Q&A with Guard Kim Buffum

The UC San Diego women's basketball team is out of the gate quick in 2005-06, winning six of its first eight games. One of the early standouts has been junior Kim Buffum who poured in a career-high 27 points in a win at Cal State Bakersfield. With UCSD not scheduled to play again until a January 6-7 homestand, the co-captain recently took time during the holiday break to discuss new Head Coach Janell Jones and the current season's results to date.

With UCSD not scheduled to play again until a January 6-7 homestand, the co-captain recently took time during the holiday break to discuss new Head Coach Janell Jones and the current season's results to date.
Q- Is your approach this season different from previous years?
BUFFUM- I have a larger leadership role this year. We have some 18-year-olds on the team and I am one of the oldest at 22. With three seniors on last year's team, I was able to learn a lot from them. As one of the captains this year, I am one of the links between the coaches and the team. The three co-captains are really the only returnees who saw a lot of minutes last season. It is important for us to help our team through the games and practices because we have experienced it before.
Q- What do you like about Head Coach Janell Jones?
BUFFUM- She is just an excellent person on and off the court. She has more than just the basketball aspect going for our team. We are really close now. We do a lot of things together off the court, team building activities. She has established a great relationship with each one of us. If Coach yells at us, we know it is only to help us. Janell is the greatest thing to happen to this program. She is an amazing person and coach who is going to take this program to the next level.
Q- The eight three-pointers and 27 points scored against
BUFFUM- That performance was the best of my life. I made the first one, and then they just kept going in. I had never made that many three-pointers in a game. It was a memorable night because I did it against the pre-season pick to win the CCAA, and helped our team to victory.
Q- What is easier for you... a 15 foot jumper or a three-pointer?
BUFFUM- Back me up. Definitely the three-point line. Sometimes I miss a lay-up and tell myself, "I can make it from half-court, but cannot make an easy lay-up." I did a lot of shooting as a kid and thought it was so cool if I could make shots from further away than my brothers. Sometimes on the court, you lose track of where exactly you are. I just seem to be more accurate from behind the three-point line than a little in front of it.
Q- Is there a favorite gym that you like to shoot in?
BUFFUM- Our gym. I love playing in RIMAC. I think we have the best facility in the conference.
Q- Is there a part of your game that you are really working on improving?
BUFFUM- In the beginning it was defense. Coach would come to me and say, "Kim, last game you had no steals." Then, that next game I got five steals. Right now, I would say rebounding. After the last couple games, I was the only one to have one rebound and coach would ask, "Where are your boards?" Then the next game I had six rebounds. Janell looks for what I have to work on and tells me where I need to improve. She is really good at that and right now, to answer your question, I am trying to step up my defense and rebounding. I am already an offensive type player.
Q- Is having three-and-a-half weeks before the next game difficult?
BUFFUM- It's a little crazy because we had three games in five days and then nothing. Then three games in five days again. The break will be good for our team. We had a strong preseason and played some strong teams. That exposed to us what we need to work on. The time off gives us a chance to really work on improving our gameplans, heading into the conference games.
Q- The next UCSD women's basketball games are home against
BUFFUM- I am really looking forward to getting back into action against those teams. Our conference is so tough. Anyone can win on any given night, so we will not be overlooking a determined Cal State Stanislaus team.
Q- Did the team have a holiday gift exchange?
BUFFUM- We just had one the other day. We call it secret pal. This year was the most successful year because nobody knew who had them. Our coach cooked us dinner--it was great.
Q- Have there been any funny stories with this team?
BUFFUM- There are so many funny things that I do not have time to share them all. We have several characters on this team and there is never a dull day. On the road, we enjoy joking about Coach Jones and her driving.
Q- Do you have a favorite basketball memory?
BUFFUM- Right now, it would have to be the win over Cal State Bakersfield. We were going up against one of the top-teams in the CCAA and we went to their place and won. It was a complete team effort. We had three players reach season-highs, point-wise, and four players in double figures.
Q- Do you have any players you look up to?
BUFFUM- I look up to Hillary Hansen on our team. She just works so hard and I have all the respect for her. I also look up to a couple of our former players, Nicole Bromley and Ali Ginn. They were players that give everything they had.
Q- Is there a lot of basketball experience in your family?
BUFFUM- Actually not. My family is athletic though. My brothers, Geoff and Richard, they both played football. Richard played high school football and Geoff was a quarterback and won a National Championship at Azusa Pacific. I have a very supportive family. We would go to each other's games during each season.
Q- You were president of your high school's sign language club. Have you had a chance to continue using sign language?
BUFFUM- I would have loved to have kept it up in college. I was fluent in my junior year of high school. I fulfilled my language requirement in high school because I did not want to take it in college because those classes are five days a week. Sign Language is something that I will always have, I am just not as quick now. I think it is the most beautiful language in the world. I have not given up the idea of doing something with it later.

Get the Facts on "Dollars and Sense" during National Consumer Protection Week- March 7-13, 2010
ATLANTA, GA – As part of National Consumer Protection Week (NCPW), March 7 – 13, 2010, the Governor's Office of Consumer Affairs (OCA) encourages all Georgians to become savvy consumers. This year's theme - Dollars & Sense: Rated "A" for All Ages - highlights the importance of using good consumer sense at every stage of life, from grade school to retirement.
"The message of National Consumer Protection Week 2010 is simple: It's never too early or too late to become a more informed and empowered consumer," said Joe Doyle, Administrator of the Governor's Office of Consumer Affairs. "Regardless of your age or financial situation, there are useful lessons to learn about spending and managing money wisely. We encourage everyone to visit our websites – www.ConsumerEd.com and www.Consumer.ga.gov -- for tips about making smarter decisions in the marketplace, knowing your rights as a consumer, avoiding fraud and scams, and understanding key consumer concepts, such as credit, identity theft, money management, and negotiating major purchases."
In recognition of National Consumer Protection Week, the Governor's Office of Consumer Affairs offers the following advice to Georgians on being better informed consumers and avoiding fraud:
1. Used Car Purchases – A lot of consumers shopping for used cars end up with vehicles that don't perform as promised or whose contracts contain fees or terms that the buyer was not aware of. Remember to follow these tips when shopping for a used car:
- View advertising with a cautious eye and do not make assumptions. Look for fine print, asterisks, limitations or conditions to the offer. Remember: "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
- Run a vehicle history report to find out accident and repair history, the number of previous owners, recalls, whether the vehicle was salvaged or in a flood, and to verify the accuracy of the odometer reading.
- Have the automobile inspected by a qualified mechanic that you trust.
- Be sure before you sign your contract. There is no "cooling off" period when it comes to car purchases. What's more, all vehicles are sold AS IS unless otherwise specified in writing. So unless you have a specific written promise or purchase a service contract, the seller may not be liable for any problems the vehicle has.
2. Debt Collectors – If you are being hassled by debt collectors you do have rights and recourse. While you cannot erase debt you actually owe, if you write a letter to a debt collector requesting that they stop contacting you, they must refrain from doing so except to acknowledge that there will be no further contact or to notify you that they intend to take some specific action. If you do not owe the debt in question, you should advise the collector of that in writing and pull a copy of your credit reports to make sure that an identity thief has not opened up an account in your name. If a debt collector continues to contact you after you have requested that he stop, you can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission by calling 1-877-FTC-HELP or visiting www.ftc.gov.
3. Credit Repair & Debt Management Companies – Companies that promise to erase bad credit, remove bankruptcies and bad loans from your credit report, and legally create a new credit identity cannot live up to their promises. Consumers who fall prey to these false testimonies may lose hundreds or thousands of dollars without any improvement to their credit. Remember: no one can legally remove correct information from your credit report, even if it negatively reflects on you.
If you need professional help managing or getting out of debt, there are legitimate companies who can assist you. Georgia consumers should know their rights by being aware of the laws that regulate the activities of these companies:
- A debt adjuster may not charge you a fee of more than 7.5 percent of the amount you pay monthly for distribution to your creditors.
- All funds received from you, minus authorized fees, must be disbursed to creditors within 30 days of receiving them.
- A separate trust account must be maintained for your funds, and it must be audited annually.
- Copies of these audits and proof of insurance coverage must be filed annually with the Governor's Office of Consumer Affairs.
- For a list of reputable debt adjustment companies, you can contact the National Foundation for Credit Counseling at www.nfcc.org or by calling 1-800-388-2227.
4. Sweepstakes/Lotteries – Phony lotteries and sweepstakes, many of them foreign, promise the participant that he or she has already won a prize and just needs to send in a check to pay for taxes, handling fees, etc. Sometimes the mail piece includes the sweepstakes winnings in the form of a check, which, of course, turns out to be fraudulent. It is illegal to charge someone for a prize. So, it's simple: if you are asked to send in money in order to enter a sweepstakes or collect your prize, it's a scam.
5. Home Repairs – Many Georgians are hiring contractors to do home repair/home improvement work, only to find that the work is done poorly or that the costs exceed the agreed-upon price. To avoid being taken advantage of by a disreputable contractor:
- Obtain written bids from at least three different contractors.
- Make sure you get a written contract that includes the scope of work to be done, the starting and completion dates, the cost of the total project and all warranties.
- Ask for references and check them out.

Parents of prom night....
Just thought I would give you a peek behind the scenes. This is what the parents look like.... Jesse is dating our very good friends daughter, Meagen. As you can see our hair is not done and we are in warm up's. No it's not fresh makeup on our faces just smile's. Watching those two sweet babies going down that driveway, priceless. It's moments like these that I will forever remember. After they were out of sight we headed out to eat. Yes, dressed in our Momma attire. Im sure we will get very little sleep if any tonight. Lisa and I will call each other many times Im sure. Susie

Hi Susie, my husband was out of town and the kids were keeping me hoppin'. Dance..golf...dirty house..you get the picture. I had stopped by and saw your handsome boy I hope he had a wonderful prom. I use oil base glaze and oil base stain. For the cabinets I did 2Tablespoons of glaze to 3tablespoons of stain (pecan was the color) it's a pretty good chocolate color but a walnut glaze would give you an even richer look. So I guess that would be a 2 to 3 ratio...just mix til ya like it. I hope to see more of your tassels soon. Hugs PaulaReplyDelete

A New Innovative Approach to Hair Loss: hims
For many years, product options for hair loss prevention and treatment were stuck in the closet, expensive, often-ineffective products in grim, uninviting packaging -- a source of shame rather than part of a man's daily wellness regimen.
Hims is changing that paradigm. Through its discreet, effective, easy-to-use program, this innovative brand is helping men do battle with hair loss using the most effective treatments available. It's part of a personal wellness brand, developed to help men feel their best all the time.
Hims founder Andrew Dudum discusses advances in hair loss prevention and treatment as well as the brand's unique approach: one that integrates strong medical expertise and consumer education, with attractive, affordable products that are not only effective,but easy to use as part of a daily regimen.
When developing hims, the personal wellness platform for men, what inspired you to include hair loss in your platform?
Hims is a trusted resource for men to understand the options they have when it comes to preventative care and how to be their best self. The stigma around baldness -- which isn't an unattractive or bad thing -- largely comes from the lack of conversation around men's care.
After realizing that so many of my peers had questions about hair loss, I realized there needed to be more access to education and broader awareness that most men will face these concerns in their lifetime. Hims exists so men can make more informed decisions about their health and hair loss, no matter what they choose.
Fighting Hair Loss is a Young Man's Game (too)
While we all know hair loss is relatively common among men, before developing these products, did you realize the rate was as high as 85 percent for men over 50?
What was even more shocking to me was that 66 percent percent of men experience hair loss by age 35, and for one-quarter of these men, hair loss begins before age 21. It's so common among younger guys, yet most are hesitant to talk about their situation.
What are some aspects of the hims' platform that make it unique in comparison to other treatment programs/options for men fighting hair loss? Does hims hair loss program address needs your competitors are missing?
Hims' offerings are unlike anything on the market right now. We're building a brand that's not only convenient and more affordable, but really aesthetically pleasing.
The hims experience is special -- from the moment our customers engage with the brand online, to their interaction with our medical network, and then to the product packaging itself, we're creating a more personal experience and impactful products that men don't feel like they have to hide from friends, roommates, partners, etc. We're not just a hair loss brand or an erectile dysfunction brand; we're a men's wellness brand.
Treatments Have Come a Long Way, Baby
For men who have tried hair loss treatments in the past, how have treatments improved in the past few years? Why is now the time to try hims?
We're really focused on building a thoughtful community around men's personal care, one that emphasizes education, top-notch medical expertise and preventative solutions in an approachable way.
Our products are created with the industry's leading, medical-grade formulas that are scientifically proven to work; all prescriptions are backed by the FDA and approved by medical professionals. Hims products feel and smell so good you'll forget it's actually medicine. Also, our aesthetic is different from what's on the market right now. Guys primarily face branding with dark reds, blues and greens with mahogany accents, and we were adamant from the get-go that our products should look different.

Marijuana regulation heads to Colorado Capitol
The Associated Press
DENVER (AP) – Marijuana legalization has prompted an enormous amount of debate in the four months since it was approved in Colorado, but only Friday did the drug get consideration from the people who will decide how it should be grown, sold and taxed.
Ad ad-hoc committee of 10 House and Senate members started work reviewing 165 pages of recommended regulations from a task force that worked for more than three months to suggest rules for the newly legal drug.
The suggested rules cover the entire product cycle of pot – from how marijuana should be grown and labeled to how to tax the drug and spend the proceeds. The 10 lawmakers on the House-Senate pot committee will ultimately suggest a bill for the full Legislature.
Marijuana remains illegal under federal law, and Colorado has not yet heard whether the federal government will sue to block the marijuana law. The voter-approved pot measure requires pot regulations by July, a deadline that has prompted Colorado to move ahead planning the drug's regulation.
No decisions were made Friday. Instead, the panel of six Democrats and four Republicans reviewed recommendations from the Amendment 64 Task Force, which consisted of pot advocates, law enforcement and government regulators.
"We're going to have a lot of discussion, a lot of debate of what should or shouldn't be included, said Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver and head of the marijuana committee.
Among the recommendations:
– The task force suggested Colorado not bother trying to ban non-residents from buying the drug. That would open to door for marijuana tourism, an idea that makes many lawmakers cringe. But the constitutional amendment approved by voters last year makes marijuana in small amounts legal for adults over 21, not just Coloradans. The task force suggested new signs at airports and on highways reminding visitors they break the law if they take pot across state lines.
– The task force recommended a 15 percent excise tax on marijuana, the maximum allowed under the amendment. The task force further suggested a new marijuana sales tax to be determined by lawmakers. Both taxes would need voter approval.
– The task force asked for state health or agriculture regulators to set standards for which pesticides, herbicides and fungicides would be permitted on marijuana. The task force also suggested potency testing and labels to show consumers the relative strength of the psychoactive ingredient in pot products.
– The task force said children need to be protected by requiring pot to be sold in child-proof containers. The task force also recommended advertising limits to curb youth exposure to marijuana messages.
Not all of this year's marijuana regulations will come from the House-Senate marijuana committee. The Legislature is already considering a blood-limit marijuana standard for drivers, an analogy to blood-alcohol limits. The Legislature has tried and failed three times to set driving limits for pot.
Start a dialogue, stay on topic and be civil.

Impeachment: Democrats in Danger of Overplaying Hand
There's a good chance, if Obama and his desperate White House political team continue to fan the flames of impeachment, they might have a bonafide conflagration on their hands just a few more executive orders down the road.Read More
Desperate Democrats Take On Obama
Democrats are trying desperately to distance themselves from the President especially in places like West Virginia. Democratic Senate candidate, and Obama supporter, Natalie Tennant, put out an ad where she actually simulates shutting off the lights at the White House to tell Obama: Stop messing with coal.Read More
Pavlich Nails Liberal Hypocrisy in War on Women Tactic
My latest from the Washington Times:
Think the "War on Women" meme is passe? Run its course? Think again.
"Turn on a TV in Colorado and you might assume there are no issues more important to state voters than abortion rights, access to contraception and the definition of personhood." That according to an article about the contentious U.S. Senate race there in Real Clear Politics this week.
If it strikes one as odd that a Colorado race, or any of the many U.S. congressional races where it is happening, would be obsessing over "women's health" issues, given the abundance of crises facing our nation at the moment, Katie Pavlich can explain the conundrum. She does so with clarity, passion and an overwhelming abundance of evidence in her hard-hitting new book, "Assault and Flattery: The Truth About the Left and Their War on Women."
The author writes, "The playbook [for the 2014 elections] is simple. War on women. Birth control. Republicans better be ready to counter it …"
Making this wake-up call all the more urgent: The GOP establishment's apparent readiness to blow it again. Case in point: an original interview the author conducted in 2013 with the epitome of the establishment himself, Mitt Romney. To the question of how he could have handled the War on Women attacks more effectively, Mr. Romney responded, "Well, there are a lot of outrageous lies I just don't think women believe, so I'm not sure how damaging they are."
US Looking for a Chance to Bail on Israel?
After the draft of of proposed cease fire agreement was leaked (interesting in itself), Israeli news media responded with withering attacks on Kerry. The US State Department jumped at the chance to condemn Israel for those attacks, even though the attacks on Kerry came from the media--not the Israeli government.Read More

McAuliffe, Herring Going Rogue in Richmond
Our Founders knew that renegade public officials, intentionally bypassing the proper limits on their authority, endanger our republican form of government. Mr. McAuliffe and Mr. Herring, by ignoring the will of the people as expressed by their direct vote (as in the constitutional amendment on marriage) or through their representatives, are doing just that. Going rogue and replacing the people's wisdom with their personal political agendas. That's just not how it's done — not in Virginia, and not in America.Read More

Palin Nails It: American Women Cheap Dates? No more.
Well, no one does it better than Sarah Palin. She called out Democrats for "demeaning women" and treating them like cheap dates with the fictional War on Women, while giving good swift kick in the pants to Republicans. She said they need to start articulating the values of true liberation espoused by their party: independence, a strong work ethic, family, faith and freedom. "If the boys are not up to the challenge, conservative women are happy to lead the charge." Tony Lee at Breitbart.com gives the best recap of the speech I've seen, so check it out: Palin Slams Liberals for Treating Women Like Cheap Dates.
Please, Don't Say Anything Stupid
We conservatives are getting creamed with this War on Women lie and yet we sit back waiting for the Left to get tired or ashamed of bashing us over the head with it. As long as it's working for them, they're not going to stop. And trust me: it's working. It's high time we fight back.Read More

Tomorrow, April 1, Superintendent of Schools James Morse will meet informally with the selectmen in the Town Hall at 7 p.m.
As usual, all interested persons are welcome to attend.
When the selectmen met on March 22, they expected Eric Fiegenbaum to join them to discuss public wireless access for town use.However, the discussion went beyond that since Nancy Kach had contacted the town office and left a message asking if some system of contacting residents could be set up.
While there will not be an immediate response to Kach's inquiry, the topic was discussed and Fiegenbaum will be bringing in suggestions not only for sending the town records to the clouds, but also relative to town-wide dissemination of news.
The selectmen are in the process of filling positions on the various boards.Those interested in serving should contact the town office at 742-5131.
There is also a need for a part-time, paid, custodian at the Town Hall.
When PSNH sets out to trim and remove trees along Cherry Lane and Nute Road come summer, there will be plenty of observers along the route.
Residents of these two scenic roads filled the small meeting room to capacity on March 20 when the Planning Board held a hearing on the issue.
By state law, trees and brush along scenic roads cannot be disturbed without a public hearing being held.Con sequently, Bob Berner, PSNH's regional arborist, brought the utilitily's plan before the Planning Board.He reported that there are four trees, two on each road in question, which need to be removed since they could be hazardous.On Nute Road there are a dead birch and a dying maple; on Cherry Lane, an unidentified dead tree and a dying black birch.
There was concern expressed by several residents that the "umbrella" over the road be maintained, to which Berner responded that "...on scenic roads PSNH tries to relax our standard."In answer to another inquiry, Berner reported that the tree-trimming is done on a four-year cycle.
Jeanette Fones sought guidance in assuring that the homeowners whose trees are cut would be able to harvest the wood.She was told that the owners should react quickly to remove the cut wood or it might disappear.
Postcards are sent to owners of the trees to be removed, seeking permission.The owners may request a con ference with a PSNH representative.
Shawn McCarthy told Berner "We take trees seriously.I"m going to be watching."And it was revealed that PSNH really needs to be on the lookout, for one woman on Nute Road was described by her husband as being a "Tree-Hugger."
In other Planning Board business, Fritz Green was elected to serve as chairman, with Tom Burbank as vice-chair.Discussion of the update of the Master Plan was postponed.Green pointed out that the board is short of members, but expects replacements; he suggested that the discussion begin with a full board.
No one who was present for University of New Hampshire Professor Emeritus Barrett Rock's lecture on March 21, relative to climate change (particularly in New England), could go home thinking "all's well."
Rock, who has done research within the UNH's Institute of Earth, Oceans and Space, as well as world-wide, betweem 1997 and 2001 coordinated a regional survey of climate change impacts to New England, both over the past 100 years and those projected for the future.
Stating that his real love has been of the forests, he brought the issue home by pointing out that our sugar maples are being stressed to the degree that 50 gallons of sap is now required to obtain one gallon of syrup, whereas 34 gallons of sap used to do the job.
His slides gave witness of the changes in the atmosphere, reflecting data which supports the concern being shown world-wide about the unpredictable changes in the weather. One example is that trees in Alaska are tipping over because of the melting of the permafrost.
Rock developed the hands-on science activities which are being conducted by students grades K-12 on an international scale: 26 countries with thousands of schools participating - including our Moharimet Elementary School. This initiative is called GLOBE, for Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment.Student data on the weather is collected daily and reflected on maps the next day.
Rock reported that two decades of climate records in New England, New York and New Jersey showtwo degrees of warming inthe area.Any and all means of reducing air pollution can be helpful and need to be initiated, according to the speaker, because "Our decisions today will shape our children's decisions tomorrow."
This well-attended lecture was sponsored by the Madbury Community Club and the Madbury Public Library.A social hour followed.

This open enrollment, choose a plan that includes access to our world-class providers. Get better care now
Believe it or not, rehab can be just as important as the surgery or treatment itself.
Breast cancer diagnosis and treatment can be psychologically debilitating. This combined with the physical and emotional stress of treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery) can dramatically impact patients' quality of life.
Rehab addresses treatment side effects such as lymphedema, cording, decreased endurance and joint stiffness (see Benefits tab below). Taking into consideration individual needs, rehab improves quality of life and restores normal function.
Rehabilitation is about more than just exercising. It's about making sure you're emotionally and physically prepared through every phase of treatment. For most patients, rehab typically begins the day after surgery.
At UC San Diego Health, patients undergoing breast cancer surgery are referred to rehab by their doctor, who may be a surgeon, primary care physician or oncologist.
At UC San Diego you'll be able to recover quickly and safely thanks to a skilled, interdisciplinary rehabilitation team. Therapists work closely with oncologists and surgeons to ensure effective and targeted care.
Exercise following surgery is essential to re-educating muscles, restoring movement and decreasing side effects. Our breast cancer rehab center is unique to San Diego in that it sees patients for exercise after their operation. Together, our therapists and surgeons have created an exercise regimen specifically tailored to the needs of patients who undergo breast cancer surgery.
Immediately following surgery, your doctor will order occupational therapy (OT).
During the course of breast cancer rehab, physical therapy (PT) may be prescribed if balance and endurance issues arise.
More about OT and PT and their roles in breast cancer rehab:
Helping patients achieve independence and restore range of motion and strength in the upper body are the primary goals of occupational therapy. Through hands-on interventions and therapeutic exercises, our occupational therapists help restore patients' abilities to perform everyday activities like bathing, dressing and preparing meals.
If you have a
lumpectomy or a
mastectomy (and lymph nodes were removed), your doctor will order OT the day after surgery (while you're still in the hospital). During this time you will receive training on an exercise program you will continue at home.
OT can help with:
If you experience problems with balance due to neuropathy, and/or back and neck pain at any point during breast cancer treatment, your doctor may order PT.
Our physical therapists work with patients to improve their health, general fitness and daily function. Through a program thoughtfully personalized to the individual, our therapists help patients manage the pain and physical inabilities that can result from medical and surgical breast cancer treatment.
PT can help with:
Breast cancer treatment can impact emotional and physical well-being, making it difficult for patients to return to normal living.
Breast cancer rehab helps to:
Rehab also helps detect and treat two common long-term side effects of breast cancer surgery and radiation:
Any woman who has been treated for breast cancer is at risk for developing
lymphedema, a condition that causes swelling in the body. The main treatment for lymphedema is complete or complex decongestive therapy (CDT).
Through exercise, manual lymph drainage and compression bandaging, CDT helps to:
4 self-care tips that can help reduce swelling:
After the lymph nodes are removed, the lymph and blood vessels in the underarm area may become inflamed. The vessels then harden, causing rigid scar tissue (cords) to form. Cording can extend from the top of the underarm to the wrist, and can appear days or even years after surgery. Women who develop cording may experience:
Cording is a common condition and may go away on its own. Massages, stretching and manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) can help ease symptoms.
3 ways to help ensure successful recovery after treatment:

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Tony Stewart knocked Brad Keselowski from the pole as qualifying ended Saturday at Texas Motor Speedway.
Stewart waited right until the end of the final round to attempt his lap and circled the speedway at 195.454 mph to grab the top starting spot for Sunday's race.
It's Stewart's 15th career pole and first since Atlanta in 2012.
"It was cool. I'm not normally a qualifier," Stewart said.
Keselowski made his attempt earlier in the session and turned his lap at 195.419. He was out of his car and watching the scoring pylon as Stewart crossed the finish line, and Keselowski dropped his head in disappointment when he saw he'd been beaten.
"Stewart put down a great lap at the end, didn't see that one coming," Keselowski said. "That's why they do it this way. Really exciting and a lot of fun to watch, and quite honestly, a lot of fun to participate in this new format of qualifying."
Kevin Harvick qualified third as two Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolets were in the top three. The organization is the only one in the Sprint Cup Series with two wins this season — Harvick won at Phoenix and Kurt Busch won last week at Martinsville — but the four cars have been all over the map and lacked consistency.
"Tony capturing the pole is as good as it gets for the organization," Harvick said. "That's a huge improvement for where we've been as a company the last few weeks."
Busch qualified 11th as three of the four SHR drivers advanced into the third and final round of knockout qualifying.
The final session was dominated by Fords as blue oval drivers claimed six of the final 12 spots and were led by Keselowski, who will start on the front row for the fifth time in seven races this season.
Ford drivers Greg Biffle and Carl Edwards qualified fourth and fifth for Roush Fenway Racing.
Then came Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin, the only Toyota driver to make it to the top 12.
Trevor Bayne was seventh in his first appearance in the final group this season, and he was followed by Ryan Newman, Marcos Ambrose, Joey Logano, Busch and Jeff Gordon.
Six-time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson failed to advance to the final round for the first time this season.
"We're really surprised not to have pace here in qualifying," Johnson said. "We have a very fast race car, in race trim especially. Our car is blazing fast. Qualifying hasn't always been my strong suit, and today it showed up here for whatever reason.
"We'll get her cleaned up and get her ready for the race on Sunday."

Sol 280 Update On Curiosity From USGS Scientist Ken Herkenhoff: Drilling Success!20 May 2013
The drilling at "Cumberland" went perfectly. The MAHLI images that we planned for Sol 279 came out well. So the plan for Sol 281 includes sieving of the sample and feeding some of it to SAM. This will happen late in the afternoon, when winds are expected to be low, to avoid loosing some of the sample during dropoff to SAM. SAM will then start analyzing the sample overnight.

Materials & Coatings
Software Allows Designers to Compare Material Specs for Automotive Applications
WorldAutoSteel and the Steel Market Development Institute (SMDI), a business unit of the American Iron and Steel Institute, have unveiled a new software tool that enables vehicle designers to quickly and accurately evaluate material-selection tradeoffs. The Design Advisor software, developed by Dr. Don Malen of the University of Michigan's College of Engineering, will help engineers understand how material decisions affect vehicle mass, cost, fuel economy and environmental impact.
"Since these criteria are not easily combined as a single objective number, the engineer must be presented with potential effects on mass, cost and emissions so that appropriate tradeoffs can be evaluated and selected," says Malen. "Design Advisor provides the ability to evaluate various materials at a vehicle-system level."
Since material decisions often are made early in the vehicle-design cycle, the software is configured to operate with only the information available in the vehicle-planning stage. The mathematical models used in Design Advisor draw from the research and findings of several projects supported by SMDI, the Auto/Steel Partnership, WorldAutoSteel and United States Automotive Materials Partnership LLC.Along with a complete version of Design Advisor, engineers may download a user guide and case-study examples demonstrating the software's functionality and use. One case study we spied on the WorldAutoSteel website compares seat frames of stamped steel and die-cast magnesium. View that case study, and download the Design Advisor software, at www.worldautosteel.org/projects/design-advisor.

This is sweet as all get-out.
The Rockies are in Philly this week, and at some point first-base coach Rene Lachemann handed a ball to a kid in the stands. But first, he had some life lessons to impart. Take the trash out. Clean your room. Listen to your parents. Don't get a cell phone. Eat your vegetables. Don't pee on the toilet seat.
All the same things Lachemann must've told those expansion Marlins.
Update: Turns out this is from last month. Whatever. New to me, and still great advice.

Ever since I can remember, I've had a special fondness for home decoration. The psychology behind it especially thrills me, since I was a psychology major during undergrad. I love the effect that colors have on spaces, the way they can change the mood of a room. Blues are calming, orange energizes, reds excite and stimulate appetite, and yellows evoke happiness. Certain colors are better for certain rooms, while others are to be avoided. The psychology of color is a fascinating subject on its own; couple it with home decorating, and I am one happy girl.
My interest in home decorating began at a fairly early age, with my poor bedroom taking the brunt of many poor decoration choices. It went through the glow-in-the-dark star phase, including glow bead curtains. It involved lava lamps, glitter lamps, and photos taped to the wall. When I was 12, I stenciled a flowered border around the ceiling of my bedroom, apologizing to my mom half-way through (and while sitting on top of my flimsy wardrobe, to her distress). When I was 15, I painted a door-sized mural on the wall, again apologizing afterward. Years later, it's a wonder my parents trusted me to help them paint their house!
Luckily, my decorating abilities have improved with age. I do still paint murals on walls from time to time, but they are a bit more artistic than before. And I do still, on occasion, precariously balance on top of ladders and cabinets to paint edgework (like at my sister's house last year) but now my parents stand at the base of the ladder, holding it in place.
When I moved to the area, I bought a new couch and various decorations for my new apartment. I added the extra touches, books propped here, a metal seal statue there, unique things to tie the room together. I enjoy the general feel of the space, but I've felt myself growing restless recently, looking for something to decorate. My Decorating/For the Home board on Pinterest is currently overflowing with pins, but most of the images have broken website links. How frustrating, to find images of beautiful paint colors, room layouts, curtain ideas, pillow designs, and more, with no way to ID color names, or find instructions for the other great ideas.
Fortunately, since I work at the library, I have access to all the latest decorating books! My current favorite decorating book, which I've gone through twice already, is Young House Love: 243 Ways to Paint, Craft, Update & Show Your Home Some Love by Sherry and John Petersik. This book is packed with ideas, ranging in price, time commitment, and amount of work. It even suggests color palettes, providing the brand and color name. My favorite name was Quiet Moments by Benjamin Moore. If you find one you like better, let me know!
Whether you're looking for tips on hanging curtains, various ways to hack Ikea designs, kitchen backsplash suggestions, instructions for hanging wallpaper, or even building a headboard, Young House Love has something for all your decorating needs.

Video—Suzuki Roshi Discusses the Sandokai: Sound and Noise
This film of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi is an excerpt from a talk he gave at Tassajara in 1971 on the poem Sandokai (trans: The Harmony of Difference and Equality). These lectures became the basis of the book, Branching Streams Flow in the Darkness. This clip is part of a collection of films about Suzuki Roshi called "One Particle of Dust" which appeared at the Buddhist International Film Festival in 2005.

Choo-Choose Whitehead on Saturday 18th August 2018
Choo-Choose Whitehead Railway Museum for an adventurous day out!
Looking for something fun to do with the kids or just an adventurous day out this weekend? Why not #ChooChooseWhitehead? Whitehead Railway Museum, which opened just last year, is open from Thursday to Saturday each week. The five-gallery museum is located in Whitehead on the Causeway Coastal Route, just 15 miles from Belfast. You can marvel at the giants of steam, hear the story of how the railways revolutionised society, see, smell and hear restoration work in progress in the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland workshops. You can pull the levers in the signal cabin and climb on board and explore some of the historic carriages and locomotives which are on display. Whitehead Railway Museum is just a 10-minute walk from Whitehead NIR station, so you can make it a rail day by stepping from a modern NIR train to see the historic trains of yesteryear. Journey back to the age of steam – you won't be disappointed. Treat yourself to a coffee, tea or a lunch in the period-style Edwardian Tea Room. Think of the classic movie "Brief Encounter" as you enjoy your refreshments in the magnificent surroundings of a traditional railway buffet. The Museum is open every Thursday to Saturday from 10am to 4pm. Conducted tours are available at 11am, 1pm, 2:30pm The Tea Room will be open until 3:45pm. Ticket prices: · Adult: £7 · Child: £5 · Concession: £6 · Family ticket: £20 · Under 3-year old's go free. Please check our website at www.steamtrainsireland.com for details on additional opening days during holiday periods.

Once you tell tinderbox to build a list of ports it happily goes off and does it's work. But how do you know what it is doing? Well let's nosey around and see what we can find. Let's open a terminal and tell it to compile devel/p5-Log-Dispatch and see what happens.
Well that doesn't tell me much of anything. In fact during the wait between line 26 and 27 it gives no clue as to what it is doing. It turns out if you look inside the right build dir you will get some more info. With BUILDNAME=9.0-amd64-clang
That lock file tells tinderbox that this build is busy working. In case of severe breakage you will need to delete this to get started again. The duds file contains a list of ports that it won't be compiling (back to that in a sec). The Makefile has a list of dependancies for the port that is being compiled and the make.0 (and make.1 if it is there) is a log file giving a general overview of what is happening, you will see the environment settings and the current port being made (at least the distname of the source package which often matches the portname). tail -f make.0 will let you watch as things progress. make.0 logs stage0 progress while make.1 logs stage1.
If wou want to see more detail then you will find the working system installed inside /usr/local/tinderbox/$BUILDNAME Of most interest will be the tmp dir where you will find pieces of log files that will be joined into the final log that you can access later. Each step of the build is in a separate piece so you get one for extract, one for patch, one for configure...
Now why would tinderbox list ports in the duds file and how do you build a port that gets listed there? Well the duds file contains ports that are marked BROKEN or IGNORE. For the reason and a way to find a solution you probably need to look inside the Makefile for that port (within the ports tree). There are several reasons for a port to be marked as broken, sometimes it is broken for a specific ARCH, sometimes it is because it is incompatible with another installed port or that two options are incompatible with each other. This would be more likely if you are configuring options for your ports rather than just the defaults. A port may also be marked as ignore if an option is turned on but the supporting port is not installed. While normally that is handled by the ports dependencies I have found at least one port that breaks with that inside tinderbox. It appears that the Makefile is parsed before the dependencies are in place. Also if you set options and create a dependancy loop the make.0 in the builds dir will quickly grow to several gigabytes in size. Killing the make process will then start stage 1 repeating the same thing. The quick growing log size is the only way I found to spot this - well you probably notice the constant disk access slowing things down if you are using the machine at the time. If you use zfs setting a quota on the filesystem for tinderbox can be very helpful.
Inside /usr/local/tinderbox/logs/$BUILDNAME you will find log files of every build that has finished. If there was any errors you will also get a link inside /usr/local/tinderbox/errors/$BUILDNAME
find /usr/local/tinderbox/errors -name "*.log" will list all error logs.
With the default config of tinderbox the webui is turned on. If you turned it off because you don't want apache installed then choose one of the smaller web servers as the webui is helpful. The webui is accessed from http://localhost/tb - if setup on your current machine. If you setup and use tinderd then you can also get access to that through the webui. That includes adding ports to the queue.
The homepage gives a nice table listing each build name with a range of counts for number of ports, failed ports etc and a link to the packages directory. If your building to create your own packages site then you can use this link. While most descriptions for the counts are pretty obvious, unknown status is a count of ports you have added to the datastore but there is no data available for it - the data is only added to the database after the first compile runs. The remake count is how many ports are currently queued to be compiled. Using the example above - when starting to compile devel/p5-Log-Dispatch there is a total of 25 dependancies that need to be installed for that port. When you start the compile on a clean build remake will start at 25 and count down as each dependant port is completed. Ports that need to be updated will also be included in this number. While remake is only a displayed number, the others are links to a list of details.
Most of the other pages are lists that vary only in the search criteria and are pretty straight forward. The latest builds page is good to keep open while building - while a port is compiling it will refresh every minute so you can watch the progress - more helpful when you have a lot of dependancies. A green filled box for reason is no errors, red means failed build and orange means a dependancy failed. The link to show the log file with markup is also helpful - it is pretty good at locating errors in the log files and gives you a list of links at the top to each error line as well as highlighting them in red.

Mayor's Office
Mayor Chris Beutler today released Lincoln sales tax figures for July showing that net sales tax collections are up about $164,000 or 3.6 percent compared to the same month last year. The collections also exceeded expectations by about $218,000. The figures reflecting July sales are reported to the state in August and received by the City in September.
"We were anxiously awaiting July figures this year to see the impact of the Special Olympics USA National Games," said Beutler. "The week-long Games not only gave our community an emotional boost, it also boosted our economy even more than we expected. This demonstrates the importance of keeping and maintaining events in our City."
The Games July 18 through 23 attracted about 2,400 athletes, 750 coaches and about 15,000 family members and friends.
"This is exactly what we anticipated when we first began the process of bringing these games to Lincoln," said Wendy Birdsall, Lincoln Chamber of Commerce President. "The credit really goes to our corporate partners, volunteer citizens and dedicated staff. Without the hard work of the entire community, these great gains in revenue wouldn't be possible."
Sales tax revenues fund about 40 percent of the City's tax-supported budget. Property tax revenue funds about 29 percent of the budget, with the remainder coming from fees, interest income and other sources.
Net sales tax revenue for July were $4,767,314. Net sales tax revenue is calculated by subtracting refunds to businesses for LB775 tax credits from gross sales tax revenues.

What a cute, simple sweater to knit up! And those side pockets in another color? Way adorable.
Quince & Co. always have such cute styled photos for their projects.
I have never played Yahtzee. I must check that game out.
I need to knit one Christmas beanie in the city's baseball team's colors. I have a Pay-It-Forward beanie to do also. My knitting mojo needs a kick in the behind as I lost it after dissatisified w/this other Pay-It-Forward gift. But I'll try to start on a beanie today. So much to do...sigh.

Yahtzee is great, as soon as my kids are a little bigger we'll start playing. I'm knitting 3 wrap up puppies, a fairy and purse from your pattern in Knit Simple and crocheting 3 dinosaurs. I love making toys for my little ones. Thanks for the great patterns!
- December 16, 2011
I made one ruffle scarf, three pairs of fingerless gloves, Two sweaters. for my grand daughter who is 11 mo. old. all finished and under the tree, now I've got to get busy and make some goodies to eat!

I've made two slouchy hats, one for my neice and one for my son's girlfriend. I have a third on the needles--because I lost of of the ones I made temporarily! I had hidden it because I have a cat who LOVES yarn and carries my skeins or knit--or partially-knit items around!!! I made a ruffly scarf and crocheted a shawl. I sewed a darling sock knitting bag for a friend who makes socks often, it's on Terri Atkinson's blog as a free pattern (she's a quilt designer). I've also been knitting lots of other non-Christmas gifts. FUN!

I might have to tackle that sweater in the new year! I've got to finish up one of your owls from Knit Simple for my daughter's 1st grade teacher--their classroom theme is owls so it is absolutely perfect for them! My 15 year old niece requested "mittens with some sort of cable or buttons or something" from me, going to give "Bella's Mittens" a try. Making a mini sweater ornament in Packer colors for my newphew/Godson, too! Yikes! And I want to get started on the patterns from the children's book "Phoebe's Sweater" for my own daughter Phoebe (the 1st grader). So many projects... so little time!! Good thing I'm pretty much done with Christmas prep!
