It quotes US officials as saying that Syria's military has begun loading the necessary components for sarin gas into bombs. The good news is that the bombs have not been loaded onto planes, and it's possible Assad will keep it that way. For now, he's ordered the military only to "be prepared" to use the poison gas, say intelligence officials.

Set on 500 acres, Birdwood is a golf course rich in history. Its verdant hills were part of a 1739 "upland wilderness" land patent, one of the earliest in the colony. The University of Virginia acquired the property in 1974, enlisting architect Lindsay Ervin in 1984 to transform Birdwood into the award-winning golf course it is today. With an emphasis on environmental stewardship, Birdwood Golf Course is a certified member of the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program, created and administered by Audubon International. Under the program we are focused on best management practices in environmental planning, wildlife and habitat management, chemical-use reduction and safety, water conservation and outreach and education. Home to the University of Virginia's men and women's golf teams, Birdwood reigns as one of the region's finest golf courses.
The friendly team at the Birdwood Golf Course is eager to make your day on the golf course a spectacular one. If you are seeking a way for your friends, colleagues or employees to gather together and experience a relaxed camaraderie, we highly recommend our planning services to help you organize a group outing unlike any other.

The Best Way to Dry Your Skin
Are you assaulting your skin on a daily basis?
After washing, if you rub your face dry - STOP!
Consider the pat.
It might take a few extra seconds, but it'll go a long way at helping your moisturizers and emollients work their best. Plus, the skin on your face - especially around the eyes - is delicate. You don't want to help gravity!
The patting practice isn't just for your face, your body can benefit too. Rubbing can make dry or sensitive skin worse. So while your body is still damp, slather on lotion or light body oil to seal in soft skin.
Pat, don't rub!

This morning I decided I should go to the gym. Unfortunately, this thought came into my head at the exact same moment that I got a craving for a nap. Desperate for any reason to stay home, I looked down at my right ring finger and got all the excuse I could ever need.
When you hear the word "exercise," you probably think one of the following things:
- "I don't feel like exercising, but I know I need to. Eh, maybe tomorrow."
- "I don't believe in exercising. That's just something skinny people do."
- "I love exercising, especially if it means I get to finish off that tub of ice cream in the freezer."
When I think of exercise, I picture a traumatic scene from my childhood, complete with blood, screaming and a trip to the emergency room. You guys, exercising is dangerous.
My dad taught and played tennis at two different fitness clubs in Anchorage. He would take us kids with him frequently. We spent so much time at the clubs, that many of the members and employees knew us by name. Being the rambunctious (yet loveable) kids that we were, it wasn't unusual for us to run around unsupervised, playing with every piece of equipment we came across. They were pretty much giant playgrounds and we had a free pass to do whatever we wanted (I have a feeling the club owners may have felt differently).
Many of my fondest childhood memories took place at these clubs. I took my first swim lessons, watched my first episodes of Beverly Hills 90210 in one of the TV lounges,* burnt myself making tea and picked up more tennis balls than I could ever count. Among the countless memories, one stands out above the rest: the treadmill accident.
I was five years old. My dad was on the tennis court and my sister and I decided to get in a good workout, as all 50 lb. kids like to do. A lady, whose name I can't remember, but whose face and big blonde hair will forever be engrained in my memory, was "supervising" us. I thought it would be fun to go for a jog on the treadmill. If you're not familiar with the evolution of the treadmill, the ones back in the late '80's were not the slim, light ones from present day. Back then, they were big and bulky. More importantly, they didn't have the safety string thing** that you attach to your clothes in case you should fall. Ah, if only. Anyway, I hopped on one of the treadmills and began to increase the speed. Oh, this was fun. I increased it more. And more. Then, I thought to myself that I might fall, as I was having trouble keeping up. As usual, my instincts were dead on. I reached up to turn down the speed, but it was too late. I slipped and flew backwards like a rag doll (picture Raggedy Ann trying to run on a treadmill- it was just like that). When I tried to save myself, my right hand got sucked into the bottom of the treadmill. Um, ouch. It was bad. I remembered screaming so loudly, not from the pain, but out of sheer panic and fear. And oh, the blood. So much blood. The blonde lady and my sister rushed over to help me. Luckily, one of my favorite club members was there and she was a doctor. She rushed me to the hospital and my brother was asked to go get my dad.
My brother had the attention span of your average 8 year old. He went down to the court that my dad was playing on. From what I've been told, this is the approximate conversation that took place:
Dad: "Hey Zach."
Zach: "Hi."
Dad: "Is everything okay?"
Zach: "Yep."
Zach: "Oh, Carly's at the hospital."
Dad: "What?!?"
My parents soon arrived at the hospital. I was abnormally calm by that point and proud of the fact that I hadn't cried one bit (I just screamed bloody murder instead). I was eventually taken into surgery. Let me provide some helpful advice. If you're ever about to undergo surgery and the nurse asks you what flavor of gas you want, do not choose chocolate. I've never felt so deceived in my life. It smelled like death, at least for the 2 seconds before I fell into a deep sleep. Anyway, the skin from the top of my right ring finger was, um, gone. They took skin from my hip and grafted it onto my hand. Afterward, I had a cast in the shape of a ball. Real cute.
For several weeks, I got to go to "hand therapy," which was more of a spa treatment than medical treatment. I would put my hand in the hand bubble bath, which was actually kind of painful, but totally worth it knowing I was getting to miss kindergarten.
To this day, I have a scar that runs down the top of my finger. It's been there so long that it's never bothered me in the least. I think the bigger scar is a mental one, which is only a problem upon seeing a treadmill. This may also explain the fear I have when stepping onto an escalator.***
Oddly enough, I feel like going to the gym after writing this post. Don't worry, I won't be using the treadmill, or watching Beverly Hills 90210. I'm smarter than that now.
But first, a nap. One needs to be fully rested for a good workout.
*My parents would have been ticked if they knew I was watching this at that age.
**Does anyone remember the kids' snack "String Things?" Not my favorite string candy, but pretty tasty nonetheless.
***I can't be the only one. Walking up normal stairs is hard enough to handle, let alone moving ones. Whose idea was that anyway?

Ah, Mother's Day, that one day of the year when we do special things to show Mom how much we appreciate the efforts she makes the other 364 days to keep the house running, the kids clothed, the finances balanced, the horses brushed, the cows milked ...
Sorry, got carried away for a moment there.
The point is that being a mother is hard work. Sure, June Cleaver made it look easy, what with the pressed white apron, the freshly baked pan of cookies and the morsels of pithy maternal wisdom, but she had writers and stagehands. Your mom has, if she's lucky, a maid who comes in twice a week and NEVER remembers to wash the baseboards.
So it's important that you get the right gift for the woman who brought you into this world. You need something that will show her just how much you love her, what you think of her and how much she means to you.
Herewith, five things to avoid giving Mom if you want to get your message across ...
No. 5: Cookbooks
Your mom loves to cook. She's really good at it. You have fond memories of family dinners in your youth where her culinary skills shone forth and you left the table with a full belly and a happy heart. Her little plastic box of recipes, scribbled on index cards and clipped from magazines, is a treasure trove of food wisdom.
So here you come with a cookbook. What exactly does that say to Mom?
Say your mother is a great German cook and you buy her a coffee table-quality Italian cookbook. You're saying, "Mom, your spaetzle stinks. Try making ravioli instead."

Former U.S. Undersecretary of Energy Kristina Johnson discusses the empowering experiences of her life and career in academia, government and private industry. In a conversation with STVP's Tina Seelig, Johnson identifies the strengths of each of these areas to affect change and innovation, and offers lessons in leading a life that can capitalize on new opportunities.
Tina Seelig is the Executive Director for the Stanford Technology Ventures Program where she is responsible for the management, operations, and dissemination efforts of STVP. In addition, Tina is the Director of the Stanford Entrepreneurship Network and the co-Director of the Mayfield Fellows Program. Tina also teaches a course in the Department of Management Science & Engineering on Creativity and Innovation. Prior to joining STVP, Tina worked as an entrepreneur, management consultant, author, and scientist. Tina received her Ph.D. from Stanford University Medical School in 1985 where she studied Neuroscience. Tina has worked as management consultant for Booz, Allen, and Hamilton, has written several popular science books and has designed a series of educational games. Her books include The Epicurean Laboratory, Incredible Edible Science, and a series called Games for Your Brain. After Tina's first book was published in 1991, she became interested in how books are marketed. This led her to start a company designed to help match books with buyers. The product was a multimedia system for bookstore customers, called BookBrowser. BookBrowser was a kiosk-based system that allowed customers to identify books of interest. With the help of a team of engineers and graphic designers, Tina built the business and sold the company in 1993. After selling her business, Tina worked as a Multimedia Producer for Compaq Computer Corporation. In this position Tina led a team of engineers, artists, scriptwriters, and education specialists through the design and implementation of a series of multimedia titles. Tina's current position as Executive Director of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program takes advantage of her technical background, in addition to her experiences as a manager, entrepreneur, and educator.
Stanford Technology Ventures Program's Executive Director Tina Seelig shares rich insights in creative thinking and the entrepreneurial mindset. Her talk, based on her 2009 book, What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20, cites numerous classroom successes of applied problem-solving and the lessons of failure.
Tina Seelig, Executive Director for the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, provides insights on life, leadership, and the little things that make a big difference in an entrepreneurial setting.

The magic of camp discovered at Camp Kindle
For one week they�re just kids swinging from the ropes and singing by the campfire on 160 green acres of land surrounded by forest and overlooking Silver Creek in Water Valley.
�They�ve all had this horrific thing happen to them in their life. They all have that in common,� said Kelsey Morrison, program coordinator at Camp Kindle, a kids� cancer camp operated through the Kids Cancer Care Foundation.
�This is a place for them to escape, a place they can come and just have fun,� she said.
It�s Thursday morning and it�s activity time for the campers. A group is busy with beads inside the craft cabin and a bunch of younger kids are giving each other makeovers inside a lodge. Down below on the fields, the older kids are laughing and yelling as a soccer match starts.
The season started this year on July 9. It�s a big year for the camp and the Kids Cancer Care Foundation. Camp Kindle was purchased in 2009 but has undergone extensive renovations to the tune of $8 million, which has mostly been completed.
�We ran the program for the first couple of years in pretty run down dilapidated buildings that were kept together with a lot of love and band aids,� said Christine McIver, founder of Kids Cancer Care.
McIver started the kids� cancer camp in Alberta in 1991 by renting space at a camp near Bragg Creek.
She was motivated to provide a place for children with cancer and their families to escape after her son was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 1986.
�There was no program at all for children with cancer in the province and very few in the country and not a lot of research was happening,� she explained. In 1990, when he was going through the bone marrow transplant, she really wanted to send him to camp and she knew there was one in B.C. She went for a week as well, but not with him.
�I wanted to make sure he experienced it on his own. I picked everybody�s brain and came back with the attitude that I�m starting this camp for kids with cancer in this province. Ignorance is bliss because I had no idea how big this project would be, but it turned out to be a really good thing to do.�
Her son Derek passed away just a few months before they had their first program in Alberta in 1991, which continued in Kananaskis for 19 years.
The foundation eventually outgrew the space and purchased Camp Kindle in 2009 for $2.2 million.
In 2011, the foundation embarked on an $8-million fundraising campaign to pay for the camp purchase and to carry out the renovations and upgrades to make it suitable for children with cancer.
So far, they�ve raised 82 per cent of the funds.
The renovations included building a new dining hall and medical facility to house oncology doctors and nurses. Other renovations include new dorms with wheelchair access, new roadways, a volunteer lodge, a high-ropes course, climbing wall, swimming pool and water system.
The camp brings in kids of all ages for a week at a time during the summer. Siblings are always invited to attend as well.
�It�s helpful to see people who have gone through the same thing,� said Rose Murawsky, 14, who took a time-out from a soccer game to talk about camp. She attends the camp with her four siblings every year in support of her little sister Grace, 7, who had a tumour on her kidney.
�It�s easy to integrate here. At home it can be hard to explain the situation to people but here everyone knows what it�s like,� she said.
The family also includes Eli, 8, Noah, 11, and Mackenzie, 18.
The family agrees it�s important to come together to get the chance to spend time as a family having fun.
�It has been one of my bests summers,� said Mackenzie of transitioning from a camper to councillor. She said she was too old to continue as a camper this year but didn�t want to say goodbye to Kindle.
�It�s important to our family to continue,� she explained.
Besides getting to spend time together, each member of the Murawsky family has their own favourite activity. Eli likes the dance held at the end of the week for all of the campers and Rose likes meeting new people. Noah likes the giant swing which, at its highest point, is 80 feet from the ground and gives the campers a view of Silver Creek.
Grace, with blue eye shadow streaked across her lids and wearing bright red lipstick from the morning makeover, has been quiet during the discussion but her eyes light up when she shares her favourite activity � the flying squirrel.
The flying squirrel is part of the ropes initiative course, the newest rope course in Canada, part of the camp�s makeover.
�It gives them a chance to push themselves,� said Joel Fischer, head ropes coordinator. �Some of them are treated with velvet gloves at home because their family is really worried about them,� he said.
�Here they get to do things they didn�t think they could.� He said the best part of his job is watching kids come down from their climb and running to their friends with a big hug.
�It gives them a chance to grow and realize what they�re capable of.�
The course includes a lift to bring children in wheelchairs or with mobility issues up to the top. Just last week Fischer said he worked with a blind student to go through the course.
Other outdoor activities include archery, hiking paths and a low-ropes course.
The camp can sleep and feed 180 children a week. This was the first year a full week camp was offered for kids with their parents. McIver said it was mostly newcomers who wanted a chance to experience the camp life.
All of the money raised for the camp has been through fundraising and renting out the camp during the year. For more information visit www.kidscancercare.ab.ca

Paul Volcker: Bailout Distasteful but Necessary
October 14, 2008
Author: Paul Volcker, International Council Member, Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs
Paul Volcker, speaking at a lecture in Singapore, said the U.S. economy faces a "considerable recession." Below are a summary of his comments from Bloomberg News and the Wall Street Journal. Volcker is a member of the Belfer Center's International Council. Read the full article here.
On the bailout:
- The bailout is "distasteful" and "not consistent with a capitalistic system" -- but "however distasteful, they are necessary to restore stability to the financial system."
- The bailout will help turn an "inevitable recession into something more manageable and that will last not too long."
On the economy:
- The U.S. and Europe face a "considerable recession."
- The global financial system is in "intensive care."
- "A strong recovery is beyond any reasonable expectation...a bigger [budget] deficit [is needed] to save the economy."
On the need for stimulus:
- "There is a need for stimulus measures on the budgetary front" to combat the recession..."A higher deficit is needed."
On inflation:
- "Inflation is not going to be a problem in the short run....But it's something we do have to guard against when we get out of the recession."

The joke is that Warwick feels justified in trying to find the person. He gets to the class and starts talking, and is noticeably emboldened when he gets a few laughs from the kids. Just as he's getting caught up in his success and feels like justice is being done, the kid is revealed to be disabled and the situation flips on its head, now he's crucifying a disabled boy in front of his class.

5 Earnings Stocks Poised to Pop
This is why I scan the market for heavily shorted stocks that are about to report earnings. You only need to find a few of these stocks in a year to help enhance your portfolio returns -- the gains become so outsized in such a short timeframe that your profits add up quickly.
>>7 Stocks With Relative Strength to Beat the Market
That said, let's not forget that stocks are heavily shorted for a reason, so you have to use trading discipline and sound money management when playing earnings short-squeeze candidates. It's important that you don't go betting the farm on these plays and that you manage your risk accordingly. Sometimes the best play is to wait for the stock to break out following the report before you jump in to profit off a short squeeze. This way, you're letting the trend emerge after the market has digested all of the news.
Of course, sometimes the stock is going to be in such high demand that you risk missing a lot of the move. That's why it can be worth betting prior to the report -- but only if you have a very strong conviction that the stock is going to rip higher, and its acting technically very bullish.

They also were paying tribute to Eileen Murphy, a woman who dedi-cated 38 years of service to the com-munity and to the children of Bethpage. The day was a huge success and everyone who came had a great time. The activities commenced with the introduction of Honored guests Representative Peter King, County Legislator Ed Mangano, State Senator Kemp Hannon, Town Councilwoman Rose Walker, State Assemblyman Rob Walker, TownCouncilman Joe Pinto, School Superintendent Richard Marsh and Honoree Eileen Murphy. Representative King presented Eileen with flowers, a Bethpage Baseball T-shirt, and a commemorative plaque honoring Eileen for all her years of service. After a brief performance by the Bethpage High School JV Kickline team and Kelly Ryan's inspirational rendition of the National Anthem, Representative King threw out the fist pitch to catcher Nick Marino to offi-cially start the 2009 season. Thanks to the help of 50 volun-teers who showed up early to get the fields in playable condition 5 games were played during the course of the day. In the early games, Charlie Marino's 13u tournament team won 6- 4 over a tough team from Commack; Frank Siblanos' White Sox defeated Tom Galgano's Athletics 3- 0; Paul Bitetti's Thunder defeated Rob Aheam's Heat 12- 7. The afternoon games were kicked off by Ryan Selock singing of the National Anthem followed by Jose Polit's Royals 7- 0 victory over Brian McGowan's Blue Jays and Dennis Schnabel's Thunder's 10- 5 win over Bobby Fehrenbach's Racers. Regardless of the scores and the out-come of the games, it was great to see a community come together to cele-brate the start of our baseball and S o f t b a l l season and to pay homage to a woman who dedicated the better part of her life to it and its residents.

Richard Stallman: Cloud Computing a Trap
As an original founder of Open Source, Richard Stallman cautions in an interview with the British Guardian newspaper about the repercussions of cloud computing. His main objection: dependency and loss of control.
Just days after Stallman finished celebrating the 25th anniversary of his GNU Open Source project, the controversial free software activist was again making headlines. This time his diatribe was aimed at a current trend in the IT industry known as cloud computing. Through this service, which even Red Hat offers with its Jboss over the Amazon EC2, IT power such software, computing capacity, and even storage can be rented from external sources rather than being drawn from the desktop. The promise to users is the greater flexibility of paying only for what they need. Stallman doesn't trust this promise. He takes Google's Gmail service as an example and warns that such web-based programs force locked and proprietary systems on users, and can only become increasingly expensive.
Stallman's Guardian interview contains harsh words: "It's stupidity. It's worse than stupidity: it's a marketing hype campaign." He suspects a strategic conspiracy: "Somebody is saying this is inevitable – and whenever you hear somebody saying that, it's very likely to be a set of businesses campaigning to make it true."
The Open Source activist warns computer users to maintain control over their information instead of giving it away to outsiders: "One reason you should not use web applications to do your computing is that you lose control." To do so, he says, would be almost as bad as using a proprietary program. Stallman thereby sticks close to the mission of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and its recent Statement on Freedom and Network Services. Through this statement, FSF and activist group autonomo.us came together to discuss issues of freedom for users under the concept Software as a Service (SaaS). The similarity in concept with that of Stallman's is no accident. Stallman was also the first president of FSF while he was helping develop the General Public License (GPL).
"Free Software" not "Open Source"
Stallman hates the term "Open Source" and is not an advocate of "Open Source". The GNU project is certainly not an "Open Source" one either...

I've never realized how accurate that looks.
Can't ever not reblog this piece of perfectness ~
Oh my lord
It still amazes me of how accurate it is.
I grew up watching countless episodes of Winnie the pooh and not did I once notice this. Oh God.
I only ever have noticed OCD, depression and anxiety there, but I was too little to pay more attention to mental illnesses.
those things are mental illnesses ^

Today is a holiday in the United States and I'm using part of the time for some spring cleaning. I've set aside three suits and a half dozen pair of odd trousers for donation, reorganized the closet that I use for out of season clothes, and gone online for some new underwear. Once I choose some fabric for a couple pair of replacement pajamas I'll be ready for a nap just like Bart Simpson.
I really hate to give up those pajamas, which have reached that perfect state of softness. But when the elbows start wearing through it's got to be time.

I know how painful it is to get rid of those soft pajamas...
What will you be replacing them with? As a fanatic, I started believing that a well dressed man is well dressed even in bed, or at least breakfast in the morning in front of his family. Elegant pajamas, slippers that are attractive and a regimental robe, no?
I never gave it much thought in my 20's & 30's, but now I find nightwear can be just as fascinating in a gentleman's regular wardrobe. Just the thing after your spring cleaning... - May 26, 2008 at 12:46:00 PM PDT

Sorry, Will. l believe that's Homer Simpson taking a nap.
You mentioned at one time you clean your suits seasonally before putting them away. Is this every fashion season (Spring/Summer, Autumn/Winter) as in your Medium Wardrobe blog, or the 4 calendar seasons? Do you have 2 seasons of suits or 4? - May 26, 2008 at 5:35:00 PM PDT

Hmmm...what size are you? I can think of a worthy recipient. :-)
And I think you mean Homer Simpson. Bart's too busy running around making trouble. - May 26, 2008 at 7:40:00 PM PDT

Hi Will,
I am also curious to know what material you use for your pajamas. I recently started wearing nightshirts and enjoy the comfort in bed and in the morning. The one's I have are from Brooks Brothers and have not worn well. It would be great to find a quality source.
Thanks! - May 27, 2008 at 1:27:00 PM PDT

Will game live up to hype in BCS championship?
An artist puts the finishing touches on the BCS National Championship logo on the beach Sunday, Jan. 6, 2013, in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Notre Dame takes on Alabama for the National Championship in an NCAA college football game on Monday night. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara) |
MIAMI — Sometimes, the buildup to a game can overwhelm what actually happens on the field.
Certainly, No. 1 Notre Dame and No. 2 Alabama would have to play nothing less than a classic to live up to all the hype for Monday night's BCS championship.
Before either team stepped on the field in balmy South Florida, this was shaping up as one of the most anticipated games in years, a throwback to the era when Keith Jackson & Co. called one game a week, when it was a big deal for teams from different parts of the country to meet in a bowl game, when everyone took sides based on where they happened to live.

" This game is a total farce and should be boycotted. Until the NCAA decides on a true national championship playoff system as they have with basketball the BCS is simply BS. The problem there is too much money tied up in the bowl system with corporate sponsorships. The NCAA needs to make a clean break and abolish the BCS. Shorten the regular season by a few games and eliminate all the bowl games. Establish a 3 or 4 week playoff system with say the top 24 teams and take it from there. The NFL has is right, why not just transfer that same system to the NCAA. Couldn't imagine anyone paying $60,000 to watch a meaningless game. I think I'll watch Antiques Roadshow tonight. "
