Thanks a lot for your kind words! I think your idea is very interesting and something extremely useful as well
Some first thoughts about interesting features
- during the day, capture weather conditions and create a weighted counter sum that will be used in calculation in frequency/length of the sprinkler intervals that will be started after sunset
- try to "look ahead" by using weather forecasts (makes no sense to start if the fore cast for tomorrow is rain)
- temperature measurement, to be used in determining the first start time for the first sprinkle (makes no sense to put out water on the grass if temp still is to high?)
- cost tariff support (if water is cheaper after a certain time?)
- individual zone support of the device with "shadow" compensation factor i.e. some zones might be more in shadow, thus requiring less watering
- etc

Birdsall Reaches Settlement With Attorney General's Office
Criminal prosecution still pending against firm members
A settlement between Birdsall Services Group and State Division of Criminal Justice was reached on Monday afternoon for what was called a "civil forfeiture action," according to a press release from Attorney General Jeffrey S. Chiesa. According to the settlement Birdsall will pay the state a total of $2.6 million including $2.5 million in forfeiture and $100,000 to cover the state's attorneys fees in the bankruptcy action. Most of the funding for the payment will come from "the cash surrender of certain 'key man' life insurance policies," from officers and former officers who are under indictment according to the release. The remainder will come from cash on hand. Birdsall will also set up a $1 million fund that will be used to pay up to …

BERLIN – Bob McIntosh resigned as chair of the Berlin Historic District Commission (HDC) Monday after Mayor Gee Williams overturned a ruling the HDC had made regarding the Atlantic Hotel.
The original decision made by the HDC was that the hotel would not be allowed to replace its standard wooden windows with vinyl look-a-likes. After the ruling, hotel representatives appealed the decision to the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA).
The case was scheduled for Monday night. However, the appeal was withdrawn before the meeting when Williams vacated the HDC's decision, granting the hotel the right to retain the 16 vinyl replacements they had already installed. Any additional replacements would require HDC approval, though.
When asked if he thought Williams had overstepped his authority by dismissing the HDC's ruling, McIntosh, an attorney by trade, responded, "I believe so."
He added, "I don't believe that the mayor has the legal authority to tell the code enforcement officer not to do his job."
McIntosh posed the question of whether or not Williams interceding on behalf of the hotel was any different than, "fixing a traffic ticket."
Williams commented on his decision, defending the action by claiming that it was counterproductive to remove the windows that were already in place.
"All over town we're encouraging people to be proactive, upgrading things like windows to be more energy efficient …," Williams said. "To me, we simply do not have the rationale to support ripping out good, energy efficient windows."
Representatives of the hotel appeared before the HDC in November, requesting permission to replace wooden windows with vinyl. However, 16 of the windows had already been replaced before the matter was even proposed to the HDC. While the representatives claimed that there had been a misunderstanding, McIntosh saw it more as a deliberate attempt to circumvent the system, claiming that the hotel already had "one strike against them" before they even made their presentation.
Williams was not as skeptical as McIntosh, asserting that he believed the hotel had not purposefully tried to sneak the replacements passed the HDC.
"I don't think it was intentional," he said.Williams stressed that it would be unfair to punish the hotel for what it claimed was a genuine mistake. Additionally, he explained that out of all of the issues facing the town, replacing wood windows with vinyl was not a major concern.
"Frankly, if you stood someone in front of the hotel they couldn't tell which windows were which," the mayor said.
McIntosh made it clear that the exact details of the case did not matter so much as the fact that Williams had, in McIntosh's opinion, undermined the authority of the HDC.
"How can the Historic District Commission continue to operate in good faith?" asked McIntosh.
McIntosh stressed that the HDC did not have the right to force the hotel to remove the vinyl replacements. All the commission did was decide if those replacements were legal or not, and that's a discretion given to them by state law. After that, it would be up to the code enforcement officer, who has the responsibility and the power, to have the windows removed.
"Can the mayor tell an employee of the town not to do their job?" asked McIntosh, explaining that was exactly what Williams was doing by telling the code enforcement officer to ignore the HDC's mandate.
Williams stood by his assertion that improvements like upgrading the windows set a good example for the rest of the town and that he saw it as his duty to intercede in what he believed was a potentially harmful call by the HDC.
"None of this is personal on any level," said Williams, who stressed that it was an independent decision and that the hotel had not influenced him in anyway. "I haven't spoken to the hotel or their representatives."
When informed of Williams' claim, McIntosh replied, "and I take him at his word on that."
McIntosh added, "He's one of the better mayors we've had in the last 20 years. I just think he made an error of judgment."
However, McIntosh did point out that many of the major contributors to Williams' campaign for state delegate were owners of the hotel and that, while nothing may have been discussed directly, Williams may have felt pressured to intercede for the hotel because of his association.
"But that's just politics," said McIntosh.Williams expressed regret that McIntosh had felt it necessary to resign over the situation.
"He's certainly done more than his share over the years of supporting the town," said Williams of McIntosh.
As the HDC moves to fill the spot left by McIntosh's departure, Williams asserted the hope that the commission would err on the side of progress in cases such as this in the future.
"We do have to evolve into the 21st Century," he said.There are 1 comment(s).

A series by Green Mountain alum Jacki Monaco on her journey to overcome binge eating. Follow her every other Thursday as she blogs about the victories and challenges of recovery.
Thanksgiving is just around the cornucopia. A time to celebrate, rejoice, and overindulge until we loosen the top button before it pops off. For most people, Thanksgiving is purely celebratory. But for those of us with food frustrations, it can be one of the hardest days of the year as we sit surrounded by family and overwhelmed by food options and abundance, portion sizes, and number of helpings.
This year I have a proposition. Let's make our choices the thing that we honor, not the turkey or the can-shaped cranberry gelatin that they call sauce. Instead of being scared of the smells that cause us to salivate, let us be in the moment and soak them in. We can mindfully use all of our senses to override what some of us may think we want to do: overflow two plates and hide in a room, away from the company who won't understand what Thanksgiving means to a binge eater.
Let us not cry inside at the sight of a genetically gifted cousin who can devour without shame because he/she is merely following the holiday rules and overindulging, not binging.
Let us not push our food around in the face of an audience and then overcompensate in the dark when the party is over.
Let us not sneak bites while we cook, but taste for taste when the recipe calls for it.
Let us not hate ourselves for a slice of pie or punish ourselves the day after if we have two.
Let us enjoy the food that is calling our taste buds and ignore the foods that we know we don't really want.
Let us believe in ourselves more than we believe in a turkey and its trimmings. It has no hold over our self-confidence and determination unless we let it.
Let us love ourselves, the people around us, and put food third on the list.
Let us take the day one hour, one minute, one bite at a time.
It is just one day and whatever happens in your home, your kitchen, or on your plate – it will be okay.
We will be okay.


text: Please everyone let us embark on this potential life-changing endeavor with nothing but peace and intelligence in our hearts and minds. If any protesters show any inclination of aggression or aggravation towards the powers that be or the police we will destroy any chance of change. The Occupation of Wall Street ended up in shambles because a few protestors took the authority of antagonizing the police and authorities. We will gain no others if we come off as a fringe movement of radicals and extremists. The public will view us just like they view the tea party. I have already heard of individuals who have intentions to join the movement with intent to cause violence. PLEASE let us stand in unity and not allow these individuals to jeopardize our efforts. If you witness anyone being antagonistic or aggressive please pull other peacemakers to him or her and try to let them know their energy is not welcome. If we become aggressive and violent we only become what we are fighting against. Love covers a multitude of sins. Let us show The City of Angels is indeed the City of Angels and begin the American peaceful revolution that is needed. Let us be the Shining City On The Hill.

Smit has spent the last five seasons with Sharks but, as expected, he has now agreed a move to England.
He confirmed his new destination via Twitter, writing: "It's official, I proudly announce today that I'll be joining Saracens once this season is over for 2 seasons and look forward to a new chapter."
Smit, 33, also spoke about his decision to end an 11-year Springbok career after next year's tournament in an interview with the Daily Telegraph.
He said: "I am hoping to make it to the World Cup and have a pretty good shout there and that will be me," said Smit.
"I have had 11 years with the Boks so I think I have had my fair share and that will allow me to concentrate fully with Saracens, when I link up with them two weeks after my last game [for South Africa], which will hopefully be early part of November.
"My intention is to go to Saracens and make a big impact. My body is strong and that is why I have signed for another two seasons.
"I have been lucky that my body has held up pretty well and I do feel I can make a difference and fulfil my role within a team.
"My job is to fit in as fast as possible, earn the respect of the players and immerse myself in the culture."
Hooker Smit is likely to fall behind compatriot Schalk Brits in the Sarries pecking order, despite the latter missing out on selection for South Africa recently.
Smit is aware of the competition he faces at his new club and sympathises with Brit's World Cup disappointment.
"Schalk Brits is one of their best players and my role there will be probably to relieve the pressure on him a bit and hopefully bring through some of the younger players," Smit said.
"It is probably a little frustrating for him (to be overlooked by the Springboks) but his cause probably hasn't been helped by the fact that we had to pick overseas players like Ruan Pienaar and Francois Steyn as most teams don't like to pick too many players abroad."

The Different Types of Cosmetic Surgery Procedures
Surgeries refer to medical procedures originally done to correct body structures that were affected by disease, genetics and accidents. Today surgeries can also be associated to plastic surgeries and cosmetic surgeries. These are surgeries that were not known before but have suddenly become popular.
While plastic surgery can still be considered a medical procedure because it can correct body parts damaged by disease and accidents, this is not the same all the time for cosmetic surgery. Cosmetic surgeries are procedures conducted to reshape normal body structures to enhance overall physical appearance. From the name itself, these are procedures to enhance beauty and physical appearance. The common examples of cosmetic surgery include tummy tuck, breast augmentation, liposuction and nose lift.
Liposuction – this is also known as suction assisted lipectomy (SAL) which is usually done to remove unwanted fat in the different parts of the body. It is considered the most popular form of cosmetic surgery particularly in the US. It is popular because the results can be seen at once and is very effective. Aside from that, it is a safe, affordable and effective way of losing body fat. Instead of spending long hours of diet and exercise, people would just go to the surgery clinic to undergo liposuction.
Tummy tuck – is known also as abdominoplasty and is the next popular cosmetic surgery after liposuction. When a person increases weight, there is a big possibility that the skin will stretch to accommodate excess fasts and muscles. By the time he loses weight again, the skin would become saggy and not pleasing to lock out. Using the procedure, the excess and the stretched skinned are removed to give the body a flat and toned look. Unlike liposuction which can be applied on different parts of the body, the tummy tuck is focused on the abdomen area.
Breast augmentation – after a masectormy, patients usually undergo breast augmentation. This procedure involves the insertion of breast implants where the implants can be of different materials. Some of the common materials for the implant included silicon and plastic bag that is filled with water. Once the procedure is done, breasts are expected to be firm, tight and good-looking.
Nose lift – this often referred to as rhinoplasty. This is a procedure on the nose conducted to enhance its shape. The purpose of the nose lift procedure can differ from one person to another. One person may want to remove excess nose bone to correct the shape while there are those that want their nose to be straight and good-looking.
Cosmetic surgeries are usually fast, affordable and the results can be seen at once. The nose lift does not heal at once. Cosmetic surgeries have also no known negative effects. This is the main reason why people continue to try and undergo cosmetic surgeries.

Frigid Weather Ensures Lake Elmo Lions Annual Ice Fishing Contest
The Lake Elmo Lions ice fishing contest is set for Sunday, Feb. 3 from 1–3 p.m. on Lake Jane.
Old Man Winter has brought Minnesotans plenty of frigid weather lately, and locally, that will allow the Lake Elmo Lions to host their annual ice fishing contest on Lake Jane.

VIDEO: Rushern Baker Makes Friendly Wager on Redskins-Seahawks Game
Rushern L. Baker III and King County Executive Dow Constantine have agreed to wear the opposing team's jersey in public if their team is not victorious Sunday.
Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker III is confident in his Washington Redskins.
So confident that—after winning his bet against Howard County Executive Ken Ulman—he's taking his football wagering across the country to King County, WA.
"This is a very exciting time for Prince George's County and hosting an NFL playoff game for the first time since 1999 means a great deal to this region and the team's legion of fans," Baker said.
Baker's "coffee bet" is against King County Executive Dow Constantine on Sunday's NFC wildcard playoff game between the Redskins and Seattle Seahawks.
What's at stake? The loser will wear the other team's jersey during a public event, and the winner will receive a case of coffee from the other city.
The wager is also to raise awareness for National Mentoring Month and the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King National Day of Service on January 21.
"The Redskins' performance this season has been extremely inspirational to me and so many others. Their achievements are a great example of what can happen when you work hard, remain focused and believe in yourself," Baker said. "These are the types of lessons we need to teach our young people and mentoring is one way to ensure that children learn these life lessons."
For more details, see the video above or at this link.
The Washington Redskins (10-6) will host the Seattle Seahawks (11-5) at FedEx Field on Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 4:30 p.m.

I ran out of ideas of what to film to test out the camera, so I got some footage of the anti-Bush people in Durham, NC (USA) who do their thing every weekend.
It's too bad that I didn't have the camera back during the Duke Lacrosse madness. I would LOVE to have a high-definition record of all the jackasses who were beating the pots and pans demanding castration for the team.
[Size is approx. 181 MB]
BTW Interviewing is really hard. I didn't know what to say, and I am not in line with the politics of most of the people I talked to that day but I didn't want to piss them off so they wouldn't let me film them. I guess I have a little more respect for Charlie Rose and people like that now.

President Bush currently has the power to declare anyone he wants, including U.S. citizens, to be an "enemy combatant" — and imprison them indefinitely without access to our court system – and without any explanation for their imprisonment.
The Senate is set to vote this week on whether or not to restore habeas corpus — the fundamental constitutional right that allows citizens to challenge the lawfulness of their imprisonment.
Contact your U.S. senators now and speak up to save habeas corpus and restore the Constitution.
Last September, Congress shamefully passed the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA) — which codified the suspension of habeas corpus rights, and allowed the government to continue holding prisoners at Guantanamo (and other secret sites) indefinitely with no access to a fair hearing in court.
Indefinite imprisonment without judicial review is unconstitutional — and fundamentally un-American. It's a hallmark of fascist dictatorships, not constitutional democracies like ours.
Fortunately, there is movement in Congress to restore this fundamental constitutional right. This Monday, September 14th, the Senate is expected to resume debate on the Department of Defense Authorization bill and vote on S.185, the Specter-Leahy amendment to restore habeas corpus. This will be the first full up-or-down vote in Congress on restoring habeas corpus, and could give Guantanamo prisoners the long-denied right to independent review of their detention.
If our moral standing in the world community is ever to be restored, this bill is a very good first step.

Swampers unite in Chicago for 2013. I'm planning to run this stupid race and am hoping that in the process that I can meet some of you fine people assholes before or after the race. I know it is a way off but we have to signup very early (Feb I think) and have to get hotel rooms. I would really love hate to meet some of you dorks and think this is a great race to do that.
I would also like to throw out the gaunlet to anyone who in the last six months has run a 3:25 - 3:10 as a PR. I'm looking for a challenge from one or multiple people who are willing to lay it on the line in this race. Runners around my sad ability. The challenge is to beat me and any others who join in this challenge at this race. For those willing to do so we will come up with a bet that is worthy of a year's worth of training. I want no excuses of why you lost and trust me you will lose. Be wary as I will taunt you pathetic training and I will be keeping an eye on your training log. So anyone up to the challenge?
2013 Goals:
I will of course let you out of the challenge should you not be able to get into the race due to the craziness of sighnups.
Not in Chicago
You suck. You should just quit. Jackass. Welcome back.
Milktruck say relentless
I really really want to run Chicago someday. Can you arrange for wonderful weather, BCR?
Proofread carefully to see if you any words out.
" ..that corner has narrowed to a half-nekkid egyptian wandering about in the cold new jersey nighttime."~ R2E
Mercifully, i do not qualify for such a challenge.
You have a year to train. You qualify if you have the balls to accept! I know Nads does not.
IIlene if you come to Chicago it is mandatory that we find a RA'er bar and finally meet each other. I promise good weather and a good time. Even if Trent shows up I still promise good weather but maybe not a good time ;-)
I have never had the desire to run Chicago yet. Big Cities make me unhappy - Just look at my time in Nashville.
2013 Goals ~ Mar < 3:00, 5M < 29, 10k < 35
I totally get where you are coming from. The NY Marathon would be a nightmare for me even on a normal year unlike this year.
However, small races can suck as well. No one to run with for miles, no fan support, less medical help if you get hurt. Both have good and bad things. However, Chicago is one of the few bigger ones were it starts and finishes close. Plus they say it is flat which is perfect for those wanting to race other people. That and I can actually get local people to travel to it unlike the Monkey.
I don't like people all that much - I like running alone - I do not need anyone blowing smoke up my ass - I do not care if I die. So what's the upside of the mega-marathon?
Now if someone would take the stress out of Chicago and drink beer with me afterward - I would consider it.
However, small races can suck as well. No one to run with for miles, no fan support, less medical help if you get hurt.
Just make sure it's the year Trent is somewhere else. I swear the two times I ran, he was around somewhere. I don't do well in hot conditions.
Chicago is the only one of the really big city marathons (in the US) that I have any desire to ever run if I ever un-retire from marathons. The fact that its a loop course on wide city streets makes the logistics manageable for a huge race, and of course it's a blazing fast course. The fact that Chicago is a great city to visit is nice too.
Runners run.
Well get off your ass and come to Chicago then. You know you want to! Get back on the Marathon horse.
Um I already promised good weather with or without Trent. This race is Trent proof!
I've run Chicago twice and both years the weather was absolutely perfect. There was supposed to be 100% rain and 50 MPH winds during MCM, but it all waited until I finished. Let me know if you're interested in running Chicago in 2013 and I'll register. I'm the anti-Trent.
This race is Trent proof!
You will rue this day

When I visited California last year, I was infinitely jealous you could buy 9 avocados for $1. Unfortunately, we're a little less fortunate over here, but that doesn't mean they're any less delicious. Although they are high in fat, it's the healthy kind of fat that your body needs. Like olive oil, avocadoes boost levels of HDL (the "good" cholesterol). Avocadoes provide all 18 essential amino acids necessary for the body to form a complete protein. Unlike the protein in steak, which is difficult for most people to digest, avocado protein is readily absorbed by the body because avocadoes also contain fiber.
They also provide a combination of Vitamins C and E, carotenoids, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids which all help guard against inflammation. This means avocadoes can help prevent or mitigate against both osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis. As if we needed more reasons to eat these delicious ingredients!
Pick avocados that are a dark green colour, and that gently give when you squeeze. They shouldn't be overly soft (unless you plan on using them ASAP) and avocados that are lighter in colour and harder will take longer to ripen.
This week, we'll be testing out the following recipes to add to our inventory of go-to recipes.
- Pineapple Avocado Salsa (Life's Ambrosia)
- Chilled California Avocado Soup with Coconut Milk Recipe (Cookin' Canuck)
- Baked Avocado Fries with Chipotle Mayo (Rachel Cook)
We're always on the hunt for your favorite recipes, so make sure to drop us a line with your favorite uses for avocados.

These are the cheap model. Does it's job initially but it will loose it's grip fast.
You must have some heavy duty eyebrows, bro.
Real men use tweezers instead of bikini wax.
I can use a tweeter to pull out splinters when woodworking. Although I suppose a blowtorch would do that just as well.
Any reason why these say eyebrow? Will they work on splinters?
Joe, these have a flat edge, broad tip, while a pair with a tapered/pointed tip seems to work better for splinter extraction by not needing as large a hole dug into your skin if the whole thing is embedded.
I suppose you could grind or file them down to a point but it seems easier to just buy that type.

U.S. attorney: Crundwell will plead guilty today
ROCKFORD – Ousted Dixon comptroller Rita Crundwell will plead guilty this morning to federal wire fraud in connection with a case in which she is accused of bilking the city of millions of dollars over two decades, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a news release.
Crundwell, 59, will appear at 9 a.m. before U.S. District Judge Philip Reinhard. She faces up to 20 years in prison and up to a $250,000 fine.
"It's good news because pleading guilty will allow the Marshal Service to liquidate all the sales and the city can start seeing restitution," Dixon Mayor Jim Burke said Tuesday. "We can be happy it's not dragging on and on."

Girls basketball: Coronado pulls away from Carroll in second half
By Justin Thomas, firstname.lastname@example.com
For two-plus quarters, Carroll's girls basketball team matched scores with the No. 5 team in the state, Lubbock Coronado.
But the Lady Dragons couldn't keep pace in the second half, as the Lady Mustangs pulled away for a 62-48 victory to eliminate Carroll for the second consecutive season.
"We just couldn't trade buckets with them in the second half," said Teri Morrison, Carroll head coach. "I thought we came in with a good plan and were up three at halftime. But we just couldn't score or get enough stops in the fourth quarter. We gave a great effort, though."
"[The Dimba's] are really good players but I thought we played them well," Morrison said. "They run a triple-post offense that's really a power package but we managed to hang with them for a while. In the third quarter, it gradually began to slip away and we had to start fouling late."
The Lady Dragons trailed by six with three minutes remaining but couldn't get any closer.
Kami Mickens paced the offense with 18 points, while Madison Drescher and Kennedy Leonard scored 10 apiece. Gretchen Morrison followed with eight points. Leonard also contributed 11 assists for Carroll.
"We were running our system well early and were doing a great job of sharing the ball," Morrison said. "We had a nice balance but in the second half, I think we froze up a little bit and were maybe even a little too unselfish," Morrison said. "We weren't sharing the ball as well but when we got a good shot, we didn't always take it. We needed a little more scoring from everyone."
Morrison added the team adjusted well on the boards in the first half but gave up too many second-chance points in the final two quarters.
Looking ahead, Carroll graduates just two seniors and will look to reach at least the third round of the postseason for a fourth consecutive season.
"It's always good to not go backwards," Morrison said. "The girls did a great job to get back to the third round. We'll lose Kami and Danielle (Lepicier), but we have four starters returning. We'll keep trucking to next year."

I couldn't hold back the tears as I watched her slowly slip away. She was so weak that she couldn't talk to me anymore, but she made it very clear that she could hear all that I was saying. She found my hand under the sheets of her bed and gave it a big squeeze. It seems small, but it meant the world to me. I will never ever forget that goodbye.
I will also never forget how many people prayed for us in the coming weeks and while she was sick. It was completely overwhelming at times, but so touching. I remember thinking to myself after the funeral..."I didn't know that so many people actually cared about our family." It was absolutely amazing to watch how people came out of their way just to show their support. I will never forget coming home from the hospital that night and reading all of your comments on my post. I felt so loved and still remember crying my eyes out after reading like the third or fourth comment. I still can't get over that so many of you put time into making this special card for me either. I still read it sometimes when I need encouragement.

In recent time, there are many different ways to lose weight and people around the world are now having got the chance to pick the best way to lose weight among these. Though it is possible to lose weight without dieting, but this can never be considered as the best way to lose weight. Diet is the key factor that plays the direct role regarding the size, shape and growth of the physical structure of our body.

Tired of waiting for your SPICE to finish?
Tired of waiting for your SPICE to finish?
Anyone who has ever had to simulate a SERDES interface knows how long it take to run a couple hundred bits through a SPICE model. Hours. Sometimes you have to kick it off overnight. And if you want to do some solution space exploration, probably one of the main purposes for running your simulation, it could take you a whole week of sims. I mean, you could take the time that your sim is running to go talk to your co-workers, but some of those guys aren't all that fun to talk to. ;-) But there are better ways.
One of the best options is to use FastEye in HyperLynx. It will run on your existing SPICE models, and gives you a lot more information than just your standard old bit-by-bit SPICE sim. It uses pulse and step responses to characterize your SERDES channel and then uses that information to generate your eye diagrams. And it generates eyes not only for the number of bits you are running, but also your target bit error rates. Try simulating a trillion bits in SPICE and see how that works out… waiting half a million years for your sim to finish isn't all that fun. Especially if you don't have solitaire installed on your machine.
You can read more about some of the new advancements in SERDES simulation in my recent article in PCD&F at:

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
Can massage be done during your chemo treatment? Will "sea bands" or ginger gum help with nausea?
Jun Mao, MD, MSCE, Assistant Professor of Family Medicine and Community Health at Penn Medicine, responds:
You can definitely incorporate massage during treatment and there are some studies to suggest massage helps distress, pain, insomnia and fatigue.
The research on "sea bands" and "ginger gum" are inconclusive. Ginger probably has the most research and has been shown to help with nausea in general, so it may be helpful for nausea related to cancer treatment as well. The ACS has a nice article on it. It can be found in teas, gum, candies, drinks and supplements.
Sea bands work with acupressure- that is they apply pressure to an area on the wrist, known as PC6, that has been shown to help with nausea relief. They are helpful for some women during pregnancy and may be helpful for cancer treatment related nausea.
With that said, given both are so cheap and easy to implement and safe, my recommendation is try it. If it is helpful, that's great.

Product DescriptionFrom evolutionary icons to the uniqueness of planet Earth, from irreducible complexity to the kalam cosmological argument, Lee Strobel gives full rein to his keen analytical mind in addressing these issues and more. But don't expect an inaccessible tome of arcane scientific terms; Strobel's years of newspaper reporting give the book a conversational style. Relying on transcriptions of his interviews with experts in the pertinent fields, he tells the incredible stories about the hard science behind what some have termed creationism. Extensively researched, this book should be a classic apologetic text for years to come.

Visit Lee's website at: www.leestrobel.com. SPANISH BIO: Lee Strobel tiene una licenciatura en periodismo de la Universidad de Missouri y una maestria en estudio de leyes de la Universidad Yale. Fue el galardonado editor legal del periodico Chicago Tribune y esceptico espiritual hasta el ano 1981. Es autor de exitos de ventas del New York Times de casi veinte libros y ha sido entrevistado por numerosos programas nacionales de television, incluyendo 20/20 de la cadena ABC, Fox News y CNN. Cuatro de sus libros han ganado el premio Medalla de oro y uno de ellos fue el ganador del premio Libro cristiano del ano 2005 (el cual escribio junto a Garry Poole). Lee sirvio como pastor de ensenanza en las Iglesias Willow Creek y Saddleback. Ademas, contribuye como editor y columnista de la revista 'Outreach'. el y su esposa, Leslie, residen en Colorado. Para mas informacion, visite: www.leestrobel.com
Publisher's WeeklyStrobel, whose apologetics titles The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith have enjoyed strong popularity among evangelicals, approaches creation/evolution issues in the same simple and energetic style. The format will be familiar to readers of previous Case books: Strobel visits with scholars and researchers and works each interview into a topical outline. Although Strobel does not interview any "hostile" witnesses, he exposes readers to the work of some major origins researchers (including Jonathan Wells, Stephen Meyer and Michael Behe) and theistic philosophers (including William Lane Craig and J. P. Moreland). Strobel claims no expertise in science or metaphysics, but as an interviewer he makes this an asset, prodding his sources to translate jargon and provide illustrations for their arguments. At times, the interview format loses momentum as seams begin to show between interview recordings, rewrites, research notes and details imported from his subjects' CVs (here, Strobel's efforts at buffing his subjects' smart-guy credentials can become a little too intense). The most curious feature of the book-not uncommon in the origins literature but unusual in a work of Christian apologetics-is that biblical narratives and images of creation, and the significance of creation for Christian theology, receive such brief mention. Still, this solid introduction to the most important topics in origins debates is highly accessible and packs a good argumentative punch. Forecast: Strobel's books The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith won Gold Medallion awards and sold into the seven figures. This month, also watch for his The Case for Easter to argue for the historical authenticity of the Resurrection Copyright 2004 Publishers Weekly

From #booties to thigh highs at AMICLUBWEAR ... http://t.co/kq9e8U87sV
Get Your Groove On
The House of Blues Los Angeles
If you are a lover of music or just looking for an awesome place to hangout, look no further than the House of Blues.
The House of Blues is a legendary chain of concert halls and restaurants with venues in major US markets. The first House of Blues venue was opened in 1992 by Isaac Tigrett at Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was initially financed by, among others, Aerosmith, Dan Aykroyd, James Belushi, Paul Shaffer, the late River Phoenix, and Harvard University. The original location has since ceased operations but several other venues were established over the years across the United States. -
Stargazing at the Tropicana Bar
In Los Angeles, there is more than one way to stargaze; and there is no better place to gaze at proverbial and real stars than at the Tropicana Pool Bar.
Located at the famous Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, the Tropicana Pool Bar is a gorgeous retreat right in the middle of a bustling city. The bar surrounds the famed David Hackney pool of the hotel. Set amidst verdant shrubs and towering palm trees, the Tropicana Bar features cozy fireplaces, and luxurious VIP seats all situated amongst the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotels' famous elite cabana rooms. -
Legendary Hollywood Hotspot: Avalon
Los Angeles boasts of hundreds of hot nightclubs and sizzling hot spots, but if you are looking for the ultimate clubbing experience, Avalon is the place to be. Located in the famous corner of Hollywood and Vine, the legendary establishment has been the go-to place for the best in music and entertainment for every decade since it opened in 1927.
Experience the Hamptons Summer Lifestyle in Hollywood?
Summer is right before us, which means it's time to hit the beach and work on your tan or, pack your bags and go on vacation.
If you're looking to cool down or do some fun activities, Los Angeles has no shortage of lovely beaches. For some L.A. natives though, it can get unbearably hot in the summer. That's why many affluent L.A. residents take to the East Coast to spend summer in the Hamptons, where else? But for some who, for one reason or another, could not just drop everything and take a flight to the Big Apple, they could take their beautiful selves to the Colony.

2013 Self-Study Instructions for NASPAA Accreditation Released COPRA is pleased to release the 2013 Self-Study Instructions for NASPAA accreditation. This is the official document that outlines the data requirements for accreditation and provides definitions, a basis of judgment, and illustrative examples on each of the standards. The revisions reflect clarifications based on the experiences of the programs having completed accreditation under the 2009 standards, as well as some updates to data fields, and even a few deletions. Most changes have previously been announced in COPRA's policy statements in 2012-2013, and are now being collected into the official documentation. A summary of the changes in the 2013 release and the Self-Study Instructions themselves can be found here.

We are excited to not only be able to supplement current in-person training and to reach interested site visitors through the new online course, but also to provide programs with explanatory videos to improve their familiarity with the standards. Many programs have found that the online resources are helpful to the faculty and staff of programs during all phases of accreditation. The course videos walk viewers through each of the 2009 Standards, individually – clarifying, emphasizing, and explaining how to interpret the standards. The video on Standard 5 is especially helpful in describing COPRA's expectations and how to best approach competency assessment.

The paper would take a comparative perspective looking at the multitude of ways in which various programs are implementing competencies based assessment. For more information go here.
COPRA White Papers and Policy Statement COPRA has released two white papers regarding early case law and emerging views on academic and professional qualifications, and thresholds for competency assessment. You can view the white papers here. COPRA has also issued a policy statement based on COPRA decisions at its June 2012 meeting. The policy statement can be found here.

New Mentor Program Announced COPRA has enthusiastically implemented a mentorship program for programs seeking NASPAA accreditation for the first time, in order to ensure that new applicants have additional support in their efforts to achieve accreditation.

(2nd version - note title change)
Spinning for spoils
with crafts of cunning,
an ambush is set;
taut and finely tuned
like a fisherman with a net
at the ready,
Poised, with twitchy legs
fused on filaments,
expectation builds
for the quiver of silver…
Strands vibrate, adrenalin on fire,
faster than a flash
she towers over meaty expire
as the captive strains to escape.
A death coat, spun,
and trapped within
the catch is hauled back to the den
and consumed, then discarded
like a used, empty tin.
(Ist version)
In the rapids of life,
lurks a small population
of fine net makers
with a craft so capable
you can hardly see the ties
in their netting.
Spinning for spoils
with crafts of cunning,
an ambush is set;
taut and finely tuned
like a fisherman
with a rod at the ready,
poised for a catch.
Her twitchy legs
clasp the line
as she waits…
and waits…
for the quiver of a thread.
A rush of chemicals
race through her body
when the trap vibrates,
and faster than a flash
she towers over her meal
with eight eyes palpitating
as the fly flaps
and wriggles to escape.
is more secure than Alcatraz
when a death cocoon is spun
that binds the prisoner
tighter than a straightjacket.
Immovable within,
the catch is carried back to the hole
and consumed,
then discarded
like an empty food packet.

'At Least I Know Where I'll Sleep Tonight' — Homeless Vet Gets Apartment
Ernie Maas, 61, has been homeless in Arlington County for at least the past two years.
A 61-year-old U.S. Navy veteran who has survived on the streets of Arlington for at least the past two years has a lot to be thankful for today. With the help of the Arlington Street People's Assistance Network and others, Ernie Maas now has a home. "It's great to know there are so many good people in the world," Maas said in his new bedroom Wednesday. "Since I served my country, I feel good about that — I was serving for good people." Volunteers and staff with A-SPAN and others had just finished moving in donated furniture and other items, along with a few bags of clothes and personal effects Maas had managed to collect and keep with him over the years — an old high school yearbook and boot camp book among them, he said.

Pistorius 'shot model through door'
09:05, Feb 19 2013
Paralympic star Oscar Pistorius shot dead his model girlfriend through a closed bathroom door, a court has heard.
The gold-medal winner, known as the Blade Runner for his prosthetic legs, appeared in a South African court for his second appearance over the death of Reeva Steenkamp.
Prosecutor Gerrie Nel told the hearing that Pistorius shot Ms Steenkamp four times inside his Pretoria home on Thursday.
Pistorius, 26, was formally charged with the premeditated murder of his girlfriend.
Mr Nel said the victim arrived at the house between 5pm and 6pm the night before she was killed at 3am. He said she was locked inside the small bathroom and was unarmed.
Story continues
The prosecutor also said the athlete, who broke down in tears during the hearing, had not provided investigators with his own version of what happened.
Barry Roux, defending, said Ms Steenkamp was not murdered, and there were a number of cases where men have shot members of their own family through doors after mistaking them for burglars.
He also suggested that Pistorius broke the bathroom door down to help Ms Steenkamp after the shooting.

The List: La. Tech's Sonny Dykes
By: Razorback Nation
Updated: November 12, 2012
Sonny Dykes has been the head coach at Louisiana Tech since 2010.
He's already led the Bulldogs to one Western Athletic Conference championship, and appears well on his way to another this year, as Louisiana Tech carries a 9-1 record this season.
La Tech is currently ranked 20th in the BCS standings.
Dykes, son of long-time Texas Tech football coach Spike Dykes, led the Bulldogs to an 8-5 record on their way to the Poinsettia Bowl, where they lost to the TCU Horned Frogs.
So should Sonny Dykes be at the top of The List?
To see what the panel has to say, watch the embedded video.
