In other words, they're meaningless.

The big, if horrific, sports story today is about hockey. We don't talk hockey much on here, but we're huge hockey fans. The news? A plane carrying one of Russia's best hockey teams, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, crashed today, killing 43 of 45 people on board.
Local puckheads will be particularly saddened to hear of the passing of head coach, Brad McCrimmon, an 18-year NHL veteran, and two longtime League vets with local ties: former King and three-time All-Star Pavol Demitra and 10-year Ducks defensive stalwart Ruslan Salei.
Want to know more? Remarkably good coverage can be found on the NHL's website. Other than that, words fail us at the moment.

Popular girl Rosalie Hale is determine to face off her ex-boyfriend Emmett McCarty in a country's biggest music competion.But she needs a band.That brings in Edward Mason.He knows about everything about music,just like the back of his hands.But all he needs is friends.And a rebel gutair player Be5lla has a wicked voice but is in a very dark part in her life,all she needs is someone to beleive in her.Will they find love,friendship and winning or just let rock n'roll past them?
Mostly in Edward's Point of View.
Chapter 1-Dear David Bowie-
I was typing on my Mac Laptop my Mother Esme, got me for my seventeeth birthday.It was the best gift anybody got for me.It was also a sorry gift for her options of dating guys and for my Dad.Who I don't really like talking or even thinking about.I was ofcourse writting for David Bowie.Like I do everyday.He was the only friend I had.And I was ok with that.Even when he doesn't write me back.It kinda made me feel like I was a girl writting a diary or a journal and he was the person I was writting to with that 'Dear Diary' crap.
"Dear David Bowie,
Well,it's monday moning,which,let's face it,in Forks,is redundant,I'm getting ready for school,or as I like to call it,Guasntanamo with a lunch period.My Mm says that's seeing the glass half-empty.Personallu,I just hope one day to actually see that glass."My Mother stopped me but I was still tyiping about how life in Forks was a waste of a teens life.
"Edward,you're going to be late"I heard her opening my door,she walked in with her lipgloss in one hand and her motherly smile on her face.Me and my Mom act like friends but when it comes down to it she is actually a Mom.A caring one at it.
"Edward?"She asked.Probaly worried I was watching what teenage boys are actually into these days.But no.I'm writting.I bet you I already wrote five novels just by writting to Mr.Bowie himself.
"Are you writting another letter to David Bowie?"She asked sincerly.She didn't want me to write because,she didn't want me to cry in my room about how he maybe returns my mail or something.But that wasn't going to happen to me.I was a strong guy.Without a girlfriend but oh,well.
"Doesn't it bother you that he never writes back?"She asked.She was more worried about this from the beggining.And she started it.With her acting like a theropist.My Mom actually decorated houses.Even though in Forks wasn't getting a lot of money.I shrugged with my eyes still on the laptop.
"He knows that would only intimidate me."I said.
"See,why can't I take rejection like that?"I shrugged again at her.I felt her walk by me and kissed the top of my toussled bronze hair I got from my father.I didn't respond back.She sighed.
"Come on Edward.Let's go.Another day of high school"I rolled my eyes and started printing out my letter and got my backpack and headed toward the coat rack and got my coat.I then relized I needed my Ipod.The one thing that makes me live.I ran to my room and saw my Ipod on the iHome and took it off and ran off to another day of people calling me names.Being in school wasn't worth it at all.Just having teachers baby-sit you and hope that one day you would finally process of algebra and Moby D***.But then again school isn't gut-wrenching awful.Mostly,it's just some kind of novocaine for the soul.At the end of the day I was waiting to get on the bus.One step closer to writting another letter.I looked around the atmesphere.I tend to make snap judments about people based on what kind of music they listen too.Like kids who ae into hip-hop lite,the kind where some rapper does one verse of Cristina Aguliera song.Then theres the "Trustafarians",rich suburban white kids with knit caps and $2,000 dreadlock extensions.Who are mostly take n by the male population at this school.The indie-rock cliwue is made up of me and one other kid I refuse to meet because he flats his hair by his hand and it's greasy as heck and also needs to bathe.I think I missed the memo about how to fit in Forks,Washington.
I then get shoved down by some moron.Who was the football caption who was probaly into Pop music.
"I'm sorry that was an accident.Dewey"I never wanted to be called that.That was the worst thing in my eyes ever.Flashbacks of my Father came in my head.Edward Sr. Mason.Driving drunk.I got out of it and got up.One wise musican once said "I have become comfortably numb"I wish that was the case.I then felt wetness on top of my head.Happens every day of my life.
I got off the bus seeing my mother.She looked worried at me.Ofcourse she would be she was my Mother.She sighed and kept walking like she was a stranger until the bus left.She then stopped me.And sighed again.She shook her head.She pulled me into a hug.
"What's one thing I could say to make all this pain go away?"She whispered in my ear.
"You quit your job and we're moving out of Forks"I stated.I felt her smile of my shoulder blade.She pulled away and I saw her smiling like I just got into Harvard.
"I quit my job and we're moving out of Forks"She said.I chuckled and kept walking.She catched up to me.
"Mom,you're just a cat and I'm your play toy"I said.She groaned.She wrapped her arms around her chest.
"I mean it.Edward.New Jersey.I got an offer.I am going to take,where you like it or not.You hate here.Just say.Scream if you want.We are moving"She said.I then smiled.I felt like a child when their parents say they got them a huge desert and could stay up all night.
"It's perfect.More money.Flexible hours"I smiled.I couldn't beleive we were moving.Out of this place.I went to hug her.
"Your the best mom"She shrugged and pulled away.
"Ofcourse I am.And you won't be that new.Because,the semester starts later than here."She was the best.I don't know how I got a Mom like her.But then I stopped my excitement.It was going to be the same.It wasn't like my past was going to go away.It's been like this forever.Since I was tweleve.
"It's not going to be any different there"I said.She sighed and bit her bottom lip.She was going to start acting like a Mom again.Which was very rare for us.
"Okay,there's the Edward Mason,I know and love"She said.I laughed and rolled my eyes.She wasn't looking so that saved me another lecture.I started walking home.I knew she was following me.Like one inch apart from me.
"Gosh,for a mintue I thought you were actually possessed!By a happy,well-adjusted teenager."I looked at her.She always did that.I sighed.
"It might actually be different.Different place,kids,familes,lives."She said.I nodded and kept my eyes straight forward.
"But the same me.The same us"I said.She groaned.She wrapped her arm around my shoulder.
"If you want we can change identiys.But I still think and will always think.Your are not the problem.You are terrific.Any Mother would want you.I'm happy I got something good off that marriage"I nodded and stopped.She took my hand and kissed my forehead.
"Come on Edward.Just like my Mom always said.If you miss out on life,they win.And no one wants others to win.That's human life."I laughed and nodded.
"Fine.New Jersey"She smiled.We walked home and started to pack.I coudn't beleive I was actually getting away from her.We got in my Mom's Edge and we started to drive toward New Jersey.We were now mintues away from being there.Away from the mess.We were listening to my iPod.Me and my Mom kinda had the same taste in music.We were singing along to a song.I had my viedo camera in one hand and my head banging up and down while my Mother was driving.I stopped and turned to my camera.
"Okay,Mick Jagger recored this with Peter Tosh.It's almost ska.It's like reggae,but it pops more,and they don't sing about Jah."I said.I turned off the camera and looked at my Mother.She looked confused a little.She just didn't understand music at all.
"You have no idea what I'm talking about do you?"I asked.
"No"She said.I laughed.
"But I'm happy that my son is happy"She said.I laughed and rolled my eyes.I then saw the sign.The memo saying we were there.Lodi,New Jersey.My Mother exclaimed.Once we got there I started putting things away.I put up all my posters of Lou Reed,Mick Jagger and David Bowie.I looked around and smiled.It was complete.My room.
"Edward,honey,big day tommrow get some sleep"My Mother said from the other room.I sighed.
Chapter 2-The Five Is Slient-
I woke up and got ready.I was finally at the school.I wish I could stay home and just listen to my iPod and type to David Bowie.I was on the phone with my mother.I was telling her about my enterance and her just making sure everything was ok.The bell rung.And I saw all types of the going around.
"Elvis is in the building"I said.She asked me all types of questions like if I was safe,and did it look historic.But the one question that made sense was.
"Unharmed?"SHe asked.I smiled and chuckled.
"Completely"I heard her sqeual.I rolled my eyes.
"See,,told you it would be different"I then saw the boy that changed everything.The boy that was just in the same clique as me.Flating his hair.Smells horrible.Great.
"Night and Day"I whispered in my phone.I hanged up.I was sitting down typing on my laptop.It was nice I didn't get in trouble yet.
"Dear David Bowie,
There's one big advantange to my new school and my old one.All those years of whising I could make myself invisable?Turns out,all I had to do was move to New Jersey.Perfect right?"I turned off my laptop and turned and saw a beautiful girl with long hair that went to her back.She had chocolate brown eyes.She was eating a sandwhich reading Pride & Predjuice.It looked worn out.I saw a Coke can with a twizzler looking like a straw.She was now slurping the Coke.She turned toward me.What do I do?This beautiful goddess just turned to me!I looked down.Then a voice came up.
"Happy New Year,Van Buren!What's up?"I turned towards the stage.Some guy with a micophone was talking and people started screaming.
"I just have one question for you"He stated.I saw the beautiful goddess.She kept her eyes in her book now taking a bite of her sandwhich.She looked flawless doing it.
"What's going to happen in 3,600 hours from right now?"He screamed into the mic.People started yelling "BandSlam" I had no clue what that was.I felt like an outsider.But I always was.
"And who is going to bring home the gold?"He asked again.But this time not really screaming.It seemed like the goddess didn't care.
"Give it up for Emmett McCarty and the Glory Dogs!"He yelled.Then the curtains went to the side and a guy in a orange shirt jeans and converse was on the gutiar infront of the mic singing.People ran up the the stage like we were in a concert not school.I opened my lap top again.And started typing to David Bowie again.
"Lunch today was like Nuremberg rall produced by MTV.Out of nowhere people were acting like maniacs.Over something called BandSlam."I closed my laptop once again.I turned toward the stage.He was ok.For some kid who lived in New Jersey.I scooted toward the goddess.
"How big is this whole Bandslam thing around here?"I yelled.She kept focus on her book.
"Texas high-school-football big"She said.She took another sip of her Coke.And looked at me.Her lips were pursed.She tried to smile but it looked like she had a hard time doing it.
"You new?"She asked.I nodded.She put down her book.She held her hand up.
"Schedule newbe"She said.That nickname never came to anybodies mind.I looked though my bag and handed it to her.I felt electicy run though my veins.She frozed and parted her lips.She shook it off and looked my schedule.
"We have Biolody and Human Studies together"She said.I nodded.That's great.We get to be so close to each other.I was actually kinda in love with her right now.
"What's your name?"She asked.I sighed and cleard my throat.
"Edward Mason"She nodded and got out a peice of paper and a pen.She wrote down something and slapped it down on the table.Her nails were painted black and she had a beautiful pink ring on her pointer finger.On the paper it said Be5lla.
"The five is slient"She said.I was really in love with her now.She then got up and left.I stared at her as she left.I wanted her so badly.Like she would date me.I ate my lunch and got ready for Human Studies.My favorite subject now.
When I got there I gave my schedule to the teacher.She seemed perky.I sat down in the back row and saw Be5lla.She sat down and seemed like she didn't see me.Just then a guy came up to her.He had blonde hair and had a jersey.
"Bella,do you want to go on a date one day?"He asked.Bella looked up and sighed.
"Sorry Mike,I don't date guys who are stuck up and who are just trying to get in my pants"She said.He left shocked and a group of guys started laughing a goofing around.Then the teacher started talking.The two words I hate the most.
"Buddy up"I gasped.It made me flinch.I hated buddying it.It was like sucide for me.I groaned.So did everybody except Bella who just sat there.
"This semester,I want you to pick someone in the class and create a presentation that will show us who that person truly is."I saw Mike smiling and grining at Bella.She was just staring and gimcing at the way Mrs.Grason was smiling.
"You can do anything you want photos,poetry,ciedo.Get creative,people"She said overly excited.
"Get together after school.Know each other in ways we never expected"Mike came up to Bella.He was smiling ear to ear.He was very excited about this project.
"Be5lla,you want to be my partner"Every guy went up to her.Ofcourse she was going to choose one of them.No one came up to me.I just sat there.Staring into thin air.
"Sorry,but Edward's my partner."Mike stomped away so did every guy.She turned to me and sighed.
"I'm serious.Meet at the mall at five.Over by the stairs"She then left.I was paired up with the most beautiful girl I ever met.New Jersey was getting better and better.
We were in the mall now.She didn't say anything.She was just reading.I saw girls walk by with Juciy bags and guys walking with Abcroimbe bags kissing and snuggling with their girlfriends.I turned to Bella who hasn't put her book down.
"Do you want to start?"I asked.She kept her eyes on the book.
"What's your favorite color?"She asked me.Brown.I thought in my head.Because it's your eye color.But that made me typical.Be5lla was beautiful really beautiful.It's hard not seeing her head cheerleader or dating Mike.
"No,I mean,we have to dig a little deeper than that."I said.She put her book down and sighed.
"Project counts half our grade"I said.She nodded.She put her book in her purse and squared her shoulders and took a deep breath and sighed again.She bit her bottom lip.
"Why don't we show each other our favorite spots.Most favorite spots.And the ones we hate.In the whole world"I said.She nodded and tried to smile again.But failed.
"Least favorite?"I asked.She looked around and giving me a look.The one with it's pretty obvious look.And it was.She seemed tensed here.Guys came running kicking each other in the butt and grunting.
"Done"I nodded.I actually agreed.I hated it here more than Forks.
"Most favorite?"I asked.She shrugged.She looked away from me and thought about it.
"Can I get back to you on that?"She asked.I had to ask about how she talked.She sounded so depressed.It made me want to cry.
"Why do you talk like that?"I asked.SHe looked at me.She had killer and hatred expression on her face.
"Why do you look like that?"She asked.I shrugged.
"I just do"SHe nodded.
"Same here"She said.She then went back to her book.I sighed.That wasn't successful.I don't think I will past this Human Studies at all.Oh,well.She then looked at me with sad eyes.
"I used to stutter.My Mom died.That's when it started.But emotions are overrated."She said.She looked forward.That was sad.She lost her Mom.I don't think I could live without my Mother.But that was because she was nice and great.
"There is a middle ground"I said.Then a girl walked by and threw a smoothie in a trashcan and it splattered a little on my right shoulder great.
"Idiots"Be5lla whispered.
"Morons"I said.She nodded.We looked into each others eyes.I smiled she smirked and got up.
"I got to go.Bye"She said and left.I probaly scared the girl off.Perfect.

A judging panel chaired by Michael Mansfield QC has selected 28 finalists for the 10th anniversary Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year awards.
Those shortlisted for a prestigious 'LALY' award include:
- Raj Chada from Hodge Jones & Allen who acted for 'Jonnie Marbles', the man who attacked Rupert Murdoch with a foam pie during a parliamentary hearing; and also won acquittals for protestors who staged a peaceful 'sit-in' at Fortnum & Mason during the 2011 TUC demonstration.
- Public Interest Lawyers, the Birmingham-based firm known for its groundbreaking work challenging human rights abuses in Iraq and Afghanistan. Roger Smith, director of Justice, said the firm had used legal aid to 'achieve constitutional change as well as an effective result for their own clients'.
- Liz Barratt, an immigration solicitor at Bindmans whose work challenging the removal of children led to the suspension of child returns from the UK. Her nomination was supported by a former asylum client who has gone on to train as a social worker.
- Julian Hayes, a solicitor in west London, who acted in the so-called 'Ricin Plot Trial', the first major terror trial in this country post 9/11, which resulted in the acquittal of four of the five defendants.
- Tunde Okewale, a young barrister at Doughty Street, who founded urbanlawyers.co.uk, an organisation that aims to educate young people about the criminal law and their rights.
- Razia Jogi, from Switalskis in Bradford, who works with domestic violence and forced marriage victims. One barrister said: 'Razia sees her role not just as a lawyer in the academic sense but as someone who is there to cajole, encourage and foster hope in those who can see no end to their suffering.'
The winners will be announced and presented with their awards by Michael Mansfield at a ceremony in central London on 12 June.
The 11 LALY judges selected finalists in nine award categories after reading over 1,000 pages of nominations. Entries were supported by testimonials from clients, medical and other experts, judges and campaigners. They will also be making an award for Outstanding Achievement.
The LALYs, which were launched in 2003, are the only awards aimed solely at those doing legal aid work. They are organised by the Legal Aid Practitioners Group on a not-for-profit basis.
LAPG director Carol Storer said: 'The judges had such a difficult job to do because the nominations in all categories were terrific. We congratulate everyone on the shortlist. Like so many legal aid lawyers they work flat out for their clients'.

39. "Nikki Says"
This song is about an old friend of the Trouble Dolls.
$*^&#!! was a very nice person, but she could be super-critical, and this bugged us. Because we are better at writing songs than at handling friendship problems, we wrote a song about her judginess. And because we are also very nice and considerate people, we told her about the song before recording it.
$*^&#!! was hurt. OK, she was crushed. She said all the other Trouble Dolls girl-name songs were love songs, full of affection or longing; this one was exceptional in its tone of exasperation. She didn't want to be special that way. Could we please change the name from $*^&#!! to another girl-name? And then she could like the song very much.
Because we are very nice and considerate people, we changed the name in the song from $*^&#!! to Nikki. And because it's got two syllables, it actually sounds better. Thanks $*^&#!!

Wild mushroom foraging is wet and weird Washington pastime
By Tara Nelson
It may not yet be the season for hunting delicious wild chanterelles or shaggy manes, but members of the Northwest Mushroomers Association are gearing up for what they hope to be a second year of unprecedented fungal abundance.
Last year's unusually wet and mild summer led to an early fruiting of lobster mushrooms, the king bolete (commonly called the porcini) as well as large numbers of other, more rare mushrooms.
Of the more than 170 samples brought in for display at the group's annual mushroom convention, NMA has identified 10 new species and some, which have yet to be identified, have been dried and sent to Scotland for further examination.
"There's always something new out there, but last year was actually a good year for everything because of the rains in July, the particularly warm period after that and then ideal conditions in the early fall, so there was a lot of everything this year," said NMA board member Jack Waytz, of Bellingham. "Still, it was unusual to find so many things that are rare," he added.
Foray is adventure in fungi
It is a sparkling crisp early fall morning in 2007 and a group of about 20 dedicated mushroom enthusiasts clothed in rain parkas and durable fleece hats are foraging for a variety of different fungi on the rocky cliffs of Deception Pass Island near Fidalgo Island's Bowman Bay.
Harold Mead, a member NMA, slices a small, white mushroom from the ground and holds it to his nose, cups his hands, and inhales deeply. He then snaps the stalk, which breaks neatly in two, which identifies the mushroom's genus.
"It's just another Russula," he says, a phrase used so often by mushroomers it has been shortened to the anacronym "JAR" in the presence of other fungus affictionados. The Russula is a huge family and the stems snap like chalk.
Mead, a former climbing instructor for the Bellingham chapter of the American Alpine Institute and owner of McMillen Motors automotive repair in Anacortes, is referring to a genus that includes about 750 distinctive species of mycorrhizal mushrooms worldwide.
His wife, Maggie Sullivan, however, who was at the head of the group, explained it another way: "These guys are fanatics," she said.
The expedition, called a foray in mushroomer speak, is one several monthly activities the group organize.
Other recent events included a presentation by Western Washington University mycologist Fred Rhoads on the subject of predatory and carnivorous fungi (that's right, carnivorous) such as the edible and very tasty oyster mushroom and the shaggy mane, which get their nitrogen fix by trapping tiny snake-like organisms called nematodes in a network of super sticky microscopic rings (fortunately, no humans were harmed in the making of the film by giant flesh-eating fungi).
The organization's annual mushroom show last September at Bloedel Donovan park in Bellingham also displayed more than 200 varieties of regional fungi, gave individuals a chance to sample delicious concoctions such as a rich porcini soup and sautéed chanterelles with garlic and olive oil.
Wet and weird Washington
Whether you're wanting gourmet edibles or plain buttons, the Pacific Northwest has more varieties of mushrooms than any other region in the world.
From the delicious Pacific golden chanterelle, the world-renowned porcini or king bolete, morels, shaggy manes, lobster mushrooms or immature puff balls, it's no wonder mushroom hunting is such a popular pastime here.
Waytz said he estimates there are 20 or 30 edible species available in Whatcom County. Additionally, of the 3,000 different species of mushrooms world-wide, nearly 2,000 of those can be found close to Western Washington.
Waytz said he moved to Bellingham in 2001 from central Texas because of the area's abundance and has been involved with the club ever since. Likewise, membership to the club has grown over the years and is now at an all-time high of 150 members.
Part of that attraction he says is both the scientific and culinary aspects to the foraging, although there's also a sense of excitement in finding a new discovery.
"You're out there in the natural wonders of our area," he said. "It brings you out into the forest and the high country and the coast because it's all about associating mushrooms with the substrate they favor as well as the plants and trees they associate with. So you have to become aware of the entire ecology that you're working in because that's how you find your way to the mushrooms."
Last year's unusually wet and mild summer – while undoubtedly unpopular with recent Californian transplants – proved to be a boon for the window for mushroom hunting, a popular Northwest pastime.
This year could prove similar.
Waytz said residents of the Northwest enjoy a wide variety of mushrooms as a result of a combination of lots of different habitats and climates, as well as temperate forests dominated by trees in the pine family which form relationships with mushrooms called mycorrhizal, or the large fleshy mushrooms, that relate to trees.
Mushrooms are actually restricted to certain families of plants such as the oak, birch and pine families, so forests that are rich in those species tend to have lots of mushrooms, he said. And certain kinds of hardwood forest don't have as many.
"Basically all of the trees, with the exception of cedars, form these associations and many of the mushrooms are quite large and many are very edible and delicious. For example, the Italian specialty Porcini, or the King Bolete," he said.
"The other is because of our fall, we tend to have a pronounced, dry summer and a rather long, pronounced dry fall, so we're not like the Northeast where things get really cold really fast and things get frozen.
Overall, that extends our mushroom hunting season. The only truly mushroom-free months are June and July and even then you can feasibly find some mushrooms. The truffles and false truffles tend to peak in the winter, most of their fruiting is during the winter because that's when they can attract hungry animals "
Given this, it's little wonder there is an organization in Oregon – The North American Truffling Society – in which Jim Traffey, a native of Stehekin, Wash., is the leading world expert on truffles.
Their next meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday, September 11 at the Bellingham Library with guest speaker Alex Winstead of Cascadia Mushroom Works. Meetings are open to the public.
Subsequent monthly meetings are scheduled for 7 p.m. on the second Thursday of the month at the Bellingham public library and hosts leading mushroom experts and coordinate forays and events.
For more information about the club and their events visit www. northwestmushroomers.org or call 360/303-4079. Membership is $15 per year.

Beautiful This dress is even prettier in person! Very classic and elegant, yet suitable for a child. The detail on the back is gorgeous. The skirt is a bit fuller in person than pictured online, and that was perfect for my flower girl. Highly recommend! March 30, 2014
Adorable! Of course flower girls will always be adorable... but this dress is so classic it simply adds to the cuteness!!! My flower girls loved dancing around in there dresses. July 21, 2012
Fantastic Dress The dress is beautiful when pairs with a contrasting sash on the waist. These dresses run pretty true to size maybe even a bit bigger so DO NOT order online go to the store to get a proper fitting. My 4 yr old is tall and normally wears a regular 4 in pants and dresses but she needed a 3t for a dress. Also my 2 yr old needed a dress in 18mon-24mon. I have no complaints and the service at the store was fantastic as well. April 25, 2012
Wow This dress is beautiful on my niece. My wedding is in 36 days and I'm so excited I found the perfect dress for her!! February 11, 2011

"Everyone raved about the card. Really had everybody hyped up about the party. I even think it gave a classy approach to our backyard birthday party."
"I have ordered a wide range of invitations from tiny prints for years and this is no different, it came out perfect! I ordered this in matte and just plain square shape. Paper quality is very good and the picture came out beautiful. The best thing is it matches my son's party color theme and it is so easy to do. I always have a hard time choosing which design I should go with but this one is just simple but chic!"
"Adorable invitation for my son's first birthday. I wanted something very simple - but not too "adult". This was right on the mark."
"Love, love, love the way these invites turned out. Although I did not splurge on any better paper, the paper quality that is free of charge was perfect. The colors are great and my picture that I chose was flawless. Delivery time was perfect. Again, I did not splurge on any rush delivery but my package came earlier than expected! I will definitely order from tiny prints again for all my invite needs and more!"
"I upgraded to the higher paper quality, and this invitation came out perfect! Looks exactly like it does online. I used the "ticket" shape, and the edges were cut really nicely/good quality. I used the free designer review, and they were wonderful. My picture was a little blurry, and designer review kindly cleared up the picture. Very happy! Would 100% purchase again."

Current Insights On Orthoses For Achilles Tendinosis, Plantar Fasciitis And Posterior Insertional Spurs
- Volume 26 - Issue 6 - June 2013
- 6388 reads
- 0 comments
Dr. Clough typically sees a 70 percent decrease in pain in about three weeks with plantar fascia stretches, ice and insoles. With insoles, OTC devices are his preferred choice unless there is significant rearfoot eversion. He uses a P4 Wedge to control the first ray and allow the foot to transition from a loosely packed position at heel contact to a closed packed position at toe off.
If this transition cannot occur and the foot stays in the loosely packed position during propulsion, Dr. Clough points out there is pathologic pressure on the plantar fascia, abductor hallucis and flexor digitorum brevis, and subsequent pain in the heel. He notes the stable higher arched foot with the foot in the closed packed position provides relief of the strain of the plantar fascia and subsequent pain reduction.
"So long as the first ray functions and I have a moderate contour of the arch to the foot, I see tremendous results," says Dr. Clough. "In rare, very difficult cases, an orthotic with minimal fill is required to get a good contour of the device to the foot structure along with a P4 Wedge."
Dr. Williams will use a metatarsal pad for most patients with plantar fasciitis along with a kinetic wedge modification. When necessary, he will use a forefoot valgus post for those with large amounts of lateral column dorsiflexion excursion.
Dr. Clough is in private practice in Great Falls, Mt. He is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, and a Diplomate of the American Board of Podiatric Surgery. Dr. Clough is the inventor of the Cluffy Wedge (P4 Wedge) and the President of the Cluffy Institute.
Dr. Horsley is an Assistant Professor and the Department Chair of Podiatric Surgery and Applied Biomechanics at the Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine at the Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science in Chicago. He is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.

There is an interesting debate that started over at Huffington Post and I heard about on Q100's The Bert Show. It is centered around the questions: Do women now have a sexual advantage? Are women more sexually empowered than men?
Since women are earning more, staying single longer, and are generally living on their own terms, our sex lives are drastically different. Somehow this translates to a sexual advantage.
There is something about sexual empowerment being connected to economics that bothers me, but I understand the point that is being made. The idea is that there is some type of advantage in being a female today with more money, power, and freedom to make choices.
What I wonder though is how can one truly qualify or quantify sexual empowerment? Perhaps I am over thinking this, what are your thoughts?
Is sexual empowerment in men and women something that can truly be compared? Especially considering all of the different/double standards society hold for men and women?

Wow Diva, I caught a bit of this yesterday morning driving in and frankly as women have progressed in many areas over the years, we are still women. That's the way God made us and that's the way we'll remain. While I may sound ignorant to some, we were made different from men for reasons. There is variance that lie between the sexes and will always remain. Women weren't intended to operate as men otherwise God would have made us all one gender. Yet it doesn't make us any less. I don't need to have sex the way men do and I'm not any worse in not competing for men like men compete for women. No matter how much "catching up" of the genders it seems we've done, we'll never be men, have the strength of men, have a heart of stone like men, etc. I happy to love hard, I'm happy to go deep, I'm happy to be the softer weaker sex. I'm especially happy to be the bearer of life. we are different and unique in our own right. I like what I possess as a woman and the difference in gender I can offer AND bring to my man.
As it relates to salaries and fairing different, I don't fret over that either. I make well and satisfied with my own accomplishments. I don't the time or energy to waste over worrying about what men are makung. I keep on keeping in my own right.
There are so many things and areas where we differ in genders that the good outweighs the bad, evem down to the double standards carried between the sexes.

Women have always been physically able to engage in sexual intercourse because they have the ability to do so if they are so inclined where men have to face the reality of aging in a more profound way. Women have much more mental involvement and stronger relationship leanings in selecting their sexual partners. Women have enjoyed increase empowerment in their relationships with or without men which has been changing over the years because of their increased education and their ability to compete with men in the employment market place for the better paying jobs as well as their demonstration to employers of their abilities to perform in almost all job opportunities in all walks of life. Women have found a way to balance careers with the raising of their children thru seeking and finding their husbands willing to work together in raising their families together in order to provide the family with the ability to increase their family income as well as seek a level of accomplishment in their career fields. Yes, their is still the staying home Mother, but an increasing stay at home Father as well depending on the earning power of each of them. I have 4 daughters, all college educated, strong willed, some career oriented but all wonderful Mothers who have thrived under the present family format available to those women who seek a better life through higher education and new empowerment of their elevated employment opportunities variable to them. That translates to all things that affect sexual, economical, and family life. I must qualify that I am talking about America as no where else on earth are women able to enjoy these opportunities that American women have available to them, I only wish that all American women could be in a position to take advantage of these opportunities.

Are women more sexually empowered than men? Uhhh yeah…Its more evident in todays generation than in the past. I also think its one of the many factors that created a blur in the line with our roles as men and women.
Nahila~ Soo are any of your daughters married?? Just curious, All I heard was college educated, strong willed, some career oriented but all wonderful Mothers who have thrived under the present family format. Some consider the present family format as being a single mother doing it on her own.

"The idea is that there is some type of advantage in being a female today with more money, power, and freedom to make choices."
Today, women can have an advantage if they apply their overall knowledge, skills and abilities to succeed in life. All women are emotional and sometimes their feelings get in the way of the choices they make. As women mature they become aware of their power and freedom to make choices. For example younger women (20-30) are still learning how to survive and will make stupid choices concerning money and relationships by not finishing their education, having kids, etc.. Some women are able to overcome these choices and live a good lifestyle. Older women (35-50) have experience and knowledge and will use that to take advantage of their freedom of choice. Most women know money and power does not make you happy. The choices women make (family, career, relationship, etc.) determine who they are and how happy she can be in her life.

Ummm, the reason women are waiting longer to get married is because men aren't asking as soon, if ever. Until women start doing the asking, then they aren't the ones making all the decisions about waiting. Just another myth perpetrated on people.
If a man doesn't produce a ring and ask, is she getting married? No.
April 11th, 2012
9:23 am
@Jeff: If she says "no", is the man getting married????
All kidding aside, your statement that men aren't asking as soon is true. But you failed to mention that more people (men and women!) are attending college and pursuing secondary degrees than ever before. Added to this is the desire to establish a career and stability. So yes, men are asking later, but women aren't ready to be asked.

Lily "As it relates to salaries and fairing different, I don't fret over that either"
Whaaaat??? You should. Why should women be paid less than men for the same work? I very much object to that. It's not right.
As to whether women have a sexual advantage, haven't we always? Did you know that women ultimately got the right to vote not by picketing and complaining, but by HOLDING OUT at home. No vote, no puddy. Those women of yesteryear understood their sexual advantage.
Jeff ~ good point. I doubt many women are willing to propose. I sure wouldn't. It's just not my part to do so.
April 11th, 2012
9:40 am
LOL at this one!!!
The truth is Women have ALWAYS had the advantage when it comes to sex…..Always have and most likely always will!!!! Don't believe me??? Go out and count the numebr of guys that are making every effort to hook up then just try to find the number of women doing the same….. You know what, you will not find that woman, becfause if she wants to, all she has to do is say the word, so she is never looking for more than a second……. As my dad use to say . " With men it is IF, with women its WHEN"…….

Good morning all,
I love everything about Lily's post Couldn't have said it any better. I didn't hear anything negative nor a take down. I didn't hear her say she's happy to make less than men.
Lady – I'm digging the "order of service."
I'm the woman God created and happy to thrive in that role. For me that means progressing, doing better, making my own money, being independant, etc. Even so, it does not negate the fact that I need men. All of you (men), everywhere. I need my SO, my daddy, my bothers, my nephews, my neighbors, pastors, community workers….all of them.
I don't need to prove ever that I'm just as strong or just as equal or just as qualified. Men that are men already know and understand the role. They are atuned to the purpose she serves that it's never been beneath them. It's not about doing him one better or vice versa, it's about coming together as one, as a whole whether in relationships or by humanity.
I don't need to have tons of sexual escapades to prove my empowerment. I don't need to dangle the carrot (being sex) to get what I need. IMO that's game playing. Empowered women don't play games. I don't need to hold out as bait. If there's an issue that calls for such, so be it but not under the guise of game playing or baiting.
I believe (and in my opinion), too much woman trying to play the role of man and operate as man and play like man will eventually have an adverse effect.
ITL – Love your response regarding women not being ready. I'll add that some of the empowerment women now possess is because of the lack of presence from men. IMO this only evolve and turned positive for women overall and everywhere.

Into the light (9:23). Actually women are beginning to dominate college and post-grad enrollment. So,if anything, more and more women are extending their education, not men.
But it is still a myth that the only reason women aren't getting married is because they are the ones who are deciding to wait. If men are asking at the same rate, and at the same age as previous generations and women were saying no, then it would be valid that women are waiting. But let's put that myth to rest.
April 11th, 2012
10:55 am
Morning All!
I heard this discussion on the Bert Show. Interesting. I like Lily's post though, except while I don't spend alot of time worrying about it, equal pay for equal work is only right and fair.
I have no desire to be or behave like a man when it comes to the birds & the bees. I embrace my womanhood. The beautiful thing about it today is that I have choices women did not have in the past. It's a beautiful thing. I can go the traditional route or the modern route or some of both. I choose both! I am a lovely mixture of it all. It's necessary to be able to change in this changing world.
As for marriage, it's all about finding someone who compliments you, shares the same values and is supportive of your dreams, whatever they might be. There is someone for everyone out there! Don't knock other people because they choose to go about it different than you would or what you are used to.
April 11th, 2012

I totally agree with Lily's early morning post…
Sexually empowered? Did I miss something? When did women ever lose their sexual-power? You have to FIRST be sexually weak to be empowered. I think the better question would be "Are women more sexually promiscuous?"
If the woman is sexually promiscuous with many men (non-committed relations), then yea she sexually weak, because she's not in her lane; playing it like a man. sexual advantage over men, yeah right, don't make me laugh..advantage over little boys maybe, but men nope!

CHARLESTON, WV (AP) — A new report shows fewer West Virginians are getting health insurance through their employer.
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation report released Thursday says about 59 percent of West Virginia residents got their insurance through a job in 2011. That's down from 64 percent in 2000.
Foundation officials say higher costs translate to fewer employers offering insurance coverage, and fewer employees accepting it when it is offered.
They say that's why it is so important that people have options for purchasing affordable health insurance that meets their needs.
Researchers say factors like decreases in overall employment and rising premium costs contributed to the declines.
The report was prepared by researchers at the University of Minnesota's State Health Access Data Assistance Center.

Emergency NumbersPhone Book (Must be on-campus or have a valid network account)
Kelsey Koch
Kelsey Koch is an Ambassador who studied abroad in Cork, Ireland
Why did you choose to study abroad and how did you decide on this program?
I chose to study abroad because I wanted a life-changing experience. Living in another country is an opportunity most of us don't get very often, and it's easy to pass it up after graduation. CSB/SJU has already changed and inspired me so deeply, so I approached my study abroad program as a chance to affirm who I already am. I wanted to become more confident, competent, and gain a new perspective about other countries as well as my own. I chose the Cork program because I was looking to push myself. Cork has no in-country adviser, so it forces participants to rely on themselves to make travel plans, succeed academically, and immerse themselves in the host culture. It allows for remarkably individual experiences, which I desired. I also chose Cork because Ireland is a small, naturally beautiful country that's easy to explore through public transportation, and the month-long break in classes during April allows participants to plan a backpacking trip across Europe. Such an experience is on most peoples' bucket lists, and I was eager to get the opportunity to do it.
Briefly describe a specific cultural experience you had on your trip that made a lasting impression.
My goal during my semester abroad was to travel Ireland as much as possible, and I achieved this. I planned all of my weekend trips myself, and my favorite by far was a trip to Galway and the Aran Islands with my friend Callie. We were able to meet so many people and experience so much more by being in a group of two. After arriving at the biggest island, InisMor, we walked a few miles out to a spectacular cliff fort. On our walk back, we met two men who had been traveling to this island together as friends for several years. We spent all night talking to them about traveling, Irish culture, student life, and tradition. Mark and "Kerry from Kerry" were but one of our first experiences meeting Irish people, an introduction to a nation where conversations come easily, charity and humor are a part of daily life, and giving generously of oneself is the basic way of relating to others. As the Irish say, great craic (good conversation, fun, laughs) was had that night. From then on, we felt safe and welcome everywhere we traveled in Ireland.
Describe your overall study abroad experience.
I had an incredible time abroad. I accomplished my goals, saw natural wonders that brought me near tears, and met lifelong friends. I felt reaffirmed as the kind of person I wanted to be, and was able to demonstrate that through the Cork program's independent nature. I think that by not having an adviser in-country, we all took more initiative to construct our own experiences. The most surprising part was our group dynamics. The 20 of us from CSBSJU in Cork were never forced to hang out or travel together, but immediately we came to rely on ourselves as a group. We were each other's' resources, and we never stopped communicating ideas, questions, travel plans, suggestions, and study sessions. We also had a remarkable amount of fun getting to know each other and becoming friends. I can honestly say we had no major conflicts and that I got to know everyone well. I am so proud of us for that, and I think it says a lot about the Bennie-Johnnie culture here.
Based on your experiences abroad, what are some of the benefits of spending a semester abroad? How has studying abroad contributed to your personal, academic, and professional development?
Academically, I got to experience a completely new university and structure. It was nice to try out big classes and lecture halls since we don't have much of that at CSBSJU. But I think the greatest benefit of studying abroad is becoming a more well-rounded person with an international perspective. The US can breed for some a sheltered and isolated view of the outside world. In an increasingly globalized market and network of professionals, it's essential to understand yourself not as the only country in the world but as a country within the context of many others. Cultural differences in food, language, and social conduct are not wrong, but simply different. Then again, one of the most wonderful realizations I came to while abroad was that even among seemingly endless cultural differences, people of all nations are the same in basic aspirations towards love, friendship, family, and happiness.
What advice can you offer for CSB/SJU students who are considering or planning to study abroad?
You can always work it in! Semester-long programs are the best for immersion purposes, but if you have a major that doesn't give you time to take a semester off, you can still see the world. We have great May term programs. I heard there is one in Spain specifically for nursing students since they traditionally can't study abroad. So, never give up! Keep looking at your options! Besides that, I really love sharing about my time abroad and helping people decide and prepare to go. I know that no family member or friend could possibly want to hear everything I've learned or have to say, so I want to be an ambassador because I feel I can be a great resource to anyone thinking about Ireland or even traveling in Europe.

The thing is ridiculously expensive to replace (50$!), so much that I'm considering buying a 2012 RLT MoCo DNA damper (80$) to replace the stock Blackbox MoCo. [B]So : Is the 2012 RLT MoCo unit OK to use with the 2011 dual flow rebound unit? ... Read More »
Revelation RLT vs. Fox Float 34 - having trouble deciding
I'm building up a new Turner Burner (140mm rear travel) and am having a hard time deciding on the fork. I'm down to either the Revelation RLT or the Fox Float 34, both at 150mm. The Fox is about a 1/2-pound heavier but in theory should be stiffer with the 34mm stanchions. I'd like to save the wei ... Read More »

Two boys missing in Howard County, Arkansas have been found alive along the banks of the Cossatot River, which empties into Gillham Lake northeast of DeQueen.
Arkansas State Police had been searching for the 11-year-old Preston Pierce of Queen City and 10-year-old Joseph Clark of Ashdown in the Gillham Lake area after they went floating down the Cossatot River from the campground where they were staying and never returned.
The Cossatot River is known as a difficult whitewater stream to canoeists and kayakers.
Family members grew concerned when the boys still hadn't shown up by around 7 p.m. Search crews were assembled and the search continued through the night and into Thursday morning.
They were finally spotted by a ground search crew around 9 a.m. near a wooded area along riverbank about a mile and a half down the river from the campground. "They were sitting down with their life jackets still on," says Howard County Sheriff Deputy Bryan McJunkins, "and they did what they what they needed to do to save their lives last night."
An Arkansas State Police helicopter helped guide a crew in a canoe out to the bank where the boys were stranded and brought them to safety. Both boys were checked out by paramedics and found to be unharmed after spending the night on the riverbank, fending off snakes.
"The scariest part was probably when it was getting dark and we started hearing noises and we didn't know what they were and we freaked out," recalls Joseph.
"I thought I was going to die," says Preston.
The boys told police they were floating down the river in their life jackets Wednesday, when they became caught in the currents and got carried further downstream than planned.
The boys say they had just met at the campgrounds, where they were staying at neighboring sites. They say the experience bonded them and they'll likely remain lifelong friends.

Mahler: Symphony No.8 - "Symphony Of A Thousand" - 4785006
. . . I had a near out-of-body experience while listening to a 1971 Decca LP set, taped in Vienna's Sofiensaal, with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra led by its legendary maestro Sir Georg Solti and featuring strong vocal soloists and great choruses . . . [now] we are treated to a High Fidelity Pure Audio Blu-ray . . . [with eight principal soloists] as well Viennese choruses, there is no shortage of vocal fire power on stage. The performers are further stoked to a proverbial white-heat state by the often-frenetic baton of conductor Solti, making this performance one that will keep listeners on the edges of their respective seats throughout . . . [this release] truly benefits from this newer audio format. While the recording industry has moved on considerably since 1971, this was one whale of a performance then and remains so to this day.
Heading to that desert island? Don't forget to pack this one . . . Solti has held up over the years as a disc that, like his Wagner "Ring", really sets so many standards in so many departments. And since this was not a surround sound issue to begin with, this is the perfect treatment for this re-release, sounding better than it ever has -- and it was always good. For me another desert island pick, obligatory.
The organ and chorus explode at the beginning, and the massive climaxes of "Veni, creator spiritus" are unprecendented on a recording. The orchestral interlude opening Part Two has searing intensity. As recorded here, Mahler's delicate orchestration in Part Two is revealed with startling clarity. Solti never lets the music drag or unravel and his urgency holds it together without ever seeming to be episodic . . . The finale is simply overwhelming. Add to all of that, probably the finest group of soloists ever assembled for this work, and you have arguably the greatest Mahler recording of all time. All of it comes together as never before on this Blu-ray audio disc.
