Needs More Sparkly Pens (Part 1)/ We Need To Talk About Sparkly Pens (Part 2)** by mm_coconut, General Audience then Mature. Crack. [You will probably die from laughter, trust me.]
Stiles leaves leaves a notebook of his at Derek's or in his car or whatevs, and Derek goes to take it to him and notices that it's filled with little hearts with Stiles+Derek, and Stiles Hale, and Derek Stilinski, and tons of doodles of little wolves.
Less than 1k:
Leave Your Window Open* by Moriartied, Teen, 1-k. [Basically awwwww, and it received an honorable mention at the mtv fanfic contest.]
Stiles has nightmares, Derek comforts him.
1k to 5k:
Is It Cool if I Hold Your Hand* by HalfFizzBin, General, 1+k. [I really like this author…]
"So," says Sheriff Stilinski, raising one eyebrow. "You decided not to play video games at Scott's, after all?""Uh," Stiles says. His eyes are wide and caught-out, and he's got his arms wrapped around two giant tubs of popcorn. Beside him, Derek Hale—the same Derek Hale that the Sheriff last saw in his interrogation room—is handing a $20 bill to the cashier and clearly trying to appear as casual as possible. He fumbles the change three times before he gets it into his pocket, though, so it's a lost cause.
Nothing Like the Sun* by HalfFizzBin, Teen, 1+k. AU (poet!Derek, editor!Stiles), fluff.
Your eyes, blue and bright / Like Mountain Frost Gatorade," Stiles reads aloud, not bothering to contain his glee. "Now that is powerful stuff. Oh, but this next line is my favorite: Your skin, warm and soft / As an underbaked loaf of bread. Bread, Derek? Really?"(Or, the one where Derek is a failtastic poet and Stiles is the editor who likes him anyway.)
Homework with Stiles by timelord-warlock-hunter-stiles, Explicit, 1+k. PWP, established relationship, humour.
Derek has a few ideas to get Stiles to do his homework.
[Not Not!Fic] Treed!Stiles/Fireman!Derek* by fire_juggler, Teen, 1+k. AU (No werewolves), Doofus!Scott. [Cute ><".]
Stiles gets trapped in a tree. Derek is the one who rescues him. IDEK.
Hardhearted, Don't Worry (I'm Ready for a Fight) (podfic)* by MariaDeLuca, Not rated (but I'd say Teen), 2-K (0h15). Fluff, established relationship. [It's beautifully written and it is so… true T_T.]
Derek makes his home in Stiles.
Got 'til It's Gone by Saucery, Explicit, 2+k. PWP, Phone Sex, Established Relationship. [Great and hot!]
Stiles and Derek have phone-sex while Stiles is away at college.
Winter Winds (Part 1)**/ Sigh No More (Part 2)* by gangnamstiles, T, 2+k. Angst, fluff. [Feeeeeeeeeeeeeelssss *.*]
Two-Shot Slow Burn Romance.
Your X is equal to my Y by pixiestixs, Teen, 2+k. Humour, texting.
Stiles is bored at school, and a bored Stiles is never a good thing. Especially when it involves bugging Derek.
Violets are blue* by HalfFizzBin, Teen, 3-k. AU, humour, fluff. [Dying of cuteness.]
PROMPT—"Derek the super cranky florist delivery guy (it's the family business!) and Stiles the underemployed, overeducated, bored as fuck receptionist. and obviously Stiles works with Allison, whose besotted fiance is always sending her flowers." With helpless crushes, stealthy pizza dates, Jenga, and overly-subtle declarations of intent.
I'm Coming Over Tonight by Emmie (burntotears), Explicit, 3+k. PWP, crack.
Derek comes to Stiles' house with every intention of having sex but Stiles' dad is home and Stiles is not okay with that idea what-so-ever. But Derek has very convincing arguments…
(500) Days of Sitting In Front of The Computer (podfic) by Altrutix, Teen, 4+k. Future!fic. [Nice, lighthearted.]
The boy, Stiles Stilinski, had always been into MMORPGs. The other boy, Ithuriel, had always been into MMORPGs as well, albeit secretly. The Alpha, Derek Hale, was possibly the object of Stiles's affections. One day, Stiles met Ithuriel. But be warned, this is not a tragedy in which Derek Hale saves Stiles's virtue from Ithuriel. That would be ridiculous. This is a love story.
Little Red* by ashinan, Explicit, 4+k. PWP, first time, RedHoodie!Kink. [Really, really, really hot. Like you will seriously need ice while reading.]
Stiles did research. He has PowerPoints. And a red hoodie. Derek was going to cave eventually.
It's Been Four Hundred and Ninety Days* by korynnvictoria, Teen, 4+k. Break-up, angst, future!fic.
It's been four hundred and ninety days, and it took Derek forever but they're at day one again.
Sunshine (Walking On)* by JenNova, Teen, 4+k. Future!Fic. [Derek has a good day, Derek has a GOOD day, DEREK HAS A FUCKING GOOD DAY FOR ONCE.]

Survival Strategies and Interior Design* by alocalband, General Audiences, 5-k. Fluff.
It takes Derek a lot longer than it should to realize what Stiles is doing.
5k to 10k:
Let's Start a War (A Nuclear War) by Saucery, Teen, 5+k. Possessive!Derek, OC/Stiles.
The obligatory gay bar story. Stiles gets hit on and Derek goes berserk. Meanwhile, Scott is all-knowing and Danny is awesome.
Knotting Expectations* by chase_acow, NC-17, 6-k. Knotting, Non-con. [Honestly I loved it, but it's not a love story. Here Derek is a manipulative guy that fucks Stiles with no mercy, a Stiles who fantasizes about that but clearly says no a couple of times. It's more a story about abusive relationships than just sex imo.]
Stiles gets an eyeful and suddenly getting up close and personal to a werewolf is all he can think of.
Taking Off The Edges* by Ark, Explicit, 8+k. Angst, friendship, Bottom!Derek.
Scott's regard turning completely away hurts more than the wounded, incredulous eyeballing. He's bright red to the tips of his ears, and his hands are balled up tight into fists. "Tell me what the hell you were going to tell me, then," Scott says. He's not looking at Stiles anymore, so Derek's the one who answers.
"That we're paired," says Derek, calmly and decisively, from over Stiles's shoulder.
Build an Ivory Tower* by teot, Explicit, 8+k. Knotting, dub-con. [Pretty disturbing but still hot.]
Stiles didn't know how Derek sleeping on his floor developed into sleeping in his bed, or how cuddling ended up turning into Derek humping his ass. He didn't agree to being knotted in the school locker room, either. But what can you do when Derek Hale wants something? He's the Alpha, after all.
10k to 15k:
A Cookie For Your Heart by Allyarra, T, 11+k. AU (the fire at the Hale's house never happened), humor. [Nice and cute.]
Stiles is in college and he's working at Laura Hale's bakery for the summer in an AU where the fire never happened and the Hales are all alive.
Desperate But Not Serious* by sofonisba_found, Explicit, 13+k. AU (Derek is Stiles' college TA), future!fic, humor, smut, almost PWP.
Stiles is one of the more memorable students in the undergrad Psych class that Derek is assigned to as a TA, and he's not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. But when Derek finds Stiles starring on a certain website, his feelings become much more clear.
Darling It Is No Joke (podfic)* by thehoyden, Explicit, 13+k (1h32). AU (Derek is a werewolf cop), future!fic. [Very funny, sexy and well written.]
The first thing Stiles thinks when he opens the door is that it's not his birthday, but someone has sent him some kind of cop stripper.
15k to 20k:
Bones Straining Under The Weight** by weathervaanes, Explicit, 15+k. Human AU (Derek is a deaf food blogger), food porn.
One of Stiles' favorite things about life is Derek Hale's food blog. He never expects to meet the man in person.
[Not!Fic] Random Craigslist Missed Connections Derek/Stiles Not!Fic of Doom (podfic)** by fire_juggler, Teen, 17+K (1h53). AU (Werewolves are known), hurt/confort, fluff and angst. [So funny, so cute, so PERFECT!!!! The podfic is of an incredible quality btw.]
An AU in which Stiles is lonely and addicted to the Missed Connections page on Craigslist, Derek is a hermit with a persistant sister and Scott gives unexpectedly good relationship advice.
Slipping Away (revised version)** by Allyarra, T, 17+k. Established relationship (but not that important), major character death. [It's magnificient, it worth it but be careful, it's really, really sad, one of the saddest things I have ever read actually.]
The summer before senior year Stiles is diagnosed with leukemia.
More than 20k:
Open the Door (podfic)** by Renay, Teen, 25-k (2h44). Post-season 1, flangst. [I thought at the end I was going to cry just because of all the fluff *.*]
Derek gives Stiles his jacket.
DILF (podfic)** by twentysomething, Explicit, 30+k (3h24). AU (Derek takes care of Laura's children, Scott and Jackson, since she died and Stiles is Scott's teacher). [Very frustrating until the end but funny, well written and soo cuuute *.*]
Today is Scott's first day of kindergarten and Derek is terrified.
Cupboard love (podfic)** by mklutz, Gen (food porn though), 32k+ (3h17). Human AU, Stiles prepares meals to pay college and Derek is his client. [Do not, I repeat, do not read this if you are hungry.]
He's carefully balancing the sandwiches and the two biggest tupperware containers he could find that both had functioning lids when the front door opens and he almost drops everything right there in front of the stupid fountain. If that's Derek Hale, he's definitely not a mountain man.
Mating Habits of the Domesticated North American Werewolf** by lielabell, Mature, 35+k. Future!fic (it's a 20 year long story), flangst. [Kinda destroyed my heart, beautiful, even if I felt that the characters were (maybe it's me) a bit OOC.]
Derek doesn't do pining. He doesn't. So when it becomes clear that Stiles is much more interested in having Derek as a new best friend than a boyfriend, he puts on his big boy pants and makes it fucking work. He becomes the best goddamn friend a spastic teenager could ever hope to have.
Stiles Are You Queer?* by talktowater, Explicit, 59+k. AU (No werewolves, they all live near a wealthy beach. Lydia, Erica, Stiles and Derek are gay.).
A Teen Wolf AU, where an eighteen year old Stiles is oblivious and angst ridden but somehow manages to score with everyone. Derek is older and super hot but he sucks at communicating mostly because he's even more messed up than Stiles. Lydia is the coolest girl friend ever, Papa Stilinksi is super huggable as usual and Scott is a bit dopey but entirely lovable.
The Skies Above Are Blue by Trelkez, Mature, 95+k (WIP). Human AU, kind of a sitcom feel, wip but still a good read.
Derek is a wedding DJ. Stiles just happens to go to a lot of weddings.
Prince Among Wolves** by tylerfucklin, Explicit, 101k. AU where Stiles babysits Derek twin kids. [Not much to say except perfection and A+ for the character of Andy, Derek's trans daughter.]
Looking for full day/evening sitter. 2 twin boys age 4. Must have exp. w/werewolves. Must be human. No pedophiles. No teenage girls. Pay negotiable.
(I will post generally the link to the first part only unless it's a series that can be read in whatever order.)
I'm In Love, Accidentally* by Altrutix (WIP), Teen, 12+k. AU, mates, Jackson/Danny, Chris/Laura. [Surprisingly loved the Jackson/Danny as much as the Sterek in this one, really nice.]
In a world where the Hale pack survives, Peter Hale marries Melissa McCall, Scott has a younger brother named Jackson, and Isaac Lahey is Derek Hale's adopted son, Stiles is just a kindergarten teacher hopelessly in love with his favorite student's hot, single dad. Who may or may not be Derek Hale.
Part 1: It's a Wonderful Surprise (podfic), 4+k.
[Well… it disappeared apparently. The link for the podfic is still on though.]
Far, Far Away by Saucery (WIP), 17+k. [Haven't read everything, just the first two, so I will rec only these.]
A series of fannish riffs of popular fairy tales. Or, the series in which Stiles and Derek find each other in a multiplicity of different ways, in increasingly ludicrous realities.
Part 1: Red (podfic)*, Mature, 1-k. Stiles probably shouldn't wear red hoodies. Just saying.
How to Date Your Best Friend's Brother by veterization, Explicit, 37+k. Human AU (Scott and Derek are brothers), Underage.
Scott's brother Derek gets surprisingly hot when he comes back from college. Stiles, and his hormones, deal with this new development less than gracefully.
Milkshakes and Matchsticks* by entanglednow, Teen, 52+k. [Every part of the series is like a chapter, no use for me to post all the links.]
The Rory to My Amy series** by linksofmemories, Explicit, 163+k. AU (Derek is Scott's brother), Doctor Who references. [Awesome, the first part is one of the best things ever.]
Boredom, My Old Enemy by werewolfsaz, Explicit, 1-k. Established relationship, phone sex, Top!Dylan (kinda…).
He was bored and his phone looked like a good idea. Hoechlin was probably asleep but he was going to amuse the younger man whether he liked it or not.
All the World is Birthday Cake, So Take a Piece by popfly, Explicit, 1+k. Established relationship.
Dylan has the best birthday ever.
Sextin With Hoechlin by qhuinn (tekla), Explicit, 2-k. Phone sex, established relationship.
Prompt by shutupbolinski: "Tyler pining while Dylan is filming in Atlanta for The Internship". Missallisonloves added 'sexting' to the idea.
feet (ain't) on the floor by hito, Teen, 3+k.
Dylan opens the bathroom door and shuffles onwards into the morning, then lifts his head into Hoechlin's chest and leaps backwards with a muffled shriek.
Teeth* by GoddessofBirth, Mature, 3+k.
That photoshoot, a bar, and Dylan having a mental freakout. Also, tumblr, meta ponderings, and admission of the Sterek.
Smile Lines** by Tuai, Teen, 8+k. Translated from spanish. [It's really beautiful.]
The thing about Hoechlin is that he never stops laughing. And that's freaky, because he doesn't have the kind of face you picture laughing; but he actually doesn't stop doing it, and it's hard to catch him without a smile, cheeks all dimples, eyes surrounded by smile lines.
Carly Rae Jepsen series* by Emmie (burntotears), 10-k (complete).
Part 1: Call Me Maybe, Teen, 4+k.
Hoechlin sees the video of Dylan dancing on the set of "The Internship" and realizes how much he misses him. A lot of texting and phone conversations ensue, along with some very awkward revelations.
Part 2: Always a Good Time, Mature, 5+k.
Reblogging for major update.

ARLINGTON, Texas – After
This is the best game Romo has ever played.
And after Romo threw an interception that ended up giving Peyton Manning and the Broncos the ball with prime position to win this game, I again thought about Romo's performance:
Yep, still the best game Romo has ever played.
I know, I know. You can scream and shout that a quarterback simply can't throw the ball right there in that situation. You'd be right. You are right. Romo knows it. But at the same time, he's got to make a play. Lord knows the defense isn't going to stop anyone, especially Manning, who had just marched the field to tie the score once again. Romo knew this game was no different than any other in the last five years – he had to go win it.
But that's what this guy is. He's a gunslinger. You could see it from the very first drive of the game. He was ducking and dipping and dodging and doing Romo-things. This was an old-fashion shootout in the Wild, Wild (South) West and Romo and Manning were trading shots all day long. Manning was Manning. And Romo was Romo. They played themselves in this Western and it played out in the end like we all pretty much expected.
Now, getting there was a surprise. I don't think anyone could've imagined Romo passing for a Cowboys single-game record of 506 yards and five touchdowns while playing step for step with the NFL's best. In fact, Romo was even outdueling his counterpart for most of the game.
But then … it happened. And it's happened before. For three-and-a-half quarters, everything Romo was touching was turning into gold. But with the game on the line, his luck runs out and he throws a pick trying to force it into
Just like that, Romo's best game of his career ends with an interception and a 51-48 loss to the Broncos.
Really? The best game of his career? In my opinion, you're damn right it was. And at least I've got some pretty good company to support it.
And that's true. Romo led that entire team in nearly beating an opponent that will probably hoist the Super Bowl trophy when this season is said and done.
Romo haters are going to … hate this. Even the ones that really, really want to support this guy but are tired of the "same old story" will probably not see it this way. I'm sorry, this is the problem I've had with this team for about three years now, and it reared its head once again. Until this football team can find ANY OTHER way to win a game than on Romo's right arm and his legs, then stuff like this is going to happen.
The very reason the Cowboys even had a chance to beat Denver was because of their scrambling, risk-taking, ball-chunking quarterback who was playing as well as he's ever played. The only way the Cowboys were able to come back from a 15-point deficit was Romo putting the team on his back and refusing to stop. He fired it around all day to guys like
For a while, we were thinking Romo was going to keep the Cowboys somewhat close. Then, we started to realize they had a chance to compete for the win in this game. And before we knew it, Romo checked out of a run to find Cole Beasley open in the flat for a touchdown to give his team a 48-41 lead.
Tony Romo was winning this game.
But after the Cowboys defense once again couldn't stop Manning and allowed the game-tying score, it was back on Romo's shoulders again. That's when the game got a little weird.
Now, let's not make any excuses about Romo's interception. He threw it. It wasn't his best throw at all. With pressure in his face, he didn't get enough on the throw and forced it in there. Denver's Danny Trevathan then makes the play of his life.
But what happened before that was interesting. After Romo was brought down on a sack on first down (which some of the players in the locker room were asking why that wasn't a horse collar, and I really have no answer to that), but surprisingly enough, the clock stopped for about 10 seconds. The play-clock never stopped and therefore the Cowboys snapped the ball at 2:04. It seems like the two-minute warning would've and should've occurred before that play.
Again, that's NOT an excuse for Romo's pick. But yet just another unfortunate situation that marred this game.
For those who like Tony but think he chokes in the end, this game is right up your alley. I can admit Romo hasn't played his best in the clutch games or clutch moments. But like I've said here already, and thousands of times before, you have to give this guy help or this team will not win.
Even Manning has help. He's got a running back who can provide some balance. Knowshon Moreno had 150 yards from scrimmage, including 93 on the ground.
I know Romo will be blamed heavily for that interception and in some ways he should. But if you watched this game at all, you know he was at his very best. Not just for him, but for any Dallas Cowboy quarterback who has ever played. Don Meredith, Roger Staubach, Danny White, Troy Aikman or any of Romo's previous games … no one had ever thrown for more than 500 yards in one game. And the way he was doing it seemed to be even more amazing.
Honestly, this is Romo. It seems like we've been hearing all week that he needs to take more shots. Well, he did. And for the most part, it was working for him. But guess what, 506 yards and five touchdowns still wasn't enough. And he had to keep doing it.
I'm sorry, but when your quarterback does that, you should win. You should have a blowout win. If your ace pitcher goes nine perfect innings and it's still 0-0 in the 10th and then he gives up a homer, does he get ridiculed? I doubt it. At some point, a perfect game should be enough. And yes, Tony Romo played a perfect game against one of the best quarterbacks to ever lace them up.
It wasn't enough. He needed to do more and with that, the Cowboys are now 2-3.Call it a choke job by Romo. I call it the best game he's played. With anything, the reality of it all is probably somewhere in between. Sure, you'd like to see your quarterback not make that throw in the final minute. But after what he had done the previous 58, he should've never been forced to.

Although most any vegetable that grows underground is frequently categorized as a root vegetable, true root vegetables include only taproots and tuberous roots. These vegetables are actual functioning roots. Bulbs, corms, rhizomes, and tubers all resemble roots, but are not actually plant roots in their own right. The difference is largely one of biological distinction, and vegetables in these classes are often lumped with true root vegetables for simplicity if nothing else.
True root vegetables are themselves the roots of plants. They grow beneath the soil, and their function is to deliver nutrients directly to the leafy greens above ground. This nutrient-carrying capacity makes the roots very healthful for humans. The roots are typically full of vitamins and minerals, and for this reason are often considered a "superfood."
There are two categories of root vegetables: taproots and tuberous roots. Taproots include carrots, rutabagas, beets, radishes, and salsify. Vegetables in the tuberous root family include yams, sweet potatoes, ginger, and cassava.
Root-like vegetables such as potatoes, taro, arrowroot, onions, and garlic fall outside of the true root vegetable family because they do not themselves make up the root of their attached plant. All of these organisms support the nutrition of the larger plant, but they do so as outgrowths of the plant's true roots or as stem modifications. These plants have other independent root structures that are not usually edible.
The nutrient content of these quasi-root vegetables is unchanged, however. Corms like arrowroot, rhizomes like taro, tubers like white potatoes, and vegetable bulbs like onions and garlic all serve as feeding packs of sorts for the growing plant. This means that they, like true root vegetables, are full of vitamins, minerals, and other growth-promoting substances.
Most roots and root-like vegetables are also high in carbohydrates, however. A lot of what plants need for energy is sugars and starches. Root vegetables are typically very starchy vegetables. They provide a lot of needed vitamins, but they are also quickly converted to sugar once ingested.
Nutritionists debate the value of eating heavy servings of root vegetables when other food sources are available. In the developing world, however, root vegetables are often lauded as a miracle food. The vegetables are easy to harvest and grow in almost all climates. They store well for long periods of time and do not quickly spoil. Above all else, they provide a bounty of nutrition to people who are not otherwise getting much to eat and provide far more nutrients than basic staples like rice or other grains.
There are many different ways of preparing root vegetables. Some, like carrots, can be eaten raw, but others are usually cooked before serving. Roots can be baked or grilled, roasted or fried. They can be made into soups or added to salads. There is really no wrong way to cook or serve a root vegetable.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

What your looks say about your health
Good Looks, Good Health?
Good health often is reflected in an attractive, youthful appearance. So you might be tempted to blame aging and stress for facial lines, unsightly fingernails, or hair loss when, in fact, these flaws can signal underlying health issues, says integrative medicine specialist Molly M. Roberts, MD, of the Institute for Health & Healing, in San Francisco, and president of the American Holistic Medical Association.
Swollen Feet
Tired Eyes
Bags and dark circles under the eyes are typically a telltale sign of one too many late nights (and not enough sleeping in). But if you're getting plenty of shut-eye and still can't shake the basset-hound look, you might want to take a look at your diet.
Eye bags and puffiness are caused by fluid buildup in the thin, loose skin that sits below your bottom eyelid. Lots of things -- from allergies to crying jags -- can cause fluid to accumulate there, but one of the main culprits is eating too much salt. High-sodium foods promote water retention throughout the body, and the sensitive under-eye area is no exception.
Dry Skin
Everyone experiences dry skin from time to time. Usually it's a minor nuisance caused by wintry air or overly hot showers, but in some cases parched, brittle skin is a sign of dehydration or serious health problems. Hypothyroidism and diabetes can both leach moisture from the skin, for instance, as can nutrient deficiencies associated with a poor diet or eating disorders.
Atherosclerosis, the narrowing of arteries that leads to heart disease, can affect skin as well -- especially on the feet, legs, and shins. If the tiny arteries that carry blood to the extremities become blocked, they can deprive the skin of oxygen, producing dry, shiny patches.
Body Hair
Hair where you don't want it is embarrassing for sure, but it also can be a sign of more concerning health problems.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common cause of increased hair growth in women of childbearing age, can cause infertility and infrequent, irregular, or absent periods. More than 70% of women with PCOS have hirsutism, or excess hair growth, typically appearing on the face, chest, stomach, back, hands, or feet.

The best journalistic instincts of Fox's news people kicked in and the hard reality of Mr. Obama's triumph was allowed to land as it occurred. In doing so, the network avoided marginalizing itself and ended, at least for a night, its war on the president.
Watching a news show transparently at war with itself made for extraordinary live television.

Men's Health
Could Red Wine Supplement Block Exercise Benefits?
By Mary Elizabeth Dallas
HealthDay Reporter
THURSDAY, July 25 (HealthDay News) -- Although some antioxidants may be good, more may not be better. New research suggests that resveratrol, a natural antioxidant found in red grapes and products derived from them -- such as red wine -- could offset the health benefits of exercise in older men.
The study involved 27 healthy but inactive men, all nonsmokers around 65 years old. The University of Copenhagen researchers had the men engage in high-intensity exercise, which included full-body circuit training, for a total of eight weeks.
During this time, half of the participants were given 250 milligrams (mg) of resveratrol daily. The rest of the men received a placebo pill that contained no active ingredients. Neither the researchers nor the men involved in the study knew if they were taking resveratrol or the dummy pill.
Although physical activity improved the men's heart health, the study, published online July 22 in the Journal of Physiology, revealed that resveratrol supplements counteracted the positive effects of exercise on blood pressure, levels of fat in the blood and the capacity of the body to transport and use oxygen.
The men who took the placebo pills had lower blood pressure and concentrations of LDL or "bad" cholesterol and triglycerides in their blood following the eight weeks of exercise.
Resveratrol supplementation combined with physical activity, however, eliminated the reduction in blood pressure and blood fats, and led to a significantly lower increase in the amount of oxygen delivered to muscles during exercise.
The researchers also found that resveratrol did not affect the progression of atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. Their findings "add to the growing body of evidence questioning the positive effects of resveratrol supplementation in humans," they wrote.
Why this happened, however, remains unclear. "This is the million-dollar question, and the truth is that we don't know," said study corresponding author Lasse Gliemann, a doctoral student. "But one argument could be that free radicals (those removed by the antioxidants), although deleterious to cells when in excess, could be important in stimulating the training response. Thus, lots of antioxidants would remove all the free radicals and hence remove some of the training response."
Relatively high doses of antioxidants have not been effective in a number of larger clinical trials on a number of topics, said Dr. Michael Joyner, a physiologist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
"Some people think you need at least a bit of oxidative stress to trigger or stimulate exercise training responses," Joyner said. "The same thing is true for inflammation. Too much is bad, but some might be required for normal physiological signaling."
In short, free radicals, which are thought to contribute to inflammation, aging and disease, may actually be necessary to trigger the body's healthy responses to exercise. So when it comes to antioxidants, how much is too much? Study co-author Gliemann said that more research is needed to answer that question.

The Economic Impact of Armed Conflict in Rwanda
AbstractThe human, social and economic costs of Rwanda's genocide have been staggering. The losses in life cannot be reversed and the psychological impact of the violence will take a long time to heal. The country has made remarkable progress over the last 10 years to get back to where it would have been without the conflict--for example, in terms of trends for basic education and health indicators such as primary enrollment and child mortality. Yet GDP per capita remains much lower than what it would have been without the genocide. The paper proposes a methodology for the estimation and correction of extreme values or outliers and estimates that per capita GDP today would probably be between 25 and 30% higher if the conflict had not taken place.

After extending his own world record with 21 trips to the highest point on the planet, Utah's own Apa Sherpa arrived in Salt Lake City on Wednesday. Apa, 51, set a world record for the most summits of Mount Everest. On May 11, as he stood at the summit of Mount Everest (29,035 feet above sea level), he broke his own world record for the 10th time.
The 5-foot-4, 120-pound native of Thame, Nepal, in the Himalayan Highlands, moved to Utah in 2006 and lives in Draper with his wife and three children.

I chose the PGY-1 ambulatory care residency at Mayo Clinic because it offers a longitudinal experience in a variety of outpatient settings. I have always valued the opportunity to work with a patient care team that has direct patient interaction.
The residency structure allows me to work directly with patients as well as collaborate with other health care professionals. The preceptors are very supportive of the residents and are focused on tailoring the experience to meet individual career goals.

Capcom |Fighting |News
Even as someone who is into fighting games as a competitive medium, I still find myself strangely excited about this news! This week's issue of Famitsu revealed that Super Street Fighter 4 will see a return of the bonus stages of Street Fighter 2 and Street Fighter 3. The 'wreck the car' bonus stage is practically confirmed, but we have yet to see what other bonus stages will be included.
And, for those of you who were hoping for less kitschy news, we've got some of that, too. When SSF4 was first announced, it was announced that there would be improvements to online play. The Famitsu article also provided the first news of what new online modes we can expect from the new and improved online experience.
First up is the much needed quarter matches. They'll appear in the form of a game mode called "Endless Battle", a lobby mode that allows up to eight players to join. Next up is "Team Battle", which will (unfortunately!) not be a Dramatic Battle mode, a la the Street Fighter Alpha series. Instead, you'll get a group of 2-4 players and pit them against 2-4 other opponents in a team tournament style. Finally, there will be a new "Replay Channel", where one can check out other replays while talking to other players in voice chat (perhaps to discuss or dissect the video), and even save them to your hard drive.
Stay tuned for more developments as they come! Super Street Fighter 4 is slated for a Spring 2010 release for XBox360, PS3, and PC.

Dramatic Battle Mode is the only thing I want out of this game

Alexander McCall Smith
Adult Fiction MCCALL
Summary: From the best-selling author of The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency series comes a delightful and moving story that celebrates the healing powers of friendship and music. It is 1939. Lavender--La to her friends--decides to flee London, not only to avoid German bombs but also to escape the memories of her shattered marriage. The peace and solitude of the small town she settles in are therapeutic . . . at least at first. As the war drags on, La is in need of some diversion and wants to boost the town's morale, so she organizes an amateur orchestra, drawing musicians from the village and the local RAF base. Among the strays she corrals is Feliks, a shy, proper Polish refugee who becomes her prized recruit--and the object of feelings she thought she'd put away forever. Does La's orchestra save the world? The people who come to hear it think so. But what will become of it after the war is over? And what will become of La herself? And of La's heart? With his all-embracing empathy and his gentle sense of humor, Alexander McCall Smith makes of La's life--and love--a tale to enjoy and cherish.

There are four million people and over 200 golf courses in the Houston metropolitan area, which is home to the South Texas GCSA (STGCSA). The chapter has 300 members spread throughout the region. Justin Shulse, chapter president and golf course superintendent of the Houston National Golf Club, is rightfully proud of the programs and services the chapter provides its members. "It's not unusual to have 80 to 100 people at our meetings. This tells me the membership finds value in them," Shulse says.
Committees bring ideas and focusOne way the chapter ensures its programs and services are worthwhile is by using a committee system. The STGCSA has eight committees, all chaired by board members, and ranging in size from three to eight members. The committees are education and scholarship, government relations, meetings, tournament, public relations, membership, historical and information services. The committee members meet once a month and are charged with bringing forth ideas and focus to each committee. The work of the Information Services Committee is a perfect example of how a committee is providing a valuable service to the members of the STGCSA.
New initiativeThe Information Services Committee is focused on providing consistent and targeted messages through the chapter's communication vehicles. The committee uncovers interesting stories for the chapter's newsletter, Tee to Green. It also provides input on everything from web content to the chapter's new letterhead. However, it's the committee's newest initiative that has Chairman Willy Plowman, superintendent at Cypress Lakes Golf Club, excited. The committee has been charged with reaching out to area golf publications to educate the editors on the golf course superintendent profession. "We're happy to report that The Houston Chronicle has recently agreed to run a series of articles highlighting golf course maintenance practices," Plowman said.
"One of the biggest initiatives we have is the outreach efforts of the Information Services Committee," Shulse explains. "Educating the golfing public of our members' competence in the science of golf course maintenance is of the utmost importance to me."
National and grassroots effortsGCSAA has tools and resources that your chapter can take advantage of, too. GCSAA has created an ad that has been placed in various golf publications. GCSAA will work with chapters to include their logo in this ad and place it in local golf publications. An example of the ad has been provided here.Chapters can also visit the media/public relations area on the chapter resources website. Or contact Jeff Bollig, GCSAA Director of Communications at (800) 472-7878.
To share your chapter's success stories, please email them to Leann Cooper.

The Calgary Stampeders have signed import defensive lineman Kevin Dixon.
Dixon played nine games with the Stamps in 2011, including two starts. He recorded 14 tackles, including two tackles for loss, two sacks and one forced fumble. Dixon attended training camp with the Stampeders in 2013 after missing the entire 2012 season with a knee injury.
"Kevin showed great promise as a rookie in 2011 and I know that he has worked extremely hard to get healthy again," said Hufnagel. "I look forward to seeing him back on the field at full strength."
Prior to joining the Stampeders, Dixon attended training camp with the Seattle Seahawks.
"I'm proud to be back with the Stampeders," said Dixon. "I'm so happy to get another chance to play with the team I started my career with and I'm looking forward to getting back on the field again. I'm feeling great and I'm ready to go."

[Well now, I was gone quite a long time. Hello lovelies~]
She thought about it for a long moment. "That sucks—" she trailed off. Family was always a touchy subject, but she hid it well, even from him. She gave a sigh. "So what did you hit him in the face or something?" she asked, a slight smile tugging at her lips. "Cause that's what I would have done."
The smile was impossible to fight back, small and faint, it spread across his face. "I probably should have. Can you imagine his face?" Murtagh shook his head, smile growing. "Nah, I let security take care of him. I guess that's one benefit to all of this. He can't bother me anymore."

I don't put a lot of thought into naming things, mainly because I'm not making my own personal world or anything like that. It's not personal. I do, however, put a lot of ear into names...they have to sound right. If I say it out loud and it sounds dumb then I change a letter here n there and see what it sounds like. I like my random places to have a musical flow to them. When I'm in a creative mood I try to evoke the other senses and when I'm feeling whimsical I like to tickle a rib. So I guess that you could say I like for things to sounds right and I rely on my current emotional state to evoke the names. The metanames (countries, continents, worlds) just pop into my head after I have done all of the other naming...that way it sort of grows or evolves and feels more natural. Oftentimes I'll say to myself that I want this place to sound Russian or Persian or whatever so I make up stuff that sounds that way.
When I do plan things out down to the tiniest detail I know exactly what the people dress like and think like, what they manufacture, what they import/export, what their religion is like, etc. so this makes things easier. For me, when I get stuck or feel non-creative then I'll hit a generator but I never take a word straight from the generator because of the above criteria. Gleitneklsd might come out of a generator but I play with it until I get something like Gleiten or Glettenskold, or if they be hobbits then it's something like Gibbenbotty, orcs would be Nightskull, English would be Glencurry. For me, it's all in the sound.

April 6, 2004
Albany- "It may say read the selection. It may say read the passage. It may say read the summary. All those things mean what? Your story."
Detrich Sanchez has spent weeks going over some of the things that may trip up her third graders next week as the take the Criterion Referenced Competency Test. She also reviews test taking strategies.
"The first thing that I always suggest is to read your questions first, then go and read you story, and read it at least two times," Sanchez reminds her students.
Teachers are also urging parents to help children at home by taking sample tests online found on the Georgia Department of Education web site.
Once you get to the site, click on "student testing," chose the CRCT test for your grade and it will take you to sample tests for your child.
The more comfortable they are with the types of questions on the test the better teachers say they will do.
"A good thing would be to also time them because it is a timed test, so as a result if they get used to being timed at home even with the homework. Then they get used to what 15 minutes feels like, what 20 minutes feels like," says grandmother Joyce Margerum.
That's exactly what she does with her grandson Dominyck every afternoon.
What will be hardest part of the test the nine year old this time?
"The multiplication facts because we have to know those to pass to the 4th grade," he says.
But it's the reading that he and his peers will have to pass to be promoted. It's predicted as many as 26,000 Georgia third graders will fail the state curriculum test, a statistic Dominyck has heard, but says he doesn't buy into.
"That's just their opinion because if you believe and you try hard enough then you can pass it."
Good, sound advice that teachers say all students should take before tackling the test next week.
Teachers also remind parents not forget about two important things that can help your child stay alert during the test., a good night's rest and a hearty breakfast.

A recent strategy I've incorporated into my on a 1st date game when I want to create a quick bond while showing proper social awareness and a bit of a dhv to a girl, is get her talking about her dating horror stories. If you know women at all, you know that this isn't very difficult at all, some of them have even beaten me to the punch, they're really not interested in my stories, they really just want to dish all their bad dates and pick up attempts on someone, all the while secretly gauging your reaction (as girls are always doing). Mostly you are just giving her the thing she wants to do most, gossip and make fun of beta dates and how 'creepy' her dates were. To most of their credit, usually the creepy part comes out of my mouth, this gets her laughing and shows her that I instantly get it, and I'm not one of those guys.
The strategy is simple, and you can use it early in a date to create instant rapport – and while maybe you don't like laughing at the pain of others, or listening to other guys cringe worthy moves it gets her talking, which I'm sure some of you are aware of, can be one of the biggest hurdles in gaming her. You need to get her talking in order to gain access to her emotions, and you need her to relax and open up. While not ground breaking, I use this almost on every date, as girls are usually reserved and nervous with me on a first date like most beta's on a date with a hot babe. Once she opens up to you, she will be more relaxed and you can move off into any direction you seem necessary. The most important aspect of this game is to share at least one horror story of your own, usually mine is referencing a stalker girl, I use this one if the girl I'm with thinks to highly of herself; another one I tell is about awkward first date girl – I use this one if I sense she's gonna be a tough nut to crack, it's a not so subtle instruction to her on how I want her to behave if she wants the date to go well.
It's important for you to not judge her when she's telling the stories, and don't get angered or worked up by anything you hear about the stories she's telling you – some of these stories might normally be red flags for most men, but remember, girls aren't like guys, and no girl, no matter how nice she is, ever keeps things a secret, there is no gentlemen code for girls. Not to mention the date will be over if you're getting annoyed or agitated. The trick is to laugh along with her and show her that you are on a higher social order than the men she's been with. If you are maintaining a proper alpha frame, this can immediately help her bond with you and relax, from then on you are in the driver seat and get her talking about anything you want, and most likely she's been giggling when she tells you the story, or shutters when she thinks of it. After that, you really only need to show her that you're not like those guys, and bam, you are instantly 'different' and you don't have to tell outlandish stories about you got your tribal tattoos by traveling in a small boat around the south pacific in the hunt of a lost treasure. It's an easy trick for her to instantly view as different, and a guy that gets her.
Also, this is a reminder to all you guys out there dating, you will be a story for her to tell, whether it's a good or bad one relies on you. Would you rather be the macho alpha that made her wet from the onset, and she couldn't resist going home with you and taking it like a champ in every hole? Or would you rather be the guy she giggles or shudders about on her other dates? Girls are cruel, you can either sit around hating them or that fact, or you can use it to your advantage.

Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -- Republicans will control the Arkansas Senate in 2013 after sweeping to a majority for the first time since Reconstruction.
In balloting Tuesday, the GOP laid claim to at least 18 of the chamber's 35 seats, giving the party an edge it last saw during a special session in 1874.
Arkansas was the last state in the old Confederacy to never have Republicans control a legislative chamber since the post-Civil War period.
Republicans made steady gains in recent years and closed to a 20-15 gap during a strong GOP showing nationally in 2010. The party will have increased clout when dealing with Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe, who has long enjoyed a high approval rating.
The governor wants to expand Medicaid eligibility under a federal health care law that Republicans generally oppose.

In 2007, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation coordinated with federal and state agencies to obtain the approval to relocate the existing U.S.
202 route designation to the new U.S. 202 Parkway from just south of PA 63 (Welsh Road) to the PA 611 Interchange in Montgomery and Bucks counties.
As shown on the U.S. 202 Redesignation Overview map, the existing streets signed today as U.S. 202 between Route 63 and Route 611 will revert back to
their local street names only as shown on the colored road segments. Please note, that no street addresses including street names or numbers will be
changed with the redesignation.
For residents and motorists, the official start of the U.S. 202 route signing change will coincide with the opening of the new U.S. 202 Parkway in fall
2012. PennDOT plans to initially cover the existing U.S. 202 route signs immediately following the Parkway's opening and then remove the route signs from
DeKalb Pike, Bethlehem Pike, Doylestown Road, West Butler Avenue and East Butler Avenue (located in zip code 18914), West Butler Avenue and East Butler
Avenue (located in zip code 18901), and State Street. The sign for existing "U.S. 202/State Street" at the U.S. 202/PA 611 interchange in Doylestown will
change to "State Street" and signing for the new U.S. 202 Parkway along Route 611 will be placed at the existing cloverleaf interchange where the Parkway
will tie into existing U.S. 202 as shown on the map.
PennDOT has initiated public outreach activities through the U.S. 202 Parkway Task Force to inform municipalities of the upcoming redesignation of U.S.
202 in this area. Additional information on the forthcoming redesignation of U.S. 202 will be disseminated via the media, newsletters, websites and
presentations. As part of this effort, PennDOT will coordinate the route change on its road maps and this information will be used as a source for
updating electronic mapping services. PennDOT's goal is to provide advanced notice to customers who may be affected by the U.S. 202 route designation
change so accommodations can be made prior to the Parkway opening.
If you have comments or questions, please submit them through the U.S. 202 Parkway website – www.us202-700.com.

New York Times columnist David Brooks is the Eddie Haskell of the Fourth Estate. Like the two-faced sycophant in "Leave It to Beaver," Brooks indulges in excessive politeness while currying favor with political authority. He prides himself on an oily semblance of maturity and rational discourse.
But the phony "conservative" back-stabber, who has spent the last four years slavering over Barack Obama like a One Direction groupie and trashing the tea party like an MSNBC junkie, isn't fooling anyone.
Lately, Brooks has been given to dispensing passive-aggressive advice to GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney. His column this week titled "Thurston Howell...

Soppy, and given away in the title
Eric stared at her.
She shook her head, her hair cascading over her shoulders.
"I said no Eric."
Eric bent his head, getting to his feet.
"Why? Don't you love me?"
She smiled.
"Of course I do. But when you screw up, that isn't the answer. You don't propose to say you're sorry."
She reached out and squeezed his hand.
"There are two good reasons to get married. Pregnancy, and actually being ready to get married. Okay?"
Eric nodded, then shot a glance back at her.
"But I – Wait, you're not..?"
She laughed.
"No way. But seriously, think before you act darlin'."
He smiled back, leaning forward to make his lips meet hers.
There were several wolf-whistles, V's protests,
"Get a roooom!", but they ignored it all.
When they broke apart, an audible sigh went around the room. Becki grinned.
"So me and V should get to work."
Eric smiled, waggling a playful finger.
"Ah yes! You have twenty minutes to make up later."
She raised an eyebrow.
"Oh really? If you knew the day I had-"
He smiled, giving her one last kiss.
"I can make a fair approximation."
She grinned, following her sister down to Ballistics.

Saturday marked the debut of a new trolley service in South Louisville along New Cut Road and Southern Parkway [3] between Churchill Downs [4] and Jefferson Memorial Forest [5]. The service is an extension of the previous trolley hop, which began running monthly between July 2012 and May 2013 from Iroquois Park to the municipal urban forest, the largest in the United States.
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., riders could board at marked points along the route to explore the many attractions, shops and restaurants in the area. Major attractions included the Kentucky Derby Museum [6], which offered two-for-one admission to the first 150 riders, Iroquois Park, The Little Loomhouse [7] on Kenwood Hill Road – where the first time "Happy Birthday to You" was sung by the Hill sisters Patty and Mildred – the Fairdale Library [8], and Jefferson Memorial Forest.
The trolley hop was organized by the Auburndale Neighborhood Association [9] with the help of TARC [10] and a Louisville Metro Council Neighborhood Development Fund grant organized by Metro Councilwoman Vicki Welch [11], whose district covers Fairdale and the Jefferson Memorial Forest.
The hop will continue monthly through the summer and fall, with the next trolley service scheduled for Saturday, August 17 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
