The winter quarter closed with First Year Architecture and Architectural Engineering students completing the team-based paraSITE project .
The project challenges students to create full-scale designs in assigned locations in Building 05, using their ability to discern flows, spaces, materiality, and campus community uses, and celebrating the subtlety of shadows, wind, and time, as well as marking place within the scales of the structure, or providing place for pause or repose and awareness of one's surroundings.
The project aims to teach First Year students the value of teamwork, achieving more than any single student could as an individual. It also tasks them with managing talent and time within a complex assignment.
To see images of the projects go to PARAsite. For a video of the construction of one of the projects go to PARAsite video.

For the 20th straight year, Cal Poly has been rated the best public-master's university in the West in U.S. News & World Report's 2013 America's Best Colleges guidebook. Cal Poly ranked sixth in the magazine's overall list of the West's best universities, including both public and private institutions that provide "a full range of undergraduate and master's-level programs but few, if any, doctoral programs."
U.S. News ranks colleges that grant doctoral degrees, such as those in the University of California system, in a separate category. "Being named Best in the West for 20 straight years is a terrific acknowledgment of Cal Poly's sustained excellence over a long period of time," said Cal Poly President Jeffrey D. Armstrong. "The credit belongs to our faculty and staff for their unwavering dedication and commitment to our students' success, and it underscores the power of our Learn by Doing philosophy."

"Despite amenities like a farmers' market and historic buildings, Oakland's old business district was lacking in vibrant street life. Architect and local business owner Alfonso Dominguez and artist Sarah Filley co-founded nonprofit popuphood as a small-business incubator to revitalize the neighborhood and spark long-term economic development. Working with a landlord who agreed to provide space in vacant storefronts, Filley and Dominguez recruited five complementary businesses with the promise of six months of free rent and marketing support. The project launched before last Christmas and has so far been a success, generating buzz as a new destination unique for its hyper- local approach to retail. Three of the original retailers have signed long-term leases, and the neighborhood seems on the rise." (SpontaneousInterventions.org)

Nokia Lumia 800 teardown
Here's what the innards of the Nokia Lumia 800 looks like as done by TechRepublic. They have a video embedded but I don't know how to get the embed code (and can't be bothered to look at the page source).
I'm not sure what they're reiterating about the "single piece metal casing". What metal casing? I'm not sure there's any point comparing battery capacities of phones of different screen sizes. Capacity doesn't mean much. e.g. E71 on 1500mAh can last pretty much forever.
They note the hardware as being:
- 1.4 GHz single-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 (MSM8255T) processor (with Adreno 205 GPU)
- Elpida B4064B2PD-6D-F 2Gb LP DDR2 DRAM (512 MB)
- 16GB Hynix NAND flash chip (H26M52002CKR)
- 3.7″ AMOLED display (800 x 480)
- 8 MP rear-facing camera
- 3.8V, 1,450 mAh Li-Ion battery
- Atmel mXT224 touchscreen controller (MXT-N0K1 CCU-1R6 1G4456B)
- Broadcom BCM4329 Low-Power 802.11n with Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR and FM (BCM4329EKUBG)
- Qualcomm PM8058 power management IC
- Qualcomm QTR8200 RF Transceiver
- TriQuint TQM7M5013 Quad-Band GSM / GPRS / EDGE-Linear Power Amplifier Module
- AAC Technologies ELV1411A X Direction Linear Vibrator (vibrator motor)

so thats how the annoying battery looks, get that bugging piece of shit out of my phone Nokia kidding
"I'm not sure there's any point comparing battery capacities of phones of different screen sizes."
What do you mean by this? When you put in larger battery, you have to put also larger screen, but better batteries have more capacity without being larger. So it's good to know the actual capacity.
What Jay means is that the longevity of use for your smartphone may vary regardless of your battery capacity and it is highly dependent on the OS that your device runs/optimizations. Symbian is very battery efficient and can last longer with the same or less mAH battery in most cases, thus making battery comparisons not as cut and dry and a victory by numbers alone.
Screen size, processor OS and other hardware components in addition to cellular /wi-fi power draw affect the battery longevity.
With that in mind, bigger batter isn't always better and a smaller battery isn't always worse.
My N8 will outlast my 710 any day. I'm highly frustrated by the T-Mobile 710s battery life. I used my N8 to record audio for hours and about 20 minutes of HD video and it was still near a full charge! Yet when I unplug my 710 after charging all night, do some browsing via cellular connection, I have to charge it again before leaving home after his 15 minutes of web browsing because it no longer displays a full battery status.
Maybe I have a faulty battery….maybe T-Mobile needs to release the firmware updates that MS and Nokia have released. Anyway…..I get shorter battery life with a bigger battery.
I hope I helped and didn't mix up what Jay was trying to say.
From what I understand it is dependant on OS and hardware components.
Nokia have never used the OS before, it is totally new to them, they are starting from zero.
Nokia haven't used Qualcomm chips for a long time/ever?
Symbian was designed for low power use and then power optimised continuously for the last 10 years. The hardware components and Symbian were power optimised together.
Definately no NFC chip hidden in there for future use then!
Funny how he pulled stuff out of his arse, such as the body being metal and hence the phone being heavier than the Galaxy Nexus, which is also false.
Nothing from Samsung. Good!

Western Quake³ is intended to be a realistic simulation of the "Old West's" great atmosphere. It is being developed - as you can see in the name - on id Software's Quake³ Arena Engine.
This Total Conversion will include completely new weapons created with historically correct information about damage, rate of fire, reload time etc. It will also include new gametypes and maps inspired mostly from movies. And to increase the feeling of "Gunslingers Atmosphere" we will also create music tracks and sounds adapted to the simulated times.

Jun 17, 2012; Washington, DC, USA; New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano (24) is congratulated by first baseman Mark Teixeira (25) after hitting a solo home run during the seventh inning at Nationals Park. The Yankees won 4 - 1. Mandatory Credit: Brad Mills-US PRESSWIRE
The Washington Nationals could not come close to touching one of baseball's hottest teams, as the New York Yankees took down the Nats to complete a three-game sweep 4-1 Sunday afternoon at Nationals Park.
Edwin Jackson gave the Nats the solid start they needed with six innings allowing seven hits three walks and two runs while striking out one. The only problem was that Yankees starter Ivan Nova was better, going 7.2 innings allowing one run on seven hits and just one walk while striking out four.
The Yanks opened scoring in the top of the first when Mark Texiera hit a sac fly to make the score 1-0. The Nats countered with their only run in the game in the bottom of the second when Adam LaRoche hit his 12th home run of the year.
New York took control of the game in the middle innings, with Curtis Granderson and Robinson Cano hitting solo home runs in the fifth and seventh innings respectively. Later in the seventh, the Yanks would get their fourth run when Andruw Jones drew a bases-loaded walk.

Loomis was suspended for the first eightIn comp games of the regular season for his involvement and cover-up of the Saints bounty program.
Players reportedly said they felt a sense of comfort having Loomis back at the facility.
The Saints are now missing only head coach Sean Payton. While Payton is irreplaceable -- having Joe Vitt and Mickey Loomis back does create a sense of normalcy for the organization.

Building a steady movie career over the last decade, Dwayne Johnson must be one of the most successful wrestlers-turned-actors ever. Where Roddy Piper and Hulk Hogan have failed, he has succeeded. It helps he has slowly shifted away from the 'hulking villain' of earlier roles into more substantial ones. His films still aren't high art but they have shown his determination to broaden his horizons. His latest aids in extending his shelf-life as a reliable leading man who has shown more talent than the wrestling ring allowed.
When his son is sent to jail after a drug raid, John (Dwayne Johnson) attempts to set him free. Contacted by Cooper (Barry Pepper), an agent leading an anti-drug taskforce, John is given a proposition. He has to immerse himself in the dangerous world of drug baron Carlos (Benjamin Bratt). Tasked with setting him up in a sting operation, John's eagerness to see his son safe rises above the dangers he faces.
More drama than action movie 'Snitch' is a reasonably solid effort. Johnson equips himself well as a father willing to do anything for his family. He effectively conveys his character's frustrations with the political red-tape and laws concerning drug traffickers. Ric Roman Waugh's direction maintains a brisk pace although often at the expense of other characters. The almost sole concentration on the central character somewhat devalues the story's impact with John's family-life only minimally explored.
'Snitch' maintains a gritty atmosphere due to some striking cinematography. The unpleasant world in which John reluctantly involves himself is evoked with harsh tones and grimy tension. The standard of the mood isn't quite matched by a script lacking the substance the material demands. The abrupt conclusion doesn't help although the general intent is there. It's a case of the ideas being sound but the execution faltering even if it maintains interest overall.
Dwayne Johnson should be pleased with his efforts with 'Snitch'. Although not perfect it gives him a chance to do something different and is a more thoughtful project than the block-busters on which he has made his name.

The Call
Emergency help-line operators sometimes need nerves of steel. Dealing with dangerous situations on a daily basis, their gift for accurate instant information is vital. No occurrence is the same which is something 'The Call' explores. Although still primarily a typical pop-corn thriller, it has substance. It also gives Halle Berry one of her best roles in a long time, with her luck in choosing dodgy roles hopefully changing.
Working as a 911 emergency operator, Jordan Turner (Halle Berry) is prepared for any event. When receiving a call from a girl being attacked by a serial killer, Jordan's skills are sorely tested. After a devastating outcome, her worst fears are realised when the killer strikes again. This time another girl, Casey (Abigail Breslin) pleads for help. Determined not to fail again, Jordan does her duty in attempting to save the life of someone in the face of deadly adversity.
Despite hanging its story on an increasingly absurd 'psycho on the loose' motif, 'The Call' has interesting moments. Most of them occur between Jordan and Casey who are forced to develop a close relationship. Helping each other overcome horrors from the past and present, both must craft a connection in order to escape their current dilemma. The two leads' performances create believability even as events spiral out of control.
As the script moves away from Jordan's determined heroine and onto the machinations of the killer, things go awry. The over-acting by Michael Eklund as the villain negates the authenticity the film initially achieves. The way his character eludes the police strains credibility to breaking point. These elements turn what could have been an arresting movie into a run of the mill yarn. By the conclusion it's on auto-pilot with the various revelations laughable.
Although admirably revealing some aspects of what they go through, 'The Call' doesn't quite give the respect help-line operators deserve. As mindless entertainment it works although its early promise hangs up as fast as a bad phone call.

Considered unusual even within South Carolina, Orangeburg is hard to figure out. In this Anglophilic state, it's named for a Dutchman, William Prince of Orange, and was originally settled by Swiss and German immigrants. The people are friendly, though this remains one of the most racially segregated towns in America.
The downtown area around Russell Street has great potential and has been improved, but just can't seem to get anything going. They have a couple of great barbecue places, but almost no other noteworthy restaurants. Topping it off, the locals even have their own accent, a bit faster than the usual drawl you get in these parts.
Probably the most well-known Orangeburg native is Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post columnist and TV analyst Eugene Robinson.

Mumbai is a city that is known to never stop for anyone or anything. The economic capital of India, Mumbai is famous for its seashore, incredible lifestyle, and festivities. The city has a tremendous amount of dynamic energy, which makes people fall in love with it. There's a saying that "if you work hard in Mumbai, this city will always pay you back for your work." That's why it is home to so many of India's creative people, whether they are in film, theater, television, or advertising. It has all the noise, music, and loudness of a big city, but it is also filled with restless souls searching for peace.
With enthusiasm, energy, and optimism, the young people in Mumbai who are promoting Maharaji's message of peace make an impact wherever they go. A group of them initiated a peace parade to bring this message to the masses, especially to young adults. They did this apart from their school, college, or work and have a very unusual way of attracting people, especially a younger audience. They hold "canopy events" in malls, beaches, gardens, fairs, and railway stations. More than 260 people attended one of the events in the Andheri area of west Mumbai, which was held in the Infinity Mall. The young volunteers first attracted the audience through music and games. Then they showed a 3-min. presentation of Maharaji's message to those who were interested. More than 35 people attended and expressed an interest in listening more about the message of hope and peace.
G.M. of Uniliver India Limited, one of the biggest retail companies in India, said of their efforts, "It's such a great feeling to see young people spreading such a noble message. And I am very impressed with Mr. Prem Rawat's message."
After receiving positive feedback on their very first event, these young people got inspired to do more, and they held their next event on a beach. They wanted to do these events in the most unexpected places so that it would be fun for all those listening to the presentations and a challenge for them, too.
So, like a great picnic spot, they set up events regularly on beaches, and they made sure to get the necessary permit from the police and certificate from the Municipal Officer to conduct them. Using four portable DVD players, two laptops, and a TV, these events were held, with more than 300 people attending, many of whom expressed an interest in listening more to the message. One of them, Peter Parker, who is studying for his Ph.D., said, "I have never heard or read anything as incredible as this simple yet profound message."
Their next destination was a railway station, as most of the Mumbai population travel by rail. As at the beach event, a canopy was set up at Vashi Railway Station in the Navi area, and the event was called "Celebrate Your Life." They got all the necessary permissions to do the event and had laptops, DVD players, and leaflets in both Hindi and English. Maharaji's message was shown on a projector to a crowd that gathered there, and it was a great success. Software engineer Datta Patil commented: "I was waiting for my train to arrive. I was tense and impatient, and I heard a boy younger than me telling a 50-year-old person about the possibility of finding inner peace and contentment. I was attracted to the message, and that made me want to listen to Maharaji. I feel blessed."
Their next destination was a garden, where people come for morning and evening walks or just to sit peacefully. They organized three garden events in different locations in Mumbai. They showed a video of Maharaji and then distributed leaflets and books with his message to those who were interested. About 200 people heard Maharaji's message through these garden events, out of whom 14 are now in the process of learning more about how to experience peace within.
When these young people sit with their friends, they talk freely about Maharaji's message of peace, feeling this is the best kind of discussion to have. Mamta Joshi, one of the team members, says simply, "When older people see us talking about this message, they are inspired and remark, 'At such a tender age, you know what peace is.' And when young people see us spreading this message, they come to see what is so unique about it that even young people enjoy it."
So, it's the perception they are changing. As Maharaji says, "Peace is something that everyone needs. Age has nothing to do with contentment because it's a journey within."

Predicting the outcome of elections is big business. In the early days it was left to political professionals who would rely on their gut instincts to "feel" how the campaign was developing. This is not dissimilar to Wall Streeters who can "read the tape" to sense which way particular stocks will move. In the mid-20th century scientific polling developed, but with occasional spectacular failures. The Literary Digest poll in 1936 predicted an Alf Landon victory over FDR. Landon carried only Maine and Vermont. Everybody was wrong about the outcome of the 1948 election, epitomized by the picture of a triumphant Harry Truman holding up a copy of the Chicago Daily Tribune with its premature headline DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN.
In recent years, Intrade has allowed people to bet real money on the outcomes of elections, in effect measuring the gut instincts of the many. It currently has Obama's chances at 57.3 percent and Mitt Romney at 42.3 percent.
And, of course, political science professors try as well to read the tea leaves. Larry Sabato of the University of Virginia is probably seen more often on television than other professor. He currently has the race at 237 electoral votes safe, likely, or leaning to Obama, 206 to Romney, with 95 in the tossup category.
Two professors at the University of Colorado, Kenneth Bickers and Michael Berry, have developed a prediction model based not on polling or gut instincts, but on economic factors in each of the fifty states and the District of Columbia:

Dear Democrats & Republicans,
The level of animosity each has for the other has reached the point beyond being absurd.
The same can be said for most of the world's religions.
Everyone just needs to learn to get along. Treat each over as equals. Find some common ground. Acknowledge and respect each other's opinions and accomplishments. Only then can true progress be made toward advancing all of humanity.

RE: MilkDairy farmers have struggled for years. Any increase in the price they receive usually comes at the end of a period of rising costs when they have had difficulty staying in business. The resurgence in folk music over the last few years has meant a return to popularity of the protest song. Maggie Duffy, one of our local singer/songwriters wrote 'Cheap Daily Life' over a year ago after she'd heard a very moving interview on Radio Devon with a tearful dairy farmer.

Is it any surprise that Broadband is not really taking off in this country? Fact of the matter is deep rooted corruption. Here is a break up analysis of how things are rotten in Karnataka (as an example) and assuming that similar "rates" apply at central government. There is no doubt that being in politics is pure money making enterprise. Here are the low down statistics.
While the Tata-Corus deal was over Rs 36,000 crore, they could have acquired the Government of Karnataka for just Rs 2,825 crore by buying 113 MLAs. Another Rs 1,000 crore might have had to be doled out to mid-term dissidents and other contingency expenses. For such investment, the returns from bribes are fabulous. Even Warren Buffet cannot match it.
This is mere change for a major group like Tata's. Imagine the clout that these companies have at the national level, their ability to influence major policy decisions and ride roughshod over the customer's interests.
For example, here is a news from the past when Tatas took over VSNL in 2002 during the time when BJP was in power and it was on a disinvestment spree.
The Tatas today took charge of the Videsh Sanchar Nigam Limited (VSNL) after signing shareholders' agreement with the Union Government for acquisition of 25 per cent stake in the telecom major for Rs. 1,439 crores.
Adjusting for inflation, it would be much more than the figures suggest but I wonder how much "speed money" was given and whether it was the right thing to do. It had acquired it's long distance telephony which at that time was very lucrative.
The total valuation of Tata Indicom as a brand is expected to be in "billions". This is not counting it's lucrative tower business.
The company's GSM services were launched after NTT DoCoMo picked up 26% in the company. The Japanese telecom major, which prides itself in its third generation (3G) offerings, spent $2.7 billion on its first investment in Tata Teleservices, valuing it at just under $11 billion.
One could argue against such fancy valuations but there is no "benchmark" for such a valuation. Rajesh Jain has interesting take on corruption (1,2,3,4,5).
It's not that the powers that be are not aware of the prevailing situation on ground. It's easier to keep it this way because a populace kept "busy with basic issues of life like a proper dwelling, electricity, food and infrastructure" would hardly have any time to think about issues like 'broadband'. Ask the person on street and the familiar reaction would perhaps be,"WTF".
Hence many times I think that our pretensions about "knowledge based economy" may all be crap and flotsam. The basic issues lie much deeper and as Atanu Dey rightly points out that the basic impediment to our progress may well be the Indian Government itself. It doesn't matter to anyone though because as we fucking multiply to billion plus, there is always someone laughing behind our backs making a killing of millions.
To round it up, it is pure money power that allows these companies to roughshod it over us. They know that regulations cannot be enforced, the justice system inordinately slow and right to information act does not apply to private organizations (though I can argue against it). At the same time, not being transparent is the biggest asset available to them.

The Dallas Stars and the Carolina Hurricanes released their new jerseys for the 2013-14 NHL season the other day! Since I'm kind of famous for 8-Bitting NHL Jerseys, it was pretty academic. The new jerseys are kind of simple and plain in their design, which made them REALLY easy to draw.
Today, it was announced that Patrick Roy, the greatest goaltender EVER, has been named the new coach of the Colorado Avalanche, which is pretty cool. Here is 8-Bit Patrick Roy in Aves gear!
I'm quite pleased with the goalie model I've drawn, so I've decided to draw more goalies. Here's 8-Bit Ron Hextall, my all-time favourite Flyer!
A companion piece to my world-famous 8-Bit NHL Jerseys, I give you the 8-Bit ROAD Jerseys of the NHL! ALL OF THEM!

Vote Tuesday, Nov. 6Despite high unemployment (14.4 percent), greater income disparity than at the time of the Great Depression and a major loss of homes because of mortgage foreclosures, African Americans remain confident in their economic prospects. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll of a year ago found that 49 percent of blacks thought the country is headed in the right direction compared to only 19 percent of whites. A reported 86 percent of blacks approved of the president's handling of the economy. More » |

The Seeker (Garden of Heaven Trilogy), by Malcolm R. Campbell, Vanilla Heart Publishing (April 2013), 224 pages, e-book and trade paperback, contemporary fantasy.
Do the rules of life allow us to save ourselves and our loved ones by fighting or running, but not with precognition and magic? Some people believe magic is a way of "getting away with something" that the Universe doesn't intend for us to avoid, much less survive.
In my new contemporary fantasy, The Seeker, released by Vanilla Heart Publishing this month, lovers David Ward and Anne Hill learn there are consequences to confronting predators and gods.
David knows magic. He learns it from his grandmother, Raven, Eagle and Black Horse. He finds visions in the mountains and wants to expand upon them by climbing the highest peaks on the planet. Yet, as his utilitarian grandfather Jayee sees it, such things are best left alone because the world does not believe in magic and hates people who do.
David and Anne meet when they're hired as summer workers at a Glacier National Park resort hotel. David grows up on a sheep ranch and loves the Rocky Mountains. Anne lives with her aunt in Florida and has become attuned to the Gulf Coast barrier islands and swamps. Like many others who find each other at a beautiful or exotic location, they believe their intense summer romance will last forever.
From the Publisher:
David Ward develops an enduring love of mountains and the magic of the high country secrets he learns from his medicine woman grandmother growing up on a Montana ranch. A vision quest at the summit of a sacred mountain opens his eyes to his future while blinding him to the details.
David meets Anne Hill, another seasonal employee at a mountain hotel during the summer of Glacier National Park's worst flood. Out of the ravages of water, they spend an idyllic summer in the beautiful Garden of Heaven. Together in their hearts, each returns to their college lives.
When Anne is confronted by a stalker on a dark street in her Florida college town, the magic David uses in an attempt to save her changes her, and leads them both into the dark territory of misunderstandings and the blood of Tate's Hell Swamp.
Excerpt from the Novel:
"After they finished the dinner they prepared together, after the meadowlarks' piccolo-sharp whistles enfolded into the raspy songs of wind and creek, after darkness flowed up out of the cottonwoods, after they watched the stars materialize in the sky above the circle of box elders, after Anne's Christian Brothers Napa Rose wine connected them to the light of the waxing crescent moon, they fetched an old horse blanket and a kerosene lantern and walked arm in arm up the bright path to the chokecherry tree. David hung the lantern on a limb below the ripe fruit while Anne flung out the blanket. The pale yellow light spun a cocoon within the night, extending outward just shy of the altar upon which the sweet lamb was slaughtered in the eagle's dawn raid eleven years ago.
"Anne stepped into the center of the blanket and lifted her arms above her head in a long, slow, cat-like stretch. Her figure was fine and young, and when her hair caught the light, the world stopped, cloaking the rising whispers of his blood within an immense silence, suspended and potent. She looked at him over her shoulder, eyes sweeping his body. Then they looked past each other and waited for signs."
The Trilogy
The Seeker is the first novel in the Garden of Heaven Trilogy. Book two, The Sailor will be released this summer. Book three, The Betrayed is due out this fall. The Seeker is available on Amazon in trade paperback and on Kindle. The e-book edition is available on Smashwords and on OmniLit. The novel will also be available on Nook in the near future.
While the novels in this trilogy are definitely fiction, they were inspired by my experiences growing up along the Florida Gulf Coast and working as a bellman at a Glacier National Park hotel during the Montana flood of 1964. David's navy experiences in The Sailor, grew out of my tour of duty aboard an aircraft carrier, and his work as a college teacher in The Betrayed, is a highly "ramped-up" version of my years as a journalism instructor.
I hope you enjoy the series.

Oil giant Shell faced calls from Congress today for an official inquiry into the events surrounding the grounding of a drilling vessel in Alaska.
The 45-member US House Sustainable Energy and Environmental Coalition demanded that the coast guard and Interior Department launch a probe over the New Year's Eve grounding of the Kulluk oil rig.
It remains stricken in the treacherous seas and is said to be carrying 136,000 gallons of diesel fuel and about 10,000 gallons of lubricants and other oils.
Salvage crews who finally managed to board the rig on Thursday said that it remained upright and there was no sign yet of a fuel leak, according to Shell incident commander Sean Churchfield.
But the coalition said: "This is the latest in a series of alarming blunders, including the near-grounding of another of Shell's Arctic drilling rigs, the 47-year-old Noble Discoverer, in Dutch Harbour and the failure of its blowout containment dome, the Arctic Challenger, in lake-like conditions."
It demanded a thorough investigation into these "serious incidents."

Brunch Bread Trio
I was very disappointed with the size of the breads. The picture make it look like a normal size you would make at home, not half that size. The flavors were great, but I didn't feel it was worth the price..

This product is too dry
I've only tried the pumpkin walnut bread so far and it is very dry. Instead of receiving the pineapple bread, I received 2 pumpin walnut breads. A disappointment. I asked for the pineapple replacement when speaking to customer service but that was before tasting any cake. Had I tasted it, I would have asked for my money back.

Lymph Node Biopsy
How It Feels
You will feel only a quick sting from the needle if you have a local anesthesia to numb the biopsy area. You may feel some pressure when the biopsy needle is put in. After a fine-needle aspiration biopsy or core needle biopsy, the site may be tender for 2 to 3 days. You also may have a bruise around the site.
If you have general anesthesia for an open lymph node biopsy, you will not be awake during the biopsy. After you wake up, the area may be numb from a local anesthetic that was put into the biopsy site. You will also feel sleepy for several hours.
For 1 to 2 days after an open lymph node biopsy, you may feel tired. You may also have a mild sore throat if a tube was used to help you breathe during the biopsy. Using throat lozenges and gargling with warm salt water may help with the sore throat.
After an open biopsy, the area may feel tender, firm, swollen, and bruised. Fluid may collect near the biopsy site. Fluid may also leak from the biopsy site. You can use an ice pack or take an over-the-counter pain medicine (not aspirin) to help relieve swelling and mild pain. The tenderness should go away in about a week, and the bruising usually fades within 2 weeks. But the firmness and swelling may last for 6 to 8 weeks. Do not do any heavy lifting or other activities that stretch or pull the muscles around the area.

Hyperthermia (hyperpyrexia), in its advanced state referred to as heat stroke or sunstroke, is an acute condition which occurs when the body produces or absorbs more heat than it can dissipate.
It is usually due to excessive exposure to heat.
The heat-regulating mechanisms of the body eventually become overwhelmed and unable to effectively deal with the heat, and body temperature climbs uncontrollably.
This is a serious medical emergency that requires immediate medical attention.
For more information about the topic Hyperthermia, read the full article at Wikipedia.org, or see the following related articles:

I am a lover of 50s Kitsch, Old Hollywood Glamour, Vintage Sleaze, Vintage Cheesecake, Pin ups, Atomic Era style, fashion and design. About half of the images I post BELONG TO ME via the plethora of vintage magazines I own and a rickety old scanner on it's last legs, the other half DO NOT BELONG TO ME and are images I have found all over the net. I will make EVERY EFFORT to attribute an image that I post to it's proper owner. 95 percent of what I post are images from the 1950s and 60s, 4 percent are from earlier on and the remaining 1 percent can be anything that happens to float my boat at the moment. I Do post semi nude and nude images and what I consider to be "soft" fetish stuff mostly by Irving Klaw. I have had one or two requests asking me not to post those images. I have decided that I will continue to do so. I might add that I will NEVER post an image that I find to be HARD CORE, DISGUSTING, SHOCKING OR FRIGHTENING, there are more than enough of those images around already. Please enjoy your stay! Oh and, by the way...the search button on this blog actually WORKS!

Princeton library will host 'Postmark Princeton'
PRINCETON — The Princeton Public Library will present "Postmark Princeton," an evening of readings from letters written by men and women of Princeton from its earliest settlement through World War II, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday.
The program will include letters by Dr. Nathaniel Chamberlain from 1830, as well as the Bryant brothers; Civil War letters of 1862 from John Harford of Dover and Hattie Wiswell, who served as a Union nurse; letters written by Carl Sandburg and his fiancee Lillian Steichen (who taught at Princeton High School) during their courtship in 1908; newspaper accounts written for the Bureau County Republican in the 1920s by Hester Field, a missionary to Korea; and accounts of life during World War II from the PHS Class of 1942's "Buddy News," a newsletter produced by Mrs. A. R. Parker for her son, Private Hayden R. Parker and his classmates and from letters by June Gunning Hoge to her husband Hobart Gunning, stationed in Georgia in 1942. Readers will include Dick Dorsch, David and Jessica Gray, Edd and Karen Robinson, Ron McCutchan and Goldy Mortensen.
In addition, the public is invited to participate in a cookie exchange at the Princeton Public Library on Dec. 20, beginning at 6:30 p.m. The format will be "bring a dozen, take a dozen." The library is asking that participants also bring with them a short note explaining how the cookies (or other holiday treats) pertain to their personal or family story — whether it's a story of making them as a child, a memory of a beloved relative who passed down the recipe, or an appreciation of the ethnic heritage in which the recipe originated.

My question involves court procedures for the state of: Arizona
What process does one utilize to acquire any and all evidence the opposing side is claiming exists to support their counterclaims prior to trial? For example if I move for Summary Judgment I want the Court to know the opposing side has no evidence to support their claims (note we're talking about documentation, etc. not evidence that would require deposition, etc).
I don't want to waste my discovery tools in order to disprove their allegations; but I want to demand they present their evidence supporting their allegations.
For example, they may claim "we have a copy of a document that shows you X"
...I want to see that document... prior to trial.. and prior to my filing for SJ. What's the technique to force them to provide this?

How do I sign in on subsequent visits to community?
How does an event or gift post to my profile?

Why should I use Facebook Connect?
What is Facebook Connect?
Facebook Connect is a utility that uses your Facebook credentials to log into The Quad.
How do I initially sign in using Facebook Connect?
When you visit the community login page, you will see three options:
1. First time login
2. Return visitors
3. The "Connect with Facebook" icon:
If this is your first visit to our site, you will need to activate your account using our first time login option.
Find out more
After activating your account, you can sign in using your alumni community username and password. Or, you can click the "Connect with Facebook" icon.
Once you click the icon, a pop-up window will appear on your screen. Enter the e-mail address and password associated with your Facebook account. The pop-up will close, and your Facebook profile picture will appear onscreen with a short confirmation message.
Next, input your alumni community username and password in the fields to the left of your profile picture. Click the login button. This completes the link between Facebook and community, and only needs to be done once. The system will return you to the community homepage.
You are now Facebook Connect-ed!
What if I'm automatically logged into community because I checked the "remember my password" box?
No problem. Log out of the community by clicking "logout" at the bottom of our left-hand navigation menu. Then, activate Facebook Connect via the login page.
How do I sign in on subsequent visits to community?
When you return to the site and wish to log in, visit the login page and click the "Connect with Facebook" icon, rather than entering your community username and password. Provide your Facebook e-mail address and password in the pop-up window, and you will be able to access community services as usual.
How does an event or gift post to my news feed?
Once you confirm your online event registration or gift, you will see an option at the top of the confirmation screen to publish this item on Facebook. Click "Publish" or "Skip." You can set the default action by checking "Always do this for community" in the bottom left corner before making your choice.
If, once I've activated Facebook Connect, I login using my community username and password, will my site activity post to my Facebook profile?
No. In order to use Facebook Connect functionality, you must log in to community via the "Connect with Facebook" icon.
How do I Facebook disConnect? (Or, how do I turn the thing off?)
There are two ways of turning off the connection between Facebook and community. You can visit your Facebook application settings and check the box that says "Never publish stories from community."
Or, once you're logged in, you can visit the community home page and click the "revoke authorization" link in the text at the top left of your screen, near your Facebook profile picture. If you change your mind and want to re-establish the link, simply return to our login page and click the "Connect with Facebook" icon. (You will need to re-enter your community username and password as well.)
Why do I need to "re-allow" Facebook Connect starting Oct. 1, 2011?
This is a one-time occurrence in which you will simply need to click the "Allow" button (you will not have to re-enter your credentials). Along with many other recent changes, Facebook has removed the automatic login functionality (which automatically logged you into The Quad if you were logged into Facebook on the same device). Although it may be perceived as inconvenient, this change is a good thing, as it allows for enhanced security on The Quad.
Why should I use Facebook Connect?
Facebook Connect makes community more convenient because you can use your Facebook e-mail and password to access both sites.
Via Facebook, your friends already know what movies you like, what books you love, and how much you adore your dog. Facebook Connect lets them know that is an important part of your life, too. When classmates on your Facebook friends list visit your profile or glance at their news feed, they'll see that you have registered for an event — one that they might like to attend. If you approve the post, your recent activity will also note when you have invested in the university through our online giving form. We like to think of it as leading by example.
