister Baird,
On January 16th 2014 during your address at the US Chamber of Commerce, you referred to the Persian Gulf as the Arabian Gulf.
As you are aware, for more than two millennia the location which you referred to as the "Arabian Gulf" has been referred to as the Persian Gulf. The Persian Gulf is the term officially recognized by the United Nations and the International Community.
While some Arab States have referred to the Persian Gulf as the "Arabian Gulf", this term is historically incorrect and not recognized by the international community. It is unfortunate that by using the term "Arabian Gulf" you have chosen to give legitimacy to this historically and factually incorrect term.
The Islamic Regime in Iran has tried for many years to destroy the heritage, history and the culture of Iran and the Iranian people. The Regime changed the name of Iran to "Islamic Republic of Iran", while changing the ancient Iranian "Lion and Sun" flag and replacing it with a non-Iranian flag, in an unsuccessful attempt to erase the history and legacy of Iran.
The Islamic Regime in Iran has failed at its attempts, as people of Iran have always been proud of their history, legacy and culture. As part of keeping the Iranian history and heritage alive, Iranians have organized numerous successful international campaigns to protect the term Persian Gulf over the recent years.
As an Iranian-Canadian pro-democracy activist I am extremely disappointed to see that Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs has chosen to use the incorrect term "Arabian Gulf" which not only gives legitimacy to this term, but is also seen as a sign of insult and great disrespect to the people of Iran.
While as an Iranian-Canadian I appreciate the tough stand Canada has taken against the Islamic Regime in Iran, I am extremely disappointed in your disregard for the rich history and culture of Iran which so many of us Iranians are proud of and are fighting to protect.
Yours truly,
Sayeh Hassan
Iranian Canadian Criminal Defence Lawyer, Pro-Democracy Activist and Blogger

Ok Guys here is the Draw
if you want to see whose who ? you gotta go tpo this link but here is an image of the Draw

Replies to This Discussion
I have a torn Tendon in my arm, I was not planning on playing any tournaments for 1 year. so i was not training at all. When i got the invitation two weeks before the tournament start, i was still not planning on playing. Then for no other reason at all except that my arm was feeling a bit better I entered in the tournament in the last minute. i only had about 3 days of training. the lack of training, playing, & fitness effected my ability. Fitness became dehydration, dehydration became cramping, my cramping cost me the match. Also the break down of my body also effected my focus during the match, and made some costly mistakes that i usually don't do when i play. but the travel time hoe did make me tired too. i got home 1230am and as bad as i was feeling i was not driving another 80 miles to play a match at 930am for a consolation.
I was wondering why you played with your tendon damage, but it's hard to resist the temptation, I'm sure.
Yes the Temptation was too great. I figured that if i start in the round of 16, its only 4 matches, I could have gotten a good 3 matches and then suffer for the next 2 months. but in the eve of beating derek D in http://tennisopolis.com/forum/topics/new-tech-vs-legacy-old-man-vs-... its was a good test of my arm. Not i have a chance of winning $50 out of DEREKS Pocket which is worth WAY MORE than the $250 Prize money and ranking points.

Hello there.

Samuel M. Steward, PhD was an English professor, a writer of esteemed literary works and gay porn. He was also "a furtive but exuberant erotic adventurer." [Put this on my own tombstone please].
Sam Steward was also "Phil Sparrow," a tattoo artist for 18 years who chronicled these years in a book that should be on every tattoo lover's shelves: "Bad Boys & Tough Tattoos: A Social History of the Tattoo with Gangs, Sailors, and Street-Corner Punks."
As Sam notes in the intro, the book was autobiographical, a journal of his tattoo life with "no intention to retell old stories, to perpetuate myths or errors, to upgrade the 'art' of tattooing, nor to make more dense the fog of the mystique around it."
It does talk about the characters he tattooed, the politics between tattooers, and sex. Lots of it. He says, "...in one way or another, more than three quarters of the tattoos applied were put on because of some aspect of sexual motivation." No wonder sex researcher Dr. Alfred Kinsey took such an interest in it.
Now, a biography of Steward, "Secret Historian: The Life and Times of Samuel Steward, Professor, Tattoo Artist & Sexual Renegade," will be released August 17th, which looks even deeper at the man's life as a "sex historian," with stories culled from 80 boxes of letters, drawings, sexual paraphernalia, even pubic hair from Rudolph Valentino (with whom he had an affair).
The book is by biographer Justin Spring, whom the NY Times says had "no idea what this sexual outlaw and little-known literary figure had left behind after his death in 1993" when Spring finally tracked down the executor of Steward's estate. The NY Times adds:
You can pre-order the Secret Historian on Amazon for $20.25 (saving $12).

You know that feeling you get when someone insults you and you think of the best comeback in the world just seconds after that person has left the room? That's sort of how I felt after walking away from Scribblenauts Unlimited at E3 this year.
You see, the idea that Scribblenauts Unlimited lets you create pretty much anything you can think of is an overwhelming one. By the time the implications of this truly sank in, I was on my way to see another game in another booth, plagued with thoughts of, "Wait a minute, I bet I could have created a giant purple space lizard that spit candy corn and jelly-filled wizard hats out of its mouth while rolling around on wheels made out of moldy cheese." Well, I probably could have created that very thing. No lie. The creative options here are overwhelming.
Like previous Scribblenauts games, you can bring objects into the world simply by writing their names. For instance, if you wanted a screwdriver, you'd just write the word "screwdriver" and viola! A screwdriver! (Of course, this would be the tool, not the beverage of the same name.) But this is only the beginning. Adjectives, which were added in Super Scribblenauts, have returned, so I could essentially make various types of screwdrivers based on which adjective I decided to come up with. How about a "suspicious screwdriver?" Or an "irritating screwdriver?" (I'm not sure "intoxicating screwdriver" is an option in Scribblenauts, but if so, I want one.)
But the creativity really starts flowing with a brand new feature that lets you actually create complex items from scratch. It's not just nouns and adjectives anymore. Me being a Scribblenauts virgin, the booth rep walked me through the process of making a pink toaster that shoots toast and has basketballs for wheels. I was given a series of sliders, which could adjust this object's speed, gravity, and health. We then added a saddle to it and named it the "Tostermibile." (Apparently, being good at spelling isn't a prerequisite for getting a temp job as a booth rep.) When I was wandering around in the world, I typed the word "Tostermibile" and this goofy contraption showed up. Because of its saddle, I was even allowed to let Maxwell ride around on it. Unfortunately, its habit of spontaneously shooting toast at things made the NPCs instantly hate me.
Now, if you're a Scribblenauts veteran, the phrase "wandering around in the world" in that last paragraph may have caught your attention. Yes, Scribblenauts Unlimited has a fully explorable open world for you to roam around in. This world is composed of various areas that have clever puns for titles—the area I explored was called the "Meta Forest," for example. I quickly distracted the booth rep before he could tell me that this was the "metaphor-est" place in the game by asking him about a haunted mansion I saw in the background. I was told that this wasn't fully implemented in the build I was playing, but eventually it would be explorable like the other areas in the game.

Hear General Bondread her Pastoral Letter
Pastoral Letter
Dear Salvationists:
Very shortly I will commence international travel to Africa, South America East, New York and several countries in Europe. I look forward to seeing the Army around the world. What wonderful opportunities to learn and to minister! I will want to share some insights from these visits with you. These letters will also keep you informed on what is happening with regards to our international vision and associated action steps as well as soliciting your intercession for specific prayer topics. Of course, the pastoral tone of these letters will continue. To incorporate these emphases, I will in future publish this letter under the caption, Sharing the vision.
When in London, I attend the corps near my home. The congregation is very diverse when it comes to culture, age, economic standing, personal needs and knowledge of the Army. Sometimes, looking around, you would wonder how such a different group of people could be called a family but we are. The worship service gives quality time to greeting each other, prayer and testimony and is followed by fellowship around a cup of coffee. It is all so authentic, warm and relevant. The preaching is exceptional and the word is not just exhortation but sound teaching. Time is given to the sermon. Then there is the mercy seat appeal. Again, no rush. Though I have only been able to attend the corps a few times, I have witnessed some very moving responses. The week's programmes offer an array of ministry for body, mind and soul. The corps carries the needs of the world and the community on its heart. Its intercession and practical service are convincing proof of its dedication. In describing the corps where I soldier, I hope I have described yours. What I have always loved about the Army is that soldiers of all ages are involved in our worship and service.
Our time together with the family of God is integral to who we are. We are nourished by the worship, the fellowship, the sermon. Yet the personal spiritual journey needs consistent attention as well. Eugene Peterson (translator of The Message) said, 'The Bible is given to us in the first place simply to invite us to make ourselves at home in the world of God ... and become familiar with the way God speaks and the ways in which we answer him with our lives.'
I encourage you to spend time each day entering into his sacred space, through his word and prayer. Jesus advised us about these private encounters: 'But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen' (Matthew 6:6). For me, the room is the Scriptures. Make yourself at home there. Discover him; hear him speak; see the world from his point of view. Jesus goes on to say, 'Then the Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.' His greatest reward is the reality of his presence! May you experience the joy of it this day.
God bless you richly.

Yes, I do realize that bonfire night was rather a while ago now.. unfortunately however, being a student means I have various other commitments to fulfill. The past few weeks have shot by in a haze of essays, Old English translations, coffee breaks, Ball Committee meetings, and nights out, all which make for one very tired (but very happy) Leah.
Thus I sit, on this rainy Tuesday of 6th week, in my room at Lincoln College (well, opposite Lincoln college in the eponymous Mitre, an impenetrable labyrinth of student rooms and somewhat strange odours..), a cup of miso soup at my side, finally writing this blog post.
And there's really no reason why s'mores cupcakes should only be baked for bonfire night anyway - every occasion is a biscuit-marshmallow-chocolatey-goeey-goodness occasion!
For the sponge:
30g dark chocolate, chilled
5 digestive biscuits
80g unsalted butter or margarine, softened
280g caster sugar
200g plain flour
40g cocoa powder
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
240ml whole milk
For the topping:
200g caster sugar
4 egg whites
100g dark chocolate
An abundance of mini marshmallows.
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius and line a muffin tin with muffin cases. Use a grater to grate the chilled chocolate, then set aside. Crush the biscuits in a food processor (or violently with a rolling pin).
Using a hand-held electric whisk, beat together the butter, sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until they resemble fine breadcrumbs.
Fill each paper case two thirds full of batter. Sprinkle the chocolate shavings and the crushed biscuits on top of the cupcakes. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes until risen and springy to the touch. Leave to cool slightly then remove from the tin and place on a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
When the sugar has reached the soft ball stage, pour onto the beaten eggs while beating on a medium speed. Be careful: do not let the hot sugar mix touch the mixers and flick everywhere as it will be very hot! Once added, turn the speed up to high and whisk until the underside of the bowl is lukewarm. The meringue should have increased in size (a lot) and become white, smooth, and shiny.
Smooth the meringue on top of the cooled cupcakes. Top with mini marshmallows and a square of dark chocolate, then swirl about using a palette knife. With a cook's blowtorch, lightly brown the meringue to give it a baked appearance; the marshmallows will go all gooey and melt into the meringue. Yum. To finish, sprinkle over some remaining biscuit crumbs.
*NB - It is advisable not to blowtorch your own wrist while doing this.. it hurts. A lot.*

I have a website to design. I have information on how the page should look and interact. The problem is I'm not good in front-end design, and have put many many hours to get the hang of the stuff. Currently I use the CSS from sample sites in github to style my site, which seems to be an un-ethical way.
Question: how do you style webpages?
- Are there some really good tools?
- I would be deeply appreciated if a detailed answer will be provided or link to wiki will work as well.

School Wants Students to Sign 'No Twerking' Contract
Twerking has no place on school grounds.
That's the sentiment at River Ridge High School in Lacey, Washington.
The school has handed out contracts to students and parents, in which the kids agree not to perform any risqué dance moves or "look like you're having sex" while at a school event.
The contract forbids students from giving lap dances, bending 45 degrees or getting on the floor.
Students who violate the agreement receive a warning the first time and repeat offenders run the risk of being banned from future school events.
A spokesman for the school district said, "Kids express themselves differently these days. All you have to do is turn on YouTube and see Miley Cyrus. And we just want them to know that at a school dance there's certain expectations about how you dance."

I'm feeling superdense but I don't understand the "Which commenter are you?" post. Is it meant to illustrate the utter pointlessness of most gifs around here? I feel like there was some kind of behind the scenes bet going on or something.
Also—UPDATE—since dropping the knife on my foot last Sunday I have since dropped an entire chopped onion (the same one I was commencing to chop when I cut my foot), an entire pan of peas, and an entire jar of peanut butter (which of course shattered). WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME???
