What Symptoms Will I Experience if I Have Venous Insufficiency?
Venous insufficiency comes with a variety of symptoms. The more advanced your venous disease is, the more symptoms you are likely to experience.
The Symptoms
- Large veins that you can see just under the surface of your skin. If the skin holding these veins is smooth and not raised, the veins are spider veins. However, if the veins are raised in relation to the rest of your skin, you have varicose vein problems.
- Mild swelling of your ankles and feet. Your legs may have difficulty removing extra fluids or may have issues with pooling blood because of your varicose veins.
- Painful, achy or heavy legs. These often accompany swelling.
- Uncomfortable throbbing or cramping in your legs. You may feel as though you can actually feel the blood pumping through your legs.
- Itchiness, especially on your lower leg and ankle. This is a sign of dermatitis, but some general practitioners will mistake this for dry skin. If the itching does not go away after applying lotion, go back to the doctor or talk to one of our vein specialists to ensure you have a correct diagnosis.
- Discolored or strangely textured skin around the varicose vein. This may be a sign of dermatitis, so be sure to have your doctor look at any discoloration or texture changes you experience.
Complications of Varicose Veins
Varicose vein problems are not without their complications. Typically, these complications occur many years after you first begin to have issues with varicose veins, but they may be what causes you to notice the vein issues in the first place.
One of the most common complications with varicose veins is dermatitis, which is an itchy rash that occurs on the skin near a varicose vein. You may notice dermatitis on your lower leg or ankle. Even though dermatitis can be very uncomfortable, you should try to avoid scratching or otherwise irritating your dermatitis as dermatitis can cause bleeding or skin ulcers to occur if it is disturbed.
Varicose veins can occasionally lead to a condition called superficial thrombophlebitis. Thrombophlebitis is a blood clot that develops within a vein, and superficial thrombophlebitis is a blood clot that develops in a vein that is located near the surface of your skin. This type of blood clot is not typically dangerous to your life, but it may cause pain and other issues in the vein and nearby skin.

The Party's Over – Mourning the Musical Comedy We Once Knew
Joy - one of the ingredients that used to make for a successful Broadway musical and the one that is chiefly missing in today's musical theatre writing. Nowadays, shows have to be biting, sarcastic, topical, cynical and revolutionary, but to just be a conduit of happiness, melody and merriment doesn't seem to cut it anymore.
Escapism is one of the great gifts that theatre (particularly musical theatre) can provide. Remember the days when we'd gather in the theatre, enjoy an overture full of infectious melodies, laugh together as one at the antics of Dolly Levi or Pseudolus, and just forget the doldrums of everyday life, trading the price of a theatre ticket for that rush of innocent joy? Where is that today? Why is the "old-fashioned" musical comedy progressively becoming more and more old-fashioned? Looking at Broadway's current offerings, the only musical that really fits this style is Something Rotten! and even that has an edgy, ribald humor that was ushered in with the success of The Producers.
Please don't misunderstand me; I believe there is room for all kinds of musicals. The more the better, in fact. What I am interested in exploring is, why the honest-to-god, melodically infused, laugh-inducing escapist musical comedy, which used to be the norm on the Broadway landscape, has now become the artistic equivalent of the black rhino? Did we just stop wanting the Hello, Dolly!, Guys & Dolls and The Pajama Game type shows, the once classics that made us tap our toes and grin from ear to ear, that we have evolved to what now passes as musical comedy in the likes of The Book of Mormon, Avenue Q, and Something Rotten!? These are all fun, escapist musicals, but they are not the musical comedy we once knew.
An argument can be made that the type of musical comedy I am talking about has become dated. Contemporary audiences are used to edgier fair all around, including television, film and music. In a world where the likes of Family Guy, South Park, American Horror Story, and The Walking Dead reign supreme, can the simple charms of the old-fashioned musical comedy be too trite, hopeful and completely of another time and another place? It seems to be a product of our lost innocence as a society that we look at Mame, Dolly and The Music Man and would turn our nose up at their simple charms.
I'm not so naïve as to imply that all musical comedies are perfect (or even the titles that I have used for examples). In fact, I attribute our changing tastes and evolved ways of thinking to be the major contributor to what has become known as the "revisal." What was considered politically correct in 1940 or 1950 doesn't always sit right now (nor should it), but the major content of most of these musicals is inoffensive and still makes them classics that deserve to be revisited in some form. I think the problem goes deeper, into the idea that we are just not accustomed to, or open to, a happily-ever-after scenario that is achieved without some dark twists and turns that take us into a murky middle ground of darker or edgier humor. Even Disney and Pixar, once bastions of optimism and hope in the film world, have traded a simplistic format for something more contemporary and complex. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it does point to an evolution in entertainment norms and what is deemed necessary that may be why the old-fashioned musical comedy formula doesn't resonate anymore.
I, for one, wish we would buck this trend and find a reason for melody, hope and happy-ever-after again. I enjoy theatre that teaches and changes me, but I also like theatre that transports and uplifts me. Hasn't this always been the case? For every Show Boat, wasn't there an Anything Goes? For every Carousel, wasn't there an Annie Get Your Gun? Mame and Man of La Mancha stood side-by-side on Broadway in one season and each managed lengthy runs, memorable music and to win the hearts of their audiences. Sometimes, we just need to laugh, disappear into the magic, and walk away humming a melody that casts the darkness out of our hearts. I champion the composer, lyricist and librettist who can reignite that "old-fashioned" magic. For me, there is a void that needs to be filled, both on Broadway and in my heart.

Contractor expected to hike price from the £280m given in London's original bid
Sir Robert McAlpine is expected to submit a price of up to £400m for the London Olympic stadium. This compares with a figure given in the original Olympic bid documents of £280m.
Building understands that McAlpine's overall bid may reach £600m. This encompasses the infrastructure works surrounding the building, including roads and a bridge.
The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) will undertake months of value engineering on the stadium design before work begins on site.
A source close to the negotiation said the ODA had seen the drawings and designs for the stadium and was nearly ready to go public with them.
He said: "McAlpine's bid for the stadium is less than £400m but it has to be taken as a whole, as the tender includes the full package of works for the area. The next round of price negotiations will be critical."
The ODA is expected to release its final stadium budget next month.
It is understood that David McAlpine is to stay on as Sir Robert McAlpine chairman to see through the stadium negotiations and get the project to site.
A source close to McAlpine insisted that Benny Kelly, the company's construction director and the man behind Arsenal's Emirates stadium, would remain should negotiations be successful, despite speculation that he may step down or retire.
Negotiations between McAlpine and the ODA have been of particular interest as the ODA does not have rival tenders to fall back on. Under the authority's design-and-build procurement process some teams were disqualified as they did not contain a contractor.
Contractors, such as Bovis Lend Lease, Skanska, Taylor Woodrow and Kier, did not submit bids because they viewed the project as too risky or were vying for the Olympic delivery partner role.
An ODA spokesperson said: "We have already stated that we will not comment on speculation over figures ahead of our discussions and negotiations. We continue to talk to Team McAlpine about both the costs and the design of the Olympic stadium and will be announcing more detail in the coming months."
Sir Robert McAlpine was unavailable for comment.
Team McAlpine also includes consulting engineer Buro Happold and architect HOK Sport.

Horror Heaven at Sundance 2016
Throughout this week and the beginning of next, Smucky will be attending the cinephile's dream: Sundance Film Festival.
As many horror aficionados know, Sundance is home to Park City at Midnight – a selection of 9 films that explore dark, weird, and often gory places. Representing Smucky, I will be first in line for as many screenings of these films as I can manage.
My two most anticipated are:
Produced by Drafthouse Films and SpectreVision, this horror comedy promises to upend the slasher stereotypes with a father-son tale – marred by the appearance of a particularly oily murderer. If these companies' previous films are any indication, this one will be utterly bizarre, unique, and fun.
Richard Bates splashed boldly onto the horror scene with 2012's EXCISION. Now he returns to Sundance with a relationship comedy that goes very, very far south. With a super cool cast and Bates's notable suburban aesthetic, TRASH FIRE will offer Americana nightmares, and probably a few laughs as well.
Hopefully I will also get to see UNDER THE SHADOW, a Middle Eastern demon thriller; ANTIBIRTH, a surreal drug-trip nightmare; and possibly YOGA HOSERS, Kevin Smith's latest comedic-horrific effort.
Stay tuned for reviews and general festival anecdotes – it's an exciting lineup, and I am so grateful to be here!

To be honest writer's block isn't something I ever thought would be a problem for I have always been quite prolific and being an egotist, I believe I have an endless amount of opinions that I must enlighten unto the world. However, as of late I sit at my computer, write about two paragraphs and then have a panic attack followed by a series of disturbing voices that tell me my writing is pedantic, derivative and dull.
I usually argue with these voices over espresso in a small French café and, if I don't get tossed out for yelling at empty chairs, the voices usually win the arguments. They claim I am not just a poor man's version of S.J. Perelman, but an impoverished crack addict who sucks dicks for neurotic anecdotes that are long-winded and go nowhere. The voices claim I'd be better off emulating the works of V.C. Andrews and that my writing is better-suited for the elderly who have frozen bowels and need dribble to distract them from the pains of their grunting and groaning as they relieve themselves on cold porcelain toilets.
I have talked to my friends about these voices and they claim they are not separate entities but rather manifestations of my low self-esteem. However, I am certain they are real. I believe this because one voice has a thick Long Island accent, and when he isn't speaking to me I can hear him eating corn chips and mumbling about kids today and how the Yankees spend too much for too little.
The other voice in my head is a five-year-old girl who has a penchant for calling me cocksucker. In fact that is all she ever says to me. Any time the Long Island voice tells me I am a lousy writer she just tags it with, "yeah cocksucker." Only once has she ever said anything nice to me but I am almost certain she wasn't speaking to me because my hair isn't blonde and I am not busty.
The third voice rarely speaks, but when they do it is harsh and brings me to my knees with tears of humiliation. There is an androgynous quality to the third entity. At times the voice is lovely and lilting and other times it is harsh like an old sea captain. Once when I was writing in the midst of a bourbon haze this voice made a pass at me. I, in my blurred state, fell for it and what happened next I cannot share publicly for I may be sued for emotionally damaging those who read the tale. I can say any time hear the words "four fingers" I break out in tears.
Growing tired of these voices keeping me from writing, I decided to bring in a mediator to work out the situation. I thought it best to use the voice I call The Good Voice. This voice visits me once a year and tells me that that I am a genius and soon my writing will be praised by all.
The four voices met in my living room and immediately agreed I should not speak during the meeting. The three voices illustrated their point of how I am a lousy writer with graphs, slides, a short musical film and a poem. To my dismay, the Good Voice strongly agreed but motioned they allow me to write one more piece without their distraction and then after that, they could taunt me until I was emotionally crippled and forced to admit I will spend the rest of my days wallowing in mediocrity.
So I guess in short this is the last piece I will write without the evil voices distracting me. Oddly, as I type this last sentence the little girl voice is calling me a cocksucker while the third voice plays with my breasts.

Tired of starting the day with a cold slice of pizza and a six-pack? Then make a beeline for Sneaky Dee's (431 College, at Bathurst, 416-603-3090, sneaky-dees.com, @thesneakydees), where the nice folks behind one of downtown's favourite watering holes have just introduced two artery-clogging breakfasts named for psychedelic hardcore combo - and regular customers - Fucked Up.
For the princely sum of $24.95, tuck into the Queen Of Heart Attack's three slices each of bacon and ham, three sausages, two pulled-pork eggs Bennys, two slices of french toast, grilled tomatoes, sautéed mushrooms and home fries à la poutine. Who forgot the whipped cream?
Dizzy's has also created the similarly priced FU Breakfast of two poached eggs over tortillas swimming in salsa mole, sided with two cheese-'n'-pepper-stuffed enchiladas, a tortilla bowl filled with beans and diced tomatoes, rice and beans, chili and tortilla chips. And salad! If you worry about these things, those 3,000-plus calories are entirely vegetarian.
Hoof kicks the can
For the second time in less than three years, Jennifer Agg has pulled the plug on her Hoof Café. Seems the people who begged her to reopen the ridiculously popular Dundas West brunch spot didn't turn out in the numbers she expected when she relaunched across the street from the original location last February. Agg plans to turn the also now-defunct Raw Bar into a resto-lounge dedicated to rum.

A pedicurist sees this all day long—and I guarantee it ain't always this pretty.
Part of why I don't engage more beauty services—mani/pedis, facials, etc.—is because I feel acutely aware of the weird power dynamic inherent in many salons. I, a middle-class white woman born in America, am paying a probably not-white person, likely an immigrant, less than I make to do the sort of beauty labor on my body that I'm unwilling to do myself—I'm outsourcing my own grooming, essentially. Most often I just choose to opt out. But in talking with Virginia Sole-Smith of Beauty Schooled and hearing about what it's like on the other side of the waxing table, I started to see that simply opting out isn't the only way to handle that dynamic: As a client, I can engage with it responsibly, in ways that go beyond just tipping well and smiling (though do that too). Here, her tips for being a responsible salon client.
1) Tip. Always. "I don't care if you didn't like the service—you always have to tip out. The most fundamental injustice in the beauty industry right now is that the salons are all based on a tipping model, which means that workers' wages are too low. Salons underpay their workers and pass the responsibility for making up the difference over to consumers, so they can advertise lower prices. So think of the listed price of your haircut or bikini wax as a fake price tag and add 20 percent more. That's pretty much across the board—definitely in discount nail salons. It's a little less true if you go to a really high-end salon; if a hairstylist works on commission and you're paying $150 for a cut, the stylist is probably getting 40% of that. So she's doing fine. But remember that the shampoo girl and her assistant who does your blowout aren't making that. They're making, like, $8 an hour. People often tip hairstylists 20% and give the shampoo girl $3; I'd rather give the shampoo girl $10 and scale back a bit on the stylist. Better yet, tip everyone well. I usually tip more than 20%; for a $35 pedicure I'll tip $10, because I know those workers are often only paid about $50 a day. If you can't afford to give a tip, you can't afford to get a pedicure."
2) Make it mutual. "Make it a point to ask their name. If you make conversation, don't just go on about what you want—have a conversation with them as you would any other person. I hate when I go to a nail salon and I see women talking on their cell phone while there's a woman scrubbing her feet. I know you're there to relax, and that's fine—you don't have to talk through the whole thing. If you're getting a facial, you're paying to basically take a nap. But recognize that this is a human being who is working on you; don't pretend she's a robot, because she's not. She's touching you and being physically intimate, so it would be nice to ask how her day is going. Pay it back a little bit. That can be tricky to do, because you're paying for the service and she has to give that service. But keep the fundamental respect."
3) Be an advocate. "If you're going into a place that's awful with fumes and not enough ventilation, ask for the windows to be opened. You can even encourage salons to give their workers masks and gloves — or if you notice workers wearing protective gear, make a point to tell the owner that you appreciate them making worker safety a priority. The owners aren't going to do that unless they think that the customer wants it, because they don't want to lose business. So anytime you say, 'Wow, these fumes make me sick,' and talk to a salon manager and say, 'Hey, can you open more windows or put a fan in here?'—particularly with the really toxic stuff, like the Brazilian blowout and acrylic nails—the manager is at least listening to you. They need to hear that from customers."

The golden mean rule
Submitted by Anastasya Vaits... on
People say that being a teacher means a lot more than just getting ready for the lessons, making the process challenging and affordable and conducting careful feedback. Everything in the teaching process is logical, well-laid and organized. We as teachers can skilfully hold needs analysis, create a program and put it into life. But besides being a well with knowledge, optimism and never ending enthusiasm, we quite often have to perform other functions and exercise other feelings.

Christ's Origin
Jehovah's Witnesses and the Study of Micah 5:2
Written by John Carson
Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs) use the last portion of Micah 5:2 to teach Jesus Christ is not God. This is because they believe He had a beginning. From their JW website they teach:
- "Jesus' life began long before he was born in a stable in Bethlehem. In fact, the Bible says that his "origin is from early times, from the days of time indefinite. (Micah 5:2)"" (emphasis mine)
Was Jesus created by the Father as JWs teach, or did He always exist?
The scripture quote above is from the New World Translation (NWT), which is uniquely translated and published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (WT). Are we to draw from Micah 5:2, that Micah was conveying the message that the Messiah to come, who would rule over Israel (identified in Matthew 2 as Jesus), had a beginning? Or, was the Prophet Micah identifying something else about the coming Messiah?
The NWT 1984 edition translates Micah 5:2 differently from other translations. Here's an example of how it differs from the New American Standard Bible (NASB):
- "whose origin is from early times, from the days of time indefinite." (NWT)
- "His goings forth are from long ago, From the days of eternity." (NASB)
Did the WT translate Micah 5:2 accurately, and then came to the conclusion it is teaching Jesus' life had a beginning? Or did they fashion and manipulate this passage in such a way so that it will agree with their teachings about Christ?
"Origin" and "Goings Forth"
Let's first look at and compare the words "origin"
(NWT) and "goings forth" (NASB). These are translated from the Hebrew word, mowtsaah, and is only
found in two places in the Old Testament, Micah 5:2 and 2 Kings 10:27. The WT translates this word in 2 Kings 10:27 as "latrines"
(NWT 2013 edition). An obvious observation, is that these two English words, "origin" and "latrines", cannot both have the meaning of beginning. It begs the question whether mowtsaah should be interpreted as having such a meaning.
Mowtsaah מוֹצָאֹת is the feminine of mosta מוֹצָא which comes from its primitive root word, yatsa יָצָא
Here are examples of how these Hebrew words are used:
- "I profane not My covenant, And that which is going forth (motsa) from My lips I change not." (Psalm 89:34 Young's Literal Translation)
The NWT renders this Hebrew word here as the expression; the NASB used the utterance. This shows both translations are in agreement that motsa is used to connote the going forth (utterance, expression) from the ever-present LORD God Almighty.
Numbers 20:11 describes how water came forth (yatsa) from the rock in the book of Numbers:
- "Then Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came forth (yatsa) abundantly, and the congregation and their beasts drank." (Numbers 20:11 NASB)
Notice the passage is not describing that the rock itself came forth, but that water came forth from the rock that was already present. The WT translated this word here as pour out (NWT 2013 edition). That rock is identified in the New Testament as Christ:
- "and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ." (1 Corinthians 10:4 NASB)
The core meaning from mowtsaah's root word then, is much like a pouring out from a source, and NOT the beginning of something (or Someone). This meaning fits both Micah 5:2 and 2 Kings 10:27 (a pouring out place). Notice the NASB's translation for mowtsaah:
- "His goings forth are from long ago, From the days of eternity." (Micah 5:2 NASB)
If Micah shared the same views as the JWs do about the Messiah, and wanted to convey the message about Him being a creation of God, he could have used a much better Hebrew word other than mowtsaah. Why didn't Micah use a word that was more clearer, like reshith (beginning), or bara (create)? Psalm 148:5 reads in the NWT about angels:
- "Let them praise the name of Jehovah; For he himself commanded, and they were created (bara)."
JWs believe Jesus was Michael the Archagel, who they say is God's first creation. If Jesus was created (bara), then that would have been a better choice word to convey that message.
One of the greatest dilemmas facing the NWT's use of "origin" in Micah 5:2, is that mowtsaah is plural, not singular. If JWs want to view this Hebrew word as meaning Jesus' existence began, then mowtsaah's plural meaning would force Jesus to have more than one beginning.
"Time Indefinite" and "Eternity"
If Jesus sprang into existence or was created by the Father, there must have been a point in time in which the Father created Him. Your JW friend will agree and will reason in his/her mind that Jesus was created at an indefinite period of time, and not from everlasting. The WT teaches:
- "The Hebrew word here rendered "everlasting," (from KJV Micah 5:2) is olám, and simply means an indefinite period of time." (emphasis mine) (Watchtower Magazine, September 15, 1961 - "What Does the Bible Teach About the Divinity of Christ?")
This brings us to dealing with the comparisons between "time indefinite" (NWT) and "eternity" (NASB). Notice the difference between how the NASB and the NWT (1984 edition) renders the last portion of Micah 5:2...
"from the days of eternity" (NASB)
"from the days of time indefinite" (NWT)
JWs will reject any thought that the Hebrew word used here, עוֹלָ֖ם (olam), could be translated as "eternity" or "everlasting" in Micah 5:2. They believe Jesus was created a long time ago, in the ancient past.
For many years the WT used "time indefinite" in various places in their NWT. It is interesting that this was the identical term they used in multiple passages that speak of God's existence as being eternal. When they made their recent changes to their NWT (2013 edition), they stopped using time indefinite and replaced it with other wordings.
A Jehovah's Witness explained to me how Daniel 2:44's rendering of "time indefinite" was changed to "forever", and that this shows God's Kingdom will be forever upon the earth. So the WT sees this word, olam, to be used in certain contexts to mean forever in the future. Whenever olam refers to the Person of the Father, the WT interprets their translated words, "time indefinite", to mean God had always been, and always will be God. Take a look at how they retranslated Psalm 90:2:
"from time indefinite to time indefinite you are God." (1984 edition)
"From everlasting to everlasting, you are God." (2013 edition)
No JW will say there was a point in time when God became God, and they point to this passage as proof of this. The WT proclaims:
- "Why should we worship God? The true God is the Creator of all things. He had no beginning and will never have an end. (Psalm 90:2)" (emphasis mine)
Utilizing both Psalm 90:2 and Micah 5:2, from their own admissions they use the word olam to demonstrate two opposing viewpoints:
Olam means God had no beginning (Psalm 90:2)
Olam means Jesus had a beginning (Micah 5:2)
Their retranslation of olam appropriately refers to the Person of the Father as everlasting. How is it then, that the WT uses the same Hebrew word in Micah 5:2 to "prove" Jesus was NOT from everlasting?
The WT's retranslations of "time indefinite" in the Old Testament to "everlasting" (Psalm 90:2) clearly identifies the eternality of God the Father. The Greek word for this word "everlasting" in the Septuagint (LXX) is αἰῶνος aionos, and it is a word that describes Jesus in the New Testament:
- "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever αἰῶνος (aionos)." (Hebrews 13:8)
From what we've seen, we can determine that the Hebrew word olam cannot "prove" Jesus had a beginning. But JWs will reject "everlasting" as being the right choice for olam in Micah 5:2. Your JW friend may show you Bible verses where this word can have the meaning of "long ago", "ancient times", "days of old", etc. The WT chose the meaning of "long ago" (NWT 2013 edition) rather than "everlasting", and claimed this was the thought conveyed by Micah. In their JW website we read:
- "The Hebrew word ʽoh·lamʹ carries the thought of indefinite or uncertain time.... Accordingly, expressions such as "time indefinite", "indefinitely lasting", "of old", "a long time ago," "of long ago", and "long-lasting" appropriately convey the thought of the original-language term." (emphasis mine)
Recently, the WT's New World Bible Translation Committee replaced "time indefinite" with "long ago" in their NWT 2013 edition. Again, they claim this was Micah's intended thought he was conveying:
- ".... a number of style and vocabulary changes have been made in this revision, with the following objectives in mind.... The expression "time indefinite" was replaced with such terms as "forever," "lasting," "everlasting," or "long ago," to convey the intended meaning in each context.—Genesis 3:22; Exodus 31:16; Psalm 90:2; Ecclesiastes 1:4; Micah 5:2." (emphasis mine)
How would they know if "long ago" was the intended thought Micah was trying to communicate? If olam can also mean "everlasting", on what basis did the New World Bible Translation Committee reject this word and chose "long ago" instead? Why didn't they just leave it as "time indefinite"?
The reasons were not contextual, but theological. The WT dogmatically rejects the teaching that Jesus Christ is God, and have gone to great lengths to "prove" He is not God. By changing "time indefinite" to "long ago", it's not as easy now for someone to recognize such cross references like Micah 5:2 with Psalm 90:2.
All you need to do is search the internet, and you'll see ample sites challenging the WT on their 1984 translation of Micah 5:2. In my opinion, by revising this passage, it seems they are able to more easily dodge the issue. However, they had created yet another dilemma. Their retranslation of Micah 5:2 causes the passage to become nonsensical when we consider the Hebrew word in the middle of the sentence.
"Early Times" and "Long Ago"
"Early times" (NWT 1984 edition) and "long ago" (NASB) in Micah 5:2, were translated from the Hebrew word, קֶ֫דֶם qedem, which means: ancient time, aforetime, ancient, from of old, early times, etc. So there is an agreement for the meaning the NWT and NASB gives to this Hebrew word. This actually creates a serious problem when considering context.
We just learned that the New World Bible Translation Committee retranslated olam as "long ago" in Micah 5:2. It doesn't make sense that the Prophet Micah would use a different Hebrew word, qedem, to say the same thing.
Your JW friend may quickly point out that their Translation Committee did not translate qedem in Micah 5:2 as "long ago":
- "Whose origin is from ancient times (qedem), from the days of long ago."
According to the WT though, "ancient" and "long ago" are also interchangable translated words from olam. Notice for instance, their Translation Committee retranslated "time indefinite" to "ancient" in Habakkuk 3:6:
- "the indefinitely lasting (olam) hills bowed down." (1984 edition)
- "the ancient (olam) hills bowed down." (2013 edition)
Their definitions are still the same. "Ancient" and "long ago" have the same meaning. It just sounds better using "ancient times" rather than repeat "long ago". But that's where the dilemma lies; it does not make sense that Micah would use two different Hebrew words to say the same thing.
It makes more sense that Micah would have had two different time structures in mind since he used two different Hebrew words. So it is more fitting that qedem and olam were used to convey two different meanings, the distant past, and eternity.
Putting It All Together
When considering the context of Micah 5:2, as well as what we've learned about these three Hebrew words, mowtsaah, qedem, and olam (as well as the Greek word aionos), an acceptable interpretation of Micah 5:2 would be:
- "Not only has the Ruler that is to come, been active (mowtsaah) in the past (qedem), He has been active throughout all eternity (olam)!"
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever! (Hebrews 13:8)
Sample questions to ask your JW friend:
1) "How can a Hebrew word not have the meaning of beginning in 2 Kings 10:27, but is considered by the WT to mean beginning in Micah 5:2?"
2) "If Numbers 20:11 and 1 Corinthians 10:4 teaches Christ was present while water "came forth" from the rock, shouldn't we view Micah 5:2 as also teaching Christ was already present during His "goings forth", since it comes from the same root word?"
3) "If Micah really wanted to get the point across that the Messiah had a beginning, wouldn't it seem reasonable that he would have used a better Hebrew word to communicate this, such as "created" found in Psalm 148:5?"
4) "Since the Hebrew word the WT translated as "origin" in Micah 5:2 is actually plural, how many origins did Jesus experience before He was born in Bethlehem? Did God create Jesus multiple times?"
5) "Could Psalm 90:2 be interpreted as... God became God at an unknown point in time, since it reads "time indefinite" in your NWT? If not, then why does the WT use that same word to "prove" Jesus had a beginning in Micah 5:2?"
6) "The Greek word that describes God's nature in Psalm 90:2 in the LXX, is the exact same Greek word that describes Jesus' nature as well in Hebrews 13:8. Since He always remained the same, what does that say about Who Jesus really is?"
7) "If "long ago" and "ancient times" are from different Hebrew words in Micah 5:2, wouldn't this demonstrate Mich wanted to convey two different meanings; the distant past and eternity?"

Post Title.
It was so great to see all of the slideshows tonight, but more important it was great to meet so many great people. More than anything else tonight's SlideLuck PotShow was about building community.
Here's a peak at the slide show I put together.
No one gives better hugs than Milli. Thanks for all of your support! And of course my wife, Julie, and son Caleb... thanks for putting up with all of my excitement over this!
_For some reason I think I should be too cool for this, but I've never really been recognized for my photography before. Sure, I've had the occasional solo exhibit here and there; been part of group shows. All of that has been great. Seriously, more than I ever expected since picking up the camera again seven years ago.
So what's this all about? Well my slideshow was selected to be part of the SlideLuck PotShow (SLPS) Austin IV. I can hear you now saying, "SlideLuck PotShow?" I said the same thing the first time I heard Lance Rosenfield mention it at an Austin Center of Photography "Icons of Photography" event. Thought I'd never have anything to submit, but I'll go and see what others have to show.
SLPS is a community event where photographers and artists come together, submit their work for selection, and have a potluck. I am so thrilled to have been selected for the slideshow this year.
Got to admit, I've "googled" all the other photographers/artists that were selected, and can say that I hope I don't suck. Some really great artists in the bunch. I also know some that didn't get selected and can tell you, there was some steep competition. Sixteen other photographers were selected this year and I can't wait to see what their slideshows are going to be. From what I can tell from their websites, I'm feeling even more lucky.
(I know something is going on... think they've been GOOGLING me too since the hits on my website tonight have skyrocketed)
Here are the other photographers selected (in no particular order)
I know a lot of my friends on flickr and facebook will say, "I'm not surprised," or "About time," or "Braggart!" I am seriously over the moon about this and I hope that you can share in my happiness. If you are in Austin Saturday night, I hope you can stop by? Here's the link for
Write something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview.

The Benefits of Turmeric on Your Body
Most people know turmeric as a vibrant orange spice that can be added to curries, it helps to add extra flavor boost or use to colour rice yellow. However, this plant provides a lot of health benefits.
According to recent studies, many countries in South Asia proved that turmeric provides many health benefits. Also, it can be used to prevent both cancer and dementia. Thus, why is turmeric, a plant in the ginger family, so crucial for our health?
Curcumin is the main ingredient in turmeric; this compound also helps give turmeric it's deep orange color. It has been used for a long time in Siddha, Ayurveda and Unani medicines. This medicine is well known for treating dementia and cancer. In 2009, the World Alzheimer's Report concluded that just 3.6 percent of South Asia's population over the age of 60 suffer from dementia, compared to about 7.2 percent of Western European's population. Similarly, India's population has the lowest percentage of people who have cancer compared to the west.
Cancer & Alzheimer's
How can turmeric prevent diseases like dementia and cancer? Turmeric helps to improve the healthy cells in the body by fighting against free radicals. Curcumin helps to cure enzymes that can lead to severe disease like cancer. Many studies claim that curcumin could decrease the number or size of cancerous tumours and prevent them from growing altogether. The studies use animals as their subjects and in 2006 an investigation revealed that curcumin helps to inhibit the growth of colon cancer in human beings.
In regards to Alzheimer's disease, many researchers claim that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of curcumin are capable of breaking down the amyloid plaques in the brain that can lead to Alzheimer's. If the blood vessels in the brain are cleared, more oxygen will be fed to the brain, and this could boost the overall function of the brain.
Other health benefits
As discussed earlier, there are many health benefits of turmeric. Studies on animals revealed that curcumin helps to reduce the cholesterol level in the body and prevent the growth of plaque that blocks the arteries. The natural anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin are used to treat some health problems such as eye inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, and multiple sclerosis. Also, it helps to fight against flu and colds, enhances healthy indigestion, helps to improve glucose control in diabetes patients, and decreases symptoms of bloating and gas.
Many people believe that turmeric is a "miracle spice". Apart from its golden quality colour, adding extra turmeric to your diet is an easy method to boost your health with minimal effort. For people that don't eat the different kinds of meals that go well with turmeric, you can take this orange spice as a supplement or grate it just like ginger to prepare a warming tea.

You may remember Great Aunt Hashtag, the funny old bird who attended Tweet and Retweet's wedding. Well, she used her frequent flyer points to pay a visit to Tweet and Retweet to meet the new Tweetlets.
Having emphasised the magnanimous nature of her visit by describing in detail how difficult it was for her to make such a journey these days and complained about the toughness of the worms these days (with thinly veiled suggestion that Retweet's preparation of the worms left a lot to be desired), she proceeded to offer Retweet advice about nest cleaning.
Great Aunt Hashtag was not impressed when Tweetelle had a meltdown because the feathers and pebbles she had swept out of the nest were not really rubbish but were part of Tweetelle's diorama.
"In MY day…" said Great Aunt Hashtag "Tweetlets were seen and not heard"
"In MY day Tweetlets tweeted when they were twoken to!"
"In MY day we stayed at home and kept a clean nest – none of this gadding about going to the library!"
In MY day we didn't have all these new fandangle things and we survived, didn't we?
And then Tweetil quite innocently put his foot in his beak by asking (genuinely wanting to know) whether 'in her day' Great Aunt Hashtag had been friends with Archaeopteryx!

South Carolina Officer Quincy Smith, of the Estill Police Department, managed to survive being shot last January and suffering two broken arm bones and a "life threatening" neck injury after being shot, according to Hampton County officials.
His shooter, Malcolm Orr, 29, was found guilty of attempted murder and possession of a weapon and sentenced to 35 years on Wednesday following a two-day trial.
"If but not for the grace of God and some very good doctors, this would not only have been a murder case but a death penalty case," explained 14th Circuit Solicitor Duffie Stone, who prosecuted the case.
Smith had been responding to suspicious person call on New Years Day 2016.
A clerk at a local store told the officer that a man wearing camouflage and a red bandana had been trying to steal groceries away from customers. The officer that was shot captured entire shooting with video glasses he purchased on Amazon for 30.00.
The officer says it was the best $30.00 he ever spent.
What is completely unacceptable and shocking is it took over ten minutes for police to arrive for one of their own officers. It's a miracle that after being shot, broken arm, shot in the neck, can barely breathe it still took cops ten minutes to arrive for one of their own.
The dispatcher didn't even send cops immediately according to voice transmissions.
Here's the incredible footage, captured by Smith, that helped convict Malcolm Antwan Orr, 29, of attempted murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.

Donald Sawyer, Jr. - Day Five
Observation of panhandlers. Some individuals turn to panhandling as a means to subsidize their income. In some cities and towns panhandling has become an epidemic and problem. So, in this regard, municipalities are requiring these individuals to obtain a license to panhandle, in an effort to alleviate community concerns, and regulate and track the growing number of homeless, transients, and panhandlers. To obtain a license or permit you must have some form of identification, such as a driver's license, passport, or state identification. In cities that require a panhandling license, the rules can be rather strict. However, the individual in the photograph license expired in 2017. This photograph was taken on 6/28/2018. When I enquired about it, she just shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Oh well". The licenses are free by the way.

2nd Coffeeshop Amsterdam Zuidoost
If everything goes according to plan, the second shop can open it's doors next September.
Entrepreneurs from in and around the industrial area Amstel III have recently been informed. There will be a trial period of 2 years after which will be decided whether or not the coffeeshop can stay open permanently.
This is the 2nd coffeeshop after Coffeeshop Roots opened it's doors next to the Trainstation of Bijlmer, a little over a year ago. The procedure of opening Roots took a long lasting period of seventeen years.
Pilot 'Replacing Coffeeshops'
This second coffeeshop in The Bijlmer is a part of the Pilot 'Replacing Coffeeshops' in which the City of Amsterdam is moving Coffeeshops from the centre towards outskirts of the city.
Already Amsterdam has replaced 5 coffeeshops since 2012. Besides Zuidoost, they also have placed coffeeshops in Sloterdijk and the Western Harbour Area.
At this moment Amsterdam holds 173 Coffeeshops. In the 90's that number was 450.

Email marketing do and don'ts when the goal is to boost volume of social reviews. Reviews are meant to be unbiased, and, on aggregate, reflect the average experience. Hence, while a campaign can target increasing the quantity of reviews, it should not in any way influence the quality of them.
These three tips will tick both checkboxes and maximise the ROI of the email campaign both in direct goals as well as lead to positive brand equity.

Neil Simon remains one of the pre-eminent masters of modern American comedy. Few peers can match his penchant for hysterical character-driven dialogue and the way he can mine humor from even the most mundane of events. Ground Up Productions has revived one of Simon's earliest, most signature works at the Manhattan Theatre Source, and it is a production of which Simon can be proud. That show would be Barefoot in the Park, about the yin-yang love match between cherubic Corrie Bratter (Kate Middleton) and her straight-laced lawyer husband, Paul (Guy Olivieri). After a whirlwind courtship, the two elope and move into a fifth-floor Manhattan walk-up. Apparently, the climb up to their apartment is quite a schlep, even by New York standards, as several servicemen and Corrie's mother, Mrs. Banks (Amelia White) attest.
Director Lon Blumgarner lucks out in that the Source's performance space lends itself perfectly to the Bratter apartment's claustrophobic feel – the size of the stage is actually about as small as many starter apartments in the city. Blumgarner even goes one better than that by having several of the seats in the audience turn out to be furniture later delivered to the Bratters (not to worry, the seats are replaced by new chairs between the first and second act).
Barefoot looks at the different strokes between Corrie and Paul, which increasingly come to the surface as Corrie deigns to fix up her widowed mother with Victor Velasco (Eric Purcell), the intriguing upstairs neighbor. One of the great strengths of Simon's original play is that Corrie's and Paul's sides both have merit and are both flawed. Since they rushed into marriage heart over head, they have yet to navigate the tricky road of compromise.
Additionally, one of the great strengths of this Ground Up production is that its cast does an impeccable job all around. First and foremost is Middleton, in what I can only hope is a star-making performance. The actress is outstanding, blending just the right amount of perky, petulant, vulnerable, and optimistic. It's hard not to take your eyes off of her, but to her credit, Middleton sharply cedes the stage as frequently as she commands it, particularly when playing off of Olivieri. He has a trickier part, since Paul is so much more reserved, but the actor masters subtle hints to clue the audience into exactly what his character thinks at all times.
The supporting cast of Barefoot also delivers the material perfectly. White has the show-stopping role, as anyone familiar with the show knows. It is indeed a textbook comedic performance, with one terrific line followed by another ("I feel like I died and went to Heaven…and had to climb my way up"), yet White makes even more of the part, etching in the loneliness and insecurity Mrs. Banks endures. White also has a nice chemistry with her Purcell, who finds a very human chord in Velasco, so that the character never appears too hammy. Brian Lafontaine is also pitch-perfect in several scenes as a telephone repairman; I'd love to see what he can do with a bigger role some time.
I mentioned the furniture move between the first and second act; there is also another intermission between the second and third acts, which I presume is done to allow for costume changes. I wish there was a way to eliminate the second intermission; it does break up the momentum, and the third act is too short to require being broken out. Nonetheless, Stacey Berman's period costumes deserve praise, as do Travis McHale's set and lighting design.
This production is a pure joy. Though Barefoot is set in the winter, it unquestionably rates as one of the must-see shows of this summer season.

Stories - the buzzword in marketing and media nowadays.
- We want to tell you our story.
- Be part of our story.
- Life is a story.
It seems that the world of marketing has finally caught up to what playwrights, directors, screenwriters, novelists and actors have known all along – humans learn, engage and communicate best through stories. The positive effects of storytelling has been studied, documented, blogged about…but why?
Why stories?
In the 1944 landmark conducted by Fritz Heider and Marianne Simmel at Smith College, 34 college students were asked to observe a short film in which2 triangles and a circle moved across the screen and a rectangle stayed on the side of the screen. When asked what they say saw, 33/34 said they that the shapes had human emotions and characteristics such as "worried", "innocent young thing", and "blinded by rage and frustration". Only one student recorded actual geometric shapes on screen.
This 1944 study discovered that human beings need to create a story to whatever it is that they are seeing - seeing and being in a narrative is in our DNA. Researchers have gone on to theorized as to why…survival, to develop communication skills however the theory that has become mainstream is we to be part of a greater shared story.
Knowing this research, marketers are trying to use storytelling as the next tool to build branding and consumer loyalty. Will it work? Will marketers not trained in writing, theatre and film be effective in this new age of marketing?
The answer to be continued…
Below is the Fritz Heider and Marianne Simmel short film - do you see human emotions or just geometric shapes on screen?

A Brave Face
Mercury Theatre, Colchester.
8 February 2018
4 Stars
Book Now
Over two years in the making, mask theatre Vamos, in a co-production with the Mercury Theatre, have created a tender, powerful piece about Post Traumatic Stress. Set between 2009 and 2011, two young lads from Middlesbrough join the British Army and are posted to Afghanistan. This short period of their lives is also the shortest period of the play, it's the devastating consequences of war, the loss of one of the soldiers and the horror witnessed, that provide the bulk of the play, especially the effects on family.
Writer and Director Rachael Savage has crafted a piece perfect in its sensitivity, which even extends into the auditorium, where measures are put into place to support any veterans or audience members suffering from PTS. There are no explosions or gunfire, when a bomb goes off we are plunged into darkness, and the play is even more effective because of the care put into it. As with all Vamos productions, I swear that the masks have expressions, the cast work so well physically that I am convinced the masks laugh and cry.
The cast are superb. As Ryan, the young soldier, James Greaves charts his journey at the highest level, from bored teenager to rookie squaddie though to shaking, terrified man, fighting his demons with booze. Family bonds are portrayed really strongly, and Joanna Holden, among her many characters, is excellent as Ryan's younger sister, cheeky, adoring and ultimately the symbol of hope. Sean Kempton is wonderfully masculine, supportive solder Jimmy, and Rayo Patel gives Ravi superb character and pathos. Angela Laverick is particularly wonderful as Ryan's mum, an Every Mum, fussing, exuding love and concern, caring.
There are so many powerful scenes, but the show does the bonding of the small group of soldiers really well. Soldiers banter, they don't deal with deep feelings, humour is their survival, and this is portrayed in just enough measure to make you feel the loss. The bond Ryan forms with an Afghanistan girl is a perfect reflection of his bond with his sister. Vamos are one of the best theatre companies working in Britain today, and they embark on a nationwide tour with A Brave Face. They are not to be missed.

Week 1 Recap: We're Highlighting the Women in City Fit Girls
By Takia McClendon
Last week, we asked the women in City Fit Girls to share their fitness and wellness stories with us and so far, the answers have been nothing short of amazing. Throughout the entire month of March, you'll have the chance to learn about (and be inspired by) the women who make up this community. If you'd like to participate, you can submit your story here.
In the meantime, check out the stories from last week and follow along our Instagram and Facebook @cityfitgirls for daily updates.
March 1: Kiera @kierasmalls
Why did you follow or join City Fit Girls? I wanted to be surrounded by a community that welcomed people who were similar to me (size, color, pace, interests). This includes who shows up to events and activities, representation in social media posts, relatable content in the weekly newsletter, etc.
Did you have a defining moment that piqued your interest in fitness/wellness? My mother passed away 10 years ago to something that I believe could have been prevented. I was a freshman in college when I got the news. It was important for me to lead a different lifestyle.
What is your accomplishment in fitness? Professionally - Being the co-founder of this awesome community is my greatest accomplishment. Personally, completing my first (and probably last lol) marathon in 2016. I was able to run the race without any asthma issues + raise $3,000 for @GearingUp.
What has been your biggest challenge in fitness/wellness? Emotional and/or mindless eating. I can do any physical activity required but when vegan donuts come around...I bow down. (insert shrug emoji). P.S I talk about this in detail at cityfitgirls.com
If you could give advice to someone who is just starting their health and wellness journey, what would it be? You can look to others for inspiration but understand what you see may or may not be their full story. Everyone's journey is different. Workout because you love your body not because you hate it. Surround yourself with people who push you and inspire you to do better. Don't be so hard on yourself.
March 2: Takia @takiamcclendon
Why did you follow/join City Fit Girls? Kiera and I started this community so that women (no matter their age, race, pace, sexual orientation) could workout together in a judgement-free environment.
Did you have a defining moment that piqued your interest in fitness/wellness? I realized that my grandparents had both passed away at a young age to preventable diseases. I also realized that many of the women in my immediate family are dealing with preventable diseases that are directly correlated with diet and exercise. It was a huge wake up call and I wanted to help change the course for my family and for my community.
What has been your biggest personal accomplishment in fitness/wellness? My biggest accomplishment was running my first half marathon in 2013. I used to think long distance running was for people who didn't look like me. It was something that I couldn't even see my self doing and now it's something that I can't see myself not doing.
What has been your biggest challenge in fitness/wellness? How did you overcome it? My biggest challenge has been dealing with extensor tendonitis in my left foot. I was completely sidelined for 2 months last year at a time where I was making a lot of progress as a runner and I still haven't recovered 100%.
If you could give advice to someone who just started their fitness/wellness journey, what would it be? I meet people who are new to fitness everyday and I get very sad when they feel like they're not good enough because of what they see in magazines, diet/fitness books and on TV. My advice would be to stop comparing yourself to others. You have to own where you are on your journey and let time, consistency and commitment take care of the rest. Lastly, I'd tell them to find their people. The fitness/wellness space isn't always the most inclusive community but there are groups, studios, clubs, etc. that are welcoming and will help you get to where you want to be.
March 3: Sharon @swimbikesharun
Why did you follow/join City Fit Girls? I had been running solo for about five months when I saw a sign in Dilworth advertising CFG group runs on Wednesday nights. I never considered myself to be someone who would enjoy group fitness, but I convinced myself that it would be nice to try something new. I went to my first group run and the rest was history!
Did you have a defining moment that piqued your interest in fitness/wellness? I had gone on a vacation and spent the whole trip feeling really uncomfortable in my body. Every picture I took was one that I hated. When I came back, I had to fill out a health assessment survey and was stunned when it told me I was obese and a high health risk. I began to assess where I was with my health and realized that I had to make healthy, active living part of my lifestyle and not just a temporary goal.
What has been your biggest personal accomplishment in fitness/wellness? My biggest accomplishment was learning how to ride a bike. I didn't learn how to ride as a kid, so as an adult I assumed I'd never learn. However, by the spring of 2015 I had lost a lot of weight,started running and even finished the Broad Street Run, so I was clearly in a good place for facing fears and taking on new challenges! I started taking out Indego bikes and with the support and help of my husband, we would go to the driveway behind the Rodin Museum, where I would practice going down a slight incline on the bike. It took about 3 cumulative hours, but eventually I finally learned how to push off and pedal! The following year I completed my first triathlon and then upgraded to clipless pedals on the bike. Now I've completed a very challenging half Ironman and I'm training for my first full Ironman this year. Never say never, friends :)
What has been your biggest challenge in fitness/wellness? How did you overcome it? My biggest challenge is emotional eating, and I can't say that I've overcome it. I try to be mindful and work to disconnect my emotions from eating, and I try to be gentle on myself if I don't always succeed. But it's a continuous challenge that I will probably be working to overcome for a while.
If you could give advice to someone who just started their fitness/wellness journey, what would it be? Don't let fear be what controls your emotions. Sometimes things will feel difficult and scary. You may not have a smashing success the first time you try something new, but that's okay. It's called a "journey" because progress is not linear. A setback is only a setback if you don't grow from it and try again. In fitness, career, and life, people don't achieve their goals by giving up when the going gets tough. People who achieve their goals are people who get back on the proverbial horse after they fall and try again. Not every race will be a PR, not every training session will feel easy, not every meal plan will go according to plan. That's just life, and it's what makes us human. Be kind to yourself, keep moving forward, and I promise you will see progress down the road.
March 4: Maria Parades-Fernandez @mfp131
Why did you follow/join City Fit Girls? I wanted to be part of an organization that was representative of my values. Being a competitive athlete is just one aspect of this, I also care about community, and the power that an active lifestyle can have on empowering others. I knew this organization was successful when I began to view it as a safe space that embraced the diversity of its members.
Did you have a defining moment that piqued your interest in fitness/wellness? When I started graduate school in 2009, I was hyper focused on my grades and neglected everything else including self-care. It caught up to me and once was reincorporated fitness into my life, everything else seemed to fall back into place.
What has been your biggest personal accomplishment in fitness/wellness? My biggest personal accomplishment is to be able to be supportive in the fitness goals of my friends and family. To me, running is a mindset or a lifestyle; as long as you have the perseverance, you're a runner. When I'm able to effectively communicate that with those I love and I see them embracing an active lifestyle, I see that as the biggest achievement of all.
What has been your biggest challenge in fitness/wellness? How did you overcome it? My biggest challenges are FONTHE (Fear Of Not Training Hard Enough). Rich Ryan (@richrunnerguy), my running coach, coined the term FONTHE and it is a true phenomenon. On social media when I'll see other athletes that are fairly comparable to my level and hitting amazing paces, lifting heavier weights, or doing two-a-days, I immediately think I should up my game. Rich has recommended that when one feels this, they should take 10 seconds to wallow and then flip the mindset to appreciation and inspiration. These other athletes have goals too and their accomplishments are proof that one can reach a higher level. In other words, just be happy for them. I embraced this mindset during #cfgstreak and hope to continue with it.
If you could give advice to someone who just started their fitness/wellness journey, what would it be? Be persistent and be proud regardless of where you are in your journey. Even when things are not going your way, if you follow through, you completed the task. In time, when it gets more manageable, you'll realize that the task has stayed the same, it's just you that has gotten stronger.

MIAMI — Wins are a weak measure of a pitcher's performance, and awards offer little more than a reason for mindless debate, but hey: R.A. Dickey's individual pursuits provide a story line, a thread of interest in the Mets' late-season malaise.
The 37-year-old knuckleballer (17-4) defeated the Marlins on Friday, 3-0, for his third shutout in a remarkable season. Dickey allowed just five hits, and tied Cincinnati's Johnny Cueto for the major-league lead in wins. He also kept alive his candidacy for the Cy Young Award, lowering his ERA to 2.63.
Ike Davis' two-run homer in the seventh, his 25th blast of the year, landed in the second deck in right field and represented the Mets' most significant offensive moment. "You know, I don't really give it much thought," Dickey said about the award, and 20 wins. "I feel good about competing for 18 right now. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it."
Dickey, in completing a start for the fifth time this year, improved to 4-0 against Miami this season, and inspired Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen to lament, "When he gives his speech for the Cy Young Award, make sure he thanks the Marlins."
Neither 20 wins nor the award is without meaning to Dickey, but those milestones are certainly not a primary focus for him, his teammates or manager. As Terry Collins sees it, Dickey will not risk a team victory, or his own health, to pursue those goals.
"This guy wants to win the Cy Young," Collins said. "He wants the opportunity to win 20 games, but he is not about to put that over and above what the team is about, and that's winning. I think that's what makes him a special guy. He is all about the team, and what that's it."
But still, the manager endorses his ace. Asked if he viewed Dickey as the NL Cy Young choice, Collins said, "I do. I do."
Dickey sees little benefit in a conscious pursuit of the prize. His success this year has come after years of refining in-the-moment mindfulness, so the best way to win a Cy Young might be to forget about it until October. "Sure, I hope for it," Dickey said. "What pitcher doesn't? What little kid doesn't, as he grows up, want to be a Cy Young Award winner. Obviously, the hope is inside me. But at the same time, I've got to be able to hold that hope, and hold the job at hand."
The Mets expect two position players on Saturday, the first day rosters can expand. Catcher Mike Nickeas will return, along with infielder Zach Lutz. Other call-ups will join the Mets on Tuesday, after Buffalo's season concludes.
"You can't strip them," Collins said. "They've still got three games in Buffalo yet."
MIAMI — Wins are a weak measure of a pitcher's performance, and awards offer little more than a reason for mindless debate, but hey: R.A. Dickey's individual pursuits provide a story line, a thread of interest in the Mets' late-season malaise.

Detox is the first and most important step in the recovery body. Physiological addiction is like a biochemical equation. The repeated substance use causes changes in the body's regular internal state, which is called homeostasis. When your body does not receive the addictive substance, your body's homeostasis is disrupted. As you may already know, your body reacts to this disruption by manifesting withdrawal symptoms (e.g. tremors, body aches, diarrhea, vomiting, anxiety, etc.). Withdrawal can be excruciating and even fatal if it is not gone through under proper medical supervision. Detox centers are the most common places to undergo withdrawal. South Florida detox programs are your best best because the staff is highly-experienced and well-trained in taking both a medical and holistic approach to treating withdrawal. Many people assume that quality comes at a price; therefore, the cost of a South Florida detox program may make you cringe. The average cost of an outpatient South Florida detox program is 300 to 800 dollars per day.
A variety of factors go into determining the exact cost of a South Florida Detox program:
- Outpatient Vs. Inpatient
Whether the program is outpatient or inpatient makes a huge difference in the cost of the program. An outpatient program consists of the patients going to see the medical staff at the facility and them going home to take the prescribed medications and follow other instructions. The medical staff may come to the patient's home to assess and monitor them. The total average cost of outpatient detox is 1,000 to 2,000 dollars. On the other hand, the total cost of inpatient detox can cost up to several thousand dollars due to the fact that the patients stay overnight at thee facility for around the clock monitoring, meals, and other amenities.
- Length of Stay
The exact length of detox depends on each individual. Your age, gender, size, medical history, type of addiction, severity of addiction, and the length of time that you were addicted are factors that determine the length of your detox. Detox can range from several days to two weeks.
- Amenities
The more amenities a detox center has, the more money the program will cost. Basic detox centers will be the cheapest because they only offer medical treatment, a bed to sleep on, and food to eat. Detox centers that provide holistic, cutting edge treatments, comfortable living quarters, and meals that are prepared by a chef and nutritionist will cost more.
- Your Insurance
If you have health insurance, you should definitely try to use it to fund your detox. Most health insurance companies recognize addiction as a disease; therefore, they cover at least part of the cost. Many detox centers will perform insurance verification for you. You can also contact your health insurance company to inquire about the exact coverage you can receive for addiction treatment.
What to Expect at a South Florida Detox Program
Fear of the unknown hinders may be hindering you from receiving the addiction help that you need. You may have heard stories about detox from your "friends" who are in active addiction or seen detox depicted in movies. If you have heard negative stories about or seen scary depictions of detox, chances are those detox centers were not South Florida detox programs. South Florida detox programs ensure your maximum level of comfort.
Upon your arrival at a South Florida detox program, you will be greeted by a friendly admissions counselor. He or she will take your basic information and psychosocial history. You will then be assessed by a medical team. They will take your vitals, go over your medical history, run some more tests, and draw up a preliminary treatment plan.
If you are staying in an inpatient detox center, you will be escorted to your room. Your room will be almost identical to your bedroom at home. You will have a clean, comfortable bed, fluffy pillow, nightstand, and window that will provide a stunning view of the sunshine state. The walls will be light colors that will provide a calm feeling. You may share a room with one other person. Your bathroom will be spotless. The medical professionals will monitor you around the clock. You may be woken up throughout the night to be monitored.
During your stay, you will eat nutritious, delicious food that is prepared by a chef and nutritionist. Since the primary focus of detox is to address the physiological component of your addiction, you will not be constantly attending counseling sessions and group therapy sessions. You may meet with a counselor or social worker to discuss your feelings about getting into recovery and your post-detox plan. You may also attend some 12-Step Meetings or group therapy sessions. In addition to medical treatment, you will also be treated with a variety of cutting-edge holistic treatments. These cutting-edge treatment include, but are not limited to, biosound therapy, yoga/meditation, acupuncture, cold laser therapy, and far infrared sauna.
Following detox, you should definitely have a rehabilitation plan to address the psychological component of your addiction. This can include inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, recovery programs, etc. Remember that detox is only the beginning of the road to recovery. Psychological healing is a much more extensive and complex process, but it is necessary for full recovery.

Steel toe boots never looked so good! Sara & Matt are both working in the Mechanical Sector, and I have never in my life seen a girl rock her Steel Toe Boots like Sara did. I sure need to get me a pair of them boots.
We had a wonderful afternoon at Birds Hill Park and what a great combination- ;beautiful surroundings, gorgeous couple and an amazing love story. In the most random turn of events, the afternoon was cold and really windy. We decided to work around the wind by finding locations in the park that shielded us. The light was beyond stunning… even the cold & wind couldn't dampen the pretty mood of their engagement photos...
It was super fun to be around this couple, and I'm so glad their wedding is coming up soon! Their chemistry is electric and I look forward to documenting their first day as husband and wife in June.
For all their photos, please visit their photo gallery by clicking on the link below.

Towards Democracy, Peace and Open Borders – South Asia Youth Summit
The Liberal Youth of South Asia (LYSA) organized the first South Asia Youth Summit in New Delhi on 24th and 25th November, 2008 providing a platform for 100 youth representatives across South Asia to discuss and debate various issues confronting the region from a liberal perspective.
"We believe that we can set an example for our political leaders about cooperation and the benefits of joining hands in overcoming barriers…. we envision a peaceful, democratic and open region…" reads the declaration at the end of the youth summit, which was hosted by Centre for Public Policy Research (CPPR) and supported by the Friedrich-Naumann-Siftung für die Freiheit. The delegates identified lack of appropriate governance as the central issue behind all the problems facing the region.
The participants discussed upon issues like Youth and Politics, Youth Participation in Development, Market Economy and South Asian Free Trade Zone, Quality Education for All: Choice & Competition, State and Democracy and Human Rights in South Asia.
The discussions carried out by the youth across the sessions mainly focused upon the major global and local developments which compel the youth to take a particular note of the policies that need to be changed and what implications these changes have for the future of youth.
The culmination of the two day summit took place at India Gate where participants formed a youth chain and lit candles in solidarity with each other to fight against terrorism and spread the message of peace. And there began the "drafting of a new South Asia."
Represented from Beyond Borders groups in Sri Lanka, India and Bangladesh were invited for the summit. Sri Lanka was also represented by the Liberal Youth Guild.
The text was adapted from the official LYSA summit Blog. For more pictures, visit our Flickr.
