New study will explore impact of exercise on pulmonary hypertension
For sufferers of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), maintaining healthy heart function isn't as simple as going for a jog every morning. Patients need to do all they can to slow damage to their heart, and exercise can potentially improve their quality of life.
On the other hand, the demands of pumping blood into stiff, large arteries and narrowed small arteries means that many PAH patients bear an increased risk of overexertion, which makes prescribing the correct amount of physical activity difficult.
Now, a University of Wisconsin–Madison biomedical engineer and colleagues hope to clear up that uncertainty in a new study seeking to quantify the impact of exercise on PAH patients.
Funded by a four-year, $2.5 million grant from the National Institutes of Health, Naomi Chesler, an associate professor of biomedical engineering at UW–Madison, will investigate the relationships between small artery narrowing, large artery stiffening and their interactions with the right side of the heart in patients with PAH.
"Most patients with pulmonary hypertension die from right heart failure, so even though the disease may be initiated in the small arteries of the lung, the impact on heart function is what's really critical," says Chesler.
Establishing how these factors relate to one another will allow Chesler and her team to develop a way of identifying PAH patients who can most benefit from regular exercise.
The objective will be finding identifiers that separate PAH patients who will benefit from exercise from those whose condition will worsen from it.
"We're trying to differentiate those people who have sufficiently good interactions between the heart and the lungs from those where the heart and lungs are not working well together," Chesler explains.
The study also builds upon Chesler's work on a previous NIH grant in which she researched how the presence of excess collagen, a fibrous protein found in connective tissues throughout the body, might contribute to pulmonary hypertension. "We're dovetailing our previous work on the role of collagen in large artery stiffening with new work on the impact of large artery stiffening on heart function. An important patient population in our new study is those with a collagen disorder," Chesler says.
Of particular interest in the study will be patients with scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis (SSc),a disease caused by excess collagen accumulation throughout the body, including blood vessels. Patients with SSc-related PAH don't have a lot of effective treatment options, but focusing on such patients in the study might identify their best treatment options.
Chesler's UW–Madison collaborators include Heidi Kellihan, clinical assistant professor in the School of Veterinary Medicine; Jim Runo, assistant professor of pulmonary medicine; Chris Francois, assistant professor of radiology; and Jens Eickhoff, biostatistics and medical informatics senior scientist. Mardi Gomberg-Maitland, an expert in pulmonary hypertension from the University of Chicago, is a consultant on the study, and Sanjiv Shah at Northwestern University will be conducting many of the patient studies, due to the large PAH patient population in Chicago.

text: I agree. It's irresponsible to fill in the blanks by assuming a player with a reputation for playing hard and with injuries is somehow dogging it. Isn't it clear that he came back still hurting? He is playing through some pain and showing a positive attitude. A reporter who wasn't lazy would base his article on some interviews rather than baseless assumptions. The article is full of misinformation.... Wrong. Rest is most often what is called for after a back injury. Wrong again. McConduit is making a huge leap in logic. 1) Allen Iverson said he would struggle with a bench role. 2) Allen Iverson is injured and sees his own doctor and isn't around during his convalescence. Conclusion: Therefore AI is using his back injury as a way to sulk about his bench role. Absolutely not supported by any facts, reality checks or interviews. It's just using some faulty, conspiracy theory type logic. Irresponsible article.

West Point, N.Y. – The Canisius College hockey team scored the final six goals of the game, including five tallies in the third period, to earn an 8-2 victory at Army on Friday night. With the win, the Griffs improve to 5-7-1 and 4-3-1 against Atlantic Hockey foes, while the Black Knights drop to 2-11-0 and 2-8-0 in league play.
Senior Kyle Gibbons led the Griffs with three points and two goals in the winning effort. With his two tallies, Gibbons becomes the third player in the program's Division I history with 50 career goals, joining Cory Conacher (2007-11) and Jason Weeks (2006-10).
Senior Patrick Sullivan, juniors Braeden Rigney and Tyler Wiseman, sophomores Ralph Cuddemi and Chris Rumble and freshman Shane Conacher also scored for the Griffs in the victory. Junior Cody Freeman paced the Canisius offense with a career-best three assists.
Senior Tony Capobianco stopped 19 shots to earn the win in goal for the Griffs.
Both teams would claim a lead in the first period just to see the other team answer right back. The Black Knights opened the scoring 3:36 into the contest, taking advantage of a Canisius turnover in the neutral zone. Army skated in on a 2-on-1 and C.J. Reuschlein finished himself for the early 1-0 lead.
Gibbons answered right back for Canisius just 67 seconds later with his seventh goal of the season. The senior gathered a loose puck in the right face-off circle and fired it into the top corner blocker-side for the 1-1 game. Cuddemi and Freeman both registered assists on the tally.
Canisius then grabbed the lead with 7:24 remaining in the opening frame when Rumble netted his second goal of the campaign. The senior fired a shot in from the blue line for a 2-1 Canisius advantage. Both Sullivan and junior Matthew Grazen posted assists on the go-ahead tally.
The Griffs lead, however, would last just 21 seconds as the Black Knights responded this time. Christian Pomarico was open on the far edge of the crease and the sophomore knocked in a pass for the 2-2 game through 20 minutes of play.
Rigney then gave Canisius the lead for good with his third tally of the season. On a rush, Sullivan found Rigney streaking toward the goal and the junior knocked the puck in for the 3-2 lead. Senior Ben Danford also registered an assist on the goal with 11:41 remaining in the second.
Gibbons then opened the dominating third period with his 50th career tally just 47 seconds into the frame, scoring in a 4-on-4 situation. The senior sent a wrist shot into the back of the net from the left face-off circle for a 4-2 Canisius advantage. Freeman and Rumble both posted assists on the tally.
Wiseman then became the first Canisius player in the program's history to score a short-handed goal with the Griffs two men down at the 3:11 mark of the period. The junior stole the puck in the neutral zone and then knocked in his own rebound for his second tally of the season.
Conacher then continued the domination with his first collegiate goal at the 6:49 mark of the period. The rookie gathered a loose puck at the blue line and scored from the slot for a 6-2 Canisius advantage. Both sophomore Stephen Miller and junior Mitch McCrank recorded assists on the tally.
Cuddemi stretched the Canisius lead to five with his third score of the season. The sophomore finished a 3-on-2 rush at the 8:25 mark with the assists going to Freeman and Gibbons. Sullivan then wrapped up the scoring for the night with his fifth goal of the year. Senior captain Ryan Bohrer stole the puck and found Sullivan free for a breakaway. The senior beat the Army goaltender to his left for the 8-2 final score.
When all was said and done, Canisius scored five goals in the final period – the most goals by the Griffs in a single period in more than 10 years. Overall, Canisius scored more goals in the frame then Army had shots (four).
The Griffs finished the game with a 35-21 advantage in shots on the night. Neither team was able to score on the power play with Canisius going 0-for-3 and killing all six Army power plays.
The two schools wrap up the series tomorrow night at Army with game time slated for 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: The eight goals by the Griffs are the most since also scoring eight in a victory over AIC on Jan. 24, 2011 … Canisius last netted five goals in a period in the second frame of a 5-2 win against Connecticut on Jan. 18, 2003 … Gibbons is now tied for second in the program's history with his 50 career tallies, matching the mark of Weeks. Cory Conacher holds the record with 62 goals from 2007 to 2011 … Rigney now has six points (3g, 3a) in the last seven games after recording 11 points in his first 57 career contests … Canisius is now 4-0-1 in its last five Atlantic Hockey games after starting the year 0-3-0 in league play … The Griffs have also won three-straight games at Tate Rink after going 3-9-2 in their first 14 games at the Division I level at Army.

Hi, I have another question... I've just read this in some book for English teachers:
The verb in the IF clause is in the past tense form, the verb in the result clause is preceded by the modal WOULD, could or might.
One of the example is:
John, if you would turn on the light there, please.
To my knowledge would and if are not supposed to be both in the same clause.
Would that be a mistake in the book or am I missing something?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Alex W
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
I picked up a symmetrical spinnaker in good condition yesterday from Second Wave. I'll try this with a pole first and get comfortable with that before flying the asymmetrical with a pole.
The new spinnaker is very light (0.5oz fabric), good for our light air but I'll need to be careful with it. It looks like a nice tri-radial cut and even though it is fairly old it appears to have barely been used. Overall I think I'll be able to find good uses for it where it compliments my asym instead of replacing it.
|Alex W
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
Thanks guys, this is helpful. I have some rigging to figure out, but it'll be fun.
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
Alex W -
Sounds like you want to rig an assym on your 28 footer with an articulating pole? I raced on a C&C115 with the same setup. Oversized pole and chute. You will need...
-A topping lift for the pole, you can do a bridle setup or just run it out to the end of the pole. Usually it's at the end of the pole on big boats for dip pole gybes.
-two sheets, very long. At least 2x the boat length, posibley more.
-two guys that are low stretch. These can be shorter, but use hi-er tech stuff.
-a foreguy that allows the chute to pass in front of the forstay (low stretch). On the C&C115 it comes out of the bow below the forstay tang. Yes there's a hole in the hull.
To gybe it you'll need to....
Ease the guy to the forestay and transfer the load to the foreguy,
Sky the inboard end of the pole,
Lower the topper,
Trip the pole off the old guy, swing the pole to the other side and make the new guy,
Gybe the boat and keep the lazy sheet from going under the boat,
Lower the inboard end, raise the topper,
Ease the foreguy, and grind back on the new guy.
It's honestly the best of both worlds but it certainly ain't easy.
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
I do use a topping lift for the mid part of the pole
The tack line works as a downhaul
I have a LONG single sheet line, so I suppose one could say 2 is needed per say.
Then I do have two lines for the pole end.
I also to gybe, need to pull the pole off, then outside (our prefered) gybe the spin, move the pole from one side to the other, rehook the pole, and then pull the pole back to an appropriate place per the wind conditions. Sometimes I fine even having the pole more or less straight forward helps vs no pole.
Hope that kinda explains things.
|Alex W
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
Marty: I understand the theory and it makes sense to me. I was asking how you have your pole rigged?
My assumption is that you need the following:
* topping lift
* downhaul
* two after guys (one port, one starboard)
* two sheets
Is that correct?
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
Using a pole on the tack does help to pull it off to the opposite side of the main. I do that frequently to get better down wind angles. Works quite well actually, and is supposed to be faster than a sym because you can get more sa to the side of the main with less overlap. Not sure with the shorter wind/leeward legs we have inpuget sound, my swag for this type of race, a sym will be faster. But if doing say a vic-maui, the AS poled out would be in the long run faster.
|Alex W
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
That was someone else's photo where it was poled out. I've never used my pole before, I just got it about 5 or 6 weeks ago.
I was going to pole out the tack. I'm climbing the mast tonight to install a topping lift.
I have the asym and use it cruising. We occasionally race the boat and I'm trying to use the pole on the tack of the asym to bring it farther to windward and run deeper.
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
Alex W, in your previous photo you had the Asym winged out like genoa going wing-on-wing. Are you planning on doing this some more? Or are you planning on poling out the tack like a symmetric? If the latter, then yes, you will need a topper and fore/after guys to stabilize the pole tip. The advantage of poling out the tack is you can actually project the kite out to windward and get better drive out of the sail. From a competitive racing standpoint, you will pay a PHRF penalty for having an "articulating bowsprit" (but who said anything about racing). Akites are designed to be sailed at hotter wind angles of 150 -165 degrees. You can "cheat" on the angle by increasing the distance between the kite and main with a bowsprit. Projecting the luff to windward is even better. The boats that do better under akites are the lighter, (planing? Think the ones Paulo likes) faster boats that get better VMG at hotter angles. Our boats are best served with symmetrics so we can hold a deeper angle. But on the other hand, A-kites are simple to rig and are easy to use single or double handed.
In your previous picture whisker poling out the clew, your boat is forced to go DDW which is slow. Remember that even spinnakers have a luff and leach and the air flows in only that direction. Don't think by whisker poling out the clew, you are reversing the airflow over the sail.
|Alex W
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
I'm bringing back this old thread.
I got a pole and have started rigging for it. When using the pole with the asym on the tack I assume it should be setup just a symmetrical spinnaker, with a topping lift, down haul and guys?
I'm starting to think that I should just get a symmetrical spinnaker as well for racing. Being able to use the lazy sheet as the after guy saves a fair amount of rigging, and jybes will be easier as well.
Re: Dousing a cruising asym without blowing the tack?
You would have been better off to use a pole to move the tack right, at least how I see your pic, with the clew to the left, ie opposite side. NOT wing on wing if you were to use a pole.

Total Shipping Time For Orders
For a question about a specific order, please log in to your account or call us at 1-866-975-4846
There are two components to total shipping time for orders.
- Once you place an order, we must process it and contact the shipping company to pick up the order from one of our warehouses.
- Once the shipping company picks up the order, they must deliver it.
Almost all of our items ship with ground service, the economical shipping option.
Time To Ship
We list the average time it takes products to ship from our warehouse on every product. Some products do ship more quickly than others, due to order volume, inventory status, and the efficiency of the warehouse shipping the product.
Our estimations of inventory status and "Times to Ship" are as fair and accurate as possible. Occasionally, a product might go out of stock.In these cases, you will be contacted with your options.
Time In Transit
All items, unless otherwise noted, ship with ground service - the most economical option. Some of our smaller products ship via UPS or FedEx. Most larger appliances ship via a truckline. Every product on the site notes which method is used to ship it. From the date of shipment, ground service rarely takes more than 5-7 business days to reach its destination. Ground shipment can be faster than that if the point of shipment and point of delivery are geographically close together.
Expedite Delivery
Expedited delivery is available on select products that ship via UPS or Fedex. If you would like expedited delivery, please select that option at checkout, if offered. If you are not offered the option for expedited shipping, that option is not available on that product.
Please note that we must still process your expedited order through our system, so an expedited order may still take several days to process before it ships from our warehouse.
If you have any questions, please call us toll free at 1-866-975-4846

California Prop 65
General Summary of Proposition 65
The "California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986" (more commonly referred to as 'Proposition 65')
was enacted to ensure that customers be properly warned when a product contains a substance known to cause cancer or
reproductive harm. The law requires the State of California to publish and maintain (annually) a list of substances
to be available to the general public. Additionally, the law requires that businesses properly notify residents of
the State of California about the presence of these substances in the products they purchase, or that may be present
in their homes, workplaces, or that otherwise may be released into the environment. The specific list contains a wide
range of naturally occurring and synthetic substances including manufacturing and construction chemicals, pesticides,
tobacco, food-additives, solvents, household products, drugs and byproducts created from a specific product usage.
For complete list of these chemicals, visit: http://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list
What is the California Proposition 65 Warning?
You may have noticed the below warning label on our products, or on products from other manufacturers. The warning has become increasingly commonplace and oftentimes raises questions about why the warning exists, and what it means to a customer. The warning itself is just one of many requirements for businesses operating in and/or selling products to customers in the the State of California. The warning does not mean that a product that includes the warning will cause cancer or reproductive harm, but rather it simply is provided in order to educate the consumer that a substance may exist. A large number of the substances listed under Proposition 65 have been in regular use for many years without any documented harm to a consumer. This is due to the low concentrations and minimal exposure that actually occurs with these substances. Those chemicals, however, have been determined by the State of California to be listed as potentially harmful.
I don't live in California. Why did my product include this warning?
In order to ensure compliance with Proposition 65 requirements we have determined that all products manufactured by
Living Direct Inc, including products sold under the EdgeStar, Avallon and Koldfront brands, should include the
above-referenced warning label. This labeling requirements exists for all of our products regardless of the
location / destination to which the product is ultimately sold and/or shipped.
We believe that our products, when used as designed, are not harmful and as such this warning is provided in order to properly conform to the requirements of Proposition 65.
For complete details regarding Proposition 65, please visit:http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65.html

Intravenous Immune Globulin (IVIg) Study
Intravenous Immune Globulin (IVIg) has been approved and used successfully for over 20 years to treat a variety of autoimmune and
immunodeficient diseases. Since the late 1990s, there has been increasing evidence that immunotherapy targeting the amyloid beta (Aβ)
peptide can be used to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). Because it contains anti-amyloid antibodies IVIg is being investigated in a
Phase III study as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
Two previous studies showed statistical improvement in cognition while reducing amyloid levels in the brain, thought to contribute
to AD development. IVIg contains antibodies that bind to oligomeric and fibrillar beta amyloid. This provides a justification for
studying IVIg as a means for passive immunotherapy of AD. Passive immunization might provide a successful alternative to active
amyloid vaccination for the treatment of AD.
The Phase III double-blind, placebo-controlled study, called GAP (Gammaglobulin Alzheimer's Partnership) Study is further examining
the safety, effectiveness and tolerability of IVIg in mild to moderate AD patients. GAP is recruiting 360 participants at approximately
38 sites nationwide. The study will last a maximum of 82 weeks. Two-thirds of participants will receive IVIg and one-third will get placebo.
Sites are looking for study volunteers who fit the following criteria:
Participants will be tested at research sites and if they qualify will be treated intravenously every two weeks for 18 months (70 weeks).
The first three infusions will occur at the research site. If they are well tolerated successive infusions may be done by a healthcare
professional at the participants' homes or other appropriate locations.
To learn how to participate in the study, contact NIA's Alzheimer's Disease Education and Referral (ADEAR) Center at 1-800-438-4380 or by email to email@example.com.

"It seems politically unrealistic to think you could get to a balanced budget" in a decade, said Robert Bixby, executive director of the Concord Coalition, a non-partisan organization devoted to deficit reduction.
That's particularly true, Bixby said, in view of the Republican vow to avoid further tax increases for deficit reduction.
"I don't see it," said Bixby, adding that "it'll be a very useful exercise to see how" Boehner might do it.

What components are evaluated as a part of the Eco Responsible Packaging Program?
Customers desiring to be in the program must qualify on three dimensions: damage prevention, right-sizing (cube utilization), and packaging materials (materials content). Each dimension will be rated separately, and customers must pass on all three dimensions to be considered eligible for the program.
1. Damage prevention:
Using the industry standard for parcel shipping, shippers are evaluated to ensure that the packaging practices minimize damages. When a product has to be replaced, re-shipped and the original damaged item possibly returned and disposed of, the carbon footprint is multiplied.
How do we evaluate this?
We simulate all the conditions and forces a package will encounter on its journey. We perform compression tests, drop tests, vibration and shock tests. Our tests meet ISTA- 3A standards, which calibrate to simulate the small package environment. Each test is accompanied by a comprehensive report including a detailed analysis of the tests performed and recommendations for improvement.
2. Right-sizing:
This evaluation means that we determine the best configuration for the secondary, outside package. We also determine the best pallet load configuration for warehousing and shipping. The end result is the best utilization of available space - so customers can ship smaller cartons, or more products in a single carton.
How do we evaluate this?
We use a proprietary matrix that determines how much "air" should be allowed in a box. We consider several variables: 1) the durability class of the product shipped (e.g., light bulbs need more protection than a pair of socks), 2) whether the shipper is a case pack or a pick-and-pack operation. Pick and packs involve a larger variety of SKUs, and therefore it is harder to match box size exactly to the contents of any given order.
3. Packaging materials:
This evaluation provides a review of shipping materials, such as examining corrugated recycled content, packaging and closure materials. Careful consideration must also be given to the filler material. For example, styrofoam may not be the most sustainable application.

What is nut flour? Different than almond flour?
Should we just use chicken breast when it says 4 oz chicken?
What does the "T" stand for in the water measurement?
I don't think I did something right. The crust is just falling off of the chicken breast. Any suggestions?
My attempt at this turned out anything but "crunchy"; we had to fry it in some EVOO for about 20 seconds to get some crispiness. There were still portions that had the flour plain white after 40 minutes.
Mine turned out very bland and not crunchy either. anybody have any suggestions to liven this one up a little?
Just made this w cyan pepper, Italian seasoning mixed in the nut flour to liven it up. YUM!!!!
This didn't taste like anything, very disappointed!
I made this the other night, turned out very good! After reading the reviews, I added some seasonings to the flour, then rolled the chicken in a little coconut after the flour, and browned it in a little oil before baking it. Made enough to have it for lunch, then grilled some shrimp and broke up the leftover chicken, topped it on a salad with strawberries & mango for dinner.
I'm using the sample paleo plan meal plan to try out paleo for fun this week. I knew I would spend about 20% more than usual on groceries this week (on meat), so skipped buying the nut flour called for in this recipe. Instead, I used the unsweetened coconut flakes called for in the sample shopping list for another recipe. I also used finely diced ginger root (also called for for another recipe) and added that with the coconut flakes, along with salt and pepper. DELICIOUS. So, so good! Already looking forward to lunch tomorrow!
I dont see the nutritional information provided here…
when I read this recipe, I got very excited. It remindes me of a recipe I created in my pre-paleo days "yogurt chicken". Soooooo, after reading negative reviews, on the recipe as written, I combined the 2. Yummy, crispy, and my kids asked for 3rds!
in the egg wash: add 2T honey and 3T dijon everything else as the recipe states.
Spray with a light mist of EVOO
Bake as directed but cook til just underdone and change the oven to broil and place under the broiler for about 2 minutes to brown and crisp.
Perfect honey dijon almond crusted chicken!!!
nut flour is the flour made of nuts so almond flour is a nut flour
I make this recipe at least once a month. I alternate between almond flour & coconut flour. I generally bake for a little more than recipe states. Turns out very well & crispy. My family loves it!
The key to getting a good crust is to bake at 425. Finishes in closer to 25 minutes.
I make a chicken similar to this but I marinate the chicken in mustard, lots of it, before coating it in the nut flours. Seriously a lot of it. I use a cup of mustard slathered all over the chicken. Sounds crazy, but the mustard taste of the final product is not strong. I would do the mustard, one coat of flour, then the egg, and then a second coat of flour. Adds a nice kick!
For those of you that do turn out with a crispy result…..did you raise the temperature in the oven to get that result as suggested by someone earlier?
Definitely need to put it on a 425 oven temp. I added oregano, basil, garlic powder and Parmesan cheese to the dry ingredients along with flax seed and coconut flour. This stretches the expensive almond flour. Leftovers I will make chicken parm. Tomato sauce and topped with mozzarella bake again at high temp to melt cheese. P.S. this is the first time I made it.
Do you have the nutrition content for this dish?
I'm thinking there was a slight error when you added nutrition. It states it's only 6 calories and 335 servings.
Other than that it was Delicious! I baked it at 425 for 25 minutes like some have suggested. At that temperature it created a nice crispy coating over most of the chicken pieces.
I just made this tonight and it was delicious!!! My husband and I both went back for seconds. The trick to getting this crunchy/crispy is to cook it at 425 as others have tried. I also added some lemon juice to the eggs and left out the water which made it more flavorful. After dipping it in the egg mixture, I coated it in the almond flour and then in coconut shavings and then repeated. It made a nice, thick crust and added more flavor. Also, instead of putting the salt and pepper in the flour mixture, I just sprinkled it on both sides after it was coated. That way, more of the seasoning makes it into the chicken. Delicious!
What can I say, another good recipe. Soaked the chicken strips in dijon mustard as suggested, added some paprika and oregano to the flour and it was great. I did the 425 for 25 min then tried to broil for a couple more minutes, but didn't want it to burn. Just need to find a way to get the crispyness on the breading, without it falling off :) And for the the kiddos I added parmesan cheese to the almond flour, it was a hit!
I have always found it better when breading chicken to add some spices to the raw chicken BEFORE dipping in egg/flour. I think I saw that on Alton Brown. Anyway, I added some smoked paprika to the chicken before egg-ing it and it was GOOD. Reminded me of the days when my Mom made "Shake-n-bake". Next time I will bump up the temp to make it more crispy like everyone has suggested.
Cut two large chicken breasts the long way into strips about half an inch in width. Used tapioca flour, Italian seasoning, pepper and sea salt for the dry mix. Used the egg wash mentioned above. Baked in the oven for 25 minutes and them fried with EVOO for a bit to crisp up the outside. Delicious.
Pretty darn good, I'll say! What are some paleo friendly spices I can use for everyday cooking?

Mani Friday: July 4th Polishes
Happy Mani Friday! July 4th is coming, and we all know what that means - amazing nail art! (And celebrating independence and barbecues and all that jazz.) For today's post I've highlighted some great red, white and blue (and a couple of metallics and a glitter for good measure) lacquers to get you started on your festive mani. Whether you want to go super traditional or sparkly-glam, these polishes have got you covered.
What are you rockin' on your nails for the 4th? Post your holiday nails in the comments below and I'll pick my faves to feature on Mani Friday next week!
Ciate Paint Pots Nail Polish in Mistress
Sephora Collection Color Hit Nail Polish in Under The Covers
Clinique A Different Nail Enamel in Splish Splash
Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Harsh
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Nail Lacquer in Cruising
Need more inspiration? Check our our Nailspotting board on Pinterest> http://seph.me/LC4vJm
Well I did these nails all by myself, I'm extremely proud of them, cause i have zero talent with nail art! I was trying to do stripes with tape and what not but it wasn't working so i just decided to do Fireworks cause it's easy enough! Now i wish i did all of them with tips!
After I planned to do this, I saw similar ideas on Instagram. I figured a lot of people would go for a gradient or watermarble, and I am one of them! lol. It has been a while since I went for a gradient.
Please ignore the clean up job. I'm still getting use to polishing over fresh acrylics.
It reminds me of the red, white, and blue Popsicles lol. Polishes I used:
Essie Blanc
Sephora by OPI A Cherry On Top
China Glaze Ride the Wave
Atomic Polish Bowie in Space
I did a basic gel polish with my favorite shade called Reserve from the brand Gelish. Topped it off with "I can't believe it" gel glitter then loose silver/holo glitter flake for extra pizzazz!

Hello new to TDH, seen it, used it for my Jango build, and now a member. Anyhow, i've been working on my Jango Costume for a while, nearing completion, almost out of cash and was wondering what kind of blasters are good to get that are LOW budget. I'm mainly looking for ones that are cheap and the right size, i can mod and color them. I was looking at the rubies and color them, but i don't know how long they are. I know that they aren't the best quality, but i need some for Texas comicon in about 3 weeks.
Another question, i need some guantlets, and i see everyone talking about Bobamaker, cruzer, fettbuilder etc... where do you go to get these?
Thanks for any help!

I think many of us have similar complaints to lodge. At least we're all in the same boat.
Not me. My team sucks this week. I gave them the first few games off.
Lucky you.
Roscoe, I'm gonna hurt you like a $5.00 All you Can Eat Indian Buffet. Too much tandoori chicken. Too much Chicken Tikka Masala and too much Bengan Bharta. You stomach will cry uncle and aunty, and all your cousins for good measure but no amount of Pepsid AC will cure what the Infirmary will do to you.
Okay...I bought StatTracker. When I click Launch StatTracker I get a new blank window that says Click to activate and use this control. After clicking the window, I get the same blank window with a message in the lower left status bar that says load: class y.nbast.0 not found I ignored having no stat track last week since the matchup didn't count, but what gives now?
Are you launching the stat tracker at the top of the page? That's really weird. I've never had that problem.
Try it in another browser (IE, Firefox, etc.).
Launch StatTracker toward the upper right of the page. Sounds like I need to contact yahoo.
Try this detteam: Why doesn't the NHL Stat Tracker java applet work? - Yahoo! Answers
you need java.
I tried a number of settings in IE and did a number of reboots with no success. I then did a Java update and that fixed the problem...StatTracker looks well worth the money. Thanks Bill As a token of my esteem, I'll try to not kick your kid's butt too bad this week ;)
I get the same click here message which I just ignore and about ten seconds later the ST window pops open.
Track this stat: My boy Shaun Marion grabbed 24 rebounds last night. And had 17 points and 5 steals. If anyone would like to concede now, I understand.
Yeah, yeah, yeah...against Miami I hope you enjoyed it cuz Dwight won't let him get away with those boards tonight
That's impressive..until you look at Kevin Garnett.
Shawn Marion is ok. I like Chris Kaman
Me too. He would be on my fantasy team in advanced...except someone really talked me out of it. Isn't that right...person who talked me out of it. Oh yeah, and I'd have picked up Daniel Gibson as a free agent...but no...that same person had me get some other bum...was it Duhon? I can't remember...I'll have to ask SLIPPY!!!!!!!!!!
HEY! Where's them Mad Ants? Matrix who? Even old man Hill managed to chump his numbers

Course Description
EN 111 College Composition I
4 cr.
Offered: Fall, Winter, Summer
Prerequisite: Appropriate standardized scores or successful completion EN 090 or EN 109. Students who are part of the honors program should consult with the honors program director.
- Applies toward the division I liberal studies requirement.
This course develops students' abilities to write, read, and discuss paragraphs and short essays about significant subjects. During the semester, each student will generate a minimum of 5000 words of college-level writing.
Note: A grade of "C" or better is required to enroll in EN 211.

The MPA is housed in the Political Science and Public Administration Department. In addition, courses from other departments augment the core requirements. This interdisciplinary approach to graduate education enables MPA students to benefit from the numerous areas of expertise and diverse perspectives represented throughout the university.
Pre-service students (those without one year of prior relevant work experience) are required to enroll in a public administration internship. In-service students (those with one or more years of prior relevant work experience) may request exemption from the internship requirement.
Students must submit two approved file papers, and pass a written and oral comprehensive examination prior to graduation.
Applicants are required to comply with the regular admission requirements of the Office of Graduate Education. In addition:
- MPA applicants must also have at least a 3.00 undergraduate GPA or a 3.00 GPA based on 12 or more semester hours of graduate work.
- Applicants must submit an essay explaining how the MPA will assist in the advancement of their goals.
- Submit scores from the GRE.
Application materials are reviewed by the MPA director and a two-person faculty graduate screening committee.
Conditional admission will be granted to students with an undergraduate GPA of 2.75 - 3.00. Students granted conditional admission must receive a minimum grade of "B" (3.00) in each of their first three courses after admission to the program.
Applications are accepted throughout the year.
Up to four credits of requirements may be waived in recognition of prior, relevant professional work experience in a particular subject area. The director of the graduate program in public administration and one faculty member will review requests for professional experience credit and make appropriate recommendations to the assistant provost of graduate education. The request will include a detailed job description, an employer's evaluation of the employee's performance, and a student essay describing how his/her work experiences provided knowledge that would have been gained in the designated course.
Each student will need to work with the MPA director to identify the appropriate option for their individual educational and professional goals.
Students who choose the thesis option will be required to sign up for 6 credit hours of thesis credit and AIS 435 instead of elective hours. Students who choose the thesis option do not have to take PS 592. The thesis can be used as evidence of one's ability to carry out successfully in-depth research. Students are expected to follow the Office of Graduate Education thesis guidelines when writing their thesis.
To fulfill this requirement, students must complete a portfolio of superior quality, and make a presentation based on its contents to a three person faculty review committee. This committee will evaluate both the portfolio itself and the presentation. The presentation should be scheduled for one hour. During that hour students are expected to make a presentation centered on their portfolio for no longer than 15-20 minutes. The rest of the hour will be devoted to a question and answer exchange between faculty members and the student.
The portfolio is designed to accomplish at least three fundamental things. First, it indicates students are capable of master's level research and writing. Second, it indicates mastery of important professional skills (e.g., quantitative analysis or strategic management). Third, the portfolio should demonstrate students' professional growth and development over the span of the MPA program. The student will work with the MPA director to develop his or her portfolio.

I am very grateful that I come across this blog, i got some ideas on how to make some touches on my bathroom accessories. Thank you so much!ReplyDelete
The red towel really adds a splash of colour to the bathrooms decor and stands out. The candles are a nice idea too as they can be used at bath time instead of the bright overhead ceiling light, they make the room look quite romantic and create a chilled atmosphere. Working as a plumber I see all kinds of styles of bathrooms whilst on my rounds and the most beautiful are always the white designs with a particular colour as a feature.ReplyDelete
Some great and awesome bathroom accessories you have. I love the whole bathroom.ReplyDelete

Guardianship: Free and Reliable Information
Authored By: Texas Young Lawyer's Association, Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services
- Contents
- Information A Texas Guide to Adult Guardianship Protecting the Incapcitated: From Application to Oath
Content below excerpted from the Texas Aging and Disabilities Website:
Some people need help managing their daily affairs because of their age, a disease or an injury. If this happens, a court of law may appoint a guardian for them.
Guardian and ward are legal terms used to indicate the relationship between someone who protects another (the guardian) and the person being protected (the ward). In Texas, the process to appoint a guardian includes:
Filing an application with a court
Having a hearing before a judge
Having a judge appoint a guardian, if one is needed
Because having a guardian takes away a person's rights, it should be the last and the best choice to protect someone. Before asking a court to appoint a guardian, other options are usually tried first, such as:
Finding someone to help the person pay bills and manage money
Finding someone to help the person make decisions, including health care decisions
Enrolling the person in available community services, including Medicaid programs

Harrison Electric: Results From Detroit
By Lindy Lindell at ringside
Photos: Bob Ryder
Two straight rights to the grill of Thomas Amarro, and Detroit's undefeated junior-middleweight Tony Harrison had him set up. But Amarro, probably thinking that another buzz-inducing right was on his way, left his right side open and when the left hook followed shortly thereafter, it was all over except for the counting.
Dubbed the Night of the Knockouts III at Detroit's MotorCity Casino Hotel, the Greg Ahrens production played to a near-capacity crowd at that venue's Sound Board; the crowd, including a large contingent of Harrison's followers, erupted into such an infectious rage of glee that the thoroughly pumped Harrison, after slapping a gloved five with legend Thomas Hearns, joined his well-wishers onto a platform just below ringside by scaling the top rope. The over-the-top celebration for Harrison (12-0, 9 Ks) over novice Amarro, (2-1) was way disproportionate to what was "just a tuneup," but it was great theatre, partly because the outburst was so unexpected.
The Detroit boxing fan (count this journalist as one) is starving for action and has been since the heyday of Hearns; hopefully, the powers that be and those with the influence at MotorCity Casino Hotel are ready to step forward after more than a dozen years of showing at best lukewarm interest. When Detroit became the first major city in the U.S. (Vegas was a small town when the when casinos were introduced there in the 1950s), it was believed by boxing cognoscente that with the expiration of the contract of USA Boxing, mostly at the Palace of Auburn Hills, at the turn of the century, that the three casinos would pick up the slack. Despite the probes of the most successful promoter at the time, Bill Kozerski, who had a decade-long run of USA television at the Palace, and many others, including the late Emanuel Steward, the "hope" that boxing would thrive in the Motor City has met with disappointment and increased pessimism by those wishing for a turnaround.
This is not the time and place to trot out a laundry list of why Detroit casinos should entertain the sport of boxing in their midst. Nor is it the place to go beyond the mere reiteration of the opposing viewpoint: that the casinos have sound reasons for not welcoming the sport, especially since everything in casinoland is predicated by the Great God Drop. Still, when the next pitch is made to sell the sport to MotorCity Casino Hotel, the presenters of said pitch would do well to include a tape of Harrison's knockout of Amarro and the excitement it generated.
In other action, middleweight Darryl Cunningham, 28-4, gave his best performance in two years in decisioning a stubborn Ruben Galvan over eight rounds; the shutout on all three cards was predictable, but this time out Cunningham flashed combinations in earnest that sometimes bordered on flurries.
The action welterweight Lanardo Tyner, 29-8-2, easily destroyed a hapless Gabe Morris of Toledo with three knockdowns (one questionable) in the first. Tyner was so disgusted with the weakness of his foe that he very nearly laid leather on him after flattening him in a corner for the third knockdown. Matchmaker Carlos Llinas had plugged Morris in on very short notice into the gap, but only reluctantly, when another opponent had fallen out.
That wasn't the only fallout that necessitated a mismatch, much to Llinas' discouragement, but the evening still proved to be, if less than a classic night of boxing, a sometimes entertaining one due to Harrison's magic and a very good matchup between two novice but skilled junior-middles Alegandro Hernandez, Detroit, and Anthony Kelly, Toledo, a contest that ended in a majority draw.
In other action, undefeated Windsor, Canada, heavyweight Ali Mansour (12-0), easily toppled the once tough Dione Craig with three knockdowns in the first; the wild-swinging, pint-sized featherweight James Smith, Detroit, overwhelmed a surprisingly tough Mateo Soto in one round; Dwayne Williams decisioned Drew Morias in a battle of local lightheavies; and Mara Marquez, Detroit, sporting a Boy George haircut, stopped an overwhelmed Tiana Barber, Toledo, whose hair and Marquez' punches kept getting in her face, in two heats.


text: Very interesting article in my local paper today. http://www.theage.com.au/opinion/so...ff-the-final-female-taboo-20130206-2dyoq.html Is this the final female taboo? I am fortunate in that nobody really makes a big deal about towards childless me. Never been an issue in my family, although I have had a couple of friends who quite a few years ago were adamant that I would one day really want to have kids, not matter how much I said I was not interested. At 46 I think they have finally accepted that I am just not that way inclined. Still it is good to get a perspective on your world.

How long will global warming last?
Guest commentary from David Archer (U. Chicago)
The notion is pervasive in the popular and scientific literature that the lifetime of anthropogenic CO2 released to the atmosphere is some fuzzy number measured most conveniently in decades or centuries. The reality is that the CO2 from a gallon out of every tank of gas will continue to affect climate for tens and even hundreds of thousands of years into the future.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks (2005) has the CO2 lifetime listed as 5-200 years, for example [1]. I have seen "hundreds of years" in scientific manuscripts and in environmentalist literature. David Goodstein in his excellent book The End of the Age of Oil states, "If we were to suddenly stop burning fossil fuel, the natural carbon cycle would probably restore the previous concentration in a thousand years or so." I assume that Goodstein is conservatively applying several century-long e-folding times to derive his thousand years, but he implicitly assumes that the CO2 will relax toward its 1750 concentration. The point is that it does not.
When you release a slug of new CO2 into the atmosphere, dissolution in the ocean gets rid of about three quarters of it, more or less, depending on how much is released. The rest has to await neutralization by reaction with CaCO3 or igneous rocks on land and in the ocean [2-6]. These rock reactions also restore the pH of the ocean from the CO2 acid spike. My model indicates that about 7% of carbon released today will still be in the atmosphere in 100,000 years [7]. I calculate a mean lifetime, from the sum of all the processes, of about 30,000 years. That's a deceptive number, because it is so strongly influenced by the immense longevity of that long tail. If one is forced to simplify reality into a single number for popular discussion, several hundred years is a sensible number to choose, because it tells three-quarters of the story, and the part of the story which applies to our own lifetimes.
However, the long tail is a lot of baby to throw out in the name of bath-time simplicity. Major ice sheets, in particular in Greenland [8], ocean methane clathrate deposits [9], and future evolution of glacial/interglacial cycles [10] might be affected by that long tail. A better shorthand for public discussion might be that CO2 sticks around for hundreds of years, plus 25% that sticks around forever.
The sticking-around-forever idea is not new, and the picture has not changed by very much since the effect was first predicted back in 1992 [2]. You can estimate the magnitude of the effect pretty well just using CO2 thermodynamics and the back of an envelope. It could be argued (by someone with a cruel heart) that since we don't understand why CO2 was lower during the last ice age, we ought not go around making forecasts for the future. Well, OK, but I would point out that CO2 in the past appears to act as an amplifier for orbitally forced climate change, so if anything, we might expect the carbon cycle in the future to amplify our own climate forcing, rather than counteract it. If the past is any guide, CO2 surprises in the future, in the long run, seem unlikely to help us out.
A long lifetime for CO2 adjustment is also consistent with an isotopic event in the deep sea sedimentary record from 55 million years ago, the Paleocene/Eocene Thermal Maximum event. The record tells the story of the sudden release of an isotopically light source of carbon, triggering a fast warming in the deep sea of about 5 degrees C. Both the carbon isotope signal and the temperature (inferred from oxygen isotopes) then relaxed back toward their initial values in about 100,000 years. If the released carbon were initially in the form of methane, it would have been oxidized to CO2 within a few decades, but as CO2 it apparently stuck around, warming the deep ocean, for a long time before it went away.
The shortest lifetime estimates, such as EPA's 5-years, derive from the exchange flux of CO2 between the atmosphere and ocean, which is about 200 Gt C/year (1 Gt C is 1012 kg of carbon) in each direction. Because the exchange flux is back-and-forth, it has nothing to do with the net uptake by the ocean of new CO2 to the system, which relies on the imbalance between the upward and downward exchange fluxes. That imbalance is only about 2 Gt C/year.

plentyofpaws, BEWARE,
I did the same thing recently. Bought an inexpensive light/laser combo for my 24/7 home defense gun. I took the setup out to the range after zeroing in the laser at 21 feet. After 1 mag, 15 shots the light lens was covered with powder residue. I was shooting outside in daylight so I don't know how the light was truly affected but it was severely darkened. The second mag saw the laser go out on the 4th shot. It seems the entire insides blew out forward from the pressure of a battery spring. The wires all disconnected, rendering the light useless as well. The unit was a cheapy in the $50 range. Glad it happened during a range session and not in an HD situation. If I do it again, I'll only buy a reputable unit with a warranty at a gun shop.

I have the Asok lid and it's almost too small for me, and I dont even have a big head. The tip of my nose just rubs on the inside of the visor :( apart from that it fits me fine.
I'll admit that helmet does look a little too large on you, also at first glance your armour looks a little bit large aswell.

text: One of my favorite skaters in the 90s was Tanja Szewczenko. It really was a shame that a combination of injuries, illness and bad luck derailed her career following her World bronze. Was it ever made public which illnesses she struggled with during the 199 season? Certainly none of my business if this was something she chose to keep private. As with another one of my favorites, Caryn Kadavy, I could never understand how she wasn't able to withdraw from the Olympic Games because of the flu while being heavy favorites for a medal. In Tanja's case, I'm sure there was a bit more hesitation given her previous issues, but surely she could have at least given the SP a try - as Kadavy had done - particularly given how hard she worked to get back. Her performance at 1998 Wolrds was devastating. After such a strong start to her season, it was so disappointing to see her struggle when she had a legitimate shot at least a silver. It was also frustrating to see her crash into the boards during the SP for at least the 2nd time in her career (the first being 1995 Worlds). A clean SP may have made all the different in getting her on the podium, with the poor skates of the other top contenders. Has anyone seen any of her performances from the 1999 or 2000 seasons, or know anything about her programs? Wish had she had at least been able to make it to Worlds one last time, or been able to finish a trip to Euros as I believe she had to withdraw in 1999... She must hold the record for the most withdrawals. Was she assigned to any GPs during either of those seasons? Anyway, just a thread to reminisce and discuss; for having such bad luck, she did seem to pull it together at some big meets- 1993, 1994 and 1996 Worlds, as well as 1994 Olympics and 1998 GPF and Euros, both of which I feel she should have won.

"I have left among you two things; you will never go astray as long as you hold fast to them: the Book of Allah and my Sunnah." (Al-Hakim)
Whoever obeys the messenger has obeyed Allah. If anyone turns away, We did not send you to them as their keeper. (Surat an-Nisa', 80)
No, by your Lord, they are not believers until they make you their judge in the disputes that break out between them, and then find no resistance within themselves to what you decide and submit themselves completely. (Surat an-Nisa', 65)
When Allah and His messenger have decided something it is not for any man or woman of the believers to have a choice about it. Anyone who disobeys Allah and His messenger is clearly misguided. (Surat al-Ahzab, 36)… Whatever the messenger gives you you should accept and whatever he forbids you you should forgo. Have fear [and respect] of Allah - Allah is severe in retribution. (Surat al-Hashr, 7)The reply of the believers when they are summoned to Allah and His messenger so that he can judge between them, is to say, "We hear and we obey." They are ones who are successful. (Surat an-Nur, 51)
You who believe! Respond to Allah and to the messenger when He calls you to what will bring you to life! Know that Allah intervenes between a man and his heart and that you will be gathered to Him. (Surat al-Anfal, 24)
Who is better: someone who founds his building on fear [and awareness] of Allah and His good pleasure, or someone who founds his building on the brink of a crumbling precipice so that it collapses with him into the fire of Hell? Allah does not love wrongdoers. (Surat at-Tawba, 109)
