TORONTO, Cananda - Nothing comes easy for Toronto FC, it seems, be it posting a win or hiring a manager.
In a somewhat bizarre turn of events Tuesday, the struggling MLS franchise unveiled new head coach Ryan Nelsen only to acknowledge it's not sure when the veteran New Zealand defender will be free to lead the club.
The 35-year-old Nelsen is under contract through June 30 to Queens Park Rangers, which is mired at the bottom of the English Premier League's relegation zone.
The MLS season kicks off March 2, with players reporting to training camp later this month. QPR finishes its league schedule May 19.
Nelson will not be involved in this month's MLS combine or SuperDraft, although TFC said he would be in daily contact with the club.
With the cost of relegation pegged at $40 million in the first year alone, despite league parachute payments to soften the blow, QPR (2-12-7) is understandably reluctant to release a defensive stalwart like Nelsen without a ready replacement.
So Toronto's new manager could suit up for QPR this weekend. Then again, QPR boss Harry Redknapp could give him the green light to leave at any time.
Tuesday's news conference came just three days after Nelsen played 71 minutes in QPR's 1-1 FA Cup tie with West Bromwich Albion.
Nelsen was unable to say when he might be able to devote his full attention to Toronto, noting only that he had to be "respectful" of his obligations to QPR.
Talks on securing his English club release are planned but Nelsen suggested a winning streak that takes the team out of the drop zone would help.
Nelsen's hiring is the latest move by Toronto president and GM Kevin Payne to turn around a team that posted a league-worst 5-21-8 record last season.
For Payne, Nelsen is worth the wait.
"My feeling about Ryan is that he's going to be leading this team for five years to come and if I have to wait a couple of months to start that process, I can afford to wait. I'd rather do that than make the wrong decision or decision I didn't want to make for the short-term."
Payne called Nelsen's hiring "the dawn of a new era." For those keeping track, the Kiwi is Toronto's eighth coach in six playoff-free years.
To make way for Nelsen, Payne fired manager Paul Mariner. The former England international, who took over 10 games into the disastrous 2012 season, joins the long list of TFC coaches paid to take an early exit.
Mariner, who joined the club in January 2011 as director of player development, leaves with a managerial record of 4-12-8 record in MLS play — which is not bad, considering he took over a 1-9-0 team.
But his thin squad, beset by injuries, finished the season with an 0-10-4 run. Payne said he needed to change the culture at the club.
As a novice coach, Nelsen is a bold hire. But Payne has a history of choosing managers fresh from the playing ranks in Peter Nowak, Ben Olsen and now Nelsen.
"You understand, by definition, they don't have coaching experience but they have the intangibles that make them leaders," Payne said. "And that's the most important quality.
"They need the right kind of support around them."
For Nelsen, that will be Fran O'Leary. The Irish native, a longtime friend of Nelsen's who most recently was head coach at Bowdoin College, has been appointed assistant coach and director of player recruitment. O'Leary, a veteran coach with the licenses to show for it, will lead the team in Nelsen's absence.
Payne and Nelsen go back to 2001 when Payne drafted Nelsen fourth overall in the MLS Superdraft. Nelsen left for England in 2005 to play for Blackburn Rovers and then Tottenham and QPR under the likes of Mark Hughes, Sam Allardyce, Paul Ince and Harry Redknapp.
A steady defender, he has made more than 200 Premier League appearances, mostly for Blackburn.
Nelsen said while he has obligations to QPR, his knees have been telling him it's time to retire as a player.
"It feels right now. I feel it's a really good time now to put my fingerprint, my DNA on a team," he said.
"This is a challenge that I think is so exciting. I can't wait. I can't wait to get going," he added.
Payne said there are no plans for Nelsen to ever play for Toronto FC.
Nelsen has not taken the coaching badges that many managers collect. But he has captained D.C. United, Blackburn and the New Zealand national team and made a study of his managers.
"Ryan has better leadership qualities than any professional athlete than I have ever been around," said Payne, who said Nelsen was his only managerial candidate.
"Of all the players that have ever played on my teams — and there's have been a lot of them and a lot of phenomenal players, — Ryan Nelsen, more than any one of those, convinced me at an early age that he would be a very very very successful head coach when he was done playing," Payne added.
Nelsen referred to Toronto FC several times as "a shining light" and "beacon" for MLS franchises.
He promised fans his team will match their intensity and passion on the field.
"They'll never give up," he said. "They'll never die, they'll never fall over for any team."
Nelsen said he has to study up on his new team. But Payne said his new coach has already been burning the midnight oil, studying videos of his new players.
Nelsen adds to a team whose spine has been stiffened with the recent addition of veteran defender Danny Califf, a former U.S. national team captain. Payne also said he expects captain Torsten Frings, a former German World Cup star, to be back in full health this season.
"Califf is a big add for this team," said Payne, who has not finished adding to the squad.
"We're looking for men, we're looking for real character on this team," he added. "We're going to have a lot of young players too. We're going to invest money in young players but we need to have the right people around to teach those young players what it takes to be successful."
Payne acknowledged the circumstances of Nelsen's delayed arrival were unusual.
"It's not an ideal situation. I'd love it if Ryan was able to start full-time tomorrow or today," Payne said. "But we understand the situation.
"And frankly one of Ryan's qualities that I appreciate so much is his sense of responsibility. And his understanding he needs to fulfil his (QPR) obligation. Ryan wouldn't be the person that I know he is if he just walked away from QPR at a time when they're in a critical situation."
Asked to name a similar player-manager-different-club situation, Payne pointed to Los Angeles Lakers guard Steve Nash, who doubles as general manager of the Canadian men's team.
As for QPR, the club acknowledged Nelsen's new position in Toronto while noting he remains on its roster.
"Nelsen is under contract with QPR until June 30th 2013, however, he has requested to enter dialogue with QPR boss Harry Redknapp to discuss when he will join up with his new club," the London club said in a statement.
"In the meantime, Nelsen will be available for the R's Barclays Premier League fixture against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend."
Said Payne: "In the long term, it is worth the wait."
NOTES — Payne says he expects Ecuador winger Joao Plata to remain on loan this season ... The Toronto boss also says he has had a lot of interest in Toronto's first and third overall pick in the MLS draft.

Medication and psychotherapy may be beneficial for patients suffering from body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). But a new Cochrane Review found that much more research is required to determine the most effective treatment and whether both approaches should be used in combination.
Body dysmorphic disorder affects as many as one in 20 people. Patients suffering from BDD worry obsessively about their physical appearance, with concerns frequently but not exclusively focused on the skin, hair and nose, and often have very low levels of self-esteem. Many are also diagnosed with depression and around a quarter may attempt suicide. According to Cochrane Researchers, however, there is currently very little evidence regarding the relative effectiveness of drug treatment and psychotherapy approaches.
"Given the number of people suffering from BDD and the level of distress caused, it is surprising that so little data is available on treatments. This is certainly a field that deserves additional attention and funding," said lead researcher, Jonathan Ipser, who works at the MRC Research Unit for Anxiety and Stress Disorders at the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa.
Ipser and colleagues carried out a systematic review of currently available evidence, analysing data from four trials, which together included 169 patients. They found that over half of people treated in a single trial with the antidepressant fluoxetine for 12 weeks showed improvement, compared to less than a quarter of those given a placebo. And in two 12 week trials of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), symptom severity was significantly reduced. Both types of treatment were well tolerated, with no severe adverse effects reported.
"Both approaches seem to be acceptable to patients with this condition, as shown by low drop-out rates in trials. There was also some suggestion that psychotherapy could reduce the risk of future relapse, although we need more data on long term treatment effects to confirm this," said Ipser.

The Daily Show did a segment on the controversy over a proposed bridge between Detroit and Canada, a story that intersected with my life and previous work with the Michigan Messenger in several ways. First, watch the video and then I'll fill in the details.
Okay, a little background. As the video says, Matty Maroun owns the Ambassador Bridge. And he's been trying to get approval to build a second span of that bridge to carry more traffic. But the government of Canada has offered to pay instead for a publicly-owned bridge, which Maroun wants to stop because, obviously, it would compete with his current bridge and stop his plan to build another one (from which he earns a great deal of money, of course). Gov. Rick Snyder and the legislature, somewhat surprisingly, support the public bridge.
Last year, Maroun launched a campaign to pass a referendum on Nov. 6 to require a public vote before this new public bridge could be built. The message of that campaign was "Let the people decide." And I was actually rather surprised that it failed by a pretty wide margin, 59-41. Somehow in that video the Daily Show says that this vote means Detroiters don't want a public bridge, which makes no sense at all. The referendum was in opposition to the bridge, so the no vote on it was a vote in support of the bridge.
When I was editor of the Michigan Messenger, we never really touched this story except to report very basic facts, like reporting on actions taken by the legislature, because I had a bit of a conflict of interest. One of my oldest friends works for Matty Maroun. In fact, as a vice president of Maroun's company and his head of governmental relations, he ran the campaign for the referendum and against the public bridge. I disagree with him entirely on this issue, but we remain good friends and it put me in a somewhat awkward position. So we stayed away from the story for the most part.The other thing in the video that jumps out is that Malik Shabazz is in it. Shabazz is the leader of the New Black Panther Nation/New Marcus Garvey Movement (not to be confused with the New Black Panther Party, which is run by Malik Zulu Shabazz) in Detroit. Shabazz is a black separatist and during the 2010 campaign for governor, Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero's campaign put out a list of people who had endorsed him and it included Shabazz. We were working on a story about that when all hell broke loose with the Bernero folks over it.
Perhaps I should explain that Virg Bernero, while I like some of his politics, is something of an asshole and he tends to hire assholes as well. His administration spokesperson and his campaign spokesperson, both of whom I had to deal with many times as editor of the Messenger, were two of the most difficult people to handle that I have ever encountered. The campaign spokesperson, Jermaine Dickens, pretty much lost his mind when he found out we were going to do a story about them publicly promoting the endorsement of a black separatist minister.
I spent a good two hours in a very tense conversation with Dickens while we were working on the story, with him literally yelling at me about it (and me yelling back at times). He threw out one bad argument after another, none of which were remotely convincing as to why we shouldn't publish the story, and then he actually gave Shabazz my phone number (without permission) and Shabazz called me. He threw out more bad arguments about it. The fact is that a candidate for governor announcing the endorsement of a black separatist is a legitimate story, just like accepting the support of a white separatist would be a legitimate story. And we ran with it (we also published a statement from Shabazz, word for word, along with it). And after we published the story, and after arguing with me that there's nothing wrong with the endorsement for hours, they suddenly put out a press release saying that the whole thing was a mistake, that Shabazz did not endorse Bernero at all, he wasn't endorsing anyone, and that he only ended up on the list because of a miscommunication. And if you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.

BurgerFi is a relatively new chain of premium burger restaurants in the southern and northeastern U.S. The chain launched in Delray Beach, FL and is rapidly spreading across the country with stores marked as "coming soon" as far west as Arizona and California. We'll be adding BurgerFi to the official roster of restaurants we track on Fast Food Source in the coming weeks, but first let's talk about the food.
BurgerFi's claim to fame is all natural burgers. The name comes from their slogan "Burgerfication of the Nation®" but, deep down, I suspect they went to GoDaddy and searched for a domain name starting with the word "burger" that was available. BurgerFi is a strange name for a restaurant.
The burger, however, is very good. Constructed from the top-down with condiments riding above the meat and cheese, you truly taste the salty, cheesy double patties of the default Burgerfi Cheeseburger in your first bite. Lettuce, tomato and BurgerFi sauce (a standard 1000 Island spread) mate well. The meat-on-the-bottom construction with no spread on the heel bumps the meat:condiment ratio to about 1.25:1 in my estimation. Great if you have a craving for meat first in a burger but don't want an overwhelming gi-hug-o monster burger. This one is just right. And that unique branding of the crown adds a really classy literal signature to their sandwich. Nice.
The BurgerFi side items are generously-sliced fries and mega-sized onion rings. The fries were crispy on the outside and warm and soft on the inside and reminded me of Five Guys. The onion rings are big but thin, meaning a lot of batter to every bite. BurgerFi offers a not-so-secret menu (it's in their printed menu so how secret can it be?) that includes variations on the burger and fries akin to the In-N-Out secret menu.
Overall, I found my visit to BurgerFi (I went to the Lake Mary FL store) pleasant and enjoyable. I think there's room for more gourmet premium burger chains and BurgerFi is a welcome addition. It will be interesting to watch them grow and see how far they can get in size and scope in the coming years.

Police look for 2 men in Glen Burnie robbery
Anne Arundel County Police say Gulf gas station robbed
Police are looking for two armed robbers who struck in Glen Burnie.
Officers were called to the Gulf gas station in the 200 block of Aquahart Road around 11 a.m. Tuesday.
An employee told police two men came into the business and demanded money. One man was armed with a handgun during the incident, police said.
Authorities said the robbers took an undisclosed amount of money and fled the scene on foot towards Crain Court Circle. Police said they were unable to locate the men.
Police said both men were described as black and in their early 20s. One robber is about 6 feet tall, with a thin build, dark complexion and light mustache, wearing a light blue hoodie. The other man is about 5 feet 9 inches, with a medium build and dark complexion, wearing a dark knit cap, a black jacket and a dark mask covering the bottom of his face.

PCR - Professional Computer Repair Powered by Innovative Technologies
PCR is the brand name we (Innovative Technologies) uses to market to consumers. We need to use the 'Powered by Innovative Technologies' so as not to confuse our business customers who have become accustomed to the Innovative Technologies brand name which has a strong presence in our local community (for over 10 years). We specialize in providing a professional alternative to the Big Box retailers and 'Geek Shops' that are in our area. Our motto is 'Why settle for a Geek when you can hire a professional' we want people to feel more like they are dealing with an attorney or CPA than a computer repair shop. Our offices and shop are kept clean and neat (no parts laying around) and our work areas and communications with customers are kept very professional – no 'geek' language, just simple descriptions of the problems and solutions.
Our target audience would be consumers in the area that exists, but we have not presented the 'Innovative Technologies' brand to them because they don't know what we do, that is why we came up with the PCR brand – to make it simple to identify what we do. Our targets are middle to higher income consumers (and possibly business owners) who are willing to pay a little more for a more professional experience.
We want to stay away from 'cartoon' designs and we would like both the insignias to appear on the stationary.
We want the look to be more professional and we want the customer coming away knowing what we do (Computer Repair) and what makes us different (we are the 'Professional' alternative).
we would like to have the PCR logo prominent with the 'Powered By Innovative Technologies' logo smaller. I have provided the Innovative Technologies logo (you can add the 'powered by' as you see fit).

First U2 showThat was my first U2 show. I've just completed my military service a week before the show. Lining outside a few hours I managed to be very at the front. On those years there was no security separation, I still remember the people pushing crushing. I won't forget the Trabant hanging on the sides and the TV monitors blinuing when Edge, Larry and Adam came on stage followed by Bono who moved to the mike and sang that great accapella solo. At that time the fans were mostly local catalan and spanish people, and when Bono addressed some messages to the audiance in english people could barely understand him. He said some words in catalan, and even sang One, with Love is a Temple, l'amor es un temple ! My first concert which i'll never forget !

Staged CI
Staged CI is a practice where a tight loop is used for the typical CI build and one or more additional loops are used to automate a more thorough determination of the code quality. The reason for the multiple loops is that you want to keep the CI loop tight to provide feedback to developers as quickly as possible. In the tight loop, you're willing to sacrifice accuracy of the quality determination for speed. But once you have the quick feedback, you can take a little more time to get more detailed feedback from the additional loops. The end result is that for each project, you have multiple build loops in your system, one loop for each stage. Each stage is progressively more thorough and thus includes longer sets of tests.
The nice thing about this approach is that it makes it easy to deal with limited hardware and test resources. Since each stage runs in a loop, there's never more than a single instance of a stage running at any one time. If that weren't the case and you could have multiple instances of a stage running at any one time, then you'd need to have a scheduler that has knowledge about available hardware resources and manages the allocation of hardware to stage instances. Furthermore, there would need to be a way to balance the pace of stage instance creation to the throughput of the available hardware. Once common mechanism to do this is request coalescing. But the point is that by keeping each stage in a loop, you can avoid a lot of these complexities.
In a Staged CI type of setup, it is typical to have a tight CI loop that takes 15 minutes or less to run, followed by a longer loop that takes an hour or two to run, followed by a nightly build that can take five or more hours to run; see Figure 1. The tight CI loop runs quite often as indicated by the runs CI1, CI2...CI6. The second and fourth runs of the CI loop failed as indicated by the red color. The longer loop that includes long-running tests is depicted by runs L1 and L2. Notice that this longer loop runs concurrently with the tight CI loop. The entire system being used for CI and the other loops may be made up of multiple machines that include a central server and many agent machines. All the heavy work is typically performed on the agent machines so that the system scales horizontally. The nightly build (N1) takes the most amount of time to run.
Staged CI is not really any different from nightly builds, although this depends on the reason for the nightly build and on what happens during the nightly build. If the reason for the nightly build is simply that the team does not see any value from having a tighter feedback loop, then there are some differences. But if the reason for the nightly build is to let the build run over several hours doing extensive testing of the code base to arrive at a very detailed quality determination, then the nightly build becomes an example of Staged CI. Rather than running in a continuous loop, the nightly build runs once during a 24-hour period during the night. Typically, the decision to run at night is related to the usage of resources. Presumably, if the nightly build were to run during the day, it would require access to some resources that are unavailable or being used for other purposes during the day.
Staged CI makes use of multiple build types. Let's take a look at what we mean by build types, then look at why Staged CI uses them.
To understand build types, you need to understand that most of the time when we use the term "build" we're not exact in what we mean. Usually, when we talk about a "build" we are actually talking about something more than just a build. For example, when we talk about a "continuous integration build," we're talking about a process that extracts source code from the source-code manager (SCM), compiles it, packages it, and then runs some tests on the resulting artifacts. In contrast, a nightly build may extract source code from the source-code management system (SCM), compile it, package it, then deploy the artifacts to a QA server and run functional tests. The CI build and the nightly build are just two examples of build types.
The defining feature of a build type is that it is a combination of multiple processes. Of those multiple processes, one is a build process and the remainder is made up of one or more secondary processes. So what do we mean by a build process? A build process takes source code, dependencies, environment settings, and configuration as input, and transforms them into the output. The typical output of the build process is made up of artifacts (typically a compiled binary), log files, and reports. The transformation of the input into the output typically involves compilation and packaging. However, this varies with the technology being used, as native languages include a linking step, whereas scripting languages don't have the compilation step.
Let's take a look at a CI build type and a nightly build type in light of this definition of the build process. Recall that a CI build type extracts source code from the SCM, compiles it, packages it, and then runs some tests on the resulting artifacts. I can now restate that so that the CI build type extracts source code from the SCM, performs a build, then runs some tests on the resulting artifacts. And the nightly build type extracts source code from the SCM, performs a build, then deploys the artifacts to a QA server and runs functional tests on them (Figure 2). Each build type is a combination of build process along with one or more additional (secondary) processes.
One of the defining properties of Staged CI is that each loop (or stage) is a different build type. This means that each stage builds the source code in addition to running one or more processes. This may seem like a natural thing and you may wonder why this is worth pointing out. The reason is that this is very different from the two approaches I address next.

Unless you live in Savannah, Ga., you missed the greatest (or at least the craziest) Super Bowl commercial of the year.
Personal injury lawyer Jamie Casino bought the entirety of a local two-minute commercial break so he could air his incredible "based on a true story" ad. It's part 80's music video, part cop drama, part History Channel reenactment and part WWE promo.
The local FOX affiliate would not reveal how much Casino (great name!) paid for the spot, but did say it was one of the biggest buys in station history.
There's really no point in describing — or spoiling — any more of the ad, but if you want to learn more about Jamie Casino you can read about him here in the Savannah Morning News. Let's just say reviews for his professionalism are mixed.

Matriculation Services for Students
Matriculation Services for Students
Students are more likely to succeed in college when they have an accurate assessment of their skills, an idea of their educational goals, and an understanding of the course selection and registration processes. Matriculation services are designed to inform students about how the "system" works.
All new students are urged to complete the matriculation enrollment process. Students should complete the process as early as possible to receive a priority registration appointment, which will increase chances of enrolling in classes of choice.

No Jobs, Schmidt deleted: Microsoft can't fail, can it?
Windows on ARM to the rescue
Radio Reg From the GUI to the iPad, Microsoft has been in a race to copy and catch up with Apple. On the internet, Microsoft's love of the desktop helped Google surge ahead in search and ads, leaving Microsoft to struggle uphill with Bing.
So, we wonder, is there a silver lining for Microsoft in the interruptions in leadership at the top of two of the company's toughest competitors?
Apple CEO Steve Jobs, who gave us iPlayers, iPhones, and iPads, has taken his second medical leave of absence, and there's no idea when he'll return. And Google CEO Eric Schmidt has been bumped aside after 10 years, by founding CEO Larry Page at a company trying to uncork its youthful mojo.
Is this a prime opportunity for Windows 8 on ARM to give Microsoft's flagship OS a fresh lease of life? Can Microsoft finally offer a mass-market Windows alternative to Apple's iPad?
Reg software editor Gavin Clarke and All-About-Microsoft blogger Mary-Jo Foley reckon things might be looking up for Microsoft - if Steve Ballmer wasn't running even more of the company, following the latest management departures.

The city administration is recommending a $2.5 million federal loan to finance "soft construction costs" for the renovation of the former Telegram & Gazette building on Franklin Street.
The loan guarantee, through a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development program called Section 108, is part of an overall financing package to fund renovation of the building; the total has been pegged at nearly $26 million.
New Garden Park Inc., a nonprofit subsidiary of the Worcester Business Development Corp., purchased the building at 18-20 Franklin St. in 2011 from the New York Times Co., owner of the T&G.
The building is about 135,000 square feet.
In seeking the loan guarantee from the city, New Garden Park must ensure that at least 72 full-time permanent jobs will be created in the building, of which a minimum of 51 percent, or 37 full-time equivalent, permanent jobs must be taken by or made available to low- and moderate-income Worcester residents.
Quinsigamond Community College is going to lease about 73,000 square feet in the building for its Health Care and Workforce Development Center.
Timothy J. McGourthy, the city's chief development officer, said the establishment of the new center will enable QCC to expand its Allied Health Services program and bring about 2,000 students, faculty and staff downtown.
For the building's remaining space, Mr. McGourthy said, New Garden Park is seeking $1 million in Economic Development Administration funds from the U.S. Department of Commerce to help outfit a Technology and Idea Exchange Center that will be about 15,000 square feet.
He said the multi-use complex will include 10,000 square feet for a business incubator and about 5,000 square feet for an auditorium/conference center, which QCC will also be able to use.
He said the business incubator will include flexible space that could be divided to accommodate the needs of tenants entering the incubator program.
Mr. McGourthy said New Garden Park is also marketing 5,000 square feet of space in the building to be used as a restaurant.
The restaurant would serve students and workers during the day and theatergoers and other downtown visitors during the evening.
Total project costs, including both hard and soft costs, are estimated at $25.9 million.
Soft construction costs are those that do not involve labor and materials. They include non-construction costs such as marketing, taxes, finance charges, insurance, interest payments and general administration costs.
"The financing sources are expected to close simultaneously by the end of June," Mr. McGourthy said. "This represents a significant opportunity for the city to use this (Section 108 loan) program to revitalize a blighted, vacant building; bring approximately 2,000 new students, faculty and staff to the downtown; provide much needed business incubator and restaurant space; and create a minimum of 72 permanent, full-time jobs."
The new jobs resulting from the project are expected to be faculty and staff positions with Quinsigamond Community College, administrative and support positions at the Technology and Idea Exchange Center, building security and maintenance positions, and management and service positions at the proposed first-floor restaurant.
Through an inter-creditor agreement between MassDevelopment, Property and Casualty Initiative LLC and the city, the lenders involved with the project will have a second lien position on the real estate located at 18-20 Franklin St and a second position on all equipment owned by New Garden Park.

Three Cheers for Genetic Discrimination!
On facebook, Niles Bliss made some comments about genetics and human behavior that are worth describing. He phrased the same belief in a number of different ways, but this one line sums up a good deal of Niles' philosophy
It is wrong to treat one group differently due to genetic factors.
Of course, this comment is absurd on two different levels.
Whenever people discuss genetics on facebook, it's a good bet that they're discussing race, sex, vaccination, or homosexuality. Another comment by Niles makes it clear this is once again the case [emphasis mine]:
Denying someone the ability to take part in an institution, i.e. marriage, because of a
genetic factor, i.e. enjoying sodomy (or the females only equivalent), is morally wrong. The POA vs. Marriage is not the issue. You can keep it. The issue is being treated as a full-fledged member of the species instead of some sort of aberrant embarrassment. Neither polygamy nor Mormonism/Islamism is determined genetically, so there is not the same moral consideration. I do not believe in cultural relativism, and if your religion must have multiple wives, go to a government that is cool with it.
To break this down, Niles is asserting two common, but mistaken, ideas
1. Some widespread variant human behaviors are "determined genetically"
2. It is ethically wrong to discriminate against genetically-driven traits.
"Determined Genetically" Means That You Can't Avoid The Expression of the Trait Without Killing, Dismembering, or Lobotomizing the Subject
When people say "determined genetically," they mean that 100% of variation of a trait within a population is caused exclusively by genes. There are some diseases that operate like this, but not many. Certainly I am not aware of any complex societal traits that are "determined genetically."
Given the influence that nutrition has in early development, I am not even sure that something as "simple" as earlobe-shape is "determined genetically."
Non-genetic factors in our development include social environment, nutrition, epigenetic load, and pathogenic load.
Discriminating Against People For Genetically-Shaped Traits Is Both Fun, Easy, and Morally Virtuous
Here are a list of some traits with large "genetic components," that is, given similar environments, most of the variation in these traits by age 30 or so will be the result of variation in DNA
1. Political Orientation
2. Religious Ferver
3. General Intelligence
4. Creativity
5. Future Time Orientation
6. Openness to New Experience
7. Conscientiousness
8. Extraversion
9. Agreeableness
10. Neuroticism
11. Some forms of Schizophrenia / Psychopathology
12. Skin Hue
13. Height
14. Build of musculature
15. Fatty tissue distribution
The only way you are having any fun in your life if you are not discriminating on any of these traits is if you consider the lack of control you now have over your life as "fun."
(I am exclude homosexuality here because I am unaware of a study showing that > 50% of variation in expression of that trait by age 30 is predictable based on knowledge of blood relatives. I did not, however, research this before writing this post, as my whole point is that not discriminating based on genetic tendencies is ridiculous)
Discrimination Is Right? Wrong? Something Else?
"Discrimination" means treating different things different, and different people differently, based on features that are meaningful.
Many traits with large "genetic components" are meaningful in our lives. Tendency to crime, beauty, personality, political orientation, skin hue, fervor, etc., all matter to us in meaningful ways. Traits without the same obvious genetic component — which political party you belong to, which Church you worship at, perhaps even your sexual orientation — also matter.
Human beings are not disembodied ghosts. Nor are we soulless corpses. We have bodies. We are made of flesh and blood and spirit, clay and the breathe of life.

The two best teams in Hockey East face off on Sunday for a chance to play for a national championship. On Saturday, UMass-Lowell beat Minnesota State-Mankato, 2-1, and BC throttled Denver, 6-2.
WORCESTER -- After surviving a tight game against Minnesota State-Mankato, UMass-Lowell coach Norm Bazin and the River Hawks were ready to focus on the all-Hockey East regional final against Boston College.
"We do know our opponent. They're a great hockey team," Bazin said after his second-seeded River Hawks beat Minnesota State 2-1 in the Northeast Regional semifinals Saturday night.
"They're regular-season champions for a reason, and it just so happens that we're the playoff champions so it should be a good matchup."
Top-seeded Boston College beat Denver 6-2.
The teams played twice late in the regular season, with BC winning 3-0 and tying 2-2.
The rematch is set for 5 p.m. Sunday (ESPNU) at the DCU Center.
Connor Hellebuyck made 35 saves and Joe Pendenza scored a short-handed goal in the first period in UMass-Lowell's victory .
UMass-Lowell (26-10-4), which reached the Frozen Four last season, ended Minnesota State's 13-game unbeaten streak (12-0-1) and kept the Mavericks (26-14-1) from earning their first NCAA Division I tournament win.
Hellebuyck came within 10.8 seconds of his seventh shutout of the season. After defenseman Zack Kamrass scored an empty-net goal to make it 2-0 with 40.9 seconds left, Zach Stepan scored on a power play.
In the early game, Johnny Gaudreau had his first hat trick for Boston College and added three assists, leading the top-seeded Eagles to past Denver.
Boston College (27-7-4) will face UMass-Lowell on Sunday for a spot in the Frozen Four.
Kevin Hayes had two goals and two assists, and Bill Arnold added a goal and two assists.
Denver finished 20-16-6.

Thailand's government urges caution after army declares martial law
Bangkok: Thailand's caretaker prime minister has urged army commanders to act within the constitution as fears grow their imposition of nation-wide martial law on Tuesday is effectively a coup.
"Any actions need to follow a peaceful path, without violence, discrimination and with equality based on the rule of law," Niwattumrong Boonsongpaisan said in first public comments on the military's intervention.
The military "must proceed under the constitution," he said.
Army commander Prayuth Chan-ocha has denied the military has staged a coup, saying he brought troops on to the streets so that he could act as a mediator in Thailand's sometimes violent political crisis that has dragged on for six months.
"That's why I declared martial law, otherwise, no one would listen," he said, adding the intervention will continue "as long as necessary."
But General Prayuth refused to answer reporters' questions on whether he would answer to the caretaker government which was not told in advance of the martial law declaration.
As Thais wait anxiously for the military's next step, the army imposed strict censorship on journalists, academics and analysts, warning that any "negative" reports or comments will be prosecuted.
"The military's effective seizure of power and imposition of martial law across the country puts the rights of all Thais in jeopardy," said Brad Adams, Asia director at Human Rights Watch.
"Military spokesmen have denied their intervention is a coup, but what else can one call a situation where the army chief has completely seized power from a civilian administration?"
Under the 1914 law the military can stop any activity, outlaw meetings and gatherings, seize any items, occupy any area and detain people without charge for up to seven days.
But despite the sweeping powers Bangkok's shops and places of work have been unaffected as people snap selfies of soldiers on street corners.
Anti-government protesters sang and danced as their leader Suthep Thaugsuban said martial law will not disrupt their fight to depose the government.
"Martial law does not effect our civil uprising….we still retain our right to demonstrate against this tyrannical government," he said.
Pro-government Red Shirt leader Jatuporn Prompan said he was prepared to meet with Mr Suthep in any military-brokered talks but insisted negotiations must be based on democratic principles.
He said a general election remains the only acceptable solution that will end the political conflict and satisfy everyone.
"Suhep is not ready for the poll because he knows his side will somehow lose if it occurs," he said.
Soldiers have set-up check-points around the camps of both pro-government and anti-government groups in Bangkok and asked them not to take part on rallies.
But Mr Suthep, a former deputy prime minister wanted on treason charges but who has not been arrested, said he plans to push ahead with protest marches on Friday and Saturday.
He said he will declare "victory" on Monday.
General Prayuth, a blunt-speaking career soldier who for months expressed reluctance to become involved in the crisis, said he plans to quickly invite all parties in the conflict to resolve their differences.
"If I call all sides, they will come," he said.
Caretaker justice minister Chaikasem Nitisiri said the army chief is duty bound to inform the caretaker government immediately of its actions.
The government is waiting to see what the military will do next, he said.
"It's fine that General Prayuth has declared martial law. But he still works under the command of the government," he said.
Chulalongkorn University political scientist Panitan Wattanayagorn told the Bangkok Post he believed the military's role was still "positive" even if the declaration of martial law is seen as a "quasi-coup."
Legal analyst Verapat Pariyawong said the "moment of unmasking is coming" for the military.
"The military has two obvious choices – either use this opportunity to create a secure and inclusive environment for elections and reform under a civilian government, or to push for a pseudo-legitimate process that replaces the caretaker government with transitional guarantees for the traditional elites," he said.
Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, the focus of anti-government protests, took to Twitter to say he hopes martial law will not violate human rights or undermine the democratic system further.
In broad terms the conflict pits two groups of Thai elites against each other, one backed by Bangkok's middle class and royalist establishment and the other backed by rural masses who support the family of Mr Thaksin who lives in elite to avoid a jail sentence for corruption.
Yingluck Shinawatra, Mr Thaksin's younger sister, was forced to resign as prime minister earlier this month by judges of the country's Constitutional Court.
Her supporters claimed the ruling was orchestrated by powerful figures in Bangkok.

I love holidays! But there is one holiday that can be a little rougher than the rest for us veggies. It's called Thanksgiving. You may have heard of it ... that holiday where everyone sits around a table carving up a turkey. Traditionally we're supposed to take the day to be thankful for what we have and spend the day with the people we love most. Sounds beautiful, right? So what's a vegetarian to do when most tables in America will have a giant stuffed turkey in the middle? Well, you make your host aware and hope for the best in most cases.
A vegetarian since I was 8, I have a lot of experience being uncomfortable at a dinner table full of meat. I know families can't change all their traditions for a lone vegetarian, but here are a few tips to make the day a little less awkward.
1. Be aware. If you are hosting the big holiday, make sure to ask all of your guests if they have any dietary restrictions. This should also include asking about any food allergies.
2. Know that a vegetarian will be feasting at your table for Thanksgiving? They will most likely be more than willing to bring something to share. Don't be afraid to ask! Ask them to bring their favorite vegetarian dish to share and incorporate it into the menu. How cool is that?!
3. Please, please, please have more than one item on the table for them to eat! No vegetarian survives on green beans alone as a meal...
4. Be open to changing some of your recipes. If you use two sticks of butter in your mashed potatoes, maybe you could use a butter substitute this year?
5. Educate yourself. Just because things look vegetarian, sometimes they are not .... those beautiful sweet potatoes with the marshmallows on top? Not veggie. Make sure you turn all of those boxes and cans over and read the ingredients! Some non-veggie ingredients to be on the look out for: gelatin (often found in marshmallows, some gravies and cranberry sauce), Worcestershire sauce, chicken broth and most boxed stuffing. And yes, if something has "just a little bit" in it, it's still not vegetarian!
6. Please don't make the vegetarian feel like an outcast in your home. It's all in the delivery. No need to make a big scene announcing to the entire party what is and is not vegetarian. I was at a dinner party once where the host stood up to make a speech, and she proceeded to announce to the entire party all the trouble she went to in order to make everything meet my dietary restrictions ... I was mortified! Instead, quietly pull your vegetarian guest aside and explain to him or her what is vegetarian on the table.
If you're the visiting vegetarian, thank your hosts for all of their efforts! Hosting a vegetarian can be stressful!
Even if you are not hosting a vegetarian this Thanksgiving, why not have an all-vegetarian meal? Vegetarian is very chic after all!
And if you are interested in adopting a turkey this year for Thanksgiving, you can find more information at Adopt a Turkey, a project of Farm Sanctuary.
Leslie Sarna shares her farm-to-stylish-table recipes daily on her website, lesliesarna.com, in live appearances, on TV and around the Web.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have been pulling off comebacks all season, with seemingly a different player coming through each time.
This time, it was Eric Chavez's turn.
Stuck in a rut since coming off the disabled list, Chavez hit the first pitch he saw in the ninth inning for a run-scoring single, sending the Diamondbacks to another walk-off victory, 4-3 over the San Francisco Giants on Saturday night.
"We've been good at it, it's just not a fun way to play baseball," Chavez said. "We've played so many extra-inning games, you just don't want to play like that. But we are good late. I don't know what that means, but that was a good one."
Arizona has had a knack for walking away with wins this season and pulled off another one against the Giants.
After Brad Ziegler (8-1) worked a perfect ninth, Willie Bloomquist opened the bottom half with a single off Sandy Rosario (3-2) for his third hit and moved up on Adam Eaton's sacrifice bunt. After an intentional walk to Paul Goldschmidt, Chavez lined his single into left-center for his fifth career game-ending hit, sending the Diamondbacks rushing out of their dugout to greet him.
It was Arizona's 12th walk-off victory this season and 29th comeback win.
It may also be the trigger that gets Chavez back in the groove he was in before going on the DL Aug 10 with a strained left knee.
Hitting .299 before the injury, he had gone hitless in 12 at-bats since coming off the DL, including an 0-for-4 start against the Giants.
Chavez ended the streak in dramatic fashion, lining a high fastball to the opposite field.
"He came to me during (batting practice) and said, `My swing stinks right now, but I might come through in a big spot,'" Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said. "He hung tough a got a good pitch."
San Francisco won the series opener 1-0 and rallied from a 3-0 deficit to tie the middle game.
Starter Ryan Vogelsong gave the Giants a chance with six effective innings, but the bullpen, which has been stellar let it slip away.
The run off Rosario was the second allowed by San Francisco's bullpen in 20 2-3 innings that past seven games.
Gregor Blanco hit a solo homer and Hunter Pence had three hits for the Giants.
"A hard fought game, the guys did well coming back," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "They got the leadoff hitter and that puts pressure on you."
Vogelsong had been sharp since coming off the disabled list for a broken right hand, going 3-1 with a 2.55 ERA.
But the right-hander has struggled his second time through the order all season and Saturday was no different.
Vogelsong escaped a bases-loaded jam in the third inning, but Arizona opened the fourth with three straight hits, the last a run-scoring single by Miguel Montero. Gerardo Parra followed with a sacrifice fly and Bloomquist made it 3-0 with a run-scoring single.
Opponents are hitting .349 against Vogelsong the second time through the order after the Diamondbacks went 5 for 6 with a walk and two sacrifices.
"In that one inning, I got a little loose mechanically and that had an effect on how sharp the pitches were," said Vogelsong, who allowed three runs on nine hits. "The rest of the game wasn't too bad."
Arizona starter Trevor Cahill escaped a bases-loaded jam in the first by getting Pablo Sandoval to fly out. Cahill was helped by double plays in the fourth and fifth.
He seemed to tire by the seventh inning, when Blanco hit his third pitch out to right for a homer and Marco Scutaro chased him with a run-scoring triple. Buster Posey tied the game at 3 later in the inning with a run-scoring single off Josh Collmenter.
Cahill yielded three runs and nine hits in 6 1-3 innings.
"I had some guys on base all night and had to make some big pitches, just probably trying to do a little too much there at the end," Cahill said.
NOTES: Vogelsong singled in the fifth for his second hit in 24 at-bats this season. ... Arizona's Martin Prado is hitting .364 since the All-Star break after going 3 for 4. ... Giants CF Angel Pagan saved a run in the seventh with a diving catch on Aaron Hill's liner. ... Arizona LHP Patrick Corbin will pitch the series finale Sunday after allowing eight earned runs in 5 1-3 innings against Philadelphia in his last start. ... RHP Yusmeiro Petit will make his second start for the Giants on Sunday. He earned his first victory in the majors since 2009 by allowing two runs over six innings against Colorado in his first start this season.

New comparison rules a boon for tech users
Choosing and comparing mobile, telephone or broadband contracts will become easier for consumers with the introduction of disclosure rules.
Starting on Friday all telcos must provide free a two-page ''critical information summary'' to shoppers that clearly states the monthly charges and value of any contract.
For mobile contracts, this includes the minimum length and cost of the contract, any early-exit fees, the cost per call and of text, and any services that are not included in the monthly fee, such as video and international calls. Any telco that does not provide a summary could face a $250,000 fine.
This marks the second phase of new consumer-friendly rules introduced by the Australian Communications and Media Authority, following an 18-month investigation into why consumer complaints against telcos were so high.
The authority found consumers were uninformed about contracts or were paying too much because it was too difficult to compare costs.
''We asked [industry] to scrap the use of the word 'cap' as well as stopping inaccurate use of terms such as 'free' and 'unlimited'. The [summary] is the next step in improving the telco customer experience,'' the authority's deputy chairman, Richard Bean, said.
And for the first time consumers would be able to compare call costs between contracts and carriers as the summaries will state the minimum cost of a two-minute call.
A spokeswoman for the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network said the summaries could have the same impact as unit pricing in supermarkets.
''People do not have great awareness of what it costs to make a call or send an SMS because of the way our plans are structured,'' she said.
Consumers can also expect to see new warnings about global roaming fees and information on how to set up usage alerts and links to complaint lines. The next phase, in September, forces large telcos to alert customers when they reach 50 per cent, 80 per cent and 100 per cent of monthly usage limits.

Brittany just graduated in May with her Master's Degree from Boston University School of Public Health in two areas of concentration:
1. Epidemiology
2. Health Policy and Management
She was home (in Fl) with family for the summer while she began the search for work. This past weekend I helped her move in to her apartment in Cambridge, MA. She just landed her first job and I think you all would be most happy to know what it is and where...
Beginning next week (9-17-12), Brittany will be the new Clinical Trials Coordinator at Boston Children's Hospital Renal Transplantation Division working with Harvard clinical trial studies led by Dr. William Harmon, Director of Pediatric Nephrology at BCH and Professor of Pediatrics, Harvard Medical School. His main research interests deal with Pathophysiology and treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in children, Clinical Trials, Novel Immuno-suppression. Tolerance induction.

City rolls up sleeves for major snow-clearing effort
MONTREAL—A forecast for Montreal: the sound of sirens will ring out, warning drivers to remove cars from snowbanks or be towed; small tanks will relentlessly barrel down sidewalks clearing paths for pedestrians and giant snowblowers will transfer fallen snow from streets into long lines of transport trucks.
The snow-clearing effort is underway following Thursday's massive storm and according to city officials it will likely only be complete after about seven days of hauling off the 45 centimeters of white stuff that descended onto the city in a short period Thursday.
Thursday's historic snowstorm wreaked wintry havoc on Montreal's transportation system as all forms of travel were slowed to a crawl or cancelled outright.
The city had expected a storm but nothing like the swirling tempest that forced Environment Canada to drastically revise its forecast over the course of the day.
At least 45 centimetres had fallen on Montreal by day's end and 50 centimetres on its south-shore suburb, eclipsing the previous one-day recorded high of 43 centimetres set in March 1971, according to Environment Canada.
Montreal-area highways were plagued by slow-traffic, pile-ups and sporadic closures caused by slippery surfaces, heavy winds and blowing snow. By midday, the Montreal police appealed to motorists to stay off the roads if possible, in order to allow emergency vehicles easier passage in the difficult conditions.
Montreal city buses were delayed by hours and Laval's bus service was cancelled completely throughout the day, only slowly restored during the evening rush hour. The Laval police resorted to installing chains on cars to race around the suburb.
Drivers also had difficulty climbing hills, where greasy roads led many to simply retreat downhill. A pileup involving 15 cars was reported on Highway 40 in the early afternoon about 50 kilometres west of Trois-Rivieres, but resulted in no serious injuries.
Still, police there were counting their blessings late Thursday.
The same storm had killed at least 16 people in the United States this week. Montreal's previous record blizzard in 1971 killed 17. But there was cause for optimism, as of Thursday evening, that Eastern Canada would be spared a similar human toll this time.
"There were no serious injuries," police Sgt. Martine Asselin said, speaking Thursday evening of the numerous Quebec road accidents. "We're lucky."
Because of the multi-car pileup, a stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway was shut down near Montreal, with provincial police using snowmobiles to access the closed portion of Highway 40.
There were other examples of authorities resorting to rare, even rustic, solutions.
For example, Hydro-Quebec used some old-fashioned travel techniques to reach customers who had lost power in a previous storm, days earlier.
"We're talking snowmobiles and snowshoes," said Hydro-Quebec spokeswoman Sophie Lamoureux.
She said 99 per cent of the customers who had lost power last week had their service restored, with the exceptions being customers in hard-to-reach outlying areas. Meanwhile, new outages were being reported with Thursday's storm.
Highway traffic rolled slowly throughout the day as accidents involving several trucks closed entire sections at a time.
During a press conference on Thursday afternoon, the City of Montreal announced that widespread snow clearing would start on Friday morning. Over 1,000 trucks were dispatches to the city's streets to plow and spray abrasives.
Meteorologist René Héroux pointed out that the nature of the snow is different from that of last week, which was wet and heavy. He noted that this type of storm makes visibility and travel particularly difficult.
Transport Quebec spokesman Bruno Lacombe also urged motorists to exercise caution due to blowing snow and slippery roads and sidewalks.
Another informed observer noted that it's the type of snowfall that's hard to love. "It's the combination of snow and blowing snow that makes this particularly nasty," said meteorologist Arnold Ashton.
Hundreds of flights were cancelled or delayed out of U.S. airports and, on Thursday, numerous departures were also cancelled at Canadian airports.
In Montreal, over a span of several hours Thursday afternoon, a majority of flights were either subjected to lengthy delays or cancelled entirely. A similar pattern was repeated in different Canadian cities as the storm spread east.
Travellers were urged to call ahead to check on their flight status before heading to the airports.
Southern Ontario was spared the worst of the storm.
Toronto received about 10 centimetres of snow into Thursday morning while the Niagara region and Hamilton area received 15 to 20 centimetres.
Still, Ontario Provincial Police said they were busy responding to numerous reports of vehicle accidents from Windsor all the way to the Greater Toronto Area.
They said most calls had been for minor fender-benders and one-vehicle collisions, except for one potentially serious incident in London on Wednesday.
West Region Sgt. Dave Rektor said an officer had his parked police cruiser rear-ended on Highway 401 around 5:30 p.m. when he went to assist another motorist who had driven into a ditch.
The officer was not injured because he was out of the car at the time, but the cruiser was extensively damaged.
In New Brunswick, blowing snow began falling midday Thursday in the southwest and eastern regions, with about 25 centimetres or more expected.
Parts of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island also lay in the storm's path, where winter storm watches or rainfall warnings had already been posted.
Environment Canada had said the Montreal region could receive up to 30 centimetres of snow accompanied by widespread blowing snow -- but that was before the storm hit the area harder than expected.
The tally was upgraded Thursday morning.
The city's previous record storm, in 1971, saw 47 centimetres of snowfall during a period of more than one day. That was aggravated by 110 km-per-hour winds, more than twice as powerful as what the city experienced Thursday.
Environment Canada recalls that the winds in that 1971 storm snapped power lines, causing people to go without electricity for up to 10 days.

Vancouver on Boxing Day 2016. No massages today! https://t.co/9Ssa06Jjpz
"I feel very lucky to have discovered Dave's talents as a massage therapist: After four or five sessions I now have complete mobility in my left shoulder. What's even better, I no longer wake up in the middle of the night in pain, my shoulder hurting because I had moved the wrong way in my sleep. Dave not only provided the massage therapy… but he also gave me a number of exercises which would strengthen the muscles and help ensure that I did not re-injure the shoulder."
. Joe B, Ph.D. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2010)
"No matter where I travel for my career, I always come back to Peter Roach because I have found no other RMT with his effectiveness of treatments, his level and diversity of skills, dedication to his patients and passion for the science behind therapy. He is always enriching his knowledge and passes on that knowledge to his clients through the sessions, his website and newsletters. As a result, I have a stronger understanding about my body and its health & maintenance. Besides feeling absolute relief from muscle tensions, I always leave his office feeling inspired."
Jessica C., client since 2006
"While rehearsing a professional play, I developed a very painful neck injury. The director and cast members recommended Dave Campbell. After his skilled treatment I was able to return to work without prescription drugs. A physician later confirmed certified massage therapy was the best treatment and my stage union insurance reimbursed costs. I'm nearing 70 and am happy to vouch for Renewed Balance services."
Jason L. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2011)
"If you want caring, experience and healing plus good humour – Go to this clinic ! They are the best."
Reviewed by Helen O. via Yelp
Yanni Thanasoulis – Fantastic masseuse. I have seen Cassandra for a few different issues and she is very good at explains what is going on and why Im feeling a certain way so I can get a great understanding of what is going on. Highly recommended!
"He is an expert at understanding and fine-tuning the instrument that is a performer's body. You can literally trust that you'll be in good hands with Dave Campbell!"
Lisa B. – New Westminster BC (Client since 2011)
"I have been seeing Peter Roach regularly for just over 25 years. Peter has helped me to relieve areas of stress and tension, and maintain a conscious level of awareness of my body. Peter is knowledgeable in many areas of massage therapy, especially relating to physical fitness, as my many questions are always thoroughly and more than satisfactorily answered."
Reviewed by Sharon H. via Yelp
Paul Romani – I've been a client of Cassandra for well over a year now, and it is understandable why Cassandra's client base has grown so quickly! Although this is massage therapy, Cassandra creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere with background music. She works with her customer's needs and has a lot of empathy. I never get tired of hearing about her dog, Pancakes 🙂 Part of her work involves explaining what she's doing and why (if asked), which demonstrates her expertise. In fact, I've noticed over the past year how much her technical range has expanded. Most importantly, I can state that the lower back pain that I had for almost 20 years has now gone, and I think that is largely because of Cassandra's work. Overall, I certainly recommend Cassandra as a very effective RMT!
"Dave Campbell is simply the best when it comes to good RMT work! As a repeat customer I am very familiar with the long-term benefits Dave's skillful hands are bringing to my body and general well-being. Thanks Dave!"
Dean Paul G. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2011)
"I have been going to Peter for 25 years and he is FANTASTIC! Even though I've moved to Burnaby I would never change massage therapists. I have chronic back & neck problems from car accidents & I rely on Peter's therapy & exercize advise to work out the knots & spasms. He's also a great guy & handsome too!"
Lisa V. via Yelp.ca
Andre Coudreau – I've been seeing Cassandra for over 2 years now and she's excellent. I've seen many different RMTs in the past but I seem to get better results with her. She's very friendly and always knows what areas are giving me issues. I've seen her for neck and shoulder issues, tension headaches, knee pain, hip pain, lower back pain and probably a few more issues that I've forgotten about. I know for sure that her treatments accelerate my healing process and allow me to continue living my physically active lifestyle 🙂 if I could afford it I would hire her full time haha. Thanks Cassandra!
"I do lots of lifting and carrying in my job and can always trust Dave to get rid of all the knots and kinks that crop up. He always finds the root of whatever particular problem I have and makes it disappear. I travel a lot in my job and have over the years visited other massage therapists, none of whom can match Dave. Whenever I'm home, I make sure to visit him. He really is the best."
Heather M. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2001)
"I have been going to Bayswater for more than 10 years. i was experiencing chronic back pain and had tried a number of therapies. One of Peter's clients recommended Bayswater. Peter was able to identify the problem and has treated it successfully. He is a great massage therapist and has helped me design a program of strength training which is fun and helps me maintain my active lifestyle. Peter is very professional and works hard to incorporate the latest health information and technology. I would highly recommend Peter and Bayswater Neuromuscular."
Joanne P. via Yelp.ca
Kiran Schaffer – Cassandra is great! I have been getting treatments for plantar fasciitis and her treatments have been so helpful in relieving the discomfort. She is very caring and personable and gave some very helpful home strategies to help with the pain that were easy to integrate into my daily life.
"I've run two marathons in the past few years, and couldn't have done it without Dave! The pressure it puts on your body is extreme…and I am injury free. I believe it's due to his extensive knowledge and years of experience. Any question about how your body connects, he can answer and explain in an accessible way. This translates into an excellent massage, with lasting results!!! If you're looking for a wise use of your budget, Renewed Balance is the best in the city. Recommend without a doubt!!!"
Natasha W. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2008)
"I see Peter at Bayswater. I have experienced may deep tissue massages over the years and must say Peter is the most knowledgeable massage therapist I have met to date. He is excellent in identifying problem areas and looks for solutions. You can tell he enjoys his work and is always expanding his knowledge. The office and massage rooms are clean and comfortable and I have no problem recommending them."
Ian B. via Yelp.ca
Joseph Leung – Cassandra is a great RMT! She listens to your concerns and is thorough in her technique. She looks for different ways to relieve muscle tension and reduce symptoms. She also gives some stretches and exercises that can be done at home to maintain and prolong wellness. I would highly recommend her!
"I see Christopher Quirk at Bayswater. I have recommended many others and we all feel he is tops. Knowledgeable and kind with a goofy sense of humor, Chris is my go-to guy for chronic muscle pain or deep tension release."
Danielle M. via Yelp.ca
"I've been seeing Dave for years, and wouldn't think about seeing anyone else. His experience and knowledge are second to none, and he's also a heck of a nice guy! As a weekend warrior, stressed out computer operator, and aging boomer, I have received effective relief for neck, lower back, hip and leg pain/lack of mobility."
Deb W. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2005)
"I have had great massage from Peter Roach for a very long time. I have always found him very knowledgeable, knows great point pressures and deep tissue work to release any tension. Peter is respectful, caring and has a great laugh. The office is nice and comfortable but could have more interesting magazines in the waiting area. I would like to see more aromatherapy in his oils.
I trust him."
M Widerszpil – Cassandra has such incredible knowledge of the body and is a truly gifted healer. I am forever in debt to her for alleviating my pain and stress.
"Dave Campbell has been a godsend in alleviating lower back muscle aches and tightness in my hips over the past five years -very knowledgeable in resolving muscle/fascia problems. After each session, I walk out of his RMT clinic as a new man! "
Cole W. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2005)
"Thank you Dave Campbell RMT for the great massages since 2001. If you want pain relief of muscles, tissues and body this is who to come to."
Grace K. Burnaby BC (Client since 2001)
"Peter Roach has consistently given me great massages; the best I have ever experienced. In addition he has always been available outside normal hours to help with disabling injuries. Only the lucky ones get an appointment with this guy!"
Tom, Retired
Former business owner
André the Free – Cassandra is very professional, and great at what she does. After about a month of treatment from her, I was able to resume exercising as I did before. Only RMT you'll ever need, and a great recommendation to anyone!
"We (your patients) are very fortunate that you take your professional development so seriously. Thanks, Peter, for keeping us going!"

Johnson City, Tenn. -- East Tennessee State held off a late Wofford rally to sweep a Southern Conference doubleheader 9-7 this afternoon at Duncan Park. ETSU took a 6-3 decision in the opening game. The win improves the Bucs to 17-25, 13-13 in the conference while Wofford falls to 13-34, 4-21.
Trailing 9-2 entering its final at bat, Wofford put together five runs on six hits and two Buc errors to pull within 9-7. ETSU reliever Jackson Simerly induced Danny Slade to ground to second with runners on second and third to end the game.
A six-run ETSU sixth broke open a tight 2-0 game. A grand slam by Buc shortstop Jeremy Terry highlighted the inning. With the home run, Terry now has a 14-game hitting streak.
Matt Baber (8-6) worked 8.2 innings to pick up the win. He allowed seven runs, four earned on 12 hits while striking out six and walking two. Chad Boruff had three hits and two RBI for the Bucs, including a run-scoring double in the fourth inning for ETSU's first run of the game.
A three-run homer by Boruff in the first inning gave ETSU a quick 3-0 lead in the opening game. He later added a run-scoring double in the fifth for this fourth RBI of the contest.
With the Bucs leading 4-2 in the top of the eighth inning, Nathan Copeland broke the game open with a two-run home to give ETSU a 6-2 lead. Copeland, Boruff, Danny Pugh, and Ed Sparks each had two hits for the Bucs while Reid Casey went eight solid innings in improving his record to 5-6.

Thank you for your newsletter. I so much enjoy the New Age theme. The reason that I have subscribed to your newsletter recently is that I have heard through the Metaphyscial grapevine that you are soon to have an interview with my favorite Author, VICKIE L. HIGH, who wrote one of the best books I ever Read, HEART2HEART CONNECTIONS. Will the time be featured in your newsletter, if not, could you please let me know when it is so I can be sure to tune in...I missed her on Oprah and I want to be sure that I don't miss this one too. Sincerely Yours, ~ Leila Bronson

I still don't know how to make wine. One of my goals for this year was to begin making our own, but it never happened.
I have friends who are skilled winemakers, and they offered to help. We had a bumper crop of watermelons (the fruit I intended to use), so there was no shortage of material. I just never got around to it. I certainly didn't spend any of the summer lounging around, but I'm a little frustrated that I didn't prioritize better.
Wine is one of the few grocery items we're still having to purchase.
So again I resolve that this is the last year we will buy our wine from a store.
